2. THE REVOLVING CREDIT FACILITY.

2.1 Commitment to Lend . Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Credit Agreement, each of the Lenders severally agrees to lend to the Borrower, and the Borrower may borrow, repay, and reborrow from time to time from the Closing Date up to but not including the Revolving Credit Loan Maturity Date upon notice by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent given in accordance with §2.6, such sums as are requested by the Borrower up to a maximum aggregate amount outstanding (after giving effect to all amounts requested) at any one time equal to such Lender’s Commitment minus such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the sum of the Maximum Drawing Amount and all Unpaid Reimbursement Obligations, provided that the sum of the outstanding amount of the Revolving Credit Loans (after giving effect to all amounts requested) plus the Maximum Drawing Amount and all Unpaid Reimbursement Obligations shall not at any time exceed the Total Commitment at such time. The Revolving Credit Loans shall be made pro rata in accordance with each Lender’s Commitment Percentage. Each request for a Revolving Credit Loan hereunder shall constitute a representation and warranty by the Borrower that the conditions set forth in §11 and

§12, in the case of the initial Revolving Credit Loans to be made on the Closing Date, and §12, in the case of all other Revolving Credit Loans, have been satisfied on the date of such request.

2.2 Commitment Fee . The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the accounts of the Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages a commitment fee (the “ Commitment Fee ”) calculated at the rate per annum of the Applicable Margin with respect to the Commitment Fee as in effect from time to time on the average daily amount during each calendar quarter or portion thereof from the date hereof, Closing Date or other applicable date to the Revolving Credit Loan Maturity Date by which the Total Commitment minus the sum of the Maximum Drawing Amount and all Unpaid Reimbursement Obligations exceeds the outstanding amount of Revolving Credit Loans during such calendar quarter. The Commitment Fee shall be payable quarterly in arrears on the first day of each calendar quarter for the immediately preceding calendar quarter commencing on the first such date following the date hereof, with a final payment on the Revolving Credit Loan Maturity Date or any earlier date on which the Commitments shall terminate.

2.3 Reduction of Total Commitment . The Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time upon five (5) Business Days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent to reduce by $1,000,000 or an integral multiple thereof or to terminate entirely the Total Commitment whereupon the Commitments of the Lenders shall be reduced pro rata in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages of the amount specified in such notice or, as the case may be, terminated. Promptly after receiving any notice of the Borrower delivered pursuant to this §2.3, the Administrative Agent will notify the Lenders of the substance thereof. Upon the effective date of any such reduction or termination, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the respective accounts of the Lenders the full amount of any Commitment Fee then accrued on the amount of the reduction. No reduction or termination of the Commitments may be reinstated.

2.4 The Revolving Credit Notes . The Revolving Credit Loans shall be evidenced by separate Revolving Credit Notes, dated as of the Closing Date (or such other date on which a Lender may become a party hereto in accordance with §15 hereof) and completed with appropriate insertions. One Revolving Credit Note shall be payable to the order of each Lender in a principal amount equal to such Lender’s Commitment or, if less, the outstanding amount of all Revolving Credit Loans made by such Lender, plus interest accrued thereon, as set forth below. The Borrower irrevocably authorizes each Lender to make or cause to be made, at or about the time of the Drawdown Date of any Revolving Credit Loan or at the time of receipt of any payment of principal on such Lender’s Revolving Credit Note, an appropriate notation on such Lender’s Revolving Credit Note Record reflecting the making of such Revolving Credit Loan or (as the case may be) the receipt of such payment. The outstanding amount of the Revolving Credit Loans set forth on such Lender’s Revolving Credit Note Record shall be prima facie evidence of the principal amount thereof owing and unpaid to such Lender absent manifest error, but the failure to record, or any error in so recording, any such amount on such Lender’s Revolving Credit Note Record shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligations of the Borrower hereunder or under any Revolving Credit Note to make payments of principal of or interest on any Revolving Credit Note when due.

2.5 Interest on Revolving Credit Loans . Except as otherwise provided in §5.10:

(a) Each Revolving Credit Loan which is a Base Rate Loan shall bear interest for the period commencing with the Drawdown Date thereof and ending on the last day of the Interest Period with respect thereto at the rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin with respect to Base Rate Loans as in effect from time to time.

(b) Each Revolving Credit Loan which is a Eurodollar Rate Loan shall bear interest for the period commencing with the Drawdown Date thereof and ending on the last day of the Interest Period with respect thereto at the rate per annum equal to the Eurodollar Rate determined for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Margin with respect to Eurodollar Rate Loans as in effect from time to time.

The Borrower promises to pay interest on each Revolving Credit Loan in arrears on each Interest Payment Date with respect thereto.

2.6 Requests for Revolving Credit Loans .

The Borrower shall give to the Administrative Agent a Loan and Letter of Credit Request no less than (a) one (1) Business Day prior to the proposed Drawdown Date of any Base Rate Loan and (b) three (3) Eurodollar Business Days prior to the proposed Drawdown Date of any Eurodollar Rate Loan. Each such notice shall specify (i) the principal amount of the Revolving Credit Loan requested, (ii) the proposed Drawdown Date of such Revolving Credit Loan, (iii) the Interest Period for such Revolving Credit Loan and (iv) the Type of such Revolving Credit Loan. Promptly upon receipt of any such notice, the Administrative Agent shall notify each of the Lenders thereof. Each Loan and Letter of Credit Request shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower and shall obligate the Borrower to accept the Revolving Credit Loan requested from the Lenders on the proposed Drawdown Date. Each Loan shall be in a minimum aggregate amount of $250,000 or an integral multiple thereof and shall be made to the Borrower’s operating account, as such operating account number is delivered to the Administrative Agent from time to time (the “ Operating Account ”).

2.6.2 Swing Line . Notwithstanding the notice and minimum amount requirements set forth in §2.6.1 but otherwise in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Credit Agreement, the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion and without conferring with the Lenders, make Revolving Credit Loans to the Borrower to the Operating Account in an amount as requested by the Borrower, in an aggregate outstanding amount not to exceed $2,000,000. The Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the making of such Revolving Credit Loans shall, in each case, be subject in all respects to the provisions of this Credit Agreement as if they were Revolving Credit Loans covered by a Loan and Letter of Credit Request including, without limitation, the limitations set forth in §2.1 and the requirements that the applicable provisions of §11 (in the case of Revolving Credit Loans made on the Closing Date) and §12 be satisfied. All actions taken by the Administrative Agent pursuant to the provisions of this §2.6.2 shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrower and the Lenders absent the Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. Revolving Credit Loans made pursuant to this §2.6.2 shall be Base Rate Loans until converted in accordance with the provisions of the Credit Agreement and, prior to a Settlement, such interest shall be for the account of the Administrative Agent.

2.7 Conversion Options .

2.7.1 Conversion to Different Type of Revolving Credit Loan . The Borrower may elect from time to time to convert any outstanding Revolving Credit Loan to a Revolving Credit Loan of the other Type, provided that (a) with respect to any such conversion of a Eurodollar Rate Loan to a Base Rate Loan, the Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent at least one (1) Business Day’s prior written notice of such election; (b) with respect to any such conversion of a Base Rate Loan to a Eurodollar Rate Loan, the Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent at least three (3) Eurodollar Business Days’ prior written notice of such election; and (c) no Revolving Credit Loan may be converted into a Eurodollar Rate Loan when any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. On the date on which such conversion is being made each Lender shall take such action as is necessary to transfer its Commitment Percentage of such Revolving Credit Loans to its Domestic Lending Office or its Eurodollar Lending Office, as the case may be. All or any part of outstanding Revolving Credit Loans of any Type may be converted into a Revolving Credit Loan of the other Type as provided herein, provided that any partial conversion shall be in an aggregate principal amount of $250,000 or a whole multiple thereof. Each Conversion Request relating to the conversion of a Revolving Credit Loan to a Eurodollar Rate Loan shall be irrevocable by the Borrower.

2.7.2 Continuation of Type of Revolving Credit Loan . Any Revolving Credit Loan of any Type may be continued as a Revolving Credit Loan of the same Type upon the expiration of an Interest Period with respect thereto by compliance by the Borrower with the notice provisions contained in §2.7.1; provided that no Eurodollar Rate Loan may be continued as such when any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, but shall be automatically converted to a Base Rate Loan on the last day of the first Interest Period relating thereto ending during the continuance of any Default or Event of Default of which officers of the Administrative Agent active upon the Borrower’s account have actual knowledge. In the event that the Borrower fails to provide any such notice with respect to the continuation of any Eurodollar Rate Loan as such, then such Eurodollar Rate Loan shall be automatically converted to a Base Rate Loan on the last day of the first Interest Period relating thereto. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders promptly when any such automatic conversion contemplated by this §2.7 is scheduled to occur.

2.7.3 Eurodollar Rate Loans . Any conversion to or from Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be in such amounts and be made pursuant to such elections so that, after giving effect thereto, the aggregate principal amount of all Eurodollar Rate Loans having the same Interest Period shall not be less than $250,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof. No more than six (6) Eurodollar Rate Loans having different Interest Periods may be outstanding at any time.

2.8 Funds for Revolving Credit Loan .

2.8.1 Funding Procedures . Not later than 11:00 a.m. (California time) on the proposed Drawdown Date of any Revolving Credit Loans (other than Revolving Credit Loans made pursuant to §2.6.2), each of the Lenders will make available to the Administrative Agent, at the Administrative Agent’s Office, in immediately available funds, the amount of such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the amount of the requested Revolving Credit Loans. Upon

receipt from each Lender of such amount, and upon receipt of the documents required by §§11 and 12 and the satisfaction of the other conditions set forth therein, to the extent applicable, the Administrative Agent will make available to the Borrower the aggregate amount of such Revolving Credit Loans made available to the Administrative Agent by the Lenders. The failure or refusal of any Lender to make available to the Administrative Agent at the aforesaid time and place on any Drawdown Date the amount of its Commitment Percentage of the requested Revolving Credit Loans (a) shall not relieve any other Lender from its several obligation hereunder to make available to the Administrative Agent the amount of such other Lender’s Commitment Percentage of any requested Revolving Credit Loans, or (b) shall not impose upon any other Lender any liability with respect to such failure or refusal or otherwise increase the Commitment of such other Lender.

2.8.2 Advances by Administrative Agent . The Administrative Agent may, unless notified to the contrary by any Lender prior to a Drawdown Date, assume that such Lender has made available to the Administrative Agent on such Drawdown Date the amount of such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the Revolving Credit Loans to be made on such Drawdown Date, and the Administrative Agent may (but it shall not be required to), in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. If any Lender makes available to the Administrative Agent such amount on a date after such Drawdown Date, such Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent on demand an amount equal to such amount plus interest thereon at the Defaulting Lender Rate until paid in full. A statement of the Administrative Agent submitted to such Lender with respect to any amounts owing under this paragraph shall be prima facie evidence of the amount due and owing to the Administrative Agent by such Lender. If the amount of such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of such Revolving Credit Loans is not made available to the Administrative Agent by such Lender within three (3) Business Days following such Drawdown Date, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such amount from the Borrower on demand, with interest thereon at the rate per annum applicable to the Revolving Credit Loans made on such Drawdown Date.

2.9 Settlements .

2.9.1 General . On each Settlement Date, the Administrative Agent shall, not later than 11:00 a.m. (California time), give telephonic or facsimile notice (a) to the Lenders and the Borrower of the respective outstanding amount of Revolving Credit Loans made by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders from the immediately preceding Settlement Date through the close of business on the prior day and the amount of any Eurodollar Rate Loans to be made (following the giving of notice pursuant to §2.6.1(b)) on such date pursuant to a Loan and Letter of Credit Request and (b) to the Lenders of the amount (a “ Settlement Amount ”) that each Lender (a “ Settling Lender ”) shall pay to effect a Settlement of any Revolving Credit Loan. A statement of the Administrative Agent submitted to the Lenders and the Borrower or to the Lenders with respect to any amounts owing under this §2.9 shall be prima facie evidence of the amount due and owing. Each Settling Lender shall, not later than 3:00 p.m. (California time) on such Settlement Date, effect a wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Administrative Agent in the amount of the Settlement Amount for such Settling Lender. All funds advanced by any Lender as a Settling Lender pursuant to this §2.9 shall for all purposes be treated as a Revolving Credit Loan made by such Settling Lender to the Borrower and all funds received by any Lender pursuant to this §2.9 shall for all purposes be treated as repayment of amounts owed

with respect to Revolving Credit Loans made by such Lender. In the event that any bankruptcy, reorganization, liquidation, receivership or similar cases or proceedings in which the Borrower is a debtor prevent a Settling Lender from making any Revolving Credit Loan to effect a Settlement as contemplated hereby, such Settling Lender will make such dispositions and arrangements with the other Lenders with respect to such Revolving Credit Loans, either by way of purchase of participations, distribution, pro tanto assignment of claims, subrogation or otherwise as shall result in each Lender’s share of the outstanding Revolving Credit Loans being equal, as nearly as may be, to such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the outstanding amount of the Revolving Credit Loans.

2.9.2 Failure to Make Funds Available . The Administrative Agent may, unless notified to the contrary by any Settling Lender prior to a Settlement Date, assume that such Settling Lender has made or will make available to the Administrative Agent on such Settlement Date the amount of such Settling Lender’s Settlement Amount, and the Administrative Agent may (but it shall not be required to), in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. If any Settling Lender makes available to the Administrative Agent such amount on a date after such Settlement Date, such Settling Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent on demand such amount plus interest thereon at the Defaulting Lender Rate until paid in full. A statement of the Administrative Agent submitted to such Settling Lender with respect to any amounts owing under this §2.9.2 shall be prima facie evidence of the amount due and owing to the Administrative Agent by such Settling Lender. If such Settling Lender’s Settlement Amount is not made available to the Administrative Agent by such Settling Lender within three (3) Business Days following such Settlement Date, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such amount from the Borrower on demand, with interest thereon at the rate per annum applicable to the Revolving Credit Loans as of such Settlement Date.

2.9.3 No Effect on Other Lenders . The failure or refusal of any Settling Lender to make available to the Administrative Agent at the aforesaid time and place on any Settlement Date the amount of such Settling Lender’s Settlement Amount shall not (a) relieve any other Settling Lender from its several obligations hereunder to make available to the Administrative Agent the amount of such other Settling Lender’s Settlement Amount, or (b) impose upon any Lender, other than the Settling Lender so failing or refusing, any liability with respect to such failure or refusal or otherwise increase the Commitment of such other Lender.

2.10 Repayments of Revolving Credit Loans From Concentration Account After Event of Default . Following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, at its election, Administrative Agent may instruct any bank, depositary institution or securities intermediary to liquidate all funds or other assets previously transferred or credited to a Concentration Account, a Restaurant Concentration Account or any other Deposit Account or securities account of Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries and transfer the proceeds thereof to Administrative Agent’s Account and apply such proceeds to the Obligations in accordance with §13.4.

Each payment of any Unpaid Reimbursement Obligations or prepayment of Revolving Credit Loans shall be allocated among the Lenders, in proportion, as nearly as practicable, to each Reimbursement Obligation or (as the case may be) the respective unpaid principal amount of each Lender’s Revolving Credit Note, with adjustments to the extent practicable to equalize any prior payments or repayments not exactly in proportion.

(c) The Borrower shall repay in full to the Revolving Credit Lenders all principal amounts outstanding under the Revolving Credit Loans on or after May 1 and on or before June 15 of each calendar year during the term hereof, commencing with the 2006 calendar year, such that as of June 15 of each such calendar year (or the next Business Day, if, in any year, June 15 is not a Business Day) and for a period of not less than 15 consecutive days immediately following the date of such repayment, the amount of all outstanding Revolving Credit Loans (excluding all Unpaid Reimbursement Obligations) shall be zero. Such payments shall not be made from the proceeds of the Loans or any other Indebtedness unless such Indebtedness is permitted pursuant to § 9.1.

3.3 Optional Repayments of Revolving Credit Loans . The Borrower shall have the right, at its election, to repay the outstanding amount of the Revolving Credit Loans, as a whole or in part, at any time without penalty or premium to be applied in the manner provided for in §3.4.

Each partial prepayment shall be allocated among the Lenders, in proportion, as nearly as practicable,

to the respective unpaid principal amount of each Lender’s Revolving Credit Note, with adjustments to the extent practicable to equalize any prior repayments not exactly in proportion.

3.4 Application of Payments . All payments made pursuant to §3.2(b) shall be applied to reduce the outstanding amount of the Revolving Credit Loans and to permanently reduce the Total Commitment by such amount; provided , that any payments made pursuant to §3.2(b) shall not reduce the Total Commitment if on the date such payment is made (x) no Default has occurred and is continuing and (y) no Revolving Credit Loans are outstanding; provided , further , that if (x) a Default has occurred and is continuing and (y) no Revolving Credit Loans are outstanding, the Total Commitment shall be reduced by the amount of payments made pursuant to §3.2(b). Such mandatory prepayments shall be allocated among the Lenders in proportion, as nearly as practicable, to the respective outstanding amounts of each Lender’s Revolving Credit Notes, with adjustments to the extent practicable to equalize any prior prepayments not exactly in proportion. Subject to the first proviso in this §3.4, no amounts repaid pursuant to this §3.4 may be reborrowed.

4. LETTERS OF CREDIT.

4.1 Letter of Credit Commitments .

4.1.1 Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Issuing Lender agrees to issue letters of credit for the account of Borrower (each, an “ L/C ”) or to purchase participations or execute indemnities or reimbursement obligations (each such undertaking, an “ L/C Undertaking ”) with respect to letters of credit issued by an Underlying Issuer (as of the Closing Date, the prospective Underlying Issuer is to be Wells Fargo) for the account of Borrower. Each request for the issuance of a Letter of Credit (a “ Letter of Credit Application ”), or the amendment, renewal, or extension of any outstanding Letter of Credit, shall be made in writing by an Authorized Person and delivered to the Issuing Lender and Administrative Agent via hand delivery, telefacsimile, or other electronic method of transmission reasonably in advance of the requested date of issuance, amendment, renewal, or extension. Each such request shall be in form and substance satisfactory to the Issuing Lender in its Permitted Discretion and shall specify (i) the amount of such Letter of Credit, (ii) the date of issuance, amendment, renewal, or extension of such Letter of Credit, (iii) the expiration date of such Letter of Credit, (iv) the name and address of the beneficiary thereof (or the beneficiary of the Underlying Letter of Credit, as applicable), and (v) such other information (including, in the case of an amendment, renewal, or extension, identification of the outstanding Letter of Credit to be so amended, renewed, or extended) as shall be necessary to prepare, amend, renew, or extend such Letter of Credit. If requested by the Issuing Lender, Borrower also shall be an applicant under the application with respect to any Underlying Letter of Credit that is to be the subject of an L/C Undertaking. The Issuing Lender shall have no obligation to issue a Letter of Credit if any of the following would result after giving effect to the issuance of such requested Letter of Credit:

(a) the Letter of Credit Usage would exceed $20,000,0000, or

(b) the Letter of Credit Usage would exceed the Total Commitments less the outstanding amount of the Loans.

Borrower and the Lender Group acknowledge and agree that certain Underlying Letters of Credit have been issued to support letters of credit that already are outstanding as of the Closing Date and which are identified on Schedule 1(h). Each Letter of Credit (and corresponding Underlying Letter of Credit) shall be in form and substance acceptable to the Issuing Lender (in the exercise of its Permitted Discretion), including the requirement that the amounts payable thereunder must be payable in Dollars. If Issuing Lender is obligated to advance funds under a Letter of Credit, Borrower immediately shall reimburse such L/C Disbursement to Issuing Lender by paying to Administrative Agent an amount equal to such L/C Disbursement not later than 11:00 a.m., California time, on the date that such L/C Disbursement is made, if Borrower shall have received written or telephonic notice of such L/C Disbursement prior to 10:00 a.m., California 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 11:00 a.m., California time, on the Business Day that Borrower receives such notice, if such notice is received prior to 10:00 a.m., California time, on the date of receipt, and, in the absence of such reimbursement, the L/C Disbursement immediately and automatically shall be deemed to be a Revolving Credit Loan hereunder and, initially, shall bear interest at the rate then applicable to Revolving Credit Loans that are Base Rate Loans. To the extent an L/C Disbursement is deemed to be a Revolving Credit Loan hereunder, Borrower’s obligation to reimburse such L/C Disbursement shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting Revolving Credit Loan. Promptly following receipt by Administrative Agent of any payment from Borrower pursuant to this paragraph, Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to the Issuing Lender or, to the extent that Lenders have made payments pursuant to Section 4.1.2 to reimburse the Issuing Lender, then to such Lenders and the Issuing Lender as their interests may appear.

4.1.2 Promptly following receipt of a notice of L/C Disbursement pursuant to Section 4.1.1 each Lender agrees to fund its Commitment Percentage of any Revolving Credit Loan deemed made pursuant to the foregoing subsection on the same terms and conditions as if Borrower had requested such Revolving Credit Loan and Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to Issuing Lender the amounts so received by it from the Lenders. 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 Lender or the Lenders with a Commitment, the Issuing Lender shall be deemed to have granted to each Lender, and each Lender shall be deemed to have purchased, a participation in each Letter of Credit (a “ Letter of Credit Participation ”), in an amount equal to its Commitment Percentage of the Risk Participation Liability of such Letter of Credit, and each such Lender agrees to pay to Administrative Agent, for the account of the Issuing Lender, such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of any payments made by the Issuing Lender under such Letter of Credit. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to Administrative Agent, for the account of the Issuing Lender, such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of each L/C Disbursement made by the Issuing Lender and not reimbursed by Borrower (the “ Unpaid Reimbursement Obligations ”) on the date due as provided in Section 4.1.1 , or of any reimbursement payment required to be refunded to Borrower for any reason. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to deliver to Administrative Agent, for the account of the Issuing Lender, an amount equal to its respective Commitment Percentage of each L/C Disbursement made by the Issuing Lender pursuant to this Section 4.1.2 shall be absolute and unconditional and such remittance shall be made notwithstanding the occurrence or continuation of an Event of Default or Default or the failure to satisfy any condition set forth in

Section 11 . If any such Lender fails to make available to Administrative Agent the amount of such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of each L/C Disbursement made by the Issuing Lender in respect of such Letter of Credit as provided in this Section, such Lender shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender and Administrative Agent (for the account of the Issuing Lender) shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Lender together with interest thereon at the Defaulting Lender Rate until paid in full.

4.1.3 Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify, save, defend, and hold the Lender Group harmless from any loss, cost, expense, or liability, and reasonable attorneys fees incurred by the Lender Group arising out of or in connection with any Letter of Credit; provided , however , that Borrower shall not be obligated hereunder to indemnify for any loss, cost, expense, or liability to the extent that it is caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Issuing Lender or any other member of the Lender Group. Borrower agrees to be bound by the Underlying Issuer’s regulations and interpretations of any Underlying Letter of Credit or by Issuing Lender’s interpretations of any L/C issued by Issuing Lender to or for Borrower’s account, even though this interpretation may be different from Borrower’s own, and Borrower understands and agrees that the Lender Group shall not be liable for any error, negligence, or mistake, whether of omission or commission, in following Borrower’s instructions or those contained in the Letter of Credit or any modifications, amendments, or supplements thereto. Borrower understands that the L/C Undertakings may require Issuing Lender to indemnify the Underlying Issuer for certain costs or liabilities arising out of claims by Borrower against such Underlying Issuer. Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify, save, defend, and hold the Lender Group harmless with respect to any loss, cost, expense (including reasonable attorneys fees), or liability incurred by the Lender Group under any L/C Undertaking as a result of the Lender Group’s indemnification of any Underlying Issuer; provided , however , that Borrower shall not be obligated hereunder to indemnify for any loss, cost, expense, or liability to the extent that it is caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Issuing Lender or any other member of the Lender Group. Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that neither the Lender Group nor the Issuing Lender shall be responsible for delays, errors, or omissions resulting from the malfunction of equipment in connection with any Letter of Credit.

4.1.4 Borrower hereby authorizes and directs any Underlying Issuer to deliver to the Issuing Lender all instruments, documents, and other writings and property received by such Underlying Issuer pursuant to such Underlying Letter of Credit and to accept and rely upon the Issuing Lender’s instructions with respect to all matters arising in connection with such Underlying Letter of Credit and the related application.

Any and all issuance charges, commissions, fees, and costs incurred by the Issuing Lender relating to Underlying Letters of Credit immediately shall be reimbursable by Borrower to Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Lender; it being acknowledged and agreed by Borrower that the Underlying Issuer also imposes a schedule of charges for amendments, extensions, drawings, and renewals.

4.2 Reliance by Administrative Agent . To the extent not inconsistent with §4.1, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying upon, any Letter of Credit, draft, writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, cablegram, telegram, telecopy, telex or teletype message, statement, order or other document believed by it

in good faith to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons and upon advice and statements of legal counsel, independent accountants and other experts selected by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Credit Agreement unless it shall first have received such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders as it reasonably deems appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its reasonable satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. The Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Credit Agreement in accordance with a request of the Required Lenders, and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon the Lenders and all future holders of the Revolving Credit Notes or of a Letter of Credit Participation.

4.3 Letter of Credit Fees .

4.3.1 Issuance Fee . Borrower shall pay Administrative Agent (for the ratable benefit of the Lenders, subject to any agreements between Administrative Agent and individual Lenders), a Letter of Credit fee (in addition to the charges, commissions, fees, and costs set forth in Section 4.1 which shall accrue at a rate equal to the Applicable Margin per annum in effect from time to time times the Daily Balance of the undrawn amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit.

4.3.2 Fronting Fee . The Borrower agrees to pay the Administrative Agent a fronting fee for its own account for each Letter of Credit issued by the Administrative Agent in the amount agreed to between the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in the Administrative Agent’s Fee Letter.

5. CERTAIN GENERAL PROVISIONS.

5.1 Administrative Agent’s Fee . The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent annually in advance, for the Administrative Agent’s own account, the Fees set forth in the Administrative Agent’s Fee Letter.

5.2 Funds for Payments .

5.2.1 Payments to Administrative Agent . All payments of principal, interest, Reimbursement Obligations, Fees and any other amounts due hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents shall be made on the due date thereof to the Administrative Agent in Dollars, for the respective accounts of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent, at the Administrative Agent’s Office or at such other place that the Administrative Agent may from time to time designate, in each case on or prior to 11:00 a.m. (California time or other local time at the place of payment) and in immediately available funds.

5.2.2 No Offset, etc . All payments by the Borrower hereunder and under any of the other Loan Documents shall be made without recoupment, setoff or counterclaim and free and clear of and without deduction for any taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions, withholdings, compulsory loans, restrictions or conditions of any nature now or hereafter imposed or levied by any jurisdiction or any political subdivision thereof or taxing or

other authority therein (excluding franchise taxes and taxes imposed on or measured by the net income, profits or receipts of the Administrative Agent or any Lender, all such non-excludable items being called “ Taxes ”) unless the Borrower is compelled by law to make such deduction or withholding. If any such obligation is imposed upon the Borrower in respect of any Taxes with respect to any amount payable by it hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents, the Borrower will pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Lenders or (as the case may be) the Administrative Agent, on the date on which such amount is due and payable hereunder or under such other Loan Document, such additional amount in Dollars as shall be necessary to enable the Lenders or the Administrative Agent to receive the same net amount which the Lenders or the Administrative Agent would have received on such due date had no such obligation been imposed upon the Borrower. The Borrower will deliver promptly to the Administrative Agent certificates or other valid vouchers for all taxes or other charges deducted from or paid with respect to payments made by the Borrower hereunder or under such other Loan Document.

5.2.3 Non-U.S. Lenders . Each Lender and the Administrative Agent that is not a U.S. Person as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code for federal income tax purposes (a “ Non-U.S. Lender ”) hereby agrees that, if and to the extent it is legally able to do so, it shall, prior to the date of the first payment by the Borrower hereunder to be made to such Lender or the Administrative Agent or for such Lender’s or the Administrative Agent’s account, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, as applicable, such certificates, documents or other evidence, as and when required by the Code or Treasury Regulations issued pursuant thereto, including (a) in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender that is a “bank” for purposes of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, two (2) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or Form W-8ECI and any other certificate or statement of exemption required by Treasury Regulations, or any subsequent versions thereof or successors thereto, properly completed and duly executed by such Lender or the Administrative Agent establishing that with respect to payments of principal, interest or fees hereunder it is (i) not subject to United States federal withholding tax under the Code because such payment is effectively connected with the conduct by such Lender or Administrative Agent of a trade or business in the United States or (ii) totally exempt or partially exempt from United States federal withholding tax under a provision of an applicable tax treaty and (b) in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender that is not a “bank” for purposes of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a certificate in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower and to the effect that such Non-U.S. Lender (i) is not a “bank” for purposes of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, is not subject to regulatory or other legal requirements as a bank in any jurisdiction, and has not been treated as a bank for purposes of any tax, securities law or other filing or submission made to any governmental authority, any application made to a rating agency or qualification for any exemption from any tax, securities law or other legal requirements, (ii) is not a ten (10) percent shareholder of the Borrower for purposes of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code and (iii) is not a controlled foreign corporation receiving interest from a related person for purposes of Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code, together with a properly completed Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-9, as applicable (or successor forms). Each Lender or the Administrative Agent agrees that it shall, promptly upon a change of its lending office or the selection of any additional lending office, to the extent the forms previously delivered by it pursuant to this section are no longer effective, and promptly upon the Borrower’s or the Administrative Agent’s reasonable request after the occurrence of any other event (including the passage of time)

requiring the delivery of a Form W-8BEN, Form W-8ECI or W-9 in addition to or in replacement of the forms previously delivered, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, as applicable, if and to the extent it is properly entitled to do so, a properly completed and executed Form W-8BEN, Form W-8ECI or W-9, as applicable (or any successor forms thereto). The Borrower shall not be required to pay any additional amounts to any Non-U.S. Lender in respect of United States federal withholding tax pursuant to §5.2.2 above to the extent that the obligation to pay such additional amounts would not have arisen but for a failure by such Non-U.S. Lender to comply with the provisions of this §5.2.3; provided , however , that the foregoing shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to pay additional amounts pursuant to §5.2.2 in the event that, as a result of any change in any applicable law, treaty or governmental rule, regulation or order, or any change in interpretation, administration or application thereof, a Non-U.S. Lender that was previously entitled to receive all payments under this Credit Agreement and the Revolving Credit Notes without deduction or withholding of any United States federal income taxes is no longer properly entitled to deliver forms, certificates or other evidence at a subsequent date establishing the fact that such Lender is not subject to withholding.

5.3 Computations . All computations of interest on the Loans and of Fees shall, unless otherwise expressly provided herein, be based on a 360-day year and paid for the actual number of days elapsed (or, in the case of interest on Base Rate Loans, a 365-day year or, if appropriate, a 366-day year). Except as otherwise provided in the definition of the term “ Interest Period ” with respect to Eurodollar Rate Loans, whenever a payment of principal on any Revolving Credit Note becomes due on a day that is not a Business Day, the due date for such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and interest shall accrue during such extension.

5.4 Inability to Determine Eurodollar Rate . In the event, prior to the commencement of any Interest Period relating to any Eurodollar Rate Loan, the Administrative Agent shall determine in good faith or be notified by the Required Lenders that they have determined in good faith that (a) by reason of circumstances affecting the interbank eurodollar market, adequate and reasonable methods do not exist for ascertaining the Eurodollar Rate that would otherwise determine the rate of interest to be applicable to any Eurodollar Rate Loan during such Interest Period or (b) the Eurodollar Rate determined or to be determined for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Lenders of making or maintaining their Eurodollar Rate Loans during such period, the Administrative Agent shall forthwith give notice of such determination (which shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrower and the Lenders) to the Borrower and the Lenders. In such event and for so long as such circumstances shall continue (i) any Loan and Letter of Credit Request or Conversion Request with respect to Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be automatically withdrawn and shall be deemed a request for Base Rate Loans, (ii) each Eurodollar Rate Loan will automatically, on the last day of the then current Interest Period relating thereto, become a Base Rate Loan, and (iii) the obligations of the Lenders to make Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent determines that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, whereupon the Administrative Agent shall so notify the Borrower and the Lenders.

5.5 Illegality . Notwithstanding any other provisions herein, if any future law (or any change in any present law), regulation, treaty or directive or the interpretation or application of such law, regulation, treaty or directive by any governmental or regulatory body charged with the

administration thereof shall make it unlawful for any Lender to make or maintain Eurodollar Rate Loans, such Lender shall forthwith give notice of such circumstances to the Borrower and the other Lenders and thereupon, so long as such circumstances shall continue, (a) the commitment of such Lender to make Eurodollar Rate Loans or convert Base Rate Loans to Eurodollar Rate Loans shall forthwith be suspended (but such Lender shall make Base Rate Loans concurrently with the making of, or conversion into, Eurodollar Rate Loans by the Lender not so affected, in each case in an amount equal to the amount of Eurodollar Loans that would have been made or converted into by such Lender at such time in the absence of such circumstances), and (b) such Lender’s Revolving Credit Loans then outstanding as Eurodollar Rate Loans, if any, shall be converted automatically to Base Rate Loans on the last day of each Interest Period applicable to such Eurodollar Rate Loans or within such earlier period as may be required by law. The Borrower hereby agrees promptly to pay (without duplication of any payments required by §5.9) to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender, upon demand by such Lender, any additional amounts necessary to compensate such Lender for any costs incurred by such Lender in making any conversion in accordance with this §5.5, including any interest or fees payable by such Lender to lenders of funds obtained by it in order to make or maintain its Eurodollar Rate Loans hereunder.

5.6 Additional Costs, etc . If any future applicable law (or any change in any present law), which expression, as used herein, includes statutes, rules and regulations thereunder and interpretations thereof by any competent court or by any governmental or other regulatory body or official charged with the administration or the interpretation thereof and requests, directives, instructions and notices at any time or from time to time hereafter made upon or otherwise issued to any Lender or the Administrative Agent by any central bank or other fiscal, monetary or other authority (whether or not having the force of law), shall:

(a) subject any Lender or the Administrative Agent to any Tax with respect to this Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents, any Letters of Credit, such Lender’s Commitment or the Loans; or

(b) materially change the basis of taxation (except for changes in taxes on income or profits) of payments to any Lender of the principal of or the interest on any Loans or any other amounts payable to any Lender or the Administrative Agent under this Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents; or

(c) impose or increase or render applicable (other than to the extent specifically provided for elsewhere in this Credit Agreement) any special deposit, reserve, assessment, liquidity, capital adequacy or other similar requirements (whether or not having the force of law) against assets held by, or deposits in or for the account of, or loans by, or letters of credit issued by, or commitments of an office of any Lender; or

(d) impose on any Lender or the Administrative Agent any other conditions or requirements with respect to this Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents, any Letters of Credit, the Loans, such Lender’s Commitment, or any class of loans, letters of credit or commitments of which any of the Loans or such Lender’s Commitment forms a part, and the result of any of the foregoing is:

(i) to increase the actual cost to any Lender of making, funding, issuing, renewing, extending or maintaining any of the Loans or such Lender’s Commitment or any Letter of Credit; or

(ii) to reduce the amount of principal, interest, Reimbursement Obligation or other amount payable to such Lender or the Administrative Agent hereunder on account of such Lender’s Commitment, any Letter of Credit or any of the Loans; or

(iii) to require such Lender or the Administrative Agent to make any payment or to forego any interest or Reimbursement Obligation or other sum payable hereunder, the amount of which payment or foregone interest or Reimbursement Obligation or other sum is calculated by reference to the gross amount of any sum receivable or deemed received by such Lender or the Administrative Agent from the Borrower hereunder,

then, and in each such case, the Borrower will, within five (5) days of demand made by such Lender or (as the case may be) the Administrative Agent at any time and from time to time and as often as the occasion therefor may arise, pay to such Lender or the Administrative Agent such additional amounts as will be sufficient to compensate such Lender or the Administrative Agent for such additional cost, reduction, payment or foregone interest or Reimbursement Obligation or other sum.

5.7 Capital Adequacy . If after the date hereof any Lender or the Administrative Agent determines in good faith that (a) the adoption of or change in any law, governmental rule, regulation, policy, guideline or directive (whether or not having the force of law) regarding capital requirements for banks or bank holding companies or any change in the interpretation or application thereof by a Governmental Authority with appropriate jurisdiction, or (b) compliance by such Lender or the Administrative Agent or any corporation controlling such Lender or the Administrative Agent with any law, governmental rule, regulation, policy, guideline or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such entity regarding capital adequacy, has the effect of reducing the return on such Lender’s or the Administrative Agent’s commitment with respect to any Loans to a level below that which such Lender or the Administrative Agent could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration such Lender’s or the Administrative Agent’s then existing policies with respect to capital adequacy) by any amount deemed by such Lender or (as the case may be) the Administrative Agent, in each case determined in good faith, to be material, then such Lender or the Administrative Agent may notify the Borrower of such fact. To the extent that the amount of such reduction in the return on capital is not reflected in the interest payable hereunder, the Borrower and such Lender shall thereafter attempt to negotiate in good faith, within thirty (30) days of the day on which the Borrower receives such notice, an adjustment payable hereunder that will adequately compensate such Lender in light of these circumstances. If the Borrower and such Lender are unable to agree to such adjustment within thirty (30) days of the date on which the Borrower receives such notice, then commencing on the date of such notice (but not earlier than the effective date of any such increased capital requirement), the fees payable hereunder shall increase by an amount that will, in such Lender’s reasonable determination, provide adequate compensation. Each Lender shall allocate such cost increases among its customers in good faith and on an equitable basis.

5.8 Certificate . Any Lender or the Administrative Agent claiming reimbursement or compensation under §§5.6 or 5.7 shall deliver to the Borrower a certificate setting forth (a) any additional amounts payable pursuant to §§5.6 or 5.7, and (b) the basis for such claim and a calculation of the amount payable to such Lender or the Administrative Agent in connection therewith in reasonable detail. Any such certificate submitted by any Lender or the Administrative Agent to the Borrower, shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, that such amounts are due and owing.

5.9 Indemnity . The Borrower agrees to indemnify each Lender and to hold each Lender harmless from and against any loss, cost or expense (excluding the loss of anticipated profits) that such Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of (a) default by the Borrower in payment of the principal amount of or any interest on any Eurodollar Rate Loans as and when due and payable, including any such loss or expense arising from interest or fees payable by such Lender to banks of funds obtained by it in order to maintain its Eurodollar Rate Loans, (b) default by the Borrower in making a borrowing or conversion after the Borrower has given (or is deemed to have given) a Loan and Letter of Credit Request or a Conversion Request relating thereto in accordance with §§2.6 or 2.7, or (c) the making of any payment of a Eurodollar Rate Loan or the making of any conversion of any such Loan to a Base Rate Loan on a day that is not the last day of the applicable Interest Period with respect thereto, including interest or fees payable by such Lender to lenders of funds obtained by it in order to maintain any such Loans.

5.10 Interest After Default . During the continuance of an Event of Default, all principal and interest on the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to 2% plus the rate of interest then applicable thereto (or, if no rate of interest is then applicable thereto, the Base Rate).

5.11 Replacement of Lenders . If any Lender (an “ Affected Lender ”) (a) makes demand upon the Borrower for (or if the Borrower is otherwise required to pay) amounts pursuant to §§5.2.2, 5.6 or 5.7, (b) is unable to make or maintain Eurodollar Rate Loans as a result of a condition described in §5.5 or (c) defaults in its obligation to make Loans in accordance with the terms of this Credit Agreement or purchase any Letter of Credit Participation, the Borrower may, so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing by notice in writing to the Administrative Agent and such Affected Lender, (i) request the Affected Lender to cooperate with the Borrower in obtaining a replacement Lender reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower (the “ Replacement Lender ”); (ii) request the non-Affected Lenders to acquire and assume all of the Affected Lender’s Loans and Commitment as provided herein, but none of such Lenders shall be under an obligation to do so; or (iii) designate a Replacement Lender approved by the Administrative Agent, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed. If any satisfactory Replacement Lender shall be obtained, and/or if any one or more of the non-Affected Lenders shall agree to acquire and assume all of the Affected Lender’s Loans and Commitment, then such Affected Lender shall assign, in accordance with §15, all of its Commitment, Loans, Letter of Credit Participations, Revolving Credit Notes and other rights and obligations under this Credit Agreement and all other Loan Documents to such Replacement Lender or non-Affected Lenders, as the case may be, in exchange for payment of the principal amount so assigned and all interest and fees accrued on the amount so assigned, plus all other Obligations then due and payable to

the Affected Lender; provided , however , that (A) such assignment shall be without recourse, representation or warranty and shall be on terms and conditions reasonably satisfactory to such Affected Lender and such Replacement Lender and/or non-Affected Lenders, as the case may be, and (B) prior to any such assignment, the Borrower shall have paid to such Affected Lender all amounts properly demanded and unreimbursed under §§5.6 and 5.7. Upon the effective date of such assignment, the Borrower shall issue replacement Revolving Credit Notes to such Replacement Lender and/or non-Affected Lenders, as the case may be, and such institution shall become a “Lender” for all purposes under this Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

5.12 Mitigation . Each Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of any event of which it has actual knowledge which will result in, and will use reasonable commercial efforts available to it (and not otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender) to mitigate or avoid, any obligation by the Borrower to pay any amount pursuant to, or the occurrence of any circumstances described in §§5.2.2, 5.5, 5.6or 5.7 (and, if any Lender has given any such notice and thereafter such event ceases to exist, such Lender shall promptly so notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent).
