In addition to the foregoing, but subject to the provision of Section 4.6, Agent shall have the right to have the Collateral reappraised by a qualified company selected by Agent from time to time after the Closing Date for the purpose of re-determining the value of Eligible Accounts or Eligible Inventory and modifying Advance Rates and, as a result, re determining the Borrowing Base.

(c) The Lenders shall have no obligation to make additional Advances hereunder to the extent such additional Advances would cause the Revolver Usage to exceed the Maximum Revolver Amount or exceed the Borrowing Base.

(d) Amounts borrowed pursuant to this Section 2.1 may be repaid and, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, reborrowed at any time during the term of this Agreement.

2.2. Revolver Increase .

-29-

Permitted Discretion). Any Advance as a result of an increase to the Revolver Commitment pursuant to this Section 2.2 shall be subject to the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement.

For purposes of clarification, the Revolver Increase is a fully committed credit extension, subject to satisfaction of the terms and conditions contained in this Section 2.2 and otherwise as set forth in this Agreement.

2.3. Borrowing Procedures and Settlements. (a) Procedure for Borrowing. Each Borrowing shall be made by an irrevocable written request by an Authorized Person delivered to Agent (not later than (a) in the case of a Base Rate borrowing, 1:00 p.m. (New York time) on the proposed date of such Borrowing, and (b) in the case of a LIBOR Rate borrowing, 1:00 p.m. (New York time) at least two (2) Business Days prior to the date that is the requested Funding Date (subject to Section 2.13(b)(i) in the case of any LIBOR Rate Loan). At Agent’s election, in lieu of delivering the above-described written request, any Authorized Person may give Agent electronic notice of such request by the required time. In such circumstances, Borrower agrees that any such electronic notice will be confirmed in writing within 24 hours of the giving of such notice and the failure to provide such written confirmation shall not affect the validity of the request.

(b) Making of Loans .

• • • • (i) Promptly after receipt of a request for a Borrowing pursuant to Section 2.3(a) , Agent shall notify the Lenders, not later than 4:00 p.m. (New York time) on the Business Day immediately preceding the Funding Date applicable thereto, by telecopy, telephone, or other similar form of transmission, of the requested Borrowing. Each Lender shall make the amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the requested Borrowing available to Agent in immediately available funds, to Agent’s Account, not later than 1:00 p.m. (New York time) on the Funding Date applicable thereto. After Agent’s receipt of the proceeds of such Advances, Agent shall make the proceeds thereof available to Borrower on the applicable Funding Date by transferring immediately available funds equal to such proceeds received by Agent to Borrower’s Designated Account; provided , however , that, subject to the provisions of Section 2.3(i) , Agent shall not request any Lender to make, and no Lender shall have the obligation to make, any Advance if Agent shall have actual knowledge that (1) one or more of the applicable conditions precedent set forth in Section 3 will not be satisfied on the requested Funding Date for the applicable Borrowing unless such condition has been waived, or (2) the requested Borrowing would exceed the Availability on such Funding Date.

        (ii) Unless Agent receives notice from a Lender on or prior to the Closing Date or, with respect to any Borrowing after the Closing Date, prior to noon (New York time) on the date of such Borrowing, that such

-30-

• • • • Lender will not make available as and when required hereunder to Agent for the account of Borrower the amount of that Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Borrowing, Agent may assume that each Lender has made or will make such amount available to Agent in immediately available funds on the Funding Date and Agent may (but shall not be so required), in reliance upon such assumption, make available to Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If and to the extent any Lender shall not have made its full amount available to Agent in immediately available funds and Agent in such circumstances has made available to Borrower such amount, then such Lender shall on the Business Day following such Funding Date make such amount available to Agent, together with interest at the Defaulting Lender Rate for each day during such period. A notice submitted by Agent to any Lender with respect to amounts owing under this subsection shall be conclusive, absent manifest error. If such amount is so made available, such payment to Agent shall constitute such Lender’s Advance on the date of Borrowing for all purposes of this Agreement. If such amount is not made available to Agent on the Business Day following the Funding Date, Agent will notify Borrower of such failure to fund and, upon demand by Agent, Borrower shall pay such amount to Agent for Agent’s account, together with interest thereon for each day elapsed since the date of such Borrowing, at a rate per annum equal to the interest rate applicable at the time to the Advances composing such Borrowing. The failure of any Lender to make any Advance on any Funding Date shall not relieve any other Lender of any obligation hereunder to make an Advance on such Funding Date, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make the Advance to be made by such other Lender on any Funding Date.

        (iii) Agent shall not be obligated to transfer to a Defaulting Lender any payments made by any Credit Party to Agent for the Defaulting Lender’s benefit, and, in the absence of such transfer to the Defaulting Lender, Agent shall transfer any such payments to each other non-Defaulting Lender member of the Lender Group ratably in accordance with their Revolver Commitments (but only to the extent that such Defaulting Lender’s Advance was funded by the other members of the Lender Group) or, if so directed by Borrower and if no Event of Default had occurred and is continuing (and to the extent such Defaulting Lender’s Advance was not funded by the Lender Group), retain same to be re-advanced to Borrower as if such Defaulting Lender had made Advances to Borrower. Subject to the foregoing, Agent may hold and, in its Permitted Discretion, re-lend to Borrower for the account of such Defaulting Lender the amount of all such payments received and retained by Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender. Solely for the purposes of voting or consenting to matters with respect to the Loan Documents, such Defaulting Lender shall be deemed not to be a "Lender" and such

-31-

• • • • Lender’s Revolver Commitment shall be deemed to be zero. This Section shall remain effective with respect to such Lender until (x) the Obligations under this Agreement shall have been declared or shall have become immediately due and payable, (y) the non-Defaulting Lenders, Agent, and the Credit Parties shall have waived such Defaulting Lender’s default in writing, or (z) the Defaulting Lender makes its Pro Rata Share of the applicable Advance and pays to Agent all amounts owing by Defaulting Lender in respect thereof. The operation of this Section shall not be construed to increase or otherwise affect the Revolver Commitment of any Lender, to relieve or excuse the performance by such Defaulting Lender or any other Lender of its duties and obligations hereunder, or to relieve or excuse the performance by any Credit Party of its duties and obligations hereunder to Agent or to the Lenders other than such Defaulting Lender. Any such failure to fund by any Defaulting Lender shall constitute a material breach by such Defaulting Lender of this Agreement and shall entitle Borrower at its option, upon written notice to Agent, to arrange for a substitute Lender to assume the Revolver Commitment of such Defaulting Lender, such substitute Lender to be acceptable to Agent. In connection with the arrangement of such a substitute Lender, the Defaulting Lender shall have no right to refuse to be replaced hereunder, and agrees to execute and deliver a completed form of Assignment and Acceptance in favor of the substitute Lender (and agrees that it shall be deemed to have executed and delivered such document if it fails to do so) subject only to being repaid its share of the outstanding Obligations (other than Obligations referred to in clause (b)  of the definition thereof, but including an assumption of its Pro Rata Share of the Risk Participation Liability) without any premium or penalty of any kind whatsoever; provided , however , that any such assumption of the Revolver Commitment of such Defaulting Lender shall not be deemed to constitute a waiver of any of the Lender Groups’ or any Credit Party’s rights or remedies against any such Defaulting Lender arising out of or in relation to such failure to fund.

(c) Settlement. It is agreed that each Lender’s funded portion of the Advances is intended by the Lenders to equal, at all times, such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the outstanding Advances. Such agreement notwithstanding, Agent, and the other Lenders agree (which agreement shall not be for the benefit of or enforceable by Borrower) that in order to facilitate the administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, settlement among them as to the Advances, shall take place on a periodic basis in accordance with the following provisions:

• • • • (i) Agent shall request settlement (" Settlement ") with the Lenders on a weekly basis, or on a more frequent basis if so determined by Agent with respect to any Credit Party’s Collections received by Agent by notifying the Lenders by telecopy, telephone, or other similar form of

-32-

• • • • transmission, of such requested Settlement, no later than 2:00 p.m. (New York time) on the Business Day immediately prior to the date of such requested Settlement (the date of such requested Settlement being the " Settlement Date "). Such notice of a Settlement Date shall include a summary statement of the amount of outstanding Advances for the period since the prior Settlement Date. Subject to the terms and conditions contained herein (including Section 2.3(c)(iii) ): (y) if a Lender’s balance of the Advances exceeds such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Advances as of a Settlement Date, then Agent shall, by no later than 3:00 p.m. (New York time) on the Settlement Date, transfer in immediately available funds to a Deposit Account of such Lender (as such Lender may designate), an amount such that each such Lender shall, upon receipt of such amount, have as of the Settlement Date, its Pro Rata Share of the Advances, and (z) if a Lender’s balance of the Advances is less than such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Advances as of a Settlement Date, such Lender shall no later than 2:00 p.m. (New York time) on the Settlement Date transfer in immediately available funds to the Agent’s Account, an amount such that each such Lender shall, upon transfer of such amount, have as of the Settlement Date, its Pro Rata Share of the Advances. If any such amount is not made available to Agent by any Lender on the Settlement Date applicable thereto to the extent required by the terms hereof, Agent shall be entitled to recover for its account such amount on demand from such Lender together with interest thereon at the Defaulting Lender Rate.

        (ii) In determining whether a Lender’s balance of the Advances is less than, equal to, or greater than such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Advances as of a Settlement Date, Agent shall, as part of the relevant Settlement, apply to such balance the portion of payments actually received in good funds by Agent with respect to principal, interest, fees payable by any Credit Party and allocable to the Lenders hereunder, and proceeds of Collateral. To the extent that a net amount is owed to any such Lender after such application, such net amount shall be distributed by Agent to that Lender as part of such next Settlement.

(d) Notation. Agent shall record on its books the principal amount of the Advances owing to each Lender and the interests therein of each Lender, from time to time and such records shall, absent manifest error, conclusively be presumed to be correct and accurate. In addition, each Lender is authorized, at such Lender’s option, to note the date and amount of each payment or prepayment of principal of such Lender’s Advances in its books and records, including computer records.

(e) Lenders’ Failure to Perform. All Advances shall be made by the Lenders contemporaneously and in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares. It is understood that (i) no Lender shall be responsible for any failure by any other Lender to perform its obligation to make any Advance (or other extension of credit) hereunder, nor shall any Revolver Commitment

-33-

of any Lender be increased or decreased as a result of any failure by any other Lender to perform its obligations hereunder, and (ii) no failure by any Lender to perform its obligations hereunder shall excuse any other Lender from its obligations hereunder.

Any payment received by Agent later than 2:00 p.m. (New York time) shall be deemed to have been received on the following Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue until such following Business Day.

        (ii) Unless Agent receives notice from Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Lenders that Borrower will not make such payment in full as and when required, Agent may assume that Borrower has made (or will make) such payment in full to Agent on such date in immediately available funds and Agent may (but shall not be so required), in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to each Lender on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such Lender. If and to the extent Borrower does not make such payment in full to Agent on the date when due, each Lender severally shall repay to Agent on demand such amount distributed to such Lender, together with interest thereon at the Defaulting Lender Rate for each day from the date such amount is distributed to such Lender until the date repaid.

(b) Apportionment and Application of Payments.

Borrower hereby authorizes Agent, from time to time without prior notice to Borrower, to charge such interest and fees, all Lender Group Expenses (as and when incurred), the charges, commissions, fees, and costs provided for in Section 2.12(e) (as and when accrued or incurred), the fees and costs provided for in Section 2.11 (as and when accrued or incurred), and all other payments as and when due and payable with respect to the Obligations to Borrower’s Loan Account, which amounts thereafter shall constitute Advances hereunder and shall accrue interest at the rate then applicable to Advances hereunder. Any interest not paid when due shall be compounded by being charged to Borrower’s Loan Account and shall thereafter constitute Advances hereunder and shall accrue interest at the rate then applicable to Advances that are Base Rate Loans hereunder.

-37-

(e) Computation . All interest and fees chargeable under the Loan Documents shall be computed on the basis of a 360 day year for the actual number of days elapsed. In the event the Base Rate is changed from time to time hereafter, the rates of interest hereunder based upon the Base Rate automatically and immediately shall be increased or decreased by an amount equal to such change in the Base Rate.

(f) Intent to Limit Charges to Maximum Lawful Rate . In no event shall the interest rate or rates payable under this Agreement, plus any other amounts paid in connection herewith, exceed the highest rate permissible under any law that a court of competent jurisdiction shall, in a final determination, deem applicable. Borrower and the Lender Group, in executing and delivering this Agreement, intend legally to agree upon the rate or rates of interest and manner of payment stated within it; provided , however , that, anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, if said rate or rates of interest or manner of payment exceeds the maximum allowable under applicable law, then, ipso facto, as of the date of this Agreement, Borrower is and shall be liable only for the payment of such maximum as allowed by law, and payment received from Borrower in excess of such legal maximum, whenever received, shall be applied to reduce the principal balance of the Obligations to the extent of such excess.

2.7. Cash Management .

Within 60 days following the Closing Date with respect to Deposit Accounts in existence as of such date and within 60 days following the opening of any other Deposit Account:

(a) Each Credit Party shall establish and maintain cash management services of a type and on terms satisfactory to Agent at one or more of the banks set forth on Schedule 2.7(a) (each, a " Cash Management Bank "), and, in connection therewith, establish and maintain at such Cash Management Banks pursuant to the terms hereof (i) one or more accounts designated (either in Schedule 5.17 or pursuant to Section 2.7(e) ) as concentration accounts (the " Concentration Accounts ") and (ii) additional accounts designated (either in Schedule 5.17 or pursuant to Section 2.7(e) ) as collection accounts (the " Collection Accounts ", and together with the Concentration Accounts, the " Cash Management Accounts ").

(b) Each Credit Party shall (1) request in writing and otherwise take such reasonable steps to ensure that all of its, Account Debtors, Credit Card Processors forward payment of the amounts owed by them directly to a Cash Management Bank for deposit into a Concentration Account, (2) deposit or cause to be deposited promptly, and in any event no later than the third Business Day (unless more than $250,000 in Collections shall have been received in any Deposit Account, in which case Collections from such Deposit Account shall be forwarded on a daily basis) after the date of receipt thereof (and subject to Section 2.7(d) with respect to payments from Credit Card Processors), all such Collections from Account Debtors (including those sent directly to a Cash Management Bank) into a Concentration Account, and (3) deposit or cause to be deposited promptly, and in any event no later than the third Business Day (unless more than $250,000 in Collections shall have been received in any Deposit Account, in which case Collections from such Deposit Account shall be forwarded on a daily basis) after the date of receipt thereof, all other available Collections (including cash, checks, drafts and all

-38-

other forms of daily store receipts or other similar items of payment) received by or otherwise under its control into a Cash Management Account provided, so long as no Triggering Event shall have occurred and be continuing, Agent shall permit all funds in any Concentration Account to be forwarded, by daily sweeps, to the Designated Account. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, upon Agent’s request, Borrower shall provide Agent with copies of its regular monthly bank statements and such other information relating to the Deposit Accounts as shall reasonably be requested by Agent. For purposes of clarification, after funds are swept pursuant to any provision of this Section 2.7 to the Designated Account, they may be used by the Borrower for its general corporate purposes.

(c) With respect to each Concentration Account, each Cash Management Bank shall establish and maintain Cash Management Agreements with Agent and the applicable Credit Party, in form and substance acceptable to Agent in its Permitted Discretion. Each Cash Management Agreement shall provide, among other things, that (i) all items of payment deposited in such Concentration Account and proceeds thereof are subject to the control of Agent, (ii) the Cash Management Bank has no rights of setoff or recoupment or any other claim against the applicable Concentration Account other than for payment of its service fees and other charges directly related to the administration of such Concentration Account and for returned checks or other items of payment, and (iii) from and after the date that it receives written notification from Agent (a " Control Exercise Notice "), it immediately will forward by daily sweep all amounts in the applicable Concentration Account to the Agent’s Account or as otherwise directed by Agent to prepay the Obligations in such order as set forth in Section 2.4(b) ; provided, that any such prepayments of the Loans pursuant to this Section 2.7(c) may be reborrowed subject to Section 3.2 . Anything contained herein into the contrary notwithstanding, Agent agrees that it shall not provide a Control Exercise Notice to the Cash Management Banks except during a Triggering Event. At any time during a Triggering Event, Agent shall be free to exercise its right to issue a Control Exercise Notice. Agent shall deliver to Borrower and the applicable Credit Party a copy of any such Control Exercise Notice promptly after delivery thereof to the applicable Cash Management Bank; provided , however that a non-willful failure to so do shall not affect the validity of any such Control Exercise Notice or otherwise limit Agent’s right to send any other Control Exercise Notice. Upon the subsequent termination of such Triggering Event at such time as, for a period of forty-five (45) consecutive days, both (i) Gross Collateral Availability is equal to or greater than $10,000,000 and (ii) there shall not have occurred and be continuing any Event of Default, Agent shall withdraw such Control Exercise Notice and permit funds to be transferred as set forth in Section 2.7(b) above, including as to Credit Party access to funds in any Concentration Account (and daily sweeps thereof into any Designated Account), but subject in all events to the right of Agent to deliver a Control Exercise Notice during any subsequent Triggering Event.

(d) Each Credit Party shall use its best efforts to establish and maintain Credit Card Agreements with Agent and each Credit Card Processor. Each such Credit Card Agreement shall provide, among other things, that each such Credit Card Processor shall transfer all proceeds of credit card charges for sales by each Credit Party received by it (or other amounts payable by such Credit Card Processor) into a designated Concentration Account on a daily basis or such other periodic basis as Agent may otherwise direct. No Credit Party shall change any direction or designation set forth in the Credit Card Agreements regarding payment of charges without the prior written consent of Agent.

-39-

(e) So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrower may amend Schedules 2.7(a) and 5. 17 to add or replace a Cash Management Bank or Cash Management Account; provided , however , that in the case of any Concentration Account, (i) such prospective Cash Management Bank shall be reasonably satisfactory to Agent and Agent shall have consented in writing in advance to the opening of such Cash Management Account with the prospective Cash Management Bank (which consent shall not be required with respect to any additional Concentration Account at an existing Cash Management Bank and otherwise shall not be unreasonably withheld), and (ii) prior to the time of the opening of any Concentration Account, the applicable Credit Party and such prospective Cash Management Bank shall have executed and delivered to Agent a Cash Management Agreement. Each Credit Party shall close any of its Concentration Accounts (and establish replacement cash management accounts in accordance with the foregoing sentence) promptly and in any event within 45 days of notice from Agent (or such longer period as such Credit Party and Agent may agree) that the creditworthiness of any Cash Management Bank is no longer acceptable in Agent’s reasonable judgment, or as promptly as practicable and in any event within 60 days of notice from Agent (or such longer period as such Credit Party and Agent may agree) that the operating performance, funds transfer, or availability procedures or performance of the Cash Management Bank with respect to Concentration Accounts or Agent’s liability under any Cash Management Agreement with such Cash Management Bank is no longer acceptable in Agent’s reasonable judgment.

The Cash Management Accounts shall be cash collateral accounts, with all cash, checks and similar items of payment in such accounts securing payment of the Obligations, and in which each Credit Party hereby grants a Lien to Agent.

2.8. Crediting Payments . The receipt of any payment item by Agent (whether from transfers to Agent by the Cash Management Banks pursuant to the Cash Management Agreements or otherwise) shall not be considered a payment on account unless such payment item is a wire transfer of immediately available federal funds made to the Agent’s Account or unless and until such payment item is honored when presented for payment. Should any payment item not be honored when presented for payment, then the applicable Credit Party shall be deemed not to have made such payment and interest shall be calculated accordingly. Anything to the contrary contained herein notwithstanding, any payment item shall be deemed received by Agent only if it is received into the Agent’s Account on a Business Day on or before 2:00 p.m. (New York time). If any payment item is received into the Agent’s Account on a non-Business Day or after 2:00 p.m. (New York time) on a Business Day, it shall be deemed to have been received by Agent as of the opening of business on the immediately following Business Day.

2.9. Designated Account . Agent is authorized to make the Advances, and Issuing Lender is authorized to issue the Letters of Credit, under this Agreement based upon telephonic or other instructions received from anyone purporting to be an Authorized Person or, without instructions, if pursuant to Section 2.6(d) . Borrower agrees to establish and maintain the

-40-

Designated Account with the Designated Account Bank for the purpose of receiving the proceeds of the Advances requested by Borrower and made by Agent or the Lenders hereunder. Unless otherwise agreed by Agent and Borrower, any Advance requested by Borrower and made by Agent or the Lenders hereunder shall be made to the Designated Account.

2.10. Maintenance of Loan Account; Statements of Obligations . Agent shall maintain an account on its books in the name of Borrower (the " Loan Account ") on which Borrower will be charged with all Advances made by Agent or the Lenders to Borrower or for Borrower’s account, the Letters of Credit issued by Issuing Lender for Borrower’s account, and with all other payment Obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (except Obligations referred to in clause (b) of the definition thereof), including, accrued interest, fees and expenses, and Lender Group Expenses. In accordance with Section 2.8 , the Loan Account will be credited with all payments received by Agent from Borrower or for Borrower’s account, including all amounts received in the Agent’s Account from any Cash Management Bank. When crediting payments to the Loan Account, the Agent agrees to work with the Borrower to avoid the incurrence of any breakage fees relating to LIBOR contracts. Agent shall render statements regarding the Loan Account to Borrower, including principal, interest, fees, and including an itemization of all charges and expenses constituting Lender Group Expenses owing, and such statements, absent manifest error, shall be conclusively presumed to be correct and accurate and constitute an account stated between Borrower and the Lender Group unless, within 30 days after receipt thereof by Borrower, Borrower shall deliver to Agent written objection thereto describing the error or errors contained in any such statements.

2.11. Fees . Borrower shall pay to Agent the following fees and charges, which fees and charges shall be non-refundable when paid (irrespective of whether this Agreement is terminated thereafter) and shall be apportioned among the Lenders in accordance with the terms of letter agreements between Agent and individual Lenders:

On the first day of each month during the term of this Agreement, an unused line fee in an amount equal to 0.25% per annum times the result of (i) the Maximum Revolver Amount, less (ii) the sum of (A) the average Daily Balance of Advances that were outstanding during the immediately preceding month, plus (B) the average Daily Balance of the Letter of Credit Usage during the immediately preceding month, (such sum being the "Average Utilization").

(b) Fee Letter Fees . As and when due and payable under the terms of the Fee Letter, the fees set forth in the Fee Letter.

(c) Audit, Appraisal, and Valuation Charges. Audit, appraisal, and valuation fees and charges as follows (i) a fee of $1,000 per day, per auditor, plus out-of-pocket transportation and lodging expenses for each financial audit of Borrower performed by personnel employed by Agent, (ii) if implemented, a fee of $1,000 per day, per applicable individual, plus out-of-pocket expenses for the one-time establishment of electronic collateral reporting systems, (iii) a fee of $1,500 per day per appraiser, plus out-of-pocket expenses, for each appraisal of the Collateral, or any portion thereof, performed by personnel employed by Agent, and (iv) a fee of

-41-

$1,500 per day per appraiser, or $1,000 per day per auditor or other individual, as applicable, plus additional out-of-pocket transportation and lodging expenses, and such additional out-of-pocket non-personnel related expenses, as applicable, if Agent elects to employ the services of one or more third Persons to perform financial audits of Borrower or its Subsidiaries, to appraise the Collateral, or any portion thereof, or to assess Borrower’s or its Subsidiaries’ business valuation. The foregoing notwithstanding, from and after the Closing Date, Borrower shall not be required to pay for more than 2 financial audits and 2 inventory appraisals during any 12 consecutive month period so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, it being understood that, for any audit or appraisal conducted (or commenced) at a time when an Event of Default shall have occurred, Borrower shall pay all fees as specified above for Agent’s employees and all expenses and costs paid or incurred by Agent as specified above.

2.12. Letters of Credit .

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Issuing Lender agrees to issue letters of credit for the account of Borrower (each, an " L/C ") or to purchase participations or execute indemnities or reimbursement obligations (each such undertaking, an " L/C Undertaking ") with respect to letters of credit issued by an Underlying Issuer (as of the Closing Date, the prospective Underlying Issuer is to be Wells Fargo) for the account of Borrower. To request the issuance of an L/C or an L/C Undertaking (or the amendment, renewal, or extension of an outstanding L/C or L/C Undertaking), Borrower shall hand deliver or telecopy (or transmit by electronic communication, if arrangements for doing so have been approved by the Issuing Lender) to the Issuing Lender and Agent (reasonably in advance of the requested date of issuance, amendment, renewal, or extension) a notice requesting the issuance of an L/C or L/C Undertaking, or identifying the L/C or L/C Undertaking to be amended, renewed, or extended, specifying the date of issuance, amendment, renewal, or extension (which shall be a Business Day), the date on which such L/C or L/C Undertaking is to expire, the amount of such L/C or L/C Undertaking, the name and address of the beneficiary thereof (or the beneficiary of the Underlying Letter of Credit, as applicable), and such other information as shall be necessary to prepare, amend, renew, or extend such L/C or L/C Undertaking. If requested by the Issuing Lender, Borrower also shall be an applicant under the application with respect to any Underlying Letter of Credit that is to be the subject of an L/C Undertaking. The Issuing Lender shall have no obligation to issue a Letter of Credit if any of the following would result after giving effect to the issuance of such requested Letter of Credit:

• • • • (i) the Letter of Credit Usage would exceed the Borrowing Base less the then extant amount of outstanding Advances, or

        (ii) the Letter of Credit Usage would exceed $5,000,000, or

-42-

• • • • (iii) the Letter of Credit Usage would exceed the Maximum Revolver Amount less the then extant amount of outstanding Advances.

Borrower and the Lender Group acknowledge and agree that certain Underlying Letters of Credit may be issued to support letters of credit that already are outstanding as of the Closing Date. Each Letter of Credit (and corresponding Underlying Letter of Credit) shall be in form and substance acceptable to the Issuing Lender (in the exercise of its Permitted Discretion), including the requirement that the amounts payable thereunder must be payable in Dollars. If Issuing Lender is obligated to advance funds under a Letter of Credit, Borrower immediately shall reimburse such L/C Disbursement to Issuing Lender by paying to Agent an amount equal to such L/C Disbursement not later than 2:00 p.m., New York time, on the date that such L/C Disbursement is made, if Borrower shall have received written or telephonic notice of such L/C Disbursement prior to 1:00 p.m., New York time, on such date, or, if such notice has not been received by Borrower prior to such time on such date, then not later than 2:00 p.m., New York time, on the Business Day that Borrower receives such notice, if such notice is received prior to 1:00 p.m., New York time, on the date of receipt, and, in the absence of such reimbursement, the L/C Disbursement immediately and automatically shall be deemed to be an Advance hereunder and, thereafter, shall bear interest at the rate then applicable to Advances that are Base Rate Loans under Section 2.6 . To the extent an L/C Disbursement is deemed to be an Advance hereunder, Borrower’s obligation to reimburse such L/C Disbursement shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting Advance. Promptly following receipt by Agent of any payment from Borrower pursuant to this paragraph, Agent shall distribute such payment to the Issuing Lender or, to the extent that Lenders have made payments pursuant to Section 2.12(c) to reimburse the Issuing Lender, then to such Lenders and the Issuing Lender as their interests may appear.

(b) Promptly following receipt of a notice of L/C Disbursement pursuant to Section 2.12(a) , each Lender with a Revolver Commitment agrees to fund its Pro Rata Share of any Advance deemed made pursuant to the foregoing subsection on the same terms and conditions as if Borrower had requested such Advance and Agent shall promptly pay to Issuing Lender the amounts so received by it from the Lenders. By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment to a Letter of Credit increasing the amount thereof) and without any further action on the part of the Issuing Lender or the Lenders with Revolver Commitments, the Issuing Lender shall be deemed to have granted to each Lender with a Revolver Commitment, and each Lender with a Revolver Commitment shall be deemed to have purchased, a participation in each Letter of Credit, in an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of the Risk Participation Liability of such Letter of Credit, and each such Lender agrees to pay to Agent, for the account of the Issuing Lender, such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of any payments made by the Issuing Lender under such Letter of Credit. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Lender with a Revolver Commitment hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to Agent, for the account of the Issuing Lender, such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of each L/C Disbursement made by the Issuing Lender and not reimbursed by Borrower on the date due as provided in clause (a) of this Section, or of any reimbursement payment required to be refunded to Borrower for any reason. Each Lender with a Revolver Commitment acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to deliver to Agent, for the account of the Issuing Lender, an amount equal to its respective Pro Rata Share of each L/C Disbursement made by the Issuing Lender

-43-

pursuant to this Section 2.12(b) shall be absolute and unconditional and such remittance shall be made notwithstanding the occurrence or continuation of an Event of Default or Default or the failure to satisfy any condition set forth in Section 3 hereof. If any such Lender fails to make available to Agent the amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of each L/C Disbursement made by the Issuing Lender in respect of such Letter of Credit as provided in this Section, such Lender shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender and Agent (for the account of the Issuing Lender) shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Lender together with interest thereon at the Defaulting Lender Rate until paid in full.

(c) Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify, save, defend, and hold the Lender Group harmless from any loss, cost, expense, or liability, and reasonable attorneys fees incurred by the Lender Group arising out of or in connection with any Letter of Credit; provided , however , that Borrower shall not be obligated hereunder to indemnify for any loss, cost, expense, or liability to the extent that it is caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Issuing Lender or any other member of the Lender Group. Borrower agrees to be bound by the Underlying Issuer’s regulations and interpretations of any Underlying Letter of Credit or by Issuing Lender’s interpretations of any L/C issued by Issuing Lender to or for Borrower’s account, even though this interpretation may be different from Borrower’s own, and Borrower understands and agrees that the Lender Group shall not be liable for any error, negligence, or mistake, whether of omission or commission, in following Borrower’s instructions or those contained in the Letter of Credit or any modifications, amendments, or supplements thereto. Borrower understands that the L/C Undertakings may require Issuing Lender to indemnify the Underlying Issuer for certain costs or liabilities arising out of claims by Borrower against such Underlying Issuer. Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify, save, defend, and hold the Lender Group harmless with respect to any loss, cost, expense (including reasonable attorneys fees), or liability incurred by the Lender Group under any L/C Undertaking as a result of the Lender Group’s indemnification of any Underlying Issuer; provided , however , that Borrower shall not be obligated hereunder to indemnify for any loss, cost, expense, or liability to the extent that it is caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Issuing Lender or any other member of the Lender Group.

(d) Borrower hereby authorizes and directs any Underlying Issuer to deliver to the Issuing Lender all instruments, documents, and other writings and property received by such Underlying Issuer pursuant to such Underlying Letter of Credit and to accept and rely upon the Issuing Lender’s instructions with respect to all matters arising in connection with such Underlying Letter of Credit and the related application.

(e) Any and all charges, commissions, fees, and costs incurred by the Issuing Lender relating to Underlying Letters of Credit shall be Lender Group Expenses for purposes of this Agreement and immediately shall be reimbursable by Borrower to Agent for the account of the Issuing Lender; it being acknowledged and agreed by Borrower that the Underlying Issuer may impose a schedule of charges for amendments, extensions, drawings, and renewals.

-44-

(f) If by reason of (i) any change after the Closing Date in any applicable law, treaty, rule, or regulation or any change in the interpretation or application thereof by any Governmental Authority, or (ii) compliance by the Underlying Issuer or the Lender Group with any direction, request, or requirement (irrespective of whether having the force of law) of any Governmental Authority or monetary authority including, Regulation D of the Federal Reserve Board as from time to time in effect (and any successor thereto):

• • • • (i) any reserve, deposit, or similar requirement is or shall be imposed or modified in respect of any Letter of Credit issued hereunder, or

        (ii) there shall be imposed on the Underlying Issuer or the Lender Group any other condition regarding any Underlying Letter of Credit or any Letter of Credit issued pursuant hereto,

and the result of the foregoing is to increase, directly or indirectly, the cost to the Lender Group of issuing, making, guaranteeing, or maintaining any Letter of Credit or to reduce the amount receivable in respect thereof by the Lender Group, (except (x) costs relating to payments on account of Taxes and additional amounts that are required to be paid pursuant to, or explicitly excluded from the terms of Section 16.11 and (y) costs or reductions in amounts receivable as a result of a change of general applicability in (1) taxes imposed on or measured by a Lender’s net income or (2) franchise taxes imposed on a Lender, in lieu of net income taxes, by the jurisdiction, or any political subdivision thereof, under the laws of which it is organized or otherwise resides for tax purposes or maintains a lending office), then, and in any such case, Agent may, at any time within a reasonable period after the additional cost is incurred or the amount received is reduced, notify Borrower, and Borrower shall pay on demand such amounts as Agent may specify to be necessary to compensate the Lender Group for such additional cost or reduced receipt, together with interest on such amount from the date of such demand until payment in full thereof at the rate then applicable to Base Rate Loans hereunder. The determination by Agent of any amount due pursuant to this Section, as set forth in a certificate setting forth the calculation thereof in reasonable detail, shall, in the absence of manifest or demonstrable error, be final and conclusive and binding on all of the parties hereto.

(g) Borrower acknowledges and agrees that certain of the Qualified Import Letters of Credit may provide for the presentation of time drafts to the Underlying Issuer. If an Underlying Issuer accepts such a time draft that is presented under an Underlying Letter of Credit, it is acknowledged and agreed that (i) the Letter of Credit will require the Issuing Lender to reimburse the Underlying Issuer for amounts paid on account of such time draft on or after the maturity date thereof, (ii) the pricing provisions hereof (including Sections 2.6(b) and 2.12(e) ) shall continue to apply, until payment of such time draft on or after the maturity date thereof, as if the Underlying Letter of Credit were still outstanding, and (iii) on the date on which Issuing Lender makes payment to the Underlying Issuer of the amounts paid on account of such time draft, Borrower immediately shall reimburse such amount to Issuing Lender and such amount shall constitute an L/C Disbursement hereunder.

-45-

2.13. LIBOR Option .

(a) Interest and Interest Payment Dates. In lieu of having interest charged at the rate based upon the Base Rate, Borrower shall have the option (the " LIBOR Option ") to have interest on all or a portion of the Advances be charged at a rate of interest based upon the LIBOR Rate. Interest on LIBOR Rate Loans shall be payable on the earliest of (i) the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the date that is one month after the commencement of the applicable Interest Period, (iii) the occurrence of an Event of Default in consequence of which the Required Lenders or Agent on behalf thereof elect to accelerate the maturity of all or any portion of the Obligations, or (iv) termination of this Agreement pursuant to the terms hereof. On the last day of each applicable Interest Period in respect of a LIBOR Rate Loan, unless Borrower properly has exercised the LIBOR Option with respect thereto, the interest rate applicable to such LIBOR Rate Loan automatically shall convert to the rate of interest then applicable to Base Rate Loans of the same type hereunder. At any time that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrower no longer shall have the option to request that Advances bear interest at the LIBOR Rate and Agent shall have the right to convert the interest rate on all outstanding LIBOR Rate Loans to the rate then applicable to Base Rate Loans hereunder.

(b) LIBOR Election.

• • • • (i) Borrower may, at any time and from time to time, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, elect to exercise the LIBOR Option by notifying Agent prior to 2:00 p.m. (New York time) at least 2 Business Days prior to the commencement of the proposed Interest Period (the " LIBOR Deadline "). Notice of Borrower’s election of the LIBOR Option for a permitted portion of the Advances and an Interest Period pursuant to this Section shall be made by delivery to Agent of a LIBOR Not
