Certain capitalized terms used in this Agreement are defined in the attached Appendix A. WHEREAS, LESCO is in the business of manufacturing and selling products through Service Centers(R), Stores-On-Wheels(R), direct distribution, telephone, e-commerce and by other means; WHEREAS, prior to the date hereof, LESCO extended credit to its commercial customers to allow such customers to finance purchases of LESCO's products and LESCO administered and collected the resulting accounts receivable; WHEREAS, among other things, Bank establishes programs to extend and service customized credit programs to qualified commercial customers for the purchase of products from various manufacturers and merchants; WHEREAS, concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, LESCO and Bank have executed the Purchase Agreement for the purpose of transferring LESCO's interest in the Existing Accounts to Bank and incorporating such Existing Accounts into the Program as set forth herein; WHEREAS, the parties hereto desire to enter into this Agreement pursuant to which Bank will, (i) extend credit with respect to and administer the Existing Accounts and Indebtedness under either the Open Account Program or the BRC Program, and (ii) make available the Open Account Program and the BRC Program to qualified commercial customers of LESCO after the Program Commencement Date; In consideration of the following terms and conditions, and for good and valuable consideration the receipt and sufficiency of which is acknowledged, LESCO and Bank agree as follows: ARTICLE 1 ESTABLISHMENT AND SCOPE OF THE PROGRAM SECTION 1.1 ESTABLISHMENT OF THE PROGRAM. (a) Bank and LESCO are entering into this Agreement to establish a private-label business credit program, which will include both the Open Account Program and the BRC Program and which will be made available to qualified commercial customers of LESCO for the financing of purchases of products and services from LESCO, all in accordance with the terms of this Agreement (collectively, the "Program"). -1- (b) LESCO acknowledges and agrees that it shall be a material condition precedent to Bank's obligations to perform hereunder that, and the Program Commencement Date shall not be deemed to occur until, Bank and LESCO shall have consummated the purchase and sale of the Existing Accounts pursuant to the Purchase Agreement; provided, that the provisions of Appendix B which by their terms are to commence on the Effective Date shall be effective as of such date. SECTION 1.2 SCOPE OF THE PROGRAM. (a) During the Term, LESCO will accept Account applications and forward such applications or the information contained therein to Bank in accordance with the Operating Procedures and accept Credit Cards and Accounts in accordance with the Operating Procedures and Bank will extend credit directly to Accountholders under the Program pursuant to the Prox Terms, the Net Invoice Terms, or the BRC Terms, as the case may be, with respect to purchases of LESCO's products and services at all Store Locations, as well as in connection with Telephone Purchases. LESCO acknowledges and agrees that (i) Accountholders may only participate in either the Open Account Program (and, within such program, on either the Prox Terms or the Net Invoice Terms, but not both) or the BRC Program, but not both, and (ii) the terms and conditions set forth herein pertaining to Net Invoice Accounts (including, without limitation, Net Invoice Fees, Net Invoice Fee Percentages, and Net Invoice Terms) and any obligation of Bank to extend credit in respect thereof shall not be effective unless and until the parties agree in writing to effectuate such provisions and, as part thereof, establish the pricing and Net Invoice Terms that will apply thereto. (b) Bank acknowledges that it is the intention of LESCO to actively pursue the sales of its products through the Internet and the parties agree to negotiate in good faith mutually acceptable terms and conditions under which such functionality may be made available after the Program Commencement Date to Accountholders under the Program. (c) The Program is intended to be used by Accountholders for purchases made primarily for commercial and business purposes and Bank does not intend to extend credit under the Program for purchases made primarily for personal, family or household use. LESCO acknowledges that Bank's obligation to continue to extend credit under the Program is contingent on LESCO continuing to sell the type of goods and services generally similar to those sold by LESCO as of the Program Commencement Date. SECTION 1.3 INTERIM TRANSITION PERIOD. The parties acknowledge and agree that during the period from the Closing Date (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) until the completion of Bank's transfer of the Purchased Accounts onto Bank's systems (the "Interim Transition Period"), certain of the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall be modified as and to the extent specifically set forth below. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing and anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, during the Interim Transition Period the following terms and conditions shall apply: (a) Bank shall designate for each Existing Account and for each Account originated during the Interim Transition Period whether such Account shall be a Prox Account, a Net Invoice Account, or a BRC Account; provided, that such designation notwithstanding, until -2- the expiration of the Interim Transition Period, Bank shall extend commercial credit with respect to all Accounts pursuant to the LESCO Terms, as the same shall exist as of the Program Commencement Date. (b) Bank shall not distribute standard Program materials (including as contemplated by Section 2.1(c) and (d)) until the expiration of the Interim Transition Period; provided, that Bank will distribute credit applications reflecting the LESCO terms during the Interim Transition Period. LESCO shall prepare and mail periodic billing statements on behalf of Bank during the Interim Transition Period. (c) Except to the extent otherwise directed by Bank, LESCO shall process purchases and otherwise continue to conduct its point-of-sale practices in respect of purchases from Store Locations and in connection with Telephone Purchases in the ordinary course as such processing and practices existed immediately prior to the Program Commencement Date. (d) LESCO will transmit each day to Bank the aggregate Charge Transaction Data for such day in accordance with instructions provided by Bank. Without limiting the foregoing, the form of such submission shall be as set forth in Exhibits A-1, A-2, and A-3. Except for the foregoing, the terms and conditions of Sections 3.1(a) and (b) shall otherwise apply during the Interim Transition Period. (e) The terms and conditions set forth in Appendix B shall apply during the Interim Transition Period. (f) Unless otherwise modified above, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall apply as set forth herein. SECTION 1.4 RECOURSE ACCOUNTS. (a) It is the intention of the parties that the Program be available to provide financing to those LESCO commercial customers qualifying for the Program for the purchase of goods and services from LESCO. The foregoing notwithstanding, LESCO acknowledges and agrees that Bank shall have sole discretion over the establishment and application of the credit criteria used to approve or decline prospective Accountholders and that such credit criteria will be the primary basis upon which Bank will determine whether the credit applications of prospective Accountholders will be approved or declined. In any case in which Bank has declined an application for an Account, but the applicant meets the following criteria: (b) such applicant is a commercial entity in good standing in the state of its organization (or if such applicant is an individual, such person must be a minimum of 18 years of age at the time of application), (c) such applicant is applying for credit with respect to operations located in (or, in the case of an individual, is a resident of) the United States, and (d) such applicant is applying for credit as a commercial entity and is not seeking financing for personal, family or household purposes, then LESCO may request that Bank approve such declined application and include the resulting Account (each a "Recourse - 3 - Account") in a portfolio of credit recourse Accounts (collectively the "Recourse Portfolio") subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein. "Recourse Accounts" shall also include Existing Accounts designated as "Recourse Accounts" in accordance with the procedures therefore in the Purchase Agreement. Although it is the intention of the parties that the provisions of this Section 1.4 shall provide a mechanism though which a greater number of potential customers of LESCO will be able to participate in the Program, the decision to include any particular applicant presented by LESCO as a possible Recourse Account shall be in Bank's sole discretion. LESCO acknowledges and agrees that (A) Bank may, in its discretion, limit the Aggregate Outstanding Indebtedness attributable to the Recourse Portfolio to the lesser of (x) ten percent (10%) of the Aggregate Outstanding Indebtedness attributable to all Accounts, and (y) an amount of Aggregate Outstanding Indebtedness with respect to all Recourse Accounts which, based on Bank's projections, would not result in more than One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) in payments by LESCO to Bank in respect of its recourse obligations under this Section 1.4 for the immediately succeeding twelve (12) months, and (B) Recourse Accounts may only be Prox Accounts. (e) LESCO acknowledges that the applications resulting in Recourse Accounts do not meet Bank's standard credit criteria and but for LESCO's promises and obligations under this Section 1.4, Bank would not have agreed to approve such applicants for an Account. LESCO shall purchase any Recourse Account after receipt of notice from Bank that such Recourse Account is more than one hundred and fifty (150) days delinquent. The purchase price for any such Recourse Account shall be equal to 100% of the outstanding balance at the time of purchase. Bank may set-off against funds due LESCO hereunder amounts due from LESCO in respect of such Recourse Account purchase; provided, that if insufficient funds exist to complete any such set-off, LESCO shall pay Bank such amount within ten (10) days of Bank's invoice. Additionally, if upon expiration or termination of the Term LESCO elects to purchase the Accounts pursuant to Section 10.1, the Recourse Accounts shall be purchased on the same terms and conditions as all other Accounts; provided, however, if LESCO does not purchase the Accounts pursuant to Section 10.1, LESCO shall nonetheless purchase all Recourse Accounts for a purchase price equal to 100% of the then outstanding Indebtedness attributable to such Accounts. Such purchase shall be without recourse to or warranty from Bank and the parties shall complete such purchase within sixty days after the expiration or earlier termination of the Term. Beginning with the first full month after the expiration of the Interim Transition Period, Bank shall provide LESCO at the end of each month a report setting forth the delinquency status of all Recourse Accounts in the Recourse Portfolio ("Delinquency Report"). The Delinquency Report shall include the number and the outstanding balance of the Recourse Accounts in the Recourse Portfolio that are current and at each delinquency level. (f) Each Existing Account designated as a "Recourse Account" pursuant to clause (ii) of the "Recourse Accounts" definition contained in the Purchase Agreement shall only constitute a Recourse Account under this Agreement until Bank receives payment in full of the Indebtedness owing under such Account as of the Closing Date (as defined in the Purchase Agreement). - 4 - ARTICLE 2 RESPONSIBILITIES UNDER THE PROGRAM SECTION 2.1 BANK'S RESPONSIBILITIES.

If LESCO elects to establish such a program, (i) the terms and conditions of the Cardholder Loyalty Program and any modifications thereto shall be subject to Bank's reasonable consent, (ii) the Cardholder Loyalty Program shall be in addition to and provide superior benefits in comparison with any multi-tender or other loyalty program offered by LESCO, (iii) in addition to any other amounts spent by LESCO under Section 5.1(a) or 5.3 to promote or support the Program, LESCO shall expend such commercially reasonable amounts as are deemed necessary or appropriate by the parties to support the Cardholder Loyalty Program and to promote it to Accountholders and customers, (iv) to the extent consistent with the marketing plan then in effect, LESCO may seek reimbursement from the Marketing Fund for the costs associated with - 12 - in-store promotion of the Cardholder Loyalty Program; provided however, that the cost of customer rewards and incentives, merchandise discounts, mailing costs and any third party servicing or transaction fees or costs relating to the Cardholder Loyalty Program shall be paid by LESCO and shall not be subject to reimbursement from the Marketing Fund. (f) LESCO will not seek or obtain any special agreement or condition from, nor discriminate in any way against, Accountholders or any person with respect to the terms of any Account transaction. LESCO will not charge any credit surcharge, application, processing or other Program related fee to Accountholders. ARTICLE 6 OTHER AGREEMENTS SECTION 6.1 OWNERSHIP OF ACCOUNTS. (a) Bank is and will be the sole and exclusive owner of all Accounts and Account Documentation, and will be entitled to receive all payments made by Accountholders on Accounts. Bank shall be identified as the creditor and owner of the Accounts for all purposes, and LESCO shall not represent or imply otherwise. LESCO acknowledges that it has no right, title or interest in any Accounts or Account Documentation and will not, at any time, have any right to any proceeds or payments made under the Accounts unless LESCO subsequently purchases or otherwise acquires such Accounts from Bank. LESCO further acknowledges that neither the Accountholder Information nor any of the Account Documentation nor any of the information included in the Account Documentation will be deemed to be Confidential Information of LESCO for purposes of Section 13.1 hereof (provided, that the foregoing shall not limit or derogate from the restrictions on use of the Accountholder List or the information contained therein provided for in Section 13(b)(ii)). LESCO authorizes and empowers Bank to sign and endorse LESCO's name upon any checks, drafts, money orders or other forms of payment in respect of any Account that may have been issued by the Accountholder in LESCO's name. This limited power of attorney conferred in this Section 6.1 is deemed a power coupled with an interest and will be irrevocable prior to the Final Liquidation Date. (b) Except with respect to Recourse Accounts, Bank will bear all credit losses on Accounts (other than as permitted by Bank's chargeback rights in Article 7 and other than credit losses incurred after the Accounts are purchased or otherwise acquired by LESCO or a third party pursuant to Section 10.1). SECTION 6.2 OWNERSHIP AND USE OF ACCOUNTHOLDER INFORMATION. Bank is the sole and exclusive owner of all lists of Accountholders and applicants generated by the Program (including, without limitation, names, addresses, telephone numbers, e-mail addresses, dates of birth, tax, organization, social security and similar numbers, and account and similar access numbers), (the "Accountholder Information"). Nothing herein shall limit LESCO's rights in or use of any customer list of LESCO to the extent the information therein is generated by LESCO independently of the Program. Further, Bank's ownership of the Accountholder Information notwithstanding, LESCO may use the Accountholder Information during the Term to promote the Program and to promote the products and services sold by LESCO under the Program. Without limiting the solicitation restrictions set forth in Section 4.2, during the Term, Bank may use the Accountholder Information to exercise its rights and fulfill its obligations under this - 13 - Agreement and with respect to the administration and liquidation (including sale) of Accounts after the expiration or earlier termination of the Term. SECTION 6.3 ACCOUNTHOLDER TERMS. Bank may establish and modify the ordinary finance charge rates (if applicable) to credit extended to Accountholders. Bank may also establish (and modify from time to time) all other terms upon which credit will be extended to Accountholders, including without limitation, repayment terms, default finance charges, late fees, overlimit charges, returned check charges, and other ordinary fees and charges. Subject to the foregoing, the initial Prox Terms, Net Invoice Terms and BRC Terms to be offered to Accountholders under the Open Account Program and the BRC Program, respectively, are set forth in Schedule 6.3 hereto and are made a part hereof. Unless a shorter notice period is required to avoid violation by Bank of applicable law, rule, regulation or order, Bank shall notify and consult with LESCO at least sixty (60) days prior to amending or modifying the finance charge rates and fees set forth on Schedule 6.3. SECTION 6.4 CREDIT CRITERIA. Bank shall establish in its discretion and may modify from time to time any or all of the credit criteria used in evaluating applicants under the Program (including, without limitation, the creditworthiness of individual applicants, the range of credit limits to be made available to individual Accountholders and whether to suspend or terminate the credit privileges of any Accountholder). Bank will consult with LESCO regarding any changes to the credit criteria used for the Program which, in Bank's reasonable opinion, could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse affect on the Program. SECTION 6.5 OPERATING PROCEDURES. Except for changes (a) necessary to the prevention or mitigation of fraud, (b) required by applicable law, or (c) which Bank reasonably determines are necessary or appropriate to comply with (or avoid violation of) applicable regulatory authority, Bank shall not materially amend any "key terms" of the Operating Procedures without the prior written consent of LESCO, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. As used in the preceding sentence, "key terms" means those terms and conditions of the Operating Procedures the amendment of which is reasonably likely to result in a materially adverse alteration of the methods and procedures through which LESCO participates in the Program, relative to the Operating Procedures attached hereto as of the Program Commencement Date. SECTION 6.6 CREDIT REVIEW POINT; PROGRAM CREDIT MINIMUMS. (a) Bank will not be obligated to make any extension of credit under the Program if, after such extension, the aggregate Indebtedness for (i) all BRC Accounts, or (ii) for all Prox Accounts plus all Net Invoice Accounts, would exceed, in the case of the BRC Accounts, the BRC Credit Review Point or, in the case of Prox Accounts and Net Invoice Accounts, the Open Account Credit Review Point. Bank shall also have no obligation to extend further credit under the Program at any time after the occurrence of any event that would allow Bank to give notice of termination hereunder. (b) If at any time, the aggregate Indebtedness with respect to (x) all BRC Accounts equals or exceeds eighty percent (80%) of the BRC Credit Review Point then in effect, or (y) all Prox Accounts plus all Net Invoice Accounts equals or exceeds eighty percent (80%) of - 14 - the Open Account Credit Review Point then in effect, then within ninety (90) days after either of the foregoing events, Bank will select one of the following options and give LESCO written notice of its selection: (c) Bank may increase the BRC Credit Review Point or the Open Account Credit Review Point, as the case may be, to an amount that will accommodate the then outstanding Indebtedness under the Open Account Program or the BRC Program, and anticipated growth in either such pool of Indebtedness (as applicable), based on Bank's good faith projections. If Bank selects this option, then Bank's written notice to LESCO will include the amount of the increased Credit Review Point. (d) Bank may elect not to increase the BRC Credit Review Point or the Open Account Credit Review Point, as the case may be, in which case, LESCO will be entitled to terminate this Agreement in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.2(i). SECTION 6.7 LESCO FINANCIAL REPORTS; FINANCIAL COVENANTS. (a) If at any time during the term of this Agreement LESCO is not obligated to, or for any other reason does not, file periodic financial reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, LESCO will: (b) As soon as practicable but in any event not more than one hundred and twenty (120) days after the end of each fiscal year, deliver to Bank its audited annual financial statements, including its audited consolidated balance sheet, income statement and statement of cash flows and financial position, and including an unqualified opinion from a nationally recognized accounting firm reasonably acceptable to Bank. (c) As soon as practicable but in any event not more than sixty (60) days after the end of each fiscal quarter of LESCO, deliver to Bank its unaudited quarterly financial statements, including its unaudited consolidated balance sheet, income statement and statement of cash flows and financial position, accompanied by a certificate from LESCO's chief financial officer that such financial statements were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principals applied on a consistent basis and present fairly the consolidated financial position of LESCO as of the end of such fiscal quarter and the results of its operations, subject to normal year end audit adjustments. (d) LESCO will deliver to Bank copies of all compliance certificates delivered to its lenders under its credit facilities, if any. (e) LESCO will satisfy the financial covenant set forth on Schedule 6.7(c). Within fifteen (15) days after the end of each fiscal quarter of LESCO, LESCO will deliver to Bank a written certification by the chief financial officer of LESCO certifying that LESCO is in compliance with the financial covenant set forth in Schedule 6.7(c) or, if not, providing a reasonably detailed explanation as to the reasons for and the status of LESCO's non-compliance. Each such certificate shall set forth in a manner reasonably acceptable to Bank the calculation of such compliance. - 15 - (f) Concurrently with the delivery of the certificate referred to in Section 6.7(c), LESCO shall deliver a certificate signed by the chief financial officer of LESCO, to the effect that, to the best of his or her knowledge, LESCO is in compliance in all material respects with all applicable environmental laws and OSHA. To the extent LESCO is not in material compliance with the foregoing laws, the certificate shall set forth with specificity all areas of such non-compliance and the proposed action LESCO will implement in order to achieve material compliance. For purposes of this Section 6.7(d), LESCO shall not be deemed to be out of compliance with applicable environmental laws and OSHA if the aggregate liability to LESCO resulting from such non-compliance for any fiscal quarter of LESCO (taking into account all violations incurred during such quarter or remaining outstanding from prior quarters) is less than or equal to One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000). SECTION 6.8 ACCESS. LESCO will permit Bank's representatives to visit Store Locations during normal business hours with reasonable advance notice. LESCO will also permit Bank to review and obtain copies of all of the books and records of LESCO relating to the Program and authorizes Bank to monitor the administration and promotion of the Program through mystery shopping and by other reasonable means. SECTION 6.9 INSERTS AND BILLING MESSAGES. (a) Beginning as of the expiration of the Interim Transition Period, for each billing statement sent to Accountholders during a billing cycle during the Term, Bank will make available to LESCO a space for one (1) customized message on the billing statement and Bank will include as many LESCO inserts into each billing statement as possible (but in no event more than eight (8) in the case of BRC Accounts and ten (10) in the case of Prox Accounts) without causing the weight of the billing statement package to exceed one ounce; provided that if Bank is required by law to send a notice in such month then such notice shall take priority, and; provided further, that if LESCO wishes Bank to include LESCO's inserts in any billing statements in which the inclusion of such inserts will cause the postage on such billing statements to exceed one ounce, then LESCO will provide at least five (5) days prior notice to Bank to enable Bank to adjust its process and LESCO will pay the overweight postage charges resulting therefrom. The foregoing notwithstanding, Bank is not required to include any LESCO statement messages or billing inserts unless Bank receives such statement messages or copies of the billing inserts at least fifteen (15) days prior to the calendar month for the scheduled mailing date. LESCO will provide copies of all billing inserts to Bank at its own cost. (b) The form of customized messages and all billing inserts will comply with Bank's specifications as provided to LESCO from time to time, and Bank shall have the right to reject any message or billing statement that Bank reasonably believes is detrimental to the image of the Bank or the Program. In addition, any Bank billing inserts or statement messages that Bank reasonably believes are required by law or to protect Bank's interest in the Accounts will take priority over LESCO's billing inserts or statement messages. For the avoidance of doubt, only billing inserts and statement messages regarding the Program, or goods and services available for purchase from LESCO under the Program, shall qualify for inclusion in Accountholder billing statements. - 16 - SECTION 6.10 EXTENDED WARRANTIES. LESCO will not be permitted to finance on Accounts extended warranties or service contracts without the prior written approval of Bank. With respect to either of the foregoing, if LESCO seeks Bank's consent to finance such products under the Program, LESCO agrees to review with Bank its offering of and procedures concerning the sale and fulfillment of such products. LESCO understands that any third party insurer of any extended warranty program proposed by LESCO shall be subject to financial review by Bank and must otherwise be reasonably acceptable to Bank. Even where approved by Bank, LESCO shall be responsible for ensuring that any extended warranties or service contracts fully comply with all applicable laws. Nothing in this Section 6.10 shall restrict LESCO from selling products subject to normal manufacturer's warranties included in the standard purchase price as long as no additional seller's warranties are provided. SECTION 6.11 THIRD PARTY PARTICIPATION. As of the date of this Agreement, LESCO represents and warrants that no affiliate of LESCO is engaged in the business of selling goods or services to commercial customers other than those affiliates signatory hereto, or those
