Each Lender shall be obligated to participate in each request for Revolving Credit Loans pursuant to Section 2.05 [Revolving Credit Loan Requests] in accordance with its Ratable Share. The aggregate of each Lender’s Revolving Credit Loans outstanding hereunder to the Borrower at any time shall never exceed its Revolving Credit Commitment minus its Ratable Share of the Letters of Credit Outstanding and minus its Ratable Share of Swing Loans outstanding. The obligations of each Lender hereunder are several. The failure of any Lender to perform its obligations hereunder shall not affect the Obligations of the Borrower to any other party nor shall any other party be liable for the failure of such Lender to perform its obligations hereunder. The Lenders shall have no obligation to make Revolving Credit Loans hereunder on or after the Expiration Date.

     Section 2.03 Utilization Fee. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Agent for the account of each Lender, a nonrefundable utilization fee (the “Utilization Fee”) at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Utilization Fee Rate (computed on the basis of a year of 360 days for the actual days elapsed) on such Lender’s Ratable Share of the Revolving Facility Usage (excluding Documentary Letters of Credit but specifically including Standby Letters of Credit) for each day on which the Revolving Facility Usage (excluding, however, Documentary Letters of Credit but specifically including Standby Letters of Credit) exceeds fifty percent (50%) of the total amount of the Revolving Credit Commitments (and including each day on which Loans or any Letter of Credit remain outstanding after the Commitments shall have expired or been terminated). All such Utilization Fees shall be payable in arrears on the last Business Day of each January, April, July, and October after the date hereof and on the Expiration Date or upon acceleration of the Loan and thereafter on demand.

     Section 2.04 Revolving Credit Facility Fee. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Agent for the account of each Lender, as consideration for such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment, a nonrefundable facility fee (the “Facility Fees”)which shall accrue at the Applicable Facility Fee Rate (computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and actual days elapsed) on the daily amount of such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment (whether used or unused) during the period from and including the Closing Date to the date on which such Revolving Credit Commitment terminates. Accrued facility fees shall be payable in arrears on the last Business Day of each January, April, July, and October after the date hereof and on the date on which such Revolving Credit Commitment terminates.

     Section 2.05 Revolving Credit Loan Requests; Swing Loan Requests.

          (a) Revolving Credit Loan Requests. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Borrower may from time to time prior to the Expiration Date request the Lenders to make Revolving Credit Loans, or renew or convert the Interest Rate Option applicable to existing Revolving Credit Loans pursuant to Section 3.02 [Interest Periods], by delivering to the Agent, not later than 10:00 a.m., Cleveland time, (i) three (3) Business Days prior to the proposed Borrowing Date with respect to the making of Revolving Credit Loans to which the LIBOR Option applies or the conversion to or the renewal of the LIBOR Option for any Loans, and (ii) on the proposed Borrowing Date with respect to the making of Revolving Credit Loans to which the Base Rate Option applies or on the last day of the preceding Interest Period with respect to the conversion to the Base Rate Option for any Loan then subject to the LIBOR Option, of a duly completed request therefor substantially in the form of Exhibit 2.05(A) or a request by telephone immediately confirmed in writing by letter, facsimile or telex in such form (each, a “Loan

Request”), it being understood that the Agent may rely on the authority of any individual making such a telephonic request without the necessity of receipt of such written confirmation. Each Loan Request shall be irrevocable and shall specify (i) the proposed Borrowing Date; (ii) the aggregate amount of the proposed Loans comprising each Borrowing Tranche, which shall be in integral multiples of $500,000 and not less than $2,500,000 for each Borrowing Tranche to which the LIBOR Option applies and integral multiples of $500,000 and not less than the lesser of $1,000,000 or the maximum amount available for Borrowing Tranches to which the Base Rate Option applies; (iii) whether the LIBOR Option or Base Rate Option shall apply to the proposed Loans comprising the applicable Borrowing Tranche; and (iv) in the case of a Borrowing Tranche to which the LIBOR Option applies, an appropriate Interest Period for the Loans comprising such Borrowing Tranche.

          (b) Swing Loan Requests. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Borrower may from time to time prior to the Expiration Date request Swing Loan Bank to make Swing Loans by delivery to Swing Loan Bank, with a copy to the Agent, not later than 10:00 a.m., Cleveland time, on the proposed Borrowing Date of a duly completed request therefor substantially in the form of Exhibit 2.05(B) hereto or a request by telephone immediately confirmed in writing by letter, facsimile or telex (each, a “Swing Loan Request”), it being understood that the Swing Loan Bank and Agent may rely on the authority of any individual making such a telephonic request without the necessity of receipt of such written confirmation. Each Swing Loan Request shall be irrevocable and shall specify the proposed Borrowing Date and the principal amount of such Swing Loan, which shall be an integral multiple of $500,000.

     Section 2.06 Making Revolving Credit Loans and Swing Loans.

          (a) Making Revolving Credit Loans. The Agent shall, promptly after receipt by it of a Loan Request pursuant to Section 2.05, notify the Lenders of its receipt of such Loan Request specifying: (i) the proposed Borrowing Date and the time and method of disbursement of the Revolving Credit Loans requested thereby; (ii) the amount and type of each such Revolving Credit Loan and the applicable Interest Period (if any); and (iii) the apportionment among the lenders of such Revolving Credit Loans as determined by the Agent in accordance with Section 2.02 [Nature of Lenders’ Obligations]. Each Lender shall remit the principal amount of each Revolving Credit Loan to the Agent such that the Agent is able to, and the Agent shall, to the extent the Lenders have made funds available to it for such purpose and subject to Section 6.2 [Each Additional Loan], fund such Revolving Credit Loans to the Borrower in U.S. Dollars and immediately available funds at the Principal Office prior to 2:00 p.m. Cleveland time on the applicable Borrowing Date, provided that if any Lender fails to remit such funds to the Agent in a timely manner, the Agent may elect in its sole discretion to fund with its own funds the Revolving Credit Loans of such Lender on such Borrowing Date, and such Lender shall be subject to the repayment obligation in Section 9.16 [Availability of Funds].

          (b) Making Swing Loans. So long as Swing Loan Bank elects to make Swing Loans, Swing Loan Bank shall, after receipt by it of a Swing Loan Request pursuant to Section 2.05(b), fund such Swing Loan to the Borrower in U.S. Dollars and immediately available funds at the Principal Office prior to 2:00 p.m. Cleveland time on the Borrowing Date.

     Section 2.07 Swing Loan Note. The obligation of the Borrower to repay the unpaid principal amount of the Swing Loans made to it by Swing Loan Bank together with interest thereon shall be evidenced by a demand promissory note of the Borrower dated the Closing Date in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit 1.01(S)(2) payable to the order of Swing Loan Bank in a face amount equal to the Swing Loan Commitment.

     Section 2.08 Use of Proceeds. The proceeds of the Revolving Credit Loans shall be used for (i) refinancing Indebtedness outstanding under the Existing Credit Agreement, (ii) working capital and letters of credit, (iii) capital expenditures and stock repurchases, and (iv) general corporate purposes.

     Section 2.09 Borrowings to Repay Swing Loans. Swing Loan Bank may, at its option, exercisable at any time for any reason whatsoever, demand repayment of the Swing Loans, and each Lender shall make a Revolving Credit Loan in an amount equal to such Lender’s Ratable Share of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Swing Loans, plus, if Swing Loan Bank so requests, accrued interest thereon; upon any such demand being made, Borrower shall be deemed to have requested that such Swing Loans be converted to Revolving Credit Loans. Revolving Credit Loans made pursuant to the preceding sentence shall bear interest at the Base Rate Option and shall be deemed to have been properly requested in accordance with Section 2.05(a), Article VI, and otherwise without regard to any of the requirements of those provisions. Swing Loan Bank shall provide notice to Agent who shall provide such notice to the Lenders (which may be telephonic or written notice by letter, facsimile or telex) that such Revolving Credit Loans are to be made under this Section 2.09 and of the apportionment among the Lenders, and the Lenders shall be unconditionally obligated to fund such Revolving Credit Loans (whether or not the conditions specified in Section 2.05(a), Article VI, or otherwise are then satisfied) by the time Swing Loan Bank so requests, which shall not be earlier than 10:00 a.m., Cleveland time, on the Business Day next after the date the Lenders receive such notice from Swing Loan Bank.

     Section 2.10 Letter of Credit Subfacility.

     (a) Issuance of Letters of Credit. Borrower may request the issuance of a letter of credit (each a “Letter of Credit”) on behalf of itself for its benefit or for the benefit of another Loan Party or any Subsidiary of a Loan Party by delivering to the Issuing Bank (with a copy to the Agent) a completed application or application and agreement for letters of credit in such form, at such time, and with such advance notice as the Issuing Bank may specify from time to time. Each Letter of Credit shall be either a Standby Letter of Credit or a Documentary Letter of Credit.

Subject to the terms and conditions hereof and in reliance on the agreements of the other Lenders set forth in this Section 2.10, the Issuing Bank will issue a Letter of Credit, provided that each Letter of Credit shall (A) have a maximum maturity of twelve (12) months from the date of issuance, provided, however, that Documentary Letters of Credit may provide for automatic renewal (but in no event expire later than is set forth in the directly following Clause (B)) subject to contrary notice given by the Issuing Bank, and (B) in no event expire later than ten (10) Business Days prior to the Expiration Date, and provided that in no event shall (i) the Letters of Credit Outstanding exceed, at any one time, the Revolving Credit Commitments or (ii) the Revolving Facility Usage exceed, at any one time, the Revolving Credit Commitments. The letters of credit set forth on Schedule 2.10 are hereby deemed to be Letters of Credit issued hereunder and governed pursuant hereto.

          (b) Letter of Credit Fees. The Borrower shall pay to the Agent for the ratable account of the Lenders a fee (the “Letter of Credit Fee”) equal to the Documentary Letter of Credit Rate for each Documentary Letter of Credit issued and the Standby Letter of Credit Rate for each Standby Letter of Credit issued (computed on the basis of a year of 360 days for the actual days elapsed), which fees shall be computed on the daily average Letters of Credit Outstanding and shall be payable quarterly in arrears commencing with the last Business Day of each January, April, July, and October following issuance of each Letter of Credit and on the Expiration Date and thereafter on demand. The Borrower shall also pay to each Issuing Bank for the Issuing Bank’s sole account, at the times determined by the Issuing Bank, the Issuing Bank’s then in effect fronting frees and customary fees and administrative expenses payable with

respect to the Letters of Credit as such Issuing Bank may generally charge or incur from time to time in connection with the issuance, maintenance, modification (if any), assignment of proceeds or transfer (if any), negotiation, and administration of Letters of Credit.

          (c) Disbursements, Reimbursement.

               (i) Immediately upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit, each Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the Issuing Bank a participation in such Letter of Credit and each drawing thereunder in an amount equal to such Lender’s Ratable Share of the maximum amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit and the amount of such drawing, respectively, and each Lender shall be responsible to reimburse such Issuing Bank immediately for its Ratable Share of, or purchase a participation in such amount in any Letter of Credit Borrowing relating to, any disbursement under any Letter of Credit which has not been reimbursed by Borrower in accordance with this Section 2.10(c) by making its Ratable Share of the Revolving Credit Loans, or the amount of its participation, referred to in this Section 2.10(c) available to the Agent for the account of the Issuing Bank. Upon the request of any Lender, the Issuing Banks shall notify the Agent and the Agent shall notify each Lender of the amount of such Lender’s participation in Letters of Credit.

               (ii) In the event of any request for a drawing under a Letter of Credit by the beneficiary or transferee thereof, the Issuing Bank will promptly notify the Agent and the Borrower, and the Agent will promptly notify the Borrower. The Borrower shall reimburse (such obligation to reimburse shall sometimes be referred to as a “Reimbursement Obligation”) the Agent for the account of the Issuing Bank prior to noon Cleveland time on each date that an amount is paid by the Issuing Bank under any Letter of Credit (each such date, a “Drawing Date”) in an amount equal to the amount so paid by the Issuing Bank and the Agent shall promptly forward such amount to the Issuing Bank. In the event the Borrower fails to reimburse the Agent for the account of the Issuing Bank for the full amount of any drawing under any Letter of Credit by noon on the Drawing Date, the Agent will promptly notify each Lender (including the Issuing Bank) thereof, and the Borrower shall be deemed to have requested that Revolving Credit Loans be made by the Lenders under the Base Rate Option to be disbursed on the Drawing Date under such Letter of Credit. Any notice given by the Agent pursuant to this Section 2.10(c)(ii) may be oral if immediately confirmed in writing; provided that the lack of such an immediate confirmation shall not affect the conclusiveness or binding effect of such notice.

               (iii) Each Lender shall upon any notice pursuant to Section 2.10(c)(ii) above make available to the Agent for the account of the Issuing Bank an amount in immediately available funds equal to its Ratable Share of the amount of the drawing, whereupon the participating Lenders shall (subject to Section 2.10(c)(iv) below) each be deemed to have made a Revolving Credit Loan under the Base Rate Option to the Borrower in that amount. Revolving Credit Loans made pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be deemed to have been properly requested in accordance with Section 2.05(a), Article VI, and otherwise without regard to any of the requirements of those provisions. If any Lender so notified fails to make available to the Agent for the account of the Issuing Bank the amount of such Lender’s Ratable Share of such amount by no later than 2:00 p.m., Cleveland time on the Drawing Date, then interest shall accrue on such Lender’s obligation to make such payment, from the Drawing Date to the date on which such Lender makes such payment (i) at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Effective Rate during the first three days following the Drawing Date and (ii) at a rate per annum equal to the rate applicable to Loans under the Base Rate Option on and after the fourth day following the Drawing Date. The Issuing Bank will promptly give notice to the Agent and each other Lender of the occurrence of the Drawing Date, but failure of the Issuing Bank to give any such notice on the Drawing

Date or in sufficient time to enable any Lender to effect such payment on such date shall not relieve such Lender from its obligation under this Section 2.10(c)(iii).

               (iv) With respect to any unreimbursed drawing that is not converted into Revolving Credit Loans under the Base Rate Option to the Borrower in whole or in part as contemplated by Section 2.10(c)(ii) above, for any reason, the Borrower shall be deemed to have incurred from the Issuing Bank a borrowing (each a “Letter of Credit Borrowing”) in the amount of such drawing. Such Letter of Credit Borrowing shall be due and payable on demand (together with interest) and shall bear interest at the rate per annum applicable to the Revolving Credit Loans under the Base Rate Option. Each Lender’s payment to the Agent pursuant to Section 2.10(c)(iii) above shall nevertheless be due and shall be deemed to be a payment in respect of its purchase of a participation in such Letter of Credit Borrowing and shall constitute a “Participation Advance” from such Lender in satisfaction of its participation obligation under this Section 2.10(c).

          (d) Repayment of Participation Advances.

               (i) Upon (and only upon) receipt by the Agent for the account of the Issuing Bank of immediately available funds from the Borrower (i) in reimbursement of any payment made by the Issuing Bank under the Letter of Credit, or (ii) in payment of interest on such a payment made by the Issuing Bank under such a Letter of Credit, in either case with respect solely to which any Lender has made a Participation Advance to the Agent, the Agent will pay to each Lender, in the same funds as those received by the Agent, the amount of such Lender’s Ratable Share of such funds (up to the amount of such Lender’s Participation Advance), except the Agent shall pay to the Issuing Bank the amount of the Ratable Share of such funds of any Lender that did not make a Participation Advance in respect of such payment by Issuing Bank or the interest thereon.

               (ii) If the Agent is required at any time to return to any Loan Party, or to a trustee, receiver, liquidator, custodian, or any official in any Insolvency Proceeding, any portion of the payments made by any Loan Party to the Agent pursuant to Section 2.10(d)(i) directly above in reimbursement of a payment made under the Letter of Credit or interest or fee thereon, each Lender shall, on demand of the Agent, forthwith return to the Agent the amount of its Ratable Share of any amounts so returned by the Agent plus interest thereon from the date such demand is made to the date such amounts are returned by such Lender to the Agent, at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Effective Rate in effect from time to time.

          (e) Documentation. Each Loan Party agrees to be bound by the terms of an Issuing Bank’s application and agreement for letters of credit and the Issuing Bank’s written regulations and customary practices relating to letters of credit, though such interpretation may be different from such Loan Party’s own. In the event of a conflict between such application or agreement and this Agreement, this Agreement shall govern. It is understood and agreed that, except in the case of its gross negligence or willful misconduct, no Issuing Bank shall be liable for any error, negligence or mistakes, whether of omission or commission, in following any Loan Party’s instructions or those contained in the Letters of Credit or any modifications, amendments or supplements thereto.

          (f) Nature of Participation and Reimbursement Obligations. Each Lender’s obligation in accordance with this Agreement to make the Revolving Credit Loans or Participation Advances, as contemplated by Section 2.10(c) above, as a result of a drawing under a Letter of Credit, and the Obligations of the Borrower to reimburse the Agent upon a draw under a Letter of Credit, shall be

absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Section 2.10 under all circumstances, including the following circumstances:

                    (C) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit;

                    (D) any claim of breach of warranty that might be made by any Loan Party or any Lender against any beneficiary of a Letter of Credit, or the existence of any claim, set-off, recoupment, counterclaim, crossclaim, defense or other right which any Loan Party or any Lender may have at any time against a beneficiary, successor beneficiary any transferee or assignee of any Letter of Credit or the proceeds thereof (or any Persons for whom any such transferee may be acting), the Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender or any other Person or, whether in connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated herein or any unrelated transaction (including any underlying transaction between any Loan Party or Subsidiaries of a Loan Party and the beneficiary for which any Letter of Credit was procured);

                    (E) the lack of power or authority of any signer of (or any defect in or forgery of any signature or endorsement on) or the form of or lack of validity, sufficiency, accuracy, enforceability or genuineness of any draft, demand, instrument, certificate or other document presented under or in connection with any Letter of Credit, or any fraud or alleged fraud in connection with any Letter of Credit, or the transport of any property or provisions of services relating to a Letter of Credit, in each case even if the Agent or the Issuing Bank or any of the Agent’s or Issuing Bank’s Affiliates has been notified thereof;

                    (F) payment by any Issuing Bank or any of its Affiliates under any Letter of Credit against presentation of a demand, draft or certificate or other document which does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit;

                    (H) any failure by any Issuing Bank to issue any Letter of Credit in the form requested by any Loan Party, unless such Issuing Bank has received written notice from such Loan Party of such failure within three Business Days after such Issuing Bank shall have furnished such Loan

Party a copy of such Letter of Credit and such error is material and no drawing has been made thereon prior to receipt of such notice;

                    (I) any adverse change in the business, operations, properties, assets, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of any Loan Party or Subsidiaries of a Loan Party;

          (g) Indemnity. In addition to amounts payable as provided in Section 9.05 [Reimbursement and Indemnification of Agent by Borrower, Etc.] and Section 10.03 [Reimbursement and Indemnification of Lenders], the Borrower hereby agrees to protect, indemnify, pay and save harmless the Agent and each Issuing Bank from and against any and all claims, demands, liabilities, damages, taxes, penalties, interest, judgments, losses, costs, charges and expenses (including reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of counsel and allocated costs of internal counsel) which the Agent or any Issuing Bank may incur or be subject to as a consequence, direct or indirect, of the issuance of any Letter of Credit, other than as a result of (A) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Agent or any Issuing Bank or (B) the wrongful dishonor by an Issuing Bank of a proper demand for payment made under any Letter of Credit, except if such dishonor resulted from any act or omission, whether rightful or wrongful, of any present or future de jure or de facto government or governmental authority (all such acts or omissions herein called “Governmental Acts”).

          (h) Liability for Acts and Omissions. As between each Loan Party, each Issuing Bank and the Agent, such Loan Party assumes all risks of the acts and omissions of, or misuse of the Letters of Credit by, the respective beneficiaries of such Letters of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, neither the Agent nor any Issuing Bank nor any Issuing Bank’s Affiliate shall be responsible for any of the following including any losses or damages to any Loan Party or other Person or property relating therefrom: (i) the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any document submitted by any party in connection with the application for an issuance of or for a drawing under any such Letter of Credit, even if it should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged (even if the Issuing Bank shall have been notified thereof); (ii) the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign any such Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason; (iii) the failure of the beneficiary of any such Letter of Credit, or any other party to which such Letter of Credit may be transferred, to comply fully with any conditions required in order to draw upon such Letter of Credit, or any claim of any Loan Party against any beneficiary of such Letter of Credit, or any such transferee, or

any dispute between or among any Loan Party and any beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or any such transferee; (iv) errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, cable, telegraph, telex or otherwise, whether or not they be in cipher; (v) errors in interpretation of technical terms or errors in the translation of any Letter of Credit or any documents or instructions relating thereto; (vi) any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under any such Letter of Credit or of the proceeds thereof; (vii) the misapplication by the beneficiary of any such Letter of Credit of the proceeds of any drawing under such Letter of Credit; or (viii) any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of any Issuing Bank, as applicable, including any Governmental Acts, and none of the above shall affect or impair, or prevent the vesting of, any of the Agent’s or any Issuing Bank’s rights or powers hereunder; the respective Issuing Bank’s only obligation to the Borrower being to confirm that any documents required to be delivered under such Letter of Credit appear to have been delivered and that they appear to generally comply on their face with the requirements of such Letter of Credit (unless any such requirements are waived by a Loan Party). Subject to the provisions of the immediately preceding sentence, any action taken or omitted to be taken by any Issuing Bank under or in connection with any Letter of Credit if taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct shall not create for such Issuing Bank any resulting liability to the Borrower or any other Loan Party. In no event shall the Agent or any Issuing Bank be liable to any Loan Party for any indirect, consequential, incidental, punitive, exemplary or special damages or expenses (including without limitation attorneys’ fees), or for any damages resulting from any change in the value of any property relating to a Letter of Credit.

     Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Agent and each Issuing Bank (i) may rely on any oral or other communication believed in good faith by the Agent or such Issuing Bank to have been authorized or given by or on behalf of the applicant for a Letter of Credit, (ii) may honor any presentation if the documents presented appear on their face substantially to comply with the terms and conditions of the relevant Letter of Credit; (iii) may honor a previously dishonored presentation under a Letter of Credit, whether pursuant to a court order, to settle or compromise any claim of wrongful dishonor, or otherwise, and shall be entitled to reimbursement to the same extent as if such presentation had initially been honored, together with any interest paid by the Agent or such Issuing Bank; (iv) may honor any drawing that is payable upon presentation of a statement advising negotiation or payment, upon receipt of such statement (even if such statement indicates that a draft or other document is being delivered separately), and shall not be liable for any failure of any such draft or other document to arrive, or to conform in any way with the relevant Letter of Credit; (v) may pay any paying or negotiating bank claiming that it rightfully honored under the laws or practices of the place where such bank is located; and (vi) may settle or adjust any claim or demand made on the Agent or such Issuing Bank in any way related to any order issued at the applicant’s request to an air carrier, a letter of guarantee or of indemnity issued to a carrier or any similar document (each an “Order”) and honor any drawing in connection with any Letter of Credit that is the subject to such Order, notwithstanding that any drafts or other documents presented in connection with such Letter of Credit fail to conform in any way with such Letter of Credit.

     In furtherance and not in limitation of the specific provisions set forth above, any action taken or omitted by the Agent or an Issuing Bank under or in connection with any Letters of Credit issued by it or any documents and certificates delivered thereunder, if taken or omitted in good faith, shall not put the Agent or such Issuing Bank under any resulting liability to the Borrower or any Lender.

     Section 2.11 Increase in Commitments. The Borrower may from time to time elect to increase the Commitments in a minimum amount of $15,000,000 so long as, after giving effect thereto, the aggregate amount of the Commitments does not exceed $150,000,000. The Borrower may arrange for any such increase to be provided by one or more Lenders (each Lender so agreeing to an increase in its

Commitment, an “Increasing Lender”), or by one or more new banks, financial institutions or other entities (each such new bank, financial institution or other entity, an “Augmenting Lender”), to increase their existing Commitments, or extend Commitments, as the case may be, provided that (i) each Augmenting Lender, shall be subject to the approval of the Borrower, Issuing Banks, and the Agent (such approval by the Agent and Issuing Banks not to be unreasonably withheld) and (ii) (x) in the case of an Increasing Lender, the Borrower and such Increasing Lender execute an agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit 2.11(A) hereto, and (y) in the case of an Augmenting Lender, the Borrower and such Augmenting Lender execute an agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit 2.11(B) hereto. Increased and new Commitments created pursuant to this clause shall become effective on the date agreed by the Borrower, the Agent (such approval by the Agent not to be unreasonably withheld) and the relevant Increasing Lender(s) or Augmenting Lender(s); and, the Agent shall notify each Lender thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no increase in the Commitments (or in the Commitment of any Lender), shall become effective under this paragraph unless, (i) on the proposed date of the effectiveness of such increase, the conditions set forth in Section 6.02 shall be satisfied (or waived by the Required Lenders) and the Agent shall have received a certificate to that effect dated such date and executed by the Chief Executive Officer, President or Chief Financial Officer of the Borrower (or the waiver thereof executed by the Required Lenders), and (ii) the Agent shall have received Revolving Credit Notes reflecting the increase of the Commitments and documents consistent with those delivered by the Loan Parties under Section 6.01(b) as to the corporate power and authority of the Borrower to borrow hereunder after giving effect to such increase. On the effective date of any increase in the Commitments, (i) each Increasing Lender and Augmenting Lender shall make available to the Agent, for the benefit of the other Lenders, such amounts in immediately available funds as the Administrative Agent shall determine as being required in order to cause, after giving effect to such increase and the use of such amounts to make payments to such other Lenders, each Lender’s portion of the outstanding Revolving Loans of all the Lenders to equal its Ratable Share of such outstanding Revolving Loans (after giving effect to the increase in the Commitments occasioned by the addition of the Increasing Lender(s) or Augmenting Lender(s), or both, as the case may be) and (ii) the Borrower shall be deemed to have repaid and reborrowed all outstanding Revolving Loans as of the date of any increase in the Commitments (with such reborrowing to consist of Revolving Loans subject to the same Interest Rate Option, with related Interest Periods if applicable, specified in a notice delivered by the Borrower in accordance with the requirements of Section 2.05). The deemed payments made pursuant to clause (ii) of the immediately preceding sentence in respect of each Loan subject to the LIBOR Option shall be subject to indemnification by the Borrower pursuant to the provisions of Section 4.06(b) if the deemed payment occurs other than on the last day of the related Interest Periods. Upon the request of the Agent, the Borrower shall execute and deliver to Agent for the benefit of the Lenders any and all other documents, instruments, and agreements necessary or advisable in the reasonable judgment of Agent to evidence or document the increase in the Commitments, including any amendments hereto, and each of the Lenders and each of the Loan Parties hereby provides its consent hereto and thereto and each Lender hereby authorizes the Agent, and each Loan Party hereby authorizes the Borrower, to execute any such documents, instruments, and agreements consistent with the terms of this Section 2.11 on its behalf without the necessity of any further consent of any Lender or Loan Party. The Agent and each Lender shall have no obligation to provide any additional credit, commitment, or loan under this Section 2.11 nor shall the Agent or any Lender have any obligation to arrange any such additional credit, commitment, or loan. In consideration of any increase in the Commitments and as a condition to any such increase, Borrower shall pay such fees as are mutually agreed upon by Agent, Borrower, and the applicable Increasing Lender(s) and Augmenting Lender(s); such fees shall be based on market conditions prevailing at the time of such increase for similar syndicated credit transactions with similarly situated Loan Parties.

ARTICLE III INTEREST RATES

     Section 3.01 Interest Rate Options. The Borrower shall pay interest in respect of the outstanding unpaid principal amount of the Revolving Credit Loans as selected by it from the Base Rate Option or LIBOR Option set forth below applicable to the Revolving Credit Loans, it being understood that, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, the Borrower may select different Interest Rate Options and different Interest Periods to apply simultaneously to the Revolving Credit Loans comprising different Borrowing Tranches and may convert to or renew one or more Interest Rate Options with respect to all or any portion of the Revolving Credit Loans comprising any Borrowing Tranche, provided that there shall not be at any one time outstanding more than five (5) Borrowing Tranches in the aggregate among all of the Revolving Credit Loans accruing interest at the LIBOR Option, and provided further that only the Base Rate Option shall apply to the Swing Loans. If at any time the designated rate applicable to any Loan made by any Lender exceeds such Lender’s highest lawful rate, the rate of interest on such Lender’s Loan shall be limited to such Lender’s highest lawful rate.

          (a) Revolving Credit Interest Rate Options. The Borrower shall have the right to select from the following Interest Rate Options applicable to the Revolving Credit Loans (subject to the provisions above regarding refinancing Swing Loans and refinancing Reimbursement Obligations):

               (i) Base Rate Option: A fluctuating rate per annum (computed on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, for the actual days elapsed) equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin, such interest rate to change automatically from time to time effective as of the effective date of each change in the Base Rate; or

               (ii) LIBOR Option: A rate per annum (computed on the basis of a year of 360 days for the actual days elapsed) equal to LIBOR plus the Applicable Margin.

          (b) Rate Quotations. The Borrower may call the Agent on or before the date on which a Loan Request is to be delivered to receive an indication of the rates then in effect, but it is acknowledged that such projection shall not be binding on the Agent or the Lenders nor affect the rate of interest which thereafter is actually in effect when the election is made.

          (c) Change in Fees or Interest Rates. Any increase or decrease in Applicable Margin due to an increase or decrease in the Leverage Ratio Level after the Closing Date shall be effective on the first calendar day following the date on which the Compliance Certificate evidencing the computation of such Leverage Ratio Level is due to be delivered under Section 7.03(c). If the Applicable Margin or Applicable Facility Fee Rate or Applicable Utilization Fee Rate is thereby increased or reduced with respect to any period for which the Borrower has already paid interest or Facility Fees or Utilization Fees, the Agent shall recalculate the additional interest, Facility Fees, and Utilization Fees due from or to the Borrower and shall, within fifteen (15) Business Days after the Borrower notifies the Agent of such increase or decrease, give the Borrower and the Lenders notice of such recalculation.

               (i) Any additional interest or Facility Fees or Utilization Fees due from the Borrower shall be paid to the Agent for the account of the Lenders on the next date on which an interest or fee payment is due; provided, however, that if there are no Loans outstanding or if the Loans are due and payable, such additional interest, Facility Fees, and Utilization Fees shall be paid promptly after receipt of written request for payment from the Agent.

               (ii) Any interest or Facility Fees or Utilization Fees refund due to the Borrower shall be credited against payments otherwise due from the Borrower on the next interest or fee payment due date or, if the Loans have been repaid and the Lenders are no longer committed to lend under this Agreement, the Lenders shall pay the Agent for the account of the Borrower such interest or Facility Fees or Utilization Fees refund not later than five Business Days after written notice from the Agent to the Lenders.

     Section 3.02 Interest Periods. At any time when the Borrower shall select, convert to or renew a LIBOR Option, the Borrower shall notify the Agent thereof at least three (3) Business Days prior to the effective date of such LIBOR Option by delivering a Loan Request. The notice shall specify an Interest Period during which such Interest Rate Option shall apply. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, the following provisions shall apply to any selection of, renewal of, or conversion to a LIBOR Option:

          (a) Amount of Borrowing Tranche. Each Borrowing Tranche of LIBOR Loans shall be in integral multiples of $500,000 and not less than $2,500,000;

          (b) Renewals. In the case of the renewal of a LIBOR Option at the end of an Interest Period, the first day of the new Interest Period shall be the last day of the preceding Interest Period, without duplication in payment of interest for such day.

          Section 3.03 Interest After Default. To the extent permitted by Law, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and until such time such Event of Default shall have been cured or waived:

          (a) Letter of Credit Fees, Interest Rate. The Letter of Credit Fees and the rate of interest for each Loan otherwise applicable pursuant to Section 2.10(b) [Letter of Credit Fees] or Section 3.01 [Interest Rate Options], respectively, shall be increased by 2.0% per annum;

          (b) Other Obligations. Each other Obligation hereunder if not paid when due shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the sum of the rate of interest applicable under the Base Rate Option plus an additional 2.0% per annum from the time such Obligation becomes due and payable and until it is paid in full;

          (c) Acknowledgment. The Borrower acknowledges that the increase in rates referred to in this Section 3.03 reflects, among other things, the fact that such Loans or other amounts have become a substantially greater risk given their default status and that the Lenders are entitled to additional compensation for such risk; and all such interest shall be payable by Borrower upon demand by Agent; and

          (d) LIBOR Option Loans. Each Loan subject to the LIBOR Option shall, on the last day of the Interest Period then in effect during such Event of Default convert to a Loan subject to the Base Rate Option and bear interest in accordance with the terms of this Section 3.03.

     Section 3.04 LIBOR Unascertainable; Illegality; Increased Costs; Deposits Not Available.

          (a) Unascertainable. If on any date on which a LIBO-Rate would otherwise be determined, the Agent shall have determined that:

               (i) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining such LIBO-Rate, or

               (ii) a contingency has occurred which materially and adversely affects the London interbank eurodollar market relating to the LIBO-Rate, the Agent shall have the rights specified in Section 3.04(c).

          (b) Illegality; Increased Costs; Deposits Not Available. If at any time any Lender shall have determined that:

               (i) the making, maintenance or funding of any Loan to which a LIBOR Option applies has been made impracticable or unlawful by compliance by such Lender in good faith with any Law or any interpretation or application thereof by any Official Body or with any request or directive of any such Official Body (whether or not having the force of Law), or

               (ii) such LIBOR Option will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lender of the establishment or maintenance of any such Loan, or

               (iii) after making all reasonable efforts, deposits of the relevant amount in Dollars for the relevant Interest Period for a Loan, or to banks generally, to which a LIBOR Option applies, respectively, are not available to such Lender with respect to such Loan, or to banks generally, in the interbank eurodollar market,

then the Agent shall have the rights specified in Section 3.04(c).

          (c) Agent’s and Lender’s Rights. In the case of any event specified in Section 3.04(a) above, the Agent shall promptly so notify the Lenders and the Borrower thereof, and in the case of an event specified in Section 3.04(b) above, such Lender shall promptly so notify the Agent and endorse a certificate to such notice as to the specific circumstances of such notice, and the Agent shall promptly send copies of such notice and certificate to the other Lenders and the Borrower. Upon such date as shall be specified in such notice (which shall not be earlier than the date such notice is given), the obligation of (A) the Lenders, in the case of such notice given by the Agent, or (B) such Lender, in the case of such notice given by such Lender, to allow the Borrower to select, convert to or renew a LIBOR Option shall be suspended until the Agent shall have later notified the Borrower, or such Lender shall have later notified the Agent, of the Agent’s or such Lender’s, as the case may be, determination that the circumstances giving rise to such previous determination no longer exist. If at any time the Agent makes a determination under Section 3.04(a) and the Borrower has previously notified the Agent of its selection of, conversion to or renewal of a LIBOR Option and such Interest Rate Option has not yet gone into effect, such notification shall be deemed to provide for selection of, conversion to or renewal of the Base Rate Option otherwise available with respect to such Loans. If any Lender notifies the Agent of a determination under Section 3.04(b), the Borrower shall, subject to the Borrower’s indemnification Obligations under Section 4.06(b) [Indemnity], as to any Loan of the Lender to which a LIBOR Option applies, on the date specified in such notice either convert such Loan to the Base Rate Option otherwise available with respect to such Loan or prepay such Loan in accordance with Section 4.04 [Voluntary Prepayments]. Absent due notice from the Borrower of conversion or prepayment, such Loan shall automatically be converted to the Base Rate Option otherwise available with respect to such Loan upon such specified date.

     Section 3.05 Selection of Interest Rate Options. If the Borrower fails to select a new Interest Period or Interest Rate Option to apply to any Borrowing Tranche of Loans under the LIBOR Option at the expiration of an existing Interest Period applicable to such Borrowing Tranche in accordance with the provisions hereof, the Borrower shall be deemed to have converted such Borrowing Tranche to the Base Rate Option, commencing upon the last day of the existing Interest Period.

ARTICLE IV PAYMENTS

     Section 4.01 Payments. All payments and prepayments to be made in respect of principal, interest, Utilization Fees, Facility Fees, Letter of Credit Fees, Agent’s Fee or other fees or amounts due from the Borrower hereunder shall be payable prior to 11:00 a.m., Cleveland time, on the date when due without presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Borrower, and without set-off, counterclaim or other deduction of any nature, and an action therefor shall immediately accrue. Such payments shall be made to the Agent at the Principal Office for the account of Swing Loan Bank with respect to the Swing Loans and for the ratable accounts of the Lenders with respect to the Revolving Credit Loans in U.S. Dollars and in immediately available funds, and the Agent shall promptly distribute such amounts to the Lenders in immediately available funds, provided that in the event payments are received by 11:00 a.m., Cleveland time, by the Agent with respect to the Loans and such payments are not distributed to the Lenders on the same day received by the Agent, the Agent shall pay the Lenders the Federal Funds Effective Rate with respect to the amount of such payments for each day held by the Agent and not distributed to the Lenders. The Agent’s and each Lender’s statement of account, ledger or other relevant record shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive as the statement of the amount of principal of and interest on the Loans and other amounts owing under this Agreement.

     Section 4.02 Pro Rata Treatment of Lenders. Each borrowing shall be allocated to each Lender according to its Ratable Share, and each selection of, conversion to or renewal of any Interest Rate Option and each payment or prepayment by the Borrower with respect to principal, interest, Utilization Fees, Facility Fees, Letter of Credit Fees, or other fees (except for the Agent’s Fee or fronting or other administrative or similar fees of an Issuing Bank) or amounts due from the Borrower hereunder to the Lenders with respect to the Loans, shall (except as provided in Section 3.04(c) [Agent’s and Lender’s Rights] in the case of an event specified in Section 3.04 [LIBOR Unascertainable; Etc.], Section 4.04(b) [Replacement of a Lender] or Section 4.06 [Additional Compensation in Certain Circumstances]) be made in proportion to the applicable Loans outstanding from each Lender and, if no such Loans are then outstanding, in proportion to the Ratable Share of each Lender. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, each borrowing or payment or prepayment by the Borrower of principal, interest, fees or other amounts from the Borrower with respect to Swing Loans shall be made by or to Swing Loan Bank according to Article II.

     Section 4.03 Interest Payment Dates. Interest on Loans to which the Base Rate Option applies shall be due and payable in arrears on the last Business Day of each January, April, July, and October, after the date hereof and on the Expiration Date or upon acceleration of the Loan. Interest on Loans to which the LIBOR Option applies shall be due and payable on the last day of each Interest Period for those Loans and, if such Interest Period is longer than three (3) Months, also on that day which is three (3) Months after the beginning of such Interest Period. Interest on mandatory prepayments of principal under Section 4.05 [Mandatory Prepayments] shall be due on the date such mandatory prepayment is due. Interest on the principal amount of each Loan or other monetary Obligation shall be due and payable on demand after such principal amount or other monetary Obligation becomes due and payable (whether on the stated maturity date, upon acceleration or otherwise).

     Section 4.04 Voluntary Prepayments.

          (a) Right to Prepay. The Borrower shall have the right at its option from time to time to prepay the Loans in whole or part without premium or penalty (except as provided in Section 4.04(b) below or in Section 4.06 [Additional Compensation in Certain Circumstances]):

               (i) at any time with respect to any Loan to which the Base Rate Option applies,

               (ii) on the last day of the applicable Interest Period with respect to Loans to which a LIBOR Option applies,

               (iii) on the date specified in a notice by any Lender pursuant to Section 3.04 [LIBOR Unascertainable, Etc.] with respect to any Loan to which a LIBOR Option applies.

          Whenever the Borrower desires to prepay any part of the Loans, it shall provide a prepayment notice to the Agent by 1:00 p.m. at least one (1) Business Day prior to the date of prepayment of Revolving Credit Loans subject to the Base Rate Option and at least three (3) Business Days prior to the date of prepayment of Revolving Credit Loans subject to the LIBOR Option or no later than 10:00 a.m Cleveland time on the date of prepayment of Swing Loans, setting forth the following information:

     (x) the date, which shall be a Business Day, on which the proposed prepayment is to be made;

     (y) a statement indicating the application of the prepayment between the Swing Loans and Revolving Credit Loans; and

     (z) the total principal amount of such prepayment, which shall not be less than $500,000 for any Swing Loan or $1,000,000 for any Revolving Credit Loan.

          All prepayment notices shall be irrevocable. The principal amount of the Loans for which a prepayment notice is given, together with interest on such principal amount, shall be due and payable on the date specified in such prepayment notice as the date on which the proposed prepayment is to be made. Except as provided in Section 3.04(c) [Agent’s and Lender’s rights], if the Borrower prepays a Loan but fails to specify the applicable Borrowing Tranche which the Borrower is prepaying, the prepayment shall be applied (i) to Revolving Credit Loans; and (ii) after giving effect to the allocations in clause (i) above and in the preceding sentence, first to Loans to which the Base Rate Option applies, then to Loans to which the LIBOR Option applies. Any prepayment hereunder shall be subject to the Borrower’s Obligation to indemnify the Lenders under Section 4.06(b) [Indemnity].

          (b) Replacement of a Lender. In the event any Lender (i) gives notice under Section 3.04 [LIBOR Unascertainable, Etc.] or Section 4.06(a) [Increased Costs, Etc.], (ii) does not fund Revolving Credit Loans because the making of such Loans would contravene any Law applicable to such Lender, or (iii) becomes subject to the control of an Official Body (other than normal and customary supervision) (iv) fails to agree to any amendment, consent, waiver, or the like as to which the Required Lenders have agreed , then the Borrower shall have the right at its option, with the consent of the Agent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, to prepay the Loans of such Lender in whole, together with all interest accrued thereon, and terminate such Lender’s Commitment within ninety (90) days after

(w) receipt of such Lender’s notice under Section 3.04 [LIBOR Unascertainable, Etc.] or Section 4.06(a) [Increased Costs, Etc.], (x) the date such Lender has failed to fund Revolving Credit Loans because the making of such Loans would contravene Law applicable to such Lender, (y) the date such Lender became subject to the control of an Official Body, or (z) the date such amendment, consent, waiver, or the like becomes effective, as applicable; provided that the Borrower shall also pay to such Lender at the time of such prepayment any amounts required under Section 4.06 [Additional Compensation in Certain Circumstances] and any accrued interest due on such amount and any related fees; provided, however, that the Commitment of such Lender shall be provided by one or more of the remaining Lenders or a replacement bank acceptable to the Agent; provided, further, the remaining Lenders shall have no obligation hereunder to increase their Commitments. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Agent may only be replaced subject to the requirements of Section 9.14 [Successor Agent] and provided that all Letters of Credit have expired or been terminated or replaced.

          (c) Change of Lending Office. Each Lender agrees that upon the occurrence of any event giving rise to increased costs or other special payments under Section 3.04(b) [Illegality, Etc.] or Section 4.06(a) [Increased Costs, Etc.] with respect to such Lender, it will if requested by the Borrower, use reasonable efforts (subject to overall policy considerations of such Lender) to designate another lending office for any Loans or Letters of Credit affected by such event, provided that such designation is made on such terms that such Lender and its lending office suffer no economic, legal or regulatory disadvantage, with the object of avoiding the consequence of the event giving rise to the operation of such Section. Nothing in this Section 4.04(c) shall affect or postpone any of the Obligations of the Borrower or any other Loan Party or the rights of the Agent or any Lender provided in this Agreement.

          (d) Voluntary Reduction of Commitments. The Borrower shall have the right, upon not less than five (5) Business Days’ written irrevocable notice to the Agent, to terminate the Revolving Credit Commitments or, from time to time, to reduce the amount of the Revolving Credit Commitments, which notice shall specify the date and amount of any such reduction and otherwise be substantially in the form of Exhibit 4.04(D) (a “Commitment Reduction Notice”). Any such reduction shall be in a minimum amount equal to $2,500,000 or an integral multiple of $2,500,000 in excess thereof, provided, that the Revolving Credit Commitments may not be reduced below the sum of the aggregate principal amount of all Revolving Facility Usage. Each reduction of Revolving Credit Commitments shall ratably reduce the Revolving Credit Commitments of the Lenders.

     Section 4.05 Mandatory Prepayments.

          (a) Mandatory Prepayment Upon Sale of Assets; Mandatory Reduction of Revolving Credit Commitments. Within five (5) Business Days of any Significant Asset Sale by any one or more Loan Parties, the Revolving Credit Commitments shall automatically and permanently be reduced in an amount equal to the net cash proceeds of such Significant Asset Sale. On the date of any reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments pursuant to this Section 4.05(a), the Borrower shall make a mandatory prepayment of so much of the Revolving Credit Loans as shall be necessary in order that the Revolving Facility Usage will not exceed the Revolving Credit Commitments after giving effect to such reduction. Any prepayment hereunder shall be subject to the Borrower’s Obligation to indemnify the Lenders under Section 4.06(b) [Indemnity]. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments (or concomitant prepayment as required below) shall be required to the extent of those net cash proceeds from such Significant Asset Sale which Borrower certifies to the Agent that it reasonably expects to utilize, in a manner not inconsistent with the terms hereof after giving effect thereto, in the business of the Borrower or another Loan Party within one hundred eighty (180) days of the date of such Significant Asset Sale. In the event that such utilization has not occurred within such one hundred eighty

(180) day period, the Borrower shall make a mandatory prepayment of all net cash proceeds not so expended. All net cash proceeds not so certified as set forth above within such one hundred eighty (180) day period shall be subject to the first sentence of this Section 4.05(a).

          (b) Mandatory Prepayment Upon Significant Recovery Event; Mandatory Reduction of Revolving Credit Commitments. Within five (5) Business Days of any Significant Recovery Event, the Revolving Credit Commitments shall automatically and permanently be reduced in an amount equal to the net cash proceeds of such Significant Recovery Event. On the date of any reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments pursuant to this Section 4.05(b), the Borrower shall make a mandatory prepayment of so much of the Revolving Credit Loans as shall be necessary in order that the Revolving Facility Usage will not exceed the Revolving Credit Commitments after giving effect to such reduction. Any prepayment hereunder shall be subject to the Borrower’s Obligation to indemnify the Lenders under Section 4.06(b) [Indemnity]. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments (or concomitant prepayment as required below) shall be required to the extent of those net cash proceeds from such Significant Recovery Event which Borrower certifies to the Agent that it reasonably expects to use to purchase substitute or replacement assets for use in the business of the Borrower or another Loan Party within one hundred eighty (180) days of the date of such Significant Recovery Event. In the event that such substitution or replacement purchase has not occurred within such one hundred eighty (180) day period, the Borrower shall make a mandatory prepayment of all net cash proceeds not so expended. All net cash proceeds not certified as expected to be so expended on substitute or replacement assets for use in the business of the Borrower or another Loan Party within such one hundred eighty (180) day period shall be subject to the first sentence of this Section 4.05(b).

          (c) Application Among Interest Rate Options; Cash Collateral Under Certain Circumstances. All prepayments required pursuant to this Section 4.05 shall first be applied among the Interest Rate Options to the principal amount of the Loans subject to the Base Rate Option, then to Loans subject to a LIBOR Option. In accordance with Section 4.06(b) [Indemnity], the Borrower shall indemnify the Lenders for any loss or expense, including loss of margin, incurred with respect to any such prepayments applied against Loans subject to a LIBOR Option on any day other than the last day of the applicable Interest Period. In the event that all Revolving Credit Loans have been prepaid pursuant to Section 4.05(a) or Section 4.05(b), but the Revolving Facility Usage continues to exceed the Revolving Credit Commitments, then Borrower shall deposit in a non-interest bearing account with the Agent, as cash collateral for the Obligations, an amount equal to the amount by which the Revolving Facility Usage exceeds the Revolving Credit Commitments after giving effect to such reduction, and the Borrower hereby pledges to the Agent and the Lenders, and grants to the Agent and the Lenders a security interest in, all such cash and deposit accounts as security for such Obligations. Upon and to the extent that the Revolving Credit Commitments (after giving effect to such reduction) plus the amount of such cash collateral exceeds the Revolving Facility Usage, the Agent shall release and return an amount of such cash collateral equal to such excess to the Borrower upon its request.

     Section 4.06 Additional Compensation in Certain Circumstances.

          (a) Increased Costs or Reduced Return Resulting From Taxes, Reserves, Capital Adequacy Requirements, Expenses, Etc. If any Law, guideline or interpretation or any change in any Law, guideline or interpretation or application thereof by any Official Body charged with the interpretation or administration thereof or compliance with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of Law) of any central bank or other Official Body:

               (i) subjects any Lender to any tax or changes the basis of taxation with respect to this Agreement, the Loans or payments by the Borrower of principal, interest, Facility Fees, Utilization Fees, or other amounts due from the Borrower hereunder (except for taxes on the overall net income of such Lender),

               (ii) imposes, modifies or deems applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against credits or commitments to extend credit extended by, or assets (funded or contingent) of, deposits with or for the account of, or other acquisitions of funds by, any Lender, or

               (iii) imposes, modifies or deems applicable any capital adequacy or similar requirement (A) against assets (funded or contingent) of, or letters of credit, other credits or commitments to extend credit extended by, any Lender, or (B) otherwise applicable to the obligations of any Lender under this Agreement and under agreements of a similar nature with other obligors to such Lender,

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to, reduce the income receivable by, or impose any expense (including loss of margin) upon any Lender, by an amount which such Lender in its sole discretion deems to be material, with respect to this Agreement or with respect to the making, maintenance or funding of any part of the Loans (or, in the case of any capital adequacy or similar requirement, to have the effect of reducing the rate of return on any Lender’s capital, taking into consideration such Lender’s customary policies with respect to capital adequacy), such Lender shall from time to time notify the Borrower and the Agent of the amount determined in good faith (using any averaging and attribution methods employed in good faith) by such Lender to be necessary to compensate such Lender for such increase in cost, reduction of income, additional expense or reduced rate of return. Such notice shall set forth in reasonable detail the basis for such determination. Such amount shall be due and payable by the Borrower to such Lender ten (10) Business Days after such notice is given.

          (b) Indemnity. In addition to the compensation required by Section 4.06(a) [Increased Costs, Etc.], the Borrower shall indemnify each Lender against all liabilities, losses or expenses (including loss of margin, any loss or expense incurred in liquidating or employing deposits from third parties and any loss or expense incurred in connection with funds acquired by a Lender to fund or maintain Loans subject to a LIBOR Option) which such Lender sustains or incurs as a consequence of any

               (i) payment, prepayment, conversion or renewal of any Loan to which a LIBOR Option applies on a day other than the last day of the corresponding Interest Period (whether or not such payment or prepayment is mandatory, voluntary or automatic and whether or not such payment or prepayment is then due),

               (ii) attempt by the Borrower to revoke (expressly, by later inconsistent notices or otherwise) in whole or part any Loan Requests under Section 2.05 [Revolving Credit Loan Requests] or Section 3.02 [Interest Periods] or notice relating to prepayments under Section 4.04 [Voluntary Prepayments], or

               (iii) default by the Borrower in the performance or observance of any covenant or condition contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, including any failure of the Borrower to pay when due (by acceleration or otherwise) any principal, interest, Facility Fee, Utilization Fee, or any other amount due hereunder.

          If any Lender sustains or incurs any such loss or expense, it shall from time to time notify the Borrower of the amount determined in good faith by such Lender (which determination may include such assumptions, allocations of costs and expenses and averaging or attribution methods as such Lender shall deem reasonable) to be necessary to indemnify such Lender for such loss or expense. Such notice shall set forth in reasonable detail the basis for such determination. Such amount shall be due and payable by the Borrower to such Lender ten (10) Business Days after such notice is given.

     Section 4.07 Taxes.

          (a) No Deductions. All payments made by Borrower hereunder and under each Note shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any present or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect thereto, excluding taxes imposed on the net income of any Lender and all income and franchise taxes applicable to any Lender of the United States (all such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings, and liabilities being hereinafter referred to as “Taxes”). If Borrower shall be required by Law to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder or under any Note, (i) the sum payable shall be increased as may be necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 4.07(a)) each Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) Borrower shall make such deductions and (iii) Borrower shall timely pay the full amount deducted to the relevant tax authority or other authority in accordance with applicable Law.

          (b) Stamp Taxes. In addition, Borrower agrees to pay any present or future stamp or documentary taxes or any other excise or property taxes, charges, or similar levies which arise from any payment made hereunder or from the execution, delivery, or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or any Note (hereinafter referred to as “Other Taxes”).

          (c) Indemnification for Taxes Paid by a Lender. Borrower shall indemnify each Lender for the full amount of Taxes or Other Taxes (including, without limitation, any Taxes or Other Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 4.07(c)) paid by any Lender and any liability (including penalties, interest, and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally asserted. This indemnification shall be made within 30 days from the date a Lender makes written demand therefor.

          (d) Certificate. Within 30 days after the date of any payment of any Taxes by Borrower, Borrower shall furnish to each Lender, at its address referred to herein, the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof. If no Taxes are payable in respect of any payment by Borrower, such Borrower shall, if so requested by a Lender, provide a certificate of an officer of Borrower to that effect.

          (e) Survival. Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of Borrower hereunder, the agreements and obligations of Borrower contained in this Section 4.07 shall survive the payment in full of principal and interest hereunder and under any instrument delivered hereunder.

     Section 4.08 Judgment Currency.

          (a) Currency Conversion Procedures for Judgments. If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder or under a Note in any currency (the “Original Currency”) into another currency (the “Other Currency”), the parties hereby agree, to the

fullest extent permitted by Law, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures each Lender could purchase the Original Currency with the Other Currency after any premium and costs of exchange on the Business Day preceding that on which final judgment is given.

          (b) Indemnity in Certain Events. The obligation of Borrower in respect of any sum due from Borrower to any Lender hereunder shall, notwithstanding any judgment in an Other Currency, whether pursuant to a judgment or otherwise, be discharged only to the extent that, on the Business Day following receipt by any Lender of any sum adjudged to be so due in such Other Currency, such Lender may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase the Original Currency with such Other Currency.

ARTICLE IX THE AGENT

     Section 9.01 Appointment. Each Lender hereby irrevocably designates, appoints and authorizes National City Bank to act as Agent for such Lender under this Agreement and to execute and deliver or accept on behalf of each of the Lenders the other Loan Documents. Each Lender hereby irrevocably authorizes, the Agent to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any other instruments and agreements referred to herein, and to exercise such powers and to perform such duties hereunder as are specifically delegated to or required of the Agent by the terms hereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. National City Bank agrees to act as the Agent on behalf of the Lenders to the extent provided in this Agreement.

     Section 9.02 Delegation of Duties. The Agent may perform any of its duties hereunder by or through agents or employees (provided such delegation does not constitute a relinquishment of its duties as Agent) and, subject to Section 9.05 [Reimbursement of Agent by Borrower, Etc.] and Section 9.06, shall be entitled to engage and pay for the advice or services of any attorneys, accountants or other experts concerning all matters pertaining to its duties hereunder and to rely upon any advice so obtained.

     Section 9.03 Nature of Duties; Independent Credit Investigation. The Agent shall have no duties or responsibilities except those expressly set forth in this Agreement and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations, or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or otherwise exist. The duties of the Agent shall be mechanical and administrative in nature; the Agent shall not have by reason of this Agreement a fiduciary or trust relationship in respect of any Lender; and nothing in this

Agreement, expressed or implied, is intended to or shall be so construed as to impose upon the Agent any obligations in respect of this Agreement except as expressly set forth herein. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the use of the term “agent” in this Agreement with reference to the Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable Law. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties. Each Lender expressly acknowledges (i) that the Agent has not made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by the Agent hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of any of the Loan Parties, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by the Agent to any Lender; (ii) that it has made and will continue to make, without reliance upon the Agent, its own independent investigation of the financial condition and affairs and its own appraisal of the creditworthiness of each of the Loan Parties in connection with this Agreement and the making and continuance of the Loans hereunder; and (iii) except as expressly provided herein, that the Agent shall have no duty or responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis, to provide any Lender with any credit or other information with respect thereto, whether coming into its possession before the making of any Loan or at any time or times thereafter.

     Section 9.04 Actions in Discretion of Agent; Instructions From the Lenders. The Agent agrees, upon the written request of the Required Lenders, to take or refrain from taking any action of the type specified as being within the Agent’s rights, powers or discretion herein, provided that the Agent shall not be required to take any action which exposes the Agent to personal liability or which is contrary to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or applicable Law. In the absence of a request by the Required Lenders, the Agent shall have authority, in its sole discretion, to take or not to take any such action, unless this Agreement specifically requires the consent of the Required Lenders or all of the Lenders. Any action taken or failure to act pursuant to such instructions or discretion shall be binding on the Lenders, subject to Section 9.06 [Exculpatory Provisions, Etc.]. Subject to the provisions of Section 9.06, no Lender shall have any right of action whatsoever against the Agent as a result of the Agent acting or refraining from acting hereunder in accordance with the instructions of the Required Lenders, or in the absence of such instructions, in the absolute discretion of the Agent.

     Section 9.05 Reimbursement and Indemnification of Agent by the Borrower. The Borrower unconditionally agrees to pay or reimburse the Agent and each of its directors, officers, employees, counsel, agents, and attorneys-in-fact (collectively, the “Agent Indemnitees” and each an “Agent Indemnitee”) and hold each of the Agent Indemnitees harmless against (a) liability for the payment of all reasonable out-of-pocket costs, expenses and disbursements, including fees and expenses of counsel (including the allocated costs of staff counsel), appraisers and environmental consultants, incurred by any Agent Indemnitee (i) in connection with the development, negotiation, preparation, printing, execution, administration, syndication, interpretation and performance of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, (ii) relating to any requested amendments, waivers or consents pursuant to the provisions hereof, (iii) in connection with the enforcement of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or collection of amounts due hereunder or thereunder or the proof and allowability of any claim arising under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, whether in bankruptcy or receivership proceedings or otherwise, (iv) in any workout or restructuring or in connection with the protection, preservation, exercise or enforcement of any of the terms hereof or of any rights hereunder or under any other Loan Document or in connection with any foreclosure, collection or bankruptcy proceedings, and (v) in connection with any Environmental Complaint threatened or asserted against any Agent Indemnitee or the Lenders in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Loan Documents (including, without limitation, the protection, preservation, exercise or enforcement of any of the terms hereof or of any rights hereunder or under any other Loan Document or in connection with any foreclosure, collection or bankruptcy proceedings or in any workout or restructuring) and (b) 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 any Agent Indemnitee acting on behalf of or as the Agent, in its capacity as such, in any way relating to or arising out of (i) this Agreement or any other Loan Documents or any action taken or omitted by any Agent Indemnitee hereunder or thereunder, and (ii) any Environmental Complaint in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Loan Documents or any action taken or omitted by any Agent Indemnitee hereunder or thereunder, provided that the Borrower shall not be liable to an Agent Indemnitee for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements to the extent the same results from such Agent Indemnitee’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, or if the Borrower was not given notice of the subject claim and the opportunity to participate in the defense thereof, at its expense (except that the Borrower shall remain liable to the extent such failure to give notice does not result in a loss to the Borrower), or if the same results from a compromise or settlement agreement entered into without the consent of the Borrower, which shall not be unreasonably withheld.

No claim may be made by any of the Loan Parties, any Lender, the Agent or any of their respective Subsidiaries against the Agent, any Lender, any of the Loan Parties, or any of their respective directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys or Affiliates, or any of them, for any special, indirect or consequential damages or, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, for any punitive damages in respect of any claim or cause of action (whether based on contract, tort, statutory liability, or any other ground) based on, arising out of or related to any Loan Document or the transactions contemplated hereby or any act, omission or event occurring in connection therewith, including the negotiation, documentation, administration or collection of the Loans, and each of the Loan Parties, (for itself and on behalf of each of its Subsidiaries), the Agent and each Lender hereby waives, releases and agrees never to ▇▇▇ upon any claim for any such damages, whether such claim now exists or hereafter arises and whether or not it is now known or suspected to exist in its favor.

     Section 9.09 Notice of Default. The Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Potential Default or Event of Default unless the Agent has received written notice from a Lender or the Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Potential Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default.”

     Section 9.10 Notices. The Agent shall promptly send to each Lender a copy of all notices received from the Borrower pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents promptly upon receipt thereof.

With respect to its Revolving Credit Commitment and the Revolving Credit Loans made by it and any other rights and powers given to it as a Lender hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents, the Agent shall have the same rights and powers hereunder as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Agent, and the term “Bank” and “Lenders” shall, unless the context otherwise indicates, include the Agent in its individual capacity.

The Lenders and Agent acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities, the Agent, Lenders and any of their

respective Affiliates may (i) receive information regarding the Loan Parties or any of their Subsidiaries or Affiliates (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of the Loan Parties or such Subsidiary or Affiliate) and acknowledge that none of the Agent, any Lender, or any of their respective Affiliates shall be under any obligation to provide such information to any of the others, and (ii) accept fees and other consideration from the Loan Parties for services in connection with this Agreement and otherwise without having to account for the same to any of the others.

The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Borrower, the Agent, and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

     Section 9.13 Equalization of Lenders. The Lenders and the holders of any participations in any Commitments or Loans or other rights or obligations of a Lender hereunder agree among themselves that, with respect to all amounts received by any Lender or any such holder for application on any Obligation hereunder or under any such participation, whether received by voluntary payment, by realization upon security, by the exercise of the right of set-off or banker’s lien, by counterclaim or by any other non-pro rata source, equitable adjustment will be made in the manner stated in the following sentence so that, in effect, all such excess amounts will be shared ratably among the Lenders and such holders in proportion to their interests in payments on the Loans, except as otherwise provided in Section 3.04(c) [Agent’s and Lender’s Rights], Section 4.04(b) [Replacement of a Lender] or Section 4.06 [Additional Compensation in Certain Circumstances]. The Lenders or any such holder receiving any such amount shall purchase for cash from each of the other Lenders an interest in such Lender’s Loans in such amount as shall result in a ratable participation by the Lenders and each such holder in the aggregate unpaid amount of the Loans, provided that if all or any portion of such excess amount is thereafter recovered from the Lender or the holder making such purchase, such purchase shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, together with interest or other amounts, if any, required by law (including court order) to be paid by the Lender or the holder making such purchase.

     Section 9.14 Successor Agent. The Agent (i) may resign as Agent or (ii) shall resign if such resignation is requested by the Required Lenders (if the Agent is a Lender, the Agent’s Loans and its Commitment shall be considered in determining whether the Required Lenders have requested such resignation) or required by Section 4.04(b) [Replacement of a Lender], in either case of (i) or (ii) by giving not less than thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to the Borrower. If the Agent shall resign under this Agreement, then either (a) the Required Lenders shall appoint from among the Lenders a successor agent for the Lenders, subject to the consent of the Borrower, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, or (b) if a successor agent shall not be so appointed and approved within the thirty (30) day period following the Agent’s notice to the Lenders of its resignation, then the Agent shall appoint, with the consent of the Borrower, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, a successor agent who shall serve as Agent until such time as the Required Lenders appoint and the Borrower consents to the appointment of a successor agent. Upon its appointment pursuant to either clause (a) or (b) above, such successor agent shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties of the Agent, and the term “Agent” shall mean such successor agent, effective upon its appointment, and the former Agent’s rights, powers and duties as Agent shall be terminated without any other or further act or deed on the part of such former Agent or any of the

parties to this Agreement. After the resignation of any Agent hereunder, the provisions of this Article IX shall inure to the benefit of such former Agent and such former Agent shall not by reason of such resignation be deemed to be released from liability for any actions taken or not taken by it while it was an Agent under this Agreement.

     Section 9.16 Availability of Funds. The Agent may assume that each Lender has made or will make the proceeds of a Loan available to the Agent unless the Agent shall have been notified by such Lender on or before the later of (1) the close of Business on the Business Day preceding the Borrowing Date with respect to such Loan or two (2) hours before the time on which the Agent actually funds the proceeds of such Loan to the Borrower (whether using its own funds pursuant to this Section 9.16 or using proceeds deposited with the Agent by the Lenders and whether such funding occurs before or after the time on which Lenders are required to deposit the proceeds of such Loan with the Agent). The Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption (but shall not be required to), make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. If such corresponding amount is not in fact made available to the Agent by such Lender, the Agent shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Lender (or, if such Lender fails to pay such amount forthwith upon such demand from the Borrower) together with interest thereon, in respect of each day during the period commencing on the date such amount was made available to the Borrower and ending on the date the Agent recovers such amount, at a rate per annum equal to (i) the Federal Funds Effective Rate during the first three (3) days after such interest shall begin to accrue and (ii) the applicable interest rate in respect of such Loan after the end of such three-day period.

     Section 9.17 Calculations. In the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct, the Agent shall not be liable for any error in computing the amount payable to any Lender whether in respect of the Loans, fees or any other amounts due to the Lenders under this Agreement. In the event an error in computing any amount payable to any Lender is made, the Agent, the Borrower and each affected Lender shall, forthwith upon discovery of such error, make such adjustments as shall be required to correct such error, and any compensation therefor will be calculated at the Federal Funds Effective Rate.

     Section 9.18 Beneficiaries. Except as expressly provided herein, the provisions of this Article IX are solely for the benefit of the Agent and the Lenders, and the Loan Parties shall not have any rights to rely on or enforce any of the provisions hereof. In performing its functions and duties under this Agreement, the Agent shall act solely as agent of the Lenders and does not assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation toward or relationship of agency or trust with or for any of the Loan Parties.

     Section 9.19 Other Agent Titles. Each of the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the titles of Documentation Agent, Managing Agent, and Syndication Agent are honorary and do not imply or impose any duty or obligation of any nature on any party having any such title.

With the written consent of the Required Lenders, the Agent, acting on behalf of all the Lenders, and the Borrower, on behalf of the Loan Parties, may from time to time enter into written agreements amending or changing any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the rights of the Lenders or the Loan Parties hereunder or

thereunder, or may grant written waivers or consents to a departure from the due performance of the Obligations of the Loan Parties hereunder or thereunder. Any such agreement, waiver or consent made with such written consent shall be effective to bind all the Lenders and the Loan Parties; provided, that, without the written consent of all the Lenders, no such agreement, waiver or consent may be made which will:

          (a) Increase of Commitment; Extension of Expiration Date. Increase the amount of the Revolving Credit Commitment of any Lender hereunder (other than in accordance with Section 2.11) or extend the Expiration Date;

          (b) Extension of Payment; Reduction of Principal Interest or Fees; Modification of Terms of Payment. Whether or not any Loans are outstanding, extend the time for payment of principal or interest of any Loan (excluding the due date of any mandatory prepayment of a Loan or any mandatory Commitment reduction in connection with such a mandatory prepayment hereunder except for mandatory reductions of the Commitments on the Expiration Date), the Facility Fee, Utilization Fee or any other fee payable to any Lender, or reduce the principal amount of or the rate of interest borne by any Loan or reduce the Facility Fee, Utilization Fee, or any other fee payable to any Lender, or otherwise affect the terms of payment of the principal of or interest of any Loan, the Facility Fee, Utilization Fee, or any other fee payable to any Lender;

          (c) Release of Guarantor. Release any Guarantor from its Obligations under the Guaranty Agreement (other than in accordance with Section 7.02(f) or (h)) or any other security for any of the Loan Parties’ Obligations (other than cash or other collateral as provided in Section 4.05, Section 7.02(h) or Section 8.02); or

          (d) Miscellaneous. Amend Section 4.02 [Pro Rata Treatment of Lenders], Section 8.02(e)(i) [Application of Proceeds], Section 9.06 [Exculpatory Provisions, Etc.] or Section 9.13 [Equalization of Lenders] or this Section 10.01, alter any provision regarding the pro rata treatment of the Lenders, change the definition of Required Lenders, or change any requirement providing for the Lenders or the Required Lenders to authorize the taking of any action hereunder;

provided, further, that no agreement, waiver or consent which would modify the interests, rights or obligations of the Agent in its capacity as Agent or an Issuing Bank in its capacity as the issuer of Letters of Credit shall be effective without the written consent of the Agent or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be.

     Section 10.02 No Implied Waivers; Cumulative Remedies; Writing Required. No course of dealing and no delay or failure of the Agent or any Lender in exercising any right, power, remedy or privilege under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall affect any other or future exercise thereof or operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right, power, remedy or privilege preclude any further exercise thereof or of any other right, power, remedy or privilege. The rights and remedies of the Agent and the Lenders under this Agreement and any other Loan Documents are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies which they would otherwise have. Any waiver, permit, consent or approval of any kind or character on the part of any Lender of any breach or default under this Agreement or any such waiver of any provision or condition of this Agreement must be in writing and shall be effective only to the extent specifically set forth in such writing.

     Section 10.03 Reimbursement and Indemnification of Lenders by the Borrower; Taxes. The Borrower agrees unconditionally upon demand to pay or reimburse to each Lender (other than the Agent in such capacity, as to which the Borrower’s Obligations are set forth in Section 9.05 [Reimbursement of Agent By Borrower, Etc.]) and to save such Lender harmless against (i) liability for the payment of all reasonable out-of-pocket costs, expenses and disbursements (including fees and expenses of counsel (including allocated costs of staff counsel) for each Lender except with respect to (a) and (b) below), incurred by such Lender (a) in connection with the administration and interpretation of this Agreement, and other instruments and documents to be delivered hereunder, (b) relating to any amendments, waivers or consents pursuant to the provisions hereof, (c) in connection with the enforcement of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or collection of amounts due hereunder or thereunder or the proof and allowability of any claim arising under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, whether in bankruptcy or receivership proceedings or otherwise, (d) in any workout or restructuring or in connection with the protection, preservation, exercise or enforcement of any of the terms hereof or of any rights hereunder or under any other Loan Document or in connection with any foreclosure, collection or bankruptcy proceedings, and (e) in connection with any Environmental Complaint threatened or asserted against the Lender in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Loan Documents (including, without limitation, the protection, preservation, exercise or enforcement of any of the terms hereof or of any rights hereunder or under any other Loan Document or in connection with any foreclosure, collection or bankruptcy proceedings or in any workout or restructuring), and the Borrower agrees to indemnify and save each Lender and each of its directors, officers, employees, counsel, agents and attorneys-in-fact (collectively, the Indemnitees” and each an “Indemnitee”) harmless against all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (including fees and expenses of counsel (including allocated costs of staff counsel)) which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee acting on behalf of or as a Lender, in its capacity as such, in any way relating to or arising out of (y) this Agreement or any other Loan Documents or any action taken or omitted by an Indemnitee hereunder or thereunder and (z) any Environmental Complaint in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Loan Documents or any action taken or omitted by an Indemnitee hereunder or thereunder (including any claim, litigation, investigation, or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort, or any other theory and regardless whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto), provided that the Borrower shall not be liable to an Indemnitee for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements (A) if the same results from such Indemnitee’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, or (B) if the Borrower was not given notice of the subject claim and the opportunity to participate in the defense thereof, at its expense (except that the Borrower shall remain liable to the extent such failure to give notice does not result in a loss to the Borrower), or (C) if the same results from a compromise or settlement agreement entered into without the consent of the Borrower, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Lenders and other Indemnitees will attempt to minimize the fees and expenses of legal counsel for the Lenders and other Indemnitees which are subject to reimbursement by the Borrower hereunder by considering the usage of one law firm to represent the Lenders, other Indemnitees, and the Agent if appropriate under the circumstances. The Borrower agrees unconditionally to pay all stamp, document, transfer, recording or filing taxes or fees and similar impositions now or hereafter determined by the Agent or any Lender to be payable in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, and the Borrower agrees unconditionally to save the Agent and the Lenders harmless from and against any and all present or future claims, liabilities or losses with respect to or resulting from any omission to pay or delay in paying any such taxes, fees or impositions.

     Section 10.04 Holidays. Whenever payment of a Loan to be made or taken hereunder shall be due on a day which is not a Business Day such payment shall be due on the next Business Day (except as provided in Section 3.02(c) [Interest Periods] with respect to Interest Periods under the LIBOR Option) and such extension of time shall be included in computing interest and fees, except that the Loans shall be due on the Business Day preceding the Expiration Date if the Expiration Date is not a Business Day. Whenever any payment or action to be made or taken hereunder (other than payment of the Loans) shall be stated to be due on a day which is not a Business Day, such payment or action shall be made or taken on the next following Business Day, and such extension of time shall not be included in computing interest or fees, if any, in connection with such payment or action.

     Section 10.05 Funding by Branch, Subsidiary or Affiliate.

          (a) Notional Funding. Each Lender shall have the right from time to time, without notice to the Borrower, to deem any branch, Subsidiary or Affiliate (which for the purposes of this Section 10.05 shall mean any corporation or association which is directly or indirectly controlled by or is under direct or indirect common control with any corporation or association which directly or indirectly controls such Lender) of such Lender to have made, maintained or funded any Loan to which the LIBOR Option applies at any time, provided that immediately following (on the assumption that a payment were then due from the Borrower to such other office), and as a result of such change, the Borrower would not be under any greater financial obligation pursuant to Section 4.06 [Additional Compensation in Certain Circumstances] than it would have been in the absence of such change. Notional funding offices may be selected by each Lender without regard to such Lender’s actual methods of making, maintaining or funding the Loans or any sources of funding actually used by or available to such Lender.

          (b) Actual Funding. Each Lender shall have the right from time to time to make or maintain any Loan by arranging for a branch, Subsidiary or Affiliate of such Lender to make or maintain such Loan subject to the last sentence of this Section 10.05(b). If any Lender causes a branch, Subsidiary or Affiliate to make or maintain any part of the Loans hereunder, all terms and conditions of this Agreement shall, except where the context clearly requires otherwise, be applicable to such part of the Loans to the same extent as if such Loans were made or maintained by such Lender, but in no event shall any Lender’s use of such a branch, Subsidiary or Affiliate to make or maintain any part of the Loans hereunder cause such Lender or such branch, Subsidiary or Affiliate to incur any cost or expenses payable by the Borrower hereunder or require the Borrower to pay any other compensation to any Lender (including any expenses incurred or payable pursuant to Section 4.06 [Additional Compensation in Certain Circumstances]) which would otherwise not be incurred.

     Section 10.06 Notices. Any notice, request, demand, direction or other communication (for purposes of this Section 10.06 only, a “Notice”) to be given to or made upon any party hereto under any provision of this Agreement shall be given or made by telephone or in writing (which includes means of electronic transmission (i.e., “e-mail”) or facsimile transmission or by setting forth such Notice on a site on the world wide web (a “Website Posting”) if Notice of such Website Posting (including the information necessary to access such site) has previously been or is substantially contemporaneously delivered to the applicable parties hereto by another means set forth in this Section 10.06) in accordance with this Section 10.06. Any such Notice must be delivered to the applicable parties hereto at the addresses and numbers set forth under their respective names on Schedule 1.01(B) hereof or in accordance with any subsequent unrevoked Notice from any such party that is given in accordance with this Section 10.06. Any Notice shall be effective:

               (i) In the case of hand-delivery, when delivered;

               (ii) If given by mail, four days after such Notice is deposited with the United States Postal Service, with first-class postage prepaid, return receipt requested;

               (iii) In the case of a telephonic Notice, when a party is contacted by telephone, if delivery of such telephonic Notice is confirmed no later than the next Business Day by hand delivery, a facsimile or electronic transmission, a Website Posting or overnight courier delivery of a confirmatory notice (received at or before noon on such next Business Day);

               (iv) In the case of a facsimile transmission, when sent to the applicable party’s facsimile machine’s telephone number if the party sending such Notice receives confirmation of the delivery thereof from its own facsimile machine;

               (v) In the case of electronic transmission, when actually received;

               (vi) In the case of a Website Posting, upon delivery of a Notice of such posting (including the information necessary to access such web site) by another means set forth in this Section 10.06; and

               (vii) If given by any other means (including by overnight courier), when actually received. Any Lender giving a Notice to a Loan Party shall concurrently send a copy thereof to the Agent, and the Agent shall promptly notify the other Lenders of its receipt of such Notice.

     Section 10.07 Severability. The provisions of this Agreement are intended to be severable. If any provision of this Agreement shall be held invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part in any jurisdiction, such provision shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability without in any manner affecting the validity or enforceability thereof in any other jurisdiction or the remaining provisions hereof in any jurisdiction.

     Section 10.08 Governing Law. Each Letter of Credit and Section 2.09 [Letter of Credit Subfacility] shall be subject to the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits (1993 Revision), International Chamber of Commerce Publication No. 500, as the same may be revised or amended from time to time, and to the extent not inconsistent therewith, the internal laws of the State of Ohio without regard to its conflict of laws principles, and the balance of this Agreement shall be deemed to be a contract under the Laws of the State of Ohio and for all purposes shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Ohio without regard to its conflict of laws principles.

     Section 10.09 Prior Understanding. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents supersede all prior understandings and agreements, whether written or oral, between the parties hereto and thereto relating to the transactions provided for herein and therein, including any prior confidentiality agreements and commitments.

     Section 10.10 Duration; Survival. All representations and warranties of the Loan Parties contained herein or made in connection herewith shall survive the making of Loans and issuance of Letters of Credit and shall not be waived by the execution and delivery of this Agreement, any investigation by the Agent or the Lenders, the making of Loans, issuance of Letters of Credit, or payment in full of the Loans. All covenants and agreements of the Loan Parties contained in Section 7.01

[Affirmative Covenants], Section 7.02 [Negative Covenants] and Section 7.03 [Reporting Requirements] herein shall continue in full force and effect from and after the date hereof so long as the Borrower may borrow or request Letters of Credit hereunder and until termination of the Commitments and indefeasible payment in full of the Loans and expiration or termination of all Letters of Credit. All covenants and agreements of the Borrower contained herein relating to the payment of principal, interest, premiums, additional compensation or expenses and indemnification, including those set forth in Article IV [Payments] and Section 9.05 [Reimbursement of Agent by Borrower, Etc.], Section 9.07 [Reimbursement of Agent by Lenders, Etc.] and Section 10.03 [Reimbursement of Lenders by Borrower; Etc.], shall survive payment in full of the Loans, expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit and termination of the Commitments.

     Section 10.11 Assignments, Participations, Successors and Assigns.

          (a) This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the Lenders, the Agent, the Loan Parties and their respective successors and assigns, except that none of the Loan Parties may assign or transfer any of its rights and Obligations hereunder or any interest herein. Each Lender may, at its own cost, make assignments of or sell participations in all or any part of its Commitments and the Loans made by it to one or more banks or other entities, subject to the consent of the Borrower, each Issuing Bank, and the Agent with respect to any assignee, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, provided that (1) no consent of the Borrower shall be required (A) if an Event of Default exists and is continuing, or (B) in the case of an assignment by a Lender to an Affiliate of such Lender, and (2) any assignment by a Lender to a Person other than an Affiliate of such Lender may not be made in amounts less than the lesser of $5,000,000 or the amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment. The parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption Agreement, and deliver to the Agent a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 for each assignment (other than an assignment by a Lender to its Affiliate), and the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a completed administrative questionnaire in the form requested by Agent. In the case of an assignment, upon receipt by the Agent of the Assignment and Assumption Agreement, such questionnaire, the applicable fee and any required consent, the assignee shall have, to the extent of such assignment (unless otherwise provided therein), the same rights, benefits and obligations as it would have if it had been a signatory Lender hereunder, and the Commitments shall be adjusted accordingly.

          (b) Any assignee or participant which is not incorporated under the Laws of the United States of America or a state thereof shall deliver to the Borrower and the Agent the form of certificate described in Section 10.17 [Tax Withholding Clause] relating to federal income tax withholding. Each Lender may furnish any publicly available information concerning any Loan Party or its Subsidiaries and any other information concerning any Loan Party or its Subsidiaries in the possession of such Lender from time to time to assignees and participants (including prospective assignees or participants), provided that such assignees and participants agree to be bound by the provisions of Section 10.12 [Confidentiality].

          (c) Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, any Lender may at any time pledge or grant a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement, its Note (if any) and the other Loan Documents to any Federal Reserve Bank in accordance with Regulation A of the FRB or U.S. Treasury Regulation 31 CFR Section 203.14 without notice to or consent of the Borrower or the Agent. No such pledge or grant of a security interest shall release the transferor Lender of its obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document.

     Section 10.12 Confidentiality.

          (a) General. The Agent and the Lenders each agree to keep confidential all information obtained from any Loan Party or its Subsidiaries which is nonpublic and confidential or proprietary in nature (including any information the Borrower specifically designates as confidential), except as provided below, and to use such information only in connection with their respective capacities under this Agreement and for the purposes contemplated hereby. The Agent and the Lenders shall be permitted to disclose such information (i) to outside legal counsel, accountants and other professional advisors who need to know such information in connection with the administration and enforcement of this Agreement, subject to agreement of such Persons to maintain the confidentiality, (ii) to assignees and participants as contemplated by Section 10.11, and prospective assignees and participants, (iii) to the extent requested by any bank regulatory authority or, with notice to the Borrower, as otherwise required by applicable Law or by any subpoena or similar legal process, or in connection with any investigation or proceeding arising out of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (iv) if it becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Agreement or becomes available from a source not known to be subject to confidentiality restrictions, or (v) if the Borrower shall have consented to such disclosure.

          (b) Sharing Information With Affiliates of the Lenders. Each Loan Party acknowledges that from time to time financial advisory, investment banking and other services may be offered or provided to the Borrower or one or more of its Affiliates (in connection with this Agreement or otherwise) by any Lender or by one or more Subsidiaries or Affiliates of such Lender and each of the Loan Parties hereby authorizes each Lender to share any information delivered to such Lender by such Loan Party and its Subsidiaries pursuant to this Agreement, or in connection with the decision of such Lender to enter into this Agreement, to any such Subsidiary or Affiliate of such Lender, it being understood that any such Subsidiary or affiliate of any Lender receiving such information shall be bound by the provisions of Section 10.12(a) as if it were a Lender hereunder. Such Authorization shall survive the repayment of the Loans and other Obligations and the termination of the Commitments.

     Section 10.13 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed by different parties hereto on any number of separate counterparts, each of which, when so executed and delivered, shall be an original, and all such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same instrument.

     Section 10.14 Agent’s or Lender’s Consent. Except to the extent expressly otherwise set forth herein, whenever the Agent’s or any Lender’s consent is required to be obtained under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents as a condition to any action, inaction, condition or event, the Agent and each Lender shall be authorized to give or withhold such consent in its sole and absolute discretion and to condition its consent upon the giving of additional collateral, the payment of money or any other matter.

     Section 10.15 Exceptions. The representations, warranties and covenants contained herein shall be independent of each other, and no exception to any representation, warranty or covenant shall be deemed to be an exception to any other representation, warranty or covenant contained herein unless expressly provided, nor shall any such exceptions be deemed to permit any action or omission that would be in contravention of applicable Law.

     Section 10.16 CONSENT TO FORUM; WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH LOAN PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO THE NONEXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE COURT OF COMMON PLEAS OF FRANKLIN COUNTY AND THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF OHIO, EASTERN DIVISION, AND WAIVES PERSONAL SERVICE OF ANY AND ALL PROCESS UPON IT AND CONSENTS THAT ALL SUCH SERVICE

OF PROCESS BE MADE BY CERTIFIED OR REGISTERED MAIL DIRECTED TO SUCH LOAN PARTY AT THE ADDRESSES PROVIDED FOR IN Section 10.06 AND SERVICE SO MADE SHALL BE DEEMED TO BE COMPLETED UPON ACTUAL RECEIPT THEREOF. EACH LOAN PARTY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION TO JURISDICTION AND VENUE OF ANY ACTION INSTITUTED AGAINST IT AS PROVIDED HEREIN AND AGREES NOT TO ASSERT ANY DEFENSE BASED ON LACK OF JURISDICTION OR VENUE. EACH LOAN PARTY, THE AGENT AND THE LENDERS HEREBY WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, SUIT, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM OF ANY KIND ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE COLLATERAL TO THE FULL EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW.

     Section 10.17 Tax Withholding Clause. Each Lender or assignee or participant of a Lender that is not incorporated under the Laws of the United States of America or a state thereof (and, upon the written request of the Administrative Agent, each other Lender or assignee or participant of a Lender) agrees that it will deliver to each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent two (2) duly completed appropriate valid Withholding Certificates (as defined under § 1.1441-1(c)(16) of the Income Tax Regulations (the “Regulations”)) certifying its status (i.e. U.S. or foreign person) and, if appropriate, making a claim of reduced, or exemption from, U.S. withholding tax on the basis of an income tax treaty or an exemption provided by the Internal Revenue Code. The term “Withholding Certificate” means a Form W-9; a Form W-8BEN; a Form W-8ECI; a Form W-8IMY and the related statements and certifications as required under § 1.1441-1(e)(2) and/or (3) of the Regulations; a statement described in § 1.871-14(c)(2)(v) of the Regulations; or any other certificates under the Internal Revenue Code or Regulations that certify or establish the status of a payee or beneficial owner as a U.S. or foreign person. Each Lender, assignee or participant required to deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent a Withholding Certificate pursuant to the preceding sentence shall deliver such valid Withholding Certificate as follows: (A) each Lender which is a party hereto on the Closing Date shall deliver such valid Withholding Certificate at least five (5) Business Days prior to the first date on which any interest or fees are payable by the Borrower hereunder for the account of such Lender; (B) each assignee or participant shall deliver such valid Withholding Certificate at least five (5) Business Days before the effective date of such assignment or participation (unless the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion shall permit such assignee or participant to deliver such valid Withholding Certificate less than five (5) Business Days before such date in which case it shall be due on the date specified by the Administrative Agent). Each Lender, assignee or participant which so delivers a valid Withholding Certificate further undertakes to deliver to each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent two (2) additional copies of such Withholding Certificate (or a successor form) on or before the date that such Withholding Certificate expires or becomes obsolete or after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent Withholding Certificate so delivered by it, and such amendments thereto or extensions or renewals thereof as may be reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent. Notwithstanding the submission of a Withholding Certificate claiming a reduced rate of or exemption from U.S. withholding tax, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to withhold United States federal income taxes at the full 30% withholding rate if in its reasonable judgment it is required to do so under the due diligence requirements imposed upon a withholding agent under § 1.1441-7(b) of the Regulations. Further, the Agent is indemnified under § 1.1461-1(e) of the Regulations against any claims and demands of any Lender or assignee or participant of a Lender for the amount of any tax it deducts and withholds in accordance with regulations under § 1441 of the Internal Revenue Code.

     Section 10.18 Joinder of Guarantors. Any Subsidiary of the Borrower or another Loan Party which is required to join this Agreement as a Guarantor pursuant to Section 7.02(h) [Subsidiaries, Partnerships and Joint Ventures; Restricted Subsidiaries] or otherwise shall execute and deliver to the

Agent (i) a Guarantor Joinder in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit 1.01(G)(1) pursuant to which it shall join as a Guarantor each of the documents to which the Guarantors are parties; and (ii) documents in the forms described in Section 6.01 [First Loans] modified as appropriate to relate to such Subsidiary. The Loan Parties shall deliver such Guarantor Joinder and related documents to the Agent within (x) two (2) Business Days after the date on which a Subsidiary is no longer to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary, or (y) five (5) Business Days after the date of the filing of such Subsidiary’s articles of incorporation if the Subsidiary is not a corporation, the date of the filing of its certificate of limited partnership if it is a limited partnership or the date of its organization if it is an entity other than a limited partnership or corporation.

     Section 10.19 USA PATRIOT Act. Each Lender hereby notifies the Borrower and each Guarantor that pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Act”), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower and Guarantors, which information includes the name and address of the Borrower and Guarantors and other information that will allow such Lender to identify the Borrower and Guarantors in accordance with the Act.
