Item 1.01

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

As previously reported on Form 8-K filed on April 8, 2015 by EveryWare Global, Inc. (the “Company”), the Company and its domestic subsidiaries (collectively with the Company, the “Debtors”) filed voluntary petitions for relief (the “Bankruptcy Filing”) under Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the United States Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”) in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (the “Court”). The Company concurrently filed a motion with the Court seeking approval of a debtor-in-possession loan facility (the “DIP Term Facility”) and to amend and ratify the Company’s Second Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement dated May 21, 2013 (the “ABL Agreement,” and the related facility, the “ABL Facility”) such that it becomes a debtor-in-possession ABL facility (the “DIP ABL Facility”).

On, April 9, 2015, the Court entered an interim order (the “Interim Order”) authorizing the Debtors to enter into the DIP Term Facility and the DIP ABL Facility. Pursuant to the Interim Order, certain of the Debtors and the other parties thereto entered into a Debtor-in-Possession Term Loan Agreement (the “DIP Term Loan Agreement”) and a Ratification and Amendment Agreement (the “Ratification and Amendment Agreement”), both of which became effective on April 9, 2015. The Interim Order allows the Debtors to immediately access the DIP Term Facility and the DIP ABL Facility; however, both facilities remain subject to entry of a final order by the Court.

The DIP Term Facility

The DIP Term Facility is comprised of a term loan in an aggregate principal amount of up to $40.0 million (the “DIP Term Loan”). Amounts paid or prepaid under the DIP Term Loan cannot be reborrowed. Certain of the Company’s existing term loan lenders are the lenders under the DIP Term Facility.

All amounts outstanding under the DIP Term Facility bear interest at the Eurodollar Rate (which in no event will be less than 1.00%) plus 9.00% per annum. The term “Eurodollar Rate” has meanings customary and appropriate for DIP financing transactions. During the continuance of an event of default, the outstanding amounts under the DIP Term Facility bear interest at an additional 2.00% per annum above the interest rate otherwise applicable.

Use of Proceeds

The proceeds of the DIP Term Facility can be used in accordance with the terms of a specific budget (based on aggregate funding needs, with flexibility to account for variances with agreed cushions), including, without limitation: (i) to pay (a) all amounts due to lenders under the DIP Term Facility (the “DIP Term Lenders”) and Wilmington Trust, National Association, the administrative agent (the “DIP Term Agent”) under the DIP Term Facility, as provided under the DIP Term Facility and (b) all professional fees and expenses (including legal, financial advisor, appraisal and valuation-related fees and expenses) incurred by DIP Term Lenders and the DIP Term Agent, including those incurred in connection with the preparation, negotiation, documentation and court approval of the DIP Term Facility; (ii) for other general corporate purposes of the Company, including providing working capital; and (iii) to pay administration costs of the Chapter 11 cases or other amounts approved by the Bankruptcy Court.

Priority and Collateral

DIP Term Lenders and the DIP Term Agent, subject to the Carve-Out (as defined below), at all times: (i) are entitled to joint and several super-priority administrative expense claim status in the Chapter 11 cases (“DIP Superpriority Claims”), which DIP Superpriority Claims in respect of the DIP Term Facility and the DIP ABL Facility rank pari passu with each other and superior to all other claims; (ii) subject to certain exceptions, have a first priority lien ranking pari passu with the DIP ABL Facility on all unencumbered assets of the Company; (iii) have a junior lien on all encumbered assets of the Company secured by a first priority lien under the ABL Facility; (iv) have a first priority lien on cash in the Segregated Operating Account (as defined in the DIP Term Facility) and (v) have a first priority priming lien on all assets of the Company encumbered by a first priority lien under the pre-petition Term Facility not otherwise described in clauses (i) through (iv) that were subject to a lien as of the date of the Bankruptcy Filing. The Company’s obligations to the DIP Term Lenders and the liens and superpriority claims are subject in each case to a specific carve out amount (the “Carve-Out”) that accounts for certain administrative, court and legal fees payable in connection with the Bankruptcy Filing, as described in greater detail in the DIP Term Facility.

Affirmative and Negative Covenants

The DIP Term Facility is subject to certain affirmative and negative covenants, including, among others: (i) information reporting by the Company regarding a budget containing the actual and budgeted results for each week, together with a reasonably detailed written explanation of all material variances from the budget; (ii) the Debtors must comply with each Chapter 11 order issued by the Court; (iii) the Debtors must not make or permit to be made any change, amendment or

modification, or any application or motion for any change, amendment or modification, to any Chapter 11 order; and (iv) the Debtors must not create or permit to exist any liens or encumbrances on any assets, other than liens securing the DIP Term Facility, liens described elsewhere in the DIP Term Facility and any permitted liens. Additional covenants are described in greater detail in the DIP Term Facility.

Events of Default

The DIP Term Facility contains certain customary events of default, including: (i) conversion of the Chapter 11 cases to a Chapter 7 case; (ii) appointment of a trustee, examiner or receiver in the Chapter 11 cases; (iii) the amendment, supplement, stay, reversal, vacation or other modification of any Chapter 11 order without the written consent of the required DIP Term Lenders; and (iv) the Final Order Entry Date will not have been occurred within 35 days after the Interim Order Entry Date (as such terms are defined in the DIP Term Facility).

Maturity

The DIP Term Facility matures upon the earliest of, among other things, (i) on the 75th day the date on which the Chapter 11 proceedings are commenced; (ii) the earlier of the maturity date or the acceleration of the ABL Facility; (iii) the earlier of the effective date and the date of the substantial consummation of a plan of reorganization in the Chapter 11 proceedings; (iv) the date the Court orders the conversion of the Bankruptcy Filing to a Chapter 7 liquidation; (v) the acceleration of the loans or termination of the commitments under the DIP Term Facility, including, without limitation, as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default; (vi) the date that is 30 days after the date the Court enters an interim order if it has not entered a final order by such date; and (vii) other customary maturity events.

A copy of the DIP Term Loan Agreement is filed as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference. The above description of the DIP Term Facility is qualified in its entirety by reference to the DIP Term Loan Agreement.

The DIP ABL Facility

The ABL Agreement and the related ABL Facility is amended and restated pursuant to the Ratification and Amendment Agreement such that it became the DIP ABL Facility that allows new loans to made, on a rolling basis, to ensure the Company continues to have access to the ABL Facility during the Chapter 11 proceedings.

The DIP ABL Facility consists of a senior secured revolving credit and letter of credit facility of up to $60.0 million, with a sublimit for letters of credit of $12.5 million. The terms of the DIP ABL Facility are generally consistent with the terms of the ABL Facility, except that the Company has reduced flexibility to make discretionary investments, distributions, asset sales and incur additional debt outside the ordinary course of business.

At the election of the Debtors, borrowings under the DIP ABL Facility bear interest at either (i) LIBO Rate plus 3.00% or (ii) the Base Rate (which means for any day, a rate per annum equal to the greater of: (a) the Prime Rate in effect on such day; (b) the one month LIBO Rate; and (c) Federal Funds Rate in effect on such day plus 0.50%) plus 2.00%.

Affirmative and Negative Covenants

The DIP ABL Facility includes customary terms, conditions and covenants of debtor-in-possession credit facilities, including: (i) a covenant requiring the delivery by the Company of weekly budgets containing the actual and budgeted results for each week, together with a reasonably detailed explanation of all material variances from the budget, and material compliance with with the terms of such budget, to be tested on a cumulative basis, subject to certain agreed amounts of variance; (ii) a financial covenant restricting the Company from becoming legally obligated to make any capital expenditure, except for capital expenditures not exceeding an aggregate of $2.3 million or as otherwise provided for in the budget; and (iii) providing evidence to the administrative agent for the DIP ABL Facility (the “DIP ABL Agent”) that the Company has access to the proceeds of the DIP Term Facility to fund expenses and disbursements set forth in the budget and otherwise fund the Company’s working capital needs. The DIP ABL Facility does not include the financial covenant in the ABL Facility requiring the Company to maintain a certain fixed charge coverage ratio.

Maturity

The DIP ABL Facility matures on the earliest of: (i) July 31, 2015; (ii) the date that is 30 days after the entry of the interim financing order if the final financing order has not been entered (or such later date as may be consented to by the DIP ABL Agent); (iii) the effective date of a plan of reorganization in the Chapter 11 proceedings, provided that relative to the treatment of the liens and claims of the DIP ABL Facility and the ABL Facility, such plan and the order confirming such plan are acceptable to the DIP ABL Agent; (iv) the acceleration of the loans or termination of the commitments under the DIP ABL Facility or the DIP Term Facility; and (v) other customary maturity events.

A copy of the Ratification and Amendment Agreement is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference. The above description of the DIP ABL Facility is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Ratification and Amendment Agreement.

- 38-

(b) Changes in GAAP. Subject to Section 1.03(c), if at any time any change in GAAP would affect the computation of any financial ratio or requirement set forth in any Loan Document, and either the Required Lenders or Borrowers shall so request, the Required Lenders and Borrowers shall negotiate in good faith to amend such ratio or requirement to preserve the original intent thereof in light of such change in GAAP (subject to the approval of the Required Lenders); provided that, until so amended, (i) such ratio or requirement shall continue to be computed in accordance with GAAP prior to such change therein and (ii) Holdings shall provide to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders financial statements and other documents required under this Agreement or as reasonably requested hereunder setting forth a reconciliation between calculations of such ratio or requirement made before and after giving effect to such change in GAAP.

(c) Notwithstanding any actual or proposed change in GAAP after the date hereof or anything herein to the contrary, any lease that is treated as an operating lease for purposes of GAAP as of the date hereof shall not be treated as Indebtedness, Attributable Indebtedness or as a Capital Lease and shall continue to be treated as an operating lease (and any future lease, if it were in effect on the date hereof, that would be treated as an operating lease for purposes of GAAP as of the date hereof shall be treated as an operating lease), in each case for purposes of this Agreement.

Section 1.04 Rounding. Any financial ratios required to be maintained or complied with by Borrowers pursuant to this Agreement (or required to be satisfied in order for a specific action to be permitted under this Agreement) shall be calculated by dividing the appropriate component by the other component, carrying the result to one place more than the number of places by which such ratio is expressed herein and rounding the result up or down to the nearest number (with a rounding-up if there is no nearest number).

Section 1.05 Times of Day; Calculation of Dates. Unless otherwise specified, all references herein to times of day shall be references to Eastern time (daylight or standard, as applicable). In any calculation of dates for required performance or deliveries (other than payments), if the date calculated is not a Business Day, then the date for such performance or delivery shall be the next succeeding Business Day.

Section 1.06 Currency Equivalents Generally; Change of Currency. For purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (other than Articles 2, 9 and 12 hereof), where the permissibility of a transaction or determinations of required actions or circumstances depend upon compliance with, or are determined by reference to, amounts stated in Dollars, such amounts shall be deemed to refer to Dollars or Dollar Equivalents and any requisite currency translation shall be based on the Spot Rate in effect on the Business Day immediately preceding the date of such transaction or determination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, for purposes of determining compliance with Sections 7.01, 7.02 and 7.03 with respect to any amount of Liens, Investment or Indebtedness in currencies other than Dollars, no Default shall be deemed to have occurred solely as a result of changes in rates of exchange occurring after the time such Lien is created, Indebtedness is incurred or Investment is made. Each provision of this Agreement shall

- 39-

be subject to such reasonable changes of construction as the Administrative Agent may from time to time specify with Borrower Agent’s consent (not to be unreasonably withheld) to appropriately reflect a change in currency of any country and any relevant market conventions or practices relating to such change in currency.

ARTICLE 2.

THE TERM COMMITMENTS AND CREDIT EXTENSION

Section 2.01 Commitments to Lend; Term Loan. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Lender severally agrees to make a single loan to the Borrowers on the Credit Date in an aggregate amount not to exceed such Lender’s Term Commitment. Amounts borrowed under this Section 2.01 and repaid or prepaid, in whole or in part, may not be reborrowed. The Term Loan shall be denominated in Dollars and shall be Eurodollar Rate Loans, as further provided herein, and except as set forth in Sections 3.02 and 3.03, may not be converted to Base Rate Loans. The Term Commitment shall automatically terminate upon the making of the Term Loan. Proceeds of the Term Loan shall be deposited in the DIP Term Loan Funding Account and used solely as permitted herein.

Section 2.02 Term Borrowings.

(a) The Term Borrowing shall be made upon Borrower Agent’s irrevocable notice to the Administrative Agent, which may be given by “pdf” or similar electronic format, in the form of the Committed Loan Notice attached hereto as Exhibit A. The Committed Loan Notice must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 p.m., New York City time, one Business Day prior to (or such shorter time as agreed by the Administrative Agent) the requested date of the Term Borrowing.

(b) Following receipt of a Committed Loan Notice by the Administrative Agent and subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Sections 4.01 and 4.03, each Lender shall make the amount of its Applicable Percentage under the Term Facility of the Term Borrowing (net of original issue discount pursuant to Section 2.07(c)) available to the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds at the Administrative Agent’s Office not later than 12:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Business Day specified in the applicable Committed Loan Notice, which shall be no later than two Business Days after the Interim Bankruptcy Court Order Entry Date.

(c) Unless the Required Lenders determine that any applicable condition specified in Article 4 has not been satisfied, the amount so received by the Administrative Agent shall on the date of the Term Borrowing be applied by the Administrative Agent to pay all fees and expenses then due and payable under Section 2.07(a) and Section 12.04 and the amount net of such applied amount shall be deposited by the Administrative Agent in the DIP Term Loan Funding Account.

(d) Subject to Article 4 and the other terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower Agent may request disbursements from the DIP Term Loan Funding Account by delivering to the Administrative Agent a written notice substantially in the form of Exhibit B hereto (a “Notice of Withdrawal”), not later than 12:00 p.m., New York City time, one Business

- 40-

Day before (or such shorter time as agreed by the Administrative Agent) the proposed date of the applicable Withdrawal. Promptly upon the receipt of a Notice of Withdrawal and the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Sections 4.02 and 4.03, the Administrative Agent shall disburse funds from the DIP Term Loan Funding Account in an aggregate principal amount equal to the amount specified in such Notice of Withdrawal to the Segregated Operating Account. All proceeds of the Term Loan shall be held in the DIP Term Loan Funding Account at all times until such proceeds are disbursed in accordance with this Section 2.02(d) for purposes permitted under Section 6.10 or applied in accordance with Section 2.05 or Section 8.03 or Section 10.05(d) and (e). The Borrowers and the other Loan Parties shall have no property interest of any kind in the DIP Term Loan Funding Account and the funds held therein.

(e) The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify Borrower Agent and the Lenders of the interest rate applicable to any Interest Period for Eurodollar Rate Loans upon determination of such interest rate. At any time that Base Rate Loans are outstanding, the Administrative Agent shall notify Borrower Agent and the Lenders of any change in the Prime Rate used in determining the Base Rate promptly following the public announcement of such change.

(f) The Administrative Agent may honor instructions received from the Borrower Agent in the form of a Notice of Withdrawal unless and until directed otherwise in writing by the Required Lenders. On and after the date of receipt by the Administrative Agent of a written direction from the Required Lenders instructing the Administrative Agent that it may no longer honor instructions from the Borrower Agent with respect to the DIP Term Loan Funding Account, the Borrower Agent and the other Loan Parties shall have no right to request Withdrawals from the DIP Term Loan Funding Account and the Administrative Agent shall not honor such requests (in each case, other than to pay any amounts due and payable in accordance with Section 10.05(e)); provided, however, that the Administrative Agent shall not be liable for (i) any disbursements made pursuant to instructions from the Borrower Agent or (ii) irrevocable electronic funds transfers or wire transfers that are subject to cut-off times, in each case, that were processed prior to receipt of such written direction from the Required Lenders.

(g) Each submission by the Borrower Agent to the Administrative Agent of a Notice of Withdrawal shall be deemed to constitute a representation and warranty by the Borrower Agent, on behalf of the Borrowers, that the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 and Section 4.03 have been satisfied as of the date of the Withdrawal. With respect to any disbursement, withdrawal, transfer, or application of funds from the DIP Term Loan Funding Account hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to conclusively rely upon, and shall be fully protected in relying upon, (i) any Notice of Withdrawal submitted by the Borrower Agent and (ii) any instructions from the Required Lenders. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to fund any amount in excess of the amounts then held in the DIP Term Loan Funding Account.

Section 2.03 Prepayments.

(a) Optional. Borrowers may, upon written notice by Borrower Agent to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.03(c) below, at any time or from time to time voluntarily prepay the Term Loan in whole, but not in part, but otherwise without premium or

- 41-

penalty. The voluntary prepayment of the Term Loan pursuant to this Section 2.03(a) shall be accompanied by all accrued interest on the outstanding principal amount of the Term Loan, together with any additional amounts owed hereunder. The notice shall specify the date and amount of such prepayment and the payment amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Lender of its receipt of the notice, and of the amount of such Lender’s Applicable Percentage or other applicable share provided for under this Agreement of the prepayment.

(b)

Mandatory.

(i) Subject to clause (vi) below and except with respect to ABL Priority Collateral (as defined in the ABL Intercreditor Agreement), if Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries Disposes of any property (other than any Disposition of any property permitted by Section 7.05 which results in the realization by such Person of Net Cash Proceeds in excess of an aggregate amount of $2,500,000 per Fiscal Year), Borrowers shall prepay an aggregate principal amount of Term Loan equal to 100% of such Net Cash Proceeds in excess of $2,500,000 no later than five Business Days following receipt thereof by such Person (such prepayments to be applied as set forth in clause (v) below).

(ii) On the date of receipt by Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries of cash proceeds from a capital contribution to, or the issuance of any Capital Stock of, Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries (other than issuances of Capital Stock by a Subsidiary to Holdings and capital contributions by Holdings to a Subsidiary), the Borrowers shall prepay an aggregate principal amount of the Term Loan equal to 100% of such Net Cash Proceeds received therefrom no later than five Business Days following receipt thereof by such Person (such prepayments to be applied as set forth in clause (v) below).

(iii) Upon the incurrence or issuance by Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries of any Indebtedness after the Closing Date not permitted to be incurred or issued pursuant to Section 7.03, Borrowers shall prepay an aggregate principal amount of Term Loan equal to 100% of all Net Cash Proceeds received therefrom no later than five Business Days following receipt thereof by such Person (such prepayments to be applied as set forth in clause (v) below).

(iv) Upon any Extraordinary Receipt (other than those Extraordinary Receipts arising from any ABL Priority Collateral (as defined in the ABL Intercreditor Agreement)) received by or paid to or for the account of Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries and not otherwise included in clause (i), (ii) or (iii) of this Section 2.03(b), Borrowers shall prepay an aggregate principal amount of Term Loan equal to 100% of all Net Cash Proceeds received therefrom in excess of the greater of $2,500,000 per Fiscal Year no later than five Business Days following receipt thereof by such Person (such prepayments to be applied as set forth in clause (v) below).

(v) Any prepayment of the Term Loan pursuant to this Section 2.03(b) shall be accompanied by all accrued interest on the amount prepaid, together with any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 3.05.

- 42-

(vi) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section 2.03,

(1) to the extent that any of or all the Net Cash Proceeds of any Disposition by or Extraordinary Receipt of, a Foreign Subsidiary prohibited or delayed by applicable local law from being repatriated to the United States, the portion of such Net Cash Proceeds so affected will not be required to be applied to repay the Term Loan at the times provided in this Section 2.03 but may be retained by the applicable Foreign Subsidiary so long, but only so long, as the applicable local law, will not permit repatriation to the United States (Holdings hereby agreeing to use commercially reasonably efforts to otherwise cause the applicable Foreign Subsidiary to promptly take all commercially reasonable actions required by the applicable local law to permit such repatriation), and once such repatriation of any of such affected Net Cash Proceeds that, in each case, would otherwise be required to be used to prepay the Term Loan pursuant to Section 2.03(b)(i) or (iv), is permitted under the applicable local law, even if such cash is not actually repatriated at such time, an amount equal to such repatriated (or permitted to be repatriated) Net Cash Proceeds will be promptly (and in any event not later than five Business Days after such repatriation) applied (net of additional taxes payable or reserved against as a result thereof) to the repayment of the Term Loan pursuant to this Section 2.03;

(2) to the extent that Borrowers have determined in good faith that repatriation of any of or all the Net Cash Proceeds of any Disposition or Extraordinary Receipt by any Foreign Subsidiary would have material adverse tax cost consequence (as determined by Borrowers) with respect to such Net Cash Proceeds, such Net Cash Proceeds so affected may be retained by the applicable Foreign Subsidiary; provided that, in the case of this clause, on or before the date on which any such Net Cash Proceeds so retained would otherwise have been required to be applied to reinvestments or prepayments pursuant to Section 2.03(b), Borrowers may apply an amount equal to such Net Cash Proceeds to such reinvestments or prepayments, as applicable, as if such Net Cash Proceeds had been received by Borrowers rather than such Foreign Subsidiary, less the amount of additional taxes that would have been payable or reserved against if such Net Cash Proceeds had been repatriated (or, if less, the Net Cash Proceeds that would be calculated if received by such Foreign Subsidiary); and

(3) to the extent that any of or all the Net Cash Proceeds of any Disposition by or Extraordinary Receipt of a Subsidiary is prohibited or delayed by restrictions in such Subsidiary’s Organization Documents, the portion of such Net Cash Proceeds so affected will not be required to be applied to repay the Term Loan at the times provided in this Section 2.03 but may be retained by the applicable Subsidiary so long, but only so long, as the applicable Organization Documents will not permit such repayment (Holdings hereby agreeing to cause the applicable Subsidiary to promptly take all actions reasonably required by such Organization Document to permit such repayment), and once such repayment of any of such affected Net Cash Proceeds that, in each case, would otherwise be required to be used to make an offer of prepayment pursuant to Section 2.03(b)(i)

- 43-

or (iv), is permitted under the applicable Organization Document such repayment will be immediately effected; and even if such cash is not actually repatriated at such time, an amount equal to such Net Cash Proceeds will be promptly (and in any event not later than five Business Days after such repayment becomes possible) applied (net of additional taxes payable or reserved against as a result thereof) to the repayment of the Term Loan pursuant to this Section 2.03. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing within this Section 2.03(b)(vi) shall require any Loan Party to cause any amounts to be repatriated to the United States (whether or not such amounts are used in or excluded from the determination of the amount of any mandatory prepayments hereunder).

(c)

Notices of Prepayments.

(i) Generally. Other than as specified in Section 2.03(c)(ii) below, Borrower Agent shall provide written notice substantially in the form of Exhibit C hereto (each, a “Prepayment Notice”) to the Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 p.m., New York City time, (i) three Business Days prior to any date of prepayment of Eurodollar Rate Loans and (ii) one Business Day prior to any date of prepayment of Base Rate Loans. Each Prepayment Notice shall specify (x) the date and amount of such prepayment and (y) the Type of the Term Loan to be prepaid. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Lenders of its receipt of each such notice, and of the amount of such Lender’s ratable portion of such prepayment (based on such Lender’s Applicable Percentage in respect of the relevant Term Facility). If such notice is given by Borrower Agent, Borrowers shall make such prepayment and the payment amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein, unless such notice specified that prepayment is contingent upon consummation of another transaction, and the Borrowers shall have provided written notice to the Administrative Agent that such transaction was not consummated.

(ii) Notice of Mandatory Prepayment Events. Borrowers shall use commercially reasonable efforts to give to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, at least one Business Day’s prior written or telecopy notice of each and every prepayment required under Section 2.03(b)(i) through (iv), including the amount of Net Cash Proceeds expected to be received therefrom and the expected schedule for receiving such proceeds.

Section 2.04 Conversion of Loans to Exit Facility; Implementation.

(a) Upon the consummation of an Approved Plan of Reorganization, the Borrowers, subject to the satisfaction, or waiver, of the conditions set forth in the Exit Term Sheet and otherwise in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in the Exit Credit Agreement (as defined below), may exercise an option to continue or convert the Term Loan into an exit term facility financing (the “Exit Conversion”).

- 44-

(b) If the Borrowers elect to exercise the Exit Conversion, subject to, the satisfaction, or waiver by the Required Lenders in accordance with the Exit Term Sheet and the Exit Credit Agreement (as defined below) of the following conditions:

(i) each Lender, severally and not jointly, hereby agrees to continue the Term Loan hereunder outstanding on the date of consummation of an Approved Plan of Reorganization as loans under, and subject entirely and exclusively to the terms and provisions of, the definitive documentation to be agreed (including a credit agreement governing the continuation and conversion of the Term Loan, the “Exit Credit Agreement”) and related documentation to the extent that such documentation is consistent with the Exit Term Sheet and contains the terms set forth in the Exit Term Sheet and is otherwise in form and substance satisfactory to the Required Lenders; and

(ii) subject to Section 2.04(a), the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Loan Parties agree that, upon the effectiveness of the Exit Credit Agreement:

(A) the Borrowers, in their capacity as reorganized Borrowers, and each Guarantor, in its capacity as a reorganized Guarantor, shall assume all the Obligations hereunder with respect to the Term Loan and all other obligations in respect thereof in the manner set forth in the Exit Credit Agreement and related loan documents;

(B) the Term Loan hereunder shall be continued or converted, as the case may be, as loans under the Exit Credit Agreement;

(D) except as otherwise agreed between the Required Lenders and the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent hereunder shall be the administrative agent and collateral agent under the Exit Credit Agreement (provided that the Exit Credit Agreement and related documentation is in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent); and

(E) this Agreement shall terminate and be superseded and replaced by the Exit Credit Agreement.

(c)

If the Borrowers elect not to exercise the Exit Conversion:

(i) the Borrowers shall prepay the Term Loan in full in accordance with Section 2.03(a); and

(ii) the Borrowers agree that the Lenders shall have a right of first refusal with respect to the financing of any new term loan facility. The Borrowers may solicit proposals for financing from third-parties. The Borrowers shall provide the Lenders with such information as the Lenders may reasonable request to determine whether or not to provide such new term loan facility. If, after five Business Days of delivery of such information (including delivery of any follow-up information requests), the Lenders do not commit to provide such new term loan facility on terms which are, in the reasonable judgment of the Borrowers, on terms which are at least equivalent to those proposed by the aforementioned third-party or parties, the Borrowers may utilize third-party financing in respect of a new debt facility. If, within such five-Business Day period, the Lenders make a binding commitment to provide such new term loan facility on such terms, the Borrowers may not utilize third-party financing in respect of such new debt facility.

- 45-

(d)

Exit Conversion Fee.

(i) If the Borrowers elect to exercise the Exit Conversion, the Borrowers shall pay to each Applicable Holder its ratable share (calculated based on the Lender’s Applicable Percentage on the Closing Date in respect of the Term Facility) (the “Applicable Portion”) of a fee, payable in the form of a number of shares of common stock of reorganized Parent, in the amount equal to 10% of the pro forma common stock (after giving effect to equity granted to Prepetition Term Lenders, prepetition equity holders and the fees payable pursuant to Section 2.07(b) but excluding allocations of stock for the Management Incentive Plan (as such term is defined in the Reorganization Plan)), which shall be earned and payable on the effective date of the Approved Plan of Reorganization. The initial Applicable Portion of each Applicable Holder is set forth opposite the name of such Applicable Holder on Schedule 2.04 or in the Exit Fee Assignment pursuant to which such Applicable Holder became a party hereto, as applicable.

(ii) If the Borrowers elect not to exercise the Exit Conversion for any reason including without limitation as a result of a mandatory or optional prepayment (pursuant to Section 2.03), the Borrowers agree to pay to each Applicable Holder its Applicable Portion of a fee equal to $1,600,000, which shall be earned and payable on the effective date of the Approved Plan of Reorganization.

(iii) Such fees described in clauses (i) and (ii) above shall be fully earned when paid and shall not be refundable for any reason whatsoever.

(iv) Any Applicable Holder may at any time assign to one or more Persons (excluding a natural person), with the consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), all or a portion of its rights under this Section 2.04(d); provided that the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Exit Fee Assignment, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 (which fee may be waived by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion). The assignee, if it is not an Applicable Holder, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire. Upon acceptance by the Administrative Agent of an Exit Fee Assignment, the assignee and not the assignor will be the Applicable Holder with respect to the Applicable Portion as set forth in such Exit Fee Assignment.

(v) The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of Borrowers (and such agency being solely for tax purposes), shall maintain at the Administrative Agent’s Office (which office shall be in the United States) a copy of each Exit Fee Assignment delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of each Applicable Holder and the Applicable Portion of such Applicable Holder (the “Exit Fee Register”). The entries in the Exit Fee Register shall be

- 46-

conclusive absent manifest or demonstrable error, and Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Applicable Holders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Exit Fee Register pursuant to the terms hereof as an Applicable Holder for purposes of this Section 2.04(d), notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Exit Fee Register shall be available for inspection by any Borrower and any Applicable Holder (with respect to such Applicable Holder’s entry), at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

Section 2.05 Repayment of Term Loan. Upon the Maturity Date or earlier, if otherwise required by the terms hereof, (i) the Borrowers shall repay to the Administrative Agent for its account and the ratable account of the Lenders the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Term Loan (less any amounts remaining in the DIP Term Loan Funding Account) and all accrued but unpaid interest thereon (together with any fees and expenses payable therewith, including without limitation, any such fees or expenses due under Section 2.07 and Section 12.04), and (ii) the Administrative Agent shall apply such funds (together with any funds remaining in the DIP Term Loan Funding Account (after the payment of fees and expenses, including without limitation any such fees or expenses due under Section 2.07 and Section 12.04)) to repay each Lender in the amount of such Lender’s ratable portion of the remaining amount (based on such Lender’s Applicable Percentage in respect of the Term Facility); provided, however that, subject to terms and conditions set forth in Section 2.04(b), if the Borrower elects to exercise the Exit Conversion, all proceeds (after the payment of fees and expenses, including without limitation any such fees or expenses due under Section 2.07 and Section 12.04) in the DIP Term Loan Funding Account shall be remitted to the Borrowers as directed by the Borrowers in writing to the Administrative Agent on the date of the Exit Conversion subject to the terms and conditions of the Exit Credit Agreement.

Section 2.06 Interest.

(a) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.06(b), the Term Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount for each Interest Period (with the first such Interest Period commencing on the Credit Date) at a rate per annum equal to the Eurodollar Rate for such Interest Period plus 9.00%; provided that upon the conversion of the Eurodollar Rate Loan of a Lender to a Base Rate Loan pursuant to Section 3.02 or Section 3.03, the Term Loan shall bear interest the outstanding principal amount of the Term Loan from the date of such conversion at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus 8.00%.

(b) Default Rate.

(i) During the continuance of a Default under Section 8.01(a), Borrowers shall pay interest on such overdue amounts at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws.

(ii) Accrued and unpaid interest on past due amounts (including interest on past due interest) shall be due and payable upon demand.

- 47-

(c) Interest on the Term Loan shall be due and payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date applicable thereto and at such other times as may be specified herein. Interest hereunder shall be due and payable in accordance with the terms hereof before and after judgment, and before and after the commencement of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law.

Section 2.07 Fees.

(a) Administrative Agent Fee. Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent fees and expenses in the amounts and at the times set forth in the Fee Letter. Such fees and expenses shall be fully earned and irrevocable when paid and shall not be refundable for any reason whatsoever. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to apply funds held in the DIP Term Loan Funding Account to the payment of such fees and expenses.

(b) Backstop Fee. The Borrowers shall pay to the Backstop Lenders fees in the amounts and at the times specified in the Backstop Commitment Letter. Such fees shall be fully earned when paid and shall not be refundable for any reason whatsoever. The Administrative Agent shall apply funds held in the DIP Term Loan Funding Account to the payment of such fees and expenses.

(c) Original Issue Discount. The Borrowers and each Lender agrees that on the date of the Term Borrowing the Borrowers shall receive proceeds from the Term Loan based on a purchase price of 98.00% of the principal amount thereof. For the avoidance of doubt, on the Closing Date, each Lender shall advance to the Administrative Agent for application as set forth in Section 2.02(c) an amount equal to 98.00% of its ratable share of the Term Loan requested by the Borrowers as of such date in exchange for the Borrowers’ obligations to repay in full the face amount of the Term Loan plus interest accrued thereon in accordance with the terms hereof.

Section 2.08 Computation of Interest and Fees. All computations of interest for Base Rate Loans 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 fees or interest, as applicable, being paid than if computed on the basis of a 365-day year). Interest shall accrue on the Term Loan for the day on which the Term Loan is made, and shall not accrue on the Term Loan, or any portion thereof, for the day on which the Term Loan or such portion is paid; provided that if the Term Loan is repaid on the same day on which it is made, subject to Section 2.10(a), then it shall bear interest for one day. Each determination by the Administrative Agent of an interest rate or fee hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest or demonstrable error.

Section 2.09 Evidence of Debt. The Credit Extension made by each Lender shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or records maintained by such Lender and by the Administrative Agent in the ordinary course of business. The accounts or records maintained by the Administrative Agent and each Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest or demonstrable error of the amount of the Credit Extension made by the Lenders to Borrowers and the interest and payments thereon. Any failure to so record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit

- 48-

or otherwise affect the obligation of Borrowers hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to the Obligations. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by any Lender and the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest or demonstrable error.

Section 2.10 Payments Generally; Administrative Agent’s Clawback.

(a) General. All payments to be made by Borrowers shall be made without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by Borrowers hereunder shall be made to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the respective Lenders to which such payment is owed, at the Administrative Agent’s Office in Dollars and in immediately available funds not later than 2:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date specified herein. The Administrative Agent will promptly distribute to each Lender its Applicable Percentage (or other applicable share as provided herein) of all payments and prepayments of principal and interest due hereunder, together with all other amounts due thereto, including all fees payable with respect thereto, in like funds as received by wire transfer to such Lender’s Lending Office. All payments received by the Administrative Agent after 2:00 p.m., New York City time, shall be deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue. If any payment to be made by Borrowers shall come due on a day other than a Business Day, payment shall be made on the next following Business Day, and such extension of time shall be reflected on computing interest or fees, as the case may be.

(b) Failure to Satisfy Conditions Precedent. On the Closing Date, any Lender makes available to the Administrative Agent funds for the Term Loan to be made by such Lender as provided in this Article 2, and such funds are not made available to Borrowers by the Administrative Agent because the conditions to the Credit Extension set forth in Article 4 are not satisfied or waived in accordance with the terms hereof, the Administrative Agent shall promptly return such funds (in like funds as received from such Lender) to such Lender, without interest.

(c) Obligations of Lenders Several. The obligations of the Lenders hereunder to make the Term Loan and to make payments pursuant to Section 12.04(c) are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make the Term Loan or to make any payment under Section 12.04(c) on any date required hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its corresponding obligation to do so on such date, and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to so make its Term Loan or to make its payment under Section 12.04(c).

(d) Funding Source. Nothing herein shall be deemed to obligate any Lender to obtain the funds for the Term Loan in any particular place or manner or to constitute a representation by any Lender that it has obtained or will obtain the funds for the Term Loan in any particular place or manner.

(e) Insufficient Funds. If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, interest, fees and expenses then due hereunder, such funds (including any funds remaining in the DIP Term Loan Funding Account) shall be applied (i) first, toward payment of fees and expenses then due to the

- 49-

Administrative Agent hereunder, in accordance with the amounts of fees and expenses then due to the Administrative Agent, (ii) second, toward payment of interest and fees then due to any other parties hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and fees then due to such parties, and (iii) third, toward payment of principal then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal then due to such parties.

Section 2.11 Sharing of Payments by Lenders. If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of (a) Obligations in respect of the Term Facility due and payable to such Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time in excess of its ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such Obligations due and payable to such Lender at such time to (ii) the aggregate amount of the Obligations in respect of the Term Facility due and payable to all Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time) of payments on account of the Obligations in respect of the Term Facility due and payable to all Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time obtained by all the Lenders at such time or (b) Obligations in respect of any of the Term Facility owing (but not due and payable) to such Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time in excess of its ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such Obligations owing (but not due and payable) to such Lender at such time to (ii) the aggregate amount of the Obligations in respect of the Term Facility owing (but not due and payable) to all Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time) of payment on account of the Obligations in respect of the Term Facility owing (but not due and payable) to all Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time obtained by all of the Lenders at such time then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (A) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (B) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Term Loan of the other Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of Obligations in respect of the Term Facility then due and payable to the Lenders or owing (but not due and payable) to the Lenders, as the case may be, provided that:

(i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest; and

(ii) the provisions of this Section shall not be construed to apply to (x) any payment made by or on behalf of Borrowers pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or (y) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Term Loan to any assignee or participant.

Section 2.12 Borrower Agent. Each Borrower hereby designates Anchor (“Borrower Agent”) as its representative and agent for all purposes under the Loan Documents, including requests for the Term Loan, designation of interest rates, delivery or receipt of communications, preparation and delivery of financial reports, receipt and payment of Obligations, requests for waivers, amendments or other accommodations, actions under the Loan Documents (including in respect of compliance with covenants), and all other dealings with the Administrative Agent and

- 50-

the Lenders. Borrower Agent hereby accepts such appointment. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall be fully protected in relying upon, any notice or communication (including any Committed Loan Notice and any Notice of Withdrawal) delivered by Borrower Agent on behalf of any Borrower. The Administrative Agent may give any notice or communication with a Borrower hereunder to Borrower Agent on behalf of such Borrower. The Administrative Agent shall have the right, in its discretion, to deal exclusively with Borrower Agent for any or all purposes under the Loan Documents. Each Borrower agrees that any notice, election, communication, representation, agreement or undertaking made on its behalf by Borrower Agent shall be binding upon and enforceable against it.

Section 2.13 Joint and Several Nature and Extent of Each Borrower’s Liability.

(a) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or any other Loan Document to the contrary, each of the Borrowers hereby accepts joint and several liability hereunder and under the other Loan Documents in consideration of the financial accommodations to be provided by the Lenders under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, for the mutual benefit, directly and indirectly, of each of the Borrowers and in consideration of the undertakings of the other Borrowers to accept joint and several liability for the Obligations. Each of the Borrowers, jointly and severally, hereby irrevocably and unconditionally accepts, not merely as a surety but also as a co-debtor, joint and several liability with the other Borrowers, with respect to the payment and performance of all of the Obligations (including, without limitation, any Obligations arising under this Section 2.13), it being the intention of the parties hereto that all of the Obligations shall be the joint and several obligations of each of the Borrowers without preferences or distinction among them. If and to the extent that any of the Borrowers shall fail to make any payment with respect to any of the Obligations as and when due or to perform any of the Obligations in accordance with the terms thereof, then in each such event, the other Borrowers will make such payment with respect to, or perform, such Obligation. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Obligations of each of the Borrowers under the provisions of this Section 2.13 constitute the absolute and unconditional, full recourse Obligations of each of the Borrowers, enforceable against each such Person to the full extent of its properties and assets, irrespective of the validity, binding effect or enforceability of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or any other circumstances whatsoever.

(b) The provisions of this Section 2.13 are made for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and their successors and assigns, and may be enforced by them from time to time against any or all of the Borrowers as often as occasion therefor may arise and without requirement on the part of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders or such successors or assigns first to marshal any of its or their claims or to exercise any of its or their rights against any of the other Borrowers or to exhaust any remedies available to it or them against any of the other Borrowers or to resort to any other source or means of obtaining payment of any of the Obligations hereunder or to elect any other remedy. The provisions of this Section 2.13 shall be in effect until all of the Obligations shall have been paid in full or otherwise fully satisfied.

(c) Each of the Borrowers hereby agrees that it will not enforce any of its rights of contribution or subrogation against the other Borrowers with respect to any liability incurred by it hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents, or any payments made by it

- 51-

to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders with respect to any of the Obligations or any Collateral, until such time as all of the Obligations have been paid in full. Any claim which any Borrower may have against any other Borrower with respect to any payments to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders hereunder or under any other Loan Documents are hereby expressly made subordinate and junior in right of payment, without limitation as to any increases in the Obligations arising hereunder or thereunder, to the prior payment in full of the Obligations.

Section 2.14 No Discharge; Survival of Claims. Until the Obligations are satisfied in full, and all the Commitments have been terminated, each of the Borrowers agree that (i) its Obligations hereunder shall not be discharged by the entry of an order confirming a Reorganization Plan (and each of the Borrowers, pursuant to section 1141(d)(4) of the Bankruptcy Code, hereby waives any such discharge) and (ii) the super-priority claim granted to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders pursuant to the Bankruptcy Court Orders and described in Section 10.05 and the Liens granted to the Administrative Agent pursuant to the Bankruptcy Court Orders and described in Section 10.05 shall not be affected in any manner by the entry of an order confirming any plan of reorganization.

ARTICLE 3.

TAXES, YIELD PROTECTION AND ILLEGALITY

Section 3.01 Taxes.

(a) Payments Free of Taxes; Obligation to Withhold; Payments on Account of Taxes.

(i) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall to the extent permitted by applicable Laws be made free and clear of and without reduction or withholding for any Taxes. If, however, applicable Laws require any applicable withholding agent to withhold or deduct any Tax, such Tax shall be withheld or deducted in accordance with such Laws upon the basis of the information and documentation to be delivered pursuant to subsection (e) below.

(ii) If any applicable withholding agent shall be required to withhold or deduct any Taxes, including both United States Federal backup withholding and withholding taxes, from any payment, then (A) the applicable withholding agent shall withhold or make such deductions based upon the information and documentation it has received pursuant to subsection (e) below, (B) the applicable withholding agent shall timely pay the full amount withheld or deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority, and (C) to the extent that the withholding or deduction is made on account of Indemnified Taxes, the sum payable by the applicable Loan Party shall be increased as necessary so that after any required withholding or the making of all required deductions of Indemnified Taxes (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 3.01) the Administrative Agent or Lender, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such withholding or deduction of Indemnified Taxes been made.

- 52-

(b) Payment of Other Taxes by Borrowers. Without limiting the provisions of subsection (a) above, the Loan Parties shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Laws, or at the option of the Administrative Agent, timely reimburse it for the payment of Other Taxes.

(c) Tax Indemnifications. Without limiting or duplicating the provisions of subsection (a) or (b) above, the Loan Parties shall, and do hereby, jointly and severally indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender, and shall make payment in respect thereof within ten days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 3.01) payable or paid by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of any such payment or liability delivered to Borrower Agent by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest or demonstrable error.

(d) Evidence of Payments. As soon as practical after any payment of Taxes by any Loan Party provided in this Section 3.01, Borrower Agent shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of any return required by Laws reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, as the case may be.

(e)

Status of Lenders.

(i) Tax Documentation. Each Lender shall deliver to Borrower Agent and to the Administrative Agent, at the time or times prescribed by applicable Laws or when reasonably requested by Borrower Agent or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable Laws or by the taxing authorities of any jurisdiction and such other reasonably requested information as will permit Borrower Agent or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, to determine (A) whether or not payments made hereunder or under any other Loan Document are subject to Taxes, (B) if applicable, the required rate of withholding or deduction, and (C) such Lender’s entitlement to any available exemption from, or reduction of, applicable Taxes in respect of all payments to be made to such Lender by Borrowers pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise to establish such Lender’s status for withholding tax purposes in the applicable jurisdiction. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding sentence, the delivery, completion and execution of documentation and other requested information described in this subsection (e)(i) (and not otherwise described in subsection (e)(ii)) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such delivery, completion or execution would subject the Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.

- 53-

(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, on or prior to the date on which a Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Borrower Agent or the Administrative Agent), but only to the extent it is legally eligible to do so,

(A) any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to Borrower Agent and the Administrative Agent executed originals of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding Tax; and

(B) each Foreign Lender shall deliver to Borrower Agent and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be reasonably requested by the recipient), whichever of the following is applicable:

(1) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party, (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable, establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable, establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty,

(2) executed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI,

(3) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit G-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not (A) a “bank” within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (B) a “10 percent shareholder” of any Loan Party within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or (C) “a controlled foreign corporation” described in section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable, or

(4) to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed originals of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN, IRS Form W-8BEN-E, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit G-3 or G-4, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit G-2 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner together with the executed originals of the applicable IRS Forms.

- 54-

(iii) If a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to Borrower Agent and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by Borrower Agent or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by Borrower Agent or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for Borrower Agent and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (iii), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

(iv) Each Lender shall promptly (A) notify Borrower Agent and the Administrative Agent of any change in circumstances which would modify or render invalid, obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, or the expiration of, any form or certification provided pursuant to this Section 3.01(e) and (B) update any such form or certification or notify Borrower Agent and Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.

(f) Treatment of Certain Refunds. At no time shall the Administrative Agent have any obligation to file for or otherwise pursue on behalf of a Lender, or have any obligation to pay to any Lender, any refund of Taxes withheld or deducted from funds paid for the account of such Lender. If the Administrative Agent or any Lender determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any Indemnified Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by Borrowers or with respect to which Borrowers have paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 3.01, it shall pay to Borrower Agent an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section with respect to Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, related to the receipt of such refund and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund), provided that the Loan Parties, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, agree to repay the amount paid over to Borrower Agent (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent or such Lender in the event the Administrative Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This subsection shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to a Loan Party or any other Person. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this subsection, in no event will the Administrative Agent or such Lender be required to pay any amount to Borrower Agent pursuant to this subsection the payment of which would place the Administrative Agent or such Lender in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the Administrative Agent or such Lender would have been in if the indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to such refund had never been paid.

- 55-

(g) Each party’s obligations under this Section 3.01 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Obligations and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document.

Section 3.02 Illegality. If any Lender determines that any Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable Lending Office to make, maintain or fund the Term Loan whose interest is determined by reference to the Eurodollar Rate, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Eurodollar Rate, or any Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority of such Lender to purchase or sell, or to take deposits of, Dollars, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to Borrowers (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), (i) any obligation of such Lender to make Eurodollar Rate Loans in the affected currency or currencies shall be suspended and (ii) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender maintaining Base Rate Loans the interest rate on which is determined by reference to the Eurodollar Rate component of the Base Rate, the interest rate on which Base Rate Loans of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to the Eurodollar Rate component of the Base Rate, in each case until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and Borrower Agent that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, (x) Borrowers shall, upon demand from such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), prepay or, if applicable, convert all Eurodollar Rate Loans of such Lender to Base Rate Loans or (y) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender maintaining Base Rate Loans (the interest rate on which is determined by reference to the Eurodollar Rate component of the Base Rate), the interest rate on which Base Rate Loans of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to the Eurodollar Rate component of the Base Rate, in each case, either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Eurodollar Rate Loans to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Eurodollar Rate Loans. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, Borrowers shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted.

Section 3.03 Inability to Determine Rates. If the Required Lenders determine that for any reason in connection with any request for a Eurodollar Rate Loan that (a) deposits are not being offered to banks in the London interbank Eurodollar market for the applicable amount and Interest Period of such Eurodollar Rate Loan, (b) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the Eurodollar Rate for a proposed Eurodollar Rate Loan or (c) the Eurodollar Rate for a proposed Eurodollar Rate Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding the Term Loan, the Required Lenders shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and upon receipt of such notice from the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent shall promptly so notify Borrower Agent and each Lender. Thereafter, (x) the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended and (y) in the event of a determination described in the preceding sentence with respect to the Eurodollar Rate component of the Base Rate, the utilization of the Eurodollar Rate component in determining the Base Rate shall be suspended, in each case until the Administrative Agent (upon

- 56-

the instruction of the Required Lenders) revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, Borrowers may revoke any pending request for a Term Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a Term Borrowing of Base Rate Loans in the amount specified therein.

Section 3.04 Increased Costs; Reserves on Eurodollar Rate Loans.

(a)

Increased Costs Generally. If any Change in Law shall:

(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender (except any reserve requirement contemplated by Section 3.04(e));

(ii) subject the Administrative Agent or any Lender to any Tax (except for Indemnified Taxes covered by Section 3.01 and the imposition of, or any change in the rate of, any Tax described in the definition of Excluded Tax) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitment, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or

(iii) impose on any Lender or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense affecting this Agreement or Eurodollar Rate Loans made by such Lender;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to any Lender of making or maintaining the Term Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make the Term Loan), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by the Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, Borrowers will pay to the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

(b) Capital Requirements. If any Lender determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or any Lending Office of such Lender or such Lender’s holding company, if any, regarding capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Term Commitment of such Lender or the Term Loan made by such Lender, to a level below that which such Lender or such Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time Borrowers will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.

(c) Certificates for Reimbursement. A certificate of a Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in subsection (a) or (b) of this Section and delivered to Borrower Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest or demonstrable error. Borrowers shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten days after receipt thereof.

- 57-

(d) Delay in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation, provided that Borrowers shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than six months prior to the date that such Lender notifies Borrower Agent of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the six-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

(e) Reserves on Eurodollar Rate Loans. Borrowers shall pay to each Lender, as long as such Lender shall be required to maintain reserves with respect to liabilities or assets consisting of or including Eurodollar funds or deposits (currently known as “Eurodollar liabilities”), additional interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Eurodollar Rate Loan equal to the actual costs of such reserves allocated to the Term Loan by such Lender (as determined by such Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive and binding), which shall be due and payable on each date on which interest is payable on the Term Loan, provided Borrower Agent shall have received at least ten days prior notice (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of such additional interest from such Lender. If a Lender fails to give notice ten days prior to the relevant Interest Payment Date, such additional interest shall be due and payable ten days from receipt of such notice.

Section 3.05 Compensation for Losses. Upon demand of any Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) from time to time, Borrowers shall promptly compensate such Lender for and hold such Lender harmless from any loss, cost or expense incurred by it as a result of:

(a) any conversion, payment or prepayment of the Term Loan other than a Base Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period for the Term Loan (whether voluntary, mandatory, automatic, by reason of acceleration, or otherwise);

(b) any failure by Borrowers to prepay, borrow or convert the Term Loan other than a Base Rate Loan on the date or in the amount notified by Borrower Agent (in the case of a borrowing, for a reason other than the failure of such Lender to make a Term Loan); or

(c) any assignment of a Eurodollar Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period therefor as a result of a request by Borrowers pursuant to Section 12.13;

including any foreign exchange losses or loss of anticipated profits and any loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain the Term Loan or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained or from the performance of any foreign exchange contract. Borrowers shall also pay any customary administrative fees charged by such Lender in connection with the foregoing.

- 58-

For purposes of calculating amounts payable by Borrowers to the Lenders under this Section 3.05, each Lender shall be deemed to have funded each Eurodollar Rate Loan made by it at the Eurodollar Rate for the Term Loan by a matching deposit or other borrowing in the London or other offshore interbank market for Dollars for a comparable amount and for a comparable period, whether or not such Eurodollar Rate Loan was in fact so funded. A certificate (with reasonable supporting detail) of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts which such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 3.05 shall be delivered to the applicable Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest or demonstrable error.

Section 3.06 Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.

(a) Designation of a Different Lending Office. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 3.04, or Borrowers are required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.01, or if any Lender gives a notice pursuant to Section 3.02, then such Lender shall (at the request of the Borrower Agent) use reasonable efforts to designate a different Lending Office for funding or booking its Term Loan hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 3.01 or 3.04, as the case may be, in the future, or eliminate the need for the notice pursuant to Section 3.02, as applicable, and (ii) in each case, would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. Borrowers hereby agree to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

(b) Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 3.04, or if Borrowers are required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.01, Borrowers may replace such Lender in accordance with Section 12.13.

Section 3.07 Survival. All of Borrowers’ obligations under this Article 3 shall survive termination of the Aggregate Term Commitments, any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other Obligations hereunder, and resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent.

ARTICLE 9.

ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

Section 9.01 Appointment and Authority.

(a) Each of the Lenders hereby irrevocably appoints Wilmington Trust, National Association to act on its behalf as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Article are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and no Borrower or any other Loan Party shall have rights as a third-party beneficiary of any of such provisions. It is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” herein or in any other Loan Documents (or any other similar term) with reference to the 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 as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties.

(b) The Administrative Agent shall also act as the “collateral agent” under the Loan Documents, and each of the Lenders (in its capacities as a Lender) hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to act as the agent of (and to hold any security interest created by the Collateral Documents for and on behalf of or in trust for) such Lender for purposes of acquiring, holding and enforcing any and all Liens on Collateral granted by any of the Loan Parties to secure any of the Obligations, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto. In this connection, the Administrative Agent, as “collateral agent” and any co-agents, sub-agents and attorneys-in-fact appointed by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 9.05 for purposes of holding or enforcing any Lien on the Collateral (or any portion thereof) granted under the Collateral Documents, or for exercising any rights and remedies thereunder at the direction of the Administrative Agent), shall be entitled to the benefits of all provisions of this Article 9 and Article 12 (including Section 12.04(c)), as though such co-agents, sub-agents and attorneys-in-fact were the “collateral agent” under the Loan Documents, as if set forth in full herein with respect thereto. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Lenders hereby expressly authorize the Administrative Agent to execute any and all documents (including releases) with respect to the Collateral and the rights of the Secured Parties with respect thereto (including the ABL Intercreditor Agreement), as contemplated by and in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the Collateral Documents and acknowledge and agree that any such action by the Administrative Agent shall bind the Lenders.

Section 9.02 Rights as a Lender. The Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder in its individual capacity as a Lender. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, own securities of, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with any Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person

- 94-

were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders. The Lenders acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities, the Administrative Agent or its Affiliates may receive information regarding any Loan Party or any of its Affiliates (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of such Loan Party or such Affiliate) and acknowledge that the Administrative Agent shall not be under any obligation to provide such information to them.

Section 9.03 Exculpatory Provisions. The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent:

(a) shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing;

(b) shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except (in the case of the Administrative Agent) discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents); provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable Law, including for the avoidance of doubt any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any Debtor Relief Law or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any Debtor Relief Law; and

(c) shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to any Borrower or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.

Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its Related Parties shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Sections 8.02 and 12.01) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and non-appealable judgment. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until it shall have received written notice from a Lender or Borrower Agent referring to this Agreement, describing such Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default.”

Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its Related Parties shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity,

- 95-

enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or the creation, perfection or priority (or the continuation of such perfection or priority) of any Lien purported to be created by the Collateral Documents, (v) the value or the sufficiency of any Collateral or (vi) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article 4 or elsewhere herein, other than, in the case of the Administrative Agent, to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent. The duties of the Administrative Agent shall be mechanical and administrative in nature; the Administrative Agent shall not have by reason of this Agreement or any other Loan Document a fiduciary relationship in respect of any Lender; and nothing in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, expressed or implied, is intended to or shall be so construed as to impose upon the Administrative Agent any obligations in respect of this Agreement or any other Loan Document except as expressly set forth herein or therein. Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Administrative Agent shall not have any liability arising from confirmations of the amount of the outstanding Term Loan or any components thereof.

Section 9.04 Reliance. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of the Term Loan that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender prior to the making of such Term Loan. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for Borrowers), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

Section 9.05 Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agents except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and nonappealable judgment that the Administrative Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub-agents.

Section 9.06 Resignation of Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders and Borrowers. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, with Borrowers’ consent (such consent not to be unreasonably

If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 15 Business Days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) on behalf of the Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above; provided that if the Administrative Agent shall notify Borrower Agent and the Lenders that no qualifying Person has accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice and (a) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except that in the case of any collateral security held by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed) and (b) except for any indemnity payments owed to the retiring Administrative Agent, all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender directly, until such time as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above in this Section. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Administrative Agent (other than any rights to indemnity payments owed to the retiring or removed Administrative Agent), and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section). The fees payable by Borrowers to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between Borrowers and such successor.

Section 9.07 Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

Section 9.08 No Other Duties, Etc. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Administrative Agent shall not have any powers, duties or responsibilities under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, except in its capacity, as applicable, as the Administrative Agent or a Lender hereunder.

Section 9.09 Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or any other judicial proceeding relating to any Loan Party, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of the Term Loan shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on Borrowers) shall be entitled and empowered (but not obligated), by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

(a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Term Loan and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders and the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.07 and 12.04) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

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

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.07 and 12.04.

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

Section 9.10 Collateral and Guaranty Matters. Each Lender irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent, at its option and in its discretion:

(a) to release any Lien to the extent securing the Obligations on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document (i) upon termination of the Aggregate Term Commitments and payment in full of all Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations not yet due and payable), (ii) that is sold or to be sold as part of or in connection with any sale permitted hereunder to a Person that is not a Loan Party or under the Loan Documents or (iii) if approved, authorized or ratified in writing in accordance with Section 12.01;

(b) to release any Guarantor from its Guarantee of the Obligations under the Loan Documents (i) upon termination of the Aggregate Term Commitments and payment in full of all Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations not yet due and payable) or (ii) if approved, authorized or ratified in writing in accordance with Section 12.01;

- 98-

(c) to release any Guarantor from its Guarantee of the Obligations under the Loan Documents if such Person ceases to be a Subsidiary as a result of a transaction permitted hereunder (unless such Person continues to guarantee the ABL Credit Agreement); and

(d) establish intercreditor arrangements in connection with other Indebtedness as contemplated by this Agreement.

Upon request by the Administrative Agent at any time, the Required Lenders will confirm in writing the Administrative Agent’s authority to release or subordinate its interest in particular types or items of Collateral, or to release any Guarantor from its Guarantee of the Obligations under the Loan Documents pursuant to this Section 9.10. In each case as specified in this Section 9.10, the Administrative Agent will, at Borrowers’ expense, execute and deliver to the applicable Loan Party such documents as such Loan Party may reasonably request to evidence the release of such item of Collateral from the assignment and security interest granted under the Loan Documents or to subordinate its interest in such item, or to release such Guarantor from its Guarantee of the Obligations under the Loan Documents, in each case in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents and this Section 9.10.

The Administrative Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to the Lenders or to any other Person to assure that the Collateral exists or is owned by any Loan Party or is cared for, protected or insured or that the Liens granted to the Administrative Agent herein or pursuant hereto have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected or enforced or are entitled to any particular priority, or to exercise or to continue exercising at all or in any manner or under any duty of care, disclosure or fidelity any of the rights, authorities and powers granted or available to the Administrative Agent in this Section 9.10 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 Administrative Agent may act in any manner it may deem appropriate, in its sole discretion, given the Administrative Agent’s own interest in the Collateral and that Administrative Agent shall have no duty or liability whatsoever to the Lenders, except for its gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision).

Section 9.11 Indemnification of Administrative Agent. Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, each Lender shall indemnify upon demand the Administrative Agent and its Related Parties (to the extent not reimbursed by or on behalf of Borrowers and without limiting the obligations of Borrowers to do so pursuant to Section 12.04) on a pro rata basis (determined as of the time that the applicable payment is sought based on each Lender’s outstanding Term Loan at such time) and hold harmless the Administrative Agent and its Related Parties against any and all Indemnified Liabilities incurred by it; provided that no Lender shall be liable for payment to the Administrative Agent or its Related Parties of any portion of such Indemnified Liabilities to the extent determined in a final, nonappealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the Administrative Agent’s or its Related Parties’ own gross negligence or willful misconduct (and no action taken in accordance with the directions of the Required Lenders or any other appropriate group of Lenders pursuant to Section 12.01 shall be deemed to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct for purposes of this Section 9.11). In the case of any investigation, litigation or proceeding giving rise to any Indemnified Liabilities, this Section 9.11 applies whether any such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by any Lender or any other Person.

Section 9.12 Certain Rights of the Administrative Agent. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to refrain from any act or the taking of any action (including the failure to act or take an action) unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received written instructions from the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith to be necessary hereunder or under the other Loan Documents); and the Administrative Agent shall not incur liability to any Lender by reason of so refraining. Without limiting the foregoing, no Lender shall have any right of action whatsoever against the Administrative Agent as a result of the Administrative Agent acting or refraining from acting hereunder or under any other Loan Document in accordance with the instructions of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith to be necessary hereunder or under the other Loan Documents).

Section 9.13 [Reserved].

Section 9.14 Delivery of Information. The Administrative Agent shall not be required to deliver to any Lender originals or copies of any documents, instruments, notices, communications or other information received by the Administrative Agent from any Loan Party, any Subsidiary, the Required Lenders, any Lender or any other Person under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document except (i) as specifically provided in this Agreement or any other Loan Document and (ii) as specifically requested from time to time in writing by any Lender with respect to a specific document, instrument, notice or other written communication received by and in the possession of the Administrative Agent at the time of receipt of such request and then only in accordance with such specific request.

Section 9.15 Withholding. To the extent required by any applicable law, the Administrative Agent may withhold from any payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to any withholding Tax applicable to such payment. Without limiting or expanding the provisions of Section 3.01, each Lender shall indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent against, within ten days after written demand therefor, any and all Taxes and any and all related losses, claims, liabilities and expenses (including fees charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Administrative Agent) incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent as a result of the failure of the Administrative Agent to properly withhold any Tax from amounts paid to or for the account of such Lender for any reason (including, without limitation, because the appropriate form was not delivered or not properly executed, or because such Lender failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a change in circumstance that rendered the exemption from, or reduction of, withholding Tax ineffective). A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any amount due the Administrative Agent under this Section 9.15. The agreements in this Section 9.15 shall survive the resignation and/or replacement of the Administrative Agent, and assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Aggregate Term Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other Obligations.

Parties, their lead restructuring counsel, and the U.S. Trustee, which notice may be delivered following the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default and acceleration of the Obligations hereunder pursuant to Section 8.02, stating that the Post-Carve Out Trigger Notice Cap has been invoked.

(e) On the day on which a Carve Out Trigger Notice is given by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower Agent, with a copy to its lead restructuring counsel, the U.S. Trustee and the ABL Agent and its lead restructuring counsel (the “Termination Declaration Date”), (i) if amounts available in the Segregated Operating Account are insufficient to pay the Allowed Professional Fees then due and payable and then only to the extent of such unpaid amounts in respect of such Allowed Professional Fees the Borrower Agent may deliver a Notice of Withdrawal to the Administrative Agent (which Notice of Withdrawal the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall be fully protected in relying upon), specifying the then unpaid amounts of the Allowed Professional Fees to be Withdrawn, and on the first business day after receipt of such Notice of Withdrawal, the Administrative Agent shall disburse funds from the DIP Term Loan Funding Account in an amount equal to the amount specified in such Notice of Withdrawal and (ii) the Carve Out Trigger Notice shall also constitute a demand to the Loan Parties to utilize all cash on hand as of such date and any available cash thereafter held by any Loan Party to fund a reserve in an amount equal to the then unpaid amounts of the Allowed Professional Fees. The Borrowers shall deposit and hold such amounts in the Segregated Operating Account in trust to pay such then unpaid Allowed Professional Fees (the “Pre-Carve Out Trigger Notice Reserve”) prior to any and all other claims. On the Termination Declaration Date, if the amounts available in the Segregated Operating Account are insufficient to fund the amount of the Post Carve Out Trigger Notice Cap and then only to the extent of such shortfall, the Borrower Agent may deliver a Notice of Withdrawal to the Administrative Agent (which Notice of Withdrawal the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall be fully protected in relying upon), specifying the amount of the Post Carve Out Trigger Notice Cap to be Withdrawn, and on the first Business Day after receipt of such Notice of Withdrawal, the Administrative Agent shall disburse funds from the DIP Term Loan Funding Account in an amount equal to the amount specified in such Notice of Withdrawal. The Loan Parties shall deposit and hold such amounts in the Segregated Operating Account in trust to pay such Allowed Professional Fees benefiting from the Post-Carve Out Trigger Notice Cap (the “Post Carve Out Trigger Notice Reserve” and, together with the Pre-Carve Out Trigger Notice Reserve, the “Carve Out Reserves”) prior to any and all other claims. The Administrative Agent shall fund the Carve Out Reserves from the DIP Term Loan Funding Account in accordance with this Section 10.05(e), notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or the Interim Bankruptcy Court Order to the contrary, including with respect to the existence of a Default or Event of Default, the failure of the Borrowers to satisfy any or all of the conditions precedent for Withdrawals under this Agreement, any termination of this Agreement following an Event of Default, or the occurrence of the Maturity Date. All funds in the Pre-Carve Out Trigger Notice Reserve shall be used by the Borrowers first to pay the obligations set forth in clauses (i) through (iii) of the definition of Carve Out set forth above (the “Pre-Carve Out Amounts”), and then to pay the Post-Carve Out Trigger Notice Cap, until each is paid in full. All funds in the Post-Carve Out Trigger Notice Reserve shall be used by the Borrowers first to pay the obligations set forth in clause (iv) of the definition of Carve Out set forth above (the “Post-Carve Out Amounts”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or the Bankruptcy Court Orders, following delivery of a Carve Out Trigger Notice, the

- 104-

Administrative Agent shall not sweep or foreclose on cash (including cash received as a result of the sale or other disposition of any assets) of the Loan Parties until the Carve Out Reserves have been fully funded in accordance with this Section 10.05(e). The Loan Parties hereby grant, and the Administrative Agent, on its behalf and on behalf of the Lenders, shall have, a first priority security interest in any residual interest in the Carve Out Reserves held in the Segregated Operating Account. Further, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Interim Bankruptcy Court Order, except in respect of the ABL Agent and the ABL Lenders, (i) disbursements by the Borrowers from the Carve Out Reserves shall not constitute the Term Loan or increase or reduce the Term Commitment, (ii) the failure of the Carve Out Reserves to satisfy in full the Allowed Professional Fees shall not affect the priority of the Carve Out, (iii) in no way shall the Budget, Carve Out, Post-Carve Out Trigger Notice Cap, Carve Out Reserves, or any of the foregoing be construed as a cap or limitation on the amount of the Allowed Professional Fees due and payable by the Borrowers, and (iv) the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to fund any amount in excess of the amounts then held in the DIP Term Loan Funding Account. For the avoidance of doubt and notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other order of the Bankruptcy Court, or in the Prepetition Term Loan Documents, or in the Loan Documents, except for the ABL Collateral, the Carve Out shall be senior to all liens and claims securing the Term Facility and the adequate protection in respect of the Prepetition Obligations under the Prepetition Term Loan Documents, and any and all other forms of adequate protection, liens, or claims securing the Term Loan or the Prepetition Obligations under the Prepetition Term Loan Documents.

(f) All of the liens described herein with respect to the assets of the Obligors shall be effective and perfected as of the Interim Bankruptcy Court Order Entry Date and without the necessity of the execution or filing of mortgages, security agreements, pledge agreements, financing statements or other agreements.

Section 10.06 Grants, Rights and Remedies. The Liens and security interests granted pursuant to Section 10.04(a) hereof and the administrative priority and lien priority granted pursuant to Section 10.05 hereof may be independently granted by the Loan Documents and by other Loan Documents hereafter entered into. This Agreement, the Bankruptcy Court Orders and such other Loan Documents supplement each other, and the grants, priorities, rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereunder and thereunder are cumulative.

Section 10.07 No Filings Required. The Liens and security interests referred to herein shall be deemed valid and perfected by entry of the Interim Bankruptcy Court Order or the Final Bankruptcy Court Order, as the case may be, and entry of the Interim Bankruptcy Court Order shall have occurred on or before the date of the Term Borrowing. The Administrative Agent shall not be required to file any financing statements, mortgages, notices of Lien or similar instruments in any jurisdiction or filing office, take possession or control of any Collateral, or take any other action in order to validate or perfect the Lien and security interest granted by or pursuant to this Agreement, the Interim Bankruptcy Court Order or the Final Bankruptcy Court Order, as the case may be, or any other Loan Document.

Section 10.08 Survival. The Liens, lien priority, administrative priorities and other rights and remedies granted to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders pursuant to this Agreement, the Bankruptcy Court Orders and the other Loan Documents (specifically including, but not

- 105-

limited to, the existence, perfection and priority of the Liens and security interests provided herein and therein, and the administrative priority provided herein and therein) shall not be modified, altered or impaired in any manner by any other financing or extension of credit or incurrence of Indebtedness by the Borrowers (pursuant to Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise), or by any dismissal or conversion of any of the Chapter 11 Cases, or by any other act or omission whatsoever. Without limitation, notwithstanding any such order, financing, extension, incurrence, dismissal, conversion, act or omission:

(a) except with respect to the Carve-Out as set forth in Section 10.05, no costs or expenses of administration which have been or may be incurred in the Chapter 11 Cases or any conversion of the same or in any other proceedings related thereto, and no priority claims, are or will be prior to or on parity with any claim of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders against the Borrowers in respect of any Obligation;

(b) the Liens in favor of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders set forth in Section 10.04(a) hereof shall constitute valid and perfected first priority Liens and security interests, and shall be prior to all other Liens and security interests, now existing or hereafter arising, in favor of any other creditor or any other Person whatsoever (subject to Section 10.05 and any action required under foreign law with respect to the Capital Stock of Foreign Subsidiaries solely to the extent that such foreign law is applicable); and

(c) the Liens in favor of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents shall continue to be valid and perfected without the necessity that the Administrative Agent file financing statements or mortgages, take possession or control of any Collateral, or otherwise perfect its Lien under applicable non-bankruptcy law.

GUARANTEE

Section 11.01 Guarantee.

(a) Each of the Guarantors hereby, jointly and severally, unconditionally and irrevocably, guarantees, as primary obligor and not as surety merely, to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns, the prompt and complete payment and performance by Borrowers and by each other Guarantor when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of the Obligations.

For purposes of determining the net worth of any Guarantor in connection with the foregoing, all guarantees of such Guarantor other than the guarantee under this Article 11 will be deemed to be enforceable and payable after the guaranty under this Article 11.

(c) Each Guarantor agrees that the Obligations may at any time and from time to time be incurred or permitted in an amount exceeding the maximum liability of such Guarantor under Section 11.01(b) without impairing the guarantee contained in this Article 11 or affecting the rights and remedies of any Secured Party hereunder.

(d) The guarantee contained in this Article 11 shall remain in full force and effect until the earlier to occur of (i) the date on which the Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations not yet due and payable) are paid in full or otherwise satisfied, (ii) as to any Guarantor, the sale or other disposition of all of the Equity Interests of such Guarantor permitted under this Agreement or (iii) as to any Guarantor, such Guarantor becomes an Excluded Subsidiary not in contravention of the terms of this Agreement.

(e) No payment made by Borrowers, any of the Guarantors, any other guarantor or any other Person or received or collected by any Secured Party from Borrowers, any of the Guarantors, any other guarantor or any other Person by virtue of any action or proceeding or any set-off or appropriation or application at any time or from time to time in reduction of or in payment of the Obligations shall be deemed to modify, reduce, release or otherwise affect the liability of any Guarantor hereunder which shall, notwithstanding any such payment, remain liable for the Obligations up to the maximum liability of such Guarantor hereunder until the earlier to occur of (i) the date the Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations not yet due and payable) are paid in full or otherwise satisfied, (ii) the sale or other disposition of all of the Equity Interests of such Guarantor permitted under this Agreement or (iii) as to any Guarantor, such Guarantor becomes an Excluded Subsidiary not in contravention of the terms of this Agreement.

(a) If such payment is made by a Borrower or from its property, then, if and to the extent such payment is made on account of the Obligations arising from or relating to the Term Loan made to such Borrower, such Borrower shall not be entitled, until the Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations not yet due and payable) are paid in full or otherwise satisfied, (A) to demand or enforce reimbursement or contribution in respect of such payment from any other Loan Party or (B) to be subrogated to any claim, interest, right or remedy of any Secured Party against any other Person, including any other Loan Party or its property.

- 107-

(b) If such payment is made by a Guarantor or from its property in respect of Obligations of Borrowers or another Guarantor, such Guarantor shall be entitled, subject to and upon payment in full or satisfaction of the Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations not yet due and payable), (A) to demand and enforce reimbursement for the full amount of such payment from any Borrower or such other Guarantor, as applicable and (B) to demand and enforce contribution in respect of such payment from each other Guarantor which has not paid its fair share of such payment, as necessary to ensure that (after giving effect to any enforcement of reimbursement rights provided hereby) each Guarantor pays its fair share of the unreimbursed portion of such payment. For this purpose, the fair share of each Guarantor as to any unreimbursed payment shall be determined based on an equitable apportionment of such unreimbursed payment among all Guarantors based on the relative value of their assets and any other equitable considerations deemed appropriate by the court.

(c) If and whenever (after payment in full or satisfaction of the Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations not yet due and payable)) any right of reimbursement or contribution becomes enforceable by any Loan Party against any other Loan Party under Sections 11.02(a) and 11.02(b), such Loan Party shall be entitled, subject to and upon payment in full or satisfaction of the Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations not yet due and payable), to be subrogated (equally and ratably with all other Loan Parties entitled to reimbursement or contribution from any other Loan Party as set forth in this Section 11.02) to any security interest that may then be held by the Administrative Agent upon any Collateral granted to it in this Agreement. Such right of subrogation shall be enforceable solely against the Loan Parties, and not against the Secured Parties, and neither the Administrative Agent nor any other Secured Party shall have any duty whatsoever to warrant, ensure or protect any such right of subrogation or to obtain, perfect, maintain, hold, enforce or retain any Collateral for any purpose related to any such right of subrogation. If subrogation is demanded by any Loan Party, then (after payment in full or satisfaction of the Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations not yet due and payable)) the Administrative Agent shall deliver (at the Loan Parties’ sole expense) to the Loan Parties making such demand, or to a representative of such Loan Parties or of the Loan Parties generally, an instrument reasonably satisfactory to the Loan Parties transferring, on a quitclaim basis without any recourse, representation, warranty or obligation whatsoever, whatever security interest the Administrative Agent then may hold in whatever Collateral may then exist that was not previously released or disposed of by the Administrative Agent.

(d) All rights and claims arising under this Section 11.02 or based upon or relating to any other right of reimbursement, indemnification, contribution or subrogation that may at any time arise or exist in favor of any Loan Party as to any payment on account of the Obligations made by it or received or collected from its property shall be fully subordinated in all respects to the prior payment in full or satisfaction of all of the Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations not yet due and payable). Until payment in full or satisfaction of the Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations not yet due and payable), no Loan Party shall demand or receive any collateral

- 108-

security, payment or distribution whatsoever (whether in cash, property or securities or otherwise) on account of any such right or claim. To the extent permitted by law, if any such payment or distribution is made or becomes available to any Loan Party in any bankruptcy case or receivership, insolvency or liquidation proceeding, such payment or distribution shall be delivered by the person making such payment or distribution directly to the Administrative Agent, for application to the payment of the Obligations. If any such payment or distribution is received by any Loan Party, it shall be held by such Loan Party in trust, as trustee of an express trust for the benefit of the Secured Parties, and shall forthwith be transferred and delivered by such Loan Party to the Administrative Agent, in the exact form received and, if necessary, duly endorsed.

(e) The obligations of the Loan Parties under the Loan Documents, including their liability for the Obligations and the enforceability of the security interests granted thereby, are not contingent upon the validity, legality, enforceability, collectability or sufficiency of any right of reimbursement, contribution or subrogation arising under this Section 11.02. The invalidity, insufficiency, unenforceability or uncollectability of any such right shall not in any respect diminish, affect or impair any such obligation or any other claim, interest, right or remedy at any time held by any Secured Party against any Guarantor or its property. The Secured Parties make no representations or warranties in respect of any such right and shall have no duty to assure, protect, enforce or ensure any such right or otherwise relating to any such right.

(f) Each Loan Party reserves any and all other rights of reimbursement, contribution or subrogation at any time available to it as against any other Loan Party, but (i) the exercise and enforcement of such rights shall be subject to Section 11.02(d) and (ii) neither the Administrative Agent nor any other Secured Party shall ever have any duty or liability whatsoever in respect of any such right, except as provided in Section 11.02(c).

Section 11.03 Amendments, etc. with respect to the Obligations. Each Guarantor shall remain obligated hereunder notwithstanding that, without any reservation of rights against any Guarantor and without notice to or further assent by any Guarantor, any demand for payment of any of the Obligations made by any Secured Party may be rescinded by such Secured Party and any of the Obligations continued, and the Obligations, or the liability of any other Person upon or for any part thereof, or any collateral security or guarantee therefor or right of offset with respect thereto, may, from time to time, in whole or in part, be renewed, increased, extended, amended, modified, accelerated, compromised, waived, surrendered or released by any Secured Party, in each case, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, and this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any other documents executed and delivered in connection therewith or with any of the other Obligations may be amended, modified, supplemented or terminated, in whole or in part, as the Administrative Agent (or the Required Lenders or all Lenders, as the case may be) may deem advisable from time to time, and any collateral security, guarantee or right of offset at any time held by any Secured Party for the payment of the Obligations may be sold, exchanged, waived, surrendered or released.

When making any demand hereunder or otherwise pursuing its rights and remedies hereunder against any Guarantor, any Secured Party may, but shall be under no obligation to, make a similar demand on or otherwise pursue such rights and remedies as it may have against any Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person or against any collateral security or guarantee for the Obligations or any right of offset with respect thereto, and any failure by any Secured Party to make any such demand, to pursue such other rights or remedies or to collect any payments from any Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person or to realize upon any such collateral security or guarantee or to exercise any such right of offset, or any release of any Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person or any such collateral security, guarantee or right of offset, shall not relieve any Guarantor of any obligation or liability hereunder, and shall not impair or affect the rights and remedies, whether express, implied or available as a matter of law, of any Secured Party against any Guarantor. For the purposes hereof “demand” shall include the commencement and continuance of any legal proceedings.

Section 11.05 Reinstatement. The guarantee contained in this Article 11 shall continue to be effective, or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any of the Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by any Secured Party upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of any Borrower or any other Guarantor, or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, any Borrower or any other Guarantor or any substantial part of its property, or otherwise, all as though such payments had not been made.

To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of Borrowers is made to the Administrative Agent or any Lender, or the Administrative Agent or any Lender exercises its right of setoff, and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Administrative Agent or such Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, then (a) to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred and (b) each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent upon demand its applicable share (without duplication) of any amount so recovered from or repaid by the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Effective Rate from time to time in effect. The obligations of the Lenders under clause (b) of the preceding sentence shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

Section 12.06 Successors and Assigns.

(a) Successors and Assigns Generally. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that no Borrower may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Lender and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an assignee in accordance with the provisions of subsection (b) of this Section, (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of subsection (d) of this Section or (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of subsection (f) of this Section (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in subsection (d) of this Section and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Indemnitees and the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

(b) Assignments by Lenders. Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Term Commitment and the Term Loan at the time owing to it); provided that any such assignment shall be subject to the following conditions:

(i) Minimum Amounts.

- 118-

(A) In the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Term Loan, no minimum amount need be assigned; and

(B) in any case not described in subsection (b)(i)(A) of this Section, the aggregate amount of the Term Commitment (which for this purpose includes the Term Loan outstanding thereunder) or, if the Term Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Term Loan of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment, determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as of the Trade Date, shall not be less than $1,000,000 unless each of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default under Section 8.01(a) has occurred and is continuing, Borrower Agent otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided, however, that concurrent assignments to members of an Assignee Group and concurrent assignments from members of an Assignee Group to a single Eligible Assignee (or to an Eligible Assignee and members of its Assignee Group) will be treated as a single assignment for purposes of determining whether such minimum amount has been met.

(ii) Proportionate Amounts. Each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Term Loan or the Term Commitment assigned;

(iii) Required Consents. No consent shall be required for any assignment except to the extent required by subsection (b)(i)(B) of this Section and, in addition:

(A) the consent of Borrower Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required unless (1) an Event of Default under Section 8.01(a) has occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment or (2) such assignment is to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund; provided that Borrower Agent shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within ten Business Days after having received notice thereof; and

(B) the consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required if such assignment is to a Person that is not a Lender, an Affiliate of such Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to such Lender.

- 119-

(iv) Assignment and Assumption. The parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption via an electronic settlement system acceptable to the Administrative Agent (or, if previously agreed with the Administrative Agent, manually), together with a processing and recordation fee in the amount of $3,500; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to waive such processing and recordation fee in the case of any assignment. The assignee, if it is not a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire.

(v) No Assignment to Certain Persons. No such assignment shall be made to any Borrower or any of its Affiliates or Subsidiaries.

(vi) No Assignment to Natural Persons. No such assignment shall be made to a natural person.

(vii) [Reserved]

(c) Register. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of Borrowers (and such agency being solely for tax purposes), shall maintain at the Administrative Agent’s Office (which office shall be in the United States) a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Term Commitments of, and principal amounts (and stated interest) of the Term Loan owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest or demonstrable error, and Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by any Borrower and any Lender (with respect to such Lender’s entry), at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(d) Participations. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, Borrowers or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person, any Borrower or any of its Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Term Commitment and/or the Term Loan); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (iii) Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and (iv) no such participation shall be made to any Borrower or any of its Affiliates or Subsidiaries.

Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, waiver or other modification described in the first proviso to Section 12.01 that affects such Participant. Subject to subsection (e) of this Section, each

- 120-

Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01, 3.04 and 3.05 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to subsection (b) of this Section. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant shall also be entitled to the benefits of Section 12.08 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.11 as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of Borrowers (such agency being solely for tax purposes), maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Term Loan or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest or demonstrable error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

(e) Limitations upon Participant Rights. A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 3.01, 3.04 or 3.05 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with Borrowers’ prior written consent or except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation.

(f) Certain Pledges. Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

Section 12.07 Treatment of Certain Information; Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and to its and its Affiliates’ respective partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, trustees, advisors and representatives (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over it (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners), provided that the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as applicable, agrees that it will notify Borrower Agent as soon as practicable in the event of any such disclosure by such Person (other than at the request of a regulatory authority) unless such notification is prohibited by law, rule or regulation, (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, provided that the Administrative

- 121-

Agent or such Lender, as applicable, agrees that it will notify Borrower Agent as soon as practicable in the event of any such disclosure by such Person (other than at the request of a regulatory authority) unless such notification is prohibited by law, rule or regulation, (d) to any other party hereto, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any assignee of or Participant (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential) in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential) in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or any Eligible Assignee invited to be a Lender or (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) (it being understood that the Person to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to Borrowers and their respective obligations, (g) with the consent of Borrower Agent or (h) to the extent such Information (x) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or obligation of confidentiality owed to any Borrower, its Subsidiaries or their respective Affiliates or (y) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any of their respective Affiliates on a non-confidential basis from a source other than a Borrower or any other Loan Party (so long as such source is not known (after due inquiry) to the Administrative Agent, such Lender, or any of their respective Affiliates, as applicable, to be bound by confidentiality obligations to a Borrower, any Subsidiary thereof or any of their respective Affiliates).

For purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from a Loan Party or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof relating to a Loan Party or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof or any of their respective businesses other than any such information that is publically available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by a Loan Party thereof other than as a result of a breach of this Section or any other confidentiality obligation owed to any Loan Party or their Affiliates. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.

Each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders acknowledges that (a) the Information may include MNPI concerning a Loan Party or a Subsidiary thereof, as the case may be, (b) it has developed compliance procedures regarding the use of MNPI and (c) it will handle such MNPI in accordance with applicable Law, including United States Federal and state securities Laws.

Section 12.08 Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender and each of its respective Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, after obtaining the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or

- 122-

special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any time held and other obligations (in whatever currency) (other than escrow, payroll, petty cash or tax accounts) at any time owing by such Lender or any such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of Borrowers against any and all of the obligations of Borrowers now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such obligations of Borrowers may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch or office of such Lender different from the branch or office holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness. The rights of each Lender and its respective Affiliates under this Section are in addition to all other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender or its respective Affiliates may have under applicable Law or otherwise. Each Lender agrees to notify Borrower Agent and the Administrative Agent promptly after any such setoff and application; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application. No amounts set off from any Guarantor shall be applied to any Excluded Swap Obligations of such Guarantor.

Section 12.09 Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by applicable Law (the “Maximum Rate”). If the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the unpaid principal of the Term Loan or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to Borrowers. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received by the Administrative Agent or any Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest, (b) exclude optional prepayments and the effects thereof and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations hereunder.

Section 12.10 Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by facsimile or other electronic imaging means shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

Section 12.11 Survival of Representations and Warranties. All covenants, representations and warranties made hereunder and in any other Loan Document or other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection herewith or therewith shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and thereof. Such representations and warranties have been or will be relied upon by the Administrative Agent and each Lender, regardless of any investigation made by the Administrative Agent or any Lender or on their behalf and

- 123-

notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default at the time of the Credit Extension, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the Term Loan or any other Obligation hereunder shall remain unpaid or unsatisfied (other than contingent indemnification obligations not yet due and payable).

Section 12.12 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, then, to the fullest extent permitted by law, (a) the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not be affected or impaired thereby and (b) the parties shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions. The invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

Section 12.13 Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 3.04, or if Borrowers are required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.01, or if any Lender shall have not consented to any proposed amendment, modification, termination, waiver or consent requiring the consent of all Lenders or all affected Lenders as contemplated by Section 12.01 and the consent of the Required Lenders has been obtained, then Borrowers may, at their sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 12.06), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan Documents to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if such Lender accepts such assignment), provided that:

(a) Borrowers shall have paid to the Administrative Agent the assignment fee specified in Section 12.06(b);

(b) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Term Loan, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts under Section 3.05) from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or Borrowers (in the case of all other amounts);

(c) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 3.04 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 3.01, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter; and

(d) such assignment does not conflict with applicable Laws.

A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling Borrowers to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply. Each Lender hereby grants to the Administrative Agent an irrevocable power of attorney (which power is coupled with an interest) to execute and deliver, on behalf of such Lender, as assignor, any Assignment and Assumption necessary to effectuate any assignment of such Lender’s interests hereunder in the circumstances contemplated by this Section 12.13.

- 124-

The obligations of Borrowers in respect of any such sum due from it to the 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 Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, of any sum adjudged to be so due in the Judgment Currency, the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, 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 Administrative Agent or any Lender from Borrowers in the Agreement Currency, Borrowers agree, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, against such loss.

Lead & Hazardous Substances Investigation/Brownfields Cleanup Program

The Company subsidiary Buffalo China, Inc. (“Buffalo China”) historically manufactured ceramics at a former facility in Buffalo, NY for approximately 70 years. The former Buffalo China site is improved with an approximately 4-acre manufacturing building, which is connected to a former warehouse to the east. A warehouse building (the “Harrison Street Warehouse”), which was historically used for the manufacture of mirrors, is located on the northwest portion of the site. Soil contamination was first discovered in 2004 during a Phase II investigation conducted in conjunction with Buffalo China’s sale of the property to Niagara Ceramics, and a Supplemental Site Investigation was conducted at the site in 2006. These investigations identified the presence of VOCs and lead in on-site soils, particularly, in an area located near the south side of the Harrison Street Warehouse, and the presence of TCE and its degradation byproducts in groundwater (TCE has been detected at maximum concentration approximately 80,000 times the applicable groundwater standard). Buffalo China enrolled the site into the New York Department of Environmental Conservation (“NYSDEC”) Brownfield Cleanup Program (“BCP”) in May 2007. Conestoga-Rovers & Associates (“CRA”) has been managing the cleanup on behalf of the Company. CRA has established a vapor mitigation system for one off-site residence. One additional off-site residence remains to be sampled for soil vapor; however, CRA has not been able to procure access to the off-site location because of a recent sale of that property. The Company received a Certificate of Completion (“COC”) from the NYSDEC, dated December 18, 2012, stating that the Company has satisfactorily completed the remedial program at the former Buffalo China site. The Company is now eligible for Brownfield tax credits (NYS refundable tax credits) which are currently being assessed. The Company maintains a reserve of approximately $306,000 for this matter.

2.	Oneida Ltd. Knife Plant, Sherrill,

NY Brownfields Cleanup Program

Oneida formerly used the Sherrill Knife Plant for silverware manufacturing from approximately 1914 until 2006. Materials used at the site included various petroleum products, as well as TCE to clean oily parts. Soil and groundwater impacts were first discovered in 2005 during a Phase II investigation conducted by Haley & Aldrich. Two subsequent investigations were conducted by Haley & Aldrich and Plumley Engineering (“Plumley”) in 2006, which investigations identified several areas of concern, including TCE impacts to soil and groundwater; a widespread area of oily impacts; a small area of polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) impacted soils; an area of soils impacted by low levels of SVOCs and metals; and the presence of TCE in sediment within the adjacent Oneida Creek. In addition, VOCs were detected in sub-slab vapor samples at concentrations exceeding state screening levels. Oneida enrolled the site into the NYSDEC BCP in December 2009. In May of 2012, the Company submitted the final Remediation Alternatives Report (RAR) outlining recommended clean-up alternatives. The RAR was accepted by the NYSDEC in November of 2012. The NYSDEC has accepted the Company’s plan for remediation and on May 6, 2013 the Company’s Remedial Work Action Plan was submitted to the NYSDEC. The Company maintains a reserve of approximately $1.5MM for this matter.

3.	Leavens Awards, Inc., Attleboro MA

On April 18, 2005, Oneida received an invitation from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency”(EPA”) under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act to participate in a potential cleanup of Leavens Awards, Inc. (“Leavens Awards”), whose facility the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary Leavens Manufacturing Company, Inc. (“Leavens Manufacturing”) owned from 1973 to 1984. Leavens Awards purchased the assets of Leavens Manufacturing in 1984 and sometime thereafter performed a cleanup pursuant to a consent order issued by the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection. Both Leavens Manufacturing and Leavens Awards were dissolved in 1998. The Company responded to the EPA request that it was not a potentially responsible party (“PRP”) based on the fact that it had no relationship to the site other than as the prior owner of the shares of the now-defunct Leavens Manufacturing. There has been no further communication with EPA on this matter.

4.	Shpack Landfill Superfund Site — Norton/Attleboro MA

On May 18, 2004, Oneida received a Request for Information (“RFI”) pursuant to Section 104 of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (“CERCLA”) from EPA regarding the Shpack Landfill site. The EPA sought to determine whether Leavens Manufacturing, the dissolved, former Oneida subsidiary, may be a PRP relative to that site for waste which might have been sent to the landfill. Oneida filed its response to the RFI on August 14, 2004, pointing to the fact that the landfill had operated between 1946 and 1965, closing 7 years before Oneida purchased its subsidiary Leavens Manufacturing. There has been no further communication with EPA on this matter.

5.09-2

5.	H&M Drum Site (The Ledge Site), Dartmouth MA

On December 22, 2005, the Company’s outside counsel received correspondence requesting $4,000 for de minimis contribution to the cleanup of the H&M Drum Site. It was alleged that Leavens Manufacturing sent 4 drums indirectly through Resolve, Inc. to the H&M Drum Site. For the same reason Oneida declined to participate in any Leavens Awards cleanup, Oneida did not participate in the Ledge Site cleanup because it was not a PRP with respect to the H&M Drum Site or the Ledge Site.

It appears that cleanup began in 2006 by the Trustees of the H&M Drum Site Trust Fund and the PRP Group and that the Ledge Site is now in the compliance monitoring stage. No further communication with respect to this site has been received by Oneida.

6.	Tannery Road Municipal Landfill—Rome, NY

The Tannery Road Landfill was closed and finally capped in late 1997. In October, 2001, Oneida received an RFI from DEC regarding any waste it may have disposed of at the landfill. On November 9, 2001, Oneida provided a response to the RFI, providing evidence that Oneida did not dispose of any hazardous wastes at the site. On November 21, 2001, Oneida wrote to the NYS Attorney General (“AG”) reiterating that it did not dispose of hazardous wastes at the landfill and was, therefore, not a PRP. Following several conversations with the NYSDEC subsequent to the submission of the response to the RFI, in December 2001, the NYSDEC verbally informed Oneida that it would not be pursued as a PRP. No further communication with respect to this site has been received by Oneida.

7.	Oneida Main Plant, Sherrill NY

Oneida’s main manufacturing facility covered approximately 92 acres in Sherrill, NY. Based on environmental site assessments between 1992 and 1994, in 1994, the DEC issued “no further action” letters regarding two lagoons at the facility that had been listed on New York State’s Registry of Inactive Hazardous Waste Disposal Sites. In December 2004, a Phase I Site Assessment was conducted by Haley & Aldridge. The bulk of the assets were subsequently sold to Sherrill Manufacturing, Inc. in 2005. The Asset Purchase Agreement (“APA”) contained a general short-term environmental indemnity (3 years) that is no longer in effect and an indefinite indemnity for a potential TCE issue described in the 2004 Phase 1. Oneida has not received any claims regarding this issue and there have been no reportable events or other notifications.

Oneida retained approximately 12 acres of the site along the northern boundary. The area was retained to provide access and buffer to land leased by the Company to the Sterling Power Partners co-generation facility, which land was subsequently sold to Sterling’s owner in 2010. There have been no claims or reportable events with respect to the retained acreage, however, it may be the site of another historic landfill which was also described in the 2004 Phase 1. This land and the 2-acre Knife Plant site are held in title by Oneida Silversmiths.

8.	EPA Information Request — Lancaster OH

On February 29, 2012, the Company received a request from U.S. EPA Region V to provide information pursuant to Section 114 of the Clean Air Act (“CAA”) relating to the Company’s manufacturing facility in Lancaster, OH. U.S. EPA requested information to determine whether the Lancaster facility’s emission sources comply with the CAA. Specifically, U.S. EPA requested information regarding the glass melting furnaces at the Lancaster facility and any modifications that have been made to the furnaces since 1990.

The Company responded to the information request on April 30, 2012 and May 30, 2012. On November 15, 2012, Anchor received from U.S. EPA an additional Section 114 information reqUue.Ss.t. EPA requested additional information related to CAA compliance, and required an air emission stack test on one of the facility’s glass melting furnaces. The Company responded to the request on December 17, 2012, and conducted the stack testing on January 31, 2013.

The stack test demonstrated compliance with permit limits for all species. The Lancaster facility was previously investigated by U.S. EPA Region V in 2005 regarding the installation of furnace #3 done in 1993 when the facility was owned and operated by Newell-Rubbermaid. That previous investigation concluded with a “No Further Action” determination by U.S. EPA in February 2006. The Company is not aware of any significant changes to the Lancaster facility’s furnaces other than the 1993 installation furnace #3 for which a No Further Action determination was made. Accordingly, although the ultimate outcome and costs are unknown at this time, the Company does not currently anticipate material capital costs or penalties associated with the current EPA information request.
