If any changes in GAAP are hereafter required or permitted and are adopted by Borrowers on a consolidated basis with the agreement of their certified public accountants and such changes result in a change in the method of calculation of any of the financial covenants, restrictions or standards herein or in the related definitions or terms used therein, the parties hereto agree to enter into negotiations to amend such provisions so as to reflect equitably such changes with the desired result that the criteria for evaluating the financial condition of Borrowers on a consolidated basis shall be the same after such changes as if such changes had not been made; provided, however, that (x) no change in GAAP that would affect the method of calculation of any of the financial covenants, restrictions or standards or definitions of terms used therein shall be given effect in such calculations until such provisions are amended in a manner reasonably satisfactory to Lender and (y) Borrowers shall provide to Lender a written reconciliation in form and substance satisfactory to Lender between calculations of such covenant, restriction, standard or definition made before and after giving effect to such change in GAAP. To the extent that Borrowers and Lender are not able to reach agreement on an acceptable amendment to the Loan Documents to modify any of the financial covenants, restrictions or standards therein or in the related definitions or terms used therein so as to reflect equitably such GAAP changes with the desired result that the criteria for evaluating the financial condition of Borrowers on a consolidated basis shall be the same after such GAAP changes as if such GAAP changes had not been made, then all future calculations of the financial covenants, restrictions or standards therein or in the related definitions or terms used therein shall be calculated on a pro forma basis as if the GAAP changes had not occurred and Borrowers shall provide a reconciliation of any differences between Borrowers’ GAAP financial statements and the pro forma financial statements and other information utilized to prepare the financial covenants, restrictions or standards therein or in the related definitions or terms used therein.
1.4    Time.  Unless otherwise specified, all references in this Agreement to times of day shall be references to Central time (daylight or standard, as applicable).
Section 2    Loan Commitment.
2.1    Loans.  

- 21 -

(f)    Initial Term Loan.  Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each Lender, severally and not jointly, agrees to make, and hereby makes, a single advance Loan on a non‐revolving basis to Borrowers on the Closing Date, in an amount for such Lender equal to its Percentage Interest of the Initial Term Loan Commitment (the “Initial Term Loan”).
(g)    Additional Term Loan.  Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and any other conditions that Agent and each Lender may require (including, without limitation, the payment of fees, the issuance of warrants to Lender and an amendment to this Agreement to specify interest rates and any other terms and conditions applicable to such Additional Term Loan), each Lender, severally and not jointly, may (but is not obligated to) make, at its sole option, additional term Loans on a non‐revolving basis to Borrowers from time to time in minimum increments of $500,000, in an aggregate amount for the Lenders taken as a whole not to exceed its Percentage Interest of the Additional Term Loan Commitment (the “Additional Term Loans” and, collectively with the Initial Term Loan, the “Term Loan”).  Each Additional Term Loan shall be subject to and conditioned upon (i) Lender’s approval of the proposed use of proceeds in its sole discretion, and (ii) Lender’s satisfaction, in its sole discretion, that (A) Borrowers are generally executing their business plan and projections, and (B) no Default or Potential Default exists or would result from such Additional Term Loan.  Terms of the Additional Term Loan will be agreed to prior to the consummation of such Additional Term Loan and an amendment to this Agreement shall be entered into, if necessary, to evidence such terms.
(h)    Revolving Loan.  Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each Lender, jointly and severally, agrees to loan to Borrowers after the Closing Date (but not on the Closing Date) an amount not to exceed its Percentage Interest of the Revolving Loan Commitment in one or more Loans (each, a “Revolving Loan”), which Borrowers may borrow, repay, and re-borrow under this Agreement (the “Revolving Credit Facility”).  Lender’s commitment to lend under the Revolving Credit Facility shall expire upon the earlier to occur of (i) the payment in full of the Term Loan or (ii) 2:00 p.m. on the last Business Day preceding the Revolving Loan Maturity Date; provided that, Borrowers’ obligations and Lender’s rights under the Loan Documents shall continue in effect until the Obligation is paid in full.  Each Lender shall fund its Percentage Interest of each Revolving Loan, except as otherwise mutually agreed by the Lenders.  In addition to compliance with the conditions precedent specified in Section 5.4, each Revolving Loan shall be subject to the following conditions:
(i)    each Revolving Loan must occur on a Business Day and no later than the Business Day immediately preceding the Revolving Loan Maturity Date;
(ii)    Lender must receive Borrowers’ Loan  Request for each Revolving Loan by 10:00 a.m. on the fifth Business Day before the date of the proposed Loan Date; 
(iii)    Borrowers shall not request more than one (1) Revolving Loan in any five (5) Business Day period;

- 22 -

(iv)    each Revolving Loan (unless the remaining Available Revolving Amount is less) must be in an amount not less than $100,000 or a greater integral multiple of $100,000;
(v)    no Revolving Loan may exceed the Available Revolving Amount; and
(vi)    after giving effect to any Revolving Loan, the Revolving Loan Principal Debt may not exceed the lesser of (A) the Revolving Loan Commitment and (B) the Borrowing Base Amount.
2.2    Term Loan Procedure.  Subject to compliance with Section 5, Borrowers may request (a) the Initial Term Loan by submitting a Loan Request to Lender on the Closing Date, and (b) any Additional Term Loan by submitting a Loan Request to Lender no later than 10:00 a.m. at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the proposed Loan Date.
2.3    Permitted Prepayment.  Borrowers may voluntarily prepay any or all of the Principal Debt from time to time as set out below:
(a)    Lender must receive Borrowers’ written or telephonic prepayment notice by 10:00 a.m. on the fifth (5th) Business Day before the date of the proposed prepayment;
(b)    Borrowers’ prepayment notice shall (i) specify the prepayment date and the amount thereof, and (ii) constitute an irrevocable and binding obligation of Borrowers to make such prepayment on the designated date;
(c)    any prepayment pursuant to this Section 2.3 must be made in minimum increments of $100,000 (including any accrued and unpaid interest); provided that if the Principal Debt is less than $100,000 (including any accrued and unpaid interest), any prepayment pursuant to this Section 2.3 must be for the entire amount of the Principal Debt;
(d)    all accrued and unpaid interest on the Principal Debt must also be paid in full on the date of prepayment; and
(e)    any and all prepayments by Borrowers pursuant to this Section 2.3 shall be applied first to reduce the Revolving Loan Principal Debt unless and until the Revolving Loan Principal Debt has been repaid in full and then to the Term Loan Principal Debt.
For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 2.3 shall apply to any mandatory prepayments made pursuant to Section 2.4.
Except as set forth above in this Section 2.3, Borrowers possess no optional prepayment rights under this Agreement or the Notes.  Amounts repaid or prepaid in respect of the Term Notes may not be re-borrowed without Lender’s written consent.

- 23 -

2.4    Mandatory Prepayment.
(a)    If the Term Loan Principal Debt ever exceeds (i) the Initial Term Loan Commitment prior to the Loan Date for any Additional Term Loan, or (ii) after the Loan Date for any Additional Term Loan, the aggregate amount of all Loans funded under the Term Loan, then Borrowers shall promptly prepay the Term Loan Principal Debt in the amount of that excess, together with all accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount prepaid.
(b)    If the Revolving Loan Principal Debt ever exceeds the lesser of the Revolving Loan Commitment and the Borrowing Base Amount, then Borrowers shall promptly prepay the Revolving Loan Principal Debt in the amount of such excess, together with all accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount prepaid.
(c)    At Agent’s election, the following amounts may either be applied to the Obligation in accordance with Section 3.3 or retained by the applicable Borrower:
(i)    all Net Proceeds from the disposition of any asset whether or not permitted by Section 9.9 (other than dispositions permitted under Section 9.9(a), (b) or (c)); and
(ii)    all Insurance Proceeds (other than business interruption Insurance Proceeds) and Eminent Domain Proceeds that relate to any Borrower’s assets and that Lender is entitled to receive under Section 8.12 (other than Insurance Proceeds used to restore or replace assets of any Borrower as permitted under Section 8.12(c)).
(d)    Amounts repaid or prepaid in respect of the Term Notes may not be re‐borrowed without Lender’s written consent.
(e)    On each Excess Cash Flow Prepayment Date immediately following the end of each fiscal quarter, beginning with the fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2013 (provided that for the first such fiscal quarter calculation shall be for the period from the Closing Date through December 31, 2013) and continuing until the Principal Debt is paid in full, if Borrowers achieve Excess Cash Flow with respect to any fiscal quarter that is greater than zero dollars ($0.00), then Borrowers shall prepay the Principal Debt in an amount equal to (i) from and after the Closing Date until April 17, 2015, thirty three percent (33%) of such Excess Cash Flow and (ii) thereafter, fifty percent (50%) of such Excess Cash Flow.
(f)    Any and all prepayments by Borrowers pursuant to Sections 2.4(c) or (e) shall be applied first to reduce the Revolving Loan Principal Debt unless and until the Revolving Loan Principal Debt has been repaid in full and then to the Term Loan Principal Debt. 

- 24 -

2.5    Joint and Several Obligations.
(a)    The Loans to Borrowers and all other Obligations of Borrowers arising under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall constitute the joint and several obligations of Borrowers secured, until their final maturity and payment in full, by all of the Collateral.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, at the time the Loans and all other Obligations are paid in full and all commitments in respect thereof have been terminated or expired, Agent shall, at Borrowers’ sole cost and expense, take any and all actions reasonably necessary and requested by the Borrowers to release Agent’s security interest in and to the Collateral.
(b)    Each Borrower acknowledges that: (i) the business operations of each Borrower are interrelated and complement one another, and that such entities have a common business purpose, (ii) to permit their uninterrupted and continuous operations, Borrowers now require the funds from Lender as set forth in the Loan Documents, and (iii) each Borrower has determined that the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and any other Loan Documents to which such Borrower is a party is within its purpose, will be of direct and indirect benefit to such Borrower, and is in the best interest of such Borrower.
2.6    Extension of Revolving Loan Maturity Date.  
(a)    Provided that no Default or Potential Default exists, not earlier than ninety (90) days prior to, nor later than sixty (60) days prior to the Revolving Loan Maturity Date then in effect, the Company may, upon written notice to Agent, elect to extend such Revolving Loan Maturity Date until the immediately succeeding one-year anniversary of such Revolving Loan Maturity Date; provided that the Company may exercise this right on no more than three consecutive occasions. 
(b)    As a condition precedent to such extension, (i) each Borrower shall deliver to Agent a certificate of such Borrower dated as of the proposed extension effective date signed by a Responsible Officer of such Borrower certifying and attaching the resolutions adopted by such Borrower authorizing such extension or confirming that those previously delivered pursuant to Section 5.2(a) remain in full force and effect and have not been amended or rescinded, as the case may be, (ii) each Borrower shall deliver to Agent a certificate of such Borrower dated as of the proposed extension effective date signed by a Responsible Officer of such Borrower certifying that, (A) immediately before and after giving effect to such extension, the representations and warranties of such Borrower contained in the Loan Documents are true and correct in all material respects (except to the extent that such representations and warranties speak to a specified date, in which case they are true and correct in all respects as of such date), (B) immediately before and after giving effect to such extension, no Default or Potential Default exists or will exist, and (C) since the most immediately preceding fiscal year end of Borrower, there has not occurred a Material Adverse Event and (iii) Borrowers shall pay to Lender a commitment fee in an amount equal to $10,000 which is one-half percent of one percent (0.5%) of the amount of the Revolving Loan Commitment.

- 25 -

Section 3    Terms Of Payment.
3.1    Note and Payments Generally.
(a)    Upon request by any Lender, Borrowers’ Debt in respect of the Loans shall be evidenced by the Notes.  Each Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes Lender to make (or cause to be made) appropriate notations on the grids attached to the Notes (or on any continuation of such grids or, at Lender’s option, in its records), which notations, if made, shall evidence, inter alia, the date of and the outstanding principal balance of the portion of the Loans evidenced thereby.  Such notations shall be rebuttably presumptive evidence of the subject matter thereof absent manifest error; provided, however, that the failure to make any such notations shall not limit or otherwise affect any obligations of any Borrower.
(b)    Except as otherwise required by applicable Law, Borrowers must make each payment on the Obligation, without offset, counterclaim or deduction, free and clear of all Taxes (other than Excluded Taxes) and without any withholding, restriction or condition imposed by any Governmental Authority to Lender’s designated depositary accounts or to Lender’s designated principal offices, in funds that will be available for immediate use by Lender by 11:00 a.m. on the day due.  If any Withholding Agent is required by applicable Law to deduct any such amounts from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder to Lender, then the sum payable hereunder shall be increased as may be necessary so that, after making all required deductions, Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made.  Payments received after the time noted in the first sentence of this subsection (b) will be deemed received on the next Business Day.  Whenever any payment to be made hereunder shall be stated to be due on a date other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day.  
3.2    Loan Payments.  
(f)    Term Loan Interest. Beginning November 1, 2013 and continuing until the Term Loan Principal Debt is paid in full and all accrued interest thereon, Borrowers shall pay to Lender all accrued and unpaid interest on the Term Loans  monthly in arrears on the first day of each month.  
(g)    Revolving Loan Interest.  Beginning on the first day of the first calendar month following the initial Revolving Loan funded by Lender pursuant to this Agreement, and continuing until the Revolving Credit Facility is terminated and the Revolving Loan Principal Debt and all accrued interest on the Revolving Loan Principal Debt is paid in full, Borrowers shall pay to Lender, on the first day of each calendar month, all accrued and unpaid interest on the Revolving Loan Principal Debt.
(h)    ACH Payments.  Borrowers shall execute and deliver the ACH Authorization Agreements on the Closing Date and shall make, or cause to be made, such interest payments when due by ACH transfer or automatic debit from Borrowers’ accounts into Lender’s accounts as designated on attached Schedule 1 or such other accounts as Borrowers and Lender may agree in writing.

- 26 -

(i)    Payment at Maturity.  All outstanding Principal Debt and all accrued and unpaid interest on the Principal Debt are due and payable, and each Borrower promises to pay all outstanding Principal Debt and all accrued and unpaid interest on the Principal Debt, on the Maturity Date.
3.3    Order of Application.
(g)    If no Default or Potential Default exists, all payments, permitted prepayments, and mandatory prepayments shall be applied as specified in this Agreement, and if not specified, such payments shall be applied among principal, interest, fees, expenses, late charges, collection costs, and other charges under the Loan Documents for which Lender has not been paid or reimbursed at Lender’s sole discretion.
(h)    At any time a Default or Potential Default exists, all payments (including the proceeds from the exercise of any rights by Agent, any Lender or Borrower) shall be applied among principal, interest, fees, expenses, late charges, collection costs, and other charges under the Loan Documents for which Lenders have not been paid or reimbursed at each such Lender’s sole discretion.
(i)    Unless otherwise agreed to by Lenders, any payment, permitted prepayment and mandatory prepayment under the Loan shall be applied between the Notes in proportion to the Percentage Interests of Lenders.
3.4    Interest Rate.  
(c)    Term Loan Interest Rate.  Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the Term Loan Principal Debt shall accrue interest at an annual rate equal to the lesser of (i) twelve percent (12.0%) per annum and (ii) the Maximum Rate.  
(d)    Revolving Loan Interest Rate.  Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the Revolving Loan Principal Debt shall accrue interest at an annual rate equal to the lesser of (i) eight percent (8.0%) and (ii) the Maximum Rate.  
(e)    Changes in Maximum Rate.  Each change in the Maximum Rate is effective as of the effective date of such change without notice to Borrowers or any other Person.
3.5    Default Rate; Late Charge.  To the extent permitted by Law, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any Default, (a) the Term Loan Principal Debt shall accrue interest, payable on demand, at an annual rate equal to the lesser of (i) fifteen percent (15.0%) per annum and (ii) the Maximum Rate and (b) the Revolving Loan Principal Debt shall accrue interest at an annual rate equal to the lesser of (i) eleven percent (11.0%) and (ii) the Maximum Rate (such interest rate, as applicable, the “Default Rate”).  Subject to Section 3.7, each Lender may, to the extent permitted by Law, in its sole discretion, add accrued and unpaid interest to the Principal Debt after any such amount is due in accordance with this Agreement, and such amount will accrue interest until paid at the applicable interest rate.

- 27 -

3.6    Interest Calculations.  Interest and fees on the Loans and all other amounts due under any Loan Document will be calculated on the basis of actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day) but computed as if each calendar year consisted of 360 days (unless such computation would result in an interest rate in excess of the Maximum Rate or interest in excess of the Maximum Amount, in which event the computation is made on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be).  All interest rate determinations and calculations by Lender are presumptively correct absent manifest error.
3.7    Maximum Rate.  Regardless of any provision in any Loan Document, it is the intention of Borrowers and Lender that Lender not (a) contract for, charge, take, reserve, receive, or apply, as interest on all or any part of the Obligation any amount in excess of the Maximum Rate or the Maximum Amount or (b) receive any unearned interest, in violation of any applicable Law.  If any acceleration of the maturity of the Notes, the Obligation or any payment under the Loan Documents produces a rate in excess of the Maximum Rate, or if Lender shall for any reason receive any such unearned interest, or if any transaction contemplated hereby or by any other Loan Document would otherwise be usurious under applicable Law, then (i) the aggregate of all interest under applicable usury laws that is contracted for, charged, taken, reserved, received or applied under this Agreement, or under any of the other Loan Documents or otherwise shall under no circumstances exceed the Maximum Amount, (ii) no Borrower nor any other Person shall be obligated to pay the amount of such interest to the extent that it is in excess of the Maximum Amount, (iii) any excess or unearned interest shall be deemed to be and shall be treated as a partial prepayment or repayment of principal and any remaining excess or unearned interest will be refunded to Borrowers, and (iv) the provisions of this Agreement, the Notes and the other Loan Documents immediately shall be deemed reformed, without the necessity of the execution of any new document or instrument, so as to comply with all applicable usury laws.  In determining whether interest paid or payable exceeds the Maximum Rate or the Maximum Amount, Borrowers and Lender shall, to the maximum extent permitted under applicable Law (w) treat all Loans as a single extension of credit (Lender and Borrowers agree that such is the case), (x) characterize any non-principal payment as an expense, fee or premium rather than as interest, (y) exclude voluntary prepayments or repayments and their effects, and (z) amortize, prorate, allocate and spread the total amount of interest throughout the entire contemplated term of the Obligation.  However, if the Obligation is paid in full before the end of its full contemplated term, and if the interest received for its actual period of existence exceeds the Maximum Rate or the Maximum Amount, Lender shall refund any excess (and Lender may not, to the extent permitted by Law, be subject to any penalties provided by any Laws for contracting for, charging, taking, reserving or receiving interest in excess of the Maximum Amount).  If the Laws of the State of Texas are applicable for purposes of determining the “Maximum Rate” or the “Maximum Amount,” the “Maximum Rate” may not exceed the “weekly ceiling” from time to time in effect under Chapter 303 of the Texas Finance Code.  If the applicable Law is amended in the future to allow a greater rate of interest to be charged under this Agreement than is presently allowed by applicable Law, then the “Maximum Rate” shall be increased to the maximum rate of interest allowed by applicable Law as amended, which increase shall be effective hereunder on the effective date of such amendment, to the extent permitted by applicable Law.  Borrowers agree that Chapter 346 of the Texas Finance Code (which regulates certain revolving credit loan accounts and revolving tri-party accounts), does not apply to the Obligation, other than § 346.004.

- 28 -

3.8    Status of Lenders and Treatment of Certain Refunds.  
(a)    Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Company, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Company, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Company as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding.  In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Company, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Company as will enable the Company to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 3.8(b)(i), (ii) or (iv) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.  
(b)    Without limiting the generality of the foregoing in the event that any Borrower is a U.S. Borrower:
(i)    any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Company on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender hereunder (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Company), executed originals of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax; 
(ii)    any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Company (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender hereunder (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Company), whichever of the following is applicable:
(A)    in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;
(B)    executed originals of IRS Form W-8ECI;
(C)    in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Tax Code, (x) a 

- 29 -

certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit L-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Tax Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of any U.S. Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Tax Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Tax Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN; or
(D)    to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed originals of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit L-2 or Exhibit L-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit L-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;
(iii)    any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Company (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender hereunder (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Company), executed originals of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Company to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and
(iv)    if a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Tax Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Company at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Company such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Tax Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Company as may be necessary for the Borrowers to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Person’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment.  Solely for purposes of this clause (F), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date hereof.
Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or 

- 30 -

certification or promptly notify the Company in writing of its legal inability to do so.
(c)    Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of, or credit with respect to, any Taxes as to which a Borrower has paid an additional amount under Section 3.1(b), it shall pay to such Borrower an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of additional payments made under Section 3.1(b) with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund).  Such Borrower, upon the request of the party who has received the refund, shall repay to such party the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (c) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (c), in no event will the party who receives a refund of Tax pursuant to this paragraph (c) be required to pay any amount to a Borrower pursuant to this paragraph (c) the payment of which would place the party receiving the refund in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the party would have been in if the Tax giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid.  This paragraph shall not be construed to require any party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the Borrowers or any other Person.]
Section 4    Fees and Expenses.
4.1    Treatment of Fees and Expenses.  To the extent permitted by Law, the fees and expenses described in this Section 4 (a) do not constitute compensation for the use, detention, or forbearance of money, (b) are in addition to, and not in lieu of, interest and expenses otherwise described in this Agreement, (c) are payable in accordance with Section 3.1(b), (d) are non‐refundable, (e) accrue interest, if not paid when due, at the Default Rate, and (f) are calculated on the basis of actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day), but computed as if each calendar year consisted of 360 days (unless computation would result in an interest rate in excess of the Maximum Rate or interest in excess of the Maximum Amount, in which event the computation is made on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be); provided, that the fees described in this Section 4 are in all events subject to the provisions of Section 3.7.
4.2    Application and Closing Fees.  
(j)    Initial Term Loan.  On the Closing Date, Borrowers shall pay to Lender (i) an application fee in an amount equal to $90,000, which is equal to one percent (1.0%) of the Initial Term Loan, and (ii) a closing fee in an amount equal to $135,000, which is equal to one and one-half of one percent (1.5%) of the Initial Term Loan.  Lender may in its sole discretion elect to deduct such fees from the Initial Term Loan.

- 31 -

(k)    Additional Term Loan.  On the Loan Date for any Additional Term Loan, Borrowers shall pay to Lender (i) an application fee in an amount equal to one percent (1.0%) of the amount of such Additional Term Loan, and (ii) a closing fee in an amount equal to one and one-half of one percent (1.5%) of the Additional Term Loan.  Lender may in its sole discretion elect to deduct such fees from the applicable Loan.
(l)    Revolving Loan.  
(i)    On the Closing Date, Borrowers shall pay to Lender an commitment fee with respect to the Revolving Loan in an amount equal to $10,000, which is equal to one-half of one percent (0.50%) of the Revolving Loan Commitment.  In addition, on the Loan Date for any Revolving Loan, Borrowers shall pay to Lender a closing fee in an amount equal to one percent (1.0%) of the amount of each draw under the Revolving Credit Facility that represents an increase above the highest amount previously outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility, with a maximum total fee payment of $20,000 over the life of the Revolving Credit Facility, which is equal to one percent (1.0%) of the Revolving Loan Commitment.  Agent may in its sole discretion elect to request that Lenders deduct such fees from the applicable Loan.
(ii)    Beginning November 1, 2013 and continuing until the Revolving Loan Principal Debt is paid in full and the Revolving Loan Commitment has been terminated or has expired, Borrowers shall pay to Lender an unused commitment fee monthly in arrears equal to 0.375% per annum times the actual daily amount by which the Revolving Loan Commitment exceeds the Revolving Loan Principal Debt for the prior month (or portion thereof).  Borrowers shall execute and deliver the ACH Authorization Agreements on the Closing Date and shall make, or cause to be made, payments of such fee when due by ACH transfer or automatic debit from Borrowers’ accounts into Lender’s accounts as designated on attached Schedule 1 or such other accounts as Borrowers and Lender may agree in writing. All unpaid fees accrued under this Section 4.2(c) are due and payable on the Revolving Loan Maturity Date.

8.4    Taxes.  Each Borrower will promptly pay and discharge when due any and all of its federal and other material Taxes, other than Taxes that are being contested in good faith by lawful proceedings diligently conducted, against which reserves or other provisions required by GAAP have been made, and in respect of which levy and execution of any Lien are stayed.

For the purposes of this Section 8.4, a Tax is “material” if it could reasonably be expected to result in a liability to any Borrower in excess of $50,000.

(c)    EACH INDEMNIFIED PARTY SHALL BE INDEMNIFIED UNDER THE TERMS OF THE LOAN DOCUMENTS FOR ITS OWN ORDINARY NEGLIGENCE (WHETHER SOLE, JOINT OR CONCURRENT); HOWEVER, NO BORROWER IS OBLIGATED TO INDEMNIFY ANY INDEMNIFIED PARTY UNDER THE LOAN DOCUMENTS TO THE EXTENT A CLAIM IS FOUND IN A FINAL, NON-APPEALABLE JUDGMENT BY A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION TO HAVE RESULTED PRIMARILY FROM ANY INDEMNIFIED PARTY’S GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT.

AMOUNTS PAYABLE UNDER THIS SECTION SHALL BE A PART OF THE OBLIGATION AND, IF NOT PAID UPON DEMAND, SHALL BEAR INTEREST AT THE DEFAULT RATE UNTIL PAID.
8.7    Maintenance of Existence, Assets, and Business.  Except as otherwise permitted by Section 9.6, each Borrower will (a) preserve and maintain its existence and good standing in its jurisdiction of organization and its authority to transact business and good standing in all other jurisdictions where the nature and extent of its business and properties require due qualification and good standing except where the failure to so qualify would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Event; (b) maintain all licenses, permits and franchises necessary for its business where failure to do so is a Material Adverse Event; and (c) keep all of its assets that are useful in and necessary to its business in good working order and condition (ordinary wear and tear excepted) and make all necessary repairs and replacements.  Each Borrower shall (i) perform all of such Borrower’s duties under and in connection with each transaction to which any of its accounts receivable, accounts, or contracts relates, so that the amounts thereof (net of any reserves established 

- 53 -

in the ordinary course of business in respect of such accounts receivable, accounts, or contracts) shall actually become payable in their entirety to such Borrower, (ii) maintain and store all its inventory with reasonable care, skill, and caution and repair and otherwise keep the same in good condition, and (iii) not relocate such Borrower’s chief executive office (or the location of such Borrower’s books and records related to accounts) or any of such Borrower’s inventory, to a county, parish, or state other than those listed on Schedule 7.13 unless such Borrower gives Lender twenty (20) days prior written notice of such proposed relocation (such notice to include the address with the name of the county or parish and state of the new location).
8.8    Insurance.
(a)    Borrowers shall maintain insurance with financially sound, responsible and reputable insurance companies or associations (or, as to workers’ compensation or similar insurance, with an insurance fund or by self-insurance authorized by the jurisdictions in which it operates) that possess a minimum A.M. Best Financial Strength Rating of B+ or better in such amounts and against such risks as is (i) required by all applicable Laws, (ii) customarily maintained by similar businesses operating in the same geographic region, and (iii) with respect to the Borrower Collateral, reasonably acceptable to Agent.
(b)    At a minimum, Borrowers’ insurance must include (i) the Key Man Life Insurance, (ii) business interruption insurance, (iii) fire, property damage and extended coverage insurance covering all assets and naming Agent as mortgagee or loss payee, as applicable, (iv) workers compensation insurance and (v) public liability insurance naming Agent as an additional insured as its interest may appear, and, with respect to each such insurance policy, providing for at least thirty (30) days prior notice to Agent of any cancellation thereof.  Satisfactory evidence of such insurance must be supplied to Agent on the Closing Date and at least five (5) days prior to each policy renewal at Agent’s request.
(c)    Borrowers shall execute and deliver to Agent collateral assignments, in form and substance satisfactory to Agent, of each business interruption insurance policy maintained by Borrowers.  With regard to workers’ compensation insurance, nothing contained in this Section 8.8 shall prohibit Borrowers from becoming a non-subscriber with the prior written consent of Agent.
(d)    Unless the Borrowers provide Agent with evidence of the continuing insurance coverage required by this Agreement, Agent may purchase insurance at the Borrowers’ expense to protect Agent’s interests in the Borrower Collateral.  This insurance may, but need not, protect the Borrowers’ interests.  The coverage that Agent purchases may, but need not, pay any claim that is made against any Borrower in connection with the Borrower Collateral.  Borrowers may later cancel any insurance purchased by Agent, but only after providing Agent with evidence that Borrowers have obtained the insurance coverage required by this Agreement.  If Agent purchases insurance for the Borrower Collateral as set forth above, Borrowers will be responsible for the costs of that insurance, including interest and any other charges that may be imposed with the placement of the insurance, until the effective date of the cancellation or expiration of the insurance, and the costs of the insurance may be added to the principal amount of the Loans owing hereunder.

8.9    Further Assurances.
(a)    Each Borrower shall cause each of its Subsidiaries created or acquired after the Closing Date, within five (5) days of such Subsidiary’s creation or acquisition by such Borrower, to execute a joinder to this Agreement, substantially in the form of Exhibit H hereto, agreeing to become a Borrower under this Agreement, a “Pledgor” under the Borrower Pledge Agreement, a “Debtor” under the Security Agreement and a “Maker” under the Notes (a “Joinder Agreement”).

Because Borrowers agree that Agent’s and the Lenders’ remedies at Law for failure of Borrowers to comply with the provisions of this section would be inadequate and that failure would not be adequately compensable in damages, Borrowers agree that the covenants of this Section 8.9 may be specifically enforced.
8.10    Compliance with Laws; Environmental and Safety Laws.  Each Borrower shall conduct its business so as to comply, in all material respects, with all applicable Laws (including all applicable Environmental and Safety Laws), and shall promptly take corrective action to remedy any violation of any Law (including any Environmental and Safety Law of which it is aware), and shall immediately notify Lender of any claims or demands by any Governmental Authority or Person with respect to any Law (including any Environmental and Safety Law) or Hazardous Substance if Borrowers reasonably anticipate that such action will result in liability (whether individually or in the aggregate) in excess of $100,000, not fully covered by insurance and subject to normal deductibles.
8.11    Expenses.  In addition to the pre-closing out-of-pocket expenses set forth in the Commitment Letter and the fees set forth in Section 4, Borrowers shall promptly pay upon demand (a) all reasonable costs, fees and expenses paid or incurred by Agent or any Lender in connection with the arrangement, syndication and negotiation of the credit facilities evidenced by the Loan Documents and the negotiation, preparation, delivery and execution of the Loan Documents (including those incurred under Section 6) and any related or subsequent amendment, waiver, or consent (including in each case, without limitation, the reasonable fees and expenses of Agent’s and each Lender’s counsel), (b) all reasonable due diligence, closing, and post-closing costs including filing fees, recording costs, lien searches, corporate due diligence, third-party expenses, appraisals, title insurance, environmental surveys, and other related due diligence, closing and post-closing costs and expenses, (c) all costs, fees and expenses of Agent and each Lender incurred in connection with the interpretation and enforcement of the obligations of the Borrowers arising under 

- 55 -

the Loan Documents or the exercise of any rights arising under the Loan Documents (including without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, expenses and costs paid or incurred in connection with any negotiation, workout, or restructure and any action taken in connection with any Debtor Relief Laws), (d) all costs, fees and expenses incurred by Agent and each Lender or any of their respective designees in the performance of such designees’ duties as members of the Board of Directors of any Borrower, and (e) all stamp or other similar documentary or recording Taxes which may be payable in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or the performance of any transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, all of which shall be a part of the Obligation and shall accrue interest, if not paid upon demand, at the Default Rate until repaid.  All Obligations provided for in this Section 8.11 shall survive repayment of the Loans, cancellation of the Notes and termination of this Agreement.
8.12    Application of Insurance Proceeds, Eminent Domain, Proceeds and Conditions to Disbursement.
(a)    Agent, Lenders and each Borrower agree that all Insurance Proceeds shall, except as otherwise provided in subsections (b) and (c) below, be paid by the insurers directly to Agent (as loss payee or additional insured, as applicable) for the ratable benefit of Agent and the Lenders.  Each Borrower shall cause all Eminent Domain Proceeds to be paid by the condemning Governmental Authority directly to Agent for the ratable benefit of Agent and the Lenders.  Except as otherwise provided in subsections (b) and (c) below, if any Insurance Proceeds or Eminent Domain Proceeds are paid to any Borrower, such Insurance Proceeds or Eminent Domain Proceeds shall be received only in trust for Agent, shall be segregated from other funds of the Borrowers and shall promptly be paid over to Agent in the same form as received (with any necessary endorsement).

(q)    If a Default exists under Section 11.3, the entire unpaid balance of the Obligation automatically becomes due and payable without any action of any kind.
(r)    If a Default exists, Agent and Lenders may do any one or more of the following:  (i) if the maturity of the Obligation has not already been accelerated under Section 12.1(a), declare the entire unpaid balance of all or any part of the Obligation immediately due and payable; (ii) reduce any claim to judgment; and (iii) exercise any and all other legal or equitable rights afforded by the Loan Documents, the Laws of the State of Texas or the Laws of any other applicable jurisdiction.
12.2    Borrower Waivers.  To the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, each Borrower waives diligence, presentment and demand for payment, protest, notice of intent to accelerate, notice of acceleration and notice of protest, demand, dishonor and nonpayment, and agrees that its liability with respect to all or any part of the Obligation is not affected by any renewal or extension in the time of payment of all or any part of the Obligation, by any indulgence, or by any release or change in any security for the payment of all or any part of the Obligation.
12.3    Performance by Agent.  If any covenant, duty or agreement of any Borrower is not performed in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents, Agent may, while a Default or Potential Default exists, at its option, perform or attempt to perform that covenant, duty or agreement on behalf of that Borrower (and any amount reasonably expended by Agent in its performance or attempted performance is payable by the Borrowers, jointly and severally, to Agent on demand, becomes part of the Obligation, and bears interest at the Default Rate from the date of Agent’s expenditure until paid).  However, Agent does not assume, except by its express written consent, any liability or responsibility for the performance of any covenant, duty or agreement of any Borrower.
12.4    Not in Control.  None of the covenants or other provisions contained in any Loan Document shall, or shall be deemed to, give Agent or any Lender the right to exercise control over the assets (including, without limitation, real property), affairs, or management of any Borrower (other than control for Lien perfection purposes); the power of Agent and Lenders is limited to the right to exercise the remedies provided in this Section 12.
12.5    Course of Dealing.  The acceptance by Agent or any Lender of any partial payment on the Obligation shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any Default then existing.  No waiver by Agent or any Lender of any Default shall be deemed to be a waiver of any other then-existing or subsequent Default or Potential Default.  No delay or omission by Agent or any Lender in exercising any right under the Loan Documents will impair that right or be construed as a waiver thereof or any acquiescence therein, nor will any single or partial exercise of any right preclude other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right.
12.6    Cumulative Rights.  All rights available to Agent and Lenders under the Loan Documents are cumulative of and in addition to all other rights granted to Agent and Lenders at law or in equity, whether or not the Obligation is due and payable and whether or not Agent or any 

- 65 -

Lender has instituted any suit for collection, foreclosure, or other action in connection with the Loan Documents.
12.7    Application of Proceeds.  Any and all proceeds received by Agent or any Lender from the exercise of any rights and remedies pertaining to the Obligation shall be applied to the Obligation in accordance with Section 3.3.

Section 13    Agent.

(h)    shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Lenders or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct.  Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default or Potential Default unless and until written notice describing such Default or Potential Default is given to Agent by Borrowers or a Lender.  Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set out herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default or Potential Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set out in Section 5 or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to Agent.
13.4    Reliance by Agent.  Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person.  Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for

relying thereon.  In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender, Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender unless Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender prior to the making of such Loan.  Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for one or more Borrowers), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.
13.5    Delegation of Duties.  Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by Agent.  Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Affiliates.  The exculpatory provisions of this Section shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Affiliates of Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Agent.
13.6    Resignation; Removal of Agent.
(a)    Agent may at any time give written notice of its resignation to Lenders.  Agent may also be removed at any time, with or without cause, by the affirmative vote of Lenders holding a majority of the Percentage Interests.
(b)    Upon the resignation or removal of Agent pursuant to this Section 13.6, Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with Borrower, to appoint, by vote of a majority of the Percentage Interests, a successor, which may be any other Lender or any other Person selected by vote of Lenders holding majority of the Percentage Interests.  If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the resignation or removal of the Agent, then the resigning or removed Agent (the “Retiring Agent”) may, on behalf of Lenders, appoint a successor Agent meeting the qualifications set out above; provided that if Agent shall notify a Borrower and the Lenders that no qualifying Person has accepted such appointment, then such resignation or removal shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice and (i) the Retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except that in the case of any collateral security held by the Retiring Agent on behalf of the Lenders under any of the Loan Documents, the Retiring Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor Agent is appointed) and (ii) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender directly, until such time as the Lenders appoint a successor Agent as provided for above in this Section.
(c)    Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the “Agent”, under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and the Retiring Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section).  After the Retiring Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder and under the other Loan 

- 68 -

Documents, the provisions of this Section and Section 8.6 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such Retiring Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Affiliates in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the Retiring Agent was acting as Agent.
13.7    Non-Reliance on Agent and Other Lenders.  Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon Agent or any other Lender or any of their respective Affiliates 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 Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon Agent or any other Lender or any of their respective Affiliates and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.
13.8    No Other Duties, Etc.  Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, no Lender shall have any duties or responsibilities under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, except in its capacity, as applicable, as Agent, Lender or both.
13.9    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 Borrower, 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 Agent shall have made any demand on any Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:
(c)    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 Lenders and Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of Lenders and Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due Lenders and Agent under Sections 8.6 and 8.11) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and
(d)    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 Agent and to pay to Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due Agent under Sections 8.6 and 8.11.  Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize 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 Obligation or the rights of any Lender or to authorize Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender in any such proceeding.

- 69 -

13.10    Collateral Matters.
(f)    Each Lender hereby authorizes and directs Agent to enter into the Security Documents for the benefit of such Lender.  Each Lender hereby agrees, and each holder of any Note by the acceptance thereof will be deemed to agree, that, except as otherwise set out in Section 14.8, any action taken by the Agent, in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or the Security Documents, and the exercise by Agent of the powers set out herein or therein, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be authorized and binding upon all of the Lenders.  Agent is hereby authorized (but not obligated) on behalf of all of the Lenders, without the necessity of any notice to or further consent from any Lender from time to time, to take any action with respect to any Collateral or Security Documents which may be necessary to perfect and maintain perfected the Liens upon the Collateral granted pursuant to the Security Documents.
(g)    Each Lender hereby authorizes Agent, at its option and in its discretion,
(i)    to release any Lien on any property granted to or held by Agent under any Loan Document (A) upon termination of the Term Loan Commitment and the Revolving Loan Commitment and payment in full of all of the Obligation (other than contingent indemnification obligations), (B) that is sold or to be sold as part of or in connection with any sale permitted hereunder or under any other Loan Document, (C) subject to Section 14.8, if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Lenders, or (D) in connection with any foreclosure sale or other disposition of Collateral after the occurrence of a Default; and
(ii)    to subordinate any Lien on any property granted to or held by Agent under any Loan Document to the holder of any Lien on such property that is permitted by this Agreement or any other Loan Document.
Upon request by Agent at any time, each Lender will confirm in writing Agent’s authority to release or subordinate its interest in particular types or items of Collateral pursuant to this Section 13.10.
(h)    Subject to subsection (b) above, Agent shall (and is hereby authorized by each Lender to) execute such documents as may be necessary to evidence the release or subordination of the Liens granted to Agent for the benefit of Agent and Lenders herein or pursuant to this Agreement upon the applicable Collateral; provided that (i) Agent shall not be required to execute any such document on terms which, in Agent’s opinion, would expose Agent to or create any liability or entail any consequence other than the release or subordination of such Liens without recourse or warranty and (ii) such release or subordination shall not in any manner discharge, affect or impair the Obligation or any Liens upon any interests retained by Borrowers or any other Person, including the proceeds of the sale, all of which shall continue to constitute part of the Collateral.  In the event of any sale or transfer of Collateral, or any foreclosure with respect to any of the Collateral, Agent shall be authorized to deduct all expenses reasonably incurred by Agent from the proceeds of any such sale, transfer or foreclosure.

- 70 -

(i)    Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to any Lender or any other Person to ensure that the Collateral exists or is owned by a Borrower or any other Person or is cared for, protected or insured or that the Liens granted to Agent herein or in any of the Security Documents or pursuant to this Agreement or thereto have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected or enforced or are entitled to any particular priority, or to exercise or to continue exercising at all or in any manner or under any duty of care, disclosure or fidelity any of the rights, authorities and powers granted or available to Agent in this Section 13.10 or in any of the Security Documents, it being understood and agreed that in respect of the Collateral, or any act, omission or event related thereto, Agent may act in any manner it may deem appropriate, in its sole discretion, given Agent’s own interest in the Collateral as one of Lenders and that Agent shall have no duty or liability whatsoever to the Lenders.
(j)    Each Lender hereby appoints Agent and each other Lender as agent for the purpose of perfecting such Lender’s security interest in assets which, in accordance with Article 9 of the UCC can be perfected only by possession.  Should any Lender (other than Agent) obtain possession of any such Collateral, such Lender shall notify Agent thereof and, promptly upon Agent’s request therefor, shall deliver such Collateral to Agent or in accordance with Agent’s instructions.
Section 14    Miscellaneous.
14.1    Headings.  The headings and captions used in the Loan Documents are for convenience only and will not be deemed to define, affect, limit, amplify or modify the meaning, interpretation or scope of any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement or of any of the other Loan Documents.
14.2    Non-Business Days.  Any payment or action that is due under any Loan Document on a non-Business Day shall be made or performed on the immediately preceding Business Day.
14.3    Communications.  Unless otherwise provided, any consent, notice, or other communication under or in connection with any Loan Document must be in writing to be effective and shall be deemed to have been given (a) if by facsimile, when transmitted to the appropriate facsimile number, with confirmation of transmission, (b) if by mail, on the third Business Day after it is enclosed in an envelope and properly addressed, stamped, sealed, certified return receipt requested, and deposited in the appropriate official postal service, or (c) if by electronic mail or any other means, when actually received or delivered (with respect to electronic mail, each party giving such notice shall be responsible for keeping records acceptable to Agent and Lenders regarding all such notices).  Until changed by notice pursuant to this Agreement, the address (and facsimile number) for each party is set out on Schedule 1.  Any notice or other delivery required to be made to Agent or Lenders under this Agreement shall be delivered to Agent and each Lender.
14.4    Survival.  Unless otherwise provided, all covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made in this Agreement and any of the other Loan Documents shall survive and continue in effect as long as the commitment by any Lender hereunder is in effect or the Obligation is outstanding; provided that the indemnities set out in Section 8.6 and their terms and provisions 

- 71 -

shall survive the satisfaction and payment of the Obligation and the termination of this Agreement and each Lender’s commitment hereunder.
14.5    Governing Law.  This Agreement and each Loan Document shall be a contract made under and governed by the internal laws of the State of Texas applicable to contracts made and to be performed entirely within such state, without regard to conflict of law principles.
14.6    Invalid Provisions.  If any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, (a) the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not be affected or impaired thereby and (b) the parties shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic and legal effect of which comes as close as possible to the intent of the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions.  The invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.
14.7    Multiple Counterparts.
(e)    Each Loan Document may be executed in several counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which shall constitute one and the same instrument, and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each of the parties and delivered to the other parties; it being understood that all parties need not sign the same counterpart.
(f)    The exchange of copies of any Loan Document and of signature pages to any Loan Document by facsimile transmission (whether directly from one facsimile device to another by means of a dial-up connection or whether mediated by the worldwide web), by electronic mail in “portable document format” (“pdf”) form, or by any other electronic means intended to preserve the original graphic and pictorial appearance of a document, or by combination of such means, shall constitute effective execution and delivery of such Loan Document as to the parties thereto and may be used in lieu of the original Loan Document for all purposes.  Signatures of the parties transmitted by facsimile shall be deemed to be their original signatures for all purposes.
14.8    Amendments; Conflicts; Successors and Assigns; Participations.
(e)    The Loan Documents may be amended, modified, supplemented or be the subject of a waiver only by a writing executed by Lenders and Borrowers.  Any conflict or ambiguity between this Agreement and any other Loan Document is controlled by the terms and provisions of this Agreement.  This Agreement is binding upon, and inures to the benefit of, the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns.
(f)    Upon prior written notice to the Company, any Lender may assign all or any portion of its Notes and its other rights and obligations under this Agreement.  The Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrowers, shall maintain at one of its offices in the United States a copy of each assignment delivered to it and a register for the recordation 

- 72 -

of the names and addresses of the Lenders and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of the Loans owing to each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”).  The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Borrowers, the Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement.  The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.
(g)    Any Lender may, at any time, sell to one or more Persons (each a “Participant”) participating interests in its portion of the Obligation, provided that, (i) such Lender remains the holder of the Principal Debt, (ii) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement remain unchanged and such Lender remains solely responsible for the performance of those obligations, and (iii) each Borrower continues to deal solely and directly with such Lender regarding the Loan Documents.  Each Lender is entitled to obtain (on behalf of its Participants) the benefits of Sections 2 and 3 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 3.8(a) and 3.8(b) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 3.8(a) and (b) shall be delivered to the participating Lender)), but no Lender may sell any participating interest under which a Participant has any rights under the Loan Documents, except the right to approve amendments, modifications, or waivers of any Loan Document which (1) extend the due date for payment of any principal, interest, or fees due under the Loan Documents, (2) reduce the interest rate or the amount of principal or fees applicable to the Obligation, (3) postpone any date fixed for the payment of any scheduled installment of principal or interest on the Loans or any fees or other amounts payable under this Agreement, or for termination of the Loans, or (4) release all or substantially all of the Collateral.  For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this subsection (c) shall limit, modify, prohibit or otherwise affect in any way each Lender’s rights to assign all or any portion of its Notes and its other rights and obligations under this Agreement pursuant to subsection (b) above.  Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrowers, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant's interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the U.S. Treasury Regulations.  The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and each Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.  For the avoidance of doubt, Agent (in its capacity as Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

- 73 -

(h)    Any Lender may furnish any information concerning the Borrowers in its possession from time to time to assignees and Participants (including prospective assignees and Participants).
(i)    To facilitate any assignment or participation, Borrowers shall, from time to time at the request of any Lender, execute and deliver to such Lender or to such party or parties as such Lender may designate, any and all further instruments as may in the reasonable opinion of such Lender be necessary or advisable to give full force and effect to any transfer contemplated by this Section 14.8.
(j)    No Borrower may assign or transfer its rights or obligations hereunder or any interest herein or delegate its duties or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of Agent and each of the Lenders.
14.9    Term.  This Agreement will stay in effect until the later to occur of all Principal Debt and accrued interest under the Loans has been repaid in full and the Loans and all other Obligations cease to remain outstanding.
14.10    Marshaling; Discharge Only Upon Payment in Full; Reinstatement in Certain Circumstances.  Neither Agent nor any Lender shall be under any obligation to marshal any assets in favor of any Borrower or any other Person or against or in payment of any or all of the Obligation hereunder.  Except as otherwise provided herein, each Borrower’s obligations under the Loan Documents remain in full force and effect until the Obligation is paid in full (except for provisions under the Loan Documents which by their terms expressly survive payment of the Obligation and termination of the Loan Documents).  If at any time any payment of the principal of or interest on the Loans or any other amount payable by any Borrower or any other obligor on the Obligation under any Loan Document is rescinded or must be restored or returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any Borrower or otherwise, the obligations of each Borrower under the Loan Documents with respect to that payment shall be reinstated as though the payment had been due but not made at that time.
14.11    Arbitration.  Agent, each Lender, and each Borrower agree that upon the written demand of either party, whether made before or after the institution of any legal proceedings, but prior to the rendering of any judgment in that proceeding, all disputes, claims, and controversies between them, whether individual, joint, or class in nature, arising from this Agreement, the Loan Documents, or otherwise, including without limitation contract disputes and tort claims, shall be resolved by binding arbitration pursuant to the Commercial Rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”).  Any arbitration proceeding held pursuant to this arbitration provision shall be conducted in Houston, Texas, or at any other place selected by mutual agreement of the parties.  No act to take or dispose of any Collateral shall constitute a waiver of this Section 14.11 agreement or be prohibited by this Section 14.11.  This arbitration provision shall not limit the right of either party during any dispute, claim or controversy to seek, use, and employ ancillary, or preliminary rights and/or remedies, judicial or otherwise, for the purposes of realizing upon, preserving, protecting, foreclosing upon or proceeding under forcible entry and detainer for possession of, any real or personal property, and any such action shall not be deemed an election of remedies. Such remedies include, without limitation, obtaining injunctive relief or a temporary restraining order, 

- 74 -

invoking a power of sale under any deed of trust or mortgage, obtaining a writ of attachment or imposition of a receivership, or exercising any rights relating to personal property, including exercising the right of set-off, or taking or disposing of such property with or without judicial process pursuant to the UCC.  Any disputes, claims or controversies concerning the lawfulness or reasonableness of an act, or exercise of any right or remedy concerning any Collateral, including any claim to rescind, reform, or otherwise modify any agreement relating to the Collateral, shall also be arbitrated; provided that, no arbitrator shall have the right or the power to enjoin or restrain any act of either party.  Judgment upon any award rendered by any arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction.  The statute of limitations, estoppel, waiver, laches and similar doctrines which would otherwise be applicable in an action brought by a party shall be applicable in any arbitration proceeding, and the commencement of an arbitration proceeding shall be deemed the commencement of any action for these purposes. The Federal Arbitration Act (Title 9 of the United States Code) shall apply to the construction, interpretation, and enforcement of this arbitration provision.
14.12    No Implied Waivers; Cumulative Remedies; Writing Required.  No delay or failure of Agent or any Lender in exercising any right, power or remedy hereunder shall affect or operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right, power or remedy preclude any further exercise thereof or any other right, power or remedy.  The rights and remedies hereunder of Agent and the Lenders are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies which they would otherwise have.  Any waiver, permit, consent or approval of any kind or character on the part of Agent or any Lender of any breach or default under this Agreement or any such waiver of any provision or condition of this Agreement must be in writing and shall be effective only to the extent specifically set forth in such writing.
14.13    Electronic Submissions.  Upon not less than thirty (30) days’ prior written notice (the “Approved Electronic Form Notice”), Agent and Lenders may permit or require that any of the documents, certificates, forms, deliveries or other communications, authorized, required or contemplated by this Agreement or the other Loan Documents be submitted to Agent and Lenders in Approved Electronic Form (as hereafter defined), subject to any reasonable terms, conditions and requirements in the applicable Approved Electronic Forms Notice.  For purposes hereof “Electronic Form” means e-mail, e-mail attachments, data submitted on web-based forms or any other communication method that delivers machine readable data or information to Agent and Lenders, and “Approved Electronic Form” means an Electronic Form that has been approved in writing by Agent and Lenders (which approval has not been revoked or modified by Lender) and sent to Borrowers in an Approved Electronic Form Notice.  Except as otherwise specifically provided in the applicable Approved Electronic Form Notice, any submissions made in an applicable Approved Electronic Form shall have the same force and effect that the same submissions would have had if they had been submitted in any other applicable form authorized, required or contemplated by this Agreement or the other Loan Documents
14.14    Jury Waiver.  AGENT, LENDERS AND BORROWERS HEREBY VOLUNTARILY, KNOWINGLY, IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO HAVE A JURY PARTICIPATE IN RESOLVING ANY DISPUTE

THE SCOPE OF EACH OF THE FOREGOING CONSENTS AND WAIVERS IS INTENDED TO BE ALL-ENCOMPASSING OF ANY AND ALL DISPUTES THAT MAY BE FILED IN ANY COURT AND THAT RELATE TO THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THIS TRANSACTION, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, CONTRACT CLAIMS, TORT CLAIMS, BREACH OF DUTY CLAIMS, AND ALL OTHER COMMON LAW AND STATUTORY CLAIMS.  EACH BORROWER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THESE CONSENTS AND WAIVERS ARE A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT TO AGENT’S AND EACH LENDER’S AGREEMENT TO ENTER INTO A BUSINESS RELATIONSHIP, THAT AGENT AND LENDERS HAVE ALREADY RELIED ON THESE CONSENTS AND WAIVERS IN ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT, AND THAT AGENT AND LENDERS WILL CONTINUE TO RELY ON EACH OF THESE CONSENTS AND WAIVERS IN RELATED FUTURE DEALINGS.  EACH BORROWER FURTHER WARRANTS AND REPRESENTS THAT IT HAS REVIEWED THESE CONSENTS AND WAIVERS WITH ITS LEGAL COUNSEL, AND THAT IT KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY AGREES TO EACH CONSENT AND WAIVER FOLLOWING CONSULTATION WITH LEGAL COUNSEL.

- 76 -

IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, THIS AGREEMENT MAY BE FILED AS A WRITTEN CONSENT TO A TRIAL BY THE COURT.
14.16    Marketing and Disclosure Rights of Lenders.  Each Borrower hereby grants Agent and each Lender the right to divulge such Borrower’s name and a brief description of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including such information as is normally and customarily provided in tombstone advertisements, on Agent’s or any Lender’s internet website, in Agent’s or any Lender’s newsletter or in any of Agent’s or any Lender’s other marketing materials; provided, that neither Agent nor any Lender shall divulge any non-public information about the financial condition of the Borrowers in any such advertisements.  Each Borrower also grants Agent and each Lender the right to divulge all material aspects of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to Agent’s and each Lender’s lenders, partners, affiliates and potential investors, subject to Agent’s and Lenders’ obligations to instruct such Persons to maintain the confidentiality of such information.
