| | 11.1
       DFS has previously arranged, and in the future may, in its sole and absolute discretion,
arrange for the issuance of Letters of Credit by Letter of Credit Issuer for the account
of Gehl Company from time to time so long as the U.S. Line has not been terminated, but
only in connection with transactions satisfactory to DFS and only if as a result of such
issuance the sum of the Letter of Credit Exposure and the balance of the U.S. Loan will
not exceed the amount available under the U.S. Line. DFS shall be under no obligation to
do so and makes no commitment to do so. The expiration date of any Letter of Credit will
be a date which is prior to the Maturity Date and satisfactory to DFS in its sole and
absolute discretion.
| | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| | 11.2
       Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or in the Other Agreements, DFS
will at all times deduct from the amount otherwise available to be borrowed under the U.S.
Line the amount of the Letter of Credit Exposure. Gehl Company agrees that for purposes of
determining loan availability and over-advance positions, the Letter of Credit Exposure
shall for all purposes be treated as having been advanced under the U.S. Line.
| | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| | 11.3
       The  unreimbursed  amount of each draw on a
Letter of Credit  shall bear  interest at a rate          per annum equal to the rate
applicable to the U.S. Loan.
| | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| | 11.4
       Gehl Company shall pay to DFS all fees charged by DFS and Letter of Credit Issuer with
respect to each Letter of Credit. DFS will confirm the amount of such fees in writing (or
by electronic mail) prior to the issuance of such Letter of Credit. Gehl Company shall pay
to DFS all of DFS and Letter of Credit Issuers other customary fees for
issuance, amendment, or renewal of a Letter of Credit and for each negotiation of a draft
drawn under such Letter of Credit.
| | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| | 11.5
       Gehl Company hereby unconditionally agrees to immediately pay to DFS, without demand, at
DFS address all amounts required to pay all drafts drawn under Letters of Credit
issued for the account of Gehl Company and all reasonable expenses incurred by DFS and
Letter of Credit Issuer in connection with such Letters of Credit and in any event to
remit to DFS sufficient funds to pay all debts and liabilities arising under any Letter of
Credit issued for the account of Gehl Company. Gehl Company hereby authorizes DFS to make
an advance under the U.S. Line, the Canadian Line, the Supplemental Line of Credit, or any
other credit facility between Gehl Company and DFS (at DFS option) to immediately
pay such amount, even if such advance would cause an over-advance position under such line
or facility.

request to DFS and executing the letter of credit application, reimbursement agreement,
and/or other documentation required by DFS (and satisfactory to DFS) no less than five
Business Days prior to the requested issue date for such Letter of Credit (unless other
arrangements satisfactory to DFS are made). Each request for a Letter of Credit shall
constitute a certification by Gehl Company that (i) there is no Default which has occurred
and is continuing, and (ii) the representations and warranties herein and in the Other
Agreements are true as if made on the date of such request.
| | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| | 11.7
       The issuance of any Letter of Credit shall be at DFS sole and absolute discretion.
DFS shall be under no obligation to issue any Letter of Credit. Without limiting DFS
discretion to refuse to issue any Letter of Credit, DFS will not arrange for Letter of
Credit Issuer to issue any Letter of Credit if any order, judgment or decree of any
governmental authority shall exist which purports by its terms to enjoin or restrain
Letter of Credit Issuer from issuing such Letter of Credit, or if any law or request or
directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any governmental authority with
jurisdiction over DFS or Letter of Credit Issuer shall exist which prohibits, or requests
that DFS or Letter of Credit Issuer refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit
generally or such Letter of Credit in particular, or imposes upon DFS or Letter of Credit
Issuer with respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction or reserve or capital
requirement.

| | 11.8
       Gehl Company assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary of any of the
Letters of Credit. Neither DFS, Letter of Credit Issuer, nor any of their directors,
officers, employees, agents, or representatives shall be liable or responsible for: (a)
the use which may be made of any of the Letters of Credit or for any acts or omissions of
beneficiary in connection therewith; (b) the validity, sufficiency or genuineness of
documents, or of any endorsement(s) thereon, even if such documents should in fact prove
to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, fraudulent or forged; (c) payment by
DFS or Letter of Credit Issuer against presentation of documents which, on their face,
appear to comply with the terms of any Letter of Credit, even though such documents may
fail to bear any reference or adequate reference to any such Letter of Credit; or (d) any
other circumstances whatsoever in making or failing to make payment under any Letter of
Credit in connection with which DFS or Letter of Credit Issuer would, pursuant to the
Uniform Customs and Practices for Documentary Credits (1993 Revision), International
Chamber of Commerce Publication No. 500 (as amended from time to time) or the
International Standby Practices (ISP98), be absolved from liability. In furtherance and
not in limitation of the foregoing, DFS and Letter of Credit Issuer may accept documents
that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further
investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary. The provisions of
this Section 11.8 shall survive termination of the U.S. Line, the Canadian Line, the
Supplemental Line of Credit, the expiration of the Letters of Credit and the indefeasible
full payment and satisfaction of all of the Obligations.

| | 11.9

Agreements, all representations and warranties of Gehl Company in this Agreement and the
Other Agreements shall survive, Gehl Company shall comply with all covenants applicable to
Gehl Company under this Agreement and the Other Agreements, the security interests granted
by Gehl Company to DFS will not be released, the powers of attorney granted by Gehl
Company to DFS under this Agreement and the Other Agreements may not be terminated or

until all Letters of Credit have expired and the Obligations have been indefeasibly paid
in full in cash, and DFS has no further obligation to extend credit to or for the account
of Gehl Company.
