Section 1.Advances and Letters of Credit.
(a)Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, including without limitation the satisfaction of 

the conditions described in Article III, Lender agrees to establish a Revolving Loan Facility pursuant to which Lender may, in its sole discretion upon request of Borrower,  make and incur Credit Accommodations in support of Export Orders, provided the Credit Accommodation Amount at any time shall not exceed the lesser of (i) the Maximum Amount, and (ii) the Export-Related Borrowing Base.  All Letters of Credit issued shall be in Dollars and all Disbursements shall be made in Dollars.
(b)Lender may agree to make advances directly to Borrower or for Borrower's account during the Credit Period, it being expressly agreed that Lender has no commitment to do so.  Borrower shall request each advance under the Loan by delivering to Lender a written request therefore, an Export-Related Borrowing Base Certificate, a copy of the Export Order(s) against which Borrower is requesting an advance, and such other information and documentation as Lender may require, in accordance with Section 6.10.  Upon receipt of the above described information and documents by Lender, Lender shall make such advance within five (5) Business Days following Lender's determination that all conditions to the making of such advance have been satisfied.  Each advance shall be conclusively deemed to have been made at the request of and for the benefit of Borrower (a) when credited to any deposit account of Borrower maintained with Lender, or (b) when advanced in accordance with the instructions of an authorized Person.  Lender, at its option, may set a cutoff time, after which all requests for advances under the Loan will be treated as having been requested on the next succeeding Business Day.
(c)Lender may agree to issue Letters of Credit on behalf of Borrower or for Borrower's account from time to time during the Credit Period, it being expressly agreed that Lender has no commitment to do so.  Standby Letters of Credit may be issued for Borrower's account for use as a performance bond, which Standby Letters of Credit can be drawn upon by Buyers only if Borrower fails to perform its obligations with respect to the relevant Export Order.  Each Disbursement to fund a drawing under a Standby Letter of Credit shall conclusively be deemed to have been made when advanced in accordance with a draw request or instructions of an authorized Person.  Each Letter of Credit will be in form and substance satisfactory to Lender and if approved for issuance by Lender in its sole discretion, will be issued by Lender as soon as practicable following (a) Lender's receipt of a completed Letter of Credit Application, an Export-Related Borrowing Base Certificate, a copy of the Export Order with respect to which Borrower is requesting a Letter of Credit, and such other information and documentation as Lender may require, in accordance with Section 6.10; and (b) Lender's determination that all conditions to issuing such Letter of Credit have been satisfied, including but not limited to the Borrower's obligation to provide and maintain adequate collateral in the amount equivalent to twenty-five percent (25%) of the undrawn amount of each Letter of Credit issued hereunder.  In no event shall (i) the expiry date of any Letter of Credit be later than twelve (12) months from the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit.  Lender shall not be requested to issue during the last sixty (60) days of the Credit Period any Letter of Credit which will expire after the Stated Final Disbursement Date unless Lender agrees in writing to a renewal of the Loan, or Ex-Im Bank's prior written approval of the issuance of such Letter of Credit is obtained.
(d)The terms and conditions of each Letter of Credit Application delivered by Borrower and accepted by Lender hereunder, including without limitation terms related to reimbursement of amounts drawn and the payment of fees and interest, are incorporated herein by this reference; provided, however, that (a) no provisions subjecting Lender and Borrower to arbitration or other dispute resolution provisions contained in any Letter of Credit Application shall be incorporated into this Agreement or applicable to Letters of Credit issued pursuant to this Agreement, and (b) to the extent that there is any conflict between the terms and conditions of any Letter of Credit Application and this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall prevail, except for (i) definitions contained in any Letter of Credit Application, (ii) if there is any provision contained in any Letter of Credit Application which subjects the Letter of Credit issued pursuant thereto to the UCP, the UCP shall prevail and (iii) if there is any provision contained in any Letter of Credit Application for a Standby Letter of Credit which subjects the Standby Letter of Credit issued pursuant thereto to the ISP, the ISP shall prevail.
(e)The outstanding principal balance of Disbursements hereunder shall be evidenced by the Note 

and shall be repaid as set forth in Section 2.3 below.  
(f)    Interest on the outstanding principal balance of the Note shall accrue and be payable as set forth in Section 2.5 below.
(g)    If the Lender determines that the introduction of any Requirement of Law, or any change in any Requirement of Law, or in the interpretation or administration of any Requirement of Law, has made it unlawful, or that any central bank or other Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for the Lender to make the Disbursements and have interest accruing thereon on the basis of the LIBOR Rate, then, on notice thereof by the Lender to the Borrower, the Disbursements shall thereafter accrue interest at the CB Floating Rate until the Bank notifies the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. If the Bank determines that for any reason adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the LIBOR Rate for any LIBOR Period, or that the LIBOR Rate does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Bank of making or maintaining the Disbursements, (i) the Bank will promptly so notify the Borrower, and (ii) thereafter, the obligation of the Bank to make or maintain the Disbursements with interest accruing thereon on the basis of the LIBOR Rate shall be suspended until the Lender revokes such notice in writing.
Section 2.Credit Accommodations.
(a)The amount of the Credit Accommodations available to be made or incurred hereunder at any particular time from time to time shall be equal to the difference between (a) the lesser at such time of (i) the Maximum Amount, or (ii) the Export-Related Borrowing Base; and (b) the Credit Accommodation Amount at such time.  The Export-Related Borrowing Base shall be determined in accordance with this Agreement, the Borrower Agreement, the Waiver Letter and the Export-Related Borrowing Base Certificate. Any Eligible Export-Related Account Receivable included in the Export-Related Borrowing Base which subsequently fails to satisfy any of the applicable eligibility criteria shall immediately cease to be included in the Export-Related Borrowing Base.

(i)Lender shall not undertake any new Credit Accommodation under this Agreement:
(A)after the Stated Final Disbursement Date;

(C)if such Credit Accommodation has been or will be used in a manner prohibited by the Borrower Agreement; or
(D)if no outstanding Export Order(s) exist with respect to Borrower.
(ii)No Warranty Letters of Credit shall be issued by Lender under this Agreement without the prior written approval of Lender and Ex-Im Bank; and if such approval is obtained, any Warranty Letter of Credit so approved shall be issued only upon the satisfaction of all conditions to such issuance, including reserves from the Export-Related Borrowing Base, established by Lender and Ex-Im Bank.  
Section 3.Payments and Prepayment of Borrower's Obligations
(a)Borrower's Obligations shall be paid (and may be prepaid) in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, the Borrower Agreement and the Note.  Unless sooner due and payable or paid pursuant to the other provisions of this Agreement, the Borrower Agreement and the Note, Borrower shall pay to Lender in full on the Maturity Date all outstanding Borrower's Obligations, including, without limitation, the aggregate principal amount of all Disbursements then outstanding and all accrued but unpaid interest, together with all other applicable fees, costs and charges, if any, not yet paid.  Disbursements made to Borrower or for Borrower's account and repaid by Borrower during the Credit Period may, at the option of Lender and at Borrower's request, be available on a continuous basis until the Stated Final Disbursement Date to fund Credit Accommodations made or incurred under the Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Borrower Agreement.

(b)In accordance with the Borrower Agreement, upon demand by Lender, Borrower shall provide additional Collateral or make additional payment(s) to Lender to ensure that at all times (i) the Export-Related Borrowing Base equals or exceeds the Disbursements; and (ii) the outstanding principal balance of the Credit Accommodations that is supported by Eligible Export-Related Inventory does not exceed sixty percent (60%) of the sum of (y) the outstanding principal balance of the Disbursement(s), and (z) the undrawn face amount of all outstanding Commercial Letters of Credit hereunder.
(c)All payments made by or received from Borrower or for Borrower's account in respect of Borrower's Obligations (including prepayments by Borrower and Proceeds received by Lender) shall be applied by Lender first to the payment of accrued and unpaid interest, second to the payment of the principal amount of Borrower's Obligations, and third to any unpaid costs, fees and expenses due under this Agreement and the other Financing Documents.
(d)    If (i) any payment or prepayment of principal of any LIBOR Advance is made other than on the last day of the LIBOR Period for such LIBOR Advance or (ii) if Borrower fails to make a principal or interest payment with respect to any LIBOR Advance on the date such payment is due and payable, Borrower shall on demand pay to Lender any amounts required to compensate Lender for any additional losses, out-of-pocket costs or expenses which it may reasonably incur as a result of such payment or nonpayment, including any loss, cost or expense actually incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by Lender to fund or maintain such LIBOR Advance.  A certificate of Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section shall be delivered to Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
Section 4.Reliance by Lender on Communications and Authorizations from Borrower.  In making or incurring any Credit Accommodation pursuant to this Agreement and the other Financing Documents, Lender shall be authorized to rely on any Export-Related Borrowing Base Certificate, Letter of Credit Application, or other information, documentation, notice or communication which appears to have been executed and delivered by any of the authorized representatives of Borrower who are designated in the general certificate delivered by Borrower to Lender.  In the event that the Person(s) authorized to execute and deliver such documents or to take action hereunder on behalf of Borrower become(s) unavailable or unable to do so, Borrower promptly shall appoint one or more successor representative(s) and shall furnish Lender with a certificate satisfactory to Lender which shall contain a copy of the resolutions or other actions taken by Borrower to authorize such appointment(s) and the specimen signature of each Person so appointed to act on behalf of Borrower pursuant to this Agreement.  
Section 5. Interest.
(a)    The outstanding principal balance of the Note shall bear interest at the option of the Borrower at either the CB Floating Rate or the LIBOR Rate, in each case as specified by Borrower to Bank in writing in form acceptable to Lender pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section 2.5; provided that (A) if prior to the commencement of any LIBOR Period Lender determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the LIBOR Rate; or the Lender determines that the LIBOR Rate will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to Lender of making or maintaining any LIBOR Advance, then the entire outstanding principal balance of the Note shall accrue interest at the CB Floating Rate; and (B) the outstanding principal amount of the Note not paid when due will bear interest from its due date until paid at the Default Rate.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if at any time the rate determined to be applicable to the outstanding principal balance of the Note pursuant to the foregoing sentence (the “Contract Rate”) exceeds the Highest Lawful Rate, the actual rate of interest to accrue on such principal amount will be limited to the Highest Lawful Rate, but any subsequent reductions in the Contract Rate for any reason will not reduce the interest rate payable on such amount below the Highest Lawful Rate until the total amount of interest accrued on such principal amount equals the amount of interest which would have accrued if the Contract Rate had at all times been in effect. 

(b)    Notwithstanding the foregoing, during the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, the Lender may, at its option, by notice to the Borrower (which notice may be revoked at the option of the Lender), declare that the entire outstanding principal balance of the Note shall bear interest at the Default Rate.
(c)    CBFR Interest shall be paid on the last day of each calendar month and LIBOR Interest shall be paid on the last day of each applicable LIBOR Period; provided that (i) Default Interest shall be payable on demand, and (ii) in the event of any repayment or prepayment of the Note, accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment.
(d)    All CBFR Interest shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year) and all LIBOR Interest shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, and in each case shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed.  The applicable CB Floating Rate or LIBOR Rate shall be determined by the Lender, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
(e)    At any time and from time to time, Borrower may notify Lender in writing in form acceptable to Lender of what portion of the outstanding principal amount of the Note Borrower elects to accrue interest at the LIBOR Rate and the first day of the LIBOR Period to apply thereto, which day shall be at least three Business Days after the date of such notice; and the remaining outstanding principal balance of the Note shall accrue interest at the CB Floating Rate; provided that (i) at no time may more than one LIBOR Period be in effect; (ii) the minimum outstanding principal amount of any LIBOR Advance shall be $100,000; and (iii) in the event Borrower fails to so notify Lender that a portion of the outstanding principal balance of the Note is to accrue interest at the LIBOR Rate, Borrower shall be deemed to have elected the CB Floating Rate to be the rate of interest applicable to the entire outstanding principal balance of the Note; and (iv) in the event Borrower fails to notify Lender at least three Business Days prior to the last day of any LIBOR Period that Borrower elects to change the outstanding principal amount of the LIBOR Advance for a new LIBOR Period, Borrower shall be deemed to have elected to continue to have the same amount continue to accrue interest at the LIBOR Rate for an additional LIBOR Period commencing on the last day of the current LIBOR Period.

Section 1.Collateral.  To secure payment and performance of all Borrower's Obligations, Borrower shall grant to Lender valid, enforceable and duly perfected Liens, including the Security Interest, on all Collateral.  The Liens shall be of first priority with respect to the Collateral described in Section 6(A) of the Loan Authorization Notice, and the Liens shall have the priorities set forth in Sections 6(E) and (F) of the Loan Authorization Notice with respect to the other Collateral, in each case subject only to Permitted Liens.  Borrower agrees that Lender shall have in respect of all Collateral that is subject to the UCC all of the rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC in all states in which any portion of the Collateral may be located, as well as those provided in this Agreement.  In the event Lender has extended or extends a loan or other credit accommodation to Borrower in addition to the Loan and receives a Lien on any assets or property, the Lien on such assets and property shall also secure Borrower's Obligations, and Borrower agrees to execute such documents and instruments as Lender requires to extend such security to Borrower's Obligations.
Section 2.Perfection of Security Interest.  Borrower agrees to the filing of financing statements and the execution of other documents and to take whatever other actions are requested by Lender to perfect and continue Lender's Liens upon the Collateral.  Borrower hereby appoints Lender as its irrevocable attorney-in-fact for the purpose of executing any financing statements and other documents necessary to perfect or to continue its Liens.  Lender may at any time, and without further authorization from Borrower, file a copy, photograph, facsimile, or other reproduction of any financing statement for use as a financing statement.  Borrower will reimburse Lender for all expenses for the perfection, termination, and the continuation of the perfection of Lender's Liens upon the Collateral.  Borrower will promptly notify Lender of any change in Borrower's name including any change to the assumed business names of Borrower.  Borrower also will promptly notify Lender of any change in Borrower's social security number or employer identification number.  Before any cash Collateral shall be included in the Export-Related Borrowing Base, the Borrower shall cause each deposit account or other bank account in which such cash is deposited to be subject to a first priority lien in favor of Lender pursuant to an account control agreement in form and substance satisfactory to Lender.  The Lender's Security Interest in any Export-Related Accounts Receivable shall be further perfected by Borrower's execution and delivery to Lender of any instruments, the giving of any notices and the taking of any additional steps that may be required under foreign law in order to ensure the effectiveness of the assignment of such Export-Related  Accounts Receivable against the Buyer.
Section 3.Collateral Records and Reports; Field Examinations.  Borrower does now, and at all times hereafter shall keep correct and accurate books and records of the Collateral, all of which books and records shall be available to Lender or Lender's representative upon demand for inspection and copying at any reasonable time.  In this connection, Borrower acknowledges that Lender is required by Ex-Im Bank to perform (or contract to perform) a field examination of Borrower and the Collateral in accordance with Lender's customary procedures but in no event less than every six months.  Such field examination shall include without limitation an inspection and valuation of Inventory and Other Assets, a book audit of Accounts Receivable and a review of the Accounts Receivable Aging Report.  Borrower further acknowledges that Lender is required by the Ex-Im Bank to perform (or contract to perform) a review of Borrower's sales records at least on a quarterly basis.  For Revolving Loan Facilities, if Lender elects in its sole discretion to make Credit Accommodations based upon summaries of Export Orders, then at least once each quarter, Lender shall review a sampling selected by Lender of those Export Orders representing at least ten percent (10%) of the aggregate Dollar volume of Export Orders and ten percent (10%) of the number of Export Orders supporting Credit Accommodations made or incurred during the past quarter.  Specifically with respect to Export-Related Collateral, Borrower agrees to keep and maintain such books and records as Lender may require. Borrower shall submit to Lender in writing from time to time upon Lender's request and in any event no later than thirty (30) days after the end of each calendar month (a) an Accounts Receivable Aging Report for the immediately preceding month, which report shall include the customer name, Dollar amount due and number of days outstanding for each Export-Related Account Receivable, (b) an Inventory schedule for the immediately preceding month, which schedule shall include the location of each Item of Inventory, (c) 

information concerning the status of completion of Export Orders, and (d) such other information, reports, contracts, invoices and other data  relating to the Collateral as Lender may request.
Section 4.Payment under Borrower Letters of Credit.  If the letter of credit payment terms for the country specified in a certain Export Order are specified in the Country Limitation Schedule with respect to such country, Borrower shall require that each commercial letter of credit issued for its benefit with respect to any Export-Related Account Receivable or Export-Related Inventory arising out such Export Order shall provide that all payments of drawings thereunder shall be paid for the account of Borrower directly to Borrower's account with Lender, or, alternatively, that payment shall be made only to Lender's account.
Section 5.Assignment of Foreign Credit Insurance Policy Proceeds and Buyer/Supplier Financing.  Borrower shall, simultaneously with the execution of this Agreement and as and when such policies are put into effect or financing is obtained by Borrower for the benefit of any Buyer, at any time prior to the payment and performance in full of Borrower's Obligations, assign to Lender the proceeds of all foreign credit insurance policies maintained by Borrower and any financing obtained by Borrower for the benefit of any Buyer, including, without limitation, any financing the repayment of which is guaranteed or insured by Ex-Im Bank or any other expert credit agency, such assignment to provide for payment to be made directly into Borrower's account with Lender or to Lender.
Section 6.Loss of Collateral.  Lender shall not be liable for the loss of any Collateral in its possession, nor shall such loss diminish Borrower's Obligations.
Section 7.Negative Pledge.  Until the Borrower's Obligations hereunder have been paid in full, unless the Bank otherwise consents in writing, the Borrower agrees that it shall not create or agree to create, any Lien on the Collateral, except for Permitted Liens or Liens created for the benefit of Lender to secure the Borrower's Obligations.

Except as may be prohibited by applicable law, all of Lender's rights and remedies shall be cumulative and may be exercised singularly or concurrently.  Election by Lender to pursue any remedy shall not exclude pursuit of any other remedy, and an election to make expenditures or to take action to perform an obligation of Borrower shall not affect Lender's right to declare a default and to exercise its rights and remedies.

This Agreement, the other Financing Documents and the Waiver Letter supersede all existing agreements, oral or written, previously entered into between Borrower and Lender with respect to the Loan unless Borrower and 

Lender agree in writing to the contrary.  
Section 3.Caption Headings.  Caption headings in this Agreement are for convenience purposes only and are not to be used to interpret or define the provisions of this Agreement.  
Section 4.Consent to Loan Participation.  Borrower agrees and consents to Lender's sale or transfer, at Lender's sole discretion, whether now or later, of one or more participation interests in the Loan to one or more purchasers, whether related or unrelated to Lender.  Lender may provide, without any limitation whatsoever, to any one or more purchasers, potential purchasers, or affiliates of Lender, any information or knowledge Lender may have about Borrower or about any other matter relating to the Loan, and Borrower hereby waives any rights to privacy it may have with respect to such matters.

Section 6.Survival.  All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties of Borrower made herein and in the other Financing Documents and in the certificates, instruments and other documents delivered pursuant hereto or thereto shall survive the making or incurring of Credit Accommodations hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect until all of Borrower's 

Obligations have been paid and performed in full.  
Section 7.Successors and Assigns.  Whenever in this Agreement any of the parties hereto is referred to, such reference shall be deemed to include the successors and permitted assigns of such party; and all covenants, promises and agreements by or on behalf of Borrower which are contained in this Agreement or in the other Financing Documents shall inure to the benefit of the successors and assigns of Lender and Ex-Im Bank, which is a third-party beneficiary of this Agreement and each of the other Financing Documents to which it is not a direct party.  Borrower may not assign any interest that it may have under this Agreement, including, without limitation, the right to receive the benefit of the Loan to be extended hereunder, without the prior written consent of Lender and Ex-Im Bank.  Any assignment made or attempted by Borrower without the prior written consent of Lender and Ex-Im Bank shall be void and of no effect.  No consent by Lender and Ex-Im Bank to an assignment by Borrower shall release Borrower as the party primarily obligated and liable under the terms of this Agreement unless Borrower shall be released specifically by Lender and Ex-Im Bank in writing.  No consent by Lender and Ex-Im Bank to an assignment shall be deemed to be a waiver of the requirement of prior written consent by Lender and Ex-Im Bank with respect to each and every further assignment and as a condition precedent to the effectiveness of such assignment.  Lender may assign its interest in any or all of the Financing Documents or the Waiver Letter to any Person, including Ex-Im Bank, without the consent of or notice to Borrower or any other Person, upon such terms as Lender in its sole discretion deems appropriate.  
Section 8.Payment of Fees and Expenses.  Borrower shall pay all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, including, without limitation, the fees and disbursements of legal counsel employed by Lender, incurred by Lender in connection with (a) the preparation and negotiation of this Agreement, the Waiver Letter and the other Financing Documents, (b) the making or incurring of Credit Accommodations by Lender, (c) the protection of the Collateral and any other security for the repayment of Borrower's Obligations, and (d) the enforcement and protection of the rights of Lender in connection with this Agreement, the Waiver Letter or any of the other Financing Documents.  Prior to Lender's making or incurring any Credit Accommodations hereunder, Borrower shall pay to Lender, as an additional condition precedent to the making or incurring of Credit Accommodations, the Ex-Im Bank facility fee determined in accordance with the Loan Authorization Notice and all other fees and expenses due Lender.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Borrower shall pay or cause to be paid to Lender the Ex-Im Bank application fee in the amount of $100 and the Ex-Im Bank guarantee fee in the amount of $75,000, payable on the Effective Date and at any renewal hereof.
Section 9.Applicable Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process.  Except as hereinafter expressly provided, this Agreement is governed by and shall be construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Connecticut.  The Ex-Im Bank Guarantee is governed by New York law.  Accordingly, notwithstanding any provision  to the contrary contained herein or in any of the other Financing Documents, to the extent, but only to the extent, necessary to assure full satisfaction of and compliance with all terms and conditions of Ex-Im Bank's guaranty of Borrower's Obligations under the Ex-Im Bank Guarantee and to preserve Lender's rights thereunder, this Agreement and each of the other Financing Documents shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York.  Lender and Borrower hereby submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any Connecticut state court or federal court sitting in Connecticut over any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement.  Final judgment in any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court shall be conclusive and binding upon Borrower and may be enforced in any court to the jurisdiction of which Borrower is subject, by a suit upon the judgment.
Section 10.No Liability of Lender.  Neither Lender nor Ex-Im Bank shall be liable for any act or omission by it pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, in the absence of fraud or gross negligence.  Borrower hereby agrees that neither Lender nor Ex-Im Bank shall be chargeable for any negligence, mistake, act or omission of any accountant, examiner, agency or attorney employed by it in making examinations, investigations or collections, or otherwise in perfecting, maintaining, protecting or realizing upon any lien or Security Interest in the Collateral or any other interest in any security for Borrower's Obligations.  Neither 

Lender nor Ex-Im Bank shall incur any liability to Borrower or to any other party in connection with the acts or omissions of Lender or Ex-Im Bank in reliance upon any certificate or other paper believed by Lender or Ex-Im Bank to be genuine or with respect to any other thing which Lender or Ex-Im Bank may do or refrain from doing, unless such act or omission amounts to fraud or gross negligence.  
Section 11.WAIVER OF SPECIAL DAMAGES. THE BORROWER WAIVES, TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT NOT PROHIBITED BY LAW, ANY RIGHT THE UNDERSIGNED MAY HAVE TO CLAIM OR RECOVER FROM THE BANK IN ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING ANY SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES. 
Section 12.Indemnification.  Borrower agrees to protect, indemnify, defend and hold harmless Lender and Ex-Im Bank from and against any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs or expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys' fees AND ANY SUCH CLAIMS, DAMAGES, LOSSES, LIABILITIES, COSTS OR EXPENSES INCURRED BY REASON OF THE LENDER'S OR EX-IM BANK'S OWN NEGLIGENCE OR STRICT LIABILITY) whatsoever which Lender and Ex-Im Bank may, at any time, sustain or incur by reason of or in consequence of or arising out of extending the Loan to Borrower, the making or incurring of Credit Accommodations, or the issuance of a guaranty of Borrower's Obligations, as the case may be; it being the intention of the parties that this Agreement shall be construed and applied to protect, indemnify, defend and hold harmless Lender and Ex-Im Bank against any and all risks involved in the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the Waiver Letter and the other Financing Documents, all of which risks are hereby assumed by Borrower.  The provisions of this Section shall survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement, the Waiver Letter, the other Financing Documents, and the payment and performance of Borrower's Obligations. 
Section 13.Authorization for Direct Payments (ACH Debits).  To effectuate any payment due under this Agreement, the Note or any other Financing Document, Borrower hereby authorizes Lender to initiate debit entries to any deposit account of Borrower maintained with Lender and to debit the same to such account. This authorization to initiate debit entries shall remain in full force and effect until Lender has received written notification of its termination in such time and in such manner as to afford Lender a reasonable opportunity to act on it. Borrower acknowledges (a) that such debit entries may cause an overdraft of any such account which may result in Lender's refusal to honor items drawn on any such account until adequate deposits are made to any such account; (b) that Lender is under no duty or obligation to initiate any debit entry for any purpose; and (c) that if a debit is not made because any such account does not have a sufficient available balance, or otherwise, the payments may be late or past due.
Section 14.No Partnership.  Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed in a manner to create any relationship among Borrower, Lender and Ex-Im Bank other than the relationship of borrower, lender and credit enhancement provider, and Borrower, Lender and Ex-Im Bank shall not be considered partners or co-venturers for any purpose on account of this Agreement.  
Section 15.Controlling Agreement.  Borrower acknowledges and agrees that (a) the Borrower Agreement contains additional representations, terms, covenants and conditions related to Borrower and the Loan, and (b) as between Lender and Borrower this Agreement and the Borrower Agreement together govern the establishment of the Loan as a Loan Facility guaranteed pursuant to the Ex-Im Bank Guarantee and the making and incurring of Credit Accommodations under the Loan.  In the event any of the representations, terms, covenants or conditions contained in this Agreement conflict with those contained in the Borrower Agreement, then as between Lender and Borrower, the more stringent provisions of each with respect to Borrower shall govern and prevail.
Section 16.USA PATRIOT ACT NOTIFICATION.  The following notification is provided to Borrowers pursuant to Section 326 of the USA Patriot Act of 2001, 31 U.S.C. Section 5318: IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT PROCEDURES FOR OPENING A NEW ACCOUNT.  To help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, Federal law requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each person or entity that opens an account, including any deposit account, treasury management account, loan, other extension of credit, or other financial services 

product. What this means for Borrowers:  When any Borrower opens an account, if any Borrower is an individual Lender will ask for such Borrower's name, taxpayer identification number, residential address, date of birth, and other information that will allow Lender to identify such Borrower, and if any Borrower is not an individual Lender will ask for such Borrower's name, taxpayer identification number, business address, and other information that will allow Lender to identify such Borrower. Lender may also ask, if any Borrower is an individual to see such Borrower's driver's license or other identifying documents, and if any Borrower is not an individual to see such Borrower's legal organizational  documents or other identifying documents.
Section 17.Waiver of Trial by Jury.  EACH OF BORROWER AND LENDER HEREBY VOLUNTARILY, KNOWINGLY, IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT, OR OTHERWISE), TO WHICH BORROWER AND LENDER MAY BE PARTIES ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY PERTAINING OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE WAIVER LETTER OR ANY OF THE OTHER FINANCING DOCUMENTS.  IT IS AGREED AND UNDERSTOOD THAT THIS WAIVER CONSTITUTES A WAIVER OF TRIAL BY JURY OF ALL CLAIMS AGAINST ALL PARTIES TO SUCH ACTIONS OR PROCEEDINGS, INCLUDING CLAIMS AGAINST PARTIES WHO ARE NOT PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT.  THIS WAIVER IS KNOWINGLY, WILLINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY MADE BY EACH OF BORROWER AND LENDER, AND BORROWER HEREBY REPRESENTS THAT NO REPRESENTATIONS OF FACT OR OPINION HAVE BEEN MADE BY ANY PERSON TO INDUCE THIS WAIVER OF TRIAL BY JURY OR TO IN ANY WAY MODIFY OR NULLIFY ITS EFFECT.  BORROWER FURTHER REPRESENTS THAT IT HAS HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE REPRESENTED IN THE SIGNING OF THIS AGREEMENT AND IN THE MAKING OF THIS WAIVER BY INDEPENDENT LEGAL COUNSEL, SELECTED OF ITS OWN FREE WILL, AND THAT IT HAS HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO DISCUSS THIS WAIVER WITH COUNSEL.  THIS PROVISION IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT TO THE LENDER TO PROVIDE THE FINANCING HEREUNDER.
Section 18.Severability.  If a court of competent jurisdiction finds any provision of this Agreement to be invalid or unenforceable as to any person or circumstance, such finding shall not render that provision invalid or unenforceable as to any other persons or circumstances.  If feasible, any such offending provision shall be deemed to be modified to be within the limits of enforceability or validity, however, if the offending provision cannot be so modified, it shall be stricken and all other provisions of this Agreement in all other respect shall remain valid and enforceable.  
Section 19.Rules of Construction.  For purposes of this Agreement, the following additional rules of construction shall apply, unless specifically indicated to the contrary: (a) wherever from the context it appears appropriate, each term stated in either the singular or plural shall include the singular and the plural, and pronouns stated in the masculine, feminine or neuter gender shall include the masculine, the feminine and the neuter; (b) the term “or” is not exclusive; (c) the term “including” (or any form thereof) shall not be limiting or exclusive; (d) all references to statutes and related regulations shall include any amendments of same and any successor statutes and regulations; (e) the words “this Agreement”, “herein”, “hereof”, “hereunder” or other words of similar import refer to this Agreement as a whole including the exhibits hereto as the same may be amended, modified or supplemented; (f) all references in this Agreement to sections, subsections, paragraphs and exhibits shall refer to the corresponding sections, subsections, paragraphs and exhibits of or to this Agreement; and (g) all references to any instruments or agreements, including references to the Waiver Letter or any of the Financing Documents, shall include any and all modifications, amendments and supplements thereto and any and all restatements, extensions or renewals thereof to the extent permitted under this Agreement.
Section 20.Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which together shall constitute the same document.  Signature pages may be detached from the counterparts to a single copy of this Agreement to physically form one document.  

Section 21.Time is of the Essence.  Time is of the essence in the performance of this Agreement.
Section 22.Waiver.  Lender shall not be deemed to have waived any rights under this Agreement unless such waiver is given in writing and signed by Lender.  No delay or omission on the part of Lender in exercising any right shall operate as a waiver of such right or any other right.  A waiver by Lender of a provision of this Agreement shall not prejudice or constitute a waiver of Lender's right otherwise to demand strict compliance with that provision or any other provision of this Agreement.  No prior waiver by Lender, nor any course of dealing between Lender and Borrower, or between Lender, shall constitute a waiver of any of Lender's rights or of any obligations of Borrower as to any future transactions.  Whenever the consent of Lender is required under this Agreement, the granting of such consent by Lender in any instance shall not constitute continuing consent in subsequent instances where such consent is required, and in all cases such consent may be granted or withheld in the sole discretion of Lender.  
Section 23.Usury not Intended. Borrower and Lender intend to conform strictly to applicable usury laws. Therefore, the total amount of interest (as defined under applicable law) contracted for, charged or collected under this Agreement or any other Loan Document will never exceed the Highest Lawful Rate. If Lender contracts for, charges or receives any excess interest, it will be deemed a mistake. Lender will automatically reform the Loan Document or charge to conform to applicable law, and if excess interest has been received, Lender will either refund the excess to Borrower or credit the excess on any unpaid principal amount of the Note or any other Loan Document. All amounts constituting interest will be spread throughout the full term  of the Loan Document or applicable Note in determining whether interest exceeds lawful amounts.
Section 24.ENTIRE AGREEMENT.  THIS WRITTEN AGREEMENT AND THE FINANCING DOCUMENTS REPRESENT THE FINAL AGREEMENT AMONG THE PARTIES AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR CONTEMPORANEOUS, OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES.
THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN ORAL AGREEMENTS AMONG THE PARTIES.
