EX-10.235th Page of 137TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 35th
record a transaction in a timely fashion shall not affect or impair the validity of any Obligation. The Agent shall render to the Borrower a monthly statement of the Revolving Credit Loan Account and, unless written exception thereto is taken by the Borrower within forty-five (45) days of receipt, such statement shall be conclusive and binding upon the Borrower except for manifest error; provided, however, that the failure of the Agent to render any such statement in a timely fashion shall not impair the validity or binding nature of the Revolving Credit Loan Account.

Whenever the Borrower desires to receive a Revolving Credit Advance, the Borrower shall give notice to the Agent by telephone, telecopy, telex or cable; in each case, confirmed in writing by the Borrower, delivered to the Agent's head office at 100 Federal Street, Boston, Massachusetts 02110, Attention: Commercial Loan Services, Mail Stop: 05-02-00-A. Each such notice delivered by the Borrower shall specify the aggregate principal amount of the Revolving Credit Advance requested.

Any notice given to the Agent in connection with a requested Revolving Credit Advance hereunder shall be given to the Agent prior to 11:00 a.m. (Boston time) in order for such 26
EX-10.236th Page of 137TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 36th
Business Day to count toward the minimum number of Business Days required. The Agent shall, upon reasonable request of the Borrower from time to time, provide to the Borrower such information with regard to the Eurodollar Rate Basis as may be so requested.

The Borrower shall give the Agent in the case of Base Rate Advances not later than 11:00 a.m. (Boston time) one (1) Business Day prior to the date of a proposed Revolving Credit Advance, irrevocable prior notice by telephone or telecopy and shall confirm any such telephone notice with a written request for Revolving Credit Advance; provided, however, that the failure by the Borrower to confirm any notice by telephone or telecopy with a request for Revolving Credit Advance shall not invalidate any notice so given. 2. Repayments and Reborrowings. The Borrower may repay or prepay a Base Rate Advance, and (a) at any time reborrow all or a portion of the principal amount thereof as one (1) or more Base Rate Advances, (b) upon at least three (3) Business Days irrevocable prior written notice to the Agent, reborrow all or a portion of the principal thereof as one (1) or more Eurodollar Advances, or (c) not reborrow all or any portion of such Base Rate Advance.

Each Base Rate Advance shall be in a principal amount of not less than $500,000.00 and in integral multiples of $50,000.00. Requests for any Base Rate Advance may be made daily (but only once a day), provided the Borrower satisfies all notice requirements as provided for herein. (d) Eurodollar Advances. (i) Initial and Subsequent Eurodollar Advances. The Borrower shall give the Agent in the case of Eurodollar Advances at least three (3) Business Days irrevocable prior notice by telephone or telecopy and shall immediately confirm any such telephone notice with a written request for Revolving Credit Advance; provided, however, that the failure by the Borrower to confirm any notice by telephone or telecopy with a request for Revolving Credit Advance shall not invalidate any notice so given. The Agent, whose determination shall be conclusive, shall determine the Eurodollar Basis as of the second (2nd) Business Day prior to the date of the requested Revolving Credit Advance and shall promptly notify the Borrower of the same, and the Borrower shall promptly confirm in writing receipt of such notification. The Eurodollar Loan Period for each Eurodollar Advance shall in all events be either one (1), two (2) or three (3) months. Upon receipt of such notice from the Borrower, the Agent shall promptly notify each Revolving Credit Lender by telephone or telecopy of the contents thereof.

At least three (3) Business Days prior to each Payment Date for a Eurodollar Loan, the Borrower shall give the Agent written notice specifying whether all or a portion of any Eurodollar Advance outstanding on the Payment Date (a) is to be repaid and then reborrowed in whole or in part as a 27
EX-10.237th Page of 137TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 37th
new Eurodollar Advance, in which case such notice shall also specify the Eurodollar Loan Period which the Borrower shall have selected for such new Eurodollar Advance, (b) is to be repaid and then reborrowed in whole or in part as a Base Rate Advance, or (c) is to be repaid and not reborrowed. Upon such Payment Date such Eurodollar Advance will, subject to the provisions hereof, be so repaid and, as applicable, reborrowed. (iii) Limitations as to Eurodollar Advances. Each Eurodollar Advance shall be in a principal amount of not less than $1,000,000.00 and in integral multiples of $100,000.00, and at no time shall the aggregate number of all Eurodollar Advances then outstanding exceed four (4). Requests for Eurodollar Advances may be made daily (but only once a day) provided the Borrower satisfies all notice requirements as provided for herein. (iv) Reimbursement. Whenever any Revolving Credit Lender shall actually incur any losses or actual expenses in connection with (i) failure by the Borrower to borrow any Eurodollar Advance after having given notice of its intention to borrow (whether by reason of the election of the Borrower not to proceed or the non-fulfillment of any conditions precedent), or (ii) prepayment of any Eurodollar Advance in whole or in part, for any reason, the Borrower agrees to pay to such Revolving Credit Lender, upon such Revolving Credit Lender's demand, an amount sufficient to compensate such Revolving Credit Lender for all such losses and actual expenses excluding lost profits. Such Revolving Credit Lender's good faith determination of the amount of such losses and actual expenses, absent manifest error, shall be binding and conclusive. The Revolving Credit Lender shall provide a copy of the determination of such amount to the Borrower showing in reasonable detail the calculation of the amount thereof. (e) Yield Maintenance as to Eurodollar Advances. (i) Unavailability. Notwithstanding anything contained herein which may be construed to the contrary, if with respect to any proposed Eurodollar Loans for any Eurodollar Loan Period, the Agent determines that deposits in dollars (in the applicable amount) are not being offered to the Agent in the relevant market for such Eurodollar Loan Period, the Agent shall forthwith give notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders, whereupon until the Agent notifies the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such situation no longer exist, the obligations of the Lenders to make such types of Eurodollar Loans (including Eurodollar Advances) shall be suspended. (ii) Illegality. If any applicable law, rule, or regulation, or any change therein, or any interpretation or change in interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority, central bank, or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any Lender with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank, or comparable agency, shall make it unlawful or impossible for any Lender to make, maintain, or fund its Eurodollar Loans, such Lender shall so notify the Agent, and the Agent shall forthwith give notice thereof to the other Lenders and the Borrower. Before giving any notice to the Agent pursuant to this Section 3.5(e)(ii), such Lender shall designate a different lending office if such designation will avoid the need for giving such notice and will not, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, be otherwise 28
EX-10.238th Page of 137TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 38th
materially disadvantageous to such Lender. Upon receipt of such notice, notwithstanding anything contained in Section 3, the Borrower shall repay in full the then outstanding principal amount of each affected Eurodollar Loan of such Lender, together with accrued interest thereon, either (a) on the last day of the then current Eurodollar Loan Period applicable to such Eurodollar Loan if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain and fund such Eurodollar Loan to such day or (b) immediately if such Lender may not lawfully continue to fund and maintain such Eurodollar Loan to such day; provided, however, that notwithstanding any provision contained in this Agreement to the contrary, the Borrower shall not be required to compensate any Lender for any losses, including any loss or expenses incurred by reason of the liquidation, reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired to obtain the Eurodollar Loan, incurred as a consequence of any required conversion of a Eurodollar Loan to a Base Rate Loan as hereinafter provided, as a result of the events described in this Section 3.5. Concurrently with repaying each affected Eurodollar Loan of such Lender, notwithstanding anything contained in Section 3, the Borrower shall borrow a Base Rate Loan (or the other type of Eurodollar Loan, if available) from such Lender, and such Lender shall make such Loan in an amount such that the outstanding principal amount of the Note held by such Lender shall equal the outstanding principal amount of such Note immediately prior to such repayment. (iii) Increased Costs. (a) If, after the date hereof, any applicable law, rule, or regulation, or any change therein, or any interpretation or change in interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority, central bank, or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof or compliance by any Lender with any request or directive (whether or not having any such authority), central bank or comparable agency shall: 1. subject any Lender to any tax, duty, or other charge with respect to its obligation to make Eurodollar Advances, or its Eurodollar Advances, or shall change the basis of taxation of payments to any Lender of the principal of or interest on its Eurodollar Advances or in respect of any other amounts due under this Agreement in respect of its Eurodollar Advances or its obligation to make Eurodollar Advances (except for taxes imposed upon or measured by net income or alternative minimum taxable income or taxable assets in lieu of income imposed by the United States and the jurisdiction in which such Lender's principal executive office is located); or 2. impose, modify, or deem applicable with respect to the making, funding or maintaining any Advance hereunder, any reserve (including, without limitation, any imposed by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, but excluding any included in an applicable Eurodollar Reserve Percentage), special deposit, capital adequacy, assessment, or other requirement or condition against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or commitments or credit extended by any Lender, or shall impose on any Lender or the Eurodollar interbank borrowing market any other condition affecting its obligation to make such Eurodollar Advances or its Eurodollar Advances; and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any such Eurodollar Advances, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender under this Agreement or under its Notes with respect thereto, and such increase is not given effect in the determination of the 29
EX-10.239th Page of 137TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 39th
Eurodollar Rate then, on the earlier of thirty (30) days after written demand by such Lender or the Maturity Date, the Borrower agrees to pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as such Lender determines is attributable to making, funding and maintaining its Eurodollar Advances provided that the Lender provides notice to the Borrower of such amount within ninety (90) days of the date of the actual knowledge of the Lender of the occurrence of the event giving rise to such cost. Each Lender will promptly notify the Borrower and the Agent of any event of which it has knowledge, occurring after the date hereof, which will entitle such Lender to compensation pursuant to this Section 3.5 and will designate a different lending office if such designation will avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, such compensation and will not, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, be otherwise materially disadvantageous to such Lender. (b) A certificate of any Lender claiming compensation under this Section 3.5(e)(iii)(b) and setting forth the additional amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder and calculations therefor shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. In determining such amount, such Lender may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods and shall calculate such sums in a fair and reasonable manner. If any Lender demands compensation under this Section 3.5(e)(iii)(b), the Borrower may at any time, upon at least five (5) Business Days prior notice to such Lender, prepay in full the then outstanding affected Eurodollar Advances of such Lender, together with accrued interest thereon to the date of prepayment, along with any payments required under Section 5.8. Concurrently with prepaying such Eurodollar Advances, the Borrower shall borrow a Base Rate Advance, or a Eurodollar Advance not so affected, from such Lender, and such Lender shall make such Advance in an amount such that the outstanding principal amount of the Notes held by such Lender shall equal the outstanding principal amount of such Notes immediately prior to such prepayment. (iv) Effect On Other Advances. If notice has been given pursuant to Section 3.5(e)(iii), suspending the obligation of any Lender to make any type of Eurodollar Loan, or requiring Eurodollar Loans of any Lender to be repaid or prepaid, then, unless and until such Lender notifies the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such repayment no longer apply, all Loans which would otherwise be made by such Lender as to the type of Eurodollar Loans affected shall, at the option of the Borrower, be made instead as Base Rate Loans. (f) Notification of Lenders. Upon receipt of a (i) request for Advance or a telephone or telecopy request for Advance or (ii) notice from the Borrower with respect to any outstanding Advance prior to the Payment Date for such Advance, the Agent shall promptly notify each Revolving Credit Lender by telephone or telecopy of the contents thereof and the amount of each Revolving Credit Lender's portion of any such Advance. Each Revolving Credit Lender shall, not later than 2:00 p.m. (Boston time) on the date specified for such Advance in such notice, make available to the Agent at the Agent's office, or at such account as the Agent shall designate, the amount of such Revolving Credit Lender's portion of the Advance in immediately available funds. (g) Disbursement. Prior to 3:00 p.m. (Boston time) on the date of an Advance hereunder, the Agent shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 3.5(f), disburse the amounts made available to the Agent by the Revolving Credit Lenders in like funds 30
EX-10.240th Page of 137TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 40th
by transferring the amounts so made available by deposit into the Borrower's account maintained with Fleet or by wire transfer pursuant to the Borrower's instructions. Unless the Agent shall have received notice from a Revolving Credit Lender prior to 11:00 a.m. (Boston time) on the date of any Advance that such Revolving Credit Lender will not make available to the Agent such Revolving Credit Lender's ratable portion of such Advance, the Agent may assume that such Revolving Credit Lender has made or will make such portion available to the Agent on the date of such Advance and the Agent may, in its sole discretion and in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If and to the extent such Revolving Credit Lender shall not have so made such ratable portion available to the Agent, such Revolving Credit Lender agrees to repay to the Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to the Borrower until the date such amount is repaid to the Agent, (x) for the first two (2) Business Days, at the rate on overnight Federal funds transactions with members of the Federal Reserve System arranged by Federal funds brokers, as published for such day by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, and (y) thereafter, at the Base Rate. If such Revolving Credit Lender shall repay to the Agent such corresponding amount, such amount so repaid shall constitute such Revolving Credit Lender's portion of the applicable Advance for purposes of this Agreement, and if both such Revolving Credit Lender and the Borrower shall pay and repay such corresponding amount, the Agent shall promptly relend to the Borrower such corresponding amount. If such Revolving Credit Lender does not repay such corresponding amount immediately upon the Agent's demand therefor, the Agent shall notify the Borrower, and the Borrower shall immediately pay such corresponding amount to the Agent. The failure of any Revolving Credit Lender to fund its portion of any Advance shall not relieve any other Revolving Credit Lender of its obligation, if any, hereunder to fund its respective portion of the Advance on the date of such borrowing, but no Revolving Credit Lender shall be responsible for any such failure of any other Revolving Credit Lender. In the event that a Revolving Credit Lender for any reason fails or refuses to fund its portion of an Advance in violation of this Agreement, then, until such time as such Revolving Credit Lender has funded its portion of such Advance, or all other Revolving Credit Lenders have received payment in full (whether by repayment or prepayment) of the principal and interest due in respect of such Advance, the percentage of any Revolving Credit Lender's portion of the requested Advance shall be grossed up on a pro rata basis to reflect the suspension of the non-funding Revolving Credit Lender and such non-funding Revolving Credit Lender shall (i) have no right to vote regarding any issue on which voting is required or advisable under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, and (ii) shall not be entitled to receive any payments of principal, interest or fees from the Agent (or the other Lenders) in respect of its Loans, which amounts may be applied by the Agent for the benefit of the Agent and the other Lenders in accordance with the provisions of Section 12.5 and thereafter in a manner determined by the Agent in its sole discretion. In no event, however, shall any Lender be required to fund any amounts in excess of its Commitment Percentage. Section 3.6 Interest. Except as otherwise provided in Section 5.8, interest on the principal amount of all Revolving Credit Advances outstanding from time to time shall bear interest, and shall be payable as follows: (a) On Base Rate Advances. Interest on each Base Rate Advance shall be computed for the actual number of days elapsed on the basis of a hypothetical year of three 31
EX-10.241st Page of 137TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 41st
Promptly after calculating the amount of interest then due and owing, the Agent shall provide a written statement to the Borrower, with a copy to the Lenders, showing the basis for such calculation. The Agent, the Lenders and the Borrower acknowledge that as of the Effective Date the Standard & Poor's rating of the Loans is BB- and, accordingly, the applicable margins, subject to the foregoing, are as follows: Base Rate Margin: .25% and Eurodollar Margin: 2.75%. No pricing modification pursuant to this subsection shall be applicable to any existing Eurodollar Advance prior to its expiration. The pricing modifications set forth in this subsection shall not be applicable at the time that the Default Rate is applicable. Section 3.7 Funds for Revolving Credit Loans. Not later than 2:00 p.m. (Boston time) on the proposed Drawdown Date of any Revolving Credit Advances, each of the Revolving Credit Lenders will make available to the Agent, at its Head Office, in immediately available funds, the amount of such Revolving Credit Lender's Commitment Percentage of the amount of the requested Revolving Credit Advances. Upon receipt from each Revolving Credit Lender of such amount, and upon receipt of the documents required by Section 9 and Section 10 and the satisfaction of the other conditions set forth therein, to the extent applicable, the Agent will make available to the Borrower the aggregate amount of such Revolving Credit Advances made available to the Agent by the Revolving Credit Lenders. The failure or refusal of any Revolving Credit Lender to make available to the Agent at the aforesaid time and place on any Drawdown Date the amount of its Commitment Percentage of the requested Revolving Credit Advances shall not relieve any other Revolving Credit Lender from its several obligation hereunder to make available to the Agent the amount of such other Revolving Credit Lender's Commitment Percentage of any requested Revolving Credit Advances. Section 3.8 Letters of Credit. (a) Issuance of Letters of Credit. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and the applicable Reimbursement Agreement, upon the written request of the Borrower to the Agent and the execution and delivery of a Reimbursement Agreement by the Borrower to the Agent, the Agent, on behalf of the Revolving Credit Lenders, agrees to issue with pro rata participation by the Revolving Credit Lenders on any Business Day, but prior to the Maturity Date, one (1) or more irrevocable stand-by Letters of Credit in such form as may be agreed upon by the Borrower and the Agent; provided, however, that (i) the aggregate Maximum Drawing Amount of all Letters of Credit shall not exceed $30,000,000.00 at any one time outstanding and (ii) the sum of (x) the Maximum Drawing Amount and (y) Outstanding Revolving Credit Advances shall not at any time exceed the Maximum Revolver Amount. Each written request for the issuance of a Letter of Credit hereunder shall be received by the Agent at least three (3) Business Days prior to the proposed date of issuance. The expiration dates, amounts and beneficiaries of the Letters of Credit will be as agreed by the Borrower and the Agent. No Letter of Credit shall have an expiration date later than the earlier of (i) the date one (1) year after the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit or (ii) seven (7) Business Days prior to the Maturity Date. Each Letter of Credit shall be issued pursuant to a Reimbursement Agreement to be entered into between the Borrower and the Agent (for the accounts of the Revolving Credit Lenders); provided, however, that to the extent that the terms 33
EX-10.242nd Page of 137TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 42nd
and conditions of any Reimbursement Agreement are in conflict with or are inconsistent with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the obligations of the Revolving Credit Lenders and the Borrower with respect to the Letters of Credit shall be governed by the terms and conditions of this Agreement. (b) Non-Renewal; Cash Collateral. The Agent may, at its option, elect not to renew any Letter of Credit by giving written notice of non-renewal to the Borrower at least thirty (30) days prior to the expiration date of such Letter of Credit. The Agent may, in its discretion at any time and from time to time while there exists any Default or Event of Default, make a Revolving Credit Advance in an amount equal to all or any portion of the Maximum Drawing Amount of any outstanding Letters of Credit hereunder, and hold the proceeds thereof in an interest bearing account as collateral security for such Obligations (and such account shall be subject to the Agent's right to setoff against such amounts under Section 13), provided that the Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower of such Advance and application of the proceeds thereof and further provided that all interest earned on proceeds so held shall be applied as and when available to reduce any Obligations outstanding hereunder or, if there are no Obligations outstanding, shall be paid over to the Borrower. (c) Effects of Drawings. Upon each drawing under a Letter of Credit and each termination of a Letter of Credit pursuant to its terms, the un-reimbursed amount of the drawing shall automatically be converted into a Revolving Credit Advance made on the date of such drawing or such termination. The liability of the Borrower under this Agreement to repay the Revolving Credit Lenders in respect of drawings under Letters of Credit shall be Obligations secured pursuant to the Security Documents and such liability shall rank pari passu with the obligations of the Borrower to repay all other Revolving Credit Advances hereunder. (d) Limited Advance. The Borrower shall only be entitled to a Limited Advance in the event that the Borrower or other members of the Consolidated Group are not in compliance with the provisions of Section 10.6 at any time. Section 4 SENIOR AMORTIZING TERM LOAN. Section 4.1 Commitment to Lend and Borrower's Promise to Pay. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, the Term Loan Lenders have made Loans to the Borrower with an aggregate principal amount outstanding of Two Hundred Fifty Million and no/100 Dollars ($250,000,000.00) (the "Senior Amortizing Term Loan"). The Senior Amortizing Term Loan shall mature and become due and payable on the Maturity Date. Borrower agrees to pay all Obligations on or before the Maturity Date. Section 4.2 The Senior Amortizing Term Note(s). The Senior Amortizing Term Loan shall be evidenced by separate promissory notes of the Borrower in substantially the form of Exhibit C (each, a "Senior Amortizing Term Note"), dated as of the Closing Date and completed with appropriate insertions. One (1) Senior Amortizing Term Note shall be payable to the order of the each Term Loan Lender in a principal amount equal to such Term Loan Lender's Senior Amortizing Term Loan Commitment plus interest accrued thereon, as set forth below. In the event a Senior Amortizing Term Note is lost, destroyed or mutilated at any time prior to payment 34
EX-10.243rd Page of 137TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 43rd
in full of the indebtedness evidenced thereby, the Borrower shall execute a new note substantially in the form of such Senior Amortizing Term Note. The replacement Senior Amortizing Term Note shall recite the circumstances of the reissue of the Senior Amortizing Term Note and shall state that it is a replacement promissory note. The Senior Amortizing Term Notes shall not be necessary to establish the indebtedness of the Borrower to the Term Loan Lenders on account of the Senior Amortizing Term Loan made under this Agreement. Section 4.3 Loan Account; Certain Prepayments. The Agent will open and maintain a loan account (the "Senior Amortizing Term Loan Account") on its books in the name of the Borrower. The outstanding principal amount of the Senior Amortizing Term Loan and all fees and other amounts due and payable hereunder will be debited to and each payment or prepayment on account thereof will be credited to, and shall be recorded in, the Senior Amortizing Term Loan Account. Any failure of the Agent to record a transaction in a timely fashion shall not affect or impair the validity of any Obligation. The Agent shall render to the Borrower a monthly statement of the Senior Amortizing Term Loan Account and, unless written exception thereto is taken by the Borrower within forty-five (45) days of receipt, such statement shall be conclusive and binding upon the Borrower except for manifest error; provided, however, that the failure of the Agent to render any such statement in a timely fashion shall not impair the validity or binding nature of the Senior Amortizing Term Loan Account. The Borrower shall have the right, at any time, to prepay the principal balance of the Senior Amortizing Term Loan in whole (provided each such partial payment is in a minimum amount of $1,000,000.00 and integral multiples of $100,000.00), but only upon paying, together with such prepayment, any amounts due and owing pursuant to the provisions of Section 5.8. The Borrower shall provide three (3) Business Days advance written, telegraphic or telephonic notice to the Agent prior to making any prepayment. No amounts paid by the Borrower on the Senior Amortizing Term Loan, whether required interest installments, principal installments or prepayments, may be reborrowed. Section 4.4 Interest. Subject to Section 5.8, the Senior Amortizing Term Loan shall bear interest at the following rates: (a) To the extent that all or any portion of the Senior Amortizing Term Loan bears interest with reference to the Base Rate, the Senior Amortizing Term Loan or such portion shall bear interest at the rate of one-half percent (.5%) per annum above the Base Rate. (b) To the extent that all or any portion of the Senior Amortizing Term Loan bears interest during any Eurodollar Loan Period with reference to the Eurodollar Rate, the Senior Amortizing Term Loan or such portion shall bear interest during the applicable Eurodollar Loan Period at the rate of three percent (3%) per annum above the Eurodollar Basis determined for such Eurodollar Loan Period. (c) The interest rate established in accordance with (a) and (b) above, is subject to modifications as provided in Section 3.6(c). Furthermore, the Agent, the Lenders and the 35
EX-10.244th Page of 137TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 44th
Borrower acknowledge that as of the Effective Date the Standard & Poor's rating of the Loans is BB- and, accordingly, the applicable margins, subject to the foregoing, are as follows: Base Rate Margin: .25% and Eurodollar Margin: 2.75%. (d) Interest on the Senior Amortizing Term Loan shall be payable monthly in arrears on the first Business Day of each month for the immediately preceding month, commencing on the first such date subsequent to the Effective Date, with a final payment on the Maturity Date. The Borrower hereby promises to pay interest on the Senior Amortizing Term Loan in the amount and at the times set forth herein. Section 4.5 Eurodollar Rate Determinations with respect to the Senior Amortizing Term Loan. (a) Eurodollar Portions of Senior Amortizing Term Loans. (i) Initial and Subsequent Eurodollar Portions of Senior Amortizing Term Loans. The Borrower shall give the Agent in the case of Eurodollar portions of Senior Amortizing Term Loans at least three (3) Business Days irrevocable prior notice by telephone or telecopy and shall immediately confirm any such telephone notice with a written request for conversion to a Eurodollar Loan; provided, however, that the failure by the Borrower to confirm any notice by telephone or telecopy with a request for a Eurodollar Loan shall not invalidate any notice so given. The Agent, whose determination shall be conclusive, shall determine the Eurodollar Basis as of the second (2nd) Business Day prior to the date of the requested Eurodollar Loan conversion and shall promptly notify the Borrower of the same, and the Borrower shall promptly confirm in writing receipt of such notification. The Eurodollar Loan Period for each portion of the Senior Amortizing Term Loan to be converted to a Eurodollar Loan shall in all events be either one (1), two (2) or three (3) months. Upon receipt of such notice from the Borrower, the Agent shall promptly notify each Term Loan Lender by telephone or telecopy of the contents thereof. (ii) Procedures After Expiration of Conversion to Eurodollar Loan Portion of Senior Amortizing Term Loan. At least three (3) Business Days prior to each Conversion Date, the Borrower shall give the Agent written notice specifying whether all or a portion of any Eurodollar Loan outstanding on the Conversion Date (a) is to be rolled over in whole or in part as a new Eurodollar Loan, in which case such notice shall also specify the Eurodollar Loan Period which the Borrower shall have selected for such new Eurodollar Loan, or (b) is to be converted in whole or in part as a Base Rate Loan. Upon such Conversion Date, such Eurodollar Loan will, subject to the provisions hereof, be so rolled over or converted. (iii) Limitations as to Eurodollar Loans. Each Eurodollar Loan with respect to the Senior Amortizing Term Loan shall be in a principal amount of no less than $1,000,000.00 and in integral multiples of $100,000.00, and at no time shall the aggregate number of all such Eurodollar Loans then outstanding exceed three (3). Requests for Eurodollar Loans may be made daily, provided the Borrower satisfies all notice requirements as provided for herein. 36
EX-10.245th Page of 137TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 45th
(b) The provisions of Section 3.5(e) as to Advances under the Revolving Credit Loan shall also apply to the Eurodollar portions of the Senior Amortizing Term Loan. (c) The provisions of this Section 4.5(c) shall not operate as a reborrowing or repayment of the Senior Amortizing Term Loan subject to reborrowing but shall in all instances constitute an option of the Borrower to convert a portion of the Indebtedness included in the Senior Amortizing Term Loan to a Eurodollar Loan. In this instance, the applicable Eurodollar Loan shall be a portion of the Senior Amortizing Term Loan and shall not constitute a readvance of all or any portion of the Senior Amortizing Term Loan. The Borrower and Agent acknowledge and recognize that all proceeds of the Senior Amortizing Term Loan have been advanced on even date and are not subject to readvancement. Section 4.6 Principal. The Borrower shall make mandatory principal installment payments to the Agent on account of the Senior Amortizing Term Loan in the minimum aggregate amount of $5,000,000.00 on each January 31 and July 31 during the term of the Senior Amortizing Term Loan, commencing January 31, 2002 (the "Minimum Senior Amortizing Term Loan Paydowns"). The outstanding principal balance of the Senior Amortizing Term Loan shall be payable in periodic installments in accordance with the provisions of Section 7.2. All amounts applied by the Agent to the outstanding principal balance of the Senior Amortizing Term Loan under Section 7.3 shall be credited against the Minimum Senior Amortizing Term Loan Paydowns in chronological order. The Borrower shall pay the unpaid balance of each annual Minimum Senior Amortizing Term Loan Paydown in a single payment on January 31, 2002 and on every July 31 and January 31 thereafter during the term of the Senior Amortizing Term Loan. In the event the Borrower has not made the Minimum Senior Amortizing Term Loan Paydowns when due, the Agent may (but shall not be required to) make a Revolving Credit Advance in an amount equal to the amount of the Minimum Senior Amortizing Term Loan Paydown then due. In the event that the Borrowing Base is insufficient to support the existing amount of the outstanding principal balance of the Loans, the Borrower shall also make a mandatory principal payment in the amount required to cause the Borrowing Base to be sufficient to justify the amount of outstanding principal balance of the Loans. Section 5 FEES. Section 5.1 Origination Fee. The Borrower has paid to Fleet and Lead Arranger the fees in accordance with the Fee and Expense Agreement (collectively, "Origination Fee"). Section 5.2 Commitment Fee. Borrower shall pay to the Agent, a commitment fee ("Commitment Fee") payable quarterly in arrears on the first day of the succeeding Fiscal Quarter and on the Maturity Date. The Commitment Fee shall be distributed, pro rata, to the Lenders in accordance with their respective Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage. The amount of the Commitment Fee shall be calculated as follows: for any Fiscal Quarter, the product of the Applicable Commitment Fee Percentage times the Average Daily Non-Usage Amount. The Applicable Commitment Fee Percentage shall be identified as follows: (a) One-half percent (.5%), if the Average Daily Non-Usage Amount 37
EX-10.246th Page of 137TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 46th
is greater than sixty percent (60%) of the Scheduled Revolving Credit Commitment Amount; or (b) Three-tenths percent (.3%), if otherwise. Section 5.3 Agent's Fee. The Borrower shall pay to Fleet annually, in advance, for the Agent's own account, an Agent's Fee in accordance with the Fee and Expense Agreement ("Agent's Fee"). Section 5.4 Letter of Credit Fee. The Borrower shall pay to the Agent a fee (collectively, "Letter of Credit Fee") for each Letter of Credit issued pursuant to this Agreement to be calculated at the rate of one and three-fourths percent (1.75%) per annum on the Maximum Drawing Amount, plus the Agent's customary issuance fee, payable in accordance with the Agent's standard fee schedule. The Letter of Credit Fee shall be payable quarterly in arrears on the first day of the succeeding calendar quarter succeeding the date of issuance and upon the date of renewal for the renewal term of any Letter of Credit. Upon receipt of such Letter of Credit Fee (but not issuance fee), the Agent shall remit to each Revolving Credit Lender that has a Revolving Credit Commitment its pro rata portion of the Letter of Credit Fee based on its percentage of the Revolving Credit Commitment less one-eighth (.125%) percent. Section 5.5 Additional Amounts Payable on Account of Credit Facilities. The Agent or any Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower if any Lender or the Agent shall have determined that any applicable law enacted by the United States, any federal agency, any state, or political subdivision thereof, including any rule, regulation, guideline, directive or request regarding capital requirements for banks or bank holding companies or subsidiaries of bank holding companies, or any change therein or in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency in the United States charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by the Lender or the Agent with any of the foregoing, (collectively, "Applicable Laws") imposes or increases a requirement by any Lender or the Agent to allocate capital resources to the commitment of such Lender to make or issue, or to the maintenance by such Lender or the Agent of, Loans hereunder, and such Lender or Agent has determined in good faith that would have the effect of reducing the return on the capital of such Lender or the Agent to a level below that which such Lender or the Agent could have achieved (taking into consideration the then existing policies of such Lender or the Agent with respect to capital adequacy and assuming full utilization of the capital of such Lender or the Agent) but for such applicability, change, interpretation, administration or compliance, by any amount deemed in good faith by such Lender or the Agent to be material, and which is not reflected in an increase in the Base Rate or Eurodollar Basis, as the case may be. The Borrower and such Lender or as the case may be, shall thereafter attempt to negotiate in good faith an adjustment to the compensation payable hereunder which will adequately compensate such Lender for such modification. If the Borrower and such Lender are unable to agree to such adjustment within ninety (90) days of the day on which the Borrower shall receive such written notice, then commencing on the date of such notice (but not earlier than the effective date of any such applicability, change, interpretation, administration or compliance), then the fees payable hereunder shall increase by an amount which will, in the reasonable determination of such Lender, compensate such Lender for such modification. In determining the amount of income, the Lender may use any reasonable and equitable methods of averaging, allocating or attributing 38
EX-10.247th Page of 137TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 47th
such modification among its customers. The affected Lender shall deliver to the Borrower a certificate demonstrating the calculation of the amount of such increased fees. The Borrower shall be required to pay the increased amount within fifteen (15) days after its receipt of such certificate. Section 5.6 Additional Costs and Expenses; Reserve Requirements. If any Applicable Laws shall: (a) subject any Lender or the Agent to any tax (other than income tax), levy, impost, duty, charge, fee, deduction or withholding of any nature with respect to the Loans or deposits obtained to fund Loans; or (b) materially change the basis of taxation of payments to any Lender of the principal of or the interest on the Loans or any other amounts payable to any Lender hereunder (other than changes relating to taxes based on the net income of such Lender or the Agent); or (c) impose or render applicable any special deposit or reserve or similar requirement (whether or not having the force of law) against the Loans or loans of the type contemplated hereby made by the Lenders; or (d) impose on any Lender any other conditions or requirements with respect to the Loans or any class of loans of which the Loans form a part, and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to any Lender of making the Loans or Revolving Credit Advances, or to reduce the amount of principal, interest, or other amount payable to such Lender or the Agent hereunder, or to require such Lender to make any payment or to forego any interest or other sum payable hereunder, and which is not reflected in an increase in the Base Rate or Eurodollar Basis, as the case may be, the amount of which payment or foregone interest or other sum is calculated by reference to the gross amount of any sum receivable or deemed received by such Lender from the Borrower hereunder, then, such Lender will notify the Borrower within ninety (90) days of the date of the actual knowledge of the Lender of the occurrence of such event, and the Borrower and such Lender shall thereafter attempt to negotiate in good faith an adjustment to the compensation payable hereunder which will adequately compensate such Lender for such reduction or payment. If the Lender and the Borrower are unable to agree to such adjustment within ninety (90) days of the date of such notice, the Borrower will, upon written demand made by such Lender at any time and from time to time thereafter, pay to such Lender such additional amounts as will be sufficient in the good faith opinion of such Lender to compensate the Lender for such additional cost, reduction, payment or foregone interest or other sum. In determining the amount of such compensation, such Lender or the Agent may use any reasonable and equitable methods of averaging, allocating or attributing such amounts to its customers. The affected Lender shall deliver to the Borrower a certificate demonstrating the calculation of the amount of such increased payment. The Borrower shall pay such amount within fifteen (15) days after its receipt of this certificate. 39
EX-10.248th Page of 137TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 48th
Section 5.7 Indemnification. If, due to prepayments made by Borrower or due to acceleration of the maturity date of any Eurodollar Loans pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, or due to any other reason, including without limitation the events specified above, but subject to the provisions of Section 3.5 (e) (ii), the Agent receives payments of principal other than on a required principal payments due date under this Agreement, the Borrower shall, upon demand by the Agent, pay to the Agent any amounts required to compensate any Lender for any losses, costs or expenses which such Lender may reasonably incur as a result of such prepayment, including without limitation, any loss, costs or expenses incurred by reason of liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender to fund or maintain its portion of the Eurodollar Loans. Such compensation and the compensation provided for elsewhere in this Agreement shall include, without limitation, an amount calculated as follows: (a) First, the Agent shall determine the amount by which (i) the total amount of interest which would have otherwise accrued hereunder on each installment of principal so paid, during the period beginning on the date of such payment and ending on the date such installment would have been due (the "Reemployment Period"), exceeds (ii) the total amount of interest which would accrue during the Reemployment Period, on a deposit in the interbank Eurodollar borrowing market in an amount equal (as nearly as may be) to the amount of principal so paid and to have a maturity comparable to the Reemployment Period. Each such amount is hereafter referred to as an "Installment Amount." (b) Second, each Installment Amount shall be treated as payable as of the date on which the related principal installment would have been payable by the Borrower had such principal installment not been prepaid. (c) Third, the amount to be paid on each such date shall be the present value of the Installment Amount determined by discounting the amount thereof from the date on which such Installment Amount is to be treated as payable, at the same annual interest rate as that payable upon the interbank Eurodollar deposit designated as aforesaid by the Agent. (d) Fourth, no portion of the principal installments required pursuant to Section 4.6 and Section 7.2 shall be considered prepayments of the principal of the Eurodollar Loans. The application by the Agent to the Eurodollar Loans principal of any proceeds of insurance or awards from condemnation or other taking by eminent domain shall be not considered a prepayment of the principal of the Eurodollar Loans pursuant to this Section 5.7. Section 5.8 Interest on Overdue Amounts. Overdue principal and (to the extent permitted by applicable law) interest on the Loans and all other overdue amounts payable hereunder arising from the occurrence of an Event of Default shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to five percent (5%) plus the Base Rate, compounded daily and payable on demand, to accrue from the due date thereof until the Obligation of the Borrower with respect to the payment thereof shall be discharged, whether before or after judgment ("Default Rate"). Section 6 PAYMENTS; COMPUTATIONS; AND INTEREST LIMITATION. 40

As provided in Section 3.5(a), whenever any such Obligation is due and payable, the Agent may (but shall not be required to) make a Revolving Credit Advance in the amount of such Obligation and apply the proceeds of the Revolving Credit Advance to the payment of the Obligation, provided that the Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower of any such Revolving Credit Advance and the application of the proceeds thereof. Upon receipt by the Agent of any such payment of principal, interest or fees (other than fees or expenses to be retained by Agent pursuant to the terms thereof), the Agent shall, subject to the applicable settlement provisions of Section 18.5, remit to each other Lender its applicable pro rata share of such payment. Section 6.2 Computations. All computations of (a) interest on the Loans, (b) the Fees, and (c) any other amount due hereunder shall be based on a three hundred sixty (360) day year and paid for the actual number of days elapsed. Whenever a payment hereunder becomes due on a day which 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. Section 6.3 Interest Limitation. Notwithstanding any other term of this Agreement or any other document referred to herein or therein, the maximum amount of interest which may be charged to or collected from any person liable hereunder by the Agent shall be absolutely limited to, and shall in no event exceed, the maximum amount of interest which could lawfully be charged or collected under applicable law, so that the maximum of all amounts constituting interest under applicable law, howsoever computed, shall never exceed as to any person liable therefor such lawful maximum, and any term of this Agreement or any other document referred to herein or therein which could be construed as providing for interest in excess of such lawful maximum shall be and hereby is made expressly subject to and modified by the provisions of this paragraph. Section 7 SECURITY, GUARANTIES AND DEPOSITORY ACCOUNT. Section 7.1 Security. The Obligations shall be secured by a blanket perfected first in priority security interest (subject only to Permitted Liens) in favor of the Agent for the benefit of each of the Lenders on all of the assets of the Property Owners and the Pledgor Subsidiaries. The Borrower hereby warrants that it is compliance with the provisions of the foregoing sentence of this Section 7.1 except for the assets described in Schedule 7.1 which are encumbered by liens in favor of Persons other than the Agent.

Section 7.2 Guaranty.

(a) Borrower shall establish at one (1) or more banking institutions selected by Borrower and approved by the Agent (each called a "Depository") special deposit accounts in the name of Borrower and for the benefit of the Agent from which withdrawals may be made only to the Working Capital Account (each called a "Depository Account"). Unless otherwise directed by the Agent, at the close of each Business Day, the Consolidated Group shall promptly deposit all cash, checks and other payments or proceeds received by it from the operation of its business or the Properties and all payments made under any Housing Purchase Agreement, other than deposits required to be held in third party escrows, Receivable or other agreement or instrument assigned to the Agent as Collateral directly into the Depository Account. The Agent may, following written notice to the Borrower, revoke the designation of any Depository Account or designate substitute or additional Depository Accounts. The foregoing requirement shall not be applicable to a member of the Consolidated Group at any time that it is a party to a Permitted Lien which requires payment of its cash in a manner contrary to the provisions of this Section 7.3. (b) Until the Agent, by written notice to the Borrower given at any 42
EX-10.251st Page of 137TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 51st
time, requests that the obligors under the Collateral Documents be notified of the Agent's security interest, the Borrower shall cause all payments due thereunder to be made to a Depository Account or to specified post office boxes or other locations approved by the Agent. The Consolidated Group shall hold all proceeds of collection received by it at any time as trustee for the Lenders without commingling the same with other funds of any member of the Consolidated Group and shall turn such funds over to the Agent, or deposit such funds in a Depository Account, immediately upon receipt in the identical form received. Upon the occurrence of a Default, the Agent may, at any time and at its option, exercisable by notice to the Borrower, direct all or any member of the Consolidated Group to cease collection of payments made to such designated locations, and allow the Agent sole access to such locations for the purpose of accepting and collecting such payments and applying the collected proceeds to reduce the Obligations. The Consolidated Group shall, following the occurrence of a Default or Event of Default hereunder, if requested to do so by the Agent, notify the obligors under the Collateral Documents of the security interest of the Agent therein and that payments due thereunder are to be made directly to the Agent. At any time after making such a request of the Borrower, the Agent may itself, without further notice to or demand upon the Borrower, so notify the obligors under the Collateral Documents. The collection of payments directly by the Agent in any manner permitted hereunder shall in no respect affect the duties of the Consolidated Group (i) to continue to render all reasonable assistance to the Agent in the collection of amounts due under the Collateral Documents and (ii) to fulfill its obligations as trustee for the Lenders described above with respect to proceeds of collection of amounts under any Collateral Documents and other payments received by the Consolidated Group. (c) In the event that (i) no Default or Event of Default exists; (ii) Unfunded Revolving Credit Availability is equal to $200,000,000.00; and (iii) a Property Owner has received net sales proceeds from the sale of any Collateral pursuant to the terms hereof, then upon all of such conditions occurring, the Borrower shall be entitled to deposit an unlimited amount of such net proceeds in the Working Capital Account rather than applying such proceeds as a prepayment to the Senior Amortizing Term Loan. Upon deposit, the funds shall be applied in accordance with and governed by the other provisions of this Agreement applicable to proceeds in the Working Capital Account. (d) The proceeds of the Depository Accounts shall be paid to the Working Capital Account either: (i) at the direction of the Agent upon the occurrence of a Default or Event of Default or (ii) or, otherwise, at such times and procedures as the Agent may from time to time direct. The Agent shall credit the proceeds of collection and other monies received by it hereunder as follows: (i) If no Default or Event of Default then exists, or unless directed by the Borrower to apply such proceeds to reduce the Revolving Credit Loan or Senior Amortizing Term Loan, the proceeds shall be transferred to a checking account maintained by the Borrower in its name with the Agent at the Agent's Head Office (herein called the "Working Capital Account"), subject to the limitation that the balance available to the Borrower in the Working Capital Account shall at no time exceed $10,000,000.00. Any excess amounts paid to or held by the Agent either in the Working Capital Account or otherwise shall be applied against the Loans in accordance with the provisions hereof. The amounts on deposit at any time in the 43
EX-10.252nd Page of 137TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 52nd
Working Capital Account shall serve as collateral security for the Obligations and shall be subject to the Lenders' right of setoff under Section 13, and shall not be subject to the one (1) day notice required in the next sentence. Prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default or the termination of those rights at the Agent's unilateral recission of such rights, upon one (1) day notice to Borrower by Agent, the Borrower shall be entitled to draw upon funds in the Working Capital Account for any purpose for which it would be entitled to use proceeds of the Loans. All funds held in the Working Capital Account shall be invested by the Agent at the direction of the Borrower in obligations issued or guaranteed by the United States of America or in repurchase agreements for such securities or as otherwise agreed by the Agent, and the Borrower from time to time and all income and expense thereof shall be paid to or by Borrower as received or incurred by deposit or charge thereof to the Working Capital Account. (ii) To the extent such proceeds are not deposited in the Working Capital Account pursuant to (i) above, such proceeds shall be credited to reduce the Revolving Credit Loan and the Senior Amortizing Term Loan in such order as Borrower may direct. Such credits shall be entered on the first Business Day after receipt thereof by the Agent at the Agent's Head Office in immediately available funds. (iii) To the extent such proceeds are not credited to reduce the Revolving Credit Loan or the Senior Amortizing Term Loan or deposited in the Working Capital Account pursuant to (i) or (ii) above, such proceeds shall be credited to other Obligations then outstanding as of the first Business Day after receipt by the Agent at the Agent's Head Office in immediately available funds. If no Default or Event of Default is ongoing and uncured, Borrower may, subject to the limitations herein, direct the application of such proceeds to specific Obligations. (iv) If after applying the available proceeds in the manner described in (i), (ii) and (iii) above, there are no Obligations outstanding, and there exists no Default or Event of Default, such proceeds shall be deposited to the Working Capital Account (whether or not such deposit shall increase the available balance therein to an amount greater than $10,000,000.00) and shall be invested and available for use by the Borrower as provided in (i) above. (v) For so long as there is an ongoing and uncured Default or Event of Default, all such proceeds shall be credited to reduce the Loans proportionately, such credits to be entered as of the first Business Day after receipt thereof by the Agent at the Agent's Head Office in immediately available funds. Prior to the pendency of a Default, all such proceeds shall be applied against the Revolving Credit Loan and thereafter, at the Borrower's election, in accordance with the provisions of Section 7.2 (c). Any funds not applied in accordance with the previous sentence shall be applied to the Senior Amortizing Term Loan. The provisions of this Section 7.3 are subject to the provisions of Section 12.5.

in any certificate or instrument hereafter furnished to it by or on behalf of the Borrower or other Property Owners, or be bound to ascertain or inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, conditions, covenants or agreements herein or in any instrument at any time constituting, or intended to constitute, collateral security for the Notes.

If a court of competent jurisdiction shall adjudge that any amount received and distributed by the Agent is to be repaid, each Person to whom any such distribution shall have been made shall either repay to the Agent its proportionate share of the amount so adjudged to be repaid or shall pay over the same in such manner and to such Persons as shall be determined by such court. (c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, any Lender that fails (i) to make available to the Agent its pro rata share of any Loan or Revolving Credit Advance or (ii) to comply with the provisions of Section 13 with respect to making dispositions and arrangements with the other Lenders, where such Lender's share of any payment received, whether by setoff or otherwise, is in excess of its pro rata share of such payments due and payable to all of the Lenders, in each case as, when and to the full extent required by the provisions of this Agreement, shall be deemed delinquent (a "Delinquent Lender") and shall be deemed a Delinquent Lender until such time as such delinquency is satisfied. A Delinquent Lender shall be deemed to have assigned any and all payments due to it from the Borrower, whether on account of Outstanding Loans, unpaid reimbursement Obligations, interest, fees or otherwise, to the remaining nondelinquent Lenders for application to, and reduction of, their respective pro rata shares of all Outstanding Loans. The Delinquent Lender hereby authorizes the Agent to distribute such payments to the nondelinquent Lenders in proportion to their respective pro rata shares of all Outstanding Loans. A Delinquent Lender shall be deemed to have satisfied in full a delinquency when and if, as a result of application of the assigned payments to all Outstanding Loans of the nondelinquent 87
EX-10.296th Page of 137TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 96th
Lenders, the Lenders' respective pro rata shares of all Outstanding Loans have returned to those in effect immediately prior to such delinquency and without giving effect to the nonpayment causing such delinquency. Section 18.6 Holders of Notes. The Agent may deem and treat the payee of any Note as the absolute owner or purchaser thereof for all purposes hereof until it shall have been furnished in writing with a different name by such payee or by a subsequent holder, assignee or transferee. Section 18.7 Indemnity. The Lenders ratably agree hereby to indemnify and hold harmless the Agent from and against any and all claims, actions and suits (whether groundless or otherwise), losses, damages, costs, expenses (including any expenses for which the Agent has not been reimbursed by the Borrower as required by Section 15), and liabilities of every nature and character arising out of or related to this Agreement, the Notes, or any of the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated or evidenced hereby or thereby, or the Agent's actions taken hereunder or thereunder, except to the extent that any of the same shall be directly caused by the Agent's willful misconduct or gross negligence. Section 18.8 Agent as Lender. In its individual capacity, Fleet shall have the same obligations and the same rights, powers and privileges in respect to its Commitment and the Loans made by it, and as the holder of any of the Notes as it would have were it not also the Agent. Section 18.9 Resignation. The Agent may resign at any time by giving sixty (60) days prior written notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrower. Upon any such resignation, the Majority Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Agent. Unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, such successor Agent shall be reasonably acceptable to the Borrower. If no successor Agent shall have been so appointed by the Majority Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the retiring Agent's giving of notice of resignation, then the retiring Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Agent, which shall be a financial institution having a rating of not less than A-2 or its equivalent by Standard & Poor's Corporation. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Agent hereunder by a successor Agent, such successor Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. After any retiring Agent's resignation, the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall continue in effect for its benefit in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as Agent. Section 18.10 Notification of Defaults and Events of Default. Each Lender hereby agrees to promptly notify the Agent upon learning of the existence of a Default or an Event of Default. The Agent hereby agrees to promptly notify the other Lenders if it is aware of the existence of such Default or Event of Default. Section 18.11 Duties in the Case of Enforcement. In case one or more Events of Default have occurred and shall be continuing, and whether or not acceleration of the Obligations shall have occurred, the Agent shall, if (a) so requested by the Majority Lenders and (b) the Lenders, or such portion as acceptable to the Agent have provided to the Agent such additional 88

indemnities and assurances against expenses and liabilities as the Agent may reasonably request, proceed to enforce the provisions of the Security Documents authorizing the foreclosure of the Mortgage and the sale or other disposition of all or any part of the Collateral and exercise all or any such other legal and equitable and other rights or remedies as it may have in respect of such Collateral. The Majority Lenders may direct the Agent in writing as to the method and the extent of any such sale or other disposition. The Lenders hereby agree to indemnify and hold the Agent harmless from all liabilities incurred in respect of all actions taken or omitted in accordance with such directions. The Agent need not comply with any such direction to the extent that the Agent reasonably believes the Agent's compliance with such direction to be unlawful or commercially unreasonable in any applicable jurisdiction. Agent may, in its discretion, but without obligation, in the absence of direction from the Majority Lenders, take such interim actions as it believes necessary to preserve the Collateral and the rights of the Lenders therein. Such actions may include, but shall not be limited to, petitioning a court for injunctive relief, appointment of a receiver or sequestration of proceeds of the Properties. Section 18.12 Bankruptcy of Borrower. In the event a bankruptcy or other insolvency proceeding is commenced by or against Borrower, Agent shall have the sole and exclusive right to file and pursue a joint proof of claim on behalf of all Lenders. Each Lender irrevocably waives its right to file or pursue a separate proof of claim in any such proceedings. Section 18.13 Disclosure. Agent hereby discloses to the Lenders that it is an affiliate of FleetBoston Investments, which owns an interest in CILP. The Lenders hereby acknowledge: the foregoing disclosure and that FleetBoston Investments, as an owner of CILP, may take actions which may conflict with actions taken by Fleet as Agent. The Lenders agree that the Agent is hereby authorized by the Lenders to continue in the capacity as Agent and to fulfill the role of Agent hereunder notwithstanding its affiliation with FleetBoston Investments, and that Fleet, as Agent, will not be liable to the Lenders for actions taken by FleetBoston Investments. Section 18.14 Lead Arranger. Consolidated Group acknowledges and agrees that FleetBoston Robertson Stephens Inc. has acted as Lead Arranger in connection with these Loans. The relevant Agent indemnification provisions contained herein shall also protect Lead Arranger. Section 18.15 Documentation Agent and Co-Agents. The Documentation Agent and each Co-Agent acknowledge that Agent is acting as "Lead Agent" under this Agreement and that the Documentation Agent and either Co-Agent shall have no duties or responsibilities except those that may be requested from time to time by the Agent and accepted in writing by the Documentation Agent or either Co-Agent. Section 19 ASSIGNMENT. Section 19.1 Conditions to Assignment by Lenders. Except as provided herein, each Lender may assign to one (1) or more Eligible Assignees all or a portion of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment Percentage and Commitment and the same portion of the Loans at the time owing to it, and the Notes held by it); provided that (a) the Agent shall have given its prior written consent to such assignment, (b) each such assignment shall be of a constant, and not a varying, percentage of all the assigning 89

Nothing contained herein shall prohibit the assignment of participation interests by a Lender to an affiliate controlled by such Lender provided that all voting rights and funding obligations are retained by such Lender and the Lender provides notice of the participation and copies of the participation documents to the Agent. Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and recording, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, which effective date shall be at least five (5) Business Days after the execution thereof, but in no event prior to recording (i) the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent provided in such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder, and (ii) the assigning Lender shall, to the extent provided in such assignment and upon payment to the Agent of the registration fee referred to in Section 19.3, be released from its further obligations under this Agreement with respect to the interest assigned. Fleet may assign portions of its rights under this Agreement so that the Fleet holds a minimum portion of the Loans of $20,000,000.00. With Agent's consent, each Lender may at any time assign or pledge its Loan or Note to a Federal Reserve Bank, and a Lender, which is a "fund," may at any time assign or pledge all or any portion of its rights under this Credit Agreement to secure such Lender's indebtedness, in each case without the prior written consent of the Borrower, provided that each such assignment shall be made in accordance with applicable law and shall be either to a Federal Reserve Bank or Eligible Assignee, and no such assignment shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder. In order to facilitate any such assignment, the Borrower shall, at the request of the assigning Lender, duly execute a registered promissory note or notes evidencing the Obligations made or extended to the Borrowers by the assigning Lender hereunder, provided that the assignment is otherwise in compliance with the terms hereof. For avoidance of doubt, the parties to this Agreement acknowledge that the provisions of this subsection concerning assignments do not prohibit assignments creating security interests, including, without limitation, any pledge or assignment by a Lender of any Loan or Note to any Federal Reserve Bank in accordance with applicable law and the terms hereof.

The Agent shall maintain a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register or similar list (the "Register") for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and the Commitment Percentages of, and principal amount of the Loans owing to the Lenders from time to time as a condition to the effectiveness thereof. All assignments of Loans or Commitments must be reported to the Agent to permit registration in the Register. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, in the absence of manifest error, and the Borrower, the Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and the Lenders at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. Upon each such recordation, (i) the assigning Lender agrees to pay to the Agent a registration fee in the sum of $5,000.00 and (ii) the Agent will deliver a copy of the Register to the Borrower.

The surrendered Notes shall be canceled and returned to the Borrower. Section 19.5 No Assignment by Borrower. The Borrower shall not assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations under any of the Loan Documents without the prior written consent of each of the Lenders. Section 19.6 Disclosure. Each Lender agrees to take normal and reasonable precautions and exercise due care to maintain the confidentiality of all information identified as "confidential" or "secret" by the Borrower and provided to it by the Borrower, or by the Agent on Borrower's behalf, under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, and neither it nor any of its affiliates shall use any such information other than in connection with or in enforcement of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; except to the extent such information (i) was or becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of disclosure by the Lender, or (ii) was or becomes available on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the Borrower, provided that such source is not bound by a confidentiality agreement with the Borrower known to the Lender; provided, however, that any Lender may disclose such information (a) at the request or pursuant to any requirement of any Governmental Authority to which the Lender is subject or in connection with an examination of such Lender by any such authority; (b) pursuant to subpoena or other court process; (c) when required to do so in accordance with the provisions of any applicable requirement of law; (d) to the extent reasonably required in connection with any litigation or proceeding to which the Agent, any Lender or their respective affiliates may be party; (e) to the extent reasonably required in connection with the exercise of any remedy hereunder or under any other Loan Document; (f) to such Lender's independent auditors and other professional advisors; (g) to any participant or assignee, actual or potential, provided that such Person agrees in writing to keep such information confidential to the same extent required of the Lenders hereunder, and (h) as to any Lender, as expressly permitted under the terms of any other document or agreement regarding confidentiality to which the Borrower is party or is deemed party with such Lender. Section 19.7 Withholding Tax. (a) If any Lender is a "foreign corporation, partnership or trust" within the meaning of the Code and such Lender claims exemption from, or a reduction of, U.S. withholding tax under Sections 1441 or 1442 of the Code, such Lender agrees with and in favor of the Agent, to deliver to the Agent: (i) if such Lender claims an exemption from, or a reduction of, 92
EX-10.2101st Page of 137TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 101st
withholding tax under a United States tax treaty, properly completed IRS Forms 1001 and W-8 before the payment of any interest in the first calendar year and before the payment of any interest in each third succeeding calendar year during which interest may be paid under this Agreement; (ii) if such Lender claims that interest paid under this Agreement is exempt from United States withholding tax because it is effectively connected with a United States trade or business of such Lender, two (2) properly completed and executed copies of IRS Form 4224 before the payment of any interest is due in the first taxable year of such Lender and in each succeeding taxable year of such Lender during which interest may be paid under this Agreement, and IRS Form W-9; (iii) such other form or forms as may be required under the Code or other laws of the United States as a condition to exemption from, or reduction of, United States withholding tax; and (iv) in the case of any Lender claiming exemption from U.S. Withholding Tax under Sections 871(b) or 881(c) of the Code, with respect to payments of "Portfolio Interest," a Form W-8, or any subsequent versions thereof or successors thereto, and if the Lender delivers a Form W-8, a certificate representing that such Lender is not a bank for purposes of Section 881(c) of the Code, is not a ten percent (10%) shareholder (within the meaning of Section 871(h)(3)(b) of the Code) of the Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof, and is not a controlled foreign corporation related to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (within the meaning of Section 864(d)(4) of the Code). Each such certificate and form shall be properly completed and duly executed by such Lender claiming complete exemption from a reduced rate of U.S. Withholding Tax on payments by the Borrower under this Agreement and other Loan Documents. Such Lender agrees to promptly notify the Agent of any change in circumstances which would modify or render invalid any claimed exemption or reduction. (b) If any Lender claims exemption from, or reduction of, withholding tax under a United States tax treaty by providing IRS Form 1001, and such Lender sells, assigns, grants a participation in, or otherwise transfers all or part of the Obligations of the Borrower to such Lender, such Lender agrees to notify the Agent of the percentage amount in which it is no longer the beneficial owner of Obligations of the Borrower to such Lender. To the extent of such percentage amount, the Agent will treat such Lender's IRS Form 1001 as no longer valid. (c) If any Lender claiming exemption from United States withholding tax by filing IRS Form 4224 with the Agent sells, assigns, grants a participation in, or otherwise transfers all or part of the Obligations of the Borrower to such Lender, such Lender agrees to undertake sole responsibility for complying with the withholding tax requirements imposed by Sections 1441 and 1442 of the Code. (d) If any Lender is entitled to a reduction in the applicable withholding tax, the Agent may withhold from any interest payment to such Lender an amount 93
EX-10.2102nd Page of 137TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 102nd
equivalent to the applicable withholding tax after taking into account such reduction. If the forms or other documentation required by subsection (a) of this Section 19.7 are not delivered to the Agent, then the Agent may withhold from any interest payment to such Lender not providing such forms or other documentation an amount equivalent to the applicable withholding tax. (e) If the IRS or any other Governmental Authority of the United States or other jurisdiction asserts a claim that the Agent did not properly withhold tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender (because the appropriate form was not delivered, was not properly executed, or because such Lender failed to notify the Agent of a change in circumstances which rendered the exemption from, or reduction of, withholding tax ineffective, or for any other reason) such Lender shall indemnify the Agent fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Agent as tax or otherwise, including penalties and interest, and including any taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on the amounts payable to the Agent under this Section 19.7, together with all costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and legal expenses). The obligation of the Lenders under this subsection (e) shall survive the payment of all Obligations and the resignation or replacement of the Agent. (f) Certain Lenders that may enter into this Agreement from and after even date may be unable to comply with the indemnity provision of Section 19.7(e). In the event that the Agent agrees in the applicable Assignment and Acceptance for any subsequent Lender, then such Lender shall be governed by and shall comply with the provisions of this Section 19.7(f) rather than Section 19.7(e). In addition to any other rights of offset contained in this Agreement or under any applicable law, in the event that any amounts would otherwise be covered by an indemnity under Section 19.7(e) from such Lenders, such as U.S. Withholding Tax due and payable and any penalties or interest with respect thereto and fees and expenses of collection, then in such event, the Agent shall be authorized to offset any such amounts against the amounts payable to such Lenders hereunder until otherwise indemnified amounts are fully paid. The right of offset contained herein shall be in addition to and shall not limit or otherwise waive or diminish any right or remedy that the Agent may have against such Lenders under any applicable law. Section 20 NOTICES, ETC. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, all notices and other communications made or required to be given pursuant to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall be in writing and shall be (i) delivered in hand, (ii) mailed by United States registered or certified first-class mail, postage prepaid, or (iii) sent by telegraph or telex and confirmed by letter mailed on the same Business Day, or (iv) sent by Federal Express or other nationally recognized overnight delivery service, addressed as follows: (a) if to the Borrower: WCI Communities, Inc. 24301 Walden Center Drive Bonita Springs, Florida 34134 Attention: Steven C.

The parties hereto agree that they will negotiate in good faith to replace any provision held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable with a valid provision which is as similar as possible in substance to the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision. Section 27 WAIVER. The Borrower, the Agent and the Lenders hereby mutually knowingly, voluntarily, and intentionally waive any right any of them may have to a trial by jury in respect of any litigation (including, but not limited to, any claims, cross-claims, or third party claims) arising out of, under or in connection with the Agreement, the Notes, the Mortgage, the other Loan Documents, or the transactions contemplated therein or herein. The Borrower, the Agent and the Lenders certify to each other party that no representative or agent of any party hereto nor counsel of any such party has represented, expressly or otherwise, that such party would not, in the event of such litigation, seek to enforce this waiver of right to jury trial provision. Section 28 RIGHTS OF THIRD PARTIES. All conditions to the performance of the obligations of the Agent and the Lenders under this Agreement, including the obligation to make Revolving Credit Advances, are imposed solely and exclusively for the benefit of the Agent and the Lenders. No other Person shall have standing to require satisfaction of such conditions in accordance with their terms or be entitled to assume that the Agent and the Lenders will refuse to make Revolving Credit Advances in the absence of strict compliance with any or all conditions. No other Person shall, under any circumstances, be deemed to be a beneficiary of such conditions. Any and all of the conditions may be freely waived, in whole or in part, by the Agent and the Lenders at any time if in their sole discretion they deem it desirable to do so. In particular, the Agent and the Lenders make no representations and assume no obligations as to third parties concerning the quality of the construction by the Property Owners of the Projects. Section 29 RELATIONSHIP. 99
EX-10.2108th Page of 137TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 108th
The relationship between the Lenders and the Borrower is solely that of a lender and borrower, and nothing contained herein or in any of the other Loan Documents shall in any manner be construed as making the parties hereto partners, joint venturers or any other relationship other than lender and borrower. Section 30 EXISTING CREDIT AGREEMENT WAIVERS AND RELEASE. Agent hereby confirms the waivers previously provided by the Agent with respect to provisions of the Existing Credit Agreements or the Credit Agreement. The Consolidated Group shall execute and deliver in favor of Agent, at Closing, a general release of all liabilities whatsoever. Section 31 TIME OF THE ESSENCE.
