Loan. 
  
 (c)    Conditions of WCMA Loans. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, MLBFS shall not be obligated to make any WCMA Loan, and may without notice refuse to honor any such request by Customer, if at the time of receipt by MLBFS of Customer’s request: (i) the making of such WCMA Loan would cause the

Loan at a time when any one or more of said conditions shall not have been met shall not in any event be construed as a waiver of said condition or conditions or of any Default, and shall not prevent MLBFS at any time thereafter while any condition
shall not have been met from refusing to honor any request by Customer for a WCMA Loan. 
  
 (d)    Limitation of Liability. MLBFS shall not be responsible, and shall have no liability to Customer or any other party, for any delay or failure of MLBFS to honor any request of Customer for a WCMA Loan or any other

MLPF&S or any of their affiliates unless directly arising out of the willful wrongful act or active gross negligence of MLBFS. In no event shall MLBFS be liable to Customer or any other party for any incidental or consequential damages arising

payable by Customer monthly on each Interest Due Date, commencing with the first Interest Due Date after the Activation Date. Unless otherwise hereafter directed in writing by MLBFS on or after the first to occur of the Maturity Date or the date of
termination of the WCMA Line of Credit pursuant to the terms hereof, such interest will be automatically charged to the WCMA Account on the applicable Interest Due Date, and, to the extent not paid with free credit balances or the proceeds of sales
of any Money Accounts then in the WCMA Account, as hereafter provided, paid by a WCMA Loan and added to the WCMA Loan Balance. All interest shall be computed for the actual number of days elapsed on the basis of a year consisting of 360 days.

  
 (ii)  Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Default, but
without limiting the rights and remedies otherwise available to MLBFS hereunder or waiving such Default, the interest payable by Customer hereunder shall at the option of MLBFS accrue and be payable at the Default Rate. The Default Rate, once
implemented, shall continue to apply to the Obligations under this Loan Agreement and be payable by Customer until the date MLBFS gives wntten notice that such Default has been cured to the satisfaction of MLBFS. 
  
 (iii)  Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in any of the Loan Documents, no
provision of any of the Loan Documents shall require the payment or permit the collection of Excess Interest. If any Excess Interest is provided for, or is adjudicated as being provided for, in any of the Loan Documents, then: (A) Customer shall not
be obligated to pay any Excess Interest; and (B) any Excess Interest that MLBFS may have received hereunder or under any of the Loan Documents shall, at the option of MLBFS, be either applied as a credit against the then unpaid WCMA Loan Balance or
refunded to the payor thereof.

payments required or permitted to be made pursuant to this Loan Agreement shall be made in lawful money of the United States. Unless otherwise directed by MLBFS, payments on account of the WCMA Loan Balance may be made by the delivery of checks
(other than WCMA Checks), or by means of FTS or wire transfer of funds (other than funds from the WCMA Line of Credit) to MLPF&S for credit to Customer’s WCMA Account. Notwithstanding anything in the WCMA Agreement to the contrary, Customer
hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs MLPF&S to apply available free credit balances in the WCMA Account to the repayment of the WCMA Loan Balance prior to application for any other purpose. Payments to MLBFS from funds in the WCMA Account
shall be deemed to be made by Customer upon the same basis and schedule as funds are made available for investment in the Money Accounts in accordance with the terms of the WCMA Agreement. All funds received by MLBFS from MLPF&S pursuant to the
aforesaid authorization shall be applied by MLBFS to repayment of the WCMA Loan Balance. The acceptance by or on behalf of MLBFS of a check or other payment for a lesser amount than shall be due from Customer, regardless of any endorsement or
statement thereon or transmitted therewith, shall not be deemed an accord and satisfaction or anything other than a payment on account, and MLBFS or anyone acting on behalf of MLBFS may accept such check or other payment without prejudice to the
rights of MLBFS to recover the balance actually due or to pursue any other remedy under this Loan Agreement or applicable law for such balance. All checks accepted by or on behalf of MLBFS in connection with the WCMA Line of Credit are subject to
final collection. 
  
 (g)    Irrevocable Instructions to
MLPF&S.  In order to minimize the WCMA Loan Balance, Customer hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs MLPF&S, effective on the Activation Date and continuing thereafter so long as this Loan Agreement shall be in effect: (i) to
immediately and prior to application for any other purpose pay to MLBFS to the extent of any WCMA Loan Balance or other amounts payable by Customer hereunder all available free credit balances from time to time in the WCMA Account; and (ii) if such
available free credit balances are insufficient to pay the WCMA Loan Balance and such other amounts, and there are in the WCMA Account at any time any investments in Money Accounts (other than any investments constituting any Minimum Money Accounts
Balance under the WCMA Directed Reserve Program), to immediately liquidate such investments and pay to MLBFS to the extent of any WCMA Loan Balance and such other amounts the available proceeds from the liquidation of any such Money Accounts.

  
 (h)    Late Charge.  Any payment or deposit required to be
made by Customer pursuant to the Loan Documents not paid or made within ten (10) days of the applicable due date shall be subject to a late charge in an amount equal to the lesser of: (a) 5 of the overdue amount, or (b) the maximum amount permitted
by applicable law. Such late charge shall be payable on demand, or, without demand, may in the sole discretion of MLBFS be paid by a Subsequent WCMA Loan and added to the WCMA Loan Balance in the same manner as provided herein for accrued interest
with respect to the WCMA Line of Credit. 
  
 (i)    Statements.  MLPF&S will include in each monthly statement it issues under the WCMA Program information with respect to WCMA Loans and the WCMA Loan Balance. Any questions that Customer may have with
respect to such. information should be directed to MLBFS; and any questions with respect to any other matter in such statements or about or affecting the WCMA Program should be directed to MLPF&S. 
  
 G)    Use of WCMA Loan Proceeds.  The proceeds of each WCMA Loan
initiated by Customer shall be used by Customer solely for working capital in the ordinary course of its business, or, with the prior written consent of MLBFS, for other lawful business purposes of Customer not prohibited hereby. Customer agrees
that under no circumstances will the proceeds of any WCMA Loan be used: (i) for personal, family or household purposes of any person whatsoever, or (ii) to purchase, carry or trade in securities, or repay debt incurred to purchase, carry or trade in
securities, whether in or in connection with the WCMA Account, another account of Customer with MLPF&S or an account of Customer at any other broker or dealer in securities, or (iii) unless otherwise consented to in writing by MLBFS, to pay any
amount to Men-ill Lynch and Co., Inc. or any of its subsidiaries, other than Merrill Lynch Bank USA, Merrill Lynch Bank & Trust Co. or any subsidiary of either of them (including MLBFS and Merrill Lynch Credit Corporation). 
  
 (k)    Renewal at Option of MLBFS; Right of Customer to Terminate.  MLBFS
may at any time, in its sole discretion and at its sole option, renew the WCMA Line of Credit for one or more Renewal Years or extend the Maturity Date; it being understood, however, that no such renewal or extension shall be effective unless set
forth in a writing executed by a duly authorized representative of MLBFS and delivered to Customer. Unless any such renewal or extension is accompanied by a proposed change in the terms of the WCMA Line of Credit (other than the extension of the
Maturity Date), no Customer approval shall be required. Customer shall, however, have the right to terminate the WCMA Line of Credit at any time upon written notice to MLBFS. Concurrently with any such termination, Customer shall pay to MLBFS the
entire WCMA Loan Balance and all other Obligations.

Customer during the period from the Activation Date to and including the last day of June, 2004 (the “Initial Line Period”), Customer has paid or shall pay the initial Line Fee to MLBFS. If the initial Line Fee has not heretofore been paid
by Customer, Customer hereby authorizes MLBFS, at its option, to either cause the initial Line Fee to be paid on the Activation Date with a WCMA Loan, or invoice Customer for such initial Line Fee (in which event Customer shall pay said fee within 5
Business Days after receipt of such invoice). No delay in the Activation Date, howsoever caused, shall entitle Customer to any rebate or reduction in the Line Fee or to any extension of the Initial Maturity Date. 
  
 (ii)  Customer shall pay to MLBFS an additional Line Fee for each 12-month period following
the Initial Line Period to the Initial Maturity Date, and for each Renewal Year, or an extension fee for any extension of the Maturity Date (each extension fee shall be equal to the pro rata amount of the Line Fee corresponding to the length of the
extension period). In connection therewith, Customer hereby authorizes MLBFS, at its option, to either cause each such fee to be paid with a WCMA Loan on or at any time after the first Business Day of such 12-month period or Renewal Year or
extension period, as applicable, or invoiced to Customer at such time (in which event Customer shall pay such Line Fee within 5 Business Days after receipt of such invoice). Each Line Fee and extension fee shall be deemed fully earned by MLBFS on
the date payable by Customer, and no termination of the WCMA Line of Credit, howsoever caused, shall entitle Customer to any rebate or refund of any portion of such fee; provided, however, that if Customer shall terminate the WCMA Line of Credit not
later than 5 Business Days after the receipt by Customer of notice from MLBFS of a renewal of the WCMA Line of Credit, Customer shall be entitled to a refund of any Line Fee charged by MLBFS for the ensuing Renewal Year.

prepay the Obligations by an amount equal to the actual cash value of such Collateral as determined by either the insurance company’s payment (plus any applicable deductible) or, in absence of insurance company payment, as reasonably determined
by MLBFS; it being further understood that any such permanent prepayment shall cause an immediate permanent reduction in the Maximum WCMA Line of Credit in the amount of such prepayment and shall not reduce the amount of any future reductions in the

 done or remedy any such breach, and may expend its funds for such purpose. Any and all reasonable amounts so expended by MLBFS
shall be repayable to MLBFS by Customer upon demand, with interest at the Interest Rate during the period from and including the date funds are so expended by MLBFS to the date of repayment, and all such amounts shall be additional Obligations. The
payment or performance by MLBFS of any of Customer’s obligations hereunder shall not relieve Customer of said obligations or of the consequences of having failed to pay or perform the same, and shall not waive or be deemed a cure of any
Default. 
  
 (f)    Further Assurances.  Customer agrees to do
such further acts and things and to execute and deliver to MLBFS such additional agreements, instruments and documents as MLBFS may reasonably require or deem advisable to effectuate the purposes of the Loan Documents, to confirm the WCMA Loan
Balance, or to establish, perfect and maintain MLBFS’ security interests and liens upon the Collateral, including, but not limited to: (i) executing financing statements or amendments thereto when and as reasonably requested by MLBFS; and (ii)
if in the reasonable judgment of MLBFS it is required by local law, causing the owners and/or mortgagees of the real property on which any Collateral may be located to execute and deliver to MLBFS waivers or subordinations reasonably satisfactory to
MLBFS with respect to any rights in such Collateral. 
  
 (g)    Binding
Effect.  This Loan Agreement and the Loan Documents shall be binding upon, and shall inure to the benefit of MLBFS, Customer and their respective successors and assigns. MLBFS reserves the right, at any time while the Obligations remain
outstanding, to sell, assign, syndicate or otherwise transfer or dispose of any or all of MLBFS’ rights and interests under the Loan Documents. MLBFS also reserves the right at any time to pool the WCMA Loan with one or more other loans
originated by MLBFS or any other Person, and to securitize or offer interests in such pool on whatever terms and conditions MLBFS shall determine. Customer consents to MLBFS releasing financial and other information regarding Credit Parties, the
Collateral and the WCMA Loan in connection with any such sale, pooling, securitization or other offering. Customer shall not assign any of its rights or delegate any of its obligations under this Loan Agreement or any of the Loan Documents without
the prior written consent of MLBFS. Unless otherwise expressly agreed to in a writing signed by MLBFS, no such consent shall in any event relieve Customer of any of its obligations under this Loan Agreement or the Loan Documents.

paragraph headings in this Loan Agreement are inserted only as a matter of convenience, and shall not affect the interpretation hereof; (ii) no provision of this Loan Agreement shall be construed against a particular Person or in favor of another
•Person merely because of which Person (or its representative) drafted or supplied the wording for such provision; and (iii) where the context requires: (a) use of the singular or plural incorporates the other, and (b) pronouns and modifiers in
the masculine, feminine or neuter gender shall be deemed to refer to or include the other genders.

including its conflict of law provisions. 
  
 (j)    Severability of
Provisions.  Whenever possible, each provision of this Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law. Any provision of this Loan Agreement or any of the
Loan Documents which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions of this Loan Agreement
and the Loan Documents or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction. 
  
 (k)    Term.  This Loan Agreement shall become effective on the date accepted by MLBFS at its office in Chicago, Illinois, and, subject to the terms
hereof, shall continue in effect so long thereafter as the WCMA Line of Credit shall be in effect or there shall be any Obligations outstanding. Customer hereby waives notice of acceptance of this Loan Agreement by MLBFS.

 (n)    Jurisdiction; Waiver.  Customer acknowledges that this Loan
Agreement is being accepted by MLBFS in partial consideration of MLBFS’ right and option, in its sole discretion, to enforce this Loan Agreement and all of the Loan Documents in either the State of Illinois or in any other jurisdiction where
Customer or any Collateral may be located. Customer irrevocably submits itself to jurisdiction in the State of Illinois and venue in any state or federal court in the County of Cook for such purposes, and Customer waives any and all rights to
contest said jurisdiction and venue and the convenience of any such forum, and any and all rights to remove such action from state to federal court. Customer further waives any rights to commence any action against MLBFS in any jurisdiction except
in the County of Cook and State of Illinois. Customer agrees that all such service of process shall be made by mail or messenger directed to it in the same manner as provided for notices to Customer in this Loan Agreement and that service so made
shall be deemed to be completed upon the earlier of actual receipt or three (3) days after the same shall have been posted to Customer or Customer’s agent. Nothing contained herein shall affect the right of MLBFS to serve legal process in any
other manner permitted by law or affect the right of MLBFS to bring any action or proceeding against Customer or its property in the courts of any other jurisdiction. Customer waives, to the extent permitted by law, any bond or surety or security
upon such bond which might, but for this waiver, be required of MLBFS. Customer further waives the right to bring any non-compulsory counterclaims. 
  
 (o)    Jury Waiver.  MLBFS and Customer hereby each expressly waive any and all rights to a trial by jury in any action, proceeding or counterclaim
brought by either of the parties against the other party with respect to any matter relating to, arising out of or in any way connected with the WCMA Line of Credit, the Obligations, this Loan Agreement, any of the Loan Documents and/or any of the
transactions which are the subject matter of this Loan Agreement. 
  
 (p)    Integration.  This Loan Agreement, together with the other Loan Documents, constitutes the entire understanding and represents the full and final agreement between the parties with respect to the subject
matter hereof, and may not be contradicted by evidence of prior written

Maturity Date, increase in the Maximum WCMA Line of Credit or other extension or agreement to extend credit shall be valid or binding unless expressly set forth in a written instrument signed by MLBFSA; and (iii) this Loan Agreement supercedes and
replaces any and all proposals, letters of intent and approval and commitment letters from MLBFS to Customer, none of Which shall be considered a Loan Document. No amendment or modification of any of the Loan Documents to which Customer is a party
