ARTICLE 2

THE REVOLVING CREDIT FACILITY

Section 2.1 The Loan. Until the Termination Date, Borrowers may request Lenders to make Advances to Borrowers and, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each Lender severally and not jointly agrees to lend such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of each requested Advance up to such Lender’s Commitment which Borrowers may repay and reborrow from time to time. The aggregate unpaid principal amount at any one time outstanding of all Advances shall not exceed the lesser of the Maximum Principal Amount or the Borrowing Base in effect as of the date of determination.

(a) Agent shall establish on its books an account in the name of Borrowers (the “Borrowers’ Loan Account”). A debit balance in Borrowers’ Loan Account shall reflect the amount of Borrowers’ indebtedness to Agent and Lenders from time to time by reason of Advances and other appropriate charges (including, without limitation, interest charges) hereunder. At least once each month, Agent shall provide to Borrowers a statement of Borrowers’ Loan Account which statement shall be considered correct and accepted by Borrowers and conclusively binding upon Borrowers unless Borrowers notify Agent to the contrary within thirty (30) days of Agent’s providing such statement to Borrowers.

(b) Borrowers shall prepare a completed Availability Statement as of each month end and forward such statement to Agent by the twentieth (20th) day of the following month or as may be more frequently required by Agent from time to time.

(c) Each Advance made hereunder shall, in accordance with GAAP, be entered as a debit to Borrowers’ Loan Account, and shall be in a principal amount which, when aggregated with all other Advances then outstanding, shall not exceed the lesser of the then effective Borrowing Base or Maximum Principal Amount.

(d) The Loan shall be due and payable on the Termination Date. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Agent shall have rights and remedies available to it under Article 9 of this Agreement.

(e) Agent has the right at any time, and from time to time, in its reasonable credit judgment discretion exercised in good faith (but without any obligation) upon Fifteen (15) Business Days prior notice, to set aside reasonable reserves against the Borrowing Base (i) in an amount equal to the outstanding indebtedness, liabilities and obligations in connection with Bank Products and (ii) in such other amounts as it may deem reasonably appropriate from the perspective of a secured asset based lender as a result of events impacting the business, operations, property or financial condition of Borrowers or impacting the ability of Agent to exercise rights and remedies against Borrowers and/or the Collateral. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the amount of such reserves in the aggregate exceed Twenty Percent (20%) of the then outstanding principal amount of the Loan.

Section 2.2 The Notes. The indebtedness of Borrowers to each Lender hereunder shall be evidenced by a separate Note executed by Borrowers in favor of such Lender in the principal amount equal to each such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the Maximum Principal Amount. The aggregate principal amount of the Notes will be the Maximum Principal Amount; provided, however, that notwithstanding the face amount of the Notes, Borrowers’ liability under the Notes shall be limited at all times to the actual indebtedness (principal, interest and fees) then outstanding and owing by Borrowers to each Lender hereunder.

Section 2.3 Method of Payment. Borrowers shall make all payments of principal, interest on the Notes and any other fees and amount payable hereunder in lawful money of the United States of America and in funds immediately available by wire transfer or automated clearing house transfer, to Agent at its address referred to in Section 10.4 of this Agreement or at such other address as Agent otherwise directs. Whenever any payment is due on a day, which is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and interest shall be paid for such extended time. As soon as practicable after Agent receives payment from Borrowers, but in no event later than one (1) Business Day after such payment has been made, subject to Section 2.7, Agent will cause to be distributed like funds relating to the payment of principal, interest or fees (other than amounts payable to Agent to reimburse Agent for fees and expenses payable solely to Agent pursuant to the terms of this Agreement) or expenses payable to Agent and Lenders in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, in like funds relating to the payment of any such other amounts payable to Lenders. Borrowers’ obligations to Lenders with respect to such payment shall be discharged by making such payments to Agent pursuant to this Section 2.3 or, if not timely paid or any Event of Default then exists, may be added to the principal amount of the Loans outstanding.

Section 2.4 Extension and Adjustment of Maturity Date. Upon the written agreement of Borrowers, Agent and Lenders, the Maturity Date may be extended.

Section 2.5 Use of Proceeds. The initial Advance shall be used to refinance and pay Borrowers’ existing indebtedness and thereafter to finance Borrowers’ working capital and operational needs and for other lawful purposes except as limited under this Agreement.

Section 2.6 Interest.

(a) In the absence of an Event of Default hereunder, and prior to maturity, the outstanding principal balance of the Loan will bear interest at an annual rate at all times equal to the LIBOR Rate plus the Applicable Margin.

(b) Interest shall be payable monthly in arrears on the first (1st) day of each month commencing on the first such date after the first Advance under the Loan and continuing until the Loan is indefeasibly paid in full. For interest and fees not paid within the grace period pursuant to Section 8.1 of this Agreement, Borrowers shall be deemed to have requested an Advance on the first day after the grace period expires in an amount equal to accrued and unpaid interest and any other accrued but unpaid fees due and owing hereunder and such amount shall be added to the outstanding principal balance of the Loan. Interest as provided hereunder will be calculated on the basis of a three hundred sixty (360) day year and the actual number of days elapsed. The rate of interest provided for hereunder is subject to increase or decrease when and as the LIBOR Rate increases or decreases in an amount corresponding to the change in the LIBOR Rate. Any such change in the interest rate hereunder shall take effect the first day of the month following a change in the LIBOR Rate.

(c) From and after the Maturity Date, or such earlier date as the outstanding principal balance of the Loan and other Obligations become due and payable by acceleration or otherwise, or at Agent’s option upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Borrowers hereby agree to pay interest on the outstanding principal balance of the Loan and other Obligations and, to the extent permitted by law, overdue interest with respect thereto, at the rate of Five Percent (5.0%) per annum above the rate of interest otherwise applicable to the Loan.

Section 2.7 Advances.

(a) Borrower Agent shall notify Agent in writing not later than 12:00 Noon Central time, on the date of each requested Advance, specifying the date and amount of the Advance. Such notice shall be submitted via Agent’s online automatic request system in the form of the Request for Advance and shall be certified by the President or Treasurer (or such other authorized Person as Borrower Agent directs from time to time) of Borrower Agent.

(b) Agent shall give to each Lender prompt notice (but in no event later than 1:00 P.M., Central time on the date of Agent’s receipt of notice from Borrowers) of each Request for Advance by facsimile. No later than 2:00 P.M., Central time on the date on which an Advance is requested to be made pursuant to the applicable Request for Advance, each Lender will make available to Agent at the address of Agent set forth in Section 10.4, in immediately available funds, its Commitment Percentage of such Advance requested to be made. Unless Agent shall have been notified by any Lender prior to the date of Advance that such Lender does not intend to make available to Agent its portion of the Advance to be made on such date, Agent may assume that such Lender will make such amount available to Agent as required above and Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available the amount of the Advance to be provided by such Lender. Upon fulfillment of the conditions set forth in Sections 2.7(a) and 5.2 for such Advance, and as soon as practicable after receipt of funds from Lenders (but in any event not later than 2:00 P.M., Central time) Agent will make such funds as have been received from Lenders available to Borrowers at the account specified by Borrowers in such Request for Advance.

(c) To administer the Loan in an efficient manner and to minimize the transfer of funds between Agent and Lenders, Lenders hereby instruct Agent, and Agent may (in its sole discretion, without any obligation) (i) make available, on behalf of Lenders, the full amount of all Advances requested by Borrowers, without giving each Lender prior notice of the proposed Advance, of such Lender’s Commitment Percentage thereof and the other matters covered by the Request for Advance and (ii) if Agent has made any such amounts available as provided in clause (i), upon repayment of Loans by Borrowers, first apply such amounts repaid directly to the amounts made available by Agent in accordance with clause (i) and not yet settled as described below. If Agent makes an Advance on behalf of Lenders, as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, the amount of outstanding Loans and each Lender’s Commitment Percentage thereof shall be computed weekly rather than daily and shall be adjusted upward or downward on the basis of the amount of outstanding Loans as of 5:00 P.M., Central time on the Business Day immediately preceding the date of each computation; provided, however, that Agent retains the absolute right at any time or from time to time to make the afore-described adjustments at intervals more frequent than weekly. Agent shall deliver to each of Lenders at the end of each week, or such lesser period or periods as Agent shall determine, a summary statement of the amount of outstanding Loans for such period (such week or lesser period or periods being hereafter referred to as a “Settlement Period”). If the summary statement is sent by Agent and received by Lenders prior to 12:00 Noon, Central time on any Business Day each Lender shall make the transfers described in the next succeeding sentence no later than 3:00 P.M., Central time on the day such summary statement was sent; and if such summary statement is sent by Agent and received by Lenders after 12:00 Noon, Central time on any Business Day, each Lender shall make such transfers no later than 3:00 P.M., Central time no later than the next succeeding Business Day after such summary statement was sent. If in any Settlement Period, the amount of a Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the Loans is in excess of the amount of Loans actually funded by such Lender, such Lender shall forthwith (but in no event later than the time set forth in the next preceding sentence) transfer to Agent by wire transfer in immediately available funds the amount of such excess; and, on the other hand, if the amount of a Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the Loans in any Settlement Period is less than the amount of Loans actually funded by such Lender, Agent shall forthwith transfer to such Lender by wire transfer in immediately available funds the amount of such difference. The obligation of each of Lenders to transfer such funds shall be irrevocable and unconditional, without recourse to or warranty by Agent and made without setoff or deduction of any kind. Each of Agent and Lenders agree to ▇▇▇▇ their respective books and records at the end of each Settlement Period to show at all times the dollar amount of their respective Commitment Percentages of the outstanding Loans. Because Agent on behalf of Lenders may be advancing and/or may be repaid Loans prior to the time when Lenders will actually advance and/or be repaid Loans, interest with respect to Loans shall be allocated by Agent to each Lender (including Agent) in accordance with the amount of Loans actually advanced by and repaid to each Lender (including Agent) during each Settlement Period and shall accrue from and including the date such Advance is made by Agent to but excluding the date such Loans are repaid by Borrower in accordance with Section 2.3 or actually settled by the applicable Lender as described in this Section 2.7(c). All such Advances made by Agent on behalf of Lenders hereunder shall bear interest at the interest rate applicable hereunder for Advances.

(d) If the amounts described in subsection (b) or (c) of this Section 2.7 are not in fact made available to Agent by a Lender (such Lender being hereinafter referred to as a “Defaulting Lender”) and Agent has made such amount available to Borrowers, Agent shall be entitled to recover such corresponding amount on demand from such Defaulting Lender. If such Defaulting Lender does not pay such corresponding amount forthwith upon Agent’s demand therefor, Agent shall promptly notify Borrowers and Borrowers shall immediately (but in no event later than two (2) Business Days after such demand) pay such corresponding amount to Agent. Agent shall also be entitled to recover from such Defaulting Lender or, to the extent not recovered from the Defaulting Lender, from Borrowers, (i) interest on such corresponding amount in respect of each day from the date such corresponding amount was made available by Agent to Borrowers to the date such corresponding amount is recovered by Agent, at a rate per annum equal to either (A) if paid by such Defaulting Lender, the overnight federal funds rate or (B) if paid by Borrowers, the then applicable rate of interest, calculated in accordance with Section 2.6, plus (ii) in each case, an amount equal to any costs (including reasonable legal expenses) and losses incurred as a result of the failure of such Defaulting Lender to provide such amount as provided in this Agreement. Nothing herein shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its commitments hereunder or to prejudice any rights which Borrowers may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder, including, without limitation, the right of Borrowers to seek reimbursement from any Defaulting Lender for any amounts paid by Borrowers under clause (ii) above on account of such Defaulting Lender’s default.

(e) The failure of any Lender to make its portion of the Advance to be made by it as part of any Advance shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation, if any, hereunder to make its Advance on the date of such borrowing, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make the Advance to be made by such other Lender on the date of any Advance. The amounts payable by each Lender shall be a separate and independent obligation.

(f) Each Lender shall be entitled to earn interest at the then applicable rate of interest, calculated in accordance with Section 2.6, on outstanding Loans which it has funded to Agent from the date such Lender funded such Advance to, but excluding, the date on which such Lender is repaid with respect to the Loan.

(g) Agent shall not be obligated to transfer to any Defaulting Lender any payments made by Borrowers to Agent for the Defaulting Lender’s benefit; nor will a Defaulting Lender be entitled to the sharing of any payments hereunder. Amounts payable to a Defaulting Lender shall instead be paid to or retained by Agent. Agent may hold and, in its discretion, re-lend to Borrowers the amount of all such payments received or retained by it for the account of such Defaulting Lender. Any amounts so re-lent to Borrowers shall earn interest at the interest rate applicable hereunder and for all other purposes of this Agreement shall be treated as if they were Advances; provided, however, that for purposes of voting or consenting to matters with respect to the Credit Documents and determining Commitment Percentages, such Defaulting Lender shall be deemed not to be a “Lender”, and each of such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment and the unpaid principal balance of the Advances owing to such Defaulting Lender shall be deemed to be zero (-0-). Until a Defaulting Lender cures its failure to fund its pro rata share of any Advance, such Defaulting Lender shall not be entitled to any portion of the unused line fee payable pursuant to Section 2.9(b) of this Agreement. This Section 2.7(g) shall remain effective with respect to such Lender until such time as the Defaulting Lender shall no longer be in default of any of its obligations under this Agreement. The terms of this Section 2.7(g) shall not be construed to increase or otherwise affect the Commitment of any Lender, or relieve or excuse the performance by Borrowers of their duties and obligations hereunder or under any of the other Credit Documents. Nothing contained in this Section 2.7 or otherwise in this Agreement shall impair or limit any claim of Borrowers against a Defaulting Lender (including, without limitation, expenses incurred by Borrowers by reason of any such default) who breaches its commitment to fund Advances hereunder.

(h) Each request for an Advance pursuant to this Section 2.7 shall be irrevocable and binding on Borrowers.

Section 2.8 Prepayment.

(a) Optional Prepayments. Borrowers may prepay the Loan from time to time, in full or in part without premium or penalty, provided that (i) except as otherwise contemplated herein, in the event Borrowers repay the Loan in full at any time prior to the Maturity Date, Borrowers shall pay a sum equal to Two Percent (2.0%) of the Maximum Principal Amount as a prepayment fee, (ii) prepayments shall be in a minimum amount of Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000) and Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000) increments in excess thereof; and (iii) partial prepayments prior to the Termination Date shall not reduce Lenders’ Commitments under this Agreement and may be reborrowed, subject to the terms and conditions hereof for borrowing, and partial prepayments will be applied first to accrued interest and fees and then to outstanding Advances. Each Borrower acknowledges that the above described fee is an estimate of Lenders’ damages in the event of early termination and is not a penalty. In the event of termination of the credit facility established pursuant to this Agreement, all of the Obligations shall be immediately due and payable upon the termination date stated in any notice of termination. All undertakings, agreements, covenants, warranties and representations of Borrowers contained in the Credit Documents shall survive any such termination, and Agent shall retain its liens in the Collateral and all of its rights and remedies under the Credit Documents notwithstanding such termination until Borrowers have paid the Obligations to Agent and Lenders, in full, in immediately available funds, together with the applicable termination fee, if any.

(b) Mandatory Prepayments. In the event that amounts outstanding hereunder at any time exceed the Borrowing Base (whether established by an Availability Statement or otherwise) (an “Overadvance”) (i) except as provided in clause (ii) below, Borrowers shall pay to Agent immediately the amount by which Borrowers’ indebtedness hereunder exceeds the Borrowing Base and (ii) if such Overadvance is caused solely as a result of Agent establishing a reserve against the Borrowing Base pursuant to Section 2.1(e) hereof, Borrowers shall pay to Agent the amount by which Borrowers’ indebtedness hereunder exceeds the Borrowing Base within thirty (30) Business Days of the establishment of such reserve; it being acknowledged that during such thirty (30) Business Day period (x) no Default or Event of Default shall arise solely as a result of such Overadvance and (y) Agent and Lenders shall not be obligated to make any additional Advances.

Section 2.9 Fees. Borrowers shall pay to Agent, at Agent’s offices, the following:

(a) Administrative Fee. A non-refundable administrative fee of $3,000 shall be due and payable monthly in arrears on the 1st day of each month commencing on the first such date after the funding of this Agreement and continuing until the Commitment is terminated and the Obligations owing under this Agreement are indefeasibly paid in full, in which event a monthly installment of the administrative fee shall be paid pro-rata on the date of such termination.

(b) Unused Line Fee. An unused line fee at the rate of One-Half of One Percent (0.50%) per annum (computed on the basis of a three hundred sixty (360) day year and the actual number of days elapsed) on the average daily unused Commitments shall be due and payable monthly in arrears on the 1st day of each month commencing on the first such date after the funding of this Agreement and continuing until the Commitment is terminated, in which event a monthly installment of the administrative fee shall be paid pro-rata on the date of such termination.

Section 2.10 Regulatory Changes in Capital Requirements; Replacement of a Lender.

(a) Regulatory Changes in Capital Requirements.

(i) If any Lender shall have determined that the adoption or the effectiveness after the date hereof of any law, rule, regulation or guideline regarding capital adequacy, or any change in any of the foregoing or in the interpretation or administration of any of the foregoing by any governmental authority, central lender or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by such Lender (or any lending office of such Lender) or such Lender’s holding company with any industry wide request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central lender or comparable agency, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, to a level below that which such Lender or its holding company could have achieved on the portion of the Loans made by such Lender pursuant hereto but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by such Lender to be material, then from time to time Borrowers shall pay to such Lender on demand such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or its holding company for any such reduction suffered together with interest on each such amount from the date demanded until payment in full thereof at the rate provided in Section 2.6 with respect to amounts not paid when due. Agent will notify Borrowers of any event occurring after the date of this Agreement that will entitle a Lender to compensation pursuant to this Section 2.10(a) as promptly as practicable after it obtains knowledge thereof and determines to request such compensation.

(ii) Nothing in this Section shall be deemed to require Borrowers to pay any amount to a Lender to the extent such Lender has been compensated therefor under another provision of this Agreement or to the extent such amount is already reflected in the applicable interest rate.

(iii) Each Lender agrees that it shall use its reasonable efforts to reduce or eliminate any claim for compensation pursuant to this Section 2.10, including but not limited to designating a different lending office if such designation will avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, any increased amounts referred to in this Section 2.10 and will not, in the reasonable opinion of such Lender, be unlawful or otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender or inconsistent with its policies or result in any unreimbursed cost or expense to such Lender or in an increase in the aggregate amount payable under this Section 2.10.

(iv) Each Lender claiming increased amounts described in this Section 2.10 will furnish to the (together with its request for compensation) a certificate prepared in good faith setting forth the basis and the calculation of the amount (in reasonable detail) of each request by such Lender for any such increased amounts referred to in this Section 2.10. Any such certificate shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall deliver a copy thereof to Borrowers. A Lender shall not be compensated for any amount relating to any period ending, and of which such Lender has had knowledge, more than six (6) months prior to the date that such Lender notifies Borrowers in writing thereof or for any amounts resulting from a change by any Lender of its lending office or its internal policies (other than changes required by law).

(v) In the event that increased amounts to be paid by Borrowers pursuant to this Section exceed Two Percent (2.0%) of the then outstanding principal balance of Loans, Borrowers shall be entitled to prepay the Loan upon five (5) days prior written notice to Agent, without any prepayment fee payable required pursuant to Section 2.8(a) to the Lender requesting compensation under this Section 2.10.

(b) Replacement of a Lender. If Borrowers become obligated to pay additional amounts to any Lender pursuant to Section 2.10(a), then Borrowers may within thirty (30) days thereafter designate another bank that is acceptable to Agent in its discretion (such other bank being called a “Replacement Lender”) to purchase the Loans of such Lender and such Lender’s rights hereunder, without recourse to or warranty by, or expense to, such Lender, for a purchase price equal to the outstanding principal amount of the Loans payable to such Lender plus any accrued but unpaid interest on such Loans and all accrued but unpaid fees owed to such Lender and any other amounts payable to such Lender under this Agreement, and to assume all the obligations of such Lender hereunder, and, upon such purchase and assumption (pursuant to an Assignment and Acceptance), such Lender shall no longer be a party hereto or have any rights hereunder (other than rights with respect to indemnities and similar rights applicable to such Lender prior to the date of such purchase and assumption) and shall be relieved from all obligations to Borrower hereunder, and the Replacement Lender shall succeed to the rights and obligations of such Lender hereunder.

Section 2.11 Sharing of Payments. If any Lender shall obtain any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of setoff or otherwise) on account of the Loans made by it in excess of its pro rata share of such payment as provided for in this Agreement, such Lender shall forthwith purchase from the other Lenders such participations in the Loans made by them as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment accruing to all Lenders in accordance with their respective ratable shares as provided for in this Agreement; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess is thereafter recovered from such purchasing Lender, such purchase from each Lender shall be rescinded and each such Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase price to the extent of such recovery together with an amount equal to such Lender’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (a) the amount of such Lender’s required repayment to (b) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender) or any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Lender in respect to the total amount so recovered.

To the address set forth on Schedule I

or to such other address as any party shall specify to the other party in writing in accordance with this Section 10.4.

Section 10.5 Termination and Release. This Agreement shall not terminate until all amounts due under the Notes, this Agreement and any other Credit Document and other Obligations, together with all interest and costs due, shall have been indefeasibly paid in full and the Commitments have expired or otherwise have been terminated. Upon such termination and payment of amounts owing under this Agreement, the Collateral securing the Loan, the Notes, this Agreement and the other Obligations shall be released from the provisions of this Agreement and any right, title and interest of Agent in or to the same shall cease. Thereafter, Agent agrees to deliver to Borrowers such documents as Borrowers are required to release of record any security interest or lien of Agent in the Collateral.

Section 10.6 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, and it shall not be necessary in making proof of this Agreement to produce or account for more than one such counterpart. Signature by facsimile or electronic transmission shall bind the parties hereto.

Section 10.7 Costs, Expenses and Taxes. Borrowers agree to pay promptly upon demand reasonable legal fees and out-of-pocket expenses of Agent related to the preparation, negotiation, documentation, execution, filing or delivery of this Agreement or any other Credit Document and any and all waivers, amendments or modifications of any of the Credit Documents or any of the terms and provisions thereof and any and all audits and required inspections permitted under this Agreement or any other Credit Documents. Borrowers shall also pay promptly upon demand therefore all fees (including without limitation, legal fees and expenses), costs and other expenses incurred in connection with collection of the Loan, the maintenance or preservation of the security interest in the Collateral, the sale, disposition or other realization on the Collateral, or the enforcement of Agent’s and Lenders’ rights hereunder or under any Credit Document, including, without limitation, such fees, costs and expenses incurred by Agent which Agent, in its reasonable business judgment, deems reasonably necessary to preserve or protect the business conducted by Borrowers, the Collateral, or any portion thereof. In addition, Borrowers shall also pay any and all stamp and other taxes or filing fees payable or determined to be payable in connection with the execution and delivery of the Notes and this Agreement, the Collateral and other documents to be delivered hereunder, and Borrowers agree to save Agent and Lenders harmless from and against any and all liabilities with respect to or resulting from any delay in payment or omission to pay such taxes.

Section 10.8 Participations and Assignments.

(a) This Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of each signatory, its successors and assigns; provided, however that, Borrowers shall not have the right to assign or delegate their obligations and duties under this Agreement or any other Credit Documents or any interest therein except with the prior written consent of Agent and Lenders.

(b) Notwithstanding subsection (c) of this Section 10.8, nothing herein shall restrict, prevent or prohibit any Lender from (i) pledging its Loans hereunder to a Federal Reserve Bank in support of borrowings made by such Lender from such Federal Reserve Bank or (ii) granting assignments or participations in such Lender’s Loans hereunder to its parent and/or to any affiliate of such Lender or to any existing Lender or affiliate thereof. Any Lender may make, carry or transfer Loans at, to or for the account of, any of its branch offices or the office of an affiliate of such Lender except to the extent such transfer would result in increased costs to Borrower.

(c) Each Lender may, with the prior written consent of Agent and (if no Default or Event of Default is outstanding) with the prior written consent of Borrowers, assign to one or more banks or other financial institutions all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the Notes. In connection with each assignment: (i) the parties thereto shall execute and deliver to Agent, for its acceptance (if properly completed and executed in accordance with the terms hereof) and recording in its books and records, an Assignment and Acceptance, together with any Note or Notes subject to such assignment and a processing and recordation fee of Three Thousand Five Hundred Dollars ($3,500) to be paid by the assignee, and (ii) no such assignment shall be for less than Twenty Million Dollars ($20,000,000) or, if less, the entire remaining Commitment of such Lender, each such assignment shall be of a uniform, and not a varying, percentage of all rights and obligations under and in respect of both the Commitment of such Lender and all Loans of such Lender. Upon such execution and delivery of the Assignment and Acceptance to Agent, from and after the date specified as the effective date in the Assignment and Acceptance (“Acceptance Date”), (x) the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto, and, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned to it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, such assignee shall have the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder and (y) the assignor thereunder shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, relinquish its rights (other than any rights it may have pursuant to Section 10.1 which will survive) and be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto).

(d) Within five (5) Business Days after demand by Agent, Borrowers shall execute and deliver to Agent in exchange for any surrendered Note or Notes (which the assigning Lender agrees to promptly deliver to Borrowers) a new Note or Notes to the order of the assignee in an amount equal to the Commitment assumed by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance and, if the assigning Lender has retained a Commitment hereunder, a new Note or Notes to the order of the assigning Lender in an amount equal to the Commitment retained by it hereunder. Such new Note or Notes shall re-evidence the indebtedness outstanding under the old Notes or Notes and shall be in an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of such surrendered Note or Notes and shall otherwise be in substantially the form of the Note or Notes subject to such assignments.

(e) Each Lender may, with the prior written consent of Agent, but without the consent of any other Lender or Borrowers, sell participations to one or more parties (a “Participant”) in or to all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, all or a portion of its Commitments, the Loans owing to it and the Note or Notes held by it); provided that if such Lender obtains the consents required under this clause (e) then (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, its Commitment to Borrowers hereunder) shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (iii) such Lender shall remain the holder of any such Note for all purposes of this Agreement, (iv) Borrowers, Agent, and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and (v) such Lender shall not transfer, grant, assign or sell any participation under which the Participant shall have rights to approve any amendment or waiver of this Agreement.

(f) Each Lender agrees that, without the prior written consent of Borrowers and Agent, it will not make any assignment or sell a participation hereunder in any manner or under any circumstances that would require registration or qualification of, or filings in respect of, any Advance, Note or other Obligation under the securities laws of the United States of America or of any jurisdiction.

(g) In connection with the efforts of any Lender to assign its rights or obligations or to participate interests, Agent or such Lender may, but only after acquiring applicable confidentiality agreements customarily used by Agent or such Lender (each a “Confidentiality Agreement”), disclose any information in its possession regarding Borrowers, their finances and/or Property; provided, however, if no Default or Event of Default is outstanding, each such Confidentiality Agreement shall be in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Borrowers. By executing and delivering an Assignment and Acceptance, the assigning Lender thereunder and the assignee thereunder confirm to and agree with each other and the other parties hereto as follows: (i) other than as provided in such Assignment and Acceptance, such assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement or the execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement or any other Loan Document furnished pursuant hereto; (ii) such assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to the financial condition of Borrowers or the performance or observance by Borrowers of any of their obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Document furnished pursuant hereto; (iii) such assignee confirms that it has received a copy of this Agreement, together with such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into such Assignment and Acceptance; (iv) such assignee will, independently and without reliance upon Agent, such assigning Lender 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; (v) such assignee appoints and authorizes Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement as are delegated to Agent by the terms hereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto; and (vi) such assignee agrees that it will perform in accordance with their terms all of the obligations which by the terms of this Agreement are required to be performed by it as a Lender.

Section 10.9 Effectiveness of Agreement. Anything to the contrary in this Agreement notwithstanding, the provisions hereof shall not be effective until this Agreement is: (a) duly executed, and delivered by authorized officers of Borrowers to Agent; and (b) duly signed by an authorized officer of Agent.

Section 10.10 JURISDICTION AND VENUE. IN ANY JUDICIAL PROCEEDING INVOLVING, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, ANY MATTER ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY CREDIT DOCUMENT OR THE RELATIONSHIP ESTABLISHED HEREUNDER, BORROWERS HEREBY IRREVOCABLY SUBMIT TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF ANY STATE OR FEDERAL COURT LOCATED IN POLK COUNTY, IOWA AND AGREE NOT TO RAISE ANY OBJECTION TO SUCH JURISDICTION OR TO THE LAYING OR MAINTAINING OF THE VENUE OF ANY SUCH PROCEEDING IN SUCH COUNTY.

Section 10.11 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY JUDICIAL PROCEEDING INVOLVING, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, ANY MATTER (WHETHER SOUNDING IN TORT, CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE) IN ANY WAY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY CREDIT DOCUMENT OR THE RELATIONSHIP ESTABLISHED HEREUNDER. THIS PROVISION IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR AGENT AND LENDERS TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT.

Section 10.12 REVIEW BY COUNSEL. BORROWERS ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THEY HAVE HAD THE ASSISTANCE OF COUNSEL IN THE REVIEW AND EXECUTION OF THIS AGREEMENT AND, SPECIFICALLY, SECTIONS 10.10 AND 10.11 HEREOF, AND FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE MEANING AND EFFECT OF THE FOREGOING WAIVER OF JURISDICTION AND VENUE OBJECTION AND JURY TRIAL HAVE BEEN FULLY EXPLAINED TO BORROWERS BY THEIR COUNSEL.

Section 10.13 Exchanging Information.

It is understood that the financial terms that may not be disclosed except in compliance with this Section 10.13 are: all fees and other pricing terms, and all provisions relating to Events of Default. Agent and Lenders hereto further agree that, notwithstanding anything else contained herein, they will not disclose any Proprietary Information to any potential Lender or agent who may be reasonably be considered to be a competitor of Servicer, without the prior written consent of the Servicer.

(b) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each party (and each employee, representative or other agent of each party) hereto may disclose to any and all persons, without limitation of any kind, any information with respect to the United States federal income “tax treatment” and “tax structure” of the transactions contemplated hereby (including opinions or other tax analyses) that are provided to such parties (or their representatives) relating to such tax treatment and tax structure; provided that with respect to any document or similar item that in either case contains information concerning the tax treatment or tax structure of the transaction as well as other information, this sentence shall only apply to such portions of the document or similar item that relate to the tax treatment or tax structure of the transactions contemplated hereby.

ARTICLE 11

AGENT

Section 11.1 Appointment of Agent.

(a) Each Lender hereby designates ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo Preferred Capital, Inc. as Agent to act as herein specified. Each Lender hereby irrevocably authorizes, and each holder of any Note by the acceptance of a Note or participation, shall be deemed irrevocably to authorize Agent to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and the Notes and any other Credit Documents and to exercise such powers and to perform such duties hereunder and thereunder as are specifically delegated to or required of Agent by the terms hereof and thereof and such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Agent shall hold all Collateral and all payments of principal, interest, fees (other than any fees payable solely for the account of Agent), charges and expenses received pursuant to this Agreement or any other Credit Document for the ratable benefit of Lenders except as otherwise provided herein. Agent may perform any of its duties hereunder by or through its agents or employees.

(b) The provisions of this Article 11 are solely for the benefit of Agent and Lenders, and Borrowers shall not have any rights as a third party beneficiary of any of the provisions hereof (except for the applicable provision of Section 11.9(a)). In performing its functions and duties under this Agreement, Agent shall act solely as agent of Lenders and does not assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation toward or relationship of agency or trust with or for Borrowers.

Section 11.2 Nature of Duties of Agent. Agent shall have no duties or responsibilities except those expressly set forth in this Agreement. Neither Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees or agents shall be liable for any action taken or omitted by it as such hereunder or in connection herewith, unless caused by its or their gross negligence or willful misconduct. The duties of Agent shall be mechanical and administrative in nature; Agent shall not have by reason of this Agreement a fiduciary relationship in respect of any Lender; and nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, is intended to or shall be so construed as to impose upon Agent any obligations in respect of this Agreement except as expressly set forth herein.

Section 11.3 Lack of Reliance on Agent.

(a) Independently and without reliance upon Agent, each Lender, to the extent it deems appropriate, has made and shall continue to make (i) its own independent investigation of the financial or other condition and affairs of Borrowers in connection with the taking or not taking of any action in connection herewith and (ii) its own appraisal of the creditworthiness of Borrowers, and, except as expressly provided in this Agreement, Agent shall have no duty or responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis, to provide any Lender with any credit or other information with respect thereto, whether coming into its possession before the making of Advances or at any time or times thereafter. In addition to the foregoing, Agent agrees to provide summary reports to Lenders in connection with inspections and audits performed under Section 6.3 for informational purposes only and Agent shall not be responsible for the accuracy of any information contained therein.

(b) Agent shall not be responsible to any Lender for any recitals, statements, information, representations or warranties herein or in any document, certificate or other writing delivered in connection herewith or for the execution, effectiveness, genuineness, validity, enforceability, collectibility, priority or sufficiency of this Agreement, the Notes, the Credit Documents or the financial or other condition of Borrowers. Agent shall not be required to make any inquiry concerning either the performance or observance of any of the terms, provisions or conditions of this Agreement or the Notes, or the financial condition of Borrowers, or the existence or possible existence of any Default or Event of Default, unless specifically requested to do so in writing by any Lender.

Section 11.4 Certain Rights of Agent. Without limiting Agent’s rights and discretion under any provision hereof, Agent shall have the right to request instructions from the Required Lenders or, as required, each of Lenders. If Agent shall request instructions from the Required Lenders or each of Lenders, as the case may be, with respect to any act or action (including the failure to act) in connection with this Agreement, Agent shall be entitled to refrain from such act or taking such action unless and until Agent shall have received instructions from the Required Lenders or each of Lenders, as the case may be, and Agent shall not incur liability to any Person by reason of so refraining. Without limiting the foregoing, no Lender shall have any right of action whatsoever against Agent as a result of Agent acting or refraining from acting hereunder in accordance with the instructions of the Required Lenders or each of Lenders, as the case may be.

Section 11.5 Reliance by Agent. Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any note, writing, resolution, notice, statement, certificate, facsimile, telex teletype or telecopier message, e-mail or other electronic transmission, cablegram, radiogram, order or other documentary, teletransmission or telephone message believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper person. Agent may consult with legal counsel (including counsel for Borrowers with respect to matters concerning Borrowers), independent public accountants and other experts selected by it and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts.

Section 11.6 Indemnification of Agent. To the extent Agent is not reimbursed and indemnified by Borrowers, each Lender will reimburse and indemnify Agent, in proportion to its respective Commitment, for and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses (including counsel fees and disbursements) or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement, provided that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting solely from Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.

Section 11.7 Agent in its Individual Capacity. With respect to its obligation to lend under this Agreement, the Advances made by it and the Notes issued to it and all of its rights and obligations as a Lender hereunder and under other Credit Documents, Agent shall have the same rights and powers hereunder as any other Lender or holder of a Note or participation interests and may exercise the same as though it was not performing the duties specified herein; and the terms “Lenders”, “Required Lenders”, “holders of Notes”, or any similar terms shall, unless the context clearly otherwise indicates, include Agent in its individual capacity. Agent may accept deposits from, lend money to, acquire equity interests in, and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory or other business with Borrowers or any Affiliate of Borrowers as if it were not performing the duties specified herein, and may accept fees and other consideration from Borrowers for services in connection with this Agreement and otherwise without having to account for the same with Lenders.

Section 11.8 Holders of Notes. Agent may deem and treat the payee of any Note as the owner thereof for all purposes hereof unless and until a written notice of the assignment or transfer thereof shall have been filed with Agent. Any request, authority or consent of any Person who, at the time of making such request or giving such authority or consent, is the holder of any Note, shall be conclusive and binding on any subsequent holder, transferee or assignee of such Note or of any Note or Notes issued in exchange therefor.

Section 11.9 Successor Agent.

(a) Agent may, upon five (5) Business Days notice to Lenders and Borrowers, resign at any time (effective upon the appointment of a successor Agent pursuant to the provisions of this Section 11.9(a)) by giving written notice thereof to Lenders and Borrowers. Upon any such resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, upon five (5) days notice, to appoint a successor Agent. If no successor Agent shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders, and shall have accepted such appointment, within thirty (30) days after the retiring Agent’s giving of notice of resignation, then, upon five (5) days notice, the retiring Agent may, on behalf of Lenders, appoint a successor Agent, which shall be a bank or other financial institution which maintains an office in the United States, or a commercial bank organized under the laws of the United States of America or of any State thereof, or any affiliate of such bank or trust or other financial institution which is engaged in the banking business, having a combined capital and surplus of at least Five Hundred Million Dollars ($500,000,000); provided, however, that Required Lenders may, upon five (5) days notice, replace any such successor Agent appointed by a retiring Agent.

(b) 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 under this Agreement. After any retiring Agent’s resignation hereunder as Agent, the provisions of this Article 11 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Agent under this Agreement. In the event Agent or its assets are taken over by any state or federal agency having jurisdiction over Agent or its assets, a majority of the Lenders other than Agent may appoint a successor to Agent.

Section 11.10 Collateral Matters.

(a) Each Lender authorizes and directs Agent to accept the other Credit Documents for the benefit of Lenders. Agent is hereby authorized, on behalf of all Lenders, without the necessity of any notice to or further consent from any Lender, from time to time prior to an Event of Default, to take any action, in its sole discretion, with respect to any Collateral or Credit Document which may be necessary or appropriate to perfect and maintain perfected or enforce the Liens upon the Collateral granted pursuant to this Agreement.

(b) Lenders hereby authorize Agent, at its option and in its discretion, to release any Lien granted to or held by Agent upon any Collateral (i) upon termination of the Commitments and payment in immediately available funds and satisfaction of all of the Obligations at any time arising under or in respect of this Agreement or the Credit Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby (other than contingent indemnification obligations), (ii) constituting Property being sold or disposed of upon receipt of the proceeds of such sale by Agent if the sale or disposition is permitted under this Agreement or any other Credit Document or is made by Agent in the enforcement of its rights hereunder following the occurrence of an Event of Default or (iii) if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders, unless such release is required to be approved by all Lenders hereunder; provided, however, that Agent may, in its discretion, upon request by Borrowers, release Agent’s Liens on Collateral value in the aggregate not in excess of Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000) during any one year period without the prior written approval or authorization of any of the other Lenders. Upon request by Agent at any time, Lenders will confirm in writing Agent’s authority to release particular types or items of Collateral pursuant to this Section 11.10(b).

(c) Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to Lenders or to any other Person to assure that the Collateral exists or is in the possession of a custodian pursuant to the Custodian Agreement or is owned by Borrowers or is cared for, protected or insured or that the Liens granted to Agent herein or pursuant hereto have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected or enforced or are entitled to any particular priority, or to exercise or to continue exercising at all or in any manner or under any duty of care, disclosure or fidelity any of the rights, authorities and powers granted or available to Agent in this Section 11.10 or in any of the Credit Documents, it being understood and agreed that in respect of the Collateral, or any act, omission or event related thereto, Agent may act in any manner it may deem appropriate, in its sole discretion, given Agent’s own interest in the Collateral as one of Lenders and that Agent shall have no duty or liability whatsoever to Lenders, except for its gross negligence or willful misconduct.

Section 11.11 Delivery of Information. Agent shall not be required to deliver to any Lender originals or copies of any documents, instruments, agreements, notices, communications or other information received by Agent from Borrowers, the Required Lenders, any Lender or any other Person under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Credit Document except (a) as specifically provided in this Agreement or any other Credit Document and (b) as requested from time to time in writing by any Lender with respect to documents, instruments, notices or other written communications from Borrowers received by and in the possession of Agent.

Section 11.12 Defaults. Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge of the occurrence of a Default or Event of Default (other than the non-payment of principal of or interest on the Loan to the extent the same is required to be paid to Agent for the account of Lenders) unless Agent has actual knowledge thereof or has received notice from a Lender or Borrowers specifying such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “Notice of Default.” In the event that Agent has such knowledge of or receives such a notice of the occurrence of a Default or Event of Default, Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to Lenders. Agent shall (subject to Article 9) take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as Agent shall deem advisable in the best interest of Lenders and shall, without limiting Agent’s rights or discretion under this Agreement, use reasonable efforts under the circumstances to consult with Lenders before taking any material enforcement action; and provided further that Agent shall not be required to take any such action which it determines to be contrary to law.

ARTICLE 12

INTER-BORROWER PROVISIONS

Section 12.1 Certain Borrower Acknowledgments and Agreements.

(a) Each Borrower acknowledges that it will enjoy significant benefits from the business conducted by the other Borrowers because of, inter alia, their combined ability to bargain with other Persons including without limitation their ability to receive this credit facility on favorable terms granted by this Agreement and other Credit Documents which would not have been available to an individual Borrower acting alone. Each Borrower has determined that it is in its best interest to procure this credit facility which each Borrower may utilize directly and which receive the credit support of the other Borrowers as contemplated by this Agreement and the other Credit Documents.

(b) Agents and Lenders have advised Borrowers that they are unwilling to enter into this Agreement and the other Credit Documents and make available this credit facility extended hereby to any Borrower unless each Borrower agrees, among other things, to be jointly and severally liable for the due and proper payment of the Obligations of each other Borrower under this Agreement and other Credit Documents. Each Borrower has determined that it is in its best interest and in pursuit of its purposes that it so induce Agents and Lenders to extend credit pursuant to this Agreement and the other Credit Documents executed in connection herewith (i) because of the desirability to each Borrower of this credit facility, the interest rates and the modes of borrowing available hereunder, (ii) because each Borrower may engage in transactions jointly with other Borrowers and (iii) because each Borrower may require, from time to time, access to funds under this Agreement for the purposes herein set forth.

(c) Borrower Agent (on behalf of each Borrower) shall maintain records specifying (a) all Obligations incurred by each Borrower, (b) the date of such incurrence, (c) the date and amount of any payments made in respect of such Obligations and (d) all inter-Borrower obligations pursuant to this Section 12. Borrower Agent shall make copies of such records available to Agents, upon request.

Section 12.2 Maximum Amount of Joint and Several Liability. To the extent that applicable law otherwise would render the full amount of the joint and several obligations of any Borrower hereunder and under the other Credit Documents invalid or unenforceable, such Borrower’s obligations hereunder and under the other Credit Documents shall be limited to the maximum amount which does not result in such invalidity or unenforceability, provided, however, that each Borrower’s obligations hereunder and under the other Credit Documents shall be presumptively valid and enforceable to their fullest extent in accordance with the terms hereof or thereof, as if this Section 12.2 were not a part of this Agreement.

Section 12.3 Authorization of Borrower Agent by Borrowers:

(a) Each Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes Borrower Agent to give notices, make requests, make payments, receive payments and notices, give receipts and execute agreements, make agreements or take any other action whatever on behalf of such Borrower under and with respect to any Credit Document and each Borrower shall be bound thereby. This authorization is coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable, and Agents may rely on any notice, request, information supplied by Borrower Agent, every document executed by Borrower Agent in respect of Borrowers or any thereof as if the same were supplied, made or taken by any or all Borrowers. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the failure of one or more Borrowers to join in the execution of any writing in connection herewith shall not, unless the context clearly requires, relieve any such Borrower from obligations in respect of such writing.

(b) Borrowers acknowledge that the credit facility provided hereunder is on terms more favorable than any Borrower acting alone would receive and that each Borrower benefits directly and indirectly from all Advances hereunder.
