CREDIT AGREEMENT

THIS CREDIT AGREEMENT (this “ Agreement ”), is entered into as of March 20, 2019, by and among the lenders identified on the signature pages hereof (each of such lenders, together with its successors and permitted assigns, is referred to hereinafter as a “ Lender ”, as that term is hereinafter further defined), Cantor Fitzgerald Securities, as administrative agent for the Lenders (in such capacity, together with its successors and assigns in such capacity, “ Agent ”) and Egalet Corporation, a Delaware corporation  (the “ Borrower ”).

WHEREAS, capitalized terms used in the preamble hereto and in these Recitals shall have the respective meanings set forth for such terms in Schedule 1.1;

WHEREAS, the Borrower has requested that the Lenders provide a revolving credit facility and the Lenders are willing to do so on the terms and conditions set forth herein; and

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements herein contained and other good and valuable consideration, the sufficiency and receipt of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

1.                                       DEFINITIONS AND CONSTRUCTION.

1.1.                             Definitions .  Capitalized terms used in this Agreement shall have the meanings specified therefor on Schedule 1.1.

1.2.                             Accounting Terms .  All accounting terms not specifically defined herein shall be construed in accordance with GAAP; provided, that (i) if the Borrower notifies Agent that the Borrower requests an amendment to any provision hereof to eliminate the effect of any Accounting Change occurring after the Closing Date or in the application thereof on the operation of such provision (or if Agent notifies the Borrower that the Required Lenders request an amendment to any provision hereof for such purpose), regardless of whether any such notice is given before or after such Accounting Change or in the application thereof, then Agent and the Borrower agrees that they will negotiate in good faith amendments to the provisions of this Agreement that are directly affected by such Accounting Change with the intent of having the respective positions of the Lenders and the Borrower after such Accounting Change conform as nearly as possible to their respective positions as of the date of this Agreement and, until any such amendments have been agreed upon and agreed to by the Required Lenders, the provisions in this Agreement shall be calculated as if no such Accounting Change had occurred, and (ii) to the extent expressly required pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, certain calculations shall be made on a pro forma basis.  When used herein, the term “financial statements” shall include the notes and schedules thereto.  Whenever the term “ Borrower ” is used in respect of a financial covenant or a related definition, it shall be understood to mean Borrower and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis, unless the context clearly requires otherwise.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, (a) all financial statements delivered hereunder shall be prepared, and all financial covenants contained herein shall be calculated, without giving effect to any election under the Financial Accounting Codification Section 825-10 (or any similar accounting principle) permitting a Person to value its financial liabilities or Indebtedness at the fair value thereof, and (b) the term “unqualified opinion” as used herein to refer to opinions or reports provided by accountants shall mean an opinion or report that is (i) unqualified, and (ii) does not include any explanation, supplemental comment, or other comment concerning the ability of the applicable Person to continue as a going concern or concerning the scope of the audit.  Notwithstanding

any other provision contained herein, any change in GAAP that would require an operating lease to be treated as a capital lease should not be given effect hereunder.

1.3.                             Code .  Any terms used in this Agreement that are defined in the Code shall be construed and defined as set forth in the Code unless otherwise defined herein; provided, that to the extent that the Code is used to define any term herein and such term is defined differently in different Articles of the Code, the definition of such term contained in Article 9 of the Code shall govern.

1.4.                             Construction .  Unless the context of this Agreement or any other Loan Document clearly requires otherwise, references to the plural include the singular, references to the singular include the plural, the terms “includes” and  “including” are not limiting, and the term “or” has, except where the context otherwise requires, the inclusive meaning represented by the phrase “and/or.”  The words “hereof,” “herein,” “hereby,” “hereunder,” and similar terms in this Agreement or any other Loan Document refer to this Agreement or such other Loan Document, as the case may be, as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement or such other Loan Document, as the case may be.  Section, subsection, clause, schedule, and exhibit references herein are to this Agreement unless otherwise specified.  Any reference in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document to any agreement, instrument, or document shall include all alterations, amendments, changes, extensions, modifications, renewals, replacements, substitutions, joinders, and supplements, thereto and thereof, as applicable (subject to any restrictions on such alterations, amendments, changes, extensions, modifications, renewals, replacements, substitutions, joinders, and supplements set forth herein).  The words “asset” and “property” shall be construed to have the same meaning and effect and to refer to any and all tangible and intangible assets and properties.  Any reference herein or in any other Loan Document to the satisfaction, repayment, or payment in full of the Obligations shall mean (a) the indefeasible payment or repayment in full in cash of (i) the principal amount of, and interest accrued and unpaid with respect to, all outstanding Loans, together with the payment of any premium applicable to the repayment of the Loans, (ii) all Lender Group Expenses that have accrued and are unpaid regardless of whether demand has been made therefor, (iii) all fees or charges that have accrued hereunder or under any other Loan Document (including the Unused Line Fee and the Utilization Fee) and are unpaid, (b) the receipt by Agent of cash collateral in order to secure any other contingent Obligations for which a claim or demand for payment has been made on or prior to such time or in respect of matters or circumstances known to Agent or a Lender at such time that are reasonably expected to result in any loss, cost, damage, or expense (including attorneys’ fees and legal expenses), such cash collateral to be in such amount as Agent reasonably determines is appropriate to secure such contingent Obligations, (c) the payment or repayment in full in cash of all other outstanding Obligations other than unasserted contingent indemnification Obligations and (d) the termination of all of the Commitments of the Lenders.  Any reference herein to any Person shall be construed to include such Person’s successors and permitted assigns.  Any requirement of a writing contained herein or in any other Loan Document shall be satisfied by the transmission of a Record.  Any reference to any law shall include all statutory and regulatory provisions consolidating, amending, replacing or interpreting such law and any reference to any law, rule or regulation shall, unless otherwise specified, refer to such law, rule or regulation as amended, modified or supplemented from time to time.  Any references in this Agreement to “ Articles ” and/or “ Sections ” which make reference to any particular piece of legislation or statute, including without limitation, Bankruptcy Code, ERISA, IRC and/or the Code shall for greater certainty mean the equivalent section in the applicable piece of legislation to the extent that the context implies reference to such other similar or equivalent legislation as is in effect from time to time in any other applicable jurisdiction, as applicable.  Furthermore, where any such reference is meant to apply to such other similar or equivalent legislation where such other similar or equivalent legislation has parallel or like concepts, then such references shall import such parallel or like concepts from such other similar or equivalent legislation, as applicable.

1.6.                             Schedules and Exhibits .  All of the schedules and exhibits attached to this Agreement shall be deemed incorporated herein by reference.

1.7.                             Divisions .  For all purposes under the Loan Documents, in connection with any division or plan of division under Delaware law (or any comparable event under a different jurisdiction’s laws): (a) if any asset, right, obligation or liability of any Person becomes the asset, right, obligation or liability of a different Person, then it shall be deemed to have been transferred from the original Person to the subsequent Person, and (b) if any new Person comes into existence, such new Person shall be deemed to have been organized on the first date of its existence by the holders of its Equity Interests at such time.

(a)                                  Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and prior to the Maturity Date, each Revolving Lender agrees (severally, not jointly or jointly and severally) to make revolving loans denominated in Dollars (“ Revolving Loans ”) to the Borrower in an aggregate amount (after giving effect to such Revolving Loan) at any one time outstanding not to exceed such Lender’s Revolver Commitment.

(b)                                  On the Closing Date, the Borrower shall borrow the Minimum Draw Amount  and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, an amount equal to the Minimum Draw Amount shall be outstanding at all times prior to the Maturity Date, unless otherwise repaid pursuant to Section 2.4(e).

(c)                                   Amounts in excess of the Minimum Draw Amount borrowed pursuant to this Section 2.1 may be repaid and, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, reborrowed at any time prior to the Maturity Date.  The outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Loans, together with interest accrued and unpaid thereon, shall be due and payable on the Maturity Date or, if earlier, on the date on which they are declared due and payable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

2.2.                             [Reserved] .

2.3.                             Borrowing Procedures and Settlements .

(a)                                  Procedure for Borrowing Revolving Loans.   Each Borrowing shall be made by a written request in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B-1 (a “ Notice of Borrowing ”) by an Officer of the applicable Borrower delivered to Agent and received by Agent no later than 2:00 p.m. (x) on the Business Day that is three (3) Business Days prior to the requested Funding Date for any Borrowing of a Base Rate Loan and (y) on the Business Day that is three (3) Business Days prior to the requested Funding Date for any Borrowing of a LIBOR Rate Loan, specifying, in each case, (A) the amount of such Borrowing, and (B) the requested Funding Date (which shall be a Business Day); provided , that (i) a

3

Notice of Borrowing in respect of any Borrowing to be made on the Closing Date may be delivered no later than 5:00 p.m. on the Business Day prior to the Closing Date and (ii) Agent may, at the direction of the Required Lenders in their sole discretion, elect to accept as timely requests that are received later than 2:00 p.m. on the applicable Business Day. At Agent’s election, in lieu of delivering the above-described written request, any Officer of the applicable Borrower may give Agent telephonic notice of such request by the required time.  In such circumstances, the Borrower agrees that any such telephonic notice will be confirmed in writing within one (1) Business Day of the giving of such telephonic notice, but the failure to provide such written confirmation shall not affect the validity of the request.  The Borrowing of any LIBOR Rate Loan shall be subject to the provisions of Section 2.12.

(b)                                  [Reserved]

(c)                                   Making of Revolving Loans.

(i)                                      If a Revolving Loan is requested, then after receipt of a request for a Borrowing pursuant to Section 2.3(a) , Agent shall promptly notify the Lenders by telecopy, telephone, email, or other electronic form of transmission, of the requested Borrowing; provided that the borrowing of any LIBOR Rate Loans shall be subject to the provisions of Section 2.12 ; provided that no Notice of Borrowing shall be delivered to any Lender during the hours of 9:00 a.m. through 4:00 p.m., New York City time, on any Business Day.  Each Lender shall make the amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the requested Borrowing available to Agent in immediately available funds, to Agent’s Account, not later than 2:00 p.m. on the Business Day that is the requested Funding Date.  After Agent’s receipt of the proceeds of such Revolving Loans from the Lenders, Agent shall make the proceeds thereof available to the applicable Borrower on the applicable Funding Date by transferring immediately available funds equal to such proceeds received by Agent to a Designated Account; provided , that, no Lender shall have an obligation to make any Revolving Loan, if one or more of the applicable conditions precedent set forth in Section 3 will not be satisfied on the requested Funding Date for the applicable Borrowing unless such condition has been waived.

(ii)                                   Unless Agent receives notice from a Lender prior to 2:00 p.m. on the Business Day that is the requested Funding Date relative to a requested Borrowing as to which Agent has notified the Lenders of a requested Borrowing that such Lender will not make available as and when required hereunder to Agent for the account of the Borrower the amount of that Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Borrowing, Agent may assume that each Lender has made or will make such amount available to Agent in immediately available funds on the Funding Date and Agent may (but shall not be so required), in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount.  If, on the requested Funding Date, any Lender shall not have remitted the full amount that it is required to make available to Agent in immediately available funds and if Agent has made available to the Borrower such amount on the requested Funding Date, then such Lender shall make the amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the requested Borrowing available to Agent in immediately available funds, to Agent’s Account, no later than 11:00 a.m. on the Business Day that is the first Business Day after the requested Funding Date (in which case, the interest accrued on such Lender’s portion of such Borrowing for the Funding Date shall be for Agent’s separate account).  If any Lender shall not remit the full amount that it is required to make available to Agent in immediately available funds as and when required hereby and if Agent has made available to the Borrower such amount, then that Lender shall be obligated to immediately remit such amount to Agent, together with interest at the Defaulting Lender Rate for each day until the date on which such amount is so remitted.  A notice submitted by Agent to any Lender with respect to amounts owing under this Section 2.3(c)(ii)  shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.  If the amount that a Lender is required to remit is made available to Agent, then such payment to Agent shall constitute such Lender’s Revolving Loan for all purposes of this Agreement.  If such amount is not made available to Agent on the Business Day following the Funding Date, Agent will notify the Borrower of

4

such failure to fund and, upon demand by Agent, the Borrower shall pay such amount to Agent for Agent’s account, together with interest thereon for each day elapsed since the date of such Borrowing, at a rate per annum equal to the interest rate applicable at the time to the Revolving Loans composing such Borrowing.

(d)                                  [Reserved].

(e)                                   [Reserved].

(f)                                    Notation.  Agent, as a non-fiduciary agent for the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices in New York a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register showing the names and addresses of each Lender, the principal amount (and stated interest) of the Loans owing to each Lender and the interests therein of each Lender, from time to time. The entries in such register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Agent, and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(g)                                   Defaulting Lenders .  Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2.4(b)(ii) , Agent shall not be obligated to transfer to a Defaulting Lender any payments made by the Borrower to Agent for the Defaulting Lender’s benefit or any proceeds of Collateral that would otherwise be remitted hereunder to the Defaulting Lender, and, in the absence of such transfer to the Defaulting Lender, Agent shall transfer any such payments (A) first, to each Non-Defaulting Lender ratably in accordance with their Commitments (but, in each case, only to the extent that such Defaulting Lender’s portion of a Revolving Loan (or other funding obligation) was funded by such other Non-Defaulting Lender), (B) to a suspense account maintained by Agent, the proceeds of which shall be retained by Agent and may be made available to be re-advanced to or for the benefit of Borrower (upon the request of Borrower and subject to the conditions set forth in Section 3.2 ) as if such Defaulting Lender had made its portion of Revolving Loans hereunder, and (C) from and after the date on which the Commitments are cancelled or terminated and all other Obligations have been paid in full, to such Defaulting Lender in accordance with tier (L) of Section 2.4(b)(ii) .  Subject to the foregoing, Agent may hold and re-lend to the Borrower for the account of such Defaulting Lender the amount of all such payments received and retained by Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender.  Solely for the purposes of voting or consenting to matters with respect to the Loan Documents (including the calculation of Pro Rata Share in connection therewith) and for the purpose of calculating the fee payable under Section 2.10(b) , such Defaulting Lender shall be deemed not to be a “ Lender ” and such Lender’s Commitment shall be deemed to be zero; provided , that the foregoing shall not apply to any of the matters governed by Section 14.1(a)(i)  through (iii) .  The provisions of this Section 2.3(g)  shall remain effective with respect to such Defaulting Lender until the earlier of (y) the date on which all of the Non-Defaulting Lenders, Agent, and Borrower shall have waived, in writing, the application of this Section 2.3(g)  to such Defaulting Lender, or (z) the date on which such Defaulting Lender makes payment of all amounts that it was obligated to fund hereunder, pays to Agent all amounts owing by Defaulting Lender in respect of the amounts that it was obligated to fund hereunder, and, if requested by Agent, provides adequate assurance to Agent of its ability to perform its future obligations hereunder.  The operation of this Section 2.3(g)  shall not be construed to increase or otherwise affect the Commitment of any Lender, to relieve or excuse the performance by such Defaulting Lender or any other Lender of its duties and obligations hereunder, or to relieve or excuse the performance by the Borrower of its duties and obligations hereunder to Agent or to the Lenders other than such Defaulting Lender.  Any failure by a Defaulting Lender to fund amounts that it was obligated to fund hereunder shall constitute a material breach by such Defaulting Lender of this Agreement and shall entitle the Borrower, at their option, upon written notice to Agent, to arrange for a substitute Lender to assume the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender, such substitute Lender to be reasonably acceptable to Agent.

5

In connection with the arrangement of such a substitute Lender, the Defaulting Lender shall have no right to refuse to be replaced hereunder, and agrees to execute and deliver a completed form of Assignment and Acceptance in favor of the substitute Lender (and agrees that it shall be deemed to have executed and delivered such document if it fails to do so) subject only to being paid its share of the outstanding Obligations; provided , that any such assumption of the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender shall not be deemed to constitute a waiver of any of the Lender Groups’ or the Borrower’s rights or remedies against any such Defaulting Lender arising out of or in relation to such failure to fund.  In the event of a direct conflict between the priority provisions of this Section 2.3(g)  and any other provision contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, it is the intention of the parties hereto that such provisions be read together and construed, to the fullest extent possible, to be in concert with each other.  In the event of any actual, irreconcilable conflict that cannot be resolved as aforesaid, the terms and provisions of this Section 2.3(g)  shall control and govern.

(h)                                  Independent Obligations.   All Revolving Loans shall be made by the Lenders contemporaneously and in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares.  It is understood that (i) no Lender shall be responsible for any failure by any other Lender to perform its obligation to make any Revolving Loan (or other extension of credit) hereunder, nor shall any Commitment of any Lender be increased or decreased as a result of any failure by any other Lender to perform its obligations hereunder, and (ii) no failure by any Lender to perform its obligations hereunder shall excuse any other Lender from its obligations hereunder.

2.4.                             Payments; Reductions of Commitments; Prepayments .

(a)                                  Payments by the Borrower .

(i)                                      Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments made or remitted by the Borrower under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall be made to Agent’s Account for the account of the Lender Group and shall be made in immediately available funds, no later than 2:00 p.m. on the date specified herein.  Any payment received by Agent later than 2:00 p.m. shall be deemed to have been received (unless Agent, at the direction of the Required Lenders in their sole discretion, elects to credit it on the date received) on the following Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue until such following Business Day.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Agent may require that any payments due under this Agreement be made in the United States.

(ii)                                   Unless Agent receives notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Lenders that the Borrower will not make such payment in full as and when required, Agent may assume that the Borrower has made (or will make) such payment in full to Agent on such date in immediately available funds and Agent may (but shall not be so required), in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to each Lender on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such Lender.  If and to the extent the Borrower do not make such payment in full to Agent on the date when due, each Lender severally shall repay to Agent on demand such amount distributed to such Lender, together with interest thereon at the Defaulting Lender Rate for each day from the date such amount is distributed to such Lender until the date repaid; provided that such interest shall be an obligation of the Borrower and shall be payable by the Borrower upon demand.

(b)                                  Apportionment and Application .

(i)                                      So long as no Application Event has occurred and is continuing and except as otherwise provided herein with respect to Defaulting Lenders, all principal and interest payments received by Agent shall be apportioned ratably among the Lenders (according to the unpaid

6

principal balance of the Obligations to which such payments relate held by each Lender) and all payments of fees and expenses received by Agent (other than fees or expenses that are for Agent’s separate account) shall be apportioned ratably among the Lenders having a Pro Rata Share of the type of Commitment or Obligation to which a particular fee or expense relates.  Subject to Section 2.4(b)(iv) , Section 2.4(d) , and Section 2.4(e) , all payments to be made hereunder by Borrower shall be remitted to Agent and all such payments, and all proceeds of Collateral received by Agent, shall be applied, so long as no Application Event has occurred and is continuing and except as otherwise provided herein with respect to Defaulting Lenders, to reduce the balance of the Revolving Loans outstanding and, thereafter, to Borrower (to be wired to a Designated Account) or such other Person entitled thereto under applicable law.

(ii)                                   At any time that an Application Event has occurred and is continuing and except as otherwise provided herein with respect to Defaulting Lenders, all payments remitted to Agent and all proceeds of Collateral received by Agent shall be applied as follows:

(A)                                first , to pay any Lender Group Expenses (including cost or expense reimbursements) or indemnities then due to Agent from the Loan Parties under the Loan Documents, until paid in full,

(B)                                second , to pay any fees or premiums then due to Agent from the Loan Parties under the Loan Documents until paid in full,

(C)                                third , ratably, to pay any Lender Group Expenses (including cost or expense reimbursements) or indemnities then due to any of the Lenders from the Loan Parties under the Loan Documents, until paid in full,

(D)                                fourth , ratably, to pay any fees or premiums then due to any of the Lenders under the Loan Documents until paid in full,

(E)                                 fifth , ratably, to pay interest accrued in respect of the Revolving Loans until paid in full,

(F)                                  sixth , ratably to pay the principal of all Revolving Loans until paid in full,

(G)                                seventh , to pay any other Obligations other than Obligations owed to Defaulting Lenders,

(H)                               eighth , ratably to pay any Obligations owed to Defaulting Lenders; and

(I)                                    ninth , to the Borrower (to be wired to a Designated Account) or such other Person entitled thereto under applicable law.

(iii)                                Agent promptly shall distribute to each Lender, pursuant to the applicable wire instructions received from each Lender in writing, such funds as it may be entitled to receive, subject to a Settlement delay as provided in Section 2.3(e) .

(iv)                               In each instance, so long as no Application Event has occurred and is continuing, Section 2.4(b)(ii)  shall not apply to any payment made by the Borrower to Agent and specified by the Borrower to be for the payment of specific Obligations then due and payable (or prepayable) under any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

7

(v)                                  For purposes of Section 2.4(b) , “paid in full” of a type of Obligation means payment in cash or immediately available funds of all amounts owing on account of such type of Obligation, including interest accrued after the commencement of any Insolvency Proceeding, default interest, interest on interest, and expense reimbursements, irrespective of whether any of the foregoing would be or is allowed or disallowed in whole or in part in any Insolvency Proceeding.

(vi)                               In the event of a direct conflict between the priority provisions of this Section 2.4 and any other provision contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, it is the intention of the parties hereto that such provisions be read together and construed, to the fullest extent possible, to be in concert with each other.  In the event of any actual, irreconcilable conflict that cannot be resolved as aforesaid, if the conflict relates to the provisions of Section 2.3(g)  and this Section 2.4 , then the provisions of Section 2.3(g)  shall control and govern, and if otherwise, then the terms and provisions of this Section 2.4 shall control and govern.

(c)                                   Termination of Commitments. The Revolver Commitments shall terminate automatically on the Maturity Date.

(d)                                  Optional Prepayments; Optional Commitment Reduction .

(i)                                      Subject to Section 2.1(b), the Borrower may prepay the principal of any Revolving Loan at any time in whole or in part, without premium or penalty.

(ii)                                   Upon the prior written notice, which may be conditional in accordance with Section 3.5, to the Agent (which notice the Agent shall promptly transmit to each of the Revolving Lenders), the Borrower shall have the right, without premium or penalty, on any day, permanently to terminate or reduce the unused Revolver Commitments in whole or in part; provided that (x) any such reduction shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their Pro Rata Share of the Revolver Commitments, (y) any partial reduction shall be in an aggregate amount of at least $1,000,000 or any whole multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof and (z) all Unused Line Fees accrued until the effective date of any termination of Revolver Commitments shall be paid on the effective date of such termination.

(e)                                   Mandatory Prepayments; Mandatory Commitment Reductions.

(i)                                      In the event that at any time, the Revolver Usage on such date exceeds the Maximum Revolver Amount, the Borrower shall, within three (3) Business Days prepay the Obligations in an aggregate amount equal to the amount of such excess in accordance with Section 2.4(f) .  On or prior to the date of any mandatory prepayment required to be made pursuant to this Section 2.4(e)(i), the Borrower shall provide written notice to Agent of the amount of such prepayment, the Loans to which the same will be applied, and calculations therefor (in reasonable detail).

(ii)                                   In the event that the Loan Parties or any of their Subsidiaries receive any Net Proceeds from a Disposition (other than to a Loan Party) of any Material Asset, then the Revolver Commitments shall be reduced automatically in an amount equal to the Net Proceeds of such Disposition and, if after giving effect to such reduction the aggregate Revolver Usage exceeds the Maximum Revolver Amount, the Borrower shall repay the Revolving Loans in an aggregate amount equal to the amount of such excess within five (5) Business Days of such receipt. Each repayment of the Loans and reduction of the Revolver Commitments shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their Pro Rata Share of the Revolver Commitments.

8

(f)                                    Application of Payments.  Each prepayment of Loans pursuant to Section 2.4(e)  shall, (A) so long as no Application Event shall have occurred and be continuing, be applied to the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Loans until paid in full, and (B) if an Application Event shall have occurred and be continuing, be applied in the manner set forth in Section 2.4(b)(ii) .

2.5.                             Promise to Pay; Promissory Notes .

(a)                                  The Borrower agrees to pay the Lender Group Expenses thirty (30) days after the date on which demand therefor is made by Agent.  The Borrower promises to pay all of the Obligations (including principal, interest, premiums, if any, fees, costs, and expenses (including Lender Group Expenses)) in full on the Maturity Date or, if earlier, on the date on which the Obligations become due and payable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.  The Borrower agrees that its obligations contained in the first sentence of this Section 2.5(a)  shall survive payment or satisfaction in full of all other Obligations.

(b)                                  Any Lender may request that any portion of its Commitments or the Loans made by it be evidenced by one or more promissory notes.  In such event, the Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Lender the requested promissory notes payable to the order of such Lender in a form furnished by Agent and reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower.  Thereafter, the portion of the Commitments and Loans evidenced by such promissory notes and interest thereon shall at all times be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form payable to the order of the payee named therein.

2.6.                             Interest Rates:  Rates, Payments, and Calculations .

(a)                                  Interest Rates.  Except as provided in Section 2.6(c) , all Loans that have been borrowed hereunder pursuant to the terms hereof shall bear interest (from the date of incurrence through but excluding the date of repayment or prepayment (whether by acceleration or otherwise)) as follows:

(i)                                      if the relevant Loan is a LIBOR Rate Loan, at a per annum rate equal to the LIBOR Rate plus the LIBOR Rate Margin, and

(d)                                  Payment.   Except to the extent provided to the contrary in this Section 2.6 , Section 2.10 or Section 2.12(a) , (i) all fees payable hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents shall be due and payable, in arrears, on the first day of each month and (ii) all costs and expenses payable hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents, and all Lender Group Expenses shall be due and payable thirty (30) days after the date on which demand therefor is made by Agent.  All amounts (including interest, fees, costs, expenses, Lender Group Expenses, or other amounts payable hereunder or

9

under any other Loan Document) payable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall constitute Obligations hereunder.

(e)                                   Computation.  All interest and fees payable under the Loan Documents shall be computed on the basis of (i) in the case of LIBOR Rate Loans and all other computations of fees and interest (other than in a case of a Base Rate Loan), a 360 day year and (ii) in the case of Base Rate Loans, a 365 day year (or a 366 day year, in the case of a leap year), in each case, for the actual number of days elapsed in the period during which the interest or fees accrue. In the event the Base Rate is changed from time to time hereafter, the rates of interest hereunder based upon the Base Rate automatically and immediately shall be increased or decreased by an amount equal to such change in the Base Rate.

(f)                                    Intent to Limit Charges to Maximum Lawful Rate.  In no event shall the interest rate or rates payable under this Agreement, plus any other amounts paid in connection herewith, exceed the highest rate permissible under any law that a court of competent jurisdiction shall, in a final determination, deem applicable.  The Borrower and the Lender Group, in executing and delivering this Agreement, intend legally to agree upon the rate or rates of interest and manner of payment stated within it; provided , that, anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, if such rate or rates of interest or manner of payment exceeds the maximum allowable under applicable law, then, ipso facto , as of the Closing Date, the Borrower is and shall be liable only for the payment of such maximum amount as is allowed by law, and payment received from the Borrower in excess of such legal maximum, whenever received, shall be applied to reduce the principal balance of the Obligations to the extent of such excess.

2.7.                             Crediting Payments .  The receipt of any payment item by Agent shall not be required to be considered a payment on account unless such payment item is a wire transfer of immediately available federal funds made to Agent’s Account or unless and until such payment item is honored when presented for payment.  Should any payment item not be honored when presented for payment, then the Borrower shall be deemed not to have made such payment and interest shall be calculated accordingly. Anything to the contrary contained herein notwithstanding, any payment item shall be deemed received by Agent only if it is received into Agent’s Account in Dollars on a Business Day on or before 2:00 p.m.  If any payment item is received into Agent’s Account on a non-Business Day or after 2:00 p.m. on a Business Day (unless Agent, at the direction of the Required Lenders in their sole discretion, elects to credit it on the date received), it shall be deemed to have been received by Agent as of the opening of business on the immediately following Business Day.

2.8.                             Designated Account .  Agent is authorized to make the Revolving Loans under this Agreement based upon telephonic or other instructions received from anyone purporting to be an Officer or, without instructions, if pursuant to Section 2.6(d).  The Borrower agrees to establish and maintain the Designated Accounts with the Designated Account Bank for the purpose of receiving the proceeds of the Revolving Loans requested by the Borrower and made by Agent or the Lenders hereunder.  Unless otherwise agreed by Agent and the Borrower, any Revolving Loan requested by the Borrower and made by Agent or the Lenders hereunder shall be made to a Designated Account.

2.9.                             Maintenance of Loan Account; Statements of Obligations .  Agent shall maintain an account on its books in the name of Borrower (the “ Loan Account ”) for all Revolving Loans made by Agent or the Lenders to Borrower or for Borrower’s account and for all other payment Obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, including, accrued interest, fees and expenses, and Lender Group Expenses.  In accordance with Section 2.7, the Loan Account will be credited with all payments received by Agent from the Borrower or for the Borrower’s account.  Agent shall make available to the Borrower monthly statements regarding the Loan Account, including the principal amount of the Revolving Loans, interest accrued hereunder, fees accrued hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, and a summary itemization of all expenses constituting Lender Group Expenses accrued hereunder or

10

under the other Loan Documents, and each such statement, absent manifest error, shall be conclusively presumed to be correct and accurate and constitute an account stated between the Borrower and the Lender Group unless, within 30 days after Agent first makes such a statement available to the Borrower, the Borrower shall deliver to Agent written objection thereto describing the error or errors contained in such statement.

2.10.                      Fees .

(a)                                  Unused Line Fee.  Borrower shall pay to Agent, for the ratable account of the Revolving Lenders, an unused line fee (the “ Unused Line Fee ”) in an amount equal to 0.50% per annum times the result of (i) the aggregate amount of the Revolver Commitments, less (ii) the average daily amount of the Revolver Usage during the immediately preceding fiscal quarter (or portion thereof), which Unused Line Fee shall be due and payable on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December and on the date on which the Obligations are paid in full.

(b)                                  Utilization Fee . Borrower shall pay to Agent, for the ratable account of the Revolving Lenders, a utilization fee (the “ Utilization Fee ”) in an amount equal to 1.0% per annum times the average daily amount of the Revolver Usage during the immediately preceding fiscal quarter (or portion thereof), which Utilization Fee shall be due and payable on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December and on the date on which the Obligations are paid in full.

(c)                                   Upfront Fees.                     Borrower shall pay to Agent, for the account of each Lender, an upfront fee in an amount of 1.00% of the stated principal amount of such Lender’s Revolver Commitment on the Closing Date.

(d)                                  Termination Fee .  If prior to the second anniversary of the Closing Date, (i) all of the Revolver Commitments are permanently reduced or terminated pursuant to Section 2.4(d) , Section  2.4(e)(ii) , or Section 3.5 or (ii) Agent has, at the instruction of the Required Lenders, accelerated the maturity of the Obligations pursuant to Section 9.1 (subject to any grace period or cure right contained in Section 8.2 or any other provision of this Agreement), the Borrower shall pay to Agent, for the account of each Lender, a termination fee in an amount equal to (A) 1.00% of the stated principal amount of such Lender’s Commitment so reduced or terminated to the extent such reduction, termination or acceleration occurs prior to the first anniversary of the Closing Date and (B) 0.50% of the stated principal amount of such Lender’s Commitment so reduced or terminated to the extent such reduction, termination or acceleration occurs on or after the first anniversary of the Closing Date and prior to the second anniversary of the Closing Date.

2.11.                      [Reserved] .

2.12.                      LIBOR Option .

(a)                                  Interest and Interest Payment Dates.  In lieu of having interest charged at the rate based upon the Base Rate, Borrower shall have the option, subject to Section 2.12(b)  below (the “ LIBOR Option ”) to have interest on all or a portion of the Revolving Loans be charged (whether at the time when made (unless otherwise provided herein), upon conversion from a Base Rate Loan to a LIBOR Rate Loan, or upon continuation of a LIBOR Rate Loan as a LIBOR Rate Loan) at a rate of interest based upon the LIBOR Rate.  Interest on LIBOR Rate Loans shall be payable on the earliest of (i) the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto.  On the last day of each applicable Interest Period, unless the Borrower has properly exercised the LIBOR Option with respect thereto, the interest rate applicable to such LIBOR Rate Loan automatically shall convert to the rate of interest then applicable to Base Rate Loans of the same type hereunder.  At any time that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing,

11

the Borrower no longer shall have the option to request that Revolving Loans bear interest at a rate based upon the LIBOR Rate.

(b)                                  LIBOR Election.

(i)                                      The Borrower may, at any time and from time to time, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, elect to exercise the LIBOR Option by notifying Agent prior to 2:00 p.m. at least three (3) Business Days prior to the commencement of the proposed Interest Period and/or the date of the Borrowing, as applicable (the “ LIBOR Deadline ”).  Notice of the Borrower’s election of the LIBOR Option for all or a portion of the Revolving Loans and an Interest Period pursuant to this Section shall be made by delivery to Agent of a LIBOR Notice (which may be delivered concurrently with and/or combined with any Notice of Borrowing) received by Agent before the LIBOR Deadline, or by telephonic notice received by Agent before the LIBOR Deadline (to be confirmed by delivery to Agent of a LIBOR Notice received by Agent prior to 5:00 p.m. on the same day).  Promptly upon its receipt of each such LIBOR Notice, Agent shall provide a copy thereof to each of the affected Lenders.

(ii)                                   Each LIBOR Notice shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower.  In connection with each LIBOR Rate Loan, the Borrower shall indemnify, defend, and hold Agent and the Lenders harmless against any loss, cost, or expense actually incurred by Agent or any Lender as a result of (A) the payment of any principal of any LIBOR Rate Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (B) the conversion of any LIBOR Rate Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, or (C) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any LIBOR Rate Loan on the date specified in any LIBOR Notice delivered pursuant hereto (such losses, costs, or expenses, “ Funding Losses ”).  A certificate of Agent or a Lender delivered to the Borrower setting forth in reasonable detail any amount or amounts that Agent or such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 2.12 shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  The Borrower shall pay such amount to Agent or the Lender, as applicable, within 30 days of the date of its receipt of such certificate.  If a payment of a LIBOR Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of the applicable Interest Period would result in a Funding Loss, Agent may, in its sole discretion at the request of the Borrower, hold the amount of such payment as cash collateral in support of the Obligations until the last day of such Interest Period and apply such amounts to the payment of the applicable LIBOR Rate Loan on such last day, it being agreed that Agent has no obligation to so defer the application of payments to any LIBOR Rate Loan and that, in the event that Agent does not defer such application, the Borrower shall be obligated to pay any resulting Funding Losses.

(iii)                                Unless the Required Lenders, in their sole discretion, agree otherwise, the Borrower shall have not more than 7 LIBOR Rate Loans in effect at any given time.  The Borrower may only exercise the LIBOR Option for proposed LIBOR Rate Loans of at least $1,000,000.

(c)                                   Conversion.  The Borrower may convert LIBOR Rate Loans to Base Rate Loans at any time; provided , that in the event that LIBOR Rate Loans are converted or prepaid on any date that is not the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, including as a result of any prepayment through the required application by Agent of any payments or proceeds of Collateral in accordance with Section 2.4(b)  or for any other reason, including early termination of the term of this Agreement or acceleration of all or any portion of the Obligations pursuant to the terms hereof, the Borrower shall indemnify, defend, and hold Agent and the Lenders and their Participants harmless against any and all Funding Losses in accordance with Section 2.12 (b)(ii) .

12

(d)                                  Special Provisions Applicable to LIBOR Rate.

(i)                                      The LIBOR Rate may be adjusted by Agent with respect to any Lender on a prospective basis to take into account any additional or increased costs to such Lender of maintaining or obtaining any eurodollar deposits or increased costs, in each case, due to changes in applicable law occurring subsequent to the commencement of the then applicable Interest Period, including any Changes in Law (including any changes in tax laws (except changes of general applicability in corporate income tax laws)) and changes in the reserve requirements imposed by the Board of Governors, which additional or increased costs would increase the cost of funding or maintaining loans bearing interest at the LIBOR Rate; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section for any additional or increased costs arising more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of the circumstances giving rise to such additional or increased costs and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that if such claim arises by reason of circumstances that is retroactive or if the effects of such circumstances were not reasonably known to such Lender during such 180-day period referred to above, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof or the date such effects of such circumstances became known or would have reasonably been known to such Lender, as applicable.  In any such event, the affected Lender shall give the Borrower and Agent notice of such a determination and adjustment and Agent promptly shall transmit the notice to each other Lender and, upon its receipt of the notice from the affected Lender,  the Borrower may, by notice to such affected Lender (A) require such Lender to furnish to the Borrower a statement setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for adjusting such LIBOR Rate and the method for determining the amount of such adjustment, or (B) repay the LIBOR Rate Loans of such Lender with respect to which such adjustment is made (together with any amounts due under Section 2.12(b)(ii) ).

(ii)                                   In the event that any change in market conditions or any Change in Law shall at any time after the date hereof, in the reasonable opinion of any Lender, make it unlawful or impractical for such Lender to fund or maintain LIBOR Rate Loans or to continue such funding or maintaining, or to determine or charge interest rates at the LIBOR Rate, such Lender shall give notice of such changed circumstances to Agent and the Borrower and Agent promptly shall transmit the notice to each other Lender and (y) in the case of any LIBOR Rate Loans of such Lender that are outstanding, the date specified in such Lender’s notice shall be deemed to be the last day of the Interest Period of such LIBOR Rate Loans, and interest upon the LIBOR Rate Loans of such Lender thereafter shall accrue interest at the rate then applicable to Base Rate Loans, and (z) the Borrower shall not be entitled to elect the LIBOR Option until such Lender determines that it would no longer be unlawful or impractical to do so.

(iii)                                Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Loan Documents, if the Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error), or the Borrower or Required Lenders notify the Agent (with, in the case of the Required Lenders, a copy to Borrower) that the Borrower or Required Lenders (as applicable) have determined, that:

(i)                                      adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the LIBOR Rate for any requested Interest Period, including, without limitation, because the LIBO Screen Rate is not available or published on a current basis and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary or

(ii)                                   the administrator of the LIBOR Rate or a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Agent has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which the LIBO Rate shall no longer be made available, or used for determining the interest rate of loans (such specific date, the “ Scheduled Unavailability Date ”), or

13

(iii)                                loans currently being executed, or that include language similar to that contained in this Section, are being executed or amended (as applicable) to incorporate or adopt a new benchmark interest rate to replace the LIBO Rate,

then, reasonably promptly after such determination by the Agent or receipt by the Administrative of such notice, as applicable, the Agent and the Borrower may amend this Agreement to replace the LIBOR Rate with an alternate benchmark rate (including any mathematical or other adjustments to the benchmark (if any) incorporated therein), giving due consideration to any evolving or then existing convention for similar credit facilities in such alternative benchmarks (any such proposed rate, a “ LIBOR Successor Rate ”), together with any proposed LIBOR Successor Rate Conforming Changes (as defined below) and any such amendment shall become effective at 5:00 p.m. (New York time) on the fifth Business Day after the Agent shall have posted such proposed amendment to all Lenders and the Borrower unless, prior to such time, Lenders comprising the Required Lenders have delivered to the Agent written notice that such Required Lenders do not accept such amendment.

If no LIBOR Successor Rate has been determined and the circumstances under clause (i) above exist or the Scheduled Unavailability Date has occurred (as applicable), the Agent will promptly so notify the Borrower and each Lender.  Thereafter, (x) the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain LIBOR Rate Loans shall be suspended (to the extent of the affected LIBOR Rate Loans), and (y) the LIBOR Rate component shall no longer be utilized in determining the Base Rate.  Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of LIBOR Rate Loans (to the extent of the affected LIBOR Rate Loans) or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans (subject to the foregoing clause (y)) in the amount specified therein.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, any definition of LIBOR Successor Rate shall provide that in no event shall such LIBOR Successor Rate be less than zero for purposes of this Agreement.

As used above, “ LIBOR Successor Rate Conforming Changes ” means, with respect to any proposed LIBOR Successor Rate, any conforming changes to the definition of Base Rate, Interest Period, timing and frequency of determining rates and making payments of interest and other administrative matters as may be appropriate, in the discretion of the Agent, to reflect the adoption of such LIBOR Successor Rate and to permit the administration thereof by the Agent in a manner substantially consistent with market practice (or, if the Agent determines that adoption of any portion of such market practice is not administratively feasible or that no market practice for the administration of such LIBOR Successor Rate exists, in such other manner of administration as the Agent determines in consultation with the Borrower).

(e)                                   No Requirement of Matched Funding.  Anything to the contrary contained herein notwithstanding, neither Agent, nor any Lender, nor any of their Participants, is required actually to acquire eurodollar deposits to fund or otherwise match fund any Obligation as to which interest accrues at the LIBOR Rate.

2.13                         Capital Requirements .

(a)                                  If, after the date hereof, any Lender determines that (i) any Change in Law regarding capital or reserve requirements for banks or bank holding companies, or (ii) compliance by such Lender, or their respective parent bank holding companies, with any guideline, request or directive of any Governmental Authority regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law), has the effect of reducing the return on such Lender’s, or such holding companies’ capital as a consequence of such Lender’s commitments hereunder to a level below that which such Lender, or such holding companies could have achieved but for such Change in Law or compliance (taking into consideration such Lender’s, or such holding companies’ then existing policies with respect to capital adequacy and

14

assuming the full utilization of such entity’s capital) by any amount deemed by such Lender to be material, then such Lender may notify the Borrower and Agent thereof.  Following receipt of such notice, the Borrower agrees to pay such Lender on demand the amount of such reduction of return of capital as and when such reduction is determined, payable within 30 days after presentation by such Lender of a statement in the amount and setting forth in reasonable detail such Lender’s calculation thereof and the assumptions upon which such calculation was based (which statement shall be deemed true and correct absent manifest error).  In determining such amount, such Lender may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods.  Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section for any reductions in return incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of such Change in Law giving rise to such reductions and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that if such claim arises by reason of the Change in Law that is retroactive or if the effects of such Change in Law were not reasonably known to such Lender during such 180-day period referred to above, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof or the date such effects of such Change in Law became known or would have reasonably been known to such Lender, as applicable.  Borrower shall not be required to pay any amount to any Person under this Section 2.13(a) in respect of any Taxes governed by Section 16 of this Agreement or any Excluded Taxes.

(b)                                  If any Lender requests additional or increased costs referred to in Section 2.12(d)(i)  or amounts under Section 2.13(a)  or sends a notice under Section 2.12(d)(ii)  relative to changed circumstances (such Lender, an “ Affected Lender ”), then such Affected Lender shall use reasonable efforts to promptly designate a different one of its lending offices or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices or branches, if (i) in the reasonable judgment of such Affected Lender, such designation or assignment would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.12(d)(i)  or Section 2.13(a) , as applicable, or would eliminate the illegality or impracticality of funding or maintaining LIBOR Rate Loans and (ii) in the reasonable judgment of such Affected Lender, such designation or assignment would not subject it to any material unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be materially disadvantageous to it.  The Borrower agrees to pay all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by such Affected Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.  If, after such reasonable efforts, such Affected Lender does not so designate a different one of its lending offices or assign its rights to another of its offices or branches so as to eliminate the Borrower’s obligation to pay any future amounts to such Affected Lender pursuant to Section 2.12(d)(i)  or Section 2.13(a) , as applicable, or to enable the Borrower to obtain LIBOR Rate Loans, then the Borrower (without prejudice to any amounts then due to such Affected Lender under Section 2.12(d)(i)  or Section 2.13(a) , as applicable) may, unless prior to the effective date of any such assignment the Affected Lender withdraws its request for such additional amounts under Section 2.12(d)(i)  or Section 2.13(a) , as applicable, or indicates that it is no longer unlawful or impractical to fund or maintain LIBOR Rate Loans, may substitute a Lender, in each case,  reasonably acceptable to Agent to purchase the Obligations owed to such Affected Lender and such Affected Lender’s Commitments hereunder (a “ Replacement Lender ”), and if such Replacement Lender agrees to such purchase, such Affected Lender shall assign to the Replacement Lender its Obligations and Commitments, and upon such purchase by the Replacement Lender, which such Replacement Lender shall be deemed to be a “ Lender ” (as the case may be) for purposes of this Agreement and such Affected Lender shall cease to be a “ Lender ” (as the case may be) for purposes of this Agreement.

(c)                                   Notwithstanding any other provision herein, no Lender shall demand compensation pursuant to this Section 2.13 if it shall not at the time be the general policy or practice of such Lender (as the case may be) to demand such compensation in similar circumstances under comparable provisions of other credit agreements, if any.

15

3.2.                             Conditions Precedent to all Extensions of Credit .  The obligation of the Lenders (or any member thereof) to make any Revolving Loans hereunder (or to extend any other credit hereunder) at any time shall be subject to the following conditions precedent:

(a)                                  the representations and warranties of Borrower or its Subsidiaries contained in this Agreement or in the other Loan Documents shall be true and correct in all material respects (except that such materiality qualifier shall not be applicable to any representations and warranties that already are qualified or modified by materiality in the text thereof) on and as of the date of such extension of credit, as though made on and as of such date (except to the extent that such representations and warranties relate to an earlier date, in which case such representations and warranties shall be true and correct in all material respects (except that such materiality qualifier shall not be applicable to any representations and warranties that already are qualified or modified by materiality in the text thereof) as of such earlier date); and

(b)                                  no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such extension of credit, nor shall either result from the making thereof.

16

connection with any subsequent termination) , and (b) the Borrower may extend the date of termination at any time if the termination notice was stated to be conditional upon the occurrence of a specified event, which event has not yet occurred.
