ARTICLE II
THE CREDIT FACILITIES

          Section 2.1  
The Revolving Credit Facility.
       
 
  2.1.1    
Revolving Credit Facility.
       
 

(a) Subject to and upon the provisions of this Agreement, the Lender establishes
during the Revolving Credit Commitment Period a revolving credit facility in
favor of the Borrowers (sometimes referred to in this Agreement as the
“Revolving Loan”) in an amount at any one time outstanding not to exceed the
lesser of (i) the Revolving Credit Committed Amount or (ii) the Borrowing Base.

(b) Subject to and upon the provisions of this Agreement, the Borrowers may
request Advances during the Revolving Credit Commitment Period in accordance
with the provisions of this Agreement; provided that after giving effect to the
Borrowers’ request, the aggregate Revolver Usage would not exceed the Revolving
Credit Committed Amount and:

(i) With respect to the Foreign Borrower, the aggregate Revolver Usage would not
exceed the lesser of (A) the Maximum Foreign Revolving Advance Amount or (B) the
Borrowing Base as calculated with respect to Eligible Foreign Receivables; and

(ii) With respect to the U.S. Obligors, the aggregate Revolver Usage would not
exceed the lesser of (A) the Maximum U.S. Revolving Advance Amount or (B) the
Borrowing Base as calculated with respect to Eligible U.S. Receivables.

(c) Unless sooner paid, the unpaid Revolving Loan, together with interest
accrued and unpaid thereon, and all other Obligations shall be due and payable
in full on the Revolving Credit Expiration Date.

(d) If at any time the Revolver Usage exceeds the Revolving Credit Committed
Amount in effect from time to time, the Borrower shall pay such excess to the
Lender ON DEMAND.

  2.1.2   Procedure for Making Advances Under the Revolving Loan; Lender
Protection Loans.

The Borrowers may borrow under the Revolving Credit Facility on any Business
Day. Advances under the Revolving Loan shall be withdrawn by Borrowers from
their sweep account with the Lender or shall be otherwise applied by Lender as
directed by the Borrowers, which direction the Lender may require to be in
writing.

2.1.3 Computation of Borrowing Base.

(a) The Borrowing Base shall be computed based on the Borrowing Base Report most
recently delivered to and accepted by the Lender in its Permitted Discretion.
The Borrowing Base shall be calculated separately with respect to the Foreign
Borrower based upon Eligible Foreign Receivables and the U.S. Obligors based
upon Eligible U.S. Receivables. In the event the Borrowers fail to furnish a
Borrowing Base Report required by Section 2.1.4 (Borrowing Base Report), or in
the event the Lender believes that a Borrowing Base Report is no longer
accurate, the Lender may, in its sole and absolute discretion exercised from
time to time and without limiting other rights and remedies under this
Agreement, suspend the making of or limit advances under the Revolving Loan. The
amount of the Borrowing Base shall be subject to reduction by the amount of
Reserves applicable from time to time and by the amount of any Receivable that
was included in the Borrowing Base but that the Lender determines fails to meet
the respective criteria applicable from time to time for Eligible Receivables.

(b) If at any time the aggregate Revolver Usage exceeds the Borrowing Base for
the Foreign Borrower or the U.S. Obligors, a borrowing base deficiency
(“Borrowing Base Deficiency”) shall exist. Each time a Borrowing Base Deficiency
exists, the Borrowers at the sole and absolute discretion of the Lender
exercised from time to time shall pay the Borrowing Base Deficiency ON DEMAND to
Lender.

(c) Without implying any limitation on the Lender’s discretion with respect to
the Borrowing Base, the criteria for Eligible Receivables contained in the
respective definitions of Eligible Receivables are in part based upon the
business operations of the Borrowers existing on or about the Closing Date and
upon information and records furnished to the Lender by the Borrowers. If at any
time or from time to time hereafter, the business operations of the Borrowers
change or such information and records furnished to the Lender is incorrect or
misleading, the Lender in its sole and absolute discretion, may at any time and
from time to time during the duration of this Agreement change such criteria or
add new criteria. The Lender shall communicate such changed or additional
criteria to the Borrowers from time to time either orally or in writing.

2.1.4 Borrowing Base Report.

The Borrowers will furnish to the Lender no less frequently than monthly within
twenty (20) days after the end of each month and at such other times as may be
requested by the Lender a report of the Borrowing Base (each a “Borrowing Base
Report”; collectively, the “Borrowing Base Reports”) in the form required from
time to time by the Lender, appropriately completed and duly signed. The
Borrowing Base Report shall contain the amount and payments on the Receivables
and the calculations of the Borrowing Base, all in such detail, and accompanied
by such supporting and other information, as the Lender may from time to time
request. Upon the Lender’s request and upon the creation of any Receivables, or
at such intervals as the Lender may require, the Borrowers will provide the
Lender with (a) confirmatory assignment schedules; (b) copies of Account Debtor
invoices; (c) evidence of shipment or delivery; and (d) such further schedules,
documents and/or information regarding the Receivables as the Lender may
reasonably require. The items to be provided under this subsection shall be in
form satisfactory to the Lender, and certified as true and correct by a
Responsible Officer (or, to the extent acceptable to the Lender from time to
time, by any other officers or employees of the Borrower whom a Responsible
Officer from time to time authorizes in writing to do so), and delivered to the
Lender from time to time solely for the Lender’s convenience in maintaining
records of the Collateral. Any Borrower’s failure to deliver any of such items
to the Lender shall not affect, terminate, modify, or otherwise limit the Liens
of the Lender in the Collateral.

2.1.5 Revolving Credit Note.

The obligation of the Borrowers to pay the Revolving Loan, with interest, shall
be evidenced by a promissory note (as from time to time extended, amended,
restated, supplemented or otherwise modified, the “Revolving Credit Note”)
substantially in the form of EXHIBIT A attached hereto and made a part hereof,
with appropriate insertions. The Revolving Credit Note shall be dated as of the
Closing Date, shall be payable to the order of the Lender at the times provided
in the Revolving Credit Note, and shall be in the principal amount of the
Revolving Credit Committed Amount. Each of the Borrowers acknowledges and agrees
that, if the outstanding principal balance of the Revolving Loan outstanding
from time to time exceeds the face amount of the Revolving Credit Note, the
excess shall bear interest at the rates provided from time to time for advances
under the Revolving Loan evidenced by the Revolving Credit Note and shall be
payable, with accrued interest, ON DEMAND. The Revolving Credit Note shall not
operate as a novation of any of the Obligations or nullify, discharge, or
release any such Obligations or the continuing contractual relationship of the
parties hereto in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.

2.1.6 Prepayments of Revolving Loan.

(a) The Borrower shall have the option, at any time and from time to time, to
prepay (each a “Revolving Loan Optional Prepayment” and collectively the
“Revolving Loan Optional Prepayments”) the Revolving Loan, in whole or in part
without premium or penalty.

(b) The Borrower shall make the mandatory prepayments (each a “Revolving Loan
Mandatory Prepayment” and collectively, the “Revolving Loan Mandatory
Prepayments”) of the Revolving Loan at any time and from time to time in such
amounts requested by the Lender pursuant to Section 2.1.3 (Computation of
Borrowing Base) in order to cover any Borrowing Base Deficiency and as otherwise
requested or demanded by the Lender pursuant the other terms of this Agreement.

2.1.7 Revolving Credit Unused Line Fee.

The Borrowers shall pay to the Lender a revolving credit facility fee
(collectively, the “Revolving Credit Unused Line Fees” and individually, a
“Revolving Credit Unused Line Fee”) in an amount equal to one-quarter of one
percent (0.25%) per annum on the average daily unused and undisbursed portion of
the Revolving Credit Committed Amount in effect from time to time accruing
during each calendar month. The accrued and unpaid portion of the Revolving
Credit Unused Line Fee shall be paid by the Borrowers to the Lender on the first
day of each calendar quarter, in arrears, commencing on April 1, 2012, and on
the Revolving Credit Termination Date.

2.1.8 Required Availability.

At no time shall Availability be less than zero ($0.00). By requesting and by
accepting an Advance or other Revolver Usage, the Borrowers shall thereby
represent and warrant that the Borrowers are in compliance with this Section
both immediately before and immediately after the making of the Advance or other
Revolver Usage requested.

          Section 2.2  
Reserved.
       
 
Section 2.3  
The Letter of Credit Facility.
       
 
  2.3.1    
Letters of Credit.
       
 

Subject to and upon the provisions of this Agreement, and as a part of the
Revolving Credit Commitment, each of the Borrowers, upon the prior approval of
the Lender, may obtain standby and commercial letters of credit (as the same may
from time to time be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified, each a “Letter
of Credit” and collectively the “Letters of Credit”) from the Lender from time
to time from the Closing Date until the Business Day preceding the Revolving
Credit Termination Date. The Borrowers will not be entitled to obtain a Letter
of Credit unless (a) after giving effect to the request, the aggregate Revolver
Usage would not exceed the lesser of (i) the Revolving Credit Committed Amount,
or (ii) the most current Borrowing Base (b) the sum of the aggregate face amount
of the then outstanding Letters of Credit (including the face amount of the
requested Letter of Credit) does not exceed the Letter of Credit Sublimit, and
(c) the purpose of such Letter of Credit shall be reasonably acceptable to the
Lender.

2.3.2 Letter of Credit Fees.

Prior to or simultaneously with the opening of each Letter of Credit, the
Borrowers shall pay to the Lender, a letter of credit fee (each a “Letter of
Credit Fee” and collectively the “Letter of Credit Fees”) in an amount equal to
one and one-half percent (1.5%) of the face amount of the Letter of Credit. The
Letter of Credit Fees shall be paid upon the opening of each Letter of Credit
and upon each quarter thereafter, in advance, so that Borrowers shall pay
one-fourth of the annual Letter of Credit Fee each quarter. In addition, the
Borrowers shall pay to the Lender, for its own account, any and all additional
issuance, negotiation, processing, transfer or other fees to the extent and as
and when required by the provisions of any Letter of Credit Agreement. All such
additional fees are included in and are a part of the “Fees” payable by the
Borrowers under the provisions of this Agreement and are for the sole and
exclusive benefit of the Lender and are a part of the Obligations.

2.3.3 Terms of Letters of Credit.

Each Letter of Credit shall (a) be opened pursuant to a Letter of Credit
Agreement and (b) expire on a date not later than thirty (30) days preceding the
Revolving Credit Expiration Date; provided, however, if any Letter of Credit
does have an expiration date later than thirty (30) days preceding the Revolving
Credit Termination Date (each a “Post-Expiration Date Letter of Credit” and
collectively, the “Post-Expiration Date Letters of Credit”), effective as of the
Business Day preceding the Revolving Credit Termination Date and without prior
notice to or the consent of the Borrowers, the Lender may, in the exercise of
its sole and absolute discretion from time to time, make advances under the
Revolving Loan for the account of the Borrowers in the aggregate face amount of
one hundred five percent (105%) of all such Letters of Credit. The Lender shall
deposit the proceeds of such advances into one or more interest bearing accounts
with and in the name of the Lender and over which the Lender alone shall have
exclusive power of access and withdrawal (collectively, the “Letter of Credit
Cash Collateral Account”). The Letter of Credit Cash Collateral Account is to be
held by the Lender as additional collateral and security for any Letter of
Credit Obligations relating to the Post-Expiration Date Letters of Credit. Each
Borrower hereby assigns, pledges, grants and sets over to the Lender a first
priority security interest in, and Lien on, all of the funds on deposit in the
Letter of Credit Cash Collateral Account, together with any and all proceeds
(cash and non-cash) and products thereof as additional collateral and security
for the Letter of Credit Obligations relating to the Post-Expiration Date
Letters of Credit and all other Obligations. Each Borrower acknowledges and
agrees that the Lender shall be entitled to fund any draw or draft on any
Post-Expiration Date Letter of Credit from the monies on deposit in the Letter
of Credit Cash Collateral Account without notice to or consent of any Borrower
or the Lender. Each Borrower further acknowledges and agrees that the Lender’s
election to fund any draw or draft on any Post-Expiration Date Letter of Credit
from the Letter of Credit Cash Collateral shall in no way limit, impair, lessen,
reduce, release or otherwise adversely affect its obligation to pay any Letter
of Credit Obligations under or relating to the Post-Expiration Date Letters of
Credit. At such time as all Post-Expiration Date Letters of Credit have expired
and all Letter of Credit Obligations relating to the Post-Expiration Date
Letters of Credit have been paid in full, the Lender agrees (i) to apply the
amount of any remaining funds on deposit in the Letter of Credit Cash Collateral
Account to the then unpaid balance of the Obligations in such order and manner
as the Lender shall determine in its sole and absolute discretion in accordance
with the provisions of this Agreement, or (ii) to release the remaining funds to
Borrowers if there are no outstanding Obligations. For the avoidance of doubt,
the Lender shall have no obligation to release (pursuant to Section 3.7
(Release) or otherwise) all or any Collateral that secures the Letter of Credit
Obligations (whether or not then due and whether or not fixed or contingent)
until all Letter of Credit Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full in
cash and all commitments to provide further Letters of Credit have been
terminated.

The aggregate face amount of all Letters of Credit at any one time outstanding
and issued by the Lender pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement,
including, without limitation, any and all Post-Expiration Date Letters of
Credit, plus the amount of any unpaid Letter of Credit Fees accrued or scheduled
to accrue thereon, and less the aggregate amount of all drafts issued under or
purporting to have been issued under such Letters of Credit that have been paid
by the Lender and for which the Lender has been reimbursed by the Borrowers in
full in accordance with Section 2.3.5 below and the Letter of Credit Agreements,
and for which the Lender has no further obligation or commitment to restore all
or any portion of the amounts drawn and reimbursed, is herein called the
“Outstanding Letter of Credit Obligations”.

2.3.4 Procedures for Letters of Credit.

The Borrowers shall give the Lender written notice at least five (5) Business
Days prior to the date on which the Borrower desires the Lender to issue a
Letter of Credit. Such notice shall be accompanied by a duly executed Letter of
Credit Agreement specifying, among other things: (a) the name and address of the
intended beneficiary of the Letter of Credit, (b) the requested face amount of
the Letter of Credit, (c) whether the Letter of Credit is to be revocable or
irrevocable, (d) the Business Day on which the Letter of Credit is to be opened
and the date on which the Letter of Credit is to expire, (e) the terms of
payment of any draft or drafts which may be drawn under the Letter of Credit,
and (f) any other terms or provisions the Borrowers desire to be contained in
the Letter of Credit. Such notice shall also be accompanied by such other
information, certificates, confirmations, and other items as the Lender may
require to assure that the Letter of Credit is to be issued in accordance with
the provisions of this Agreement and a Letter of Credit Agreement. In the event
of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and the provisions of a
Letter of Credit Agreement, the provisions of this Agreement shall prevail and
control unless otherwise expressly provided in the Letter of Credit Agreement.
Upon (x) receipt of such notice, (y) payment of all Letter of Credit Fees and
all other Fees payable in connection with the issuance of such Letter of Credit,
and (z) receipt of a duly executed Letter of Credit Agreement, the Lender shall
process such notice and Letter of Credit Agreement in accordance with its
customary procedures and open such Letter of Credit on the Business Day
specified in such notice.

2.3.5 Payments of Letters of Credit.

The Borrowers hereby promise to pay to the Lender, ON DEMAND and in United
States Dollars, the following which are herein collectively referred to as the
“Letter of Credit Current Obligations”:

(a) the amount which the Lender has paid or will be required to pay under each
draft or draw on a Letter of Credit, whether such demand be in advance of the
Lender’s payment or for reimbursement for such payment;

(b) any and all reasonable charges and expenses which the Lender may pay or
incur relative to the Letter of Credit and/or such draws or drafts; and

(c) interest on the amounts described in (a) and (b) not paid by the Borrowers
as and when due and payable under the provisions of (a) and (b) above from the
day the same are due and payable until paid in full (subject to any applicable
notice or grace period) at a rate per annum equal to Post-Default Rate for the
Revolving Loan.

In addition, the Borrowers hereby promise to pay any and all other Letter of
Credit Obligations as and when due and payable in accordance with the provisions
of this Agreement and the Letter of Credit Agreements. The obligation of the
Borrowers to pay Letter of Credit Current Obligations and all other Letter of
Credit Obligations shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all
circumstances and irrespective of any setoff, counterclaim or defense to payment
which the Borrowers or any other account party may have or have had against the
beneficiary of such Letter of Credit, the Lender, or any other Person,
including, without limitation, any defense based on the failure of any draft or
draw to conform to the terms of such Letter of Credit, any draft or other
document proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid, or the legality, validity,
regularity or enforceability of such Letter of Credit, any draft or other
documents presented with any draft, any Letter of Credit Agreement, this
Agreement, or any of the other Financing Documents, unless the Lender had actual
knowledge of the same, and irrespective of any Collateral, security or guarantee
therefor or right of offset with respect thereto and irrespective of any other
circumstances whatsoever which constitutes, or might be construed to constitute,
an equitable or legal discharge of the Borrowers for any Letter of Credit
Obligations, in bankruptcy or otherwise; provided, however, that the Borrowers
shall not be obligated to reimburse the Lender for any wrongful payment under
such Letter of Credit made as a result of the Lender’s gross negligence or
willful misconduct. The obligation of the Borrowers to pay the Letter of Credit
Obligations shall not be conditioned or contingent upon the pursuit by the
Lender or any other Person at any time of any right or remedy against any Person
which may be or become liable in respect of all or any part of such obligation
or against any Collateral, security or guarantee therefor or right of offset
with respect thereto.

The Letter of Credit Obligations shall continue to be effective, or be
reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment of all or any portion of
the Letter of Credit Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or
returned by the Lender upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation
or reorganization of any Person, or upon or as a result of the appointment of a
receiver, intervenor, or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, any
Person, or any substantial part of such Person’s property, all as though such
payments had not been made.

2.3.6 Change in Law; Increased Cost.

If any change in any law or regulation or in the interpretation thereof by any
court or other Governmental Authority charged with the administration thereof
shall either (a) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit
or similar requirement against Letters of Credit issued by the Lender, or
(b) impose on the Lender any other condition regarding this Agreement or any
Letter of Credit, and the result of any event referred to in clauses (a) or
(b) above shall be to increase the cost to the Lender of issuing, maintaining or
extending the Letter of Credit or the cost to the Lender of funding any
obligation under or in connection with the Letter of Credit (which increase in
cost shall be the result of the Lender’s reasonable allocation of the aggregate
of such cost increases resulting from such events), then, upon demand by the
Lender, the Borrowers shall immediately pay to the Lender from time to time as
specified by the Lender, additional amounts that shall be sufficient to
compensate the Lender for such increased cost, together with interest on each
such amount from the date demanded until payment in full thereof at a rate per
annum equal to the then highest current non-default rate of interest on the
Revolving Loan. A certificate as to such increased cost incurred by the Lender,
submitted by the Lender to the Borrowers, shall be conclusive, absent manifest
error.

2.3.7 General Letter of Credit Provisions.

The Borrowers hereby instruct the Lender to pay any draft complying with the
terms of any Letter of Credit irrespective of any instructions of the Borrowers
to the contrary. The Borrowers assume all risks of the acts and omissions of the
beneficiary and other users of any Letter of Credit. The Lender and its
respective branches, Affiliates and/or correspondents shall not be responsible
for and the Borrowers hereby indemnify and hold the Lender and its respective
branches, Affiliates and/or correspondents harmless from and against all
liability, loss and expense (including reasonable attorney’s fees and costs)
incurred by the Lender and/or their respective branches, Affiliates and/or
correspondents relative to and/or as a consequence of (a) any failure by the
Borrowers to perform the agreements hereunder and under any Letter of Credit
Agreement, (b) any Letter of Credit Agreement, this Agreement, any Letter of
Credit and any draft, draw and/or acceptance under or purported to be under any
Letter of Credit, (c) any action taken or omitted by the Lender and/or any of
its respective branches, Affiliates and/or correspondents at the request of the
Borrowers, (d) any failure or inability to perform in accordance with the terms
of any Letter of Credit by reason of any control or restriction rightfully or
wrongfully exercised by any de facto or de jure Governmental Authority, group or
individual asserting or exercising governmental or paramount powers, and/or
(e) any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of the Lender and/or
any of its respective branches, Affiliates and/or correspondents; provided,
however, that the Borrowers shall not be obligated to indemnify Lender for any
actions, consequences or losses attributable to Lender’s gross negligence or
willful misconduct. Each of the Borrowers acknowledges and agrees that this
indemnification shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the
Commitments and the payment and performance of all of the other Obligations.

Except for gross negligence or willful misconduct, the Lender and its respective
branches, Affiliates and/or correspondents, shall not be liable or responsible
in any respect for any (a) error, omission, interruption or delay in
transmission, dispatch or delivery of any one or more messages or advices in
connection with any Letter of Credit, whether transmitted by cable, telegraph,
mail or otherwise and despite any cipher or code which may be employed, and/or
(b) action, inaction or omission which may be taken or suffered by it or them in
good faith or through inadvertence in identifying or failing to identify any
beneficiary or otherwise in connection with any Letter of Credit.

Any Letter of Credit may be amended, modified or revoked only upon the receipt
by the Lender from the Borrowers and the beneficiary (including any transferee
and/or assignee of the original beneficiary), of a written consent and request
therefor.

If any Laws, order of court and/or ruling or regulation of any Governmental
Authority of the United States (or any state thereof) and/or any country other
than the United States permits a beneficiary under a Letter of Credit to require
the Lender and/or any of its respective branches, Affiliates and/or
correspondents to pay drafts under or purporting to be under a Letter of Credit
after the expiration date of the Letter of Credit, the Borrowers shall reimburse
the Lender, as appropriate, for any such payment pursuant to provisions of
Section 2.3.6 (Change in Law; Increased Cost).

Except as may otherwise be specifically provided in a Letter of Credit or Letter
of Credit Agreement, the laws of the State and the Uniform Customs and Practice
for Documentary Credits, 1993 Revision, International Chamber of Commerce
Publication No. 500 (the “UCP”) shall govern commercial Letters of Credit and
the International Standby Practices, 1998, International Chamber of Commerce
Publication No. 590 (the “ISP”) shall govern standby letters of credit. The
provisions of the UCP and ISP are hereby incorporated by reference. In the event
of a conflict between the UCP and ISP and the laws of the State, the UCP and ISP
shall prevail.

(c) For purposes of the Interest Act (Canada) and disclosure thereunder,
whenever any interest or any fee to be paid hereunder or in connection herewith
is to be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year, the yearly rate of interest
to which the rate used in such calculation is equivalent is the rate so used
multiplied by the actual number of days in the calendar year in which the same
is to be ascertained and divided by 360. The rates of interest under this
Agreement are nominal rates, and not effective rates or yields. The principle of
deemed reinvestment of interest does not apply to any interest calculation under
this Agreement.

(d) Any provision of this Agreement that would oblige the Foreign Borrower to
pay any fine, penalty, or rate of interest on any arrears of principal or
interest secured by a mortgage on real property or hypothec or immovable that
has the effect of increasing the charge on arrears beyond the rate of interest
payable on principal money not in arrears shall not apply to such Foreign
Borrower, which shall be required to pay interest on money in arrears at the
same rate of interest payable on principal money not in arrears.

(e) If any provision of this Agreement would oblige a Foreign Borrower to make
any payment of interest or other amount payable to any Lender in an amount or
calculated at a rate which would be prohibited by law or would result in a
receipt by that Lender of “interest” at a “criminal rate” (as such terms are
construed under the Criminal Code (Canada)), then, notwithstanding such
provision, such amount or rate shall be deemed to have been adjusted with
retroactive effect to the maximum amount or rate of interest, as the case may
be, as would not be so prohibited by applicable law or so result in a receipt by
that Lender of “interest” at a “criminal rate,” such adjustment to be effected,
to the extent necessary (but only to the extent necessary), as follows:

(i) first, by reducing the amount or rate of interest; and

(ii) thereafter, by reducing any fees, commissions, costs, expenses, premiums
and other amounts required to be paid which would constitute interest for
purposes of section 347 of the Criminal Code (Canada).

2.4.2 Payment of Interest.

Unpaid and accrued interest on any portion of the Loans which consists of a Base
Rate Loan shall be due and payable paid monthly, in arrears, on the first day of
each calendar month, commencing on the first such date after the date of this
Agreement, and on the first day of each calendar month thereafter, and at
maturity (whether by acceleration, declaration, extension or otherwise).

2.4.3 Field Examination Fees.

The Borrowers shall pay to the Lender a field examination fee (collectively, the
“Field Examination Fees” and individually a “Field Examination Fee”), which
Field Examination Fees shall be payable at the time of each field examination in
an amount equal to the sum of a $300 administrative fee plus $850 per field
examiner per day plus reimbursement of all out-of-pocket expenses and costs or
in such other amounts as customarily charged by the Lender for the type of field
examination conducted.

2.4.4 Computation of Interest and Fees.

All applicable Fees and interest shall be calculated on the basis of a year of
360 days for the actual number of days elapsed. Any change in the interest rate
on any of the Obligations resulting from a change in the Daily LIBOR Rate shall
become effective as of the opening of business on the day on which such change
in the Daily LIBOR Rate is announced.

2.4.5 Maximum Interest Rate.

In no event shall any interest rate provided for hereunder exceed the maximum
rate permissible for corporate borrowers under applicable law for loans of the
type provided for hereunder (the “Maximum Rate”). If, in any month, any interest
rate, absent such limitation, would have exceeded the Maximum Rate, then the
interest rate for that month shall be the Maximum Rate, and, if in future
months, that interest rate would otherwise be less than the Maximum Rate, then
that interest rate shall remain at the Maximum Rate until such time as the
amount of interest paid hereunder equals the amount of interest that would have
been paid if the same had not been limited by the Maximum Rate. In the event
that, upon payment in full of the Obligations, the total amount of interest paid
or accrued under the terms of this Agreement is less than the total amount of
interest that would, but for this Section, have been paid or accrued if the
interest rates otherwise set forth in this Agreement had at all times been in
effect, then the Borrowers shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, pay
the Lender, an amount equal to the excess of (a) the lesser of (i) the amount of
interest that would have been charged if the Maximum Rate had, at all times,
been in effect or (ii) the amount of interest that would have accrued had the
interest rates otherwise set forth in this Agreement, at all times, been in
effect over (b) the amount of interest actually paid or accrued under this
Agreement. In the event that a court determines that the Lender has received
interest and other charges hereunder in excess of the Maximum Rate, such excess
shall be deemed received on account of, and shall automatically be applied to
reduce, the Obligations other than interest, in the inverse order of maturity,
and if there are no Obligations outstanding, the Lender shall refund to the
Borrowers such excess.

          Section 2.5  
General Financing Provisions.
       
 
  2.5.1    
Borrowers’ Representatives.
       
 

(a) The Borrowers hereby represent and warrant to the Lender that each of them
will derive benefits, directly and indirectly, from each Loan and Revolver
Usage, both in their separate capacity and as a member of the integrated group
to which each of the Borrowers belong and because the successful operation of
the integrated group is dependent upon the continued successful performance of
the functions of the integrated group as a whole, because (a) the terms of the
consolidated financing provided under this Agreement are more favorable than
would otherwise would be obtainable by the Borrowers individually, and (b) the
Borrowers’ additional administrative and other costs and reduced flexibility
associated with individual financing arrangements which would otherwise be
required if obtainable would substantially reduce the value to the Borrowers of
the financing. The Borrowers in the discretion of their respective managements
are to agree among themselves as to the allocation of the proceeds of Loans and
the benefits of Revolver Usage, provided, however, that the Borrowers shall be
deemed to have represented and warranted to the Lender at the time of allocation
that each benefit and use of proceeds is a Permitted Use.

(b) For administrative convenience, each Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints
the Borrower Agent as the Borrower’s attorney-in-fact, with power of
substitution (with the prior written consent of the Lender in the exercise of
its sole and absolute discretion), in the name of the Borrower Agent or in the
name of the Borrower or otherwise to take any and all actions with respect to
the this Agreement, the other Financing Documents, the Obligations and/or the
Collateral (including, without limitation, the proceeds thereof) as the Borrower
Agent may so elect from time to time, including, without limitation, actions to
(i) request advances under the Loans and other Credit Facilities, apply for and
direct the benefits of Bank Products, and direct the Lender to disburse or
credit the proceeds of any Loan or other Credit Facility directly to an account
of the Borrower Agent, any one or more of the Borrowers or otherwise, which
direction shall evidence the making of such Loan or other Credit Facility and
shall constitute the acknowledgement by each of the Borrowers of the receipt of
the proceeds of such Loan or other Credit Facility or the benefit of such Bank
Products, (ii) enter into, execute, deliver, amend, modify, restate, substitute,
extend and/or renew this Agreement, any other Financing Documents, security
agreements, mortgages, deposit account agreements, instruments, certificates,
waivers, letter of credit applications, releases, documents and agreements from
time to time, and (iii) endorse any check or other item of payment in the name
of the Borrower or in the name of the Borrower Agent. The foregoing appointment
is coupled with an interest, cannot be revoked without the prior written consent
of the Lender, and may be exercised from time to time through the Borrower
Agent’s duly authorized officer, officers or other Person or Persons designated
by the Borrower Agent to act from time to time on behalf of the Borrower Agent.

(c) Each of the Borrowers hereby irrevocably authorizes the Lender to make Loans
or other Credit Facilities to any one or more of the Borrowers, and hereby
irrevocably authorizes the Lender to issue or cause to be issued letters of
credit or other Bank Products for the account of any or all of the Borrowers,
pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement or otherwise upon the written, oral
or telephone request of any one or more of the Persons who is from time to time
a Responsible Officer of a Borrower under the provisions of the most recent
certificate of resolutions and/or incumbency of the Borrowers on file with the
Lender and also upon the written, oral or telephone request of any one of the
Persons who is from time to time a Responsible Officer of the Borrower Agent
under the provisions of the most recent certificate of resolutions and/or
incumbency for the Borrower Agent on file with the Lender.

(d) The Lender assumes no responsibility or liability for any errors, mistakes,
and/or discrepancies in the oral, telephonic, written or other transmissions of
any instructions, orders, requests and confirmations between the Lender and the
Borrowers in connection with the Credit Facilities, any Loan, any other
Facilities, or any other transaction in connection with the provisions of this
Agreement. Without implying any limitation on the joint and several nature of
the Obligations, the Lender agrees that, notwithstanding any other provision of
this Agreement, the Borrowers may create reasonable inter-company indebtedness
between or among the Borrowers with respect to the allocation of the benefits
and proceeds of the advances and Credit Facilities under this Agreement. The
Borrowers agree among themselves, and the Lender consents to that agreement,
that each Borrower shall have rights of contribution from all of the other
Borrowers to the extent such Borrower incurs Obligations in excess of the
proceeds of the Loans or other benefits received by, or allocated to purposes
for the direct benefit of, such Borrower. All such indebtedness and rights shall
be, and are hereby agreed by the Borrowers to be, subordinate in priority and
payment to the indefeasible repayment in full in cash of the Obligations, and,
unless the Lender agrees in writing otherwise, shall not be exercised or repaid
in whole or in part until all of the Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in
full in cash. The Borrowers agree that all of such inter-company indebtedness
and rights of contribution are part of the Collateral and secure the
Obligations. Each Borrower hereby waives all rights of counterclaim, recoupment
and offset between or among themselves arising on account of that indebtedness
and otherwise. Each Borrower shall not evidence the inter-company indebtedness
or rights of contribution by note or other instrument, and shall not secure such
indebtedness or rights of contribution with any Lien or security.
Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, the amount
covered by each Borrower under the Obligations (including, without limitation,
Section 2.5.11 (Guaranty)) shall be limited to an aggregate amount (after giving
effect to any collections from, rights to receive contribution from or payments
made by or on behalf of any other Borrower in respect of the Obligations) which,
together with other amounts owing by such Borrowers to the Lender under the
Obligations, is equal to the largest amount that would not be subject to
avoidance under the Bankruptcy Code or any applicable provisions of any
applicable, comparable state or other Laws.

2.5.2 Use of Proceeds of the Loans.

The proceeds of each advance under the Loans shall be used by the Borrowers for
Permitted Uses, and for no other purposes except as may otherwise be agreed by
the Lender in writing.

2.5.3 Payments.

All payments of the Obligations, including, without limitation, principal,
interest, Prepayments, and Fees, shall be paid by the Borrower without setoff,
recoupment or counterclaim to the Lender in immediately available funds not
later than 12:00 noon (Eastern Time) on the due date of such payment from
Borrowers’ sweep account at the Lender. If there are insufficient funds in
Borrowers’ sweep account to make any required payment to Lender, all such
payments shall be made to the Lender’s office at such location as the Lender may
at any time and from time to time specify to the Borrowers. Alternatively, at
its sole and absolute discretion, the Lender may charge any deposit account of
any Borrower at the Lender or any Affiliate of the Lender with all or any part
of any amount due to the Lender under this Agreement or any of the other
Financing Documents to the extent that the Borrowers shall have not otherwise
tendered payment to the Lender. Except as provided elsewhere in this Agreement
of in the other Financing Documents, all payments shall be applied first to any
and all accrued and unpaid late charges and Enforcement Costs, second to any
unpaid Fees, third to any and all accrued and unpaid interest on the
Obligations, and then to the then unpaid principal balance of the Obligations,
all in such order and manner as shall be determined by the Lender in its sole
and absolute discretion.

2.5.4 Computation of Interest and Fees.

All applicable Fees and interest shall be calculated on the basis of a year of
360 days for the actual number of days elapsed. Any change in the interest rate
on any of the Obligations resulting from a change in the Daily LIBOR Rate shall
become effective as of the opening of business on the day on which such change
in the Daily LIBOR Rate is announced.

2.5.5 Maximum Interest Rate.

In no event shall any interest rate provided for hereunder exceed the maximum
rate permissible for corporate borrowers under applicable law for loans of the
type provided for hereunder (the “Maximum Rate”). If, in any month, any interest
rate, absent such limitation, would have exceeded the Maximum Rate, then the
interest rate for that month shall be the Maximum Rate, and, if in future
months, that interest rate would otherwise be less than the Maximum Rate, then
that interest rate shall remain at the Maximum Rate until such time as the
amount of interest paid hereunder equals the amount of interest that would have
been paid if the same had not been limited by the Maximum Rate. In the event
that, upon payment in full of the Obligations, the total amount of interest paid
or accrued under the terms of this Agreement is less than the total amount of
interest that would, but for this Section, have been paid or accrued if the
interest rates otherwise set forth in this Agreement had at all times been in
effect, then the Borrowers shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, pay
the Lender, an amount equal to the excess of (a) the lesser of (i) the amount of
interest that would have been charged if the Maximum Rate had, at all times,
been in effect or (ii) the amount of interest that would have accrued had the
interest rates otherwise set forth in this Agreement, at all times, been in
effect over (b) the amount of interest actually paid or accrued under this
Agreement. In the event that a court determines that the Lender has received
interest and other charges hereunder in excess of the Maximum Rate, such excess
shall be deemed received on account of, and shall automatically be applied to
reduce, the Obligations other than interest, in the inverse order of maturity,
and if there are no Obligations outstanding, the Lender shall refund to the
Borrowers such excess.

2.5.6 Liens; Setoff.

The Borrowers hereby grant to the Lender a continuing Lien for all of the
Obligations upon any and all monies, securities, and other property of the
Borrowers and the proceeds thereof, now or hereafter held or received by or in
transit to, the Lender, and/or any Affiliate of the Lender, from or for the
Borrowers, and also upon any and all deposit accounts (general or special) and
credits of the Borrowers, if any, with the Lender or any Affiliate of the
Lender, at any time existing, excluding any deposit accounts held by the
Borrowers in their capacity as trustee for Persons who are not Borrowers or
Affiliates of the Borrowers. Without implying any limitation on any other rights
the Lender may have under the Financing Documents or applicable Laws, during the
continuance of an Event of Default, the Lender is hereby authorized by the
Borrowers at any time and from time to time, without notice to the Borrowers, to
set off, appropriate and apply any or all items hereinabove referred to against
all Obligations then outstanding (whether or not then due), all in such order
and manner as shall be determined by the Lender in its sole and absolute
discretion. The Lender shall have no obligation, however, to apply to the
Obligations any proceeds from Receivables, any other Collateral, other
obligation or property of any kind due from, owed by or belonging to, a
Sanctioned Person.

2.5.7 Requirements of Law.

In the event that the Lender shall have determined in good faith that (a) the
adoption of any Capital Adequacy Regulation, or (b) any change in any Capital
Adequacy Regulation or in the interpretation or application thereof or
(c) compliance by the Lender or any corporation controlling the Lender with any
request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force
of law) from any Governmental Authority or central bank, does or shall have the
effect of reducing the rate of return on the capital of the Lender or such
controlling corporation, as a consequence of the Lender’s obligations under this
Agreement to a level below that which the Lender or such corporation would have
achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration
the policies of the Lender and its controlling corporation, with respect to
capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by the Lender, in its and absolute
discretion, to be material, then from time to time, after submission by the
Lender to the Borrower of a written request therefor and a statement of the
basis for the Lender’s determination, the Borrower shall pay to the Lender ON
DEMAND such additional amount or amounts in order to compensate the Lender or
its controlling corporation for any such reduction.

2.5.8 [Intentionally Omitted].

2.5.9 Prepayment on Certain Events.

Unless the Lender agrees otherwise from time to time and except as provided in
Section 6.2.18 (Disposition of Collateral) or as expressly provided in other
Financing Documents, upon the sale or other disposition by any Borrower of
Equipment or of any other assets outside of the ordinary course of business or
upon the sale or other disposition of any real property that is subject to a
Lien in favor of the Lender, or if any such Equipment, other assets or real
property are damaged, destroyed or taken by condemnation in whole or in part,
the proceeds thereof may be utilized by Borrower to replace such Equipment up to
Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($200,000.00) of proceeds. If the proceeds exceed
Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($200,000.00), the proceeds shall be paid by such
Borrower to the Lender as a mandatory prepayment of the Obligations in such
order or to the reduction of Commitments, or be released to Borrower to replace
the Equipment, or a combination of both, as the Lender may elect from time to
time in its sole discretion. Further notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in
this Section shall be deemed to imply or require the Lender’s consent to any
action or event described above that is otherwise prohibited, limited, or
subject to consent by the terms of this Agreement, the other Financing
Documents, or under other applicable Laws.

2.5.10 PATRIOT Act Notice.

The Lender hereby gives the Borrowers notice that pursuant to the requirements
of the PATRIOT Act, the Lender is required to obtain, verify and record
information that identifies the Borrowers, which information includes the name
and address of the Borrowers and other information that will allow the Lender to
identify the Borrowers in accordance with the PATRIOT Act.

2.5.11 Guaranty.

(a) Each Borrower hereby unconditionally and irrevocably, guarantees to the
Lender:

(i) the due and punctual payment in full (and not merely the collectibility) by
the other Borrowers of the Obligations, including unpaid and accrued interest
thereon, in each case when due and payable, all according to the terms of this
Agreement, the Notes and the other Financing Documents;

(ii) the due and punctual payment in full (and not merely the collectibility) by
the other Borrowers of all other sums and charges which may at any time be due
and payable in accordance with this Agreement, the Notes or any of the other
Financing Documents;

(iii) the due and punctual performance by the other Borrowers of all of the
other terms, covenants and conditions contained in the Financing Documents; and

(iv) all the other Obligations of the other Borrowers.

(b) The obligations and liabilities of each Borrower as a guarantor under this
Section 2.5.11 shall be absolute and unconditional and joint and several,
irrespective of the genuineness, validity, priority, regularity or
enforceability of this Agreement, any of the Notes or any of the Financing
Documents or any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or
equitable discharge of a surety or guarantor. Each Borrower in its capacity as a
guarantor expressly agrees that the Lender may, in its sole and absolute
discretion, without notice to or further assent of such Borrower and without in
any way releasing, affecting or in any way impairing the joint and several
obligations and liabilities of such Borrower as a guarantor hereunder:

(i) waive compliance with, or any defaults under, or grant any other indulgences
under or with respect to any of the Financing Documents;

(ii) modify, amend, change or terminate any provisions of any of the Financing
Documents;

(iii) grant extensions or renewals of or with respect to the Credit Facilities,
the Notes or any of the other Financing Documents;

(iv) effect any release, subordination, compromise or settlement in connection
with this Agreement, any of the Notes or any of the other Financing Documents;

(v) agree to the substitution, exchange, release or other disposition of the
Collateral or any part thereof, or any other collateral for the Loan or to the
subordination of any lien or security interest therein;

(vi) make advances for the purpose of performing any term, provision or covenant
contained in this Agreement, any of the Notes or any of the other Financing
Documents with respect to which the Borrowers shall then be in default;

(vii) make future advances pursuant to the Financing Agreement or any of the
other Financing Documents;

(viii) assign, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise transfer the Commitments, the
Obligations, the Notes, any of the other Financing Documents or any interest
therein, all as and to the extent permitted by the provisions of this Agreement;

(ix) deal in all respects with the other Borrowers as if this Section 2.5.11
were not in effect;

(x) effect any release, compromise or settlement with any of the other
Borrowers, whether in their capacity as a Borrower or as a guarantor under this
Section 2.5.11, or any other guarantor; and

(xi) provide debtor-in-possession financing or allow use of cash collateral in
proceedings under the Bankruptcy Code, it being expressly agreed by all
Borrowers that any such financing and/or use would be part of the Obligations.

(c) The obligations and liabilities of each Borrower, as guarantor under this
Section 2.5.11, shall be primary, direct and immediate, shall not be subject to
any counterclaim, recoupment, set off, reduction or defense based upon any claim
that a Borrower may have against any one or more of the other Borrowers, the
Lender, and/or any other guarantor and shall not be conditional or contingent
upon pursuit or enforcement by the Lender of any remedies it may have against
the Borrowers with respect to this Agreement, the Notes or any of the other
Financing Documents, whether pursuant to the terms thereof or by operation of
law. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Lender shall not be
required to make any demand upon any of the Borrowers, or to sell the Collateral
or otherwise pursue, enforce or exhaust its remedies against the Borrowers or
the Collateral either before, concurrently with or after pursuing or enforcing
its rights and remedies hereunder. Any one or more successive or concurrent
actions or proceedings may be brought against each Borrower under this
Section 2.5.11, either in the same action, if any, brought against any one or
more of the Borrowers or in separate actions or proceedings, as often as the
Lender may deem expedient or advisable. Without limiting the foregoing, it is
specifically understood that any modification, limitation or discharge of any of
the liabilities or obligations of any one or more of the Borrowers, any other
guarantor or any obligor under any of the Financing Documents, arising out of,
or by virtue of, any bankruptcy, arrangement, reorganization or similar
proceeding for relief of debtors under federal or state law initiated by or
against any one or more of the Borrowers, in their respective capacities as
borrowers and guarantors under this Section 2.5.11, or under any of the
Financing Documents shall not modify, limit, lessen, reduce, impair, discharge,
or otherwise affect the liability of each Borrower under this Section 2.5.11 in
any manner whatsoever, and this Section 2.5.11 shall remain and continue in full
force and effect. It is the intent and purpose of this Section 2.5.11 that each
Borrower shall and does hereby waive all rights and benefits which might accrue
to any other guarantor by reason of any such proceeding, and the Borrowers agree
that they shall be liable for the full amount of the obligations and liabilities
under this Section 2.5.11, regardless of, and irrespective to, any modification,
limitation or discharge of the liability of any one or more of the Borrowers,
any other guarantor or any obligor under any of the Financing Documents, that
may result from any such proceedings.

(d) Each Borrower, as guarantor under this Section 2.5.11, hereby
unconditionally, jointly and severally, irrevocably and expressly waives:

(i) presentment and demand for payment of the Obligations and protest of
non-payment;

(ii) notice of acceptance of this Section 2.5.11 and of presentment, demand and
protest thereof;

(iii) notice of any default hereunder or under the Notes or any of the other
Financing Documents and notice of all indulgences;

(iv) notice of any increase in the amount of any portion of or all of the
indebtedness guaranteed by this Section 2.5.11;

(v) demand for observance, performance or enforcement of any of the terms or
provisions of this Section 2.5.11, the Notes or any of the other Financing
Documents;

(vi) all errors and omissions in connection with the Lender’s administration of
all indebtedness guaranteed by this Section 2.5.11, except errors and omissions
resulting from acts of bad faith;

(vii) any right or claim of right to cause a marshaling of the assets of any one
or more of the other Borrowers;

(viii) any act or omission of the Lender which changes the scope of the risk as
guarantor hereunder; and

(ix) all other notices and demands otherwise required by law which the Borrower
may lawfully waive.

Within ten (10) days following any request of the Lender so to do, each Borrower
will furnish the Lender and such other persons as the Lender may direct with a
written certificate, duly acknowledged stating in detail whether or not any
credits, offsets or defenses exist with respect to this Section 2.5.11.

ARTICLE III
THE COLLATERAL

Section 3.1 Debt and Obligations Secured.

All property and Liens assigned, pledged or otherwise granted under or in
connection with this Agreement (including, without limitation, those under
Section 3.2 (Grant of Liens)) or any of the Financing Documents shall secure

created and wherever situated and including, without limitation, (a) all of the

Investment Property, and General Intangibles and all of the Borrowers’ deposit

or nature whatsoever, and (e) all cash proceeds and noncash proceeds and

shall have in respect thereof all of the rights and remedies of a secured party
under the Uniform Commercial Code, the Personal Property Security Act, as well
as those provided in this Agreement, under each of the other Financing Documents
and under applicable Laws.

     
Section 3.3
Section 3.4
  [Intentionally Omitted].
Personal Property.
 
   

The Borrowers acknowledge and agree that it is the intention of the parties to
this Agreement that the Lender shall have a first priority, perfected Lien, in
form and substance satisfactory to the Lender and its counsel, on all of the
Borrowers’ personal property of any kind and nature whatsoever, whether now
owned or hereafter acquired, subject only to the Permitted Liens, if any. In
furtherance of the foregoing:

3.4.1 Investment Property, Chattel Paper, Promissory Notes, etc.

On the Closing Date and without implying any limitation on the scope of
Section 3.2 (Grant of Liens), each of the Borrowers shall deliver to the Lender
all originals of all of the Borrower’s letters of credit, Investment Property,
Chattel Paper, Documents and Instruments and, if the Lender so requires, shall
execute and deliver a separate pledge, assignment and security agreement in form
and content acceptable to the Lender, which pledge, assignment and security
agreement shall assign, pledge and grant a Lien to the Lender on all of each
Borrower’s letters of credit, Investment Property, Chattel Paper, Documents and
Instruments.

In the event that any of the Borrowers shall acquire after the Closing Date any
letters of credit, Investment Property, Chattel Paper, Documents or Instruments,
each such Borrower shall promptly so notify the Lender and deliver the originals
of all of the foregoing to the Lender promptly and in any event within ten
(10) days of each acquisition.

All letters of credit, Investment Property, Chattel Paper, Documents and
Instruments shall be delivered to the Lender endorsed and/or assigned as

as appropriate, and the property covered by such Financing Document showing that
the Lien of such Financing Document will be a perfected first priority Lien on
the property covered by such Financing Document subject only to Permitted Liens
or to such other matters as the Lender may approve.

Section 3.6 Costs.

The Borrowers agree to pay, as part of the Enforcement Costs and to the fullest
extent permitted by applicable Laws, on demand all costs, fees and expenses

(b) all filing and/or recording taxes or fees;

(c) all costs of Lien and record searches;

freely such property and assets. All of such properties, including, without

which any claim may be made against a Borrower, on account of wages and employee
and retiree health and welfare insurance and other benefits have been paid or
accrued as a liability on its books. The consummation of the transactions
contemplated by the Financing Agreement or any of the other Financing Documents,

Section 7.2 Remedies.

Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, the Lender may, in the exercise of
its sole and absolute discretion from time to time, at any time thereafter
exercise any one or more of the following rights, powers or remedies.

7.2.1 Acceleration.

The Lender may declare any or all of the Obligations to be immediately due and
payable, notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement or in any of the
other Financing Documents to the contrary, without presentment, demand, protest,
notice of protest or of dishonor, or other notice of any kind, all of which the
Borrowers hereby waive.

7.2.2 Further Advances.

The Lender may from time to time without notice to the Borrowers suspend,
terminate or limit any further Advances, loans or other extensions of credit
under the Commitments, under this Agreement and/or under any of the other
Financing Documents. Further, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default or
Default specified in Sections 7.1.5 (Receiver; Bankruptcy) or 7.1.6 (Involuntary

automatically terminate and the unpaid principal amount of the Notes (with
accrued interest thereon) and all other Obligations then outstanding, shall
immediately become due and payable without further action of any kind and
without presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind, all of which are
hereby expressly waived by the Borrowers.

7.2.3 Uniform Commercial Code; Personal Property Security Act

The Lender shall have all of the rights and remedies of a secured party under
the applicable Uniform Commercial Code, Personal Property Security Act, and
other applicable Laws. Upon demand by the Lender, the Borrowers shall assemble
the Collateral and make it available to the Lender, at a place designated by the
Lender. The Lender or its agents may without notice from time to time enter upon
any Borrower’s premises to take possession of the Collateral, to remove it, to
render it unusable, to process it or otherwise prepare it for sale, or to sell
or otherwise dispose of it. The remedies of the Lender shall include, without
limitation, the appointment by instrument in writing of a receiver (which term
as used in this Agreement includes a receiver and manager) or agent of all or
any part of the Collateral and removal or replacement from time to time of any
receiver or agent.

Any written notice of the sale, disposition or other intended action by the
Lender with respect to the Collateral that is sent by regular mail, postage
prepaid, to the Borrowers at the address set forth in Section 8.1 (Notices), or
such other address of the Borrowers that may from time to time be shown on the
Lender’s records, at least ten (10) days prior to such sale, disposition or
other action, shall, to the extent permitted by law, constitute commercially
reasonable notice to the Borrowers. The Lender may alternatively or additionally
give such notice in any other commercially reasonable manner. Nothing in this
Agreement shall require the Lender to give any notice not required by applicable
Laws.

If any consent, approval, or authorization of any state, municipal or other
Governmental Authority or of any other Person or of any Person having any
interest therein, should be necessary to effectuate any sale or other
disposition of the Collateral, the Borrowers agree to execute all such
applications and other instruments, and to take all other action, as may be
required in connection with securing any such consent, approval or
authorization.

The Borrowers recognize that the Lender may be unable to effect a public sale of
all or a part of the Collateral consisting of Investment Property by reason of
certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and
other applicable Federal and state Laws. The Lender may, therefore, in its sole
and absolute discretion, take such steps as it may deem appropriate to comply
with such Laws and may, for example, at any sale of the Collateral consisting of
securities restrict the prospective bidders or purchasers as to their number,
nature of business and investment intention, including, without limitation, a
requirement that the Persons making such purchases represent and agree to the
satisfaction of the Lender that they are purchasing such securities for their
account, for investment, and not with a view to the distribution or resale of
any thereof. The Borrowers covenant and agree to do or cause to be done promptly
all such acts and things as the Lender may request from time to time and as may
be necessary to offer and/or sell the securities or any part thereof in a manner
that is valid and binding and in conformance with all applicable Laws. Upon any
such sale or disposition, the Lender shall have the right to deliver, assign and
transfer to the purchaser thereof the Collateral consisting of securities so
sold.

7.2.4 Specific Rights With Regard to Collateral.

In addition to all other rights and remedies provided hereunder or as shall
exist at law or in equity from time to time, the Lender may (but shall be under
no obligation to), without notice to any of the Borrowers, and each Borrower
hereby irrevocably appoints the Lender as its attorney-in-fact, with power of
substitution, in the name of the Lender and/or in the name of any or all of the
Borrowers or otherwise, for the use and benefit of the Lender, but at the cost
and expense of the Borrowers and without notice to the Borrowers:

(a) request any Account Debtor obligated on any of the Accounts to make payments
thereon directly to the Lender, with the Lender taking control of the cash and
non-cash proceeds thereof;

it may deem advisable;

(c) make exchanges, substitutions or surrenders of all or any part of the
Collateral;

any Subsidiary all books, records, ledger sheets, correspondence, invoices and

place(s) of business as may be reasonably necessary to administer, control and
collect the Collateral;

the purchase order of any Account Debtor;

designate and receive and open all mail addressed to any of the Borrowers; and

(l) take any other action necessary or beneficial to realize upon or dispose of
the Collateral or to carry out the terms of this Agreement.

7.2.5 Application of Proceeds.

Any proceeds of sale or other disposition of the Collateral will be applied by
the Lender to the payment of any and all Enforcement Costs, and any balance of
such proceeds will be applied to the Obligations in such order and manner as the
Lender may from time to time in its sole and absolute discretion determine. If
the sale or other disposition of the Collateral fails to fully satisfy the
Obligations, the Borrowers shall remain liable to the Lender for any deficiency.

7.2.6 Performance by Lender.

If the Borrowers shall fail to pay the Obligations or otherwise fail to perform,
observe or comply with any of the conditions, covenants, terms, stipulations or
agreements contained in this Agreement or any of the other Financing Documents,
the Lender without notice to or demand upon the Borrowers and without waiving or
releasing any of the Obligations or any Default or Event of Default, may (but
shall be under no obligation to) at any time thereafter make such payment or
perform such act for the account and at the expense of the Borrowers, and may
enter upon the premises of the Borrowers for that purpose and take all such
action thereon as the Lender may consider necessary or appropriate for such
purpose and each of the Borrowers hereby irrevocably appoints the Lender as its
attorney-in-fact to do so, with power of substitution, in the name of the
Lender, in the name of any or all of the Borrowers or otherwise, for the use and
benefit of the Lender, but at the cost and expense of the Borrowers and without
notice to the Borrowers. All sums so paid or advanced by the Lender together
with interest thereon from the date of payment, advance or incurring until paid
in full at the Post-Default Rate and all costs and expenses, shall be deemed
part of the Enforcement Costs, shall be paid by the Borrowers to the Lender on
demand, and shall constitute and become a part of the Obligations.

7.2.7 Other Remedies.

The Lender may from time to time proceed to protect or enforce the rights of the
Lender by an action or actions at law or in equity or by any other appropriate
proceeding, whether for the specific performance of any of the covenants
contained in this Agreement or in any of the other Financing Documents, or for
an injunction against the violation of any of the terms of this Agreement or any
of the other Financing Documents, or in aid of the exercise or execution of any
right, remedy or power granted in this Agreement, the Financing Documents,
and/or applicable Laws. The Lender is authorized to offset and apply to all or
any part of the Obligations all moneys, credits and other property of any nature
whatsoever of any or all of the Borrowers now or at any time hereafter in the
possession of, in transit to or from, under the control or custody of, or on
deposit with, the Lender or any Affiliate of the Lender.

preclude the Lender from exercising any such right, power or remedy at any time
or times.

(e) By accepting payment after the due date of any amount payable under this

any such other amount.

Section 8.3 Cumulative Remedies.

The rights, powers and remedies provided in this Agreement and in the other

any right of the Borrowers or any other Person to the marshaling of assets,
which right the Borrowers and any other Person (including, without limitation,
any Guarantor) who may be liable (by endorsement, guaranty, indemnity or
otherwise) for all or any part of the Obligations hereby waive to the extent
permitted by applicable Laws. In order to entitle the Lender to exercise any

execution and delivery of the Notes, shall be binding upon the Borrowers
regardless of how long before or after the date hereof any of the Obligations
were or are incurred, and shall continue in full force and effect so long as any
of the Obligations are outstanding and unpaid. From time to time upon the
Lender’s request, and as a condition of the release of any one or more of the
Security Documents, the Borrowers and other Persons obligated with respect to
the Obligations shall provide the Lender with such acknowledgments and
agreements as the Lender may require to the effect that there exists no
defenses, rights of setoff or recoupment, claims, counterclaims, actions or
causes of action of any kind or nature whatsoever against the Lender and/or any
of its agents and others, or to the extent there are, the same are waived and
released.

Section 8.8 Enforcement Costs.

The Borrowers agree to pay to the Lender on demand all Enforcement Costs,
together with interest thereon from the date incurred or advanced until paid in
full at a per annum rate of interest equal at all times to the Post-Default
Rate. Enforcement Costs shall be immediately due and payable at the time
advanced or incurred, whichever is earlier. Without implying any limitation on
the foregoing, the Borrowers agree, as part of the Enforcement Costs, to pay
upon demand any and all stamp and other Taxes and fees payable or determined to
be payable in connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement and
the other Financing Documents and to save the Lender harmless from and against
any and all liabilities with respect to or resulting from any delay in paying or
omission to pay any Taxes or fees referred to in this Section. The provisions of
this Section shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the
repayment of the other Obligations and shall survive the termination of this
Agreement.

          Section 8.9  
Applicable Law; Jurisdiction.
       
 
  8.9.1    
Applicable Law.
       
 

The Borrowers acknowledge and agree that the Financing Documents, including,
this Agreement, shall be governed by the Laws of the State, as if each of the
Financing Documents and this Agreement had each been executed, delivered,
administered and performed solely within the State even though for the
convenience and at the request of the Borrowers, one or more of the Financing
Documents may be executed elsewhere. The Lender acknowledges, however, that
remedies under certain of the Financing Documents which relate to property
outside the State may be subject to the laws of the state in which the property
is located.

8.9.2 Submission to Jurisdiction.

The Borrowers irrevocably submit to the jurisdiction of any state or federal
court sitting in the State over any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or
relating to this Agreement or any of the other Financing Documents. Each of the
Borrowers irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any
objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any
such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court and any claim that any
such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an
inconvenient forum. Final judgment in any such suit, action or proceeding
brought in any such court shall be conclusive and binding upon the Borrowers and
may be enforced in any court in which the Borrowers are subject to jurisdiction,
by a suit upon such judgment, provided that service of process is effected upon
the Borrowers in one of the manners specified in this Section or as otherwise
permitted by applicable Laws.

8.9.3 Appointment of Agent for Service of Process.

The Borrowers hereby irrevocably designate and appoint The Corporation Trust
Incorporated, 300 E. Lombard Street, Baltimore, Maryland 21202, as the
Borrowers’ authorized agent to receive on the Borrowers’ behalf service of any
and all process that may be served in any suit, action or proceeding of the
nature referred to in this Section in any state or federal court sitting in the
State. If such agent shall cease so to act, the Borrowers shall irrevocably
designate and appoint without delay another such agent in the State satisfactory
to the Lender and shall promptly deliver to the Lender evidence in writing of
such other agent’s acceptance of such appointment and its agreement that such
appointment shall be irrevocable.

8.9.4 Service of Process.

Each of the Borrowers hereby consents to process being served in any suit,
action or proceeding of the nature referred to in this Section by (a) the
mailing of a copy thereof by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid,
return receipt requested, to the Borrower at the Borrower’s address designated
in or pursuant to Section 8.1 (Notices), and (b) serving a copy thereof upon the
agent, if any, designated and appointed by the Borrower as the Borrower’s agent
for service of process by or pursuant to this Section. The Borrowers irrevocably
agree that such service (y) shall be deemed in every respect effective service
of process upon the Borrowers in any such suit, action or proceeding, and
(z) shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be taken and held to be valid
personal service upon the Borrowers. Nothing in this Section shall affect the
right of the Lender to serve process in any manner otherwise permitted by law or
limit the right of the Lender otherwise to bring proceedings against the
Borrowers in the courts of any jurisdiction or jurisdictions.

Section 8.10 Limitation on Liability of Foreign Borrower.

It is the intent of the parties and the parties hereby agree that,
notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement or any other Financing Document,
Foreign Borrower shall not be liable for any U.S. Obligations, the present and
future assets of Foreign Borrower shall not be subject to any Charges, claim or
action by the Lender to satisfy any U.S. Obligations, and the Lender shall not
have any recourse under this Agreement or any other Financing Document against
Foreign Borrower or its assets in respect of any U.S. Obligations. All amounts
paid by Foreign Borrower and all value derived from its assets shall be applied
only to Obligations of the Foreign Borrower. As and when the Obligations owing
in respect of Advances due and owing from Foreign Borrower have been reduced to
zero, and the agreement the Lender to make any further Advances to the Foreign
Borrower shall have been irrevocably terminated, then the Foreign Borrower shall
cease to be a Borrower and shall be entitled to be released and discharged from
all obligations under this Agreement and the other Financing Documents, the
Lender shall have no further claim against the Foreign Borrower or its assets
and all provisions of this Agreement that relate to the Foreign Borrower, other
than provisions which generally apply to Subsidiaries or foreign Subsidiaries
shall cease to have further force and effect. Any references in this Agreement
or in any other Financing Document to specific statutes or to governmental
agencies of the United States of America, shall be, when applied to the Foreign
Borrower, deemed to refer to the applicable provisions or governmental agencies
of Canada, as the case may be, if any, provided, however, that Sections 6.1.10
and 6.2.12 shall be inapplicable to the Foreign Borrower. Any reference in a
financial covenant or otherwise to any U.S. Dollar figure shall be deemed, when
applied to the Foreign Borrower, to refer to the U.S. Dollar Equivalent of the
applicable foreign currency.

Section 8.11 Duplicate Originals and Counterparts.

This Agreement may be executed in any number of duplicate originals or
counterparts, each of such duplicate originals or counterparts shall be deemed
to be an original and all taken together shall constitute but one and the same
instrument.

Section 8.12 No Agency.

Nothing herein contained shall be construed to constitute the Borrowers as the
agent of the Lender for any purpose whatsoever or to permit the Borrowers to
pledge any of the credit of the Lender. The Lender shall not be responsible or
liable for any shortage, discrepancy, damage, loss or destruction of any part of
the Collateral wherever the same may be located and regardless of the cause
thereof. The Lender shall not, by anything herein or in any of the Financing
Documents or otherwise, assume any of the Borrowers’ obligations under any
contract or agreement assigned to the Lender, and the Lender shall not be
responsible in any way for the performance by the Borrowers of any of the terms
and conditions thereof.

Section 8.13 Date of Payment.

Should the principal of or interest on the Notes become due and payable on other
than a Business Day, the maturity thereof shall be extended to the next
succeeding Business Day and in the case of principal, interest shall be payable
thereon at the rate per annum specified in the Notes during such extension.

Section 8.14 Entire Agreement.

This Agreement is intended by the Lender and the Borrowers to be a complete,
exclusive and final expression of the agreements contained herein. Neither the
Lender nor the Borrowers shall hereafter have any rights under any prior
agreements pertaining to the matters addressed by this Agreement but shall look
solely to this Agreement for definition and determination of all of their
respective rights, liabilities and responsibilities under this Agreement.

Section 8.15 Waiver of Trial by Jury.

THE BORROWERS AND THE LENDER HEREBY JOINTLY AND SEVERALLY WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY IN
ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING TO WHICH THE BORROWERS AND THE LENDER MAY BE PARTIES,
ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY PERTAINING TO (A) THIS AGREEMENT, (B) ANY OF THE
FINANCING DOCUMENTS, OR (C) THE COLLATERAL. THIS WAIVER CONSTITUTES A WAIVER OF
TRIAL BY JURY OF ALL CLAIMS AGAINST ALL PARTIES TO SUCH ACTIONS OR PROCEEDINGS,
INCLUDING CLAIMS AGAINST PARTIES WHO ARE NOT PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT. EACH
BORROWER AGREES THAT IT WILL NOT ASSERT ANY CLAIM AGAINST THE LENDER OR ANY
OTHER PERSON INDEMNIFIED UNDER THIS AGREEMENT ON ANY THEORY OF LIABILITY FOR
SPECIAL, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, INCIDENTAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES.

This waiver is knowingly, willingly and voluntarily made by the Borrowers and
the Lender, and the Borrowers and the Lender hereby represent that no
representations of fact or opinion have been made by any individual to induce
this waiver of trial by jury or to in any way modify or nullify its effect. The
Borrowers and the Lender further represent that they have been represented in
the signing of this Agreement and in the making of this waiver by independent
legal counsel, selected of their own free will, and that they have had the
opportunity to discuss this waiver with counsel.

Section 8.16 Liability of the Lender.

The Borrowers hereby agree that the Lender shall not be chargeable for any
negligence, mistake, act or omission of any accountant, examiner, agency or
attorney employed by the Lender in making examinations, investigations or
collections, or otherwise in perfecting, maintaining, protecting or realizing
upon any lien or security interest or any other interest in the Collateral or
other security for the Obligations.

By inspecting the Collateral or any other properties of the Borrowers or by
accepting or approving anything required to be observed, performed or fulfilled
by the Borrowers or to be given to the Lender pursuant to this Agreement or any
of the other Financing Documents, the Lender shall not be deemed to have
warranted or represented the condition, sufficiency, legality, effectiveness or
legal effect of the same, and such acceptance or approval shall not constitute
any warranty or representation with respect thereto by the Lender.

Section 8.17 Indemnification.

The Borrowers agrees to indemnify and hold harmless, Lender, the respective
parent and Affiliates of the Lender and the respective parent’s and Affiliates’
officers, directors, shareholders, employees and agents (each an “Indemnified
Party,” and collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”), from and against any and
all claims, liabilities, losses, damages, costs and expenses (whether or not
such Indemnified Party is a party to any litigation), including without
limitation, reasonable attorney’s fees and costs and costs of investigation,
document production, attendance at depositions or other discovery, incurred by
any Indemnified Party with respect to, arising out of or as a consequence of
(a) this Agreement or any of the other Financing Documents, including without
limitation, any failure of the Borrowers to pay when due (at maturity, by
acceleration or otherwise) any principal, interest, fee or any other amount due
under this Agreement or the other Loan documents, or any other Event of Default;
(b) the use by the Borrowers of any proceeds advanced hereunder; (c) the
transactions contemplated hereunder; (d) any civil penalty or fine assessed by
OFAC against the Lender or any Affiliate of the Lender and all reasonable costs
and expense (including counsel fees and disbursements) incurred in connection
with defense thereof by the Lender or such Affiliate, as a result of the funding
of Loans or the extension of credit, the acceptance of payments due under the
Financing Documents or any Hedge Agreement or acceptance of Collateral; or
(e) any claim, demand, action or cause of action being asserted against (i) the
Borrowers or any of their Affiliates by any other Person, or (ii) any
Indemnified Party by the Borrowers in connection with the transactions
contemplated hereunder. Notwithstanding anything herein or elsewhere to the
contrary, the Borrowers shall not be obligated to indemnify or hold harmless any
Indemnified Party from any liability, loss or damage resulting from the gross
negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a final non-appealable order
by a court of competent jurisdiction) of such Indemnified Party. Any amount
payable to the Lender under this Section will bear interest at the Post- Default
Rate from the due date until paid. Each of the Borrowers acknowledges and agrees
that this indemnification shall survive the termination of this Agreement and
the Commitments and the payment and performance of all of the other Obligations.

COMPLIANCE CERTIFICATE

THIS CERTIFICATE is made as of       , 2012, by RAND WORLDWIDE, INC., a
corporation organized under the laws of the State of Delaware (the “Borrower
Agent”), and RAND A TECHNOLOGY CORPORATION, a corporation organized under the
laws of the Province of Ontario (the “Borrowers”), jointly and severally, to PNC
BANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, a national banking association (the “Lender”),
pursuant to Section 6.1.1 of the Financing and Security Agreement dated February
       2012, (as amended, modified, restated, substituted, extended and renewed
at any time and from time to time, the “Financing Agreement”) by and between the
Borrowers and the Lender.

I,       , hereby certify that I am the        of the Borrowers and am a
Responsible Officer (as that term is defined in the Financing Agreement)
authorized to certify to the Lender on behalf the Borrowers as follows:

This Certificate is given to induce the Lender to make advances to the Borrowers
under the Financing Agreement.

This Certificate accompanies the        financial statements for the period
ended      , 201             (the “Current Financials”) that the Borrowers is
furnishing to the Lender pursuant to Section 6.1.1 of the Financing Agreement.
The Current Financials have been prepared in accordance with GAAP (as that term

On the date hereof, the representations and warranties contained in Article 4 of
the Financing Agreement are true with the same effect as though such
