(d) In the computation of periods of time from a specified date to a later specified date, the word from means from and including; the words to and until each mean
to but excluding, and the word through means to and including.



(e) Unless otherwise expressly provided herein, (i) references to agreements (including this Agreement and the other Loan Documents) and other contractual
instruments shall be deemed to include all subsequent amendments, restatements, supplements and other modifications thereto, but only to the extent such amendments, restatements, supplements and other modifications are not prohibited by the terms of
any Loan Document, and (ii) references to any statute or regulation shall be construed as including all statutory and regulatory provisions amending, replacing, supplementing or interpreting such statute or regulation.



(f) This Agreement and the other Loan Documents may use several different
limitations, tests or measurements to regulate the same or similar matters. All such limitations, tests and measurements are cumulative and each shall be performed in accordance with its terms.



(g) This Agreement and the other Loan Documents are the result of
negotiations among and have been reviewed by counsel to the Agent, the Company, the Lenders and the other parties thereto and are the products of all parties. Accordingly, they shall not be construed against the Agent or the Lenders merely because
of the Agents or Lenders involvement in their preparation.



(h) Unless otherwise defined or specified herein, all accounting terms used herein shall be interpreted, all accounting determinations hereunder shall be made, and all financial



---

statements required to be delivered hereunder shall be prepared, in accordance with GAAP as in effect from time to time, applied on a basis consistent
(except for such changes approved by the Companys independent public accountants) with the most recent audited consolidated financial statement of the Company delivered pursuant to Section 10.1.1; provided, that if the Company notifies
the Agent that the Borrowers wish to amend any covenant in Section 11.13 to eliminate the effect of any change in GAAP after December 31, 2002 on the operation of such covenant (or if the Agent notifies the Borrowers that the Required Lenders
wish to amend Section 11.13 for such purpose), then the Borrowers compliance with such covenants shall be determined on the basis of GAAP in effect immediately before the relevant change in GAAP became effective, until either such
notice is withdrawn or such covenant is amended in a manner satisfactory to the Borrowers and the Required Lenders. Neither the Agent nor any Lender will charge an amendment fee for any such amendment, the sole purpose of which is to reflect changes
in GAAP occurring after the Closing Date.



SECTION 2
COMMITMENTS OF THE LENDERS; BORROWING, CONVERSION AND LETTER OF CREDIT PROCEDURES.



2.1 Commitments. On and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each of the Lenders, severally and for itself alone, agrees to make loans to, and to issue or participate in Letters of Credit for
the account of, the Borrowers as follows:



2.1.1 Revolving
Loan Commitment. Each Lender agrees to make loans on a revolving basis (Revolving Loans) from time to time until the Termination Date in such Lenders Pro Rata Share of such aggregate amounts as the Company may request
from all Lenders; provided that the Revolving Outstandings will not at any time exceed the Revolving Commitment Amount. All Borrowers shall be jointly and severally liable for the Revolving Loans and all other Obligations.



2.1.2 L/C Commitment. Subject to Section 2.3.1, the Issuing
Lender agrees to issue Letters of Credit, in each case containing such terms and conditions as are permitted by this Agreement and are reasonably satisfactory to the Issuing Lender (each, a Letter of Credit), at the request of and
for the account of one or more of the Borrowers from time to time before the date which is 30 days prior to the scheduled Termination Date (or any date prior to the scheduled Termination Date so long as such Letters of Credit are Cash
Collateralized) and, as more fully set forth in Section 2.3.2, each Lender agrees to purchase a participation in each such Letter of Credit; provided that (a) the aggregate Stated Amount of all Letters of Credit shall not at any time
exceed $15,000,000 and (b) the Revolving Outstandings shall not at any time exceed the Revolving Commitment Amount.



2.2 Loan Procedures.



2.2.1 Various Types of Loans. Each Revolving Loan shall be divided into tranches which are either a Base Rate Loan or a LIBOR Loan (each a
type of Loan), as the Company shall specify in the related Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation pursuant



---

to Section 2.2.2 or 2.2.3. LIBOR Loans having the same Interest Period are sometimes called a Group or collectively
Groups. Base Rate Loans and LIBOR Loans may be outstanding at the same time, provided that not more than ten (10) different Groups of LIBOR Loans shall be outstanding at any one time. All borrowings, conversions and
repayments of Revolving Loans shall be effected so that each Lender will have a ratable share (according to its Pro Rata Share) of all types and Groups of Loans. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of this Agreement, the Company may
not select any Interest Period for a LIBOR Loan which is longer than one month prior to the earlier of (x) 90 days after the Closing Date and (y) the date that the Agent notifies the Company that it has completed its primary syndication of the Loans
and the Commitments.



2.2.2 Borrowing Procedures. The
Company shall give written notice (each such written notice, a Notice of Borrowing) substantially in the form of Exhibit E or telephonic notice (followed immediately by a Notice of Borrowing) to the Agent of each proposed
borrowing not later than (a) in the case of a Base Rate borrowing, 11:00 A.M., Chicago time, on the proposed date of such borrowing, and (b) in the case of a LIBOR borrowing, 11:00 A.M., Chicago time, at least three Business Days prior to the
proposed date of such borrowing. Each such notice shall be effective upon receipt by the Agent, shall be irrevocable, and shall specify the date, amount and type of borrowing and, in the case of a LIBOR borrowing, the initial Interest Period
therefor. Promptly upon receipt of such notice, the Agent shall advise each Lender thereof. Not later than 1:00 P.M., Chicago time, on the date of a proposed borrowing, each Lender shall provide the Agent at the office specified by the Agent with
immediately available funds covering such Lenders Pro Rata Share of such borrowing and, so long as the Agent has not received written notice that the conditions precedent set forth in Section 12 with respect to such borrowing have not
been satisfied, the Agent shall pay over the funds received by the Agent to the Borrowers designated by the Company or, in absence of such designation, to or as directed by the Company on the requested borrowing date. Each borrowing shall be on a
Business Day. Each Base Rate borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount of at least $500,000 and an integral multiple of $100,000, and each LIBOR borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount of at least $1,000,000 and an integral multiple of at least
$500,000.



2.2.3 Conversion and Continuation Procedures.
(a) Subject to Section 2.2.1, the Company may, upon irrevocable written notice to the Agent in accordance with clause (b) below:



(A) elect, as of any Business Day, to convert any Loans (or any part thereof in an aggregate amount not less than $1,000,000 or a higher integral multiple
of $500,000) into Loans of another type; or



(B) elect, as of
the last day of the applicable Interest Period, to continue any LIBOR Loans having Interest Periods expiring on such day (or any part thereof in an aggregate amount not less than $1,000,000 or a higher integral multiple of $500,000) for a new
Interest Period;



---

provided that after giving effect to any prepayment, conversion or continuation, the aggregate principal amount of each Group of LIBOR Loans shall be
at least $1,000,000 and an integral multiple of $500,000.



(b)
The Company shall give written notice (each such written notice, a Notice of Conversion/Continuation) substantially in the form of Exhibit F or telephonic notice (followed immediately by a Notice of Conversion/Continuation)
to the Agent of each proposed conversion or continuation not later than (i) in the case of conversion into Base Rate Loans, 11:00 A.M., Chicago time, on the proposed date of such conversion and (ii) in the case of conversion into or continuation of
LIBOR Loans, 11:00 A.M., Chicago time, at least three Business Days prior to the proposed date of such conversion or continuation, specifying in each case:



(A) the proposed date of conversion or continuation;



(B) the aggregate amount of Loans to be converted or continued;



(C) the type of Loans resulting from the proposed conversion or continuation; and



(D) in the case of conversion into, or continuation of, LIBOR Loans, the duration of the requested Interest Period therefor.



(c) If, upon the expiration of any Interest Period applicable
to LIBOR Loans, the Company has failed to select timely a new Interest Period to be applicable to such LIBOR Loans, the Borrowers shall be deemed to have elected to convert such LIBOR Loans into Base Rate Loans effective on the last day of such
Interest Period.



(d) The Agent will promptly notify each
Lender of its receipt of a Notice of Conversion/Continuation pursuant to this Section 2.2.3 or, if no timely notice is provided by the Company, of the details of any automatic conversion.



(e) Any conversion of a LIBOR Loan on a day other than the last day of an
Interest Period therefor shall be subject to Section 8.4.



2.3 Letter of Credit Procedures.



2.3.1 L/C
Applications. The Borrowers shall execute and deliver to the Issuing Lender the Master Letter of Credit Agreement from time to time in effect and the Borrowers shall be jointly and severally liable thereunder for any Letter of Credit issued for
the account of any one or more of the Borrowers. The Company shall give notice to the Agent and the Issuing Lender of the proposed issuance of each Letter of Credit on a Business Day which is at least three (3) Business Days (or such lesser number
of days as the Agent and the Issuing Lender shall agree in any particular instance in their sole discretion) prior to the proposed date of issuance of such Letter of Credit. Each such notice shall be accompanied by an L/C Application, duly executed
by a Borrower and in all respects satisfactory to the Agent and the Issuing Lender, together with such other documentation as the Agent or the Issuing Lender may request in



---

support thereof, it being understood that each L/C Application shall specify, among other things, the date on which the proposed Letter of Credit is to be
issued, the expiration date of such Letter of Credit (which shall not be, except as to any Existing Letter of Credit, later than the earlier to occur of (x) one year after the date of issuance thereof and (y) twenty-five days prior to the scheduled
Termination Date (and any such Letter of Credit with a one-year tenor may provide for the renewal thereof for additional one-year periods which shall in no event extend beyond the foregoing limitations)) and whether such Letter of Credit is to be
transferable in whole or in part. So long as the Issuing Lender has not received written notice that the conditions precedent set forth in Section 12 with respect to the issuance of such Letter of Credit have not been satisfied, the Issuing
Lender shall issue such Letter of Credit on the requested issuance date. The Issuing Lender shall promptly advise the Agent of the issuance of each Letter of Credit and of any amendment thereto, extension thereof or event or circumstance changing
the amount available for drawing thereunder. In the event of any inconsistency between the terms of the Master Letter of Credit Agreement, any L/C Application and the terms of this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall control. All Existing
Letters of Credit shall be deemed to have been issued pursuant hereto, and from and after the Closing Date shall be subject to and governed by the terms and conditions hereof, except that certain of the Existing Letters of Credit have an expiration
date that occurs after the scheduled Termination Date. Thirty (30) days prior to the scheduled Termination Date, the Borrowers shall immediately, jointly and severally, Cash Collateralize all Letters of Credit. Any cash collateral delivered
hereunder shall be held by the Agent (without liability for interest thereon) and applied to the Obligations arising in connection with any drawing under a Letter of Credit. After the expiration or termination of all Letters of Credit, such cash
collateral shall be applied by the Agent to any remaining Obligations hereunder and any excess shall be delivered to the Company or as a court of competent jurisdiction may elect.



2.3.2 Participations in Letters of Credit. Concurrently with the issuance of each Letter of Credit, the Issuing
Lender shall be deemed to have sold and transferred to each Lender, and each such Lender shall be deemed irrevocably and unconditionally to have purchased and received from the Issuing Lender, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and
participation, to the extent of such Lenders Pro Rata Share, in such Letter of Credit and the Borrowers reimbursement obligations with respect thereto. If the Borrowers do not pay any reimbursement obligation when due, the Company shall
be deemed to have immediately requested that the Lenders make a Revolving Loan which is a Base Rate Loan in a principal amount equal to such reimbursement obligations. The Agent shall promptly notify such Lenders of such deemed request and, without
the necessity of compliance with the requirements of Section 2.2.2 and Section 12.2 or otherwise such Lender shall make available to the Agent its Pro Rata Share of such Loan. The proceeds of such Loan shall be paid over by the Agent
to the Issuing Lender for the account of the Company in satisfaction of such reimbursement obligations. For the purposes of this Agreement, the unparticipated portion of each Letter of Credit shall be deemed to be the Issuing Lenders
participation therein. The Issuing Lender hereby agrees, upon request of the Agent or any Lender, to deliver to the Agent or such Lender a list of all outstanding Letters of Credit issued by the Issuing Lender, together with such
information related thereto as the Agent or such Lender may reasonably request.



---

2.3.3 Reimbursement Obligations. (a) The Borrowers hereby jointly and severally and
unconditionally and irrevocably agree to reimburse the Issuing Lender for each payment or disbursement made by the Issuing Lender under any Letter of Credit honoring any demand for payment made by the beneficiary thereunder, in each case on the date
that such payment or disbursement is made. Any amount not reimbursed on the date of such payment or disbursement shall bear interest from the date of such payment or disbursement to the date that the Issuing Lender is reimbursed by the Borrowers
therefor, payable on demand, at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate from time to time in effect plus the Base Rate Margin from time to time in effect plus, beginning on the third Business Day after receipt of notice from the
Issuing Lender of such payment or disbursement, 2%. The Issuing Lender shall notify the Company and the Agent whenever any demand for payment is made under any Letter of Credit by the beneficiary thereunder; provided that the failure of the
Issuing Lender to so notify the Company shall not affect the rights of the Issuing Lender or the Lenders in any manner whatsoever.



(b) The Borrowers joint and several reimbursement obligations hereunder shall be irrevocable and unconditional under all circumstances, including
(i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the existence of any claim, set-off, defense or other right which any Loan Party may have at any time against a beneficiary named in
a Letter of Credit, any transferee of any Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such transferee may be acting), the Agent, the Issuing Lender, any Lender or any other Person, whether in connection with any Letter of Credit, this Agreement,
any other Loan Document, the transactions contemplated herein or any unrelated transactions (including any underlying transaction between any Loan Party and the beneficiary named in any Letter of Credit), (iii) the validity, sufficiency or
genuineness of any document which the Issuing Lender has determined complies on its face with the terms of the applicable Letter of Credit, even if such document should later prove to have been forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any
respect or any statement therein shall have been untrue or inaccurate in any respect, or (iv) the surrender or impairment of any security for the performance or observance of any of the terms hereof. Without limiting the foregoing, no action or
omission whatsoever by the Agent or any Lender (excluding any Lender in its capacity as the Issuing Lender) under or in connection with any Letter of Credit or any related matters shall result in any liability of the Agent or any Lender to the
Borrowers, or relieve the Borrowers of any of their obligations hereunder to any such Person.



2.3.4 Funding by Lenders to Issuing Lender. If the Issuing Lender makes any payment or disbursement under any Letter of Credit and (a) the Borrowers have not reimbursed the Issuing Lender in full for such
payment or disbursement by 11:00 A.M., Chicago time, on the date of such payment or disbursement, (b) a Revolving Loan may not be made in accordance with Section 2.3.2 or (c) any reimbursement received by the Issuing Lender from any Borrower
is or must be returned or rescinded upon or during any bankruptcy or reorganization of any Borrower or otherwise, each other Lender shall be obligated to pay to the Agent for the account of the Issuing Lender, in full or partial payment of the
purchase price of its participation in such Letter of Credit, its Pro Rata Share of such payment or disbursement (but no such payment shall diminish the obligations of the Borrowers under Section 2.3.3), and, upon notice from the Issuing
Lender, the Agent shall promptly notify each other Lender thereof. Each other Lender



---

irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to so pay to the Agent in immediately available funds for the Issuing Lenders account the amount of such other
Lenders Pro Rata Share of such payment or disbursement. If and to the extent any Lender shall not have made such amount available to the Agent by 2:00 P.M., Chicago time, on the Business Day on which such Lender receives notice from the Agent
of such payment or disbursement (it being understood that any such notice received after noon, Chicago time, on any Business Day shall be deemed to have been received on the next following Business Day), such Lender agrees to pay interest on such
amount to the Agent for the Issuing Lenders account forthwith on demand, for each day from the date such amount was to have been delivered to the Agent to the date such amount is paid, at a rate per annum equal to (a) for the first three days
after demand, the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect and (b) thereafter, the Base Rate from time to time in effect. Any Lenders failure to make available to the Agent its Pro Rata Share of any such payment or disbursement shall not
relieve any other Lender of its obligation hereunder to make available to the Agent such other Lenders Pro Rata Share of such payment, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make available to the Agent such
other Lenders Pro Rata Share of any such payment or disbursement.



2.4 Commitments Several. The failure of any Lender to make a requested Loan on any date shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation (if any) to make a Loan on such date, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of
any other Lender to make any Loan to be made by such other Lender.



2.5 Certain Conditions. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, no Lender shall have an obligation to make any Loan, or to permit the continuation of or any conversion into any LIBOR Loan, and the Issuing Lender shall
not have any obligation to issue any Letter of Credit, if an Event of Default or Unmatured Event of Default exists.



2.6 Joint and Several. (a) The obligations of Borrowers under this Agreement and the Loan Documents shall be joint and several and, to the fullest
extent permitted by applicable law, shall not be affected by (i) the failure of Agent, any Lender, or any of their successors or assigns, or any holder of the Notes or any of the Obligations to assert any claim or demand or to exercise or enforce
any right, power or remedy against any other Borrower or the Collateral or otherwise, (ii) any extension or renewal for any period (whether or not longer than the original period) or exchange of any of the Obligations or the release or compromise of
any obligation of any nature of any Person with respect thereto, (iii) the surrender, release or exchange of all or any part of any property (including without limitation the Collateral) securing payment, performance and observance of any of the
Obligations or the compromise or extension or renewal for any period (whether or not longer than the original period) of any obligations of any nature of any Person with respect to any such property, (iv) the invalidity or unenforceability of any of
the Obligations as against any other Borrower, any other guarantor thereof or any other Person, and (v) any other act, matter or thing which would or might, in the absence of this provision, operate to release, discharge or otherwise prejudicially
affect the obligations of Borrowers.



---

(b) To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law and except to the extent that any of the following
are expressly required by the provisions of any of the Loan Documents, each Borrower hereby waives (i) presentment, demand for payment and protest of nonpayment of any of the Obligations, and notices of protest, dishonor or nonperformance, (ii)
notice of any Event of Default or Unmatured Event of Default or Agents or any Lenders inability to enforce performance of the other Borrowers obligations to any holder of Obligations, (iii) demand for performance or observance of,
and any enforcement of any provision of, or any pursuit or exhaustion of rights or remedies with respect to any security for the Obligations or against the other Borrowers or any other Loan Party or guarantor of, the Obligations pursuant to this
Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise, and any requirements of diligence or promptness on the part of any Lender or any holder of the Obligations in connection therewith, (iv) any action or nonaction on the part of Agent or any Lender or
any holder of Obligations which may impair or prejudice the rights of any Borrower, including without limitation subrogation rights or rights to obtain exoneration, contribution, indemnification or any other reimbursement or compensation from any
other Borrower, any other guarantor or Borrowers in respect of the Obligations or any other Person, (v) failure or delay to perfect or continue the perfection of any security interest in any Collateral, (vi) any action which harms or impairs the
value of, or any failure to preserve or protect the value of, any Collateral, (vii) any defense based upon an election of remedies by Agent or any Lender or the holders of the Obligations, (viii) any defense based upon any statute or rule of law
which provides that the obligation of a surety must be neither larger in amount nor in other respects more burdensome than that of the principal, (ix) any and all demands and notices of every kind and description, including notice of the creation of
any of the Obligations, with respect to the foregoing or which may be required to be given by any statute or rule of law and (x) all defenses (other than indefeasible payment in full) which any Borrower may now or hereafter have to the payment of
the Obligations which could otherwise be asserted by such Borrower. In addition to the defenses referred to above which have been expressly waived hereunder, each Borrower waives all other defenses (other than indefeasible payment in full) which it
may now or hereafter have to the payment by it of the Obligations. No delay or omission on the part of Agent or any Lender or any holder of any Obligation or with respect to the Collateral shall operate as a waiver or relinquishment of such right.
No action which Agent or any Lender, the holder of any Obligation, any Borrower or any other Loan Party may take or refrain from taking with respect to the Obligations, including any amendments thereto or modifications thereof or waivers with
respect thereto, shall affect the provisions of this Agreement or the obligations of Borrowers hereunder. None of the rights of Agent or any Lender or of any holder of any Obligation shall at any time in any way be prejudiced or impaired by any act
or failure to act on the part of any of them or any Borrower or any other Loan Party, by any noncompliance by any Borrower with the terms, provisions and covenants of this Agreement, regardless of any knowledge thereof which Agent or any Lender or
any holder of the Obligations may have or otherwise be charged with. Each Borrower hereby agrees to waive, and does hereby absolutely and irrevocably waive and relinquish the benefit and advantage of, and does hereby covenant not to assert, any
appraisement, valuation, stay, extension, redemption or similar laws, now or at any time hereafter in force, which might delay, prevent or otherwise impede the performance or enforcement of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the
Obligations. Each Borrowers obligations under this Section 2.6 shall not be affected by the



---

invalidity or unenforceability of any of the Obligations as against the other Borrowers, any other guarantor thereof or
any other Person. For purposes of this Section 2.6, the Obligations shall be due and payable when and as the same shall be so due and payable under the terms of any Loan Document, notwithstanding the fact that the collection or enforcement
thereof may be stayed or enjoined under Title 11 of the United States Code, as from time to time in effect, or other applicable law, regulation or order.



(c) To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Borrower hereby grants to Agent full power in its uncontrolled discretion, without notice to
such Borrower, such notice being hereby expressly waived, and without in any way affecting the joint and several liability of such Borrower under this Agreement:



(i) To waive compliance with, and any Event of Default or Unmatured Event of Default under, and to consent
to any amendment to or modification of any term or provision of, or to give any waiver in respect of, any other Loan Document, the Collateral, the Obligations or any guarantee thereof (each as from time to time in effect);



(ii) To grant any one or more extensions or renewals of the
Obligations (for any period, no matter how long), or any total or partial release (by operation of law or otherwise), discharge, compromise or settlement with respect to the obligations of any Borrower or any other Person in respect of the
Obligations, whether or not rights against the other Borrowers under this Section 2.6 are reserved in connection therewith;



(iii) To take security in any form for the Obligations, and to the extent permitted in any security agreement to consent to (A) the
addition to, (B) the substitution, exchange, surrender, release or other disposition of, or (C) deal in any other manner with, all or any part of any property contained in the Collateral whether or not the property, if any, received upon the
exercise of such power shall be of a character or value the same as or different from the character or value of any property disposed of, and to obtain, modify or release any present or future guarantees of the Obligations and at any time after the
occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default to proceed against any of the Collateral or such guarantees in any order;



(iv) To, at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, collect or liquidate any of the Obligations
or the Collateral in any manner or to refrain from collecting or liquidating any of the Obligations or the Collateral; and



(v) To extend credit under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or otherwise, in such amount as Agent or any Lender may determine,
even though the condition of Borrowers (financial or otherwise on an individual or consolidated basis) may have deteriorated since the date hereof.



(d) Each Borrower acknowledges and agrees that it has made such investigation as it deems desirable of the risks undertaken by such Borrower in entering
into this Agreement and is



---

fully satisfied that it understands all such risks. Each Borrower hereby waives any obligation which may now or hereafter exist on the part of Agent or any
Lender or any holder of any Obligation to inform such Person of the risks being undertaken by entering into this Agreement or of any changes in such risks and, from and after the date hereof, each Borrower undertakes to keep itself informed of such
risks and any changes therein. Further, each Borrower hereby expressly waives any duty which may now or hereafter exist on the part of Agent or any Lender or any holder of any Obligation to disclose to such Borrower any matter related to the
business, operations, character, collateral, credit or condition (financial or otherwise) of any Related Party (including the other Borrowers) or Affiliates or its or their properties or management, whether now or hereafter known by any one or more
of Agent and Lenders or any holder of any Obligation. Each Borrower represents, warrants and agrees that it assumes sole responsibility for obtaining from each other Borrower all information concerning this Agreement and all other Loan Documents and
all other information as to any other Loan Party and Affiliates or their properties or management or anything relating to any of the above as such Borrower deems necessary or desirable.



(e) Each Borrower hereby covenants and agrees that (i) it will not enforce or otherwise exercise any rights of
reimbursement, subrogation, contribution or other similar rights with respect to the Obligations against any Person, including without limitation any other guarantor of the Obligations or the other Borrowers, prior to the payment in full of the
Obligations and the termination of the Commitments hereunder, and (ii) all Indebtedness, claims and Obligations now or hereafter owing by the other Borrowers to such Borrower are hereby subordinated to the prior payment in full of the Obligations
and are so subordinated as a claim against the other Borrowers or any of their assets, whether such claim be in the ordinary course of business or in the event of voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution, insolvency or bankruptcy, so that
no payment with respect to any such Indebtedness, claim or liability will be made or received while any of the Obligations (including Obligations relating to Letters of Credit) are outstanding or prior to the termination of Lenders commitments
hereunder.



SECTION 3 EVIDENCING OF LOANS.



3.1 Notes. The Loans of each Lender shall be evidenced by a Note,
with appropriate insertions, payable to the order of such Lender in a face principal amount equal to the sum of such Lenders Commitment.



3.2 Recordkeeping. The Agent, on behalf of each Lender, shall record in its records, the date and amount of each Loan made by each Lender, each
repayment or conversion thereof and, in the case of each LIBOR Loan, the dates on which each Interest Period for such Loan shall begin and end. The aggregate unpaid principal amount so recorded shall be rebuttably presumptive evidence of the
principal amount of the Loans owing and unpaid. The failure to so record any such amount or any error in so recording any such amount shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the Obligations of the Borrowers hereunder or under any Note to repay
the principal amount of the Loans hereunder, together with all interest accruing thereon.



---

SECTION 4 INTEREST.



4.1 Interest Rates. Borrowers jointly and severally promise to pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of each
Loan for the period commencing on the date of such Loan until such Loan is paid in full as follows:



(a) at all times while such Loan is a Base Rate Loan, at a rate per annum equal to the sum of the Base Rate from time to time in effect plus the Base Rate
Margin from time to time in effect; and



(b) at all times while
such Loan is a LIBOR Loan, at a rate per annum equal to the sum of the LIBOR Rate applicable to each Interest Period for such Loan plus the LIBOR Margin from time to time in effect;



provided that at any time an Event of Default exists, unless the Required Lenders otherwise consent, the interest rate applicable to
each Loan shall be increased by 2% (and, in the case of monetary Obligations not bearing interest, such monetary Obligations shall bear interest at the Base Rate applicable to Revolving Loans plus 2%), provided further that such
increase may thereafter be rescinded by the Required Lenders, notwithstanding Section 15.1. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default under Section 13.1.1 or 13.1.4, such increase shall occur
automatically.



4.2 Interest Payment Dates. Accrued
interest on each Base Rate Loan shall be payable in arrears on the last day of each calendar quarter and at maturity. Accrued interest on each LIBOR Loan shall be payable on the last day of each Interest Period relating to such Loan (and, in the
case of a LIBOR Loan with an Interest Period in excess of three months, on the three-month anniversary of the first day of such Interest Period), upon a prepayment of such Loan, and at maturity. After maturity, and at any time an Event of Default
exists, accrued interest on all Loans shall be payable on demand.



4.3 Setting and Notice of LIBOR Rates. The applicable LIBOR Rate for each Interest Period shall be determined by the Agent, and notice thereof shall be given by the Agent promptly to the Company and each Lender. Each determination of
the applicable LIBOR Rate by the Agent shall be conclusive and binding upon the parties hereto, in the absence of demonstrable error. The Agent shall, upon written request of the Company or any Lender, deliver to the Company or such Lender a
statement showing the computations used by the Agent in determining any applicable LIBOR Rate hereunder.



4.4 Computation of Interest. Interest shall be computed for the actual number of days elapsed on the basis of a year of 360 days. The applicable
interest rate for each Base Rate Loan shall change simultaneously with each change in the Base Rate.



SECTION 5 FEES.



5.1 Non-Use Fee. Borrowers jointly and severally agree to pay to the Agent for the account of each Lender a non-use fee, for the period from the
Closing Date to the Termination



---

Date, at the Non-Use Fee Rate in effect from time to time of such Lenders Pro Rata Share (as adjusted from time to time) of the unused amount of the
Revolving Commitment Amount. For purposes of calculating usage under this Section, the Revolving Commitment Amount shall be deemed used to the extent of Revolving Outstandings. Such non-use fee shall be payable in arrears on the last Business Day of
each calendar quarter and on the Termination Date for any period then ending for which such non-use fee shall not have previously been paid. The non-use fee shall be computed for the actual number of days elapsed on the basis of a year of 360 days.



5.2 Letter of Credit Fees. (a) Borrowers jointly and
severally agree to pay to the Agent for the account of each Lender a letter of credit fee for each Letter of Credit equal to the L/C Fee Rate in effect from time to time of such Lenders Pro Rata Share (as adjusted from time to time) of the
undrawn amount of such Letter of Credit (computed for the actual number of days elapsed on the basis of a year of 360 days); provided that, unless the Required Lenders otherwise consent, the rate applicable to each Letter of Credit shall be
increased by 2% at any time that an Event of Default exists. Such letter of credit fee shall be payable in arrears on the last day of each calendar quarter and on the Termination Date (or such later date on which such Letter of Credit expires or is
terminated) for the period from the date of the issuance of each Letter of Credit (or the last day on which the letter of credit fee was paid with respect thereto) to the date such payment is due or, if earlier, the date on which such Letter of
Credit expired or was terminated.



(b) In addition, with
respect to each Letter of Credit, Borrowers jointly and severally agree to pay to the Issuing Lender, for its own account, (i) such fees and expenses as the Issuing Lender customarily requires in connection with the issuance, negotiation, processing
and/or administration of letters of credit in similar situations and (ii) a letter of credit fronting fee in the amount and at the times agreed to by the Company and the Issuing Lender.



5.3 Agents Fees. Borrowers jointly and severally agree to pay to the Agent such agents fees as are
mutually agreed to from time to time by the Company and the Agent including the fees set forth in the Agent Fee Letter.

6.1.1 Voluntary Reduction or Termination of the Revolving Commitment
Amount. The Company may from time to time on at least five (5) Business Days prior written notice received by the Agent (which shall promptly advise each Lender thereof) permanently reduce the Revolving Commitment Amount to an amount not
less than the Revolving Outstandings. Any such reduction shall be in an amount not less than $1,000,000 or a higher integral multiple of $1,000,000. Concurrently with any reduction of the Revolving Commitment Amount to zero, Borrowers shall pay all
interest on the Revolving Loans, all non-use fees and all letter of credit fees and shall Cash Collateralize in full all obligations arising with respect to the Letters of Credit.



---

among the Lenders according to their respective Pro Rata Shares.



6.2 Prepayments.



6.2.1 Voluntary

of such prepayment (which shall be a Business Day), specifying the Loans to be prepaid and the date and amount of prepayment. Any such partial prepayment shall be in an amount equal to $1,000,000 or a higher integral multiple of $500,000.



6.2.2 Mandatory Prepayments.



(a) Borrowers jointly and severally agree to make a prepayment (subject to
the provisions of Section 6.2.2(b)) on the Revolving Loans upon the occurrence of any of the following (each a Mandatory Prepayment Event) at the following times and in the following amounts (such applicable amounts being referred
to as Designated Proceeds):



| | (i) | the receipt by any Related Party of any Net Cash Proceeds from any Asset Disposition, in an amount equal to 100% of such Net Cash Proceeds;
| | --- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (ii) | concurrently with the receipt by any Related Party of any Net Cash Proceeds from any issuance of any Debt of any Related Party (other than Debt permitted by Section 11.1
hereof), in an amount equal to 100% of such Net Cash Proceeds.
| | ---- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



(b) If on any day on which the Revolving Commitment Amount is reduced pursuant to Section 6.1.2 the Revolving Outstandings exceeds the Revolving Commitment Amount, Borrowers jointly and severally agree to
immediately prepay Revolving Loans or Cash Collateralize the outstanding Letters of Credit, or do a combination of the foregoing, in an amount sufficient to eliminate such excess.



6.3 Manner of All Prepayments. Each voluntary partial prepayment shall be in a principal amount of $1,000,000 or a
higher integral multiple of $500,000. Any partial prepayment of a Group of LIBOR Loans shall be subject to the proviso to Section 2.2.3(a). Any prepayment of a LIBOR Loan on a day other than the last day of an Interest Period therefor shall
include interest on the principal amount being repaid and shall be subject to Section 8.4. Except as otherwise provided by this Agreement, all principal payments in respect of the Loans shall be applied first, to repay outstanding Base Rate
Loans and then to repay outstanding LIBOR Rate Loans in direct order of Interest Period maturities.



---

6.4 Repayments of Revolving Loans. The Revolving Loans of each Lender shall be paid in full and
the Revolving Commitment Amount shall terminate on the Termination Date.



SECTION 7 MAKING AND PRORATION OF PAYMENTS; SETOFF; TAXES.



7.1 Making of Payments. All payments of principal of or interest on the Notes, and of all fees, shall be made by Borrowers to the Agent in immediately available funds at the office specified by the Agent not
later than noon, Chicago time, on the date due; and funds received after that hour shall be deemed to have been received by the Agent on the following Business Day. The Agent shall promptly remit to each Lender its share of all such payments
received in collected funds by the Agent for the account of such Lender. All payments under Section 8.1 shall be made by Borrowers directly to the Lender entitled thereto without setoff, counterclaim or other defense.



7.2 Application of Certain Payments. So long as no Unmatured Event of
Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (a) payments matching specific scheduled payments then due shall be applied to those scheduled payments and (b) voluntary and mandatory prepayments shall be applied as set forth in

upon, all or any part of the Collateral shall be applied as the Agent shall determine in its discretion. Concurrently with each remittance to any Lender of its share of any such payment, the Agent shall advise such Lender as to the application of
such payment.



7.3 Due Date Extension. If any payment of
principal or interest with respect to any of the Loans, or of any fees, falls due on a day which is not a Business Day, then such due date shall be extended to the immediately following Business Day (unless, in the case of a LIBOR Loan, such
immediately following Business Day is the first Business Day of a calendar month, in which case such due date shall be the immediately preceding Business Day) and, in the case of principal, additional interest shall accrue and be payable for the
period of any such extension.



7.4 Setoff. Borrowers
agree that the Agent and each Lender have all rights of set-off and bankers lien provided by applicable law, and in addition thereto, each Borrower agrees that at any time any Event of Default exists, the Agent and each Lender may apply to the
payment of any Obligations of any Borrower hereunder, whether or not then due, any and all balances, credits, deposits, accounts or moneys of each Borrower then or thereafter with the Agent or such Lender.



7.5 Proration of Payments. If any Lender shall obtain any payment or
other recovery (whether voluntary, involuntary, by application of offset or otherwise, on account of (a) principal of or interest on any Loan, but excluding (i) any payment pursuant to Section 8.7 or Section 15.6 and (ii) payments of
interest on any Affected Loan) or (b) its participation in any Letter of



---

Credit) in excess of its applicable Pro Rata Share of payments and other recoveries obtained by all Lenders on account of principal of and interest on the
Loans (or such participation) then held by them, then such Lender shall purchase from the other Lenders such participations in the Loans (or sub-participations in Letters of Credit) held by them as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender
to share the excess payment or other recovery ratably with each of them; provided that if all or any portion of the excess payment or other recovery is thereafter recovered from such purchasing Lender, the purchase shall be rescinded and the
purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery.



7.6
Taxes.



(a) All payments made by Borrowers hereunder or
under any Loan Documents shall be made without setoff, counterclaim, or other defense. To the extent permitted by applicable law, all payments hereunder or under the Loan Documents (including any payment of principal, interest, or fees) to, or for
the benefit, of any Person shall be made by Borrowers free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for, or account of, any Taxes now or hereinafter imposed by any taxing authority.



(b) If any Borrower makes any payment hereunder or under any Loan Document in
respect of which it is required by applicable law to deduct or withhold any Taxes, Borrowers shall increase the payment hereunder or under any such Loan Document such that after the reduction for the amount of Taxes withheld (and any taxes withheld
or imposed with respect to the additional payments required under this Section 7.6(b)), the amount paid to the Lenders or the Agent equals the amount that was payable hereunder or under any such Loan Document without regard to this Section
7.6(b). To the extent any Borrower withholds any Taxes on payments hereunder or under any Loan Document, Borrowers jointly and severally agree to pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxing authority within the time allowed for payment
under applicable law and shall deliver to the Agent within 30 days after it has made payment to such authority a receipt issued by such authority (or other evidence satisfactory to the Agent) evidencing the payment of all amounts so required to be
deducted or withheld from such payment.



(c) If any Lender or
the Agent is required by law to make any payments of any Taxes on or in relation to any amounts received or receivable hereunder or under any other Loan Document, or any Tax is assessed against a Lender or the Agent with respect to amounts received
or receivable hereunder or under any other Loan Document, Borrowers jointly and severally agree to indemnify such person against (i) such Tax (and any reasonable counsel fees and expenses associated with such Tax) and (ii) any taxes imposed as a
result of the receipt of the payment under this Section 7.6(c). A certificate prepared in good faith as to the amount of such payment by such Lender or the Agent shall, absent manifest error, be final, conclusive, and binding on all parties.



(d) (i) To the extent permitted by applicable law, each Lender
that is not a United States person within the meaning of section 7701(a)(30) of the Code (a Non-U.S. Participant) shall deliver to the Company and the Agent on or prior to the Closing Date (or in the case of a



---

Lender that is an Assignee, on the date of such assignment to such Lender) two accurate and complete original signed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN, W-8ECI, or
W-8IMY (or any successor or other applicable form prescribed by the IRS) certifying to such Lenders entitlement to a complete exemption from, or a reduced rate in, United States withholding tax on interest payments to be made hereunder or on
any Loan. If a Lender that is a Non-U.S. Participant is claiming a complete exemption from withholding on interest pursuant to Sections 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code, the Lender shall deliver (along with two accurate and complete original signed
copies of IRS Form W-8BEN) a certificate in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Agent (any such certificate, a Withholding Certificate). In addition, each Lender that is a Non-U.S. Participant agrees that from time to time
after the Closing Date (or in the case of a Lender that is an Assignee, after the date of the assignment to such Lender), when a lapse in time (or change in circumstances occurs) renders the prior certificates hereunder obsolete or inaccurate in any
material respect, such Lender shall, to the extent permitted under applicable law, deliver to the Company and the Agent two new and accurate and complete original signed copies of an IRS Form W-8BEN, W-8ECI, or W-8IMY (or any successor or other
applicable forms prescribed by the IRS), and if applicable, a new Withholding Certificate, to confirm or establish the entitlement of such Lender or the Agent to an exemption from, or reduction in, United States withholding tax on interest payments
to be made hereunder or on any Loan.



(ii) Each Lender that is
not a Non-U.S. Participant (other than any such Lender which is taxed as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes) shall provide two properly completed and duly executed copies of IRS Form W-9 (or any successor or other applicable form) to
the Company and the Agent certifying that such Lender is exempt from United States backup withholding tax. To the extent that a form provided pursuant to this Section 7.6(d)(ii) is rendered obsolete or inaccurate in any material respects as a
result of change in circumstances with respect to the status of a Lender, such Lender shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, deliver to the Company and the Agent revised forms necessary to confirm or establish the entitlement to such
Lenders or Agents exemption from United States backup withholding tax.



(iii) Borrowers shall not be required to pay additional amounts to a Lender, or indemnify any Lender, under this Section 7.6 to the extent that such obligations would not have arisen but for the failure of such
Lender to comply with this Section 7.6(d).



SECTION 8
INCREASED COSTS; SPECIAL PROVISIONS FOR LIBOR LOANS.



8.1
Increased Costs. (a) If, after the date hereof, the adoption of, or any change in, any applicable law, rule or regulation, or any change in the interpretation or administration of any applicable law, rule or regulation by any governmental
authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any Lender with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or
comparable agency: (i) shall impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve (including any reserve imposed by the FRB, but excluding any reserve included in the determination of the LIBOR Rate pursuant to Section 4), special deposit or similar
requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by any Lender; or (ii) shall impose on any Lender any other condition affecting its LIBOR Loans, its Note or its



---

obligation to make LIBOR Loans; and the result of anything described in clauses (i) and (ii) above is to increase the cost to (or to impose a cost on) such
Lender (or any LIBOR Office of such Lender) of making or maintaining any LIBOR Loan, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender (or its LIBOR Office) under this Agreement or under its Note with respect thereto, then
upon demand by such Lender (which demand shall be accompanied by a statement setting forth the basis for such demand and a calculation of the amount thereof in reasonable detail, a copy of which shall be furnished to the Agent), Borrowers jointly
and severally agree to pay directly to such Lender such additional amount as will compensate such Lender for such increased cost or such reduction, so long as such amounts have accrued on or after the day which is 180 days prior to the date on which
such Lender first made demand therefor.



(b) If any Lender
shall reasonably determine that any change in, or the adoption or phase-in of, any applicable law, rule or regulation regarding capital adequacy, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental authority, central
bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or the compliance by any Lender or any Person controlling such Lender with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of
law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lenders or such controlling Persons capital as a consequence of such Lenders obligations hereunder
or under any Letter of Credit to a level below that which such Lender or such controlling Person could have achieved but for such change, adoption, phase-in or compliance (taking into consideration such Lenders or such controlling
Persons policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by such Lender or such controlling Person to be material, then from time to time, upon demand by such Lender (which demand shall be accompanied by a statement setting forth
the basis for such demand and a calculation of the amount thereof in reasonable detail, a copy of which shall be furnished to the Agent), Borrowers jointly and severally agree to pay to such Lender such additional amount as will compensate such
Lender or such controlling Person for such reduction so long as such amounts have accrued on or after the day which is 180 days prior to the date on which such Lender first made demand therefor.



8.2 Basis for Determining Interest Rate Inadequate or Unfair. If



(a) the Agent reasonably determines (which determination
shall be binding and conclusive on Borrowers absent manifest error) that by reason of circumstances affecting the interbank LIBOR market adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable LIBOR Rate; or



(b) the Required Lenders advise the Agent that the LIBOR Rate as determined
by the Agent will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of maintaining or funding LIBOR Loans for such Interest Period (taking into account any amount to which such Lenders may be entitled under Section 8.1) or that the
making or funding of LIBOR Loans has become impracticable as a result of an event occurring after the date of this Agreement which in the opinion of such Lenders materially affects such Loans;



---

then the Agent shall promptly notify the other parties thereof and, so long as such circumstances shall continue, (i) no Lender shall be under any
obligation to make or convert any Base Rate Loans into LIBOR Loans and (ii) on the last day of the current Interest Period for each LIBOR Loan, such Loan shall, unless then repaid in full, automatically convert to a Base Rate Loan.



8.3 Changes in Law Rendering LIBOR Loans Unlawful. If any change in,
or the adoption of, any new law or regulation, or any change in the interpretation of any applicable law or regulation by any governmental or other regulatory body charged with the administration thereof, should make it (or in the good faith
judgment of any Lender cause a substantial question as to whether it is) unlawful for any Lender to make, maintain or fund LIBOR Loans, then such Lender shall promptly notify each of the other parties hereto and, so long as such circumstances shall
continue, (a) such Lender shall have no obligation to make or convert any Base Rate Loan into a LIBOR Loan (but shall make Base Rate Loans concurrently with the making of or conversion of Base Rate Loans into LIBOR Loans by the Lenders which are not
so affected, in each case in an amount equal to the amount of LIBOR Loans which would be made or converted into by such Lender at such time in the absence of such circumstances) and (b) on the last day of the current Interest Period for each LIBOR
Loan of such Lender (or, in any event, on such earlier date as may be required by the relevant law, regulation or interpretation), such LIBOR Loan shall, unless then repaid in full, automatically convert to a Base Rate Loan. Each Base Rate Loan made
by a Lender which, but for the circumstances described in the foregoing sentence, would be a LIBOR Loan (an Affected Loan) shall remain outstanding for the period corresponding to the Group of LIBOR Loans of which such Affected
Loan would be a part absent such circumstances.



8.4 Funding
Losses. Borrowers hereby agree that upon demand by any Lender (which demand shall be accompanied by a statement setting forth the basis for the amount being claimed, a copy of which shall be furnished to the Agent), Borrowers jointly and
severally will indemnify such Lender against any net loss or expense which such Lender may sustain or incur (including any net loss or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender
to fund or maintain any LIBOR Loan), as reasonably determined by such Lender, as a result of (a) any payment, prepayment or conversion of any LIBOR Loan of such Lender on a date other than the last day of an Interest Period for such Loan (including
any conversion pursuant to Section 8.3) or (b) any failure of Borrowers to borrow, convert or continue any Loan on a date specified therefor in a Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation pursuant to this Agreement. For this
purpose, all notices to the Agent pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed to be irrevocable.



8.5 Right of Lenders to Fund through Other Offices. Each Lender may, if it so elects, fulfill its commitment as to any LIBOR Loan by causing a
foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan; provided that in such event for the purposes of this Agreement such Loan shall be deemed to have been made by such Lender and the obligation of Borrowers to repay such Loan shall
nevertheless be to such Lender and shall be deemed held by it, to the extent of such Loan, for the account of such branch or Affiliate.



---

8.6 Discretion of Lenders as to Manner of Funding. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement
to the contrary, each Lender shall be entitled to fund and maintain its funding of all or any part of its Loans in any manner it sees fit, it being understood, however, that for the purposes of this Agreement all determinations hereunder shall be
made as if such Lender had actually funded and maintained each LIBOR Loan during each Interest Period for such Loan through the purchase of deposits having a maturity corresponding to such Interest Period and bearing an interest rate equal to the
LIBOR Rate for such Interest Period.



8.7 Mitigation of
Circumstances; Replacement of Lenders. (a) Each Lender shall promptly notify the Company and the Agent of any event of which it has knowledge which will result in, and will use reasonable commercial efforts available to it (and not, in such
Lenders sole judgment, otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender) to mitigate or avoid, (i) any obligation by Borrowers to pay any amount pursuant to Section 7.6 or 8.1 or (ii) the occurrence of any circumstances described in
Section 8.2 or 8.3 (and, if any Lender has given notice of any such event described in clause (i) or (ii) above and thereafter such event ceases to exist, such Lender shall promptly so notify the Company and the Agent). Without
limiting the foregoing, each Lender will designate a different funding office if such designation will avoid (or reduce the cost to Borrowers of) any event described in clause (i) or (ii) above and such designation will not, in such Lenders
sole judgment, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender.



(b) If Borrowers become obligated to pay additional amounts to any Lender pursuant to Section 7.6 or 8.1, or any Lender gives notice of the occurrence of any circumstances described in Section 8.2 or 8.3, the
Company may designate another bank which is acceptable to the Agent and the Issuing Lender in their reasonable discretion (such other bank being called a Replacement Lender) to purchase the Loans of such Lender and such
Lenders rights hereunder, without recourse to or warranty by, or expense to, such Lender, for a purchase price equal to the outstanding principal amount of the Loans payable to such Lender plus any accrued but unpaid interest on such Loans and
all accrued but unpaid fees owed to such Lender and any other amounts payable to such Lender under this Agreement, and to assume all the obligations of such Lender hereunder, and, upon such purchase and assumption (pursuant to an Assignment
Agreement), such Lender shall no longer be a party hereto or have any rights hereunder (other than rights with respect to indemnities and similar rights applicable to such Lender prior to the date of such purchase and assumption) and shall be
relieved from all obligations to Borrowers hereunder, and the Replacement Lender shall succeed to the rights and obligations of such Lender hereunder.



8.8 Conclusiveness of Statements; Survival of Provisions. Determinations and statements of any Lender pursuant to Section 8.1, 8.2,
8.3 or 8.4 shall be conclusive absent demonstrable error. Lenders may use reasonable averaging and attribution methods in determining compensation under Sections 8.1 and 8.4, and the provisions of such Sections shall
survive repayment of the Obligations, cancellation of any Notes, expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit and termination of this Agreement.



---

9.4 Financial Condition. The audited consolidated financial statements of the Company and its Subsidiaries as at December 31, 2002 and the

9.7 Ownership of Properties; Liens. The Company and each of its
Subsidiaries owns good and, in the case of real property, marketable title to all of its material properties and assets, real and personal, tangible and intangible, of any nature whatsoever (including patents, trademarks, trade names, service marks

(20%) of the Total Plan Liability for all such Pension Plans. Each Pension Plan complies in all material respects with all applicable requirements of law and regulations. No contribution failure under Section 412 of the Code, Section 302 of ERISA or

threatened claims, actions, investigations or lawsuits against any Pension Plan, any fiduciary of any Pension Plan, or the Company or any other member of the Controlled Group with respect to a Pension Plan or a Multiemployer Pension Plan which would
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Neither the Company nor any other member of the Controlled Group has engaged in any prohibited transaction (as defined in Section 4975 of the Code or Section 406 of ERISA) in connection with
any Pension Plan or Multiemployer Pension Plan which would subject that Person to any material liability. Within the past five years, neither the Company nor any other member of the Controlled Group has engaged in a transaction which resulted in a
Pension Plan with an

Pension Plan is in reorganization, that increased contributions may be required to avoid a reduction in plan benefits or the imposition of any excise tax, that any such plan is or has been funded at a rate less than that required under Section 412
of the Code, that any such plan is or may be terminated, or that any such plan is or may become insolvent.

its books. The Related Parties have made adequate reserves on their books and records in accordance with GAAP for all taxes that have accrued but which are not yet due and payable. No Related Party has participated in any transaction that relates to
a year of the taxpayer (which is still open under the applicable statute of limitations) which is a reportable transaction within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.6011-4(b)(2) (irrespective of the date when the transaction
was entered into).



---

as reasonably determined by the Company, the Subsidiary shall not be required to guaranty such Obligations or grant a security interest in its assets (other than Capital Securities of another Pledged Subsidiary) so long as the holders of its Capital
Securities grant to Agent a first priority perfected Lien in 65% of its issued and outstanding Capital Securities of each class pursuant to a Pledge Agreement and other Loan Documents satisfactory in form and substance to the Agent.

---

to be satisfied as to each such Person upon the occurrence of such transfer (including without limitation the receipt by
the Agent of a first priority perfected Lien in 65% of the Capital Securities of each such Person).

SECTION 14 THE
AGENT.



14.1 Appointment and Authorization. Each Lender
hereby irrevocably (subject to Section 14.9) appoints, designates and authorizes the Agent to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and each other Loan Document and to exercise such powers and perform such
duties as are expressly delegated to it by the terms of this Agreement



---

or any other Loan Document, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding any provision
to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, the Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility except those expressly set forth herein, nor shall the Agent have or be deemed to have any fiduciary
relationship with any Lender or participant, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist against the Agent. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the term agent herein and in other Loan Documents with reference to the Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under
agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties.



14.1.1 Issuing Lender. The Issuing Lender shall act on behalf of the
Lenders (according to their Pro Rata Shares) with respect to any Letters of Credit issued by it and the documents associated therewith. The Issuing Lender shall have all of the benefits and immunities (a) provided to the Agent in this Section
14 with respect to any acts taken or omissions suffered by the Issuing Lender in connection with Letters of Credit issued by it or proposed to be issued by it and the applications and agreements for letters of credit pertaining to such Letters
of Credit as fully as if the term Agent, as used in this Section 14, included the Issuing Lender with respect to such acts or omissions and (b) as additionally provided in this Agreement with respect to the Issuing Lender.



14.1.2 Delegation of Duties. The Agent may execute any
of its duties under this Agreement or any other Loan Document by or through agents, employees or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel and other consultants or experts concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. The
Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agent or attorney-in-fact that it selects in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct.



14.1.3 Exculpation of Agent. None of the Agent nor any of its directors, officers, employees or agents shall (a) be
liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions contemplated hereby (except to the extent resulting from its own gross negligence or willful
misconduct in connection with its duties expressly set forth herein as determined by a final, nonappealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction), or (b) be responsible in any manner to any Lender or Participant for any recital, statement,
representation or warranty made by any Related Party or Affiliate of the Company, or any officer thereof, contained in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided
for in, or received by the Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or the validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document (or the creation,
perfection or priority of any Lien or security interest therein), or for any failure of any Related Party or any other party to any Loan Document to perform its Obligations hereunder or thereunder. The Agent shall not be under any obligation to any
Lender to ascertain or to inquire



---

as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other
Loan Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of the Company or any of the Companys Subsidiaries or Affiliates.



14.2 Reliance by Agent. The Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing, communication, signature,
resolution, representation, notice, consent, certificate, electronic mail message, affidavit, letter, telegram, facsimile, telex or telephone message, statement or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have
been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to any Related Party), independent accountants and other experts selected by the Agent. The Agent shall be fully justified
in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders (or all Lenders or any affected Lender, respectively, for matters requiring
the consent of all Lenders or any affected Lender, respectively, pursuant to Section 15.1) as it deems appropriate and, if it so requests, confirmation from the Lenders of their obligation to indemnify the Agent against any and all liability
and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. The Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement or any other Loan Document in accordance
with a request or consent of the Required Lenders and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon each Lender. For purposes of determining compliance with the conditions specified in Section 12,
each Lender that has signed this Agreement shall be deemed to have consented to, approved or accepted or to be satisfied with, each document or other matter required thereunder to be consented to or approved by or acceptable or satisfactory to a
Lender unless the Agent shall have received written notice from such Lender prior to the proposed Closing Date specifying its objection thereto.



14.3 Notice of Default. The Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Event of Default or Unmatured Event of
Default except with respect to defaults in the payment of principal, interest and fees required to be paid to the Agent for the account of the Lenders, unless the Agent shall have received written notice from a Lender or the Company referring to
this Agreement, describing such Event of Default or Unmatured Event of Default and stating that such notice is a notice of default. The Agent will notify the Lenders of its receipt of any such notice. The Agent shall take such action
with respect to such Event of Default or Unmatured Event of Default as may be requested by the Required Lenders in accordance with Section 13; provided that unless and until the Agent has received any such request, the Agent may (but
shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Event of Default or Unmatured Event of Default as it shall deem advisable or in the best interest of the Lenders so long as it is not in conflict
with any express provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Documents.



14.4 Credit Decision. Each Lender acknowledges that the Agent has not made any representation or warranty to it, and that no act by the Agent hereafter taken, including any consent and acceptance of any
assignment or review of the affairs of the Related Parties, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by the Agent to any Lender as to any matter,



---

including whether the Agent has disclosed material information in its possession. Each Lender represents to the Agent
that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Agent and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and
other condition and creditworthiness of the Related Parties, and made its own decision to enter into this Agreement and to extend credit to the Related Parties hereunder. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance
upon the Agent and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents,
and to make such investigations as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrowers. Except for notices, reports and other documents
expressly herein required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Agent, the Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial
or other condition or creditworthiness of the Related Parties which may come into the possession of the Agent.



14.5 Indemnification. Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, each Lender shall indemnify upon demand the Agent and
its directors, officers, employees and agents (to the extent not reimbursed by or on behalf of the Borrowers and without limiting the obligation of the Borrowers to do so), according to its applicable Pro Rata Share, from and against any and all
Indemnified Liabilities (as hereinafter defined); provided that no Lender shall be liable for any payment to any such Person of any portion of the Indemnified Liabilities to the extent determined by a final, nonappealable judgment by a court
of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the applicable Persons own gross negligence or willful misconduct. No action taken in accordance with the directions of the Required Lenders (or all the Lenders or any affected Lender if such
action is required to be consented to by all Lenders or any affected Lender pursuant to Section 15.1) shall be deemed to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct for purposes of this Section. Without limitation of the foregoing, each
Lender shall reimburse the Agent upon demand for its ratable share of any costs or out-of-pocket expenses (including Attorney Costs and Taxes) incurred by the Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration,
modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any document contemplated by or
referred to herein, to the extent that the Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by or on behalf of the Borrowers. The undertaking in this Section shall survive repayment of the Loans, cancellation of the Notes, expiration or termination of the
Letters of Credit, any foreclosure under, or modification, release or discharge of, any or all of the Collateral Documents, termination of this Agreement and the resignation or replacement of the Agent.



14.6 Agent in Individual Capacity. LaSalle and its Affiliates may make
loans to, issue letters of credit for the account of, accept deposits from, acquire equity interests in and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory, underwriting or other business with the Related Parties and their
Affiliates as though LaSalle were not the Agent hereunder and without notice to or consent of any Lender. Each Lender acknowledges that, pursuant to such activities,



---

LaSalle or its Affiliates may receive information regarding the Related Parties and their Affiliates (including
information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of a Related Party or such Affiliate) and acknowledges that the Agent shall be under no obligation to provide such information to them. With respect to their Loans (if any),
LaSalle and its Affiliates shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though LaSalle were not the Agent, and the terms Lender and Lenders include LaSalle and
its Affiliates, to the extent applicable, in their individual capacities.



14.7 Successor Agent. The Agent may resign as Agent upon 30 days notice to the Lenders. If the Agent resigns under this Agreement, the Required Lenders shall, with (so long as no Event of Default exists)
the consent of the Company (which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), appoint from among the Lenders a successor agent for the Lenders. If no successor agent is appointed prior to the effective date of the resignation of the Agent, the
Agent may appoint, after consulting with the Lenders and the Company, a successor agent from among the Lenders. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as successor agent hereunder, such successor agent shall succeed to all the rights, powers and
duties of the retiring Agent and the term Agent shall mean such successor agent, and the retiring Agents appointment, powers and duties as Agent shall be terminated. After any retiring Agents resignation hereunder as Agent,
the provisions of this Section 14 and Sections 15.5 and 15.16 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Agent under this Agreement. If no successor agent has accepted
appointment as Agent by the date which is 30 days following a retiring Agents notice of resignation, the retiring Agents resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective and the Lenders shall perform all of the duties of the
Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor agent as provided for above.



14.8 Collateral Matters. The Lenders irrevocably authorize the Agent, at its option and in its discretion, (a) to release any Lien granted to or
held by the Agent under any Collateral Document (i) upon termination of the Commitments and payment in full of all Loans and all other obligations of the Borrowers hereunder and the expiration or termination of all Letters of Credit; (ii)
constituting property sold or to be sold or disposed of as part of or in connection with any Disposition permitted hereunder; or (iii) subject to Section 15.1, if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders; or (b) to
subordinate its interest in any Collateral to any holder of a Lien on such Collateral which is permitted by Section 11.2(d)(i) or (d)(iii) (it being understood that the Agent may conclusively rely on a certificate from the Company in
determining whether the Debt secured by any such Lien is permitted by Section 11.1(b)). Upon request by the Agent at any time, the Lenders will confirm in writing the Agents authority to release, or subordinate its interest in,
particular types or items of Collateral pursuant to this Section 14.8. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Agent to give blockage notices in connection with any Subordinated Debt at the direction of Required Lenders and agrees that it will not
act unilaterally to deliver such notices.



14.9 Agent May
File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to any Related Party, the Agent (irrespective of
whether the



---

principal of any Loan shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective
of whether the Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrowers) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:



(a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans, and all other Obligations that
are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders and the Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders
and the Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders and the Agent under Sections 5, 15.5 and 15.16) allowed in such judicial proceedings; and



(b) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or
deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;



and any custodian,
receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender to make such payments to the Agent and, in the event that the Agent shall consent to the making of
such payments directly to the Lenders, to pay to the Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Agent under Sections 5,
15.5 and 15.16.



Nothing contained herein shall
be deemed to authorize the Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or to authorize the Agent
to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender in any such proceeding.



14.10 Other Agents; Arrangers and Managers. None of the Lenders or other Persons identified on the facing page or signature pages of this Agreement as a syndication agent, documentation agent,
co-agent, book manager, lead manager, arranger, lead arranger or co-arranger, if any, shall have any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this
Agreement other than, in the case of such Lenders, those applicable to all Lenders as such. Without limiting the foregoing, none of the Agent, the Lenders or other Persons so identified shall have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with
any Lender. Each Lender acknowledges that it has not relied, and will not rely, on any of the other Lenders or other Persons so identified in deciding to enter into this Agreement or in taking or not taking action hereunder.



SECTION 15 GENERAL.



15.1 Waiver; Amendments. No delay on the part of the Agent or any
Lender in the exercise of any right, power or remedy shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise by any of them of any right, power or remedy preclude other or further exercise thereof, or the exercise of any other
right, power or remedy. No amendment, modification or waiver of, or consent with respect to, any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan



---

Documents shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and acknowledged and consented to in
writing by the Required Lenders, and then any such amendment, modification, waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given. No amendment, modification, waiver or consent shall (a)
change the Pro Rata Share of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender, (b) extend or increase the Commitment of any Lender (or reinstate any Commitment terminated pursuant to Section 13.2) without the written consent of such
Lender, (c) extend the date scheduled for payment of any principal (excluding mandatory prepayments) of or interest on the Loans or any fees payable hereunder without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby, (d) reduce the
principal amount of any Loan, the rate of interest thereon or any fees payable hereunder, without the consent of each Lender directly affected thereby; or (e) release any party from its obligations under the Guaranty or all or any substantial part
of the collateral granted under the Collateral Documents, change the definition of Required Lenders, any provision of this Section 15.1 or reduce the aggregate Pro Rata Share required to effect an amendment, modification, waiver or consent,
without, in each case, the written consent of all Lenders. No provision of Section 6.2.2 or Section 6.3 with respect to the timing or application of mandatory prepayments of the Loans shall be amended, modified or waived without the
written consent of the Required Lenders. No provision of Section 14 or other provision of this Agreement affecting the Agent in its capacity as such shall be amended, modified or waived without the consent of the Agent. No provision of this
Agreement relating to the rights or duties of the Issuing Lender in its capacity as such shall be amended, modified or waived without the consent of the Issuing Lender.



15.2 Confirmations. The Company and each holder of a Note agree from time to time, upon written request received by
it from the other, to confirm to the other in writing (with a copy of each such confirmation to the Agent) the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Loans then outstanding under such Note.



15.3 Notices. Except as otherwise provided in Sections 2.2.2
and 2.2.3, all notices hereunder shall be in writing (including facsimile transmission) and shall be sent to the applicable party at its address shown on Annex B or at such other address as such party may, by written notice received by
the other parties, have designated as its address for such purpose. Notices sent by facsimile transmission shall be deemed to have been given when sent; notices sent by mail shall be deemed to have been given three Business Days after the date when
sent by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid; and notices sent by hand delivery or overnight courier service shall be deemed to have been given when received. For purposes of Sections 2.2.2 and 2.2.3, the Agent shall be
entitled to rely on telephonic instructions from any person that the Agent in good faith believes is an authorized officer or employee of a Borrower, and the Borrowers shall jointly and severally agree to hold the Agent and each other Lender
harmless from any loss, cost or expense resulting from any such reliance.



15.4 Computations. Where the character or amount of any asset or liability or item of income or expense is required to be determined, or any consolidation or other accounting computation is required to be made,
for the purpose of this Agreement, such determination or calculation shall, to the extent applicable and except as otherwise specified in this Agreement, be



---

made in accordance with GAAP, consistently applied; provided that if the Company notifies the Agent that the
Borrowers wish to amend any covenant in Section 11 (or any related definition) to eliminate or to take into account the effect of any change in GAAP on the operation of such covenant (or if the Agent notifies the Company that the Required
Lenders wish to amend Section 11.13 (or any related definition) for such purpose), then the Borrowers compliance with such covenant shall be determined on the basis of GAAP in effect immediately before the relevant change in GAAP became
effective, until either such notice is withdrawn or such covenant (or related definition) is amended in a manner satisfactory to the Borrowers and the Required Lenders.



15.5 Costs, Expenses and Taxes. The Borrowers agree, jointly and severally, to pay on demand all reasonable
out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Agent (including Attorney Costs and any Taxes) in connection with the preparation, execution, syndication, delivery and administration (including perfection and protection of any Collateral and the costs of
Intralinks, if applicable) of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and all other documents provided for herein or delivered or to be delivered hereunder or in connection herewith (including any amendment, supplement or waiver to any Loan
Document), whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated, and all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including Attorney Costs and any Taxes) incurred by the Agent and each Lender after an Event of
Default in connection with the collection of the Obligations or the enforcement of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or any other documents or during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect thereof. In addition, the Borrowers
agree to pay, jointly and severally, and to save the Agent and the Lenders harmless from all liability for, any fees of the Companys auditors in connection with any reasonable exercise by the Agent and the Lenders of their rights pursuant to
Section 10.2. All Obligations provided for in this Section 15.5 shall survive repayment of the Loans, cancellation of the Notes, expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit and termination of this Agreement.



15.6 Assignments; Participations.



15.6.1 Assignments. (a) Any Lender may at any time assign to one or
more Persons (any such Person, an Assignee) all or any portion of such Lenders Loans and Commitments, with the prior written consent of the Agent, the Issuing Lender (for an assignment of the Revolving Loans and the
Revolving Commitment Amount) and, so long as no Event of Default exists, the Company (which consents of the Agent, the Issuing Lender and the Company shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed and shall not be required for an assignment by a
Lender to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender). Except as the Agent and the Company (so long as no Event of Default exists) may otherwise agree, any such assignment shall be in a minimum aggregate amount equal to $5,000,000 or, if less, the
remaining Commitment and Loans held by the assigning Lender. Each Borrower and the Agent shall be entitled to continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with the interests so assigned to an Assignee until the Agent shall
have received and accepted an effective assignment agreement in substantially the form of Exhibit D hereto (an Assignment Agreement) executed, delivered and fully completed by the applicable parties thereto and a processing
fee of $3,500. No assignment may be made to any Person if at the time of such assignment any Borrower would be obligated to pay



---

any greater amount under Section 7.6 or Section 8 to the Assignee than such Borrower is then obligated to
pay to the assigning Lender under such Sections (and if any assignment is made in violation of the foregoing, such Borrower will not be required to pay such greater amounts). Any attempted assignment not made in accordance with this Section
15.6.1 shall be treated as the sale of a participation under Section 15.6.2. Each Borrower shall be deemed to have granted its consent to any assignment requiring its consent hereunder unless the Company has expressly objected to such
assignment within three Business Days after notice thereof.



(b) From and after the date on which the conditions described above have been met, (i) such Assignee shall be deemed automatically to have become a party hereto and, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned to
such Assignee pursuant to such Assignment Agreement, shall have the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder and (ii) the assigning Lender, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment
Agreement, shall be released from its rights (other than its indemnification rights) and obligations hereunder. Upon the request of the Assignee (and, as applicable, the assigning Lender) pursuant to an effective Assignment Agreement, the Borrowers
shall execute and deliver to the Agent for delivery to the Assignee (and, as applicable, the assigning Lender) a Note in the principal amount of the Assignees Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Commitment Amount (and, as applicable, a Note in the
principal amount of the Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Commitment Amount retained by the assigning Lender). Each such Note shall be dated the effective date of such assignment. Upon receipt by the assigning Lender of such Note, the assigning Lender
shall return to the Company any prior Note held by it.



(c) Any
Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this
Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or
assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.



15.6.2
Participations. Any Lender may at any time sell to one or more Persons participating interests in its Loans, Commitments or other interests hereunder (any such Person, a Participant). In the event of a sale by a Lender of a
participating interest to a Participant, (a) such Lenders obligations hereunder shall remain unchanged for all purposes, (b) the Borrowers and the Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such
Lenders rights and obligations hereunder and (c) all amounts payable by the Borrowers shall be determined as if such Lender had not sold such participation and shall be paid directly to such Lender. No Participant shall have any direct or
indirect voting rights hereunder except with respect to any event described in Section 15.1 expressly requiring the unanimous vote of all Lenders or, as applicable, all affected Lenders. Each Lender agrees to incorporate the requirements of
the preceding sentence into each participation agreement which such Lender enters into with any Participant. The Borrowers agree that if amounts outstanding under this Agreement are due and payable (as a result of acceleration or otherwise), each
Participant shall be deemed to have the right of set-off in respect of its participating interest in amounts owing under this Agreement and with respect to any Letter of Credit to the same extent as if the amount



---

of its participating interest were owing directly to it as a Lender under this Agreement; provided that such right
of set-off shall be subject to the obligation of each Participant to share with the Lenders, and the Lenders agree to share with each Participant, as provided in Section 7.5. The Borrowers also agree that each Participant shall be entitled to
the benefits of Section 7.6 or Section 8 as if it were a Lender (provided that on the date of the participation no Participant shall be entitled to any greater compensation pursuant to Section 7.6 or Section 8 than
would have been paid to the participating Lender on such date if no participation had been sold and that each Participant complies with Section 7.6(d) as if it were an Assignee).



15.7 Register. The Agent shall maintain a copy of each Assignment Agreement delivered and accepted by it and register
(the Register) for the recordation of names and addresses of the Lenders and the Commitment of each Lender from time to time and whether such Lender is the original Lender or the Assignee. No assignment shall be effective unless
and until the Assignment Agreement is accepted and registered in the Register. All records of transfer of a Lenders interest in the Register shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, as to the ownership of the interests in the Loans. The
Agent shall not incur any liability of any kind with respect to any Lender with respect to the maintenance of the Register.



15.8GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT AND EACH NOTE SHALL BE A CONTRACT MADE UNDER AND GOVERNED BY THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF
ILLINOIS APPLICABLE TO CONTRACTS MADE AND TO BE PERFORMED ENTIRELY WITHIN SUCH STATE, WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES.



15.9 Confidentiality. The Agent and each Lender agree to use commercially reasonable efforts (equivalent to the efforts the Agent or such Lender
applies to maintain the confidentiality of its own confidential information) to maintain as confidential all information provided to them by any Related Party and designated as confidential, except that the Agent and each Lender may disclose such
information (a) to Persons employed or engaged by the Agent or such Lender in evaluating, approving, structuring or administering the Loans and the Commitments; (b) to any Assignee or Participant or potential Assignee or Participant that has agreed
to comply with the covenant contained in this Section 15.9 (and any such Assignee or Participant or potential Assignee or Participant may disclose such information to Persons employed or engaged by them as described in clause (a)
above); (c) as required or requested by any federal or state regulatory authority or examiner, or any insurance industry association, or as reasonably believed by the Agent or such Lender to be compelled by any court decree, subpoena or legal or
administrative order or process; (d) as, on the advice of the Agents or such Lenders counsel, is required by law; (e) in connection with the exercise of any right or remedy under the Loan Documents or in connection with any litigation to
which the Agent or such Lender is a party; (f) to any nationally recognized rating agency that requires access to information about a Lenders investment portfolio in connection with ratings issued with respect to such Lender; (g) to any
Affiliate of the Agent, the Issuing Lender or any other Lender who may provide Bank Products to the Related Parties; or (h) that ceases to be confidential through no fault of the Agent or any Lender. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrowers
hereby consent to the publication by the Agent or any Lender of a tombstone or similar advertising material relating to the



---

financing transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and the Agent reserves the right to provide to industry trade
organizations information necessary and customary for inclusion in league table measurements. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or any other Loan Document to the contrary, any information with respect to the tax treatment or
tax structure (in each case, within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.6011-4) of the transactions contemplated hereby shall not be confidential and the Agent and the Lenders and other parties hereto may disclose without
limitation of any kind any information that is provided to the Agent or the Lenders with respect to the tax treatment or tax structure (in each case, within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.6011-4);
provided, that to the extent any Loan Document contains information that relates to the tax treatment or tax structure and contains other information, this paragraph shall only apply to the information regarding the
tax treatment or tax structure.



15.10
Severability. Whenever possible each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable
law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement. All obligations of the Borrowers and rights of the Agent
and the Lenders expressed herein or in any other Loan Document shall be in addition to and not in limitation of those provided by applicable law.



15.11 Nature of Remedies. All Obligations of the Related Parties and rights of the Agent and the Lenders expressed herein or in any other Loan
Document shall be in addition to and not in limitation of those provided by applicable law. No failure to exercise and no delay in exercising, on the part of the Agent or any Lender, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder, shall operate as
a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege.



15.12 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with the other Loan
Documents, embodies the entire agreement and understanding among the parties hereto and supersedes all prior or contemporaneous agreements and understandings of such Persons, verbal or written, relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof
(except as relates to the fees described in Section 5.3) and any prior arrangements made with respect to the payment by the Company of (or any indemnification for) any fees, costs or expenses payable to or incurred (or to be incurred) by or
on behalf of the Agent or the Lenders.



15.13
Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by the different parties hereto on separate counterparts and each such counterpart shall be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts shall together
constitute but one and the same Agreement. Receipt of an executed signature page to this Agreement by facsimile or other electronic transmission shall constitute effective delivery thereof. Electronic records of executed Loan Documents maintained by
