Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

Overview

On March 25, 2010, BioScrip, Inc. (referred to herein as “the Company,” “we,” “us” and “our”) completed its acquisition of Critical Homecare Solutions Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Target”). In connection with the financing of the acquisition, the Company entered into certain agreements which are summarized below. A copy of the press release announcing the completion of the acquisition is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated by reference herein.

The New Credit Facility

On March 25, 2010, the Company entered into a credit agreement (the “New Credit Facility”) by and among the Company, as borrower, all of its subsidiaries as subsidiary guarantors thereto, the lenders party thereto, Jefferies Finance LLC, as lead arranger, as book manager, as administrative agent for the lenders, as collateral agent for the secured parties and as syndication agent, Compass Bank, as a co-documentation agent, GE Capital Corporation, a co-documentation agent, Healthcare Finance Group, LLC, as collateral manager, HFG Healthco-4, LLC, as swingline lender for the lenders, and Healthcare Finance Group, LLC, as issuing bank for the lenders. The New Credit Facility consists of a $100.0 million senior secured term loan facility (the “Term Loan”) and $50.0 million senior secured revolving credit facility (the “Revolver”). The Term Loan matures five years after funding and has a repayment schedule with quarterly amortization equal to 2.5%, 5.0%, 7.5%, 10.0% and 12.5% per annum of its principal amount in years one through five, with the balance due at maturity. The Revolver will be available for five years after the closing of the Merger (as defined below). The amount of borrowings which may be made under the Revolver will be based on a borrowing base to be comprised of specified percentages of eligible receivables and eligible inventory, up to a maximum of $50.0 million. If the amount of borrowings outstanding under the Revolver exceeds the borrowing base then in effect, then the Company will be required to repay such borrowings in an amount sufficient to eliminate such excess. Additionally, if there are no borrowings outstanding under the Revolver, and the principal amount of the Term Loan then outstanding exceeds the borrowing base then in effect, then the Company will be required to repay the Term Loan in an amount sufficient to eliminate such excess. The Revolver includes $5.0 million of availability for letters of credit and $5.0 million of availability for swingline loans. Interest on both the Term Loan and advances under the Revolver will be based on a base rate or Eurodollar rate plus an applicable margin of 3.0% and 4.0%, respectively, with the base rate and Eurodollar rate having floors of 3.0% and 2.0%, respectively. In the event of any default, the interest rate may be increased to 2.0% over the rate applicable to base rate loans. The Revolver also carries a commitment fee of 0.75% per annum, payable quarterly in arrears, on the unused portion of the credit line.

Borrowings under the New Credit Facility will be subject to mandatory prepayment upon the occurrence of certain events, including the issuance of certain securities, the incurrence of certain debt and the sale or other disposition of certain assets. In addition, borrowings under the New Credit Facility will be subject to mandatory prepayment in the event the Company has excess cash flow, as defined in the New Credit Facility. Both the Term Loan and the Revolver have been guaranteed by substantially all of the Company’s domestic subsidiaries and secured by first priority security interests in substantially all of the Company’s assets (including the capital stock of our subsidiaries) and all such subsidiary guarantors. The New Credit Facility includes customary affirmative and negative covenants and events of default, as well as financial covenants relating to a maximum total leverage ratio and a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio. Negative covenants include, among other limitations, limitations on additional debt, liens, negative pledges, investments, dividends, stock repurchases, asset sales and affiliate transactions. Events of default include, among other events, non-performance of covenants, breach of representations, cross-default to other material debt, bankruptcy and insolvency, material judgments and changes in control.

Cautionary Statements

The representations, warranties and covenants made by the parties in the agreement documenting the New Credit Facility are qualified by information in disclosure schedules that the parties exchanged in connection with the execution of the agreement. Representations and warranties may be used as a tool to allocate risks between the parties, including where the parties do not have complete knowledge of all facts. Accordingly, investors should not rely on the representations, warranties and covenants or any descriptions thereof as characterizations of the actual state of facts or condition of the Company or any of the Company’s affiliates.

This description of the New Credit Facility is qualified in its entirety by the New Credit Facility filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, which is incorporated herein by reference.

Security Agreement

In connection with the New Credit Facility, on March 25, 2010, the Company entered into a security agreement (the “Security Agreement”), by and among the Company and the other guarantors from time to time party thereto, as pledgors, assignors and debtors (collectively, the “Pledgors”) and Jefferies Finance LLC, in its capacity as collateral agent pursuant to the New Credit Facility, as pledgee, assignee and secured party. Pursuant to the Security Agreement, the Pledgors each pledged a lien on and interest in and to all of the right, title and interest of such Pledgor in the Pledged Collateral (as defined in the Security Agreement) as collateral security for the payment and performance in full of all the secured obligations under the New Credit Facility.

This description of the Security Agreement is qualified in its entirety by the Security Agreement filed as Exhibit 10.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, which is incorporated herein by reference.

Indenture and Notes

On March 25, 2010, the Company also issued $225.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 10 ¹ / 4 % Senior Notes due 2015 (the “Notes”), which mature on October 1, 2015, pursuant to an indenture, dated as of March 25, 2010 (the “Indenture”), by and among the Company, the Guarantors (as defined below) and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”). The Notes have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) or the securities laws of any other jurisdiction, but we intend to make an offer to exchange the Notes for registered, publicly tradable notes with substantially identical terms as the Notes in accordance with the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement described below. The Notes were sold to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A and Regulation S under the Securities Act. The following is a brief description of the material provisions of the Indenture and the Notes.

•

Interest . Interest on the Notes is payable semiannually on April 1 and October 1 of each year, commencing on October 1, 2010.

•

Guarantees . The Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, on a senior unsecured basis by the Company’s existing direct and indirect domestic restricted subsidiaries and will be guaranteed by future additional domestic restricted subsidiaries (the “Guarantors” and such guarantees, the “Guarantees”).

•

Ranking . The Notes and the Guarantees will rank equal in right of payment to all of the Company’s and the Guarantors’ existing and future senior unsecured indebtedness and rank senior in right of payment to all of the Company’s future subordinated indebtedness. The Notes and the Guarantees will be effectively subordinated to the Company’s and the Guarantors’ existing and future secured indebtedness, including the indebtedness under the New Credit Facility with respect to the assets securing such debt.

•

Optional Redemption . On or after April 1, 2013, the Company may redeem some or all of the Notes at a price of (i) 105.125% of the principal amount of the Notes if redeemed before October 1, 2014; and (ii) 100.000% of the principal amount of the Notes if redeemed on or after October 1, 2014, plus accrued and unpaid interest and liquidated damages, if any, on the Notes redeemed, to the date of redemption. Prior to April 1, 2013, the Company may redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes at a redemption price of 110.250% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest and liquidated damages, if any, to the redemption date, with the net cash proceeds of certain equity offerings. In addition, the Company may, at its option, redeem some or all of the Notes at any time prior to April 1, 2013, by paying a redemption price which includes a “make whole” premium.

•

Change of Control Offer . If the Company experiences certain change-of-control events, the holders of the Notes will have the right to require the Company to purchase their Notes at a price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of purchase.

•

Asset Sale Offer . Upon certain asset sales, the Company may be required to offer to use the net proceeds of the asset sale to purchase a portion of the Notes at 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of purchase.

•

Other Covenants . The Indenture contains certain covenants limiting the Company’s ability and the ability of its domestic restricted subsidiaries to (subject to certain exceptions): (i) incur or guarantee additional indebtedness or issue certain preferred stock; (ii) transfer or sell assets; (iii) make certain investments; (iv) pay dividends or distributions, redeem subordinated indebtedness or make other restricted payments; (v) create or incur liens; (vi) incur dividend or other payment restrictions affecting certain subsidiaries; (vii) enter into agreements that restrict dividends from subsidiaries; (viii) issue capital stock of the Company’s subsidiaries; (ix) consummate a merger, consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets; and (x) enter into transactions with affiliates.

•

Events of Default . The Indenture also provides for customary events of default which, if any of them occurs, would permit or require the principal of and accrued interest on the Notes to become or to be declared due and payable.

The description of the Indenture and the Notes is qualified in its entirety by the Indenture and Form of 10 ¹ / 4 % Senior Note due 2015, filed as Exhibit 4.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, which are incorporated herein by reference.

Amendment to PVA and Intercreditor Agreement

On March 25, 2010, the prime vendor agreement, effective as of August 25, 2009, by and among AmerisourceBergen Drug Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“ABDC”) and the Company and certain subsidiaries of the Company (as amended, the “PVA”), was amended to modify the scope of the security interest in the collateral granted under the PVA to provide ABDC with a lien on the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ inventory, accounts and proceeds. On March 25, 2010, Jefferies Finance LLC, as agent for the first priority secured parties, and ABDC entered into an intercreditor agreement (the “Intercreditor Agreement”) pursuant to which ABDC has agreed to subordinate the lien securing the Company’s obligations under the PVA to the liens securing the New Credit Facility.

This description of the Amendment to the PVA and the Intercreditor Agreement is qualified in its entirety by the Amendment to the PVA and the Intercreditor Agreement filed as Exhibits 10.3 and 10.4 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, which are incorporated herein by reference.

Registration Rights Agreement

On March 25, 2010, BioScrip, the Guarantors and Jefferies & Company, Inc. entered into a registration rights agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”). Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, BioScrip and the Guarantors have agreed to file a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Upon the effectiveness of the registration statement, BioScrip and the Guarantors will offer to the holders of the Notes registered, publicly tradable notes that have substantially identical terms as the Notes. If the Company fails to satisfy its obligations under the Registration Rights Agreement we may be required to pay additional interest on the Notes.

This description of the Registration Rights Agreement is qualified in its entirety by the Registration Rights Agreement filed as Exhibit 10.5 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, which is incorporated herein by reference.

Warrant Agreement

In connection with the consummation of the Merger, on March 25, 2010, the Company entered into the Warrant Agreement with the Target Stockholders and an optionholder of the Target (the “Warrant Agreement”) providing for the issuance of warrants (the “Warrants”) representing the right to purchase, in the aggregate, 3,400,945 shares of Company Common Stock (as defined below) at the effective time of the Merger.

The Warrants may be exercised at any time prior to 5:00 p.m., eastern time, on March 25, 2015 (the “expiration time”) upon the payment of the exercise price for each share of Company Common Stock with respect to which the Warrants are then being exercised. The initial exercise price is equal to $10.00 per share, subject to adjustment. Upon the exercise of any Warrants, a warrantholder may pay the applicable exercise price in cash or by “net exercise.” Any Warrants issued under the Warrant Agreement will be fully exercised pursuant to the terms thereof, without the need for any action by the holder of such Warrants, immediately prior to the expiration time if the resulting value upon such automatic exercise would be greater than zero. The Warrants are subject to stock-based and price-based anti-dilution provisions set forth in the Warrant Agreement.

This description of the Warrant Agreement is qualified in its entirety by the Warrant Agreement filed as Exhibit 4.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, which is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 1.02 Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement

On March 25, 2010, contemporaneously with the execution and delivery of the New Credit Facility, the Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement, dated as of September 26, 2007, by and among BioScrip Pharmacy Services, Inc., BioScrip Infusion Services, Inc., BioScrip Pharmacy (NY), Inc., BioScrip PBM Services, LLC, BioScrip Pharmacy, Inc., Natural Living, Inc., BioScrip Infusion Services, LLC and Bradhurst Specialty Pharmacy, Inc., as Borrowers, and HFG Healthco-4 LLC, as Lender, was terminated and all amounts outstanding thereunder were repaid. The Company incurred no early termination penalties in connection with the termination of the agreement.

Item 2.01 Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

On March 25, 2010, pursuant to an agreement and plan of merger (the “Merger Agreement”) dated as of January 24, 2010 by and among the Company, Camelot Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Merger Sub”), the Target, Kohlberg Investors V, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, in its capacity as the Stockholders’ Representative and as a stockholder (“Kohlberg”), Kohlberg Partners V, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, Kohlberg Offshore Investors V, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, Kohlberg TE Investors V, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, KOCO Investors V, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, Robert Cucuel, Mary Jane Graves, Nitin Patel, Joey Ryan, Blackstone Mezzanine Partners II L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, Blackstone Mezzanine Holdings II L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, and S.A.C. Domestic Capital Funding, Ltd., a Cayman Islands limited company (collectively, the “Target Stockholders”), the Target merged with and into Merger Sub (the “Merger”). As a result of the Merger, the separate corporate existence of the Target ceased and Merger Sub is continuing as the surviving corporation of the Merger and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company under the name “CHS Holdings, Inc.” In connection with the Merger, pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, the Company paid a total purchase price of approximately $347 million (plus Warrants) for the acquisition of the Target as follows:

•

cash of approximately $114 million;

•

the repayment of approximately $123.9 of indebtedness of the Target (net of Target’s cash);

•

approximately 13.1 shares of common stock, $0.0001 par value, of the Company (the “Company Common Stock”) having an aggregate value of approximately $109.5 million based on the Company’s closing stock price of $8.35 on March 25, 2010, the date of the consummation of the Merger; and

•

Warrants.

At the closing of the Merger, the Company assumed and adopted the Target’s 2006 Equity Incentive Plan, as amended (the “Stock Option Plan”). With respect to the right to purchase the Target Common Stock under the Stock Option Plan (the “Options”) held by the top five executives of the Target, Options representing the right to acquire an aggregate of 716,086 shares of Company Common Stock rolled over into the Stock Option Plan assumed by the Company at the closing of the Merger, and all remaining Options were cashed out in connection with the Merger.

At the Stockholders’ Meeting (as defined below), the stockholders of the Company approved and adopted a proposal to issue the Company Common Stock, including the Company Common Stock to be issued upon the conversion of the Warrants.

A total of 2,696,516 shares of Company Common Stock (of the total of approximately 13.1 million shares that were issued in connection with the Merger) were deposited into escrow and will be available to satisfy any indemnity to the Company under the Merger Agreement.

A copy of the Company’s press releases, dated March 25, 2010 announcing the completion of the acquisition of the Target is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligations

The disclosure provided under Item 1.01 of this Form 8-K is incorporated by reference into this Item 2.03 as if fully set forth herein.

Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities

The information regarding the issuance of shares of Company Common Stock set forth in Item 1.01 above is incorporated herein by reference.

The shares of Company Common Stock and Warrants issued to the Target Stockholders in connection with the Merger were offered and sold in reliance upon the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(2) under the Securities Act. The offer and sale of shares of Company Common Stock and Warrants to the Target Stockholders, as a portion of the consideration for the Merger, was a privately negotiated transaction with the Target Stockholders, who are all accredited investors, that did not involve a general solicitation. The certificates representing the shares of Company Common Stock and Warrants issued in connection with the Merger contain a legend to the effect that such shares are not registered under the Securities Act and may not be sold or transferred except pursuant to a registration which has become effective under the Securities Act or pursuant to an exemption from such registration.

Item 3.03. Material Modification to Rights of Security Holders.

The information included in Item 1.01 above is incorporated by reference into this Item 3.03.

Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Principal Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Principal Officers

As of the effective time of the Merger, the board of directors of the Company expanded to 10 directors from nine directors (with a then-existing vacancy). The vacancy created by the increase in the authorization of the additional directorship and previously existing vacancy will be filled by Messrs. Samuel P. Frieder and Gordon H. Woodward in accordance with the stockholders’ agreement (the “Stockholders’ Agreement”) with the Target Stockholders and certain optionholders of CHS.

For as long as Kohlberg has the right to designate one or more directors on the Company’s board of directors pursuant to the terms of the Stockholders’ Agreement, at least one of those directors will be entitled to representation on each of the Audit Committee, the Management Development and Compensation Committee and the Corporate Strategy Committee of the Company’s board of directors. Effective as of the effective time of the Merger, Mr. Frieder has been designated to serve on the Management Development and Compensation Committee and Mr. Woodward has been designated to serve on the Audit and Corporate Strategy Committees.

From 1988 to 1989 he was a senior associate in the Capital Funding Group at Security Pacific Business Credit.

The foregoing summary of certain provisions of the Stockholders’ Agreement is not intended to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the agreement, which was filed as Exhibit 10.1 of the Current Report on Form 8-K of the Company on January 27, 2010, and is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 5.07 Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.

On March 25, 2010, the Company held a special meeting of stockholders (the “Stockholders’ Meeting”) to vote on the following proposal:

To approve the issuance of up to approximately 12.9 million shares of Company Common Stock (subject to increase if net indebtedness of the Target is less than $132 million at closing), as well as 3,400,945 shares of Company Common Stock to be issued upon exercise of Warrants.

Since there were sufficient votes to approve the above proposal, a proposal to approve adjournment of the Stockholders’ Meeting was not voted on at the Stockholders’ Meeting. Set forth below are the final results of the vote on the proposal to approve the issuance of shares of Company Common Stock.

The Notes may have notations, legends or endorsements required by law, stock exchange rule or usage. Each Note will be dated the date of its authentication. The Notes shall be in denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.

The terms and provisions contained in the Notes will constitute, and are hereby expressly made, a part of this Indenture and the Company, the Guarantors and the Trustee, by their execution and delivery of this Indenture, expressly agree to such terms and provisions and to be bound thereby. However, to the

extent any provision of any Note conflicts with the express provisions of this Indenture, the provisions of this Indenture shall govern and be controlling.

(b) Global Notes . Notes issued in global form will be substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto (including the Global Note Legend thereon and the “Schedule of Exchanges of Interests in the Global Note” attached thereto). Notes issued in definitive form will be substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto (but without the Global Note Legend thereon and without the “Schedule of Exchanges of Interests in the Global Note” attached thereto). Each Global Note will represent such of the outstanding Notes as will be specified therein and each shall provide that it represents the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes from time to time endorsed thereon and that the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes represented thereby may from time to time be reduced or increased, as appropriate, to reflect exchanges and redemptions. Any endorsement of a Global Note to reflect the amount of any increase or decrease in the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes represented thereby will be made by the Trustee or the Custodian, at the direction of the Trustee, in accordance with instructions given by the Holder thereof as required by Section 2.06 hereof.

Section 2.02 Execution and Authentication.

At least one Officer must sign the Notes for the Company by manual or facsimile signature. If an Officer whose signature is on a Note no longer holds that office at the time a Note is authenticated, the Note will nevertheless be valid.

A Note will not be valid until authenticated by the manual signature of the Trustee. The signature will be conclusive evidence that the Note has been authenticated under this Indenture.

The Trustee shall, upon receipt of a written order of the Company signed by one Officer, either by manual or facsimile signature, (an “ Authentication Order ”), authenticate and deliver the (i) Initial Notes, (ii) any Additional Notes in accordance with Section 4.09 , and (iii) Exchange Notes from time to time for issue only in exchange for a like principal amount at maturity of Initial Notes. All Notes issued under this Indenture shall vote and consent together on all matters as one class and no series of Notes shall have the right to vote or consent as a separate class on any matter, including, without limitation, with respect to waivers, amendments, redemptions and offers to purchase.

The Trustee may appoint an authenticating agent acceptable to the Company to authenticate Notes. An authenticating agent may authenticate Notes whenever the Trustee may do so. Each reference in this Indenture to authentication by the Trustee includes authentication by such agent. An authenticating agent has the same rights as an Agent to deal with Holders or an Affiliate of the Company.

Section 2.03 Registrar and Paying Agent.

The Company will maintain an office or agency where Notes may be presented for registration of transfer or for exchange (“ Registrar ”) and an office or agency where Notes may be presented for payment (“ Paying Agent ”). The Registrar will keep a register of the Notes and of their transfer and exchange. The Company may appoint one or more co-registrars and one or more additional paying agents. The term “Registrar” includes any co-registrar and the term “Paying Agent” includes any additional paying agent.

The Company may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to any Holder. The Company will notify the Trustee in writing of the name and address of any Agent not a party to this Indenture. If the Company fails to appoint or maintain another entity as Registrar or Paying Agent, the Trustee shall act as such. The Company or any of its Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent or Registrar.

The Company initially appoints The Depository Trust Company (“ DTC ”) to act as Depositary with respect to the Global Notes.

The Company initially appoints the Trustee to act as the Registrar and Paying Agent and DTC has appointed U.S. Bank National Association to act as Custodian with respect to the Global Notes.

Section 2.04 Paying Agent to Hold Money in Trust.

The Company will require each Paying Agent other than the Trustee to agree in writing that the Paying Agent will hold in trust for the benefit of Holders or the Trustee all money held by the Paying Agent for the payment of principal, premium or Liquidated Damages, if any, or interest on the Notes, and will notify the Trustee of any Default by the Company in making any such payment. While any such Default continues, the Trustee may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. The Company at any time may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. Upon payment over to the Trustee, the Paying Agent (if other than the Company or a Subsidiary) will have no further liability for the money. If the Company or a Subsidiary acts as Paying Agent, it will segregate and hold in a separate trust fund for the benefit of the Holders all money held by it as Paying Agent. Upon any bankruptcy or reorganization proceedings relating to the Company, the Trustee will serve as Paying Agent for the Notes.

Section 2.05 Holder Lists.

The Trustee will preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it of the names and addresses of all Holders and shall otherwise comply with TIA § 312(a). If the Trustee is not the Registrar, the Company will furnish to the Trustee at least seven Business Days before each interest payment date and at such other times as the Trustee may request in writing, a list in such form and as of such date as the Trustee may reasonably require of the names and addresses of the Holders of Notes and the Company shall otherwise comply with TIA § 312(a).

(3) The Registrar will not be required to register the transfer of or exchange of any Note selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part.

(4) All Global Notes and Definitive Notes issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Global Notes or Definitive Notes will be the valid obligations of the Company, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Global Notes or Definitive Notes surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange.

(5) Neither the Registrar nor the Company will be required:

(A) to issue, to register the transfer of or to exchange any Notes during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the day of any selection of

Notes for redemption under Section 3.02 hereof and ending at the close of business on the day of selection;

(B) to register the transfer of or to exchange any Note selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part; or

Section 2.07 Replacement Notes.

If any mutilated Note is surrendered to the Trustee or the Company and the Trustee receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Note, the Company will issue and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, will authenticate a replacement Note if the Trustee’s requirements are met. If required by the Trustee or the Company, an indemnity bond must be supplied by the Holder that is sufficient in the judgment of the Trustee and the Company to protect the Company, the Trustee, any Agent and any authenticating agent from any loss that any of them may suffer if a Note is replaced. The Company may charge for its expenses in replacing a Note.

Every replacement Note is an additional obligation of the Company and will be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with all other Notes duly issued hereunder.

Section 2.09 Treasury Notes.

In determining whether the Holders of the required principal amount of Notes have concurred in any direction, waiver or consent, Notes owned by the Company or any Guarantor, or by any Person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under direct or indirect common control with the Company or any Guarantor, will be considered as though not outstanding, except that for the purposes of determining whether the Trustee will be protected in relying on any such direction, waiver or consent, only Notes that the Trustee knows are so owned will be so disregarded.

Section 2.10 Temporary Notes.

Until certificates representing Notes are ready for delivery, the Company may prepare and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, will authenticate temporary Notes. Temporary Notes will be substantially in the form of certificated Notes but may have variations that the Company considers appropriate for temporary Notes and as may be reasonably acceptable to the Trustee. Without unreasonable delay, the Company will prepare and the Trustee will authenticate (upon receipt of an Authentication Order) definitive Notes in exchange for temporary Notes.

Holders of temporary Notes will be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture.

Section 2.11 Cancellation.

Certification of all canceled Notes will be delivered to the Company.

(8) that, if the aggregate principal amount of Notes and other pari passu Indebtedness surrendered by holders thereof exceeds the Offer Amount, the Trustee will select the Notes to be purchased on a pro rata basis based on the principal amount of Notes surrendered or required to be prepaid or repurchased (with such adjustments as may be deemed appropriate by the Company so that only Notes in minimum amounts of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof, will be purchased); and

Indebtedness under Credit Facilities outstanding on the date on which Notes are first issued and authenticated under this Indenture will initially be deemed to have been incurred on such date in reliance on the exception provided by Section 4.09(b)(1) hereof.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 4.09 , the maximum amount of Indebtedness that the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary may incur pursuant to this Section 4.09 shall not be deemed to be exceeded solely as a result of fluctuations in exchange rates or currency values.

(1) the accreted value of the Indebtedness, in the case of any Indebtedness issued with original issue discount;

(2) the principal amount of the Indebtedness, in the case of any other Indebtedness; and

(3) in respect of Indebtedness of another Person secured by a Lien on the assets of the specified Person, the lesser of:

(A) the Fair Market Value of such assets at the date of determination; and

(B) the amount of the Indebtedness of the other Person.

Section 4.10 Asset Sales.

(a) The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, consummate an Asset Sale unless:

(1) the Company (or the Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be) receives consideration at the time of the Asset Sale at least equal to the Fair Market Value of the assets or Equity Interests issued or sold or otherwise disposed of; and

(2) at least 75% of the consideration received in the Asset Sale by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary is in the form of cash or Cash Equivalents. For purposes of this provision, each of the following will be deemed to be cash:

(A) any liabilities, as shown on the Company’s most recent consolidated balance sheet, of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary (other than contingent liabilities and liabilities that are by their terms subordinated to the Notes or any Note Guarantee) that are assumed by the transferee of any such assets and with respect to which the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary is released from further liability;

(B) any securities, Notes or other obligations received by the Company or any such Restricted Subsidiary from such transferee that are converted by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary into cash within 60 days, to the extent of the cash received in that conversion;

(D) any cash received under any earn-out or similar provision, to the extent of the cash received.

(b) Within 360 days after the receipt of any Net Proceeds from an Asset Sale, the Company (or the applicable Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be) may apply such Net Proceeds:

(1) to repay Indebtedness and other Obligations under a Credit Facility, and if the Indebtedness repaid is revolving credit Indebtedness, to correspondingly reduce commitments with respect thereto;

(2) to acquire all or substantially all of the assets of, or any Capital Stock of, another Permitted Business, if, after giving effect to any such acquisition of Capital Stock, the Permitted Business is or becomes, or is merged into, a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company;

(3) to make a capital expenditure; or

(4) to acquire other assets that are not classified as current assets under GAAP and that are used or useful in a Permitted Business.

(c) Pending the final application of any Net Proceeds, the Company may temporarily reduce revolving credit borrowings or otherwise invest the Net Proceeds in any manner that is not prohibited by this Indenture.

(d) Any Net Proceeds from Asset Sales that are not applied or invested as provided in Section 4.10(b) will constitute “ Excess Proceeds .” When the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $15.0 million, the Company will, within 30 days thereof, make an offer (“ Asset Sale Offer ”) to all Holders of Notes and all holders of other Indebtedness that is pari passu with the Notes containing provisions similar to those set forth in this Indenture with respect to offers to purchase or redeem with the proceeds of sales of assets to purchase the maximum principal amount of Notes and such other pari passu Indebtedness that may be purchased out of the Excess Proceeds. The offer price in any Asset Sale Offer will be equal to 100% of the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest and Liquidated Damages, if any, to the date of purchase, and will be payable in cash. If any Excess Proceeds remain after the consummation of an Asset Sale Offer (whether or not any Notes have been tendered), the Company may use those Excess Proceeds for any purpose not otherwise prohibited by this Indenture. If the aggregate principal amount of Notes and other pari passu Indebtedness tendered into such Asset Sale Offer exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Trustee will select the Notes and such other pari passu Indebtedness

to be purchased on a pro rata basis. Upon completion of each Asset Sale Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds will be reset at zero.

(e) The Company will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with each repurchase of Notes pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with this Section 4.10 , the Company will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Section 4.10 by virtue of such compliance.

Section 4.11 Transactions with Affiliates.

(a) The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, make any payment to, or sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of its properties or assets to, or purchase any property or assets from, or enter into or make or amend any transaction, contract, agreement, understanding, loan, advance or guarantee with, or for the benefit of, any Affiliate of the Company (each, an “ Affiliate Transaction ”), unless:

(1) the Affiliate Transaction is on terms that are no less favorable to the Company or the relevant Restricted Subsidiary than those that would have been obtained in a comparable transaction by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary with an unaffiliated Person; and

(2) the Company delivers to the Trustee:

(A) with respect to any Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions involving aggregate consideration in excess of $5.0 million, a resolution of the Board of Directors of the Company set forth in an Officers’ Certificate certifying that such Affiliate Transaction complies with this Section 4.11 and that such Affiliate Transaction has been approved by a majority of the disinterested members of the Board of Directors of the Company; and

(B) with respect to any Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions involving aggregate consideration in excess of $10.0 million, an opinion as to the fairness to the Company or such Subsidiary of such Affiliate Transaction from a financial point of view issued by an accounting, appraisal or investment banking firm of national standing.

(b) The following items will not be deemed to be Affiliate Transactions and, therefore, will not be subject to the provisions of Section 4.11(a) hereof:

(1) any employment agreement, employee benefit plan, officer or director indemnification agreement or any similar arrangement entered into by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business and payments pursuant thereto;

The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Lien of any kind on any asset now owned or hereafter acquired, except Permitted Liens, and except Liens securing Indebtedness if all payments due under this Indenture and the Notes are secured equally and ratably with (or prior to) the Indebtedness secured by such Liens until such time as such Indebtedness is no longer secured by such Liens; provided that if the Indebtedness so secured is subordinated by its terms to the Notes or a Note Guarantee, the Liens securing such Indebtedness will also be so subordinated by their terms to the Notes and the Note Guarantees at least to the same extent.

Section 4.13 Business Activities.

Section 4.15 Offer to Repurchase Upon Change of Control.

(a) Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, the Company will make an offer (a “Change of Control Offer” ) to each Holder to repurchase all or any part (equal to $2,000 or an integral

Within 30 days following any Change of Control, the Company will mail a notice to each Holder describing the transaction or transactions that constitute the Change of Control and stating:

(1) that the Change of Control Offer is being made pursuant to this Section 4.15 and that all Notes tendered will be accepted for payment;

(7) that Holders whose Notes are being purchased only in part will be issued new Notes equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered, which unpurchased portion must be equal to $2,000 in principal amount or an integral multiple thereof.

The Company will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the Notes as a result of a Change in Control. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the provisions of this Section 4.15 , the Company will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Section 4.15 by virtue of such compliance.

(b) On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Company will, to the extent lawful:

The Company will publicly announce the results of the Change of Control Offer on or as soon as practicable after the Change of Control Payment Date.

(d) The provisions described above that require the Company to make a Change of Control Offer following a Change of Control will be applicable whether or not any other provisions of this Indenture are applicable. Except as described in this Section 4.15 with respect to a Change of Control, this Indenture does not contain provisions that permit the Holders of the Notes to require that the Company repurchase or redeem the Notes in the event of a takeover, recapitalization or similar transaction.

(e) The Company will not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon a Change of Control if (1) a third party makes the Change of Control Offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in this Indenture applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Company and purchases all Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn under the Change of Control Offer, or (2) notice of redemption has been given pursuant to Section 3.02 unless and until there is a default in payment of the applicable redemption price.

Section 4.16 Payments for Consent.

The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, pay or cause to be paid any consideration to or for the benefit of any Holder of Notes for or as an inducement to any consent, waiver or amendment of any of the terms or provisions of this Indenture or the Notes, unless such consideration is offered to be paid and is paid to all Holders of the Notes that consent, waive or agree to amend in the time frame set forth in the solicitation documents relating to such consent, waiver or agreement.

Section 4.17 Additional Note Guarantees.

If the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries acquires or creates another Domestic Subsidiary after the date of this Indenture, then the Company will (1) cause that newly acquired or created Domestic Subsidiary to (a) execute a supplemental indenture substantially in the Form of Exhibit F hereto pursuant to which it becomes a Guarantor and (b) if any obligations remain under the Registration Rights Agreement, execute an amendment to the Registration Rights Agreement pursuant to which it becomes subject to the obligations of a Guarantor thereunder, and (2) deliver an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Trustee; provided that any Domestic Subsidiary that constitutes an Immaterial Subsidiary need not become a Guarantor until such time as it ceases to be an Immaterial Subsidiary.

Section 4.18 Designation of Restricted and Unrestricted Subsidiaries.

(a) The Board of Directors of the Company may designate any Restricted Subsidiary to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary if that designation would not cause a Default. If a Restricted Subsidiary is designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, the aggregate Fair Market Value of all outstanding Investments owned by the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries in the Subsidiary designated as Unrestricted will be deemed to be an Investment made as of the time of the designation and will reduce the amount available for Restricted Payments under Section 4.07 hereof or under one or more clauses of the

definition of Permitted Investments, as determined by the Company. That designation will only be permitted if the Investment would be permitted at that time and if the Restricted Subsidiary otherwise meets the definition of an Unrestricted Subsidiary. The Board of Directors of the Company may redesignate any Unrestricted Subsidiary to be a Restricted Subsidiary if that redesignation would not cause a Default.

(b) If, at any time, any Unrestricted Subsidiary would fail to meet the requirements in Section 4.18(a) as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, it will thereafter cease to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary for purposes of this Indenture and any Indebtedness of such Subsidiary will be deemed to be incurred by a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company as of such date and, if such Indebtedness is not permitted to be incurred as of such date under Section 4.09 hereof, the Company will be in default of such covenant. The Board of Directors of the Company may at any time designate any Unrestricted Subsidiary to be a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company; provided that such designation will be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness by a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company of any outstanding Indebtedness of such Unrestricted Subsidiary, and such designation will only be permitted if (1) such Indebtedness is permitted under Section 4.09 hereof calculated on a pro forma basis as if such designation had occurred at the beginning of the four-quarter reference period; and (2) no Default or Event of Default would be in existence following such designation.

(b) A copy of each report at the time of its mailing to the Holders of Notes will be mailed by the Trustee to the Company and filed by the Trustee with the SEC and each stock exchange on which the Notes are listed in accordance with TIA § 313(d). The Company will promptly notify the Trustee when the Notes are listed on any stock exchange.

Section 7.07 Compensation and Indemnity.

(a) The Company will pay to the Trustee from time to time reasonable compensation for its acceptance of this Indenture and services hereunder. The Trustee’s compensation will not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust. The Company will reimburse the Trustee promptly upon request for all reasonable disbursements, advances and expenses incurred or made by it in addition to the compensation for its services. Such expenses will include the reasonable compensation, disbursements and expenses of the Trustee’s agents and counsel.

(b) The Company and the Guarantors, jointly and severally, will indemnify the Trustee against any and all losses, liabilities or expenses incurred by it arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of its duties under this Indenture, including the costs and expenses of enforcing this Indenture against the Company and the Guarantors (including this Section 7.07 ) and defending itself against any claim (whether asserted by the Company, the Guarantors, any Holder or any other Person) or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder, except to the extent any such loss, liability or expense may be attributable to its negligence or bad faith. The Trustee as applicable, will notify the Company promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity. Failure by the Trustee, as applicable, to so notify the Company will not relieve the Company or any of the Guarantors of their obligations hereunder. The Company or such Guarantor will defend the claim and the Trustee will cooperate in the defense. The Trustee may have separate counsel and the Company will pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel. Neither the Company nor any Guarantor need pay for any settlement made without its consent, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld.

(c) The obligations of the Company and the Guarantors under this Section 7.07 will survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture.

(d) To secure the Company’s and the Guarantors’ payment obligations in this Section 7.07 , the Trustee will have a Lien prior to the Notes on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee, except that held in trust to pay principal and interest on particular Notes. Such Lien will survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture.

(e) When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services after an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(9) or (10) hereof occurs, the expenses and the compensation for the services (including the fees and expenses of its agents and counsel) are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any Bankruptcy Law.

(f) The Trustee will comply with the provisions of TIA § 313(b)(2) to the extent applicable.

Section 7.08 Replacement of Trustee.

(a) A resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a successor Trustee will become effective only upon the successor Trustee’s acceptance of appointment as provided in this Section 7.08 .

(b) The Trustee may resign in writing at any time and be discharged from the trust hereby created by so notifying the Company. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may remove the Trustee by so notifying the Trustee and the Company in writing. The Company may remove the Trustee if:

(1) the Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.10 hereof;

(2) the Trustee is adjudged a bankrupt or an insolvent or an order for relief is entered with respect to the Trustee under any Bankruptcy Law;

(3) a custodian or public officer takes charge of the Trustee or its property; or

(4) the Trustee becomes incapable of acting.

(c) If the Trustee resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the office of Trustee for any reason, the Company will promptly appoint a successor Trustee. Within one year after the successor Trustee takes office, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may appoint a successor Trustee to replace the successor Trustee appointed by the Company.

(d) If a successor Trustee does not take office within 60 days after the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee, the Company, or the Holders of at least 10% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee.

(e) If the Trustee, after written request by any Holder who has been a Holder for at least six months, fails to comply with Section 7.10 hereof, such Holder may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee.

(f) A successor Trustee will deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Company. Thereupon, the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee will become effective, and the successor Trustee will have all the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee under this Indenture. The successor Trustee will mail a notice of its succession to Holders. The retiring Trustee will promptly transfer all property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee; provided all sums owing to the Trustee hereunder have been paid and subject to the Lien provided for in Section 7.07 hereof. Notwithstanding replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this Section 7.08 , the Company’s obligations under Section 7.07 hereof will continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee.

Section 7.09 Successor Trustee by Merger, etc.

If the Trustee consolidates, merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all of its corporate trust business to, another corporation, the successor corporation without any further act will be the successor Trustee.

Section 7.10 Eligibility; Disqualification.

There will at all times be a Trustee hereunder that is a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of America or of any state thereof that is authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trustee power, that is subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authorities and that has a combined capital and surplus of at least $100.0 million as set forth in its most recent published annual report of condition.

This Indenture will always have a Trustee who satisfies the requirements of TIA § 310(a)(1), (2) and (5). The Trustee is subject to TIA § 310(b).

Section 7.11 Preferential Collection of Claims Against Company.

The Trustee is subject to TIA § 311(a), excluding any creditor relationship listed in TIA § 311(b). A Trustee who has resigned or been removed shall be subject to TIA § 311(a) to the extent indicated therein.

ARTICLE 8
LEGAL DEFEASANCE AND COVENANT DEFEASANCE

Section 8.01 Option to Effect Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance.

The Company may at any time, at the option of its Board of Directors evidenced by a resolution set forth in an Officers’ Certificate, elect to have either Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof be applied to all outstanding Notes upon compliance with the conditions set forth below in this Article 8.

Section 8.02 Legal Defeasance and Discharge.

Upon the Company’s exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.02 , the Company and each of the Guarantors will, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, be deemed to have been discharged from their obligations with respect to all outstanding Notes (including the Note Guarantees) on the date the conditions set forth below are satisfied (hereinafter, “ Legal Defeasance ”). For this purpose, Legal Defeasance means that the Company and the Guarantors will be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire Indebtedness represented by the outstanding Notes (including the Note Guarantees), which will thereafter be deemed to be “outstanding” only for the purposes of Section 8.05 hereof and the other sections of this Indenture referred to in clauses (1) and (2) of this Section 8.02 , and to have satisfied all their other obligations under such Notes, the Note Guarantees and this Indenture (and the Trustee, on demand of and at the expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), except for the following provisions which will survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder:

(1) the rights of Holders of outstanding Notes to receive payments in respect of the principal of, and interest, premium and Liquidated Damages, if any, on, such Notes when such payments are due from the trust referred to in Section 8.04 hereof;

(2) the Company’s obligations with respect to such Notes under Article 2 and Section 4.02 hereof;

(3) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee hereunder and the Company’s and the Guarantors’ obligations in connection therewith; and

(4) this Article 8.

Subject to compliance with this Article 8, the Company may exercise its option under this Section 8.02 notwithstanding the prior exercise of its option under Section 8.03 hereof.

Section 8.03 Covenant Defeasance.

Upon the Company’s exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.03 , the Company and each of the Guarantors will, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, be released from their obligations under the covenants contained in Sections 4.03, 4.07 , 4.08 , 4.09 , 4.10 , 4.11 , 4.12 , 4.13 , 4.15 , 4.16 , 4.17 , 4.18 and clause (4) of Section 5.01 hereof with respect to the outstanding Notes on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof are satisfied (hereinafter, “ Covenant Defeasance ”), and the Notes will thereafter be deemed not “outstanding” for the purposes of any direction, waiver, consent or declaration or act of Holders (and the consequences of any thereof) in connection with such covenants, but will continue to be deemed “outstanding” for all other purposes hereunder (it being understood that such Notes will not be deemed outstanding for accounting purposes). For this purpose, Covenant Defeasance means that, with respect to the outstanding Notes and Note Guarantees, the Company and the Guarantors may omit to comply with and will have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such covenant, whether directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such covenant or by reason of any reference in any such covenant to any other provision herein or in any other document and such omission to comply will not constitute a Default or an Event of Default under Section 6.01 hereof, but, except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture and such Notes and Note Guarantees will be unaffected thereby. In addition, upon the Company’s exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.03 , subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, Sections 6.01(3) through 6.01(8) hereof will not constitute Events of Default.

Section 8.04 Conditions to Legal or Covenant Defeasance.

In order to exercise either Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance under either Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof:

(1) the Company must irrevocably deposit with the Trustee, in trust, for the benefit of the holders of the Notes, cash in U.S. dollars, non-callable Government Securities, or a combination of cash in U.S. dollars and non-callable Government Securities, in amounts as will be sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized investment bank, appraisal firm or firm of independent public accountants selected by the Company, to pay the principal of, and interest, premium and Liquidated Damages, if any, on, the outstanding Notes on the stated date for payment thereof or on the applicable redemption date, as the case may be, and the Company must specify whether the Notes are being defeased to such stated date for payment or to a particular redemption date;

(2) in the case of an election under Section 8.02 hereof, the Company must deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel reasonably acceptable to the Trustee confirming that:

(A) the Company has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling; or

(B) since the date of this Indenture, there has been a change in the applicable federal income tax law,

in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such Opinion of Counsel will confirm that, the Holders of the outstanding Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such Legal Defeasance and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Legal Defeasance had not occurred;

(3) in the case of an election under Section 8.03 hereof, the Company must deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel reasonably acceptable to the Trustee confirming that the Holders of the outstanding Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such Covenant Defeasance and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Covenant Defeasance had not occurred;

(4) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing on the date of such deposit (other than a Default or Event of Default resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit) and the deposit will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any other instrument to which the Company or any Guarantor is a party or by which the Company or any Guarantor is bound;

(5) such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any material agreement or instrument (other than this Indenture) to which the Company or any of the Subsidiaries is a party or by which the Company or any of the Subsidiaries is bound;

(6) the Company must deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating that the deposit was not made by the Company with the intent of preferring the Holders of Notes over the other creditors of the Company with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or defrauding any creditors of the Company or others; and

(7) the Company must deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent relating to the Legal Defeasance or the Covenant Defeasance have been complied with.

Section 8.05 Deposited Money and Government Securities to be Held in Trust; Other Miscellaneous Provisions.

Subject to Section 8.06 , all money and non-callable Government Securities (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee (or other qualifying trustee, collectively for purposes of this Section 8.05 , the “ Trustee ”) pursuant to Section 8.04 in respect of the outstanding Notes will be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of such Notes and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Company acting as Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Holders of such Notes of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of principal, premium and Liquidated Damages, if any, and interest, but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.

The Company will pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the cash or non-callable Government Securities deposited pursuant to Section 8.04 or the principal and interest received in respect thereof other than any such tax, fee or other charge which by law is for the account of the Holders of the outstanding Notes.

Notwithstanding anything in this Article 8 to the contrary, the Trustee will deliver or pay to the Company from time to time upon the request of the Company any money or non-callable Government Securities held by it as provided in Section 8.04 which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee (which may be the opinion delivered under Section 8.04(1) ), are in excess of the amount thereof that would then be required to be deposited to effect an equivalent Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance.

Section 8.06 Repayment to Company.

Any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Company, in trust for the payment of the principal of, premium or Liquidated Damages, if any, or interest on, any Note and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal, premium or Liquidated Damages, if any, or interest has become due and payable shall be paid to the Company on its request or (if then held by the Company) will be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Note will thereafter be permitted to look only to the Company for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Company as Trustee thereof, will thereupon cease; provided, however , that the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, may at the expense of the Company cause to be published once, in the New York Times and The Wall Street Journal (national edition), notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which will not be less than 30 days from the date of such notification or publication, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be repaid to the Company.

Section 8.07 Reinstatement.

If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any United States dollars or non-callable Government Securities in accordance with Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof, as the case may be, by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, then the Company’s and the Guarantors’ obligations under this Indenture and the Notes and the Note Guarantees will be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money in accordance with Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof, as the case may be; provided, however , that, if the Company makes any payment of principal of, premium or Liquidated Damages, if any, or interest on, any Note following the reinstatement of its obligations, the Company will be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the money held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.

ARTICLE 9
AMENDMENT, SUPPLEMENT AND WAIVER

Section 9.01 Without Consent of Holders of Notes.

Notwithstanding Section 9.02 , the Company, the Guarantors and the Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture, the Notes and the Note Guarantees without the consent of any Holder of Note:

(1) to cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency;

(2) to provide for uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of certificated Notes;

(3) to provide for the assumption of the Company’s or a Guarantor’s obligations to Holders of Notes and Note Guarantees in the case of a merger or consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s or such Guarantor’s assets, as applicable;

(4) to make any change that would provide any additional rights or benefits to the Holders of Notes or that does not adversely affect the legal rights under this Indenture of any such Holder;

(5) to comply with requirements of the SEC in order to effect or maintain the qualification of this Indenture under the TIA;

(6) to conform the text of this Indenture, the Notes or the Note Guarantees to any provision of the “Description of Notes” section of the Offering Memorandum to the extent that such provision was intended by the Company to be a verbatim recitation of a provision of this Indenture, the Notes or the Note Guarantees;

(7) to provide for the issuance of Additional Notes in accordance with the limitations set forth in this Indenture as of the date of this Indenture; or

(8) to allow any Guarantor to execute a supplemental indenture and/or a Note Guarantee with respect to the Notes; or

(9) to evidence and provide for the acceptance of appointment under this Indenture by a successor Trustee.

Upon the request of the Company accompanied by a resolution of its Board of Directors authorizing the execution of any such amended or supplemental indenture, and upon receipt by the Trustee of the documents described in Section 7.02 and 9.06 hereof, the Trustee will join with the Company and the Guarantors in the execution of any amended or supplemental indenture authorized or permitted by the terms of this Indenture and to make any further appropriate agreements and stipulations that may be therein contained, but the Trustee will not be obligated to enter into such amended or supplemental indenture that affects its own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise.

Section 9.02 With Consent of Holders of Notes.

Except as provided below in this Section 9.02 , the Company and the Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture (including, without limitation, Section 3.09 , 4.10 and 4.15 hereof), the Notes and the Note Guarantees with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, the Notes), and, subject to Sections 6.04 and 6.07 , any existing Default or Event of Default or compliance with any provision of this Indenture, the Notes or the Note Guarantees may be waived with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, the Notes).

Upon the request of the Company accompanied by a resolution of its Board of Directors authorizing the execution of any such amended or supplemental indenture, and upon the filing with the Trustee of evidence satisfactory to the Trustee of the consent of the Holders of Notes as aforesaid, and upon receipt by the Trustee of the documents described in Section 7.02 hereof, the Trustee will join with the Company and the Guarantors in the execution of such amended or supplemental indenture unless such amended or supplemental indenture directly affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise, in which case the Trustee may in its discretion, but will not be obligated to, enter into such amended or supplemental Indenture.

It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Holders of Notes under this Section 9.02 to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment, supplement or waiver, but it is sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof.

After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section 9.02 becomes effective, the Company will mail to the Holders of Notes affected thereby a notice briefly describing the amendment, supplement or waiver. Any failure of the Company to mail such notice, or any defect therein, will not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such amended or supplemental indenture or

waiver. Subject to Sections 6.04 and 6.07 hereof, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding may waive compliance in a particular instance by the Company with any provision of this Indenture, the Notes or the Note Guarantees. However, without the consent of each Holder affected, an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section 9.02 may not (with respect to any Notes held by a non-consenting Holder):

(1) reduce the principal amount of Notes whose Holders must consent to an amendment, supplement or waiver;

(2) reduce the principal of or change the fixed maturity of any Note or alter the provisions with respect to the redemption of the Notes (except as provided above with respect to Sections 3.09 , 4.10 and 4.15 hereof);

(3) reduce the rate of or change the time for payment of interest, including default interest, on any Note;

(4) waive a Default or Event of Default in the payment of principal of, or interest, premium or Liquidated Damages, if any, on, the Notes (except a rescission of acceleration of the Notes by the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes and a waiver of the payment default that resulted from such acceleration);

(5) make any Note payable in currency other than that stated in the Notes;

(6) make any change in the provisions of this Indenture relating to waivers of past Defaults or the rights of Holders of Notes to receive payments of principal of, or interest, premium or Liquidated Damages, if any, on, the Notes;

(7) waive a redemption or repurchase payment with respect to any Note (other than a payment required by Sections 3.09 , 4.10 or 4.15 hereof);

(8) release any Guarantor from any of its obligations under its Note Guarantee or this Indenture, except in accordance with the terms of this Indenture; or

(9) make any change in the preceding amendment and waiver provisions.

Section 9.03 Compliance with Trust Indenture Act.

Every amendment or supplement to this Indenture or the Notes will be set forth in a amended or supplemental indenture that complies with the TIA as then in effect.

Section 9.04 Revocation and Effect of Consents.

Until an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective, a consent to it by a Holder of a Note is a continuing consent by the Holder of a Note and every subsequent Holder of a Note or portion of a Note that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s Note, even if notation of the consent is not made on any Note. However, any such Holder of a Note or subsequent Holder of a Note may revoke the consent as to its Note if the Trustee receives written notice of revocation before the date the amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective. An amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective in accordance with its terms and thereafter binds every Holder.

Section 9.05 Notation on or Exchange of Notes.

The Trustee may place an appropriate notation about an amendment, supplement or waiver on any Note thereafter authenticated. The Company in exchange for all Notes may issue and the Trustee shall, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, authenticate new Notes that reflect the amendment, supplement or waiver.

Failure to make the appropriate notation or issue a new Note will not affect the validity and effect of such amendment, supplement or waiver.

Section 9.06 Trustee to Sign Amendments, etc.

The Trustee will sign any amended or supplemental indenture authorized pursuant to this Article 9 if the amendment or supplement does not adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee. The Company may not sign an amended or supplemental indenture until the Board of Directors of the Company approves it. In executing any amended or supplemental indenture, the Trustee will be entitled to receive and (subject to Section 7.01 hereof) will be fully protected in relying upon, in addition to the documents required by Section 12.04 hereof, an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such amended or supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by this Indenture.

ARTICLE 10

NOTE GUARANTEES

Section 10.01 Guarantee.

(a) Subject to this Article 10, each of the Guarantors hereby, jointly and severally, unconditionally guarantees to each Holder of a Note authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and to the Trustee and its successors and assigns, irrespective of the validity and enforceability of this Indenture, the Notes or the obligations of the Company hereunder or thereunder, that:

(1) the principal of, premium and Liquidated Damages, if any, and interest on, the Notes will be promptly paid in full when due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, redemption or otherwise, and interest on the overdue principal of and interest on the Notes, if any, if lawful, and all other obligations of the Company to the Holders or the Trustee hereunder or thereunder will be promptly paid in full or performed, all in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof (including, but not limited to, all interest accrued or accruing (or which would, absent commencement of an Insolvency Proceeding (and the effect of provisions such as Section 502(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code), accrue) after commencement of an Insolvency Proceeding, whether or not the claim for such interest is allowed as a claim in such Insolvency Proceeding); and

(2) in case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any Notes or any of such other obligations, that same will be promptly paid in full when due or performed in accordance with the terms of the extension or renewal, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise.

Failing payment when due of any amount so guaranteed or any performance so guaranteed for whatever reason, the Guarantors will be jointly and severally obligated to pay the same immediately. Each Guarantor agrees that this is a guarantee of payment and not a guarantee of collection.

(b) The Guarantors hereby agree that their obligations hereunder are unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of the Notes or this Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any Holder of the Notes with respect to any provisions hereof or thereof, the recovery of any judgment against the Company, any action to enforce the same or any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor. Each Guarantor hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy of the Company, any right to require a proceeding first against the Company, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever and covenant that this Note Guarantee will not be discharged except by complete performance of the obligations contained in the Notes and this Indenture.

(c) If any Holder or the Trustee is required by any court or otherwise to return to the Company, the Guarantors or any custodian, trustee, liquidator or other similar official acting in relation to either the Company or the Guarantors, any amount paid by either to the Trustee or such Holder, this Note Guarantee, to the extent theretofore discharged, will be reinstated in full force and effect.

(d) Each Guarantor agrees that it will not be entitled to any right of subrogation in relation to the Holders in respect of any obligations guaranteed hereby until payment in full of all obligations guaranteed hereby. Each Guarantor further agrees that, as between the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand, (1) the maturity of the obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article 6 hereof for the purposes of this Note Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the obligations guaranteed hereby, and (2) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such obligations as provided in Article 6 hereof, such obligations (whether or not due and payable) will forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantors for the purpose of this Note Guarantee. The Guarantors will have the right to seek contribution from any non-paying Guarantor so long as the exercise of such right does not impair the rights of the Holders under the Note Guarantee.

Section 10.02 Limitation on Guarantor Liability.

Each Guarantor, and by its acceptance of Notes, each Holder, hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such parties that the Note Guarantee of such Guarantor not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar federal or state law to the extent applicable to any Note Guarantee. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Trustee, the Holders and the Guarantors hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of such Guarantor will be limited to the maximum amount that will, after giving effect to such maximum amount and all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Guarantor that are relevant under such laws, and after giving effect to any collections from, rights to receive contribution from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Guarantor under this Article 10, result in the obligations of such Guarantor under its Note Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance.

Section 10.03 Execution and Delivery of Note Guarantee.

To evidence its Note Guarantee set forth in Section 10.01 hereof, each Guarantor hereby agrees that a notation of such Note Guarantee substantially in the form attached as Exhibit E hereto will be endorsed by an Officer of such Guarantor on each Note authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and that this Indenture will be executed on behalf of such Guarantor by one of its Officers.

Each Guarantor hereby agrees that its Note Guarantee set forth in Section 10.01 hereof will remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any failure to endorse on each Note a notation of such Note Guarantee.

If an Officer whose signature is on this Indenture or on the Note Guarantee no longer holds that office at the time the Trustee authenticates the Note on which a Note Guarantee is endorsed, the Note Guarantee will be valid nevertheless.

The delivery of any Note by the Trustee, after the authentication thereof hereunder, will constitute due delivery of the Note Guarantee set forth in this Indenture on behalf of the Guarantors.

In the event that the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries creates or acquires any Domestic Subsidiary after the date of this Indenture, if required by Section 4.17 hereof, the Company will cause such Domestic Subsidiary to comply with the provisions of Section 4.17 hereof and this Article 10, to the extent applicable.

Section 10.04 Guarantors May Consolidate, etc., on Certain Terms.

Except as otherwise provided in Section 10.05 hereof, no Guarantor may sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its assets to, or consolidate with or merge with or into (whether or not such Guarantor is the surviving Person) another Person, other than the Company or another Guarantor, unless:

(1) immediately after giving effect to that transaction, no Default or Event of Default exists; and

(2) either:

(A) the Person acquiring the property in any such sale or disposition or the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger assumes all the obligations of that Guarantor under this Indenture, its Note Guarantee and the Registration Rights Agreement pursuant to a supplemental indenture satisfactory to the Trustee; or

(B) the Net Proceeds of such sale or other disposition are applied in accordance with Section 4.10 hereof.

In case of any such consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance and upon the assumption by the successor Person, by supplemental indenture, executed and delivered to the Trustee and satisfactory in form to the Trustee, of the Note Guarantee endorsed upon the Notes and the due and punctual performance of all of the covenants and conditions of this Indenture to be performed by the Guarantor, such successor Person will succeed to and be substituted for the Guarantor with the same effect as if it had been named herein as a Guarantor. Such successor Person thereupon may cause to be signed any or all of the Note Guarantees to be endorsed upon all of the Notes issuable hereunder which theretofore shall not have been signed by the Company and delivered to the Trustee. All the Note Guarantees so issued will in all respects have the same legal rank and benefit under this Indenture as the Note Guarantees theretofore and thereafter issued in accordance with the terms of this Indenture as though all of such Note Guarantees had been issued at the date of the execution hereof.

Except as set forth in Articles 4 and 5 hereof, and notwithstanding Section 10.04(2)(A) and 10.04(2)(B) hereof, nothing contained in this Indenture or in any of the Notes will prevent any consolidation or merger of a Guarantor with or into the Company or another Guarantor, or will prevent

any sale or conveyance of the property of a Guarantor as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to the Company or another Guarantor.

Section 10.05 Releases.

(1) in connection with any sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of that Guarantor (including by way of merger or consolidation) to a Person that is not (either before or after giving effect to such transaction) the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company, if the sale or other disposition does not violate Section 4.10 hereof;

(2) in connection with any sale or other disposition of all of the Capital Stock of that Guarantor to a Person that is not (either before or after giving effect to such transaction) the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company, if the sale or other disposition does not violate Section 4.10 hereof;

(3) if the Company designates that Guarantor to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Indenture; or

(4) upon legal defeasance in accordance with Article 8 or satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture in accordance with Article 11 hereof.

(b) At the Company’s written direction and expense, in the event that a Note Guarantee of a Guarantor shall be released in accordance with this Section 10.05 , the Trustee will execute and deliver an instrument acknowledging such release in accordance with the terms of this Indenture (in a form prepared by the Company).

(c) Any Guarantor not released from its obligations under its Note Guarantee as provided in this Section 10.05 will remain liable for the full amount of principal of and interest and premium and Liquidated Damages, if any, on the Notes and for the other obligations of any Guarantor under this Indenture as provided in this Article 10.

ARTICLE 11
SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE

Section 11.01 Satisfaction and Discharge.

This Indenture will be discharged and will cease to be of further effect as to all Notes issued hereunder, when:

(1) either:

(A) all Notes that have been authenticated, except lost, stolen or destroyed Notes that have been replaced or paid and Notes for whose payment money has been deposited in trust and thereafter repaid to the Company following the expiration of the period for holding unclaimed funds set forth in this Indenture, have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or

(B) all Notes that have not been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation have (i) become due and payable, (ii) will become due and payable at their Stated

Maturity within one year, or (iii) are to be called for redemption within one year under arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the giving of notice of redemption in the name, and at the expense, of the Company, and, in any such case, the Company or any Guarantor has irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust solely for the benefit of the Holders, cash in United States dollars, non-callable Government Securities, or a combination of cash in United States dollars and non-callable Government Securities, in amounts as will be sufficient, without consideration of any reinvestment of interest, to pay and discharge the entire Indebtedness on the Notes not delivered to the Trustee for cancellation for principal, interest, premium, and Liquidated Damages, if any, to the date of maturity or redemption;

(2) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing on the date of the deposit (other than a Default or Event of Default resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit) and the deposit will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any other instrument to which the Company or any Guarantor is a party or by which the Company or any Guarantor is bound;

(3) the Company or any Guarantor has paid or caused to be paid all other sums payable by it under this Indenture; and

(4) the Company has delivered irrevocable instructions to the Trustee under this Indenture to apply the deposited money toward the payment of the Notes at maturity or on the redemption date, as the case may be.

In addition, except in the case of satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture resulting from repayment of the Notes at their Stated Maturity, the Company must deliver an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel to the Trustee stating that all conditions precedent to satisfaction and discharge have been satisfied.

Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, if money has been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to subclause (B) of clause (1) of this Section 11.01 , the provisions of Sections 11.02 and 8.06 hereof will survive. In addition, nothing in this Section 11.01 will be deemed to discharge those provisions of Section 7.07 hereof, that, by their terms, survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture.

Section 11.02 Application of Trust Money.

Subject to the provisions of Section 8.06 hereof, all money deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 11.01 hereof shall be held in trust and applied by it, in accordance with the provisions of the Notes and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Company acting as its own Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Persons entitled thereto, of the principal (and premium and Liquidated Damages, if any) and interest for whose payment such money has been deposited with the Trustee; but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.

If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any money or Government Securities in accordance with Section 11.01 hereof by reason of any legal proceeding or by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, the Company’s and any Guarantor’s obligations under this Indenture and the Notes shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 11.01 hereof; provided that if the Company has made any payment of principal of, premium or Liquidated Damages, if any, or

interest on, any Notes because of the reinstatement of its obligations, the Company shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the money or Government Securities held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.

Holders may not enforce the Indenture or the Notes except as provided in the Indenture.

The Trustee may withhold from Holders of the Notes notice

A-9

of any continuing Default or Event of Default if it determines that withholding notice is in their interest, except a Default or Event of Default relating to the payment of principal or interest or premium [or Liquidated Damages, if any].

Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes by notice to the Trustee may, on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes, rescind an acceleration or waive any existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences under the Indenture, except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of principal or interest or premium [or Liquidated Damages, if any]. Upon any such waiver, such Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured for every purpose of the Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any right consequent thereon. The Company is required to deliver to the Trustee annually a statement regarding compliance with the Indenture, and the Company is required, within five Business Days of becoming aware of any Default or Event of Default, to deliver to the Trustee a statement specifying such Default or Event of Default.

W I T N E S S E T H

WHEREAS, the Company has heretofore executed and delivered to the Trustee an indenture (the “ Indenture ”), dated as of March 25, 2010 providing for the issuance of 10 ¹ / 4 % Senior Notes due 2015 (the “ Notes ”);

WHEREAS, the Indenture provides that under certain circumstances the Guaranteeing Subsidiary shall execute and deliver to the Trustee a supplemental indenture pursuant to which the Guaranteeing Subsidiary shall unconditionally guarantee all of the Company’s Obligations under the Notes and the Indenture on the terms and conditions set forth herein (the “ Note Guarantee ”); and

WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 9.01 of the Indenture, the Trustee is authorized to execute and deliver this Supplemental Indenture.

1. Capitalized Terms . Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.

2. Joinder to Indenture . The Guaranteeing Subsidiary hereby agrees to become bound by the terms, conditions and other provisions of the Indenture with all attendant rights, duties and obligations stated therein, with the same force and effect as if originally named as a Guarantor therein and if such party executed the Indenture on the date thereof.

(a) Execution of Warrant Certificates . The Warrant Certificates shall be executed on behalf of the Company by an officer of the Company authorized by the Board of Directors. In case the officer of the Company who shall have signed any Warrant Certificate shall cease to be such an officer of the Company before issuance and delivery by the Company of such Warrant Certificate, such Warrant Certificate nevertheless may be issued and delivered with the same force and effect as though the individual who signed such Warrant Certificate had not ceased to be such an officer of the Company, and any Warrant Certificate may be signed on behalf of the Company by any individual who, at the actual date of the execution of such Warrant Certificate, shall be a proper officer of the Company to sign such Warrant Certificate, although at the date of the execution of this Agreement any such individual was not such an officer.

(b) Registration Books. The Company will keep or cause to be kept at its office, maintained at the address of the Company referenced in Section 6.6 , at the Company’s transfer agent, or at such other office of the Company of which the Company shall have given notice to each holder of Warrant Certificates, books for registration and transfer of the Warrant Certificates issued hereunder.

Any registered holder desiring to transfer any Warrant Certificate shall make such request in writing delivered to the Company, which request shall include the identity of the Transferee and the aggregate number of Warrants to be transferred, and shall surrender the Warrant Certificate or Warrant Certificates

(or portions thereof) to be transferred at the office of the Company referenced in Section 6.6 , whereupon the Company shall deliver promptly to such Transferee a Warrant Certificate or Warrant Certificates, as the case may be, as so requested, which Warrant Certificate or Warrant Certificates shall evidence, collectively, the same aggregate number of Warrants as the Warrant Certificate or Warrant Certificates (or portions thereof) so surrendered for transfer and shall issue a new Warrant Certificate to the transferor representing the Warrants retained by the Transferor if such transfer involved less than the entire number of Warrants held by such Transferor.

(ii) Split Up, Combination, Exchange, etc. Any Warrant Certificate, with or without other Warrant Certificates, may be split up, combined or exchanged for another Warrant Certificate or Warrant Certificates, in an aggregate like Denomination as the Warrant Certificate or Warrant Certificates surrendered then entitle such registered holder to purchase. Any registered holder desiring to split up, combine or exchange any Warrant Certificate shall make such request in writing delivered to the Company, and shall surrender the Warrant Certificate or Warrant Certificates to be split up, combined or exchanged at the office of the Company referenced in Section 6.6 , whereupon the Company shall deliver promptly to such registered holder a Warrant Certificate or Warrant Certificates, as the case may be, as so requested, which Warrant Certificate or Warrant Certificates shall evidence, collectively, the same aggregate Denomination as the Warrant Certificate or Warrant Certificates so surrendered for split-up, combination or exchange.

(b) Loss, Theft, etc. Upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the ownership of, and the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of, any Warrant Certificate, and:

(i) in the case of loss, theft or destruction, an affidavit of loss, together with a customary and reasonable indemnity; or

1.4. Subsequent Issuance of Warrant Certificates.

Subsequent to the original issuance, no Warrant Certificates shall be issued except:

(a) Warrant Certificates issued upon any transfer, combination, split up or exchange of Warrants pursuant to Section 1.3(a) ;

(b) Warrant Certificates issued in replacement of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Warrant Certificates pursuant to Section 1.3(b) ;

(c) Warrant Certificates issued pursuant to Section 2.3 upon the partial exercise of any Warrant Certificate to evidence the unexercised portion of such Warrant Certificate; and

(d) Warrant Certificates to reflect any adjustments pursuant to Section 4 .

(b) the Company may deem and treat the Person in whose name each Warrant Certificate is registered as the absolute owner thereof and of the Warrants evidenced thereby (notwithstanding any notations of ownership or writing on the Warrant Certificates made by anyone other than the Company) for all purposes whatsoever, and the Company shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary.

2. EXERCISE OF WARRANTS; PAYMENT OF EXERCISE PRICE.

2.1. Exercise of Warrants.

(a) Manner of Exercise . At any time and from time to time prior to the Expiration Time, the holder of any Warrant Certificate may exercise the Warrants evidenced thereby, in whole or in any part, by surrender to the Company, at its office referenced in Section 6.6 , of such Warrant Certificate, together with a duly executed election to purchase (a form of which is attached to each Warrant Certificate) and payment of the applicable Exercise Price for each share of Common Stock with respect to which the Warrants are then being exercised and an amount equal to any applicable Tax (if not payable by the Company as provided in Section 3.3 ). Such Exercise Price shall be payable either:

	(i)		in cash pursuant to Section 2.1(b) ; or

	(ii)		by delivery of Warrant Certificates pursuant to Section 2.1(c) .

(b) Payment in Cash . Upon exercise of any Warrants, the holder of a Warrant Certificate may pay the Exercise Price by certified or official bank check payable to the order of the Company or by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of the Company.

(c) Net Exercise . In the event that any holder of Warrant Certificates delivers such Warrant Certificates to the Company and notifies the Company in writing that such holder intends to exercise all, or any portion of, the Warrants represented by such Warrant Certificates to satisfy its obligation to pay the Exercise Price in respect thereof by virtue of the provisions of this Section 2.1(c) , such holder shall become entitled to receive, instead of the number of shares of Common Stock such holder would have received had the Exercise Price been paid pursuant to Section 2.1(b) , a number of shares of Common Stock in respect of the exercise of such Warrants equal to the product of:

(i) the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon such exercise of such Warrant Certificate (or, if only a portion of such Warrant Certificate is being exercised, issuable upon the exercise of such portion); multiplied by

(ii) the quotient of:

(A) the difference of:

(I) the Market Price per share of Common Stock at the time of such exercise; minus

(II) the Exercise Price per share of Common Stock at the time of such exercise;

divided by

(B) the Market Price per share of Common Stock at the time of such exercise.

(d) Fractional shares of Common Stock . The Company may, in accordance with Section 2.6 , pay the exercising holder cash in lieu of issuing a fractional share in connection with an exercise of Warrants; provided that, if it does not issue a fractional share in such circumstances, it will make such cash payment.

(e) Automatic Exercise . Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any Warrants issued hereunder shall be fully exercised pursuant to Section 2.1(c) , without the need for any action by the holder thereof or the Company, immediately prior to the Expiration Time, provided that upon such automatic exercise the resulting value is greater than zero.

2.2. Issuance of Common Stock.

Upon timely receipt of a Warrant Certificate, accompanied by the form of election to purchase duly executed, and payment of the Exercise Price for each of the shares of the Common Stock to be purchased (if payable in the manner provided in Section 2.1(a)(i) ) and by an amount equal to any applicable Tax (if not payable by the Company as provided in Section 3.3 ), the Company shall thereupon promptly cause certificates representing the number of whole shares of

Common Stock then being purchased to be delivered to or upon the order of the registered holder of such Warrant Certificate, registered in such name or names as may be designated by such holder, and, promptly after such receipt deliver the cash, if any, to be paid in lieu of fractional shares pursuant to Section 2.6 to or upon the order of the registered holder of such Warrant Certificate.

2.3. Unexercised Warrants.

In the event that the registered holder of any Warrant Certificate shall exercise less than all the Warrants evidenced thereby, a new Warrant Certificate evidencing Warrants equal in number to the number of Warrants remaining unexercised shall be issued by the Company to the registered holder of such Warrant Certificate or to its duly authorized assigns.

2.4. Cancellation and Destruction of Warrant Certificates.

All Warrant Certificates surrendered to the Company for the purpose of exercise, exchange, substitution or transfer shall be cancelled by it, and no Warrant Certificates shall be issued in lieu thereof except as expressly permitted by any of the provisions of this Agreement. The Company shall cancel and retire any other Warrant Certificates purchased or acquired by the Company otherwise than upon the exercise thereof.

2.5. Expiration.

All Warrants that have not been exercised or purchased in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement shall expire and all rights of holders of such Warrants shall terminate and cease at the Expiration Time.

2.6. Fractional shares of Common Stock.

The Company shall not be required to issue fractional shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of any Warrant. If fractional shares are not issued upon the exercise of any Warrant, there shall be paid to the holder thereof, in lieu of any fractional share of Common Stock resulting therefrom, an amount of cash equal to the product of:

(a) the fractional amount of such share of Common Stock; and

(b) the Market Price, as determined on the trading day immediately prior to the date of exercise of such Warrant.

3. AGREEMENTS OF THE COMPANY.

3.1. Reservation of Common Stock.

The Company covenants and agrees that it will at all times cause to be reserved and kept available out of its authorized and unissued shares or treasury shares of Common Stock such number of shares of Common Stock as will be sufficient to permit the exercise in full of all Warrants issued hereunder into Common Stock.

3.2.

Common Stock To Be Duly Authorized and Issued, Fully Paid and Nonassessable etc; Compliance with Law

The Company covenants and agrees that it will take all such action as may be necessary to ensure that all shares of Common Stock delivered upon the exercise of any Warrant and the payment of the Exercise Price pursuant to Section 2.1 (in each case, at the time of delivery of the certificates representing such shares of Common Stock) shall (a) be duly and validly authorized and issued and fully paid and nonassessable, free of any preemptive rights in favor of any Person in respect of such issuance and free of any security interest, pledge, mortgage, lien, charge or other encumbrance created by, or arising out of actions of, the Company (other than such rights and security interests, pledges, mortgages, liens, charges, or other encumbrances, if any, arising out of the provisions of this Agreement or the Stockholders’ Agreement) and (b) be issued without violation of any applicable Law.

(ii) issue or deliver any such certificates referred to in the foregoing clause (i) until any such Tax referred to in the foregoing clause (i) shall have been paid.

3.4. Common Stock Record Date.

Each Person in whose name any certificate for shares of Common Stock is issued upon the exercise of Warrants shall for all purposes be deemed to have become the holder of record of the Common Stock represented thereby on, and such certificates (if any) shall be dated, the date upon which the Warrant Certificate evidencing such Warrants was duly surrendered with an election to purchase attached thereto duly executed and payment of the aggregate Exercise Price (and any applicable Taxes, if payable by such Person) was made.

3.5. Rights in Respect of Common Stock.

Except as otherwise set forth herein or in the Stockholders’ Agreement, prior to the exercise of the Warrants evidenced thereby, the holder of a Warrant Certificate shall not be entitled to any rights of a stockholder of the Company with respect to the Common Stock into which the Warrants shall be exercisable, including, without limitation, the right to vote in respect of any matter upon which the holders of Common Stock may vote, the right to receive any distributions of cash or property and, except as expressly set forth herein, in the Merger Agreement, in the Stockholders’ Agreement or in this Agreement, the right to receive any notice of any proceedings of the Company.

The number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon the exercise of each Warrant, and the Exercise Price, shall be subject to adjustment as set forth in this Section 4 .

4.2. Stock Splits, Subdivisions, Reclassifications or Combinations.

If the Company shall (i) declare and pay a dividend or make a distribution on its Common Stock in shares of Common Stock, (ii) subdivide or reclassify the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares, or (iii) combine or reclassify the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of any Warrants at the time of the record date for such dividend or effective date of such split, reverse split, subdivision, combination or reclassification shall be proportionately adjusted so that the holder of such Warrants after such date shall be entitled to purchase the number of shares of Common Stock which such holder would have owned or been entitled to receive in respect of the shares of Common Stock subject to such Warrants after such date had such Warrants been exercised immediately prior to such date. In such event, the Exercise Price in effect at the time of the effective date of such split, reverse split, subdivision, combination or reclassification shall be adjusted to the number obtained by dividing (x) the product of (1) the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of such Warrants before such adjustment and (2) the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the

record or effective date, as the case may be, for the dividend, distribution, split, reverse split, subdivision, combination or reclassification giving rise to this adjustment by (y) the new number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such Warrants determined pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence; provided that the Exercise Price shall not be adjusted to be less than the par value of the Common Stock.

4.3. Price Based Anti-Dilution

(a) Without duplication of the adjustments set forth in Sections 4.2 or 4.4 , (a) if the Company shall issue or sell any shares of Common Stock (as actually issued or, pursuant to Section 4.3(b) , deemed to be issued) for a consideration per share less than 90% of the Market Price per share immediately prior to such issuance or sale, or if earlier, upon the execution of the definitive documentation with respect to such issuance or sale (the “ Effective Time ”), then immediately upon the Effective Time the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of any Warrants at the time of the effective date shall be increased by multiplying such number of shares of Common Stock by a fraction, (i) the numerator of which shall be the Fully Diluted Number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time plus the number of shares of Common Stock so issued or sold, and (ii) the denominator of which shall be the Fully Diluted Number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time plus the number of shares of Common Stock which the aggregate consideration received by the Company for the total number of shares of Common Stock so issued or sold would purchase if such shares were sold at Market Price. For the purposes of this Section 4.3(a) , none of the following issuances shall be considered the issuance or sale of Common Stock:

(i) the issuance of Common Stock upon the conversion of any then-outstanding Common Stock Equivalents;

(ii) the issuance of any Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents for which the adjustment provided in Section 4.2 applies;

(iii) the issuance of shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents to Employees of the Company or any Company Subsidiary that is approved by the Board of Directors; or

(iv) the issuance of Common Stock pursuant to the terms of the Amended and Restated Rights Agreement, dated as of December 3, 2002, between the Company and American Stock Transfer and Trust Company LLC, as amended December 13, 2006, March 4, 2009 and January 24, 2010.

(b) For the purposes of Section 4.3(a) , the following subparagraphs (i) to (iii), inclusive, shall also be applicable:

(i) If the Company shall grant any rights to subscribe for, or any rights or options to purchase, Common Stock Equivalents, whether or not such rights or options or the right to convert or exchange any such Common Stock Equivalents

are immediately exercisable, and the price per share for which Common Stock is issuable upon the exercise of such rights or options or upon conversion or exchange of such Common Stock Equivalents (determined by dividing (A) the total amount, if any, received or receivable by the Company as consideration for the granting of such rights or options, plus the minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration payable to the Company upon the exercise of such rights or options, plus, in the case of any such rights or options which relate to such Common Stock Equivalents, the minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration, if any, payable upon the issue or sale of such Common Stock Equivalents and upon the conversion or exchange thereof, by (B) the total maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of such rights or options or upon the conversion or exchange of all such Common Stock Equivalents issuable upon the exercise of such rights or options) shall be less than the Market Price per share of Common Stock immediately prior to the time of the granting of such rights or options, or, if earlier, the execution of definitive documentation with respect to such grant, then the total maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of such rights or options or upon conversion or exchange of the total maximum amount of such Common Stock Equivalents issuable upon the exercise of such rights or options shall (as of the date of granting of such rights or options) be deemed to be outstanding and to have been issued for such price per share; provided that no further adjustment of the conversion price pursuant to this Section 4.3(b)(i) shall be made (i) upon the actual issuance or sale of such Common Stock Equivalents upon the exercise of any rights to subscribe for, or any rights or options to purchase, such Common Stock Equivalents or (ii) upon the actual issuance or sale of such Common Stock upon the exercise of any such Common Stock Equivalents, including without limitation, in each case of clauses (i) and (ii) with respect to shares of Common Stock Equivalents or Common Stock issued or issuable as a result of the effect of antidilution adjustments under any such security.

(ii) If the Company shall issue or sell any Common Stock Equivalents, whether or not the rights to exchange or convert thereunder are immediately exercisable, and the price per share for which Common Stock is issuable upon such conversion or exchange (determined by dividing (A) the total amount received or receivable by the Company as consideration for the issue or sale of such Common

Stock Equivalents, plus the minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration, if any, payable to the Company upon the conversion or exchange thereof, by (B) the total maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion or exchange of all such Common Stock Equivalents) shall be less than the Market Price per share of Common Stock immediately prior to the Effective Time, then the total maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion or exchange of such Common Stock Equivalents shall (as of the date of the issue or sale of such Common Stock Equivalents) be deemed to be outstanding and to have been issued for such price per share, provided that no further adjustment of the conversion price pursuant to this Section 4.3(b)(ii) shall be made upon the actual issuance or sale of such Common Stock upon the exercise of any such Common Stock Equivalents, including without limitation, in each case with respect to shares of Common Stock issued or issuable as a result of the effect of antidilution adjustments under any such security.

(iii) In case at any time any shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents or any rights or options to purchase any such Common Stock, or Common Stock Equivalents shall be issued or sold for cash, the consideration received therefor shall be deemed to be the amount received by the Company therefor. In case any shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents or any rights or options to purchase any such Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents shall be issued or sold for a consideration other than cash, the amount of the consideration other than cash received by the Company shall be deemed to be the Fair Market Value of such consideration.

4.4. Other Distributions.

In case the Company shall fix a record date for the making of a dividend or distribution to all holders of shares of its Common Stock of securities, evidences of indebtedness, assets, cash, rights or warrants (excluding dividends of its Common Stock and other dividends or distributions referred to in Section 4.2 ), in each such case, the Exercise Price in effect prior to such record date shall be reduced immediately thereafter to the price determined by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the reduction by the quotient of (x) the Market Price of the Common Stock on the last trading day preceding the first date on which the Common Stock trades on the Exchange on which the Common Stock is listed or admitted to trading without the right to receive such distribution, minus the amount of cash and/or the Fair Market Value of the securities, evidences of indebtedness, assets, rights or warrants to be so distributed in respect of one share of Common Stock (such amount and/or Fair Market Value, the “ Per Share Fair Market Value ”) divided by (y) such Market Price on such date specified in clause (x); such adjustment shall be made successively whenever such a record date is fixed. In such event, the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of any Warrants shall be increased to the number obtained by dividing (x) the product of (1) the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of such Warrants before such adjustment, and (2) the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the distribution giving rise to this adjustment by (y) the new Exercise Price determined in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence. In the event that such distribution is not so made, the Exercise Price and the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such Warrants then in effect shall be readjusted, effective as of the date when the Board of Directors determines not to distribute such shares, evidences of indebtedness, assets, rights, cash or warrants, as the case may be, to the Exercise Price that would then be in effect and the number of shares of Common Stock that would then be issuable upon exercise of such Warrants if such record date had not been fixed.

4.5. Business Combinations.

In case of any Business Combination or reclassification of Common Stock (other than a reclassification of Common Stock referred to in Section 4.2 ), a holder’s right to receive shares of

Common Stock upon exercise of any Warrants shall be converted into the right to exercise such Warrant to acquire the number of shares of stock or other securities or property (including cash) which the Common Stock issuable (at the time of such Business Combination or reclassification) upon exercise of such Warrants immediately prior to such Business Combination or reclassification would have been entitled to receive upon consummation of such Business Combination or reclassification; and in any such case, if necessary, the provisions set forth herein with respect to the rights and interests thereafter of such holder shall be appropriately adjusted so as to be applicable, as nearly as may reasonably be, to such holder’s right to exercise such Warrants in exchange for any shares of stock or other securities or property pursuant to this Section 4.5 . In determining the kind and amount of stock, securities or the property receivable upon exercise of any Warrants following the consummation of such Business Combination, if the holders of Common Stock have the right to elect the kind or amount of consideration receivable upon consummation of such Business Combination, then the holder of such Warrants shall be entitled to elect the kind or amount of consideration receivable upon consummation of such Business Combination. The Company shall not enter into or be party to any Business Combination unless the successor of the Company (if any), assumes in writing all of the obligations of the Company under this Warrant Agreement pursuant to written agreements, including agreements to deliver to each holder of Warrants hereunder in exchange for such Warrants a security of such successor evidenced by a written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to this Warrant Agreement.

4.6.

Expiration of Rights or Options.

Upon the expiration of any rights or options to subscribe for, purchase or convert or exchange Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents in respect of the issuance, sale or grant of which adjustment was made pursuant to Section 4.3 , without the exercise thereof, the Exercise Price and the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon the exercise of each Warrant shall, upon such expiration, be readjusted and shall thereafter be such Exercise Price and such number of shares of Common Stock as would have been had such Exercise Price and such number of shares of Common Stock not been originally adjusted (or had the original adjustment not been required, as the case may be), as if:

(a) the only shares of Common Stock so issued were the shares of Common Stock, if any, actually issued or sold upon the exercise of such rights or options; and

(b) such shares of Common Stock, if any, were issued or sold for the consideration actually received by the Company upon such exercise plus the aggregate consideration, if any, actually received by the Company for the issuance, sale or grant of all of such rights or options, whether or not exercised; provided that no such readjustment shall have the effect of increasing the Exercise Price by an amount in excess of the amount of the reduction initially made in respect of the issuance, sale, or grant of such rights or options.

4.7. Rounding of Calculations; Minimum Adjustments.

All calculations under this Section 4 shall be made to the nearest one-tenth (1/10th) of a cent or to the nearest one-hundredth (1/100th) of a share, as the case may be. Any provision of this Section 4 to the contrary notwithstanding, no adjustment in the Exercise Price or the number of shares of Common Stock into which any Warrants are exercisable shall be made if the amount of such adjustment would be less than $0.01 or one-tenth (1/10th) of a share of Common Stock, but any such amount shall be carried forward and an adjustment with respect thereto shall be made at the time of and together with any subsequent adjustment which, together with such amount and any other amount or amounts so carried forward, shall aggregate $0.01 or 1/10th of a share of Common Stock, or more.

4.8. Timing of Issuance of Additional Common Stock Upon Certain Adjustments .

In any case in which the provisions of this Section 4 shall require that an adjustment shall become effective immediately after a record date for an event, the Company may defer until the occurrence of such event (i) issuing to the holder of any Warrants exercised after such record date and before the occurrence of such event the additional shares of Common Stock issuable upon such exercise by reason of the adjustment required by such event over and above the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such exercise before giving effect to such adjustment and (ii) paying to such holder any amount of cash in lieu of a fractional share of Common Stock; provided, however , that the Company upon request shall deliver to such holder a due bill or other appropriate instrument evidencing such holder’s right to receive such additional shares, and such cash, upon the occurrence of the event requiring such adjustment.

effect on the Exercise Price and the number, kind or class of shares or other securities or property which shall be deliverable upon exercise of any Warrants. In the case of any action which would require the fixing of a record date, such notice shall be given at least 10 days prior to the date so fixed, and in case of all other action, such notice shall be given at least 15 days prior to the taking of such proposed action. Without limiting the foregoing, to the extent notice of any of the foregoing actions or events is given to the holders of the Common Stock, such notice shall be provided to the holders of the Warrants on or before such notice to the holders of Common Stock.

(c) Proceedings Prior to Any Action Requiring Adjustment . As a condition precedent to the taking of any action which would require an adjustment pursuant to this Section 4 , the Company shall take any action which may be necessary, including obtaining regulatory, New York Stock Exchange, NASDAQ Stock Market or other applicable national securities exchange (an “ Exchange ”) or stockholder approvals or exemptions, in order that the Company may thereafter validly and legally issue as fully paid and nonassessable all shares of Common Stock that the holders are entitled to receive upon exercise of this any Warrants pursuant to this Section 4 .

(d) Adjustment Rules . Any adjustments pursuant to this Section 4 shall be made successively whenever an event referred to herein shall occur. If more than one subsection of this Section 4 is applicable to a single event, the subsection shall be applied that produces the largest adjustment and no single event shall cause an adjustment under more than one subsection of this Section 4 so as to result in duplication. If an adjustment in Exercise Price made hereunder would reduce the Exercise Price to an amount below par value of the Common Stock, then such adjustment in Exercise Price made hereunder shall reduce the Exercise Price to the par value of the Common Stock.

ARTICLE II
THE CREDITS

Section 2.01 Commitments . Subject to the terms and conditions and relying upon the representations and warranties herein set forth, each Lender agrees, severally and not jointly:

(a) to make a Term Loan to Borrower on the Closing Date in the principal amount equal to its Term Loan Commitment;

(b) to make Revolving Loans to Borrower, at any time and from time to time after the Closing Date until the earlier of the Revolving Maturity Date and the termination of the Revolving Commitment of such Lender in accordance with the terms hereof, in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding that will not result in (x) such Lender’s Revolving Exposure exceeding such Lender’s Revolving Commitment and (y) the Revolving Exposure for all Lenders exceeding the then applicable Borrowing Base (based on the Borrowing Base Certificate last delivered).

Amounts paid or prepaid in respect of Term Loans may not be reborrowed. Subject to the terms, conditions and limitations set forth herein, Borrower may borrow, pay or prepay and reborrow Revolving Loans.

Section 2.02 Loans . (a) Each Loan (other than Swingline Loans) shall be made as part of a Borrowing consisting of Loans made by the Lenders ratably in accordance with their applicable Commitments; provided that the failure of any Lender to make any Loan shall not in itself relieve any other Lender of its obligation to lend hereunder (it being understood, however, that no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make any Loan required to be made by such other Lender). Except for Loans deemed made pursuant to Section 2.18(e)(ii) , (x) any Borrowing shall be in an

aggregate principal amount that is (i) an integral multiple of $100,000 and not less than $250,000 or (ii) equal to the remaining available balance of the applicable Commitments.

(b) Subject to Sections 2.11 and 2.12 , each Borrowing shall be comprised entirely of ABR Loans or Eurodollar Loans as Borrower may request pursuant to Section 2.03 . Each Lender may at its option make any Eurodollar Loan by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan; provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the Lender to make such Loan and Borrower to repay such Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Borrowings of more than one Type may be outstanding at the same time; provided that Borrower shall not be entitled to request any Borrowing that, if made, would result in more than ten Eurodollar Borrowings outstanding hereunder at any one time. For purposes of the foregoing, Borrowings having different Interest Periods, regardless of whether they commence on the same date, shall be considered separate Borrowings.

(c) Except with respect to Loans made pursuant to Section 2.18(e)(ii), each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such account in New York City as the Administrative Agent may designate not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly credit the amounts so received to an account as directed by Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request maintained with the Administrative Agent or, if a Borrowing shall not occur on such date because any condition precedent herein specified shall not have been met, return the amounts so received to the respective Lenders.

(d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s portion of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such portion available to the Administrative Agent on the date of such Borrowing in accordance with paragraph (c) above, and the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to), in reliance upon such assumption, make available to Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If the Administrative Agent shall have so made funds available, then, to the extent that such Lender shall not have made such portion available to the Administrative Agent, such Lender agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to Borrower until the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules or practices on interbank compensation. If such Lender shall repay to the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount, such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan as part of such Borrowing for purposes of this Agreement, and Borrower’s obligation to repay the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount pursuant to this Section 2.02(d) shall cease.

(e) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, Borrower shall not be entitled to request, or to elect to convert or continue, any Borrowing if the Interest Period requested with respect thereto would end after the Revolving Maturity Date or the Term Loan Maturity Date, as applicable.

Section 2.03 Borrowing Procedure . To request a Revolving Borrowing or Term Borrowing, Borrower shall deliver, by hand delivery or facsimile transmission (or transmit by other electronic transmission if arrangements for doing so have been approved in writing by the Administrative Agent), a duly completed and executed Borrowing Request to the Administrative Agent (i) in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, not later than 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on the third Business Day before the date of the proposed Borrowing (or such later time as may be reasonably acceptable to the Administrative

Agent, in the case of any Borrowing, or the Issuing Bank, in the case of any issuance, amendment, extension or renewal of a Letter of Credit) or (ii) in the case of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 4:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Business Day prior to the proposed Borrowing (or such time as may be reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent). Each Borrowing Request shall be irrevocable and shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02 :

(a) whether the requested Borrowing is to be a Borrowing of Revolving Loans or Term Loans;

(b) the aggregate amount of such Borrowing;

(d) whether such Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a Eurodollar Borrowing;

(e) in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, the initial Interest Period to be applicable thereto, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period”;

(f) the location and number of Borrower’s account to which funds are to be disbursed, which shall comply with the requirements of Section 2.02(c) ; and

(g) that the conditions set forth in Sections 4.02(b)— (d) are satisfied as of the date of the notice.

If no election as to the Type of Borrowing is specified, then the requested Borrowing shall be an ABR Borrowing. If no Interest Period is specified with respect to any requested Eurodollar Revolving Borrowing, then Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration. Promptly following receipt of a Borrowing Request in accordance with this Section 2.03 , the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and of the amount of such Lender’s Loan to be made as part of the requested Borrowing.

Borrower to each Lender hereunder; and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders and each Lender’s share thereof.

(d) Absent manifest error, the entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraphs (b) and (c) above shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations therein recorded; provided that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligations of Borrower to repay the Loans in accordance with their terms.

(e) Any Lender by written notice to Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) may request that Loans of any Class made by it be evidenced by a promissory note. In such event, Borrower shall prepare promptly (and, in all events, within five Business Days of receipt of such request), execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to the order of such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its registered assigns) in the form of Exhibit H-1, H-2 or H-3 , as the case may be. Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such promissory note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 11.04 ) be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form payable to the order of the payee named therein (or, if such promissory note is a registered note, to such payee and its registered assigns).

Accrued Commitment Fees shall be payable in arrears (A) on the last Business Day of March, June, September and December of each year, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Closing Date, and (B) on the date on which such Commitment terminates. Commitment Fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). For purposes of computing Commitment Fees, a Revolving Commitment of a Lender shall be deemed to be used to the extent of the outstanding Revolving Loans and LC Exposure of such Lender, and the Swingline Exposure of such Lender shall be disregarded for such purpose.

(b) Administrative Agent Fees . Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for its own account, the administrative fees set forth in the Fee Letter or such other fees payable in the amounts and at the times separately agreed upon between Borrower and the Administrative Agent (the “ Administrative Agent Fees ”).

(ii) if all or any portion of such Net Cash Proceeds shall not be so applied or committed to be so applied within such 180-day period, such unused portion shall be applied on the last day of such period as a mandatory prepayment as provided in this Section 2.10(f) .

(g) Excess Cash Flow . No later than the earlier of (i) 90 days after the end of each Excess Cash Flow Period and (ii) five Business Days after the date on which the audited financial statements with respect to such fiscal year in which such Excess Cash Flow Period occurs are delivered pursuant to Section 5.01(a) , Borrower shall make prepayments in accordance with Sections 2.10(h) and (i) , in an aggregate principal amount equal to the following percentage of Excess Cash Flow for the Excess Cash Flow Period then ended based on the Total Leverage Ratio at the end of such Excess Cash Flow Period:


	Percentage of
Total Leverage Ratio	Excess Cash Flow
Greater than or equal to 3.00:1.00		50.0	%
Less than 3.00:1.00		25.0	%

(h) Application of Prepayments .

(i) Prior to any optional or mandatory prepayment hereunder, Borrower shall select the Borrowing or Borrowings to be prepaid and shall specify such selection in the notice of such prepayment pursuant to Section 2.10(i) , subject to the provisions of this Section 2.10(h) . Any prepayments of Term Loans pursuant to Sections 2.10(c)-(g) shall be applied first to reduce scheduled payments required under Section 2.09(a) on a pro rata basis among the scheduled principal payments to be made on the next four Term Loan Repayment Dates in order of maturity and thereafter on a pro rata basis among the payments remaining to be made on each Term Loan Repayment Date, second to the extent there are prepayment amounts remaining after the application of such prepayments under clause first , such excess amounts shall be applied to the prepayment of outstanding Revolving Loans (including to cash collateralize outstanding Letters of Credit) (but without any corresponding reduction in Revolving Commitments unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing) and Borrower shall comply with Section 2.10(b) and third , to redeem the Senior Notes to the extent required under the Senior Note Agreement. Optional prepayments of Term Loans shall reduce scheduled payments required under Section 2.09(a) on a pro rata basis. Any prepayments of Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.10(a) shall be applied to reduce scheduled payments required under Section 2.09(a) on a pro rata basis among the scheduled principal payments to be made on each Term Loan Repayment Date.

(ii) Amounts to be applied pursuant to this Section 2.10 to the prepayment of Term Loans and Revolving Loans shall be applied, as applicable, first to reduce outstanding ABR Term Loans and ABR Revolving Loans, respectively. Any amounts remaining after each such application shall be applied to prepay Eurodollar Term Loans or Eurodollar Revolving Loans, as applicable.

(i) Notice of Prepayment . Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent (and, in the case of prepayment of a Swingline Loan, the Swingline Lender) by written notice of any prepayment hereunder (i) in the case of prepayment of a Eurodollar Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the third Business Day before the date of prepayment, (ii) in the case of prepayment of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, one Business Day before the date of prepayment and (iii) in the case of prepayment of a Swingline Loan, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the date of prepayment. Each such notice shall be irrevocable. Each such notice shall specify the prepayment date, the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid and, in the case of a mandatory prepayment, a reasonably detailed calculation of the amount of such prepayment. Promptly following receipt of any such notice (other than a notice relating solely to Swingline Loans), the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Such notice to the Lenders may be by electronic communication. Each partial prepayment of any Borrowing shall be in an amount that would be permitted in the case of a Borrowing of the same Type as provided in Section 2.02 , except as necessary to apply fully the required amount of a mandatory prepayment. Each prepayment of a Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in the prepaid Borrowing and otherwise in accordance with this Section 2.10 . Prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the extent required by Section 2.06 .

(j) Waiver of Mandatory Prepayments . Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.10 , (i) in the case of any mandatory prepayment of the Term Loans, Term Loan Lenders may waive by written notice to Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or before the date on which such mandatory prepayment would otherwise be required to be made hereunder the right to receive the amount of such mandatory prepayment of the Term Loans, (ii) if any Term Loan Lender or Term Loan Lenders elect to waive the right to receive the amount of such mandatory prepayment, all of the amount that otherwise would have been applied to mandatorily prepay the Term Loans of such Lender or Lenders shall be offered by Borrower to the remaining non-waiving Term Loan Lender or Term Loan Lenders on a pro rata basis, based on the respective principal amounts of their outstanding Term Loans, (iii) if and to the extent any such non-waiving Term Loan Lender does not elect by written notice to Borrower and the Administrative Agent within three Business Days following the date on which the offer is made pursuant to clause (ii) above to accept such offer, such Term Loan Lender shall be deemed to have rejected such offer, (iv) any amounts not applied to the prepayment of Term Loans pursuant to clause (ii) or clause (iii) above shall be applied instead on the fourth Business Day following the date on which the offer is made to Term Loan Lenders pursuant to clause (ii) above to the prepayment of outstanding Revolving Loans (but without any corresponding reduction in Revolving Commitments) and (v) to the extent there are any prepayment amounts remaining after the foregoing application, such amounts shall be paid promptly by the Administrative Agent to Borrower.

Section 2.11 Alternate Rate of Interest . If the Administrative Agent, in good faith and in its reasonable discretion, shall determine that for any reason in connection with any request for a Eurodollar Loan or a ABR Loan as to which the interest rate is determined with reference to the Adjusted LIBOR Rate or a conversion to or continuation thereof that (a) Dollar deposits are not being offered to banks in the London interbank eurodollar market for the applicable amount and Interest Period of such Loan, (b) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the Adjusted LIBOR Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Eurodollar Loan or in connection with a ABR Loan, or (c) the Adjusted LIBOR Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Eurodollar Loan or in connection with a Eurodollar Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding such Loan as a result of events occurring after the Closing Date, the Administrative Agent will promptly so notify Borrower and each Lender. Thereafter, the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain Eurodollar Loans and ABR Loans as to which the interest rate is determined with reference to the Adjusted LIBOR Rate shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent revokes such notice and during such period ABR Loans shall be made and continued based on the interest rate determined by the greater of clauses (a) and (b) in the definition of Alternate Base Rate. Upon receipt of such notice, Borrower may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Eurodollar Loans (without penalty) or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a Borrowing of ABR Loans in the amount specified therein.

Section 2.12 Increased Costs; Change in Legality . (a) If any Change in Law shall:

(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against property of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender (except any such reserve requirement reflected in the Adjusted LIBOR Rate) or the Issuing Bank; or

(ii) impose on any Lender or the Issuing Bank or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense affecting this Agreement or Eurodollar Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any Eurodollar Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) or to increase

the cost to such Lender, the Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company, if any, of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or the Issuing Bank hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), as determined by such Lender or the Issuing Bank, in good faith, in its reasonable discretion, then Borrower will pay to such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered provided that the foregoing shall not apply to any such costs incurred more than 365 days prior to the date on which Borrower receives a certificate in regard thereto, as provided in subsection (c) below; it being understood that, to the extent duplicative of the provisions of Section 2.15 , this Section 2.12 shall not apply to Taxes. The protection of this Section 2.12 shall be available to each Lender and the Issuing Bank regardless of any possible contention of the invalidity or inapplicability of the Change in Law that shall have occurred or been imposed.

(b) If any Lender or the Issuing Bank determines (in good faith in its reasonable absolute discretion) that any Change in Law regarding Capital Requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitment of such Lender or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit or Swingline Loans held by such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by the Issuing Bank, to a level below that which such Lender or the Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time Borrower will pay to such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company, for any such reduction suffered; provided that the foregoing shall not apply to any such costs incurred more than 365 days prior to the date on which Borrower receives a certificate in regard thereto, as provided in subsection (c) below.

(c) A certificate of a Lender or the Issuing Bank setting forth in reasonable detail the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or the Issuing Bank or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 2.12 shall be delivered to Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) and shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error. Borrower shall pay such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.

(d) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or the Issuing Bank to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 2.12 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s right to demand such compensation, except as otherwise expressly provided in subsection (a) and (b) above.

(e) If any Lender determines in good faith in its reasonable discretion that any Change in Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender to make, maintain or fund Eurodollar Rate Loans, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Adjusted LIBOR 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 in the London interbank market, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to Borrower through the Administrative Agent, any obligation of such Lender to make or continue Eurodollar Loans or to convert ABR Loans to Eurodollar Loans or, if such notice relates to the unlawfulness or asserted unlawfulness of charging interest based on the Adjusted LIBOR Rate, to make ABR Loans as to which the interest rate is determined with reference to the Eurodollar Rate shall be suspended until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such

notice, Borrower shall, within one Business Day after demand from such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), prepay or, if applicable, convert all Eurodollar Loans of such Lender and ABR Loans as to which the interest rate is determined with reference to the Adjusted LIBOR Rate to ABR Loans as to which the rate of interest is not determined with reference to the Adjusted LIBOR Rate, either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Eurodollar Loans to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Eurodollar Loans or a ABR Loan as to which the interest rate is determined with reference to the Adjusted LIBOR Rate. Notwithstanding the foregoing and despite the illegality for such a Lender to make, maintain or fund Eurodollar Loans or ABR Loans as to which the interest rate is determined with reference to the Adjusted LIBOR Rate, that Lender shall remain committed to make ABR Loans as to which the rate of interest is not determined with reference to the Adjusted LIBOR Rate and shall be entitled to recover interest at such Adjusted Base Rate. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted.

(f) For purposes of paragraph (e) of this Section 2.12 , a notice to Borrower by any Lender shall be effective as to each Eurodollar Loan made by such Lender, if lawful, on the last day of the Interest Period then applicable to such Eurodollar Loan; in all other cases such notice shall be effective on the date of receipt by Borrower.

Section 2.13 Breakage Payments . In the event of (a) the payment or prepayment, whether optional or mandatory, of any principal of any Eurodollar Loan earlier than the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the conversion of any Eurodollar Loan earlier than the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, to the extent thereof, (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Revolving Loan or Term Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto, to the extent thereof, or (d) the assignment of any Eurodollar Loan earlier than the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by Borrower pursuant to Section 2.16 , to the extent thereof, then, in any such event, Borrower shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event. In the case of a Eurodollar Loan, such loss, cost or expense to any Lender shall be deemed to include an amount reasonably determined by such Lender in good faith to be the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had such event not occurred, at the Adjusted LIBOR Rate plus the Applicable Margin (together with any interest then payable at the Default Rate) that would have been applicable to such Loan, for the period from the date of such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, for the period that would have been the Interest Period for such Loan), in excess of (ii) the amount of interest which would accrue on such principal amount for such period at the interest rate which such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of such period, for Dollar deposits of a comparable amount and period from other banks in the Eurodollar market. A certificate of any Lender setting forth in reasonable detail any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 2.13 shall be delivered to Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) and shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error. Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten days after receipt thereof.

Section 2.14 Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Setoffs . (a) Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder or under any other Loan Document (whether of principal, interest, fees or Reimbursement Obligations, or of amounts payable under Section 2.12 , 2.13 or 2.15, or otherwise) on or before the time expressly required hereunder or under such other Loan Document for such payment (or, if no such time is expressly required, prior to 2:00 p.m., New York City time), on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without setoff, deduction or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for

purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent at its offices at 520 Madison Avenue, New York, New York 10022 Attn: BioScrip Account Manager, except payments to be made directly to the Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender as expressly provided herein and except that payments pursuant to Sections 2.12 , 2.13 , 2.15 and 11.03 shall be made directly to the persons entitled thereto and payments pursuant to other Loan Documents shall be made to the persons specified therein. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. If any payment under any Loan Document shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, unless specified otherwise, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension. All payments under each Loan Document shall be made in Dollars.

(b) If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, Reimbursement Obligations, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first , towards payment of interest and fees then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and fees then due to such parties, and (ii) second , towards payment of principal and Reimbursement Obligations then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal and Reimbursement Obligations then due to such parties.

(c) If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise (including by exercise of its rights under the Security Agreement), obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Revolving Loans, Term Loans or participations in LC Disbursements or Swingline Loans resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Revolving Loans, Term Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Revolving Loans, Term Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans of other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Revolving Loans, Term Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans; 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 paragraph shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Revolving Loans, Term Loans or participations in LC Disbursements or Swingline Loans to any assignee or participant, other than to any Company or any Affiliates (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply). Each Loan Party consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable Legal Requirements, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against each Loan Party rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of such Loan Party in the amount of such participation. If under applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or any similar law any Secured Party receives a secured claim in lieu of a setoff or counterclaim to which this Section 2.14(c) applies, such Secured Party shall to the extent practicable, exercise its rights in respect of such secured claim in a manner consistent with the rights to which the Secured Party is entitled under this Section 2.14(c) to share in the benefits of the recovery of such secured claim.

(d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or the Issuing Bank hereunder that Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may

assume that Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders the amount due. In such event, if Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or the Issuing Bank with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules or practices on interbank compensation.

(e) If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.02(c) , 2.14(d) , 2.17(d) , 2.18(d) , 2.18(e) or 11.03(e) , then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations under such Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid.

Section 2.15 Taxes . (a) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made without setoff, counterclaim or other defense and free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for any and all Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes; provided that if Borrower shall be required by applicable Legal Requirements to deduct any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes from such payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions or withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.15 ) the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions or withholdings been made, (ii) Borrower shall make such deductions or withholdings and (iii) Borrower shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Legal Requirements.

(b) In addition, Borrower shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Legal Requirements.

(c) Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Lender and the Issuing Bank, within 10 Business Days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes paid by the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.15 ) and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to Borrower by a Lender or the Issuing Bank (in each case, with a copy delivered concurrently to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender or the Issuing Bank, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d) As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes and in any event within 30 days following any such payment being due, by Borrower to a Governmental Authority, Borrower 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 the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. If Borrower fails to pay any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes when due to the appropriate Governmental Authority or fails to remit to the Administrative Agent the required receipts or other documentary evidence, Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Lender and the Issuing Bank for any

incremental Taxes or expenses that may become payable by the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, as a result of any such failure.

(e) Any Foreign Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which Borrower is resident for tax purposes, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments under this Agreement shall deliver to Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Foreign Lender shall (i) furnish on or prior to the date it becomes a party hereto, either (a) two accurate and completed originally executed U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN (or successor form), (b) two accurate and complete originally executed U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI (or successor form), or (c) two accurate and complete originally executed U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY (or successor form), together with any required schedules or attachments, certifying, in each case, to such Foreign Lender’s legal entitlement to an exemption or reduction from U.S. federal withholding tax with respect to all interest payments hereunder, and (ii) to the extent it may lawfully do so at such times, provide a new Form W-8BEN (or successor form), Form W-8ECI (or successor form) or Form W-8IMY (or successor form) upon the expiration or obsolescence of any previously delivered form, or at any other time upon the reasonable request of Borrower or the Administrative Agent, to reconfirm any complete exemption from, or any entitlement to a reduction in, U.S. federal withholding tax with respect to any interest payment hereunder; provided that any Foreign Lender that is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code shall also furnish a “Non-Bank Certificate” in the form of Exhibit K if it is furnishing a Form W-8BEN. If requested by Borrower or the Administrative Agent, each Foreign Lender shall (and shall cause other Persons acting on its behalf to) take any action (including entering into an agreement with the Internal Revenue Service) and comply with any information gathering and reporting requirements, in each case, that are required to obtain the maximum available exemption from U.S. federal withholding taxes under Title I of the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act of 2009 (the “ Proposed Act ”), if enacted, or under any other enacted legislation that is substantially similar to Title I of the Proposed Act, with respect to payments received by or on behalf of such Foreign Lender, provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, a Foreign Lender’s breach of this sentence shall affect the rights only of the breaching Foreign Lender, and not the rights of any other Foreign Lender, under Section 2.15(a) .

(f) If the Administrative Agent or a Lender (or an assignee) determines in its reasonable discretion that it has received a refund of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by Borrower or with respect to which Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.15 , it shall pay over such refund to Borrower (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by Borrower under this Section 2.15 with respect to the Indemnified Taxes or the Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent or such Lender (or assignee) and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided , however, that if the Administrative Agent or such Lender (or assignee) is required to repay all or a portion of such refund to the relevant Governmental Authority, Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender (or assignee), shall repay the amount paid over to Borrower that is required to be repaid (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent or such Lender (or assignee) within a reasonable time (not to exceed 20 days) after receipt of written notice that the Administrative Agent or such Lender (or assignee) is required to repay such refund (or a portion thereof) to such Governmental Authority. Nothing contained in this Section 2.15(f) shall require the Administrative Agent or any Lender (or assignee) to make available its Tax Returns or any other information which it deems confidential to Borrower or any other person.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, in no event will the Administrative Agent or any Lender (or assignee) be required to pay any amount to Borrower the payment of which would place the Administrative Agent or such Lender (or assignee) in a less favorable net after-tax position than the Administrative Agent or such Lender (or assignee) would have been in if the additional amounts giving rise to such refund of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes had never been paid.

Section 2.16 Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders . (a) Mitigation of Obligations . If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.12(a) or (b) , or if Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.15 , then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce materially amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.12(a) , 2.12(b) , or 2.15 , as the case may be, in the future, (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense, (iii) would not require such Lender to take any action materially inconsistent with its internal policies or legal or regulatory restrictions, and (iv) would not otherwise be materially disadvantageous to such Lender. Borrower shall pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment. A certificate setting forth such costs and expenses in reasonable detail submitted by such Lender to the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(b) Replacement of Lenders . In the event (i) any Lender or the Issuing Bank delivers a certificate requesting compensation pursuant to Section 2.12(a) or (b) , (ii) any Lender or the Issuing Bank delivers a notice described in Section 2.12(e) , (iii) Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or the Issuing Bank or any Governmental Authority on account of any Lender or the Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.15 , (iv) any Lender refuses to consent to any amendment, waiver or other modification of any Loan Document requested by Borrower that requires the consent of 100% of the Lenders and the Required Lenders have granted consent, or (v) any Lender or the Issuing Bank defaults in its obligations to make Loans or issue Letters of Credit, as the case may be, or other extensions of credit hereunder, Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort (including with respect to the processing and recordation fee referred to in Section 11.04(b)) , upon notice to such Lender or the Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender or the Issuing Bank to transfer and assign, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 11.04 ), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee which shall assume such assigned obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (w) no Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (x) such assignment shall not conflict with any applicable Legal Requirement, (y) Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent (and, if a Revolving Commitment is being assigned, the prior written consent of the Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender), which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld or delayed, and (z) Borrower or such assignee shall have paid to the affected Lender or the Issuing Bank in immediately available funds an amount equal to the sum of the principal of and interest and any prepayment premium or penalty (if any) accrued to the date of such payment on the outstanding Loans or LC Disbursements of such Lender or the Issuing Bank, respectively, affected by such assignment plus all Fees and other amounts owing to or accrued for the account of such Lender or such Issuing Bank hereunder (including any amounts under Sections 2.12 and 2.13 ); provided further that, if prior to any such transfer and assignment the circumstances or event that resulted in such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s claim for compensation under Section 2.12(a) or (b) or notice under Section 2.12(e) or the amounts paid pursuant to Section 2.15 , as the case may be, cease to cause such Lender or the Issuing Bank to suffer increased costs or reductions in amounts received or receivable or reduction in return on capital, or cease to have the consequences specified in Section 2.12(e) , or cease to result in amounts being payable under Section 2.15 , as the case may be (including as a result of any action taken by such Lender or the Issuing Bank pursuant

to paragraph (a) of this Section 2.16 ), or if such Lender or the Issuing Bank shall waive its right to claim further compensation under Section 2.12(a) or (b) in respect of such circumstances or event or shall withdraw its notice under Section 2.12(e) or shall waive its right to further payments under Section 2.15 in respect of such circumstances or event or shall consent to the proposed amendment, waiver, consent or other modification, as the case may be, then such Lender or the Issuing Bank shall not thereafter be required to make any such transfer and assignment hereunder. Each Lender and the Issuing Bank hereby irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent to execute and deliver, on behalf of such Lender and the Issuing Bank as assignor, any Assignment and Acceptance necessary to effectuate any assignment of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s interests hereunder in the circumstances contemplated by this Section 2.16(b) .

(c) Defaulting Lenders . Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event that any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then (i) during any Default Period (as defined below) with respect to such Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender shall be deemed not to be a “Lender”, and the amount of such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Commitment and Revolving Loans and/or Term Loan Commitments and Term Loans shall be excluded for purposes of voting, and the calculation of voting, on any matters (including the granting of any consents or waivers) with respect to any of the Loan Documents; (ii) to the extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, until such time as the Default Excess (as defined below) with respect to such Defaulting Lender shall have been reduced to zero, (A) any voluntary prepayment of the Loans pursuant to Section 2.10(a) shall, if Borrower so directs at the time of making such voluntary prepayment, be applied to the Loans of other Lenders in accordance with Section 2.10(a) as if such Defaulting Lender had no Loans outstanding and the Revolving Exposure of such Defaulting Lender were zero, and (B) any mandatory prepayment of the Loans pursuant to Section 2.10 shall, if Borrower so directs at the time of making such mandatory prepayment, be applied to the Loans of other Lenders (but not to the Loans of such Defaulting Lender) in accordance with Section 2.10 as if such Defaulting Lender had funded all Defaulted Revolving Loans of such Defaulting Lender, it being understood and agreed that borrower shall be entitled to retain any portion of any mandatory prepayment of the Loans that is not paid to such Defaulting Lender solely as a result of the operation of the provisions of this clause (B); (iii) the amount of such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Commitment, Revolving Loans and LC Exposure shall be excluded for purposes of calculating the commitment fee payable to Revolving Lenders pursuant to Section 2.05(a) in respect of any day during any Default Period with respect to such Defaulting Lender, and such Defaulting Lender shall not be entitled to receive any commitment fee pursuant to Section 2.05(a) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Commitment in respect of any Default Period with respect to such Defaulting Lender; (iv) if any Swingline Exposure or LC Exposure exists at the time a Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender then: (A) all or any part of such Swingline Exposure and LC Exposure shall be reallocated among the Revolving Lenders that are not Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Revolving Commitments but, in any case, only to the extent (x) the sum of the Revolving Exposures of all Revolving Lenders that are not Defaulting Lenders does not exceed the total of the Revolving Commitments of all Revolving Lenders that are not Defaulting Lenders and (y) the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 are satisfied at such time; (B) if the reallocation described in clause (A) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, Borrower shall within one Business Day following notice by the Administrative Agent (x) prepay such Swingline Exposure of such Defaulting Lender and (y) cash collateralize such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (A) above) in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.18(i) for so long as such LC Exposure is outstanding; (C) if Borrower cash collateralizes any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure pursuant to this paragraph (iv), Borrower shall not be required to pay any LC Participation Fee to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.05(c) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure during the period such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is cash collateralized; (D) if the LC Exposure of the non-Defaulting Lenders is reallocated pursuant to this paragraph (iv), then the fees payable to the Lenders pursuant to Section 2.05 shall be adjusted in accordance with such non-

Defaulting Lenders’ reallocated LC Exposure; and (E) if any Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is neither cash collateralized nor reallocated pursuant to this paragraph (iv), then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of the Issuing Banks or any Lender hereunder, all commitment fees that otherwise would have been payable to such Defaulting Lender (solely with respect to the portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment that was utilized by such LC Exposure) and LC Participation Fee payable under Section 2.05 with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure shall be payable to the applicable Issuing Banks until such LC Exposure is cash collateralized and/or reallocated; (v) the Revolving Exposure of all Lenders as at any date of determination shall be calculated as if such Defaulting Lender had funded all Defaulted Revolving Loans of such Defaulting Lender; and (vi) so long as any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the Swingline Lender shall not be required to fund any Swingline Loan and no Issuing Bank shall be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless it is satisfied that the related exposure will be 100% covered by the Commitments of the non-Defaulting Lenders and/or cash collateral will be provided by Borrower in accordance with paragraph (iv) of this Section 2.16(c), and participating interests in any such newly issued or increased Letter of Credit or newly made Swingline Loan shall be allocated among non-Defaulting Lenders in a manner consistent with paragraph (iv)(A) of this Section 2.16(c) (and Defaulting Lenders shall not participate therein). In the event that each of the Administrative Agent, Borrower, the Issuing Banks and the Swingline Lender agree that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then the Swingline Exposure, LC Exposure and Revolving Exposure of the Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Lender’s Commitment and on such date such Lender shall purchase at par such of the Loans of the other Lenders (other than Swingline Loans) as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Lender to hold such Loans in accordance with its Revolving Commitment.

For purposes of this Agreement, (i) “ Funding Default ” means, with respect to any Defaulting Lender, the occurrence of any of the events set forth in the definition of “Defaulting Lender,” (ii) “ Default Period ” means, with respect to any Defaulting Lender, the period commencing on the date of the applicable Funding Default and ending on the earliest of the following dates: (a) the date on which all Commitments are cancelled or terminated and/or the Obligations are declared or become immediately due and payable, (b) with respect any Funding Default (other than any such Funding Default arising pursuant to clause (e) of the definition of “Defaulting Lender”), the date on which (1) the Default Excess with respect to such Defaulting Lender shall have been reduced to zero (whether by the funding by such Defaulting Lender of any Defaulted Loans of such Defaulting Lender or by the non-pro rata application of any voluntary or mandatory prepayments of the Loans in accordance with the terms hereof or any combination thereof) and (2) such Defaulting Lender shall have delivered to Borrower and the Administrative Agent a written reaffirmation of its intention to honor its obligations under this Agreement with respect to its Commitment(s), and (c) the date on which Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders waive all Funding Defaults of such Defaulting Lender in writing, and (iii) “ Default Excess ” shall mean, with respect to any Defaulting Lender, the excess, if any, of such Defaulting Lender’s pro rata percentage of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Loans of all Lenders (calculated as if all Defaulting Lenders (including such Defaulting Lender) had funded all of their respective Defaulted Loans) over the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Loans of such Defaulting Lender.

No amount of the Commitment of any Lender shall be increased or otherwise affected, and, except as otherwise expressly provided in Section 2.16(c) , performance by Borrower of its obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not be excused or otherwise modified, as a result of any Funding Default or the operation of Section 2.16(c) . The rights and remedies against a Defaulting Lender under Section 2.16(c) are in addition to other rights and remedies that Borrower may have against such Defaulting Lender with respect to any Funding Default and that the

Administrative Agent or any Lender may have against such Defaulting Lender with respect to any Funding Default.

Section 2.17 Swingline Loans . (a) Swingline Commitment . Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Swingline Lender agrees to make Swingline Loans to Borrower from time to time on any Business Day during the Revolving Availability Period, in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding that will not result in (and upon each such Borrowing of Swingline Loans, Borrower shall be deemed to represent and warrant that such Borrowing will not result in) (i) the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Swingline Loans exceeding the Swingline Commitment, (ii) the sum of the total Revolving Exposures exceeding the total Revolving Commitments or (iii) the Revolving Exposure for all Lenders exceeding the Borrowing Base; provided that the Swingline Lender shall not be required to make a Swingline Loan to refinance, in whole or in part, an outstanding Swingline Loan. Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, Borrower may borrow, repay and reborrow Swingline Loans.

(b) Swingline Loans . To request a Swingline Loan, Borrower shall deliver, by hand delivery or facsimile transmission (or transmit by other electronic transmission if arrangements for doing so have been approved in writing by the Administrative Agent), a duly completed and executed Borrowing Request to the Administrative Agent and the Swingline Lender, not later than 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Business Day of a proposed Swingline Loan. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the requested date (which shall be a Business Day) and the amount of the requested Swingline Loan. Each Swingline Loan shall be an ABR Loan. The Swingline Lender shall make each Swingline Loan available to Borrower by means of a credit to the Borrower Account by the Swingline Lender (or, in the case of a Swingline Loan made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.18(e) , by remittance to the Issuing Bank). The Swingline Lender shall endeavor to fund each Swingline Loan by 3:00 p.m., New York City time and shall in all events fund each Swingline Loan by no later than 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the requested date of such Swingline Loan. Borrower shall not request a Swingline Loan if at the time of or immediately after giving effect to the Credit Extension contemplated by such request a Default has occurred and is continuing or would result therefrom. Swingline Loans shall be made in minimum amounts of $100,000 and integral multiples of $50,000 above such amount.

(c) Prepayment . Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to repay any Swingline Loan, in whole or in part, upon giving written notice to the Swingline Lender and the Administrative Agent before 12:00 p.m., New York City time, on the proposed date of repayment.

(d) Participations . The Swingline Lender (i) may at any time in its discretion, and (ii) no less frequently than every five Business Days or as directed by the Administrative Agent from time to time on not less than one Business Day’s written notice to the Swingline Lender, shall by written notice given to the Administrative Agent ( provided such notice requirements shall not apply if the Swingline Lender and the Administrative Agent are the same entity) not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the next succeeding Business Day following such notice require the Revolving Lenders to acquire participations on such Business Day in all or a portion of the Swingline Loans then outstanding. Such notice shall specify the aggregate amount of Swingline Loans in which Revolving Lenders will participate. Promptly upon receipt of such notice, the Administrative Agent will give notice thereof to each Revolving Lender, specifying in such notice such Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of such Swingline Loan or Loans. Each Revolving Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees, upon receipt of notice as provided above, to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Swingline Lender, such Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of such Swingline Loan or Loans. Each Revolving Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations in Swingline Loans pursuant to this paragraph is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever,

including the occurrence and continuance of a Default, a reduction or termination of the Commitments or a Borrowing Base Deficiency, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever (so long as such payment shall not cause such Lender’s Revolving Exposure to exceed such Lender’s Revolving Commitment). Each Revolving Lender shall comply with its obligation under this paragraph by wire transfer of immediately available funds, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.02(c) with respect to Loans made by such Lender (and Section 2.02 shall apply, mutatis mutandis , to the payment obligations of the Revolving Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the Swingline Lender the amounts so received by it from the Revolving Lenders; provided, that the Revolving Lender who is the Swingline Lender shall be deemed to have funded its Pro Rata Percentage automatically without further funding. The Administrative Agent shall notify Borrower of any participations in any Swingline Loan acquired by the Revolving Lenders pursuant to this paragraph, and thereafter payments in respect of such Swingline Loan shall be made to the Administrative Agent and not to the Swingline Lender. Any amounts received by the Swingline Lender from Borrower (or other party on behalf of Borrower) in respect of a Swingline Loan after receipt by the Swingline Lender of the proceeds of a sale of participations therein shall be promptly remitted to the Administrative Agent. Any such amounts received by the Administrative Agent shall be promptly remitted by the Administrative Agent to the Revolving Lenders that shall have made their payments pursuant to this paragraph, as their interests may appear. The purchase of participations in a Swingline Loan pursuant to this paragraph shall not relieve Borrower of any default in the payment thereof.

(e) Resignation or Removal of the Swingline Lender . The Swingline Lender may resign as Swingline Lender hereunder at any time upon at least 30 days’ prior written notice to the Lenders, the Administrative Agent and Borrower, provided that such Swingline Lender is replaced by a successor Swingline Lender simultaneously with its resignation. Following such notice of resignation from the Swingline Lender, the Swingline Lender may be replaced at any time by written agreement among Borrower (with Borrower’s agreement not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), the Administrative Agent, the replaced Swingline Lender and the successor Swingline Lender. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such replacement of the Swingline Lender. At the time any such resignation or replacement shall become effective, Borrower shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced Swingline Lender. From and after the effective date of any such resignation or replacement, (i) the successor Swingline Lender shall have all the rights and obligations of the Swingline Lender under this Agreement with respect to Swingline Loans to be made by it thereafter and (ii) references herein and in the other Loan Documents to the term “Swingline Lender” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Swingline Lenders, or to such successor and all previous Swingline Lenders, as the context shall require. After the resignation or replacement of the Swingline Lender hereunder, the replaced Swingline Lender shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of the Swingline Lender under this Agreement with respect to Swingline Loans made by it prior to such resignation or replacement, but shall not be required to make additional Swingline Loans. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.17(e) or otherwise, the Swingline Lender may not resign until such time as a successor Swingline Lender has been appointed.

Section 2.18 Letters of Credit . (a) General . Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, Borrower may request the Issuing Bank, and the Issuing Bank agrees, to issue Letters of Credit for its own account or the account of a Subsidiary in a form reasonably acceptable to Borrower (with Borrower’s agreement not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank, at any time and from time to time during the Revolving Availability Period ( provided that Borrower shall be a co-applicant, and be jointly and severally liable, with respect to each Letter of Credit issued for the account of a Subsidiary). The Issuing Bank shall have no obligation to issue, and Borrower shall not request the issuance of, any Letter of Credit at any time if after giving effect to such issuance, (w) the LC Exposure would exceed the LC Commitment, (x) the total Revolving

Exposure would exceed the total Revolving Commitments, (y) the Revolving Exposure for all Lenders would then exceed the Borrowing Base, or (z) the expiry date of the proposed Letter of Credit is on or after than the close of business on the Letter of Credit Expiration Date. In the event of any inconsistency between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms and conditions of any form of letter of credit application or other agreement submitted by Borrower to, or entered into by Borrower with, the Issuing Bank relating to any Letter of Credit, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control.

(b) Request for Issuance, Amendment, Renewal, Extension; Certain Conditions . To request the issuance of a Letter of Credit or the amendment, renewal or extension of an outstanding Letter of Credit, Borrower shall hand deliver or facsimile transmission (or transmit by electronic communication if arrangements for doing so have been approved by the Issuing Bank) an LC Request to the Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the third Business Day preceding the requested date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (or such later date and time as is acceptable to the Issuing Bank).

A request for an initial issuance of a Letter of Credit shall specify in form and detail reasonably satisfactory to the Issuing Bank:

(i) the proposed issuance date of the requested Letter of Credit (which shall be a Business Day);

(ii) the face amount thereof;

(iii) the expiry date thereof (which shall not be later than the close of business on the Letter of Credit Expiration Date);

(vi) whether the Letter of Credit is to be issued as a Standby Letter of Credit or a Commercial Letter of Credit;

(vii) the documents to be presented by such beneficiary in connection with any drawing thereunder;

(viii) the full text of any certificate to be presented by such beneficiary in connection with any drawing thereunder; and

(iii) the expiry date thereof (which shall not be later than the close of business on the Letter of Credit Expiration Date);

(iv) the nature of the proposed amendment, renewal or extension; and

(v) such other matters as the Issuing Bank may require.

If requested by the Issuing Bank, Borrower also shall submit a letter of credit application on the Issuing Bank’s standard form in connection with any request for a Letter of Credit. A Letter of Credit shall be issued, amended, renewed or extended only if (and, upon issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of each Letter of Credit, Borrower shall be deemed to represent and warrant that), after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, (i) the LC Exposure shall not exceed the LC Commitment, (ii) the total Revolving Exposures shall not exceed the total Revolving Commitments and (iii) the conditions set forth in Article IV in respect of such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension shall have been satisfied. Unless the Issuing Bank shall agree otherwise, no Letter of Credit shall be in an initial amount less than $100,000.

(c) Expiration Date . Each Letter of Credit shall expire at or prior to the close of business on the earlier of (x) the date which is one year after the date of the issuance of such Letter of Credit (or, in the case of any renewal or extension thereof, one year after such renewal or extension) and (y) the Letter of Credit Expiration Date; provided that this paragraph (c) shall not prevent any Issuing Bank from agreeing that a Letter of Credit will automatically be extended for one or more successive periods not to exceed one year each (and, in any case, not to extend beyond the Letter of Credit Expiration Date) unless each such Issuing Bank elects not to extend for any such additional period.

(d) Participations . By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment to a Letter of Credit increasing the amount thereof) and without any further action on the part of the Issuing Bank or the Lenders, the Issuing Bank hereby irrevocably grants to each Revolving Lender, and each Revolving Lender hereby acquires from the Issuing Bank, a participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Revolving Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Issuing Bank, such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of each LC Disbursement made by the Issuing Bank and not reimbursed by Borrower on the date due as provided in Section 2.18(e) , or of any reimbursement payment required to be refunded to Borrower for any reason. Each Revolving Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this paragraph in respect of Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or the occurrence and continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the Commitments or a Borrowing Base Deficiency and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever (so long as such payment shall not cause such Lender’s Revolving Exposure to exceed such Lender’s Revolving Commitment).

(e) Reimbursement . (i) If the Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement by paying to the Issuing Bank an amount equal to such LC Disbursement not later than 2:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Business Day immediately following the date that such LC Disbursement is made if Borrower shall have received notice of such LC Disbursement prior to 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on such date, or, if such notice has not been received by Borrower prior to such time on such date, then not later than 2:00 p.m., New York City time, on the second Business Day immediately following the day that Borrower receives such notice; provided that Borrower may, subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein,

request in accordance with Section 2.03 that such payment be financed with ABR Revolving Loans in an equivalent amount and, to the extent so financed, Borrower’s obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting ABR Revolving Loans.

(ii) If Borrower fails to make such payment when due, and if the amount is not financed pursuant to the proviso to Section 2.18(e)(i) , the Issuing Bank shall notify the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent shall notify each Revolving Lender of the applicable LC Disbursement, the payment then due from Borrower in respect thereof and such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage thereof. Each Revolving Lender shall pay by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 p.m., New York City time, on such date (or, if such Revolving Lender shall have received such notice later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on any day, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the immediately following Business Day), an amount equal to such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of the unreimbursed LC Disbursement in the same manner as provided in Section 2.02(c) with respect to Revolving Loans made by such Revolving Lender, and the Administrative Agent will promptly pay to the Issuing Bank the amounts so received by it from the Revolving Lenders; provided , that if the Issuing Bank is also a Revolving Lender, such Revolving Lender shall be deemed to have funded its Pro Rata Percentage automatically without further funding. The Administrative Agent will promptly pay to the Issuing Bank any amounts received by it from Borrower pursuant to the above paragraph prior to the time that any Revolving Lender makes any payment pursuant to the preceding sentence and any such amounts received by the Administrative Agent from Borrower thereafter will be promptly remitted by the Administrative Agent to the Revolving Lenders that shall have made such payments and to the Issuing Bank, as appropriate.

(iii) If any Revolving Lender shall not have made its Pro Rata Percentage of such LC Disbursement available to the Administrative Agent as provided above, each of Borrower and such Revolving Lender severally agrees to pay interest on such amount, for each day from and including the date such amount is required to be paid in accordance with the foregoing to but excluding the date such amount is paid, to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Bank at (i) in the case of Borrower, the Default Rate and (ii) in the case of such Lender, at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules or practices on interbank compensation.

(f) Obligations Absolute . The Reimbursement Obligation of Borrower as provided in Section 2.18(e) shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid and performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or this Agreement, or any term or provision therein; (ii) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit being proved to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; (iii) payment by the Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that fails to strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; (iv) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section 2.18 , constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, the obligations of Borrower hereunder; (v) the fact that a Default shall have occurred and be continuing; (vi) any material adverse change in the condition (financial or otherwise), results of operations, assets, liabilities (contingent or otherwise), material agreements, properties, solvency, business, management, prospects or value of any Company; or (vii) any other fact, circumstance or event whatsoever. None of the Agents, the Lenders, the Issuing Bank or any of their Affiliates shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of

Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of the Issuing Bank; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse the Issuing Bank from liability to Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential, special, punitive or other indirect damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements) suffered by Borrower that are caused by the Issuing Bank’s failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Issuing Bank (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction), the Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such determination. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit.

(g) Disbursement Procedures . The Issuing Bank shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit. The Issuing Bank shall promptly give written notice to the Administrative Agent and Borrower of such demand for payment and whether the Issuing Bank has made or will make an LC Disbursement thereunder; provided that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve Borrower of its Reimbursement Obligation to the Issuing Bank and the Revolving Lenders with respect to any such LC Disbursement (other than with respect to the timing of such Reimbursement Obligation set forth in Section 2.18(e) ).

(h) Interim Interest . If the Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement, then, unless Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement in full on the date such LC Disbursement is made, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest payable on demand, for each day from and including the date such LC Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that Borrower reimburses such LC Disbursement, at the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin for a period of three calendar days from the date of such LC Disbursement, and at the Default Rate thereafter. Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph shall be for the account of the Issuing Bank, except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Revolving Lender pursuant to Section 2.18(e) to reimburse the Issuing Bank shall be for the account of such Lender to the extent of such payment.

(i) Cash Collateralization . If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, on the Business Day that Borrower receives notice from the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders (or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated, Revolving Lenders with LC Exposure representing greater than 50% of the total LC Exposure) demanding the deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph, Borrower shall deposit in the LC Sub-Account, in the name of the Collateral Agent and for the benefit of the Revolving Lenders, an amount in cash equal to 105% of the LC Exposure as of such date plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon; provided that the obligation to deposit such cash collateral shall become effective immediately, and such deposit shall become immediately due and payable, without demand or other notice of any kind, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default with respect to Borrower described in paragraph (g) or (h) of Section 8.01 . Funds in the LC Sub-Account shall be applied by the Collateral Agent to reimburse the Issuing Bank for LC Disbursements for which it has not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of outstanding Reimbursement Obligations or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated (but subject to the consent of Revolving Lenders with LC Exposure representing greater than 50% of the total LC Exposure), be applied to satisfy other Obligations of Borrower in accordance with Article IX . If

Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default, such amount plus any accrued interest or realized profits with respect to such amounts (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to Borrower within five Business Days after all Events of Default have been cured or waived.

(j) Additional Issuing Banks . Borrower may, at any time and from time to time, designate one or more additional Revolving Lenders to act as an issuing bank under the terms of this Agreement, with the consent of the Administrative Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), the Issuing Bank (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) and such Revolving Lender(s). Any Revolving Lender designated as an issuing bank pursuant to this paragraph (j) shall be deemed (in addition to being a Revolving Lender) to be the Issuing Bank with respect to Letters of Credit issued or to be issued by such Revolving Lender, and all references herein and in the other Loan Documents to the term “Issuing Bank” shall, with respect to such Letters of Credit, be deemed to refer to such Revolving Lender in its capacity as Issuing Bank, as the context shall require.

(k) Resignation or Removal of the Issuing Bank . The Issuing Bank may resign as Issuing Bank hereunder at any time upon at least 30 days’ prior written notice to the Lenders, the Administrative Agent and Borrower. The Issuing Bank may be replaced at any time by written agreement among Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the replaced Issuing Bank and the successor Issuing Bank. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such replacement of the Issuing Bank or any such additional Issuing Bank. At the time any such resignation or replacement shall become effective, Borrower shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.05(c) . From and after the effective date of any such resignation or replacement or addition, as applicable, (i) the successor or additional Issuing Bank shall have all the rights and obligations of the Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued by it thereafter and (ii) references herein and in the other Loan Documents to the term “Issuing Bank” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or such addition or to any previous Issuing Bank, or to such successor or such addition and all previous Issuing Banks, as the context shall require. After the resignation or replacement of an Issuing Bank hereunder, the replaced Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such resignation or replacement, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit. If at any time there is more than one Issuing Bank hereunder, Borrower may, in its discretion, select which Issuing Bank is to issue any particular Letter of Credit.

(l) Other . The Issuing Bank shall be under no obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if:

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

(ii) the issuance of such Letter of Credit would violate one or more policies of general application of the Issuing Bank.

The Issuing Bank shall be under no obligation to amend any Letter of Credit if (A) the Issuing Bank would have no obligation at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its amended form under the terms hereof, or (B) the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit does not accept the proposed amendment to such Letter of Credit.

Such financial statements on a Pro Forma Basis (A) have been prepared in good faith by the Loan Parties, based upon (i) the assumptions stated therein (which assumptions are believed by the Loan Parties on the date hereof and on the Closing Date to be reasonable), (ii) accounting principles consistent with the historical audited financial statements delivered pursuant to this Section 3.04(b) and (iii) the best information reasonably available to, or in the possession or control of, the Loan Parties as of the date of delivery thereof, (B) reflect fairly all adjustments required to be made to give effect to the Transactions, (C) have been prepared in accordance with GAAP (subject to normal year-end audit adjustments and the absence of footnotes) consistently applied throughout the applicable period covered, respectively, thereby, and (D) present fairly the consolidated financial position and results of operations of Borrower as of such date and for such periods, on a Pro Forma Basis assuming that the Transactions had occurred at such dates.

(d) Since December 31, 2009, there has been no event, change, circumstance or occurrence that has had or could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 3.05 Properties . (a) Each Company has good title to, or valid leasehold interests in, all its property material to its business, free and clear of all Liens and irregularities, deficiencies and defects in title except for Permitted Liens and minor irregularities, deficiencies and defects in title that do not, and could not reasonably be expected to, interfere in any material respect with its ability to conduct its business as currently conducted or to utilize such property for its intended purpose. The property of the Companies, taken as a whole, (i) is in good operating order, condition and repair (ordinary wear and tear excepted), and (ii) constitutes all the property which is required for the business and operations of the Companies as presently conducted.

(b) Schedule 3.05(b) contains a true and complete list of each ownership and leasehold interest in Real Property (including all modifications, amendments and supplements thereto with respect to leased Real Property) (i) owned by any Company as of the Closing Date and describes the use and type of interest therein held by such Company and (ii) leased, subleased or otherwise occupied or utilized by any Company, as lessee, sublessee, franchisee or licensee, as of the Closing Date and describes the use and type of interest therein held by such Company; and accurately and comprehensively designates which, among such properties, constitute Key Locations as of the Closing Date.

(c) No Company has received any notice of, nor has any knowledge of, the occurrence or pendency or contemplation of any Casualty Event affecting all or any portion of any Key Location where such Casualty Event could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. No Mortgage encumbers improved Real Property that is located in an area that has been identified by the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development as an area having special flood hazards within the meaning of the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968 unless flood insurance available under such Act has been obtained in accordance with Section 5.04 .

(d) Each Company owns or has rights to use all of its property and all rights with respect to any of the foregoing used in, necessary for or material to each Company’s business as currently conducted. The use by each Company of its property and all such rights with respect to the foregoing do not infringe on the rights of any person, other than any infringement that could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. No claim has been made and remains outstanding that any Company’s use of any of its property does or may violate the rights of any third party that could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. Each Key Location is zoned to permit the uses for which such Key Location is currently being used. The present uses of each Key Location and the current operations of each Company’s business do not violate in any material respect any provision of any applicable building codes, subdivision regulations, fire regulations, health regulations or building and zoning bylaws.

Each Company owns or is licensed to use, free and clear of all Liens (other than Permitted Liens), all patents and patent applications; trademarks, trade names, service marks, copyrights, domain names and applications for registration thereof; and technology, trade secrets, proprietary information, inventions, know-how and processes necessary for the conduct of its business as currently conducted (the “ Intellectual Property ”), except for those the failure to own or license which could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. No material claim has been asserted and is pending by any person challenging or questioning the use of any such Intellectual Property or the validity or effectiveness of any such Intellectual Property, nor does any Company know of any valid basis for any such claim. The use of such Intellectual Property by each Company does not infringe the rights of any person, except for such claims and infringements which could not reasonably be

expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. Except pursuant to licenses and other user agreements entered into by each Company in the ordinary course of business which, in the case of licenses and user agreements in existence on the date hereof, are listed in Schedule 3.06(a) , no Company has done anything to authorize or enable any other person to use any such Intellectual Property, which use, individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(d) No Impairment . Neither the execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, nor the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, will alter, impair or otherwise affect or require the consent of any other person in respect of any right of any Company in any Intellectual Property, except to the extent that such alteration, impairment, effect or consent could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

(e) No Agreement or Order Materially Affecting Intellectual Property . Except as set forth on Schedule 3.06(e) , no Company is subject to any settlement, covenant not to sue or other agreement, or any outstanding Order, which may materially affect the validity or enforceability or restrict in any manner such Company’s use, licensing or transfer of any of the Intellectual Property.

All Equity Interests of each Company are duly and validly issued and are fully paid and non-assessable, and all Equity Interests of the Subsidiaries are owned by Borrower directly or indirectly through Wholly Owned Subsidiaries. Each Loan Party is the record and beneficial owner of, and has good and marketable title to, the Equity Interests pledged by it under the Security Documents, free of any and all Liens, rights or claims of other

persons, except the security interest created by the Security Documents and any Permitted Liens that arise by operation of applicable Legal Requirements and are not voluntarily granted, and, as of the Closing Date, there are no outstanding warrants, options or other rights to purchase, or shareholder, voting trust or similar agreements outstanding with respect to, or property that is convertible into, or that requires the issuance or sale of, any such Equity Interests, except as may be set forth on Schedule 3.07(a).

(b) No consent of any person including any general or limited partner, any other member or manager of a limited liability company, any shareholder or any other trust beneficiary is necessary or reasonably desirable (from the perspective of a secured party) in connection with the creation, perfection or first priority status (or the maintenance thereof) of the security interest of the Collateral Agent in any Equity Interests pledged to the Collateral Agent under the Security Documents or the exercise by the Collateral Agent or any Lender of the voting or other rights provided for in the Security Documents or the exercise of remedies in respect of such Equity Interests.

(b) No Company is in default in any manner under any provision of any Material Agreement evidencing Indebtedness, or any other agreement or instrument to which it is a party or by which it or any of its property is or may be bound or subject, where such default could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, and no condition exists which, with the giving of notice or the lapse of time or both could reasonably be expected to constitute such a default.

(c) Schedule 3.09(c) accurately and completely lists all Material Agreements (other than leases of Real Property set forth on Schedule 3.05(b) ) to which any Company is a party which are in effect on the Closing Date in connection with the operation of the business conducted thereby and Borrower has delivered to the Administrative Agent (or made available to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders for review on or before the date hereof) complete and correct copies of all such Material Agreements, including any amendments, supplements or modifications with respect thereto, and all such Material Agreements are in full force and effect.

statement, exhibit or schedule was based upon or constitutes a forecast or projection, each Loan Party represents and warrants only that on the date of delivery thereof such forecast or projection was prepared in good faith based upon (i) the assumptions stated therein (which assumptions are believed by the Loan Parties on the date delivered to the Administrative Agent or a Lender to be reasonable), (ii) accounting principles consistent with the historical audited financial statements of Borrower, and (iii) the best information reasonably available to, or in the possession or control of, the Loan Parties as of the date of delivery thereof to the Administrative Agent or a Lender.

Section 3.15 Labor Matters .

The hours worked by and payments made to employees of any Company have not been in violation of the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938, as amended, or any other applicable Legal Requirement dealing with such matters in any manner that has resulted in, or could reasonably be expected to result in, a Material Adverse Effect. All payments due from any Company, or for which any claim may be made against any Company, on account of wages and employee health and welfare insurance and other benefits, have been paid or accrued as a liability on the books of such Company except to the extent that the failure to do so has not resulted in, and could not reasonably be expected to result in, a Material Adverse Effect. The consummation of the Transactions will not give rise to any right of termination or right of renegotiation on the part of any union under any collective bargaining agreement to which any Company is bound.

Each Employee Benefit Plan complies in all material respects, and is operated and maintained in compliance in all material respects, with all applicable Legal Requirements, including all material applicable provisions of ERISA and the Code and the regulations and published interpretations thereunder.

Using actuarial assumptions and computation methods consistent with subpart I of subtitle E of Title IV of ERISA, the aggregate liabilities of any

Company or any of its ERISA Affiliates to all Multiemployer Plans in the event of a complete withdrawal therefrom, as of the close of the most recent fiscal year of each such Multiemployer Plan, have not resulted in, and could not reasonably be expected to result in, a Material Adverse Effect.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is agreed that the occurrence of any one or more of the following shall not alter or impair the liability of the Subsidiary Guarantors hereunder which shall remain absolute, irrevocable and unconditional under any and all circumstances as described above:

(i) at any time or from time to time, without notice to the Subsidiary Guarantors, the time for any performance of or compliance with any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be extended, or such performance or compliance shall be waived;

(ii) any of the acts mentioned in any of the provisions of this Agreement or the Notes, if any, or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein shall be done or omitted;

(iii) the maturity of any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be accelerated, or any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be amended in any respect, or any right under the Loan Documents or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein shall be amended or waived in any respect or any other guarantee of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any security therefor shall be released or exchanged in whole or in part or otherwise dealt with;

(iv) any Lien or security interest granted to, or in favor of, any Secured Party as security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall fail to be valid, perfected or to have the priority required under the Loan Documents; or

(v) the release of any other Subsidiary Guarantor pursuant to Section 7.09 .

The Subsidiary Guarantors hereby expressly waive diligence, presentment, demand of payment, protest and all notices whatsoever, and any requirement that any Secured Party exhaust any right, power or remedy or proceed against Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor under this Agreement or the Notes, if any, or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein, or against any other person under any other guarantee of, or security for, any of the Guaranteed Obligations. The Subsidiary Guarantors waive any and all notice of the creation, renewal, extension, waiver, termination or accrual of any of the Guaranteed Obligations and notice of or proof of reliance by any Secured Party upon this Guarantee or acceptance of this Guarantee, and the Guaranteed Obligations, and any of them, shall conclusively be deemed to have been created, contracted or incurred in reliance upon this Guarantee, and all dealings between Borrower and the Secured Parties shall likewise be conclusively presumed to have been had or consummated in reliance upon this Guarantee. This Guarantee shall be construed as a continuing, absolute, irrevocable and unconditional guarantee of payment and performance without regard to any right of offset with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations at any time or from time to time held by the Secured Parties, and the obligations and liabilities of the Subsidiary Guarantors hereunder shall not be conditioned or contingent upon the pursuit by the Secured Parties or any other person at any time of any right or remedy against Borrower or against any other person which may be or become liable in respect of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations or against any collateral security or guarantee therefor or right of offset with respect thereto. This Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect and be binding in accordance with and to the extent of its terms upon the Subsidiary Guarantors and their respective successors and assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of the Secured Parties, and their respective successors and assigns, notwithstanding that from time to time during the term of this Agreement there may be no Guaranteed Obligations outstanding.

118

Section 7.03 Reinstatement . The obligations of the Subsidiary Guarantors under this Article VII shall be automatically reinstated if and to the extent that for any reason any payment by or on behalf of Borrower or other Loan Party in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must be otherwise restored by any holder of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, whether as a result of any proceedings in bankruptcy or reorganization or otherwise.

Section 7.04 Subrogation; Subordination . Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby agrees that until the indefeasible payment and satisfaction in full in cash of all Guaranteed Obligations and the expiration and termination of the Commitments of the Lenders under this Agreement it shall waive any claim and shall not exercise any right or remedy, direct or indirect, arising by reason of any performance by it of its guarantee in Section 7.01 , whether by subrogation or otherwise, against Borrower or any other Subsidiary Guarantor of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations. Any Indebtedness of any Loan Party permitted pursuant to Section 6.04(f) shall be subordinated to such Loan Party’s Obligations in the manner set forth in the Intercompany Note evidencing such Indebtedness.

Section 7.05 Remedies . The Subsidiary Guarantors jointly and severally agree that, as between the Subsidiary Guarantors and the Lenders, the obligations of Borrower under this Agreement and other Loan Documents may be declared to be forthwith due and payable as provided in Article VIII (and shall be deemed to have become automatically due and payable in the circumstances provided in Article VIII ) for purposes of Section 7.01 , notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such declaration (or such obligations from becoming automatically due and payable) as against Borrower (but not such Subsidiary Guarantor) and that, in the event of such declaration (or such obligations being deemed to have become automatically due and payable), such obligations (whether or not due and payable by Borrower) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Subsidiary Guarantors for purposes of Section 7.01 .

Section 7.06 Instrument for the Payment of Money . Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby acknowledges that the guarantee in this Article VII constitutes an instrument for the payment of money, and consents and agrees that any Lender or Agent, at its sole option, in the event of a dispute by such Subsidiary Guarantor in the payment of any moneys due hereunder, shall have the right to bring a motion-action under New York CPLR Section 3213.

Section 7.07 Continuing Guarantee . The guarantee in this Article VII is a continuing guarantee of payment and performance, and shall apply to all Guaranteed Obligations whenever arising.

Section 7.08 General Limitation on Guarantee Obligations . In any action or proceeding involving any state corporate limited partnership or limited liability company law, or any applicable state, federal or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other Legal Requirement affecting the rights of creditors generally, if the obligations of any Subsidiary Guarantor under Section 7.01 would otherwise be held or determined to be void, voidable, invalid or unenforceable, or subordinated to the claims of any other creditors, on account of the amount of its liability under Section 7.01 , then, notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary, the amount of such liability shall, without any further action by such Subsidiary Guarantor, any Loan Party or any other person, be automatically limited and reduced to the highest amount that is valid and enforceable, not void or voidable and not subordinated to the claims of other creditors as determined in such action or proceeding.

Section 7.09 Release of Guarantors . If, in compliance with the terms and provisions of the Loan Documents, (i) subsequent to the Closing Date, a Subsidiary Guarantor is designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary by the Board of Directors of Borrower in accordance with Section 6.14, (ii) all of the Equity Interests or all or substantially all of the property of any Subsidiary Guarantor are sold or

119

otherwise transferred (a “ Transferred Guarantor ”) to a person or persons (other than any Company or any Affiliate thereof), such Unrestricted Subsidiary shall, upon its being so designated, and such Transferred Guarantor shall, upon the consummation of such sale or transfer, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (including under Section 11.03) and its obligations to pledge and grant any Collateral owned by it pursuant to any Security Document and, in the case of the sale of all of the Equity Interests of the Unrestricted Subsidiary or Transferred Guarantor, the pledge of such Equity Interests to the Collateral Agent pursuant to the Security Documents shall be released, and so long as Borrower shall have previously provided the Collateral Agent and the Administrative Agent such certifications or documents as the Collateral Agent and/or the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request, the Collateral Agent shall take such actions as are necessary to effect each release described in this Section 7.09 in accordance with the relevant provisions of the Security Documents.

Section 7.10 Right of Contribution . (a) The Loan Parties hereby agree as among themselves that, if any Loan Party shall make an Excess Payment (as defined below), such Loan Party shall have a right of contribution from each other Loan Party in an amount equal to such other Loan Party’s Contribution Share (as defined below) of such Excess Payment. The payment obligations of any Loan Party under this Section 7.10 shall be subordinate and subject in right of payment to the Obligations until such time as the Obligations have been paid in full in cash and all Commitments have terminated or expired, and none of the Loan Parties shall exercise any right or remedy under this Section 7.10 against any other Loan Party until such time as all Obligations have been performed and paid in full in cash and all Commitments have been terminated. For purposes of this Section 7.10 , (a) “ Excess Payment ” shall mean the amount paid by any Loan Party in excess of its Pro Rata Share of any Obligations; (b) “ Pro Rata Share ” shall mean, for any Loan Party in respect of any payment of the Obligations, the ratio (expressed as a percentage) as of the date of such payment of Obligations of (i) the amount by which the aggregate present fair salable value of all of its assets and properties exceeds the amount of all debts and liabilities of such Loan Party (including contingent, subordinated, un-matured, and un-liquidated liabilities, but excluding the Obligations of such Loan Party) to (ii) the amount by which the aggregate present fair salable value of its assets and other properties of all Loan Parties exceeds the amount of all of the debts and liabilities (including contingent, subordinated, un-matured, and un-liquidated liabilities, but excluding the Obligations of all Loan Parties) of the Loan Parties; and (c) “ Contribution Share ” shall mean, for any Loan Party in respect of any Excess Payment made by any other Loan Party, the ratio (expressed as a percentage) as of the date of such Excess Payment of (i) the amount by which the aggregate present fair salable value of all of its assets and properties exceeds the amount of all debts and liabilities of such Loan Party (including contingent, subordinated, un-matured, and un-liquidated liabilities, but excluding the Obligations of such Loan Party) to (ii) the amount by which the aggregate present fair salable value of all assets and other properties of the Loan Parties other than the maker of such Excess Payment exceeds the amount of all of the debts and liabilities (including contingent, subordinated, un-matured, and un-liquidated liabilities, but excluding the Obligations of the Loan Parties) of the Loan Parties other than the maker of such Excess Payment. Nothing in this Section 7.10 shall require any Loan Party to pay its Contribution Share of any Excess Payment in the absence of a demand therefor by the Loan Party that has made the Excess Payment. Without limiting the foregoing in any manner, it is the intent of the parties hereto that as of any date of determination, no Contribution Amount of any Loan Party shall be greater than the maximum amount of the claim which could then be recovered from such Loan Party under this Section 7.10 without rendering such claim voidable or avoidable under Section 548 of Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code or under any applicable state Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act, Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act or similar statute or common law.

(b) This Section 7.10 is intended only to define the relative rights of the Loan Parties and nothing set forth in this Section 7.10 is intended to or shall impair the obligations of the Loan Parties, jointly and severally, to pay any amounts and perform any obligations as and when the same shall become due and payable or required to be performed in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or any other

120

Loan Document. Nothing contained in this Section 7.10 shall limit the liability of Borrower to pay the Loans and other Credit Extensions made to Borrower and accrued interest, Fees and expenses with respect thereto for which Borrower shall be primarily liable.

(c) The parties hereto acknowledge that the rights of contribution and indemnification hereunder shall constitute assets of the Loan Parties to which such contribution and indemnification is owing.

(d) The rights of any indemnified Loan Party against the other Loan Parties under this Section 7.10 shall be exercisable upon, but shall not be exercisable prior to, the full and indefeasible payment of the Obligations and termination or expiration of the Commitments under the Loan Documents.

then, and in every such event (other than an event with respect to Borrower described in paragraph (g) or (h) above), and at any time thereafter during the continuance of such event, the Administrative Agent may, and at the request of the Required Lenders shall, by notice to Borrower, take either or both of the following actions, at the same or different times: (i) terminate forthwith the Commitments and (ii) declare the Loans and Reimbursement Obligations then outstanding to be forthwith due and payable in whole or in part, whereupon the principal of the Loans and Reimbursement Obligations so declared to be due and payable, together with accrued interest thereon and any unpaid accrued Fees and all other liabilities of the Loan Parties accrued hereunder and under any other Loan Document, shall become forthwith due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or any other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Loan Parties, anything contained herein or in any other Loan Document or otherwise to the contrary notwithstanding; and in any event with respect to Borrower described in paragraph (g) or (h) above, the Commitments shall automatically terminate and the principal of the Loans and Reimbursement Obligations then outstanding, together with accrued interest thereon and any unpaid accrued Fees and all other liabilities of the Loan Parties accrued hereunder and under any other Loan Document, shall automatically become due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or any other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Loan Parties, anything contained herein or in any other Loan Document or otherwise to the contrary notwithstanding.

The provisions of the preceding sentence are intended merely to bind the Lenders, the Issuing Bank and the other Secured Parties to a decision that may be made at the election of the Required Lenders, and such provisions are not intended to benefit Borrower and the other Loan Parties and do not give Borrower and/or any of the Loan Parties the right to require the Lenders to rescind or annul any acceleration hereunder, even if the conditions set forth herein are met.

ARTICLE IX

Section 9.01 Collateral Account . (a) The Collateral Agent is hereby authorized to establish and maintain at its office (or, at the Collateral Agent’s discretion, at the office of its designee from time to time) at 520 Madison Avenue, New York, New York 10022, in the name of the Collateral Agent and pursuant to a Control Agreement, a restricted deposit account designated “BioScrip Collateral Account” (or such other substantially similar designation as shall be determined by the Collateral Agent in its discretion from time to time). Each Loan Party shall deposit into the Collateral Account from time to time any cash that such Loan Party is required to pledge as additional collateral security hereunder pursuant to the Loan Documents.

(b) The balance from time to time in the Collateral Account shall constitute part of the Collateral and shall not constitute payment of the Obligations until applied as hereinafter provided. So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or will result therefrom, the Collateral Agent shall within two Business Days of receiving a request of the applicable Loan Party for release of cash proceeds with respect to the LC Sub-Account, remit such Net Cash Proceeds on deposit in the LC Sub-Account to or upon the order of such Loan Party (x) at such time as all Letters of Credit shall have been terminated and all of the liabilities in respect of the Letters of Credit have been paid in full or (y) otherwise in accordance with Section 2.18(i) . At any time following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Collateral Agent may (and, if instructed by the Required Lenders as specified herein, shall) in its (or their) discretion apply or cause to be applied (subject to collection) the balance from time to time outstanding to the credit of the Collateral Account to the payment of the Obligations in the manner specified in Section 9.02 subject, however, in the case of amounts deposited in the LC Sub-Account, to the provisions of Section 2.18(i) . The Loan Parties shall have no right to withdraw, transfer or otherwise receive any funds deposited in the Collateral Account except to the extent specifically provided herein.

(c) Amounts on deposit in the Collateral Account shall be invested and reinvested from time to time in Cash Equivalents as the applicable Loan Party (or, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Collateral Agent) shall determine by written instruction to the Collateral Agent, or if no such instructions are given, then as the Collateral Agent, in its sole discretion, shall determine, which Cash Equivalents shall be held in the name and be under the control of the Collateral Agent (or any sub-agent); provided that at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Collateral Agent may (and, if instructed by the Required Lenders

124

as specified herein, shall) in its (or their) discretion at any time and from time to time elect to liquidate any such Cash Equivalents and to apply or cause to be applied the proceeds thereof to the payment of the Obligations in the manner specified in Section 9.02 subject, however, in the case of amounts deposited in the LC Sub-Account, to the provisions of Section 2.18(i) .

(d) Amounts deposited into the Collateral Account as cover for liabilities in respect of Letters of Credit under any provision of this Agreement requiring such cover shall be held by the Administrative Agent in a separate sub-account designated as the “LC Sub-Account” (the “ LC Sub-Account ”) and, subject to Section 2.18(i) , all amounts held in the LC Sub-Account shall constitute collateral security to be applied in accordance with Section 2.18(i) .

Section 9.02 Application of Proceeds . The proceeds received by the Collateral Agent in respect of any sale of, collection from or other realization upon all or any part of the Collateral pursuant to the exercise by the Collateral Agent of its remedies shall be applied, in full or in part, together with any other sums then held by the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, promptly by the Collateral Agent as follows:

(a) First , to the payment of all reasonable costs and expenses, fees, commissions and taxes of such sale, collection or other realization including compensation to the Collateral Agent and its agents and counsel, and all expenses, liabilities and advances made or incurred by the Collateral Agent in connection therewith and all amounts for which the Collateral Agent is entitled to indemnification pursuant to the provisions of any Loan Document, together with interest on each such amount at the highest rate then in effect under this Agreement from and after the date such amount is due, owing or unpaid until paid in full;

(b) Second , to the payment of all other reasonable costs and expenses of such sale, collection or other realization including compensation to the other Secured Parties and their agents and counsel and all costs, liabilities and advances made or incurred by the other Secured Parties in connection therewith, together with interest on each such amount at the highest rate then in effect under this Agreement from and after the date such amount is due, owing or unpaid until paid in full;

(c) Third , without duplication of amounts applied pursuant to clauses (a) and (b) above, to the indefeasible payment in full in cash, pro rata, of interest and other amounts constituting Obligations (other than principal, Reimbursement Obligations and Hedging Obligations) in each case equally and ratably in accordance with the respective amounts thereof then due and owing;

(d) Fourth , to the indefeasible payment in full in cash, pro rata , of the principal amount of the Obligations (including Reimbursement Obligations);

(e) Fifth, to Hedging Obligations to the extent secured by Liens on the Collateral and constituting Obligations of the type described in clause (c) of the definition of Obligations; and

(f) Sixth , the balance, if any, to the person lawfully entitled thereto (including the applicable Loan Party or its successors or assigns) or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct.

In the event that any such proceeds are insufficient to pay in full the items described in clauses (a) through (f) of this Section 9.02 , the Loan Parties shall remain liable, jointly and severally, for any deficiency.

125

ARTICLE X
THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND THE COLLATERAL AGENT

Section 10.01 Appointment . (a) Each Lender and the Issuing Bank hereby irrevocably designates and appoints each of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent as an agent of such Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Each Lender irrevocably authorizes each Agent, in such capacity, through its agents or employees, to take such actions on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are delegated to such Agent by the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Article X are solely for the benefit of the Agents, the Lenders and the Issuing Bank, and no Loan Party shall have rights as a third party beneficiary of any such provisions.

(b) Each Lender irrevocably appoints each other Lender as its agent and bailee for the purpose of perfecting Liens (whether pursuant to Section 8-301(a)(2) of the UCC or otherwise), for the benefit of the Secured Parties, in assets which, in accordance with the UCC or any other applicable Legal Requirement, a security interest can be perfected by possession or control. Should any Lender (other than the Collateral Agent) obtain possession or control of any such Collateral, such Lender shall notify the Collateral Agent thereof, and, promptly following the Collateral Agent’s request therefor, shall deliver such Collateral to the Collateral Agent or otherwise deal with such Collateral in accordance with the Collateral Agent’s instructions.

Section 10.02 Agent in Its Individual Capacity . Each person serving as an 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 an Agent, and such person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for, and generally engage in any kind of business with, any Company or Affiliate thereof as if it were not an Agent hereunder and without duty to account therefor to the Lenders or the Issuing Bank.

Section 10.03 Exculpatory Provisions . No Agent shall have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth in the Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) no Agent shall be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing, (b) no Agent shall have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated by the Loan Documents that such Agent is required to exercise in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 11.02 ); provided that no Agent shall be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose such Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable Legal Requirements, and (c) except as expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, no Agent shall have any duty to disclose or shall be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to any Company that is communicated to or obtained by the person serving as such Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. No Agent shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by it 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 any Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Section 11.02 ) or in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as found by a final and nonappealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. No Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge of any Default unless and until written notice thereof is given to such Agent by Borrower, a Lender, or the Issuing Bank, and no Agent 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 any Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered thereunder or in connection therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or

126

conditions set forth in any Loan Document or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of any Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere in any Loan Document. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the use of the term “agent” in this Agreement with reference to the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties. Each party to this Agreement acknowledges and agrees that the Administrative Agent may from time to time use one or more outside service providers for the tracking of all UCC financing statements (and/or other collateral related filings and registrations from time to time) required to be filed or recorded pursuant to the Loan Documents and the notification to the Administrative Agent, of, among other things, the upcoming lapse or expiration thereof, and that each of such service providers will be deemed to be acting at the request and on behalf of Borrower and the other Loan Parties. No Agent shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by any such service provider.

Section 10.04 Reliance by Agent . Each Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent, or otherwise authenticated by a proper person. Each Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally and believed by it to be made by a proper person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, or the issuance of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or the Issuing Bank, each Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or the Issuing Bank unless each Agent shall have received written notice to the contrary from such Lender or the Issuing Bank prior to the making of such Loan or the issuance of such Letter of Credit. Each Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for Borrower), independent accountants and other advisors 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 advisors.

Section 10.05 Delegation of Duties . Each Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through, or delegate any and all such rights and powers to, any one or more sub-agents appointed by such Agent. Each 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 Affiliates. The exculpatory provisions of the preceding paragraphs shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Affiliates of each 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 Agent.

Section 10.06 Successor Agent . Each Agent may resign as such at any time upon at least 30 days’ prior notice to the Lenders, the Issuing Bank and Borrower. Upon any such resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with Borrower, to appoint a successor Agent from among the Lenders. If no successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank, appoint a successor Agent, which successor shall be a commercial banking institution organized under the laws of the United States (or any State thereof) or a United States branch or agency of a commercial banking institution, in each case, having combined capital and surplus of at least $500,000,000; provided that if such retiring Agent is unable to find a commercial banking institution that is willing to accept such appointment and which meets the qualifications set forth above, the retiring Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective, and the Lenders shall assume and perform all of the duties of the Agent under the Loan Documents until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Agent.

127

Upon the acceptance of its appointment as an Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent, and the retiring (or retired) Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Loan Documents. The fees payable by Borrower to a successor Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between Borrower and such successor. After an Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Article X , Section 11.03 and Sections 11.08 to 11.10 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Affiliates in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while it was acting as Agent.

Section 10.07 Non-Reliance on Agent and Other Lenders . Each Lender and the Issuing Bank acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender or any of their respective Affiliates 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 further represents and warrants that it has reviewed the Confidential Information Memorandum and each other document made available to it on the Platform in connection with this Agreement and has acknowledged and accepted the terms and conditions applicable to the recipients thereof (including any such terms and conditions set forth, or otherwise maintained, on the Platform with respect thereto). Each Lender and the Issuing Bank also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender or any of their respective Affiliates 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 related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

Section 10.08 Name Agents . The parties hereto acknowledge that the Syndication Agent, the Co-Documentation Agents and Collateral Agent hold their titles in name only, and that their titles confer no additional rights or obligations relative to those conferred on any Lender or the Issuing Bank hereunder.

Section 10.09 Indemnification . The Lenders severally agree to indemnify each Agent in its capacity as such and each of its Related Persons (to the extent not reimbursed by Borrower or the Subsidiary Guarantors and without limiting the obligation of Borrower or the Subsidiary Guarantors to do so), ratably according to their respective outstanding Loans and Commitments in effect on the date on which indemnification is sought under this Section 10.09 (or, if indemnification is sought after the date upon which all Commitments shall have terminated and the Loans and Reimbursement Obligations shall have been paid in full, ratably in accordance with such outstanding Loans and Commitments as in effect immediately prior to such date), from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, fines, penalties, actions, claims, suits, litigations, investigations, inquiries or proceedings, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever that may at any time (whether before or after the payment of the Loans and Reimbursement Obligations) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Agent or Related Person in any way relating to or arising out of, the Commitments, this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein, the Transactions or any of the other transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by such Agent or Related Person under or in connection with any of the foregoing ( IN ALL CASES, WHETHER OR NOT CAUSED OR ARISING, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, OUT OF THE COMPARATIVE, CONTRIBUTORY OR SOLE NEGLIGENCE OF ANY AGENT OR RELATED PERSON) ; provided that no Lender shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, fines, penalties, actions, claims, suits, litigations, inquiries or proceedings, costs, expenses or disbursements that are found by a final and nonappealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have directly resulted solely from such Agent’s or Related Person’s, as the case may be, gross negligence or willful misconduct. The agreements in this Section 10.09 shall survive the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

Notices delivered through electronic communications to the extent provided in Section 11.01(b) below, shall be effective as provided in Section 11.01(b) .

(b) Electronic Communications . Notices and other communications to the Lenders and the Issuing Bank hereunder may (subject to Section 11.01(d) ) be delivered or furnished by electronic communication (including e-mail and Internet or intranet websites) pursuant to procedures approved by the Administrative Agent; provided that the foregoing shall not apply to notices to any Lender or the Issuing Bank pursuant to Article II if such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as applicable, has notified the Administrative Agent (in a manner set forth in Section 11.01(a) ) that it is incapable of receiving notices under such Article by electronic communication. The Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or Borrower may, in their respective sole discretion, agree to accept notices and other communications to it hereunder by electronic communications pursuant to procedures, respectively, approved by it (including as set forth in Section 11.01(d) ); provided that approval of such procedures may be limited to particular notices or communications.

Unless the Administrative Agent otherwise prescribes, (i) notices and other communications sent to an e-mail address shall be deemed received upon the sender’s receipt of an acknowledgement from the intended recipient (including by the “return receipt requested” function, as available, return e-mail or other written acknowledgement); provided that if such notice or other communication is not sent during the normal business hours of the recipient, such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been sent at the opening of business on the next business day for the recipient, and (ii) notices or communications posted to an Internet or intranet website shall be deemed received upon the deemed receipt by the intended recipient at its e-mail address as described in the foregoing clause (i) of notification that such notice or communication is available and identifying the website address therefor.

(c) Change of Address, etc . Any party hereto may change its address, facsimile number or e-mail address for notices and other communications hereunder by notice to the other parties hereto.

(d) Posting . Each Loan Party hereby agrees that it will provide to the Administrative Agent all information, documents and other materials that it is obligated to furnish to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Agreement and any other Loan Document, including all notices, requests, financial

130

statements, financial and other reports, certificates and other information materials, but excluding any such communication that (i) relates to a request for a new, or a conversion of an existing, Borrowing or other extension of credit (including any election of an interest rate or interest period relating thereto), (ii) relates to the payment of any principal or other amount due under this Agreement prior to the scheduled date therefor, (iii) provides notice of any Default under this Agreement or (iv) is required to be delivered to satisfy any condition precedent to the effectiveness of this Agreement and/or any borrowing or other extension of credit hereunder (all such non-excluded communications, collectively, the “ Communications ”), by transmitting the Communications in an electronic/soft medium in a format reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent at such e-mail address(es) provided to Borrower by the Administrative Agent from time to time or in such other form, including hard copy delivery thereof, as the Administrative Agent shall require. In addition, each Loan Party agrees to continue to provide the Communications to the Administrative Agent in the manner specified in this Agreement or any other Loan Document or in such other form, including hard copy delivery thereof, as the Administrative Agent shall require. Nothing in this Section 11.01 shall prejudice the right of the Agents, any Lender, the Issuing Bank or any Loan Party to give any notice or other communication pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document in any other manner specified in this Agreement or any other Loan Document or as any such Agent shall reasonably require.

To the extent consented to by the Administrative Agent in writing from time to time, the Administrative Agent agrees that receipt of the Communications by the Administrative Agent at its e-mail address(es) set forth above shall constitute effective delivery of the Communications to the Administrative Agent for purposes of the Loan Documents; provided that Borrower shall also deliver to the Administrative Agent an executed original of each Compliance Certificate required to be delivered hereunder.

Each Loan Party further agrees that the Administrative Agent may make the Communications available to the other Agents, the Lenders or the Issuing Bank by posting the Communications on IntraLinks, SyndTrak or a substantially similar electronic transmission system (the “ Platform ”). The Platform is provided “as is” and “as available.” The Agents do not warrant the accuracy or completeness of the Communications, or the adequacy of the Platform and expressly disclaim liability for errors or omissions in the communications. No warranty of any kind, express, implied or statutory, including, without limitation, any warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement of third party rights or freedom from viruses or other code defects, is made by any Agent in connection with the Communications or the Platform.

Section 11.02 Waivers; Amendment . (a) No failure or delay by any Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of each Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of any Loan Document (other than any Hedging Agreement) or consent to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section 11.02 , and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan or issuance of a Letter of Credit shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default, regardless of whether any Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Bank may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time.

(b) Neither this Agreement nor any other Loan Document nor any provision hereof or thereof may be waived, amended, supplemented or modified except, in the case of this Agreement,

131

pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by Borrower and the Required Lenders or, in the case of any other Loan Document, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent (in the case of any Security Document) and the Loan Party or Loan Parties that are parties thereto, in each case with the written consent of the Required Lenders; provided that no such agreement shall:

(i) increase the Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender;

(ii) reduce the principal amount or premium, if any, of any Loan or LC Disbursement or reduce the rate of interest thereon (other than waiver of any increase in the rate of interest pursuant to Section 2.06(c) ), or reduce any Fees payable hereunder, or change the currency of payment of any Obligation, without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby;

(iii) postpone or extend the maturity of any Loan, or any scheduled date of payment of or the installment otherwise due on the principal amount of any Term Loan under Section 2.09 , or the required date of payment of any Reimbursement Obligation, or any date for the payment of any interest or fees payable hereunder, or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment (other than a waiver of any increase in the rate of interest pursuant to Section 2.06(c)) , or postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any Commitment or postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any Letter of Credit beyond the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby;

(iv) change Section 11.04(b) in a manner which further restricts assignments thereunder without the written consent of each Lender

(vii) release all or substantially all of the Subsidiary Guarantors from their Guarantees (except as expressly provided in Article VII ), or limit their liability in respect of such Guarantees, without the written consent of each Lender;

(viii) except as otherwise permitted in any Security Document or by Section 6.06 , release all or substantially all of the Collateral from the Liens of the Security Documents or alter the relative priorities of the Obligations entitled to the Liens of the Security Documents (except in connection with securing additional Obligations equally and ratably with the other Obligations), in each case without the written consent of each Lender;

(ix) change any provisions of any Loan Document in a manner that by its terms adversely affects the rights in respect of payments due to Lenders holding Loans of any Class differently than those holding Loans of any other Class, without the written consent of

132

Lenders holding a majority in interest of the outstanding Loans and unused Commitments of each adversely affected Class;

(x) change the order of application of prepayments among Term Loans and Revolving Commitments under Section 2.10(h) or change the application of prepayments of Term Loans set forth in Section 2.10(h) , in each case without the consent of the Required Lenders and Term Loan Lenders holding more than 50% of the principal amount of the outstanding Term Loans;

(xi) change the advance rates set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) of the definition of Borrowing Base or the definition of Eligibility Criteria (or the qualifications or basis for determining whether a Receivable qualifies as an Eligible Receivable or Inventory qualifies as Eligible Inventory) or the establishment or modification of any Borrowing Base Reserve (including changing or modifying the defined terms used, respectively, therein) if the effect thereof (with such effect determined on a cumulative basis for all such changes or other modifications from the Closing Date or, if later, the date of effectiveness of the immediately preceding approval provided as contemplated by this clause (xi) ) is to reduce availability under the Borrowing Base (based on the Borrowing Base Certificate last delivered) by an aggregate amount equal to or in excess of $1,000,000, in each case without the consent of the Revolving Lenders holding more than 50% of the Revolving Exposure; or

(xii) change the Collateral Management Agreement, without the consent of the Collateral Manager.

provided, further, that (1) no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Collateral Manager, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Manager, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, as the case may be, (2) any waiver, amendment or modification of this Agreement that by its terms affects the rights or duties under this Agreement of the Revolving Lenders (but not the Term Loan Lenders), or the Term Loan Lenders (but not the Revolving Lenders) may be effected by an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by Borrower and the requisite percentage in interest of the affected Class of Lenders that would be required to consent thereto under this Section 11.02 if such Class of Lenders were the only Class of Lenders hereunder at the time, and (3) any waiver, amendment or modification prior to the achievement of a successful syndication of the credit facilities provided herein (as determined by the Arranger in its sole discretion) may not be effected without the written consent of the Arranger. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any provision of this Agreement may be amended by an agreement in writing entered into by Borrower, the Required Lenders and the Administrative Agent (and, if their rights or obligations are affected thereby, the Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender) if (x) by the terms of such agreement the Commitment of each Lender not consenting to the amendment provided for therein shall terminate upon the effectiveness of such amendment, (y) at the time such amendment becomes effective, each Lender not consenting thereto receives payment in full of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest accrued on each Loan made by it and all other amounts owing to it or accrued for its account under this Agreement, and (z) Section 2.16(b) is complied with.

Without the consent of any other person, the applicable Loan Party or Loan Parties and the Administrative Agent and/or Collateral Agent may (in its or their respective sole discretion, or shall, to the extent required by any Loan Document) enter into any amendment or waiver of any Loan Document, or enter into any new agreement or instrument, to effect the granting, perfection, protection, expansion or enhancement of any security interest in any Collateral or additional property to become Collateral for the benefit of the Secured Parties, or as required by applicable Legal Requirements to give effect to, or

133

protect any security interest for the benefit of the Secured Parties, in any property or assets so that the security interests therein comply with applicable Legal Requirements.

(c) The Loan Parties agree, jointly and severally, that, without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and any affected Lender, which consent(s) will not be unreasonably withheld, the Loan Parties will not enter into any settlement of a Claim in respect of the subject matter of clauses (i) through (ix) of Section 11.03(b) unless such settlement includes an explicit and unconditional release from the party bringing such Claim of all affected Indemnitees and does not include any statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or failure to act by or on behalf of any Indemnitees.

(d) The provisions of this Section 11.03 shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of the expiration of the term of this Agreement, the consummation of the Transactions and the other transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, Reimbursement Obligations and any other Obligations, the release of any Guarantor or of all or any portion of the Collateral, the expiration of the Commitments, the expiration of any Letter of Credit, the invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any investigation made by or on behalf of the Agents, the Issuing Bank or any Lender.

For purposes of this paragraph, a Lender’s “ pro rata share” shall be determined based upon its share of the sum of the total Revolving Exposure, outstanding Term Loans and unused Commitments at the time.

135

of, in connection with, or as a result of, any Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated thereby, the Transactions, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof.

(ii) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, except that this clause (ii) shall not be construed to prohibit the assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations in respect of one Class of Commitments or Loans;

(iii) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 (which fee may be waived or reduced by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion); provided that such fee shall not be payable in the case of (A) an assignment by any Lender to an Approved Fund of such Lender, (B) any assignment made in connection with the primary syndication of the Commitments and Loans by the Arranger or (C) an assignment settled through the Administrative Agent;

136

(iv) the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire;

(v) in the case of an assignment of all or a portion of a Revolving Commitment or any Revolving Lender’s obligations in respect of its LC Exposure or Swingline Exposure (except in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund), the Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender must give its prior written consent to such assignment (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned);

(vi) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, the Administrative Agent must give its prior written consent to such assignment (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned); and

(vii) in the case of an assignment of all or a portion of a Revolving Commitment, a Revolving Loan or any Revolving Lender’s obligations in respect of its LC Exposure or Swingline Exposure (except in the case of (A) an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, or (B) any assignment made in connection with the syndication of the Commitment and Loans by the Arranger), Borrower must give its prior written consent to such assignment (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing (i) any consent of Borrower otherwise required under this paragraph shall not be required, and (ii) any consent of the Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender required under this paragraph (b) may be withheld by such person in its sole discretion. Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (d) of this Section 11.04 , from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement ( provided that any liability of Borrower to such assignee under Section 2.12 , 2.13 or 2.15 shall be limited to the amount, if any, that would have been payable thereunder by Borrower in the absence of such assignment, except to the extent any such amounts are attributable to a Change in Law occurring after the date of such assignment), and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.12 , 2.13 , 2.15 and 11.03 ).

(c) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amount of the Loans and LC Disbursements owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “ Register ”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error, and Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders may treat each person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by Borrower, the Issuing Bank, the Collateral Agent, the Swingline Lender and any Lender (with respect to its own interest only), at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(d) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, the assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section 11.04 and any written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this

137

Section 11.04 , the Administrative Agent shall reasonably promptly accept such Assignment and Acceptance and record the information contained therein in the Register. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with the requirements of this Section 11.04 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (e) of this Section 11.04 .

(e) Any Lender shall have the right at any time, without the consent of, or notice to Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, or the Swingline Lender or any other person to sell participations to any person (other than any Company or any Affiliate thereof or a natural person) (a “ Participant ”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Issuing Bank and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce the Loan Documents and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of the Loan Documents; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver that (1) is described in clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) of the proviso to Section 11.02(b) and (2) directly affects such Participant. Subject to paragraph (f) of this Section 11.04 , each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.12 , 2.13 and 2.15 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section 11.04 . To the extent permitted by Legal Requirements, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 11.08 as though it were a Lender; provided that such Participant agrees in writing to be subject to Section 2.14(c) as though it were a Lender. Each Lender shall, acting for this purpose as an agent of Borrower, maintain at one of its offices a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of its Participants, and the amount and terms of its participations; provided that no Lender shall be required to disclose or share the information contained in such register with Borrower or any other person, except as required by applicable Legal Requirements.

(f) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.12 or 2.15 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 the prior written consent of Borrower (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.15 unless Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of Borrower, to comply with Section 2.15(e) as though it were a Lender.

(g) 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 or any central bank, and this Section 11.04 shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. Without limiting the foregoing, in the case of any Lender that is a fund that invests in bank loans or similar extensions of credit, such Lender may, without the consent of Borrower, the Issuing Bank, the Swingline Lender, the Administrative Agent or any other person, collaterally assign or pledge all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement, including the Loans and Notes or any other instrument evidencing its rights as a Lender under this

138

Agreement, to any holder of, trustee for, or any other representative of holders of, obligations owed or securities issued, by such fund, as security for such obligations or securities.

(h) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a “ Granting Lender ”) may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle (an “ SPC ”), identified as such in writing from time to time by the Granting Lender to the Administrative Agent and Borrower, the option to provide to Borrower all or any part of any Loan that such Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to make to such Borrower pursuant to this Agreement; provided that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any SPC to make any Loan and (ii) if an SPC elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to provide all or any part of such Loan, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to make such Loan pursuant to the terms hereof; provided further that nothing herein shall make the SPC a “Lender” for the purposes of this Agreement, obligate Borrower or any other Loan Party or the Administrative Agent to deal with such SPC directly, obligate Borrower or any other Loan Party in any manner to any greater extent than they were obligated to the Granting Lender, or increase costs or expenses of Borrower. The Loan Parties and the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to deal solely with, and obtain good discharge from, the Granting Lender and shall not be required to investigate or otherwise seek the consent or approval of any SPC, including for the approval of any amendment, waiver or other modification of any provision of any Loan Document. The making of a Loan by an SPC hereunder shall utilize the Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same extent, and as if, such Loan were made by such Granting Lender. Each party hereto hereby agrees that no SPC shall be liable for any indemnity or similar payment obligation under this Agreement (all liability for which shall remain with the Granting Lender). In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereto hereby agrees (which agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement) that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding commercial paper or other senior indebtedness of any SPC, it will not institute against, or join any other person in instituting against, such SPC any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings under the laws of the United States of America or any state thereof. In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 11.04(h) , any SPC may (i) with notice to, but without the prior written consent of, Borrower and the Administrative Agent and without paying any processing fee therefor, assign all or a portion of its interests in any Loans to the Granting Lender or to any financial institutions (consented to by Borrower and the Administrative Agent) providing liquidity and/or credit support to or for the account of such SPC to support the funding or maintenance of Loans and (ii) disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its Loans to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety, guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPC.

(i) The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in any Assignment and Acceptance shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable Legal Requirement, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.

Section 11.05 Survival of Agreement . All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Loan Parties in the Loan Documents and in the reports, certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and the making of any Loans and issuance of any Letters of Credit, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Agents, the Issuing Bank or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force

139

and effect as long as any Obligation or any Letter of Credit is outstanding and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated. The provisions of Article X and Sections 2.12 to 2.15 , 10.06 , 11.03 and 11.08 to 11.10 shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the Transactions and the other transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the payment of the Reimbursement Obligations, the expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit and the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof.

Section 11.06 Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness . This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement, the Fee Letter 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 which, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy or other electronic transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

Section 11.07 Severability . Any provision of this Agreement held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction.

Section 11.08 Right of Setoff . If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender, the Issuing Bank and each of their respective Affiliates are hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any time held and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing by such Lender, the Issuing Bank or any such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of any Loan Party against any and all of the obligations of any Loan Party now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Documents held by such Lender or the Issuing Bank, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such obligations may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch or office of such Lender or the Issuing Bank different from the branch or office holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness. The rights of each Lender under this Section 11.08 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender may have.

Section 11.09 Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process . (a) This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the law of the State of New York, without regard to conflicts of law principles that would require the application of the laws of another jurisdiction.

(b) Each Loan Party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the State of New York sitting in New York County and of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to any Loan Document, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be

140

heard and determined in such New York State court or, to the extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, in such federal court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by applicable Legal Requirements. Nothing in this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise shall affect any right that the Administrative Agent, any other Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any Loan Party or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.

(c) Each Loan Party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document in any court referred to in Section 11.09(b) . Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.

(d) Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to any Loan Document, in the manner provided for notices (other than facsimile or email) in Section 11.01 . Nothing in this Agreement or any other Loan Document will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by applicable Legal Requirements.

Section 11.10 Waiver of Jury Trial . Each party hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, any right it may have to a trial by jury in any legal proceeding directly or indirectly arising out of or relating to any Loan Document, the Transactions or the other transactions contemplated thereby (whether based on contract, tort or any other theory). Each party hereto (a) certifies that no representative, agent or attorney of any other party has represented, expressly or otherwise, that such other party would not, in the event of litigation, seek to enforce the foregoing waiver and (b) acknowledges that it and the other parties hereto have been induced to enter into this Agreement by, among other things, the mutual waivers and certifications in this Section 11.10 .

Section 11.11 Headings; No Adverse Interpretation of Other Agreements . Article and Section headings and the Table of Contents used herein are for convenience of reference only, are not part of this Agreement and shall not affect the construction of, or be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement. This Agreement may not be used to interpret any other loan or debt agreement or instrument of any Company or of any other person. Any such loan or debt agreement or instrument may not be used to interpret this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

Section 11.12 Confidentiality . Each of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its and its Affiliates’ and Approved Funds’ directors, officers, employees, agents, advisors and other representatives, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors (it being understood that the persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential pursuant to the terms hereof), (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority or any quasi-regulatory authority (such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners), (c) to the extent required by applicable Legal Requirements or by any subpoena or similar legal process or in connection with any pledge or assignment made pursuant to Section 11.04(g) , (d) to any other party to this Agreement, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies under the Loan Documents or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f)

141

subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section 11.12 , to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement, (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to Borrower and its obligations, (iii) any rating agency for the purpose of obtaining a credit rating applicable to any Loan or Loan Party or (iv) any actual or prospective investor in an SPC, (g) with the consent of Borrower or (h) to the extent such Information (i) is publicly available at the time of disclosure or becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 11.12 or (ii) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than Borrower or any Subsidiary. In addition, the Agents, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders may disclose the existence of the Loan Documents and information about the Loan Documents to market data collectors, similar service providers to the financing community, and service providers to the Agents, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders. For the purposes of this Section 11.12 , “ Information ” shall mean all information received from Borrower relating to Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or its business that is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by Borrower. Any person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section 11.12 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 accords to its own confidential information.

Section 11.13 Interest Rate Limitation . Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the interest rate applicable to any Loan, together with all fees, charges and other amounts which are treated as interest on such Loan under applicable law (collectively, the “ Charges ”), shall exceed the maximum lawful rate (the “ Maximum Rate ”) which may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by the Lender holding such Loan in accordance with applicable Legal Requirements, the rate of interest payable in respect of such Loan hereunder, together with all Charges payable in respect thereof, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate and, to the extent lawful, the interest and Charges that would have been payable in respect of such Loan but were not payable as a result of the operation of this Section 11.13 shall be cumulated and the interest and Charges payable to such Lender in respect of other Loans or periods shall be increased (but not above the Maximum Rate therefor) until such cumulated amount, together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Effective Rate to the date of repayment, shall have been received by such Lender.

Section 11.14 Assignment and Acceptance . Each Lender to become a party to this Agreement (other than the Administrative Agent and any other Lender that is a signatory hereto) shall do so by delivering to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance duly executed by such Lender, Borrower (if Borrower consent to such assignment is required hereunder) and the Administrative Agent.

Section 11.15 Obligations Absolute . To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, all obligations of the Loan Parties hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional irrespective of:

(a) any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, arrangement, readjustment, composition, liquidation or the like of any Loan Party;

(b) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Loan Document or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto against any Loan Party;

(c) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Obligations, or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to any departure from any Loan Document or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto;

142

(d) any exchange, release or non-perfection or loss of priority of any Liens on any or all of the Collateral, or any release or amendment or waiver of or consent to any departure from any guarantee, for all or any of the Obligations;

(e) any exercise or non-exercise, or any waiver of any right, remedy, power or privilege under or in respect hereof or any Loan Document; or

(f) any other circumstances which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, the Loan Parties.

Section 11.16 Waiver of Defenses; Absence of Fiduciary Duties . (a) Each of the Loan Parties hereby waives any and all suretyship defenses available to it as a Guarantor arising out of the joint and several nature of its respective duties and obligations hereunder (including any defense contained in Article VII ).

(b) Each of the Loan Parties agrees that in connection with all aspects of the transactions contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents and any communications in connection therewith, the Loan Parties and their respective Affiliates, on the one hand, and each Lender, SPC and Agent, on the other hand, will have a business relationship that does not create, by implication or otherwise, any fiduciary duty on the part of any Lender, SPC or any Agent or any of their respective Affiliates, and no such duty will be deemed to have arisen in connection with any such transactions or communications.

Section 11.17 Patriot Act . Each Lender hereby notifies each Loan Party that pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act, it may be required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Loan Parties, which information includes the name, address and taxpayer identification number of each Loan Party and other information that will allow such Lender to identify such Loan Party in accordance with the Patriot Act.

Section 11.18 Judgment Currency . (a) The Loan Parties’ obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents to make payments in Dollars shall not be discharged or satisfied by any tender or recovery pursuant to any judgment expressed in or converted into any currency other than Dollars, except to the extent that such tender or recovery results in the effective receipt by the Administrative Agent or the respective Lender or Issuing Bank of the full amount of Dollars expressed to be payable to the Administrative Agent or such Lender or Issuing Bank under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents. If, for the purpose of obtaining or enforcing judgment against any Loan Party in any court or in any jurisdiction, it becomes necessary to convert into or from any currency other than Dollars (such other currency being hereinafter referred to as the “ Judgment Currency ”) an amount due in Dollars, the conversion shall be made at the Dollar Equivalent determined as of the Business Day immediately preceding the day on which the judgment is given (such Business Day being hereinafter referred to as the “ Judgment Currency Conversion Date ”).

(b) If there is a change in the rate of exchange prevailing between the Judgment Currency Conversion Date and the date of actual payment of the amount due, the Loan Parties shall pay, or cause to be paid, such additional amounts, if any (but in any event not a lesser amount) as may be necessary to ensure that the amount paid in the Judgment Currency, when converted at the rate of exchange prevailing on the date of payment, will produce the amount of Dollars which could have been purchased with the amount of Judgment Currency stipulated in the judgment or judicial award at the rate of exchange prevailing on the Judgment Currency Conversion Date.

143

(c) For purposes of determining the Dollar Equivalent or any other rate of exchange for this Section 11.18 , such amounts shall include any premium and costs payable in connection with the purchase of Dollars.

Section 11.19 Assumption of Obligations under Loan Documents . Concurrently with the consummation of the Acquisition, the Target and of its Subsidiaries will (i) enter into such agreements as reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent to assume all of the Obligations and the other liabilities and obligations of Subsidiary Guarantors under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and (ii) agree that they are bound as Subsidiary Guarantors under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and, in the case of the Security Documents, as Pledgors, in each case, by all of the terms, covenants and conditions set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to the same extent as if the Target and such Subsidiary Guarantors had been Subsidiary Guarantors immediately prior to the consummation of the Acquisition.

Section 11.20 Assumption of Obligations under Commitment Letter and Fee Letter . Each Loan Party hereby irrevocably agrees that it is jointly and severally liable with Borrower and each other Loan Party for any and all liabilities and obligations of Borrower relating to or arising out of any of its respective duties, responsibilities and obligations under the Commitment Letter and the Fee Letter.

Section 11.21 LEGEND . THE TERM LOANS HAVE BEEN ISSUED WITH ORIGINAL ISSUE DISCOUNT FOR UNITED STATES FEDERAL INCOME TAX PURPOSES. THE ISSUE PRICE, AMOUNT OF ORIGINAL ISSUE DISCOUNT, ISSUE DATE AND YIELD TO MATURITY OF THESE LOANS MAY BE OBTAINED BY WRITING TO THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AT THE ADDRESS SET FORTH IN SECTION 11.01.

ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA

PART 1 — ELIGIBLE RECEIVABLES

The following shall constitute the eligibility criteria for acceptance of Receivables and Inventory for inclusion in the Borrowing Base (capitalized terms not otherwise defined in the Credit Agreement and used in this Annex IV shall have the meaning provided in the Collateral Management Agreement and, if not defined therein, in the Security Agreement):

(a) The information provided by the Loan Parties with respect to each such Receivable is complete and correct and all documents, attestations and agreements relating thereto that have been delivered to the Collateral Manager are true and correct, and, other than with respect to Unbilled Receivables, the applicable Loan Party has billed the applicable Obligor and has delivered to such Obligor all requested supporting claim documents with respect to such Receivable and no amounts with respect to such Receivable have been paid as of the date and time of the inclusion of such Receivable in the Borrowing Base. All information set forth in the bill and supporting claim documents with respect to such Receivable is true, complete and correct; if additional information is requested by the Obligor, each Loan Party (or the applicable member thereof) has or will promptly provide the same, and if any error has been made with respect to such information, each Loan Party will promptly correct the same and, if necessary, rebill such Receivable.

(b) Each such Receivable (i) is payable, in an amount not less than its Expected Net Value, by the Obligor identified by the applicable Loan Party as being obligated to do so, (ii) is based on an actual and bona fide rendition of services to the Obligor or sale of goods to an Obligor or a plan participant of the Obligor in the ordinary course of business, (iii) is denominated and payable only in U.S. dollars in the United States, and (iv) is an account receivable or general intangible within the meaning of the UCC of the state in which the applicable Loan Party has its principal place of business, or is a right to payment under a policy of insurance or proceeds thereof, and is not evidenced by any instrument or chattel paper. There is no payor other than the Obligor identified by the Loan Parties as the payor primarily liable on such Receivable.

(c) Each such Receivable (i) is not the subject of any action, suit, proceeding or dispute (pending or threatened), setoff, counterclaim, defense, abatement, suspension, deferment, deductible, reduction or termination by the Obligor (except for statutory rights of Governmental Entities that are not pending or threatened), (ii) is not past, or within 60 days of, the statutory limit for collection applicable to the Obligor or is not aged more than 180 days from its Last Service Date, (iii) in the case of a Receivable that is not a Rebate Receivable, was not billed to the Obligor on a date more than 30 days after the Last Service Date, and (iv) in the case of a Rebate Receivable, was not billed to the Obligor on a date more than 60 days after the end of the fiscal quarter in which such Rebate Receivable became due and payable.

(d) Each such Receivable is not due from any Governmental Authority other than Medicare, Medicaid, TRICARE/CHAMPUS, Ryan White programs, 340B drug pricing programs, the State Children’s Health Insurance Program (Title XXI of the Social Security Act) or any similar state or federally funded program.

(e) No Loan Party has any guaranty of, letter of credit providing credit support for, or collateral security for, such Receivable, other than any such guaranty, letter of credit or collateral

Annex IV-1

security as has been assigned to the Collateral Agent (for the benefit of the Secured Parties), and any such guaranty, letter of credit or collateral security is not subject to any Lien in favor of any other Person.

(f) The Obligor with respect to each such Receivable is (i) not currently the subject of any bankruptcy, insolvency or receivership proceeding, nor is it unable to make payments on its obligations when due, (ii) located in the United States of America, (iii) one of the following: (x) a person which in the ordinary course of its business or activities agrees to pay for healthcare services received by individuals, including, without limitation, commercial insurance companies and non-profit insurance companies (such as Blue Cross and Blue Shield) issuing health, personal injury, worker’s compensation or other types of insurance, employers or unions which self-insure for employee or member health insurance, prepaid healthcare organizations, preferred provider organizations, health maintenance organizations, commercial hospitals, physician’s groups or any other similar person or (y) an individual, (iv) not an Affiliate of Borrower and (v) not the Obligor of any Receivable that was a Defaulted Receivable in the past 12 months.

(g) The financing of such Receivables under the Loan Documents is made in good faith and without actual intent to hinder, delay or defraud present or future creditors of any of the Loan Parties.

(h) The insurance policy, contract or other instrument obligating an Obligor to make payment with respect to such Receivable (i) does not contain any provision prohibiting the grant of a security interest in such payment obligation from the applicable Loan Party to the Collateral Agent (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) as provided in the Security Documents, (ii) has been duly authorized and, together with such Receivable, constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Obligor in accordance with its terms, (iii) together with such Receivable, does not contravene in any material respect any requirement of law applicable thereto, and (iv) was in full force and effect and applicable to the Obligor at the time the goods or services constituting the basis for such Receivable were sold or performed.

(i) No consents by any third party to the assignment of such Receivable are required other than consents previously obtained in writing by the relevant Loan Party, a copy of each such consent having been provided to the Collateral Manager.

(j) The inclusion of each such Receivable in the Borrowing Base would not increase the fraction expressed as a percentage where (i) the numerator is the sum of the then outstanding principal amount of Eligible Receivables for any Obligor (or group of Obligors) listed below included in the Borrowing Base, and (ii) the denominator is the Borrowing Base for all Eligible Receivables, above the corresponding maximum percentage listed below:

(k) Unless specifically verified and accepted by the Collateral Manager, no single Eligible Receivable that is not a Rebate Receivable has an Expected Net Value greater than $800,000.

(l) For the 12-month period then most recently ended, the product obtained by multiplying (a) the quotient obtained by dividing (i) the average Receivables of the Loan Parties over the three month period ending on such date, by (ii) average revenue of the Loan Parties generated from Receivables over the three month period ending on such date, by (b) 365 day, is no more than 75 days.

(m) No prior sale or assignment of security interest which is still in effect on the applicable date of the Borrowing Base Certificate has been made with respect to or granted in any such Receivable.

R E C I T A L S :

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

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

C. BioScrip, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“ Borrower ”), the Subsidiary Guarantors party thereto and the Collateral Agent, among others, have entered into a credit agreement, dated as of March 25, 2010 (as amended, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “ Credit Agreement ”; terms used and not otherwise defined herein that are defined in the Credit Agreement shall have the meanings assigned to such terms therein), pursuant to which the Lenders have agreed to make certain loans to Borrower (collectively, the “ Loans ”).

²		Include if Borrower is not the Lessee.

F-1

A G R E E M E N T :

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

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

2. Landlord agrees that it will provide the Collateral Agent (via overnight mail at Lessee’s cost and expense) with written notice of any default by Lessee under the Lease resulting in termination of the Lease (a “ Default Notice ”) at the same time as it sends such notice to the Lessee. The Collateral Agent shall have at least 10 days following receipt of such Default Notice to cure such default, but the Collateral Agent shall not be under any obligation to cure any default by Lessee under the Lease. No action by the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed to be an assumption by the Collateral Agent of any obligation under the Lease, and, except as provided in Sections 3 , 5 and 6 below, the Collateral Agent shall not have any obligation to Landlord.

3. Landlord agrees that the Personal Property is and will remain personal property and not fixtures even though it may be affixed to or placed on the Leased Premises. Landlord further agrees that the Collateral Agent has the right to remove the Personal Property from the Leased Premises at any time in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents; provided that the Collateral Agent shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to notify Landlord first and shall repair any damage arising from such removal. Landlord further agrees that it will not hinder the Collateral Agent’s actions in removing Personal Property from the Leased Premises or the Collateral Agent’s actions in otherwise enforcing its security interest in the Personal Property. The Collateral Agent shall not be liable for any diminution in value of the Leased Premises caused by the absence of Personal Property actually removed or by the need to replace the Personal Property after such removal. Landlord acknowledges that the Collateral Agent shall have no obligation to remove the Personal Property from the Leased Premises.

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

5. Upon a termination of the Lease, Landlord will permit the Collateral Agent and its representatives and invitees to occupy and remain on the Leased Premises; provided that (a) such period of occupation (the “ Disposition Period ”) shall not exceed 180 days following receipt by the Collateral Agent of a Default Notice or, if the Lease has expired by its own terms (absent a default thereunder), up to 60 days following the Collateral Agent’s receipt of written notice of such expiration, (b) for the actual period of occupancy by the Collateral Agent, the Applicable Collateral Agent will pay to Landlord the basic rent due under the Lease pro rated on a per diem basis determined on a 30-day month, and shall provide and retain liability and property insurance coverage, electricity and heat to the extent required by the Lease and (c) such amounts paid by the Collateral Agent to Landlord shall exclude any rent adjustments, indemnity payments or similar amounts for which the Lessee remains liable under the Lease for default, holdover status or other similar charges. If any injunction or stay is issued that prohibits the

F-2

Collateral Agent from removing the Personal Property, the commencement of the applicable Disposition Period will be deferred until such injunction or stay is lifted or removed.

6. During any Disposition Period, (a) the Collateral Agent and its representatives and invitees may inspect, repossess, remove and otherwise deal with the Personal Property, and the Collateral Agent may advertise and conduct public auctions or private sales of the Personal Property at the Leased Premises, in each case without interference by Landlord or liability of the Collateral Agent or any Lender to Landlord and (b) the Collateral Agent shall make the Leased Premises available for inspection by Landlord and prospective tenants and shall cooperate in Landlord’s reasonable efforts to re-lease the Leased Premises. If the Collateral Agent conducts a public auction or private sale of the Personal Property at the Leased Premises, the Collateral Agent shall use reasonable efforts to notify Landlord first and to hold such auction or sale in a manner which would not unduly disrupt Landlord’s or any other tenant’s use of the Leased Premises.

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

8. All notices to any party hereto under this Agreement shall be in writing and sent to such party at its respective address set forth above (or at such other address as shall be designated by such party in a written notice to the other party complying as to delivery with the terms of this Section 8 ) by certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested or by overnight delivery service.

9. The provisions of this Agreement shall continue in effect until Landlord shall have received the Collateral Agent’s written certification that the Loans have been paid in full and all of Borrower’s other Obligations under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents have been satisfied (exclusive of indemnification obligations which survive this termination of the Loan Documents).

10. THE INTERPRETATION, VALIDITY AND ENFORCEMENT OF THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED UNDER THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO THE CONFLICTS OF LAW PRINCIPLES THEREOF THAT WOULD APPLY THE LAWS OF ANOTHER JURISDICTION.

11. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which taken together shall constitute a single agreement.

Enforcement of Rights; Matters Relating to Collateral

proceeding with respect to such rights or remedies (including any foreclosure action or proceeding or any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding or Liquidation Sale), in each case, without any consultation with or the consent of any Second Priority Secured Party except as required pursuant to applicable law; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, the Second Priority Secured Parties may file a proof of claim or statement of interest with respect to the Second Priority Claims; (ii) the Second Priority Secured Parties may take any action to preserve or protect the validity and enforceability of the Second Priority Liens, provided that no such action is, or could reasonably be expected to be, (A) materially adverse to the First Priority Liens or the rights of the First Priority Secured Parties as secured creditors or any other First Priority Secured Party to exercise remedies as secured creditors in respect thereof or (B) otherwise inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement, including the automatic release of Second Priority Liens provided in Section 3.04 ; (iii) the Second Priority Secured Parties may file any responsive or defensive pleadings in opposition to any motion, claim, adversary proceeding or other pleading made by any Person objecting to or otherwise seeking the disallowance of the claims of the Second Priority Secured Parties, including any claims secured by the Collateral or otherwise make any agreements or file any motions pertaining to the Second Priority Claims, in each case, to the extent not inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement; (iv) the Second Priority Secured Parties may exercise rights and remedies as unsecured creditors, as provided in Section 3.03(a) ; and (v) subject to Section 3.02(a) , the Second Priority Agent and the other Second Priority Secured Parties may enforce any of their rights and exercise any of their remedies with respect to the Collateral after the termination of the Standstill Period (the actions described in this proviso being referred to herein as the “ Second Priority Permitted Actions ”).

(b) In exercising rights and remedies with respect to the Collateral, subject to applicable law (including all provisions of the UCC applicable thereto), the First Priority Agent and the other First Priority Secured Parties may enforce the provisions of the First Priority Debt Documents and exercise remedies thereunder, all in such order, without notice (except as required by applicable law (including all provisions of the UCC applicable thereto)) to any Second Priority Secured Creditor and in such manner as they may determine in their sole discretion ( provided that, without limiting the foregoing, the First Priority Agent shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to provide Supplier with subsequent notice thereof).

Proceeding or in connection with a Liquidation Sale or otherwise, so long as Second Priority Liens attach to the proceeds thereof subject to the relative priorities set forth in Section 2.01(a) , and will not contest, protest or object to the forbearance by the First Priority Agent or any other First Priority Secured Party from commencing or pursuing any foreclosure action or proceeding or any other enforcement or exercise of any rights or remedies with respect to the Collateral.

In furtherance of the foregoing, Supplier, for itself and on behalf of the other Second Priority Secured Parties, agrees that, whether or not any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding or Liquidation Sale has been commenced, the Second Priority Secured Parties will not, except for Second Priority Permitted Actions, (w) take or receive any Collateral, or any proceeds thereof or payment with respect thereto, in connection with the exercise of any right or enforcement of any remedy with respect to any Collateral or in connection with any insurance policy award under a policy of insurance relating to any Collateral or any condemnation award (or deed in lieu of condemnation) relating to any Collateral, (x) take any action that would, or could reasonably be expected to, hinder, in any manner, any exercise of remedies under the First Priority Debt Documents, including any Disposition of any Collateral, whether by foreclosure or otherwise and (y) object to the manner in which the First Priority Agent or any other First Priority Secured Party may seek to enforce or collect the First Priority Claims or the First Priority Liens, regardless of whether any action or failure to act by or on behalf of the First Priority Agent or any other First Priority Secured Party is, or could be, adverse to the interests of the Second Priority Secured Parties, and will not assert, and hereby waive, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any right to demand, request, plead or otherwise assert or claim the benefit of any marshalling, appraisal, valuation or other similar right that may be available under applicable law with respect to the Collateral or any similar rights a junior secured creditor may have under applicable law, and (z) will not attempt, directly or indirectly, whether by judicial proceeding or otherwise, to challenge or question the validity or enforceability of any First Priority Claim or any First Priority Security Document, including this Agreement, or the validity or enforceability of the priorities, rights or obligations established by this Agreement.

SECTION 3.03. Rights as Unsecured Creditors. The Second Priority Secured Parties may, in accordance with the terms of the Second Priority Financing Documents and applicable law, enforce rights and exercise remedies against any Grantor as unsecured creditors; provided that no such action is otherwise inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the Second Priority Secured Parties shall be entitled to prosecute litigation against any Grantor or any other Person liable in respect of the Second Priority Claims but shall be prohibited from taking any action to enforce any judgment relating to, or applicable to, any of the Second Priority Collateral until the Discharge of the First Priority Claims. Nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit the receipt by any Second Priority Secured Party of the required payments of any amounts due under the Second Priority Financing Documents so long as such receipt is not the direct or indirect result of the enforcement of Second Priority Liens or exercise in contravention of this Agreement by any Second Priority Secured Party of rights or remedies as a secured creditor against Collateral or enforcement in contravention of this Agreement of any Second Priority Lien against Collateral (including any judgment lien resulting from the exercise of remedies available to an unsecured creditor to the extent relating to, or applicable to, any of the Second Priority Collateral).

SECTION 3.04. Automatic Release of Second Priority Liens. If, in connection with (i) any Disposition of any Collateral permitted under the terms of the First Priority Debt Documents or (ii) the enforcement or exercise of any rights or remedies with respect to the Collateral, including any Disposition of Collateral, the First Priority Agent, for

itself and on behalf of the other First Priority Secured Parties, (x) releases any of the First Priority Liens, or (y) releases any Guarantor from its obligations under its guarantee of the First Priority Claims (in each case, a “ Release ”), other than any such Release granted following (and not as a condition to) the Discharge of First Priority Claims, then the Second Priority Liens on such Collateral (to the extent, and only to the extent, subject to the release pursuant to preceding clause (x)), and the obligations of such Guarantor under its guarantee of the Second Priority Claims (to the extent, and only to the extent, to the release of the applicable Guarantor pursuant to preceding clause (y)), shall be automatically, unconditionally and simultaneously released (subject to the receipt by the First Priority Agent of any applicable cash proceeds of any such Disposition or sums realized in enforcement or exercise of any rights or remedies with respect to the Second Priority Collateral and the application thereof in accordance with the terms of this Agreement), and Supplier shall, for itself and on behalf of the other Second Priority Secured Parties, promptly execute and deliver to the First Priority Agent, the relevant Grantor or such Guarantor such termination statements, releases and other documents as the First Priority Agent or the relevant Grantor or Guarantor may reasonably request and provide to effectively confirm such Release. For the avoidance of doubt, all proceeds of any Disposition of Collateral or other enforcement or exercise of any rights or remedies with respect to the Collateral received by any Secured Party shall be subject the to application of proceeds requirements of Section 4.01 and, until application in accordance therewith, each Secured Party agrees, subject to applicable law, to hold the same in express trust for such Secured Party (or Secured Parties) as are entitled thereto in accordance with the terms hereof. Until the Discharge of First Priority Claims occurs, any Supplier, for itself and on behalf of any other Second Priority Secured Party, hereby appoints the First Priority Agent, and any officer or agent of the First Priority Agent, with full power of substitution, as the attorney-in-fact of each Second Priority Secured Party for the purpose of carrying out the provisions of this Section 3.04 and taking any action and executing any instrument that the First Priority Agent may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes of this Section 3.04 (including any endorsements or other instruments of transfer or release), which appointment is irrevocable and coupled with an interest.

All proceeds of any such policy and any such award, or any payments with respect to a deed in lieu of condemnation, shall (a) first, prior to the Discharge of First Priority Claims and subject to the rights of the Grantors under the First Priority Debt Documents, be paid to the First Priority Agent for the benefit of First Priority Secured Parties pursuant to the terms of the First Priority Debt Documents, (b) second, after the Discharge of First Priority Claims and subject to the rights of the Grantors under the Second Priority Financing Documents, be paid to the Second Priority Secured Parties pursuant to the terms of the Second Priority Financing Documents, and (c) third, be paid to the owner of the subject property or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct. Until the Discharge of First Priority Claims has occurred, if any Second Priority Secured Party shall, at any time, receive any proceeds of any such insurance policy or any such award or payment, it shall transfer and pay over such proceeds to the First Priority Agent in accordance with Section 4.02 .

SECTION 3.06. Notification of Release of Collateral. Each of the First Priority Agent and Supplier shall give the other prompt written notice of the Disposition by it of,

and Release by it of the Lien on, any Collateral. Such notice shall describe in reasonable detail the subject Collateral, the parties involved in such Disposition or Release, the place, time manner and method thereof, and the consideration, if any, received therefor; provided , however , that the failure to give any such notice shall not in and of itself in any way impair the effectiveness of any such Disposition or Release.

Until the Discharge of First Priority Claims occurs, Supplier, for itself and on behalf of each other Second Priority Secured Party, hereby appoints the First Priority Agent, and any officer or agent of the First Priority Agent, with full power of substitution, the attorney-in-fact of each Second Priority Secured Party for the purpose of carrying out the provisions of this Section 4.02 and taking any action and executing any instrument that the First Priority Agent may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes of this Section 4.02 , which appointment is irrevocable and coupled with an interest.

(a) In furtherance of this Agreement, until the Discharge of First Priority Claims has occurred, the Supplier, on behalf of itself and each of the Second Priority Secured Parties, agrees that, in the event of any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, the Second Priority Secured Parties: (i) will not oppose or object to the use of any Collateral constituting cash collateral under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code, or any comparable provision of any other Bankruptcy Law, unless the First Priority Secured Parties, or a representative authorized by the First Priority Secured Parties, shall oppose or object to such use of cash collateral; (ii) (A) will not oppose or object to any post-petition financing provided to any Grantor, whether provided by the First Priority Secured Parties or any other Person, under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code, or any comparable provision of any other Bankruptcy Law (a “ DIP Financing ”), or the Liens securing any DIP Financing (“ DIP Financing Liens ”), unless the First Priority Secured Parties, or a representative authorized by the First Priority Secured Parties, shall then oppose or object to such DIP Financing or such DIP Financing Liens, (B) to the extent that (x) such DIP Financing Liens are senior to, or rank pari passu with, the First Priority Liens on the Collateral, and/or (y) the First Priority Claims are included as obligations under such DIP Financing or are repaid with proceeds of the DIP Financing, the Second Priority Secured Parties will subordinate the Second Priority Liens on the Collateral to the First Priority Liens on the Collateral, if applicable, and the DIP Financing Liens (including if the First Priority Claims are (x) included as obligations under such DIP Financing and/or (y) are repaid with proceeds of the DIP Financing) on the terms of this Agreement; and (C) will not propose or support any DIP Financing to any Grantor; (iii) not propose, vote in favor of, or otherwise support any plan of reorganization that is inconsistent with the priorities or other provisions of this Agreement; (iv) except to the extent permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section 5.01 , in connection with the use of cash collateral as described in clause (i) above or a DIP Financing, will not request adequate protection with respect to any Collateral or any other relief in connection with such use of cash collateral, DIP Financing or DIP Financing Liens; and (v) will not oppose or object to any Disposition of any Collateral free and clear of the Second Priority Liens or other claims under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code, or any comparable provision of any other Bankruptcy Law, if the First Priority Secured Parties, or a representative authorized by the First Priority Secured Parties, shall consent to such Disposition.

If, in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, debt obligations of the reorganized debtor secured by Liens upon any property of the reorganized debtor are distributed, pursuant to a plan of reorganization or similar dispositive

restructuring plan, on account of the First Priority Claims and the Second Priority Claims, then, to the extent the debt obligations distributed on account of the First Priority Claims and on account of the Second Priority Claims are secured by Liens upon the same assets or property, the provisions of this Agreement will survive the distribution of such debt obligations pursuant to such plan and will apply with like effect to the Liens securing such debt obligations. In addition, Supplier, for itself and on behalf of the other Second Priority Secured Parties, (x) agrees that no Second Priority Secured Party shall oppose or seek to challenge any claim by the First Priority Agent or any other First Priority Secured Party for allowance in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding of First Priority Claims consisting of post-petition interest, fees or expenses to the extent of the value of the First Priority Liens (it being understood and agreed that such value shall be determined without regard to the existence of the Second Priority Liens on the Collateral), (y) waives any claim any Second Priority Secured Party may hereafter have against any First Priority Secured Party arising out of (a) the election by any First Priority Secured Party of the application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code, or any comparable provision of any other Bankruptcy Law, or (b) any use of cash collateral or financing arrangement, or any grant of a security interest in the Collateral, in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding and (z) agrees that, without the written consent of First Priority Agent, it will not seek to vote with the First Priority Agent (or any other First Priority Secured Party) as a single class in connection with any plan of reorganization in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding. In addition, other than with respect to the Second Priority Permitted Actions, nothing contained herein shall prohibit or in any way limit the First Priority Agent or any other First Priority Secured Party from opposing, challenging or objecting to, in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding or otherwise, any action taken, or any claim made, by any Second Priority Secured Party with respect to the Collateral, including any request by any Second Priority Secured Party for adequate protection or any exercise by any Second Priority Secured Party of any of its rights and remedies under the Second Priority Financing Documents with respect to the Collateral or otherwise with respect to the Collateral.

the lenders and other creditors under the New First Priority Debt Documents shall be deemed to be the First Priority Creditors for all purposes of this Agreement. Upon receipt of a Refinancing Notice, which notice shall include the identity of the New First Priority Agent, the Second Priority Secured Parties shall promptly enter into such documents and agreements (including amendments or supplements to this Agreement) as the Company or such New First Priority Agent may reasonably request in order to provide to the New First Priority Agent the rights and powers contemplated hereby, in each case consistent in all material respects with the terms of this Agreement.

The obligations and responsibilities of the First Priority Agent to the Second Priority Secured Parties under this Section 6.04 shall be limited solely to holding or controlling the Pledged or Controlled Collateral as gratuitous bailee and representative (as defined in Section 1-201(35) of the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in the State of New York) in accordance with this Section 6.04 . Without limiting the foregoing, the First

Priority Agent shall have no obligation or responsibility to ensure that any Pledged or Controlled Collateral is genuine or owned by any of the Grantors. The First Priority Agent acting pursuant to this Section 6.04 shall not, by reason of this Agreement, any other Security Document or any other document, have a fiduciary relationship in respect of any other First Priority Secured Party or any Second Priority Secured Party. Upon the Discharge of First Priority Claims, the First Priority Agent shall transfer the possession and control of the Pledged or Controlled Collateral, together with any necessary endorsements but without recourse or warranty, (i) if the Second Priority Claims are outstanding at such time, to the Second Priority Secured Parties, if no Second Priority Claims are outstanding at such time, to the applicable Grantor, in each case so as to allow such Person to obtain possession and control of such Pledged or Controlled Collateral. In connection with any transfer under clause (i) of the immediately preceding sentence, the First Priority Agent agrees, at the expense of the Grantors, to take all actions in its power as shall be reasonably requested by the Second Priority Secured Parties to obtain a first priority security interest in the Pledged or Controlled Collateral.

SECTION 6.05. Further Assurances. Each of the First Priority Agent, for itself and on behalf of the other First Priority Secured Parties and the Second Priority Secured Parties, and each Grantor party hereto, for itself and on behalf of its subsidiaries, agrees that it will execute, or will cause to be executed, any and all further documents, agreements and instruments, and take all such further actions, as may be required under any applicable law, or which the First Priority Agent or the Second Priority Secured Parties may reasonably request, to effectuate the terms of this Agreement, including the relative Lien priorities provided for herein.

SECTION 9.05. Amendments; Waivers . (a) No failure or delay on the part of any party hereto in exercising any power or right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power.

COLLATERAL MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT, dated as of March _, 2010 (as it may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time in accordance with its terms, the “ Collateral Management Agreement ”), among BIOSCRIP INC., a Delaware corporation (the “ Borrower ”), the other Loan Parties from time to time party hereto by execution of this Agreement or otherwise by execution of a Joinder Agreement, JEFFERIES FINANCE LLC (“ Jefferies ”), in its capacity as administrative agent and collateral agent for the Secured Parties (in such capacities, the “ Agent ”), and HEALTHCARE FINANCE GROUP LLC, as collateral manager for the Secured Parties (in such capacity, the “ Collateral Manager ”).

R E C I T A L S :

A. Borrower, the subsidiary guarantors party thereto, the Agent and the lending institutions and other entities party thereto (the “ Lenders ”) have entered into that certain credit agreement, dated as of March 25, 2010 (as amended, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “ Credit Agreement ”). Terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Credit Agreement or, if not defined therein, in the Security Agreement.

B. The Guarantors have, pursuant to the Credit Agreement, unconditionally guaranteed the Secured Obligations.

C. Borrower and the other Loan Parties will receive substantial benefits from the execution, delivery and performance of the Secured Obligations under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents and are, therefore, willing to enter into this Agreement.

D. This Agreement is given by each Loan Party in favor of the Collateral Agent and Collateral Manager for the benefit of the Secured Parties to secure the payment and performance of all of the Secured Obligations and each of the Collateral Agent and the Collateral Manager agrees to act, on the terms and conditions set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, for the benefit of the Secured Parties.

E. It is a condition to the obligations of the Lenders to make the Loans under the Credit Agreement and a condition to the Issuing Bank issuing Letters of Credit under the Credit Agreement that the Borrower, each other Loan Party, the Collateral Manager and the Agent execute and deliver the applicable Loan Documents, including this Agreement.

Accordingly, the Borrower, each other Loan Party, the Agent and the Collateral Manager each agrees as follows:

ARTICLE I.
COLLATERAL MANAGER FEES, INDEMNITIES AND AUTHORIZATIONS

Section 1.01 Collateral Tracking Fee . The Borrower shall pay to the Collateral Manager on the first Business Day of each calendar month a monthly collateral monitoring fee in the amount of $20,000.

Section 1.02 Indemnities . Each of the Loan Parties hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Collateral Manager and its respective Affiliates (together with their respective

directors, officers, agents, representatives, shareholders, lenders, counsel and employees, each an “ Indemnified Party ”), from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, costs, expenses (including reasonable counsel fees and disbursements) and liabilities which are actually incurred by such Indemnified Party arising out of this Collateral Management Agreement, or the financings contemplated under the Loan Documents, the Collateral (including, without limitation, the use thereof by any of such Persons or any other Person, the exercise by the Collateral Manager of rights and remedies or any power of attorney hereunder, and any action or inaction of the Collateral Manager hereunder and in accordance with any Loan Document), the use of proceeds of any financial accommodations provided hereunder, any investigation, litigation or other proceeding (brought or threatened) relating thereto, or the role of any such Person or Persons in connection with the foregoing, whether or not any Indemnified Party is named as a party to any legal action or proceeding (“ Claims ”). No Loan Party will be responsible to any Indemnified Party hereunder for any Claims to the extent that a court having jurisdiction shall have determined by a final nonappealable judgment that any such Claim shall have arisen out of or resulted directly and principally from (i)(1) actions taken or omitted to be taken by such Indemnified Party by reason of the bad faith, willful misconduct or gross negligence of any Indemnified Party, or (2) in violation of any law or regulation applicable to such Indemnified Party (except to the extent that such violation is attributable to any breach of any representation, warranty or agreement by or on behalf of the Loan Parties or any of their designees, in each case, as determined by a final nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction), or (ii) a successful claim by any Loan Party against such Indemnified Party (“ Excluded Claims ”). The Indemnified Party shall give the Borrower prompt written notice of any Claim setting forth a description of those elements of the Claim of which such Indemnified Party has knowledge. The Collateral Manager, as an Indemnified Party, shall be permitted hereunder to select counsel to defend such Claim with the consent of the Borrower, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, at the expense of the Borrower and, if such Indemnified Party shall decide to do so, then all such Indemnified Parties shall select the same counsel to defend such Indemnified Parties with respect to such Claim; provided , however, that if any such Indemnified Party shall in its reasonable opinion consider that the retention of one joint counsel as aforesaid shall result in a conflict of interest, such Indemnified Party may, at the expense of the Borrower, select its own counsel to defend such Indemnified Party with respect to such Claim. The Indemnified Parties and the Borrower and their respective counsel shall cooperate with each other in all reasonable respects in any investigation, trial and defense of any such Claim and any appeal arising therefrom.

Section 1.03 Telephonic Notice . Without in any way limiting the Borrower’s obligation to confirm in writing any telephonic notice, the Collateral Manager may act without liability upon the basis of telephonic notice believed by the Collateral Manager in good faith to be from an Authorized Representative of the Borrower prior to receipt of written confirmation.

SERVICING RESPONSIBILITIES

The Borrower on behalf of each Loan Party shall be responsible for the following administration and servicing obligations (the “ Servicing Responsibilities ”) which shall be performed by the Borrower until such time as a successor servicer shall be designated and shall accept appointment pursuant to Section 3.04(b) of this Collateral Management Agreement:

(a) Servicing Standards and Activities . The Borrower agrees to administer and service its Receivables (i) within the parameters of services set forth in paragraph (b) of this Exhibit V , as such parameters may be modified by mutual written agreement of the Collateral Manager and the Borrower, (ii) in compliance at all times with applicable law and with this Collateral Management Agreements, covenants, objectives, policies and procedures set forth in this Collateral Management Agreement, and (iii) in accordance with industry standards for servicing healthcare receivables unless such standards conflict with the procedures set forth in paragraph (b) of this Exhibit V in which case the provisions of paragraph (b) shall control. The Borrower shall establish and maintain electronic data processing services for monitoring, administering and collecting the Receivables in accordance with the foregoing standards and shall, within three Business Days of the deposit of any checks, other forms of cash deposits, or other written matter into a Lockbox, post such information to its electronic data processing services.

(b) Parameters of Primary Servicing . The Servicing Responsibilities shall be performed within the following parameters:

(i) Subject to the review and authority of the Collateral Manager and the Agent and except as otherwise provided herein, the Borrower shall have full power and authority to take all actions that it may deem necessary or desirable, consistent in all material respects with its existing policies and procedures with respect to the administration and servicing of accounts receivable, in connection with the administration and servicing of its Receivables. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Borrower shall, in the performance of its servicing obligations hereunder, act in accordance with all legal requirements and subject to the terms and conditions of this Collateral Management Agreement.

(ii) During the continuance of an Event of Default, at the Collateral Manager’s request or the Agent’s request, all enforcement and collection proceedings with respect to the Receivables shall, unless prohibited by applicable law, be instituted and prosecuted in the name of the Collateral Agent.

(iii) No Borrower shall change in any material respect its existing policies and procedures with respect to the administration and servicing of accounts receivable (including, without limitation, the amount and timing of write-offs) without the prior written consent of the Collateral Manager (with contemporaneous written notice thereof (in reasonable detail) to the Agent).

Exhibit V-1

(iv) The Borrower will be responsible for monitoring and collecting the Receivables, including, without limitation, contacting Obligors that have not made payment on their respective Receivables within the customary time period for such Obligor, and resubmitting any claim rejected by an Obligor due to incomplete information.

(v) If the Borrower determines that a payment with respect to a Receivable has been received directly by a pharmacy or any other Person, the Borrower shall promptly advise the Collateral Manager, and the Collateral Manager shall be entitled to presume that the reason such payment was made to such pharmacy or other Person was because of a breach of representation or warranty in this Collateral Management Agreement with respect to such Receivable (such as, by way of example, the forms related to such Receivable not being properly completed so as to provide for direct payment by the Obligor to the applicable Borrower), unless such Borrower shall demonstrate that such is not the case. In the case of any such Receivable which is determined not to be a Denied Receivable, the Borrower shall promptly demand that such pharmacy or other Person remit and return such funds. If such funds are not promptly received by the applicable Borrower, the Borrower shall take all reasonable steps to obtain such funds.

(c) Termination of Servicing Responsibilities; Cooperation .

The Borrower shall otherwise cooperate fully with such successor servicer.

INTERFACE WITH COLLATERAL MANAGER

1. The Collateral Manager will convey appropriate data requirements and instructions to the Borrower to establish a computer interface between each Loan Party’s systems and the Collateral Manager’s receivables monitoring system. The interface will permit the Collateral Manager to receive electronically teach Loan Party’s accounts receivable data, including the Receivable Information, billing data and collection and other transaction data relating to the Receivables.

2. The Loan Parties shall give the Collateral Manager at least ten Business Days’ notice of any coding changes or electronic data processing system modifications made by such Borrower which could affect the Collateral Manager’s processing or interpretation of data received through the interface.

3. The Collateral Manager shall have no responsibility to return to the Loan Parties any information which the Collateral Manager receives pursuant to the computer interface.

4. The Borrower, on behalf of the Loan Parties, will prepare weekly accounts receivable data files of all transaction types for such Borrower’s sites that are included in the program. The weekly cutoff will occur at a predetermined time each week, and the weekly cutoff date for all of the sites must occur at exactly the same time. The cutoff date that will be selected will be at the end of business for a specific day of the week, or in other words, at the end of such Borrower’s transaction posting process for that day. The Borrower will temporarily maintain a copy of the accounts data files in the event that the data is degraded or corrupted during transmission, and needs to be re-transmitted.

5. The Collateral Manager will be responsible for the management of the hardware, communications and software used in the program.

6. The Collateral Manager’s data center will receive the Receivable files, and immediately confirm that the files have been passed without degradation or corruption of data by balancing the detailed items to the control totals that accompany the files. Any problems in this process will be immediately reported to the Borrower so that the Receivable file can be re-transmitted, if necessary.

7. Once the receipt of the Receivable data has been confirmed, the Collateral Manager will perform certain tests and edits to ensure that each Receivable meets the specified eligibility criteria. Compliance with concentration limits will be verified and the Collateral Manager will notify the Collateral Manager that the Eligible Receivables have been determined.

8. Each Loan Party’s sites will continue to post daily transactions to their respective Receivable files. Each Loan Party’s Receivable files for each of the eligible sites will include all transactions posted through that day. The Borrower will create a transaction report and a Receivable file for each of the eligible sites. The transaction report will contain all transactions posted to the respective site Receivable file for the specified period (and will indicate the

Exhibit VI-1

respective site and the number of items and total dollars on each transaction report for control purposes). The Receivable file will contain balances that reflect the transactions posted on the Loan Parties’s systems through the end of business of the specified period.

9. The Borrower will transmit the billing, transaction, and the most current Receivable data files to the Collateral Manager’s data center according to the established schedule. The Borrower should, again, maintain the backup of each of these files in the event that a re-transmission is necessary.

10. The Collateral Manager’s data center will confirm that the files have been received intact, and will immediately communicate any problems to the Borrower in order to initiate a re-transmission. The Collateral Manager will then post the transaction files to the accounts receivable for accounts that the Collateral Manager is maintaining, and consequently update the affected balances. Upon completion of the posting process, the Collateral Manager will generate summary reports of the posting process that the Collateral Manager will use to complete various funding activities. The Collateral Manager summary reports will reference the Loan Parties’s transaction codes and activity to codes that are common to the funding program.

11. The Collateral Manager will then compare the updated accounts balances on the Collateral Manager’s system to the corresponding account balances reflected on the Receivable file. The Collateral Manager expects that the balances for the funded Receivables will be congruent, and any discrepancies will be immediately examined and resolved through the cooperative effort of the Collateral Manager and the Loan Parties. The Collateral Manager shall produce discrepancy reports (e.g., “Funding Only” or “Out of Balance” reports) and the Borrower shall respond promptly to such reports.

12. Once the reconciliation process has been completed and any discrepancies between the Collateral Manager and the Loan Parties’s Receivable files resolved through the discrepancy report process described in paragraph 9 above, the Collateral Manager will then process the Receivable file and advise the Collateral Manager. The Collateral Manager will then proceed through exactly the same process described in paragraph 6 above.

(i) Each Pledgor hereby represents and warrants that (1) as of the date hereof, it has neither opened nor maintains any Securities Accounts or Commodity Accounts in which the amount and/or fair market value, individually or in the aggregate, of the financial assets and/or commodity contracts, as the case may be, held from time to time in all such accounts does not exceed $100,000, other than those listed on Schedule 16(c) to the Perfection Certificate, (2) as of the date hereof, each applicable Pledgor and the relevant Securities Intermediary or Commodity Intermediary have executed and delivered a Securities Account Control Agreement or Commodity Account Control Agreement, as applicable, for each Securities Account or Commodity Account listed on Schedule 16(c) to the Perfection Certificate, or the Pledgors have closed such accounts, (3) the Collateral Agent has a valid, enforceable, perfected first priority security interest (other than Permitted Liens) in such Securities Accounts and Commodity Accounts by Control, and (4) it does not hold, own or have any interest in any certificated securities or uncertificated securities other than those constituting Pledged Securities and those maintained in Securities Accounts or Commodity Accounts listed on Schedule 16(c) to the Perfection Certificate or in respect of which the Collateral Agent has Control. If any Pledgor shall at any time hold or acquire any certificated securities constituting Investment Property and having a fair market value, individually or in the aggregate, in excess of $100,000, such Pledgor shall promptly (and in any event within 5 Business Days of acquiring such security) (a) endorse, assign and deliver the same to

the Collateral Agent, accompanied by such instruments of transfer or assignment duly executed in blank, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent or (b) deliver such securities into a Securities Account with respect to which a Control Agreement is in effect in favor of the Collateral Agent. If any securities now or hereafter acquired by any Pledgor constituting Investment Property and having a fair market value, individually or in the aggregate, in excess of $100,000 are uncertificated and are issued to such Pledgor or its nominee directly by the issuer thereof, such Pledgor shall promptly (and in any event within 5 Business Days of acquiring such security) notify the Collateral Agent thereof and pursuant to an agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent, either (a) cause the issuer to agree to comply with Entitlement Orders or other instructions from the Collateral Agent as to such securities, without further consent of any Pledgor or such nominee, (b) cause a Security Entitlement with respect to such uncertificated security to be held in a Securities Account with respect to which the Collateral Agent has Control or (c) arrange for the Collateral Agent to become the registered owner of the securities. The Pledgors shall not hereafter establish and maintain any Securities Account or Commodity Account with any Securities Intermediary or Commodity Intermediary unless (1) the applicable Pledgor shall have given the Collateral Agent 30 days’ prior written notice of its intention to establish such new Securities Account or Commodity Account with such Securities Intermediary or Commodity Intermediary, (2) such Securities Intermediary or Commodity Intermediary shall be reasonably acceptable to the Collateral Agent and (3) such Securities Intermediary or Commodity Intermediary, as the case may be, and such Pledgor shall have duly executed and delivered a Control Agreement with respect to such Securities Account or Commodity Account, as the case may be. The Collateral Agent shall not give any Entitlement Orders or instructions or directions to any issuer of uncertificated securities, Securities Intermediary or Commodity Intermediary, and shall not withhold its consent to the exercise of any withdrawal or dealing rights by such Pledgor, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, or, after giving effect to any such investment and withdrawal rights, would occur. The provisions of this Section 3.4(e) shall not apply to any Financial Assets credited to a Securities Account for which the Collateral Agent is the Securities Intermediary. No Pledgor shall grant Control over any Investment Property to any person other than the Collateral Agent.

(ii) As between the Collateral Agent and the Pledgors, the Pledgors shall bear the investment risk with respect to the Investment Property and Pledged Securities, and the risk of loss of, damage to, or the destruction of the Investment Property and Pledged Securities, whether in the possession of, or maintained as a security entitlement or deposit by, or subject to the control of, the Collateral Agent, a Securities Intermediary, Commodity Intermediary, any Pledgor or any other person; provided, however , that nothing contained in this Section 3.4(e) shall release or relieve any Securities Intermediary or Commodity Intermediary of its duties and obligations to the Pledgors or any other person under any Control Agreement or under applicable Legal Requirements. Each Pledgor shall promptly pay all Charges and fees of whatever kind or nature with respect to the Investment Property and Pledged Securities pledged by it under this Agreement. In the event any Pledgor shall fail to make such payment contemplated in the immediately preceding sentence, the Collateral Agent may do so for the account of such Pledgor and the Pledgors shall promptly reimburse and indemnify the Collateral Agent from all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Collateral Agent under this Section 3.4(e) in accordance with Section 11.03 of the Credit Agreement.

(f) Electronic Chattel Paper and Transferable Records. If any amount, individually or in the aggregate, in excess of $100,000 or payable under or in connection with any of the Pledged Collateral is evidenced by any Electronic Chattel Paper or any “transferable record” (as that term is defined in Section 201 of the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, or in Section 16 of the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act as in effect in any relevant jurisdiction), the Pledgor acquiring such Electronic Chattel Paper or transferable record shall promptly (and in any event within 10 days of the acquisition thereof) notify the Collateral Agent thereof and shall take such action as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request to vest in the Collateral Agent control under Section 9-105 of the UCC of

such Electronic Chattel Paper or control under Section 201 of the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act or, as the case may be, Section 16 of the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act, as so in effect in such jurisdiction, of such transferable record. The Collateral Agent agrees with such Pledgor that the Collateral Agent will arrange, pursuant to procedures reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent and so long as such procedures will not result in the Collateral Agent’s loss of control, for the Pledgor to make alterations to the Electronic Chattel Paper or transferable record permitted under Section 9-105 of the UCC or, as the case may be, Section 201 of the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act or Section 16 of the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act for a party in control to allow without loss of control, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would occur after taking into account any action by such Pledgor with respect to such Electronic Chattel Paper or transferable record.

(g) Letter-of-Credit Rights. If any Pledgor is at any time a beneficiary under a Letter of Credit now or hereafter issued in favor of such Pledgor, other than a Letter of Credit issued pursuant to the Credit Agreement or a Letter of Credit that is a “supporting obligation” (as defined in Section 9-102 of the UCC) with respect to other Pledged Collateral, in an amount individually or in the aggregate in excess of $250,000, such Pledgor shall promptly (and in any event within 5 Business Days of becoming a beneficiary thereunder) notify the Collateral Agent thereof and such Pledgor shall, at the reasonable request of the Collateral Agent, pursuant to an agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent, either (i) arrange for the issuer and any confirmer or other nominated person of such Letter of Credit to consent to an assignment to the Collateral Agent of the proceeds of any drawing under the Letter of Credit or (ii) arrange for the Collateral Agent to become the transferee beneficiary of such Letter of Credit, with the Collateral Agent agreeing, in each case, that the proceeds of any drawing under the Letter of Credit are to be applied as provided in the Credit Agreement.

(h) Commercial Tort Claims . As of the date hereof, each Pledgor hereby represents and warrants that it holds no Commercial Tort Claims having a value reasonably believed by the Pledgors to be, individually or in the aggregate, in excess of $250,000, other than those (if any) listed on Schedule 15 to the Perfection Certificate. If any Pledgor shall at any time hold or acquire a Commercial Tort Claim having a value reasonably believed by the Pledgors to be, individually or in the aggregate, in excess of $50,000, such Pledgor shall promptly (and in any event within 5 Business Days of acquiring such Commercial Tort Claim) notify the Collateral Agent in a writing signed by such Pledgor of the brief details thereof and grant to the Collateral Agent in such writing a security interest therein and in the Proceeds thereof, all upon the terms of this Agreement, with such writing to be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent.

(i) Pledged Collateral in the Possession of a Third Party . If any Equipment or Inventory (other than Equipment or Inventory leased to a customer in the ordinary course of business) is in possession or control of any third party, including any warehouseman, landlord, lessor, bailee or agent, or any Key Location, the Pledgors shall notify the Collateral Agent thereof and notify the third party of the Collateral Agent’s security interest therein and obtain an acknowledgment (a “ Bailee Letter ”) from such third party that (i) it is holding the Equipment and Inventory for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and (ii) such party will comply with instructions from the Collateral Agent with respect to such Pledged Collateral, without further consent of any Pledgors.

SECTION 3.5 Joinder of Additional Guarantors . The Pledgors shall cause each Subsidiary Guarantor which, from time to time, after the date hereof shall be required to pledge any assets to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties pursuant to the Credit Agreement, (a) to execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent (i) a Joinder Agreement within 30 days after the date on which it was acquired or created (unless such Subsidiary shall have been designated an Unrestricted Subsidiary in accordance with Section 6.14 of the Credit Agreement) and (ii) a Perfection Certificate, in each case,

within 30 days after the date on which it was acquired or created (unless such Subsidiary shall have been designated an Unrestricted Subsidiary in accordance with Section 6.14 of the Credit Agreement) and/or (b) in the case of a Subsidiary organized outside of the United States required to pledge any assets to the Collateral Agent, to execute and deliver such documentation as the Collateral Agent shall reasonably request and, in each case, upon such execution and delivery, such Subsidiary shall constitute a “Guarantor” and a “Pledgor” for all purposes hereunder with the same force and effect as if originally named as a Guarantor and Pledgor herein. The execution and delivery of such Joinder Agreement shall not require the consent of any Pledgor hereunder. The rights and obligations of each Pledgor hereunder shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the addition of any new Guarantor and Pledgor as a party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

SECTION 3.6 Supplements; Further Assurances . Each Pledgor shall take such further actions, and execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent such additional assignments, agreements, supplements, powers and instruments, as the Collateral Agent may in its reasonable judgment deem necessary, wherever required by applicable Legal Requirements, in order to perfect, preserve and protect the security interest in the Pledged Collateral as provided herein and the rights and interests granted to the Collateral Agent hereunder, to carry into effect the purposes hereof or better to assure and confirm unto the Collateral Agent the Pledged Collateral or permit the Collateral Agent to exercise and enforce its rights, powers and remedies hereunder with respect to any Pledged Collateral. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Pledgor shall make, execute, endorse, acknowledge, file or refile and/or deliver to the Collateral Agent from time to time upon reasonable request such lists, descriptions and designations of the Pledged Collateral, copies of warehouse receipts, receipts in the nature of warehouse receipts, bills of lading, documents of title, vouchers, invoices, schedules, confirmatory assignments, supplements, additional security agreements, conveyances, financing statements, transfer endorsements, powers of attorney, certificates, reports and other assurances or instruments as the Collateral Agent shall reasonably request. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Collateral Agent may institute and maintain, in its own name or in the name of any Pledgor, such suits and proceedings as the Collateral Agent may be advised by counsel shall be necessary or expedient to prevent any impairment of the security interest in the Pledged Collateral or the perfection or priority thereof. If (x) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or (y) a landlord of any Pledgor shall provide notice of default under or termination of any lease to which a Pledgor is a party, if directed by the Collateral Agent, such Pledgor shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such landlord to agree (in a writing addressed to the Collateral Agent) to extend the time period provided by such landlord for the removal of Pledged Collateral from the leased premises for a period, and otherwise on terms and conditions, reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent; provided that, in connection therewith, no Pledgor shall agree, directly or indirectly, with any landlord to abandon any Pledged Collateral or waive or limit such Pledgor’s rights in any Pledged Collateral. All of the foregoing shall be at the sole cost and expense of the Pledgors.

Each Pledgor represents, warrants and covenants as follows:

SECTION 4.1 Title . Except for the security interest granted to the Collateral Agent for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties pursuant to this Agreement and Permitted Liens, such Pledgor owns (or either owns or has a License to, in the case of Intellectual Property) and, as to Pledged Collateral acquired by it from time to time after the date hereof, will either own or hold a License to the rights in each item of Pledged Collateral pledged by it hereunder free and clear of any and all Liens or claims of others (except Permitted Liens).

No person other than any Pledgor or the Collateral Agent has, or will have, control or possession of all or any part of the Pledged Collateral, except as expressly permitted by the Loan Documents.

SECTION 4.2 Validity of Security Interest . The security interest in and Lien on the Pledged Collateral granted to the Collateral Agent for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties hereunder constitutes (a) a legal and valid security interest in all the Pledged Collateral securing the payment and performance of the Secured Obligations, and (b) subject to the filings and other actions described in Schedule 1 hereto, a valid, enforceable, and except to the extent otherwise expressly permitted under Article III, perfected first priority security interest (other than Permitted Liens) in all the Pledged Collateral. The security interest and Lien granted to the Collateral Agent for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties pursuant to this Agreement in and on the Pledged Collateral will at all times constitute a valid, enforceable, and except to the extent otherwise expressly permitted under Article III, perfected, continuing first priority security interest therein, subject only to Permitted Liens.

SECTION 4.3 Defense of Claims; Transferability of Pledged Collateral . Each Pledgor shall, at its own cost and expense, use commercially reasonable efforts to defend title to the Pledged Collateral pledged by it hereunder and the security interest therein granted to the Collateral Agent and the priority thereof (subject to Permitted Liens) required hereunder against all claims and demands of all persons, at its own cost and expense, at any time claiming any interest therein adverse to the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party. There is no agreement that restricts the transferability of any material portion of the Pledged Collateral or otherwise materially impairs or conflicts with any Pledgor’s obligations or the rights of the Collateral Agent hereunder, and the Pledgors shall not enter into any agreement or take any other action that would restrict the transferability of any material portion of the Pledged Collateral or otherwise materially impair or conflict with any Pledgor’s obligations or the rights of the Collateral Agent hereunder.

SECTION 4.4 Other Financing Statements . No Pledgor has filed, nor authorized any third party to file (nor will there be) any valid or effective financing statement (or similar statement or instrument of registration under the law of any jurisdiction) covering or purporting to cover any interest of any kind in the Pledged Collateral other than financing statements and other statements and instruments relating to Permitted Liens. So long as any of the Secured Obligations remain unpaid and unperformed, no Pledgor shall execute, authorize or permit to be filed in any public office any financing statement (or similar statement or instrument of registration under the law of any jurisdiction) relating to any Pledged Collateral, except financing statements and other statements and instruments filed or to be filed in respect of and covering the security interests granted by such Pledgor to the holder(s) of Permitted Liens.

Agreement. Unless it shall have given the Collateral Agent prior written notice (in the form of an Officers’ Certificate), such Pledgor shall not change its chief executive office, place of business or its mailing address. If such Pledgor does not have an organizational identification number and later obtains one, such Pledgor shall forthwith notify the Collateral Agent of such organizational identification number. The Collateral Agent may rely on opinions of counsel as to whether any or all UCC financing statements of the Pledgors need to be amended as a result of any of the changes described in this Section 4.5 . If any Pledgor fails to provide information to the Collateral Agent about such changes on a timely basis, the Collateral Agent shall not be liable or responsible to any party for any failure to maintain a valid, enforceable, perfected security interest with the priority required hereunder in such Pledgor’s property constituting Pledged Collateral, for which the Collateral Agent needed to have information relating to such changes. The Collateral Agent shall have no duty to inquire about such changes if any Pledgor does not inform the Collateral Agent of such changes, the parties acknowledging and agreeing that it would not be feasible or practical for the Collateral Agent to search for information on such changes if such information is not provided by any Pledgor.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any location at which Equipment or Inventory, with a fair market value individually or in the aggregate in excess of $250,000, such Pledgor shall have taken all action reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent to maintain the perfection and priority (subject to Permitted Liens) of the security interest of the Collateral Agent in the Pledged Collateral intended to be granted hereby, including, to the extent required under Section 3.4(i) , obtaining waivers of landlord’s or warehousemen’s and/or bailee’s liens with respect to such new location, if applicable, and if reasonably requested by the Collateral Agent. Such Pledgor agrees to provide the Collateral Agent with prompt notice following the movement of any Equipment or Inventory, individually or in the aggregate with a fair market value in excess of $250,000, to any location other than one that is listed in Schedule 2(a), 2(b), 2(c) or 2(d) to the Perfection Certificate or a location within the continental United States in respect of which the requirements of Section 3.4(i) have been satisfied.

Pledged Interests or any Pledgor’s status as a partner or a member of any issuer of the Initial Pledged Interests.

SECTION 4.9 Consents, etc. No consent of any party (including equityholders or creditors of such Pledgor) and no consent, authorization, approval, license or other action by, and no notice to or filing with, any Governmental Authority or regulatory body or other person is required (A) for the exercise by the Collateral Agent of the voting or other rights provided for in this Agreement or (B) for the exercise by the Collateral Agent of the remedies in respect of the Pledged Collateral pursuant to this Agreement. In the event that the Collateral Agent desires to exercise any remedies, voting or consensual rights or attorney-in-fact powers set forth in this Agreement and determines it necessary to obtain any approvals or consents of any Governmental Authority or regulatory body or any other person therefor, then, upon the reasonable request of the Collateral Agent, each Pledgor agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts assist and aid the Collateral Agent to obtain as soon as practicable any necessary approvals or consents for the exercise of any such remedies, rights and powers.

SECTION 4.10 Pledged Collateral . All information set forth herein, including the schedules annexed hereto, and all information contained in any documents, schedules and lists heretofore delivered to any Secured Party, including the Perfection Certificate and the schedules thereto, in connection with this Agreement, in each case, relating to the Pledged Collateral, is accurate and complete in all material respects.

Each Pledgor may at its own expense contest the validity, amount or applicability of any Charges so long as the contest thereof shall be conducted in accordance with, and permitted pursuant to the provisions of, the Credit Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, (i) no contest of any such obligation may be pursued by such Pledgor if such contest would expose the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party to (A) any possible criminal liability or (B) any civil liability for failure to comply with such obligations unless such Pledgor shall have furnished, if reasonably requested by the Collateral Agent or any Lender, a bond or other security therefor reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent, or such Secured Party, as the case may be, and (ii) if at any time payment or performance of any obligation contested by such Pledgor pursuant to this Section 4.12 shall become necessary to prevent the imposition of remedies because of non-payment, such Pledgor shall pay or perform the same in sufficient time to prevent the imposition of remedies in respect of such default or prospective default.

SECTION 4.13 Access to Pledged Collateral, Books and Records; Other Information . Each Pledgor shall permit representatives of the Collateral Agent upon reasonable notice to visit and inspect any of its assets or properties, including to conduct any environmental assessments, sampling, testing or monitoring of the Mortgaged Property, and examine and make abstracts from any of its books and records (including insurance policies) at any reasonable time and upon reasonable notice. Such Pledgor shall, at any and all times, within a reasonable time after written request by the Collateral Agent, furnish or cause to be furnished to the Collateral Agent, in such manner and in such detail as may be reasonably requested by the Collateral Agent, additional information with respect to the Pledged Collateral.

(iii) Subject to clause (ix) below, Section 8.2 and Section 8.4, sell, assign, grant a license to use or otherwise liquidate, or direct any Pledgor to sell, assign, grant a license to use or otherwise liquidate, any and all investments made in whole or in part with the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof, and take possession of the proceeds of any such sale, assignment, license or liquidation;

Upon application to a court of equity having jurisdiction, the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to decree requiring specific performance by any Pledgor of such obligation;

The Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party or any of their respective Affiliates may be the purchaser, licensee, assignee or recipient of any or all of the Pledged Collateral at any such sale and shall be entitled, for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of the Pledged Collateral sold, assigned or licensed at such sale, to use and apply any of the Secured Obligations owed to such person as a credit on account of the purchase price of any Pledged Collateral payable by such person at such sale. Each purchaser, assignee, licensee or recipient at any such sale shall acquire the property sold, assigned or licensed absolutely free from any claim or right on the part of any Pledgor, and each Pledgor hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, all rights of redemption, stay and/or appraisal that it now has or may at any time in the future have under any Legal Requirement now existing or hereafter enacted.

Each Pledgor hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, any claims against the Collateral Agent arising by reason of the fact that the price at which any Pledged Collateral may have been sold, assigned or licensed at such a private sale was less than the price which might have been obtained at a public sale, even if the Collateral Agent accepts the first offer received and does not offer such Pledged Collateral to more than one offeree.

SECTION 8.2 Notice of Sale . Each Pledgor acknowledges and agrees that, to the extent notice of sale or other disposition of Pledged Collateral shall be required by any Legal Requirement, 10 days prior notice to such Pledgor of the time and place of any public sale or of the time after which any private sale or other intended disposition is to take place shall be commercially reasonable notification of

such matters unless the Pledged Collateral is perishable or threatens to decline speedily in value or is of a type customarily sold on a recognized market (in which case no such prior notice shall be required). No notification need be given to any Pledgor if it has signed, after the occurrence of an Event of Default, a statement renouncing or modifying any right to notification of sale or other intended disposition.

SECTION 8.3 Waiver of Notice and Claims; Other Waivers; Marshalling .

(i) Each Pledgor hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, notice of judicial hearing in connection with the Collateral Agent’s taking possession or the Collateral Agent’s disposition of any of the Pledged Collateral, including any and all prior notice and hearing for any prejudgment remedy or remedies and any such right which such Pledgor would otherwise have under any Legal Requirement, and each Pledgor hereby further waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements (i) all damages occasioned by such taking of possession, (ii) all other requirements as to the time, place and terms of sale or other requirements with respect to the enforcement of the Collateral Agent’s rights hereunder and (iii) all rights of redemption, appraisal, valuation, stay, extension or moratorium now or hereafter in force under any applicable Legal Requirements. The Collateral Agent shall not be liable for any incorrect or improper payment made pursuant to this Article VIII except to the extent resulting solely from the Collateral Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as finally judicially determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. Any sale of, or the grant of options to purchase, or any other realization upon, any Pledged Collateral shall operate to divest all right, title, interest, claim and demand, either at law or in equity, of the applicable Pledgor therein and thereto, and shall be a perpetual bar both at law and in equity or otherwise against such Pledgor and against any and all persons claiming or attempting to claim the Pledged Collateral so sold, optioned or realized upon, or any part thereof, from, through or under such Pledgor.

(ii) To the maximum extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, each Pledgor hereby waives demand, notice, protest, notice of acceptance of this Agreement, notice of Credit Extensions, Pledged Collateral received or delivered or any other action taken in reliance hereon and all other demands and notices of any description.

(iii) The Collateral Agent shall not be required to marshal any present or future collateral security (including the Pledged Collateral) for, or other assurances of payment of, the Secured Obligations or any of them or to resort to such collateral security or other assurances of payment in any particular order. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, (i) each Pledgor hereby agrees that it will not invoke any Legal Requirement relating to the marshalling of collateral and (ii) hereby irrevocably waives the benefits of all such Legal Requirements.

(iv) To the maximum extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, each Pledgor hereby waives any and all defenses and counterclaims it may have or could interpose in any such action or procedure brought by the Collateral Agent or any Lender to obtain an Order recognizing, and permitting the enforcement of, the collateral assignment or security interest and Lien of the Collateral Agent pursuant to the Security Documents in and to any Account or other Pledged Collateral and acknowledges that the Collateral Agent and/or the Lenders may (i) seek to obtain the consent of the applicable Medicare/Medicaid Account Debtor(s) to recognize, (ii) comply with any Legal Requirements necessary for the recognition of, or (iii) seek to obtain an Order recognizing, the collateral assignment or security interest and Lien of the Collateral Agent pursuant to the Security Documents in and to all Accounts and other Pledged Collateral payable by Medicare/Medicaid Account Debtors.

SECTION 8.4 Standards for Exercising Rights and Remedies . To the extent that applicable Legal Requirements impose duties on the Collateral Agent to exercise remedies in a commercially reasonable manner, each Pledgor acknowledges and agrees that it is not commercially unreasonable for

the Collateral Agent, in the exercise of such remedies in accordance with all other terms hereof, (i) to fail to incur expenses reasonably deemed significant by the Collateral Agent to prepare Pledged Collateral for disposition or otherwise to fail to complete raw material or work in process into finished goods or other finished products for disposition, (ii) to fail to obtain third party consents for access to Pledged Collateral to be disposed of, or to obtain or, if not required by other Legal Requirements, to fail to obtain consents for Governmental Authorities or third parties for the collection or disposition of Pledged Collateral to be collected or disposed of, (iii) to fail to exercise collection remedies against account debtors or other persons obligated on Pledged Collateral or to fail to remove liens or encumbrances on or any adverse claims against Pledged Collateral, (iv) to exercise collection remedies against account debtors and other persons obligated on Pledged Collateral directly or through the use of collection agencies and other collection specialists, subject to their compliance with applicable Legal Requirements, (v) to advertise dispositions of Pledged Collateral through publications or media of general circulation, whether or not the Pledged Collateral is of a specialized nature, (vi) to contact other persons, whether or not in the same business as any Pledgor, for expressions of interest in acquiring all or any portion of the Pledged Collateral, (vii) to hire one or more professional auctioneers to assist in the disposition of Pledged Collateral, whether or not the collateral is of a specialized nature, (viii) to dispose of Pledged Collateral by utilizing internet sites that provide for the auction of assets of the types included in the Pledged Collateral or that have the reasonable capability of doing so, or that match buyers and sellers of assets, (ix) to dispose of assets in wholesale rather than retail markets, (x) to disclaim or modify disposition warranties, (xi) to purchase insurance or credit enhancements to insure the Collateral Agent against risks of loss, collection or disposition of Pledged Collateral or to provide to the Collateral Agent a guaranteed return from the collection or disposition of Pledged Collateral, or (xii) to the extent deemed appropriate by the Collateral Agent, to obtain the services of other brokers, investment bankers, consultants and other professionals to assist the Collateral Agent in the collection or disposition of any of the Pledged Collateral. The Pledgors acknowledge that the purpose of this Section 8.4 is to provide non-exhaustive indications of what actions or omissions by the Collateral Agent would fulfill the Collateral Agent’s duties under the UCC or other Legal Requirement of the State or any other relevant jurisdiction in the Collateral Agent’s exercise of remedies against the Pledged Collateral and that other actions or omissions by the Collateral Agent shall not be deemed to fail to fulfill such duties solely on account of not being indicated in this Section 8.4 . Without limiting the foregoing, nothing contained in this Section 8.4 shall be construed to grant any rights to any Pledgor or to impose any duties on the Collateral Agent that would not have been granted or imposed by this Agreement or by applicable Legal Requirements in the absence of this Section 8.4 .

SECTION 8.5 Certain Sales of Pledged Collateral .

(i) Each Pledgor recognizes that, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in Legal Requirements, the Collateral Agent may be compelled, with respect to any sale of all or any part of the Pledged Collateral, to limit purchasers to those who meet the requirements of a Governmental Authority. Each Pledgor acknowledges that any such sales may be at prices and on terms less favorable to the Collateral Agent than those obtainable through a public sale without such restrictions, and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such restricted sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner and that, except as may be required by applicable Legal Requirements, the Collateral Agent shall have no obligation to engage in public sales.

(ii) Each Pledgor recognizes that, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “ Securities Act ”), and applicable state securities’ laws, the Collateral Agent may be compelled, with respect to any sale or disposition of all or any part of the Securities Collateral and Investment Property, to limit purchasers to persons who will agree, among other things, to acquire such Securities Collateral or Investment Property for their own account, for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. Each Pledgor acknowledges that any such

private sales may be at prices and on terms less favorable to the Collateral Agent than those obtainable through a public sale without such restrictions (including a public offering made pursuant to a registration statement under the Securities Act), and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such private sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner and that the Collateral Agent shall have no obligation to engage in public sales and no obligation to delay the sale of any Securities Collateral or Investment Property for the period of time necessary to permit the issuer thereof to register it for a form of public sale requiring registration under the Securities Act or under applicable state securities laws, even if such issuer would agree to do so.

(iii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Pledgor shall, upon the occurrence and during the continuing of any Event of Default, at the request of the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties, cause any registration, qualification under or compliance with any federal or state securities law or laws to be effected with respect to all or any part of the Securities Collateral as soon as practicable and at the sole cost and expense of the Pledgors. Each Pledgor will cause such registration to be effected (and be kept effective) and cause such qualification and compliance to be effected (and be kept effective) as may be so requested and as would permit or facilitate the sale and distribution of such Securities Collateral including registration under the Securities Act (or any similar statute then in effect), appropriate qualifications under applicable blue sky or other state securities laws and appropriate compliance with all other requirements of any Governmental Authority. Each Pledgor shall cause the Collateral Agent to be kept advised in writing as to the progress of each such registration, qualification or compliance and as to the completion thereof, shall furnish to the Collateral Agent such number of prospectuses, offering circulars or other documents incident thereto as the Collateral Agent from time to time may request, and shall indemnify and shall cause the issuer of the Securities Collateral to indemnify the Collateral against all claims, losses, damages and liabilities caused by any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained therein (or in any related registration statement, notification or the like) or by any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein (or in any related registration statement, notification or the like) a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not materially misleading.

(iv) If the Collateral Agent determines to exercise its right to sell any or all of the Securities Collateral or Investment Property, upon written request, the applicable Pledgor shall, and shall cause each issuer of Securities Collateral and Investment Property to be sold hereunder to, from time to time furnish to the Collateral Agent all such information as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request in order to determine the number and nature or interest, of securities or other instruments included in the Securities Collateral or Investment Property which may be sold by the Collateral Agent as exempt transactions under the Securities Act and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission thereunder, as the same are from time to time in effect.

(v) Each Pledgor further agrees that a breach of any of the covenants contained in this Section 8.5 will cause irreparable injury to the Collateral Agent and other Secured Parties, that the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties have no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breach and, as a consequence, that each and every covenant contained in this Section 8.5 shall be specifically enforceable against such Pledgor, and such Pledgor hereby waives and agrees not to assert any defenses against an action for specific performance of such covenants.

SECTION 8.6 No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies .

(i) No failure on the part of the Collateral Agent to exercise, no course of dealing with respect to, and no delay on the part of the Collateral Agent in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or remedy hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other

right, power or remedy; nor shall the Collateral Agent be required to look first to, enforce or exhaust any other security, collateral or guaranties. The remedies herein provided are cumulative and are not exclusive of any remedies provided by applicable Legal Requirements, in equity or otherwise.

(ii) In the event that the Collateral Agent shall have instituted any proceeding to enforce any right, power or remedy under this Agreement by foreclosure, sale, entry or otherwise, and such proceeding shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason or shall have been determined adversely to the Collateral Agent, then and in every such case, the Pledgors, the Collateral Agent and each other Secured Party shall be restored to their respective former positions and rights hereunder with respect to the Pledged Collateral, and all rights, remedies and powers of the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties shall continue as if no such proceeding had been instituted.

SECTION 8.7 Certain Additional Actions Regarding Intellectual Property . If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, upon the written demand of the Collateral Agent, each Pledgor shall execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent an assignment or assignments of the registered Intellectual Property Collateral or such other documents as are necessary or appropriate to carry out the intent and purposes hereof; provided, however, that if the Event of Default is no longer continuing, the Collateral Agent shall promptly execute and deliver to each Pledgor such reassignments or other documents necessary to place such Pledgors in control and ownership of such Intellectual Property Collateral.

Each Secured Party, by its acceptance of the benefits hereof, agrees that it shall have no right individually to realize upon any of the Pledged Collateral hereunder, it being understood and agreed by such Secured Party that all rights and remedies hereunder may be exercised solely by the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. The Collateral Agent may employ agents and attorneys-in-fact in connection herewith and shall not be liable for the

negligence or misconduct of any such agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it in good faith, excepting therefrom, however, their gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Collateral Manager shall be deemed an agent of the Collateral Agent for the purposes of giving effect to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the Collateral Agent shall not be liable, under any circumstances, for the negligence (including gross negligence) or misconduct (including wilful misconduct) of the Collateral Manager. The Collateral Agent may resign and a successor Collateral Agent may be appointed in the manner provided in the Credit Agreement. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as the Collateral Agent by a successor Collateral Agent, that successor Collateral Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Collateral Agent under this Agreement, and the retiring Collateral Agent shall thereupon be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement. After any retiring Collateral Agent’s resignation, the provisions hereof shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it under this Agreement while it was the Collateral Agent.

(ii) Except for the exercise of reasonable care in the custody of any Pledged Collateral in its possession and the accounting for moneys actually received by it hereunder, the Collateral Agent shall have no duty as to any Pledged Collateral or as to the taking of any necessary steps to preserve rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining to any Pledged Collateral. The Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Pledged Collateral in its possession if such Pledged Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equivalent to that which the Collateral Agent, in its individual capacity, accords its own property consisting of similar instruments or interests; provided that neither the Collateral Agent nor any of the other Secured Parties nor any of their respective directors, officers, employees or agents shall have responsibility for (x) ascertaining or taking action with respect to calls, conversions, exchanges, maturities, tenders or other matters relating to any Securities Collateral, whether or not the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party has or is deemed to have knowledge of such matters (y) failing to demand, collect or realize upon all or any part of the Pledged Collateral or for any delay in doing so or (z) failing to take any necessary steps to preserve rights against any person with respect to any Pledged Collateral.

(iii) The Collateral Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any written notice, statement, certificate, order or other document or any telephone message believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper person, and, with respect to all matters pertaining to this Agreement and its duties hereunder, upon advice of counsel selected by it.

(iv) If any item of Pledged Collateral also constitutes collateral granted to the Collateral Agent under any other deed of trust, mortgage, security agreement, pledge or instrument of any type, in the event of any conflict between the provisions hereof and the provisions of such other deed of trust, mortgage, security agreement, pledge or instrument of any type in respect of such collateral, the Collateral Agent, in its sole discretion, shall select which provision or provisions shall control.

SECTION 10.2 Collateral Agent May Perform; Collateral Agent Appointed Attorney-in-Fact . If any Pledgor shall fail to perform any covenants contained in this Agreement (including such Pledgor’s covenants to (i) pay the premiums in respect of all required insurance policies hereunder, (ii) pay Charges, (iii) make repairs or (iv) discharge Liens or pay or perform any obligations of such Pledgor under any Pledged Collateral) or if any representation or warranty on the part of any Pledgor contained herein shall be breached, the Collateral Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) do the same or cause it to be done or remedy any such breach, and may expend funds for such purpose; provided, however , that the Collateral Agent shall in no event be bound to inquire into the validity of any tax, lien, imposition or other obligation which such Pledgor fails to pay or perform as and when required hereby and which such Pledgor does not contest in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.12 . Any and all

amounts so expended by the Collateral Agent shall be paid by the Pledgors in accordance with the provisions of Section 11.03 of the Credit Agreement. Neither the provisions of this Section 10.2 nor any action taken by the Collateral Agent pursuant to the provisions of this Section 10.2 shall prevent any such failure to observe any covenant contained in this Agreement nor any breach of representation or warranty from constituting an Event of Default. Each Pledgor hereby appoints the Collateral Agent its attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the place and stead of such Pledgor and in the name of such Pledgor, or otherwise, from time to time in the Collateral Agent’s reasonable discretion to take any action and to execute any instrument consistent with the terms of the Credit Agreement, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents which the Collateral Agent reasonably may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes hereof. The foregoing grant of authority is a power of attorney coupled with an interest and such appointment shall be irrevocable for the term hereof. Each Pledgor hereby ratifies all that such attorney shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof.

SECTION 10.3 Continuing Security Interest; Assignment . This Agreement shall create a continuing security interest in the Pledged Collateral and shall (i) be binding upon the Pledgors, their respective successors and assigns and (ii) inure, together with the rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent hereunder, to the benefit of the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties and each of their respective successors, transferees and assigns. No other persons (including any other creditor of any Pledgor) shall have any interest herein or any right or benefit with respect hereto (except for Permitted Liens. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing clause (ii), any Secured Party may assign or otherwise transfer any obligations held by it secured by this Agreement to any other person, and such other person shall thereupon become vested with all the benefits in respect thereof granted to such Secured Party, herein or otherwise, subject however, to the provisions of the Credit Agreement and any Hedging Agreement.

SECTION 10.4 Termination; Release . This Agreement shall terminate and the Pledged Collateral shall be released from the Lien of this Agreement when the Commitments have been terminated and the principal of and interest and premium (if any) on each Loan, all Fees and all other expenses or amounts payable under any Loan Document shall have been paid in full (other than contingent indemnification obligations that, pursuant to the provisions of the Credit Agreement of the Security Documents, survive the termination thereof) and all Letters of Credit have been canceled or have expired and all amounts drawn thereunder have been reimbursed in full. Upon termination hereof, the security interests granted hereby shall terminate and all rights to the Pledged Collateral shall revert to the applicable Pledgor or to such other person as may be entitled thereto pursuant to any Order or other applicable Legal Requirement. Upon termination hereof or any release of Pledged Collateral in accordance with the provisions of the Credit Agreement, the Collateral Agent shall promptly (and in any event within 10 Business Days), upon the written request and at the sole cost and expense of the Pledgors, assign, transfer and deliver to the Pledgors, against receipt and without recourse to or warranty by the Collateral Agent except that the Collateral Agent has not assigned or otherwise transferred its security interest in the Pledged Collateral, such of the Pledged Collateral to be released (in the case of a release) as may be in possession or control of the Collateral Agent and as shall not have been sold or otherwise applied pursuant to the terms hereof, and, with respect to any other Pledged Collateral, proper documents and instruments (including UCC-3 termination statements or releases) acknowledging the termination hereof or the release of such Pledged Collateral, as the case may be.

SECTION 10.5 Modification in Writing . No amendment, modification, supplement, termination or waiver of or to any provision hereof, nor consent to any departure by any Pledgor therefrom, shall be effective unless the same shall be made in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement and unless in writing and signed by the Collateral Agent. Any amendment, modification or supplement of or to any provision hereof, any waiver of any provision hereof and any consent to any departure by any Pledgor from the terms of any provision hereof shall be effective only in the specific

instance and for the specific purpose for which made or given. Except where notice is specifically required by this Agreement, no notice to or demand on any Pledgor in any case shall entitle any Pledgor to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.

SECURITIES ACCOUNT CONTROL AGREEMENT

This SECURITIES ACCOUNT CONTROL AGREEMENT (this “ Control Agreement ”), dated as of [ ___, 20___], by and between [ ], a [ ] [ ] (the “ Pledgor ”), Jefferies Finance LLC (the “ Collateral Agent ”) as collateral agent for the lenders (the “ Lenders ”) party to that certain credit agreement dated as of March 25, 2010 among the Pledgor, certain of the Pledgor’s affiliates, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time in accordance with its terms, the “ Credit Agreement ”) and [ ] in its capacity as a “securities intermediary” (as defined in Section 8-102 of the UCC) (the “ Financial Institution ”), is delivered pursuant to the Credit Agreement and the Security Agreement (as defined in the Credit Agreement). This Control Agreement is for the purpose of perfecting the security interests of the Collateral Agent granted by the Pledgor in the Designated Accounts (as defined below). All references herein to the “UCC” shall mean the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect from time to time in the State of New York. Terms used but not defined herein that are defined in the Credit Agreement shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Credit Agreement.

1. Confirmation of Establishment and Maintenance of Designated Account . The Financial Institution hereby confirms that (i) the Financial Institution has established for the Pledgor and maintains the account(s) listed on Schedule 1 attached hereto (such account(s), together with each such other account maintained by the Pledgor with the Financial Institution collectively, the “ Designated Accounts ” and each a “ Designated Account ”), and (ii) each Designated Account is a “securities account” as such term is defined in Article 8 of the UCC.

2. Control . The Collateral Agent shall at all times have “control” (as defined in Section 8-106 of the UCC) of any Designated Account; provided that unless and until delivery by the Collateral Agent of Notice of Sole Control pursuant to Section 7(i) hereof to the Financial Institution, the Pledgor shall have the right from time to time to write checks against and make withdrawals from and transfers of amounts in the Designated Accounts. From and after delivery by the Collateral Agent of Notice of Sole Control pursuant to Section 7(i) hereof to the Financial Institution until such time as the Collateral Agent delivers written notice to the Financial Institution rescinding such Notice of Sole Control (such period, the “ Activation Period ”), the Financial Institution shall comply solely with entitlement orders (as defined in Section 8-102(a)(8) of the UCC) and instructions originated by the Collateral Agent without further consent of the Pledgor or any person or entity acting or purporting to act for the Pledgor being required, including, without limitation, directing disposition of the financial assets in each Designated Account. Prior to and after the end of any Activation Period, the Financial Institution shall be entitled to honor the Pledgor’s instructions and directions with respect to any transfer or withdrawal of financial assets from the Designated Accounts.

3. Subordination of Lien; Waiver of Set-Off . In the event that the Financial Institution has or subsequently obtains by agreement, operation of law or otherwise a security interest in any Designated Account, the Financial Institution hereby agrees that such security interest shall be subordinate to that of the Secured Parties. The financial assets credited to any Designated Account will not be subject to deduction, set-off, banker’s lien, or any other right in favor of any person or entity other than the Secured Parties (except that the Financial Institution may set off (i) all amounts due to the Financial Institution in respect of its customary fees and expenses for the routine maintenance and operation of the Designated


^1.		Insert applicable Loan Party.

Securities Account Control Agreement Page 1

Accounts, including overdraft fees, and (ii) the face amount of any checks or other items which have been credited to any Designated Account but are subsequently returned unpaid because of uncollected or insufficient funds).

4. Choice of Law . Both this Control Agreement and the Designated Account(s) shall be governed by the law of the State of New York. Regardless of any provision in any other agreement, for purposes of the UCC, New York shall be deemed to be the “security intermediary’s jurisdiction” (within the meaning of Section 8-110 of the UCC) and the Designated Account(s) shall be governed by the law of the State of New York.

5. Conflict with Other Agreements; Amendments . As of the date hereof, there are no other agreements entered into between the Financial Institution and the Pledgor with respect to any Designated Account or any financial assets credited thereto (other than standard and customary documentation with respect to the establishment and maintenance of such Designated Accounts). The Financial Institution and the Pledgor will not enter into any other agreement with respect to any Designated Account unless the Collateral Agent shall have received prior written notice thereof. The Financial Institution and the Pledgor will not enter into any other agreement with respect to “control” of the Designated Accounts without the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent acting in its sole discretion. In the event of any conflict with respect to “control” over any Designated Account between this Control Agreement (or any portion hereof) and any other agreement now existing or hereafter entered into, the terms of this Control Agreement shall prevail. No amendment or modification of this Control Agreement or waiver of any right hereunder shall be binding on any party hereto unless it is in writing and is signed by all the parties hereto.

6. Notice of Adverse Claims . Except for the claims and interest of the Secured Parties and of the Pledgor in the Designated Account(s), the Financial Institution on the date hereof does not know of any claim to, or security interest in, any Designated Account or in any financial assets credited thereto and does not know of any claim that any person or entity other than the Collateral Agent has been given “control” of any Designated Account or any such financial assets. If any person or entity asserts any lien, encumbrance or adverse claim (including any writ, garnishment, judgment, warrant of attachment, execution or similar process and any claim of “control ^” ) against any financial assets credited to any Designated Account, the Financial Institution will promptly notify the Collateral Agent and the Pledgor thereof.

7. Maintenance of Designated Accounts . In addition to, and not in lieu of, the obligation of the Financial Institution agreed in Section 2 hereof, the Financial Institution agrees to maintain the Designated Accounts as follows:

(i) Notice of Sole Control . Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, the Collateral Agent may deliver to the Financial Institution a notice of sole control in substantially the form set forth in Exhibit A attached hereto (the “ Notice of Sole Control ” ) with respect to any Designated Account. If at any time the Collateral Agent delivers a Notice of Sole Control to the Financial Institution, the Financial Institution agrees that, after receipt of such notice, it will take all entitlement orders and other instruction with respect to such Designated Account solely from the Collateral Agent. Without limiting the generality of the first sentence of this paragraph, upon receipt of a Notice of Sole Control, the Financial Institution shall follow all instructions given by the Collateral Agent, including, without limitation, instructions for distribution or transfer of any financial assets in any Designated Account to be made to the Collateral Agent. No later than 5 Business Days after such Event of Default shall have ceased to exist in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement, the Collateral Agent shall deliver written notice to the Financial Institution rescinding the applicable Notice of Sole Control.

The Financial Institution will promptly provide to the Collateral Agent and to the Pledgor, upon the Collateral Agent’s request therefor from time to time and, in any event as of the last Business Day of each calendar month, a statement of the cash balance and financial assets in each Designated Account.

(iii) all property credited to any Designated Account will be treated as “financial assets,” as such term is defined in Section 8-102 of the UCC;

(iv) this Control Agreement is the valid and legally binding obligation of the Financial Institution, enforceable against the Financial Institution in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject to general principles of equity, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law;

(v) the Financial Institution has not entered into any agreement with any person or entity pursuant to which it has agreed to comply with any entitlement orders or instructions with respect to any Designated Account other than the Collateral Agent. Until the termination of this Control Agreement, the Financial Institution will not, without the written approval of the Collateral Agent, enter into any agreement with any person or entity pursuant to which it agrees to comply with any orders or instructions of such person with respect to any Designated Account; and

(vi) the Financial Institution has not entered into any other agreement with the Pledgor or either Agent purporting to limit or condition the obligation of the Financial Institution to comply with any orders or instructions with respect to any Designated Account as set forth in Section 2 hereof.

LOCKBOX AGREEMENT

[Date]

Ladies and Gentlemen:

1. [NAME OF BANK], (“ Bank ”) is advised that [ ] ¹² , a [ ] [ ] (the “ Pledgor ”) has entered into (i) that certain credit agreement, dated as of March 25, 2010 (as amended, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the Credit Agreement ”), by and among BioScrip, Inc., each of the guarantors listed on the signature pages thereto, the lenders from time to time party thereto and the several agents party thereto, including Jefferies Finance LLC, as collateral agent (in such capacity, the “ Collateral Agent ”) and (ii) that certain Security Agreement, dated as of March 25, 2010 (as amended, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “ Security Agreement ”), pursuant to which the Pledgor has granted to the Collateral Agent a first priority security interest in, among other things, the accounts receivable of the Pledgor and all proceeds thereof. In connection with the above-referenced financing arrangements, the Pledgor has agreed that all collections and proceeds of the Pledgor’s accounts receivable and other remittances made by account debtors in payment of accounts receivable of the Pledgor be made to a lockbox and remitted in kind to the Collateral Agent. Terms used but not defined herein that are defined in the Credit Agreement shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Credit Agreement.

2. The Pledgor and Bank hereby confirm to the Collateral Agent that post office box number under the sole dominion and control of the Pledgor (the “ Lockbox ”) has been established by the Pledgor and that Bank will have complete access to the items deposited in the Lockbox at all times. The parties hereto agree and acknowledge that the Lockbox is established solely for the purpose of receiving all checks and other forms of payment, amounts and cash from the Medicare and Medicaid programs and other governmental healthcare payors (“ Governmental Payors ”). ¹³ The Pledgor and Bank hereby represent and warrant to the Collateral Agent that a special, separate account number under the sole dominion and control of the Pledgor (the “ Lockbox Account ”) has been established solely for the purpose of (i) depositing checks and all other forms of payment, amounts and cash received in the Lockbox, and (ii) receiving electronic fund transfers from Governmental Payors. All fees, costs and expenses charged by Bank for the Lockbox and the Lockbox Account shall be in accordance with Bank’s customary practices and shall be payable by the Pledgor. Except as expressly provided for elsewhere in this Lockbox Agreement (this “ Agreement ”), the Collateral Agent shall not bear any responsibility for such amounts.

3. The Pledgor hereby directs Bank to take the necessary steps to process for the collection and deposit into the Lockbox Account any and all checks, items and forms of payment or other cash items that are acceptable for collection through the Federal Reserve System and all items of payment received or at any time that are in the Lockbox (collectively, “ Checks ”) on at least a daily basis on each Business Day, in accordance with Section 10 below. For purposes of this Agreement, a “ Business Day ” is any day other than a Saturday, Sunday or other day on which Bank is or is authorized or required by law to be closed. Bank acknowledges that the Pledgor has granted the Collateral Agent a first priority lien against and security interest in and to, and the Pledgor hereby affirms that it grants such lien and security interest


¹²		Insert applicable Loan Party.

¹³		NOTE: Discuss post-closing items.

Lockbox Agreement Page 1

to the Collateral Agent in and to, the Lockbox, Lockbox Account and all Checks, amounts, cash, funds and other items from time to time in the Lockbox and/or in Lockbox Account, and all remittances and the proceeds thereof, and Bank hereby waives any and all rights of setoff or banker’s lien or other like or similar right it may now have or hereafter acquire against or with respect to the Pledgor or any of the foregoing, except with respect to (i) any returned or uncollected Checks originally deposited into the Lockbox Account to the extent that the Collateral Agent received value for such Checks, or (ii) to the Bank’s customary service charges that are directly and solely related to the Lockbox and/or Lockbox Account. The Pledgor agrees that all Governmental Payors have been, or will be, instructed by the Pledgor to remit all items to be processed through the Lockbox to the P.O. Box address for the Lockbox, or, if payments are made electronically, to make such payments directly to the Lockbox Account. The Pledgor shall immediately forward all payments and amounts that it receives from Governmental Payors to the Lockbox. Each remittance will be processed pursuant to this Agreement (subject to Bank’s right to forward such item to the Collateral Agent for inspection and instructions before such item is processed).

4. (a) All proceeds of Checks deposited in the Lockbox Account from time to time, together with all other funds, amounts, payments and cash received by the Bank in the Lockbox, the Lockbox Account or otherwise from Governmental Payors of the Pledgor via wire transfer, ACH or otherwise, shall be held for the benefit of and subject to the first priority lien and security interest of the Collateral Agent in such Checks and other items and proceeds of such Checks and other items, and, without limiting any other provision of this Agreement, all such proceeds shall be available for transfer to the Collateral Agent in accordance with this Agreement.

(b) The processing of Checks for collection by Bank is subject to the same terms and conditions that apply to deposits of Checks received directly from business customers for deposit in Bank’s regular demand deposit accounts.

(c) Withdrawals or transfers from the Lockbox Account shall not at any time exceed the collected or available funds in the Lockbox Account, as determined by Bank’s current availability schedule. If, however, there is any transfer from the Lockbox Account to the Concentration Account (as defined below) that exceeds the collected or available funds at the end of a Business Day, then Bank may reduce any following day’s transfer total by the amount of any returned or uncollected Checks so long as notice of such reduction is given to the Collateral Agent and the Pledgor concurrently with such reduction. In all instances, the Pledgor shall remain liable to Bank for such returned or uncollected Checks. In no instance shall Bank reduce any day’s collections to the Lockbox Account, or transfers from such account to the Concentration Account, due to any activity or returned or uncollected items arising out of or in connection with any other account of the Pledgor at Bank or obligation of the Pledgor to Bank.

(d) If the Pledgor fails to reimburse Bank for such returned or uncollected Checks and the available funds in the Lockbox Account and all other separate account(s) of the Pledgor are insufficient for such reimbursement, then (after Bank has exhausted its efforts to collect such funds from the Pledgor) the Collateral Agent will indemnify and hold Bank harmless only for the amount of any returned or uncollected Checks and only to the extent that the Collateral Agent received payment in respect of such Checks; provided that no such indemnification shall be required to the extent that the amounts giving rise to such indemnification claim resulted from the negligence or willful misconduct of Bank as finally judicially determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. Such indemnity shall be paid by the Collateral Agent paying to Bank the amount of the returned or uncollected Checks.

5. The Pledgor shall pay the charges in effect from time to time of Bank for the performance of the services set forth in this Agreement and for any other charges in connection with this Agreement. Bank’s charges shall be billed directly to the Pledgor in accordance with its normal practice. Charges, fees or other obligations of the Pledgor due to Bank for services provided by Bank, other than those

Lockbox Agreement Page 2

directly and solely related to the Lockbox and/or the Lockbox Account, may not in any event be debited to the Lockbox Account or Concentration Account or items in the Lockbox.

6. Subject to applicable federal and state law, the Pledgor hereby irrevocably makes, constitutes and appoints Bank (and all persons designated by Bank for that purpose) as the Pledgor’s true and lawful attorney and agent-in-fact to endorse the Pledgor’s name on all Checks payable to any the Pledgor (or any reasonable variation of their names) with the endorsement “Credit to the account of within named payee without prejudice.” Bank’s appointment as agent to endorse such Checks is for the specific, limited and restricted purpose of endorsement for deposit as described above and at no time shall be interpreted as authorizing Bank as such agent to commit the Pledgor or the Collateral Agent to acceptance of any legend of any kind, nature or description appearing on such Checks.

7. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in the Loan Documents or otherwise, Bank shall not offset, charge, deduct or otherwise withdraw funds from the Lockbox and/or Lockbox Account, except as expressly permitted hereunder, until it has been advised in writing by the Collateral Agent that all of the Pledgor’s obligations under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents are indefeasibly paid in full in cash and the commitments under the Credit Agreement are terminated.

8. Bank will exercise ordinary care in the performance of its services under this Agreement, and shall be liable to the Collateral Agent or the Pledgor only for losses caused by the negligence or willful misconduct of Bank or its agents, directors, officers or employees. Each of the Pledgor and the Collateral Agent agree that Bank shall not be liable for any damage or loss to it for any delay or failure in performance arising out of the acts or omissions of any third parties, including, but not limited to, various communications services, courier services, the Federal Reserve System, any other bank or any third party that may be affected by funds transactions, fire, mechanical, computer or electrical failures or other unforeseen contingencies, strikes or any similar or dissimilar cause beyond the reasonable control of Bank.

IN ANY EVENT, BANK WILL NOT BE DEEMED TO BE OBLIGATED, LIABLE OR ACCOUNTABLE UPON OR UNDER ANY GUARANTY, REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY, EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, ARISING BY OPERATION OF LAW OR OTHERWISE, INCLUDING THE WARRANTY OF FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR USE, IN ANY MANNER OR FORM BEYOND THE OBLIGATIONS, REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES EXPRESSLY MADE IN THIS AGREEMENT. THE PLEDGOR AND THE COLLATERAL AGENT AGREE THAT IN NO EVENT SHALL BANK BE LIABLE FOR LOSS OF PROFITS, INDIRECT, SPECIAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, EVEN IF BANK IS SPECIFICALLY ADVISED OR AWARE OF SUCH POSSIBILITY.

9. It is understood that the services contemplated by this Agreement are provided as a convenience to the Pledgor. In consideration thereof, the Pledgor shall indemnify and hold each of Bank and the Collateral Agent harmless from any and all liability, claims, losses, and demands whatsoever, including, without limitation, reasonable legal fees and expenses, however arising or incurred, because of or in connection with Bank’s performance of this Agreement and the transfer of funds contemplated under this Agreement, except those arising directly as a result of Bank’s or the Collateral Agent’s or their respective agents, directors, officers or employees’, as applicable, negligence or willful misconduct as finally judicially determined by a court of competent jurisdiction.

10. The Pledgor hereby directs Bank to, and the Pledgor and Bank hereby agree that, on each Business Day (and without requiring further consent by the Pledgor or any other person or entity) Bank shall (i) open the mail delivered to the Lockbox and deposit on a daily basis all Checks and other forms of payment, funds, cash and other items contained therein into the Lockbox Account and (ii) wire transfer to the Collateral Agent in immediately available funds all funds and amounts on deposit in the Lockbox Account as of the close of the immediately preceding Business Day, including without limitation, all

Exhibit 10.3

FIRST AMENDMENT, dated as of March 25, 2010 (as it may be amended, modified or supplemented from time to time, this “ First Amendment ”) to the PRIME VENDOR AGREEMENT made as of July 1, 2009 (the “ Existing Prime Vendor Agreement ”) between AmerisourceBergen Drug Corporation (“ ABDC ”) and Bioscrip, Inc., BioScrip Infusion Services, Inc., Chonimed LLC, Los Feliz Drugs Inc., Bioscrip Pharmacy Inc. and Bradhurst Specialty Pharmacy, Inc., Bioscrip Pharmacy (NY), Inc., Bioscrip PMB Services, LLC, Natural Living Inc., Bioscrip Infusion Services, LLC, Bioscrip Nursing Services, LLC, Bioscrip Infusion Management, LLC, and Bioscrip Pharmacy Services, Inc. (severally and collectively sometimes hereinafter referred to and obligated as “ Customer ”). Terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Existing Prime Vendor Agreement.

ABDC and Customer have agreed to amend the Existing Prime Vendor Agreement, confirm the liability of each of the undersigned as a “Customer” under such agreement and modify the scope of the security interest in the collateral granted therein. Accordingly, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, hereby further covenant and agree as follows:

1. Joinder and Assumption .

(a) Each of the undersigned hereby join in, assume and agree to be bound by all terms, covenants and conditions set forth in the Existing Prime Vendor Agreement, as hereby amended (the same, as it may be further amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “ PVA ”), as if each of the undersigned were originally a party to the PVA. Accordingly, effective immediately, each of the undersigned is and shall be deemed a Customer under the PVA and all related instruments, agreements and documents.

(b) Each of the undersigned agrees to (i) cause each subsidiary or affiliate of the undersigned which may from and after the date hereof be acquired or formed by any of the undersigned to likewise join in, assume and agree to be bound by all terms, covenants and conditions set forth in the PVA and thereby become a Customer under the PVA and all related instruments, agreements and documents, and (ii) execute and/or deliver such instruments, agreements and documents as ABDC may reasonably require to effectuate the intents and objects of this provision and the PVA and all related instruments, agreements and documents.

(c) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each other of the undersigned grant, affirm and/or reaffirm (and shall cause each subsidiary or affiliate of the undersigned which may be acquired or formed by any of the undersigned to grant) a lien on and security interest in and to the Collateral (as hereinafter defined) by joining in and agreeing to be bound by the terms, covenants and conditions set forth in the PVA.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 1 of this PVA, the joinder of a Customer and the execution and exchange of documentation in connection therewith shall not be required with respect to any affiliate or subsidiary that is a party to a contract with a vendor of Inventory of a type which is available for purchase from ABDC until lawful termination of such contract; provided, however, that the undersigned and/or any such subsidiary or affiliate shall terminate (or cause termination of) such contract in accordance with its terms as quickly as commercially reasonable, without penalty, damages or other costs to such affiliate or subsidiary for such termination so that such affiliate or subsidiary may join in the PVA as soon after such termination as practicable.

2. Amendment to Section 9.2 of Exhibit 3 . Section 9.2 of Exhibit 3 to the Existing Prime Vendor Agreement is hereby amended by (i) deleting such provision in its entirety, and (ii) substituting therefor the following new Section 9.2:

9.2 Security Interest . Without limiting the generality of the joinder in and to the PVA and assumption of liabilities and obligations of Customer, to secure all of Customer’s existing and future debts, liabilities and obligations to ABDC, Customer hereby grants to ABDC a lien upon and security interest in all of Customer’s Inventory, Accounts and Proceeds and products thereto and thereof, wherever located, now owned or hereafter acquired or arising (“ Collateral ”). All capitalized terms used herein and not defined have the meaning in the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in any jurisdiction in which any of the Collateral may at the time be located (the “ UCC ”). Customer hereby authorizes ABDC to file UCC financing statements describing the Collateral in all such jurisdictions as ABDC deems appropriate. Customer agrees it will not make sales, leases or other dispositions of any of the Collateral except in the ordinary course of business of Customer without the prior, written consent of ABDC. Customer hereby authorizes ABDC to do such other and further things as ABDC deems reasonably necessary or appropriate to achieve the purposes of this Paragraph.

3. Governing Law . All questions concerning the validity or meaning of this First Amendment, and the Existing Prime Vendor Agreement as amended by this First Amendment or relating to the rights and obligations of the parties with respect to the performance hereunder or hereunder shall be construed and resolved under the laws of the State of New York, except to the extent that UCC provides for the application of the laws of the states of organization with respect to the perfection, priority and enforceability of the Collateral.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have had a duly authorized officer execute this First Amendment to the Prime Vendor Agreement as of the date first listed above.
