The Lender agrees, on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, to make an Advance to the Company on any single Business Day during the period from the Effective Date until October 25, 2015 (the “Advance Termination Date”) in an aggregate amount not to exceed the Commitment.  Amounts borrowed and repaid or prepaid may not be reborrowed.  The Advance shall be denominated in Dollars.
Section 2.02      Making the Advance.
(a)    The Borrowing and each continuation of the Advance shall be made upon the Company’s irrevocable notice to the Lender, which may be given by telephone.  Each such notice must be received by the Lender not later than 11:00 a.m. three Business Days prior to the requested date of the Borrowing of or continuation of the Advance.  Each 

12
















telephonic notice by the Company pursuant to this Section 2.02 must be confirmed promptly by delivery to the Lender of a written Advance/Continuation Notice, appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Company.  Each Advance/Continuation Notice (whether telephonic or written) shall specify (i) whether the Company is requesting the Advance or a continuation of all or a portion the Advance, (ii) the requested date of the Borrowing or continuation, as the case may be (which shall be a Business Day), (iii) the principal amount of the Advance to be borrowed or continued and (iv) the duration of the Interest Period with respect thereto.  Unless the Company provides a notice requesting a continuation, the Advance shall be continued with an Interest Period of one month.  If the Company requests a Borrowing or continuation of the Advance in any such Advance/Continuation Notice, but fails to specify an Interest Period, it will be deemed to have specified an Interest Period of one month.
(b)    Following receipt of an Advance/Continuation Notice, upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in Section 4.01, the Lender shall make all Advance funds either by wire transfer of such funds or by crediting the account of the Company on the books of the Lender in immediately available funds, in each case in accordance with instructions provided to (and reasonably acceptable to) the Lender by the Company.
(c)    There shall not be more than six Interest Periods in effect at any time.
Section 2.03      Additional Fees.  There are no upfront or other commitment fees due under this Agreement.
Section 2.04      Termination and Reduction of the Commitment.  Immediately after the initial Borrowing, the unused portion, if any, of the Commitment shall terminate.  On the Advance Termination Date, the unused portion, if any, of the Commitment shall terminate.
Section 2.05      Repayment of the Advance.  The Company shall repay to the Lender the aggregate principal amount of the Advance outstanding on the Termination Date.  The Company may voluntarily prepay the Advance, in whole or in part, in accordance with Section 2.08.
Section 2.06      Interest on the Advance.
(a)    Standard Interest.  The Company shall pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of the Advance made to it by the Lender from the date of the Advance until such principal amount shall be paid in full, at a rate per annum equal at all times during each Interest Period for such portion of the Advance to the sum of (x) the Eurocurrency Rate for such Interest Period plus (y) 0.75%, or, upon the exercise of the Extension Option, 0.85% (the “Applicable Margin”), such interest to be payable on the last day of each Interest Period and if such Interest Period has a duration of more than three months, on each three month anniversary of the first day of such Interest Period (unless such day is 

13
















not a Business Day, in which case such payment shall be due on the following Business Day).
(b)    Default Interest.  (i)  If any amount of principal of the Advance is not paid when due, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, such amount shall thereafter bear interest at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Requirement of Law;  (ii) If any amount (other than principal of the Advance) payable by the Company under any Loan Document is not paid when due (without regard to any applicable grace periods), whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, then upon the request of the Lender, such amount shall thereafter bear interest at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Requirement of Law; (iii) Upon the request of the Lender, while any Event of Default exists, the Company shall pay interest on the principal amount of all outstanding Obligations hereunder at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Requirement of Law; (iv) Accrued and unpaid interest on past due amounts (including interest on past due interest) shall be due and payable upon written demand.
Section 2.07      Interest Rate Determination. 
(a)    The Lender shall give prompt notice to the Company of the applicable interest rate determined by the Lender for purposes of Section 2.06.
(b)    If the Lender determines that for any reason in connection with any Advance/Continuation Notice that (i) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the Eurocurrency Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to any portion of the Advance or continuation or (ii) the Eurocurrency Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to the Advance or continuation does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Lender of funding such portion of the Advance or continuation, the Lender will promptly so notify the Company.  Thereafter the interest rate for each portion of the Advance shall be equal to (x) the cost of funds determined by the Lender after consultation with, and explanation to, the Company plus (y) the Applicable Margin. 
(c)    All computations of interest for the Advance shall be made on the basis of a year of 360 days and actual days elapsed.  Interest shall accrue on each portion of the Advance for the day on which the Advance is made and/or the Interest Period was selected, and shall not accrue on any portion of the Advance for the day on which the Advance or such portion is paid.  Each determination by the Lender of an interest rate or fee hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.
Section 2.08      Prepayments of the Advance.  The Company may, upon notice to the Lender, at any time or from time to time voluntarily prepay the Advance made to it in whole or in part without premium or penalty; provided that (a) such notice must be received by the Lender not later than 11:00 a.m. three Business Days prior to any date of prepayment, (b) any

14
















prepayment shall be in a principal amount of $5,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof (or such lower amount as may be agreed to by the Lender) or (c) if less, the entire principal amount thereof then outstanding.  Each such notice shall specify the date and amount of such prepayment and the Interest Period(s) of such portion of the Advance.  The Company shall make such prepayment and the payment amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein; provided that such notice of prepayment may state that such prepayment is conditioned upon the availability of other financing, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Company (by notice to the Lender prior to the specified date of such prepayment) if such condition is not satisfied (it being understood that any revocation by the Company of a notice of prepayment shall entitle the Lender to any amounts as set forth in Section 8.04(b)).  Any prepayment of all or a portion of the Advance shall be accompanied by all accrued interest thereon, together with any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 8.04(b).  Each such prepayment of all or a portion of the Advance shall be applied to the principal repayment installments thereof as the Company shall direct.
Section 2.09      Increased Costs.
(a)    If, at any time after the date of this Agreement, any change in any law or regulation or in the interpretation thereof by any court or administrative or governmental authority charged with the administration thereof shall.
(i)    impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by the Lender (except any reserve requirement included in the Eurocurrency Rate Reserve Percentage);
(ii)    subject the Lender to any tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement, or the Advance made by it, or change the basis of taxation of payments to such Lender in respect thereof (except for (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes and (C) Connection Income Taxes); or
(iii)    impose on the Lender or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or the Advance made by the Lender;
and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to the Lender of making or maintaining any Advance the interest on which is determined by reference to the Eurocurrency Rate (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Advance), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by the Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, the Company shall from time to time, upon written demand by the Lender pay to the Lender additional amounts sufficient to compensate the Lender for such increased cost.  A certificate as to the amount of such increased cost setting forth the basis for the calculation of such increased costs, submitted to the Company by the Lender, shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

15
















(b)    If, at any time after the date of this Agreement, the Lender determines that compliance with any law or regulation or any guideline or request from any central bank or other governmental authority (whether or not having the force of law) affects or would affect the amount of capital or liquidity required or expected to be maintained by the Lender or any corporation controlling the Lender and that the amount of such capital or liquidity is increased by or based upon the existence of the Lender’s commitment to lend hereunder and other commitments of this type (or similar contingent obligations), then, upon written demand by the Lender, the Company shall immediately pay to the Lender, from time to time as specified by the Lender, additional amounts sufficient to compensate the Lender or such corporation in the light of such circumstances, to the extent that the Lender reasonably determines such increase in capital or liquidity to be allocable to the existence of the Lender’s commitment hereunder.  A certificate as to such amounts submitted to the Company by the Lender and setting forth the basis for the calculation of such amount shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.
(c)    Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (x) the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines or directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith and (y) all requests, rules, guidelines or directives promulgated by the Bank for International settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III, shall in each case be deemed to be a “Change in Law”, regardless of the date enacted, adopted or issued.
(d)    Without affecting its rights under any other provision of this Agreement, the Lender agrees that if there is any increase in any cost to or reduction in any amount receivable by the Lender with respect to which the Company would be obligated to compensate the Lender pursuant to Section 2.09(a) or Section 2.09(b), the Lender shall use reasonable efforts to select an alternative issuing office or Lending Office which would not result in any such increase in any cost to or reduction in any amount receivable by the Lender; provided, however, that the Lender shall not be obligated to select an alternative issuing office or Lending Office if the Lender determines that (i) as a result of such selection the Lender would be in violation of any applicable law, regulation, treaty, or guideline, or would incur additional costs or expenses or (ii) such selection would be inadvisable for regulatory reasons or inconsistent with the interests of the Lender.
(e)    Failure or delay on the part of the Lender to demand compensation pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section shall not constitute a waiver of the Lender’s right to demand such compensation, provided that the Company shall not be required to compensate the Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than four months prior to the date that the Lender notifies the Company of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of the Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or 

16
















reductions is retroactive, then the four-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).
(f)    Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of the Company hereunder, the agreements and obligations of the Company contained in this Section 2.09 shall survive the payment in full (after the Termination Date) of all Obligations.
Section 2.10      Illegality.
(a)    Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if the Lender shall notify the Company that the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation makes it unlawful or impossible, or any central bank or other governmental authority asserts that it is unlawful, for the Lender or its Lending Office to perform its obligations hereunder to make Eurocurrency Rate Advances or to fund or maintain Eurocurrency Rate Advances hereunder, (i) the obligation of the Lender to make the Advance shall be suspended until the Lender shall notify the Company and the Lender that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist and (ii) the Company shall forthwith prepay in full the Advance of the Lender then outstanding, together with interest accrued thereon.
(b)    Without affecting its rights under any other provision of this Agreement, the Lender agrees that if it becomes unlawful or impossible for the Lender to make, maintain or fund all or a portion of the Advance as contemplated by this Agreement, the Lender shall use reasonable efforts to select an alternative Lending Office from which the Lender may maintain and give effect to its obligations under this Agreement with respect to making, funding and maintaining all or a portion of the Advance; provided, however, that the Lender shall not be obligated to select an alternative Lending Office if the Lender determines that (i) as a result of such selection the Lender would be in violation of any applicable law, regulation, or treaty, or would incur additional costs or expenses or (ii) such selection would be inadvisable for regulatory reasons or inconsistent with the interests of the Lender.
Section 2.11      Extension of the Termination Date.  Subject to the provisions of this Section 2.11, the Company shall have the option to extend the Termination Date for one additional year, subject to the satisfaction of each of the following conditions:
(a)    The Company shall notify the Lender of its exercise of the option at least 45 days, but not more than 120 days, prior to the then scheduled Termination Date;

17
















respects when made and shall also be true and correct in all material respects on the then scheduled Termination Date;

(e)    At the time of the exercise of the extension hereunder, the Company shall have delivered (1) a certificate from a Responsible Officer demonstrating that the Company is in compliance with the covenants set forth in Section 7.03 of the Revolving Credit Agreement as of the end of the most recent Fiscal Quarter and (B) a certificate of a Responsible Officer certifying that such Responsible Officer has no knowledge of any change since the end of such Fiscal Quarter which would cause the Company to not be in compliance with the covenants set forth in Section 7.03 of the Revolving Credit Agreement; and
(f)    The Company shall have paid all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by the Lender and all reasonable fees and expenses paid to third party consultants (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) by the Lender in connection with such extension.
ARTICLE III
PAYMENTS, TAXES, EVIDENCE OF DEBT, ETC.
Section 3.01      Payments Generally.  All payments to be made by the Company shall be made without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff.  Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by the Company hereunder shall be made to the Lender, at the Lender’s Office in the United States in Dollars and in Same Day Funds not later than 2:00 p.m. on the date specified herein.  All payments received by the Lender after 2:00 p.m., shall in each case be deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue.  If any payment to be made by the Company shall come due on a day other than a Business Day, payment shall be made on the next following Business Day, and such extension of time shall be included in computing interest or fees, as the case may be.
Section 3.02      Taxes.  
(a)    Payments Free of Taxes.
(i)    Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Company under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable Laws.  If any applicable Laws (as determined in the good faith discretion of the Lender) require the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by the Lender or

18
















the Company, then the Lender or the Company shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding.
(ii)    If the Company or the Lender shall be required (as determined in the good faith discretion of the Company or the Lender) by any applicable Laws to withhold or deduct any Taxes from any payment, then (A) the Company or the Lender, as required by such Laws, shall withhold or make such deductions as are determined by it to be required, (B) the Company or the Lender, to the extent required by such Laws, shall timely pay the full amount withheld or deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with such Laws, and (C) to the extent that the withholding or deduction is made on account of Indemnified Taxes, the sum payable by the Company shall be increased as necessary so that after any required withholding or the making of all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 3.02) the Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such withholding or deduction been made.
(b)    Payment of Other Taxes by the Company.  Without limiting the provisions of subsection (a) above, the Company shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law, or at the option of the Lender timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.
(c)    Tax Indemnification.  The Company shall, and does hereby agree to, severally indemnify the Lender, and shall make payment in respect thereof within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable by the Company under this Section 3.02) payable or paid by the Lender or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to the Lender, and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.  A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Company by the Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 
(d)    Evidence of Payments.  As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by the Company to a Governmental Authority as provided in this Section 3.02, the Company shall deliver to the Lender the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of any return required by Laws to report such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Lender.
(e)    Choice of Lending Office.  Without affecting its rights under this Section 3.02 or any provision of this Agreement, the Lender agrees that if any Indemnified Taxes are imposed and required by law to be paid or to be withheld from any amount payable to the Lender or its Lending Office with respect to which the Company would be obligated pursuant to this Section 3.02 to increase any amounts payable to the Lender or to pay any

19
















such Indemnified Taxes, the Lender shall use reasonable efforts to select an alternative Lending Office which would not result in the imposition of such Indemnified Taxes; provided, however, that the Lender shall not be obligated to select an alternative Lending Office if the Lender determines that as a result of such selection the Lender would be in violation of an applicable law, regulation, or treaty, or would incur unreasonable additional costs or expenses.
(f)    Treatment of Certain Tax Benefits.  If the Lender determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of, credit against, release or remission for, or repayment of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Company or with respect to which the Company has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 3.02 (any such refund, credit, release, remission or repayment, a “Tax Benefit”), it shall pay to the Company an amount equal to such Tax Benefit (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Company under this Section 3.02 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such Tax Benefit), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) incurred by the Lender, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such Tax Benefit), provided that the Company, upon the request of the Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Company (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) by the Lender in the event the Lender is required to repay such Tax Benefit to such Governmental Authority.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this subsection, in no event will the Lender be required to pay any amount to the Company pursuant to this subsection the payment of which would place the Lender in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the Lender would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such Tax Benefit had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid.  This subsection shall not be construed to require the Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to the Company or any other Person.
(g)    The Lender agrees with the Company that it will take all reasonable actions by all usual means to (i) secure and maintain the benefit of all benefits available to it under the provisions of any applicable double tax treaty concluded by the United States of America to which it may be entitled by reason of the location of the Lender’s lending office or place of incorporation or its status as an enterprise of any jurisdiction having any such applicable double tax treaty, if such benefit would reduce the amount payable by the Company in accordance with this Section 3.02 and (ii) otherwise cooperate with the Company to minimize the amount payable by the Company pursuant to this Section 3.02; provided, however, that the Lender shall not be obliged to disclose to the Company any information regarding its tax affairs or tax computations or to reorder its tax affairs or tax planning pursuant thereto.

20
















(h)    Survival.  Each party’s obligations under this Section 3.02 any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, the Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other Obligations.
Section 3.03      Evidence of Debt/Borrowings. 
(a)    The Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Company to the Lender resulting from the Advance owing to the Lender from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to the Lender from time to time hereunder. 
(b)    The Register maintained by the Lender pursuant to Section 8.07(b) shall include (i) the date and amount of each Borrowing made hereunder and the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable, and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Lender from the Company hereunder.  
(c)    The entries made in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. 
(d)    Upon the request of the Lender to the Company, the Company shall execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, to the Lender a Note, which shall evidence the Lender’s Advance to the Company in addition to such accounts or records.  The Lender may attach schedules to a Note and endorse thereon the date, amount and maturity of the Advance and payments with respect thereto.

The Company is duly organized or formed, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation or organization and possesses all powers (corporate or otherwise) and all other authorizations and licenses necessary to carry on its business, except where the failure to so possess would not have a Material Adverse Effect.

(d)    Binding Effect.  Each Loan Document is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company thereto enforceable against the Company in accordance with

23
















its terms, except as limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or other laws of general application relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and general principles of equity (regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).
(e)    Litigation.  There is no pending or, to the Company’s knowledge, threatened action or proceeding affecting the Company or any of its Subsidiaries before any court, governmental agency or arbitrator, (i) which has a reasonable probability (taking into account the exhaustion of all appeals and the assertion of all defenses) of having a Material Adverse Effect or (ii) which purports to affect the legality, validity or enforceability of any Loan Document.
(f)    Financial Statements.  The Consolidated balance sheets of the Company and its Subsidiaries as of January 31, 2015, and the related Consolidated statements of income and retained earnings of the Company and its Subsidiaries for the Fiscal Year then ended, certified by Deloitte & Touche LLP, copies of which have been furnished to the Lender, fairly present in all material respects the Consolidated financial condition of the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole as at such date and the results of the operations of the Company and its Subsidiaries for the period ended on such date, all in accordance with GAAP consistently applied.
(g)    Material Adverse Change.  Since January 31, 2015, there has been no Material Adverse Change.
(h)    Compliance With Law.  The Company and each of its Subsidiaries is in compliance with all Requirements of Law (including, without limitation, all applicable Environmental Laws) applicable to their respective properties, assets and business other than (i) where the failure to so comply would (as to all such failures to comply in the aggregate) not have a Material Adverse Effect or (ii) as described on Schedule IV.

(i)    Neither the Company nor any ERISA Affiliate is a party or subject to, or has any obligation to make payments, or incur any material Withdrawal Liability, to, any Multiemployer Plan.

24
















(iii)    No ERISA Event has occurred with respect to any Plan that, when taken together with all other such ERISA Events for which liability is reasonably expected to occur, would reasonably be likely to result in a Material Adverse Effect.
(iv)    Neither the Company nor any ERISA Affiliate has been notified by the sponsor of a Multiemployer Plan that such Multiemployer Plan is in reorganization, insolvent or has been terminated, within the meaning of Title IV of ERISA or has been determined to be in “endangered” or “critical” status within the meaning of Section 432 of the Code or Section 305 or ERISA and no Multiemployer Plan is reasonably expected to be in reorganization or to be terminated, within the meaning of Title IV of ERISA.
(j)    Federal Reserve Regulations.  The Company is not engaged in the business of extending credit for the purpose of purchasing or carrying Margin Stock, and no proceeds of the Advance will be used to purchase any Margin Stock or to extend credit to others for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any Margin Stock.
