| | (a)
                            Maximum Line of Credit.In consideration of Gehl Companys performance                     of its
Obligations and subject to Sections 3 and 4 hereof and the other terms
                    and provisions of this Agreement, GECDF grants to Gehl Company, until
the                     Maturity Date, a line of credit of $75,000,000 which shall
include the                     outstanding loans and advances under the Canadian Line,
provided, however from                     and including the period March 1 through and
including July 15 of each calendar                     year during the term of this
Agreement, the amount referenced in this sentence                     shall be
$90,000,000, and provided further, however, for the 2004 calendar year,
                    the foregoing period shall be March 1, 2004 through and including
December 31,                     2004 (the U.S. Line). The U.S. Line shall be
subject to the                     limitations contained in this Agreement. GECDF shall
make available to Gehl                     Company a sub-limit from the U.S. Line of a
fluctuating amount of Canadian                     Dollars which, from day-to-day, shall
equal, based on the daily noon spot                     exchange rate of the Royal Bank
of Canada, or any successor thereto (the                     Exchange Rate)
$5,500,000 (the Canadian Line) for the                     period commencing
on the execution of this Agreement until the Maturity Date                     which
shall be subject to the limitations in Section 3.2 with respect Eligible
                    Accounts payable in Canadian Dollars and Net Accounts payable in
Canadian                     Dollars. The U.S. Line of Credit, with the sub-limit of the
Canadian Line, are                     collectively called the Maximum Line of
Credit; loans under the U.S.                     Line are called U.S. Loans;" and
loans under the Canadian Line are                     called Canadian Loans. U.S.
Loans shall be repayable only in United                     States Dollars; and Canadian
Loans shall be repayable only in Canadian Dollars.                     Gehl Company
agrees that for purposes of determining loan availability and
                    over-advance positions, all outstanding Canadian Loans shall be
valued daily at                     the then-current Exchange Rate (by way of example
only: if on January 1, Gehl                     Company borrowed $CN7,500,000 which at
the time was equivalent to $5,500,000,                     and on January 3, the Exchange
Rate changed such that $CN7,500,000 was then                     valued at $6,000,000,
Gehl Company will be deemed over-advanced by $500,000).                     Any
over-advance will be immediately repayable by Gehl Company upon demand by
                    GECDF. In determining credit available at any given time for U.S.
Loans pursuant                     to the provisions of Section 3.2 or 4.2 or Canadian
Loans pursuant to the                     provisions of Section 3.2, Canadian Loans may
be made only with respect to                     Eligible Accounts arising from sales
payable in Canadian Dollars; and U.S. Loans                     may be made only with
respect to Eligible Accounts, including, but not limited                     to, Eligible
Retail Chattel Paper arising from sales payable in United States
                    Dollars and Eligible Inventory. Gehl Company agrees that all reports,
agings,                     records and other information provided by it pursuant to this
Agreement,                     including, without limitation, those provided pursuant to
Section 3.1, shall be                     in form and detail reasonably satisfactory to
GECDF and separately identify Gehl                     Companys Accounts payable in
Canadian Dollars from those Accounts payable                     in United States
Dollars. All references in this Agreement to                     Dollars or
$ means United States Dollars; all references                     in this
Agreement to $CN or Canadian Dollars means
                    Dollars of Canada.

$25,000,000 of the U.S. Line, which such Supplemental Line of Credit is
