Related to Borrower Procedures for Making Swing Line and Revolving Credit Advances

• Disbursement of Revolving Credit and Swingline Loans Not later than 2:00 p.m. on the proposed borrowing date, (i) each Revolving Credit Lender will make available to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Borrower, at the office of the Administrative Agent in funds immediately available to the Administrative Agent, such Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of the Revolving Credit Loans to be made on such borrowing date and (ii) the Swingline Lender will make available to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Borrower, at the office of the Administrative Agent in funds immediately available to the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Loans to be made on such borrowing date. The Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent to disburse the proceeds of each borrowing requested pursuant to this Section in immediately available funds by crediting or wiring such proceeds to the deposit account of the Borrower identified in the most recent notice substantially in the form attached as Exhibit C (a “Notice of Account Designation”) delivered by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent or as may be otherwise agreed upon by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent from time to time. Subject to Section 5.7 hereof, the Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to disburse the portion of the proceeds of any Revolving Credit Loan requested pursuant to this Section to the extent that any Revolving Credit Lender has not made available to the Administrative Agent its Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of such Loan. Revolving Credit Loans to be made for the purpose of refunding Swingline Loans shall be made by the Revolving Credit Lenders as provided in Section 2.2(b).

• Repayment of Revolving Credit Advances The Borrower shall repay to the Agent for the ratable account of the Lenders on the Revolver Termination Date the aggregate principal amount of the Revolving Credit Advances then outstanding.

• Making the Revolving Credit Advances (a) Each Borrowing shall be made on notice, given not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the third Business Day prior to the date of the proposed Borrowing in the case of a Borrowing consisting of Eurodollar Rate Advances, or 10:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the Business Day of the proposed Borrowing in the case of a Borrowing consisting of Base Rate Advances, by the Borrower to the Agent, which shall give to each Lender prompt notice thereof by telecopier or telex. Each such notice of a Borrowing (a “Notice of Borrowing”) shall be by telephone, confirmed immediately in writing signed by a Financial Officer in substantially the form of Exhibit B hereto, specifying therein the requested (i) date of such Borrowing, (ii) Type of Revolving Credit Advances comprising such Borrowing, (iii) aggregate amount of such Borrowing, (iv) in the case of a Borrowing consisting of Eurodollar Rate Advances, initial Interest Period for each such Revolving Credit Advance and (v) wire transfer instructions. Each Lender shall, before 12:00 noon (New York City time) on the date of such Borrowing, make available for the account of its Applicable Lending Office to the Agent at the Agent’s Account, in same day funds, such Lender’s ratable portion of such Borrowing. After the Agent’s receipt of such funds and upon fulfillment of the applicable conditions set forth in Article III, the Agent will make such funds available to the Borrower as specified in the Notice of Borrowing. (b) Anything in subsection (a) above to the contrary notwithstanding, (i) the Borrower may not select Eurodollar Rate Advances for any Borrowing if the aggregate amount of such Borrowing is less than $5,000,000 or if the obligation of the Lenders to make Eurodollar Rate Advances shall then be suspended pursuant to Section 2.07 or 2.11(a) and (ii) at no time shall the aggregate number of all Borrowings comprising Eurodollar Rate Advances outstanding hereunder be greater than ten. (c) Each Notice of Borrowing shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower. In the case of any Borrowing that the related Notice of Borrowing specifies is to be comprised of Eurodollar Rate Advances, the Borrower shall indemnify each Lender against any loss, cost or expense incurred by such Lender as a result of any failure to fulfill on or before the date specified in such Notice of Borrowing for such Borrowing the applicable conditions set forth in Article III, including, without limitation, any loss (excluding loss of anticipated profits), cost or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender to fund the Revolving Credit Advance to be made by such Lender as part of such Borrowing when such Revolving Credit Advance, as a result of such failure, is not made on such date. (d) Unless the Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the time of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Agent such Lender’s ratable portion of such Borrowing, the Agent may assume that such Lender has made such portion available to the Agent on the date of such Borrowing in accordance with subsection (a) of this Section 2.02 and the Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If and to the extent that such Lender shall not have so made such ratable portion available to the Agent, such Lender and the Borrower severally agree to repay to the Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to the Borrower until the date such amount is repaid to the Agent, at (i) in the case of the Borrower, the interest rate applicable at the time to Revolving Credit Advances comprising such Borrowing and (ii) in the case of such Lender, the Federal Funds Rate. If such Lender shall repay to the Agent such corresponding amount, such amount so repaid shall constitute such Lender’s Revolving Credit Advance as part of such Borrowing for purposes of this Agreement. (e) The failure of any Lender to make the Revolving Credit Advance to be made by it as part of any Borrowing shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation, if any, hereunder to make its Revolving Credit Advance on the date of such Borrowing, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make the Revolving Credit Advance to be made by such other Lender on the date of any Borrowing.

• The Revolving Credit Advances Each Lender severally agrees, on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, to make Revolving Credit Advances to any Borrower from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Effective Date until the Termination Date in an aggregate amount (based in respect of any Revolving Credit Advance denominated in a Major Currency on the Equivalent in Dollars determined on the date of delivery of the applicable Notice of Revolving Credit Borrowing), not to exceed at any time outstanding such Lender's Commitment, provided that the aggregate amount of the Commitments of the Lenders shall be deemed used from time to time to the extent of the aggregate amount (based in respect of any Competitive Bid Advance denominated in a Foreign Currency on the Equivalent in Dollars at such time) of the Competitive Bid Advances then outstanding and such deemed use of the aggregate amount of the Commitments shall be allocated among the Lenders ratably according to their respective Commitments (such deemed use of the aggregate amount of the Commitments being a "Competitive Bid Reduction"). Each Revolving Credit Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount not less than $10,000,000 (or the Equivalent thereof in any Major Currency determined on the date of delivery of the applicable Notice of Revolving Credit Borrowing) or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 (or the Equivalent thereof in any Major Currency determined on the date of delivery of the applicable Notice of Revolving Credit Borrowing) in excess thereof and shall consist of Revolving Credit Advances of the same Type made on the same day by the Lenders ratably according to their respective Commitments; provided, however, that if there is no unused portion of the Commitment of one or more Lenders at the time of any requested Revolving Credit Borrowing such Borrowing shall consist of Revolving Credit Advances of the same Type made on the same day by the Lender or Lenders who do then have an unused portion of their Commitments ratably according to the unused portion of such Commitments. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Revolving Credit Borrowing may be made in a Major Currency if, after giving effect to the making of such Revolving Credit Borrowing, the Equivalent in Dollars of the aggregate amount of outstanding Revolving Credit Advances denominated in Major Currencies, together with the Equivalent in Dollars of the aggregate amount of outstanding Competitive Bid Advances denominated in Foreign Currencies, would exceed $500,000,000. Within the limits of each Lender's Commitment, any Borrower may borrow under this Section 2.01, prepay pursuant to Section 2.09 and reborrow under this Section 2.01.

• Requests for Revolving Credit Loans Except with respect to the initial Revolving Credit Loan on the Closing Date, the Borrower shall give to the Agent written notice executed by an Authorized Officer in the form of Exhibit H hereto (or telephonic notice confirmed in writing in the form of Exhibit H hereto) of each Revolving Credit Loan requested hereunder (a “Loan Request”) by noon (Cleveland time) one (1) Business Day prior to the proposed Drawdown Date with respect to Base Rate Loans and two (2) Business Days prior to the proposed Drawdown Date with respect to LIBOR Rate Loans. Each such notice shall specify with respect to the requested Revolving Credit Loan the proposed principal amount of such Revolving Credit Loan, the Type of Revolving Credit Loan, the initial Interest Period (if applicable) for such Revolving Credit Loan and the Drawdown Date. Each such notice shall also contain (i) a general statement as to the purpose for which such advance shall be used (which purpose shall be in accordance with the terms of §2.9) and (ii) a certification by the chief executive officer, president, chief financial officer or chief accounting officer of the Borrower that the Borrower and Guarantors are and will be in compliance with all covenants under the Loan Documents after giving effect to the making of such Revolving Credit Loan. Promptly upon receipt of any such notice, the Agent shall notify each of the Revolving Credit Lenders thereof. Each such Loan Request shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower and shall obligate the Borrower to accept the Revolving Credit Loan requested from the Revolving Credit Lenders on the proposed Drawdown Date. Nothing herein shall prevent the Borrower from seeking recourse against any Revolving Credit Lender that fails to advance its proportionate share of a requested Revolving Credit Loan as required by this Agreement. Each Loan Request shall be (a) for a Revolving Credit Base Rate Loan in a minimum aggregate amount of $1,000,000.00 or an integral multiple of $100,000.00 in excess thereof; or (b) for a Revolving Credit LIBOR Rate Loan in a minimum aggregate amount of $1,000,000.00 or an integral multiple of $250,000.00 in excess thereof; provided, however, that there shall be no more than five (5) Revolving Credit LIBOR Rate Loans outstanding at any one time.

• Making Revolving Credit Loans The Administrative Agent shall, promptly after receipt by it of a Loan Request pursuant to Section 2.5 [Revolving Credit Loan Requests; Swing Loan Requests], notify the Lenders of its receipt of such Loan Request specifying the information provided by the Borrower and the apportionment among the Lenders of the requested Revolving Credit Loans as determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 2.2 [Nature of Lenders’ Obligations with Respect to Revolving Credit Loans]. Each Lender shall remit the principal amount of each Revolving Credit Loan to the Administrative Agent such that the Administrative Agent is able to, and the Administrative Agent shall, to the extent the Lenders have made funds available to it for such purpose and subject to Section 7.2 [Each Loan or Letter of Credit], fund such Revolving Credit Loans to the Borrower in U.S. Dollars and immediately available funds at the Principal Office prior to 2:00 p.m., on the applicable Borrowing Date; provided that if any Lender fails to remit such funds to the Administrative Agent in a timely manner, the Administrative Agent may elect in its sole discretion to fund with its own funds the Revolving Credit Loans of such Lender on such Borrowing Date, and such Lender shall be subject to the repayment obligation in Section 2.6.2 [Presumptions by the Administrative Agent].

• The Revolving Credit Notes The Revolving Credit Loans shall be evidenced by the Revolving Credit Notes. A Revolving Credit Note shall be payable to the order of each Lender in an aggregate principal amount equal to such Lender's Revolving Credit Commitment. The Borrowers irrevocably authorize each Lender to make or cause to be made, at or about the time of the Drawdown Date of any Revolving Credit Loan or at the time of receipt of any payment of principal on such Lender's Revolving Credit Notes, an appropriate notation on such Lender's Revolving Credit Note Record reflecting the making of such Revolving Credit Loan or (as the case may be) the receipt of such payment. The outstanding amount of the Revolving Credit Loans set forth on such Lender's Revolving Credit Note Record shall be prima facie evidence of the principal amount thereof owing and unpaid to such Lender, but the failure to record, or any error in so recording, any such amount on such Lender's Revolving Credit Note Record shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligations of the Borrowers hereunder or under any Revolving Credit Note to make payments of principal of or interest on any Revolving Credit Note when due. Upon receipt of an affidavit of an officer of any Lender as to the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of any Revolving Credit Note or any other security document which is not of public record, and, in the case of any such loss, theft, destruction or mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of such Revolving Credit Note or other security document, the Borrowers will issue, in lieu thereof, a replacement Revolving Credit Note or other security document in the same principal amount thereof and otherwise of like tenor.

• Revolving Credit Advances The Borrower shall repay to the Administrative Agent for the ratable account of the Lenders on the Termination Date the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Credit Advances then outstanding.

• The Revolving Credit Facility On the terms and conditions set forth in the MLA and this Supplement, CoBank agrees to make loans to the Company during the period set forth below in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed, at any one time outstanding, the lesser of $25,000,000.00 (the “Commitment”), or the “Borrowing Base” (as calculated pursuant to the Borrowing Base Report attached hereto as Exhibit A). Within the limits of the Commitment, the Company may borrow, repay and reborrow.

• Revolving Credit Loan Requests Except as otherwise provided herein, subject to the notice requirements set forth in this Section 2.5.1 and the other terms and conditions hereof, the Borrower may from time to time prior to the Expiration Date request the Lenders to make Revolving Credit Loans, or renew or convert the Interest Rate Option applicable to existing Revolving Credit Loans pursuant to Section 4.2 [Interest Periods], by delivering to the Administrative Agent, not later than 11:00 a.m., (i) three (3) Business Days prior to the proposed Borrowing Date with respect to the making of Revolving Credit Loans to which the LIBOR Rate Option applies or the conversion to or the renewal of the LIBOR Rate Option for any Loans; and (ii) the same Business Day of the proposed Borrowing Date with respect to the making of a Revolving Credit Loan to which the Base Rate Option applies or the last day of the preceding Interest Period with respect to the conversion to the Base Rate Option for any Loan, of a duly completed request therefor substantially in the form of Exhibit 2.5.1 or a request by telephone immediately confirmed in writing in such form and delivered by facsimile or email (in “pdf,” “tif” or similar format) (each, a “Loan Request”); it being understood that the Administrative Agent may rely on the authority of any individual making such a telephonic request without the necessity of receipt of such written confirmation. Each Loan Request shall be irrevocable and shall specify or certify, as applicable (i) the proposed Borrowing Date; (ii) the aggregate amount of the proposed Loans comprising each Borrowing Tranche, which amount shall be in (x) an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $5,000,000 for each Borrowing Tranche under the LIBOR Rate Option and (y) an integral multiple of $50,000 and not less than the lesser of $500,000 or the maximum amount available for Borrowing Tranches to which the Base Rate Option applies; (iii) whether the LIBOR Rate Option or Base Rate Option shall apply to the proposed Loans comprising the applicable Borrowing Tranche; and (iv) in the case of a Borrowing Tranche to which the LIBOR Rate Option applies, an appropriate Interest Period for the Loans comprising such Borrowing Tranche.
