SECTION 1. THE CREDIT

1.1          CREDIT FACILITIES

1.1.1       The Revolving Loan.  Bank will loan to Borrower an amount not to exceed Fifty Million and 00/100 Dollars ($50,000,000.00) outstanding in the aggregate at any one time (the “Revolving Loan”).  Revolving Loans will be denominated in Dollars.  The proceeds of the Revolving Loan shall be used for Borrower’s general working capital and corporate purposes.  Borrower may borrow, repay and reborrow all or part of the Revolving Loan in amounts of not less than One Million and 00/100 Dollars ($1,000,000.00) in accordance with the terms of the Revolving Note (defined below).  All borrowings of the Revolving Loan must be made before the Maturity Date, at which time all unpaid principal and interest of the Revolving Loan shall be due and payable.  The Revolving Loan shall be evidenced by Bank’s standard form of commercial promissory note (the “Revolving Note”).  Bank shall enter each amount borrowed and repaid in Bank’s records and such entries shall be deemed correct absent manifest error.  Omission of Bank to make any such entries shall not discharge Borrower of its obligation to repay in full with interest all amounts borrowed.  As of the date of this Agreement, the principal amount outstanding under Borrower’s revolving loan with Bank evidenced by the promissory note dated March 31, 2008 (“Old Note”) shall be deemed the initial principal amount outstanding under the Revolving Loan, and the Old Note is hereby cancelled and superceded by the Revolving Note.

(a)           The Commercial L/C Sublimit.  As a sublimit under the Revolving Loan, Bank shall issue, for the account of Borrower or its wholly-owned Subsidiaries, one or more irrevocable commercial letters of credit (individually, a “Commercial L/C”) with transport documents presented in a full set to Bank (and, in case of airway bills, consigned to Bank).  The aggregate amount available to be drawn under all outstanding Commercial L/Cs and the aggregate amount of unpaid reimbursement obligations under drawn Commercial L/Cs (collectively, the “Commercial L/C Exposure”) plus the Standby L/C Exposure (as defined below) as of such time, shall not exceed Twenty Five Million and 00/100 Dollars ($25,000,000.00) and shall reduce, dollar for dollar, the maximum amount available under the Revolving Loan.  All Commercial L/Cs shall be drawn on terms and conditions acceptable to Bank and shall be governed by the terms of (and Borrower agrees to execute and cause its wholly-owned Subsidiaries to execute, as applicable) Bank’s standard form of commercial letter of credit application and reimbursement agreement.  No Commercial L/C shall expire more than one hundred twenty (120) days from the date of its issuance, and in no event later than the Maturity Date, unless Bank agrees otherwise in its sole and absolute discretion.

(b)           The Standby L/C Sublimit.  As a sublimit under the Revolving Loan, Bank shall issue, for the account of Borrower or its wholly-owned Subsidiaries, one or more irrevocable standby letters of credit (individually, a “Standby L/C”).  The aggregate amount available to be drawn under all Standby L/Cs and the aggregate amount of unpaid reimbursement obligations under drawn Standby L/Cs (collectively, the “Standby

1

L/C Exposure”) plus the Commercial L/C Exposure as of such time, shall not exceed Twenty Five Million and 00/100 Dollars ($25,000,000.00) and shall reduce, dollar for dollar, the maximum amount available under the Revolving Loan.  All Standby L/Cs shall be drawn on terms and conditions acceptable to Bank and shall be governed by the terms of (and Borrower agrees to execute and cause its wholly-owned Subsidiaries to execute, as applicable) Bank’s standard form of standby letter of credit application and reimbursement agreement.  No Standby L/C shall expire more than three hundred sixty-five (365) days from the date of its issuance, and in no event later than the Maturity Date, unless Bank agrees otherwise in its sole and absolute discretion.

(c)           Letters of Credit for Subsidiaries; Cash Collateral.

(i)            Obligations Absolute.  The obligation of Borrower to reimburse Bank for each drawing under each L/C shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and under all circumstances, shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the related L/C documentation.  Notwithstanding that an L/C issued or outstanding is in support of any obligations of, or is for the account of, a Subsidiary (each a “Subsidiary L/C”), Borrower shall be obligated to reimburse Bank for any and all drawings under each such L/C.  Borrower hereby acknowledges that the issuance of L/C’s for the account of Subsidiaries inures to the direct and material benefit of Borrower, and that Borrower’s business derives substantial benefits from the businesses of such Subsidiaries.  Bank shall not be under any obligation to issue any L/C if the L/C is to be denominated in a currency other than Dollars.  Prior to and as a condition precedent to Bank’s obligation to issue any Subsidiary L/C under which a Subsidiary is the applicant, Borrower shall, if requested by Bank, execute a separate continuing guaranty of the obligations of its Subsidiaries under or in respect of such Subsidiary L/C, including reimbursement obligations and obligations with respect to fees (the “Subsidiary L/C Obligations”) which guaranty shall be in form satisfactory to Bank in its good faith credit judgment.

(ii)           Certain Waivers.  With respect to the Subsidiary L/C Obligations, Borrower authorizes Bank, without notice and without affecting Borrower’s liability with respect thereto, from time to time, to (a) renew, compromise, extend, accelerate, release, subordinate, waive, amend and restate, or otherwise amend or change, the interest rate, time or place for payment or any other terms of all or any part of the Subsidiary L/C Obligations; (b) accept delinquent or partial payments on the Subsidiary L/C Obligations; (c) take or not take security or other credit support for all or any part of the Subsidiary L/C Obligations, and exchange, enforce, waive, release, subordinate, fail to enforce or perfect, sell, or otherwise dispose of any such security or credit support; (d) apply proceeds of any such security or credit support and direct the order or manner of its sale or enforcement as Bank, at its sole discretion, may determine; and (e) release or substitute any Person liable on the Subsidiary L/C Obligations.  To the maximum extent permitted by law, Borrower waives (a) all rights to require Bank to proceed against any Subsidiary, or any other guarantor, or proceed against, enforce or exhaust any security for the Subsidiary L/C Obligations or to marshal assets or to pursue any other remedy in Bank’s power whatsoever; (b) all defenses arising by reason of any disability or other defense of any Subsidiary, the cessation for any reason of the liability of any Subsidiary, any defense that any other indemnity, guaranty or security was to be obtained, any claim that Bank has made Borrower’s obligations more burdensome or more burdensome than the applicable Subsidiary’s obligations, and the use of any proceeds of the Subsidiary

2

L/C Obligations other than as intended or understood by Bank or Borrower; (c) all presentments, demands for performance, notices of nonperformance, protests, notices of dishonor, notices of acceptance; (d) all rights to file a claim in connection with the Subsidiary L/C Obligations in an case or proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law filed by or against any Subsidiary; (e) all rights to require Bank to enforce any of its remedies with respect to Subsidiary L/C Obligations; and (f) until the Subsidiary L/C Obligations are satisfied or fully paid with such payment not subject to return: (i) all rights of subrogation, contribution, indemnification or reimbursement, (ii) all rights of recourse to any assets or property of such Subsidiaries, or to any collateral or credit support for the Subsidiary L/C Obligations, (iii) all rights to participate in or benefit from any security or credit support Bank may have or acquire with respect to the Subsidiary L/C Obligations, and (iv) all rights, remedies and defenses Borrower may have or acquire against the applicable Subsidiary.  Borrower warrants having established with each Subsidiary adequate means of obtaining, on an ongoing basis, such information as Borrower may require concerning all matters bearing on the risk of nonpayment or nonperformance of the Subsidiary L/C Obligations.  Borrower assumes sole, continuing responsibility for obtaining such information from sources other than from Bank.  Bank has no duty to provide any information to Borrower regarding any Subsidiary.

(c)           Cash Collateral.  If, on the date that is thirty (30) days prior to the Maturity Date, there are any outstanding L/C’s with expirations after the Maturity Date, then on such date Borrower shall provide to Bank cash collateral in an amount equal to 105% of the face amount of all such L/C’s, to secure all of the Obligations relating to such L/C’s.

4.12                        Litigation and Attorneys’ Fees.  Upon Bank’s demand, Borrower will promptly pay to Bank reasonable attorneys’ fees, including the reasonable estimate of the allocated costs and expenses of in-house legal counsel and staff, and all costs and other reasonable expenses paid or incurred by Bank in collecting, modifying or compromising the Revolving Loan or in enforcing or exercising its rights or remedies created by, connected with or provided for in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.  If any judicial action, arbitration or other proceeding is commenced, only the prevailing party shall be entitled to attorneys’ fees and court costs.
