          THIS SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT is made as of this 6th day of March, 2007, by and among BANK OF AMERICA, N.A. (“Bank of America”), a Rhode Island corporation with an office at ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, individually as a Lender, as Agent (“Agent”) for itself and any other financial institution which is or becomes a party hereto (each such financial institution, including Bank of America, is referred to hereinafter individually as a “Lender” and collectively as the “Lenders”), the LENDERS, LASALLE BANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, individually as a Lender and as Syndication Agent for Lenders, ▇▇▇▇▇ FARGO FOOTHILL, LLC, individually as a Lender and as a Syndication Agent for Lenders, JPMORGAN CHASE BANK, N.A., individually as a Lender and as a Documentation Agent for Lenders, BANC OF AMERICA SECURITIES LLC, as sole lead arranger and book manager (“Arranger”), and each of WABASH NATIONAL CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation with its chief executive office and principal place of business at ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ (“Wabash”) and EACH SUBSIDIARY OF WABASH THAT IS IDENTIFIED ON THE SIGNATURE PAGES HERETO AS A BORROWER; Wabash and each such Subsidiary are hereafter referred to collectively, as “Borrowers” and individually, as “Borrower”. Capitalized terms used in this Agreement have the meanings assigned to them in Appendix A, General Definitions. Accounting terms not otherwise specifically defined herein shall be construed in accordance with GAAP consistently applied. This Agreement amends, supercedes, restates and replaces in its entirety that certain Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement dated as of December 30, 2004 (the “Original Loan Agreement”) by and among Agent, the other agents party thereto, Lenders and Borrowers, which in turn amended, superceded, restated and replaced in its entirety that certain Loan and Security Agreement dated as of September 23, 2003 by and among Agent, the other agents party thereto, Lenders, Fleet Securities, Inc., as arranger, and Borrowers.

SECTION 1. CREDIT FACILITY

          Subject to the terms and conditions of, and in reliance upon the representations and warranties made in, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, Lenders agree to make a Total Credit Facility of up to $150,000,000 available to Borrowers upon a Borrower’s request therefor, as follows:

     1.1. Loans.

     1.1.1. Revolving Credit Loans. Each Lender agrees, severally and not jointly, for so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to make Revolving Credit Loans to Borrowers from time to time during the period from the date hereof to but not including the last day of the Term, as requested by Borrowers in the manner set forth in Section 1.4 and subsection 3.1.1 hereof, up to a maximum principal amount at any time outstanding equal to the lesser of (i) such Lender’s Revolving Loan

Commitment minus the product of such Lender’s Revolving Loan Percentage and the sum of the Dollar Equivalent of the LC Amount and LC Obligations minus the product of such Lender’s Revolving Loan Percentage and reserves, if any and (ii) the product of (a) such Lender’s Revolving Loan Percentage and (b) an amount equal to the sum of the Borrowing Base at such time minus the sum of the Dollar Equivalent of the LC Amount and LC Obligations minus reserves, if any. Agent shall have the right to establish reserves in such amounts, and with respect to such matters as Agent shall deem necessary or appropriate in its reasonable credit judgment, against the amount of Revolving Credit Loans which Borrowers may otherwise request under this subsection 1.1.1 including without limitation with respect to (i) price adjustments, damages, unearned discounts, returned products or other matters for which credit memoranda are issued in the ordinary course of a Borrower’s business; (ii) dilution related to Accounts in excess of five percent (5%); (iii) shrinkage, spoilage and obsolescence of Inventory; (iv) slow moving Inventory; (v) other sums chargeable against a Borrower’s Loan Account as Revolving Credit Loans under any section of this Agreement; (vi) amounts owing by a Borrower to any Person to the extent secured by a Lien on, or trust over, any Property of such Borrower, including without limitation Prior Claims; (vii) amounts owing by a Borrower in connection with Product Obligations and relating to currency exchange rate risk; and (viii) such other specific events, conditions or contingencies as to which Agent, in its reasonable credit judgment as is customary for asset based facilities of this type, determines reserves should be established from time to time hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Agent shall not establish any reserves in respect of any matters relating to any items of Collateral that have been taken into account in determining Eligible Inventory, Eligible Trailer Inventory, Eligible ▇▇▇▇ and Hold Inventory, Eligible Accounts. Eligible Equipment or Eligible Real Property, as applicable. The Revolving Credit Loans shall be repayable in accordance with the terms of the Revolving Notes and as set forth in subsection 3.2.1, and shall be secured by, among other things, all of the Collateral.

     1.1.2. Overadvances. Insofar as a Borrower may request and Agent or Majority Lenders (as provided below) may be willing in their sole and absolute discretion to make Revolving Credit Loans to such Borrower at a time when the unpaid balance of Revolving Credit Loans plus the sum of the Dollar Equivalent of the LC Amount plus the Dollar Equivalent of the amount of LC Obligations that have not been reimbursed by Borrowers or funded with a Revolving Credit Loan, plus reserves, exceeds, or would exceed with the making of any such Revolving Credit Loan, the Borrowing Base (such Loan or Loans being herein referred to individually as an “Overadvance” and collectively, as “Overadvances”), Agent shall enter such Overadvances as debits in the Loan Account. All Overadvances shall be repaid on demand, shall be secured by the Collateral and shall bear interest as provided in this Agreement for Revolving Credit Loans generally. Any Overadvance made pursuant to the terms hereof shall be made by all Lenders ratably in accordance with their respective Revolving Loan Percentages. Overadvances in the aggregate amount of $5,000,000 or less may, unless a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is

continuing (other than a Default or an Event of Default caused by the existence or making of such Overadvance), be made in the sole and absolute discretion of Agent. Overadvances in an aggregate amount of more than $5,000,000 but less than $7,500,000 may, unless a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing (other than a Default or Event of Default caused by the existence or making of such Overadvance), be made in the sole and absolute discretion of the Majority Lenders. Overadvances in an aggregate amount of $7,500,000 or more and Overadvances to be made after the occurrence and during the continuation of a Default or an Event of Default (other than a Default or Event of Default caused by the existence or making of such Overadvance) shall require the consent of all Lenders. The foregoing notwithstanding, in no event, unless otherwise consented to by all Lenders, (w) shall any Overadvances be outstanding for more than thirty (30) consecutive days, (x) after all outstanding Overadvances have been repaid, shall Agent or Lenders make any additional Overadvances unless sixty (60) days or more have expired since the last date on which any Overadvances were outstanding, (y) shall Overadvances be outstanding for more than sixty (60) days within any one hundred eighty day (180) period or (z) shall Agent make Revolving Credit Loans on behalf of Lenders under this subsection 1.1.2 to the extent such Revolving Credit Loans would cause a Lender’s share of the Revolving Credit Loans to exceed such Lender’s Revolving Loan Commitment minus such Lender’s Revolving Loan Percentage of the sum of the Dollar Equivalent of the LC Amount and the LC Obligations.

     1.1.3. Use of Proceeds. The Revolving Credit Loans shall be used solely for (i) the payment of fees and expenses associated with the transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) Borrowers’ general operating capital needs (including Capital Expenditures permitted hereunder) in a manner consistent with the provisions of this Agreement and all applicable laws, (iii) the funding of Permitted Acquisitions, and (iv) other general corporate purposes.

     1.1.4. Swingline Loans. In order to reduce the frequency of transfers of funds from Lenders to Agent for making Revolving Credit Loans and for so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, Agent shall be permitted (but not required) to make Revolving Credit Loans to Borrowers upon request by Borrowers (such Revolving Credit Loans to be designated as “Swingline Loans”) provided that the aggregate amount of Swingline Loans outstanding at any time will not (i) exceed $10,000,000; (ii) when added to the principal amount of Agent’s other Revolving Credit Loans then outstanding plus Agent’s Revolving Loan Percentage of the sum of the Dollar Equivalent of the LC Amount and the LC Obligations, exceed Agent’s Revolving Credit Commitment; or (iii) when added to the principal amount of all other Revolving Credit Loans then outstanding plus the sum of the Dollar Equivalent of the LC Amount and the LC Obligations plus reserves, exceed the Borrowing Base. Within the foregoing limits, each Borrower may borrow, repay and reborrow Swingline Loans. All Swingline Loans shall be treated as Revolving Credit Loans for purposes of this Agreement, except that (a) all Swingline Loans shall be Base Rate

Portions and (b) notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary (other than as set forth in the next succeeding sentence), all principal and interest paid with respect to Swingline Loans shall be for the sole account of Agent in its capacity as the lender of Swingline Loans. Notwithstanding the foregoing, not more than 2 Business Days after (1) Lenders receive notice from Agent that a Swingline Loan has been advanced in respect of a drawing under a Letter of Credit or LC Guaranty or (2) in any other circumstance, demand is made by Agent during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Lender shall irrevocably and unconditionally purchase and receive from Agent, without recourse or warranty from Agent, an undivided interest and participation in each Swingline Loan to the extent of such Lender’s Revolving Loan Percentage thereof, by paying to Agent, in same day funds, an amount equal to such Lender’s Revolving Loan Percentage of such Swingline Loan. Swingline Loans will be settled between the Agent and the Lenders in the manner set forth in subsection 3.1.2 and Agent will settle any interest and principal actually received from Borrowers with any Lender that becomes participant in the Swingline Loan during the continuance of an Event of Default pursuant to immediately preceding sentence on a weekly (or more frequently, as determined by Agent in its sole discretion) basis. For purposes of this Agreement, Swingline Loans shall include any “Swingline Loans” made under the Original Loan Agreement and outstanding on the Closing Date.

     1.1.5. Agent Loans. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Agent, in its sole discretion, may make Revolving Credit Loans on behalf of Lenders, in an aggregate amount not to exceed $5,000,000, if Agent, in its reasonable business judgment, deems that such Revolving Credit Loans are necessary or desirable (i) to protect all or any portion of the Collateral, (ii) to enhance the likelihood, or maximize the amount of, repayment of the Loans and the other Obligations, or (iii) to pay any other amount chargeable to any Borrower pursuant to this Agreement, including without limitation costs, fees and expenses as described in Sections 2.8 and 2.9 (hereinafter, “Agent Loans”); provided, that in no event shall (a) the maximum principal amount of the Revolving Credit Loans plus the Dollar Equivalent of the LC Amount and the LC Obligations exceed the aggregate Revolving Loan Commitments and (b) Majority Lenders may at any time revoke Agent’s authorization to make Agent Loans. Any such revocation must be in writing and shall become effective prospectively upon Agent’s receipt thereof. Each Lender shall be obligated to advance its Revolving Loan Percentage of each Agent Loan. If Agent Loans are made pursuant to the preceding sentence, then (a) the Borrowing Base shall be deemed increased by the amount of such permitted Agent Loans, but only for so long as Agent allows such Agent Loans to be outstanding, and (b) all Lenders that have committed to make Revolving Credit Loans shall be bound to make, or permit to remain outstanding, such Agent Loans based upon their Revolving Loan Percentages in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

     1.1.6. Request for Increase of Revolving Loan Commitments. Lenders agree that Borrowers may, so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and

is continuing, deliver a written notice to Agent and each Lender (an “Increase Notice”) requesting an increase in the Revolving Loan Commitments in a minimum amount of $25,000,000 (a “Requested Revolver Increase”) with an aggregate limit for all Requested Revolver Increases of $100,000,000. Four such Increase Notices may be delivered during the Term and each Increase Notice shall be accompanied with a Compliance Certificate confirming that (i) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and (ii) the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio for the 12 month period ending on the last day of the calendar month that ended most recently prior to the delivery of such Increase Notice, is greater than 1.10 to 1.0. If Borrowers deliver an Increase Notice, each Lender shall have the option to participate in the Requested Revolver Increase upon terms and in amounts determined by Agent by delivering a written notice to Agent and Borrowers within ten Business Days of such Lender’s receipt of the Increase Notice (it being agreed and understood that such Lender shall be deemed to have elected not to participate in the Requested Revolver Increase if it does not respond to the Increase Notice within ten Business Days of its receipt thereof). If one or more Lenders with Revolving Loan Commitments elect not to participate in the Requested Revolver Increase, or if such participation is for less than the full amount of the Requested Revolver Increase, then Agent may, at its option and in its separate capacities as a Lender, elect to participate in such remaining portion of the Requested Revolver Increase or permit one or more existing Lenders to participate in the remaining portion of the Required Revolver Increase. If there is less than full participation by existing Lenders with Revolving Loan Commitments in the Requested Revolver Increase after the foregoing procedures, then one or more new Lenders acceptable to Agent and Borrowers may be added as parties to this Agreement for purposes of participating in such remaining portion; provided, that if any portion of the Requested Revolver Increase remains unfunded after Agent’s and Borrowers’ syndication efforts, the applicable Requested Revolver Increase shall be reduced to an amount equal to the aggregate amount of participations in such Requested Revolver Increase by all existing and new Lenders. After giving effect to the procedures described in this paragraph, each Lender participating in the Requested Revolver Increase shall have its Revolving Loan Commitment increase to the extent of its participation as determined by Agent and, upon the request of such Lender, Borrowers will execute a replacement Revolving Note for such Lender reflecting the increased amount of its Revolving Loan Commitment. Borrowers agree to execute such amendments and supplements to the Loan Documents as Agent reasonably deems necessary in connection with a Requested Revolver Increase and further agree to pay to Lenders a commitment fee and to Agent an arrangement fee to be determined by Agent and Borrowers in connection with the Requested Revolver Increase.

     1.2. Letters of Credit; LC Guaranties.

     1.2.1. Issuance of Letters of Credit and LC Guarantees. Agent agrees, for so long as no Default or Event of Default exists and if requested by a Borrower, to (i) issue its, or cause to be issued by Bank or another Affiliate of Agent, on the date

requested by such Borrower, Letters of Credit (sight drafts only) for the account of a Borrower or (ii) execute LC Guaranties by which Agent, Bank, or another Affiliate of Agent, on the date requested by a Borrower, shall guaranty the payment or performance by a Borrower of its reimbursement obligations with respect to letters of credit issued for a Borrower’s account by other Persons; provided, that (a) the Dollar Equivalent of the LC Amount shall not exceed $15,000,000 at any time and (b) at no time will a Letter of Credit or LC Guaranty be issued if doing so could cause a violation of subsection 1.1.1. Prior to the Closing Date, Bank issued certain letters of credit for the account of one or more Borrowers under the Original Loan Agreement, which Letters of Credit are still outstanding on the Closing Date and are more particularly described on Exhibit 1.2.1 hereto (the “Existing Letters of Credit”). Agent, Lenders and Borrowers hereby agree that the Existing Letters of Credit shall be deemed to be Letters of Credit issued under this Agreement on the Closing Date. No Letter of Credit or LC Guaranty may have an expiration date (a) after the last day of the Term, (b) in the case of standby Letters of Credit or LC Guaranties supporting standby letters of credit, more than 1 year after the issuance date thereof or (c) in the case of documentary Letters of Credit or LC Guaranties supporting documentary letters of credit, more than 180 days after the issuance date thereof.

     1.2.2. Lender Participation. Immediately upon the issuance of a Letter of Credit or an LC Guaranty under this Agreement, each Lender shall be deemed to have irrevocably and unconditionally purchased and received from Agent, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation therein equal to the sum of the Dollar Equivalent of the applicable LC Amount and the applicable LC Obligations multiplied by such Lender’s Revolving Loan Percentage. Agent will notify each Lender on a weekly basis, or if determined by Agent, a more frequent basis, upon presentation to it of a draw under a Letter of Credit or a demand for payment under a LC Guaranty. On a weekly basis, or more frequently if requested by Agent, each Lender shall make payment to Agent in immediately available funds in Dollars, of an amount equal to such Lender’s pro rata share (based on such Lender’s Revolving Loan Percentage) of the amount of any payment made by Agent in respect to any Letter of Credit or LC Guaranty. The obligation of each Lender to reimburse Agent under this subsection 1.2.2 shall be unconditional, continuing, irrevocable and absolute, except in respect of indemnity claims arising out of Agent’s willful misconduct or gross negligence. In the event that any Lender fails to make payment to Agent of any amount due under this subsection 1.2.2, Agent shall be entitled to receive, retain and apply against such obligation the principal and interest otherwise payable to such Lender hereunder until Agent receives such payment from such Lender or such obligation is otherwise fully satisfied; provided, however, that nothing contained in this sentence shall relieve such Lender of its obligation to reimburse the Agent for such amount in accordance with this subsection 1.2.2.

     1.2.3. Reimbursement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Borrowers, Agent and Lenders hereby agree that all LC Obligations and all obligations of each Borrower relating thereto shall be satisfied by the prompt issuance

of one or more Revolving Credit Loans in Dollars that are Base Rate Portions, which Borrowers hereby acknowledge are requested and Lenders hereby agree to fund. In the event that Revolving Credit Loans are not, for any reason, promptly made to satisfy all then existing LC Obligations, each Lender hereby agrees to pay to Agent, on demand, an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent of such LC Obligations multiplied by such Lender’s Revolving Loan Percentage, and until so paid, such amount shall be secured by the Collateral and shall bear interest and be payable at the same rate and in the same manner as Base Rate Portions. In no event shall Agent or any Lender make any Revolving Credit Loan in respect of any Obligation that has already been satisfied by any Borrower.

     1.3. Reallocation of Revolving Loan Commitments.

          Each Borrower and each Lender hereby acknowledges and agrees that on the Closing Date each Lender will each assign portions of its existing Revolving Loan Commitment to and among the various other Lenders, without recourse and without representations or warranties other than that no liens or security interests were created by such Lender on such Lender’s Revolving Loan Commitment, in amounts sufficient to cause each Lender’s respective Revolving Loan Commitment to be the amounts set forth below such Lender’s name on the signature pages to this Agreement.

     1.4. Borrowing Agent.

          For ease of administration of this Agreement, each Borrower other than Wabash hereby appoints Wabash as its borrowing agent hereunder. In such capacity, Wabash will request all Revolving Credit Loans to be made pursuant to Section 1.1, will request all Letters of Credit and LC Guaranties to be issued pursuant to Section 1.2 and will submit all LIBOR Requests with respect to obtaining any LIBOR Portion pursuant to subsection 3.1.7, converting any Base Rate Portion into a LIBOR Portion pursuant to subsection 3.1.8 or continuing any LIBOR Portion into a subsequent Interest Period pursuant to subsection 3.1.9, in each case pursuant to the procedures set forth in Section 3.1. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, no Borrower other than Wabash shall be entitled to directly request any Revolving Credit Loans, Letters of Credit or LC Guaranties or to submit any LIBOR Requests hereunder and such requests shall be directed through Wabash, as borrowing agent hereunder, for any requesting Borrower. The proceeds of all Revolving Credit Loans made hereunder shall be advanced to or at the direction of Wabash and used solely for the purposes described in subsection 1.1.3.

     1.5. Alternate Currencies.

          After the Closing Date, Borrowers may request that Letters of Credit and/or LC Guaranties be issued in any lawful currency other than Dollars that is at such time freely traded in the offshore interbank foreign exchange and foreign deposit market in which Bank customarily funds loans in currencies other than Dollars, by means of a written request received by Agent at least 7 Business Days prior to the issuance date for the Letter of Credit or LC Guaranty. Agent may accept or reject such request in the exercise of its sole discretion

and shall promptly inform Borrowers thereof. If Agent accepts any such request, the currency designated shall be referred to as an “Agreed Alternate Currency”. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any otherwise Agreed Alternate Currency shall automatically cease being an Agreed Alternate Currency at such time that, in Agent’s determination, such currency could not reasonably be converted by Agent into Dollars within 3 Business Days. Upon any draw upon a Letter of Credit or LC Guaranty, the amount of such draw shall be immediately converted into Dollars in the manner provided in Section 1.6. All reserves against Availability relating to the LC Amount or LC Obligations shall be adjusted at a frequency determined by Agent (but no less frequently than monthly) on the basis of a ▇▇▇▇-to-market conversion completed in the manner set forth in Section 1.6.

     1.6. Dollars; Conversion to Dollars.

          Unless otherwise specifically set forth in this Agreement, all monetary amounts shall be in Dollars. All valuations or computations of monetary amounts set forth in this Agreement shall include the Dollar Equivalent of amounts designated in Canadian Dollars or any Agreed Alternate Currency. In connection with all Dollar amounts set forth in this Agreement, all Canadian Dollars or amounts in any Agreed Alternate Currency shall be converted to Dollars in accordance with prevailing exchange rates, as determined by Agent in its sole discretion, on the applicable date.

     1.7. Judgment Currency; Contractual Currency.

     (i) If, for the purpose of obtaining or enforcing judgment against any Borrower or Guarantor or any other party to this Agreement in any court in any jurisdiction, it becomes necessary to convert into any other currency (such other currency being hereinafter in this Section 1.7 referred to as the “Judgment Currency”) an amount due under any Loan Document in any currency (the “Obligation Currency”) other than the Judgment Currency, the conversion shall be made at the rate of exchange prevailing on the Business Day immediately preceding (a) the date of actual payment of the amount due, in the case of any proceeding in the courts of any jurisdiction that will give effect to such conversion being made on such date, or (b) the date on which the judgment is given, in the case of any proceeding in the courts of any other jurisdiction (the applicable date as of which such conversion is made pursuant to this Section 1.7 being hereinafter in this Section 1.7 referred to as the “Judgment Conversion Date”).

     (ii) If, in the case of any proceeding in the court of any jurisdiction referred to in subsection 1.7(i), there is a change in the rate of exchange prevailing between the Judgment Conversion Date and the date of actual receipt for value of the amount due, the applicable Borrower or Guarantor shall pay such additional amount (if any, but in any event not a lesser amount) as may be necessary to ensure that the amount actually received in the Judgment Currency, when converted at the rate of exchange prevailing on the date of payment, will produce the amount of the Obligation Currency which

could have been purchased with the amount of the Judgment Currency stipulated in the judgment or judicial order at the rate of exchange prevailing on the Judgment Conversion Date. Any amount due from a Borrower or Guarantor under this subsection 1.7(ii) shall be due as a separate debt and shall not be affected by judgment being obtained for any other amounts due under or in respect of any of the Documents.

     (iii) The term “rate of exchange” in this Section 1.7 means the rate of exchange at which Agent would, on the relevant date at or about 12:00 noon (Chicago time), be prepared to sell the Obligation Currency against the Judgment Currency.

     (iv) Any amount received or recovered by Agent in respect of any sum expressed to be due to it (whether for itself or as trustee for any other person) from any Borrower or Guarantor of any other party under this Agreement or under any of the other Loan Documents in a currency other than the currency (the “contractual currency”) in which such sum is so expressed to be due (whether as a result of or from the enforcement of, any judgment or order of a court or tribunal of any jurisdiction, the winding-up of a Borrower or Guarantor or otherwise) shall only constitute a discharge of such Borrower or Guarantor to the extent of the amount of the contractual currency that Agent is able, in accordance with its usual practice, to purchase with the amount of the currency so received or recovered on the date of receipt or recovery (or, if later, the first date on which such purchase is practicable). If the amount of the contractual currency so purchased is less than the amount of the contractual currency so expressed to be due, such Borrower or Guarantor shall indemnify Agent against any loss sustained by it as a result, including the cost of making any such purchase.

     1.8. Common Enterprise.

          Wabash is the direct or indirect and beneficial owner and holder of all of the issued and outstanding shares of stock or other equity interests in each other Borrower and Subsidiary Guarantor. Borrowers and Subsidiary Guarantors make up a related organization of various entities constituting a single economic and business enterprise so that Borrowers and Subsidiary Guarantors share a substantial identity of interests such that any benefit received by any one of them benefits the others. Borrowers and certain of the Subsidiary Guarantors render services to or for the benefit of Borrowers and/or the other Subsidiary Guarantors, as the case may be, purchase or sell and supply goods to or from or for the benefit of the others, make loans, advances and provide other financial accommodations to or for the benefit of Borrowers and Subsidiary Guarantors (including inter alia, the payment by Borrowers and Subsidiary Guarantors of creditors of the Borrowers or Subsidiary Guarantors and guarantees by Borrowers and Subsidiary Guarantors of indebtedness of Borrowers and Subsidiary Guarantors and provide administrative, marketing, payroll and management services to or for the benefit of Borrowers and Subsidiary Guarantors). Borrowers and

Subsidiary Guarantors have centralized accounting, common officers and directors and are in certain circumstances, identified to creditors as a single economic and business enterprise.

     1.9. Effect of Amendment and Restatement.

          Upon the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the indebtedness and other liabilities of each Borrower previously governed by the Original Loan Agreement shall continue in full force and effect, but shall be governed by the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement. Such liabilities, together with any and all additional liabilities incurred by each Borrower hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents, shall continue to be secured by, among other things, the Collateral, whether now existing or hereafter acquired and wheresoever located, all as more specifically set forth herein and in the Security Documents. Each Borrower hereby reaffirms its obligations, liabilities, grants of security interests, pledges and the validity of all covenants by such Borrower contained in any and all Security Documents. The execution and delivery of this Agreement shall not constitute a novation or repayment of the indebtedness outstanding under the Original Loan Agreement. Each Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that any and all references in any Loan Documents to the Original Loan Agreement shall be deemed to be amended to refer to this Agreement. Each Borrower hereby reaffirms its obligations, liabilities and indebtedness arising under each of the Loan Documents existing on the date hereof, in each case after giving effect to the provisions of the preceding sentence.

SECTION 2. INTEREST, FEES AND CHARGES

     2.1. Interest.

     2.1.1. Rates of Interest. Interest shall accrue on the principal amount of the Base Rate Portions outstanding at the end of each day at a fluctuating rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin then in effect plus the Base Rate. Said rate of interest shall increase or decrease by an amount equal to any increase or decrease in the Base Rate, effective as of the opening of business on the day that any such change in the Base Rate occurs. If a Borrower exercises its LIBOR Option as provided in Section 3.1, interest shall accrue on the principal amount of the LIBOR Portions outstanding at the end of each day at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin then in effect plus the LIBOR applicable to each LIBOR Portion for the corresponding Interest Period.

     2.1.2. Default Rate of Interest. At the option of Agent or the Majority Lenders, upon and after the occurrence of an Event of Default and during the continuation thereof, the principal amount of all Loans shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to 2.0% plus the interest rate otherwise applicable thereto (the “Default Rate”).

     2.1.3. Maximum Interest. In no event whatsoever shall the aggregate of all amounts deemed interest hereunder or under the Notes and charged or collected pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or pursuant to the Notes exceed the highest

rate permissible under any law which a court of competent jurisdiction shall, in a final determination, deem applicable hereto. If any provisions of this Agreement or the Notes are in contravention of any such law, such provisions shall be deemed amended to conform thereto (the “Maximum Rate”). If at any time, the amount of interest paid hereunder is limited by the Maximum Rate, and the amount at which interest accrues hereunder is subsequently below the Maximum Rate, the rate at which interest accrues hereunder shall remain at the Maximum Rate, until such time as the aggregate interest paid hereunder equals the amount of interest that would have been paid had the Maximum Rate not applied.

     2.2. Computation of Interest and Fees.

plus all normal and customary charges associated with the issuance, processing and administration of each such Letter of Credit or LC Guaranty (which fees and charges shall be fully earned upon issuance, renewal or extension (as the case may be) of each such Letter of Credit or LC Guaranty (or as advised by Agent or Bank), shall be due and payable in arrears on the first Business Day of each month (or as advised by Agent or Bank), and shall not be subject to rebate or proration upon the termination of this Agreement for any reason); provided, that at any time that the Default Rate is in effect, the fee applicable under this subsection shall be equal to the otherwise applicable fee plus 2.00%; and

     2.5. Unused Line Fee.

          Borrowers shall jointly and severally pay to Agent, for the ratable benefit of Lenders and Agent (as lender of the Swingline Loans), a fee (the “Unused Line Fee”) equal to the Applicable Margin per annum for the Unused Line Fee multiplied by the average daily amount by which the Revolving Credit Maximum Amount exceeds the sum of (i) the outstanding principal balance of the Revolving Credit Loans and the Swingline Loans plus (ii) the sum of the Dollar Equivalent of the LC Amount and the LC Obligations; provided, that for purposes of allocating the Unused Line Fee among Lenders (other than Agent), outstanding Swingline Loans shall not be included as part of the outstanding balance of the Loans for purposes of calculating such fees owed to Lenders other than Agent. The Unused Line Fee shall be payable monthly in arrears on the first day of each month hereafter.

     2.6. Intentionally omitted.

     2.7. Audit Fees.

          Borrowers shall jointly and severally pay to Agent commercially reasonable audit fees in accordance with Agent’s current schedule of fees in effect from time to time in connection with audits of the books and records and Properties of each Borrower and its Subsidiaries and such other matters as Agent shall deem appropriate in its reasonable credit judgment, plus all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Agent in connection with such audits, whether such audits are conducted by employees of Agent or by third parties hired by Agent. Such audit fees and out-of-pocket expenses shall be payable on the first day of the month following the date of issuance by Agent of a request for payment thereof to Wabash. Agent may, in its discretion, provide for the payment of such amounts by making appropriate Revolving Credit Loans to one or more Borrowers and charging the appropriate Loan Account or Loan Accounts therefor. So long as no Event of Default is in existence, such audit fees shall not exceed $50,000 in the aggregate in any calendar year.

     2.8. Reimbursement of Expenses.

          If, at any time or times regardless of whether or not an Event of Default then exists, (i) Agent or Arranger incurs reasonable legal or accounting expenses or any other costs or out-of-pocket expenses in connection with (1) the negotiation and preparation of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, any amendment of or modification of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, or any syndication or attempted syndication of the Obligations (including, without limitation, printing and distribution of materials to prospective Lenders and all costs associated with bank meetings, but excluding any closing fees paid to Lenders in connection therewith) or (2) the administration of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby; or (ii) Agent, Arranger or any Lender incurs reasonable legal or accounting expenses or any other costs or out-of-pocket expenses in connection with (1) any litigation, contest, dispute, suit, proceeding or action (whether instituted by Agent, any Lender, any Borrower or any other Person) relating to the Collateral, this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or any Borrower’s, any Subsidiary’s or any Guarantor’s affairs; (2) any amendment, modification, waiver or consent with respect to the Loan Documents requested of any Lender at a time when an Event of Default is in existence; (3) any attempt to enforce any rights of Agent or any Lender against any Borrower or any other Person which may be obligated to Agent or any Lender by virtue of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, including, without limitation, the Account Debtors; or (4) any attempt to inspect, verify, protect, preserve, restore, collect, sell, liquidate or otherwise dispose of or realize upon the Collateral; then all such reasonable legal and accounting expenses, other costs and out of pocket expenses of Agent or any Lender, as applicable, shall be charged to Borrowers on a joint and several basis; provided, that Borrowers shall not be responsible for such expenses, costs and out-of-pocket expenses to the extent incurred because of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Agent, Arranger or such Lender seeking reimbursement. All amounts chargeable to Borrowers under this Section 2.8 shall be Obligations secured by all of the Collateral, shall be payable on demand to Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, and shall bear interest from the date such demand is made until paid in full at the rate applicable to Base Rate Portions from time to time. Borrowers shall also jointly and severally reimburse Agent and Lenders for expenses incurred by Agent in its administration of the Collateral to the extent and in the manner provided in Sections 2.9 and 2.10 hereof.

     2.9. Bank Charges.

          Borrowers shall jointly and severally pay to Agent and each applicable Lender, on demand, any and all fees, costs or expenses which Agent or such Lender pays to a bank or other similar institution arising out of or in connection with (i) the forwarding to any Borrower or any other Person on behalf of any Borrower, by Agent or any Lender, of proceeds of Loans made to any Borrower pursuant to this Agreement and (ii) the depositing for collection by Agent or any Lender of any check or item of payment received or delivered to Agent or any Lender on account of the Obligations.

     2.10. Collateral Protection Expenses; Appraisals; Field Examinations.

          All commercially reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in protecting, storing, warehousing, insuring, handling, maintaining and shipping the Collateral, and any and all excise, property, sales, and use taxes imposed by any state, federal, or local authority on any of the Collateral or in respect of the sale thereof shall be jointly and severally borne and paid by Borrowers. If Borrowers fail to promptly pay any portion thereof when due, Agent may, at its option, but shall not be required to, pay the same and charge one or more Borrowers therefor. On an annual basis, at Borrowers’ joint and several expense, (i) as requested by Agent or Majority Lenders in their reasonable credit judgment or (ii) promptly after any period of 10 consecutive days during which Availability is less than $40,000,000, Agent shall (a) obtain a desk top appraisal of the Inventory, the ▇▇▇▇ and Hold Inventory and the Trailer Inventory of the Companies conducted by an employee of Agent or a third party appraiser reasonably acceptable to Agent or (b) obtain an appraisal of the Inventory, the ▇▇▇▇ and Hold Inventory and the Trailer Inventory of the Companies from a third party appraiser reasonably acceptable to Agent, each of which appraisals shall include an assessment of the net orderly liquidation percentage of each category or type of Inventory, ▇▇▇▇ and Hold Inventory and Trailer Inventory. Additionally, from time to time, if Agent or any Lender determines that obtaining appraisals is necessary in order for it to comply with applicable laws or regulations, and at any time if a Default or an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Agent may, and at the direction of the applicable Lender, Agent shall, at Borrowers’ joint and several expense, obtain appraisals from appraisers (who may be personnel of Agent), stating the then current fair market value of all or any portion of the real Property or personal Property of any Company, including without limitation the Inventory of any Company. Additionally, as requested by Agent or Majority Lenders from time to time upon prior notice and during normal business hours, Agent shall obtain field examinations conducted by an employee of Agent or a third party examiner reasonably acceptable to Agent at Borrowers’ joint and several expense, including all commercially reasonable out-of-pocket expenses and a $850 per day charge per field examiner; provided, however, that if no Event of Default has occurred or is continuing, Borrowers shall only be required to pay for two (2) field examinations annually.

     2.11. Payment of Charges.

          All amounts chargeable to any Borrower under this Agreement shall be Obligations secured by all of the Collateral, shall be, unless specifically otherwise provided, payable on demand and shall bear interest from the date demand was made or such amount is due, as applicable, until paid in full at the rate applicable to Base Rate Portions from time to time.

     2.12. No Deductions.

          Any and all payments or reimbursements made hereunder shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any and all taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect thereto; excluding, however, the following: taxes imposed on the income of Agent or any Lender or franchise taxes by the jurisdiction

under the laws of which Agent or any Lender is organized or doing business or any political subdivision thereof and taxes imposed on its income by the jurisdiction of Agent’s or such Lender’s applicable lending office or any political subdivision thereof or franchise taxes (all such taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings and all liabilities with respect thereto excluding such taxes imposed on net income, herein “Tax Liabilities”). If any Borrower shall be required by law to deduct any such Tax Liabilities from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder to Agent or any Lender, then the sum payable hereunder by Borrowers shall be increased as may be necessary so that, after all required deductions are made, Agent or such Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made.

     2.13. Joint and Several Obligations.

          Each Borrower acknowledges that it is jointly and severally liable for all of the Obligations and as a result hereby unconditionally guaranties the full and prompt payment when due, whether at maturity or earlier, by reason of acceleration or otherwise, and at all times thereafter, of all indebtedness, liabilities and obligations of every kind and nature of each other Borrower to Agent and Lenders and, howsoever created, arising or evidenced, whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, joint or several, now or hereafter existing, or due or to become due, and howsoever owned, held or acquired by Agent or any Lender. Each Borrower agrees that if this guaranty, or any Liens securing this guaranty, would, but for the application of this sentence, be unenforceable under applicable law, this guaranty and each such Lien shall be valid and enforceable to the maximum extent that would not cause this guaranty or such Lien to be unenforceable under applicable law, and this guaranty shall automatically be deemed to have been amended accordingly at all relevant times.

          Each Borrower hereby agrees that its obligations under this guaranty shall be unconditional, irrespective of (a) the validity or enforceability of the Obligations or any part thereof, or of any promissory note or other document evidencing all or any part of the Obligations, (b) the absence of any attempt to collect the Obligations from any other Borrower or any Guarantor or other action to enforce the same, (c) the waiver or consent by Agent or any Lender with respect to any provision of any agreement, instrument or document evidencing or securing all or any part of the Obligations, or any other agreement, instrument or document now or hereafter executed by any other Borrower and delivered to Agent or any Lender (other than a waiver, forgiveness or consent by Agent and Lenders that reduces the amount of any of the Obligations), (d) the failure by Agent or any Lender to take any steps to perfect and maintain its security interest in, or to preserve its rights to, any security or Collateral for the Obligations, for its benefit, (e) Agent’s or any Lender’s election, in any proceeding instituted under the United States Bankruptcy Code or any other similar bankruptcy or insolvency legislation, of the application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the United States Bankruptcy Code or any other similar bankruptcy or insolvency legislation, (f) any borrowing or grant of a security interest by any Borrower as debtor-in-possession, under Section 364 of the United States Bankruptcy Code or any other similar bankruptcy or insolvency legislation, (g) the disallowance, under ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇ ▇▇ ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Bankruptcy Code or any other similar bankruptcy or insolvency legislation, of all or any portion of Agent’s or any Lender’s claim(s) for repayment of the Obligations or (h) any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a borrower or a guarantor.

          Each Borrower hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court in the event of receivership or bankruptcy of any Borrower, protest or notice with respect to the Obligations and all demands whatsoever, and covenants that this guaranty will not be discharged, except by complete and irrevocable payment and performance of the Obligations. No notice to any Borrower or any other party shall be required for Agent or any Lender to make demand hereunder. Such demand shall constitute a mature and liquidated claim against the applicable Borrower. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, Agent or any Lender may, in its sole election, proceed directly and at once, without notice, against all or any Borrower to collect and recover the full amount or any portion of the Obligations, without first proceeding against any other Borrower or any other Person, or any security or collateral for the Obligations. During the existence of an Event of Default, Agent and each Lender shall have the exclusive right to determine the application of payments and credits, if any from any Borrower, any other Person or any security or collateral for the Obligations, on account of the Obligations or of any other liability of any Borrower to Agent or any Lender.

          At any time after and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Agent and each Lender may, in its sole discretion, without notice to any Borrower and regardless of the acceptance of any collateral for the payment hereof, appropriate and apply toward payment of the Obligations (i) any indebtedness due or to become due from Agent or any Lender to such Borrower and (ii) any moneys, credits or other property belonging to such Borrower at any time held by or coming into the possession of Agent or any Lender or any Affiliates thereof, whether for deposit or otherwise.

          Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 2.13, it is the intent of the parties hereto that the liability incurred by each Borrower in respect of the Obligations of the other Borrowers (and any Lien granted by each Borrower to secure such Obligations), not constitute a fraudulent conveyance under Section 548 of the United States Bankruptcy Code or a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer under the provisions of any applicable law of any state or other governmental unit (“Fraudulent Conveyance”). Consequently, each Borrower, Agent and each Lender hereby agree that if a court of competent jurisdiction determines that the incurrence of liability by any Borrower in respect of the Obligations of any other Borrower (or any Liens granted by such Borrower to secure such Obligations) would, but for the application of this sentence, constitute a Fraudulent Conveyance, such liability (and such Liens) shall be valid and enforceable only to the maximum extent that would not cause the same to constitute a Fraudulent Conveyance, and this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall automatically be deemed to have been amended accordingly.

          Each Borrower expressly waives all rights it may have now or in the future under any statute, or at common law, or at law or in equity, or otherwise, to compel Agent or Lenders to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ assets or to proceed in respect of the Obligations guaranteed hereunder against any other Borrower or any Guarantor, any other party or against any security for the

payment and performance of the Obligations before proceeding against, or as a condition to proceeding against, such Borrower. It is agreed among each Borrower, Agent and Lenders that the foregoing waivers are of the essence of the transaction contemplated by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and that, but for the provisions of this Section 2.13 and such waivers, Agent and Lenders would decline to enter into this Agreement.

          Each Borrower agrees that the provisions of this Section 2.13 are for the benefit of Agent and Lenders and their respective successors, transferees, endorsees and assigns, and nothing herein contained shall impair, as between any other Borrower and Agent or Lenders, the obligations of such other Borrower under the Loan Documents.

          Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, and except as set forth in Section 2.13, each Borrower hereby expressly and irrevocably subordinates to payment of the Obligations any and all rights at law or in equity to subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution, indemnification or set off (including those set forth in Section 2.14) and any and all defenses available to a surety, guarantor or accommodation co-obligor until the Obligations are indefeasibly paid in full in cash. Each Borrower acknowledges and agrees that this subordination is intended to benefit Agent and Lenders and shall not limit or otherwise affect such Borrower’s liability hereunder or the enforceability of this Section 2.13, and that Agent, Lenders and their respective successors and assigns are intended third party beneficiaries of the waivers and agreements set forth in this Section 2.13.

          If Agent or any Lender may, under applicable law, proceed to realize its benefits under any of the Loan Documents giving Agent or such Lender a Lien upon any Collateral, whether owned by any Borrower or by any other Person, either by judicial foreclosure or by non-judicial sale or enforcement, Agent or any Lender may, at its sole option, determine which of its remedies or rights it may pursue without affecting any of its rights and remedies under this Section 2.13. If, in the exercise of any of its rights and remedies, Agent or any Lender shall forfeit any of its rights or remedies, including its right to enter a deficiency judgment against any Borrower or any other Person, whether because of any applicable laws pertaining to “election of remedies” or the like, each Borrower hereby consents to such action by Agent or such Lender and waives any claim based upon such action, even if such action by Agent or such Lender shall result in a full or partial loss of any rights of subrogation that each Borrower might otherwise have had but for such action by Agent or such Lender. Any election of remedies that results in the denial or impairment of the right of Agent or any Lender to seek a deficiency judgment against any Borrower shall not impair any other Borrower’s obligation to pay the full amount of the Obligations. In the event Agent or any Lender shall bid at any foreclosure or trustee’s sale or at any private sale permitted by law or the Loan Documents, Agent or such Lender may bid all or less than the amount of the Obligations and the amount of such bid need not be paid by Agent or such Lender but shall be credited against the Obligations. The amount of the successful bid at any such sale, whether Agent, Lender or any other party is the successful bidder, shall be conclusively deemed to be the fair market value of the Collateral and the difference between such bid amount and the remaining balance of the Obligations shall be conclusively deemed

to be the amount of the Obligations guaranteed under this Section 2.13, notwithstanding that any present or future law or court decision or ruling may have the effect of reducing the amount of any deficiency claim to which Agent or any Lender might otherwise be entitled but for such bidding at any such sale.

          The liability of Borrowers under this Section 2.13 is in addition to and shall be cumulative with all liabilities of each Borrower to Agent and Lenders under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which such Borrower is a party or in respect of any Obligations or obligation of the other Borrower, without any limitation as to amount, unless the instrument or agreement evidencing or creating such other liability specifically provides to the contrary.

     2.14. Subrogation and Contribution.

          Each Borrower agrees that if any other Borrower or any Guarantor makes a payment in respect of the Obligations, subject to Section 2.13, it shall be subrogated to the rights of the payees thereof against the other Borrowers and Guarantors with respect to such payment and shall have the rights of contribution set forth below against the other Borrowers and Guarantors. Subject to Section 2.13, each Borrower or Guarantor shall make payments in respect of the Obligations or contribution payments to the other Borrowers and Guarantors such that, taking into account all payments received on account of subrogation or contribution rights: (a) each Borrower or Guarantor shall have repaid at some time after the date hereof all Obligations the benefit of which have been received by it or, if the aggregate of all such repayments would exceed the outstanding Obligations, its pro rata share of the outstanding Obligations, in accordance with the benefit received by it and (b) if there remain Obligations unpaid after application of the payments referred to above, the deficiency shall be shared by Borrowers and Guarantors pro rata in preparation to their respective net worths on the Closing Date.

SECTION 3. LOAN ADMINISTRATION.

     3.1. Manner of Borrowing Revolving Credit Loans/LIBOR Option.

          Borrowings under the credit facility established pursuant to Section 1 hereof shall be as follows:

     3.1.1. Loan Requests. A request for a Revolving Credit Loan shall be made, or shall be deemed to be made, in the following manner: (a) subject to the terms of Section 1.4, Wabash (on behalf of Borrowers) may give Agent notice of its intention to borrow, in which notice Wabash shall specify the amount of the proposed borrowing of a Revolving Credit Loan (which shall be no less than $500,000 or an integral multiple of $100,000) and the proposed borrowing date, which shall be a Business Day, no later than 11:00 a.m. (Chicago, Illinois time) on the proposed borrowing date (or in accordance with subsection 3.1.7, 3.1.8 or 3.1.9, as applicable, in the case of a request for a LIBOR Portion), provided, however, that no such request may be made at a time when there exists a Default or an Event of Default; and (b) the

becoming due of any amount required to be paid under this Agreement, or the Notes, whether as interest or for any other Obligation, shall be deemed irrevocably to be a request by a Borrower for a Revolving Credit Loan on the due date in the amount required to pay such interest or other Obligation.

     3.1.2. Payment by Lenders. Agent shall give to each Lender prompt written notice by facsimile, telex or cable of the receipt by Agent from Wabash of any request for a Revolving Credit Loan. Each such notice shall specify the requested date and amount of such Revolving Credit Loan, whether such Revolving Credit Loan shall be subject to the LIBOR Option, and the amount of each Lender’s advance thereunder (in accordance with its applicable Revolving Loan Percentage). Each Lender shall, not later than 2:00 p.m. (Chicago time) on such requested date, wire to a bank designated by Agent the amount of that Lender’s Revolving Loan Percentage of the requested Revolving Credit Loan. The failure of any Lender to make the Revolving Credit Loans to be made by it shall not release any other Lender of its obligations hereunder to make its Revolving Credit Loan. Neither Agent nor any other Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make the Revolving Credit Loan to be made by such other Lender. The foregoing notwithstanding, Agent, in its sole discretion, may from its own funds make a Revolving Credit Loan on behalf of any Lender. In such event, the Lender on behalf of whom Agent made the Revolving Credit Loan shall reimburse Agent for the amount of such Revolving Credit Loan made on its behalf, on a weekly (or more frequent, as determined by Agent in its sole discretion) basis. In addition, Agent shall notify Lenders on a weekly (or more frequent, as determined by Agent in its sole discretion) basis regarding settlement of the Swingline Loans, and promptly following such notice, each Lender shall reimburse Agent (in accordance with its applicable Revolving Loan Percentage) for the amount of the Swingline Loans outstanding. On each such settlement date, Agent will pay to each Lender the net amount owing to such Lender in connection with such settlement, including without limitation amounts relating to Loans, fees, interest and other amounts payable hereunder. The entire amount of interest attributable to such Revolving Credit Loan or Swingline Loan for the period from the date on which such Revolving Credit Loan or Swingline Loan was made by Agent on such Lender’s behalf until Agent is reimbursed by such Lender, shall be paid to Agent for its own account.

     3.1.3 Disbursement. Each Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes Agent to disburse the proceeds of each Loan requested, or deemed to be requested, pursuant to subsection 3.1.1 as follows: (i) the proceeds of each Revolving Credit Loan requested under subsection 3.1.1(a) shall be disbursed by Agent in lawful money of the United States of America in immediately available funds, in the case of the initial borrowing, in accordance with the terms of the written disbursement letter from Borrowers, and in the case of each subsequent borrowing, by wire transfer to such bank account as may be agreed upon by Borrowers and Agent from time to time or elsewhere if pursuant to a written direction from a Borrower and (ii) the proceeds of each Revolving Credit Loan deemed requested under subsection 3.1.1(b) shall be disbursed

by Agent by way of direct payment of the relevant interest or other Obligation. If at any time any Loan is funded by Agent or Lenders in excess of the amount requested or deemed requested by a Borrower, such Borrower agrees to repay the excess to Agent immediately upon the earlier to occur of (a) such Borrower’s discovery of the error and (b) notice thereof to such Borrower from Agent or any Lender.

     3.1.4. Authorization. Each Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes Agent, in Agent’s sole discretion, to advance to Wabash or another Borrower, and to charge to the appropriate Borrower’s Loan Account hereunder as a Revolving Credit Loan (which shall be a Base Rate Portion), a sum sufficient to pay all interest accrued on the Obligations during the immediately preceding month, to pay all principal due and payable at any time and to pay all fees, costs and expenses and other Obligations at any time owed by each Borrower to Agent, Arranger or any Lender hereunder; provided however that the applicable Borrower shall have 2 Business Days to review and pay expenses related to attorneys’ fees prior to Agent charging the appropriate Borrower’s Loan Account hereunder related thereto.

     3.1.5. Letter of Credit and LC Guaranty Requests. A request for a Letter of Credit or LC Guaranty shall be made in the following manner: Wabash (on behalf of Borrowers) shall give Agent and Bank a written notice of its request for the issuance of a Letter of Credit or LC Guaranty, not later than 11:00 a.m. (Chicago, Illinois time), at least one Business Day before the proposed issuance date thereof, in which notice such Borrower shall specify the proposed issuer, issuance date and format and wording for the Letter of Credit or LC Guaranty being requested (which shall be satisfactory to Agent and the Person being asked to issue such Letter of Credit or LC Guaranty); provided, that no such request may be made at a time when there exists a Default or Event of Default. Such request shall be accompanied by an executed application and reimbursement agreement in form and substance satisfactory to Agent and the Person being asked to issue the Letter of Credit or LC Guaranty, as well as any required corporate resolutions or other documents reasonably requested by Agent or Bank.

     3.1.6. Method of Making Requests. As an accommodation to Borrowers, unless a Default or an Event of Default is then in existence, (i) Agent shall permit telephonic or electronic requests for Revolving Credit Loans to Agent, (ii) Agent and Bank may, in their discretion, permit electronic transmittal of requests for Letters of Credit and LC Guaranties to them, and (iii) Agent may, in Agent’s discretion, permit electronic transmittal of instructions, authorizations, agreements or reports to Agent. Unless a Borrower specifically directs Agent or Bank, as applicable in writing not to accept or act upon telephonic or electronic communications from such Borrower (which direction shall only be applicable to the Persons who have received the same in writing), neither Agent, Bank nor any Lender shall have any liability to any Borrower for any loss or damage suffered by any Borrower as a result of Agent’s or Bank’s honoring of any requests, execution of any instructions, authorizations or agreements or reliance on any reports communicated to it telephonically or electronically and purporting to have been sent to Agent or Bank by any Borrower,

and neither Agent or Bank shall have any duty to verify the origin of any such communication or the authority of the Person sending it. Each telephonic request for a Revolving Credit Loan accepted by Agent or Bank hereunder shall be promptly followed by a written confirmation of such request from the applicable Borrower to Agent and Bank.

     3.1.7. LIBOR Portions. Provided that as of both the date of the LIBOR Request and the first day of the Interest Period, no Default or Event of Default exists, in the event a Borrower desires to obtain a LIBOR Portion, Wabash (on behalf of such Borrower) shall give Agent a LIBOR Request no later than 11:00 a.m. (Chicago, Illinois time) on the third Business Day prior to the requested borrowing date. Each LIBOR Request shall be irrevocable and binding on Borrowers. In no event shall Borrowers be permitted to have outstanding at any one time LIBOR Portions with more than six (6) different Interest Periods.

     3.1.8. Conversion of Base Rate Portions. Provided that as of both the date of the LIBOR Request and the first day of the Interest Period, no Default or Event of Default exists, a Borrower may, on any Business Day, convert any Base Rate Portion of such Borrower into a LIBOR Portion. If a Borrower desires to convert a Base Rate Portion, Wabash (on behalf of such Borrower) shall give Agent a LIBOR Request no later then 11:00 a.m. (Chicago, Illinois time) on the third Business Day prior to the requested conversion date. After giving effect to any conversion of Base Rate Portions to LIBOR Portions, Borrowers shall not be permitted to have outstanding at any one time LIBOR Portions with more than six (6) different Interest Periods.

     3.1.9. Continuation of LIBOR Portions. Provided that as of both the date of the LIBOR Request and the first day of the Interest Period, no Default or Event of Default exists, a Borrower may, on any Business Day, continue any LIBOR Portions of such Borrower into a subsequent Interest Period of the same or a different permitted duration. If a Borrower desires to continue a LIBOR Portion, Wabash (on behalf of such Borrower) shall give Agent a LIBOR Request no later than 11:00 a.m. (Chicago, Illinois time) on the second Business Day prior to the requested continuation date. After giving effect to any continuation of LIBOR Portions, Borrowers shall not be permitted to have outstanding at any one time LIBOR Portions with more than six (6) different Interest Periods. If a Borrower shall fail to give timely notice of its election to continue any LIBOR Portion or portion thereof as provided above, or if such continuation shall not be permitted, such LIBOR Portion or portion thereof, unless such LIBOR Portion shall be repaid, shall automatically be converted into a Base Rate Portion at the end of the Interest Period then in effect with respect to such LIBOR Portion.

     3.1.10. Inability to Make LIBOR Portions. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, if any applicable law, treaty, regulation or directive, or any change therein or in the interpretation or application thereof, shall make it unlawful for any Lender (for purposes of this subsection 3.1.10, the term “Lender” shall include the office or branch where such Lender or any corporation or bank then controlling such

Lender makes or maintains any LIBOR Portions) to make or maintain its LIBOR Portions, or if with respect to any Interest Period, Agent is unable to determine the LIBOR relating thereto, or adverse or unusual conditions in, or changes in applicable law relating to, the London interbank market make it, in the reasonable judgment of Agent, impracticable to fund therein any of the LIBOR Portions, or make the projected LIBOR unreflective of the actual costs of funds therefor to any Lender, the obligation of Agent and Lenders to make or continue LIBOR Portions or convert Base Rate Portions to LIBOR Portions hereunder shall forthwith be suspended during the pendency of such circumstances and the applicable Borrower shall, if any affected LIBOR Portions are then outstanding, promptly upon request from Agent, convert such affected LIBOR Portions into Base Rate Portions.

     3.2. Payments.

          Except where evidenced by Notes issued by one or more Borrowers to any Lender and accepted by such Lender specifically containing payment instructions that are in conflict with this Section 3.2 (in which case the conflicting provisions of said notes or other instruments shall govern and control), the Obligations shall be payable as follows:

     3.2.1. Principal. Principal on account of Revolving Credit Loans shall be payable by Borrowers to Agent for the ratable benefit of Lenders immediately upon the earliest of (i) at all times during a Dominion Period, the receipt by Agent, any Company or any Guarantor of any proceeds of any of the Collateral (except as otherwise provided herein), including without limitation pursuant to subsections 3.3.1 and 6.2.4, to the extent of said proceeds, subject to Borrowers’ rights to reborrow such amounts in compliance with subsection 1.1.1 hereof; (ii) the occurrence of an Event of Default in consequence of which Agent or Majority Lenders elect to accelerate the maturity and payment of the Obligations, (iii) subject to the provisions of subsection 1.1.2, at all times that the calculations set forth in subsection 1.1.1 reflect a negative amount, to the extent of such amount, or (iv) termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 4 hereof; provided, however, that, if an Overadvance shall exist at any time, Borrowers shall, on demand, jointly and severally repay the Overadvance. Each payment (including principal prepayment) on account of principal of the Revolving Credit Loans shall be applied first to Base Rate Portions and then to LIBOR Portions.

     3.2.2. Interest.

     (i) Base Rate Portion. Interest accrued on Base Rate Portions shall be due and payable on the earliest of (1) the first calendar day of each month (for the immediately preceding month), computed through the last calendar day of the preceding month, (2) the occurrence of an Event of Default in consequence of which Agent or Majority Lenders elect to accelerate the maturity and payment of the Obligations or (3) termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 4 hereof.

     (ii) LIBOR Portion. Interest accrued on each LIBOR Portion shall be due and payable on each LIBOR Interest Payment Date and on the earlier of (1) the occurrence of an Event of Default in consequence of which Agent or Majority Lenders elect to accelerate the maturity and payment of the Obligations or (2) termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 4 hereof.

     3.2.3. Costs, Fees and Charges. Costs, fees and charges payable pursuant to this Agreement shall be jointly and severally payable by Borrowers to Agent, as and when provided in Section 2 or Section 3 hereof, as applicable to Agent or a Lender, as applicable, or to any other Person designated by Agent or such Lender in writing.

     3.2.4. Other Obligations. The balance of the Obligations requiring the payment of money, if any, shall be jointly and severally payable by Borrowers to Agent for distribution to Lenders, as appropriate, as and when provided in this Agreement, the Other Agreements or the Security Documents, or on demand, whichever is later.

     3.2.5. Prepayment of/Failure to Borrow LIBOR Portions. Borrowers may prepay a LIBOR Portion only upon at least three (3) Business Days prior written notice to Agent (which notice shall be irrevocable). In the event of (i) the payment of any principal of any LIBOR Portion other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (ii) the conversion of any LIBOR Portion other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, or (iii) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any LIBOR Portion on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto, then, in any such event, Borrowers shall jointly and severally compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event, as determined by such Lender in a manner consistent with its customs and practices.

     3.3. Mandatory and Optional Prepayments.

     3.3.1. Proceeds of Sale, Loss, Destruction or Condemnation of Collateral. Except for proceeds of Collateral received during the existence of a Event of Default (which shall be applied as set forth in subsection 3.4.2), if any Company or any Guarantor sells any of the Collateral or if any of the Collateral is lost, damaged or destroyed or taken by condemnation, the applicable Company or Guarantor shall, unless otherwise agreed by Majority Lenders, pay to Agent for the ratable benefit of Lenders as and when received by such Company or Guarantor and as a mandatory prepayment of the Loans, as herein provided, a sum equal to 100% of the net proceeds (including insurance payments but net of costs and taxes incurred in connection with such sale or event) received by such Company or Guarantor from such sale, loss, damage, destruction or condemnation. In each case, the applicable prepayment shall be applied to reduce the outstanding principal balance of the Revolving Credit Loans, but shall not permanently reduce the Revolving Loan Commitments and thereafter to any outstanding Obligations. In addition, if the Collateral subject to such sale, loss, damage, destruction or condemnation consists of

(a) Eligible Accounts, Eligible Inventory, Eligible ▇▇▇▇ and Hold Inventory or Eligible Trailer Inventory, at all times such prepayment shall be specifically applied against any limits or sublimits contained in the Borrowing Base that are predicated on such Collateral, (b) Eligible Equipment or Eligible Real Property, at all times on or after the Fixed Asset Election Date such prepayment shall be specifically applied against any limits or sublimits contained in the Borrowing Base that are predicated on such Collateral and (c) Equipment or Real Property, at all times prior to the Fixed Asset Election Date such proceeds that (i) exceed $1,000,000 in the aggregate in any calendar year shall reduce dollar for dollar the amount of the Fixed Asset Sublimit and the Maximum Fixed Asset Amount in an amount equal to such excess or (ii) total at least $500,000 with respect to any individual sale or loss, shall reduce dollar for dollar the amount of the Fixed Asset Sublimit and the Maximum Fixed Asset Amount in an amount equal to such sale or loss.

     3.3.2. Intentionally omitted.

     3.3.3. Proceeds from Issuance of Additional Indebtedness. If any Borrower or any Guarantor issues any additional Indebtedness (excluding the New Convertible Note Indebtedness issued in connection with the refinancing of the Convertible Notes pursuant to Section 8.1.16), Borrowers shall jointly and severally pay to Agent for the ratable benefit of Lenders, when and as received by any Borrower or any Guarantor and as a mandatory prepayment of the Obligations, a sum equal to 100% of the net proceeds to such Borrower or such Guarantor of the issuance of such Indebtedness. Any such prepayment shall be applied to reduce the outstanding principal balance of the Revolving Credit Loans, but shall not permanently reduce the Revolving Loan Commitments.

     3.3.4. Proceeds from Issuance of Additional Equity. If any Borrower or any Guarantor issues any additional equity (excluding (i) equity issued upon conversion of the Convertible Notes, (ii) equity issued in respect of a conversion of the New Convertible Note Indebtedness (including, without limitation, with respect to New Convertible Note Derivative Obligations), (iii) equity issued upon exercise of employee and director options or as restricted stock issued under compensatory arrangements with employees, consultants and directors, (iv) equity issued in a stock split, stock dividend or similar capital event not for the purpose of raising cash and (v) equity issued in a business combination not for the purposes of raising cash), Borrowers shall jointly and severally pay to Agent for the ratable benefit of Lenders, when and as received by any Borrower or any Guarantor, and as a mandatory prepayment of the Obligations, a sum equal to 50% of the net proceeds to such Borrower or such Guarantor of the issuance of such equity. Any such prepayment shall be applied to reduce the outstanding principal balance of the Revolving Credit Loans, but shall not permanently reduce the Revolving Loan Commitments.

     3.3.5. Other Mandatory Prepayments. If any Borrower or any Guarantor receives any proceeds from any tax refunds, indemnity payments or pension plan reversions, Borrowers shall jointly and severally pay to Agent for the benefit of

Lenders, when and as received by such Borrower or such Guarantor, and as a mandatory prepayment of the Obligations, a sum equal to 100% of such proceeds of such tax refund, indemnity payment or pension plan reversions. Any such prepayment shall be applied to reduce the outstanding principal balance of the Revolving Credit Loans, but shall not permanently reduce the Revolving Loan Commitments.

     3.3.6. LIBOR Portions. If the application of any payment made in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3.3 at a time when no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing would result in termination of a LIBOR Portion prior to the last day of the Interest Period for such LIBOR Portion, the amount of such prepayment shall not be applied to such LIBOR Portion, but will, at Borrowers’ option, be held by Agent in a non-interest bearing account at a Lender or another bank satisfactory to Agent in its discretion, which account is in the name of Agent and from which account only Agent can make any withdrawal, in each case to be applied as such amount would otherwise have been applied under this Section 3.3 at the earlier to occur of (i) the last day of the relevant Interest Period or (ii) the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default.

     3.3.7. Optional Reductions of Revolving Loan Commitments. Borrowers may, at their option from time to time but not more than once in any 12 month period upon not less than 30 Business Days’ prior written notice to Agent, terminate in whole or permanently reduce ratably in part, the unused portion of the Revolving Loan Commitments, provided, however, that (i) each such partial reduction shall be in an amount of $1,000,000 or integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess thereof and (ii) the aggregate of all optional reductions to the Revolving Credit Commitments may not exceed $25,000,000 during the Term. Except for charges under subsection 3.2.5 applicable to prepayments of LIBOR Portions, such prepayments shall be without premium or penalty.

     3.4. Application of Payments and Collections.

     3.4.1. Collections. All items of payment received by Agent in immediately available funds by 12:00 noon, Chicago, Illinois, time, on any Business Day shall be deemed received on that Business Day. All items of payment received after 12:00 noon, Chicago, Illinois, time, on any Business Day shall be deemed received on the following Business Day. If as the result of collections of Accounts as authorized by subsection 6.2.4 hereof or otherwise, a credit balance exists in the Loan Account, such credit balance shall not accrue interest in favor of Borrowers, but shall be disbursed to a Borrower or otherwise at a Borrower’s direction in the manner set forth in subsection 3.1.3, upon a Borrower’s request at any time, so long as no Default or Event of Default then exists. Agent may at its option, offset such credit balance against any of the Obligations upon and during the continuance of an Event of Default.

     3.4.2. Apportionment, Application and Reversal of Payments. Principal and interest payments shall be apportioned ratably among Lenders (according to the unpaid principal balance of the Loans to which such payments relate held by each Lender). All payments shall be remitted to Agent and all such payments not relating to principal or interest of specific Loans, or not constituting payment of specific fees, and all proceeds of Accounts, or, except as provided in subsection 3.3.1, other Collateral received by Agent, shall be applied, ratably, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, first, to pay any fees, indemnities, or expense reimbursements (other than amounts related to Product Obligations) then due to Agent or Lenders from any Borrower; second, to pay interest due from Borrowers in respect of all Loans, including Swingline Loans and Agent Loans; third, to pay or prepay principal of Swingline Loans and Agent Loans; fourth, to pay or prepay principal of the Revolving Credit Loans (other than Swingline Loans and Agent Loans) and unpaid reimbursement obligations in respect of Letters of Credit; fifth, to pay an amount to Agent equal to all outstanding Letter of Credit Obligations to be held as cash Collateral for such Obligations (in an amount of 105% of the aggregate amount thereof); sixth, to the payment of any other Obligation (other than amounts related to Product Obligations) due to the Agent or any Lender by any Borrower; and seventh, to pay any amounts owing in respect of Product Obligations. As between Agent and Borrowers, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Agent shall have the continuing exclusive right to apply and reapply any and all such payments and collections received at any time or times hereafter by Agent or its agent against the Obligations, in such manner as Agent may deem advisable, notwithstanding any entry by Agent or any Lender upon any of its books and records.

     3.5. All Loans to Constitute One Obligation.

          The Loans, Letters of Credit and LC Guarantees shall constitute one general joint and several Obligation of Borrowers, and shall be secured by Agent’s Lien upon all of the Collateral.

     3.6. Loan Account.

          Agent shall enter all Loans as debits to one or more loan accounts (each, a “Loan Account”) and shall also record in the Loan Account all payments made by or on behalf of each Borrower on any Obligations and all proceeds of Collateral which are finally paid to Agent, and may record therein, in accordance with customary accounting practice, other debits and credits, including interest and all charges and expenses properly chargeable to each Borrower.

     3.7. Statements of Account.

          Agent will account to Borrowers monthly with a statement of Loans, charges and payments made pursuant to this Agreement during the immediately preceding month, and such account rendered by Agent shall be deemed final, binding and conclusive upon Borrowers absent demonstrable error unless Agent is notified by Borrowers in writing to the

contrary within 30 days of the date each accounting is received by Borrowers. Such notice shall only be deemed an objection to those items specifically objected to therein.

     3.8. Increased Costs.

          If any law or any governmental or quasi-governmental rule, regulation, policy, guideline or directive (whether or not having the force of law) adopted or implemented after the date of this Agreement and having general applicability to all banks or finance companies within the jurisdiction in which any Lender operates (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, the effect of and phasing in of capital requirements or other regulations or guidelines passed prior to the date of this Agreement), or any interpretation or application thereof by any governmental authority charged with the interpretation or application thereof, or the compliance of such Lender therewith, shall:

     (i) (1) subject such Lender to any tax with respect to this Agreement (other than (a) any tax based on or measured by net income or otherwise in the nature of a net income tax, including, without limitation, any franchise tax or any similar tax based on capital, net worth or comparable basis for measurement and (b) any tax collected by a withholding on payments and which neither is computed by reference to the net income of the payee nor is in the nature of an advance collection of a tax based on or measured by the net income of the payee) or (2) change the basis of taxation of payments to such Lender of principal, fees, interest or any other amount payable hereunder or under any Loan Documents (other than in respect of (a) any tax based on or measured by net income or otherwise in the nature of a net income tax, including, without limitation, any franchise tax or any similar tax based on capital, net worth or comparable basis for measurement and (b) any tax collected by a withholding on payments and which neither is computed by reference to the net income of the payee nor is in the nature of an advance collection of a tax based on or measured by the net income of the payee);

     (ii) impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve (except any reserve taken into account in the determination of the applicable LIBOR), special deposit, assessment or similar requirement against assets held by, or deposits in or for the account of, advances or loans by, or other credit extended by, any office of such Lender, including (without limitation) pursuant to Regulation D; or

     (iii) impose on such Lender or the London interbank market any other condition with respect to any Loan Document;

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender of making, renewing or maintaining Loans hereunder or the result of any of the foregoing is to reduce the rate of return on such Lender’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder, or the result of any of the foregoing is to reduce the amount of any payment (whether of principal, interest or otherwise) in respect of any of the Loans, then, in any such case,

Borrowers shall jointly and severally pay such Lender, upon demand and certification not later than sixty (60) days following its receipt of notice of the imposition of such increased costs, such additional amount as will compensate such Lender for such additional cost or such reduction, as the case may be, to the extent such Lender has not otherwise been compensated, with respect to a particular Loan, for such increased cost as a result of an increase in the Base Rate or the LIBOR. An officer of the applicable Lender shall determine the amount of such additional cost or reduced amount using reasonable averaging and attribution methods and shall certify the amount of such additional cost or reduced amount to Borrowers, which certification shall include a written explanation of such additional cost or reduction to Borrowers. Such certification shall be conclusive absent manifest error. If a Lender claims any additional cost or reduced amount pursuant to this Section 3.8, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts (consistent with legal and regulatory restrictions) to designate a different lending office or to file any certificate or document reasonably requested by Borrowers if the making of such designation or filing would avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, any such additional cost or reduced amount and would not, in the sole discretion of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender.

     3.9. Basis for Determining Interest Rate Inadequate.

     In the event that Agent or any Lender shall have determined that:

     (i) reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the LIBOR for any Interest Period; or

     (ii) Dollar deposits in the relevant amount and for the relevant maturity are not available in the London interbank market with respect to a proposed LIBOR Portion, or a proposed conversion of a Base Rate Portion into a LIBOR Portion; then

Agent or such Lender shall give Borrowers prompt written, telephonic or electronic notice of the determination of such effect. If such notice is given, (i) any such requested LIBOR Portion shall be made as a Base Rate Portion, unless Borrowers shall notify Agent no later than 11:00 a.m. (Chicago, Illinois time) three (3) Business Days prior to the date of such proposed borrowing that the request for such borrowing shall be canceled or made as an unaffected type of LIBOR Portion, and (ii) any Base Rate Portion which was to have been converted to an affected type of LIBOR Portion shall be continued as or converted into a Base Rate Portion, or, if Borrowers shall notify Agent, no later than 11:00 a.m. (Chicago, Illinois time) three (3) Business Days prior to the proposed conversion, shall be maintained as an unaffected type of LIBOR Portion.

     3.10. Sharing of Payments, Etc.

          If any Lender shall obtain any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set-off, or otherwise) on account of any Loan made by it in excess of its ratable share of payments on account of Loans made by all Lenders, such Lender shall forthwith purchase from each other Lender such participation in such Loan as

shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment ratably with each other Lender; provided, that if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from such purchasing Lender, such purchase from each Lender shall be rescinded and such Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lenders the purchase price to the extent of such recovery, together with an amount equal to such Lender’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such Lender’s required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Lender in respect of the total amount so recovered. Borrowers agree that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another Lender pursuant to this Section 3.10 may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of set-off) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of each Borrower in the amount of such participation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, all purchases and repayments to be made under this Section 3.10 shall be made through Agent.

SECTION 4. TERM AND TERMINATION

     4.1. Term of Agreement.

          Subject to the right of Lenders to cease making Loans to Borrowers during the continuance of any Default or Event of Default, this Agreement shall be in effect from the date hereof through and including March 6, 2012 (the “Term”), unless terminated earlier as provided in Section 4.2 hereof.

     4.2. Termination.

     4.2.1. Termination by Lenders. Agent may, and at the direction of Majority Lenders shall, terminate this Agreement upon notice during the continuance of an Event of Default.

     4.2.2. Termination by Borrowers. Upon at least 30 days’ prior written notice to Agent and Lenders, Borrowers may, at their option, terminate this Agreement; provided, however, no such termination shall be effective until Borrowers have paid or collateralized to Agent’s reasonable satisfaction all of the Obligations in immediately available funds, all Letters of Credit and LC Guaranties have expired, terminated or have been cash collateralized (in an amount equal to 105% of the Dollar Equivalent of the LC Amount) to Agent’s reasonable satisfaction and Borrowers have complied with subsection 3.2.5. Any notice of termination given by Borrowers shall be irrevocable unless all Lenders otherwise agree in writing and no Lender shall have any obligation to make any Loans or issue or procure any Letters of Credit or LC Guaranties on or after the termination date stated in such notice. Without limiting Borrowers’ right to reduce the amount of the Revolving Loan Commitments pursuant to subsection 3.3.7, Borrowers may elect to terminate this Agreement in its entirety only. No section of this Agreement or type of Loan available hereunder may be terminated singly.

     4.2.3. Effect of Termination. All of the Obligations shall be immediately due and payable upon the last day of the Term or the termination date stated in any notice of termination of this Agreement. All undertakings, agreements, covenants, warranties and representations of Borrowers contained in the Loan Documents shall survive any such termination and Agent shall retain its Liens in the Collateral and Agent and each Lender shall retain all of its rights and remedies under the Loan Documents notwithstanding such termination until all Obligations have been discharged or paid, in full, in immediately available funds, including, without limitation, all Obligations under subsection 3.2.5 resulting from such termination. Notwithstanding the foregoing or the payment in full of the Obligations, Agent shall not be required to terminate its Liens in the Collateral unless, with respect to any loss or damage Agent may incur as a result of dishonored checks or other items of payment received by Agent from any Borrower or any Account Debtor and applied to the Obligations, Agent shall, at its option, (i) have received a written agreement satisfactory to Agent, executed by Borrowers and by any Person whose loans or other advances to any Borrower are used in whole or in part to satisfy the Obligations, indemnifying Agent and each Lender from any such loss or damage or (ii) have retained cash Collateral or other Collateral for such period of time as Agent, in its reasonable discretion, may deem necessary to protect Agent and each Lender from any such loss or damage.

          Each Borrower shall execute such instruments, assignments or documents as are necessary to perfect Agent’s Lien upon any of the Collateral and shall take such other action as may be required to perfect or to continue the perfection of Agent’s Lien upon the Collateral. Unless prohibited by applicable law, each Borrower hereby authorizes Agent to execute and file any UCC, PPSA or similar financing statement, including, without limitation, financing statements that indicate the Collateral (i) as all assets of such Borrower or words of similar effect, or (ii) as being of an equal or lesser scope, or with greater or lesser detail, than as set forth in Section 5.1, on such Borrower’s behalf. Each Borrower also hereby ratifies its authorization for Agent to have filed in any jurisdiction any like financing

statements or amendments thereto if filed prior to the date hereof.

At Agent’s request, each Borrower shall also promptly execute or cause to be executed and shall deliver to Agent any and all documents, instruments and agreements deemed necessary by Agent, to give effect to or carry out the terms or intent of the Loan Documents.

The applicable Borrower or Guarantor shall deliver to Agent such other documents as Agent and its counsel may reasonably request relating to the real Property subject to the Mortgages.

SECTION 6. COLLATERAL ADMINISTRATION

     6.1. General.

     6.1.1. Location of Collateral. All Collateral, other than (i) Inventory in transit, (ii) motor vehicles not included in Trailer Inventory or (iii) Collateral in the possession of Agent, will at all times be kept by a Borrower or one of its Subsidiaries at one or more of the business locations set forth in Exhibit 6.1.1 hereto.

     6.1.2. Insurance of Collateral. Borrowers shall maintain and pay for insurance upon all Collateral wherever located and with respect to the business of each Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries, covering casualty, hazard, public liability, workers’ compensation, business interruption and such other risks in such amounts and with such insurance companies as are reasonably satisfactory to Agent. Borrowers shall deliver certified copies of such policies to Agent as promptly as practicable, with satisfactory lender’s loss payable endorsements, naming Agent as a mortgagee, loss payee, assignee or additional insured, as appropriate, as its interest may appear, showing only such other mortgagees, loss payees, assignees and additional insureds (i) as required under contractual arrangements customary to Borrowers’ operations (but not involving Indebtedness for Money Borrowed) or (ii) as otherwise are satisfactory to Agent and with respect to business interruption insurance, an executed collateral assignment thereof. Each policy of insurance or endorsement shall contain a clause requiring the insurer to give not less than 10 days’ prior written notice to Agent in the event of cancellation of the policy for nonpayment of premium and not less than 30 days’ prior written notice to Agent in the event of cancellation of the policy for any other reason whatsoever and a clause specifying that the interest of Agent shall not be impaired or invalidated by any act or neglect of any Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries or the owner of the Property or by the occupation of the premises for purposes more hazardous than are permitted by said policy. All proceeds of business interruption insurance (if any) of each Borrower and its

Subsidiaries shall be remitted to Agent for application to the outstanding balance of the Revolving Credit Loans, but shall not permanently reduce the Revolving Loan Commitments.

     Unless Borrowers provide Agent with evidence of the insurance coverage required by this Agreement, Agent may, but need not, purchase insurance at Borrowers’ joint and several expense to protect Agent’s interests in the Properties of each Borrower and its Subsidiaries. This insurance may, but need not, protect the interests of each Borrower and its Subsidiaries. The coverage that Agent purchases may not pay any claim that a Borrower or any Subsidiary of such Borrower makes or any claim that is made against a Borrower or any such Subsidiary in connection with said Property. Borrowers may later cancel any insurance purchased by Agent, but only after providing Agent with evidence that Borrowers and their Subsidiaries have obtained insurance as required by this Agreement. If Agent purchases insurance, Borrowers will be jointly and severally responsible for the costs of that insurance, including interest and any other charges Agent may impose in connection with the placement of insurance, until the effective date of the cancellation or expiration of the insurance. The costs of the insurance may be added to the Obligations. The costs of the insurance may be more than the cost of insurance that Borrowers and the Subsidiaries may be able to obtain on their own.

     6.1.3. Protection of Collateral. Neither Agent nor any Lender shall be liable or responsible in any way for the safekeeping of any of the Collateral or for any loss or damage thereto (except for reasonable care in the custody thereof while any Collateral is in Agent’s or any Lender’s actual possession) or for any diminution in the value thereof, or for any act or default of any warehouseman, carrier, forwarding agency, or other person whomsoever, but the same shall be at Borrowers’ sole risk.

     6.2. Administration of Accounts.

     6.2.1. Records, Schedules and Assignments of Accounts. Each Company shall keep accurate and complete records of its Accounts and all payments and collections thereon. Concurrently with the delivery of each Borrowing Base Certificate described in subsection 8.1.4, each Company shall deliver to Agent a detailed aged trial balance of all of its Accounts in such form and with such detail as may be reasonably requested by Agent from time to time (“Schedule of Accounts”), and upon Agent’s request therefor, such additional information with respect to such Accounts as Agent shall reasonably request. Concurrently with the delivery of the financial statements to be delivered pursuant to subsection 8.1.3(i), each Company shall deliver to Agent a listing of Account Debtors, showing all names and addresses.

     6.2.2. Intentionally Omitted.

     6.2.3. Account Verification. At any time or times hereafter that Availability is less than $40,000,000 for 10 consecutive days or an Event of Default is in existence, any of Agent’s officers, employees or agents shall have the right, in the

name of Agent, any designee of Agent or a Company, to verify the validity, amount or any other matter relating to any Accounts by mail, telephone, electronic communication or otherwise. Each Company shall cooperate fully with Agent in an effort to facilitate and promptly conclude any such verification process.

     6.2.4. Maintenance of Dominion Account. Each Company shall maintain a Dominion Account or Dominion Accounts pursuant to lockbox and blocked account arrangements acceptable to Agent with Bank and such other banks as may be selected by such Company. Each Company shall obtain the agreement by the applicable banks in favor of Agent to waive any recoupment, setoff rights, and any security interest in, or against, the funds so deposited. Each Company shall issue to any such banks an irrevocable letter of instruction directing (i) such banks located outside Canada to deposit all payments or other remittances received (other than funds in the Excluded Accounts not to exceed $250,000 in the aggregate at any time) to the Dominion Account, and (ii) such banks located in Canada to deposit all payments or other remittances received (“Canadian Deposits”) to the Dominion Account immediately upon the receipt of notice from Agent that a Dominion Period is in effect. All funds deposited in the Dominion Account shall be available to Borrowers at their discretion unless a Dominion Period is in effect. Upon the occurrence of a Dominion Event, Agent may, and at the direction of Majority Lenders Agent shall, send the appropriate notice to Borrowers to commence a Dominion Period. If a Dominion Period is in effect, (a) all Canadian Deposits shall immediately become the property of Agent in the ratable benefit of Lenders and shall immediately be deposited to the Dominion Account and (b) all funds in the Dominion Account shall (I) immediately become the property of Agent, for the ratable benefit of Lenders and (II) be applied on account of the Obligations as provided in subsection 3.2.1. Agent shall have the right to invoke three separate Dominion Periods hereunder; once a third Dominion Period has been commenced, it shall remain in effect until the repayment in full of the Obligations. Agent assumes no responsibility for such lockbox and blocked account arrangements, including, without limitation, any claim of accord and satisfaction or release with respect to deposits accepted by any bank thereunder.

     6.2.5. Collection of Accounts, Proceeds of Collateral. To expedite collection, each Company shall endeavor in the first instance to make collection of its Accounts for Agent. If no Default or Event of Default is in existence, (i) each Company shall directly collect remittances on account of its Accounts owing from retail customers at its branch locations and (ii) each Company agrees that all invoices rendered and other requests made by such Company for payment in respect of Accounts other than retail Accounts shall contain a written statement directing payment in respect of such Accounts to be paid to a lockbox established pursuant to subsection 6.2.4. All remittances received by each Company on account of Accounts, together with the proceeds of any other Collateral, shall be held as Agent’s property, for its benefit and the benefit of Lenders, by such Company as trustee of an express trust for Agent’s benefit and such Company shall immediately deposit same in kind in a blocked account or in the Dominion Account. Upon the occurrence of a Default or

an Event of Default, each Company agrees that all Accounts (including retail Accounts) shall be collected by payment to a lockbox in the manner described in clause (ii) above. Agent retains the right at all times after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default or an Event of Default to notify Account Debtors that each Company’s Accounts have been assigned to Agent and to collect each Company’s Accounts directly in its own name, or in the name of Agent’s agent, and to charge the collection costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees, jointly and severally to Borrowers.

     6.2.6. Taxes. If an Account includes a charge for any tax payable to any governmental taxing authority, Agent is authorized, in its sole discretion, to pay the amount thereof to the proper taxing authority for the account of any Borrower and to charge any Borrower therefor, except for taxes that (i) are being actively contested in good faith and by appropriate proceedings and with respect to which the applicable Company maintains reasonable reserves on its books therefor and (ii) would not reasonably be expected to result in any Lien other than a Permitted Lien. In no event shall Agent or any Lender be liable for any taxes to any governmental taxing authority that may be due by any Company.

     6.3. Administration of Inventory.

     6.3.1. Recordkeeping; Physicals. Each Company shall keep separate records of its Inventory, Trailer Inventory and ▇▇▇▇ and Hold Inventory, which records shall be complete and accurate and complete in all material respects. Borrowers shall furnish to Agent separate Inventory, Trailer Inventory and ▇▇▇▇ and Hold Inventory reports for each Company concurrently with the delivery of each Borrowing Base Certificate described in subsection 8.1.4, which reports will be in such other format and detail as Agent shall reasonably request. Each Company shall conduct a physical inventory no less frequently than annually (or, if an Event of Default is in existence, quarterly if so requested by Agent), and, in each case, shall provide to Agent a report based on each such physical inventory promptly thereafter, together with such supporting information as Agent shall reasonably request.

     6.3.2. [Intentionally Omitted].

     6.3.3. Vehicle Titles. Each Borrower that maintains Trailer Inventory shall at all times maintain in place its current system for processing and safekeeping of certificates of title for used trailers constituting part of the Trailer Inventory.

No event or condition has occurred or is occurring with respect to any Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries relating to any Environmental Law, any Hazardous Materials, or any investigation, notice, notice of violation, claim, action, suit, proceeding, demand, abatement order or other order or directive by any governmental authority or any other person relating to any Environmental Law or Hazardous Materials, which individually or in the aggregate has had or could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Compliance with all requirements under current Environmental Laws or pending federal and/or state environmental laws and regulations, will not, individually or in the aggregate, have a reasonable possibility of giving rise to a Material Adverse Effect.

Neither any Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries is an “investment company” or an “affiliated person” of, or “promoter” or “principal underwriter” for, an “investment company,” as such terms are defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940. Neither any Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries is subject to regulation under the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935, the Federal Power Act, or any other federal or state statute that restricts or limits its ability to incur Indebtedness or to perform its obligations hereunder. The making of the Loans by Lenders to Borrowers, the incurrence of the LC Obligations on behalf of Borrowers, the application of the proceeds thereof and payment thereof will not violate any provision of any such statute or any rule, regulation or order issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission.

     7.1.29. Margin Regulations. Neither any Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries is engaged, principally or as one of its important activities, in the business of extending credit for the purpose of “purchasing” or “carrying” and “margin stock” as such terms are defined in Regulation U of the Federal Reserve Board as now and from time to time hereafter in effect (such securities being referred to herein as “Margin Stock”). Neither any Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries owns any Margin Stock, and none of the proceeds of the Loans or other extensions of credit under this Agreement will be used, directly or indirectly, for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any Margin Stock, for the purpose of reducing or retiring any Indebtedness that was originally incurred to purchase or carry any Margin Stock or for any other purpose that might cause any of the Loans or other extensions of credit under this Agreement to be considered a “purpose credit” within the meaning of Regulations T, U or X of the Federal Reserve Board. Neither any Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries will take or permit to be taken any action that might cause any Loan Document to violate any regulation of the Federal Reserve Board.

     7.1.30. Wind Down Subsidiaries. As of the Closing Date, Borrowers are in the process of winding down the business and operations of each of the Wind Down Subsidiaries.

     7.1.31. Vehicles. Each Borrower or Guarantor that at any time holds title to any used vehicles returned to it on a trade-in basis or otherwise is primarily in the business of selling new and used vehicles.

Neither any Borrower nor any Subsidiary has any ongoing funding obligations (contingent or otherwise) in respect of any such Joint Venture.

     7.1.33. Anti-Terrorism Laws. None of the Borrowers or their Subsidiaries or, to the knowledge of the Borrowers or their Subsidiaries, any of their Affiliates is in violation of any laws relating to terrorism or money laundering (“Anti-Terrorism Laws”), including Executive Order No. 13224 on Terrorist Financing, effective September 24, 2001 (the “Executive Order”), and the Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act of 2001, Public Law 107-56, signed into law October 26, 2001 (the “USA Patriot Act”). None of the Borrowers or their Subsidiaries or, to the knowledge of the Borrowers or their Subsidiaries, any of their Affiliates or brokers or other agents of is, acting or benefiting in any capacity in connection with any Loans hereunder is any of the following:

     (i) a person that is listed in the annex to, or is otherwise subject to the provisions of, the Executive Order;

     (ii) a person owned or controlled by, or acting for or on behalf of, any person that is listed in the annex to, or is otherwise subject to the provisions of, the Executive Order;

     (iii) person with which any Lender is prohibited from dealing or otherwise engaging in any transaction by any Anti-Terrorism Law;

     (iv) a person that commits, threatens or conspires to commit or supports “terrorism” as defined in the Executive Order; or

     (v) a person that is named as a “specially designated national and blocked person” on the most current list published by the USA Treasury Department Office of Foreign Assets Control (“OFAC”) at its official website or any replacement website or other replacement official publication of such list.

To each of their respective knowledge, no Borrower or any of their Subsidiaries or, to the knowledge of the Borrowers or their Subsidiaries, any broker or other agent of the Borrowers or any of their Subsidiaries, is acting in any capacity in connection with any Loans hereunder (i) conducts any business or engages in making or receiving any contribution of funds, goods or services to or for the benefit of any person described in paragraph (b) above, (ii) deals in, or otherwise engages in any transaction relating to, any property or interests in property blocked pursuant to the Executive Order, or (iii) engages in or conspires to engage in any transaction that evades or avoids, or has the purpose of evading or avoiding, or attempts to violate, any of the prohibitions set forth in any Anti-Terrorism Law.

     7.2. Continuous Nature of Representations and Warranties.

          Each representation and warranty contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be deemed to have been remade at the time of each request for a Loan, Letter of Credit or LC Guaranty hereunder and at the time that any Loan is deemed to have been made under subsection 3.1.1. Each such request for a Loan, Letter of Credit or LC Guaranty (and the making of any Loan deemed to have been made under subsection 3.1.1) shall constitute a representation by Borrowers that such representations and warranties remain accurate, complete and not misleading at such time, except to the extent that such representations and warranties relate solely to an earlier date and except for changes in the nature of a Borrower’s or one of such Borrower’s Subsidiary’s business or operations that would render the information in any exhibit attached hereto or to any other Loan Document either inaccurate, incomplete or misleading, so long as Majority Lenders have consented to such changes or such changes are expressly permitted by this Agreement.

     7.3. Survival of Representations and Warranties.

          All representations and warranties of each Borrower contained in this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents shall survive the execution, delivery and acceptance thereof by Agent and each Lender and the parties thereto and the closing of the transactions described therein or related thereto.

     10.3.2. The right to take immediate possession of the Collateral, and to (i) require each Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries to assemble the Collateral, at Borrower’s joint and several expense, and make it available to Agent at a place designated by Agent which is reasonably convenient to both parties, and (ii) enter any premises where any of the Collateral shall be located and to keep and store the Collateral on said premises until sold (and if said premises be the Property of any Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, such Borrower agrees not to charge, or permit such Subsidiary to charge, Agent for storage thereof).

     10.3.3. The right to sell or otherwise dispose of all or any Collateral in its then condition, or after any further manufacturing or processing thereof, at public or private sale or sales, with such notice as may be required by law, in lots or in bulk, for cash or on credit, all as Agent, in its sole discretion, may deem advisable.

Each Borrower agrees that 10 days’ written notice to such Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries of any public or private sale or other disposition of Collateral shall be reasonable notice thereof, and such sale shall be at such locations as Agent may designate in said notice. Agent shall have the right to conduct such sales on any Borrower’s or any of its Subsidiaries’ premises, without charge therefor, and such sales may be adjourned from time to time in accordance with applicable law. Agent shall have the right to sell, lease or otherwise dispose of the Collateral, or any part thereof, for cash, credit or any combination thereof, and

Agent, on behalf of Lenders, may purchase all or any part of the Collateral at public or, if permitted by law, private sale and, in lieu of actual payment of such purchase price, may set off the amount of such price against the Obligations. The proceeds realized from the sale of any Collateral shall be applied, after allowing 2 Business Days for collection, in the manner provided in subsection 3.4.2. If any deficiency shall arise, each Borrower and each Guarantor shall remain jointly and severally liable to Agent and Lenders therefor.

     10.3.4. Agent is hereby granted a license or other right to use, without charge, each Borrower’s and each of its Subsidiaries’ labels, patents, copyrights, licenses, rights of use of any name, trade secrets, tradenames, trademarks and advertising matter, or any Property of a similar nature, as it pertains to the Collateral, in completing, advertising for sale and selling any Collateral and each Borrower’s and each of its Subsidiaries’ rights under all licenses and all franchise agreements shall inure to Agent’s benefit.

     10.3.5. Agent may, at its option, require Borrowers to deposit with Agent funds equal to 105% of the Dollar Equivalent of the LC Amount and, if Borrowers fail to promptly make such deposit, Agent may advance such amount as a Revolving Credit Loan (whether or not an Overadvance is created thereby). Each such Revolving Credit Loan shall be secured by all of the Collateral and shall constitute a Base Rate Portion. Any such deposit or advance shall be held by Agent as a reserve to fund future payments on such LC Guaranties and future drawings against such Letters of Credit. At such time as all LC Guaranties have been paid or terminated and all Letters of Credit have been drawn upon or expired, any amounts remaining in such reserve shall be applied against any outstanding Obligations, or, if all Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full, returned to Borrowers.

     10.3.6. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document to the contrary, Agent shall not take any action to foreclose upon, acquire or take possession of or occupy, or exercise any remedies by which it will take title or otherwise come into ownership in respect of Collateral consisting of real Property listed on Exhibit 10.3.6 (the “Affected Collateral”) or purchase or otherwise acquire (including in lieu of actual payment of a purchase price) any stock or other equity interest in any Company or other Person that owns the Affected Collateral unless and until (i) Lenders have obtained, at Borrowers’ joint and several expense, a Phase II environmental site assessment with respect to the Affected Collateral, prepared by an environmental consultant reasonably acceptable to Lenders and (ii) each Lender has confirmed that no remediation is required by such Lender or that any remediation has been completed to the satisfaction of such Lender with respect to the Affected Collateral.

          10.4. Set Off and Sharing of Payments.

          In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under applicable law and not by way of limitation of any such rights, during the continuance of any Event of Default, each

Lender is hereby authorized by each Borrower at any time or from time to time, with prior written consent of Agent and with reasonably prompt subsequent notice to such Borrower (any prior or contemporaneous notice to such Borrower being hereby expressly waived) to set off and to appropriate and to apply any and all (i) balances held by such Lender at any of its offices for the account of such Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (regardless of whether such balances are then due to such Borrower or its Subsidiaries), and (ii) other property at any time held or owing by such Lender to or for the credit or for the account of such Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, against and on account of any of the Obligations. Any Lender exercising a right to set off shall, to the extent the amount of any such set off exceeds its Revolving Loan Percentage of the amount set off, purchase for cash (and the other Lenders shall sell) interests in each such other Lender’s pro rata share of the Obligations as would be necessary to cause such Lender to share such excess with each other Lender in accordance with their respective Revolving Loan Percentages. Each Borrower agrees, to the fullest extent permitted by law, that any Lender may exercise its right to set off with respect to amounts in excess of its pro rata share of the Obligations and upon doing so shall deliver such excess to Agent for the benefit of all Lenders in accordance with the Revolving Loan Percentages.

          10.5. Remedies Cumulative; No Waiver.

          All covenants, conditions, provisions, warranties, guaranties, indemnities, and other undertakings of each Borrower contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, or in any document referred to herein or contained in any agreement supplementary hereto or in any schedule or in any Guaranty Agreement given to Agent or any Lender or contained in any other agreement between any Lender and such Borrower or between Agent and such Borrower, heretofore, concurrently, or hereafter entered into, shall be deemed cumulative to and not in derogation or substitution of any of the terms, covenants, conditions, or agreements of such Borrower herein contained. The failure or delay of Agent or any Lender to require strict performance by any Borrower of any provision of this Agreement or to exercise or enforce any rights, Liens, powers, or remedies hereunder or under any of the aforesaid agreements or other documents or security or Collateral shall not operate as a waiver of such performance, Liens, rights, powers and remedies, but all such requirements, Liens, rights, powers, and remedies shall continue in full force and effect until all Loans and other Obligations owing or to become owing from such Borrower to Agent and each Lender have been fully satisfied. None of the undertakings, agreements, warranties, covenants and representations of any Borrower contained in this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents and no Default or Event of Default by any Borrower under this Agreement or any other Loan Documents shall be deemed to have been suspended or waived by Lenders, unless such suspension or waiver is by an instrument in writing specifying such suspension or waiver and is signed by a duly authorized representative of Agent and directed to Borrowers.

          Each Lender hereby appoints and authorizes Agent to take such action on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as are delegated to Agent by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Each Lender hereby acknowledges that Agent shall not have by reason of this Agreement assumed a fiduciary relationship in respect of any Lender. In performing its functions and duties under this Agreement, Agent shall act solely as agent of Lenders and shall not assume, or be deemed to have assumed, any obligation toward, or relationship of agency or trust with or for, any Borrower. As to any matters not expressly provided for by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including without limitation enforcement and collection of the Notes), Agent may, but 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 refraining from acting) upon the instructions of the Majority Lenders, whenever such instruction shall be requested by Agent or required hereunder, or a greater or lesser number of Lenders if so required hereunder, and such instructions shall be binding upon all Lenders; provided, that Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action which exposes Agent to any liability or which is contrary to this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or applicable law, unless Agent is indemnified to its satisfaction by the other Lenders against any and all liability and expense which it may incur by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. If Agent seeks the consent or approval of the Majority Lenders (or a greater or lesser number of Lenders as required in this Agreement), with respect to any action hereunder, Agent shall send notice thereof to each Lender and shall notify each Lender at any time that the Majority Lenders (or such greater or lesser number of Lenders) have instructed Agent to act or refrain from acting pursuant hereto.

          11.2. Agent’s Reliance, Etc.

          Neither Agent, any Affiliate of Agent, nor any of their respective 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 or the other Loan Documents, except for its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limitation of the generality of the foregoing, Agent: (i) may treat each Lender party hereto as the holder of Obligations until Agent receives written notice of the assignment or transfer of such Lender’s portion of the Obligations signed by such Lender and in form reasonably satisfactory to Agent; (ii) 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 in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts, (iii) makes no warranties or representations to any Lender and shall not be responsible to any Lender for any recitals, statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Documents; (iv) shall not have any duty beyond Agent’s customary practices in respect of loans in which Agent is the only lender to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Agreement or

the other Loan Documents on the part of any Borrower, to inspect the property (including the books and records) of any Borrower, to monitor the financial condition of any Borrower or to ascertain the existence or possible existence or continuation of any Default or Event of Default; (v) shall not be responsible to any Lender for the due execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto or thereto; (vi) shall not be liable to any Lender for any action taken, or inaction, by Agent upon the instructions of Majority Lenders pursuant to Section 11.1 hereof or refraining to take any action pending such instructions; (vii) shall not be liable for any apportionment or distributions of payments made by it in good faith pursuant to Section 3 hereof; (viii) shall incur no liability under or in respect of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents by acting upon any notice, consent, certificate, message or other instrument or writing (which may be by telephone, facsimile, telegram, cable or telex) believed in good faith by it to be genuine and signed or sent by the proper party or parties; and (ix) may assume that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, unless Agent has actual knowledge of the Event of Default, has received notice from a Borrower or a Borrower’s independent certified public accountants stating the nature of the Event of Default, or has received notice from a Lender stating the nature of the Event of Default and that such Lender considers the Event of Default to have occurred and to be continuing. In the event any apportionment or distribution described in clause (vii) above is determined to have been made in error, the sole recourse of any Person to whom payment was due but not made shall be to recover from the recipients of such payments any payment in excess of the amount to which they are determined to have been entitled.

          11.3. Bank of America and Affiliates.

          With respect to its commitment hereunder to make Loans, Bank of America shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not Agent; and the terms “Lender,” “Lenders” or “Majority Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated, include Bank of America in its individual capacity as a Lender. Bank of America and its Affiliates may lend money to, and generally engage in any kind of business with, each Borrower, and any Person who may do business with or own Securities of each Borrower all as if Bank of America were not Agent and without any duty to account therefor to any other Lender.

          11.4. Lender Credit Decision.

          Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon Agent or any other Lender and based on the financial statements referred to herein and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement. Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility, either initially or on an ongoing basis, to provide any Lender with any credit or other similar information regarding any Borrower.

          11.5. Indemnification.

          Lenders agree to indemnify Agent and Arranger (to the extent not reimbursed by Borrowers or Guarantors), in accordance with their respective Aggregate Percentages, 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 Agent or Arranger in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any action taken or omitted by Agent or Arranger under this Agreement; provided, that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from Agent’s or Arranger’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender agrees to reimburse Agent and Arranger promptly upon demand for its ratable share, as set forth above, of any out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by Agent or Arranger in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiation, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement and each other Loan Document, to the extent that Agent or Arranger, as applicable, is not reimbursed for such expenses by Borrowers. The obligations of Lenders under this Section 11.5 shall survive the payment in full of all Obligations and the termination of this Agreement. If after payment and distribution of any amount by Agent to Lenders, any Lender or any other Person, including any Borrower, any creditor of any Borrower, a liquidator, administrator or trustee in bankruptcy, recovers from Agent or Arranger any amount found to have been wrongfully paid to Agent or Arranger or disbursed by Agent or Arranger to Lenders, then Lenders, in accordance with their respective Aggregate Percentages, shall reimburse Agent or Arranger, as applicable, for all such amounts.

          11.6. Rights and Remedies to be Exercised by Agent Only.

          Each Lender agrees that, except as set forth in Section 10.4, no Lender shall have any right individually (i) to realize upon the security created by this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) to enforce any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or (iii) to make demand for payment by any Borrower under this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

          11.7. Agency Provisions Relating to Collateral.

          Each Lender authorizes and ratifies Agent’s entry into this Agreement and the Security Documents for the benefit of Lenders. Each Lender agrees that any action taken by Agent with respect to the Collateral in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or the Security Documents, and the exercise by Agent of the powers set forth herein or therein, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be authorized and binding upon all Lenders. Agent is hereby authorized on behalf of all Lenders, without the

necessity of any notice to or further consent from any Lender to take any action with respect to any Collateral or the Loan Documents which may be necessary to perfect and maintain perfected Agent’s Liens upon the Collateral, for its benefit and the ratable benefit of Lenders. Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize Agent, at its option and in its discretion, to release any Lien granted to or held by Agent upon any Collateral (i) upon termination of the Agreement and payment and satisfaction of all Obligations; or (ii) constituting property being sold or disposed of in compliance with subsection 8.2.9 hereof and if Borrowers certify to Agent that the sale or disposition is made in compliance with subsection 8.2.9 hereof, as it may be amended from time to time in accordance with the provisions of Section 11.10 (and Agent may rely conclusively on any such certificate, without further inquiry); or (iii) constituting property in which no Borrower owned any interest at the time the Lien was granted or at any time thereafter; or (iv) in connection with any foreclosure sale or other disposition of Collateral after the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default or (v) if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by Agent at the direction of all Lenders. Upon request by Agent at any time, Lenders will confirm in writing Agent’s authority to release particular types or items of Collateral pursuant hereto. Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to any Lender or to any other Person to assure that the Collateral exists or is owned by any Borrower or is cared for, protected or insured or has been encumbered or that the Liens granted to Agent herein or pursuant to the Security Documents have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected or enforced or are entitled to any particular priority, or to exercise at all or in any particular manner or under any duty of care, disclosure or fidelity, or to continue exercising, any of its rights, authorities and powers granted or available to Agent in this Section 11.7 or in any of the Loan Documents, it being understood and agreed that in respect of the Collateral, or any act, omission or event related thereto, Agent may act in any manner it may deem appropriate, in its sole discretion, but consistent with the provisions of this Agreement, including given Agent’s own interest in the Collateral as a Lender and that Agent shall have no duty or liability whatsoever to any Lender.

          11.8. Agent’s Right to Purchase Commitments.
