        WHEREAS,
to secure Borrower's obligations under the Loan Documents Borrower is granting to Agent, for the benefit of Agent and Lenders, a security interest in and lien upon certain of

        NOW,
THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the agreements, provisions and covenants herein contained, Borrower, Agent and Lenders agree as follows: 

SECTION
1. DEFINITIONS AND ACCOUNTING TERMS

        1.1   Certain Defined Terms. The capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this Agreement and the accounting terms used in
this Agreement shall have the meanings set forth in Section 11 of this Agreement: 

SECTION
2. LOANS AND COLLATERAL

        2.1   Loans. 

        (A)  [Intentionally
Omitted] 

        (B)  Revolving Loan. Each Lender, severally, agrees to lend to Borrower from time to time its Pro Rata Share of each advance
under the Revolving Loan Commitment. The aggregate amount of the Revolving Loan Commitment shall not exceed at any time $100,000,000.00. Amounts borrowed under this subsection
2.1(B) may be repaid and reborrowed at any time prior to the earlier of (i) the termination of the Revolving Loan Commitment pursuant to  subsection 8.3 or (ii) the
Termination Date. Except as otherwise provided herein, no Lender shall have any obligation to make a Revolving Advance
to the extent such Revolving Advance would cause the Revolving Loan (after giving effect to any immediate application of the proceeds thereof) to exceed the Maximum Revolving Loan Amount. 

        "Maximum
Revolving Loan Amount" means, as of any date of determination, the lesser of (a) the Revolving Loan Commitments of all Lenders  less the sum of the Letter of Credit Reserve and the Swingline Loan
and (b) the Borrowing Base  less the sum of the Letter of Credit Reserve and the Swingline Loan. 

        "Borrowing
Base" means, as of any date of determination, an amount equal to the sum of (a) 85.00% of Eligible Accounts less Dilution Reserves,  plus (b) 50.00% of Eligible Accrued Unbilled Accounts less

(c) the lesser of (i) $30,000,000, or (ii) 85.00% of the net orderly liquidation value of Eligible Inventory (net orderly
liquidation value to be determined in a manner and pursuant to documentation satisfactory to Agent, in its reasonable credit judgment) or (iii) 50.00% of Eligible Inventory,  plus (c)
 the lesser of (i) the Unsecured Senior Notes Permitted Liens Limitation or
(ii) (A) the lesser of (1) $20,000,000, or (2) 85.00% of the net orderly liquidation value of Eligible Field Spare Parts
(net orderly liquidation value to be determined in a manner and pursuant to documentation satisfactory to Agent, in its reasonable credit judgment), or (3) 50.00% of Eligible Field Spare Parts,  plus (B) the Real Property Advance Amount and less, in each case, such reserves as Agent in its reasonable credit judgment may elect to
establish. "Dilution Reserve" means, as of any date of determination, a reserve for the amount 

 

by
which the total dilution of Accounts exceeds five percent (5%); with dilution referring to all actual and potential offsets to an Account, including, without limitation, customer payment and/or
volume discounts, write-offs, credit memoranda, returns and allowances, and billing errors. The Dilution Reserve shall be adjusted after each field examination audit of the Collateral
conducted by Agent or any authorized representative designated by Agent. 

        (C)  [Intentionally
Omitted] 

        (D)  Eligible Collateral. 

        "Accrued
Unbilled Account" means any unbilled Account generated in the ordinary course of Borrower's business which (i) pursuant to GAAP Borrower has completed the work regarding
and has earned the right for payment of, but the amount of which Borrower has not yet invoiced, and (ii) on the records of Borrower the amount of which until invoiced is credited to revenue
with the amount of the unbilled Account debited, with such entries being reversed upon the invoicing of such Account. 

        "Eligible
Accounts" means, as at any date of determination, the aggregate of all Accounts that Agent, in its reasonable credit judgment, deems to be eligible for borrowing purposes.

(120) days after the date of issuance;

        (12) Accounts

other state denying creditors access to its courts in the absence of a Notice of Business Activities Report or other similar filing; and 

        (17) Accounts
with respect to which the account debtor is a creditor of Borrower; provided,  however, that any such Account shall only be ineligible as to that portion of
such Account which is less than or equal to the amount owed by Borrower to

        In
no event shall an Eligible Accrued Unbilled Account constitute an Eligible Account for purposes of the Borrowing Base. 

        "Eligible
Accrued Unbilled Accounts" means, as at any date of determination, the aggregate of all Accrued Unbilled Accounts that Agent, in its reasonable credit judgment, deems to be
eligible for borrowing purposes. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Agent may determine that if such Accrued Unbilled Account would not (other than the fact of being not yet
invoiced) otherwise constitute an Eligible Account, such Accrued Unbilled Account shall not constitute an Eligible Accrued Unbilled Account. 

3

 

        "Eligible
Inventory" means, as at any date of determination, the value (determined at the lower of cost or market on a first-in, first-out basis or a moving
average basis) of all Inventory owned by Borrower and located in the United States of America that Agent, in its reasonable credit judgment, deems to be eligible for borrowing purposes. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Agent may determine that the following is not Eligible Inventory: (a) work-in-process; (b) finished goods which do
not meet the
specifications of the purchase order for such goods; (c) Inventory which Agent determines, in its reasonable credit judgment, is unacceptable for borrowing purposes due to age, quality, type,

such Schedule 2.1D may be amended from time to time with the consent of Agent); (i) Inventory located at a vendor's location or with a

interest in such Inventory from each lessor and sublessor of such location (in the case of a location not owned by Borrower) and each mortgagee (other than if the mortgagee is Agent) of such location
(in the case of a location owned by Borrower), provided, however, that as to the locations listed on
Schedule 2.1D, the failure of Agent to receive such an agreement shall not by itself constitute a basis for Agent to exclude the Inventory at such location from being Eligible Inventory, though
the foregoing shall in no event limit the ability of Agent to establish such reserves as Agent in its reasonable credit judgment determines should be established against the Loans due to the lack of
such an agreement at such location, and (l) any Field Spare Parts. 

        "Eligible
Field Spare Parts" means, as at any date of determination, the value (determined at the lower of cost or market on a first-in, first-out basis or a

Agent); (h) Field Spare Parts located at a vendor's location or with a consignee; (i) Field Spare Parts located with a warehouseman, bailee, processor or similar third party, unless such
Person has executed a waiver of interest satisfactory to Agent; and (j) unless otherwise agreed to by Agent, Field Spare Parts in any location for which Agent has not received an agreement, in
form and substance acceptable to Agent, acknowledging Agent's rights and waiving its own interest in such Field Spare Parts from each lessor and sublessor of such location (in the case of a location
not owned by Borrower) and each mortgagee (other than if the 

4

 

mortgagee
is Agent) of such location (in the case of a location owned by Borrower); provided, however,
that as to the locations listed on Schedule 2.1D, the failure of Agent to receive such an agreement shall not by itself constitute a basis for Agent to exclude the Field Spare Parts at such
location from being Eligible Field Spare Parts, though the foregoing shall in no event limit the ability of Agent to establish such reserves as Agent in its reasonable credit judgment determines
should be established against the Loans due to the lack of such an agreement at such location. 

        (E)  Swingline Loan. Agent may convert any request by Borrower for a Revolving Advance into a request for an advance under the
Swingline Loan in an amount not to exceed $10,000,000. The Swingline Loan shall be a Base Rate Loan and shall not exceed in the aggregate at any time outstanding the Maximum Swingline Loan Amount. In
the event that on any Business Day Swingline Lender desires that all or any portion of the Swingline Loan should be reduced in whole or in part, Swingline Lender shall promptly notify Agent to that
effect and indicate the portion of the Swingline Loan to be reduced. Agent agrees to transmit to Lenders the information contained in each notice received by Agent from Swingline Lender and shall
concurrently notify Lenders of each Lender's Pro Rata Share of the obligation to make a Revolving Advance to repay the Swingline Loan (or portion thereof). 

        Each
of the Lenders hereby unconditionally and irrevocably agrees to fund to Agent for the benefit of Swingline Lender, in lawful money of the United States and in same day funds, not
later than 1:00 p.m. Chicago time on the Business Day immediately following the Business Day of such Lender's receipt of such notice from Agent (provided that if any Lender shall receive such
notice at or prior to 11:00 a.m. Chicago time on a Business Day, such funding shall be made by such Lender on such Business Day), such Lender's Pro Rata Share of a Revolving Advance (which
Revolving Advance shall be a Base Rate
Loan and shall be deemed to be requested by Borrower) in the principal amount of such portion of the Swingline Loan which is required to be paid to Swingline Lender under this  subsection 2.1 (E)
(regardless of whether the conditions precedent thereto set forth in Section 3
and the Conditions Rider are then satisfied and whether or not Borrower has provided a notice of borrowing under subsection 2.1(F) and whether or not
any Default or Event of Default exists or all or any of the Loans have been accelerated, but subject to the other provisions of this subsection 2.1(E)).
The proceeds of any such Revolving Advance shall be immediately paid over to Agent for the benefit of Swingline Lender for application to the Swingline Loan. 

        In
the event that an Event of Default shall occur and either (i) such Event of Default is of the type described in subsection 8.1 (G) or
(H) hereof or (ii) no further Revolving Advances are being made under this Agreement, so long as any such Event of Default is continuing, then, each of the Lenders
(other than Swingline Lender) shall be deemed to have irrevocably, unconditionally and immediately purchased a participation in the Swingline Loan from Swingline Lender in an amount equal to such
Lender's Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Loan Commitment multiplied by the total amount of the Swingline Loan outstanding. Each Lender shall effect such purchase by making available the amount of such
Lender's participation in the Swingline Loan in U.S. Dollars in immediately available funds to Agent's Account for the benefit of Swingline Lender. In the event any Lender fails to make available to
Swingline Lender when due the amount of such Lender's participation in the Swingline Loan, Swingline Lender shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Lender together with interest
at the Federal Funds Effective Rate. Each such purchase by a Lender shall be made without recourse to Swingline Lender, without representation or warranty of any kind, and shall be effected and
evidenced pursuant to documents reasonably acceptable to Swingline Lender. The obligations of the Lenders under this subsection 2.1 (E) shall be
absolute, irrevocable and unconditional, shall be made under all circumstances and shall not be affected, reduced or impaired for any reason whatsoever. 

5

 

        (F)  Borrowing Mechanics. (1) LIBOR Loans made on any Funding Date shall be in an aggregate minimum amount of
$2,500,000 and integral multiples of $500,000 in excess of such amount. (2) On any day when Borrower desires a Revolving Advance under this subsection
2.1, Borrower shall give Agent written or telephonic notice of the proposed borrowing by 11:00 a.m. Chicago time on the Funding Date of a Base Rate Loan less than
$5,000,000, written or telephonic notice by 11:00 a.m. Chicago time one (1) Business Day prior to the Funding Date of a Base Rate Loan equal to or greater than $5,000,000, and three
(3) Business Days in advance of the Funding Date of a LIBOR Loan, which notice shall specify the proposed Funding Date (which shall be a Business Day), whether such Loans shall consist of Base
Rate Loans or LIBOR Loans, and, for LIBOR Loans, the Interest Period applicable thereto. Any such telephonic notice shall be confirmed with a Notice of Borrowing on the same day as such request.
Neither Agent nor Lender shall incur any liability to Borrower for acting upon any telephonic notice or a Notice of Borrowing Agent believes in good faith to have been given by a duly authorized
officer or other person authorized to borrow on behalf of Borrower or for otherwise acting in good faith under this subsection 2.1(F). Neither Agent nor
Lender will be required to make any advance pursuant to any telephonic or written notice or a Notice of Borrowing, unless all of the terms and conditions set forth in  Section 3 and
the Conditions Rider have been satisfied and Agent has also received the most recent Borrowing Base Certificate and all other
documents required under Section 5 and the Reporting Rider by 11:00 a.m. Chicago time on the date of such funding request. Each Advance
shall be deposited by wire transfer in immediately available funds in such account as
Borrower may from time to time designate to Agent in writing. The becoming due of any amount required to be paid under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents as principal, Lender Letter of
Credit reimbursement obligation, accrued interest, fees, compensation or any other amounts shall be deemed irrevocably to be an automatic request by Borrower for a Revolving Advance, which shall be a
Base Rate Loan on the due date of, and in the amount required to pay (as set forth on Agent's books and records), such principal, Lender Letter of Credit reimbursement obligation, accrued interest
fees, compensation or any other amounts. 

        (G)  Notes. Borrower shall execute and deliver to each Lender with appropriate insertions Notes to evidence such Lender's
Commitments. In the event of an assignment under subsection 9.5, Borrower shall, upon surrender of the assigning Lender's Notes, issue new Notes to
reflect the interest held by the assigning Lender and its Eligible Assignee. 

        (H)  Letters of Credit. The Revolving Loan Commitments may, in addition to Revolving Advances, be utilized, upon the request
of Borrower, for (i) the issuance of letters of credit by Agent; or with Agent's consent any Lender, or (ii) the issuance by Agent of risk participations to banks to induce such banks to
issue Bank Letters of Credit for the account of Borrower (each of (i) and (ii) above a "Lender Letter of Credit"). Each Lender shall be deemed to have purchased a participation in each
Lender Letter of Credit issued on behalf of Borrower in an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share thereof. In no event shall any Lender Letter of Credit be issued to the extent that the issuance of such
Lender Letter of Credit would cause the sum of the Letter of Credit Reserve (after giving effect to such issuance), plus the Revolving Loan, plus the Swingline Loan to exceed the lesser of
(x) the Borrowing Base and (y) the Revolving Loan Commitments. 

        (1)   Maximum Amount. The aggregate amount of Letter of Credit Liability with respect to all Lender Letters of Credit
outstanding at any time shall not exceed $5,000,000.00. 

        (2)   Reimbursement. Borrower shall be irrevocably and unconditionally obligated forthwith without presentment, demand, protest
or other formalities of any kind, to reimburse Agent or the issuer for any amounts paid with respect to a Lender Letter of Credit including all fees, costs and expenses paid to any bank that issues a
Bank Letter of Credit. Borrower hereby authorizes and directs Agent, at Agent's option, to debit Borrower's account (by increasing the Revolving Loan) in the amount of any payment made with respect to
any Lender Letter of 

6

 

Credit.
In the event that Agent elects not to debit Borrower's account and Borrower fails to reimburse Agent in full on the date of any payment under a Lender Letter of Credit, Agent shall promptly
notify each Lender of the unreimbursed amount of such payment together with accrued interest thereon and each Lender, on the next Business Day, shall deliver to Agent an amount equal to its respective
participation in same day funds. The obligation of each Lender to deliver to Agent an amount equal to its respective participation pursuant to the foregoing sentence shall be absolute and
unconditional and such remittance shall be made notwithstanding the occurrence or continuation of an Event of Default or Default or the failure to satisfy any condition set forth in  Section 3 and
the Conditions Rider. In the event any Lender fails to make available to Agent the amount of such Lender's participation in such
Lender Letter of Credit, Agent shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Lender together with interest on such amount calculated at the Base Rate. 

        (3)   Request for Letters of Credit. Borrower shall give Agent at least three (3) Business Days prior notice specifying
the date a Lender Letter of Credit is to be issued, identifying the beneficiary and describing the nature of the transactions proposed to be supported thereby. The notice shall be accompanied by the
form of the letter of credit being requested. Any letter of credit which Borrower requests must be in such form, be for such amount, contain such terms and support such transactions as are reasonably
satisfactory to Agent. The expiration date of each Lender Letter of Credit shall be on a date which is at least thirty (30) days prior to the Termination Date. 

        (I)   Other Letter of Credit Provisions. 

        (1)   Obligations Absolute. The obligation of Borrower to reimburse Agent or any Lender for payments made under, and other
amounts payable in connection with, any Lender Letter of Credit shall be unconditional and irrevocable and shall be paid under all circumstances strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement
including, without limitation, the following circumstances: 

        (a)   any
lack of validity or enforceability of any Lender Letter of Credit, or any other agreement; 

        (b)   the
existence of any claim, set-off, defense or other right which Borrower, any of its Affiliates, Agent or any Lender, on the one hand, may at any time have
against any beneficiary or
transferee of any Lender Letter of Credit (or any Persons for whom any such transferee may be acting), Agent, any Lender or any other Person, on the other hand, whether in connection with this
Agreement, the transactions contemplated herein or any unrelated transaction (including any underlying transaction between Borrower or any of its Affiliates and the beneficiary of the Lender Letter of
Credit); 

        (c)   any
draft, demand, certificate or any other document presented under any Lender Letter of Credit is alleged to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any
respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; 

        (d)   any
adverse change in the business, operations, properties, assets, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of Loan Parties or any of their Subsidiaries; 

        (e)   any
breach of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by any party thereto; 

        (f)    any
other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing; 

        (g)   the
fact that a Default or an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing; or 

7

  

        (h)   payment
under any Lender Letter of Credit against presentation of a demand, draft or certificate or other document which does not comply with the terms of such Lender
Letter of Credit; provided that, in the case of any payment by Agent or a Lender under any Lender Letter of Credit, Agent or such Lender has not acted
with gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction) in determining that the demand for payment under such Lender Letter of Credit complies on its face with
any applicable requirements for a demand for payment under such Lender Letter of Credit. 

        (2)   Nature of Lender's Duties. As between any Lender that issues a Lender Letter of Credit (an "Issuing Lender"), on the one
hand, and all Lenders on the other hand, all Lenders assume all risks of the acts and omissions of, or misuse of any Lender Letter of Credit by the beneficiary thereof. In furtherance and not in
limitation of the foregoing, neither Agent nor any Issuing Lender shall be responsible: (a) for the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any document by any
party in connection with the application for and issuance of any Lender Letter of Credit, even if it should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent or
forged; (b) for the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign any Lender Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or
proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason; (c) for failure of the beneficiary of any Lender Letter of Credit to comply fully with
conditions required in order to demand payment thereunder; provided that, in the case of any payment under any such Lender Letter of Credit, any Issuing
Lender has not acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction) in determining that the demand for payment under any such Lender Letter of Credit
complies on its face with any applicable requirements for a demand for payment thereunder; (d) for errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by
mail, cable, telegraph, telex or otherwise, whether or not they be in cipher; (e) for errors in interpretation of technical terms; (f) for any loss or delay in the transmission or
otherwise of any document required in order to make a payment under any such Lender Letter of Credit; (g) for the credit of the proceeds of any drawing under any such Lender Letter of Credit;
and (h) for any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of Agent or any Lender as the case may be. 

        (3)   Liability. Subject to Section 2.1(I)(2) above, in furtherance and
extension of and not in limitation of, the specific provisions herein above set forth, any action taken or omitted by Agent or any Lender under or in connection with any Lender Letter of Credit, if
taken or omitted in good faith, shall not put Agent or any Lender under any resulting liability to Borrower or any other Lender. 

        (J)   Availability of a Lender's Pro Rata Share. 

        (1)   Lender's Amounts Available on a Funding Date. Unless Agent receives written notice from a Lender on or prior to any
Funding Date that such Lender will not make available to Agent as and when required such Lender's Pro Rata Share of any requested Loan or Advance, Agent may assume that each Lender will make such
amount available to Agent in immediately available funds on the Funding Date and Agent may (but shall not be so required), in reliance upon such assumption, make available to Borrower on such date a
corresponding amount. 

        (2)   Lender's Failure to Fund. A Defaulting Lender shall pay interest to Agent at the Federal Funds Effective Rate on the
Defaulted Amount from the Business Day following the applicable Funding Date of such Defaulted Amount until the date such Defaulted Amount is 

8

 

paid
to Agent. A notice of Agent submitted to any Lender with respect to amounts owing under this subsection shall be conclusive, absent manifest error. If such amount is not paid when due to Agent,
Agent, at its option, may notify Borrower of such failure to fund and, upon demand by Agent, Borrower shall pay the unpaid amount to Agent for Agent's account, together with interest thereon for each
day elapsed since the date of such borrowing, at a rate per annum equal to the interest rate applicable at the time to the Loan made by the other Lenders on such Funding Date. The failure of any
Lender to make available any portion of its Commitment on any Funding Date or to fund its participation in a Lender Letter of Credit or Swingline Loan shall not relieve any other Lender of any
obligation hereunder to fund such Lender's Commitment on such Funding Date or to fund any such participation, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to honor its
Commitment on any Funding Date or to fund any participation to be funded by any other Lender. 

        (3)   Payments to a Defaulting Lender. Agent shall not be obligated to transfer to a Defaulting Lender any payment made by
Borrower to Agent or any amount otherwise received by Agent for application to the Obligations nor shall a Defaulting Lender be entitled to the sharing of any interest, fees or payments hereunder. 

        (4)   Defaulting Lender's Right to Vote. For purposes of voting or consenting to matters with respect to (i) the Loan
Documents or (ii) any other matter concerning the Loans, a Defaulting Lender shall be deemed not to be a "Lender" and such Lender's Commitments and outstanding Loans and Advances shall be
deemed to be zero. 

        2.2   Interest. 

        (A)  Rate of Interest. From the date the Loans are made and the date the other Obligations become due the Loans and the other
Obligations shall bear interest at the applicable rates set forth below (collectively, the "Interest Rate"): 

        (1)   The
Revolving Loan and all other Obligations for which no other interest rate is specified shall bear interest as follows: 

        (a)   If
a Base Rate Loan, then at the sum of the Base Rate plus the Base Rate Margin applicable to Revolving Loans. 

        (b)   If
a LIBOR Loan, then at the sum of the LIBOR plus the LIBOR Margin applicable to Revolving Loans. 

        (2)   The
Swingline Loan shall bear interest at the sum of the Base Rate plus the Base Rate Margin applicable to the Swingline
Loan. 

        Subject
to the provisions of subsection 2.1(F), Borrower shall designate to Agent whether a Loan shall be a Base Rate or LIBOR Loan at the
time a Notice of Borrowing is given pursuant to subsection 2.1(F). Such designation by Borrower may be changed from time to time pursuant to  subsection 2.2(D). If on any day a Loan or a portion of any Loan is outstanding with respect to which notice has not been delivered to Agent in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement specifying the basis for determining the rate of interest or if LIBOR has been specified and no LIBOR quote is available, then for that day that Loan or
portion thereof shall bear interest determined by reference to the Base Rate. 

        "Base
Rate Margin" shall mean (i) as of the Closing Date, 1.25% per annum, and (ii) thereafter, as of February 1, May 1, August 1 and November 1
of each year (each, an "Adjustment Date"), commencing on August 1, 2002, the Base Rate Margin shall be adjusted, if necessary, to the applicable percent per annum set forth in the pricing table
set forth on Schedule 2.2(A) hereto corresponding to the Average Daily Availability for the three-month period ending on the last day of the most recently completed calendar quarter prior to
the applicable 

9

 

Adjustment
Date (each such period, a "Calculation Period") calculated in the manner described in Financial Covenants Rider hereto. 

        "LIBOR
Margin" shall mean (i) as of the Closing Date, 2.75% per annum, and (ii) thereafter, as of each Adjustment Date, commencing on August 1, 2002, the LIBOR
Margin shall be adjusted, if necessary, to the applicable percent per annum set forth in the pricing table set forth on Schedule 2.2(A) hereto corresponding to the Average Daily Availability
for the applicable Calculation Period. 

        If
after the initial Adjustment Date the Borrower shall fail to deliver a Compliance and Pricing Certificate by the date required pursuant to the Reporting Rider effective as of the
tenth (10th) Business Day following the date on which such Compliance and Pricing Certificate was due, each applicable Base Rate Margin and each applicable LIBOR Margin shall be
conclusively presumed to equal the highest applicable Base Rate Margin and the highest applicable LIBOR Margin specified in the pricing table set forth on Schedule 2.2(A) hereto until the date
of delivery of the Compliance and Pricing Certificate. 

        After
the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default (i) the Loans and all other Obligations shall, at the election of Agent or Requisite Lenders, bear interest
at a rate per annum equal to two percent (2%) plus the applicable Interest Rate (the "Default Rate"), (ii) each LIBOR Loan shall automatically convert to a Base Rate Loan at the end of any
applicable Interest Period and (iii) no Loans may be converted to LIBOR Loans. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing on an Adjustment Date, no  reduction in the Base Rate Margin or
LIBOR Margin shall occur on such Adjustment Date. 

        (B)  Computation and Payment of Interest. Interest on the Loans and all other Obligations shall be computed on the daily
principal balance on the basis of a three hundred sixty (360) day year for the actual number of days elapsed. In computing interest on any Loan, the date of funding of the Loan or the first
(1st) day of an Interest Period applicable to such Loan or, with respect to a Base Rate Loan being converted from a LIBOR Loan, the date of conversion of such LIBOR Loan to such Base
Rate Loan, shall be included; and the date of payment of such Loan or the expiration date of an Interest Period applicable to such Loan, or with respect to a Base Rate Loan being converted to a LIBOR
Loan, the date of conversion of such Base Rate Loan to such LIBOR Loan, shall be excluded; provided that if a Loan is repaid on the same day on which it is made, one (1) day's interest shall be
paid on that Loan. Interest on Base Rate Loans and all other Obligations other than LIBOR Loans shall be payable to Agent for the benefit of Lenders monthly in arrears on the first (1st)
day of each month, on the date of any prepayment of Loans, and at maturity, whether by acceleration or otherwise. Interest on LIBOR Loans shall be payable to Agent for the benefit of Lenders on the
last day of the applicable Interest Period for such Loan, on the date of any prepayment of the Loans, and at maturity, whether by acceleration or otherwise. In addition, for each LIBOR Loan having an
Interest Period longer than three (3) months, interest accrued on such Loan shall also be payable on the last day of each three (3) month interval during such Interest Period. 

        (C)  Interest Laws. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document,
Borrower shall not be required to pay, and neither Agent nor any Lender shall be permitted to collect, any amount of interest in excess of the maximum amount of interest permitted by applicable law
("Excess Interest"). If any Excess Interest is provided for or determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to have been provided for in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, then in such
event: (1) the provisions of this subsection shall govern and control; (2) neither Borrower nor any other Loan Party shall be obligated to pay any Excess Interest; (3) any Excess
Interest that Agent or any Lender may have received hereunder shall be, at such Lender's option, (a) applied as a credit against the outstanding principal balance of the 

10

 

Obligations
or accrued and unpaid interest (not to exceed the maximum amount permitted by law), (b) refunded to the payor thereof, or (c) any combination of the foregoing; (4) the
interest rate(s) provided for herein shall be automatically reduced to the maximum lawful rate allowed from time to time under applicable law (the "Maximum Rate"), and this Agreement and the other
Loan Documents shall be deemed to have been and shall be, reformed and modified to reflect such reduction; and (5) neither Borrower nor any Loan Party shall have any action against Agent or any
Lender for any damages arising out of the payment or collection of any Excess Interest. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if for any period of time interest on any Obligations is calculated at the
Maximum Rate rather than the applicable rate under this Agreement, and thereafter such applicable rate becomes less than the Maximum Rate, the rate of interest payable on such Obligations shall remain
at the Maximum Rate until each Lender shall have received the amount of interest which such Lender would have received during such period on such Obligations had the rate of interest not been limited
to the Maximum Rate during such period. 

        (D)  Conversion or Continuation. Subject to the other provisions of this Agreement, Borrower shall have the option to
(1) convert at any time all or any part of outstanding Loans equal to $2,500,000 and integral multiples of $500,000 in excess of that amount from Base Rate Loans to LIBOR Loans or
(2) upon the expiration of any Interest Period applicable to a LIBOR Loan, to (a) continue all or any portion of such LIBOR Loan equal to $2,500,000 and integral multiples of $500,000 in
excess of that amount as a LIBOR Loan or (b) convert all or any portion of such LIBOR Loan to a Base Rate Loan. The succeeding Interest Period(s) of such continued or converted Loan commence on
the last day of the Interest Period of the Loan to be continued or converted; provided that no outstanding Loan may be continued as, or be converted into, a LIBOR Loan, when any Event of Default or
Default has occurred and is continuing. 

        Borrower
shall deliver a Notice of Borrowing with respect to any such conversion/continuation to Agent no later than 11:00 a.m. (Chicago time) at least three (3) Business
Days in advance of the proposed conversion/continuation date. The Notice of Borrowing with respect to such conversion/continuation shall certify: (1) the proposed conversion/continuation date
(which shall be a Business Day); (2) the amount of the Loan to be converted/continued; (3) the nature of the proposed conversion/continuation; (4) in the case of conversion to, or
a continuation of, a LIBOR Loan, the requested Interest Period; and (5) that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would result from the proposed
conversion/continuation. 

        In
lieu of delivering a Notice of Borrowing with respect to any such conversion/continuation, Borrower may give Agent telephonic notice by the required time of any proposed
conversion/continuation under this subsection 2.2(D); provided that such notice shall be promptly confirmed in writing by delivery of a Notice of
Borrowing (in form and substance described herein) with respect to such conversion/continuation to Agent on or before the proposed conversion/continuation date. 

        Neither
Agent nor any Lender shall incur any liability to Borrower in acting upon any telephonic notice or a Notice of Borrowing referred to above that Agent believes in good faith to
have been given by an officer or other person authorized to act on behalf of Borrower or for otherwise acting in good faith under this subsection
2.2(D).

        2.3   Fees. 

        (A)  Unused Line Fee. Borrower shall pay to Agent, for the benefit of Lenders, a fee in an amount equal to the Revolving Loan
Commitment less the sum of (i) the average daily balance of each of the Revolving Loan and the Swingline Loan, plus, (ii) the average daily face amount of the Letter of Credit Reserve
during the preceding month, multiplied by (iii) 0.50% per annum. Such fee to be calculated on the basis of a three hundred sixty (360) day year for the actual number of days elapsed and
to be payable monthly in arrears on the first (1st) day of each month following the Closing Date. 

11

 

        (B)  Letter of Credit Fees. Borrower shall pay to Agent a fee with respect to the Lender Letters of Credit (i) for the
benefit of all Lenders with a Revolving Loan Commitment (based on their respective Pro Rata Share) in the amount of the average daily amount of Letter of Credit Liability outstanding during such month
multiplied by the per annum percentage equal to the LIBOR Margin at such time in effect, and (ii) for the account of Agent a fronting fee for each Letter of Credit issued or obtained by Agent
from the date of issuance to the date of termination equal to the average daily amount of Letter of Credit Liability with respect to such Letters of Credit outstanding during such month multiplied by
twenty-five one hundredths of one percent (0.25%) per annum. Such fees will be calculated on the basis of a three hundred sixty (360) day year for the actual number of days elapsed
and will be payable monthly in arrears on the first (1st) day of each month. Borrower shall also reimburse Agent for any and all fees and expenses, if any, paid by Agent or any Lender to
the issuer of any Bank Letter of Credit. 

        (C)  Prepayment Fees. If during the first Loan Year Borrower establishes a credit facility with another Person and in
connection therewith terminates the credit facility provided for herein and prepays the Obligations in full, Borrower, at the time of prepayment, shall pay to Agent for the benefit of Lenders, as
compensation for the costs of being prepared to make funds available to Borrower under this
Agreement, and not as a penalty, an amount determined by multiplying 1.00% by the amount of the Revolving Loan Commitment. No prepayment fee shall be payable during any Loan Year after the first Loan
Year. 

        (D)  Audit Fees. Borrower agrees to pay all fees and expenses of the firm or individual(s) engaged by Agent to perform audits
of Borrower's operations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Agent uses its internal auditors to perform any such audit, Borrower agrees to pay to Agent, for its own account, an audit fee with respect
to each such audit equal to $750 per internal auditor per day or any portion thereof, together with all out of pocket expenses. Exclusive of any audits performed in connection with the credit facility
initially established by this Agreement and the initial transactions contemplated by this Agreement, as long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Average Daily Availability
for the three-month period ending on the last day of the most recent calendar month is at least $10,000,000.00, Borrower shall not be required to pay for more than two such audits during any Loan Year
of Borrower and the aggregate amount of audit fees required to be paid by Borrower during any Loan Year shall be limited to $50,000.00, but if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or the
Average Daily Availability in the above-described period is less than the above indicated amount, Borrower shall be required to pay for up to one such audit during each quarter of each Loan Year of
Borrower, and there shall be no $50,000.00 cap on audit fees payable by Borrower during any individual Loan Year. 

        (E)  Other Fees and Expenses. Borrower shall pay to Agent, for its own account, all charges for returned items and all other
bank charges incurred by Agent, as well as Agent's standard wire transfer charges for each wire transfer made under this Agreement. 

        (F)  Fee Letter. Borrower shall pay to Heller, individually, the fees specified in that certain letter agreement dated between
Borrower and Heller in the amounts and at the times specified therein. 

        2.4   Payments and Prepayments. 

        (A)  Manner and Time of Payment. In its sole discretion, Agent may elect to honor the automatic requests by Borrower for
Revolving Advances for all principal, Lender Letter of Credit reimbursement obligations, interest, fees, compensation and any other amounts due hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents on
their applicable due dates pursuant to subsection 2.1 (F), up to the Revolving Loan Commitment of all Revolving Loan Lenders, and the proceeds of each
such Revolving Advance, if made, shall be applied as a direct payment of the relevant Obligation. To the extent such amounts exceed the Revolving Loan Commitment of all Revolving 

12

 

Loan
Lenders, or if Agent elects to bill Borrower for any amount due hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents, such amount shall be immediately due and payable with interest thereon as
provided herein. All payments made by Borrower with respect to the Obligations shall be made without deduction, defense, setoff or counterclaim. All payments to Agent hereunder shall, unless otherwise
directed by Agent, be made to Agent's Account or in accordance with subsection 4.25. All proceeds remitted to Agent's Account shall be credited to the
Obligations on the first Business Day following the day such proceeds were received. For the purpose of calculating interest on the Obligations, all funds shall be deemed received on the first
Business Day following the day such proceeds were received. 

        (B)  Mandatory Prepayments. 

        (1)   Overadvance. At any time that the sum of the Revolving Loan exceeds the Maximum Revolving Loan Amount, Borrower shall,
promptly repay the Revolving Loan to the extent necessary to reduce the aggregate principal balance to an amount equal to or less than the Maximum Revolving Loan Amount. 

        (2)   Prepayments from Proceeds of Asset Dispositions (other than Insurance Proceeds and Condemnation Proceeds). Immediately
upon receipt by Borrower or any of its domestic Subsidiaries of Net Proceeds of any Asset Disposition (in one or a series of related transactions), which proceeds exceed $100,000 (it being understood
that if the Net Proceeds exceed $100,000 within any 12-month period the portion above $100,000, shall be subject to this subsection
2.4(B)(2)), Borrower shall prepay the Obligations in an amount equal to such proceeds. All such prepayments shall be applied to the Loans in accordance with  subsection 2.4(E).
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Net Proceeds from insurance policies shall be governed by the provisions of  subsection 2.4(B)(3).
 

        (3)   Prepayments from Insurance and Condemnation Proceeds. Immediately upon receipt by Borrower or any of its domestic
Subsidiaries of Net Proceeds from any insurance policy or from a condemnation award, Borrower shall prepay the Obligations in an amount equal to such proceeds. All such prepayments shall be applied to
the Loans in accordance with subsection 2.4(B); provided,  however, if Borrower reasonably expects such
insurance proceeds or condemnation award proceeds to begin to be used within 180 days to repair or
replace the assets as to which such insurance proceeds or condemnation award proceeds are paid with like assets, an amount equal to the amount of the
insurance proceeds or condemnation award proceeds shall be placed in a cash collateral account pursuant to which Agent, on behalf of the Lenders, shall have a first priority Lien, and sole dominion
and control, and Borrower may, so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, be disbursed such proceeds, but only for such repair or replacement. If Borrower fails to begin
commencement of such repair or replacement within one hundred eighty (180) days (or thereafter at any time does not continue to diligently pursue completion of such repair or replacement),
Borrower hereby authorizes Agent and Lenders to liquidate the cash collateral account and apply the proceeds from such liquidation to the Obligations. In addition to the other components of the
Borrowing Base, at any particular date an amount equal to ninety percent (90%) of the amount in such cash collateral account at such date shall be added to the Borrowing Base. 

        (4)   Prepayments from Issuance of Securities. Within three Business Days of the receipt by Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries
of the cash Net Proceeds of the issuance of equity securities (other than proceeds from the issuance of equity securities to Borrower to WCAS or any Affiliate of WCAS or to employees of the Borrower,
WCAS or any such Affiliate, provided that the proceeds from such issuance are not used in a manner which violates the provisions of this Agreement), Borrower shall prepay the Loans in an amount equal
to such proceeds, net of underwriting discounts and commissions and other reasonable costs 

13

 

associated
therewith. All such prepayments shall be applied to the Loans in accordance with subsection 2.4(E). 

        (C)  Voluntary Prepayments and Repayments. Borrower may, at any time upon not less than three (3) Business Days prior
notice to Agent, terminate in full or in part the Revolving Loan Commitment; provided, however, the
Revolving Loan Commitment may not be terminated in full by Borrower until all Obligations are paid in full. At any time the Borrower may prepay the Loans, in whole or in part, without premium or
penalty (unless payment of such premium is required by the provision of subsection 2.3(C)) upon not less than one Business Days' prior written notice to
Agent (or three Business Days' prior notice in the case of a prepayment of any LIBOR Loans); provided,  however, that notwithstanding the foregoing,
Borrower shall be liable for any amounts payable by Borrower pursuant to subsection
2.12 because of prepayment of any LIBOR Loans. Any prepayment of the Obligations permitted in this subsection 2.4(C) shall be
subject to the payment of all fees set forth in subsection 2.3, including, without limitation, the fees set forth in subsection
2.3(C) and the payment of any amounts owing pursuant to subsection 2.12 resulting from such prepayment. In the event any Lender
Letters of Credit are outstanding at the time that Borrower prepays the Obligations and desires to terminate the Revolving Loan Commitment, Borrower shall cause Agent and each Lender to be released
from all liability under any Lender Letters of Credit or, at Agent's option, Borrower shall (1) deposit with Agent for the benefit of all Lenders with a Revolving Loan Commitment cash in an
amount equal to one hundred and five percent (105%) of the aggregate outstanding Letter of Credit Liability to be available to Agent to reimburse payments of drafts drawn under such Lender Letters of
Credit and pay any fees and expenses related thereto and (2) prepay the fees payable under subsection 2.3(B)with respect to such Lender Letters
of Credit for the full remaining terms of such Lender Letters of Credit. Upon termination of any such Letter of Credit, the unearned portion of such prepaid fee attributable to such Letter of Credit
shall be refunded to Borrower. 

        (D)  Payments on Business Days. Whenever any payment to be made hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day that is not a
Business Day, the payment may be made on the next succeeding Business Day and such extension of time shall be included in the computation of the amount of interest or fees due hereunder. 

        (E)  Application of Prepayment Proceeds. With respect to the prepayments described in subsections
2.4(B)(2) and 2.4(B)(3), such payments shall be applied to reduce the outstanding principal balance of the Revolving Loans but not as a permanent reduction of the Revolving
Loan Commitment. Considering each type of Loan being prepaid separately, any such prepayment shall be applied first to Base Rate Loans of the type required to be prepaid before application to LIBOR
Loans of the type required to be prepaid. 

        2.5   Term of this Agreement. This Agreement shall be effective until the earlier of (a) the fifth anniversary of the
Closing Date and (b) the acceleration of all Obligations pursuant to subsection 8.3 (the "Termination Date"). The Commitments shall terminate
(unless earlier terminated pursuant to the terms hereunder) upon the Termination Date and all Obligations shall become immediately due and payable without notice or demand. Notwithstanding any
termination, until all Obligations have been fully paid and satisfied, Agent, on behalf of itself and Lenders, shall be entitled to retain security interests in and liens upon all Collateral, and even
after payment of all Obligations hereunder, Borrower's obligation to indemnify Agent and each Lender in accordance with the terms hereof shall continue. 

        2.6   Statements. Agent shall render a monthly statement of account to Borrower within twenty (20) days after the end of
each month. Such statement of account shall constitute an account stated unless Borrower makes written objection thereto within forty-five (45) days from the date such statement is
mailed to Borrower. Agent shall record in its books and records, including computer records, (a) all Loans, interest charges and payments thereof, (b) all Letter of Credit Liability,
(c) the charging and payment of all fees, costs and expenses and (d) all other debits and credits pursuant to this Agreement. The balance in the loan accounts shall constitute
presumptive evidence, absent manifest error, of the accuracy of the information contained therein; provided,  however, that any
failure by Agent to so record shall not limit or affect the Borrower's obligation to pay.
  

14

   
        2.7   Grant of Security Interest. To secure the payment and performance of the Obligations, including all renewals, extensions,
restructurings and refinancings of any or all of the Obligations, Borrower hereby grants to Agent, on behalf of Agent and Lenders, a continuing security interest, lien and mortgage in and to all
right, title and interest of Borrower in all of Borrower's personal and real property, whether now owned or existing or hereafter acquired or arising and regardless of where located (all being
collectively referred to as the "Collateral") including, without limitation, (A) Accounts, and all guaranties and security therefor, and all goods and rights represented thereby or arising
therefrom including the rights of stoppage in transit, replevin and reclamation; (B) Inventory; (C) general intangibles (as defined in the UCC); (D) documents (as defined in the
UCC) or other receipts covering, evidencing or representing goods; (E) instruments (as defined in the UCC); (F) chattel paper (as defined in the UCC); (G) Equipment;
(H) Mortgaged Property; (I) investment property (as defined in the UCC) including, without limitation, all securities (certificated and uncertificated) security accounts, security
entitlements, commodity contracts and commodity accounts; (J) Intellectual Property; (K) all deposit accounts of Borrower maintained with any bank or financial institution;
(L) all cash and other monies and property of Borrower in the possession or under the control of Agent, any Lender or any participant; (M) all books, records, ledger cards, files,
correspondence, computer programs, tapes, disks and related data processing software that at any time evidence or contain information relating to any of the property described above or are otherwise
necessary or helpful in the collection thereof or realization thereon; and (N) proceeds and products of all or any of the property described above, including, without limitation, the proceeds
of any insurance policies covering any of the above described property. Notwithstanding the forgoing provisions of this subsection 2.7, (i) in
the case of foreign Subsidiaries of Borrower, 65% of all the issued capital stock of such Subsidiary shall constitute "Collateral" and (ii) the All Obligations Collateral (as defined below)
shall secure payment and performance of all the Obligations, but the amount of the Obligations secured by all the other Collateral (i.e. Collateral which does not constitute All Obligations Collateral
and which shall be referred to in this Agreement as the "Non-All Obligations Collateral") shall at no specific date exceed the Unsecured Senior Notes Permitted Liens Limitation. The term
"All Obligations Collateral" shall mean all rights, title and interest of Borrower, whether now owned or existing or hereafter acquired or arising and regardless of where located in all "accounts
receivable" and "inventory" as such terms are defined in the Unsecured Senior Notes Indenture. 

        2.8   Yield Protection. 

        (A)  Capital Adequacy and Other. In the event any Lender shall have determined that the adoption after the date hereof of any
law, treaty, governmental (or quasi-governmental) rule, regulation, guideline or order regarding capital adequacy, reserve requirements or similar requirements or compliance by such Lender or any
corporation controlling such Lender with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy, reserve requirements or similar requirements (whether or not having the force of law and whether or not
failure to comply therewith would be unlawful) from any central bank or governmental agency or body having jurisdiction does or shall have the effect of increasing the amount of capital,
reserves or other funds required to be maintained by such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender and thereby reducing the rate of return on such Lender's or such corporation's capital as a
consequence of its obligations hereunder, then Borrower shall within fifteen (15) days after notice and demand from such Lender (together with the certificate referred to in the next sentence
and with a copy to Agent) pay to Agent, for the account of such Lender, additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender for such reduction. A certificate as to the amount of such cost and
showing the basis of the computation of such cost submitted by such Lender to Borrower shall, absent manifest error, be final, conclusive and binding for all purposes. 

        (B)  Increased LIBOR Funding Costs. If, after the date hereof, the introduction of, change in or interpretation of any law,
rule, regulation, treaty or directive would impose or increase reserve 

15

 

requirements
(other than as taken into account in the definition of LIBOR) or otherwise increase the cost to any Lender of making or maintaining a LIBOR Loan, then Borrower shall from time to time
within fifteen (15) days after notice and demand from such affected Lenders (together with the certificate referred to in the next sentence and with a copy to Agent) pay to Agent, for the
account of such affected Lenders, additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lenders for such increased cost. A certificate as to the amount of such cost and showing the basis of the computation
of such cost submitted by such affected Lenders to Borrower and Agent shall, absent manifest error, be final, conclusive and binding for all purposes. 

        2.9   Taxes. 

        (A)  No Deductions. Any and all payments or reimbursements made hereunder shall be made free and clear of and without
deduction for any and all taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect thereto (all such taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings
and all liabilities with respect thereto referred to herein as "Tax Liabilities"; excluding, however, taxes imposed on the net income of any Lender or Agent by the jurisdiction under the laws of which
Agent or such Lender is organized or doing business or any political subdivision thereof and taxes imposed on its net income by the jurisdiction of Agent's or such Lender's applicable lending office
or any political subdivision). If Borrower shall be required by law to deduct any such Tax Liabilities from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder to Agent or any Lender, then the sum payable
hereunder shall be increased as may be necessary so that, after making all required deductions, Agent or such Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions
been made. 

        (B)  Changes in Tax Laws. In the event that, subsequent to the Closing Date, (i) any changes in any existing law,
regulation, treaty or directive or in the interpretation or application thereof, (ii) any new law, regulation, treaty or directive enacted or any interpretation or application thereof, or
(iii) compliance by Lender with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any governmental authority, agency or instrumentality: 

        (1)   does
or shall subject Agent or any Lender to any tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or any Loans made or Lender Letters
of Credit issued hereunder, or change the basis of taxation of payments to Agent or such Lender of principal, fees, interest or any other amount payable hereunder (except for net income taxes, or
franchise taxes imposed in lieu of net income taxes, imposed generally by federal, state or local taxing authorities with respect to interest or commitment or other fees payable hereunder or changes
in the rate of tax on the overall net income of Agent or such Lender); or 

        (2)   does
or shall impose on Agent or any Lender any other condition or increased cost in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby or participations herein; and
the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to Agent or such Lender of issuing any Lender Letter of Credit or making or continuing any Loan hereunder, as the case may be, or to reduce
any amount receivable hereunder; 

then,
in any such case, Borrower shall promptly pay to Agent or such Lender, upon its notice and demand, any additional amounts necessary to compensate Agent or such Lender, on an
after-tax basis, for such additional cost or reduced amount receivable, as determined by Agent or such Lender with respect to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents. If Agent or any
Lender becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this subsection, it shall promptly notify Borrower of the event by reason of which Agent or such Lender has become so entitled (with
any such Lender concurrently notifying Agent). A certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to the foregoing sentence submitted by Agent or any Lender to Borrower shall, absent manifest
error, be final, conclusive and binding for all purposes. 

16

 

        (C)  Foreign Lenders. Each Lender organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside the United States (a "Foreign Lender") as
to which payments to be made under this Agreement are exempt from United States withholding tax or are subject to United States withholding tax at a reduced rate under an applicable statute or tax
treaty shall provide to Borrower and Agent (i) a properly completed and executed Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or Form W-8ECI or other applicable
form, certificate or document prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service of the United States of America certifying as to such Foreign Lender's entitlement to such exemption or reduced rate of
withholding with respect to payments to be made to such Foreign Lender under this Agreement, (a "Certificate of Exemption"), or (ii) a letter from any such Foreign Lender stating that it is not
entitled to any such exemption or reduced rate of withholding (a "Letter of Non-Exemption"). Prior to becoming a Lender under this Agreement and within fifteen (15) days after a
reasonable written request by Borrower or Agent from time to time thereafter, each Foreign Lender that becomes a Lender under this Agreement shall provide a Certificate of Exemption or a Letter of
Non-Exemption to Borrower and Agent. 

        If
a Foreign Lender is entitled to an exemption with respect to payments to be made to such Foreign Lender under this Agreement (or to a reduced rate of withholding) and does not provide
a Certificate of Exemption to Borrower and Agent within the time periods set forth in the preceding paragraph, Borrower shall withhold taxes from payments to such Foreign Lender at the applicable
statutory rates and Borrower shall not be required to pay any additional amounts as a result of such withholding; provided,  however, that all such
withholding shall cease upon delivery by such Foreign Lender of a Certificate of Exemption to Borrower and Agent.
 

        2.10 Required Termination and Prepayment. If on any date any Lender shall have reasonably determined (which determination
shall be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties) that the making or continuation of its LIBOR Loans has become unlawful or impossible by compliance by such Lender in good faith with any
law, governmental rule, regulation or order (whether or not having the force of law and whether or not failure to comply therewith would be unlawful), then, and in any such event, that Lender shall
promptly give notice (by telephone confirmed in writing) to Borrower and Agent of that determination. Subject to prior withdrawal of a Notice of Borrowing or prepayment of LIBOR Loans as contemplated
by subsection 2.12, the obligation of such Lender to make or maintain its LIBOR Loans during any such period shall be terminated at the earlier of the
termination of the Interest Period then in effect or when required by law and Borrower shall no later than the termination of the Interest Period in effect at the time any such determination pursuant
to this subsection 2.10 is made or, earlier when required by law, repay or prepay LIBOR Loans together with all interest accrued thereon or convert
LIBOR Loans to Base Rate Loans. 

        2.11 Optional Prepayment/Replacement of Lenders. Within fifteen (15) days after receipt by Borrower of:
(i) written notice and demand from any Lender for payment of additional costs as provided in subsection 2.8 or subsection
2.9, or (ii) written notice of any Lender's inability to make LIBOR Loans as provided in subsection 2.10, (any such
Lender demanding such payment or having such inability being referred to herein as an "Affected Lender"), Borrower may, at its option notify Agent and such Affected Lender of its intention to take one
of the actions set forth herein in subparagraphs (A) or (B) below. 

        (A)  Replacement of an Affected Lender. Borrower may obtain, at Borrower's expense, a replacement Lender ("Replacement
Lender") for an Affected Lender, which Replacement Lender shall be reasonably satisfactory to Agent. In the event Borrower obtains a Replacement Lender that will purchase all outstanding Obligations
owed to such Affected Lender and assume its Commitments hereunder within ninety (90) days following notice of Borrower's intention to do so, the Affected Lender shall sell and assign its Loans
and Commitments to such Replacement Lender in accordance with the provisions of subsection 9.5 (it being understood that no administrative fee shall be
payable under subsection 9.5 in connection with such assignment); provided,  however, 

17

 

Borrower
has in any case where such replacement occurs as the result of a demand for payment of certain costs pursuant to subsection 2.8 or  subsection 2.9, paid all
increased costs for which such Affected Lender is entitled to under subsection
2.8 or subsection 2.9 through the date of such sale and assignment; or 

        (B)  Prepayment of an Affected Lender. Borrower may prepay in full all outstanding Obligations owed to an Affected Lender and
terminate such Affected Lender's Commitments. Borrower shall, within ninety (90) days following notice of its intention to do so, prepay in full all outstanding Obligations owed to such
Affected Lender, including such Affected Lender's increased costs for which it is entitled to reimbursement under this Agreement through the date of such prepayment, but excluding the prepayment fee
referenced in subsection 2.3(C) and terminate such Affected Lender's Commitments. 

        2.12 Compensation. Borrower shall promptly compensate Agent for the benefit of Lenders (Agent's calculation of such amounts
shall be in accordance with its internal credit policies and reasonable commercial banking practices and, absent manifest error, be conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto), for any losses,
expenses and liabilities including, without limitation, any loss (including interest paid) sustained by such Lender in connection with the re-employment of such funds: (i) if for
any reason (other than a default by any Lender) a borrowing of any LIBOR Loan does not occur on a date specified therefor in a Notice of Borrowing or a telephonic request of borrowing by Borrower;
(ii) if any prepayment of any of its LIBOR Loans occurs on a date that is not the last day of an Interest Period applicable to that Loan (regardless of the source of such prepayment and whether
voluntary, by acceleration or otherwise); (iii) if any prepayment of any of its LIBOR Loans is not made on any date specified in a notice of prepayment given by Borrower; or (iv) as a
consequence of any other default by Borrower to repay its LIBOR Loans when required by the terms of this Agreement; provided that during the period while any such amounts have not been paid, Agent
may, in its sole discretion, (a) in accordance with subsection 2.4(A), elect to honor the automatic request by Borrower for a Revolving Advance
for such amount pursuant to subsection 2.1(F) or (b) reserve an equal amount from amounts otherwise available to be borrowed under the Revolving
Loan. 

        2.13 Booking of LIBOR Loans. Each Lender may make, carry or transfer LIBOR Loans at, to, or for the account of, any of its
branch offices or the office of an affiliate of such Lender. 

        2.14 Assumptions Concerning Funding of LIBOR Loans. Calculation of all amounts payable to each Lender under  subsection 2.12 shall be made as though each Lender had actually
funded its relevant LIBOR Loan through the purchase of a LIBOR deposit bearing interest
at LIBOR in an amount equal to the amount of that LIBOR Loan and having maturity comparable to the relevant Interest Period and through the transfer of such LIBOR deposit from an offshore office to a
domestic office in the United States of America; provided, however, each Lender may fund each of its
LIBOR Loans in any manner it sees fit and the foregoing assumption shall be utilized only for the calculation of amounts payable under subsection 2.12. 

SECTION
3. CONDITIONS TO LOANS

        The
obligations of Agent and each Lender to make Loans and the obligation of Agent or any Lender to issue Lender Letters of Credit on the Closing Date and on each Funding Date are
subject to satisfaction of all of the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and in the Conditions Rider, attached hereto and the accuracy of all the representations and warranties of
Borrower and the other Loan Parties set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents. 

SECTION
4. BORROWER'S REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES

AND CERTAIN COVENANTS

        To
induce Agent and each Lender to enter into the Loan Documents, to make and to continue to make Loans and to issue and to continue to issue Lender Letters of Credit or risk
participations to the 

18

 

banks
that issue Bank Letters of Credit, Borrower represents, warrants and covenants to Agent and each Lender that the following statements are and will be true, correct and complete and, unless
specifically limited, shall remain so for so long as any of the Commitments hereunder shall be in effect and until payment in full of all Obligations: 

        4.1   Organization, Powers, Capitalization. 

        (A)  Organization and Powers. Each of the Loan Parties is a Person duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under
the laws of its jurisdiction of organization and qualified to do business in all states where such qualification is required except where failure to be so qualified could not reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Each of the Loan Parties has all requisite organizational power and authority to own and operate its properties, to carry on its business as now conducted
and proposed to be conducted and to enter into each Loan Document. 

        (B)  Capitalization. As of the Closing Date, the authorized capital stock or equivalent ownership interest of each of the Loan
Parties and its respective Subsidiaries is as set forth on Schedule 4.1(B), including all preemptive or other outstanding rights, options,
warrants, conversion rights or similar agreements or understandings for the purchase or acquisition from any Loan Party of any shares of capital stock or other securities or ownership interests of any
such entity. All issued and outstanding shares of capital stock or equivalent ownership interests of each of the Loan Parties are duly authorized and validly issued, fully paid, nonassessable, free
and clear of all Liens other than those in favor of Agent for the benefit of Agent and Lenders, and such shares or equivalent ownership interests were issued in compliance with all applicable state
and federal and foreign laws concerning the issuance of securities. Each Loan Party will promptly notify Lender of any material change in its ownership or organizational structure. 

        4.2   Authorization of Borrowing, No Conflict. Borrower has the corporate power and authority to incur the Obligations and to
grant security interests in the Collateral. On the Closing Date, the execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents by each Loan Party signatory thereto will have been duly authorized by
all necessary organizational and owner action. The execution, delivery and performance by each Loan Party of each Loan Document to which it is a party and the consummation of the transactions
contemplated by the Loan Documents by each Loan Party do not contravene any applicable law, the corporate organizational or regulatory documentation of any Loan Party or any material agreement or
order by which any Loan Party or any Loan Party's property is bound. The Loan Documents are the legally valid and binding obligations of the applicable Loan Parties respectively, each enforceable
against the Loan Parties, as applicable, in accordance with their respective terms. 

        4.3   Financial Condition. All financial statements concerning Borrower and its Subsidiaries furnished by or on behalf of
Borrower or its Subsidiaries to Agent or any Lender pursuant to this Agreement have been prepared in accordance with GAAP consistently applied throughout the periods involved (except as disclosed
therein) and present fairly the financial condition of Persons covered thereby as at the dates thereof and the results of their operations for the periods then ended. The Projections delivered by
Borrower will be prepared in light of the past operations of the business of Borrower and its Subsidiaries, and such Projections will represent the reasonable good faith estimate of Borrower and its
senior management concerning the most probable course of its business as of the date such Projections are delivered. 

        4.4   Indebtedness and Liabilities. As of the Closing Date, neither Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries has (a) any
Indebtedness except as reflected on the most recent financial statements delivered to Agent and Lenders; or (b) any Liabilities other than as reflected on the most recent financial statements
delivered to Agent and Lenders or as incurred in the ordinary course of business following the date of the most recent financial statements delivered to Agent and Lenders. Borrower shall promptly
deliver copies of all notices given or received by Borrower and any of its Subsidiaries 

19

 

with
respect to noncompliance with any term or condition related to any Subordinated Debt or any other Indebtedness in excess of $100,000, and shall promptly notify Agent of any potential or actual
Event of Default with respect to any Subordinated Debt or any other Indebtedness in excess of $100,000. 

        4.5   Account Warranties and Covenants. Except as otherwise disclosed to Agent in writing, as to each Account that, at the time
of its creation, to the best of Borrower's knowledge, the Account is a valid, bona fide account, representing an undisputed indebtedness incurred by the named account debtor for goods actually sold
and delivered or for services completely rendered; there are no setoffs, offsets or counterclaims, genuine or otherwise, against the Account; the Account does not represent a sale to an Affiliate or a
consignment, sale or return or a bill and hold transaction; no agreement exists permitting any deduction or discount (other than the discount stated on the invoice); Borrower is the lawful owner of
the Account and has the right to assign the same to Agent, for the benefit of Agent and Lenders; the Account is free of all security interests, liens and encumbrances other than those in favor of
Agent and Permitted Encumbrances on behalf of itself and Lenders, and the Account is due and payable in accordance with its terms. Borrower shall, at its own expense: (a) cause all invoices
evidencing Accounts and all copies thereof to bear a notice that such invoices are payable to the lockboxes established in accordance with subsection
4.25 and (b) use its best efforts to assure prompt payment of all amounts due or to become due under the Accounts. Without Agent's prior written consent, which Borrower
may presume until Agent notifies Borrower to the contrary, no discounts, credits or allowances in excess of $250,000 will be issued, granted or allowed by Borrower to customers and no returns will be
accepted. Borrower will promptly notify Agent in the event that a customer alleges any dispute or claim with respect to an Account or of any other circumstances known to Borrower which has a
reasonable likelihood to impair the validity or collectibility of an Account in excess of $250,000. Agent shall have the right, at any time or times hereafter, to verify the validity, amount or any
other matter relating to an Account, by mail, telephone or in person. After the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default, Borrower shall not, without the prior consent of Agent, adjust, settle
or compromise the amount or payment of any Account, or release wholly or partly any customer or obligor thereof, or allow any credit or discount thereon, other than an individual account equal to or
less than $250,000 (provided the aggregate amount of such individual Accounts does not exceed $1,000,000). 

        4.6   Names and Locations. Schedule 4.6 sets forth all names, trade
names, fictitious names and business names under which Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries currently conducts business or has at any time during the five years preceding the Closing Date conducted

notice of: (a) any change of name or of any new trade name or fictitious business name, (b) change of principal place of business, (c) any change in the location of such party's
accounting records or the Collateral, or (d) any new location for such Person's accounting records or any requested change to  Schedule 2.1D. Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries will give
Agent monthly written reports as to new locations for such Person's Collateral
(other than a new location which Borrower intends to be added to Schedule 2.1D.) 

        4.7   Title to Properties; Liens. Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries has good, sufficient and legal title to or valid
leasehold interests in to all of its respective material properties and assets, in each case, free and clear of all Liens except Permitted Encumbrances. 

20

   
        4.8   Litigation; Adverse Facts. There are no judgments outstanding against any Loan Party or affecting any property of any
Loan Party nor is there any action, charge, claim, demand, suit, proceeding, petition, governmental investigation or arbitration now pending or, to the best knowledge of Borrower after due inquiry,
threatened against or affecting any Loan Party or any property of any Loan Party which could reasonably be expected to result in any Material Adverse Effect. Promptly upon any officer of Borrower or
its Subsidiaries obtaining knowledge of (a) the institution of any action, suit, proceeding , governmental investigation or arbitration against or affecting any Loan Party or any property of
any Loan Party not previously disclosed by Borrower to Agent or (b) any material development in any action, suit, proceeding, governmental investigation or arbitration at any time pending
against or affecting any Loan Party or any property of any Loan Party which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, Borrower will promptly give notice thereof to Agent and
provide such other information as may be reasonably available to enable Agent and its counsel to evaluate such matter. 

        4.9   Payment of Taxes. All material tax returns and reports of Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries required to be filed by
any of them have been timely filed and are complete and accurate in all material respects. All taxes, assessments, fees and other governmental charges which are due and payable by Borrower and each of
its Subsidiaries have been paid when due; provided that no such tax need be paid if Borrower or one of its Subsidiaries is contesting same in good faith
by appropriate proceedings promptly instituted and diligently conducted and if Borrower or such Subsidiary has established appropriate reserves as shall be required in conformity with GAAP. As of the
Closing Date, none of the income tax returns of Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries are under audit and Borrower shall promptly notify Agent in the event that any of Borrower's or any of its
Subsidiaries' tax returns become the subject of an audit; provided, however, that Agent need not be
notified as to any such audit involving a foreign Subsidiary if the amount of tax expense on such foreign Subsidiary's tax return is less than $1,000,000. No tax liens have been filed against Borrower
or any of its Subsidiaries unless the aggregate amount of tax liability secured by such liens is equal to or less than $250,000. The charges, accruals and reserves on the books of Borrower and each of
its Subsidiaries in respect of any taxes or other governmental charges are in accordance with GAAP. Borrower's federal tax identification number is 75-1559633. 

        4.10 Performance of Agreements. None of the Loan Parties and none of their respective Subsidiaries is in default in the
performance, observance or fulfillment of any of the obligations, covenants or conditions contained in any material contractual obligation of any such Person, and no condition exists that, with the
giving of notice or the lapse of time or both, would constitute such a default (except as could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect). Borrower shall promptly notify Agent of
(a) the occurrence of any default or breach under any material contractual obligation of any Loan Party, (b) the termination of any material contractual obligation of any Loan Party, or
(c) the amendment or modification of any material contractual obligation of any Loan Party, in any such case described in clauses (a), (b) and (c) that, individually or in the
aggregate, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

        4.11 Employee Benefit Plans. Borrower, each of its Subsidiaries and each
ERISA Affiliate is in compliance, and will continue to remain in compliance, in all material respects with all applicable provisions of ERISA, the IRC and all other applicable laws and the regulations
and interpretations thereof with respect to all Employee Benefit Plans. No material liability has been incurred by Borrower, any Subsidiaries or any
ERISA Affiliate which remains unsatisfied for any funding obligation, taxes or penalties with respect to any Employee Benefit Plan. Neither Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries shall establish any new
Employee Benefit Plan or amend any existing Employee Benefit Plan if the liability or increased liability resulting from such establishment or amendment is material. 

        4.12 Intellectual Property. Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries owns, is licensed to use or otherwise has the right to use,
all Intellectual Property used in or necessary for the conduct of its 

21

        4.13 Broker's Fees. No broker's or finder's fee or commission will be payable with respect to any of the transactions
contemplated hereby. 

        4.14 Environmental Compliance. Each Loan Party is in compliance with all applicable Environmental Laws, except as to any
non-compliance which would not have a Material Adverse Effect. There are no claims, liabilities, Liens, investigations, litigation, administrative proceedings, whether pending or
threatened, or judgments or orders relating to any Hazardous Materials asserted or threatened against any Loan Party or relating to any real property currently or formerly owned, leased or operated by
any Loan Party, except such as which would not have a Material Adverse Effect. 

        4.15 Solvency. From and after the date of this Agreement, to the best of Borrower's knowledge, Borrower: (a) owns
assets the fair value of which are greater than the total amount of its liabilities (including contingent liabilities); (b) has capital that is not unreasonably small in relation to its
business as presently conducted or any contemplated or undertaken transaction; and (c) does not intend to incur and does not believe that it will incur debts beyond its ability to pay such
debts as they become due. 

        4.16 Disclosure. No representation or warranty of Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries or any other Loan Party contained in this
Agreement, the financial statements, the other Loan Documents, or any other document, certificate or written statement furnished to Agent or any Lender by or on behalf of any such Person (as modified
or supplemented by other information so furnished) for use in connection with the Loan Documents contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted, omits or will omit to state a material
fact necessary in order to make the statements contained herein, provided that with respect to any Projections, the Borrower represents that such represent reasonable good faith estimate of Borrower
and its senior management concerning the probable course of its business as of the date such Projections are delivered or therein not misleading in light of the circumstances in which the same were
made, provided that with respect to any Projections, the Borrower represents that such represent reasonable good faith estimate of Borrower and its senior management concerning the probable course of
its business as of the date such Projections are delivered. There is no material fact known to Borrower that has had or could have a Material Adverse Effect and that has not been disclosed herein or
in such other documents, certificates and statements furnished to Agent or any Lender for use in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby. 

        4.17 Insurance. Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries maintains adequate insurance policies for public liability, property
damage, product liability, and business interruption with respect to its business and properties and the business and properties of its Subsidiaries against loss or damage of the kinds customarily
carried or maintained by corporations of established reputation engaged in similar businesses and in amounts acceptable to Agent, in its reasonable credit judgment. Borrower shall cause Agent to be
named as loss payee on all insurance policies relating to any Collateral and shall cause Agent to be named as additional insured under all liability policies, in each case pursuant to appropriate
endorsements in form and substance satisfactory to Agent and shall collaterally assign to Agent, for itself and on behalf of Lenders, as security for the payment of the Obligations all business
interruption insurance of Borrower. No notice of cancellation has been received with respect to such policies and Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries is in compliance with all conditions contained
in such policies or if any such notice of cancellation has been received, no lapse in insurance coverage occurs and replacement insurance coverage is obtained in compliance with the terms and
conditions of this subsection 4.17. Borrower shall apply any proceeds received from any policies of insurance relating to any Collateral to the
Obligations as set forth in subsection 2.4(E) and subsection 2.4(B)(3). In the event Borrower fails to
provide Agent with evidence of the insurance coverage required by this 

22

 

Agreement,
Agent may, but is not required to, purchase insurance at Borrower's expense to protect Agent's and the Lender's interests in the Collateral. This insurance may, but need not, protect
Borrower's interests. The coverage purchased by Agent may not pay any claim made by Borrower or any claim that is made against Borrower in connection with the Collateral. Borrower may later cancel any
insurance purchased by Agent, but only after providing Agent with evidence that Borrower has obtained insurance as required by this Agreement. If Agent purchases insurance for the Collateral, Borrower
will be responsible for the costs of that insurance, including interest thereon and other charges imposed on Agent in connection with the placement of the insurance, until the effective date of the
cancellation or expiration of the insurance, and such costs may be added to the Obligations. The costs of the insurance may be more than the cost of insurance Borrower is able to obtain on its own. 

        4.18 Compliance with Laws. Except as set forth on Schedule 4.18,
neither Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries is in violation of any material law, ordinance, rule, regulation, order, policy, guideline or other requirement of any domestic or foreign government or
any instrumentality or agency thereof, having jurisdiction over the conduct of its business or the ownership of its properties, including, without limitation, any Environmental Law, which violation
would subject Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or any of their respective officers to criminal liability or have a Material Adverse Effect and no such violation has been alleged. 

        4.19 Bank Accounts. Schedule 4.19 sets forth the account numbers and
locations of all bank accounts of Borrower and its Subsidiaries as of the Closing Date. Borrower shall not amend or terminate any Blocked Account or lockbox agreement without Agent's prior written
consent and Borrower shall not establish any new bank accounts without Agent's prior written consent, which consent as to establishment of new bank accounts shall not be unreasonably withheld. 

        4.20 Employee Matters. Except as set forth on Schedule 4.20,
(a) no Loan Party nor any of such Loan Party's employees is subject to any collective bargaining agreement, (b) no petition for certification or union election is pending with respect to
the employees of any Loan Party and no union or collective bargaining unit has sought such certification or recognition with respect to the employees of any Loan Party and (c) there are no
strikes, slowdowns, work stoppages or controversies pending or, to the best knowledge of Borrower, threatened between any Loan Party and its respective employees, other than employee grievances
arising in the ordinary course of business, which could reasonably be expected to have, either individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect. Except as set forth on  Schedule 4.20, as
amended from time to time, neither Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries is subject to an employment contract.
 

        4.21 Governmental Regulation. None of the Loan Parties is subject to regulation under the Public Utility Holding Company Act
of 1935, the Federal Power Act or the Investment Company Act of 1940 or to any federal or state statute or regulation limiting its ability to incur indebtedness for borrowed money. 

        4.22 Access to Accountants and Management. Borrower authorizes Agent and Lenders to discuss the financial condition and
financial statements of Borrower and its Subsidiaries with Borrower's Accountants upon reasonable notice to Borrower of its intention to do so, and authorizes Borrower's Accountants to respond to all
of Agent's inquiries. Agent and each Lender may, with the consent of Agent, which will not be unreasonably denied, confer with Borrower's management directly regarding Borrower's business, operations
and financial condition. 

        4.23 Inspection. Subject to the provisions of Section 10.18, Borrower
shall permit Agent and any authorized representatives designated by Agent to visit and inspect any of the properties of Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, including their financial and accounting
records, and, in conjunction with such inspection, to make copies and take extracts therefrom, and to discuss their affairs, finances and business with their officers and Borrower's Accountants, at
such reasonable times during normal business hours and as often as may be reasonably requested. Each Lender may with the consent of 

23

 

Agent,
which will not be unreasonably denied, accompany Agent on any such visit or inspection. If Agent or Lenders schedules any meeting with the Borrower's Accountants, Agent and/or Lenders agree
that an officer of the Borrower shall have the right to be present at any such meeting. 

        4.24 Collateral Records. Borrower shall keep full and accurate books and records relating to the Collateral. 

        4.25 Collection of Accounts and Payments. Borrower shall establish lockboxes and blocked accounts (collectively, "Blocked
Accounts") in Borrower's name with such banks ("Collecting Banks") as are acceptable to Agent (subject to irrevocable instructions acceptable to Agent as hereinafter set forth) to which all account
debtors shall directly remit all payments on Accounts and in which Borrower will immediately deposit all payments made for Inventory or other payments constituting proceeds of Collateral in the
identical form in which such payment was made, whether by cash or check. The Collecting Banks shall acknowledge and agree, in a manner satisfactory to Agent, that all payments made to the Blocked
Accounts are the sole and exclusive property of Agent, for its benefit and for the benefit of Lenders, and that the Collecting Banks have no right to setoff against the Blocked Accounts and that all
such payments received will be promptly transferred to Agent's Account subject to the payment of the collecting Banks' fees, chargebacks and other customary exceptions, to the extent, if any, provided
for in the documentation establishing the Blocked Accounts. Borrower hereby agrees that all payments made to such Blocked Accounts or otherwise received by Agent and whether on the Accounts or as
proceeds of other Collateral or otherwise will be the sole and exclusive property of Agent, for the benefit of itself and Lenders. Borrower shall irrevocably instruct each Collecting Bank to promptly
transfer all payments or deposits to the Blocked Accounts into Agent's Account. If Borrower, or any if its Affiliates, employees, agents or other Person acting for or in concert with Borrower, shall
receive any monies, checks, notes, drafts or any other payments relating to and/or proceeds of Accounts or other Collateral, Borrower or such Person shall hold such instrument or funds in trust for
Agent, and, immediately upon receipt thereof, shall remit the same or cause the same to be remitted, in kind, to the Blocked Accounts or to Agent at its address set forth in  subsection 10.3 below.

        Borrower
may amend any one or more of the Schedules referred in this Section 4 (subject to prior notice to Agent, as applicable)
and any representation, warranty, or covenant contained herein which refers to any such Schedule shall from and after the date of any such amendment refer to such Schedule as so amended;  provided however, that in no event shall the amendment of any such Schedule constitute a waiver by Agent and Lenders of any Default or Event of Default
that exists notwithstanding the amendment of such Schedule. 

        4.26 Inactive Subsidiaries. Schedule 4.26, as updated from time to
time, sets forth all of the Borrower's current inactive Subsidiaries and identifies the book value of all of the assets and the total number of employees for each such inactive Subsidiary. Borrower
will promptly notify Lender of any material change in either the total book value of the assets or the number of employees with respect to any such Subsidiary. 

        4.27 Obligations Constitute Senior Indebtedness under Senior Subordinated Note. The Obligations constitute "Senior
Indebtedness" pursuant to and as such term is defined in the Senior Subordinated Note, and this Agreement and the other Loan Documents collectively constitute the "Credit Agreement" pursuant to and as
such term is defined in the Senior Subordinated Note. 

SECTION
5. REPORTING AND OTHER AFFIRMATIVE COVENANTS

        Borrower
covenants and agrees that, so long as any of the Commitments hereunder shall be in effect and until payment in full of all Obligations, Borrower shall perform, and shall cause
each of its Subsidiaries to perform, all covenants in this Section 5. 

        5.1   Financial Statements and Other Reports. Borrower will deliver to Agent the financial statements and other reports

        (A)  Title Insurance. On the Closing Date (or within sixty (60) days following delivery of any Mortgage with respect to

Property or Additional Mortgaged Property, free and clear of all defects and encumbrances except Permitted Encumbrances. The Mortgage Policies shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to
Agent and shall include an endorsement insuring against the effect of future advances under this Agreement, for mechanics' liens and for any other matter that Agent may reasonably request to the
extent such endorsement is available under relevant local law. In the case of each leasehold constituting Mortgaged Property or Additional Mortgaged Property, Agent shall have received such estoppel
letters, consents and waivers from the landlords and non-disturbance agreements from any holders of mortgages or deeds of trust on such real estate as may have been requested by Agent,
which letters shall be in form and substance satisfactory to Agent.

25

 

        5.7   Use of Proceeds and Margin Security. Borrower shall use the proceeds of all Loans for proper business purposes (as
described in the recitals to this Agreement) consistent with all applicable laws, statutes, rules and regulations. No portion of the proceeds of any Loan shall be used by Borrower or any of its
Subsidiaries for the purpose of purchasing or carrying margin stock within the meaning of Regulation U, or in any manner that might cause the borrowing or the application of such proceeds to
violate Regulation T or Regulation X or any other regulation of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System or to violate the Exchange Act. 

        5.8   Bailee. If any Collateral is at any time in the possession or control of any warehouseman, bailee or any of Borrower's
agents or processors, Borrower shall, upon the request of Agent, notify such warehouseman, bailee, agent or processor of the security interests in favor of Agent, for the benefit of Agent and Lenders,
created hereby and shall instruct such Person to hold all such Collateral for Agent's account subject to Agent's instructions. 

        5.9   Third Party Inventory. All inventory and products owned by Persons other than Borrower and located on any premises owned,

ninetieth (90th) day after the Closing Date all executed and issued documentation (in form and substance satisfactory to Agent) necessary, in the judgment of Agent (i) to grant
Agent, for the benefit of Lenders, a perfected first priority Lien in all the Accounts and Inventory of each active foreign Subsidiary of Borrower (other than any Subsidiary organized under the laws
of the country of Japan and other than BancTec (Canada), Inc., a Subsidiary organized under the laws of Canada) as security for the Obligations, provided that the amount of the Obligations
secured by such Lien shall be limited to the extent necessary, if at all, to avoid any conflict with the provisions of the Unsecured Senior Notes Indenture, and (ii) to guarantee by such
Subsidiaries payment of the Obligations, provided that the amount of the Obligations guaranteed by any such guaranty shall be limited to the extent necessary, if at all, to avoid any conflict with the
provisions of the Unsecured Senior Notes Indenture. The parties hereto agree that if at any time because of actual or reasonably contemplated future undistributed earnings and profits of any such
foreign Subsidiary the existence of such guaranty and/or the pledge of such assets creates an actual or reasonably likely material liability for Borrower under the income tax laws of the United States
or any state or municipality thereof, Agent and Borrower will in good faith negotiate changes to the provisions of this Agreement dealing with loans, advances and other transactions between such
foreign Subsidiary and Borrower in order to minimize such adverse tax consequences. The parties hereto further agree that the relevant guaranty shall be terminated and the relevant pledge of assets
released as to any such foreign Subsidiary which obtains working capital financing from a local lender in compliance with the provisions of subsection
7.1(i). 

        5.11 Pledge of Assets and Execution of Guaranties by Inactive Subsidiaries which become Active Subsidiaries. In the event any

Obligations secured by such Lien shall be limited to the extent necessary, if at all, to avoid any conflict with the provisions of the Unsecured Senior Notes Indenture, and (ii) to guarantee by
such Subsidiaries payment of the Obligations, provided that the amount of the Obligations guaranteed by any such guaranty shall be limited to the extent necessary, if at all, to avoid any conflict
with the provisions of the Unsecured Senior Notes Indenture.

the benefit of Lenders, a perfected first priority Lien in all assets of BancTec (Canada), Inc., a Canadian Subsidiary of Borrower, as security for the Obligations, provided that the amount of
the Obligations secured by such Lien shall be limited to the extent necessary, if at all, to avoid any conflict with the provisions of the Unsecured Senior Notes Indenture and (ii) to make
BancTec (Canada), Inc. a "co-borrower" under this Agreement. 

        5.13 Pledge of Assets and Execution of Guaranty by BancTec (Puerto Rico), Inc.. Borrower shall deliver to Agent by the

the Closing Date, for each state where the failure to be so qualified would have a Material Adverse Effect, a current certificate issued by the Secretary of State or comparable official of such state
certifying that Borrower is duly qualified to do business and is in good standing in such state.

        (L)  Solvency. Borrower ceases to be solvent (as represented by Borrower in subsection
4.15) or admits in writing its present or prospective inability to pay its debts as they become due; or 

32

  

        (M) Injunction. Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries is enjoined, restrained or in any way prevented by the order of any court
or any administrative or regulatory agency from conducting all or any material part of its business and such order continues for thirty (30) days or more; or 

        (N)  Invalidity of Loan Documents. Any of the Loan Documents for any reason, other than a partial or full release in
accordance with the terms thereof, ceases to be in full force and effect or is declared to be null and void, or any Loan Party denies that it has any further liability under any Loan Documents to
which it is party, or gives notice to such effect; or 

        (O)  Failure of Security. Except as to Collateral with the lower of book or fair market value of less than $250,000 in the
aggregate, Agent, on behalf of itself and Lenders, does not have or ceases to have a valid and perfected first priority security interest in the Collateral (subject to Permitted Encumbrances), in each
case for any reason other than the failure of Agent or any Lender to take any action within its control. 

        (P)   Damage, Strike, Casualty. Any material damage to, or loss, theft or destruction of, any Collateral, whether or not
insured, or any strike, lockout, labor dispute, embargo, condemnation, act of God or public enemy, or other casualty which causes, for more than fifteen (15) consecutive days, the cessation or
substantial curtailment of revenue producing activities at any facility of Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries if any such event or circumstance could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect; or 

        (Q)  Licenses and Permits. The loss, suspension or revocation of, or failure to renew, any license or permit now held or
hereafter acquired by Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, if such loss, suspension, revocation or failure to renew could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; or 

        (R)  Forfeiture. There is filed against Borrower or any Guarantor any civil or criminal action, suit or proceeding under any
federal or state racketeering statute (including, without limitation, the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organization Act of 1970), which action, suit or proceeding (1) is not dismissed
within one hundred twenty (120) days; and (2) could reasonably be expected to result in the confiscation or forfeiture of any material portion of the Collateral. 

        8.2   Suspension of Commitments. Upon the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, notwithstanding any grace period or
right to cure, Agent may or upon demand by Requisite Lenders shall, without notice or demand, immediately cease making additional Loans and the Commitments shall be suspended;  provided that, in the case
of a Default, if the subject condition or event is waived or cured within any applicable grace or cure period, the
Commitments shall be reinstated. 

        8.3   Acceleration. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default described in the foregoing subsections
8.1(G) or 8.1(H), all Obligations shall automatically become immediately due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or other requirements of any kind, all of which
are hereby expressly waived by Borrower, and the Commitments shall thereupon terminate. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any other Event of Default, Agent may, and upon demand by
Requisite Lenders shall, by written notice to Borrower, (a) declare all or any portion of the Obligations to be, and the same shall forthwith become, immediately due and payable and the
Commitments shall thereupon terminate and (b) demand that Borrower immediately deposit with Agent an amount equal to one hundred five percent (105%) of the Letter of Credit Reserve to enable
Agent or any Lender that has issued any Lender Letter of Credit to make payments under the Lender Letters of Credit when required and such amount shall become immediately due and payable. 

        8.4   Remedies. If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, in addition to and not in limitation of any
other rights or remedies available to Agent and Lenders at law or in equity, Agent may, and shall upon the request of Requisite Lenders, exercise in respect of the Collateral, in addition to all other
rights and remedies provided for herein or otherwise available to it, all the rights 

33

 

and
remedies of a secured party on default under the UCC (whether or not the UCC applies to the affected Collateral) and may also, to the extent not prohibited by law, (a) require Borrower to,
and Borrower hereby agrees that it will, at its expense and upon request of Agent forthwith, assemble all or part of the Collateral as directed by Agent and make it available to Agent at a place to be
designated by Agent which is reasonably convenient to both parties; (b) withdraw all cash in the Blocked Accounts and apply such monies in payment of the Obligations in the manner provided in  subsection
8.7; and (c) without notice or demand or legal process, enter upon any premises of Borrower and take possession of the Collateral.
Borrower agrees that, to the extent notice of sale of the Collateral or any part thereof shall be required by law, at least ten (10) days notice to Borrower of the time and place of any public
sale or the time after which any private sale is to be made shall constitute reasonable notification. At any sale of the Collateral (whether public or private), if permitted by law, Agent or any
Lender may bid (which bid may be, in whole or in part, in the form of cancellation of indebtedness) for the purchase of the Collateral or any portion thereof for the account of Agent or such Lender.
Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given. Borrower shall remain liable for any deficiency. Agent may adjourn any public or private
sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned. To the extent
permitted by law, Borrower hereby specifically waives all rights of redemption, stay or appraisal which it has or may have under any law now existing or hereafter enacted. Agent shall not be required
to proceed against any Collateral but may proceed against Borrower directly. 

        8.5   Appointment of Attorney-in-Fact. Borrower hereby constitutes and appoints Agent as Borrower's
attorney-in-fact with full authority in the place and stead of Borrower and in the name of Borrower, Agent or otherwise, from time to time in Agent's discretion while an Event
of Default is continuing to take any action and to execute any instrument that Agent may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, including: (a) to ask, demand,
collect, sue for, recover, compound, receive and give acquittance and receipts for moneys due and to become due under or in respect of any of the Collateral; (b) to adjust, settle or compromise
the amount or payment of any Account, or release wholly or partly any customer or obligor thereunder or allow any credit or discount thereon; (c) to receive, endorse, and collect any drafts or
other instruments, documents and chattel paper, in connection with clause (a) above; (d) to file any claims or take any action or institute any proceedings that Agent may deem necessary
or desirable for the collection of or to preserve the value of any of the Collateral or otherwise to enforce the rights of Agent and Lenders with respect to any of the Collateral; and (e) to
sign and endorse any invoices, freight or express bills, bills of lading, storage or warehouse receipts, assignments, verifications and notices in connection with Accounts and other documents relating
to the Collateral. The appointment of Agent as Borrower's attorney and Agent's rights and powers are coupled with an interest and are irrevocable until indefeasible payment in full and complete
performance of all of the Obligations and termination of the Commitments. 

        8.6   Limitation on Duty of Agent with Respect to Collateral. Beyond the safe custody thereof, Agent and each Lender shall have
no duty with respect to any Collateral in its possession or control (or in the possession or control of any agent or bailee) or with respect to any income thereon or the preservation of rights against
prior parties or any other rights pertaining thereto. Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Collateral in its possession if the Collateral is
accorded treatment substantially equal to that which Agent accords its own property. Neither Agent nor any Lender shall be liable or responsible for any loss or damage to any of the Collateral, or for
any diminution in the value thereof, by reason of the act or omission of any warehouseman, carrier, forwarding agency, consignee, broker or other agent or bailee selected by Borrower or selected by
Agent in good faith. 

        8.7   Application of Proceeds. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, upon the occurrence and
during the continuance of an Event of Default, (a) Borrower irrevocably 

34

 

waives
the right to direct the application of any and all payments at any time or times thereafter received by Agent from or on behalf of Borrower, and Agent shall have the continuing and exclusive
right to apply and to reapply any and all payments received at any time or times after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default against the Obligations in such manner as Agent
may deem advisable notwithstanding any previous application by Agent and (b) in the absence of a specific determination by Agent with respect thereto the proceeds of any sale of, or other
realization upon, all or any part of the Collateral shall be applied: first, to all fees, costs and expenses incurred by or owing to Agent and then any
Lender with respect to this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or the Collateral; second, to accrued and unpaid interest on the Obligations (including
any interest which but for the provisions of any bankruptcy or insolvency law would have accrued on such amounts); third, to the principal amounts of
the Obligations outstanding and fourth, to any other Obligations or other obligations or indebtedness of Borrower owing to Agent or any Lender under the
Loan Documents. Any balance remaining shall be delivered to Borrower or to whomever may be lawfully entitled to receive such balance or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct. 

        8.8   License of Intellectual Property. Borrower hereby assigns, transfers and conveys to Agent, for the benefit of Agent and
Lenders, effective upon the occurrence of any Event of Default hereunder, the non-exclusive right and license to use all Intellectual Property owned or used by Borrower together with any
goodwill associated therewith, all to the extent necessary to enable Agent to realize on the Collateral and any successor or assign to enjoy the benefits of the Collateral;  provided, however, such non-exclusive right and license shall terminate at such time when
each of the following is true: (i) the Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full, and (ii) the Commitments under this Agreement have terminated. This right and license shall inure
to the benefit of all successors, assigns and transferees of Agent and its successors, assigns and transferees, whether by voluntary conveyance, operation of law, assignment, transfer, foreclosure,
deed in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise. Such right and license is granted free of charge. 

        8.9   Waivers; Non-Exclusive Remedies. No failure on the part of Agent or any Lender to exercise, and no delay in
exercising and no course of dealing with respect to, any right under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise by Agent or
any Lender of any right under this Agreement or any other Loan Document preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. The rights in this Agreement and the other
Loan Documents are cumulative and shall in no way limit any other remedies provided by law. 

SECTION
9. AGENT

        9.1   Agent. 

        (A)  Appointment. Each Lender hereto and, upon obtaining an interest in any Loan, any participant, transferee or other
assignee of any Lender irrevocably appoints, designates and authorizes Heller Financial, Inc. as Agent to take such actions or refrain from taking such action as its agent on its behalf and to
exercise such powers hereunder and under the other Loan Documents as are delegated by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Neither the Agent
nor any of its directors, officers, employees or agents shall be liable for any action so taken. The provisions of this subsection 9.1are solely for the
benefit of Agent and Lenders and neither Borrower nor any other Loan Party shall have any rights as a third party beneficiary of any of the provisions hereof. In performing its functions and duties
under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, Agent shall act solely as agent of Lenders and does not assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation toward or relationship of
agency or trust with or for Borrower or any other Loan Party. Agent may perform any of its duties hereunder, or under the Loan Documents, by or through its agents or employees. 

35

 

        (B)  Nature of Duties. Agent shall have no duties, obligations or responsibilities except those expressly set forth in this
Agreement or in the Loan Documents. The duties of Agent shall be mechanical and administrative in nature. Agent shall not have by reason of this Agreement a fiduciary, trust or agency relationship
with or in respect of any Lender, Borrower or any other Loan Party. Nothing in this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents, express or implied, is intended to or shall be construed to impose upon
Agent any obligations in respect of this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents except as expressly set forth herein or therein. Each Lender shall make its own appraisal of the credit worthiness of
Borrower, and shall have independently taken whatever steps it considers necessary to evaluate the financial condition and affairs of Borrower, and Agent shall have no duty or responsibility, either
initially or on a continuing basis, to provide any Lender with any credit or other information with respect thereto (other than as expressly required herein), whether coming into its possession before
the Closing Date or at any time or times thereafter. If Agent seeks the consent or approval of any Lenders to the taking or refraining from taking any action hereunder, then Agent shall send notice
thereof to each Lender. Agent shall promptly notify each Lender any time that the Requisite Lenders have instructed Agent to act or refrain from acting pursuant hereto. 

        (C)  Rights, Exculpation, Etc. Neither Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees or agents shall be liable to any
Lender for any action taken or omitted by them hereunder or under any of the Loan Documents, or in connection herewith or therewith, except that Agent shall be liable to the extent of its own gross
negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. Agent shall not be liable for any apportionment or distribution of payments made by it in good faith and if any
such apportionment or distribution is subsequently determined to have been made in error, the sole recourse of any Lender to whom payment was due but not made, shall be to recover from other Lenders
any payment in excess of the amount to which they are determined to be entitled (and such other Lenders hereby agree to return to such Lender any such erroneous payments received by them). In
performing its functions and duties hereunder, Agent shall exercise the same care which it would in dealing with loans for its own account, but neither Agent nor any of its agents or
representatives shall be responsible to any Lender for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties herein or for the execution, effectiveness, genuineness, validity, enforceability,
collectibility, or sufficiency of this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated thereby, or for the financial condition of any Loan Party. Agent shall not be required to
make any inquiry concerning either the performance or observance of any of the terms, provisions or conditions of this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents or the financial condition of any Loan
Party, or the existence or possible existence of any Default or Event of Default. Agent may at any time request instructions from Lenders with respect to any actions or approvals which by the terms of
this Agreement or of any of the Loan Documents Agent is permitted or required to take or to grant, and if such instructions are promptly requested, Agent shall be absolutely entitled to refrain from
taking any action or to withhold any approval and shall not be under any liability whatsoever to any Person for refraining from any action or withholding any approval under any of the Loan Documents
until it shall have received such instructions from Requisite Lenders or all or such other portion of the Lenders as shall be prescribed by this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, no Lender
shall have any right of action whatsoever against Agent as a result of Agent acting or refraining from acting under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents in accordance with the
instructions of Requisite Lenders in the absence of an express requirement for a greater percentage of Lender approval hereunder for such action. 

        (D)  Reliance. Agent shall be under no duty to examine, inquire into, or pass upon the validity, effectiveness or genuineness
of this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any instrument, document or communication furnished pursuant hereto or in connection herewith. Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully
protected in relying, upon any written or oral notices, statements, 

36

 

certificates,
orders or other documents or any telephone message or other communication (including any writing, fax, telecopy or telegram) believed by it in good faith to be genuine and correct and to
have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person, and with respect to all matters pertaining to this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents and its duties hereunder or thereunder. Agent shall be
entitled to rely upon the advice of legal counsel, independent accountants, and other experts selected by Agent in its sole discretion. 

        (E)  Indemnification. Lenders will reimburse and indemnify Agent for and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses,
damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys' fees and expenses), advances or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be
imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents or any action taken or omitted by Agent under this Agreement or
any of the Loan Documents, in proportion to each Lender's Pro Rata Share, but only to the extent that any of the foregoing is not promptly reimbursed by Borrower;  provided, however, no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses,
damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses, advances or disbursements resulting from Agent's gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final
non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction. If any indemnity furnished to Agent for any purpose shall, in the opinion of Agent, be insufficient or become impaired, Agent
may call for additional indemnity and cease, or not commence, to do the acts indemnified against, even if so directed by Lenders or Requisite Lenders, until such additional indemnity is furnished. The
obligations of Lenders under this subsection 9.1(E) shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement. 

        (F)  Heller Individually. With respect to its Commitments and the Loans made by it, Heller shall have and may exercise the
same rights and powers hereunder and is subject to the same obligations and liabilities as and to the extent set forth herein for any other Lender. The terms "Lenders" or "Requisite Lenders" or any
similar terms shall, unless the context clearly otherwise indicates, include Heller in its individual capacity as a Lender or one of the Requisite Lenders. Heller, either directly or through strategic
affiliations, may lend money to, acquire equity or other ownership interests in, provide advisory services to and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust or other business with any Loan Party
or other Affiliate of Borrower as if it were not acting as Agent pursuant hereto and without any duty to account therefor to Lenders. Heller, either directly or through strategic affiliations, may
accept fees and other consideration from any Loan Party or other Affiliate of Borrower for services or loans made in connection with this Agreement or otherwise without having to account for the same
to Lenders. 

        (G)  Successor Agent. 

        (1)   Resignation. Agent may resign from the performance of all its agency functions and duties hereunder at any time by giving
at least thirty (30) Business Days' prior written notice to Borrower and the Lenders. Such resignation shall take effect upon the acceptance by a successor Agent of appointment as provided
below. 

        (2)   Appointment of Successor. Upon any such notice of resignation pursuant to clause (G)(1) above, Requisite Lenders
shall appoint a successor Agent which, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, shall be reasonably acceptable to Borrower. If a successor Agent shall not have been so appointed
within said thirty (30) Business Day period, the retiring Agent, upon notice to Borrower, shall then appoint a successor Agent who shall serve as Agent until such time, if any, as Requisite
Lenders appoint a successor Agent as provided above. 

        (3)   Successor Agent. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Agent under the Loan Documents by a successor Agent, such
successor Agent shall thereupon succeed to and 

37

 

become
vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Loan Documents. After any
retiring Agent's resignation as Agent, the provisions of this Section 9 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken
by it while it was Agent. 

        (H)  Collateral Matters. 

        (1)   Release of Collateral. Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize Agent, at its option and in its discretion, to release any
Lien granted to or held by Agent upon any Collateral (i) upon termination of the Commitments and upon payment and satisfaction of all Obligations (other than contingent indemnification
obligations to the extent no claims giving rise thereto have been asserted); or (ii) constituting property being sold or disposed of if Borrower certifies to Agent that the sale or disposition
is made in compliance with the provisions of this Agreement (and Agent may rely in good faith conclusively on any such certificate, without further inquiry). In addition, with the consent of Requisite
Lenders, Agent may release Liens granted to or held by Agent upon any Collateral having a book value of not greater than ten percent (10%) of the total book value of all Collateral, as determined by
Agent, either in a single transaction or in a series of related transactions; provided, however, in no
event will Agent, acting under the authority granted to it pursuant to this sentence, release during any calendar year Liens granted to or held by Agent upon any Collateral having a total book value
in excess of twenty percent (20%) of the total book value of all Collateral, as determined by Agent. 

        (2)   Confirmation of Authority; Execution of Releases. Without in any manner limiting Agent's authority to act without any
specific or further authorization or consent by Lenders (as set forth in subsection 9.2(H)(1) above), each Lender agrees to confirm in writing, upon
request by Agent or Borrower, the authority to release any Collateral conferred upon Agent under clauses (i) and (ii) of subsection
9.2(H)(1). Upon receipt by Agent of confirmation from the requisite percentage of Lenders (as set forth in subsection 9.1(H)(1)
above), if any, of Agent's authority to release any Liens upon any Collateral, and upon at least ten (10) Business Days prior written request by Borrower, Agent shall, and is hereby irrevocably
authorized by Lenders to, execute such documents as may be necessary to evidence the release of the Liens granted to Agent, for the benefit of Agent and Lenders, upon such Collateral;  provided,
however, that (i) Agent shall not be required to execute any such document on terms
which, in Agent's opinion, would expose Agent to liability or create any obligation or entail any consequence other than the release of such Liens without recourse or warranty, and (ii) such
release shall not in any manner discharge, affect or impair the Obligations or any Liens granted to Agent on behalf of Agent and Lenders upon (or obligations of any Loan Party, in respect of) all
interests retained by any Loan Party, including, without limitation, the proceeds of any sale, all of which shall continue to constitute part of the property covered by this Agreement or the Loan
Documents. 

        (3)   Absence of Duty. Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to any Lender or any other Person to assure that the property
covered by this Agreement or the Loan Documents exists or is owned by Borrower or is cared for, protected or insured or has been encumbered or that the Liens granted to Agent on behalf of Agent and
Lenders herein or pursuant hereto have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected or enforced or are entitled to any particular priority, or to exercise at all or in any
particular manner or under any duty of care, disclosure or fidelity, or to continue exercising, any of the rights, authorities and powers granted or available to Agent in this Agreement or in any of
the Loan Documents, it being understood and agreed that in respect of the property covered by this Agreement or the Loan Documents or any act, omission or event related thereto, Agent may act in any
manner it may deem appropriate, in its discretion, given Agent's own interest in 

38

 

property
covered by this Agreement or the Loan Documents as one of the Lenders and that Agent shall have no duty or liability whatsoever to any of the other Lenders;  provided, however, that Agent shall exercise the same care which it would in dealing with loans for its
own account. 

        (I)   Agency for Perfection. Agent and each Lender hereby appoint each other Lender as agent for the purpose of perfecting
Agent's security interest in assets which, in accordance with the Uniform Commercial Code in any applicable jurisdiction, can be perfected only by possession. Should any Lender (other than Agent)
obtain possession of any such assets, such Lender shall notify Agent thereof, and, promptly upon Agent's request therefor, shall deliver such assets to Agent or in accordance with Agent's
instructions. The Agent may file such proofs of claim or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Agent and the Lenders (including any claim for the reasonable
compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Agent and the Lenders, their respective agents, financial advisors and counsel), allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to Borrower
and/or its Subsidiaries, or any of their respective creditors or property, and shall be entitled and empowered to collect, receive and distribute any monies, securities or other property payable or
deliverable on any such claims. Any custodian in any judicial proceedings relative to Borrower and/or its Subsidiaries is hereby authorized by each Lender to make payments to the Agent and, in the
event that the Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, to pay to the Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of
the Agent, its agents, financial advisors and counsel, and any other amounts due the Agent. Nothing contained in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall be deemed to authorize the Agent to
authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Loans, or the rights of any holder thereof, or to
authorize the Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender in any such proceeding, except as specifically permitted herein. 

        (J)   Exercise of Remedies. Each Lender agrees that it will not have any right individually to enforce or seek to enforce this
Agreement or any Loan Document or to realize upon any collateral security for the Loans, unless instructed to do so by Agent, it being understood and agreed that such rights and remedies may be
exercised only by Agent. 

        9.2   Notice of Default.

        Agent
shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default except with respect to defaults in the payment of principal, interest and fees
required to be paid to Agent for the account of Lenders, unless Agent shall have received written notice from a Lender or Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of
Default and stating that such notice is a "notice of default". Agent will notify each Lender of its receipt of any such notice. 

        9.3   Action by Agent. 

        Agent
shall take such action with respect to any Default or Event of Default as may be requested by Requisite Lenders in accordance with  Section 8. Unless and until Agent has received any such request,
Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from
taking such action, with respect to any Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable or in the best interests of Lenders. 

        9.4   Amendments, Waivers and Consents. 

        (A)  Percentage of Lenders Required. Except as otherwise provided herein or in any of the other Loan Documents, no amendment,
modification, termination or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or consent to any departure by any Loan Party 

39

 

therefrom,
shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by Requisite Lenders (or, Agent, if expressly set forth herein or in any of the other Loan Documents) and the
applicable Loan Party; provided however, no amendment, modification, termination, waiver or consent shall be effective, unless in writing and signed by
all Lenders, to do any of the following: (i) increase any of the Commitments; (ii) reduce the principal of or the rate of interest on any Loan or reduce the fees payable with respect to
any Loan or Letter of Credit; (iii) extend the Termination Date or the scheduled due date for all or any portion of principal of the Loans or any interest or fees due hereunder;
(iv) amend the definition of the term "Requisite Lenders" or the percentage of Lenders which shall be required for Lenders to take any action hereunder; (v) amend or waive this  subsection 9.4
or the definitions of the terms used in this subsection 9.4 insofar as the definitions
affect the substance of this subsection 9.4; (vi) release Collateral (except if the sale, disposition or release of such Collateral is permitted
under subsection 7.3 or subsection 9.1 or under any other Loan Document); or (vii) consent to the
assignment, delegation or other transfer by any Loan Party of any of its rights and obligations under any Loan Document; provided,  further, that no
amendment, modification, termination, waiver or consent affecting the rights or duties of Agent under this
Section 9 or under any Loan Document shall in any event be effective, unless in writing and signed by Agent, in addition to the Lenders required
to take such action, and provided, further, that no amendment, modification, termination, waiver or
consent of any provision relating to the Swingline Loan shall be effective unless in writing and signed by Swingline Lender. Any amendment, modification, termination, waiver or consent effected in
accordance with this Section 9 shall be binding upon each Lender or future Lender and, if signed by a Loan Party, on such Loan Party. 

        (B)  Specific Purpose or Intent. Each amendment, modification, termination, waiver or consent shall be effective only in the
specific instance and for the specific purpose for which it was given. No amendment, modification, termination, waiver or consent shall be required for Agent to take additional Collateral. 

        (C)  Failure to Give Consent; Replacement of Non-Consenting Lender. In the event Agent requests the consent of a
Lender and does not receive a written consent or denial thereof within ten (10) Business Days after such Lender's receipt of such request, then such Lender will be deemed to have denied the
giving of such consent. If, in connection with any proposed amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement requiring the consent or approval of all Lenders
under this subsection 9.4, the consent of Requisite Lenders is obtained but the consent of one or more other Lenders whose consent is required is not
obtained, then Borrower shall have the right, so long as all such non-consenting Lenders are either replaced or prepaid as described in clauses (A) or (B) below, to either
(A) replace the non-consenting Lenders with one or more Replacement Lenders pursuant to subsection 2.11(A), as if such Lender were an
Affected Lender thereunder, but only so long as each such Replacement Lender consents to the proposed amendment, modification, termination or waiver, or (B) prepay in full the Obligations of
the non-consenting Lenders and terminate the non-consenting Lenders' Commitments pursuant to subsection 2.11(B), as if such
Lender were an Affected Lender thereunder. 

        Notwithstanding
anything in this subsection 9.4, Agent and Borrower, without the consent of either Requisite Lenders or all Lenders, may
execute amendments to this Agreement and the Loan Documents, which consist solely of the making of typographical corrections. 

        9.5   Assignments and Participations in Loans. 

        (A)  Assignments. Each Lender may assign its rights and delegate its obligations under this Agreement to an Eligible Assignee;  provided, however, (1) such Lender shall first obtain the written consent of Borrower which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld and such Lender (other 

40

 

than
Heller) shall also obtain the written consent of Agent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, (2) the amount of Commitments and Loans of the assigning Lender being assigned
shall in no event be less than the lesser of (a) $1,000,000 or (b) the entire amount of the Commitments and Loans of such assigning Lender and (3)(a) each such assignment shall be of a
pro rata portion of all such assigning Lender's Loans and Commitments hereunder, and (b) the parties to such assignment shall execute and deliver to Agent for acceptance and recording a
Assignment and Acceptance Agreement together with (i) a processing and recording fee of $3,500 payable by the assigning Lender to Agent and (ii) each of the Notes originally delivered to
the assigning Lender. The administrative fee referred to in clause (3) of the preceding sentence shall not apply to an assignment of a security interest in all or any portion of a Lender's
rights under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, as described in paragraph (D)(1) below. Upon receipt of all of the foregoing, Agent shall notify Borrower of such assignment and
Borrower shall comply with its obligations under the last sentence of subsection 2.1(G). In the case of an assignment authorized under this  subsection 9.5,
the assignee shall be considered to be a "Lender" hereunder and Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that any assignment will give
rise to a direct obligation of Borrower to the assignee. The assigning Lender shall be relieved of its obligations to make Loans hereunder with respect to the assigned portion of its Commitment.
Except during any period in which an Event of Default exists, Heller agrees that at no time shall the amount of Heller's Commitments be less than the amount of the largest Commitments held by any
other Lender. 

        (B)  Participations. Each Lender may sell participations in all or any part of any Loans or Commitments made by it to another
Person; provided, however, such Lender shall first obtain the prior written consent of Agent, which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. All amounts payable by Borrower hereunder shall be determined as if that Lender had not sold such participation and the holder of any such participation
shall not be entitled to require such Lender to take or omit to take any action hereunder except action directly effecting (1) any reduction in the principal amount or an interest rate on any
Loan in which such holder participates; (2) any extension of the Termination Date or the date fixed for any payment of interest or principal payable with respect to any Loan in which such
holder participates; and (3) any release of substantially all of the Collateral. Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that the participant under each participation shall for purposes of  subsections 2.8, 2.9, 2.10, 9.6
and 10.2 be considered to be a "Lender," provided that a participant shall not be entitled to receive
any greater payment under such Sections than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such participant. 

        (C)  No Relief of Obligations; Cooperation; Ability to Make LIBOR Loans. Except as otherwise provided in  subsection 9.5(A) no Lender shall, as between Borrower and that
Lender, be relieved of any of its obligations hereunder as a result of any sale,
assignment, transfer or negotiation of, or granting of participation in, all or any part of the Loans or other Obligations owed to such Lender. Each Lender may furnish any information concerning
Borrower and its Subsidiaries in the possession of that Lender from time to time to Eligible Assignees and participants (including prospective assignees and participants), subject to the provisions of  subsection
10.18. Borrower agrees that until such time as the Revolving Credit Commitment of Heller is no more than $30,000,000 it will use its best
efforts to assist and cooperate with Agent in any manner reasonably requested by Agent to effect the sale of a participation or an assignment described above, including without limitation assistance
in the preparation of appropriate disclosure documents or placement memoranda. As to any participation or assignment by any Lender other than Heller and as to any participation or assignment by Heller
after the Revolving Credit Commitment of Heller is reduced to no more than $30,000,000, Borrower agrees that it will use its reasonable efforts to assist and cooperate with such Lender and Heller in
such case to effect the sale of a participation or an assignment describe above. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, so long as the Requisite Lenders shall remain
capable of making LIBOR Loans, no Person shall become a Lender hereunder unless such Person shall also be capable of making LIBOR Loans. 

41

  

        (D)  Security Interests; Assignment to Affiliates. Notwithstanding any other provision set forth in this Agreement, any Lender
may at any time following written notice to Agent (1) pledge the Obligations held by it or create a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement or the other Loan
Documents in favor of any Person; provided, however (a) no such pledge or grant of security
interest to any Person shall release such Lender from its obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document and (b) the acquisition of title to such Lender's Obligations pursuant to any
foreclosure or other exercise of remedies by such Person shall be subject to the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents in all respects including, without limitation, any consent
required by subsection 9.5; and (2) subject to complying with the provisions of subsection 9.5
(A), assign all or any portion of its funded loans to an Eligible Assignee which is a Subsidiary of such Lender or its parent company, to one or more other Lenders, or to a
Related Fund. For purposes of this paragraph, a "Related Fund" shall mean, with respect to any Lender, a fund or other investment vehicle that invests in commercial loans and is managed by such Lender
or by the same investment advisor that manages such Lender or by an Affiliate of such investment advisor. 

        (E)  Recording of Assignments. Agent shall maintain at its office in Chicago, Illinois a copy of each Assignment and
Acceptance Agreement delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of Lenders, and the commitments of, and principal amount 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 presumptive evidence of the amounts due and owing to Lender in the absence of manifest error. Borrower,
Agent and each Lender may 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 Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time upon reasonable prior notice. 

        9.6   Set Off and Sharing of Payments. In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under applicable law and not by way
of limitation of any such rights, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, each Lender is hereby authorized by Borrower at any time or from time to time, with reasonably
prompt subsequent notice to Borrower (any prior or contemporaneous notice being hereby expressly waived) to set off and to appropriate and to apply any and all (a) balances held by such Lender
at any of its offices for the account of Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (regardless of whether such balances are then due to Borrower or its Subsidiaries), and (b) other property at any
time held or owing by such Lender to or for the credit or for the account of Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, against and on account of any of the Obligations; except that no Lender shall exercise
any such right without the prior written consent of Agent. Any Lender exercising its right to set off shall purchase for cash (and the other Lenders shall sell) interests in each of such other
Lender's Pro Rata Share of the Obligations as would be necessary to cause all Lenders to share the amount so set off with each other Lender in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares.
Borrower agrees, to the fullest extent permitted by law, that any Lender may exercise its right to set off with respect to amounts in excess of its Pro Rata Share of the Obligations and upon doing so
shall deliver such amount so set off to Agent for the benefit of Agent and of all Lenders in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares. 

        9.7   Disbursement of Funds. Agent may, on behalf of Lenders, disburse funds to Borrower for Loans requested. Each Lender shall
reimburse Agent on demand for all funds disbursed on its behalf by Agent, or if Agent so requests, each Lender will remit to Agent its Pro Rata Share of any Loan or Advance before Agent disburses same
to Borrower. If Agent elects to require that each Lender make funds available to Agent prior to a disbursement by Agent to Borrower, Agent shall advise each Lender by telephone, telex, fax or telecopy
of the amount of such Lender's Pro Rata Share of the Loan requested by Borrower no later than 1:00 p.m. Chicago time on the Funding Date applicable thereto, 

42

 

and
each such Lender shall pay Agent such Lender's Pro Rata Share of such requested Loan, in same day funds, by wire transfer to Agent's account on such Funding Date. 

        9.8   Settlements, Payments and Information. 

        (A)  Revolving Advances and Payments; Fee Payments. 

        (1)   Fluctuation of Revolving Loan Balance. The Revolving Loan balance may fluctuate from day to day through Agent's
disbursement of funds to, and receipt of funds from, Borrower. In order to minimize the frequency of transfers of funds between Agent and each Lender notwithstanding terms to the contrary set forth in  Section 2 and subsection 9.7, Revolving Advances and repayments (except as set forth in  subsection 2.1(E)) will be
settled according to the procedures described in this subsection 9.8.
Notwithstanding these procedures, each Lender's obligation to fund its portion of any advances made by Agent to Borrower will commence on the date such advances are made by Agent. Such payments will
be made by such Lender without set-off, counterclaim or reduction of any kind. 

        (2)   Settlement Dates. Once each week for the Revolving Loan or more frequently (including daily), if Agent so elects (each
such day being a "Settlement Date"), Agent will advise each Lender by telephone, fax or telecopy of the amount of each such Lender's Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Loan. In the event payments are
necessary to adjust the amount of such Lender's required Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Loan balance to such Lender's actual Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Loan balance as of any Settlement Date,
the party from which such payment is due will pay the other, in same day funds, by wire transfer to the other's account not later than 3:00 p.m. Chicago time on the Business Day following the
Settlement Date. 

        (3)   Settlement Definitions. For purposes of this subsection 9.8(A), the
following terms and conditions will have the meanings indicated: 

        (a)   "Daily
Loan Balance" means an amount calculated as of the end of each calendar day by subtracting (i) the cumulative principal amount paid by Agent to a Lender on
a Loan from the Closing Date through and including such calendar day, from (ii) the cumulative principal amount on a Loan advanced by such Lender to Agent on that Loan from the Closing Date
through and including such calendar day. 

        (b)   "Daily
Interest Rate" means an amount calculated by dividing the interest rate payable to a Lender on a Loan (as set forth in subsection
2.2) as of each calendar day by three hundred sixty (360). 

        (c)   "Daily
Interest Amount" means an amount calculated by multiplying the Daily Loan Balance of a Loan by the associated Daily Interest Rate on that Loan. 

        (d)   "Interest
Ratio" means a number calculated by dividing the total amount of the interest on a Loan received by Agent with respect to the immediately preceding month by
the total amount of interest on that Loan due from Borrower during the immediately preceding month. 

        (4)   Settlement Payments. On the first (1st) Business Day of each month ("Interest Settlement Date"), Agent will
advise each Lender by telephone, fax or telecopy of the amount of such Lender's share of interest and fees on each of the Loans as of the end of the last day of the immediately preceding month.
Provided that such Lender has made all payments required to be made by it under this Agreement, Agent will pay to such Lender, by wire transfer to such Lender's account (as specified by such Lender on
the signature page of this Agreement or the applicable Assignment and Acceptance Agreement, as amended by such Lender from time to time after the date hereof or in the applicable Assignment and 

43

 

Acceptance
Agreement) not later than 3:00 p.m. Chicago time on the next Business Day following the Interest Settlement Date, such Lender's share of interest and fees on each of the Loans. Such
Lender's share of interest on each Loan will be calculated for that Loan by adding together the Daily Interest Amounts for each calendar day of the prior month for that Loan and multiplying the total
thereof by the Interest Ratio for that Loan. Each Lender's share of the Unused Line Fee described in subsection 2.3(A) shall be an amount equal to
(a)(i) such Lender's average Revolving Loan Commitment during such month, less (ii) the sum of (x) such Lender's average Daily Loan
Balance of the Revolving Loans and the Swingline Loan, plus (y) such Lender's Pro Rata Share of the average daily aggregate amount of Letter of
Credit Liability, in each case for the preceding month, multiplied by (b) the percentage required by subsection
2.3(A). All other fees paid to Agent for the benefit of Lenders hereunder shall be paid and calculated based on each Lender's Commitment in the appropriate Loan facilities on
which such fees are associated. 

        (B)  [Intentionally
Omitted] 

        (C)  Return of Payments. 

        (1)   Recovery After Non-Receipt of Expected Payment. If Agent pays an amount to a Lender under this Agreement in
the belief or expectation that a related payment has been or will be received by Agent from Borrower and such related payment is not received by Agent, then Agent will be entitled to recover such
amount from such Lender without set-off, counterclaim or deduction of any kind together with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available by
Agent to such Lender to but excluding the date of repayment to Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on
interbank compensation. 

        (2)   Recovery of Returned Payment. If Agent determines at any time that any amount received by Agent under this Agreement must
be returned to Borrower or paid to any other Person pursuant to any requirement of law, court order or otherwise, then, notwithstanding any other term or condition of this Agreement, Agent will not be
required to distribute any portion thereof to any Lender. In addition, each Lender will repay to Agent on demand any portion of such amount that Agent has distributed to such Lender, together with
interest at such rate, if any, as Agent is required to pay to Borrower or such other Person, without set-off, counterclaim or deduction of any kind. 

        9.9   Discretionary Advances. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Agent may, in its sole discretion make
Revolving Advances in an aggregate amount of not more than $10,000,000 in excess of the limitations set forth in the Borrowing Base for the purpose of preserving or protecting the Collateral or for
incurring any costs associated with collection or enforcing rights or remedies against the Collateral, or incurred in any action to enforce this Agreement or any other Loan Document. 

SECTION
10. MISCELLANEOUS

        10.1 Expenses and Attorneys' Fees. Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby shall be consummated, Borrower agrees

        10.2 Indemnity. In addition to the payment of expenses pursuant to subsection
10.1, whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby shall be consummated, Borrower agrees to indemnify, pay and hold Agent and each Lender, and the officers, directors,
employees, agents, consultants, auditors, persons engaged by Agent or any Lender, to evaluate or monitor the Collateral, affiliates and attorneys of Agent, Lender and such holders (collectively called
the "Indemnitees") harmless from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, actual losses, actual damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, claims, costs, reasonable expenses and
disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (including the fees and disbursements of counsel for such Indemnitees in connection with any investigative, administrative or judicial proceeding,

addressed shall
have previously designated by written notice to the serving party, given in accordance with this subsection 10.3. 

        10.4 Survival of Representations and Warranties and Certain Agreements. All agreements, representations and warranties made
herein shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making of the Loans hereunder. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or implied by law to the contrary, the agreements of
Borrower and Lender set forth in subsections 10.1, 10.2, 10.6, 10.11, 10.14, and 10.15 (Borrower's agreement to pay fees, agreement to indemnify Lender,
the reinstatement of Obligations, agreement as to choice of law and jurisdiction and Borrower's and Lender's waiver of a jury trial) shall survive the payment of the Loans and the termination of this
Agreement. 

        10.5 Indulgence Not Waiver. No failure or delay on the part of Agent, any Lender or any holder of any Note in the exercise of
any power, right or privilege hereunder or under any Note shall impair such power, right or privilege or be construed to be a waiver of any default or acquiescence therein, nor shall any single or
partial exercise of any such power, right or privilege preclude other or further exercise thereof or of any other right, power or privilege. 

        10.6 Marshaling; Payments Set Aside. Neither Agent nor any Lender shall be under any obligation to marshal any assets in
favor of any Loan Party or any other party or against or in payment of any or all of the Obligations. To the extent that any Loan Party makes a payment or payments to Agent and/or any Lender or Agent
and/or any Lender enforces its security interests or exercise its rights of setoff, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or setoff or any part thereof are subsequently
invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside and/or 

46

 

required
to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party under any bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause, then to the extent of such recovery, the Obligations or
part thereof originally intended to be satisfied, and all Liens, rights and remedies therefor, shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such
enforcement or setoff had not occurred. 

        10.7 Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents embody the entire agreement among the parties hereto and
supersede all prior commitments, agreements, representations, and understandings, whether written or oral, relating to the subject matter hereof, and may not be contradicted or varied by evidence of
prior, contemporaneous, or subsequent oral agreements or discussions of the parties hereto. 

        10.8 Severability. The invalidity, illegality or unenforceability in any jurisdiction of any provision in or obligation under
this Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall not affect or impair the validity, legality or enforceability of the remaining provisions or obligations under this Agreement, or the other Loan
Documents. 

        10.9 Lenders' Obligations Several; Independent Nature of Lenders' Rights. The obligation of each Lender hereunder is several
and not joint and neither Agent nor any Lender shall be responsible for the obligation or Commitment of any other Lender hereunder. In the event that any Lender at any time should fail to make a Loan
as herein provided, the Lenders, or any of them, at their sole option, may make the Loan that was to have been made by the Lender so failing to make such Loan. Nothing contained in any Loan Document
or any other agreement relating to the credit facility established herein and no action taken by Agent or any Lender pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection with the credit facility established
herein shall be deemed to constitute Lenders to be a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity or establish a fiduciary, trust or agency relationship among the Lenders.
The amounts payable at any time hereunder to each Lender shall be a separate and independent debt. Provided Agent fails or refuses to exercise any remedies against Borrower after receiving the
direction of the Requisite Lenders, each Lender shall be entitled to protect and enforce its rights arising out of this Agreement and it shall not be necessary for any other Lender to be joined as an
additional party in any proceeding for such purpose. 

        10.10 Headings. Section and subsection headings in this Agreement are included herein for convenience of reference only and
shall not constitute a part of this Agreement for any other purpose or be given any substantive effect. 

        10.11 APPLICABLE LAW. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND SHALL BE CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE
INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF ILLINOIS, WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICTS OF LAWS PRINCIPLES.

        10.12 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their
respective successors and assigns, provided, however, Borrower may not assign its rights or obligations
hereunder without the written consent of Lenders. 

        10.13 No Fiduciary Relationship; No Duty; Limitation of Liabilities. 

        (A)  No Fiduciary Relationship. No provision in this Agreement or in any of the other Loan Documents and no course of dealing
between the parties shall be deemed to create any fiduciary duty by Agent or any Lender to Borrower. 

        (B)  No Duty. All attorneys, accountants, appraisers, and other professional Persons and consultants retained by Agent or any
Lender shall have the right to act exclusively in the interest of Agent or such Lender and shall have no duty of disclosure, duty of loyalty, duty of care, or other duty or obligation of any type or
nature whatsoever to Borrower or any of Borrower's shareholders or any other Person. 

47

 

        (C)  Limitation of Liabilities. Neither Agent nor any Lender, nor any affiliate, officer, director, shareholder, employee,
attorney, or agent of Agent or any Lender shall have any liability with respect to, and Borrower hereby waives, releases, and agrees not to sue any of them upon, any claim for any special, indirect,
incidental, or consequential damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages that are reasonably foreseeable as a result of any breach) suffered or incurred by Borrower in connection with, arising out
of, or in any way related to, this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents. To the extent not
prohibited by applicable law, Borrower hereby waives, releases, and agrees not to sue Agent or any Lender or any of Agent's or any Lender's affiliates, officers, directors, employees, attorneys, or
agents for punitive damages in respect of any claim in connection with, arising out of, or in any way related to, this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, or any of the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby. 

        10.14 CONSENT TO JURISDICTION. BORROWER HEREBY CONSENTS TO THE JURISDICTION OF ANY STATE OR FEDERAL COURT LOCATED WITHIN THE
COUNTY OF COOK, STATE OF ILLINOIS AND IRREVOCABLY AGREES THAT, SUBJECT TO AGENT'S ELECTION, ALL ACTIONS OR PROCEEDINGS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS SHALL BE
LITIGATED IN SUCH COURTS. BORROWER EXPRESSLY SUBMITS AND CONSENTS TO THE JURISDICTION OF THE AFORESAID COURTS AND WAIVES ANY DEFENSE OF FORUM NON CONVENIENS. BORROWER HEREBY WAIVES PERSONAL SERVICE OF
ANY AND ALL PROCESS AND AGREES THAT ALL SUCH SERVICE OF PROCESS MAY BE MADE UPON BORROWER BY CERTIFIED OR REGISTERED MAIL, RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED, ADDRESSED TO BORROWER, AT THE ADDRESS SET FORTH IN
THIS AGREEMENT AND SERVICE SO MADE SHALL BE COMPLETE TEN (10) DAYS AFTER THE SAME HAS BEEN POSTED. IN ANY LITIGATION, TRIAL, ARBITRATION OR OTHER DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS
AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, ALL DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES AND AGENTS OF BORROWER OR OF ITS AFFILIATES SHALL BE DEEMED TO BE EMPLOYEES OR MANAGING AGENTS OF BORROWER FOR PURPOSES
OF ALL APPLICABLE LAW OR COURT RULES REGARDING THE PRODUCTION OF WITNESSES BY NOTICE FOR TESTIMONY (WHETHER IN A DEPOSITION, AT TRIAL OR OTHERWISE). BORROWER AGREES THAT AGENT'S OR ANY LENDER'S
COUNSEL IN ANY SUCH DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROCEEDING MAY EXAMINE ANY OF THESE INDIVIDUALS AS IF UNDER CROSS-EXAMINATION AND THAT ANY DISCOVERY DEPOSITION OF ANY OF THEM MAY BE USED IN THAT PROCEEDING AS
IF IT WERE AN EVIDENCE DEPOSITION. BORROWER IN ANY EVENT WILL USE ALL COMMERCIALLY REASONABLE EFFORTS TO PRODUCE IN ANY SUCH DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROCEEDING, AT THE TIME AND IN THE MANNER REQUESTED BY
AGENT OR ANY LENDER, ALL PERSONS, DOCUMENTS (WHETHER IN TANGIBLE, ELECTRONIC OR OTHER FORM) OR OTHER THINGS UNDER ITS CONTROL AND RELATING TO THE DISPUTE. 

        10.15 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. BORROWER, AGENT AND EACH LENDER HEREBY WAIVE THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM
OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS. BORROWER, AGENT AND EACH LENDER ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THIS WAIVER IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT TO ENTER INTO A
BUSINESS RELATIONSHIP, THAT EACH HAS RELIED ON THE WAIVER IN ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS AND THAT EACH WILL CONTINUE TO RELY ON THE WAIVER IN THEIR RELATED FUTURE
DEALINGS. BORROWER, AGENT AND EACH LENDER WARRANT AND REPRESENT THAT EACH HAS HAD THE OPPORTUNITY OF 

48

 

REVIEWING
THIS JURY WAIVER WITH LEGAL COUNSEL, AND THAT EACH KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVES ITS JURY TRIAL RIGHTS. 

        10.16 Construction. Borrower, Agent and each Lender each acknowledge that it has had the benefit of legal counsel of its own
choice and has been afforded an opportunity to review this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with its legal counsel and that this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be construed as if
jointly drafted by Borrower, Agent and each Lender. 

        10.17 Counterparts; Effectiveness. This Agreement and any amendments, waivers, consents, or supplements may be executed via
telecopier or facsimile transmission in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed an original,
but all of which counterparts together shall constitute one and the same instrument. This Agreement shall become effective upon the execution of a counterpart hereof by each of the parties hereto. 

        10.18 Confidentiality. Agent and each Lender agree to exercise their best efforts to keep confidential any
non-public information delivered pursuant to the Loan Documents and not to disclose such confidential non-public information to Persons other than Persons on "a need to know
basis", including respective affiliates, officers, directors and employees; or its potential assignees or participants; or Persons employed by or engaged by Agent, a Lender or a Lender's assignees or
participants including, without limitation, attorneys, auditors, professional consultants, rating agencies and portfolio management services. The confidentiality provisions contained in this
subsection shall not apply to disclosures (i) required to be made by Agent or any Lender to any regulatory or governmental agency or pursuant to legal process (provided that Agent or such
Lender agrees to use reasonable efforts to notify Borrower of such requirement or legal process and will not oppose any action by Borrower to obtain an appropriate protective order or injunction to
prevent such disclosure), or (ii) consisting of general portfolio information that does not identify Borrower, or (iii) to the extent needed by Agent or any Lender for the protection or
enforcement of any of its rights or interests pursuant to the Loan Documentation, and shall not apply to any information already known to Agent or a Lender at the time of delivery thereof (other than
such information already known by Agent or such Lender by virtue of any breach by any third party of any confidentiality obligation owed to Borrower) or any information which becomes public
