                              AMENDED AND RESTATED
                                CREDIT AGREEMENT


U.S. Bank National Association, as Agent
Minneapolis, Minnesota
and
The Financial Institutions Identified Herein

Gentlemen:

      Northland Cranberries, Inc. ("the Company"), the undersigned financial
institutions (together with their respective successors and assigns,
collectively, the "Banks"), and the Other Lenders entered into a Credit
Agreement dated as of March 15, 1999 (said Credit Agreement, as amended from
time to time prior to the date hereof, the "Original Credit Agreement").
Simultaneous with the transactions contemplated hereby, the Banks have entered
into the Assignment, Assumption and Release Agreement and the Other Lenders have
entered into the Exiting Bank Agreement pursuant to which the Banks and the
Other Lenders have transferred to Sun Northland, LLC a percentage of their
Revolving Credit Loans (as defined in the Original Credit Agreement) and L/C
participations, interest accrued thereon and certain collateral securing such
Revolving Credit Loans and L/C participations. Sun Northland, LLC has entered
into an Assignment Agreement with the Company (the "Assignment Agreement")
pursuant to which Sun Northland, LLC has agreed to assign all rights received
under the Assignment, Assumption and Release Agreement and the Exiting Bank
Agreement to the Company and the same will thereupon be cancelled and discharged
and will no longer be obligations or liabilities of the Company under the
Original Credit Agreement. The Banks have retained Revolving Credit Loans in the
aggregate principal amount of $25,714,000 and certain collateral securing the
same. The Company and the Banks desire to amend and restate the Original Credit
Agreement to set forth the terms and conditions under which the Banks will
continue to advance the principal amount of $25,714,000 to the Company.
Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings
assigned thereto in Section 9, below.

                                   ARTICLE I

                                   THE CREDIT

      1.1.  Conversion to Term Loan. As of the date hereof, the outstanding
principal amount of the Revolving Credit Loans retained by the Banks under the
Original Credit Agreement is $25,714,000. On the Effective Date, this
$25,714,000 in Revolving Credit Loans shall be converted into a new term loan
(the "Term Loan") in the initial principal amount $25,714,000. Each Bank's pro
rata share of the Term Loan shall be the amount set forth below such Bank's name
on the signature pages hereof. The Term Loan shall be evidenced by promissory
notes to be executed and delivered by the Company to the Banks on the Effective
Date, the form of which is attached hereto and made a part hereof as Exhibit 1.1
(the "Term Note(s)"), shall bear interest as specified in Section 2.1 hereof and
shall be repayable as set forth in Article III hereof.


                                       2
<PAGE>


      1.2.  Release of Rights. Each Bank agrees that, as of the Effective Date
and receipt of the consideration specified in the Assignment, Assumption and
Release Agreement, it shall have no rights or claims against the Company, any of
its Subsidiaries or any of their shareholders, officers, employees, directors or
advisors (collectively, the "Releasees") with respect to the Original Credit
Agreement or any document executed in connection therewith or any transaction
relating thereto and hereby waives its rights to sue, make any claim or take any
action against any Releasee with respect to any right, claim or liability
occurring under the Original Credit Agreement or any transaction relating
thereto that arose or occurred prior to the Effective Date; provided, however,
that it is specifically acknowledged and agreed that nothing contained herein
shall be deemed to be a release of, or otherwise deemed to limit the Banks'
rights under, this Agreement and the Loan Documents executed in connection
herewith.

                                   ARTICLE II

                                    INTEREST

      2.1.  Interest.

            (a) Rate of Interest. Interest shall accrue on the principal amount
      of the Term Loan outstanding at the end of each day at a fluctuating rate
      per annum equal to one percent (1.0%) plus the Base Rate as in effect from
      time to time.

            (b) Default Rate of Interest. At the option of Agent or Required
      Banks, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of
      Default, the principal amount of the Term Loan shall bear interest at a
      rate per annum equal to two percent (2.0%) plus the interest rate
      otherwise applicable thereto (the "Default Rate").

            (c) Maximum Interest. In no event whatsoever shall the aggregate of
      all amounts deemed interest hereunder or under the Term Notes and charged
      or collected pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or pursuant to the
      Term Notes exceed the highest rate permissible under any law which a court
      of competent jurisdiction shall, in a final determination, deem applicable
      hereto. If any provisions of this Agreement or the Term Notes are in
      contravention of any such law, such provisions shall be deemed amended to
      conform thereto.

      2.2.  Computation. All interest on the indebtedness evidenced by the Term
Notes and all fees, charges and commissions due hereunder shall be computed on
the basis of a year of three hundred sixty (360) days for the actual number of
days elapsed.

      2.3.  Taxes and Increased Costs. With respect to this Agreement and the
Term Loan, if any Bank shall determine in good faith that any change after the
date hereof in any applicable law, treaty, regulation or guideline (including,
without limitation, Regulation D of the Board of Governors of the Federal
Reserve System) or any new law, treaty, regulation or guideline, or any
interpretation of any of the foregoing by any governmental authority charged
with the administration thereof or any central bank or other fiscal, monetary or
other authority having jurisdiction over such Bank or its lending branch or the
Term Loan contemplated by this Agreement (whether or not having the force of
law) shall:


                                       3
<PAGE>


            (a) impose, increase, or deem applicable any reserve, special
      deposit or similar requirement against assets held by, or deposits in or
      for the account of, or loans by, or any other acquisition of funds or
      disbursements by, such Bank which is not in any instance already accounted
      for in computing the interest rate applicable to any such Term Note;

            (b) subject such Bank or any Term Note to any tax (including,
      without limitation, any United States of America interest equalization tax
      or similar tax however named applicable to the acquisition or holding of
      debt obligations and any interest or penalties with respect thereto),
      duty, charge, stamp tax, fee, deduction or withholding in respect of this
      Agreement or any Term Note, except such taxes as may be measured by the
      overall net income or gross receipts of such Bank or its lending branches
      and imposed by the jurisdiction, or any political subdivision or taxing
      authority thereof, in which such Bank's principal executive office or its
      lending branch is located;

            (c) change the basis of taxation of payments of principal or
      interest due from the Company to such Bank hereunder under a Term Note
      (other than by a change in taxation of the overall net income or gross
      receipts of such Bank); or

            (d) impose on such Bank any penalty with respect to the foregoing or
      any other condition regarding this Agreement or any Term Note;

and such Bank shall determine that the result of any of the foregoing is to
increase the cost (whether by incurring a cost or adding to a cost) to such Bank
of creating or maintaining any Term Note or to reduce the amount of principal or
interest received or receivable by such Bank (without benefit of, or credit for,
any prorations, exemption, credits or other offsets available under any such
laws, treaties, regulations, guidelines or interpretations thereof), then the
Company shall pay on demand to such Bank from time to time as specified by such
Bank such additional amounts as such Bank shall reasonably determine are
sufficient to compensate and indemnify it for such increased cost or reduced
amount; provided, however, that (i) such Bank shall promptly notify the Company
of an event which might cause it to seek compensation, and the Company shall be
obligated to pay only such compensation which is incurred or which arises after
the date sixty (60) days prior to the date such notice is given, and (ii) the
Company shall have no obligation to pay any amount that would otherwise be
payable under this Section solely as a result of such Bank being in a regulatory
classification that is lower than such Bank's regulatory classification on the
date of this Agreement. If such Bank makes such a claim for compensation, it
shall provide to the Company a written explanation of the circumstances giving
rise to such claim and a certificate setting forth the computation of the
increased cost or reduced amount as a result of any event mentioned herein in
reasonable detail and such certificate shall be conclusive if reasonably
determined.

                                  ARTICLE III

                   FEES, PAYMENTS, REDUCTIONS AND APPLICATIONS

      3.1. Payments. The Term Loan shall be payable as follows:

            (a) Principal. The principal balance of the Term Loan shall be
      payable in installments as follows:

                (i)   On the one (1) year anniversary of the Effective Date, an
            installment in the amount of $1,700,000 shall be paid;

                (ii)  Commencing on December 1, 2002 and continuing on the
            first day of each month thereafter until and including October 1,
            2006, installments in an amount equal to the Monthly Installment
            Amount in effect on the payment date shall be paid; and

                (iii) The remaining outstanding principal balance, and all
            interest accrued thereon, shall be due and payable in full on
            November 1, 2006.

      Principal payable on account of the Term Loan shall be payable by the
      Company to Agent for the ratable benefit of the Banks.

            (b) Interest. Interest accrued on the Term Loan shall be payable by
      the Company to Agent for the ratable benefit of the Banks upon the first
      calendar day of each month (for the immediately preceding month), computed
      through the last calendar day of the preceding month.

The outstanding principal and interest accrued under the Term Note may become,
or may be declared, immediately due and payable upon an Event of Default as
provided in Article VIII hereof.

      3.2.  Voluntary Prepayments. Subject to the further provisions of this
Section 3.2, the Company shall have the privilege of prepaying the Term Notes in
whole or in part (but if in part then in an aggregate minimum amount of Fifty
Thousand Dollars ($50,000)) at any time upon notice to the Agent (such notices,
if received subsequent to 11:00 a.m. (Minneapolis time) on a given day, to be
treated as though received at the opening of business on the next Business Day),
by paying to the Agent (i) the principal amount to be prepaid, and (ii) if such
prepayment prepays the Term Notes in full, accrued interest thereon to the date
fixed for prepayment. Any such optional prepayment shall be applied to
installments of principal due under the Term Notes in the inverse order of their
installments.

      3.3.  Mandatory Prepayments.

            (a) Sale of Certain Collateral. If the Company at any time or times
      sells, transfers, conveys or otherwise disposes of any of the Liquidating
      Assets, the Company shall pay the Agent, for the ratable benefit of the
      Banks, within seven (7) days after such disposition and as a mandatory
      prepayment of the Term Loan, a sum equal to the



                                       5
<PAGE>


      proceeds received by the Company from such disposition net of fees and
      expenses actually incurred in connection therewith. Notwithstanding the
      foregoing, if prior to the date on which the Company disposes of
      Liquidating Assets associated with the Bridgeton, New Jersey facility, the
      Company has paid the outstanding property taxes, interest and penalties as
      contemplated pursuant to Section 7.18 hereof, the Company shall be
      entitled to reduce the proceeds payable to the Bank upon the sale of such
      Liquidating Assets by the amount of such property taxes so paid by the
      Company. The applicable prepayments under this Section 3.3(a) shall be
      applied to installments of principal due under the Term Notes in the
      inverse order of their installments.

            (b) Cliffstar Note. After the Company has received Adjusted
      Cliffstar Payments aggregating Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000), the
      Company shall thereafter, within one (1) Business Day after receipt by the
      Company of each Cliffstar Payment, pay the Agent for the ratable benefit
      of the Banks, as a mandatory prepayment of the Term Loan, a sum equal to
      the amount of the Adjusted Cliffstar Payment then received by the Company.
      The applicable prepayments shall be applied to installments of principal
      due under the Term Notes in the inverse order of their installments.

      3.4.  Agent Fee. On the Effective Date and on each annual anniversary
thereof during which this Agreement is in effect, the Company shall pay to Agent
an Agent fee in an amount equal to one-quarter percentage (.25%) of the
aggregate principal amount of the Term Notes outstanding as of such payment
date.

      3.5.  Place and Application. All payments of principal, interest, fees and
other amounts due hereunder shall be made to the Agent at its office at 601
Second Avenue South, Minneapolis, Minnesota (or at such other place within the
continental United States of America as the Agent may specify) in immediately
available and freely transferable funds at the place of payment. All such
payments shall be made without setoff or counterclaim and without reduction for,
and free from, any and all present or future taxes, levies, imposts, duties,
fees, charges, deductions, withholdings, restrictions or conditions of any
nature imposed by any government or political subdivision or taxing authority
thereof. Payments received by the Agent after 11:00 a.m. (Minneapolis time)
shall be deemed received as of the opening of business on the next Business Day.

      3.6. Capital Adequacy. If any Bank shall determine that the adoption
after the date hereof of any applicable law, rule or regulation regarding
capital adequacy, or any change in any existing law, rule or regulation, 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 compliance by such Bank (or its lending office) 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 Bank's capital as a
consequence of its obligations hereunder or credit extended by it hereunder to a
level below that which such Bank could have achieved but for such adoption,
change or compliance (taking into consideration such Bank's policies with
respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by such Bank to be material,
then from time to time as specified by such Bank the Company shall pay such
additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Bank for such reduction;
provided, however, that (i) such Bank shall promptly



                                       6
<PAGE>


notify the Company of an event which might cause it to seek compensation, and
the Company shall be obligated to pay only such compensation which is incurred
or which arises after the date sixty (60) days prior to the date such notice is
given, and (ii) the Company shall have no obligation to pay any amount that
would otherwise be payable under this Section solely as a result of such Bank
being in a regulatory classification that is lower than such Bank's regulatory
classification on the date of this Agreement. A certificate of such Bank
claiming compensation under this Section 3.5 and setting forth the additional
amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder in reasonable detail shall be
conclusive if reasonably determined. In determining such amount, such Bank may
use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods.

                                   ARTICLE IV

                                 THE COLLATERAL

      4.1.  Collateral. The Term Notes and the other obligations of the Company

and Restated Security Agreement of even date herewith by and between the Company
and the Agent for itself and for the benefit of the Banks, as the same may be
further amended or restated from time to time; and (iii) a valid and perfected
priority lien (subject only to a prior lien granted to Foothill Capital under
the Foothill Agreement which shall be limited to the extent set forth in the

Amended and Restated Collateral Pledge Agreement by the Company in favor of
Agent for itself and for the benefit of the Banks and the Amended and Restated
Security Agreement described above, as the same may be further amended or
restated from time to time.

      4.2.  Further Assurances. The Company agrees that it will from time to
time at the request of the Agent or the Banks execute and deliver such documents
and do such acts and things as the Agent or the Banks may reasonably request in

                                   ARTICLE V

                         REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

Assignment, Assumption and Release Agreement, the Company represents and
warrants to the Agent and the Banks on the Effective Date as follows:



                                       7
<PAGE>


      5.1.  Organization; Authority; Non-Contravention. Each of the Company and
its Subsidiaries is a corporation duly organized and validly existing under the
laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation, has full and adequate power to
carry on its business as now conducted, is duly licensed or qualified in all
jurisdictions wherein the nature of its activities requires such licensing or
qualifying and where the failure to be so licensed or qualified would have a
material adverse effect on the Properties, business or operations of the Company
and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole. The Company has full right and authority
to enter into the Loan Documents, to encumber its assets as collateral security
therefor, and to perform each and all of the matters and things herein and
therein provided for and to make the borrowing herein provided for and to issue
the Term Notes in evidence thereof. This Agreement does not, nor does the
performance or observance by the Company of any of the matters or things
provided for in the Loan Documents, contravene any provision of law or any
charter or by-law provision or any indenture or material agreement of or
affecting the Company or any of its Properties.

      5.2.  Subsidiaries. The Company has no Subsidiaries except Wildhawk, Inc.,

August 31, 2000, of the Company and unaudited consolidated financial statements
(including a balance sheet and profit and loss statement) and its Subsidiaries
as of, and for the period ending August 31, 2001. Such consolidated financial
statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles on a basis consistent, except as otherwise noted therein and except
that the interim consolidated financial statements are subject to audit and
year-end adjustments and for the absence of footnotes, with that of the previous
fiscal year or period and fairly reflect the financial position of the Company
as of the dates thereof, and the results of their operations for the periods
covered thereby. The Company has no significant contingent liabilities other
than as disclosed to the Agent or as indicated on said consolidated financial
statements and since said date of August 31, 2001 and, except as disclosed on
Schedule 5.3, there has been no Material Adverse Change of the Company or its
Subsidiaries taken as a whole.

      5.4.  Litigation; Taxes; Consents. Except as disclosed on Schedule 5.4,
there is no litigation or governmental proceeding pending, nor to the knowledge
of the Company, threatened against the Company or any Subsidiary which if
adversely determined would result in any material adverse change in the
Properties, business or operations of the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as
a whole. All United States of America federal income tax returns for the Company
and its Subsidiaries required to be filed have been filed on a timely basis
(after giving effect to any extensions), and all amounts required to be paid as
shown by said returns have been paid. There are no pending or threatened
objections to or controversies in respect of the United States of America
federal income tax returns of the Company for any fiscal year which, if
adversely determined, would have a material adverse effect on the Company's
condition, financial or otherwise. No authorization, consent, license, exemption
or filing or registration with any court or governmental department, agency or
instrumentality, is or will be necessary to



                                       8
<PAGE>

Documents to which they are a party, except for filings required to perfect the
Agent's liens in the Collateral.

      5.5.  Regulation U. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is engaged in
the business of extending credit for the purpose of purchasing or carrying
"margin stock" (within the meaning of Regulation U of the Board of Governors of
the Federal Reserve System) and no part of the proceeds of any loan hereunder
will be used to purchase or carry any margin stock or to extend credit to others
for such a purpose.

      5.6.  No Default. No Event of Default is existing under this Agreement.

      5.7.  ERISA. Each of the Company and its Subsidiaries is in compliance in
all material respects with ERISA to the extent applicable to it and has received

Foothill Agreement, there are no security interests, liens or encumbrances on
any of the Collateral except such as are permitted by Section 7.11 of this
Agreement.

      5.9.  Accurate Information. No information, exhibit or report furnished by
the Company or any Subsidiary to the Agent or any Bank in connection with the
negotiation of the Loan Documents contained any material misstatement of fact or
omitted to state a material fact or any fact necessary to make the statements
contained therein not misleading in light of the circumstances in which made.
The financial projections furnished by the Company to the Agent and the Banks
contain to the Company's knowledge and belief, reasonable projections as of the
date thereof of future results of consolidated operations and financial position
of the Company after giving effect to the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement, the Sun Northland Purchase Agreement, the Assignment, Assumption and
Release Agreement, the Exiting Bank Agreement and the Foothill Agreement.

      5.10. Enforceability. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents are
legal, valid and binding agreements of the Company, enforceable against it in
accordance with their terms, except as may be limited by (a) bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization, fraudulent transfer, moratorium or other similar
laws or judicial decisions for the relief of debtors or the limitation of
creditors' rights generally; and (b) any equitable principles relating to or
limiting the rights of creditors generally.

      5.11. No Default Under Other Agreements. After giving effect to the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the Assignment, Assumption and
Release Agreement, the Exiting Bank Agreement and the Foothill Agreement, and
except with respect to payment defaults under the Nantucket and Cranberry Hill
leases, neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is in default with respect to any
note, indenture, loan agreement, mortgage, lease, deed, or other agreement to
which it is a party or by which it or its Property is bound, which default would
reasonably be expected to materially and adversely affect the Collateral, the
repayment of the indebtedness, obligations and liabilities under the Loan
Documents, the Agent's and the Banks'


                                       9
<PAGE>


rights under the Loan Documents or the Property, business, operations or
condition (financial or otherwise) of the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as
a whole.

      5.12. Status Under Certain Laws. Neither the Company nor any of its
Subsidiaries is an "investment company" or a person directly or indirectly
controlled by or acting on behalf of an "investment company" within the meaning
of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, or a "holding company," or a
"subsidiary company" of a "holding company," or an "affiliate" of a "holding
company" or a "subsidiary company" of a "holding company," within the meaning of
the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935, as amended.

      5.13. Compliance with Laws. Except as set forth in Schedule 5.13 with
respect to certain outstanding environmental matters, the Company and its
Subsidiaries each are in compliance with the requirements of all federal, state
and local laws, rules and regulations applicable to or pertaining to their
Properties or business operations (including, without limitation, the
Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970, the Americans with Disabilities Act
of 1990, and laws and regulations establishing quality criteria and standards
for air, water, land and toxic or hazardous wastes and substances),
non-compliance with which would reasonably be expected to have a material
adverse effect on the financial condition, Properties, business or operations of
the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole. Except as set forth in
Schedule 5.13 with respect to certain outstanding environmental matters, neither
the Company nor any Subsidiary has received written notice to the effect that
its operations are not in compliance with any of the requirements of applicable
federal, state or local environmental, health and safety statutes and
regulations or, to the Company's knowledge, are the subject of any governmental
investigation evaluating whether any remedial action is needed to respond to a
release of any toxic or hazardous waste or substance into the environment, which
noncompliance or remedial action would have a material adverse effect on the
financial condition, Properties, business or operations of the Company and its
Subsidiaries taken as a whole.

                                   ARTICLE X

                                 MISCELLANEOUS.

      10.1. Holidays. If any principal of any of the Term Notes shall fall due
on a Saturday, Sunday or on another day which is a legal holiday for lenders in
the State of Minnesota, interest at the rates such Term Notes bear for the
period prior to maturity shall continue to accrue on such principal from the
stated due date thereof to and including the next succeeding Business Day on
which the same is payable.

      10.2. No Waiver, Cumulative Remedies. No delay or failure on the part of
the Agent or the Banks in the exercise of any power or right shall operate as a
waiver thereof, nor as an acquiescence in any Default or Event of Default nor
preclude any other or further exercise thereof, or the exercise of any other
power or right, and the rights and remedies hereunder of the Agent and the Banks
are cumulative to, and not exclusive of, any rights or remedies which any of
them would otherwise have.

      10.3. Waivers, Modifications and Amendments. The Required Banks and the
Company may, from time to time, enter into written amendments, supplements or
modifications hereto for the purpose of adding provisions to any Loan Document
or for the purpose of changing in any


                                       28
<PAGE>


manner the rights of the Banks or of the Company thereunder, and the Required
Banks may execute and deliver to the Company a written instrument waiving, on
such terms and conditions as the Required Banks may specify in such instrument,
any of the requirements of any Loan Document or any Default or Event of Default
and its consequences; provided, however, that no amendment, modification,
termination, waiver or consent shall do any of the following unless the same
shall be in writing and signed by all Banks: (a) reduce the amount of any
payment of principal of or interest on any loan payable to the Banks hereunder;
(b) postpone any date fixed for any payment of principal of or interest on any
outstanding loan payable to the Banks hereunder; (c) change the definition of
"Required Banks;" (d) amend this Section 10.3 or any other provision of this
Agreement requiring the consent or other action of the Required Banks or all of
the Banks; (e) release any guaranty; (f) release all or substantially all of the
Collateral except the Liquidating Assets; or (g) consent to the assignment or
transfer by the Company of any of its rights and obligations under this
Agreement (provided that none of the foregoing shall be deemed to prohibit
Required Banks, without the consent of all Banks, from agreeing to forbear from
pursuing rights and remedies against the Company in the event of a default
hereunder). In the case of any waiver, the Company and the Banks shall be
restored to their former position and rights under the Loan Documents, and any
Default or Event of Default waived shall be deemed to be cured and not
continuing. However, no waiver of a Default or Event of Default shall extend to
any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default, or impair any right
consequent thereon. No amendment, supplement, modification, or waiver shall be
effective except if in writing and duly executed by the Required Banks or each
Bank, as applicable, the Agent and the Company.

      10.4. Costs and Expenses. The Company agrees to pay on demand all
reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Agent and the Banks in
connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery, recording
and/or filing and/or release of this Agreement, the Term Notes and the
Collateral Documents and the other instruments and documents to be delivered
hereunder or thereunder or in connection with the transactions contemplated
hereby or thereby or in connection with any consents hereunder or thereunder or
waivers or amendments hereto or thereto, (excluding fees and expenses incurred
in connection with any inspection conducted under Section 7.5 hereof unless such
inspection is performed during an Event of Default), including the fees and
expenses of counsel for the Agent with respect to all of the foregoing, and all
recording, filing, title insurance or other fees, costs and taxes incident to
perfecting a lien upon the collateral security for the Term Notes, and all
reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees), incurred
by the Agent, any security trustee for the Banks or any of the Banks in
connection with a Default or the enforcement of this Agreement, the Term Notes
or the Collateral Documents and the other instruments and documents to be
delivered hereunder or thereunder. The Company agrees to indemnify and save the
Agent and the Banks and any security trustee for the Banks harmless from any and
all liabilities, losses, costs and expenses incurred by the Banks in connection
with any action, suit or proceeding brought against the Banks or security
trustee by any person which arises out of the transactions contemplated or
financed hereby or by the Term Notes or Collateral Documents or out of any
action or inaction by any of the Banks or any security trustee hereunder or
thereunder, except for such thereof as is caused by the gross negligence or
willful misconduct of the party indemnified. All amounts chargeable to the
Company under this Section 10.4 shall be obligations secured by the Collateral.
The provisions of this Section 10.4 hereof shall survive payment of the Notes.


                                       29

Agreement shall not be construed more favorably in favor of one than the other

Agreement.

ineffective to the extent of such unenforceability without invalidating the
remaining provisions hereof or affecting the validity or enforceability of such

Documents constitutes the entire understanding of the parties with respect to
the



                                       30
<PAGE>


subject matter hereof and any prior agreements, whether written or oral, with
respect thereto are superseded hereby except for prior understandings related to
fees payable to the Banks. This Agreement, the Loan Documents and the rights and
obligations of the parties thereto shall be governed by, and construed and
interpreted in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Wisconsin.
Venue for the settlement of disputes under this Agreement shall be in the United
States District Court for the Eastern District of Wisconsin or the Circuit Court

SERVICE OF PROCESS MADE BY MAIL OR BY MESSENGER DIRECTED TO IT AT THE ADDRESS
SPECIFIED IN SECTION 10.8 HEREOF.

      10.13. Rights of Banks.

            (a) The Company authorizes the Agent to disclose to any Bank any
      financial or other information pertaining to the Company.

            (b) If any Bank (each, a "Replaceable Bank") requests compensation
      pursuant to Sections 2.3 or 3.6 at a rate materially in excess of that
      requested by any other Bank, the Company may, with the consent of the
      Agent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, propose that
      another lender (a "Replacement Bank") which lender may be an existing
      Bank, be substituted for and replace the Replaceable Bank for purposes of
      this Agreement. In the event a Replacement Bank is so substituted for the
      Replaceable Bank, then such substitution shall take place on a date
      acceptable to the Company, the Replaceable Bank and the Replacement Bank,
      as the case may be, but in no event later than the latest maturity date of
      any financial accommodations then outstanding hereunder, and such
      substitution shall take place through the execution of such instruments
      and documents as are required under Section 10.14(a) and (b) hereof. All
      expenses of the Bank incurred in connection with the foregoing shall be
      paid by the Company.

            (c) In the event the Bank or any Participant shall receive and
      retain any payment, whether by set-off or application of deposit balances
      or otherwise ("Set-off"), on or in respect of any loan or other obligation
      outstanding under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents in excess of
      its ratable share of payments on the Term Loan and other obligations then
      outstanding, then such Bank shall purchase for cash at face value, but
      without recourse, ratably from each of the other Banks such amount of such
      loan and other obligations held by each such other party (or interest
      therein) as shall be necessary to cause such Bank to share such excess
      payment ratably with all the other Banks; provided, however, that if any
      such purchase is made by any Bank, and if such excess payment or part
      thereof is thereafter recovered from such purchasing party, the related
      purchases from the other Banks shall be rescinded ratably and the purchase
      price restored as to the portion of such excess payment so recovered, but
      without interest.

      10.14. Addition of Banks. Any Bank, at any time upon at least two (2)
Business Days prior written notice to the Agent and the Company, may assign all
or a portion (provided such portion is not less than One Million Dollars
($1,000,000) in the aggregate) of such Bank's Notes


                                       31
<PAGE>


and loans to a domestic or foreign bank (having a branch office in the United
States of America), an insurance company or other financial institution (an
"Applicant") on any date (the "Adjustment Date") selected by such Bank, but only
so long as the Agent shall have provided its prior written approval of such
proposed Applicant, which prior written approval will not be unreasonably
withheld. Upon receipt of such approval and to confirm the status of each
additional Bank as a party to this Agreement and to evidence the assignment in
accordance herewith:

            (a) The Agent, the Company, the assigning bank and such Applicant
      shall, on or before the Adjustment Date, execute and deliver to the Agent
      an Assignment Certificate in substantially the form of Exhibit 10.14 (an
      "Assignment Certificate");

            (b) The assigning bank or the Applicant shall pay the Agent a
      processing fee of Three Thousand Five Hundred Dollars ($3,500);

            (c) The Company will execute and deliver to the Agent, for delivery
      by the Agent in accordance with the terms of the Assignment Certificate,
      (i) a new Term Note payable to the order of the Applicant in amounts
      corresponding to the Percentage of the Term Note acquired by such
      Applicant, and (ii) a new Term Note payable to the order of the assigning
      Bank in an amount corresponding to the retained Percentage of the Term
      Loan. Such new Term Notes shall be in aggregate principal amounts equal to
      the aggregate principal amounts of the Term Note to be replaced, shall be
      dated the effective date of such assignment and shall otherwise be in the
      form of the Term Note to be replaced thereby. Such new Term Notes shall be
      issued in substitution for, but not in satisfaction or payment of, the
      Term Notes being replaced thereby and such new Term Note shall be treated
      as a Term Note for purposes of this Agreement.

      Upon the execution and delivery of such Assignment Certificate and such
new Term Notes and the payment of the processing fee: (a) this Agreement shall
be deemed to be amended to the extent, and only to the extent, necessary to
reflect the addition of such additional Bank and the resulting adjustment of the
Percentages arising therefrom; (b) the assigning Bank shall be relieved of all
obligations hereunder to the extent of a reduction of the assigning Bank's
Percentage; and (c) the additional Bank shall become a party hereto and shall be
entitled to all rights, benefits and privileges accorded to a Bank herein and in
each other Loan Document or other document or instrument executed pursuant
hereto and subject to all obligations of a Bank hereunder, including, without
limitation, the right to approve or disapprove actions which, in accordance with
the terms hereof, require the approval of the Required Banks or all Banks.
Promptly after the execution of any Assignment Certificate, a copy thereof shall
be delivered by the Agent to each Bank and to the Company. In order to
facilitate the addition of additional Banks hereto, the Company and the Banks
shall cooperate fully with the Agent in connection therewith and shall provide
all reasonable assistance requested by the Agent relating thereto, including,
without limitation, the furnishing of such written materials and financial
information regarding the Company as the Agent may reasonably request, the
execution of such documents as the Agent may reasonably request with respect
thereto, and the participation by officers of the Company, and the Banks in a
meeting or teleconference call with any Applicant upon the request of the Agent.

      10.15. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. THE COMPANY AND THE BANKS HEREBY IRREVOCABLY
WAIVE ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM
ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, ANY LOAN DOCUMENT OR ANY
INSTRUMENT OR DOCUMENT DELIVERED HEREUNDER.

      10.16. Confidentiality. Each of the Agent and the Banks agrees to keep
confidential all non-public information provided to it by the Company or any
Subsidiary pursuant to this Agreement that is designated by the Company or any
Subsidiary as confidential; provided; however, that nothing contained herein
shall prevent the Agent or any Bank from disclosing any such information (a) to
the Agent, any other Bank or any affiliate of any Bank which agrees to comply
with the provisions of this Section, (b) to any Applicant or prospective
Applicant which agrees to comply with the provisions of this Section, (c) any of
its employees, directors, agents, attorneys, accountants and other professional
advisors, (d) upon request or demand of any governmental authority having
jurisdiction over it, (e) in response to any order of any court or other
governmental authority or as may otherwise be required pursuant to any law, rule
or regulation, (f) if requested or required to do so in connection with any
litigation or similar proceeding, (g) which has been publicly disclosed other
than in breach of this Section, or (h) in connection with the exercise of any
remedy hereunder or under any other Loan Document.

                                   ARTICLE XI

                                   THE AGENT.

      11.1. Appointment and Authorization. Each Bank hereby irrevocably appoints
U.S. Bank as Agent for the Banks under this Agreement and hereby authorizes the
Agent to take such action as Agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers
under this Agreement as are delegated to the Agent by the terms hereof, together
with such powers as are reasonably incident thereto. The relationship between
the Agent and the Banks is and shall be that of Agent and principal only, and
nothing contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be
construed to constitute the Agent as a trustee or fiduciary for any Bank or the
Company.

      11.2. Agent and Affiliates. In its capacity as a Bank hereunder, the Agent
shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Bank and
may exercise or refrain from exercising the same as though it were not an Agent,
and the agent and its affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, and
generally engage in any kind of business with the Company or any Subsidiary or
Affiliate of the Company as if it were not the Agent hereunder. The terms Bank
and Banks as used in the Loan Documents, unless the context otherwise clearly
requires, include the Agent in its individual capacity as a Bank.

      11.3. Action by Agent. Except for action expressly required of the Agent
hereunder, the Agent shall in all cases be fully justified in failing or
refusing to act hereunder unless the Agent shall be indemnified to its
reasonable satisfaction by the Banks against any and all liability and expense
which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such
action. In all cases in which this Agreement does not require the Agent to take
certain actions, the Agent shall be fully justified in using its discretion in
failing to take or in taking any action hereunder. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, the Agent shall not be required to



                                       33
<PAGE>


take any action with respect to any Event of Default, except as expressly
provided in Section 8.2. The Agent shall be acting as an independent contractor
hereunder and nothing herein shall be deemed to impose on the Agent any
fiduciary obligations to the Banks or the Company.

      11.4. Consultation with Experts. The Agent may consult with legal counsel,
independent public accountants and other experts selected by it and shall not be
liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in
accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts.

      11.5. Liability of Agent. Neither the Agent nor any of its directors,
officers, agents or employees shall be liable for any action taken or not taken
by it in connection herewith (i) with the consent or at the request of the
Required Banks or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful
misconduct. Neither the Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents or
employees shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into
or verify (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in connection with
this Agreement or any borrowing hereunder; (ii) the performance or observance of
any of the covenants or agreements of the Borrowers; (iii) the satisfaction of
any condition specified in Section 6, except receipt of items required to be
delivered to the Agent; or (iv) the validity, effectiveness or genuineness of
this Agreement, the Term Notes or any other instrument or writing furnished in
connection herewith. The Agent shall not incur any liability by acting in
reliance upon any notice, consent, certificate, request or statement (whether
written or oral) or other document believed by it to be genuine or to be signed
or sent by the proper party or parties and, in the case of legal matters, in
relying on the advice of counsel (including counsel for the Company). The Agent
may treat the Banks that are named herein as the holders of the Term Notes and
the indebtedness contemplated herein unless and until the Agent receives notice
of the assignment of the Term Note and the indebtedness held by a Bank hereunder
pursuant to an assignment contemplated by Section 10.14 hereof.

      11.6. Indemnification. Each Bank shall, ratably in accordance with its
Percentage, indemnify the Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by the Company)
against any cost, expenses (including reasonable counsels' fees and
disbursements) , claims, demands, actions, losses, obligations, damages,
penalties, judgments, suits or liability (except such as result from the Agent's
gross negligence or willful misconduct) that the Agent may suffer or incur in
connection with this Agreement or any action taken or omitted by the Agent
hereunder.

      11.7. Credit Decision. Each Bank acknowledges that it has, independently
and without reliance upon the Agent or any other Bank, and based on such
documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit
analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Bank also acknowledges
that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Agent or any other
Bank, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate
at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking
any action under this Agreement.

      11.8. Resignation or Removal of Agent and Successor Agent. Subject to the
appointment and acceptance of a successor Agent as provided below, the Agent may
resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Banks and the Company
at any time. Upon any such resignation of the Agent, the Required Banks shall
have the right to appoint, with the


                                       34
<PAGE>


consent of the Company, a successor Agent. If no successor Agent shall have been
so appointed by the Required Banks, and shall have accepted such appointment,
within thirty (30) days after, as the case may be, the retiring Agent's giving
of notice of resignation, then the retiring Agent may, on behalf of the Banks,
appoint a successor Agent, which shall be a commercial bank organized under the
laws of the United States of America or of any state thereof that has a combined
capital and surplus of at least Two Hundred Million Dollars ($200,000,000). Upon
the acceptance of its appointment as Agent hereunder by a successor Agent, such
successor Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights
and duties of the retiring Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged
from its duties and obligations hereunder. After any retiring Agent's
resignation hereunder as Agent, the provisions of this Section 11 shall inure to
its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was
Agent.
