Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement
This Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement is entered into as of April 25, 2007, by and among Federal Signal Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Borrower”), the several Guarantors from time to time party hereto, the several financial institutions from time to time party to this Agreement, as Banks, and Bank of Montreal (“BMO”), as Agent as provided herein. All capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the same meanings herein as such terms are defined in Section 5.1 hereof.
Preliminary Statement
A. The Borrower refers to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of February 3, 2006, as amended and currently in effect (collectively, the “Existing Agreement”) among the Borrower, the Guarantors party thereto, the Banks party thereto, and Harris N.A., as Agent, pursuant to which the Banks agreed to make available to the Borrower a revolving credit for loans and letters of credit (the “Revolving Credit”) as described therein.
B. Harris N.A. has given notice of its intention to resign as Agent and the parties have agreed to substitute Bank of Montreal for Harris N.A. as Agent and, in connection therewith, to replace Harris N.A. as a Lender with BMO Capital Markets Financing, Inc.
C. The Borrower requests the Banks and Agent to amend the Existing Agreement to, among other things, extend the Termination Date, to make certain further amendments to the Existing Agreement and, for the sake of convenience and clarity, to restate the Existing Agreement as so amended in its entirety. Accordingly, upon the Banks’ and Agent’s acceptance hereof in the space provided for that purpose below and upon satisfaction of the conditions precedent to effectiveness hereinafter set forth, the Existing Agreement and all of the Exhibits thereto shall be amended and as so amended shall be restated in their entirety to read as follows:
Section 1. The Revolving Credit.
Section 1.1. The Loan Commitment. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, each Bank, by its acceptance hereof, severally agrees to make a loan or loans (individually a “Revolving Loan” and collectively “Revolving Loans”) to the Borrower from time to time on a revolving basis in U.S. Dollars up to the amount of its revolving credit commitment set forth on Schedule 1 hereto or pursuant to Section 1.9 or 13.12 hereof (its “Commitment” and, cumulatively for all the Banks, the “Commitments”), subject to any reductions thereof pursuant to the terms hereof, before the Termination Date. The aggregate principal amount of all Loans and L/C Obligations at any time outstanding shall not exceed the Commitments in effect at such time. Each Borrowing of Revolving Loans shall be made ratably from the Banks in proportion to their respective Percentages. As provided in Section 1.4(a) hereof, the Borrower may elect that each Borrowing of Revolving Loans be either Base Rate Loans or Eurodollar Loans. Revolving Loans may be repaid and the principal amount thereof reborrowed before the Termination Date, subject to all the terms and conditions hereof.

#####

Section 1.2. Applicable Interest Rates. (a) Base Rate Loans. Each Base Rate Loan made or maintained by a Bank shall bear interest during each Interest Period it is outstanding (computed on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as applicable, and actual days elapsed) on the unpaid principal amount thereof from the date such Loan is advanced, continued or created by conversion from a Eurodollar Loan until maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) at a rate per annum equal to the sum of the Applicable Margin plus the Base Rate from time to time in effect, payable on the last day of each calendar month, on the last day of its Interest Period and at maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise).
“Base Rate” means for any day the greater of:
(i) the rate of interest announced by the Agent from time to time as its prime commercial rate, or equivalent, for U.S. Dollar loans to borrowers located in the United States as in effect on such day, with any change in the Base Rate resulting from a change in said prime commercial rate to be effective as of the date of the relevant change in said prime commercial rate; or
(ii) the sum of (x) the rate determined by the Agent to be the prevailing rate per annum (rounded upwards, if necessary, to the nearest one hundred-thousandth of a percentage point) at approximately 10:00 a.m. (Chicago time) (or as soon thereafter as is practicable) on such day (or, if such day is not a Business Day, on the immediately preceding Business Day) for the purchase at face value of overnight Federal funds in an amount comparable to the principal amount owed to the Agent for which such rate is being determined, plus (y) 1/2 of 1% (0.50%).
(b) Eurodollar Loans. Each Eurodollar Loan made or maintained by a Bank shall bear interest during each Interest Period it is outstanding (computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and actual days elapsed) on the unpaid principal amount thereof from the date such Loan is advanced, continued, or created by conversion from a Base Rate Loan until maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) at a rate per annum equal to the sum of the Applicable Margin plus the greater of one and one-half percent (1.5%) or the Adjusted LIBOR applicable for such Interest Period, payable on the last day of each calendar month, on the last day of the Interest Period and at maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise).
“Adjusted LIBOR” means a rate per annum determined by the Agent pursuant to the following formula:

|  | Adjusted LIBOR |  | = |  | LIBOR 100%–Reserve Percentage |  |

“Reserve Percentage” means, for the purpose of computing Adjusted LIBOR, the maximum rate of all reserve requirements (including, without limitation, any marginal, emergency, supplemental or other special reserves) imposed by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (or any successor) under Regulation D on Eurocurrency liabilities (as such term is defined in Regulation D) for the applicable Interest Period as of the first day of such Interest Period, but subject to any amendments to such reserve requirement by such Board or its

-2-

#####

successor, and taking into account any transitional adjustments thereto becoming effective during such Interest Period. For purposes of this definition, LIBOR Portions shall be deemed to be Eurocurrency liabilities as defined in Regulation D without benefit of or credit for prorations, exemptions or offsets under Regulation D.
“LIBOR” means, for an Interest Period for a Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans, (a) the LIBOR Index Rate for such Interest Period, if such rate is available, and (b) if the LIBOR Index Rate cannot be determined, the arithmetic average of the rate of interest per annum (rounded upwards, if necessary, to nearest 1/100 of 1%) at which deposits in U.S. dollars in immediately available funds are offered to the Agent at 11:00 a.m. (London, England time) two (2) Business Days before the beginning of such Interest Period by major banks in the interbank eurodollar market for a period equal to such Interest Period and in an amount equal or comparable to the principal amount of such LIBOR Portion which is scheduled to be made as part of such Borrowing. Each determination of LIBOR made by the Agent shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error.
“LIBOR Index Rate” means, for any Interest Period, the rate per annum (rounded upwards, if necessary, to the next higher one hundred-thousandth of a percentage point) for deposits in U.S. Dollars for a period equal to such Interest Period, which appears on the LIBOR01 Page as of 11:00 a.m. (London, England time) on the day two (2) Business Days before the commencement of such Interest Period.
“LIBOR01 Page” means the display designated as “LIBOR01 Page” on the Reuters Service (or such other page as may replace the LIBOR01 Page on that service or such other service as may be nominated by the British Bankers’ Association as the information vendor for the purpose of displaying British Bankers’ Association Interest Settlement Rates for U.S. Dollar deposits).
(c) Rate Determinations. The Agent shall determine each interest rate applicable to the Loans and the Reimbursement Obligations hereunder, and a reasonable determination thereof by the Agent shall be conclusive and binding except in the case of manifest error or willful misconduct.
Section 1.3. Minimum Borrowing Amount . Each Borrowing of Base Rate Loans shall be in an amount not less than $5,000,000 and in integral multiples of $1,000,000. Each Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans shall be in an amount not less than $10,000,000 and in integral multiples of $1,000,000.
Section 1.4. Manner of Borrowing and Designating Interest Rates . (a) Notice to the Agent. The Borrower shall give notice to the Agent by no later than 11:00 a.m. (Chicago time) (i) at least three (3) Business Days before the date on which the Borrower requests the Banks to advance a Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans and (ii) on the date the Borrower requests the Banks to advance a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans. The Loans included in each Borrowing shall bear interest initially at the type of rate specified in such notice of a new Borrowing. Thereafter, the Borrower may from time to time elect to change or continue the type of interest rate borne by each Borrowing or, subject to Section 1.3’s minimum amount requirement for each outstanding

-3-

#####

Borrowing, a portion thereof, as follows: (i) if such Borrowing is of Eurodollar Loans, on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, the Borrower may continue part or all of such Borrowing as Eurodollar Loans for an Interest Period or Interest Periods specified by the Borrower or convert all or part of such Borrowing into Base Rate Loans and (ii) if such Borrowing is of Base Rate Loans, on any Business Day, the Borrower may convert all or part of such Borrowing into Eurodollar Loans for an Interest Period or Interest Periods specified by the Borrower. The Borrower shall give all such notices requesting the advance, continuation, or conversion of a Borrowing to the Agent by telephone or telecopy (which notice shall be irrevocable once given and, if by telephone, shall be promptly confirmed in writing). Notices of the continuation of a Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans for an additional Interest Period or of the conversion of part or all of a Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans into Base Rate Loans or of Base Rate Loans into Eurodollar Loans must be given by no later than 11:00 a.m. (Chicago time) at least three (3) Business Days before the date of the requested continuation or conversion. All such notices concerning the advance, continuation, or conversion of a Borrowing shall specify the date of the requested advance, continuation or conversion of a Borrowing (which shall be a Business Day), the amount of the requested Borrowing to be advanced, continued, or converted, the type of Loans to comprise such new, continued or converted Borrowing and, if such Borrowing is to be comprised of Eurodollar Loans, the Interest Period applicable thereto. The Borrower agrees that the Agent may rely on any such telephonic or telecopy notice given by any person it in good faith believes is an Authorized Representative without the necessity of independent investigation, and in the event any such notice by telephone conflicts with any written confirmation, such telephonic notice shall govern if the Agent has acted in reliance thereon.
(b) Notice to the Banks. The Agent shall give prompt telephonic or telecopy notice to each Bank of any notice from the Borrower received pursuant to Section 1.4(a) above. The Agent shall give notice to the Borrower and each Bank by like means of the interest rate applicable to each Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans.
(c) Borrower’s Failure to Notify. Any outstanding Borrowing of Base Rate Loans shall, subject to Section 7.2 hereof, automatically be continued for an additional Interest Period on the last day of its then current Interest Period unless the Borrower has notified the Agent within the period required by Section 1.4(a) that the Borrower intends to convert such Borrowing into a Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans or notifies the Agent within the period required by Section 2.3(a) that it intends to prepay such Borrowing. If the Borrower fails to give notice pursuant to Section 1.4(a) above of the continuation or conversion of any outstanding principal amount of a Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans before the last day of its then current Interest Period within the period required by Section 1.4(a) and has not notified the Agent within the period required by Section 2.3(a) that it intends to prepay such Borrowing, such Borrowing shall automatically be converted into a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans, subject to Section 7.2 hereof. In the event the Borrower fails to give notice pursuant to Section 1.4(a) above of a Borrowing equal to the amount of a Reimbursement Obligation and has not notified the Agent by 12:00 noon (Chicago time) on the day such Reimbursement Obligation becomes due that it intends to repay such Reimbursement Obligation through funds not borrowed under this Agreement, the Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans on

-4-

#####

such day in the amount of the Reimbursement Obligation then due, which Borrowing shall be applied to pay the Reimbursement Obligation then due.
(d) Disbursement of Loans. Not later than 12:00 Noon (Chicago time) on the date of any requested advance of a new Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans, and not later than 1:00 p.m. (Chicago time) on the date of any requested advance of a new Borrowing of Base Rate Loans, subject to Section 7 hereof, each Bank shall make available its Loan comprising part of such Borrowing in funds immediately available at the principal office of the Agent in Chicago, Illinois. The Agent shall make available to the Borrower Loans at the Agent’s principal office in Chicago, Illinois.
(e) Agent Reliance on Bank Funding. Unless the Agent shall have been notified by a Bank before the date on which such Bank is scheduled to make payment to the Agent of the proceeds of a Loan (which notice shall be effective upon receipt) that such Bank does not intend to make such payment, the Agent may assume that such Bank has made such payment when due and the Agent may in reliance upon such assumption (but shall not be required to) make available to the Borrower the proceeds of the Loan to be made by such Bank and, if any Bank has not in fact made such payment to the Agent, such Bank shall, on demand, pay to the Agent the amount made available to the Borrower attributable to such Bank together with interest thereon in respect of each day during the period commencing on the date such amount was made available to the Borrower and ending on (but excluding) the date such Bank pays such amount to the Agent at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate. If such amount is not received from such Bank by the Agent immediately upon demand, the Borrower will, on demand, repay to the Agent the proceeds of the Loan attributable to such Bank with interest thereon at a rate per annum equal to the interest rate applicable to the relevant Loan, but without such payment being considered a payment or prepayment of a Loan under Section 2.4 hereof, so that the Borrower will have no liability under such Section with respect to such payment.
Section 1.5. Default Rate. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 1.2 hereof, at the direction of the Required Banks while any Event of Default exists or (unless and until rescinded by the Required Banks) after acceleration, the Borrower shall pay interest (after as well as before entry of judgment thereon to the extent permitted by law) on the principal amount of all Loans, Reimbursement Obligations and letter of credit fees (computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and actual days elapsed or, if based on the Base Rate or with respect to Reimbursement Obligations, on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as applicable, and the actual number of days elapsed), at a rate per annum equal to:
(a) for any Base Rate Loan bearing interest based on the Base Rate, the sum of three percent (3%) plus the Applicable Margin plus the Base Rate from time to time in effect;
(b) for any Eurodollar Loan, the sum of three percent (3%) plus the rate of interest in effect thereon at the time of such default until the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto and, thereafter, at a rate per annum equal to the sum of three percent (3%) plus the Applicable Margin plus the Base Rate from time to time in effect;

-5-

#####

(c) for any Reimbursement Obligation, the sum of three percent (3.0%) plus the Base Rate from time to time in effect; and
(d) for any Letter of Credit, the sum of three percent (3.0%) plus the letter of credit fee due under Section 3.4 with respect to such Letter of Credit;
provided, however, that in the absence of acceleration or any other Event of Default pursuant to Section 9.1(a) hereof, any adjustments pursuant to this Section 1.5 shall be made at the election of the Required Banks with written notice to the Borrower. While any Event of Default exists or after acceleration, interest shall be paid on demand of the Agent at the request or with the consent of the Required Banks.
Section 1.6. Notes for Loans. (a) The Revolving Loans made to the Borrower by a Bank shall be evidenced by a single promissory note of the Borrower issued to such Bank in the form of Exhibit A-1 hereto. Each such promissory note is hereinafter referred to as a “Revolving Note” and collectively such promissory notes are referred to as the “Revolving Notes.”
(b) [Reserved]
(c) Each Bank shall record on its books and records or on a schedule to its appropriate Note the amount of each Loan advanced, continued, or converted by it, all payments of principal and interest and the principal balance from time to time outstanding thereon, the type of such Loan, and, for any Eurodollar Loan, the Interest Period and the interest rate applicable thereto. The record thereof, whether shown on such books and records of a Bank or on a schedule to any Note, shall be prima facie evidence as to all such matters; provided, however, that the failure of any Bank to record any of the foregoing or any error in any such record shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay all Loans made to it hereunder together with accrued interest thereon. At the request of any Bank and upon such Bank tendering to the Borrower the Note to be replaced, the Borrower shall furnish a new Note to such Bank to replace any outstanding Note, and at such time the first notation appearing on a schedule on the reverse side of, or attached to, such Note shall set forth the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all Loans, if any, then outstanding thereon.
Section 1.7. [Reserved].
Section 1.8. Letters of Credit. (a) General Terms. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, as part of the credit facility offered hereunder, the relevant L/C Issuer shall issue (or has issued in the case of the Existing Letters of Credit) standby and commercial letters of credit (each a “Letter of Credit") for the account of Borrower or for the account of the Borrower and one or more of its Subsidiaries as joint and several co-applicants in an aggregate undrawn face amount of all Letters of Credit (including the Existing Letters of Credit) up to the L/C Sublimit. Each Letter of Credit shall be issued by the L/C Issuer, but each Bank shall be obligated to reimburse the L/C Issuer for such Bank’s Percentage of the amount of each drawing thereunder and, accordingly, each Letter of Credit shall constitute usage of the Commitment of each Bank pro rata in an amount equal to its Percentage of the L/C Obligations then outstanding. Upon the

-6-

#####

Effective Date, each Existing Letter of Credit shall, without further action by any party, be deemed to have been issued as a Letter of Credit hereunder for all purposes hereof.
(b) Applications. At any time before the Termination Date, the relevant L/C Issuer shall, at the request of the Borrower, issue one or more Letters of Credit in U.S. Dollars, in a form satisfactory to the L/C Issuer, with expiration dates no later than the earlier of 12 months from the date of issuance (or which are cancelable not later than 12 months from the date of issuance and each renewal) or thirty (30) days prior to the Termination Date, in an aggregate face amount as set forth above, upon the receipt of an application duly executed by the Borrower and, if such Letter of Credit is also for the account of one of its Subsidiaries, such Subsidiary, for the relevant Letter of Credit in the form then customarily prescribed by the L/C Issuer for the Letter of Credit requested (each an “Application”). Notwithstanding anything contained in any Application to the contrary: (i) the Borrower shall pay fees in connection with each Letter of Credit as set forth in Section 3.4 hereof, (ii) before the occurrence of an Event of Default, the L/C Issuer will not call for the funding by the Borrower of any amount under a Letter of Credit before being presented with a drawing thereunder, and (iii) if the L/C Issuer is not timely reimbursed for the amount of any drawing under a Letter of Credit on the date such drawing is paid, the Borrower’s obligation to reimburse the L/C Issuer for the amount of such drawing shall bear interest (which the Borrower hereby promises to pay) from and after the date such drawing is paid at a rate per annum equal to the sum of the Applicable Margin plus the Base Rate from time to time in effect (computed on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and the actual number of days elapsed). If the L/C Issuer issues any Letter of Credit with an expiration date that is automatically extended unless the L/C Issuer gives notice that the expiration date will not so extend beyond its then scheduled expiration date, unless (x) all of the Banks (in the case of clauses (i) and (ii) below) or (y) the Required Banks (in the case of clause (iii) below) instruct the L/C Issuer otherwise, the L/C Issuer will give such notice of non-renewal before the time necessary to prevent such automatic extension if before such required notice date: (i) the expiration date of such Letter of Credit if so extended would be after the Termination Date, (ii) the Commitments have been terminated, or (iii) a Default or an Event of Default exists and the Agent, at the request or with the consent of the Required Banks, has given the L/C Issuer instructions not to so permit the extension of the expiration date of such Letter of Credit. The L/C Issuer agrees to issue amendments to the Letter(s) of Credit increasing the amount, or extending the expiration date, thereof at the request of the Borrower subject to the conditions of Section 7 hereof and the other terms of this Section 1.8.
(c) The Reimbursement Obligations. Subject to Section 1.8(b) hereof, the obligation of the Borrower to reimburse the L/C Issuer for all drawings under a Letter of Credit (a “Reimbursement Obligation”) shall be governed by the Application related to such Letter of Credit, except that reimbursement shall be made by no later than 12:00 Noon (Chicago time) on the date when each drawing is to be paid if the Borrower has been informed of such drawing by the L/C Issuer on or before 11:30 a.m. (Chicago time) on the date when such drawing is to be paid or, if notice of such drawing is given to the Borrower after 11:30 a.m. (Chicago time) on the date when such drawing is to be paid, by the end of such day, in immediately available funds at the Agent’s principal office in Chicago, Illinois or such other office as the Agent may designate in writing to the Borrower (who shall thereafter cause to be distributed to the L/C Issuer such amount(s) in like funds). If the Borrower does not make any such reimbursement payment on

-7-

#####

the date due and the Participating Banks fund their participations therein in the manner set forth in Section 1.8(d) below, then all payments thereafter received by the Agent in discharge of any of the relevant Reimbursement Obligations shall be distributed in accordance with Section 1.8(d) below.
(d) The Participating Interests. Each Bank (other than the Bank or Banks acting as an L/C Issuer in issuing the relevant Letter of Credit), by its acceptance hereof, severally agrees to purchase from the L/C Issuer, and the L/C Issuer hereby agrees to sell to each such Bank (a “Participating Bank”), an undivided percentage participating interest (a “Participating Interest”), to the extent of its Percentage, in each Letter of Credit issued by, and each Reimbursement Obligation owed to, the L/C Issuer. Upon any failure by the Borrower to pay any Reimbursement Obligation at the time required on the date the related drawing is to be paid, as set forth in Section 1.8(c) above, or if the L/C Issuer is required at any time to return to the Borrower or to a trustee, receiver, liquidator, custodian or other Person any portion of any payment of any Reimbursement Obligation, each Participating Bank shall, not later than the Business Day it receives a certificate in the form of Exhibit E hereto from the L/C Issuer (with a copy to the Agent) to such effect, if such certificate is received before 1:00 p.m. (Chicago time), or not later than 1:00 p.m. (Chicago time) the following Business Day, if such certificate is received after such time, pay to the Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer an amount equal to such Participating Bank’s Percentage of such unpaid or recaptured Reimbursement Obligation together with interest on such amount accrued from the date the related payment was made by the L/C Issuer to the date of such payment by such Participating Bank at a rate per annum equal to: (i) from the date the related payment was made by the L/C Issuer to the date 2 Business Days after payment by such Participating Bank is due hereunder, the Federal Funds Rate for each such day and (ii) from the date 2 Business Days after the date such payment is due from such Participating Bank to the date such payment is made by such Participating Bank, the Base Rate in effect for each such day. Each such Participating Bank shall thereafter be entitled to receive its Percentage of each payment received in respect of the relevant Reimbursement Obligation and of interest paid thereon, with the L/C Issuer retaining its Percentage thereof as a Bank hereunder. The several obligations of the Participating Banks to the L/C Issuer under this Section 1.8 shall be absolute, irrevocable, and unconditional under any and all circumstances whatsoever and shall not be subject to any set-off, counterclaim or defense to payment which any Participating Bank may have or have had against the Borrower, the L/C Issuer, the Agent, any Bank or any other Person whatsoever. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, such obligations shall not be affected by any Default or Event of Default or by any reduction or termination of any Commitment of any Bank, and each payment by a Participating Bank under this Section 1.8 shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever.
(e) Indemnification. The Participating Banks shall, to the extent of their respective Percentages, indemnify the L/C Issuer (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower) against any cost, expense (including reasonable counsel fees and disbursements), claim, demand, action, loss or liability (except such as result from the L/C Issuer’s gross negligence or willful misconduct) that the L/C Issuer may suffer or incur in connection with any Letter of Credit issued by it.

(i) shall subject any Bank (or its Lending Office) to any tax, duty or other charge with respect to its Eurodollar Loans, its Notes, its Letter(s) of Credit, or its participation in any thereof, any Reimbursement Obligation owed to it or its obligation to make Eurodollar Loans, issue a Letter of Credit, or to participate therein, or shall change the basis of taxation of payments to any Bank (or its Lending Office) of the principal of or interest on its Eurodollar Loans, Letter(s) of Credit, or participations therein or any other amounts due under this Agreement in respect of its Eurodollar Loans, Letter(s) of Credit, any participation therein, any Reimbursement Obligation owed to it, or its obligation to make Eurodollar Loans, or issue a Letter of Credit, or acquire participations therein (except for changes in the rate of tax on the overall net income or profits of such Bank or its Lending Office imposed by the jurisdiction in which such Bank or its lending office is incorporated, or in which such Bank’s principal executive office or Lending Office is located); or

-56-

#####

(ii) shall impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement (including, without limitation, any such requirement imposed by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, but excluding with respect to any Eurodollar Loans any such requirement included in an applicable Eurodollar Reserve Percentage) against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Bank (or its Lending Office) or shall impose on any Bank (or its Lending Office) or on the interbank market any other condition affecting its Eurodollar Loans, its Notes, its Letter(s) of Credit, or its participation in any thereof, any Reimbursement Obligation owed to it, or its obligation to make Eurodollar Loans, or to issue a Letter of Credit, or to participate therein;
and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Bank (or its Lending Office) of making or maintaining any Eurodollar Loan, issuing or maintaining a Letter of Credit, or participating therein, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Bank (or its Lending Office) under this Agreement or under its Notes with respect thereto, by an amount deemed by such Bank to be material, then, within fifteen (15) days after demand by such Bank (with a copy to the Agent), the Borrower shall be obligated to pay to such Bank such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Bank for such increased cost or reduction; provided, however, that such Bank shall promptly notify the Borrower of an event which might cause it to seek compensation, and the Borrower shall be obligated to pay only such compensation which is incurred or which arises after the date ninety (90) days prior to the date such notice is given. In the event any law, rule, regulation or interpretation described above is revoked, declared invalid or inapplicable or is otherwise rescinded, and as a result thereof a Bank is determined to be entitled to a refund from the applicable authority for any amount or amounts which were paid or reimbursed by Borrower to such Bank hereunder, such Bank shall refund such amount or amounts to Borrower without interest.
(b) If any Bank or the Agent shall have determined that the adoption, after the date hereof, of any applicable law, rule or regulation regarding capital adequacy, or any change therein (including, without limitation, any revision in the Final Risk-Based Capital Guidelines of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (12 CFR Part 208, Appendix A; 12 CFR Part 225, Appendix A) or of the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (12 CFR Part 3, Appendix A), or in any other applicable capital rules heretofore adopted and issued by any governmental authority), or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any Bank (or its Lending Office) with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law but, if not having the force of law, compliance with which is customary in the applicable jurisdiction) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Bank’s capital, or on the capital of any corporation controlling such Bank, as a consequence of its obligations hereunder to a level below that which such Bank could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration such Bank’s policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by such Bank to be material, then from time to time, within fifteen (15) days after demand by such Bank (with a copy to the Agent), the Borrower shall pay to such Bank such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Bank for such reduction; provided, however, that such Bank shall promptly

-57-

#####

notify the Borrower of an event which might cause it to seek compensation, and the Borrower shall be obligated to pay only such compensation which is incurred or which arises after the date ninety (90) days prior to the date such notice is given.
(c) Each Bank that determines to seek compensation under this Section 10.3 shall notify the Borrower and the Agent of the circumstances that entitle the Bank to such compensation pursuant to this Section 10.3 and will designate a different Lending Office if such designation will avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, such compensation and will not, in the judgment of such Bank, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Bank. A certificate of any Bank claiming compensation under this Section 10.3 and setting forth the additional amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder shall be conclusive in the absence of demonstrable error. In determining such amount, such Bank may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods.
Section 10.4. Lending Offices. Each Bank may, at its option, elect to make its Loans hereunder at the branch, office or affiliate specified on the appropriate signature page hereof (each a “Lending Office”) for each type of Loan available hereunder or at such other of its branches, offices or affiliates as it may from time to time elect and designate in a written notice to the Borrower and the Agent.
Section 10.5. Discretion of Bank as to Manner of Funding. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, each Bank shall be entitled to fund and maintain its funding of all or any part of its Loans in any manner it sees fit, it being understood, however, that for the purposes of this Agreement all determinations hereunder shall be made as if each Bank had actually funded and maintained each Eurodollar Loan through the purchase of deposits in the eurodollar interbank market having a maturity corresponding to such Loan’s Interest Period and bearing an interest rate equal to LIBOR for such Interest Period.
Section 11. The Agent.
Section 11.1. Appointment and Authorization of Agent. Harris N.A. is the agent for the Banks under the Existing Credit Agreement. Harris N.A.’s execution of this Agreement shall serve as its written notice that it resigns as agent under the Existing Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Each Bank hereby appoints Bank of Montreal as the Agent under the Credit Documents and hereby authorizes the Agent to take such action as Agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under the Credit Documents as are delegated to the Agent by the terms thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, including without limitation the power to execute and deliver an acknowledgement page to the Intercreditor Agreement binding each such Bank with respect to the provisions thereof to the same effect as if such Bank had itself executed and delivered such acknowledgement page.
Section 11.2. Agent and its Affiliates. The Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents as any other Bank and may exercise or refrain from exercising the same as though it were not the Agent, and the Agent and its affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or any Affiliate of the Borrower as if it were not the Agent under the Credit Documents. The term “Bank” as used herein and in all other Credit Documents, unless the

-58-

#####

context otherwise clearly requires, includes the Agent in its individual capacity as a Bank (if applicable). References in Section 1 hereof to the Agent’s Loans, or to the amount owing to the Agent for which an interest rate is being determined, refer to the Agent in its individual capacity as a Bank.
Section 11.3. Action by Agent. If the Agent receives from the Borrower or a Bank a written notice of an Event of Default pursuant to Section 8.6(c)(i) hereof, the Agent shall promptly give each of the Banks written notice thereof. The Banks expressly agree that the Agent is not acting as a fiduciary of the Banks in respect of the Credit Documents, the Company or otherwise, and nothing herein or in any of the other Credit Documents shall result in any duties or obligations on the Agent or any of the Banks except as expressly set forth herein. The obligations of the Agent under the Credit Documents are only those expressly set forth therein. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Agent shall not be required to take any action hereunder with respect to any Default or Event of Default, except as expressly provided in Sections 9.2 and 9.4. In no event, however, shall the Agent be required to take any action in violation of applicable law or of any provision of any Credit Document, and the Agent shall in all cases be fully justified in failing or refusing to act hereunder or under any other Credit Document unless it shall be first indemnified to its reasonable satisfaction by the Banks against any and all costs, expense, and liability which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. The Agent shall be entitled to assume that no Default or Event of Default exists unless notified to the contrary by a Bank or the Borrower. In all cases in which this Agreement and the other Credit Documents do not require the Agent to take certain actions, the Agent shall be fully justified in using its discretion in failing to take or in taking any action hereunder and thereunder.
Section 11.4. Consultation with Experts. The Agent may consult with legal counsel, independent public accountants and other experts selected by it and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts.
Section 11.5. Liability of Agent; Credit Decision. Neither the Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents, or employees shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in connection with the Credit Documents (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Banks or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. Neither the Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents or employees shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into or verify (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in connection with this Agreement, any other Credit Document or any Credit Event; (ii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants or agreements of the Borrower or any Guarantor contained herein or in any other Credit Document; (iii) the satisfaction of any condition specified in Section 7 hereof, except receipt of items required to be delivered to the Agent; or (iv) the validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability, perfection, value, worth or collectibility hereof or of any other Credit Document or of any other documents or writing furnished in connection with any Credit Document or of any Collateral; and the Agent makes no representation of any kind or character with respect to any such matter mentioned in this sentence. The Agent may execute any of its duties under any of the Credit Documents by or through employees, agents, and attorneys-in-fact and shall not be answerable to the Banks, the

-59-

#####

Borrower, or any Guarantor or any other Person for the default or misconduct of any such agents or attorneys-in-fact selected with reasonable care. The Agent shall not incur any liability by acting in reliance upon any notice, consent, certificate, other document or statement (whether written or oral) believed by it to be genuine or to be sent by the proper party or parties. In particular and without limiting any of the foregoing, the Agent shall have no responsibility for confirming the accuracy of any Compliance Certificate or other document or instrument received by it under the Credit Documents. The Agent may treat the payee of any Note as the holder thereof until written notice of transfer shall have been filed with the Agent signed by such payee in form satisfactory to the Agent. Each Bank acknowledges that it has independently and without reliance on the Agent or any other Bank, and based upon such information, investigations and inquiries as it deems appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to extend credit to the Borrower in the manner set forth in the Credit Documents. It shall be the responsibility of each Bank to keep itself informed as to the creditworthiness of the Borrower and the Guarantors, and the Agent shall have no liability to any Bank with respect thereto.
Section 11.6. Indemnity. The Banks shall ratably, in accordance with their respective Percentages, indemnify and hold the Agent, and its directors, officers, employees, agents and representatives harmless from and against any liabilities, losses, costs or expenses suffered or incurred by it under any Credit Document or in connection with the transactions contemplated thereby, regardless of when asserted or arising, except to the extent they are promptly reimbursed for the same by the Borrower and except to the extent that any event giving rise to a claim was caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the party seeking to be indemnified. The obligations of the Banks under this Section 11.6 shall survive termination of this Agreement.
Section 11.7. Resignation of Agent and Successor Agent. The Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Banks and the Borrower. Upon any such resignation of the Agent, the Required Banks shall have the right to appoint a successor Agent with the consent of the Borrower. If no successor Agent shall have been so appointed by the Required Banks, and shall have accepted such appointment, within thirty (30) days after the retiring Agent’s giving of notice of resignation, then the retiring Agent may, on behalf of the Banks, appoint a successor Agent, which shall be any Bank hereunder or any commercial bank organized under the laws of the United States of America or of any State thereof and having a combined capital and surplus of at least $200,000,000. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as the Agent hereunder, such successor Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights and duties of the retiring or removed Agent under the Credit Documents, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations thereunder. After any retiring Agent’s resignation hereunder as Agent, the provisions of this Section 11 and all protective provisions of the other Credit Documents shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Agent.
Section 11.8. Designation of Additional Agents. The Agent shall have the continuing right, for purposes hereof, at any time and from time to time to designate one or more of the Banks (and/or its or their Affiliates) as “syndication agents,” “documentation agents,” “arrangers” or other designations for purposes hereto, but such designation shall have not substantive effect, and such Banks and their Affiliates shall have no additional powers, duties or responsibilities as a result thereof.

Section 11.9. Hedging Liability and Funds Transfer and Deposit Account Liability Arrangements. By virtue of a Bank’s execution of this Agreement or an assignment agreement pursuant to Section 13.12 hereof, as the case may be, any Affiliate of such Bank with whom the Borrower or any Guarantor has entered into an agreement creating Hedging Liability or Funds Transfer and Deposit Account Liability shall be deemed a Bank party hereto for purposes of any reference in a Credit Document to the parties for whom the Agent is acting, it being understood and agreed that the rights and benefits of such Affiliate under the Credit Documents consist exclusively of such Affiliate’s right to share in payments and collections arising out of the Collateral and the guaranties as more fully set forth in Section 4.2 hereof. In connection with any such distribution of payments and collections, or any request for the release of the guaranties and the Agent’s Liens in connection with the termination of the Commitments and the payment in full of the Obligations, the Agent shall be entitled to assume no amounts are due to any Bank or its Affiliate with respect to Hedging Liability or Funds Transfer and Deposit Account Liability unless such Bank has notified the Agent in writing of the amount of any such liability owed to it or its Affiliate prior to such distribution or payment or release of guaranties and Liens.
Section 11.10. L/C Issuer. The L/C Issuer shall act on behalf of the Banks with respect to any Letters of Credit issued by it and the documents associated therewith. The L/C Issuer shall have all of the benefits and immunities (i) provided to the Agent in this Section 11 with respect to any acts taken or omissions suffered by the L/C Issuer in connection with Letters of Credit issued by it or proposed to be issued by it and the Applications pertaining to such Letters of Credit, as fully as if the term “Agent”, as used in this Section 11, included the L/C Issuer with respect to such acts or omissions and (ii) as additionally provided in this Agreement with respect to such L/C Issuer.
Section 12. The Guarantees.
Section 12.1. The Guarantees. To induce the Banks to provide the credits described herein and in consideration of benefits expected to accrue to each Guarantor by reason of the Commitments and for other good and valuable consideration, receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, each Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees jointly and severally to the Agent, on behalf of and for the benefit of the Banks and each other holder of an Obligation or of Hedging Liability, (i) the due and punctual payment of all present and future indebtedness of the Borrower evidenced by or arising out of the Credit Documents, including, but not limited to, the due and punctual payment of principal of and interest on the Notes, the Reimbursement Obligations, and the due and punctual payment of all other Obligations now or hereafter owed by the Borrower under the Credit Documents, and (ii) the due and punctual payment of all present and future Hedging Liability, as and when the same shall become due and payable, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, according to the terms hereof and thereof. In case of failure by the Borrower punctually to pay any indebtedness or other Obligations or Hedging Liability guaranteed hereby, each Guarantor hereby unconditionally agrees jointly and severally to make such payment or to cause such payment to be made punctually as and when the same shall become due and payable, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, and as if such payment were made by the Borrower.

-61-

#####

Section 12.2. Guarantee Unconditional. The obligations of each Guarantor as a guarantor under this Section 12 shall be unconditional and absolute and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, shall not be released, discharged or otherwise affected by:
(a) any extension, renewal, settlement, compromise, waiver or release in respect of any obligation of the Borrower or of any other Guarantor under this Agreement or any other Credit Document or by operation of law or otherwise;
(b) any modification or amendment of or supplement to this Agreement or any other Credit Document;
(c) any change in the corporate existence, structure or ownership of, or any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or other similar proceeding affecting, the Borrower, any other Guarantor, or any of their respective assets, or any resulting release or discharge of any obligation of the Borrower or of any other Guarantor contained in any Credit Document;
(d) the existence of any claim, set-off or other rights which the Guarantor may have at any time against the Agent, any Bank or any other Person, whether or not arising in connection herewith;
(e) any failure to assert, or any assertion of, any claim or demand or any exercise of, or failure to exercise, any rights or remedies against the Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person or Property;
(f) any application of any sums by whomsoever paid or howsoever realized to any obligation of the Borrower, regardless of what obligations of the Borrower remain unpaid;
(g) any invalidity or unenforceability relating to or against the Borrower or any other Guarantor for any reason of this Agreement or of any other Credit Document or any provision of applicable law or regulation purporting to prohibit the payment by the Borrower or any other Guarantor of the principal of or interest on any Note or any other amount payable by it under the Credit Documents; or
(h) any other act or omission to act or delay of any kind by the Agent, any Bank or any other Person or any other circumstance whatsoever that might, but for the provisions of this paragraph, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of the obligations of the Guarantor under this Section 12.
Section 12.3. Discharge Only Upon Payment in Full; Reinstatement in Certain Circumstances. Each Guarantor’s obligations under this Section 12 shall remain in full force and effect until the Commitments are terminated and the principal of and interest on the Notes and all other amounts payable by the Borrower under this Agreement and all other Credit Documents and, if then outstanding and unpaid, all Hedging Liability, shall have been paid in full. If at any time any payment of the principal of or interest on any Note or any other amount payable by the

-62-

#####

Borrower under the Credit Documents is rescinded or must be otherwise restored or returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Borrower or of a Guarantor, or otherwise, each Guarantor’s obligations under this Section 12 with respect to such payment shall be reinstated at such time as though such payment had become due but had not been made at such time.
Section 12.4. Waivers. (a) General. Each Guarantor irrevocably waives acceptance hereof, presentment, demand, protest and any notice not provided for herein, as well as any requirement that at any time any action be taken by the Agent, any Bank or any other Person against the Borrower, another Guarantor or any other Person.
(b) Subrogation and Contribution. Unless and until the Obligations and Hedging Liability have been fully paid and satisfied and the Commitments have terminated, each Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives any claim or other right it may now or hereafter acquire against the Borrower or any other Guarantor that arises from the existence, payment, performance or enforcement of such Guarantor’s obligations under this Section 12 or any other Credit Document, including, without limitation, any right of subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution, indemnification, or any right to participate in any claim or remedy of the Agent, any Bank or any other holder of an Obligation or Hedging Liability against the Borrower or any other Guarantor whether or not such claim, remedy or right arises in equity or under contract, statute or common law, including, without limitation, the right to take or receive from the Borrower or any other Guarantor directly or indirectly, in cash or other property or by set-off or in any other manner, payment or security on account of such claim or other right.
Section 12.5. Limit on Recovery. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, the right to recovery of the holders of the Obligations against each Guarantor under this Section 12 shall not exceed $1.00 less than the amount which would render such Guarantor’s obligations under this Section 12 void or voidable under applicable law, including without limitation fraudulent conveyance law.
Section 12.6. Stay of Acceleration. If acceleration of the time for payment of any amount payable by the Borrower under this Agreement or any other Credit Document or with respect to any Hedging Liability is stayed upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Borrower, all such amounts otherwise subject to acceleration under the terms of this Agreement or the other Credit Documents or under any agreement establishing Hedging Liability shall nonetheless be payable jointly and severally by the Guarantors hereunder forthwith on demand by the Agent made at the request of the Required Banks.
Section 12.7. Benefit to Guarantors. The Borrower and all of the Guarantors are engaged in related businesses and integrated to such an extent that the financial strength and flexibility of the Borrower and each Guarantor has a direct impact on the success of each other Guarantor. Each Guarantor will derive substantial direct and indirect benefit from the extension of credit hereunder.
Section 12.8. Guarantor Covenants. Each Guarantor shall take such action as the Borrower is required by this Agreement to cause such Guarantor to take, and shall refrain from

-63-

#####

taking such action as the Borrower is required by this Agreement to prohibit such Guarantor from taking.
Section 13. Miscellaneous.
Section 13.1. Withholding Taxes. (a) Payments Free of Withholding. Except as otherwise required by law and subject to Section 13.1(b) hereof, each payment by the Borrower and each Guarantor under this Agreement or the other Credit Documents shall be made without withholding for or on account of any present or future taxes (other than overall net income taxes on the recipient) imposed by or within the jurisdiction in which the Borrower or such Guarantor is domiciled, any jurisdiction from which the Borrower or such Guarantor makes any payment, or (in each case) any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein. If any such withholding is so required, the Borrower or relevant Guarantor shall make the withholding, pay the amount withheld to the appropriate governmental authority before penalties attach thereto or interest accrues thereon and forthwith pay such additional amount as may be necessary to ensure that the net amount actually received by each Bank and the Agent free and clear of such taxes (including such taxes on such additional amount) is equal to the amount which that Bank or the Agent (as the case may be) would have received had such withholding not been made. If the Agent, or any Bank pays any amount in respect of any such taxes, penalties or interest the Borrower shall reimburse the Agent, or that Bank for that payment on demand in the currency in which such payment was made. If the Borrower or any Guarantor pays any such taxes, penalties or interest, it shall deliver official tax receipts evidencing that payment or certified copies thereof to the Bank or Agent on whose account such withholding was made (with a copy to the Agent if not the recipient of the original) on or before the thirtieth day after payment. If any Bank or the Agent determines it has received or been granted a credit against or relief or remission for, or repayment of, any taxes paid or payable by it because of any taxes, penalties or interest paid by the Borrower or any Guarantor and evidenced by such a tax receipt, such Bank or Agent shall, to the extent it can do so without prejudice to the retention of the amount of such credit, relief, remission or repayment, pay to the Borrower or such Guarantor as applicable, such amount as such Bank or Agent determines is attributable to such deduction or withholding and which will leave such Bank or Agent (after such payment) in no better or worse position than it would have been in if the Borrower had not been required to make such deduction or withholding. Nothing in this Agreement shall interfere with the right of each Bank and the Agent to arrange its tax affairs in whatever manner it thinks fit nor oblige any Bank or the Agent to disclose any information relating to its tax affairs or any computations in connection with such taxes.
(b) U.S. Withholding Tax Exemptions. Each Bank that is not a United States person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) (a “Non-U.S. Person”) shall submit to the Borrower and the Agent on or before the earlier of the date the initial Borrowing is made hereunder and thirty (30) days after the date hereof, two duly completed and signed copies of either Form W-8 BEN (relating to such Bank and entitling it to a complete exemption from withholding under the Code on all amounts to be received by such Bank, including fees, pursuant to the Credit Documents and the Loans) or Form W-8 ECI (relating to all amounts to be received by such Bank, including fees, pursuant to the Credit Documents and the Loans) of the United States Internal Revenue Service or, in the case of any Bank exempt from United States Federal withholding tax pursuant to Sections 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code, a Form W-8 or any successor

-64-

#####

applicable form (a “Form W-8”) together with a statement under penalty of perjury that such Bank is not a “bank” under Section 881(c)(3) of the Code. Thereafter and from time to time, each Bank shall submit to the Borrower and the Agent such additional duly completed and signed copies of one or the other of such Forms (or such successor forms as shall be adopted from time to time by the relevant United States taxing authorities) as may be (i) requested by the Borrower in a written notice, directly or through the Agent, to such Bank and (ii) required under then-current United States law or regulations to avoid or reduce United States withholding taxes on payments in respect of all amounts to be received by such Bank, including fees, pursuant to the Credit Documents or the Loans. Each Bank that is a Non-U.S. Person and that is a party hereto as of the Closing Date hereby represents and warrants that, as of the Closing Date, payments made to it hereunder are exempt from the withholding of United States Federal income taxes (i) because such payments are effectively connected with a United States trade or business conducted by such Non-U.S. Person; (ii) pursuant to the terms of an income tax treaty between the United States and such Non-U.S. Person’s country of residence; or (iii) because such payments are portfolio interest exempt pursuant to Sections 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code.
(c) Inability of Bank to Submit Forms. If any Bank determines, as a result of any change in applicable law, regulation or treaty, or in any official application or interpretation thereof, that it is unable to submit to the Borrower or Agent any form or certificate that such Bank is obligated to submit pursuant to subsection (b) of this Section 13.1 or that such Bank is required to withdraw or cancel any such form or certificate previously submitted or any such form or certificate otherwise becomes ineffective or inaccurate, such Bank shall promptly notify the Borrower and Agent of such fact and the Bank shall to that extent not be obligated to provide any such form or certificate and will be entitled to withdraw or cancel any affected form or certificate, as applicable.
(d) Exception. Notwithstanding any provision of Section 13.1(a) above to the contrary, the Borrower shall not have any obligation to pay any taxes or to indemnify any Bank for such taxes pursuant to this Section 13.1 to the extent that such taxes result from (i) the failure of any Bank to comply with its obligations pursuant to Section 13.1(b) or (ii) any representation made on Form W-8 BEN, W-8 ECI or W-8 or successor applicable form or certification by any Bank incurring such taxes proving to have been incorrect, false or misleading in any material respect when so made or deemed to be made.
Section 13.2. No Waiver of Rights. No delay or failure on the part of the Agent or any Bank or on the part of the holder or holders of any Note in the exercise of any power or right under any Credit Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor as an acquiescence in any default, nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise of any other power or right, and the rights and remedies hereunder of the Agent, the Banks and the holder or holders of any Notes are cumulative to, and not exclusive of, any rights or remedies which any of them would otherwise have.
Section 13.3. Non-Business Day. If any payment of principal or interest on any Loan or of any other Obligation shall fall due on a day which is not a Business Day, interest or fees (as applicable) at the rate, if any, such Loan or other Obligation bears for the period prior to maturity

-65-

#####

shall continue to accrue on such Obligation from the stated due date thereof to and including the next succeeding Business Day, on which the same shall be payable.
Section 13.4. Documentary Taxes. The Borrower agrees that it will pay any documentary, stamp or similar taxes payable in respect to any Credit Document, including interest and penalties, in the event any such taxes are assessed, irrespective of when such assessment is made and whether or not any credit is then in use or available hereunder.
Section 13.5. Survival of Representations. All representations and warranties made herein or in certificates given pursuant hereto shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, and shall continue in full force and effect with respect to the date as of which they were made as long as any credit is in use or available hereunder.
Section 13.6. Survival of Indemnities. All indemnities and all other provisions relative to reimbursement to the Banks of amounts sufficient to protect the yield of the Banks with respect to the Loans, including, but not limited to, Section 2.4, Section 10.3 and Section 13.15 hereof, shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents and the payment of the Loans and all other Obligations.
Section 13.7. Sharing of Set-Off. Each Bank agrees with each other Bank a party hereto that if such Bank shall receive and retain any payment, whether by set-off or application of deposit balances or otherwise (“Set-off”), on any of the Loans or Reimbursement Obligations in excess of its ratable share of payments on all such Obligations then outstanding to the Banks, then such Bank shall purchase for cash at face value, but without recourse, ratably from each of the other Banks such amount of the Loans or Reimbursement Obligations, or participations therein, held by each such other Banks (or interest therein) as shall be necessary to cause such Bank to share such excess payment ratably with all the other Banks; provided, however, that if any such purchase is made by any Bank, and if such excess payment or part thereof is thereafter recovered from such purchasing Bank, the related purchases from the other Banks shall be rescinded ratably and the purchase price restored as to the portion of such excess payment so recovered, but without interest. For purposes of this Section, amounts owed to or recovered by the L/C Issuer in connection with Reimbursement Obligations in which Banks have been required to fund their participation shall be treated as amounts owed to or recovered by the L/C Issuer as a Bank hereunder. Without limiting the foregoing, each Bank acknowledges its obligations to share payments received from the Guarantors pursuant to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement.
Section 13.8. Notices. Except as otherwise specified herein, all notices under the Credit Documents shall be in writing (including telecopy or other electronic communication) and shall be given to a party hereunder at its address or telecopier number set forth below or such other address or telecopier number as such party may hereafter specify by notice to the Agent and the Borrower, given by courier, by United States certified or registered mail, or by other telecommunication device capable of creating a written record of such notice and its receipt.

Section 13.9. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterpart signature pages, and by the different parties on different counterparts, each of which when executed shall be deemed an original but all such counterparts taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument.
Section 13.10. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon the Borrower and its successors and assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of each of the Banks and the benefit of their respective successors and assigns, including any subsequent holder of any Note. The Borrower may not assign any of its rights or obligations under any Credit Document without the written consent of all of the Banks and with respect to any letter of credit or the Application therefor, the L/C Issuer.
Section 13.11. Participants. Each Bank shall have the right at its own cost to grant participations (to be evidenced by one or more agreements or certificates of participation) in the Loans made and Reimbursement Obligations and/or Commitments held by such Bank at any time and from time to time, to one or more other banks, insurance companies, commercial lenders and other financial institutions; provided that no such participation shall relieve any Bank of any of its obligations under this Agreement, and provided further that no such assignee or participant shall have any rights under this Agreement except as provided in this Section 13.11, and the Agent shall have no obligation or responsibility to such participant. Any party to which such a participation has been granted shall have the benefits of Section 2.4 and Section 10.3 hereof but shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under either such Section than the Bank granting such participation would have been entitled to receive with respect to the rights transferred. Any agreement pursuant to which any Bank may grant such a participating interest shall provide that such Bank shall retain the sole right and responsibility to

#####

enforce the obligations of the Borrower hereunder including, without limitation, the right to approve any amendment or modification or waiver of any provision of the Loan Documents; provided that such participation agreement may provide that such Bank will not agree to any modification, amendment or waiver of the Loan Documents that would (A) increase any Commitment of such Bank if such increase would also increase the participant’s obligations, (B) forgive any amount of or postpone the date for payment of any principal of or interest on any Loan or of any fee payable hereunder in which such participant has an interest or (C) reduce the stated rate at which interest or fees accrue or other amounts payable hereunder in which such participant has an interest. The Borrower and each Guarantor authorizes each Bank to disclose to any participant or prospective participant under this Section 13.11 any financial or other information pertaining to the Borrower or any Guarantor, subject to Section 13.20 hereof.
Section 13.12. Assignments. (a) Any Bank may at any time assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or a portion of such Bank’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it); provided that any such assignment shall be subject to the following conditions:
(i) Minimum Amounts. (A) In the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Bank’s Commitment and the Loans and participation interest in L/C Obligations at the time owing to it or in the case of an assignment to a Bank, an Affiliate of a Bank or an Approved Fund, no minimum amount need be assigned; and (B) in any case not described in subsection (a)(i)(A) of this Section, the aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for this purpose includes Loans and participation interest in L/C Obligations outstanding thereunder) or, if the applicable Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Loans and participation interest in L/C Obligations of the assigning Bank subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment is accepted and recorded by the Agent) shall not be less than $5,000,000, in the case of any assignment in respect of the Revolving Credit, unless the Agent otherwise consents (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed);
(ii) Proportionate Amounts. Each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Bank’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Loan or the Commitment assigned.
(iii) Required Consents. No consent shall be required for any assignment except to the extent required by Section 13.12(a)(i)(B) and, in addition:
(a) the consent of the Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for assignments in respect of the Revolving Credit if such assignment is to a Person that is not a Bank with a Commitment in respect of such facility, an Affiliate of such Bank or an Approved Fund with respect to such Bank; and
(b) the consent of the L/C Issuer (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for any assignment that increases the

-68-

#####

obligation of the assignee to participate in exposure under one or more Letters of Credit (whether or not then outstanding).
(iv) Assignment and Acceptance. The parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Agent an Assignment and Acceptance, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500.
(v) No Assignment to Borrower or Parent. No such assignment shall be made to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates or Subsidiaries.
(vi) No Assignment to Natural Persons. No such assignment shall be made to a natural person.
Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Agent pursuant to Section 13.12(b) hereof, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Bank under this Agreement, and the assigning Bank thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all of the assigning Bank’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Bank shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 13.6 and 13.15 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment. Any assignment or transfer by a Bank of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Bank of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with Section 13.11 hereof.
(b) Register. The Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices in Chicago, Illinois, a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Banks, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts of the Loans owing to, each Bank pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Borrower, the Agent, and the Banks may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Bank hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Bank, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.
(c) Any Bank may at any time pledge or grant a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Bank, including any such pledge or grant to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or grant of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or grant of a security interest shall release a Bank from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or secured party for such Bank as a party hereto; provided further, however, the right of any such pledgee or grantee (other than any Federal Reserve Bank) to further transfer all or any portion of the rights pledged or

-69-

#####

granted to it, whether by means of foreclosure or otherwise, shall be at all times subject to the terms of this Agreement.
(d) Assignment of Commitments under Certain Circumstances. If (a) any Bank (i) shall have delivered a notice or certificate pursuant to Section 10.3, (ii) shall become subject to the provisions of Section 10.1 or (iii) shall fail or refuse to fund its portion of any Loan or any amount with respect to any Letter of Credit for any reason other than the failure of the Borrower to satisfy the conditions precedent to the making of such Loan or issuance of such Letter of Credit hereunder, or (b) the Borrower shall be required to make additional payments to any Bank under Section 13.1 (or would be required to make such additional payments with respect to any future interest payment), the Borrower shall have the right, but not the obligation, at its own expense, upon notice to such Bank and the Agent, to replace such Bank with an assignee (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 13.12(a) hereof), and such Bank hereby agrees to transfer and assign without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 13.12(a) hereof) all of such assigning Bank’s interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to such assignee; provided, however, that (A) no such assignment shall conflict with any law or any rule, regulation or order of any governmental authority, (B) such assignee Bank shall pay to the affected Bank in immediately available funds on the date of such assignment the principal of the Loans made by such Bank hereunder and the amount of any Reimbursement Obligations funded by such Bank hereunder, (C) the Borrower must exercise its right to replace such Bank within forty-five (45) days of the event giving rise to the Borrower’s right to so replace such Bank, and (D) the Borrower shall pay to the affected Bank in immediately available funds on the date of such assignment the interest accrued to the date of payment on the Loans made by such Bank hereunder and all other amounts accrued for such Bank’s account or owed to it hereunder, together with amounts due the affected Bank under Section 2.4 hereunder as if the Loans owing to it were repaid on such date rather than assigned, and provided that any assignment fees or other expenses otherwise payable to the Agent in connection with such assignment pursuant to Section 13.12(a) shall be paid by the Borrower.
Section 13.13. Amendments. Any provision of the Credit Documents may be amended or waived if, but only if, such amendment or waiver is in writing and is signed by (a) the Borrower, (b) the Required Banks, and (c) if the rights or duties of the Agent or the L/C Issuer are affected thereby, the Agent or the L/C Issuer, as applicable; provided that:
(i) no amendment or waiver pursuant to this Section 13.13 shall (A) increase any Commitment of any Bank without the consent of such Bank or (B) forgive, or reduce the amount of, or postpone any fixed date for payment of, any principal of or interest on any Loan or of any Reimbursement Obligation or any fee payable hereunder without the consent of each Bank or (C) reduce the stated rate at which interest or any fee hereunder is calculated or (D) change the Termination Date without the consent of each Bank; and
(ii) no amendment or waiver pursuant to this Section 13.13 shall, unless signed by each Bank, change any provision of Section 7, Section 10, this Section 13.13, release any material guarantor or all or substantially all of the Collateral (except as otherwise provided for in the Credit Documents) or the definition of Required Banks, or

Section 13.14. Headings. Section headings used in this Agreement are for reference only and shall not affect the construction of this Agreement.
Section 13.15. Legal Fees, Other Costs and Indemnification. The Borrower agrees to pay all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Agent in connection with the preparation and negotiation of the Credit Documents, including without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of Chapman and Cutler, counsel to the Agent, in connection with the preparation and execution of the Credit Documents, and any amendment, waiver or consent related hereto, whether or not the transactions contemplated herein are consummated. The Borrower further agrees to indemnify each Bank, the Agent, and their respective directors, officers and employees (collectively, “Indemnified Parties”), against all losses, claims, damages, penalties, judgments, liabilities and related expenses (including, without limitation, all expenses of litigation or preparation therefor, whether or not the Indemnified Party is a party thereto) which any of them may incur or reasonably pay arising out of or relating to any Credit Document or any of the transactions contemplated thereby or the direct or indirect application or proposed application of the proceeds of any Loan or any Letter of Credit or in connection with the enforcement of by the Indemnified Parties of their rights under any Credit Document, other than those which arise from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the party claiming indemnification. The Borrower, upon demand by the Agent or a Bank at any time, shall reimburse the Agent or such Bank for any reasonable legal or other expenses incurred in connection with investigating or defending against any of the foregoing except if the same is directly due to the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the party to be indemnified.
Section 13.16. Set Off. In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under applicable law and not by way of limitation of any such rights, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default and upon the acceleration of all amounts owing hereunder, each Bank and each subsequent holder of any Note is hereby authorized by the Borrower and each Guarantor at any time or from time to time, with notice to the Borrower simultaneously therewith or promptly thereafter, but without notice, to the Guarantors or to any other Person, any such additional notice being hereby expressly waived, to set off and to appropriate and to apply any and all deposits (general or special, including, but not limited to, Indebtedness evidenced by certificates of deposit, whether matured or unmatured, but not including trust accounts, and in whatever currency denominated) and any other Indebtedness at any time held or owing by that Bank or that subsequent holder to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower or any Guarantor, whether or not matured, against and on account of the obligations and liabilities of the Borrower or any Guarantor to that Bank or that subsequent holder under the Credit Documents, including, but not limited to, all claims of any nature or description arising out of or connected with the Credit Documents, irrespective of whether or not (a) that Bank or that subsequent holder shall have made any demand hereunder or (b) the principal of or the interest on the Loans or Notes and other amounts due hereunder shall have become due and payable pursuant to Section 7 and although said obligations and liabilities, or any of them, may be contingent or unmatured.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, confidential information shall not include, and each Bank (and each employee, representative or other agent of any Bank) may disclose to any and all Persons, without limitation of any kind, the “tax treatment” and “tax structure” (in each case, within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.6011-4) of the

Withdrawal of Departing Bank
Upon the Effective Date, (1) the Banks shall make Revolving Loans under this Agreement in an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of all loans made by the Departing Bank under the Existing Agreement that are outstanding on the Effective Date (the “Departing Bank’s Loans”), the proceeds of which Revolving Loans shall be used by the Borrower to prepay in full on the Effective Date the Departing Bank’s Loans, (2) the Banks shall purchase from the Departing Banks, and the Departing Banks shall sell to the Banks, all of the Departing Bank’s participations in Swing Loans, Letters of Credit and L/C Obligations under the Existing Agreement, and (3) the Departing Bank’s commitments to extend credit to or for the account of the Borrower under the Existing Agreement shall terminate, provided that Harris N.A shall remain a party to this Agreement in its capacity as L/C Issuer.
