Within the limits of the Commitment, the Borrower may borrow, repay and reborrow under this Section 2.01. On such terms and conditions, the Loans may be outstanding as Prime Loans or LIBOR Loans. Each type of Loan shall be made and maintained at such Bank’s Lending Office for such type of Loan. The failure of any Bank to make any requested Revolving Credit Loan to be made by it on the date specified for such Loan shall not relieve any other Bank of its obligation (if any) to make such Loan on such date, but no Bank shall be responsible for the failure of any other Bank to make such Loans to be made by such other Bank.

Section 2.02. Notice and Manner of Borrowing. The Borrower shall give the Agent irrevocable written notice of any Revolving Credit Loans under this Agreement, not later than 12:00 noon (central time) on the requested funding date before each Revolving Credit Loan, specifying: (1) the date of such Loan; (2) the amount of such Loan; (3) the type of Loan; and (4) in the case of a LIBOR Loan, the duration of the Interest Period applicable thereto. The Agent shall promptly notify the Paying Agent and each Bank of each such notice. Not later than 2:00p.m. (Central time) on the date of such Revolving Credit Loans, each Bank will make available to the Paying Agent in immediately available funds, such Bank’s Pro Rata Share of such Revolving Credit Loans. After the Paying Agent’s receipt of such funds, not later than 4:30 p.m. (Central time) on the date of such Revolving Credit Loans and upon fulfillment of the applicable conditions set forth in Article 3, the

Paying Agent will make such Revolving Credit Loans available to the Borrower in immediately available funds by crediting the amount thereof to the Borrower’s account with the Agent.

Section 2.03. Non-Receipt of Funds by Agent. Unless the Agent and Paying Agent shall have received notice from a Bank prior to the date on which such Bank is to provide funds to the Paying Agent for a Loan to be made by such Bank that such Bank will not make available to the Paying Agent such funds, the Paying Agent may assume that such Bank has made such funds available to the Paying Agent on the date of such Loan in accordance with Section 2.04 and the Paying Agent in its sole discretion may, but shall not be obligated to, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If and to the extent such Bank shall not have so made such funds available to the Paying Agent, such Bank agrees to repay to the Paying Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to the Borrower until the date such amount is repaid to the Paying Agent, at the customary rate set by the Paying Agent for the correction of errors among banks for three Business Days and thereafter at the Prime Rate. If such Bank shall repay to the Paying Agent such corresponding amount, such amount so repaid shall constitute such Bank’s Loan for purposes of this Agreement. If such Bank does not pay such corresponding amount forthwith upon the Paying Agent’s demand therefor, the Paying Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower, and the Borrower shall immediately pay such corresponding amount to the Paying Agent with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to the Borrower until the date such amount is repaid to the Paying Agent, at the rate of interest applicable at the time to such proposed Loan.

Unless the Agent and Paying Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Banks hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment in full, the Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment in full to the Paying Agent on such date and the Agent and the Paying Agent in its sole discretion may, but shall not be obligated to, in reliance upon such assumption, cause to be distributed to each Bank on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such Bank. If and to the extent the Borrower shall not have so made such payment in full to the Paying Agent, each Bank shall repay to the Paying Agent forthwith on demand such amount distributed to such Bank together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is distributed to such Bank until the date such Bank repays such amount to the Paying Agent, at the customary rate set by the Paying Agent for the correction of errors among banks for three (3) Business Days and thereafter at the Prime Rate.

Section 2.04. Settlement. It is agreed that each Bank’s funded portion of the Revolving Credit Loan is intended by the Banks to be equal at all times to such Bank’s Pro Rata Share of the outstanding Revolving Credit Loans. Notwithstanding such agreement, the Paying Agent, and the other Banks agree (which agreement shall not be for the benefit of or enforceable by the Borrower) that in order to facilitate the administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, settlement among them as to the Revolving Credit Loans shall take place on a periodic basis in accordance with the following provisions:

(i) The Paying Agent shall request settlement (“settlement”) with the Banks on a daily basis, or on a more frequent basis if so determined by the Paying Agent, (1) with respect to

each outstanding Loan, and (2) with respect to collections received, in each case, by notifying the Banks of such requested Settlement by telecopy, telephone, or other similar form of transmission, of such requested Settlement, no later than 10:00 a.m. (Tulsa, Oklahoma time) on each Business Day (the “Settlement Date”). Each Bank shall make the amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the outstanding principal amount of the Loan with respect to which Settlement is requested available to the Paying Agent in same day funds to such account of the Paying Agent as the Paying Agent may designate, not later than 12:00 noon (Tulsa, Oklahoma time), on the Settlement Date applicable thereto, regardless of whether the applicable conditions precedent set forth in Article 3 have then been satisfied. Such amounts made available to the Paying Agent shall be applied against the amount of the applicable loan and, together with the portion of such Loan representing Bank’s Pro Rata Share thereof, shall constitute Revolving Credit Loans of such Banks. If any such amount is not made available to the Paying Agent by any Bank on the Settlement Date applicable thereto, the Paying Agent shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Bank together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Rate for the first three (3) days from and after such demand and thereafter at the Interest Rate then applicable to the Revolving Credit Loans.

(ii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, not more than one (1) Business Day after demand is made by the Paying Agent, each other Bank shall irrevocably and unconditionally purchase and receive from the Paying Agent, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation in such Revolving Credit Loan to the extent of such Bank’s Pro Rata Share thereof by paying to the Paying Agent, in same day funds, an amount equal to such Bank’s Pro Rata Share of such Revolving Credit Loan. If such amount is not in fact made available to the paying Agent by any Bank, the Paying Agent shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Bank together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Rate for the first three (3) days from and after such demand and thereafter at the Interest Rate then applicable to the Revolving Credit Loans.

(iii) From and after the date, if any, on which any Bank purchases an undivided interest and participation in any Revolving Credit Loan pursuant to subsection (ii) above, the Paying Agent shall, subject to reimbursement to Paying Agent for any amounts due from such Bank, promptly distribute to such Bank at such address as such Bank may request in writing, such Bank’s Pro Rata Share of all payments of principal and interest and all proceeds of Collateral received by the Paying Agent in respect of such Revolving Credit Loan.

(iv) The Paying Agent shall record on its books the principal amount of the Revolving Loans owing to each Bank. In addition, each Bank is authorized, at such Bank’s option, to note the date and amount of each payment or prepayment of principal of such Bank’s Revolving Credit Loans in its books and records, including computer records, such books and records constituting rebuttably presumptive evidence, absent manifest error, of the accuracy of the information contained therein.

(v) All Revolving Credit Loans shall be made by the Banks simultaneously and in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares. It is understood that (a) no Bank shall be responsible for any failure by any other Bank to perform its obligation to make any Revolving Credit Loans hereunder, (b) no failure by any Banks to perform its obligation to make any Revolving Credit Loan hereunder

shall excuse any other Bank from its obligation to make any Revolving Credit Loans hereunder, and (c) the obligations of each Bank hereunder shall be several, not joint and several.

Section 2.05. Interest. The Borrower shall pay interest to the Agent for the account of each Bank on the outstanding and unpaid principal amount of that Bank’s Revolving Credit Loans made under this Agreement at a rate per annum, as follows:

(1) For a Prime Loan at the Adjusted Prime Rate; and

(2) For a LIBOR Loan at the Adjusted LIBOR Rate.

The Adjusted Prime Rate and Adjusted LIBOR Rate shall be determined in accordance with the following:


*Borrower’s Ratio of*	*Adjusted*	*Adjusted*
*Funded Debt to EBITDA*	*LIBOR Rate*	*Prime Rate*
< 2.0	LIBOR Rate plus 3.0%	Prime Rate plus 0.0%
³ 2.0 < 2.25	LIBOR Rate plus 3.25%	Prime Rate plus .25%
³ 2.25 < 2.50	LIBOR Rate plus 3.50%	Prime Rate plus .50%
> 2.50	LIBOR Rate plus 3.75%	Prime Rate plus .75%

Any change in the interest rate based on the Prime Rate resulting from a change in the Prime Rate shall be effective as of the opening of business on the day on which such change in the Prime Rate becomes effective. The ratio of Funded Debt to EBITDA shall be calculated based upon the immediately preceding twelve (12) consecutive full months.

Interest on each Prime Loan and LIBOR Loan shall be calculated on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed.

Interest on the Loans shall be paid in immediately available funds to the Agent at its Principal Office for the account of the applicable Lending Office of each Bank as follows:

(1) For each Prime Loan on the first day of each month commencing the first such date after such Loan and at maturity for such Loan; and

(2) For each LIBOR Loan, on the last day of the Interest Period with respect thereto and, in the case of an Interest Period greater than three months, at three (3) month intervals after the first day of such Interest Period.

Section 2.06. Interest Rate Determination. The Agent shall give prompt notice to the Borrower and the Banks of the applicable interest rate determined by the Agent pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

Section 2.07. Unused Portion Fee. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Agent for the account of each Bank a commitment fee on the average daily unused portion of such Bank’s Commitment from the date of this Agreement until the Termination Date at the rate of one-tenth of one percent (1/10 of 1%) per annum, payable on the last day of each quarter during the term of such Bank’s Commitment, commencing December 31, 2004, and ending on the Termination Date. Upon receipt of any commitment fees, the Agent will promptly thereafter cause to be distributed such payments to the Banks in the proportion that each Bank’s unused Commitment bears to the total of all the Banks’ unused Commitments; provided, that any Additional Lender will not receive any payment of Unused Portion Fees earned or paid prior to the date this Agreement is executed by said Additional Lender. Further, no Unused Portion Fees will be paid for any given month during which the average monthly revolving balance exceeds $21,900,000 during each quarter the Unused Portion Fee is billed.

Section 2.08. Notes. All Loans made by each Bank under this Agreement shall be evidenced by, and repaid with interest in accordance with, a promissory note of the Borrower to Bank in the amount of the Bank’s Commitment, in form and content as set forth on Exhibit “D-1” through “Exhibit D-7” hereto, duly completed, dated the date of this Agreement or, with respect to the Note to an Additional Lender, a date to be determined, and payable to such Bank for the account of its applicable Lending Office, such Note to represent the obligation of the Borrower to repay the Loans. Each Bank is hereby authorized by the Borrower to endorse on the schedule attached to the Note held by it the amount and type of each Revolving Credit Loan and each renewal, conversion, and payment of principal amount received by such Bank for the account of its applicable Lending Office on account of its Revolving Credit Loans, which endorsement shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive as to the outstanding balance of the Revolving Credit Loans made by such Bank; provided, however, that the failure to make such notation with respect to any Revolving Credit Loan or renewal, conversion, or payment shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement or the Note held by such Bank.

The aggregate principal balance and all accrued interest of all Loans shall be repaid on the Termination Date.

Section 2.09. Method of Payment. The Borrower shall make each payment under this Agreement and under the Notes not later than 5:00 p.m. (Central time) on the date when due in lawful money of the United States to the Agent at its Principal Office for the account of the applicable Lending Office of each Bank in immediately available funds. The Agent will promptly thereafter cause to be distributed (1) such payments of principal and interest in like funds to each Bank for the account of its applicable Lending Office in the proportion that such Bank’s Loans to which the payment applies bears to the total amount of all Banks’ Loans to which the payment applies and (2) other fees payable to any Bank to be applied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement; provided, that any Additional Lender will not receive any payment of principal, interest or fees accrued or paid by Borrower prior to the date this Agreement is executed by said Additional Lender. The Borrower hereby authorizes each Bank, if and to the extent payment is not made when

due under this Agreement or under the Notes, to charge from time to time against any account of the Borrower with such Bank any amount as due. Whenever any payment to be made under this Agreement or under the Notes shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall be included in the computation of the payment of interest and the commitment fee, as the case may be, except, in the case of a LIBOR Loan, if the result of such extension would be to extend such payment into another calendar month, such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day.

Section 2.10. Use of Proceeds. The proceeds of the Loan hereunder shall be used by the Borrower to finance working capital requirements and repay certain existing indebtedness. The Borrower will not, directly or indirectly, use any part of such proceeds for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any margin stock within the meaning of Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System or to extend credit to any Persons for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any such margin stock, or for any purpose which violates, or is inconsistent with, Regulation X of such Board of Governors.

Section 2.11. Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, if any Bank determines that 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 such Bank (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 shall make it unlawful or impossible for such Bank (or its Lending Office) to maintain or fund its LIBOR Loans, then upon notice to the Borrower (with a copy to the Agent) by such Bank the outstanding principal amount of all LIBOR Loans, together with interest accrued thereon, and any other amounts payable to each Bank under this Agreement shall be repaid (a) immediately upon demand of such Bank if such change or compliance with such request, in the judgment of such Bank, requires immediate repayment, or (b) at the expiration of the last Interest Period to expire before the effective date of any such change or request.

Section 2.12. Disaster. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if the Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive) that the relevant rates of interest referred to in the definition of LIBOR Rate upon the basis of which the rate of interest for any such type of Loan is to be determined do not accurately cover the cost to the Banks of making or maintaining such type of Loans, then the Agent shall forthwith give notice thereof to the Borrower, whereupon (a) the obligation of the Banks to make LIBOR Loans shall be suspended until the Agent notifies the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, and (b) the Borrower shall repay in full the then outstanding principal amount of each LIBOR Loan together with accrued interest thereon, on the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable to such Loan.

Section 2.13. Increased Cost. From time to time upon notice to the Borrower from a Bank (with a copy to the Agent) the Borrower shall pay to the Agent for the account of the applicable Bank such amounts as any Bank may determine to be necessary to compensate such Bank for any costs incurred by such Bank which such Bank reasonably determines are attributable to its making or maintaining any LIBOR Loan hereunder or its obligation to make any such Loan hereunder, or any

reduction in any amount receivable by such Bank under this Agreement or its Note in respect of any such Loans or such obligation (such increases in costs and reductions in amounts receivable being herein called “Additional Costs”), resulting from any change after the date of this Agreement in U.S. federal, state, municipal, or foreign laws or regulations (including Regulation D), or the adoption or making after such date of any interpretations, directives, or requirements applying to a class of banks including such Bank of or under U.S. federal, state, municipal, or foreign laws or regulations (whether or not having the force of law) by any court or governmental or monetary authority charged with the interpretation or administration thereof (“Regulatory Change”), which: (1) changes the basis of taxation of any amounts payable to such Bank under this Agreement or its Note in respect of any of such Loans (other than taxes imposed on the overall net income of such Bank or of its Lending Office for any of such Loans by the jurisdiction where the Principal Office or such Lending Office is located); or (2) imposes or modifies any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, or similar requirements relating to any extensions of credit or other assets of, or any deposits with or other liabilities of, such Bank pertaining to this Agreement (including any of such Loans or any deposits referred to in the definition of LIBOR Rate); or (3) imposes any other condition affecting this Agreement or its Note (or any of such extensions of credit or liabilities). Such Bank will notify the Borrower (with a copy to the Agent) of any event occurring after the date of this Agreement which will entitle such Bank to compensation pursuant to this Section 2.13 as promptly as practicable after it obtains knowledge thereof and determines to request such compensation.

Determinations by any Bank for purposes of this Section 2.13 of the effect of any Regulatory Change on its costs of making or maintaining Loans or on amounts receivable by it in respect of Loans, and of the additional amounts required to compensate any such Bank in respect of any Additional Costs, shall be conclusive, provided that such determinations are made on a reasonable basis.

Section 2.14. Risk-Based Capital. In the event that any Bank determines that (1) compliance with any judicial, administrative, or other governmental interpretation of any law or regulation or (2) compliance by such Bank or any corporation controlling such Bank with any guideline or request from any central bank or other governmental authority (whether or not having the force of law) has the effect of requiring an increase in the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by such Bank or any corporation controlling such Bank, and such Bank reasonably determines that such increase is based upon its obligations hereunder, and other similar obligations, the Borrower shall pay to the Agent, for the account of the applicable Bank, such additional amount as shall be reasonably determined by the Bank to be the amount attributable to such Bank’s obligations to the Borrower hereunder. Such Bank will notify the Borrower (with a copy to the Agent) of any event occurring after the date of this Agreement that will entitle such Bank to compensation pursuant to this Section 2.14 as promptly as practicable after it obtains knowledge thereof and determines to request such compensation.

Determinations by any Bank for purposes of this Section 2.14 of the effect of any increase in the amount of capital required to be maintained by such Bank and of the amount attributable to such Bank’s obligations to the Borrower hereunder shall be conclusive, provided that such determinations are made on a reasonable basis.

Section 2.15. Funding Loss Indemnification. Upon notice to the Borrower from a Bank (with a copy to the Agent) the Borrower shall pay to the Agent for the account of the applicable Bank, such amount or amounts as shall be sufficient (in the reasonable opinion of such Bank) to compensate it for any loss, cost, or expense incurred as a result of:

(3) Any payment of a LIBOR Loan on a date other than the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan including, but not limited to acceleration of the Loans by the Agent pursuant to Section 8.01; or

(4) Any failure by the Borrower to borrow or convert, as the case may be, a LIBOR Loan on the date for borrowing or conversion, as the case may be, specified in the relevant notice under Section 2.02.

Section 2.16. Termination Fee. The Borrower may terminate this Agreement at any time upon not less than ten (10) Business Day’s notice to Agent of such intention, provided, that all monetary obligations (e.g. payment of Notes) and any indemnification shall continue; and provided further that Borrower agrees to pay to the Agent for the account of each Bank a termination fee in an aggregate amount equal to $90,000 in the event the credit facility is terminated for any reason prior to six (6) months from the execution date hereof; provided, that no termination fee shall be payable for any prepayment if the Borrower is required to make any payments under Sections 2.13 and/or 2.14.

Section 2.17. Audit Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Agent all costs and fees reasonably incurred by the Agent’s internal auditors in connection with quarterly audits of the Borrower performed by such auditors during the term of this Agreement; provided that, prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Agent shall not be entitled to reimbursement for any such costs and fees incurred in connection with audits in an amount greater than $7,500 during any year (with each year beginning on the Closing Date or an anniversary date thereof and ending twelve (12) months thereafter) of this Agreement. A pro-rata portion of the audit fee shall be payable in arrears on the first day of each month commencing with the month immediately following the Closing Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, the Borrower shall pay all of the Agent’s costs incurred in connection with the verification, audit, and inspection of the Collateral without regard to the foregoing limitations.

Section 2.18. Right to Cure. The Agent may, in its discretion, pay any amount or do any act required of the Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document in order to preserve, protect, maintain or enforce the Obligations, the Collateral or the Agent’s Liens therein, which the Borrower fails to pay or do, including, without limitation, payment of any judgment against the Borrower, any insurance premium, any landlord’s claim, any other Lien upon or with respect to the Collateral. All payments that the Agent makes under this Section 2.18 and all out-of-pocket costs and expenses that the Agent pays or incurs in connection with any action taken by it hereunder shall be charged to the Borrower’s Loan Account as a Revolving Credit Loan. Any payment made or other action taken by the Agent under this Section 2.18 shall be without prejudice to any right to assert an Event of Default hereunder.

Section 2.19. Agency Fee. Borrower agrees to pay Agent for its sole benefit an annual agency fee equal to $30,000, payable in twelve (12) monthly installments of $2,500 on the first day of each month.

AGENCY PROVISIONS

Section 9.01. Authorization and Action. Each Bank hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement as are delegated to the Agent by the terms hereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The duties of the Agent shall be mechanical and administrative in nature and the Agent shall not by reason of this Agreement be a trustee or fiduciary for any Bank. The Agent shall have no duties or responsibilities except those expressly set forth herein. As to any matters not expressly provided for by this Agreement (including, without limitation, enforcement or collection of the Notes), the Agent shall not be required to exercise any discretion or take any action, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in so acting or so refraining from acting) upon the instructions of the Majority Banks, and such instructions shall be binding upon all Banks and all holders of Notes; provided, however, that the Agent shall not be required to take any action which exposes the Agent to personal liability or which is contrary to this Agreement or applicable law.

Section 9.02. Liability of Agent. Neither the Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents or employees shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them under or in connection with this Agreement in the absence of its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limitation of the generality of the foregoing, the Agent (1) may treat the payee of any Note as the holder thereof until the Agent receives written notice of the assignment or transfer thereof signed by such payee and in form satisfactory to the Agent; (2) may consult with legal counsel (including counsel for the Borrower), independent public accountants and other experts selected by it and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants, or experts; (3) makes no warranty or representation to any Bank and shall not be responsible to any Bank for any statements, warranties, or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement; (4) shall not have any duty to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants, or

Section 9.03. Rights of Agent as a Bank. With respect to its Commitment, the Loans made by it and the Note issued to it, the Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Bank and may exercise the same as though it were not the Agent; and the term “Bank” or “Banks” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated, include the Agent in its individual capacity. The Agent and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as trustee under indentures of, and generally engage in any kind of business with, the Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries and any Person who may do business with or own securities of the Borrower or any Subsidiary, all as if the Agent were not the Agent and without any duty to account therefor to the Banks.

Section 9.04. Independent Credit Decisions. Each Bank acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Agent or any other Bank and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Bank also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Agent or any other Bank and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement. Except for notices, reports and other documents and information expressly required to be furnished to the Banks by the Agent hereunder, the Agent shall have no duty or responsibility to provide any Bank with any credit or other information concerning the affairs, financial condition or business of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (or any of their Affiliates) which may come into the possession of the Agent or any of its Affiliates.

Section 9.05. Indemnification. The Banks agree to indemnify the Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower), ratably according to the respective amounts of their Commitments, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against the Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any action taken or omitted by the Agent under this Agreement, provided that no Bank shall be liable for any portion of any of the foregoing resulting from the Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Bank agrees to reimburse the Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower) promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any out-of-pocket expenses (including counsel fees) incurred by the Agent in connection with the preparation, administration, or enforcement of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement.

Section 9.06. Successor Agent. The Agent may resign at any time by giving at least sixty (60) days’ prior written notice thereof to the Banks and the Borrower and may be removed at any time with or without cause by the Majority Banks. Upon any such resignation or removal, the

Majority Banks shall have the right to appoint a successor Agent. If no successor Agent shall have been so appointed by the Majority Banks, and shall have accepted such appointment, within thirty (30) days after the retiring Agent’s giving of notice of resignation or the Majority Banks’ removal of the retiring Agent, then the retiring Agent may, on behalf of the Banks, appoint a successor Agent, which shall be a 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 Fifty Million Dollars ($50,000,000). Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Agent hereunder by a successor Agent, such successor Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement. After any retiring Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder as Agent, the provisions of this Article 9 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Agent under this Agreement.

Section 9.07. Sharing of Payments, Etc. If any Bank shall obtain any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of setoff, or otherwise) on account of the Note held by it in excess of its ratable share of payments on account of the Notes obtained by all the Banks, such Bank shall purchase from the other Banks such participations in the Notes held by them as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Bank to share the excess payment ratably with each of the other Banks, provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from such purchasing Bank, such purchase from each Bank shall be rescinded and each Bank shall repay to the purchasing Bank the purchase price to the extent of such recovery together with an amount equal to such Bank’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (1) the amount of such Bank’s required repayment to (2) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Bank) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Bank in respect of the total amount so recovered. The Borrower agrees that any Bank so purchasing a participation from another Bank pursuant to this Section 9.07 may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of setoff) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Bank were the direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation.

Section 9.08. Reservation of Rights. Bank of Arkansas, N.A. shall be entitled to purchase the interest of any other Bank at any time at its discretion, which shall be accomplished by delivery of notification of such intent by Bank of Arkansas, N.A. to the selling Bank together with payment of any outstanding Loans from the selling Bank, whereupon the selling Bank shall endorse and deliver its note(s) to Bank of Arkansas, N.A.
