measuring compliance with ARTICLE V (FINANCIAL COVENANTS) shall, unless
expressly otherwise provided herein, be made in conformity with GAAP, except for
the use of purchase accounting principles (as set forth in Statements 16 (Prior
Period Adjustments) and 17 (Accounting for Leases) of the U.S. Financial Account
Standards Board and the U.S. Statements of Financial Accounting Standards 142
(regarding the elimination of goodwill amortization) and 143 (regarding
accounting for asset-retirement obligations)) and for the classification as
liabilities mandatorily redeemable Stock and other debt-like financial
instruments (as set forth in the U.S. Statement of Financial Accounting Standard
150).
(b) If any change in the accounting principles used in the
preparation of the most recent Financial Statements referred to in SECTION 6.1
(FINANCIAL STATEMENTS) is hereafter required or permitted by the rules,
regulations, pronouncements and opinions of the Financial Accounting Standards
Board or the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (or any
successors thereto) and such change is adopted by the Parent or any of its
Subsidiaries with the agreement of the Borrower's Accountants and results in a
change in any of the calculations required by ARTICLE V (FINANCIAL COVENANTS) or
VIII (NEGATIVE COVENANTS) that would not have resulted had such accounting
change not occurred, the parties hereto agree to enter into negotiations in
order to amend such provisions so as to equitably reflect such change such that
the criteria for evaluating compliance with such covenants shall be the same
after such change as if such change had not been made; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that
no change in GAAP that would affect a calculation that measures compliance with
any covenant contained in ARTICLE V (FINANCIAL COVENANTS) or VIII (NEGATIVE
COVENANTS) shall be given effect until such provisions are amended to reflect
such changes in GAAP.
(c) For purposes of making all financial calculations to determine
compliance with ARTICLE V (FINANCIAL COVENANTS), all components of such
calculations (other than Capital Expenditures and taxes for Fixed Charges) shall
be adjusted to include or exclude, as the case may be, without duplication, such
components of such calculations attributable to any business or assets that have
been acquired by the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries (including through any
Acquisition or Permitted Acquisition) or that have been sold pursuant to any
Sale of Business either (i) on or before the Closing Date or (ii) after the
first day of the applicable period of determination and prior to the end of such

time to time on any Business Day during the period from the date hereof until
the Revolving Credit Termination Date in an aggregate principal amount at any
time outstanding for all such loans by such Revolving Credit Lender not to
exceed such Revolving Credit Lender's Revolving Credit Commitment; PROVIDED,
HOWEVER, that at no time shall any Revolving Credit Lender be obligated to make
a Revolving Loan in excess of such Revolving Credit Lender's Ratable Portion of
the Available Credit. Within the limits of the Revolving Credit Commitment of
each Revolving Credit Lender, amounts of Revolving Loans repaid may be
reborrowed under this SECTION 2.1.
(b) TERM LOAN COMMITMENTS
(i) On the terms and subject to the conditions contained in
this Agreement, each Tranche B Lender severally agrees to make a loan in
Dollars to the Borrower on the Closing Date in an amount not to exceed such
Lender's Tranche B Commitment on such date.
(ii) Each Lender (or Affiliate or Approved Fund thereof) or
Eligible Assignee having, in its sole discretion, committed to a Facilities
Increase shall agree as part of such commitment that, on the Facilities
Increase Date for such Facilities Increase of the Tranche B Facility, on
the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in its commitment
therefor or otherwise agreed to as part of such commitment or set forth in

Lender, Affiliate, Approved Fund or Eligible Assignee shall make a loan in
Dollars to the Borrower in an amount not to exceed such commitment to such
Facilities Increase.

PRESTIGE BRANDS, INC.
three years prior to the Tranche B Maturity Date, (C) no Facilities
Increase shall be effective earlier than 10 days after the delivery of the
Facilities Increase Notice to the Administrative Agent in respect of such
Facilities Increase and (D) no more than three Facilities Increases shall
be made pursuant to this CLAUSE (c). Nothing in this Agreement shall be
construed to obligate any Lender to negotiate for (whether or not in good
faith), solicit, provide or consent to any increase in the Commitments, and
any such increase may be subject to changes in any term herein.
(ii) The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender
of the proposed Facilities Increase and of the proposed terms and
conditions therefor agreed between the Borrower and the Administrative
Agent. Each such Lender (and each of their Affiliates and Approved Funds)
may, in its sole discretion, commit to participate in such Facilities
Increase by forwarding its commitment to the Administrative Agent therefor
in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. The
Administrative Agent shall allocate, in its sole discretion but in amounts
not to exceed for each such Lender the commitment received from such
Lender, Affiliate or Approved Fund, the Commitments to be made as part of
the Facilities Increase to the Lenders from which it has received such
written commitments. If the Administrative Agent does not receive enough
commitments from existing Lenders or their Affiliates or Approved Funds, it
may, after consultation with the Borrower, allocate to Eligible Assignees
any excess of the proposed amount of such Facilities Increase agreed with
the Borrower over the aggregate amounts of the commitments received from
existing Lenders.
(iii) Each Facilities Increase shall become effective on a date
agreed by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (each a "FACILITIES
INCREASE DATE"), which shall be in any case on or after the date of

Revolving Credit Lender having Revolving Loans outstanding on such
Facilities Increase Date, without recourse or warranty, an undivided
interest and participation, to the extent of such Revolving Credit Lender's
Ratable Portion of the new Revolving Credit Commitments (after giving
effect to such Facilities Increase), in the aggregate outstanding Revolving
Loans, so as to ensure that, on the Facilities Increase Date after giving
effect to such Facilities Increase, each Revolving Credit Lender is owed
only its Ratable Portion of the Revolving Loans outstanding on such
Facilities Increase Date.
SECTION 2.2 BORROWING PROCEDURES
(a) Each Borrowing shall be made on notice given by the Borrower to

date of the proposed Borrowing, which shall be a Business Day, in the case of a
Borrowing of Base Rate Loans and (ii) three Business Days, in the case of a
Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans, prior to the date of the proposed Borrowing.
Each such notice shall be in substantially the form of EXHIBIT C (FORM
50
<Page>
CREDIT AGREEMENT
PRESTIGE BRANDS, INC.
OF NOTICE OF BORROWING) (a "NOTICE OF BORROWING"), specifying (A) the date of
such proposed Borrowing (which, in the case of a Term Loan Borrowing that is not
made as part of a Facilities Increase, shall be the Closing Date and, in the
case of any Term Loan Borrowing that is made as part of a Facilities Increase,
shall be the Facilities Increase Date for such Facilities Increase), (B) the
aggregate amount of such proposed Borrowing, (C) whether any portion of the
proposed Borrowing will be of Base Rate Loans or Eurodollar Rate Loans and (D)
for each Eurodollar Rate Loan, the initial Interest Period or Periods thereof.
Loans shall be made as Base Rate Loans unless, subject to SECTION 2.14 (SPECIAL
PROVISIONS GOVERNING EURODOLLAR RATE LOANS), the Notice of Borrowing specifies
that all or a portion thereof shall be Eurodollar Rate Loans. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in SECTION 2.3(a) (SWING LOANS), if any
Notice of Borrowing requests a Revolving Credit Borrowing of Base Rate Loans,
the Administrative Agent may make a Swing Loan available to the Borrower in an
aggregate amount not to exceed such proposed Revolving Credit Borrowing, and the
aggregate amount of the corresponding proposed Revolving Credit Borrowing shall
be reduced accordingly by the principal amount of such Swing Loan. Each
Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount of not less than $1,000,000 or an
integral multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof.
(b) The Administrative Agent shall give to each Lender prompt notice
of the Administrative Agent's receipt of a Notice of Borrowing and, if
Eurodollar Rate Loans are properly requested in such Notice of Borrowing, the
applicable interest rate determined pursuant to SECTION 2.14(a) (DETERMINATION
OF INTEREST RATE). Each Lender shall, before 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on the
date of the proposed Borrowing, make available to the Administrative Agent at
its address referred to in SECTION 11.8 (NOTICES, ETC.), in immediately
available funds, such Lender's Ratable Portion of such proposed Borrowing. Upon
fulfillment (or due waiver in accordance with SECTION 11.1 (AMENDMENTS, WAIVERS,
ETC.)) (i) on the Closing Date, of the applicable conditions set forth in
SECTION 3.1 (CONDITIONS PRECEDENT TO INITIAL LOANS AND LETTERS OF CREDIT) and
(ii) at any time (including the Closing Date), of the applicable conditions set
forth in SECTION 3.2 (CONDITIONS PRECEDENT TO EACH LOAN AND LETTER OF CREDIT),
and after the Administrative Agent's receipt of such funds, the Administrative
Agent shall make such funds available to the Borrower.
(c) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a
Lender prior to the date of any proposed Borrowing that such Lender will not
make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender's Ratable Portion of such
Borrowing (or any portion thereof), the Administrative Agent may assume that
such Lender has made such Ratable Portion available to the Administrative Agent
on the date of such Borrowing in accordance with this SECTION 2.2 and the
Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to
the Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If and to the extent that such
Lender shall not have so made such Ratable Portion available to the
Administrative Agent, such Lender and the Borrower severally agree to repay to
the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand (and, in the case of the Borrower,
within three Business Days after receipt of such 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
Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of the Borrower, the interest rate
applicable at the time to the Loans comprising such Borrowing and (ii) in the
case of such Lender, the Federal Funds Rate for the first Business Day and
thereafter at the interest rate applicable at the time to the Loans comprising
such Borrowing. If such Lender shall repay to the Administrative Agent such
corresponding amount, such corresponding amount so repaid shall constitute such
Lender's Loan as part of such Borrowing for purposes of this Agreement. If the
Borrower shall repay to the Administrative
51

CREDIT AGREEMENT
PRESTIGE BRANDS, INC.
Agent such corresponding amount, such payment shall not relieve such Lender of
any obligation it may have hereunder to the Borrower.
(d) The failure of any Lender to make on the date specified any Loan
or any payment required by it (such Lender being a "NON-FUNDING LENDER"),
including any payment in respect of its participation in Swing Loans and Letter
of Credit Obligations, shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligations to
make such Loan or payment on such date but no such other Lender shall be
responsible for the failure of any Non-Funding Lender to make a Loan or payment
required under this Agreement.
SECTION 2.3 SWING LOANS
(a) On the terms and subject to the conditions contained in this
Agreement, the Swing Loan Lender may, in its sole discretion, make, in Dollars,
loans (each a "SWING LOAN") otherwise available to the Borrower under the
Revolving Credit Facility from time to time on any Business Day during the
period from the date hereof until the Revolving Credit Termination Date in an
aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding (together with the aggregate
outstanding principal amount of any other Loan made by the Swing Loan Lender
hereunder in its capacity as a Lender or the Swing Loan Lender) not to exceed
the Swing Loan Sublimit; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that at no time shall the Swing Loan
Lender make any Swing Loan in excess of the Available Credit. Each Swing Loan
shall be a Base Rate Loan and must be paid in full upon any Revolving Credit
Borrowing hereunder and shall in any event mature no later than the Revolving
Credit Termination Date. Within the limits set forth in the first sentence of
this CLAUSE (a), amounts of Swing Loans repaid may be reborrowed under this
CLAUSE (a).
(b) In order to request a Swing Loan, the Borrower shall telecopy (or
forward by electronic mail or similar means) to the Administrative Agent a duly
completed request in substantially the form of EXHIBIT D (FORM OF SWING LOAN
REQUEST), setting forth the requested amount and date of such Swing Loan (a
"SWING LOAN REQUEST"), to be received by the Administrative Agent not later than
1:00 p.m. (New York time) on the day of the proposed borrowing. The
Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Swing Loan Lender of the details
of the requested Swing Loan. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, the Swing
Loan Lender may make a Swing Loan available to the Administrative Agent and, in
turn, the Administrative Agent shall make such amounts available to the Borrower
on the date of the relevant Swing Loan Request. The Swing Loan Lender shall not
make any Swing Loan in the period commencing on the first Business Day after it
receives written notice from the Administrative Agent or any Revolving Credit
Lender that one or more of the conditions precedent contained in SECTION 3.2
(CONDITIONS PRECEDENT TO EACH LOAN AND LETTER OF CREDIT) shall not on such date
be satisfied, and ending when such conditions are satisfied. The Swing Loan
Lender shall not otherwise be required to determine that, or take notice
whether, the conditions precedent set forth in SECTION 3.2 (CONDITIONS PRECEDENT
TO EACH LOAN AND LETTER OF CREDIT) have been satisfied in connection with the
making of any Swing Loan.
(c) The Swing Loan Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent in
writing (which writing may be a telecopy or electronic mail) weekly, by no later
than 10:00 a.m. (New York time) on the first Business Day of each week, of the
aggregate principal amount of its Swing Loans then outstanding.
(d) The Swing Loan Lender may demand at any time that each Revolving
Credit Lender pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Swing Loan
Lender, in the
52

manner provided in CLAUSE (e) below, such Revolving Credit Lender's Ratable
Portion of all or a portion of the outstanding Swing Loans, which demand shall
be made through the Administrative Agent, shall be in writing and shall specify
the outstanding principal amount of Swing Loans demanded to be paid.
(e) The Administrative Agent shall forward each notice referred to in
CLAUSE (c) above and each demand referred to in CLAUSE (d) above to each
Revolving Credit Lender on the day such notice or such demand is received by the
Administrative Agent (except that any such notice or demand received by the
Administrative Agent after 2:00 p.m. (New York time) on any Business Day or any
such demand received on a day that is not a Business Day shall not be required
to be forwarded to the Revolving Credit Lenders by the Administrative Agent
until the next succeeding Business Day), together with a statement prepared by
the Administrative Agent specifying the amount of each Revolving Credit Lender's
Ratable Portion of the aggregate principal amount of the Swing Loans stated to
be outstanding in such notice or demanded to be paid pursuant to such demand,
and, notwithstanding whether or not the conditions precedent set forth in
SECTIONS 3.2 (CONDITIONS PRECEDENT TO EACH LOAN AND LETTER OF CREDIT) and 2.1(a)
(THE COMMITMENTS) shall have been satisfied (which conditions precedent the
Revolving Credit Lenders hereby irrevocably waive), each Revolving Credit Lender
shall, before 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on the Business Day next succeeding the
date of such Revolving Credit Lender's receipt of such notice or demand, make
available to the Administrative Agent, in immediately available funds, for the
account of the Swing Loan Lender, the amount specified in such statement. Upon
such payment by a Revolving Credit Lender, such Revolving Credit Lender shall,
except as provided in CLAUSE (f) below, be deemed to have made a Revolving Loan
to the Borrower. The Administrative Agent shall use such funds to repay the
Swing Loans to the Swing Loan Lender. To the extent that any Revolving Credit
Lender fails to make such payment available to the Administrative Agent for the
account of the Swing Loan Lender, the Borrower shall repay such Swing Loan on
demand.
(f) Upon the occurrence of a Default under CLAUSE (ii) or (iii) of
SECTION 9.1(f) (EVENTS OF DEFAULT), each Revolving Credit Lender shall acquire,
without recourse or warranty, an undivided participation in each Swing Loan
otherwise required to be repaid by such Revolving Credit Lender pursuant to
CLAUSE (e) above, which participation shall be in a principal amount equal to
such Revolving Credit Lender's Ratable Portion of such Swing Loan, by paying to
the Swing Loan Lender on the date on which such Revolving Credit Lender would
otherwise have been required to make a payment in respect of such Swing Loan
pursuant to CLAUSE (e) above, in immediately available funds, an amount equal to
such Revolving Credit Lender's Ratable Portion of such Swing Loan. If all or
part of such amount is not in fact made available by such Revolving Credit
Lender to the Swing Loan Lender on such date, the Swing Loan Lender shall be
entitled to recover any such unpaid amount on demand from such Revolving Credit
Lender together with interest accrued from such date at the Federal Funds Rate
for the first Business Day after such payment was due and thereafter at the rate
of interest then applicable to Base Rate Loans.
(g) From and after the date on which any Revolving Credit Lender (i)
is deemed to have made a Revolving Loan pursuant to CLAUSE (e) above with
respect to any Swing Loan or (ii) purchases an undivided participation interest
in a Swing Loan pursuant to CLAUSE (f) above, the Swing Loan Lender shall
promptly distribute to such Revolving Credit Lender such Revolving Credit
Lender's Ratable Portion of all payments of principal of and interest received

Person. In the event that any Issuer makes any payment under any Letter of
Credit and the Borrower shall not have repaid such amount to such Issuer
pursuant to this CLAUSE (h) or any such payment by the Borrower is rescinded or
set aside for any reason, such Reimbursement Obligation shall be payable on
demand with interest thereon computed (i) from the date on which such
Reimbursement Obligation arose to the Reimbursement Date, at the rate of
interest applicable during such period to Revolving Loans that are Base Rate
Loans and (ii) from the Reimbursement Date until the date of payment in full, at
the rate of interest applicable during such period to past due Revolving Loans
that are Base Rate Loans, and such Issuer shall promptly notify the
Administrative Agent, which shall promptly notify each Revolving Credit Lender
of such failure, and each Revolving Credit Lender shall promptly and
unconditionally pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuer
the amount of such Revolving Credit Lender's Ratable Portion of such payment in
immediately available Dollars. If the Administrative Agent so notifies such
Revolving Credit Lender prior to 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on any Business Day,
such Revolving Credit Lender shall make available to the Administrative Agent
for the account of such Issuer its Ratable Portion of the amount of such payment
on such Business Day in immediately available funds. Upon such payment by a
Revolving Credit Lender, such Revolving Credit Lender shall, except during the
continuance of a Default or Event of Default under SECTION 9.1(f) (EVENTS OF
DEFAULT)

and notwithstanding whether or not the conditions precedent set forth in SECTION
3.2 (CONDITIONS PRECEDENT TO EACH LOAN AND LETTER OF CREDIT) shall have been
satisfied (which conditions precedent the Revolving Credit Lenders hereby
irrevocably waive), be deemed to have made a Revolving Loan to the Borrower in
the principal amount of such payment. Whenever any Issuer receives from the
Borrower a payment of a Reimbursement Obligation as to which the Administrative
Agent has received for the account of such Issuer any payment from a Revolving
Credit Lender pursuant to this CLAUSE (h), such Issuer shall pay over to the
Administrative Agent any amount received in excess of such Reimbursement
Obligation and, upon receipt of such amount, the Administrative Agent shall
promptly pay over to each Revolving Credit Lender, in immediately available
funds, an amount equal to such Revolving Credit Lender's Ratable Portion of the
amount of such payment adjusted, if necessary, to reflect the respective amounts
the Revolving Credit Lenders have paid in respect of such Reimbursement
Obligation.
(i) If and to the extent such Revolving Credit Lender shall not have
so made its Ratable Portion of the amount of the payment required by CLAUSE (h)
above available to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuer, such
Revolving Credit Lender agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the
account of such Issuer forthwith on demand any such unpaid amount together with
interest thereon, for the first Business Day after payment was first due at the
Federal Funds Rate and, thereafter, until such amount is repaid to the
Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuer, at a rate per annum equal
to the rate applicable to Base Rate Loans under the Revolving Credit Facility.
(j) The Borrower's obligation to pay each Reimbursement Obligation
and the obligations of the Revolving Credit Lenders to make payments to the
Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuers with respect to Letters of
Credit shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable and shall be performed
strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, under any and all
circumstances whatsoever, including the occurrence of any Default or Event of
Default, and irrespective of any of the following:
(i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of
Credit or any Loan Document, or any term or provision therein;
(ii) any amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure
from all or any of the provisions of any Letter of Credit or any Loan
Document;
(iii) the existence of any claim, set off, defense or other
right that the Borrower, any other party guaranteeing, or otherwise
obligated with, the Borrower, any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof or
any other Person may at any time have against the beneficiary under any
Letter of Credit, any Issuer, the Administrative Agent or any Lender or any
other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, any other Loan
Document or any other related or unrelated agreement or transaction;
(iv) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of
Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any
respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect;
(v) payment by the Issuer under a Letter of Credit against
presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply with the
terms of such Letter of Credit; and
57

CREDIT AGREEMENT
PRESTIGE BRANDS, INC.
(vi) any other act or omission to act or delay of any kind of
the Issuer, the Lenders, the Administrative Agent or any other Person or
any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any
of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this SECTION 2.4,
constitute a legal or equitable discharge of the Borrower's obligations
hereunder.
Any action taken or omitted to be taken by the relevant Issuer under or in
connection with any Letter of Credit, if taken or omitted in the absence of
gross negligence or willful misconduct, shall not result in any liability of
such Issuer to the Borrower or any Lender. In determining whether drafts and
other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms
thereof, the Issuer may accept documents that appear on their face to be in
order, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any
notice or information to the contrary and, in making any payment under any
Letter of Credit, the Issuer may rely exclusively on the documents presented to
it under such Letter of Credit as to any and all matters set forth therein,
including reliance on the amount of any draft presented under such Letter of
Credit, whether or not the amount due to the beneficiary thereunder equals the
amount of such draft and whether or not any document presented pursuant to such
Letter of Credit proves to be insufficient in any respect, if such document on
its face appears to be in order, and whether or not any other statement or any
other document presented pursuant to such Letter of Credit proves to be forged
or invalid or any statement therein proves to be inaccurate or untrue in any
respect whatsoever, and any noncompliance in any immaterial respect of the
documents presented under such Letter of Credit with the terms thereof shall, in
each case, be deemed not to constitute willful misconduct or gross negligence of
the Issuer.
(k) SCHEDULE 2.4 (EXISTING LETTERS OF CREDIT) contains a schedule of
certain letters of credit issued prior to the Closing Date by Merrill Lynch Bank
USA for the account of the Borrower, and the Borrower hereby assumes and
undertakes to repay all reimbursement and other obligations owing by the
Ultimate Parent to Merrill Lynch Bank USA in respect of such letters of credit.
On the Closing Date (i) such letters of credit, to the extent outstanding, shall
be automatically and without further action by the parties thereto converted to
Letters of Credit issued pursuant to this SECTION 2.4 for the account of the
Borrower and subject to the provisions hereof, and for this purpose the fees
specified in SECTION 2.12(b) (FEES) shall be payable (in substitution for any
fees set forth in the applicable letter of credit reimbursement agreements or
applications relating to such letters of credit) as if such letters of credit
had been issued on the Closing Date, (ii) the issuers of such Letters of Credit
shall be deemed to be "ISSUERS" hereunder solely for the purpose of maintaining
such letters of credit, for purposes of SECTION 2.16(f) relating to the
obligation to provide the appropriate forms, certificates and statements to the
Borrower and the Administrative Agent and updated as required by SECTION 2.16(f)
and for purposes of SECTION 2.7(b), relating to the entries to be made in the
Register, (iii) the Dollar Equivalent of the face amount of such letters of
credit shall be included in the calculation of Letter of Credit Obligations and
(iv) all liabilities of the Borrower with respect to such letters of credit
shall constitute Obligations. No letter of credit converted in accordance with
this CLAUSE (k) shall be amended, extended or renewed without the prior written
consent of the Administrative Agent.
SECTION 2.5 TERMINATION OF THE COMMITMENTS

excess thereof and need not be ratable among the Facilities.
(b) The then current Revolving Credit Commitments shall be reduced on
each date on which a prepayment of Revolving Loans or Swing Loans is made (or
would be required to be made had the outstanding Revolving Loans and Swing Loans
equaled the Revolving Credit Commitments then in effect) pursuant to SECTION
2.9(a) (MANDATORY PREPAYMENTS) from the proceeds of any Asset Sale or Property
Loss Event, in each case in the amount of such prepayment (or of the prepayment
that would have been required) (and the Revolving Credit Commitment of each
Revolving Credit Lender shall be reduced by its Ratable Portion of such amount).
(c) Any unused Term Loan Commitment shall terminate on the Term Loan
Commitment Termination Date for such Term Loan Commitment. In addition, any
Revolving Credit Commitment entered into as part of a Facilities Increase shall
terminate on the earlier of (i) the Facilities Increase Date for such Revolving
Credit Commitment, (ii) any termination date expressly set forth in the
commitment letter for such commitment and (iii) the date agreed by the Borrower
and the Administrative Agent to be the date of termination of the commitments in
such Facilities Increase.

PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Borrower shall repay the entire unpaid principal

resulting from each Loan of such Lender from time to time, including the amounts
of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time
under this Agreement.
(b) (i) The Administrative Agent, acting as agent of the Borrower
solely for this purpose and for tax purposes, shall establish and maintain at
its address referred to in SECTION 11.8 (NOTICES, ETC.) a record of ownership
(the "REGISTER") in which the Administrative Agent agrees to register by book
entry the Administrative Agent's, each Lender's and each Issuer's interest in
each Loan, each Letter of Credit and each Reimbursement Obligation, and in the
right
59

CREDIT AGREEMENT
PRESTIGE BRANDS, INC.
to receive any payments hereunder and any assignment of any such interest or
rights. In addition, the Administrative Agent, acting as agent of the Borrower
solely for this purpose and for tax purposes, shall establish and maintain
accounts in the Register in accordance with its usual practice in which it shall
record (i) the names and addresses of the Lenders and the Issuers, (ii) the
Commitments of each Lender from time to time, (iii) the amount of each Loan made

the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder or under
any Loan Document from any Loan Party, whether such sum constitutes principal or
interest (and the type of Loan to which it applies), fees, expenses or other
amounts due under the Loan Documents and each Lender's and Issuer's, as the case
may be, share thereof, if applicable.
(ii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
Agreement, the Loans (including the Notes evidencing such Loans) and the
Reimbursement Obligations are registered obligations and the right, title, and
interest of the Lenders and the Issuers and their assignees in and to such Loans
or Reimbursement Obligations, as the case may be, shall be transferable only
upon notation of such transfer in the Register. A Note shall only evidence the
Lender's or a registered assignee's right, title and interest in and to the
related Loan, and in no event is any such Note to be considered a bearer
instrument or obligation. This SECTION 2.7(b) and SECTION 11.2 shall be
construed so that the Loans and Reimbursement Obligations are at all times
maintained in "REGISTERED FORM" within the meaning of Sections 163(f), 871(h)(2)

provisions of the Code or such regulations).
(c) The entries made in the Register and in the accounts therein
maintained pursuant to CLAUSES (a) and (b) above shall, to the extent permitted
by applicable law, be PRIMA FACIE evidence of the existence and amounts of the
obligations recorded therein; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the failure of any Lender
or the Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall
not in any manner affect the obligations of the Borrower to repay the Loans in
accordance with their terms. In addition, the Loan Parties, the Administrative
Agent, the Lenders and the Issuers shall treat each Person whose name is
recorded in the Register as a Lender or as an Issuer, as applicable, for all
purposes of this Agreement. Information contained in the Register with respect
to any Lender or Issuer shall be available for inspection by the Borrower, the
Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuer at any reasonable time and from
time to time upon reasonable prior notice.
(d) Notwithstanding any other provision of the Agreement, in the
event that any Lender requests that the Borrower execute and deliver a
promissory note or notes payable to such Lender in order to evidence the
Indebtedness owing to such Lender by the Borrower hereunder, the Borrower shall
promptly execute and deliver a Note or Notes to such Lender evidencing any
Revolving Loans and Term Loans of any Tranche, as the case may be, of such
Lender, substantially in the forms of EXHIBIT B-1 (FORM OF REVOLVING CREDIT
NOTE) and EXHIBIT B-2 (FORM OF TERM NOTE), respectively.
(e) In each case where a Revolving Credit Lender purchases an
undivided participation interest in a Swing Loan pursuant to SECTION 2.3(f)
(SWING LOANS), the Swing Loan Lender shall (i) keep a register meeting the
requirements of Treasury Regulation section 5f.103-

to reduce the Revolving Credit Commitments.
In addition, the Borrower shall make any payment required pursuant to CLAUSE (d)
above as a result of any such reduction in the Revolving Credit Commitments. All
prepayments of the Term Loans of any Tranche made pursuant to this CLAUSE (e)

Interest Period, (B) upon the payment or prepayment thereof in full or in part
and (C) if not previously paid in full, at maturity (whether by acceleration or
otherwise) of such Eurodollar Rate Loan and (iv) interest accrued on the amount

occurrence of a Material Event of Default and for as long thereafter as such
Material Event of Default shall be continuing and (ii) upon the occurrence of

shall be continuing, effective immediately upon the earlier of the receipt (A)
by the Borrower of a notice by the Administrative Agent or (B) by the

other Obligations then due and payable shall bear interest at a rate that is two
percent per annum in excess of the rate of interest applicable to such Loans or
other Obligations from time to time. Such interest shall be payable on the date
that would otherwise be applicable to such interest pursuant to CLAUSE SECTION

SECTION 2.11 CONVERSION/CONTINUATION OPTION
(a) The Borrower may elect (i) at any time on any Business Day to

Eurodollar Rate Loans and (ii) at the end of any applicable Interest Period, to
convert Eurodollar Rate Loans or any portion thereof into Base Rate Loans or to
continue such Eurodollar Rate Loans or any portion thereof for an additional
Interest Period; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the aggregate amount of the Eurodollar
Loans for each Interest Period must be an integral multiple of $1,000,000. Each
conversion or continuation shall be allocated among the Loans of each Lender in
accordance with such Lender's Ratable Portion. Each such election shall be in
substantially the form of EXHIBIT F (FORM OF NOTICE OF CONVERSION OR
CONTINUATION) (a "NOTICE OF CONVERSION OR CONTINUATION") and shall be made by
giving the Administrative Agent at least three Business Days' prior written
notice specifying (A) the amount and type of Loan being converted or continued,
(B) in the case of a conversion to or a continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans,
the applicable Interest Period and (C) in the case of a conversion, the date of

instructions from the Requisite Lenders to that effect, (B) the continuation of,
or conversion into, a Eurodollar Rate Loan would violate any provision of
SECTION 2.14 (SPECIAL PROVISIONS GOVERNING EURODOLLAR RATE LOANS) or (C) any
Material Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and (iii) no
conversion in whole or in part of Base Rate Loans to Eurodollar Rate Loans
having an Interest Period greater than one month and no continuation in whole or
in part of Eurodollar Rate Loans into Eurodollar Rate Loans upon the expiration
of any applicable Interest Period into Eurodollar Rate Loans having an Interest
Period greater than one month shall be permitted at any time at which an Event
of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. If, within the time period
required under the terms of this SECTION 2.11, the Administrative Agent does not
receive a Notice of Conversion or Continuation from the Borrower containing a
permitted election to continue any Eurodollar Rate Loans for an additional
Interest Period or to convert any such Loans, then, upon the expiration of the
applicable Interest Period, such Loans shall be automatically converted to Base
Rate Loans. Each Notice of Conversion or Continuation shall be irrevocable.
SECTION 2.12 FEES
(a) UNUSED COMMITMENT FEE. The Borrower agrees to pay in immediately

aggregate outstanding principal amount of Revolving Loans and (2) the
outstanding amount of the aggregate Letter of Credit Obligations from the
date hereof through the Revolving Credit Termination Date at the Applicable

(c) ADDITIONAL FEES. The Borrower has agreed to pay to the
Administrative Agent, the Syndication Agent and the Arrangers additional fees,
the amount and dates of payment of which are embodied in the Fee Letters.
SECTION 2.13 PAYMENTS AND COMPUTATIONS
(a) Each payment made by or on behalf of the Borrower (including fees
and expenses) shall be made not later than 1:00 p.m. (New York time) on the day
when due, in the currency specified herein (or, if no such currency is
specified, in Dollars) to the Administrative Agent at its address referred to in
SECTION 11.8 (NOTICES, ETC.) in immediately available funds without set-off or
counterclaim. The Administrative Agent shall promptly thereafter cause to be
distributed immediately available funds relating to the payment of principal,
interest or fees to the Lenders, in accordance with the application of payments
set forth in CLAUSE (f) or (g) below, as applicable, for the account of their
respective Applicable Lending Offices; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that amounts payable
pursuant to SECTION 2.15 (CAPITAL ADEQUACY), SECTION 2.16 (TAXES) or SECTION
2.14(c) or (d) (SPECIAL PROVISIONS GOVERNING EURODOLLAR RATE LOANS) shall be
paid only to the affected Lender or Lenders and amounts payable with respect to
Swing Loans shall be paid only to the Swing Loan Lender. Payments received by
the Administrative Agent after 1:00 p.m. (New York time) shall be deemed to be
received on the next Business Day.
(b) All computations of interest of Base Rate Loans (except where the
Base Rate is calculated using CLAUSE (b) of the definition thereof) shall be
made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 365 or, as applicable
366 days for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding
the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest and fees are
payable. All other computations of interest and of fees shall be made by the
Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 360 days, in each case for the
actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day)
occurring in the period for which such interest and fees are payable. Each
determination by the Administrative Agent of a rate of interest hereunder shall
be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.
(c) Each payment by or on behalf of the Borrower of any Loan,
Reimbursement Obligation (including interest or fees in respect thereof) and
each reimbursement of various costs, expenses or other Obligation shall be made
in the currency in which such Loan was made, such Letter of Credit issued or
such cost, expense or other Obligation was incurred; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that,
other than for payments in respect of a Loan or Reimbursement Obligation, Loan
Documents duly executed by the Administrative Agent may specify other currencies
of payment for Obligations created by or directly related to such Loan Document.
(d) Whenever any payment hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day
other than a Business Day, the due date for such payment shall be extended to
the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case
be included in the computation of payment of interest or fees, as the case may
be; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that if such extension would cause payment of interest on
or principal of any Eurodollar Rate Loan to be made in the next calendar month,
such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day. All
repayments of any Revolving Loans or any Tranche of Term Loans shall be applied
as follows: FIRST, to repay such Loans outstanding as Base Rate Loans and THEN,
to repay such Loans outstanding as Eurodollar Rate Loans, with those Eurodollar
Rate Loans having earlier expiring Eurodollar Interest Periods being repaid
prior to those having later expiring Eurodollar Interest Periods.

PRESTIGE BRANDS, INC.
(e) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from
the Borrower to the Lenders prior to the date on which any payment is due
hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment in full (and the
Administrative Agent has not received any notice that such payment shall be made
in full by another Loan Party on behalf of the Borrower), the Administrative
Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment in full to the
Administrative Agent on such date and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance
upon such assumption, cause to be distributed to each Lender on such due date an
amount equal to the amount then due such Lender. If and to the extent that the
Borrower shall not have made (and no Loan Party shall have made on behalf of the
Borrower) such payment in full to the Administrative Agent, each Lender shall
repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such amount distributed to
such Lender together with interest thereon (at the Federal Funds Rate for the
first Business Day and thereafter, at the rate applicable to Base Rate Loans for
the applicable Facility) for each day from the date such amount is distributed
to such Lender until the date such Lender repays such amount to the
Administrative Agent.
(f) Except for payments and other amounts received by the
Administrative Agent and applied in accordance with the provisions of CLAUSE (g)
below (or required to be applied in accordance with CLAUSES (c) or (e) of
SECTION 2.9 (MANDATORY PREPAYMENTS)), all payments and any other amounts
received by the Administrative Agent from or for the benefit of the Borrower
shall be applied as follows: FIRST, to pay principal of, and interest on, any
portion of the Loans the Administrative Agent may have advanced pursuant to the
express provisions of this Agreement on behalf of any Lender, for which the
Administrative Agent has not then been reimbursed by such Lender or the Borrower
(or any Loan Party on behalf of the Borrower), SECOND, to pay all other
Obligations then due and payable; and THIRD, as the Borrower so designates.
Payments in respect of Swing Loans received by the Administrative Agent shall be
distributed to the Swing Loan Lender; payments in respect of Revolving Loans
received by the Administrative Agent shall be distributed to each Revolving
Credit Lender in accordance with such Lender's Ratable Portion of the Revolving
Credit Commitments; payments in respect of any Tranche of Term Loans received by
the Administrative Agent shall be distributed to each Term Loan Lender in such
Tranche in accordance with such Lender's Ratable Portion of such Tranche; and
all payments of fees and all other payments in respect of any other Obligation
shall be allocated among such of the Lenders and Issuers as are entitled thereto
and, for such payments allocated to the Lenders, in proportion to their
respective Ratable Portions in the Facility with respect to which such payment
is made.
(g) The Borrower hereby irrevocably waives the right to direct the
application of any and all payments in respect of the Obligations and any
proceeds of Collateral after the occurrence and during the continuance of an
Event of Default and agrees that, notwithstanding the provisions of CLAUSES (c)
or (e) of SECTION 2.9 (MANDATORY PREPAYMENTS) and CLAUSE (f) above, the
Administrative Agent may, and, upon either (A) the written direction of the
Requisite Lenders or (B) the acceleration of the Obligations pursuant to SECTION
9.2 (REMEDIES), shall, deliver a Blockage Notice to each Deposit Account Bank
for each Approved Deposit Account and apply all payments in respect of any
Obligations and all funds on deposit in any Cash Collateral Account and all
other proceeds of Collateral in the order set forth in the Intercreditor
Agreement.
(h) The Adminstrative Agent hereby agrees to deliver to each other
Agent, promptly upon receipt thereof by the Administrative Agent, each Permitted
Acquisition Notice delivered by the Parent to the Administrative Agent and all
other notices and information

furnished to the Administrative Agent in connection with any Permitted
Acquisition pursuant to the definition of "Permitted Acquisition".
SECTION 2.14 SPECIAL PROVISIONS GOVERNING EURODOLLAR RATE LOANS
(a) DETERMINATION OF INTEREST RATE
The Eurodollar Rate for each Interest Period for Eurodollar Rate Loans
shall be determined by the Administrative Agent pursuant to the procedures set
forth in the definition of "EURODOLLAR RATE." The Administrative Agent's
determination shall be presumed to be correct absent manifest error and shall be
binding on the Borrower.
(b) INTEREST RATE UNASCERTAINABLE, INADEQUATE OR UNFAIR
In the event that (i) the Administrative Agent determines that
adequate and fair means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable interest
rates by reference to which the Eurodollar Rate then being determined is to be
fixed or (ii) the Requisite Lenders notify the Administrative Agent that the
Eurodollar Rate for any Interest Period will not adequately reflect the cost to
the Lenders of making or maintaining such Loans for such Interest Period, the
Administrative Agent shall forthwith so notify the Borrower and the Lenders,
whereupon each Eurodollar Loan shall automatically, on the last day of the
current Interest Period for such Loan, convert into a Base Rate Loan and the
obligations of the Lenders to make Eurodollar Rate Loans or to convert Base Rate
Loans into Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended until the Administrative
Agent shall notify the Borrower that the Requisite Lenders have determined that
the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist.
(c) INCREASED COSTS
If at any time any Lender determines that the introduction of, or any
change in or in the interpretation of, any law, treaty or governmental rule,
regulation or order (other than any change by way of imposition or increase of
reserve requirements included in determining the Eurodollar Rate) or the
compliance by such Lender with any guideline, request or directive from any
central bank or other Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of
law) (collectively, a "CHANGE OF LAW"), shall have the effect of increasing the
cost to such Lender of agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining any
Eurodollar Rate Loans, then the Borrower shall from time to time, upon demand by
such Lender (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), pay to the
Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender additional amounts
sufficient to compensate such Lender for such increased cost. A certificate as
to the amount of such increased cost, submitted to the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent by such Lender, shall be conclusive and binding for all
purposes, absent manifest error; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Borrower shall not be required to compensate any Lender for any
increased cost incurred more than 180 days prior to the delivery of such
certificate (such period to be extended in the case of increased costs caused by
a Change of Law with retroactive effect to include the period of retroactive
effect of such Change of Law).
(d) ILLEGALITY
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any Lender
determines that the introduction of, or any change in or in the interpretation
of, any law, treaty or governmental rule, regulation or order after the date of
this Agreement shall make it unlawful, or
70
<Page>
CREDIT AGREEMENT
PRESTIGE BRANDS, INC.
any central bank or other Governmental Authority shall assert that it is
unlawful, for any Lender or its Eurodollar Lending Office to make Eurodollar
Rate Loans or to continue to fund or maintain Eurodollar Rate Loans, then, on
notice thereof and demand therefor by such Lender to the Borrower through the
Administrative Agent, (i) the obligation of such Lender to make or to continue
Eurodollar Rate Loans and to convert Base Rate Loans into Eurodollar Rate Loans
shall be suspended, and each such Lender shall make a Base Rate Loan as part of
any requested Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans and (ii) if the affected
Eurodollar Rate Loans are then outstanding, the Borrower shall immediately
convert each such Loan into a Base Rate Loan. If, at any time after a Lender
gives notice under this CLAUSE (d), such Lender determines that it may lawfully
make Eurodollar Rate Loans, such Lender shall promptly give notice of that
determination to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, and the
Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit the notice to each other Lender.
The Borrower's right to request, and such Lender's obligation, if any, to make
Eurodollar Rate Loans shall thereupon be restored.
(e) BREAKAGE COSTS
In addition to all amounts required to be paid by or on behalf of the
Borrower pursuant to SECTION 2.10 (INTEREST), the Borrower shall compensate each
Lender, upon demand, for all losses, expenses and liabilities (including any
loss or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of
deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender to fund or maintain such
Lender's Eurodollar Rate Loans to the Borrower but excluding any loss of the
Applicable Margin on the relevant Loans) that such Lender may sustain (i) if for
any reason (other than solely by reason of such Lender being a Non-Funding
Lender) a proposed Borrowing, conversion into or continuation of Eurodollar Rate
Loans does not occur on a date specified therefor in a Notice of Borrowing or a
Notice of Conversion or Continuation given by the Borrower or in a telephonic
request by it for borrowing or conversion or continuation or a successive
Interest Period does not commence after notice therefor is given pursuant to
SECTION 2.11 (CONVERSION/CONTINUATION OPTION), (ii) if for any reason any
Eurodollar Rate Loan is prepaid (including mandatorily pursuant to SECTION 2.9
(MANDATORY PREPAYMENTS)) on a date that is not the last day of the applicable
Interest Period, (iii) as a consequence of a required conversion of a Eurodollar
Rate Loan to a Base Rate Loan as a result of any of the events indicated in
CLAUSE (d) above or (iv) as a consequence of any failure by the Borrower to
repay Eurodollar Rate Loans when required by the terms hereof. The Lender making
demand for such compensation shall deliver to the Borrower concurrently with
such demand a written statement as to such losses, expenses and liabilities, and
this statement shall be conclusive as to the amount of compensation due to such
Lender, absent manifest error.
SECTION 2.15 CAPITAL ADEQUACY
If at any time any Lender determines that (a) the adoption of, or any
change in or in the interpretation of, any law, treaty or governmental rule,
regulation or order after the date of this Agreement regarding capital adequacy,
(b) compliance with any such law, treaty, rule, regulation or order or (c)
compliance with any guideline or request or directive from any central bank or
other Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law) shall have
the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender's (or any corporation
controlling such Lender's) capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder
or under or in respect of any Letter of Credit to a level below that which such
Lender or such corporation could have achieved but for such adoption, change,
compliance or interpretation, then, upon demand from time to time by such Lender
(with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), the Borrower shall pay
to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender, from time to time as
specified by
71
<Page>
CREDIT AGREEMENT
PRESTIGE BRANDS, INC.
such Lender, additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender for such
reduction. A certificate as to such amounts submitted to the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent by such Lender shall be conclusive and binding for all
purposes absent manifest error; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Borrower shall not be required to compensate any Lender for any
such amount incurred more than 180 days prior to the delivery of such
certificate (such period to be extended in the case of a reduction caused by any
event described in CLAUSE (a), (b) or (c) above and having retroactive effect to
include the period of such retroactive effect).
SECTION 2.16 TAXES
(a) Except as otherwise provided in this SECTION 2.16, any and all
payments by any Loan Party under each Loan Document shall be made free and clear
of and without deduction for any and all present or future taxes, levies,
imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect
thereto, excluding (i) in the case of each Lender, each Issuer and each Agent
(A) taxes measured by its net income, and franchise taxes imposed on it, and
similar taxes imposed by the jurisdiction (or any political subdivision thereof)
under the laws of which such Lender, Issuer or Agent (as the case may be) is
organized and (B) any United States withholding taxes payable with respect to
payments under the Loan Documents under laws (including any statute, treaty or
regulation) in effect on the Closing Date (or, in the case of (x) an Eligible
Assignee, the date of the Assignment and Acceptance, (y) a successor Agent, the
date of the appointment of such Agent, and (z) a successor Issuer, the date such
Issuer becomes an Issuer) applicable to such Lender, Issuer or Agent, as the
case may be, but not excluding any United States withholding taxes payable as a
result of any change in such laws occurring after the Closing Date (or the date
of such Assignment and Acceptance or the date of such appointment of such Agent
or the date such Issuer becomes an Issuer) and (ii) in the case of each Lender
or each Issuer, taxes measured by its net income, and franchise taxes imposed on
it as a result of a present or former connection between such Lender or such
Issuer (as the case may be) and the jurisdiction of the Governmental Authority
imposing such tax or any taxing authority thereof or therein (all such
non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings and
liabilities being hereinafter referred to as "TAXES"). If any Taxes shall be
required by law to be deducted from or in respect of any sum payable under any
Loan Document to any Lender, Issuer or Agent (w) the sum payable shall be
increased as may be necessary so that, after making all required deductions
(including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this SECTION
2.16, such Lender, Issuer or Agent (as the case may be) receives an amount equal
to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (x) the
relevant Loan Party shall make such deductions, (y) the relevant Loan Party
shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxing authority or other
authority in accordance with applicable law and (z) the relevant Loan Party
shall deliver to the Administrative Agent evidence of such payment.
(b) In addition, each Loan Party agrees to pay any present or future
stamp or documentary taxes or any other excise or property taxes, charges or
similar levies of the United States or any political subdivision thereof or any
applicable foreign jurisdiction, and all liabilities with respect thereto, in
each case arising from any payment made under any Loan Document or from the
execution, delivery or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, any Loan
Document (collectively, "OTHER TAXES").
(c) Each Loan Party shall, jointly and severally, indemnify each
Lender, Issuer and Agent for the full amount of Taxes and Other Taxes (including
any Taxes and Other Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under
this SECTION 2.16) paid by such Lender, Issuer or Agent (as the case may be) and
any liability (including for penalties, interest
72

CREDIT AGREEMENT

and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such
Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally asserted. This indemnification
shall be made within 30 days from the date such Lender, Issuer or Agent (as the
case may be) makes written demand therefor.
(d) Within 30 days after the date of any payment of Taxes or Other
Taxes by any Loan Party, the Borrower shall furnish to the Administrative Agent,
at its address referred to in SECTION 11.8 (NOTICES, ETC.), the original or a
certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof.
(e) Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of any
Loan Party hereunder or under the Guaranty, the agreements and obligations of
such Loan Party contained in this SECTION 2.16 shall survive the payment in full
of the Obligations.
(f) (i) Each Non-U.S. Lender that is entitled at such time to an
exemption from United States withholding tax, or that is subject to such tax at
a reduced rate under an applicable tax treaty, shall (v) on or prior to the
Closing Date if such Non-U.S. Lender is a signatory hereto, (w) otherwise, on or
prior to the date on which such Non-U.S. Lender becomes a Lender, Issuer or
Agent hereunder, (x) on or prior to the date on which any such form or
certification expires or becomes obsolete, (y) after the occurrence of any event
requiring a change in the most recent form or certification previously delivered
by it to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, and (z) from time to time if
requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, provide the
Administrative Agent and the Borrower with two completed originals of each of
the following, as applicable:
(A) Form W-8ECI (claiming exemption from U.S.
withholding tax because the income is effectively connected with a
U.S. trade or business) or any successor form;
(B) Form W-8BEN (claiming exemption from, or a
reduction of, U.S. withholding tax under an income tax treaty) or any
successor form;
(C) in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender claiming exemption
under Sections 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code, a Form W-8BEN (claiming
exemption from U.S. withholding tax under the portfolio interest
exemption) or any successor form; or
(D) any other applicable form, certificate or document
prescribed by the IRS certifying as to such Non-U.S. Lender's
entitlement to such exemption from United States withholding tax or
reduced rate with respect to all payments to be made to such Non-U.S.
Lender under the Loan Documents.
Unless the Borrower and the Administrative Agent have received forms or other
documents satisfactory to them indicating that payments under any Loan Document
to or for a Non-U.S. Lender are not subject to United States withholding tax or
are subject to such tax at a rate reduced by an applicable tax treaty, the Loan
Parties and the Administrative Agent shall withhold amounts required to be
withheld by applicable Requirements of Law from such payments at the applicable
statutory rate.

(ii) Each U.S. Lender shall (v) on or prior to the Closing Date
if such U.S. Lender is a signatory hereto, (w) otherwise, on or prior to
the date on which such U.S. Lender becomes a Lender, an Issuer or an Agent
hereunder, (x) on or prior to the date on which any such form or
certification expires or becomes obsolete, (y) after the occurrence of any
event requiring a change in the most recent form or certification
previously delivered by it to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent,

Administrative Agent, provide the Administrative Agent and the Borrower
with two completed originals of Form W-9 (certifying that such U.S. Lender

successor form. Solely for purposes of this SECTION 2.16(f), a U.S. Lender
shall not include a Lender, an Issuer or an Agent that may be treated as an
exempt recipient based on the indicators described in Treasury Regulation
section 1.6049-4(c)(1)(ii).
(g) Any Lender claiming any additional amounts payable pursuant to
this SECTION 2.16 shall use its reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal
policies and Requirements of Law) to change the jurisdiction of its Applicable
Lending Office if the making of such a change would avoid the need for, or
reduce the amount of, any such additional amounts that would be payable or may
thereafter accrue and would not, in the sole determination of such Lender, be
otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender.
SECTION 2.17 SUBSTITUTION OF LENDERS
(a) In the event that (i)(A) any Lender makes a claim under SECTION
2.14(c) (INCREASED COSTS) or 2.15 (CAPITAL ADEQUACY), (B) it becomes illegal for
any Lender to continue to fund or make any Eurodollar Rate Loan and such Lender
notifies the Borrower pursuant to SECTION 2.14(d) (ILLEGALITY), (C) any Loan
Party is required to make any payment pursuant to SECTION 2.16 (TAXES) that is
attributable to a particular Lender or (D) any Lender becomes a Non-Funding
Lender, (ii) in the case of CLAUSE (i)(A) above, as a consequence of increased
costs in respect of which such claim is made, the effective rate of interest

(b) Although the Approved Electronic Platform and its primary web
portal are secured with generally-applicable security procedures and policies
implemented or modified by the Administrative Agent from time to time
(including, as of the Closing Date, a dual firewall and a User ID/Password

Approved Electronic Platform only on a deal-by-deal basis, each of the Lenders,
the Issuers, the Parent and the Borrower acknowledges and agrees, and the Parent

the Issuers, the Parent and the Borrower hereby approves, and the Parent shall
cause each Subsidiary Guarantor to approve, distribution of the Approved
Electronic Communications through the Approved Electronic Platform and

directors, employees, agents, advisors or representatives (the "AGENT
AFFILIATES") warrant the accuracy, adequacy or completeness of the Approved
Electronic Communications and the Approved Electronic Platform and each
expressly disclaims liability for errors or omissions in the Approved Electronic
Communications and the Approved Electronic Platform. No Warranty of any kind,
express, implied or statutory (including, without limitation, any warranty of
merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement of third
party rights or freedom from viruses or other code defects) is made by the agent
affiliates in connection with the approved electronic communications or the
approved electronic platform.

agree, and the Parent shall cause each Subsidiary Guarantor to agree, that each

and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender conduct its own
independent investigation of the financial condition and affairs of the Borrower
and each other Loan Party in connection with the making and continuance of the
Loans and with the issuance of the Letters of Credit. Each Lender and each
Issuer also acknowledges that it shall, independently and without reliance upon
any Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it
shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in
taking or not taking action under this Agreement and other Loan Documents.
SECTION 10.6 INDEMNIFICATION
Each Lender agrees to indemnify each Agent and each of its Affiliates,
and each of their respective directors, officers, employees, agents and advisors

against such Lender's aggregate Ratable Portion of any and all liabilities,
obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs,

for its ratable share of any out-of-pocket expenses (including fees, expenses
and disbursements of financial and legal advisors) incurred by such Agent in
connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration,
modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal

extent that such Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by the Borrower or
any other Loan Party.

SECTION 10.7 SUCCESSOR ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND TRANCHE C AGENT
Each of the Administrative Agent and the Tranche C Agent may resign at
any time by giving written notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrower. Upon
any such resignation by the Administrative Agent, the Requisite Lenders shall
have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent. Upon any such
resignation by the Tranche C Agent, the Requisite Tranche C Lenders shall have
the right to appoint a successor Tranche C Agent. If no successor Agent shall
have been so appointed, and shall have accepted such appointment, within 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 Administrative Agent
(or, as the case may be Tranche C Agent), selected from among the Lenders. In
either case, such appointment shall be subject to the prior written approval of
the Borrower (which approval may not be unreasonably withheld and shall not be
required upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default).
Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent or Tranche C
Agent by a successor Agent, such successor Agent shall 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 under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Prior to any
retiring Agent's resignation hereunder as Administrative Agent or Tranche C
Agent, the retiring Agent shall take such action as may be reasonably necessary
to assign to the successor Agent its rights as Administrative Agent (or, as the
case may be Tranche C Agent) under the Loan Documents. After such resignation,
the retiring Agent shall continue to have the benefit of this ARTICLE X as to
any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent
(or, as the case may be Tranche C Agent) under this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents.
SECTION 10.8 CONCERNING THE COLLATERAL AND THE COLLATERAL DOCUMENTS
(a) Each Lender and each Issuer agrees that any action taken by the
Collateral Agents or the Requisite Lenders (or, where required by the express
terms of this Agreement, a greater proportion of the Lenders) in accordance with
the provisions of this Agreement or of the other Loan Documents, and the
exercise by the Collateral Agents or the Requisite Lenders (or, where so
required, such greater proportion) of the powers set forth herein or therein,
together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be
authorized and binding upon all of the Lenders, Issuers and other Secured
Parties. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (i) the

act as the disbursing and collecting agent for the Lenders and the Issuers with
respect to all payments and collections arising in connection herewith and with
the Collateral Documents, (ii) the Collateral Agents shall jointly have the sole

security interests and Liens with respect to the Collateral, including any
Deposit Accounts maintained by a Loan Party with, and cash and Cash Equivalents
held by, such Lender or such Issuer, (C) manage, supervise and otherwise deal
with the Collateral, (D) take such action as is necessary or desirable to

Document, exercise all remedies given to the Collateral Agents, the Lenders, the

Loan Documents relating thereto, applicable law or otherwise.
(b) Each of the Lenders and the Issuers hereby directs each
Collateral Agent to execute the Intercreditor Agreement and to execute and
deliver or file such termination and partial release statements and do such
other things as are necessary to release Liens to be released or subordinated in
accordance with, and subject to the terms and conditions of, the Intercreditor
Agreement.
SECTION 10.9 COLLATERAL MATTERS RELATING TO RELATED OBLIGATIONS
The benefit of the Loan Documents and of the provisions of this
Agreement relating to the Collateral shall extend to and be available in respect
of any Secured Obligation arising under any Hedging Contract or Cash Management
Obligation or that is otherwise owed to Persons other than the Agents, the
Lenders and the Issuers (collectively, "RELATED OBLIGATIONS") solely on the
condition and understanding, as among the Collateral Agents and all Secured
Parties, that (a) the Related Obligations shall be entitled to the benefit of
the Loan Documents and the Collateral to the extent expressly set forth in this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to such extent the Collateral Agents

duty of care, duty of disclosure or other obligation whatsoever to any holder of
Related Obligations, (b) all matters, acts and omissions relating in any manner
to the Guaranty, the Collateral, or the omission, creation, perfection,

any separate instrument or agreement or in respect of any Related Obligation,
(c) each Secured Party shall be bound by all actions taken or omitted, in
accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents,
by the Collateral Agents and the Requisite Lenders, each of whom shall be
entitled to act at its sole discretion and exclusively in its own interest given
its own Commitments and its own interest in the Loans, Letter of Credit
Obligations and other Obligations to it arising under this Agreement or the
other Loan Documents, without any duty or liability to any other Secured Party
or as to any Related Obligation and without regard to whether any Related
Obligation remains outstanding or is deprived of the benefit of the Collateral
or becomes unsecured or is otherwise affected or put in jeopardy thereby, (d) no
holder of Related Obligations and no other Secured Party (except the Agents, the
Lenders and the Issuers, to the extent set forth in this Agreement) shall have
any right to be notified of, or to direct, require or be heard with respect to,
any action taken or omitted in respect of the Collateral or under this Agreement
or the Loan Documents and (e) no holder of any Related Obligation shall exercise
any right of setoff, banker's lien or similar right except to the extent
provided in SECTION 11.6 (RIGHT OF SET-OFF) and then only to the extent such
right is exercised in compliance with SECTION 11.7 (SHARING OF PAYMENTS, ETC.).

shall not render such sale and purchase (and the corresponding assignment)
invalid and such assignment shall be recorded in the Register.

Borrower and the Administrative Agent, (i) the assignee thereunder shall become
a party hereto and, to the extent that rights and obligations under the Loan
Documents have been assigned to such assignee pursuant to such Assignment and
Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender, and if such Lender were

own expense, shall, if requested by such assignee, execute and deliver to the
Administrative Agent new Notes to the order of such assignee in an amount equal
to the Commitments and Loans assumed by it pursuant to such Assignment and
Acceptance and, if the assigning Lender has surrendered any Note for exchange in
connection with the assignment and has retained Commitments or Loans hereunder,
new Notes to the order of the assigning Lender in an amount equal to the
Commitments and Loans retained by it hereunder. Such new Notes shall be dated
the same date as the surrendered Notes and be in substantially the form of
EXHIBIT B-1 (FORM OF REVOLVING CREDIT NOTE) or EXHIBIT B-2 (FORM OF TERM NOTE),
as applicable.
(e) In addition to the other assignment rights provided in this
SECTION 11.2, each Lender may do each of the following:
(i) grant to a Special Purpose Vehicle the option to make all
or any part of any Loan that such Lender would otherwise be required to
make hereunder and the exercise of such option by any such Special Purpose
Vehicle and the making of Loans pursuant thereto shall satisfy (once and to
the extent that such Loans are made) the obligation of such Lender to make
such Loans thereunder, PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that (x) nothing herein shall
constitute a commitment or an offer to commit by such a Special Purpose
Vehicle to make Loans hereunder and no such Special Purpose Vehicle shall
be liable for any indemnity or other Obligation (other than the making of
Loans for which such Special Purpose Vehicle shall have exercised an
option, and then only in accordance with the relevant option agreement) and
(y) such Lender's obligations under the Loan Documents shall remain
unchanged, such Lender shall remain responsible to the other parties for
the performance of its obligations under the terms of this Agreement, shall
retain all voting rights and shall remain the holder of the Obligations for
all purposes hereunder; and
(ii) assign, as collateral or otherwise, any of its rights
under this Agreement, whether now owned or hereafter acquired (including
rights to payments of principal or interest on the Loans), to (A) without
notice to or consent of the Administrative Agent or the Borrower, any
Federal Reserve Bank (pursuant to Regulation A of the Federal Reserve
Board) and (B) without consent of the Administrative Agent or the Borrower,
(1) any holder of, or trustee for the benefit of, the holders of such
Lender's Securities and (2) any Special Purpose Vehicle to which such
Lender has granted an option pursuant to CLAUSE (i) above;
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that no such assignment or grant shall release such Lender
from any of its obligations hereunder except as expressly provided in CLAUSE (i)
above and except, in the case of a subsequent foreclosure pursuant to an
assignment as collateral, if such foreclosure is made in compliance with the
other provisions of this SECTION 11.2 other than this CLAUSE (e) or CLAUSE (f)

below. Each party hereto acknowledges and agrees that, prior to the date that is
one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding commercial
paper or other senior debt of any such Special Purpose Vehicle, such party shall
not institute against, or join any other Person in instituting against, any
Special Purpose Vehicle that has been granted an option pursuant to this CLAUSE
(e) any bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency or liquidation proceeding (such
agreement shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations). The terms of
the designation of, or assignment to, such Special Purpose Vehicle shall not
restrict such Lender's ability to, or grant such Special Purpose Vehicle the
right to, consent to any amendment or waiver to this Agreement or any other Loan
Document or to the departure by the Borrower or the Parent from any provision of
this Agreement or any other Loan Document without the consent of such Special
Purpose Vehicle except, as long as the Agents, Issuers, Lenders and other
Secured Parties shall continue to, and shall be entitled to continue to, deal
solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender's
obligations under this Agreement, to the extent any such consent would reduce
the principal amount of, or the rate of interest on, any Obligations, amend this
CLAUSE (e) or postpone any scheduled date of payment of such principal or
interest. Each Special Purpose Vehicle shall be entitled to the benefits of
SECTION 2.15 (CAPITAL ADEQUACY) and 2.16 (TAXES) and of 2.14(d) (ILLEGALITY) as
if it were such Lender; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that anything herein to the contrary
notwithstanding, the Borrower shall not, at any time, be obligated to make under
SECTION 2.15 (CAPITAL ADEQUACY), 2.16 (TAXES) or 2.14(d) (ILLEGALITY) to any
such Special Purpose Vehicle or any such Lender any payment in excess of the
amount the Borrower would have been obligated to pay to such Lender in respect
of such interest if such Special Purpose Vehicle had not been assigned the
rights of such Lender hereunder; and PROVIDED, FURTHER, that such Special
Purpose Vehicle shall have no direct right to enforce any of the terms of this
Agreement against the Borrower, the Parent, the Agents, the Issuers, the other
Lenders or the other Secured Parties.
(f) Each Lender may sell participations to one or more Persons in or
to all or a portion of its rights and obligations under the Loan Documents
(including all its rights and obligations with respect to the Term Loans of any
Tranche, Revolving Loans and Letters of Credit). The terms of such participation
shall not, in any event, require the participant's consent to any amendments,
waivers or other modifications of any provision of any Loan Documents, the
consent to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom, or to the exercising or
refraining from exercising any powers or rights such Lender may have under or in
respect of the Loan Documents (including the right to enforce the obligations of
the Loan Parties), except if any such amendment, waiver or other modification or
consent would (i) reduce the amount, or postpone any date fixed for, any amount
(whether of principal, interest or fees) payable to such participant under the
Loan Documents, to which such participant would otherwise be entitled under such
participation or (ii) result in the release of all or substantially all of the
Collateral other than in accordance with SECTION 5.1 (RELEASES; ENFORCEMENT BY
ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT) of the Intercreditor Agreement. In the event of the sale
of any participation by any Lender, (w) such Lender's obligations under the Loan
Documents shall remain unchanged, (x) such Lender shall remain solely
responsible to the other parties for the performance of such obligations, (y)
such Lender shall remain the holder of such Obligations for all purposes of this
Agreement and (z) the Borrower, the Parent, the Agents, the Issuers, the other
Lenders and the other Secured Parties shall continue to deal solely and directly
with such Lender in connection with such Lender's rights and obligations under
this Agreement. Each participant shall be entitled to the benefits of SECTIONS
2.15 (CAPITAL ADEQUACY) and 2.16 (TAXES) and of SECTION 2.14(d) (ILLEGALITY) as
if it were a Lender; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that anything herein to the contrary
notwithstanding, the Borrower shall not, at any time, be obligated to make under
SECTION 2.15 (CAPITAL ADEQUACY), 2.16 (TAXES) or 2.14(d) (ILLEGALITY) to the
participants in the rights and obligations of any Lender (together with such
Lender) any payment

in excess of the amount the Borrower would have been obligated to pay to such
Lender in respect of such interest had such participation not been sold and
PROVIDED, FURTHER, that such participant in the rights and obligations of such
Lender shall have no direct right to enforce any of the terms of this Agreement
against the Borrower, the Parent, the Agents, the Issuers, the other Lenders or
the other Secured Parties.
(g) Any Issuer may at any time assign its rights and obligations
hereunder to any other Lender by an instrument in form and substance
satisfactory to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, such Issuer and such
Lender, subject to the provisions of SECTION 2.7(b) (EVIDENCE OF DEBT) relating
to notations of transfer in the Register. If any Issuer ceases to be a Lender
hereunder by virtue of any assignment made pursuant to this SECTION 11.2, then,
as of the effective date of such cessation, such Issuer's obligations to Issue
Letters of Credit pursuant to SECTION 2.4 (LETTERS OF CREDIT) shall terminate
and such Issuer shall be an Issuer hereunder only with respect to outstanding
Letters of Credit issued prior to such date.
SECTION 11.3 COSTS AND EXPENSES
(a) The Borrower agrees upon demand (but within 10 days after
delivery of notice for any such amounts arising after the Closing Date) to pay,

arising out of any investigation, litigation or proceeding, whether or not such
investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by any such Indemnitee or any
of its directors, security holders or creditors or any such Indemnitee,
director, security holder or creditor is a party thereto, whether direct,
indirect, or consequential and whether based on any federal, state or local law

thereof, or the use or intended use of the proceeds of the Loans or Letters of

not be required to reimburse any Agent, Lender or Issuer (in each case together
with their affiliates, officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys and

addition to the expenses of appropriate local and special counsels). Without
limiting the foregoing, "INDEMNIFIED MATTERS" include (i) all Environmental
Liabilities and Costs arising from or connected with the past, present or future

possession, the successor in interest to the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries,
or the owner, lessee or operator of any property of the Parent or any of its
Subsidiaries by virtue of foreclosure, except, with respect to those matters

incurred following foreclosure by any Agent, any Lender or any Issuer, or any
Agent, any Lender or any Issuer having become the successor in interest to the

Agent, such Lender or such Issuer or any agent on behalf of such Agent, such
Lender or such Issuer.
(b) The Borrower shall indemnify each Agent, Lender and Issuer for,
and hold each Agent, Lender and Issuer harmless from and against, any and all

investigation, litigation or proceeding or requested Remedial Action, the
Borrower, the Parent or such Subsidiary shall promptly do so and such Indemnitee
shall have the right to have legal counsel of its choice participate in such
defense. No action taken by legal counsel chosen by such Indemnitee in defending
against any such investigation, litigation or proceeding or requested Remedial
Action, shall vitiate or in any way impair the Borrower's obligation and duty
hereunder to indemnify and hold harmless such Indemnitee.
(d) Each of the Borrower and the Parent agrees, and shall cause each
of their Subsidiaries to agree, that any indemnification or other protection
provided to any Indemnitee pursuant to this Agreement (including pursuant to
this SECTION 11.4) or any other Loan Document
138

shall (i) survive payment in full of the Obligations and (ii) inure to the
benefit of any Person that was at any time an Indemnitee under this Agreement or
any other Loan Document.
SECTION 11.5 LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
(a) Each of the Borrower and the Parent agree that no Indemnitee
shall have any liability (whether in contract, tort or otherwise) to any Loan
Party or any Subsidiary of any Loan Party or any of their respective equity
holders or creditors for or in connection with the transactions contemplated
hereby (including the Transactions) or by any other Loan Document or the Related
Document, except to the extent such liability is determined in a final
non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted
from such Indemnitee's (or its affiliates, officers, directors, employees,
agents or representatives) gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct. In
no event, however, shall any party hereto be liable on any theory of liability
for any special, consequential or punitive damages (including, without
limitation, any loss of profits, business or anticipated savings). Each of the
parties hereto hereby waives, releases and agrees (each for itself and on behalf
of its Subsidiaries) not to sue upon any such claim for any special,
consequential or punitive damages, whether or not accrued and whether or not
known or suspected to exist in its favor.
(b) IN NO EVENT SHALL ANY AGENT AFFILIATE HAVE ANY LIABILITY TO ANY
LOAN PARTY, LENDER, ISSUER OR ANY OTHER PERSON FOR DAMAGES OF ANY KIND,
INCLUDING DIRECT OR INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES,
LOSSES OR EXPENSES (WHETHER IN TORT OR CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF ANY
LOAN PARTY'S OR ANY AGENT AFFILIATE'S TRANSMISSION OF APPROVED ELECTRONIC
COMMUNICATIONS THROUGH THE INTERNET OR ANY USE OF THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC
PLATFORM, EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT SUCH LIABILITY OF ANY AGENT AFFILIATE IS FOUND IN
A FINAL NON-APPEALABLE JUDGMENT BY A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION TO HAVE
RESULTED FORM SUCH AGENT AFFILIATE'S GROSS NEGLIGENCE, BAD FAITH OR WILLFUL
MISCONDUCT.
SECTION 11.6 RIGHT OF SET-OFF
Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default
each Lender and each Affiliate of a Lender is hereby authorized at any time and
from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply
any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final)
at any time held and other Indebtedness at any time owing by such Lender or its
Affiliates to or for the credit or the account of the Parent or the Borrower
against any and all of the Obligations now or hereafter existing whether or not
such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan
Document and even though such Obligations may be unmatured. Each Lender agrees
promptly to notify the Borrower after any such set-off and application made by
such Lender or its Affiliates; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the failure to give such
notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. The rights
of each Lender under this SECTION 11.6 are in addition to the other rights and
remedies (including other rights of set-off) that such Lender may have.
SECTION 11.7 SHARING OF PAYMENTS, ETC.
(a) Subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, if any Lender (directly
or through an Affiliate thereof) obtains any payment (whether voluntary,

each case, whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of
set-off or otherwise (including pursuant to SECTION 11.6 (RIGHT OF SET-OFF))) in
excess of its Ratable Portion of all payments of such Obligations obtained by
all the Lenders, such Lender (a "PURCHASING LENDER") shall forthwith purchase
from the other Lenders (each, a "SELLING LENDER") such participations in their
Loans or other Obligations as shall be necessary to cause such Purchasing Lender
to share the excess payment ratably with each of them.
(b) If all or any portion of any payment received by a Purchasing
Lender is thereafter recovered from such Purchasing Lender, such purchase from
each Selling Lender shall be rescinded and such Selling Lender shall repay to
the Purchasing Lender the purchase price to the extent of such recovery together
with an amount equal to such Selling Lender's ratable share (according to the
proportion of (i) the amount of such Selling Lender's required repayment in
relation to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the Purchasing Lender) of
any interest or other amount paid or payable by the Purchasing Lender in respect
of the total amount so recovered.

purchasing a participation from a Selling Lender pursuant to this SECTION 11.7

No failure on the part of any Lender, Issuer or any Agent to exercise,
