                            Types of Loans. Subject to Section 2.3(f), all Loans shall be made as LIR Loans.

            (b)        Agreement to Pay Interest. Borrowers agree to pay interest on all unpaid principal amounts of the Loans from the respective date each such Loan is made until such Loan is paid (whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration, or otherwise) at the rates of interest and at the times
            set forth in this Agreement.

            (c)        Interest Rate. All LIR Loans shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the greater of (i) the LIBOR Index Rate plus the Applicable Margin or (ii) the Flat Rate. Any Base
            Rate Loans shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the greater of (i) the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin or (ii) the Flat Rate. All interest on any Loan and on all other Obligations shall be calculated on the presumed basis of a year of 360 days, for the actual number of days elapsed.

            (d)        Adjustment of Interest Rate. The rate of interest on any LIR Loan shall be adjusted as provided in the definition of “LIBOR Index Rate,” subject to Section 2.3(f). The rate of interest on any Base Rate Loan made
            pursuant to Section 2.3(f) shall be adjusted automatically and without notice on and as of the date of any change in the Base Rate.

            (e)        Default Rate. At Lender’s option, during the existence of any Event of Default, the principal amount of all Obligations (other than Obligations arising under Hedge Agreements between a Borrower, or Borrowers jointly, and Lender or its Affiliates) shall bear interest at the
            Default Rate. In any event, the Default Rate shall automatically and without notice apply from the time Lender accelerates or is deemed to have accelerated the Obligations pursuant to Section 9.2 until such Obligations or any judgment thereon is paid in full.

            (f)         Conversion to Base Rate. Any provision of this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, if Lender should at any time, in good faith, determine that (i) it is not reasonably possible to determine the LIBOR Index Rate, (ii) the LIBOR Index Rate is no longer available, (iii)
            it is no longer lawful for Lender to make Loans at a rate based on the LIBOR Index Rate, or (iv) a Default or Event of Default exists and Lender shall so elect; then, in each case, all affected LIR Loans shall automatically and without notice be converted into Base Rate Loans and any Loans made thereafter shall be made as Base Rate Loans until such time as Lender shall have determined that such illegality has been reversed, such condition has ceased to exist, or such Event of
            Default shall have been waived, as applicable.

            (g)        Opening LIBOR Index Rate. The LIBOR Index Rate on the date hereof is _______ percent (____%) per annum and, therefore, the rate of interest in effect hereunder on the date hereof, expressed in simple interest terms (but on a 360-day basis), is _______ percent (____%) per annum
            with respect to any portion of the Revolving Loans bearing interest as a LIR Loan.

            (a)        Revolving Loans. Revolving Loans shall be deemed requested pursuant to the following clauses (i) and (ii) or requested pursuant to the following clause
            (iii).

            (i)        Subject to Section 2.4(b), the becoming due of any Obligation (whether as principal, accrued interest, fees, or other charges owed to Lender or any Affiliate of Lender) shall in all respects constitute Borrowers’ irrevocable request for a Revolving Loan in an amount equal to
            such Obligations, and Lender may make such Revolving Loan and apply the proceeds thereof to the payment of such Obligations.

            (ii)        Subject to Section 2.4(b), the presentment for payment of any instrument drawn on, or request for any wire or other transfer from, a Funding Account at a time when there are insufficient funds in such account to cover such instrument shall in all respects constitute
            Borrowers’ irrevocable request for a Revolving Loan in an amount equal to the amount payable on such instrument to be made by Lender, and Lender may make such Revolving Loan and apply the proceeds thereof to such Funding Account for payment of such instrument or transfer.

            (iii)       For all other Revolving Loans, Borrowers shall provide Lender a request in accordance with Section 2.5.

            (b)        Provisions Regarding Deemed Requests for Revolving Loans. Lender shall have no obligation to honor any deemed request for a Revolving Loan under Sections 2.4(a)(i) or (ii), if (i)
            such request is deemed made after the Termination Date, (ii) doing so would cause the Working Capital Obligations to exceed the lesser of (A) the Revolving Loan Commitment or (B) the Borrowing Base, or (iii) Lender determines that any condition precedent in Section 4.2 hereof or any other condition precedent to the making of such Loan is not then satisfied or will not be satisfied
            when such Loan is to be made; provided, Lender may make such Revolving Loan in its sole and absolute discretion and without regard to the existence of, and without being deemed to have waived, any Default or Event of Default which may then exist or arise from the making of such Revolving Loan. Lender may make Revolving Loans under Sections 2.4(a)(i) and
            (ii) without Borrowers’ having submitted a request (whether telephonic or in writing) therefor.

            (a)        Making Requests for New Loans. Each request for the making of a new Revolving Loan, may be made telephonically; provided, however, that Lender, in its sole discretion, may from
            time to time require each such request to be in writing. If Lender requires Borrowers to make a request for a new Revolving Loan in writing, Borrowers shall submit a Notice of Borrowing therefor. Each request (whether telephonic or in writing) shall specify (i) the date for the making of the applicable Loan, which date must be a Business Day; (ii) the principal amount of the applicable Loan to be made; (iii) for any new Loan, instructions for the disbursement of the proceeds of such
            Loan for Permitted Purposes (provided that, if such instructions are not included, the proceeds will be deposited into a Funding Account); (iv) for any new Revolving Loan, if requested by Lender, a written calculation of the Borrowing Base and a reconciliation of such Borrowing Base to the previous Borrowing Base or request for a Revolving Loan; and (v) such other information Lender may require from time to time.

            (b)        Timing and Acceptance of Requests. Requests made under this Section 2.5 (whether telephonic or in writing) are irrevocable. Requests under this Section 2.5 which Lender receives
            after 11:00 a.m. (Birmingham, Alabama, time) shall be deemed received on the next Business Day. Lender’s acceptance of a request for the making of a new Loan under this Section 2.5 shall be indicated by its making the Loan requested.

            2.6        Excess Outstandings. Any provision of this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, Lender may, in its sole and absolute discretion, make or permit to remain outstanding Revolving Loans which are causing or would cause the Working Capital Obligations to exceed the Revolving Loan
            Commitment or the Borrowing Base, and all such excess amounts shall (i) be part of the Obligations evidenced by the Revolving Note, (ii) bear interest as provided herein, (iii) be payable on demand, (iv) be secured by the Collateral, and (v) be entitled to all rights and security as provided under the Loan Documents.

            (a)        Repayment of Obligations Generally. Borrowers shall pay all outstanding principal amounts and accrued interest under Note in accordance with the terms of such Note and this Agreement.

            (i)        Borrowers shall immediately repay the principal amount of the Revolving Loans with the proceeds of any Collateral of the type included in the Borrowing Base; provided, however, that, to the extent Lender receives and applies such
            proceeds in the manner described in, and in accordance with, Section 2.9, Borrowers’ payment obligation under this Section 2.7(b)(i) shall be satisfied with respect to such proceeds. All payments made pursuant to this subsection shall be applied in the manner set forth in Section 2.9. All outstanding principal of the Revolving
            Loans shall be due and payable on the Termination Date.

            (ii)        Interest accrued on the Revolving Loans shall be due and payable, in arrears, on (A) the first day of each month (for the immediately preceding month), computed through the last calendar day of the preceding month; and (B) on the Termination Date.

                            Additional Payment Provisions.

                        

            

            (a)        Payment of Other Obligations. Borrowers shall pay Lender the balance of the Obligations under the Loan Documents requiring the payment of money on the terms set forth in the Loan Documents, or, if no date of payment is otherwise specified in the Loan Documents, on
            demand.

            (b)        Authorization to Debit. In addition to Lender’s right to make a deemed Revolving Loan under Section 2.4(a), Lender may, without notice to, or the consent of, Borrowers, debit any Funding Account, Collections Account, other
            Deposit Account, or other account over which Lender has Control and apply such amounts to the payment of Obligations which are then due and payable.

            (c)        Time and Location of Payment. Except for payments made pursuant to Section 2.9 and Section 2.4(a)(i), Borrowers shall make each payment of principal of and interest and other
            Obligations which are due and payable not later than 12:00 noon (Birmingham, Alabama, time) on the date due, without set-off, counterclaim, or other deduction, in immediately available funds to Lender at its address referred to in Section 10.4. If any payment of any Obligations shall be due on a day which is not a Business Day, such payment shall be due and payable the next Business Day, and interest shall accrue during such
            time.

            (d)        Excess Over Borrowing Base. At any time the Working Capital Obligations exceed the Borrowing Base, Borrowers shall immediately pay the amount of such excess to Lender.

            (e)        Hedge Agreements Are Independent. Prepayment of any Loans shall not affect any Borrower’s obligation to continue making payments under any Hedge Agreement, which shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding such prepayment, subject to the terms of such Hedge
            Agreement.

            (f)        Capital Requirements; Increased Costs. If (i) the introduction of, or any change in, or in the interpretation of, any applicable law or (ii) compliance with any guideline or request from any central bank or comparable agency or other governmental authority (whether or not having
            the force of law), has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on the capital of, or has affected or would affect the amount of capital required to be maintained by Lender or any Person controlling Lender as a consequence of, or with reference to, the Commitments and other commitments of this type, below the rate which Lender or such other Person could have achieved but for such introduction, change, or compliance, then within five (5) Business Days after
            Lender’s written demand therefor, Borrowers shall pay Lender from time to time as specified by Lender additional amounts sufficient to compensate Lender or such other Person for such reduction. Lender’s accounting of such amounts submitted in writing to Borrower shall be presumed conclusive absent manifest error. If there is any change in the LIBOR Reserve Requirements, then Borrowers shall, from time to time upon demand by Lender, pay to Lender such additional amounts
            as Lender may deem necessary to compensate Lender for any increased costs resulting from such change. Borrowers agree that Lender’s determination of such additional amounts and increased costs will be made in Lender’s sole discretion and shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

            (a)        Establishment of Lockboxes. Borrowers shall, on or before the Closing Date, (i) establish and thereafter maintain one or more lockboxes under Lender’s control and (ii) contemporaneously therewith, direct all of its Account Debtors to make payments to such lockboxes (or, if
            made by wire or other transfer, to a Collections Account).

            (b)        Collections Accounts. To the extent not delivered directly to a lockbox, all Items or funds received by each Borrower in respect of Accounts or the sale of Inventory or as Net Proceeds of other Collateral shall be held by such Borrower in trust for Lender, shall not be commingled
            with such Borrower’s funds, and shall be deposited promptly by such Borrower into a Collections Account or forwarded to Lender in the form received. All such Items and funds shall be the exclusive property of Lender upon the earlier of the receipt thereof by Lender or by Borrower. Subject to Section 2.9(c), Lender shall apply available balances from any Item or funds deposited into a Collections Account to the payment of
            Obligations in whatever order Lender shall determine.

            (c)        Chargebacks. No payment item received by Lender shall constitute payment to Lender until such item is actually collected by Lender and credited to the Collections Account; provided,
            however, that Lender shall have the right to charge back to the Collections Account (or any other account of Borrower maintained with Lender) an Item which is returned for inability to collect, plus accrued interest during the period of Lender’s provisional credit for such item prior to receiving notice of dishonor.

            (d)        Power of Attorney; Security Interest; Applicable Fees. Borrowers hereby irrevocably appoint Lender (and any Person designated by Lender) as each Borrower’s attorney-in-fact to indorse each Borrower’s name on any Items which come into Lender’s possession or
            control, this power being coupled with an interest is irrevocable so long as any of the Obligations remain outstanding. Such indorsement by Lender under such power of attorney shall, for all purposes, be deemed to have been made by the affected Borrower (prior to any subsequent indorsement by Lender) in negotiation of the Item. In addition to the security interest granted Lender in Section 3, each Borrower hereby grants Lender a
            security interest in and to all Items, funds, and balances held in any lockbox, any Funding Account, and any Collections Account, in each case as Collateral for the Obligations. Each Borrower shall pay all of Lender’s standard fees and charges in connection with any lockboxes, Funding Accounts, and Collections Accounts and the processing of Items and other transactions relating thereto, as such fees and charges may change from time to time.

            (a)        Issuance of Letters of Credit. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Lender shall from time to time issue, extend, or renew Letters of Credit for the account of Borrowers jointly, provided that (i) Borrowers shall
            have given Lender not less than five (5) Business Days’ written notice thereof; (ii) Lender shall have no obligation to issue any Letter of Credit, if (A) doing so would cause (1) the Working Capital Obligations to exceed the lesser of (a) the Borrowing Base or (b) the Revolving Loan Commitment or (2) the LC Obligations to exceed Three Million Dollars ($3,000,000) or (B) the expiration date of such requested Letter of Credit
            would occur after the date specified in clause (a) of the definition of Termination Date; and (iii) all other conditions precedent to the issuance of each such Letter or Credit set forth in this Agreement shall have been satisfied or waived in writing by Lender. All payments made by Lender under any Letter of Credit (whether or not a Borrower is the account party) and all fees, commissions, discounts, and other amounts owed or to be owed to Lender in connection therewith, shall be
            paid on demand, unless (x) Borrowers instruct Lender to make a Revolving Loan to pay such amount, (y) Lender agrees to do so, and (z) sufficient Excess Availability exists to make such Revolving Loan. All LC Obligations shall be secured by the Collateral. Borrowers shall complete and sign such applications and supplemental agreements and provide such other documentation as Lender may require in respect to the issuance and administration of the Letters of Credit. The form and
            substance of all Letters of Credit shall be subject to Lender’s approval. Lender may charge certain fees or commissions for the issuance, handling, renewal or extension of a Letter of Credit, in addition to the fees payable pursuant to Section 2.11. Borrowers unconditionally guarantee the payment and performance of all obligations of any Subsidiary with respect to Letters of Credit issued for the account of such Subsidiary.
            Upon Lender’s request during the existence of an Event of Default, Borrowers shall immediately deliver to Lender immediately available funds in an amount equal to one hundred five percent (105%) of the LC Obligations, which Lender shall hold as cash collateral for the payment of Obligations related to the Letters of Credit.

            (b)        Law Governing Letter of Credit. Each Letter of Credit issued hereunder shall be governed, as applicable, by (i) the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits International Chamber of Commerce (“ICC”), Publication 500, or any subsequent revision or

            exceeded the Working Capital Obligations on such day. Borrowers shall pay this fee on the first day of each calendar month, for each day in the preceding calendar month, and on the Termination Date. As used herein, “Unused Line Fee Rate” shall mean, (i) 25/100ths of one percent (.25%), if Working Capital Obligations (determined on a daily
            average basis for the calendar month, or portion thereof, for which such fee is being charged) are equal to or greater than Fifteen Million Dollars ($15,000,000), or (ii) 37.5/100th of one percent (.375%), until May 31, 2009, and, thereafter, 50/100th of one percent (.50%), if Working Capital Obligations, as so determined for the same such period, are less than Fifteen Million Dollars ($15,000,000).

            (c)        Letter of Credit Fees. Borrowers shall pay to Lender, at such times as Lender shall require, Lender’s standard fees in connection with Letters of Credit, as in effect from time to time, and with respect to standby and commercial Letters of Credit, at the time of issuance of

            2.12      Statement of Account. If Lender provides Borrowers with a statement of account on a periodic basis, each such statement will be binding on Borrowers unless, within forty-five (45) days of its receipt, Borrowers object in writing and with specificity to such statement.

            2.13      Termination. Borrowers may terminate this Agreement and the Commitments before the Termination Date, in whole but not in part, by giving Lender thirty (30) days prior written notice; provided,
            however, no termination by Borrowers shall be effective until (a) Lender shall have received cash collateral or an irrevocable direct-pay letter of credit naming Lender as beneficiary, which letter of credit shall be in form and substance satisfactory to Lender, be issued by a bank other than Lender but satisfactory to Lender, and be in an original face amount equal to one hundred five percent (105%) of all Obligations which remain
            contingent (e.g., LC Obligations and pending indemnification payments) and (b) all other Obligations have been fully and finally paid and performed.

            (a)        As security for the full and final payment and performance of the Obligations, each Borrower hereby grants to Lender (for itself and its Affiliates) a continuing security interest in and to all right, title, and interest of each Borrower in and to the Collateral of such Borrower, whether now owned or hereafter acquired by such
            Borrower.

            (b)        Except as expressly required by the Security Agreements or applicable law, Lender shall have no obligation to (i) exercise any degree of care in connection with any Collateral in its possession or (ii) take any steps necessary to preserve any rights in the Collateral or to preserve any rights in the Collateral against senior or
            prior

             

            
                

                
                    	
                                 

                            	
                                15

                            

                

                 

                

            

             

            
                

            

            parties (which steps Borrowers agree to take). In any case, Lender shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care of the Collateral if Lender takes such steps for the care and preservation of the Collateral or rights therein as Borrowers reasonably request Lender to take; provided that Lender’s omission to take any action not requested by
            Borrowers shall not be deemed a failure to exercise reasonable care. Lender’s segregation or specific allocation of specified items of Collateral against any of Borrowers’ liabilities shall not waive or affect any Lien against other items of Collateral or any of Lender’s options, powers, or rights under this Agreement or otherwise arising.

            (c)        Lender may at any time and from time to time, with or without notice to Borrowers, (i) transfer any of the Collateral into the name of Lender or the name of Lender’s nominee, (ii) notify any Account Debtor or other obligor with respect to any of the Collateral to make payment of any amounts due or to become due thereon
            directly to Lender, and (iii) receive and direct the disposition of any proceeds of any Collateral.

            (d)        Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) no Account, Instrument, Chattel Paper, or other obligation or property of any kind due from, owed by, or belonging to, a Sanctioned Person or (ii) any lease under which the lessee is a Sanctioned Person shall be Collateral or shall be credited toward the payment of the Obligations.

            3.2       Financing Statements; Fixture Filings; Power of Attorney. Each Borrower authorizes Lender to file any financing statements (and other similar filings or public records or notices relating to the perfection of Liens), fixture filings, and amendments thereto relating to the Collateral
            which Lender deems appropriate, in form and substance required by Lender, and to (a) describe the Collateral thereon (i) as “all personal property of the debtor,” “all assets,” or words of similar effect, if appropriate and permitted by applicable law, regardless of whether any particular asset comprised in the Collateral falls within the scope of Article 9 of the UCC or any other applicable law, or (ii) by specific collateral category and (b) include therein
            all other information which is required by Article 9 of the UCC or other applicable law with respect to the preparation or filing of a financing statement (or other similar filings or public records or notices relating to the perfection of Liens), fixture filing, or amendment. Each Borrower appoints Lender as its attorney-in-fact to perform all acts which Lender deems appropriate to perfect and to continue perfection of the Lien granted to Lender under any Security Agreement,
            including, without limitation, (x) the filing of financing statements (and other similar filings or public records or notices relating to the perfection of Liens), fixture filings, and amendments, (y) the execution in such Borrower’s name of any agreements providing for Control over any applicable Collateral, and (z) the indorsement, presentation, and collection on behalf of such Borrower and in such Borrower’s name of any Items or other documents necessary or desirable
            to collect any amounts which such Borrower may be owed, such power of attorney being coupled with an interest and is therefore irrevocable. Borrower grants Lender a license or other right to use, without charge, such Borrower’s labels, patents, copyrights, rights of use of any name, trade secrets, trade names, trademarks and advertising matter, and any Property of a similar nature, as it pertains to the Collateral, in advertising for sale and selling any Collateral, and such
            Borrower’s rights under all licenses and all franchise agreements shall inure to Lender’s benefit. Each Borrower shall be liable for any and all expense incurred in connection with Lender’s exercising its rights under this Section 3.2.

            3.3       Entry. Each Borrower (for itself and on behalf of its Subsidiaries) irrevocably consents to any act by Lender or its agents in entering upon any premises for the purposes of either (a) inspecting any Collateral or (b) taking possession of any Collateral. Borrower waives, as to Lender
            and its agents, any now existing or hereafter arising claim based upon trespass or any similar cause of action for entering upon any premises where Collateral may be located.

            3.4       Other Rights. Without limiting any Credit Party’s obligations under the Loan Documents, each Borrower authorizes Lender from time to time (a) to (i) take from any party and hold additional Collateral or Guaranty for the payment of the Obligations or any part thereof, (ii)
            exchange, enforce, or release such Collateral or Guaranty or any part thereof, and (iii) release or substitute any indorser or Guarantor or any party who has granted Lender any security interest in any property as security for the payment of the Obligations or any part thereof or any party in any way obligated to pay the Obligations or any part thereof, and (b) during the existence of any Event of Default, to direct the manner of the disposition of the Collateral and the enforcement
            of any indorsements, guaranties, letters of credit, or other security or Supporting Obligations relating to the Obligations or any part thereof as Lender in its sole discretion may determine.

            3.5       Accounts. Before or after any Event of Default, Lender may contact any Account Debtor (a) to ensure such Account Debtor is directing payments on Borrower’s Accounts to a lockbox or a Collections Account

             

            
                

                
                    	
                                 

                            	
                                16

                            

                

                 

                

            

             

            
                

            

            (as applicable), (b) to direct such Account Debtor to make payment directly to Lender, a lockbox, or a Collections Account, and (c) to notify such Account Debtor of the existence of Lender’s Liens under the Security Agreements.

            3.6       Waiver of Marshaling. Each Borrower hereby waives any right it may have to require marshaling of its assets.

            3.7       Control; Further Assurances. Each Borrower will, at its expense, cooperate with Lender in (a) obtaining Control of, or Control agreements with respect to, Collateral for which Control or a Control agreement is required for perfection of Lender’s security interest under the UCC and
            (b) perfecting Lender’s Lien in the Collateral.

            3.8       Pledge of Equity Interests. Each Borrower will cause all certificates representing its ownership of Equity Interests in each other Borrower constituting Collateral hereunder to be physically delivered to Lender, in pledge, on the Closing Date (or, as to any such certificates issued
            subsequent to the Closing Date, promptly upon their issuance) together with stock powers (assignments) executed “in blank” in respect thereof.

            (d)        No Material Adverse Effect. There shall have been no change which could have a Material Adverse Effect on any Credit Party or Subsidiary of any Borrower since the date of the most recent financial statements of such Person delivered to Lender from time to time;

            (e)        Limitations Not Exceeded. Any making or issuance of any requested Revolving Loan or Letter of Credit would not cause the Working Capital Obligations to exceed the lesser of (i) the Revolving Loan Commitment or (ii) the Borrowing
            Base; and

            (f)        Further Assurances. Each Credit Party shall have delivered such further documentation or assurances as Lender may require, in its Permitted Discretion.

                            REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES.

                        

            

            To induce Lender to enter into this Agreement and to make the Loans or extend credit as provided for herein, each Borrower makes the following representations and warranties, all of which shall survive the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents. Unless otherwise specified, such representations and warranties shall be deemed made as of the date hereof and as of the date of
            each request for a Loan or extension of credit hereunder:

            5.1       Valid Existence and Power. Each Borrower and each Subsidiary is duly organized, validly existing, and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization and is duly qualified or licensed to transact business in all places where the failure to be so qualified could
            reasonably be likely to have a Material Adverse Effect. Each of Borrower and each other Credit Party has the power to make and perform the Loan Documents executed by it and all Loan Documents will constitute the legal, valid, and binding obligations of such Person, enforceable in accordance with their respective terms, subject only to bankruptcy and similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally. Each Borrower is organized under the laws of the State (or other
            jurisdiction) first inscribed hereinabove, and has not changed the jurisdiction of its organization within the five (5) years preceding the Closing Date.

            5.2       Authority. The execution, delivery, and performance thereof by each Borrower and each other Credit Party executing any Loan Document have been duly authorized by all necessary actions of such Person, and do not and will not violate any provision of law or regulation, or any writ, order,
            or decree of any Governmental Entity or any provision of the governing instruments of such Person, and do not and will not, with the passage of time or the giving of notice, result in a breach of, or constitute a default or require any consent under, or result in the creation of any Lien upon any property or assets of such Person pursuant to, any law, regulation, instrument, or agreement to which any such Person is a party or by which any such Person or its respective properties may
            be subject, bound, or affected.

            5.3       Financial Condition. Other than as disclosed in financial statements delivered to Lender on or before the Closing Date or as may be on Schedule 5.3, attached hereto and made a part hereof, none of any Borrower, any Subsidiary, or (to
            the knowledge of any Borrower) any Guarantor has any material direct or contingent obligations or liabilities or any material unrealized or anticipated losses from any commitments of such Person. As of the Closing Date, all operating and capital leases under which any Borrower, any Subsidiary, or (to the knowledge of Borrower) any Guarantor is lessee are disclosed in the financial statements delivered to Lender on or before the Closing Date or on Schedule
            5.3. All financial statements from time to time delivered to Lender by Borrowers shall have been prepared in accordance with GAAP and fairly present the financial condition of such Person as of the date thereof. Borrowers are not aware of any material adverse fact (other than facts which are generally available to the public and not particular to any Borrower, such as general economic trends) concerning the condition (financial or otherwise) or future
            prospects of Borrower or any Subsidiary or any Guarantor which has not been fully disclosed to Lender, including any adverse change in the operations or financial condition of such Person since the date of the most recent financial statements delivered to Lender. Each Credit Party is Solvent and, after consummation of the transactions set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, will be Solvent.

            5.4       Litigation. Except as may be disclosed on Schedule 5.4, attached hereto and made a part hereof, there are no suits or proceedings pending or, to any Borrower’s knowledge, threatened by or before any Governmental Entity against or
            affecting any Borrower, any Subsidiary or (to any Borrower’s knowledge) any

             

            
                

                
                    	
                                 

                            	
                                19

                            

                

                 

                

            

             

            
                

            

            Guarantor, or their respective assets, which if adversely determined could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

            5.5       Agreements, Etc. Neither any Borrower nor any Subsidiary is a party to any agreement or instrument or subject to any order or decree of any Governmental Entity or any charter or other corporate restriction, adversely affecting its business, assets, operations, or condition (financial or
            otherwise), nor is any such Person in default in the performance, observance, or fulfillment of any of the obligations, covenants, or conditions contained in any agreement or instrument to which it is a party, or any law, regulation, decree, order, or the like to which it is subject.

            5.6       Authorizations. All authorizations, consents, approvals, and licenses required under applicable law for the ownership or operation of the property owned or operated by each Borrower or any Subsidiary or for the conduct of any business in which it is engaged have been duly issued and are
            in full force and effect, and it is not in default, nor has any event occurred which with the passage of time or the giving of notice, or both, would constitute a default, under any of the terms or provisions of any part thereof, or under any order, decree, ruling, regulation, closing agreement or other decision or instrument of any governmental commission, bureau or other administrative agency or public regulatory body having jurisdiction over such Person, which default would have
            a Material Adverse Effect on such Person. Except as noted herein, no approval, consent or authorization of, or filing or registration with, any governmental commission, bureau or other regulatory authority or agency is required with respect to the execution, delivery or performance of any Loan Document.

            5.7       Title. Each Borrower and each Subsidiary has good title to all of the assets shown in its financial statements free and clear of all Liens, except Permitted Liens. Each Borrower alone has full ownership rights in all Collateral owned by it.

                            Collateral.

                        

            

            (a)        The security interests granted to Lender herein and pursuant to any other Security Agreement (a) constitute and, as to subsequently acquired property included in the Collateral covered by the Security Agreement, will constitute, security interests under the UCC entitled to all of the rights, benefits, and priorities provided by
            the UCC and (b) are and, as to such subsequently acquired Collateral, will be fully perfected, superior, and prior to the rights of all third persons, now existing or hereafter arising. All of the Collateral of each Borrower is intended for use solely in such Borrower’s business.

            (b)        Schedule 5.8(b) sets forth all of the Credit Parties’ insurance policies in effect as of the Closing Date and sets forth as to each such policy (as applicable) the type of insurance provided by such policy, the underwriter thereof, the maximum coverage provided thereunder,
            the deductible applicable thereto, and a brief description of any non-customary term as set forth therein. Each of such policies is currently in effect and all premiums thereon have been paid to date.

            Borrower’s and each Subsidiary’s other places of business, and any other places where any Collateral (other than Inventory in-transit) is kept, are all correctly and completely indicated in Schedule 5.9. The Collateral (other than Inventory in-transit) is located and shall at all times be kept and maintained only at a Permitted Location. No Collateral is attached or affixed to any real property so as to be classified as
            a Fixture unless Lender has otherwise agreed in writing. No Borrower has changed it legal status or the jurisdiction in which it is organized or moved its chief executive office within the five (5) years preceding the Closing Date.

            5.10      Taxes. Each Borrower and each Subsidiary have filed all Federal and state income and other tax returns which are required to be filed, and have paid all taxes as shown on said returns and all taxes, including withholding, FICA, and ad
            valorem taxes, shown on all assessments received by it to the extent that such taxes have become due. Neither any Borrower nor any Subsidiary is subject to any Federal, state, or local tax Liens nor has such Person received any notice of deficiency or other official notice to pay any taxes. Each Borrower and each Subsidiary have paid all sales and excise taxes payable by it.

             

            
                

                
                    	
                                 

                            	
                                20

                            

                

                 

                

            

             

            
                

            

            5.11      Labor Law Matters. No goods or services have been or will be produced by any Borrower or any Subsidiary in violation of any applicable labor laws or regulations or any collective bargaining agreement or other labor agreements or in violation of any minimum wage, wage-and-hour or other
            similar laws or regulations.

            5.12      Accounts.

That portion of any Account included in any Notice of Borrowing, Borrowing Base Certificate, report, or other document as an Eligible Account meets all the requirements of an Eligible Account set forth herein.

            5.13      Judgment Liens.

            (b)        Each Borrower has good title to all of the Equity Interests it purports to own of each of its Subsidiaries, free and clear in each case of any Lien other than Permitted Liens. All such Equity Interests have been duly issued and are fully paid and non-assessable. Since the date of the last audited financial statements of Borrowers

Except as may be disclosed on Schedule 5.16, each Borrower and its Subsidiaries is in full compliance with all applicable Environmental Laws and neither any Borrower nor any Subsidiary has been notified of any action, suit, proceeding, or investigation which calls into question compliance by each Borrower or any
            Subsidiary with any Environmental Laws or which seeks to suspend, revoke or terminate any license, permit, or approval necessary for the generation, handling, storage, treatment, or disposal of any Regulated Material.

            5.17      ERISA. Except as may be set forth on Schedule 5.17, none of any Borrower or its Subsidiaries has any pension, profit-sharing, or other benefit plan subject to ERISA.

            OFAC. No Borrower will use the proceeds of any extension of credit hereunder to fund any operation in, finance any investments or activities in, or make any payments to, a Sanctioned Person or a Sanctioned Country.

            5.21      Compliance with Covenants; No Default. Each Borrower is, and upon the making of the initial extensions of credit on the Closing Date will be, in compliance with all of the covenants hereof. No Default is in existence, and the execution, delivery, and performance of the Loan Documents and the
            making of the initial extensions of credit on the Closing Date will not cause a Default.

            5.22      Full Disclosure. Each Credit Party has disclosed to Lender each fact and circumstance which such Credit Party knows or should know and which, by itself or together with any other fact disclosed or undisclosed, could reasonably be expected to have Material Adverse Effect.

            Proceeds are on deposit with Lender in a separate Deposit Account over which Lender has exclusive Control, and (iii) such Loss did not cause an Event of Default. If an Event of Default occurs pursuant to which Lender exercises its rights to accelerate the Obligations as provided in Section 9.2 or such repair, restoration, or replacement is not completed within one hundred eighty (180) days of the date of such Loss (or such longer
            period of time agreed to in writing by Lender), Lender may immediately and without notice to any Person apply all of such Net Proceeds to the Obligations, regardless of any other prior agreement regarding the disposition of such Net Proceeds.

            and books and records at such times and with such frequency as Lender may request from time to time, with (a) when no Default or Event of Default is in existence, reasonable notice thereof and (b) when any Default or Event of Default is in existence, no notice thereof. Borrower shall pay the cost of such inspections, verifications, appraisals, and field examinations; provided, the cost of field examinations shall not exceed Eight

            shall cease to own and control, with sole power to vote, either directly or indirectly through one or more Subsidiaries, one hundred percent (100%) of each class of each other Borrower’s Equity Interests subsequent to the Closing Date.

            (n)        The death (i) of the holder of the majority ownership interests of any Credit Party or (ii) of any individual Guarantor.

            9.2       Remedies. During the existence of any Default, Lender may, without notice to Borrowers and at its option, refuse to make Loans, issue Letters of Credit, or make other extensions of credit to Borrowers. During the existence of any Event of Default, Lender may at its option take any or
            all of the following actions:

            (a)        Lender may terminate all Commitments and declare any or all Obligations (other than Obligations under any Hedge Agreements, between any Borrower and Lender or any Affiliate of Lender, which shall be due in accordance with and governed by the provisions of said Hedge Agreements) to be immediately due and payable (if not earlier
            demanded) (provided, that, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default described in Section 9.1(g) or Section 9.1(h), all Obligations shall automatically become immediately due and payable), terminate its obligation to make Loans and other extensions of credit to Borrowers, bring
            suit against Borrowers to collect the Obligations, exercise any remedy available to Lender hereunder or at law, and take any action or exercise any remedy provided herein or in any other Loan Document or under applicable law.

            (b)        Without waiving any of its other rights hereunder or under any other Loan Document, Lender shall have all rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC (and the Uniform Commercial Code of any other applicable jurisdiction) and such other rights and remedies as may be available hereunder, under other applicable law, or
            pursuant to contract. If requested by Lender, Borrowers will promptly assemble the Collateral and make it available to Lender at a place designated by Lender. Borrowers agree that any notice by Lender of the sale or disposition of the Collateral or any other intended action hereunder, whether required by the UCC or otherwise, shall constitute reasonable notice to Borrower if the notice is mailed to Borrowers by regular or certified mail, postage prepaid, at least five days before
            the action to be taken. The proceeds realized from the sale or other disposition of any Collateral shall be applied in the manner provided in Section 2.9. Each Credit Party shall be liable for any deficiencies in the event the proceeds of the disposition of the Collateral do not satisfy the Obligations in full.

            (c)        Lender may demand, collect, and sue for all amounts owed pursuant to Accounts, General Intangibles, Chattel Paper, Instruments, or Documents or for proceeds of any Collateral (either in a Borrower’s name or Lender’s name at Lender’s option), with the right to enforce, compromise, settle, or discharge any such
            amounts.

            (d)        Each Borrower hereby grants Lender a worldwide, non-exclusive, and royalty-free license to use solely during the existence of an Event of Default such Borrower’s trademarks, service marks, and trade names for purposes of invoicing and collecting Accounts and otherwise disposing of or liquidating Collateral.

            9.3       Receiver. In addition to any other remedy available to it, Lender shall have the absolute right, during the existence of an Event of Default, to seek and obtain the appointment of a receiver to take possession of and operate and/or dispose of the business and assets of
            Borrowers.

            9.4       Deposits; Insurance. Each Borrower (a) authorizes Lender to, during the existence of an Event of Default, collect and apply against the Obligations when due any refund of insurance premiums or any insurance proceeds payable on account of the loss or damage to any Collateral and (b)
            irrevocably appoints Lender as its attorney-in-fact to endorse any check or draft or take other action necessary to obtain such funds.

                            MISCELLANEOUS.

                        

            

            10.1      No Waiver, Remedies Cumulative. No failure or delay on the part of Lender to exercise any right under this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or applicable law shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right hereunder preclude any other or further
            exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. The remedies herein provided are cumulative and are in addition to any other remedies provided by applicable law, any Loan Document, or otherwise.

            10.2      Survival of Representations. All representations and warranties made in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall survive the making of any extension of credit hereunder and the delivery of any Note

            and shall continue in full force and effect until the full and final payment and performance of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

            10.3      Indemnity By Borrowers; Expenses. In addition to all other Obligations, each Borrower agrees to defend, protect, indemnify, and hold harmless Lender and its Affiliates and all of their respective officers, directors, employees, attorneys, consultants, and agents from and against any and all
            losses, damages, liabilities, obligations, penalties, fines, fees, costs, and expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’ and paralegals’ fees, costs and expenses, and fees, costs and expenses for investigations and experts) incurred by such indemnitees, whether before or from and after the Closing Date, as a result of or arising from or relating to (a) the due diligence effort (including, without limitation, public records searches, recording fees, examinations,
            and investigations of the properties of the Credit Parties or any Subsidiary and their respective operations), negotiation, preparation, execution, performance of any of the Loan Documents or of any document executed in connection with the transactions contemplated thereby, perfection of Lender’s Liens in the Collateral, maintenance of each Loan by Lender, and any and all amendments, modifications, and supplements of any of the Loan Documents or restructuring of the
            Obligations; (b) any suit, investigation, action, or proceeding by any Person (other than a Borrower), whether threatened or initiated, asserting a claim for any legal or equitable remedy against any Person under any statute, regulation, or common law principle, arising from or in connection with Lender’s making extensions of credit or furnishing funds to any Borrower under this Agreement; (c) Lender’s preservation, administration, and enforcement of its rights under the
            Loan Documents and applicable law, including the reasonable attorneys fees if collected, or sought to be collected, by or through an attorney at law, and disbursements of counsel for Lender in connection therewith, whether any suit is brought or not and whether incurred at trial or on appeal, and all costs of repossession, storage, disposition, protection, and collection of Collateral; (d) periodic field examinations, audits, and appraisals performed by Lender pursuant to
            Section 6.5 hereof; (e) any civil penalty or fine assessed by OFAC against Lender or any Affiliate of Lender and all reasonable costs and expense (including counsel fees and disbursements) incurred in connection with defense thereof by Lender or such Affiliate, as a result of Lender’s making extensions of credit hereunder, the acceptance of payments due under the Loan Documents or any Hedge Agreement, or acceptance of Collateral; or
            (f) any matter relating to the financing transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents or by any document executed in connection with the transactions contemplated thereby, other than for such loss, damage, liability, obligation, penalty, fee, cost or expense arising from such indemnitee’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. If any Borrower should fail to pay any tax or other amount required by this Agreement to be paid or which may be reasonably necessary to protect or
            preserve any Collateral or a Borrower’s or Lender’s interests therein, Lender may make such payment in the manner provided in Section 2.4(a) or Section 2.8(b). In addition, Borrower agrees to pay and save Lender harmless against any liability for payment of any state documentary stamp taxes, intangible taxes, or similar taxes (including interest or penalties, if any)
            which may now or hereafter be determined to be payable in respect to the execution, delivery, or recording of any Loan Document or the making of any Loan, whether originally thought to be due or not, and regardless of any mistake of fact or law on the part of Lender (or its counsel) or Borrower with respect to the applicability of such tax. Each Borrower’s obligation for indemnification for all of the foregoing losses, damages, liabilities, obligations, penalties, fees, costs,
            and expenses of Lender shall be part of the Obligations, secured by the Collateral, chargeable against such Borrower’s loan account as provided herein, and shall survive termination of this Agreement.

Any notice or other communication hereunder or under the Note to any party hereto or thereto shall be by hand delivery, overnight delivery via nationally recognized overnight delivery service, facsimile with receipt confirmed, or registered or certified United States mail with
            return receipt and unless otherwise provided herein shall be deemed to have been given or made when delivered, telegraphed, faxed or, if sent via United States mail, when receipt therefor is signed by the receiver, postage prepaid, addressed to the party at its address specified below (or at any other address that the party may hereafter specify to the other parties in writing):

            10.5      GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS SHALL BE DEEMED CONTRACTS MADE UNDER THE LAWS OF THE JURISDICTION AND SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE JURISDICTION (EXCLUDING ITS CONFLICT OF LAWS PROVISIONS IF SUCH PROVISIONS WOULD REQUIRE
            APPLICATION OF THE LAWS OF ANOTHER JURISDICTION) EXCEPT INSOFAR AS (A) THE LAWS OF ANOTHER JURISDICTION MAY, BY REASON OF MANDATORY PROVISIONS OF LAW, GOVERN THE PERFECTION, PRIORITY, OR ENFORCEMENT OF SECURITY INTERESTS IN THE COLLATERAL OR (B) THE TERMS OF SUCH LOAN DOCUMENT EXPRESSLY STATE THAT THE LAW OF A DIFFERENT JURISDICTION SHALL GOVERN.

            10.6      Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of each Borrower and Lender and their respective successors and assigns; provided, that no Borrower may assign any of its rights hereunder without
            the prior written consent of Lender, and any such assignment made without such consent will be void in all respects.

            10.7      Counterparts; Telecopied Signatures. This Agreement and any amendments, waivers, or consents relating hereto may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto or thereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed an
            original and all of which when taken together shall constitute but one and the same instrument. Any signature delivered by a party hereto or to any amendment, waiver, or consent relating hereto by facsimile transmission or by electronic email in Adobe Corporation’s Portable Document Format (or PDF) shall be deemed to be an original signature hereto.

            10.8      No Usury. Regardless of any other provision of this Agreement, each Note, or in any other Loan Document, if for any reason the effective rate of interest payable hereunder or thereunder should exceed the maximum lawful rate of interest, the effective rate of interest shall be deemed reduced
            to, and shall be, such maximum lawful rate of interest. Any amount paid or collected by Lender as interest which would be in excess of the amount permitted by applicable law shall be deemed applied to the reduction of the principal balance of the Obligations and not to the payment of interest, but if such Obligations have been or are thereby paid in full, the excess shall be returned to the Person paying same, such application to the principal balance of the Obligations or the
            refunding of excess to be a complete settlement and acquittance thereof.

            10.10    Approvals; Amendments. If this Agreement calls for Lender’s approval or consent, such approval or consent may be given or withheld in the discretion of Lender unless otherwise specified herein. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents may not be modified, altered, or amended, except by an
            agreement in writing signed by the affected Borrowers and Lender and may not be modified in any manner adverse to a counterparty to any secured or guarantied Hedge Agreement without that provider’s prior written consent.

            10.11    Participations and Assignments. Lender shall have the right to enter into one or more participations with other banks or financial institutions with respect to the Obligations and to assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its interest, rights, and obligations under the Loan Documents. Upon
            prior notice to Borrowers of any such participation or assignment, Borrowers shall thereafter furnish such participant or assignee with any information furnished by Borrowers to Lender pursuant to the terms of the Loan Documents. Nothing in this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall prohibit Lender from pledging or assigning this Agreement and Lender’s rights under any of the other Loan Documents, including Collateral therefor, to any Federal Reserve Bank in accordance
            with applicable law.

            10.12    Dealings with Multiple Borrowers. All Obligations, representations, warranties, covenants, and indemnities set forth in the Loan Documents to which each Borrower is a party shall be joint and several with each other Borrower, unless otherwise expressly provided. Lender shall have the right to deal with
            any individual of any

            Borrower with regard to all matters concerning the rights and obligations of Lender hereunder and pursuant to applicable law with regard to the transactions contemplated under the Loan Documents. All actions or inactions of the officers, managers, members, or agents of any Borrower with regard to the transactions contemplated under the Loan Documents shall be deemed with full authority and binding
            upon all Borrowers. Each Borrower hereby appoints Parent Company as its true and lawful agent, representative and attorney-in-fact, with full right and power, for purposes of exercising all rights of such Person hereunder and under applicable law with regard to the transactions contemplated under the Loan Documents, including the execution and delivery of Loan Documents and the giving (and receipt) of notices, including Notices of Borrowing, for and on behalf of all Borrowers, with
            the ability to bind all Borrowers thereto (Parent Company, acting in such capacity, herein called “Borrower Agent”); and Borrower Agent may so act, for each Borrower or all Borrowers, whether expressly so designated to do so pursuant hereto or to any other Loan Document. The provisions of this Section 10.12 and Lender’s reliance thereon are material inducements to
            the agreement of Lender to enter into this Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby.

            10.13    Waiver of Certain Defenses. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, neither any Borrower nor anyone claiming by or under Borrower will claim or seek to take advantage of any law requiring Lender to attempt to realize upon any Collateral or
            collateral of any Guarantor, or any appraisement, evaluation, stay, extension, homestead, redemption, or exemption laws now or hereafter in force to prevent or hinder the enforcement of this Agreement. Each Borrower, for itself and all who may at any time claim through or under any Borrower, hereby expressly waives to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law the benefit of all such laws. All rights of Lender and all obligations of Borrower hereunder shall be absolute and
            unconditional irrespective of (a) any change in the time, manner, or place of payment of, or any other term of, all or any of the Obligations, or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to any departure from any provision of the Loan Documents, (b) any exchange, release, or non-perfection of any other collateral given as security for the Obligations, or any release or amendment or waiver of or consent to departure from any guaranty for all or any of the Obligations, or (c)
            any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, Borrower or any third party, other than payment and performance in full of the Obligations.

            10.14    Additional Provisions. Time is of the essence of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. No provision of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents shall be construed against or interpreted to the disadvantage of any party hereto by any Governmental Entity by reason of such party having or
            being deemed to have structured, drafted or dictated such provision.

            10.15    Integration; Final Agreement. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents, together with all other instruments, agreements, and certificates executed by the parties in connection therewith or with reference thereto, embody the entire understanding and agreement between the parties hereto and thereto
            with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersede all prior agreements, understandings and inducements, whether express or implied, oral or written. There are no unwritten oral agreements between the parties.

            10.16    LIMITATION ON LIABILITY; WAIVER OF PUNITIVE DAMAGES. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO, INCLUDING LENDER BY ACCEPTANCE HEREOF, AGREES THAT IN ANY JUDICIAL, MEDIATION, OR ARBITRATION PROCEEDING OR ANY CLAIM OR CONTROVERSY BETWEEN OR AMONG THEM (A
            “DISPUTE”) THAT MAY ARISE OUT OF OR BE IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH THIS AGREEMENT, THE LOAN DOCUMENTS, OR ANY OTHER AGREEMENT OR DOCUMENT BETWEEN OR AMONG THEM OR THE OBLIGATIONS EVIDENCED HEREBY OR RELATED HERETO, IN NO EVENT SHALL ANY PARTY HAVE A REMEDY OF, OR BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER FOR, (a) INDIRECT, SPECIAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OR (b) PUNITIVE OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES. EACH OF THE PARTIES HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVES ANY
            RIGHT OR CLAIM TO PUNITIVE OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES THEY MAY HAVE OR WHICH MAY ARISE IN THE FUTURE IN CONNECTION WITH ANY DISPUTE, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER THE DISPUTE IS RESOLVED BY ARBITRATION, MEDIATION, JUDICIALLY, OR OTHERWISE.

            10.17    WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, EACH OF BORROWER BY EXECUTION HEREOF AND LENDER BY ACCEPTANCE HEREOF, KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT EACH MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION BASED ON, OR ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN
            CONNECTION

            (a)        Any legal action or proceeding with respect to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be brought in the courts of the State of Georgia in Cobb County or the State of Alabama in Jefferson County or of the United States for the Northern District of Georgia or the Northern District of Alabama, and, by execution and delivery
            of this Agreement, each Borrower irrevocably accepts for itself and in respect of its property, generally and unconditionally, the nonexclusive jurisdiction of such courts, and agrees to be bound by the other provisions set forth in this Section 10.18. Each Borrower further irrevocably consents to the service of process out of any of the aforementioned courts in any such action or proceeding by the mailing of copies thereof by
            registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, to it at the address set out for notices pursuant to Section 10.4, such service to become effective three days after such mailing. Nothing herein shall affect the right of Lender to serve process in any other manner permitted by law or to commence legal proceedings or to otherwise proceed against each Borrower or any other Credit Party in any other jurisdiction.

            (b)        Each Borrower hereby irrevocably waives any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any of the aforesaid actions or proceedings arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document brought in the courts referred to in subsection (a) above and hereby further irrevocably
            waives and agrees not to plead or claim in any such court that any such action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

            10.19    Credit Inquiries. Each Borrower hereby authorizes and permits Lender, at its discretion and without any obligation to do so, to respond to credit inquiries from third parties concerning any Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries.

            10.20    Information. Nothing in this Agreement shall prevent Lender from disclosing confidential information provided by any Credit Party from time to time (a) to any of Lender’s Affiliates, or any of Lender’s or any of its Affiliates’ officers, directors, employees, agents, or advisors, (b)
            to any other Person if reasonably incidental to the administration of the agreements made herein, (c) as required by any law, rule, or regulation, (d) upon the order, request or demand of any Governmental Entity; provided, however, that, to the extent permitted by law, Lender shall provide prior written notice to the affected Credit Party of any such request or demand, (e) that is
            or becomes available to the public or that is or becomes available to Lender other than as a result of a disclosure by Lender prohibited by this Agreement, (f) in connection with any litigation to which Lender or any of its Affiliates may be a party, whether to defend itself, reduce its liability, protect or exercise any of its claims, rights, remedies or interests under or in connection with the Loan Documents or any Hedge Agreements, or otherwise, (g) to the extent necessary in
            connection with the exercise of any remedy under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, and (h) to any actual or proposed participant or assignee; such information to consist of deal terms and other information customarily found in such publications. Each Credit Party and each Guarantor hereby authorizes Lender to use the name, logos and other insignia and the amount of the credit facility provided hereunder in any “tombstone” or comparable advertising, on its
            website or in other of Lender’s marketing materials.

            10.21    No Tax Advice. Each Credit Party hereby acknowledges and agrees that, with respect to all tax and accounting matters relating to this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, or the transactions contemplated herein and therein, it has not relied on any representations made, consultation provided by, or
            advice given or rendered by Lender or Lender’s representatives, agents, or employees, and, instead, such Credit Party has sought, and relied upon, the advice of its own tax and accounting professionals with respect to all such matters.
