Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement

This Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement is entered into as of November 20, 2006, by and among The ▇▇▇▇▇▇ & Sessions Co., an Ohio corporation (the “Borrower”), the Subsidiaries from time to time party to this Agreement, as Guarantors, the several financial institutions from time to time party to this Agreement, as Lenders, National City Bank and ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Chase Bank, N.A., as Co-Syndication Agents, LaSalle Bank National Association, as Documentation Agent, and Bank of Montreal, Chicago branch, as Administrative Agent, as provided herein. All capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the same meanings herein as such terms are defined in Section 5.1 hereof.

Preliminary Statement

▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ N.A. has given notice of its intention to resign as Agent and the parties have agreed to substitute Bank of Montreal, Chicago branch, for ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇.▇. as Administrative Agent and, in connection therewith, to replace ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇.▇. as a Lender with BMO Capital Markets Financing, Inc. In addition, the Borrower and certain other parties set forth above previously entered into a certain Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of June 29, 2005, as amended (the “Prior Credit Agreement”). The Borrower has requested that the aggregate commitments under the Prior Credit Agreement be extended and amended, and certain other amendments be made to the Prior Credit Agreement and, for the sake of clarity and convenience, that the Prior Credit Agreement be restated in its entirety as so amended, and the Lenders have agreed to such requests on the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

B. On the date hereof, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇.▇. will assign all of its loans and commitments (in such capacity, the “Departing Lender”) to the other Lenders hereunder, and certain other financial institutions will join the Credit Agreement as Lenders.

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

Section 1. The Credit Facilities.

Section 1.1. Revolving Credit Commitments. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, each Lender, by its acceptance hereof, severally agrees to make a loan or loans (individually a “Revolving Loan” and collectively the “Revolving Loans”) in U.S. Dollars to the Borrower from time to time on a revolving basis up to such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment, subject to any reductions thereof pursuant to the terms hereof, before the Revolving Credit Termination Date. The sum of the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Loans, Swing Loans, and L/C Obligations at any time outstanding shall not exceed the Revolving Credit Commitments in effect at such time. Each Borrowing of Revolving Loans shall be made ratably from the Lenders in proportion to their respective Revolver Percentages. As provided in Section 1.6(a) hereof, the Borrower may elect that each Borrowing of Revolving Loans be either Base Rate Loans or

Eurodollar Loans. Revolving Loans may be repaid and the principal amount thereof reborrowed before the Revolving Credit Termination Date, subject to the terms and conditions hereof.

Section 1.2. Letters of Credit. (a) General Terms. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, as part of the Revolving Credit, the relevant L/C Issuer shall issue commercial or standby letters of credit (each a “Letter of Credit”) for the account of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries in an aggregate undrawn face amount for all Letters of Credit issued by the L/C Issuers up to the amount of the L/C Sublimit, provided that the aggregate L/C Obligations at any time outstanding shall not exceed the difference between (i) the Revolving Credit Commitments in effect at such time and (ii) the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Loans and Swing Loans then outstanding. Each Letter of Credit shall be issued in U.S. Dollars and shall be issued by the relevant L/C Issuer, but each Lender shall be obligated to reimburse the relevant L/C Issuer for such Lender’s Revolver Percentage of the amount of each drawing thereunder and, accordingly, each Letter of Credit shall constitute usage of the Revolving Credit Commitment of each Lender pro rata in an amount equal to its Revolver Percentage of the L/C Obligations then outstanding. For purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, the letters of credit listed on Schedule 1.2 hereof issued by ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇.▇. or its predecessor in interest ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Trust and Saving Bank (herein, the “Existing Letters of Credit”) shall from and after the date of this Agreement be deemed Letters of Credit issued under and subject to the terms of this Agreement. The Borrower, the Lenders, and ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇.▇. agree that from and after the date of this Agreement, the Borrower’s obligations with respect to such Existing Letters of Credit, including all reimbursement obligations arising under or relating to the relevant application therefor (which applications shall each be deemed an Application as hereafter defined for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents), shall be deemed Obligations arising under this Agreement.

(b) Applications. At any time before the Revolving Credit Termination Date, the relevant L/C Issuer shall, at the request of the Borrower, issue one or more Letters of Credit in U.S. Dollars, in a form satisfactory to such L/C Issuer, with expiration dates no later than the earlier of (i) 12 months from the date of issuance (or be cancelable not later than 12 months from the date of issuance and each renewal) (or such later date agreed to by the relevant L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent) or, in the case of any Letter of Credit that is not a Bond Letter of Credit, (ii) the Revolving Credit Termination Date, in an aggregate face amount as set forth above, upon the receipt of an application duly executed by the Borrower and, in the case of any Letter of Credit being issued for the account of a Subsidiary, such Subsidiary for the relevant Letter of Credit in the form then customarily prescribed by the relevant L/C Issuer for the Letter of Credit requested (each an “Application,” it being agreed that the Reimbursement Agreements entered into with respect to the issuance of the Bond Letters of Credit shall each be deemed an Application for purposes hereof). On the Revolving Credit Termination Date, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to 105% of the aggregate undrawn amounts on all Letters of Credit then outstanding to be held as cash collateral in the Collateral Account. Notwithstanding anything contained in any Application to the contrary: (i) the Borrower shall pay fees in connection with each Letter of Credit as set forth in Section 2.1 hereof, (ii) except as otherwise provided in Section 1.10 hereof or in the relevant Reimbursement Agreement for a Bond Letter of Credit, before the occurrence of an Event of Default, the relevant L/C Issuer will not call for the funding by the Borrower of any amount under a Letter of Credit before being

- 2 -

presented with a drawing thereunder, and (iii) if a L/C Issuer is not timely reimbursed for the amount of any drawing under a Letter of Credit on the date such drawing is paid, the obligation of the Borrower to reimburse such L/C Issuer for the amount of such drawing shall bear interest (which the Borrower hereby promises to pay) from and after the date such drawing is paid at a rate per annum equal to the sum of 2% plus the Applicable Margin plus the Base Rate from time to time in effect (computed on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and the actual number of days elapsed). If a L/C Issuer issues any Letter of Credit with an expiration date that is automatically extended unless such L/C Issuer gives notice that the expiration date will not so extend beyond its then scheduled expiration date, the relevant L/C Issuer will give such notice of non-renewal before the time necessary to prevent such automatic extension if before such required notice date: (i) the expiration date of such Letter of Credit (other than the Bond Letters of Credit) if so extended would be after the Revolving Credit Termination Date, (ii) the Revolving Credit Commitments have been terminated, or (iii) a Default or an Event of Default exists and the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders have given the relevant L/C Issuer instructions not to so permit the extension of the expiration date of such Letter of Credit. Each L/C Issuer agrees to issue amendments to the Letter(s) of Credit increasing the amount, or extending the expiration date, thereof at the request of the Borrower subject to the conditions of Section 7 hereof and the other terms of this Section 1.2 (provided that each L/C Issuer shall be entitled to assume that the conditions precedent thereto have been satisfied unless notified to the contrary by the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders).

(c) The Reimbursement Obligations. Subject to Section 1.2(b) hereof, the obligation of the Borrower to reimburse the relevant L/C Issuer for all drawings under a Letter of Credit (a “Reimbursement Obligation”) shall be governed by the Application related to such Letter of Credit, except that reimbursement shall be made by no later than 12:00 Noon (Chicago time) on the date when each drawing is paid if the Borrower has been informed of such drawing by the relevant L/C Issuer on or before 11:30 a.m. (Chicago time) on the date when such drawing is paid or, if notice of such drawing is given to the Borrower after 11:30 a.m. (Chicago time) on the date when such drawing is paid, by the end of such day, in immediately available funds at the Administrative Agent’s principal office in Chicago, Illinois or such other office as the Administrative Agent may designate in writing to the Borrower. If the Borrower does not make any such reimbursement payment on the date due and the Participating Lenders fund their participations therein in the manner set forth in Section 1.2(d) below, then all payments thereafter received by the Administrative Agent in discharge of any of the relevant Reimbursement Obligations shall be distributed in accordance with Section 1.2(d) below.

(d) The Participating Interests. Each Lender, by its acceptance hereof, severally agrees to purchase from each L/C Issuer, and each L/C Issuer hereby agrees to sell to each such Lender (a “Participating Lender”), an undivided percentage participating interest (a “Participating Interest”), to the extent of its Revolver Percentage, in each Letter of Credit issued by, and each Reimbursement Obligation owed to, such L/C Issuer. Upon any failure by the Borrower to pay any Reimbursement Obligation at the time required on the date the related drawing is paid, as set forth in Section 1.2(c) above, or if a L/C Issuer is required at any time to return to the Borrower or to a trustee, receiver, liquidator, custodian, or other Person any portion of any payment of any Reimbursement Obligation, each Participating Lender shall, not later than the Business Day it receives a certificate in the form of Exhibit A hereto from the relevant L/C Issuer (with a copy to

- 3 -

the Administrative Agent) to such effect, if such certificate is received before 2:00 p.m. (Chicago time), or not later than 2:00 p.m. (Chicago time) the following Business Day, if such certificate is received after such time, pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such L/C Issuer an amount equal to such Participating Lender’s Revolver Percentage of such unpaid or recaptured Reimbursement Obligation together with interest on such amount accrued from the date the related payment was made by such L/C Issuer to the date of such payment by such Participating Lender at a rate per annum equal to: (i) from the date the related payment was made by the relevant L/C Issuer to the date 2 Business Days after payment by such Participating Lender is due hereunder, the Federal Funds Rate for each such day, and (ii) from the date 2 Business Days after the date such payment is due from such Participating Lender to the date such payment is made by such Participating Lender, the Base Rate in effect for each such day. Each such Participating Lender shall thereafter be entitled to receive its Revolver Percentage of each payment received in respect of the relevant Reimbursement Obligation and of interest paid thereon.

The several obligations of the Participating Lenders to the L/C Issuers under this Section 1.2 shall be absolute, irrevocable, and unconditional under any and all circumstances whatsoever and shall not be subject to any set-off, counterclaim, or defense to payment which any Participating Lender may have or have had against the Borrower, any L/C Issuer, the Administrative Agent, any Lender, or any other Person whatsoever. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, such obligations shall not be affected by any Default or Event of Default or by any reduction or termination of any Commitment of any Lender, and each payment by a Participating Lender under this Section 1.2 shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding, or reduction whatsoever.

(e) Indemnification. The Participating Lenders shall, to the extent of their respective Revolver Percentages, indemnify each L/C Issuer (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower) against any cost, expense (including reasonable counsel fees and disbursements), claim, demand, action, loss, or liability (except such as result from the L/C Issuer’s gross negligence or willful misconduct) that such L/C Issuer may suffer or incur in connection with any Letter of Credit issued by it. The obligations of the Participating Lenders under this Section 1.2(e) and all other parts of this Section 1.2 shall survive termination of this Agreement and of all Applications, Letters of Credit, and all drafts and other documents presented in connection with drawings thereunder.

(f) Special Provisions regarding Bond Letters of Credit. (i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Bond Letters of Credit have been issued under the Reimbursement Agreements and are subject to the terms and conditions thereof.

(ii) The Borrower and the Lenders acknowledge and agree that (a) each Bond Letter of Credit provides for automatic reductions and reinstatements as set forth in the provisions of such Bond Letter of Credit, and (b) each Bond Letter of Credit provides for the beneficiary thereof to reduce from time to time the amounts available to be drawn thereon. Each Lender acknowledges that, because the interest component of each Bond Letter of Credit may be reinstated at a time when the Borrower has not reimbursed the Lenders in full for an interest drawing under the relevant Bond Letter of Credit, the total L/C Obligations may exceed the L/C Sublimit and the

- 4 -

total Revolving Loans, Swing Loans, and L/C Obligations may exceed the Revolving Credit Commitments as a result thereof (which the Borrower acknowledges is a default under this Agreement) and each Lender agrees to pay the Administrative Agent its Revolver Percentage of any drawing under the relevant Bond Letter of Credit notwithstanding that any such payment may result in the aggregate principal amount owing such Lender hereunder exceeding the Revolving Credit Commitment of such Lender.

(iii) No L/C Issuer of a Bond Letter of Credit shall be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any default under any Reimbursement Agreement or any Bond Document unless it shall have received written notice stating that such default exists from the Borrower or any other party to a Bond Document. The L/C Issuer of a Bond Letter of Credit shall take such action with respect to such default under a Reimbursement Agreement or the relevant Bond Documents as shall be required pursuant to Section 9 hereof; provided that unless and until such L/C Issuer shall have received direction under Section 9, such L/C Issuer may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such default as it shall deem advisable and in the best interest of the Lenders, except any action resulting in the acceleration or redemption of any Bonds.

(iv) None of the L/C Issuer of any Bond Letter of Credit, together with its Affiliates, and the officers, directors, employees, agents, and attorneys-in-fact of such L/C Issuer and such Affiliates (collectively, the “L/C Issuer-Related Person”) shall (a) be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under or in connection with any Reimbursement Agreement or any Bond Document (except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct), or (b) be responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders for any recital, statement, representation or warranty made by the Borrower or any other Person contained in any Reimbursement Agreement or any Bond Document, or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by such L/C Issuer under or in connection with, any Reimbursement Agreement or any Bond Document, or for the validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of any Reimbursement Agreement or any Bond Document, or for any failure of the Borrower or any other party to any Bond Document to perform its obligations thereunder (other than for the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the relevant L/C Issuer). No such L/C Issuer-Related Person shall be under any obligation to any Lender to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, any Reimbursement Agreement or any Bond Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of the Borrower, any guarantor or any of their respective Affiliates.

(v) The Lenders shall indemnify upon demand the L/C Issuer-Related Persons (to the extent not reimbursed by or on behalf of the Borrower and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), ratably according to their Revolver Percentages from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses, and disbursements of any kind whatsoever which may at any time (including at any time following the termination of any Bond Letter of Credit) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against any such Person and which are in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement, any Reimbursement Agreement, any Bond Document or any document contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or

- 5 -

omitted by any such Person under or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided that no Lender shall be liable for the payment to the L/C Issuer-Related Persons of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting solely from such Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. The obligation of the Lenders in this Section shall survive the payment of all amounts owing by the Borrower hereunder.

(vi) The L/C Issuer of the relevant Bond Letter of Credit agrees to deliver to the Lenders promptly upon receipt thereof copies of all documents and reports delivered to such L/C issuer pursuant to any Reimbursement Agreement or any Bond Document (other than drawing requests made for regularly scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Bonds).

(vii) The L/C Issuer of the relevant Bond Letter of Credit may enter into any amendment or modification of, or may waive compliance with the terms of any Bond Document (other than the relevant indenture) without the consent of any other Lender; provided (a) that without the consent of the Required Lenders, such L/C issuer shall not execute any instrument agreeing to any amendment or modification of, or waiver of compliance with the relevant Reimbursement Agreement or any Bond Document, which would waive any “Event of Default” arising under such Reimbursement Agreement or Bond Document, and (b) without the consent of all of the Lenders, such L/C Issuer shall not execute any instrument agreeing to any amendment or modification of, or waiver of compliance with the relevant Reimbursement Agreement or any Bond Document, which would (A) reduce the principal of, or interest on, any Reimbursement Obligation arising thereunder, (B) postpone the due date for any payment of principal of, or interest on, any Reimbursement Obligation arising thereunder, (C) extend the stated expiration date of any Bond Letter of Credit beyond the Revolving Credit Termination Date, (D) increase in any material manner (in the reasonable opinion of such L/C Issuer) the obligations of the Lenders, or (E) release or otherwise adversely affect the interests of the Lenders in any collateral granted under the relevant Reimbursement Agreement or any Bond Document.

(g) Manner of Requesting a Letter of Credit. The Borrower shall provide at least five (5) Business Days’ advance written notice to the Administrative Agent of each request for the issuance of a Letter of Credit, such notice in each case to be accompanied by an Application for such Letter of Credit properly completed and executed by the Borrower and, in the case of an extension or an increase in the amount of a Letter of Credit, a written request therefor, in a form acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the relevant L/C Issuer, in each case, together with the fees called for by this Agreement (it being agreed that the relevant L/C Issuer shall be entitled to assume that the conditions precedent to any such issuance or amendment have been satisfied unless notified to the contrary by the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders). The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the relevant L/C Issuer of the Administrative Agent’s receipt of each such notice and the relevant L/C Issuer shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the Lenders of the issuance of the Letter of Credit so requested.

Section 1.3. Intentionally Omitted.

Section 1.4. Applicable Interest Rates. (a) Base Rate Loans. Each Base Rate Loan made or maintained by a Lender shall bear interest during each Interest Period it is outstanding

(computed on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and the actual days elapsed) on the unpaid principal amount thereof from the date such Loan is advanced, continued, or created by conversion from a Eurodollar Loan until maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) at a rate per annum equal to the sum of the Applicable Margin plus the Base Rate from time to time in effect, payable on the last day of its Interest Period and at maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise).

“Base Rate” means for any day the greater of: (i) the rate of interest announced or otherwise established by the Administrative Agent from time to time as its prime commercial rate, or its equivalent, for U.S. Dollar loans to borrowers located in the United States as in effect on such day, with any change in the Base Rate resulting from a change in said prime commercial rate to be effective as of the date of the relevant change in said prime commercial rate (it being acknowledged and agreed that such rate may not be the Administrative Agent’s best or lowest rate); and (ii) the sum of (x) the rate determined by the Administrative Agent to be the average (rounded upward, if necessary, to the next higher 1/100 of 1%) of the rates per annum quoted to the Administrative Agent at approximately 10:00 a.m. (Chicago time) (or as soon thereafter as is practicable) on such day (or, if such day is not a Business Day, on the immediately preceding Business Day) by two or more Federal funds brokers selected by the Administrative Agent for sale to the Administrative Agent at face value of Federal funds in the secondary market in an amount equal or comparable to the principal amount owed to the Administrative Agent for which such rate is being determined, plus (y) 1/2 of 1%.

(b) Eurodollar Loans. Each Eurodollar Loan made or maintained by a Lender shall bear interest during each Interest Period it is outstanding (computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and actual days elapsed) on the unpaid principal amount thereof from the date such Loan is advanced, continued, or created by conversion from a Base Rate Loan until maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) at a rate per annum equal to the sum of the Applicable Margin plus the Adjusted LIBOR applicable for such Interest Period, payable on the last day of the Interest Period and at maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise), and, if the applicable Interest Period is longer than three months, on each day occurring every three months after the commencement of such Interest Period.

“Adjusted LIBOR” means, for any Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans, a rate per annum determined in accordance with the following formula:


		Adjusted LIBOR		=		LIBOR 1 - Eurodollar Reserve Percentage

“Eurodollar Reserve Percentage” means, for any Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans, the daily average for the applicable Interest Period of the maximum rate, expressed as a decimal, at which reserves (including, without limitation, any supplemental, marginal, and emergency reserves) are imposed during such Interest Period by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (or any successor) on “eurocurrency liabilities”, as defined in such Board’s Regulation D (or in respect of any other category of liabilities that includes deposits by reference to which the interest rate on Eurodollar Loans is determined or any category of extensions of credit or other assets that include loans by non-United States offices of any Lender to United

- 7 -

States residents), subject to any amendments of such reserve requirement by such Board or its successor, taking into account any transitional adjustments thereto. For purposes of this definition, the Eurodollar Loans shall be deemed to be “eurocurrency liabilities” as defined in Regulation D without benefit or credit for any prorations, exemptions, or offsets under Regulation D.

“LIBOR” means, for an Interest Period for a Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans, (a) the LIBOR Index Rate for such Interest Period, if such rate is available, and (b) if the LIBOR Index Rate cannot be determined, the arithmetic average of the rates of interest per annum (rounded upwards, if necessary, to the nearest 1/100 of 1%) at which deposits in U.S. Dollars in immediately available funds are offered to the Administrative Agent at 11:00 a.m. (London, England time) 2 Business Days before the beginning of such Interest Period by 3 or more major banks in the interbank eurodollar market selected by the Administrative Agent for delivery on the first day of and for a period equal to such Interest Period and in an amount equal or comparable to the principal amount of the Eurodollar Loans scheduled to be made as part of such Borrowing.

“LIBOR Index Rate” means, for any Interest Period, the rate per annum (rounded upwards, if necessary, to the next higher one hundred-thousandth of a percentage point) for deposits in U.S. Dollars for a period equal to such Interest Period, which appears on the Telerate Page 3750 as of 11:00 a.m. (London, England time) on the day 2 Business Days before the commencement of such Interest Period.

“Telerate Page 3750” means the display designated as “Page 3750” on the Telerate Service (or such other page as may replace Page 3750 on that service or such other service as may be nominated by the British Bankers’ Association as the information vendor for the purpose of displaying British Bankers’ Association Interest Settlement Rates for U.S. Dollar deposits).

(d) Rate Determinations. The Administrative Agent shall determine each interest rate applicable to the Loans and the Reimbursement Obligations hereunder, and its determination thereof shall be conclusive and binding except in the case of manifest error.

Section 1.5. Minimum Borrowing Amounts. Each Borrowing of Base Rate Loans advanced under a Credit shall be in an amount not less than $1,000,000 or such greater amount which is an integral multiple of $500,000. Each Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans advanced, continued, or converted under a Credit shall be in an amount equal to $2,000,000 or such greater amount which is an integral multiple of $500,000. Without the Administration Agent’s consent, there shall not be more than 12 Borrowings of Eurodollar Loans outstanding under the Credits at any one time.

Section 1.6. Manner of Borrowing Loans and Designating Applicable Interest Rates. (a) Notice to the Administrative Agent. The Borrower shall give notice to the Administrative Agent by no later than 10:00 a.m. (Chicago time): (i) at least 3 Business Days before the date on

- 8 -

which the Borrower requests the Lenders to advance a Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans and (ii) on the date the Borrower requests the Lenders to advance a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans. The Loans included in each Borrowing shall bear interest initially at the type of rate specified in such notice of a new Borrowing. Thereafter, the Borrower may from time to time elect to change or continue the type of interest rate borne by each Borrowing or, subject to Section 1.5’s minimum amount requirement for each outstanding Borrowing, a portion thereof, as follows: (i) if such Borrowing is of Eurodollar Loans, on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, the Borrower may continue part or all of such Borrowing as Eurodollar Loans or convert part or all of such Borrowing into Base Rate Loans, or (ii) if such Borrowing is of Base Rate Loans, on any Business Day, the Borrower may request to convert all or part of such Borrowing into Eurodollar Loans for an Interest Period or Interest Periods specified by the Borrower. The Borrower shall give all such notices requesting the advance, continuation, or conversion of a Borrowing to the Administrative Agent by telephone or telecopy (which notice shall be irrevocable once given and, if by telephone, shall be promptly confirmed in writing), substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B (Notice of Borrowing) or Exhibit C (Notice of Continuation/Conversion), as applicable, or in such other form acceptable to the Administrative Agent. Notices of the continuation of a Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans for an additional Interest Period or of Base Rate Loans into Eurodollar Loans must be given by no later than 10:00 a.m. (Chicago time) at least 3 Business Days before the date of the requested continuation or conversion. All such notices concerning the advance, continuation, or conversion of a Borrowing shall specify the date of the requested advance, continuation, or conversion of a Borrowing (which shall be a Business Day), the amount of the requested Borrowing to be advanced, continued, or converted, the type of Loans to comprise such new, continued, or converted Borrowing and, if such Borrowing is to be comprised of Eurodollar Loans, the Interest Period applicable thereto. The Borrower agrees that the Administrative Agent may rely on any such telephonic or telecopy notice given by any person the Administrative Agent in good faith believes is an Authorized Representative without the necessity of independent investigation, and in the event any such notice by telephone conflicts with any written confirmation, such telephonic notice shall govern if the Administrative Agent has acted in reliance thereon.

(b) Notice to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall give prompt telephonic or telecopy notice to each Lender of any notice from the Borrower received pursuant to Section 1.6(a) above and, if such notice requests the Lenders to make Eurodollar Loans, the Administrative Agent shall give notice to the Borrower and each Lender by like means of the interest rate applicable thereto promptly after the Administrative Agent has made such determination.

(c) Borrower’s Failure to Notify; Automatic Continuations and Conversions. Any outstanding Borrowing of Base Rate Loans shall automatically be continued for an additional Interest Period on the last day of its then current Interest Period unless the Borrower has notified the Administrative Agent within the period required by Section 1.6(a) that the Borrower intends to convert such Borrowing, subject to Section 7.1 hereof, into a Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans or such Borrowing is prepaid in accordance with Section 1.10(a). If the Borrower fails to give notice pursuant to Section 1.6(a) above of the continuation or conversion of any outstanding principal amount of a Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans before the last day of its then current

- 9 -

Interest Period within the period required by Section 1.6(a) or, whether or not such notice has been given, one or more of the conditions set forth in Section 7.1 for the continuation or conversion of a Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans would not be satisfied, and such Borrowing is not prepaid in accordance with Section 1.10(a), such Borrowing shall automatically be converted into a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans. In the event the Borrower fails to give notice pursuant to Section 1.6(a) above of a Borrowing equal to the amount of a Reimbursement Obligation and has not notified the Administrative Agent by 11:00 a.m. (Chicago time) on the day such Reimbursement Obligation becomes due that it intends to repay such Reimbursement Obligation through funds not borrowed under this Agreement, the Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans under the Revolving Credit (or, at the option of the Administrative Agent, under the Swing Line) on such day in the amount of the Reimbursement Obligation then due, which Borrowing shall be applied to pay the Reimbursement Obligation then due.

(d) Disbursement of Loans. Not later than 12:00 Noon (Chicago time) on the date of any requested advance of a new Borrowing, subject to Section 7 hereof, each Lender shall make available its Loan comprising part of such Borrowing in funds immediately available at the principal office of the Administrative Agent in Chicago, Illinois. The Administrative Agent shall make the proceeds of each new Borrowing available to the Borrower at the Administrative Agent’s principal office in Chicago, Illinois (or by wire transfer of funds pursuant to the Borrower’s written instructions to the Administrative Agent).

(e) Administrative Agent Reliance on Lender Funding. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by a Lender prior to (or, in the case of a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans, by 12:00 Noon Chicago time on) the date on which such Lender is scheduled to make payment to the Administrative Agent of the proceeds of a Loan (which notice shall be effective upon receipt) that such Lender does not intend to make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such payment when due and the Administrative Agent may in reliance upon such assumption (but shall not be required to) make available to the Borrower the proceeds of the Loan to be made by such Lender and, if any Lender has not in fact made such payment to the Administrative Agent, such Lender shall, on demand, pay to the Administrative Agent the amount made available to the Borrower attributable to such Lender together with interest thereon in respect of each day during the period commencing on the date such amount was made available to the Borrower and ending on (but excluding) the date such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent at a rate per annum equal to (i) from the date the related advance was made by the Administrative Agent to the date 2 Business Days after payment by such Lender is due hereunder, the Federal Funds Rate for each such day, and (ii) from the date 2 Business Days after the date such payment is due from such Lender to the date such payment is made by such Lender, the Base Rate in effect for each such day. If such amount is not received from such Lender by the Administrative Agent immediately upon demand, the Borrower will, on demand, repay to the Administrative Agent the proceeds of the Loan attributable to such Lender with interest thereon at a rate per annum equal to the interest rate applicable to the relevant Loan, but without such payment being considered a payment or prepayment of a Loan under Section 1.13 hereof, so that the Borrower will have no liability under such Section with respect to such payment.

- 10 -

Section 1.7. Swing Loans. (a) Generally. Subject to all of the terms and conditions hereof, the Swing Line Lender agrees to make loans to the Borrower under the Swing Line (individually a “Swing Loan” and collectively the “Swing Loans”) which shall not in the aggregate at any time outstanding exceed the lesser of (i) $15,000,000 (as the same may be reduced pursuant hereto, the “Swing Line Sublimit”) or (ii) the difference between (x) the Revolving Credit Commitments in effect at such time then in effect and (y) the aggregate amount of all Revolving Loans and L/C Obligations outstanding at the time of computation. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, Swing Loans may be repaid and the principal amount thereof reborrowed before the Revolving Credit Termination Date; provided that each Swing Loan must be repaid on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto. Each Swing Loan shall be in a minimum amount of $250,000 or such greater amount which is an integral multiple of $100,000.

(b) Interest on Swing Loans. Each Swing Loan shall bear interest until maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) at a rate per annum equal to (i) the sum of the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin for Base Rate Loans under the Revolving Credit as from time to time in effect (computed on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, for the actual number of days elapsed) or (ii) if accepted by the Borrower pursuant to Section 1.7(c) below, the Swing Line Lender’s Quoted Rate (computed on the basis of a year of 360 days for the actual number of days elapsed). Interest on each Swing Loan shall be due and payable on the last day of each Interest Period applicable thereto.

(c) Requests for Swing Loans. The Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent prior notice (which may be written or oral) no later than 12:00 Noon (Chicago time) on the date upon which a Borrower requests that any Swing Loan be made, of the amount and date of such Swing Loan, and the Interest Period requested therefor. The Administrative Agent shall promptly advise the Swing Line Lender of any such notice received from the Borrower. After receiving such notice, the Swing Line Lender shall quote an interest rate to the Borrower at which the Swing Line Lender would be willing to make such Swing Loan available to the Borrower for the Interest Period so requested (the rate so quoted for a given Interest Period being herein referred to as “Swing Line Lender’s Quoted Rate”). The Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the interest rate quote is given for immediate and irrevocable acceptance, and if the Borrower does not so immediately accept the Swing Line Lender’s Quoted Rate for the full amount requested by the Borrower for such Swing Loan, the Swing Line Lender’s Quoted Rate shall be deemed immediately withdrawn and such Swing Loan shall bear interest as provided in Section 1.7(b)(i) above. Subject to all of the terms and conditions hereof, the proceeds of such Swing Loan shall be made available to the Borrower on the date so requested at the offices of the Administrative Agent in Chicago, Illinois (or by wire transfer of funds pursuant to the written instructions of the Borrower to the Administrative Agent and the Swing Line Lender). Anything contained in the foregoing to the contrary notwithstanding (i) the obligation of the Swing Line Lender to make Swing Loans shall be subject to all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement (provided that the Swing Line Lender shall be entitled to assume that the conditions precedent to the making of a Swing Loan have been satisfied unless notified to the contrary by the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders) and (ii) the Swing Line Lender shall not be obligated to make more than one Swing Loan during any one day.

- 11 -

(d) Refunding Loans. In its sole and absolute discretion, the Swing Line Lender may at any time, on behalf of the Borrower (which hereby irrevocably authorizes the Swing Line Lender to act on its behalf for such purpose) and with notice to the Borrower, request each Lender to make a Revolving Loan in the form of a Base Rate Loan in an amount equal to such Lender’s Revolver Percentage of the amount of the Swing Loans outstanding on the date such notice is given, provided that the Borrower shall not be liable to the Swing Line Lender under Section 1.13 hereof as a result of any such required refunding of Swing Loans that bear interest at the Swing Line Lender’s Quoted Rate on a date other than the last day of the Interest Period relating thereto. Unless an Event of Default described in Sections 9.1(i) or 9.1(j) exists with respect to the Borrower, regardless of the existence of any other Event of Default, each Lender shall make the proceeds of its requested Revolving Loan available to the Administrative Agent (for the account of the Swing Line Lender), in immediately available funds, at the Administrative Agent’s office in Chicago, Illinois, before 12:00 Noon (Chicago time) on the Business Day following the day such notice is given. The Administrative Agent shall promptly remit the proceeds of such Borrowing to the Swing Line Lender to repay the outstanding Swing Loans.

(e) Participations. If any Lender refuses or otherwise fails to make a Revolving Loan when requested by the Swing Line Lender pursuant to Section 1.7(d) above (because an Event of Default described in Section 9.1(i) or 9.1(j) exists with respect to the Borrower or otherwise), such Lender will, by the time and in the manner such Revolving Loan was to have been funded to the Swing Line Lender, purchase from the Swing Line Lender an undivided participating interest in the outstanding Swing Loans in an amount equal to its Revolver Percentage of the aggregate principal amount of Swing Loans that were to have been repaid with such Revolving Loans. Each Lender that so purchases a participation in a Swing Loan shall thereafter be entitled to receive its Revolver Percentage of each payment of principal received on the Swing Loan and of interest received thereon accruing from the date such Lender funded to the Swing Line Lender its participation in such Loan. The several obligations of the Lenders under this Section 1.7(e) shall be absolute, irrevocable and unconditional under any and all circumstances whatsoever and shall not be subject to any set-off, counterclaim or defense to payment which any Lender may have or have had against the Borrower, the Swing Line Lender, any other Lender or any other Person whatever. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, such obligations shall not be affected by any Default or Event of Default or by any reduction or termination of the Commitments of any Lender, and each payment made by a Lender under this Section 1.7(e) shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever.

Section 1.8. Interest Periods. As provided in Section 1.6(a) and 1.7(a) hereof, at the time of each request to advance, continue, or create by conversion a Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans or Swing Loans, the Borrower shall select an Interest Period applicable to such Loans from among the available options. The term “Interest Period” means the period commencing on the date a Borrowing of Loans is advanced, continued, or created by conversion and ending: (a) in the case of Base Rate Loans, on the last day of the calendar month in which such Borrowing is advanced, continued, or created by conversion (or on the last day of the following calendar month if such Loan is advanced, continued, or created by conversion on the last day of a calendar month), (b) in the case of a Eurodollar Loan, 1, 2, 3, or 6 months thereafter, and (c) in the case of a Swing Loan, on the date 1 to 7 days thereafter as mutually agreed by the Borrower and the Swing Line Lender; provided, however, that:

- 12 -

(a) no Interest Period with respect to any portion of the Revolving Loans or Swing Loans shall extend beyond the Revolving Credit Termination Date;

(b) whenever the last day of any Interest Period would otherwise be a day that is not a Business Day, the last day of such Interest Period shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, provided that, if such extension would cause the last day of an Interest Period for a Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans to occur in the following calendar month, the last day of such Interest Period shall be the immediately preceding Business Day; and

(c) for purposes of determining an Interest Period for a Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans, a month means a period starting on one day in a calendar month and ending on the numerically corresponding day in the next calendar month; provided, however, that if there is no numerically corresponding day in the month in which such an Interest Period is to end or if such an Interest Period begins on the last Business Day of a calendar month, then such Interest Period shall end on the last Business Day of the calendar month in which such Interest Period is to end.

Section 1.9. Maturity of Loans. (a) Revolving Loans. Each Revolving Loan shall mature and become due and payable by the Borrower on the Revolving Credit Termination Date.

(b) Swing Loans. Each Swing Loan shall mature and become due and payable by the Borrower on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto.

Section 1.10. Prepayments. (a) Optional. The Borrower shall have the privilege of prepaying Loans in whole or in part (but, if in part, then: (i) in an amount not less than $1,000,000, and (ii) in an amount such that the minimum amount required for a Borrowing pursuant to Section 1.5 and 1.7 hereof remains outstanding) any Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans at any time upon 3 (three) Business Days prior notice by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent or, in the case of a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans, upon notice delivered to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower no later than 10:00 a.m. (Chicago time) on the date of prepayment, such prepayment to be made by the payment of the principal amount to be prepaid and, in the case of any Eurodollar Loan or any Swing Loans bearing interest at the Swing Line Lender’s Quoted Rate, accrued interest thereon to the date of prepayment plus any amounts due under Section 1.13 hereof.

(b) Mandatory. (i) The Borrower shall, on each date the Revolving Credit Commitments are reduced pursuant to Section 1.14 hereof, prepay the Revolving Loans and Swing Loans and, if necessary, prefund the L/C Obligations by the amount, if any, necessary to reduce the sum of the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Loans, Swing Loans, and L/C Obligations then outstanding to the amount to which the Revolving Credit Commitments have been so reduced with each such prepayment first to be applied to the Swing Loans until payment in full thereof, then to the Revolving Loans until payment in full thereof, with any remaining balance to be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral security for the L/C Obligations.

- 13 -

(ii) Unless the Borrower otherwise directs, prepayments of Loans under this Section 1.10(b) shall be applied first to Borrowings of Base Rate Loans until payment in full thereof, then to Borrowings of Eurodollar Loans in the order in which their Interest Periods expire. Each prepayment of Loans under this Section 1.10(b) shall be made by the payment of the principal amount to be prepaid and, in the case of any Eurodollar Loans or Swing Loans, accrued interest thereon to the date of prepayment together with any amounts due the Lenders under Section 1.13 hereof. Each prefunding of L/C Obligations shall be made in accordance with Section 9.4 hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing in the event that the making of any prepayment required by this Section 1.10 of any Eurodollar Loans would result in an obligation on the part of the Borrower to make a breakage payment in respect thereof pursuant to Section 1.13 hereof, the Borrower may, upon notice to the Administrative Agent, pledge and deposit with the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, cash in the amount of the required prepayment pursuant to documentation satisfactory to Administrative Agent. The cash shall be maintained in the Collateral Account maintained by the Administrative Agent referred to in Section 9.4 hereof. Such cash shall be applied to the outstanding Eurodollar Loans in the order in which their Interest Periods expire. The Borrower hereby grants to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders a security interest in all such cash balances.

(c) The Administrative Agent will promptly advise each Lender of any notice of prepayment it receives from the Borrower. Any amount of Revolving Loans and Swing Loans paid or prepaid before the Revolving Credit Termination Date may, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, be borrowed, repaid, and borrowed again.

Section 1.11. Default Rate. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 1.4 hereof, while any Event of Default exists or after acceleration, the Borrower shall pay interest (after as well as before entry of judgment thereon to the extent permitted by law) on the principal amount of all Loans and Reimbursement Obligations, and letter of credit fees at a rate per annum equal to:

(a) for any Base Rate Loan or any Swing Loan bearing interest based on the Base Rate, the sum of 2% plus the Applicable Margin plus the Base Rate from time to time in effect (computed on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, for the actual number of days elapsed);

(b) for any Eurodollar Loan or any Swing Loan bearing interest at the Swing Line Lender’s Quoted Rate, the sum of 2% plus the rate of interest in effect thereon at the time of such default until the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto (computed on the basis of a year of 360 days for the actual number of days elapsed) and, thereafter, at a rate per annum equal to the sum of 2% plus the Applicable Margin for Base Rate Loans plus the Base Rate from time to time in effect (computed on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, for the actual number of days elapsed);

(c) for any Reimbursement Obligation, the sum of 2% plus the amounts due under Section 1.2 with respect to such Reimbursement Obligation; and

- 14 -

(d) for any Letter of Credit, the sum of 2% plus the letter of credit fee due under Section 2.1 with respect to such Letter of Credit;

provided, however, that in the absence of acceleration, any adjustments pursuant to this Section shall be made at the election of the Administrative Agent, acting at the request or with the consent of the Required Lenders, with written notice to the Borrower. While any Event of Default exists or after acceleration, interest and fees shall continue to be due and payable as otherwise provided in this Agreement and, in addition, such interest and fees shall also be paid on demand of the Administrative Agent acting at the request or with the consent of the Required Lenders.

Section 1.12. Evidence of Indebtedness. (a) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder.

(b) The Administrative Agent shall also maintain accounts in which it will record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the type thereof and the Interest Period with respect thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder from the Borrower and each Lender’s share thereof.

(c) The entries maintained in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraphs (a) and (b) above shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the Obligations therein recorded; provided, however, that the failure of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay the Obligations in accordance with their terms.

(d) Any Lender may request that its Loans be evidenced by a promissory note or notes in the forms of Exhibit D-1 (in the case of its Revolving Loans and referred to herein as a “Revolving Note”), or D-2 (in the case of its Swing Loans and referred to herein as a “Swing Note”), as applicable (the Revolving Notes and Swing Note being hereinafter referred to collectively as the “Notes” and individually as a “Note”). In such event, the Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a Note payable to the order of such Lender in the amount of the relevant Commitment or Swing Line Sublimit, as applicable. Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such Note or Notes and interest thereon shall at all times (including after any assignment pursuant to Section 13.12) be represented by one or more Notes payable to the order of the payee named therein or any assignee pursuant to Section 13.12, except to the extent that any such Lender or assignee subsequently returns any such Note for cancellation and requests that such Loans once again be evidenced as described in subsections (a) and (b) above.

Section 1.13. Funding Indemnity. If any Lender shall incur any loss, cost, or expense (including, without limitation, any loss of profit, and any loss, cost, or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or re-employment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender to fund or maintain any Eurodollar Loan or Swing Loan bearing interest at the Administrative

- 15 -

Agent’s Quoted Rate or the relending or reinvesting of such deposits or amounts paid or prepaid to such Lender) as a result of:

(a) any payment, prepayment or conversion of a Eurodollar Loan or Swing Loan on a date other than the last day of its Interest Period,

(b) any failure (because of a failure to meet the conditions of Section 7 or otherwise) by the Borrower to borrow or continue a Eurodollar Loan or Swing Loan, or to convert a Base Rate Loan into a Eurodollar Loan or Swing Loan, on the date specified in a notice given pursuant to Section 1.6(a) or 1.7(c),

(c) any failure by the Borrower to make any payment of principal on any Eurodollar Loan or Swing Loan when due (whether by acceleration or otherwise), or

(d) any acceleration of the maturity of a Eurodollar Loan or Swing Loan as a result of the occurrence of any Event of Default hereunder,

then, upon the demand of such Lender, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender within 15 days after demand by such Lender (which demand shall be accompanied by the certificate referred to below) such amount as will reimburse such Lender for such loss, cost, or expense. If any Lender makes such a claim for compensation, it shall provide to the Borrower, with a copy to the Administrative Agent, a certificate setting forth the amount of such loss, cost, or expense in reasonable detail and the amounts shown on such certificate shall be conclusive if reasonably determined.

Section 1.14. Commitment Terminations. (a) Optional Revolving Credit Terminations. The Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time, upon 5 Business Days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent (or such shorter period of time agreed to by the Administrative Agent), to terminate the Revolving Credit Commitments without premium or penalty and in whole or in part, any partial termination to be (i) in an amount not less than $5,000,000, and (ii) allocated ratably among the Lenders in proportion to their respective Revolver Percentages. Any termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments below the L/C Sublimit or the Swing Line Sublimit shall reduce the L/C Sublimit and the Swing Line Sublimit, as applicable, by a like amount. The Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice to each Lender of any such reduction or termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments.

(b) Mandatory Terminations. After the occurrence of a Change of Control, the Required Lenders may, by written notice to the Borrower at any time on or before the date occurring 90 days after the date the Borrower notifies the Lenders of such Change of Control, terminate the remaining Commitments and all other obligations of the Lenders hereunder on the date stated in such notice (which may be any date that is not less than 30 days following the date of such notice). On the date the Commitments are so terminated, all outstanding Obligations (including, without limitation, all principal of and accrued interest on the Loans) shall forthwith be due and payable without further demand, presentment, protest, or notice of any kind and the Borrower shall immediately pay to the Lenders the full amount then available for drawing under each Letter of Credit, such amount to be held in the Collateral Account (the Borrower agreeing

- 16 -

to immediately make such payment on the date the Commitments are so terminated and acknowledging and agreeing that the Lenders would not have an adequate remedy at law for the failure by the Borrower to honor any such demand and that the Lenders, and the Administrative Agent on their behalf, shall have the right to require the Borrower to specifically perform such undertaking whether or not any drawings or other demands for payment have been made under any of the Letters of Credit).

- 57 -

each or any Letter of Credit, and the Borrower agrees to immediately make such payment and acknowledges and agrees that the Lenders would not have an adequate remedy at law for failure by the Borrower to honor any such demand and that the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, shall have the right to require the Borrower to specifically perform such undertaking whether or not any drawings or other demands for payment have been made under any Letter of Credit. The Administrative Agent, after giving notice to the Borrower pursuant to Section 9.1(c) or this Section 9.2, shall also promptly send a copy of such notice to the L/C Issuers and the Lenders, but the failure to do so shall not impair or annul the effect of such notice.

(b) All amounts prepaid pursuant to subsection (a) above shall be held by the Administrative Agent in one or more separate collateral accounts (each such account, and the credit balances, properties, and any investments from time to time held therein, and any substitutions for such account, any certificate of deposit or other instrument evidencing any of the foregoing and all proceeds of and earnings on any of the foregoing being collectively called the “Collateral Account”) as security for, and for application by the relevant L/C Issuers (to the extent available) to, the reimbursement of any payment under any Letter of Credit then or thereafter made by such L/C Issuers, and to the payment of the unpaid balance of any Loans and all other Obligations. The Collateral Account shall be held in the name of and subject to the exclusive dominion and control of the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuers, and the Lenders.

- 58 -

in subsection (a) above required under Section 1.10(b) hereof, at the request of the Borrower the Administrative Agent shall release to the Borrower amounts held in the Collateral Account so long as at the time of the release and after giving effect thereto no Default or Event of Default exists, and (ii) if the Borrower shall have made payment of all obligations referred to in subsection (a) above required under Section 9.2 or 9.3 hereof, so long as no Letters of Credit, Commitments, Loans or other Obligations remain outstanding, at the request of the Borrower the Administrative Agent shall release to the Borrower any remaining amounts held in the Collateral Account.

Section 9.5. Additional Remedies in Bond Documents. In addition to the remedies otherwise described in this Section or in any Reimbursement Agreement or Bond Document, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder, the L/C Issuer of any Bond Letter of Credit, acting at the direction of the Required Lenders, may exercise one or more of the following rights and remedies: (a) give notice of the occurrence of an Event of Default to the trustee under the relevant indenture for any of the Bonds directing an acceleration of such Bonds, thereby causing the relevant Bond Letter of Credit to terminate the number of days thereafter specified in such Bond Letter of Credit, or (b) pursue any rights and remedies provided to such L/C Issuer under the relevant Bond Documents.

Section 9.6. Notice of Default. The Administrative Agent shall give notice to the Borrower under Section 9.1(c) hereof promptly upon being requested to do so by any Lender and shall thereupon notify all the Lenders thereof.

Section 10. Change in Circumstances.

Section 10.1. Change of Law. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement or any Note, if at any time any change in applicable law or regulation or in the interpretation thereof makes it unlawful for any Lender to make or continue to maintain any Eurodollar Loans or to perform its obligations as contemplated hereby, such Lender shall promptly give notice thereof to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) and such Lender’s obligations to make or maintain Eurodollar Loans under this Agreement shall be suspended until it is no longer unlawful for such Lender to make or maintain Eurodollar Loans. The Borrower shall prepay on demand the outstanding principal amount of any such affected Eurodollar Loans to the extent the continued maintenance thereof is unlawful, together with all interest accrued thereon and all other amounts then due and payable to such Lender under this Agreement; provided, however, subject to all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Borrower may then elect to borrow the principal amount of the affected Eurodollar Loans from such Lender by means of

- 59 -

Base Rate Loans from such Lender, which Base Rate Loans shall not be made ratably by the Lenders but only from such affected Lender.

Section 10.2. Unavailability of Deposits or Inability to Ascertain, or Inadequacy of, LIBOR. If on or prior to the first day of any Interest Period for any Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans:

(a) the Administrative Agent determines that deposits in U.S. Dollars (in the applicable amounts) are not being offered to it in the interbank eurodollar market for such Interest Period, or that by reason of circumstances affecting the interbank eurodollar market adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable LIBOR, or

(b) the Required Lenders advise the Administrative Agent that (i) LIBOR as determined by the Administrative Agent will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding their Eurodollar Loans for such Interest Period, or (ii) that the making or funding of Eurodollar Loans become impracticable,

then the Administrative Agent shall forthwith give notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders, whereupon until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, the obligations of the Lenders to make Eurodollar Loans shall be suspended.

Section 10.3. Increased Cost and Reduced Return. (a) If, on or after the date hereof, the adoption of any applicable law, rule, or regulation, or any change therein, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental authority, central bank, or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any L/C Issuer or any Lender (or its Lending Office) with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank, or comparable agency:

(i) shall subject any L/C Issuer or any Lender (or its Lending Office) to any tax, duty, or other charge with respect to its Eurodollar Loans, its Notes, its Letter(s) of Credit, or its participation in any thereof, any Reimbursement Obligations owed to it or its obligation to make Eurodollar Loans, issue a Letter of Credit, or to participate therein, or shall change the basis of taxation of payments to any L/C Issuer or any Lender (or its Lending Office) of the principal of or interest on its Eurodollar Loans, Letter(s) of Credit, or participations therein or any other amounts due under this Agreement or any other Loan Document in respect of its Eurodollar Loans, Letter(s) of Credit, any participation therein, any Reimbursement Obligations owed to it, or its obligation to make Eurodollar Loans, or issue a Letter of Credit, or acquire participations therein (except for changes in the rate of tax on the overall net income of such L/C Issuer or Lender or its Lending Office imposed by the jurisdiction in which such L/C Issuer’s or Lender’s principal executive office or Lending Office is located); or

(ii) shall impose, modify, or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, or similar requirement (including, without limitation, any such requirement imposed by the

- 60 -

Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, but excluding with respect to any Eurodollar Loans any such requirement included in an applicable Eurodollar Reserve Percentage) against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any L/C Issuer or any Lender (or its Lending Office) or shall impose on any L/C Issuer or any Lender (or its Lending Office) or on the interbank market any other condition affecting its Eurodollar Loans, its Notes, its Letter(s) of Credit, or its participation in any thereof, any Reimbursement Obligation owed to it, or its obligation to make Eurodollar Loans, or to issue a Letter of Credit, or to participate therein;

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such L/C Issuer or Lender (or its Lending Office) of making or maintaining any Eurodollar Loan, issuing or maintaining a Letter of Credit, or participating therein, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such L/C Issuer or Lender (or its Lending Office) under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document with respect thereto, by an amount deemed by such L/C Issuer or Lender to be material, then, within 20 days after demand by such L/C Issuer or Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), the Borrower shall be obligated to pay to such L/C Issuer or Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such L/C Issuer or Lender for such increased cost or reduction, provided that the Borrower shall not be required to indemnify such L/C Issuer or Lender for any such costs incurred more than 90 days before such notice is given.

(b) If, after the date hereof, any L/C Issuer, any Lender or the Administrative Agent shall have determined that the adoption of any applicable law, rule, or regulation regarding capital adequacy, or any change therein, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental authority, central bank, or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any L/C Issuer, any Lender (or its Lending Office) or any corporation controlling such L/C Issuer or Lender with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank, or comparable agency, has had the effect of reducing the rate of return on such L/C Issuer’s or such Lender’s or such corporation’s capital, as the case may be, as a consequence of its obligations hereunder to a level below that which such L/C Issuer, such Lender or such corporation could have achieved but for such adoption, change, or compliance (taking into consideration such L/C Issuer’s, such Lender’s or such corporation’s policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by such L/C Issuer or Lender to be material, then from time to time, within 20 days after demand by such L/C Issuer or Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), the Borrower shall pay to such L/C Issuer or Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such L/C Issuer or Lender for such reduction, provided that the Borrower shall not be required to indemnify such L/C Issuer or Lender for any such costs incurred more than 90 days before such notice is given.

(c) A certificate of a L/C Issuer or Lender claiming compensation under this Section 10.3 and setting forth the additional amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder shall be conclusive if reasonably determined absent manifest error. In determining such amount, such L/C Issuer or Lender may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods.

Section 10.4. Lending Offices. Each Lender may, at its option, elect to make its Loans hereunder at the branch, office, or affiliate specified on the appropriate signature page hereof

- 61 -

(each a “Lending Office”) for each type of Loan available hereunder or at such other of its branches, offices, or affiliates as it may from time to time elect and designate in a written notice to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent. To the extent reasonably possible, a Lender shall designate an alternative branch or funding office with respect to its Eurodollar Loans to reduce any liability of the Borrower to such Lender under Section 10.3 hereof or to avoid the unavailability of Eurodollar Loans under Section 10.2 hereof, so long as such designation is not otherwise disadvantageous to the Lender.

Section 10.5. Discretion of Lender as to Manner of Funding. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, each Lender shall be entitled to fund and maintain its funding of all or any part of its Loans in any manner it sees fit, it being understood, however, that for the purposes of this Agreement all determinations hereunder with respect to Eurodollar Loans shall be made as if each Lender had actually funded and maintained each Eurodollar Loan through the purchase of deposits in the interbank eurodollar market having a maturity corresponding to such Loan’s Interest Period and bearing an interest rate equal to LIBOR for such Interest Period.

Section 11. The Administrative Agent.

Section 11.1. Appointment and Authorization of Administrative Agent. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇.▇. is administrative agent for the Lenders under the Prior Credit Agreement. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇.▇.’s execution of this Agreement shall serve as its written notice that it resigns as administrative agent under the Prior Credit Agreement and the Loan Documents. Each L/C Issuer and each Lender hereby appoints Bank of Montreal, Chicago branch, as the successor Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents, effective immediately, and hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action as Administrative Agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under the Loan Documents as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The L/C Issuers and the Lenders expressly agree that the Administrative Agent is not acting as a fiduciary of the L/C Issuers or the Lenders in respect of the Loan Documents, the Borrower or otherwise, and nothing herein or in any of the other Loan Documents shall result in any duties or obligations on the Administrative Agent or any of the L/C Issuers or Lenders except as expressly set forth herein.

Section 11.2. Administrative Agent and its Affiliates. The Administrative Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as any other Lender and may exercise or refrain from exercising such rights and power as though it were not the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or any Affiliate of the Borrower as if it were not the Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents. The term “Lender” as used herein and in all other Loan Documents, unless the context otherwise clearly requires, includes the Administrative Agent in its individual capacity as a Lender (if applicable). References in Section 1 hereof to the Administrative Agent’s Loans, or to the amount owing to the Administrative Agent for which an interest rate is being determined, refer to the Administrative Agent in its individual capacity as a Lender (if applicable).

Section 11.3. Action by Administrative Agent. The obligations of the Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents are only those expressly set forth therein. Without limiting the

- 62 -

generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action hereunder with respect to any Default or Event of Default, except as expressly provided in Sections 9.2 and 9.5. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent shall take such action to enforce its Lien on the Collateral and to preserve and protect the Collateral as may be directed by the Required Lenders. Unless and until the Required Lenders give such direction, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take or refrain from taking such actions as it deems appropriate and in the best interest of all the Lenders. In no event, however, shall the Administrative Agent be required to take any action in violation of applicable law or of any provision of any Loan Document, and the Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully justified in failing or refusing to act hereunder or under any other Loan Document unless it first receives any further assurances of its indemnification from the Lenders that it may require, including prepayment of any related expenses and any other protection it requires against any and all costs, expense, and liability which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to assume that no Default or Event of Default exists unless notified in writing to the contrary by a L/C Issuer, a Lender or the Borrower. If the Administrative Agent receives from the Borrower a written notice of an Event of Default pursuant to Section 8.5 hereof, the Administrative Agent shall promptly give each of the L/C Issuers and the Lenders written notice thereof. In all cases in which the Loan Documents do not require the Administrative Agent to take specific action, the Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in using its discretion in failing to take or in taking any action thereunder. Any instructions of the Required Lenders, or of any other group of Lenders called for under the specific provisions of the Loan Documents, shall be binding upon all the Lenders and the holders of the Obligations.

Section 11.4. Consultation with Experts. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel, 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 11.5. Liability of Administrative Agent; Credit Decision. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents, or employees shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in connection with the Loan Documents: (a) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders, or (b) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents, or employees shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into, or verify: (i) any statement, warranty, or representation made in connection with this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any Credit Event; (ii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants or agreements of the Borrower or any Subsidiary contained herein or in any other Loan Document; (iii) the satisfaction of any condition specified in Section 7 hereof, except receipt of items required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent; or (iv) the validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability, perfection, value, worth, or collectibility hereof or of any other Loan Document or of any other documents or writing furnished in connection with any Loan Document or of any Collateral; and the Administrative Agent makes no representation of any kind or character with respect to any such matter mentioned in this sentence. The Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties under any of the Loan Documents by or through employees, agents, and attorneys-in-fact and shall not be answerable to the L/C Issuers, the Lenders, the

- 63 -

Borrower, or any other Person for the default or misconduct of any such agents or attorneys-in-fact selected with reasonable care. The Administrative Agent shall not incur any liability by acting in reliance upon any notice, consent, certificate, other document or statement (whether written or oral) believed by it to be genuine or to be sent by the proper party or parties. In particular and without limiting any of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall have no responsibility for confirming the accuracy of any compliance certificate or other document or instrument received by it under the Loan Documents. The Administrative Agent may treat the payee of any Obligation as the holder thereof until written notice of transfer shall have been filed with the Administrative Agent signed by such payee in form satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. Each L/C Issuer and each Lender acknowledges that it has independently and without reliance on the Administrative Agent or any other L/C Issuer or any other Lender, and based upon such information, investigations, and inquiries as it deems appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to extend credit to the Borrower in the manner set forth in the Loan Documents. It shall be the responsibility of each L/C Issuer and each Lender to keep itself informed as to the creditworthiness of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, and the Administrative Agent shall have no liability to any L/C Issuer or any Lender with respect thereto.

Section 11.6. Indemnity. The Lenders shall ratably, in accordance with their respective Percentages, indemnify and hold the Administrative Agent, and its directors, officers, employees, agents, and representatives harmless from and against any liabilities, losses, costs, or expenses suffered or incurred by it under any Loan Document or in connection with the transactions contemplated thereby, regardless of when asserted or arising, except to the extent they are promptly reimbursed for the same by the Borrower and except to the extent that any event giving rise to a claim was caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the party seeking to be indemnified. The obligations of the Lenders under this Section shall survive termination of this Agreement. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to offset amounts received for the account of a Lender under this Agreement against unpaid amounts due from such Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder (whether as fundings of participations, indemnities or otherwise), but shall not be entitled to offset against amounts owed to the Administrative Agent by any Lender arising outside of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

Section 11.7. Resignation of Administrative Agent and Successor Agent. The Administrative Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the L/C Issuers, the Lenders and the Borrower. Upon any such resignation of the Administrative Agent, the Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent to serve in the same capacity as such resigning Administrative Agent, provided that, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, such successor Administrative Agent is reasonably acceptable to the Borrower. If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders, and shall have accepted such appointment, within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent’s giving of notice of resignation then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which shall be any Lender hereunder or any commercial bank organized under the laws of the United States of America or of any State thereof and having a combined capital and surplus of at least $200,000,000. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as the Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents, and the

- 64 -

retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations thereunder. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Section 11 and all protective provisions of the other Loan Documents shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent, but no successor Administrative Agent shall in any event be liable or responsible for any actions of its predecessor. If any Administrative Agent resigns and no successor is appointed, the rights and obligations of such Administrative Agent shall be automatically assumed by the Required Lenders and (i) the Borrower shall be directed to make all payments due each L/C issuer and each Lender hereunder directly to such L/C Issuer or Lender, and (ii) the Administrative Agent’s rights in the Collateral Documents shall be assigned without representation, recourse, or warranty to the Lenders and L/C Issuers as their interests may appear.

Section 11.8. L/C Issuers and Swing Line Lender. Each L/C Issuer shall act on behalf of the Lenders with respect to any Letters of Credit issued by it and the documents associated therewith, and the Swing Line Lender shall act on behalf of the Lenders with respect to the Swing Loans made hereunder. The L/C Issuers and the Swing Line Lender shall each have all of the benefits and immunities (i) provided to the Administrative Agent in this Section 11 with respect to any acts taken or omissions suffered by such L/C Issuer or the Swing Line Lender in connection with Letters of Credit issued by it or proposed to be issued by it and the Applications pertaining to such Letters of Credit or Swing Loans made hereunder, as applicable, as fully as if the term “Administrative Agent”, as used in this Section 11, included each L/C Issuer and the Swing Line Lender with respect to such acts or omissions, and (ii) as additionally provided in this Agreement with respect to such L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender, as applicable.

Section 11.9. Hedging Liability and Funds Transfer, Deposit Account, and Credit/Purchasing Card Liability Arrangements. By virtue of a Lender’s execution of this Agreement or an assignment agreement pursuant to Section 13.12 hereof, as the case may be, any Affiliate of such Lender with whom the Borrower or any Guarantor has entered into an agreement creating Hedging Liability or Funds Transfer, Deposit Account, and Credit/Purchasing Card Liability shall be deemed a Lender party hereto for purposes of any reference in a Loan Document to the parties for whom the Administrative Agent is acting, it being understood and agreed that the rights and benefits of such Affiliate under the Loan Documents consist exclusively of such Affiliate’s right to share in payments and collections out of the Collateral and the Guaranties as more fully set forth in Section 3 hereof. In connection with any such distribution of payments and collections, or any request for the release of the Administrative Agent’s Liens in connection with the termination of the Commitments and the payment in full of the Obligations, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to assume no amounts are due to any Lender or its Affiliate with respect to Hedging Liability or Funds Transfer, Deposit Account, and Credit/Purchasing Card Liability unless such Lender has notified the Administrative Agent in writing of the amount of any such liability owed to it or its Affiliate prior to such distribution or payment or release of Liens.

Section 11.10. Designation of Additional Agents. The Administrative Agent shall have the continuing right, for purposes hereof, at any time and from time to time to designate one or more of the Lenders (and/or its or their Affiliates) as “syndication agents,” “documentation agents,”

- 65 -

“arrangers,” or other designations for purposes hereto, but such designation shall have no substantive effect, and such Lenders and their Affiliates shall have no additional powers, duties, or responsibilities as a result thereof.

Section 11.11. Authorization to Release or Subordinate or Limit Liens. The Administrative Agent is hereby irrevocably authorized by each of the Lenders to (a) release any Lien covering any Collateral that is sold, transferred, or otherwise disposed of in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the relevant Collateral Documents (including a sale, transfer, or disposition permitted by the terms of Section 8.10 hereof or which has otherwise been consented to in accordance with Section 13.14 hereof), (b) release or subordinate any Lien on Collateral consisting of goods financed with purchase money indebtedness or under a Capital Lease to the extent such purchase money indebtedness or Capitalized Lease Obligation, and the Lien securing the same, are permitted by Sections 8.7 and 8.8 hereof, (c) reduce or limit the amount of the indebtedness secured by any particular item of Collateral to an amount not less than the estimated value thereof to the extent necessary to reduce mortgage registry, filing and similar tax, and (d) release Liens on the Collateral following termination or expiration of the Commitments and payment in full in cash of the Obligations hereunder and, if then due, Hedging Liability and Funds Transfer, Deposit Account, and Credit/Purchasing Card Liability.

Section 11.12. Authorization to Enter into, and Enforcement of, the Collateral Documents. The Administrative Agent is hereby irrevocably authorized by each of the L/C Issuers and Lenders to execute and deliver the Collateral Documents on behalf of each of the L/C Issuers and Lenders and their Affiliates and to take such action and exercise such powers under the Collateral Documents as the Administrative Agent considers appropriate, provided the Administrative Agent shall not amend the Collateral Documents unless such amendment is agreed to in writing by the Required Lenders. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that it will be bound by the terms and conditions of the Collateral Documents upon the execution and delivery thereof by the Administrative Agent. Except as otherwise specifically provided for herein, no L/C Issuer or Lender (or its Affiliates) other than the Administrative Agent shall have the right to institute any suit, action or proceeding in equity or at law for the foreclosure or other realization upon any Collateral or for the execution of any trust or power in respect of the Collateral or for the appointment of a receiver or for the enforcement of any other remedy under the Collateral Documents; it being understood and intended that no one or more of the L/C Issuers or the Lenders (or their Affiliates) shall have any right in any manner whatsoever to affect, disturb or prejudice the Lien of the Administrative Agent (or any security trustee therefor) under the Collateral Documents by its or their action or to enforce any right thereunder, and that all proceedings at law or in equity shall be instituted, had, and maintained by the Administrative Agent (or its security trustee) in the manner provided for in the relevant Collateral Documents for the benefit of the L/C Issuers, the Lenders, and their Affiliates.

Section 12. The Guarantees.

Section 12.1. The Guarantees. To induce the L/C Issuers and the Lenders to provide the credits described herein and in consideration of benefits expected to accrue to the Borrower by reason of the Commitments and for other good and valuable consideration, receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, each Subsidiary party hereto (including any Subsidiary formed or

- 66 -

acquired after the Effective Date executing an Additional Guarantor Supplement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit F or such other form acceptable to the Administrative Agent) hereby unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees jointly and severally to the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuers, the Lenders, and their Affiliates, the due and punctual payment of all present and future Obligations, Hedging Liability, and Funds Transfer, Deposit Account, and Credit/Purchasing Card Liability, including, but not limited to, the due and punctual payment of principal of and interest on the Loans, the Reimbursement Obligations, and the due and punctual payment of all other Obligations now or hereafter owed by the Borrower under the Loan Documents and the due and punctual payment of all Hedging Liability and Funds Transfer, Deposit Account, and Credit/Purchasing Card Liability, in each case as and when the same shall become due and payable, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration, or otherwise, according to the terms hereof and thereof (including interest which, but for the filing of a petition in bankruptcy, would otherwise accrue on any such indebtedness, obligation, or liability). In case of failure by the Borrower or other obligor punctually to pay any Obligations, Hedging Liability, or Funds Transfer, Deposit Account, and Credit/Purchasing Card Liability guaranteed hereby, each Guarantor hereby unconditionally agrees to make such payment or to cause such payment to be made punctually as and when the same shall become due and payable, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration, or otherwise, and as if such payment were made by the Borrower or such obligor.

Section 12.2. Guarantee Unconditional. The obligations of each Guarantor under this Section 12 shall be unconditional and absolute and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, shall not be released, discharged, or otherwise affected by:

(a) any extension, renewal, settlement, compromise, waiver, or release in respect of any obligation of the Borrower or other obligor or of any other guarantor under this Agreement or any other Loan Document or by operation of law or otherwise;

(b) any modification or amendment of or supplement to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any agreement relating to Hedging Liability or Funds Transfer, Deposit Account, and Credit/Purchasing Card Liability;

(c) any change in the corporate existence, structure, or ownership of, or any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization, or other similar proceeding affecting, the Borrower or other obligor, any other guarantor, or any of their respective assets, or any resulting release or discharge of any obligation of the Borrower or other obligor or of any other guarantor contained in any Loan Document;

(d) the existence of any claim, set-off, or other rights which the Borrower or other obligor or any other guarantor may have at any time against the Administrative Agent, any L/C Issuer, any Lender, or any other Person, whether or not arising in connection herewith;

(e) any failure to assert, or any assertion of, any claim or demand or any exercise of, or failure to exercise, any rights or remedies against the Borrower or other obligor, any other guarantor, or any other Person or Property;

- 67 -

(f) any application of any sums by whomsoever paid or howsoever realized to any obligation of the Borrower or other obligor, regardless of what obligations of the Borrower or other obligor remain unpaid;

(g) any invalidity or unenforceability relating to or against the Borrower or other obligor or any other guarantor for any reason of this Agreement or of any other Loan Document or any agreement relating to Hedging Liability or Funds Transfer, Deposit Account, and Credit/Purchasing Card Liability or any provision of applicable law or regulation purporting to prohibit the payment by the Borrower or other obligor or any other guarantor of the principal of or interest on any Loan or any Reimbursement Obligation or any other amount payable under the Loan Documents or any agreement relating to Hedging Liability or Funds Transfer, Deposit Account, and Credit/Purchasing Card Liability; or

(h) any other act or omission to act or delay of any kind by the Administrative Agent, any L/C Issuer, any Lender, or any other Person or any other circumstance whatsoever that might, but for the provisions of this paragraph, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of the obligations of any Guarantor under this Section 12.

Section 12.3. Discharge Only upon Payment in Full; Reinstatement in Certain Circumstances. Each Guarantor’s obligations under this Section 12 shall remain in full force and effect until the Commitments are terminated, all Letters of Credit have expired, and the principal of and interest on the Loans and all other amounts payable by the Borrower and the Guarantors under this Agreement and all other Loan Documents and, if then outstanding and unpaid, all Hedging Liability, and Funds Transfer, Deposit Account, and Credit/Purchasing Card Liability shall have been paid in full. If at any time any payment of the principal of or interest on any Loan or any Reimbursement Obligation or any other amount payable by the Borrower or other obligor or any Guarantor under the Loan Documents or any agreement relating to Hedging Liability or Funds Transfer, Deposit Account, and Credit/Purchasing Card Liability is rescinded or must be otherwise restored or returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, or reorganization of the Borrower or other obligor or of any guarantor, or otherwise, each Guarantor’s obligations under this Section 12 with respect to such payment shall be reinstated at such time as though such payment had become due but had not been made at such time.

Section 12.4. Subrogation. Each Guarantor agrees it will not exercise any rights which it may acquire by way of subrogation by any payment made hereunder, or otherwise, until all the Obligations, Hedging Liability, and Funds Transfer, Deposit Account, and Credit/Purchasing Card Liability shall have been paid in full subsequent to the termination of all the Commitments and expiration of all Letters of Credit. If any amount shall be paid to a Guarantor on account of such subrogation rights at any time prior to the later of (x) the payment in full of the Obligations, Hedging Liability, and Funds Transfer, Deposit Account, and Credit/Purchasing Card Liability and all other amounts payable by the Borrower hereunder and the other Loan Documents and (y) the termination of the Commitments and expiration of all Letters of Credit, such amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuers, and the Lenders (and their Affiliates) and shall forthwith be paid to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the L/C Issuers, the Lenders (and their Affiliates) or be credited and applied upon the Obligations,

- 68 -

Hedging Liability, and Funds Transfer, Deposit Account, and Credit/Purchasing Card Liability, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

Section 12.5. Waivers. Each Guarantor irrevocably waives acceptance hereof, presentment, demand, protest, and any notice not provided for herein, as well as any requirement that at any time any action be taken by the Administrative Agent, any L/C Issuer, any Lender, or any other Person against the Borrower or other obligor, another guarantor, or any other Person.

Section 12.6. Limit on Recovery. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, the right of recovery against each Guarantor under this Section 12 shall not exceed $1.00 less than the lowest amount which would render such Guarantor’s obligations under this Section 12 void or voidable under applicable law, including, without limitation, fraudulent conveyance law.

Section 12.7. Stay of Acceleration. If acceleration of the time for payment of any amount payable by the Borrower or other obligor under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or under any agreement relating to Hedging Liability or Funds Transfer, Deposit Account, and Credit/Purchasing Card Liability, is stayed upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Borrower or such obligor, all such amounts otherwise subject to acceleration under the terms of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or under any agreement relating to Hedging Liability or Funds Transfer, Deposit Account, and Credit/Purchasing Card Liability, shall nonetheless be payable by the Guarantors hereunder forthwith on demand by the Administrative Agent made at the request of the Required Lenders.

Section 12.8. Benefit to Guarantors. The Borrower and the Guarantors are engaged in related businesses and integrated to such an extent that the financial strength and flexibility of the Borrower has a direct impact on the success of each Guarantor. Each Guarantor will derive substantial direct and indirect benefit from the extensions of credit hereunder.

Section 12.9. Guarantor Covenants. Each Guarantor shall take such action as the Borrower is required by this Agreement to cause such Guarantor to take, and shall refrain from taking such action as the Borrower is required by this Agreement to prohibit such Guarantor from taking.

Section 13. Miscellaneous.

Section 13.1. Withholding Taxes. (a) Payments Free of Withholding. Except as otherwise required by law and subject to Section 13.1(b) hereof, each payment by the Borrower or any Guarantor under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall be made without withholding for or on account of any present or future taxes (other than overall net income taxes on the recipient) imposed by or within the jurisdiction in which the Borrower or such Guarantor is domiciled, any jurisdiction from which the Borrower or such Guarantor makes any payment, or (in each case) any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein. If any such withholding is so required, the Borrower or the relevant Guarantor shall make the withholding, pay the amount withheld to the appropriate governmental authority before penalties attach thereto or interest accrues thereon and forthwith pay such additional amount as may be necessary to ensure that the net amount actually received by each L/C Issuer, each Lender, and the

- 69 -

Administrative Agent free and clear of such taxes (including such taxes on such additional amount) is equal to the amount which that L/C Issuer, that Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) would have received had such withholding not been made. If the Administrative Agent, any L/C Issuer, or any Lender pays any amount in respect of any such taxes, penalties, or interest, the Borrower or the relevant Guarantor shall reimburse the Administrative Agent, such L/C Issuer, or such Lender for that payment within 20 days after demand therefor in the currency in which such payment was made. If the Borrower or a Guarantor pays any such taxes, penalties, or interest, it shall deliver official tax receipts evidencing that payment or certified copies thereof to the L/C Issuer, the Lender or the Administrative Agent on whose account such withholding was made (with a copy to the Administrative Agent if not the recipient of the original) on or before the thirtieth day after payment.

(b) U.S. Withholding Tax Exemptions. Each L/C Issuer or Lender that is not a United States person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) shall submit to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or before the date the initial Credit Event is made hereunder or, if later, the date such financial institution becomes a L/C Issuer or Lender hereunder, two duly completed and signed copies of (i) either Form W-8 BEN (relating to such Lender and entitling it to a complete exemption from withholding under the Code on all amounts to be received by such L/C Issuer or Lender, including fees, pursuant to the Loan Documents and the Obligations) or Form W-8 ECI (relating to all amounts to be received by such L/C Issuer or Lender, including fees, pursuant to the Loan Documents and the Obligations) of the United States Internal Revenue Service, or (ii) solely if such L/C Issuer or Lender is claiming exemption from United States withholding tax under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code with respect to payments of “portfolio interest”, a Form W-8 BEN, or any successor form prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service, and a certificate representing that such L/C Issuer or Lender is not a bank for purposes of Section 881(c) of the Code, is not a 10-percent shareholder (within the meaning of Section 871(h)(3)(B) of the Code) of the Borrower, and is not a controlled foreign corporation related to the Borrower (within the meaning of Section 864(d)(4) of the Code). Thereafter and from time to time, each L/C Issuer and Lender shall submit to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent such additional duly completed and signed copies of one or the other of such Forms (or such successor forms as shall be adopted from time to time by the relevant United States taxing authorities) and such other certificates as may be (i) requested by the Borrower in a written notice, directly or through the Administrative Agent, to such L/C Issuer or Lender, and (ii) required under then-current United States law or regulations to avoid or reduce United States withholding taxes on payments in respect of all amounts to be received by such L/C Issuer or Lender, including fees, pursuant to the Loan Documents or the Obligations. Upon the request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, each L/C Issuer or Lender that is a United States person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) shall submit to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent a certificate to the effect that it is such a United States person.

(c) Inability of Lender to Submit Forms. If any L/C Issuer or Lender determines, as a result of any change in applicable law, regulation, or treaty, or in any official application or interpretation thereof, that it is unable to submit to the Borrower or the Administrative Agent any form or certificate that such L/C Issuer or Lender is obligated to submit pursuant to

- 70 -

subsection (b) of this Section 13.1 or that such L/C Issuer or Lender is required to withdraw or cancel any such form or certificate previously submitted or any such form or certificate otherwise becomes ineffective or inaccurate, such L/C Issuer or Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower and Administrative Agent of such fact and the L/C Issuer or Lender shall to that extent not be obligated to provide any such form or certificate and will be entitled to withdraw or cancel any affected form or certificate, as applicable.

Section 13.2. No Waiver, Cumulative Remedies. No delay or failure on the part of the Administrative Agent, any L/C Issuer or any Lender or on the part of the holder or holders of any of the Obligations in the exercise of any power or right under any Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof or as an acquiescence in any default, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any power or right preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other power or right. The rights and remedies hereunder of the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuers, the Lenders, and of the holder or holders of any of the Obligations are cumulative to, and not exclusive of, any rights or remedies which any of them would otherwise have.

Section 13.3. Non-Business Days. Subject to Section 1.8, if any payment hereunder becomes due and payable on a day which is not a Business Day, the due date of such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day on which date such payment shall be due and payable. In the case of any payment of principal falling due on a day which is not a Business Day, interest on such principal amount shall continue to accrue during such extension at the rate per annum then in effect, which accrued amount shall be due and payable on the next scheduled date for the payment of interest.

Section 13.4. Documentary Taxes. The Borrower agrees to pay on demand any documentary, stamp, or similar taxes payable in respect of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, including interest and penalties, in the event any such taxes are assessed, irrespective of when such assessment is made and whether or not any credit is then in use or available hereunder.

Section 13.5. Survival of Representations. All representations and warranties made herein or in any other Loan Document or in certificates given pursuant hereto or thereto shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and shall continue in full force and effect with respect to the date as of which they were made as long as any credit is in use or available hereunder.

Section 13.6. Survival of Indemnities. All indemnities and other provisions relative to reimbursement to the L/C Issuers and the Lenders of amounts sufficient to protect the yield of the L/C Issuers and Lenders with respect to the Loans and Letters of Credit, including, but not limited to, Sections 1.13, 10.3, and 13.16 hereof, shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the payment of the Obligations.

Section 13.7. Sharing of Set-Off. Each Lender agrees with each other Lender a party hereto that if such Lender shall receive and retain any payment, whether by set-off or application of deposit balances or otherwise, on any of the Loans or Reimbursement Obligations in excess of its ratable share of payments on all such Obligations then outstanding to the Lenders, then such

- 71 -

Lender shall purchase for cash at face value, but without recourse, ratably from each of the other Lenders such amount of the Loans or Reimbursement Obligations, or participations therein, held by each such other Lenders (or interest therein) as shall be necessary to cause such Lender to share such excess payment ratably with all the other Lenders; provided, however, that if any such purchase is made by any Lender, and if such excess payment or part thereof is thereafter recovered from such purchasing Lender, the related purchases from the other Lenders shall be rescinded ratably and the purchase price restored as to the portion of such excess payment so recovered, but without interest. For purposes of this Section, amounts owed to or recovered by the Administrative Agent in connection with Reimbursement Obligations in which Lenders have been required to fund their participation shall be treated as amounts owed to or recovered by the Administrative Agent as a Lender hereunder.

Section 13.8. Notices. Except as otherwise specified herein, all notices hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall be in writing (including, without limitation, notice by telecopy) and shall be given to the relevant party at its address or telecopier number set forth below, or such other address or telecopier number as such party may hereafter specify by notice to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower given by courier, by United States certified or registered mail, by telecopy or by other telecommunication device capable of creating a written record of such notice and its receipt. Notices under the Loan Documents to any Lender shall be addressed to its address or telecopier number set forth on its Administrative Questionnaire; and notices under the Loans Documents to the Borrower, any Guarantor, any L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent shall be addressed to their respective addresses or telecopier numbers set forth below:

Section 13.10. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon the Borrower and the Guarantors and their successors and assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of the Administrative Agent, each L/C Issuer, and each of the Lenders and the benefit of their respective successors and assigns, including any subsequent holder of any of the Obligations. The Borrower may not assign any of its rights or obligations under any Loan Document without the written consent of all of the Lenders and, with respect to any Letter of Credit or the Application therefore, the relevant L/C Issuer.

Any agreement pursuant to which such participation is granted shall provide that the granting Lender shall retain the sole right and responsibility to enforce the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including, without limitation, the right to approve any amendment, modification, or waiver of any provision of the Loan Documents, except that such agreement may provide that such Lender will not agree to any modification, amendment, or waiver of the Loan Documents with respect to any items in

Sections 13.14(i) and 13.14(ii). Any party to which such a participation has been granted shall have the benefits of Section 1.13, Section 10.3, and Section 13.16 hereof, provided that the Borrower shall not be obligated to pay any amount in excess of the amount it would have been liable for had such participation not been made. The Borrower authorizes each Lender to disclose to any participant or prospective participant under this Section any financial or other information pertaining to the Borrower or any Subsidiary, provided such participant or prospective participant agrees to abide by Section 13.13 hereof.

Section 13.12. Assignments. (a) Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it); provided that any such assignment shall be subject to the following conditions:

(i) Minimum Amounts. (A) In the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment and the Loans and participation interest in L/C Obligations at the time owing to it or in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, no minimum amount need be assigned; and (B) in any case not described in subsection (a)(i)(A) of this Section, the aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for this purpose includes Loans and participation interest in L/C Obligations outstanding thereunder) or, if the applicable Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Loans and participation interest in L/C Obligations of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent or, if “Effective Date” is specified in the Assignment and Acceptance, as of the Effective Date) shall not be less than $5,000,000, in the case of any assignment with respect to the Revolving Credit, unless each of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed);

(ii) Proportionate Amounts. Each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Loan or the Commitment assigned, except that this clause (ii) shall not prohibit any Lender from assigning all or a portion of its rights and obligations among separate Credits on a non-pro rata basis.

(iii) Required Consents. No consent shall be required for any assignment except to the extent required by Section 13.12(a)(i)(B) and, in addition:

(a) the consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required unless (x) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment or (y) such assignment is to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund;

(b) the consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for assignments in respect of the Revolving Credit if such assignment is to a Person that is not a Lender with a

- 74 -

Commitment in respect of such facility, an Affiliate of such Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to such Lender;

(c) the consent of the L/C Issuer (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for any assignment that increases the obligation of the assignee to participate in exposure under one or more Letters of Credit (whether or not then outstanding);and

(d) the consent of the Swing Line Lender (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for any assignment that increases the obligation of the assignee to participate in exposure with respect to Swing Loans (whether or not then outstanding).

(iv) Assignment and Acceptance. The parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500, and the assignee, if it is not a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire.

(v) No Assignment to Borrower or Parent. No such assignment shall be made to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates or Subsidiaries.

(vi) No Assignment to Natural Persons. No such assignment shall be made to a natural person.

Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 13.12(b) hereof, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 13.6 and 13.15 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with Section 13.11 hereof.

(b) Register. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices in Chicago, Illinois, a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The

- 75 -

Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(c) Any Lender may at any time pledge or grant a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any such pledge or grant to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or grant of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or grant of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or secured party for such Lender as a party hereto; provided further, however, the right of any such pledgee or grantee (other than any Federal Reserve Bank) to further transfer all or any portion of the rights pledged or granted to it, whether by means of foreclosure or otherwise, shall be at all times subject to the terms of this Agreement.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if at any time the Swing Line Lender assigns all of its Revolving Credit Commitments and Revolving Loans pursuant to subsection (a) above, the Swing Line Lender may terminate the Swing Line. In the event of such termination of the Swing Line, the Borrower shall be entitled to appoint another Lender to act as the successor Swing Line Lender hereunder (with such Lender’s consent); provided, however, that the failure of the Borrower to appoint a successor shall not affect the resignation of the Swing Line Lender. If the Swing Line Lender terminates the Swing Line, it shall retain all of the rights of the Swing Line Lender provided hereunder with respect to Swing Loans made by it and outstanding as of the effective date of such termination, including the right to require Lenders to make Revolving Loans or fund participations in outstanding Swing Loans pursuant to Section 1.7 hereof.

Section 13.13. Confidential Information. The Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuers, and the Lenders each severally agree to use their commercially reasonable best efforts to keep confidential any nonpublic information of the type that is ordinarily considered confidential or is otherwise designated by the Borrower as confidential that is delivered to them by the Borrower (herein, the “Information”), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its and its Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors to the extent any such Person has a need to know such Information (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will first be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners), (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party hereto, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (A) any assignee of or participant in, or any prospective assignee of or participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or (B) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to the Borrower or any Subsidiary and its obligations, (g) with the prior written consent of the Borrower, (h) to the extent such Information (A) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (B) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, any

- 76 -

L/C Issuer, or any Lender on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the Borrower or any Subsidiary or any of their directors, officers, employees or agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors, (i) to rating agencies if requested or required by such agencies in connection with a rating relating to the Loans or Commitments hereunder, or (j) to entities which compile and publish information about the syndicated loan market, provided that only basic information about the pricing and structure of the transaction evidenced hereby may be disclosed pursuant to this subsection (j).

Section 13.14. Amendments. (a) Any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents may be amended or waived if, but only if, such amendment or waiver is in writing and is signed by (x) the Borrower, (y) the Required Lenders, and (z) if the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent, L/C Issuer, or Swing Line Lender are affected thereby, the Administrative Agent, such L/C Issuer, or Swing Line Lender, as applicable; provided that:

(i) no amendment or waiver pursuant to this Section 13.14 shall (A) increase any Commitment of any Lender without the consent of such Lender, or (B) reduce the amount of or postpone the date for payment of any scheduled principal of or interest on any existing or future Loan or of any Reimbursement Obligation or of any fee payable hereunder without the consent of the Lender to which such payment is owing or which has committed to make such Loan or Letter of Credit (or participate therein) hereunder; and

(ii) no amendment or waiver pursuant to this Section 13.14 shall, unless signed by each Lender, extend the Revolving Credit Termination Date or change the definition of Required Lenders, change the provisions of this Section 13.14, release any material guarantor or all or substantially all of the Collateral (except as otherwise provided for in the Loan Documents), or affect the number of Lenders required to take any action hereunder or under any other Loan Document or change the pro rata treatment of the Lenders as provided in the Loan Documents.

(b) If, in connection with any proposed change, waiver, discharge or termination of any of the provisions of this Agreement which requires the consent of all the Lenders, and the consent of the Required Lenders is obtained but the consent of one or more of such other Lenders whose consent is sought is not obtained, then the Borrower shall have the right, subject to the approval of the Administrative Agent and so long as all non-consenting Lenders whose individual consent is sought are treated as described in either clauses (A) or (B) below, to either (A) replace each such non-consenting Lender or Lenders with one or more replacement Lenders in accordance with the provisions of Section 1.15 so long as the time of such replacement, each such replacement Lender consents to the proposed change, waiver, discharge or termination or (B) terminate each such non-consenting Lender’s Commitment and repay the outstanding Obligations of each such non-consenting Lender in accordance with Section 1.15, provided that, unless the Commitment that is terminated and the Obligations that are repaid pursuant to preceding clause (B) are immediately replaced in full at such time through the addition of new Lenders or the increase of the Commitments and/or outstanding Loans and interests in outstanding Letters of Credit of existing Lenders (who in each case must specifically consent thereto), then in the case of any action pursuant to preceding clause (B) the Required Lenders

- 77 -

(determined without giving effect to the non-consenting Lenders) shall specifically consent thereto, provided further, that in any event the Borrower shall not have the right to replace a Lender if, immediately after the termination of such Lender’s Commitment and the repayment of such Lender’s Obligations, if immediately thereafter the sum of (i) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Revolving Loans plus (ii) the aggregate amount of Swing Line Loans plus (iii) the aggregate amount of L/C Obligations, exceeds the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments as then in effect.

Section 13.15. Headings. Section headings used in this Agreement are for reference only and shall not affect the construction of this Agreement.

Section 13.16. Costs and Expenses; Indemnification. (a) The Borrower agrees to pay all reasonable costs and out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent in connection with the preparation, negotiation, syndication, and administration of the Loan Documents, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel to the Administrative Agent, in connection with the preparation and execution of the Loan Documents, and any amendment, waiver or consent related thereto, whether or not the transactions contemplated herein are consummated, together with any fees and charges suffered or incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with periodic environmental audits, fixed asset appraisals, title insurance policies, collateral filing fees and lien searches. The Borrower further agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent, each L/C Issuer, each Lender, and any security trustee therefor, and their respective directors, officers, employees, agents, financial advisors, and consultants (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”), against all losses, claims, damages, penalties, judgments, liabilities, and reasonable expenses (including, without limitation, all reasonable expenses of litigation or preparation therefor, whether or not the Indemnitee is a party thereto, or any settlement arrangement arising from or relating to any such litigation) which any of them may pay or incur arising out of or relating to any Loan Document or any of the transactions contemplated thereby or the direct or indirect application or proposed application of the proceeds of any Loan or Letter of Credit, other than those which arise from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the party claiming indemnification or such party’s material breach of this Agreement. The Borrower, upon demand by the Administrative Agent, a L/C Issuer, or a Lender at any time, shall reimburse the Administrative Agent, such L/C Issuer, or such Lender for any reasonable legal or other expenses incurred in connection with investigating or defending against any of the foregoing (including any settlement costs relating to the foregoing) except if the same is directly due to the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the party to be indemnified. To the extent permitted by applicable law, neither the Borrower nor any Guarantor shall assert, and each such Person hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof. The obligations of the Borrower under this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

(b) The Borrower unconditionally agrees to forever indemnify, defend, and hold harmless, and covenants not to ▇▇▇ for any claim for contribution against, each Indemnitee for

- 78 -

any damages, costs, loss, or expense, including, without limitation, response, remedial, or removal costs, arising out of any of the following: (i) any presence, release, threatened release, or disposal of any hazardous or toxic substance or petroleum by the Borrower or any Subsidiary or otherwise occurring on or with respect to its Property (whether owned or leased), (ii) the operation or violation of any environmental law, whether federal, state, or local, and any regulations promulgated thereunder, by the Borrower or any Subsidiary or otherwise occurring on or with respect to its Property (whether owned or leased), (iii) any claim for personal injury or property damage in connection with the Borrower or any Subsidiary or otherwise occurring on or with respect to its Property (whether owned or leased), and (iv) the inaccuracy or breach of any environmental representation, warranty, or covenant by the Borrower or any Subsidiary made herein or in any other Loan Document evidencing or securing any Obligations or setting forth terms and conditions applicable thereto or otherwise relating thereto, except for damages arising from the willful misconduct or gross negligence of the party claiming indemnification or such party’s material breach of this Agreement. This indemnification shall survive the payment and satisfaction of all Obligations and the termination of this Agreement. This indemnification shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of the Borrower and shall inure to the benefit of each Indemnitee and its successors and assigns.

Section 13.17. Set-off. In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under the Loan Documents or applicable law and not by way of limitation of any such rights, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, with the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, each Lender, each L/C Issuer, each subsequent holder of any Obligation, and each of their respective affiliates, is hereby authorized by the Borrower and each Guarantor at any time or from time to time, without notice to the Borrower, any Guarantor or to any other Person, any such notice being hereby expressly waived, to set-off and to appropriate and to apply any and all deposits (general or special, including, but not limited to, indebtedness evidenced by certificates of deposit, whether matured or unmatured, and in whatever currency denominated, but not including trust accounts) and any other indebtedness at any time held or owing by that Lender, L/C Issuer, subsequent holder, or affiliate, to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower or such Guarantor, whether or not matured, against and on account of the Obligations of the Borrower or such Guarantor to that Lender, L/C Issuer, or subsequent holder under the Loan Documents, including, but not limited to, all claims of any nature or description arising out of or connected with the Loan Documents, irrespective of whether or not (a) that Lender, L/C Issuer, or subsequent holder shall have made any demand hereunder or (b) the principal of or the interest on the Loans and other amounts due hereunder shall have become due and payable pursuant to Section 9 and although said obligations and liabilities, or any of them, may be contingent or unmatured.

Section 13.18. Entire Agreement. The Loan Documents constitute the entire understanding of the parties thereto with respect to the subject matter thereof and any prior agreements, whether written or oral, with respect thereto are superseded hereby.

Section 13.19. Governing Law. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and the rights and duties of the parties hereto, shall be construed and determined in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Illinois.

- 79 -

Section 13.20. Severability of Provisions. Any provision of any Loan Document which is unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction. All rights, remedies and powers provided in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents may be exercised only to the extent that the exercise thereof does not violate any applicable mandatory provisions of law, and all the provisions of this Agreement and other Loan Documents are intended to be subject to all applicable mandatory provisions of law which may be controlling and to be limited to the extent necessary so that they will not render this Agreement or the other Loan Documents invalid or unenforceable.

Section 13.21. Excess Interest. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, no such provision shall require the payment or permit the collection of any amount in excess of the maximum amount of interest permitted by applicable law to be charged for the use or detention, or the forbearance in the collection, of all or any portion of the Loans or other obligations outstanding under this Agreement or any other Loan Document (“Excess Interest”). If any Excess Interest is provided for, or is adjudicated to be provided for, herein or in any other Loan Document, then in such event (a) the provisions of this Section shall govern and control; (b) neither of the Borrower nor any guarantor or endorser shall be obligated to pay any Excess Interest; (c) any Excess Interest that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have received hereunder shall, at the option of the Administrative Agent, be (i) applied as a credit against the then outstanding principal amount of Loans hereunder, accrued and unpaid interest thereon (not to exceed the maximum amount permitted by applicable law) and any other Obligations, or all of the foregoing; (ii) refunded to the Borrower, or (iii) any combination of the foregoing; (d) the interest rate payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be automatically subject to reduction to the maximum lawful contract rate allowed under applicable usury laws, and this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be deemed to have been, and shall be, reformed and modified to reflect such reduction in the relevant interest rate; and (e) neither of the Borrower nor any guarantor or endorser shall have any action against the Administrative Agent or any Lender for any damages whatsoever arising out of the payment or collection of any Excess Interest.

Section 13.22. Construction. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed or construed to permit any act or omission which is prohibited by the terms of any Collateral Document, the covenants and agreements contained herein being in addition to and not in substitution for the covenants and agreements contained in the Collateral Documents.

Section 13.23. Lender’s Obligations Several. The obligations of the Lenders hereunder are several and not joint. Nothing contained in this Agreement and no action taken by the Lenders pursuant hereto shall be deemed to constitute the Lenders a partnership, association, joint venture or other entity.

Section 13.24. Submission to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial. The Borrower and the Guarantors hereby submit to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois and of any Illinois State court sitting in the City of Chicago for purposes of all legal proceedings arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the other Loan

- 80 -

Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby. The Borrower and the Guarantors irrevocably waive, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection which they may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such proceeding brought in such a court and any claim that any such proceeding brought in such a court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. The Borrower, the Guarantors, the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuers, and the Lenders hereby irrevocably waive any and all right to trial by jury in any legal proceeding arising out of or relating to any Loan Document or the transactions contemplated thereby.

Section 13.25. USA Patriot Act. Each L/C Issuer and each Lender that is subject to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Act”) hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the Act, it is required to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies the Borrower, which information includes the name and address of the Borrower and other information that will allow such L/C Issuer or such Lender to identify the Borrower in accordance with the Act.

Section 13.26. Equalization of Loans and Commitments. Upon the satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 7.2 hereof, all loans and letters of credit outstanding under the Prior Credit Agreement shall remain outstanding as the initial Borrowing of Loans and Letters of Credit under this Agreement and, in connection therewith, the Borrower shall be deemed to have prepaid all outstanding Eurodollar Loans on the Effective Date and shall pay to each Lender who is currently a party to the Prior Credit Agreement any compensation due such Lender under Section 1.12 of the Prior Credit Agreement as a result thereof. On the Effective Date, the Lenders each agree to make such purchases and sales of interests in the outstanding Loans and interests in outstanding Letters of Credit between themselves so that each Lender is then holding its relevant Percentage of outstanding Loans and L/C Obligations. Such purchases and sales shall be arranged through the Administrative Agent and each Lender hereby agrees to execute such further instruments and documents, if any, as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request in connection therewith.

Section 13.27. Amendment and Restatement. This Agreement shall become effective on the Effective Date and shall supersede all provisions of the Prior Credit Agreement as of such date. From and after the Effective Date all references made to the Prior Credit Agreement in any Loan Document or in any other instrument or document shall, without more, be deemed to refer to this Agreement. The Borrower and the Guarantors heretofore executed and delivered certain Collateral Documents. The Borrower and the Guarantors hereby acknowledge and agree that the Liens created and provided for by the Collateral Documents continue to secure, among other things, the Obligations arising under this Agreement; and the Collateral Documents and the rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent thereunder, the obligations of the Borrower and the Guarantors thereunder, and the Liens created and provided for thereunder remain in full force and effect and shall not be affected, impaired or discharged hereby. Nothing herein contained shall in any manner affect or impair the priority of the liens and security interests created and provided for by the Collateral Documents as to the indebtedness which would be secured thereby prior to giving effect to this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, the parties to this Agreement hereby acknowledge and agree that the “Credit Agreement” and any other Loan

- 81 -

Document referred to in any of the Collateral Documents shall from and after the date hereof be deemed a reference to this Agreement and the Loan Documents referred to herein

Section 13.28. Removal of Lender and Assignment of Interests. The Departing Lender hereby agrees to sell and assign without representation, recourse, or warranty (except the Departing Lender represents it has authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and sell its Obligations contemplated hereby, which Obligations are owned by the Departing Lender free and clear of all Liens), and upon the satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 7.2 hereof the Lenders hereby agree to purchase, 100% of the Departing Lender’s outstanding Obligations under the Prior Credit Agreement and the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, all of the loans held by the Departing Lender, together with all of its interests in outstanding letters of credit, provided ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇.▇. shall remain a party to the Credit Agreement as the L/C Issuer of the Existing Letters of Credit) for a purchase price equal to the outstanding principal balance of loans and accrued but unpaid interest and fees owed to the Departing Lender under the Prior Credit Agreement as of the Effective Date, which purchase price shall be paid in immediately available funds on the Effective Date. Such purchases and sales shall be arranged through the Administrative Agent and the Departing Lender hereby agrees to execute such further instruments and documents, if any, as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request in connection therewith. Upon the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Departing Lender, the Lenders, the L/C Issuers, and the Borrower and the payment of the Obligations owing to the Departing Lender, the Departing Lender shall cease to be a Lender under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents (except ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇.▇., shall remain as an L/C Issuer with respect to the Existing Letters of Credit), and (i) the Lenders shall have the rights of the Departing Lender thereunder subject to the terms and conditions hereof and (ii) the Departing Lender shall have relinquished its rights (other than rights to indemnification and reimbursements referred to in the Prior Credit Agreement which survive the repayment of the Obligations owed to the Departing Lender in accordance with its terms, including Section 13.6 and 13.16 thereof, and ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇.▇.’s rights as L/C Issuer of the Existing Letters of Credit) and be released from their obligations under the Prior Credit Agreement (except ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇.▇. as an L/C Issuer with respect to the Existing Letters of Credit).
