• Working Capital Loans (a) Each Senior Lender, severally and not jointly, shall make Working Capital Loans to the Borrower during the period from the Closing Date to but excluding the Termination Date, in an aggregate principal amount not in excess of such Senior Lender’s Commitment. In no event shall the Borrower be entitled to request or receive any Working Capital Loan that would cause (i) the sum of (A) the outstanding principal amount of all Working Capital Loans and Swing Line Loans and (B) the Working Capital LC Exposure to exceed the Working Capital Sublimit or (ii) the sum of (A) the outstanding principal amount of all Working Capital Loans and Swing Line Loans and (B) without duplication, the LC Exposure to exceed the Total Commitment. (b) Each Working Capital Loan Borrowing shall be in an amount specified in a Borrowing Notice delivered pursuant to Section 2.02 (Notice of Working Capital Loan Borrowings). (c) Proceeds of the Working Capital Loans shall be deposited into the Operating Account. Funds so deposited will be disbursed in accordance with the Accounts Agreement. (d) Working Capital Loans repaid or prepaid may be re-borrowed at any time and from time to time to but excluding the Termination Date. Each Senior Lender’s Commitment shall expire on the Termination Date and all Working Capital Loans and all other amounts owed hereunder with respect to Working Capital Loans and the Commitments shall be paid in full no later than such date.

• Line of Credit Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Bank hereby agrees to make advances to Borrower from time to time up to and including April 2, 2015, not to exceed at any time the aggregate principal amount of One Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($1,500,000.00) (“Line of Credit”), the proceeds of which shall be used to finance Borrower’s working capital requirements. Borrower’s obligation to repay advances under the Line of Credit shall be evidenced by a promissory note dated as of May 1, 2012 (“Line of Credit Note”), all terms of which are incorporated herein by this reference.

• Revolving Line of Credit (a) The Bank hereby establishes in favor of the Borrower a revolving line of credit (the “Line of Credit”). The Borrower shall be entitled to borrow, repay and reborrow funds under the Line of Credit in accordance with the terms hereof so long as the total principal amount owed to the Bank under the Line of Credit does not exceed $25,000,000.00 (or such lesser amount as is set forth herein) during the Revolving Period. The Bank’s obligation to make advances hereunder shall terminate at the expiration of the Revolving Period. (b) The Borrower’s indebtedness under the Line of Credit shall be evidenced by a promissory note (as amended, extended or renewed from time to time, the “Line of Credit Note”) of even date herewith executed by the Borrower in favor of the Bank in the original principal amount of $25,000,000.00. The Line of Credit Note shall bear interest at the rate set forth therein and shall be payable as set forth therein. (c) The Bank shall make each advance under the Line of Credit upon written or telephonic notice from the Borrower to the Bank requesting an advance. The notice shall specify the date for which the advance is requested (which must be a Business Day) and the amount of the advance. The Bank must receive the notice prior to 12:00 noon (Eastern time) on the Business Day of the advance. Alternatively, the Borrower may request advances by drawing checks on a deposit account that is linked to the credit facility hereunder in accordance with disbursement arrangements that are mutually satisfactory to the parties. The Bank will make each requested advance available to the Borrower not later than the close of business on the Business Day of the request by crediting the Borrower’s account maintained with the Bank in the amount of the advance if as of such time: (i) the Bank’s obligation to make advances hereunder has not terminated or expired; (ii) a Default or Event of Default has not occurred; and (iii) all conditions to the advance set forth herein or in any other Loan Documents have been satisfied. The Bank may rely upon any written or telephonic notice given by any person that the Bank in good faith believes is an authorized representative of the Borrower without the necessity of any independent investigation. If any telephonic notice conflicts with a written confirmation, the telephonic notice shall govern if the Bank has acted in reliance thereon. (d) For purposes hereof, the term “Revolving Period” shall mean a period commencing on the date hereof and terminating on March 18, 2007.

• Line of Credit Amount (a) During the availability period described below, the Bank will provide a line of credit to the Borrower. The amount of the line of credit (the “Facility No. 1 Commitment”) is Five Million and 00/100 Dollars ($5,000,000.00). (b) This is a revolving line of credit. During the availability period, the Borrower may repay principal amounts and reborrow them. (c) The Borrower agrees not to permit the principal balance outstanding to exceed the Facility No. 1

• Working Capital Upon consummation of the Offering, it is intended that approximately $750,000 of the proceeds from the sale of the Firm Units and Private Units will be released to the Company to fund the working capital requirements of the Company.

• Net Working Capital At least three (3) business days prior to the Closing Date, Sellers shall deliver to Buyer a certificate (the “Estimated NWC Certificate”), including a consolidated balance sheet of the Company as of the Closing Date, prepared in accordance with the accounting principles, methods, practices, estimates, judgments and assumptions applied in the preparation of the Company’s financial statements, consistently applied (the “Accounting Principles”), which shall include (a) the Sellers’ good faith estimate (such estimate is referred to as the “Estimated Net Working Capital Amount”) of the “Net Working Capital Amount.” As used herein, “Net Working Capital Amount” means the Net Working Capital of the Company as of 11:59 p.m. EST on the day immediately preceding the Closing Date. “Net Working Capital” means the result of (i) all cash of the Company minus (ii) all current liabilities (excluding the Existing Indebtedness) of the Company, in each case determined in accordance with the Accounting Principles. The Purchase Price at Closing shall be increased by the Estimated Net Working Capital Amount. No later than ninety (90) days following the Closing Date, Buyer shall prepare and deliver to Sellers (i) a consolidated balance sheet of the Company dated at the Closing Date, which shall be prepared in accordance with the Accounting Principles and (ii) a reasonably detailed statement (the “Final NWC Certificate”) setting forth Buyer’s calculations of the Net Working Capital Amount. If Sellers have any objections to the Final NWC Certificate, Sellers shall deliver to Buyer a statement setting forth its objections thereto (an “Objections Statement”), provided that the only bases for objections shall be (i) non-compliance with the standards set forth above for preparation of the Final NWC Certificate, or as set forth in the definition of Net Working Capital, and (ii) mathematical errors. If an Objections Statement is not delivered to Buyer within thirty (30) days after delivery of the Final NWC Certificate, the Final NWC Certificate shall be final, binding and non-appealable by the parties hereto. Sellers and Buyer shall negotiate in good faith to resolve any objections set forth in the Objections Statement (and all such discussions related thereto shall, unless otherwise agreed by Buyer and Sellers, be governed by Rule 408 of the Federal Rules of Evidence (and any applicable similar state rule)), but if they do not reach a final resolution within thirty (30) days after the delivery of the Objections Statement, Sellers and Buyer may submit such dispute to one of the “Big Four” accounting firms other than Ernst & Young LLP or PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, or, in the event that any such auditor is unable to accept such appointment, to any other nationally recognized independent accounting firm mutually acceptable to Buyer and Sellers (the “Independent Auditor”). Each party shall be afforded an opportunity to present to the Independent Auditor material relating to the disputed issues and to discuss the determination with the Independent Auditor. The Independent Auditor shall act as an auditor and not as an arbitrator and shall resolve matters in dispute and adjust and establish any disputed adjustment of the Net Working Capital Amount to reflect such resolution, provided that the Independent Auditor shall not assign a value to any item or amount in dispute greater than the greatest value for such item or amount assigned by Sellers, on the one hand, or Buyer, on the other hand, or less than the smallest value for such item or amount assigned by Sellers, on the one hand, or Buyer, on the other hand. It is the intent of Buyer and Sellers that the process set forth in this Section 11(F) and the activities of the Independent Auditor in connection herewith are not intended to be and, in fact, are not arbitration and that no formal arbitration rules shall be followed (including rules with respect to procedures and discovery). Sellers and Buyer shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Independent Auditor to resolve all such disagreements as promptly as practicable. The resolution of the dispute by the Independent Auditor shall be final, binding and non-appealable on the parties hereto. The Final NWC Certificate shall be modified if necessary to reflect such determination. The fees and expenses of the Independent Auditor shall be allocated for payment by Buyer, on the one hand, and/or Sellers, on the other hand, based upon the percentage which the portion of the contested amount not awarded to each party bears to the amount actually contested by such party, as determined by the Independent Auditor. If the Net Working Capital Amount as finally determined pursuant to the dispute resolution procedures described above is greater than the Estimated Net Working Capital Amount shown on the Estimated NWC Certificate, then Buyer shall pay to Sellers cash equal to the amount by which the Net Working Capital Amount exceeds the Estimated Net Working Capital Amount. If the Net Working Capital Amount as finally determined pursuant to the dispute resolution procedures described above is less than the Estimated Net Working Capital Amount shown on the Estimated NWC Certificate, then Sellers shall pay to Buyer cash equal to the amount by which the Estimated Net Working Capital Amount exceeds the Net Working Capital Amount.

• Consolidated Capital Expenditures (i) Company will not, and will not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, make or commit to make Consolidated Capital Expenditures in any Fiscal Year, beginning with the Fiscal Year ending December 31, 2003, except Consolidated Capital Expenditures which do not aggregate in excess of the corresponding amount set forth below opposite such Fiscal Year: Fiscal Year ending December 31, 2003 $ 5,000,000 Fiscal Year ending December 31, 2004 $ 5,000,000 Fiscal Year ending December 31, 2005 and each Fiscal Year thereafter $ 7,000,000 provided that (a) if the aggregate amount of Consolidated Capital Expenditures actually made in any such Fiscal Year shall be less than the limit with respect thereto set forth above (before giving effect to any increase therein pursuant to this proviso) (the “Base Amount”), then the amount of such shortfall (up to an amount equal to 50% of the Base Amount for such Fiscal Year, without giving effect to this proviso) may be added to the amount of such Consolidated Capital Expenditures permitted for the immediately succeeding Fiscal Year and any such amount carried forward to a succeeding Fiscal Year shall be deemed to be used prior to Company and its Subsidiaries using the amount of capital expenditures permitted by this section in such succeeding Fiscal Year, without giving effect to such carryforward and (b) for any Fiscal Year (or portion thereof) following any acquisition of a business (whether through the purchase of assets or of shares of capital stock) permitted under subsection 6.7, the Base Amount for such Fiscal Year (or portion) shall be increased, for each such acquisition, by an amount equal to the product of (A) the lesser of (x) $5,000,000 and (y) 4% of revenues of the business acquired in such acquisition for the period of four Fiscal Quarters most recently ended on or prior to the date of such business acquisition multiplied by (B) (x) in the case of any partial Fiscal Year, a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days remaining in such Fiscal Year after the date of such business acquisition and the denominator of which is 365 (or 366 in a leap year), and (y) in the case of any full Fiscal Year, 1. (ii) The parties acknowledge and agree that the permitted Consolidated Capital Expenditure level set forth in clause (i) above shall be exclusive of the amount of Consolidated Capital Expenditures actually made with the proceeds of a cash capital contribution to Company (including the proceeds of issuance of equity securities) made by Parent from the issuance by Parent of its equity Securities after the Closing Date and specifically identified in a certificate delivered by an Authorized Officer of Company to Administrative Agent on or about the time such capital contribution is made; provided that, to the extent any such cash capital contributions constitute Net Securities Proceeds after the Closing Date, only that portion of such Net Securities Proceeds which is not required to be applied as a prepayment pursuant to Section 2.4B(ii)(c) (or pursuant to the First Lien Credit Agreement) may be used for Consolidated Capital Expenditures pursuant to this clause (ii).

• Maximum Capital Expenditures The Parent and the Borrower will, and will cause each Consolidated Subsidiary to, not make Capital Expenditures on a consolidated basis that exceed $30,000,000 in any fiscal year (the “Base Capital Expenditure Amount”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Base Capital Expenditure Amount shall be increased by the following amounts: (i) to the extent that the aggregate amount of Capital Expenditures made by the Parent and its Consolidated Subsidiaries in any fiscal year is less than the Base Capital Expenditure Amount, the amount of such difference may be carried forward and used to make Capital Expenditures in succeeding fiscal years, provided that in any fiscal year, the amount permitted to be applied to make Capital Expenditures pursuant to this clause (i) shall in no event exceed an amount equal to 75% of the unused portion of the Base Capital Expenditure Amount for such fiscal year (without giving effect to any prior adjustments), (ii) if no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, or would result after giving effect thereto, the Parent and its Consolidated Subsidiaries may make additional Capital Expenditures to the extent that the amount of such excess is deducted from the Base Capital Expenditure Amount in succeeding fiscal years, provided that in any fiscal year, the amount permitted to be applied to make Capital Expenditures pursuant to this clause (ii) shall in no event exceed an amount equal to 25% of the Base Capital Expenditure Amount (without giving effect to any prior adjustments) and (iii) the Base Capital Expenditure Amount shall exclude any Capital Expenditures that are funded with the Available Credits; provided that, at the time of such Capital Expenditures, the Borrower shall deliver a certificate of a Financial Officer stating the portion of Capital Expenditures that is being made from the Available Credit, and setting forth a calculation of the Available Credit immediately before and immediately after such Capital Expenditures.

• Credit Line If your application is approved by us, this agreement will constitute a revolving line of credit for an amount which will be the credit line under your Account. We will advise you of the amount of your credit line. That amount will be the maximum amount you may have outstanding at any time. You agree not to attempt to obtain more credit than the amount of your credit line. However, if you temporarily exceed your credit line, you agree to repay the excess immediately, even if we have not yet billed you. Obtaining such credit does not increase your credit line and if you exceed your Credit Limit repeatedly, we may suspend your credit privilege under this Agreement. We retain the right to increase or decrease your credit line at any time for any reason. Any increase of reduction on the limit of your credit line will be shown on your monthly statement or by separate notice together with any changes in the applicable minimum monthly payments. Your eligibility for this credit line is determined by our loan policy and may be terminated at our sole discretion, without demand or notice. You may close your credit line at any time by notifying us in writing and returning all Cards cut in half. If you terminate this Agreement or if we terminate or suspend your credit privileges, the provisions of this Agreement and your liability hereunder shall otherwise remain in full force and effect until you have paid us all sums due under this Agreement and returned all Cards.

• Credit Facility (a) Upon the terms and subject to the conditions hereof, from time to time prior to the Facility Termination Date: (i) Borrower may request Advances in an aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding not to exceed the lesser of the Aggregate Commitment and the Borrowing Base (such lesser amount, the “Borrowing Limit”); and (ii) upon receipt of a copy of each Borrowing Notice, (A) each Unaffiliated Committed Lender severally agrees to fund a Loan in an amount equal to its Percentage of the requested Advance specified in such Borrowing Notice, and (B) each Co-Agent belonging to a Conduit Group shall determine whether its Conduit, if any, will fund a Loan in an amount equal to its Conduit Group’s Percentage of the requested Advance specified in such Borrowing Notice. In the event that a Co-Agent elects not to have its Conduit make any such Loan to Borrower, the applicable Co-Agent shall promptly notify the Funding Agent (who shall promptly notify the Borrower) and, unless Borrower cancels its Borrowing Notice as to all Lenders, (1) each Unaffiliated Committed Lender severally agrees to fund a Loan in an amount equal to its Percentage of the requested Advance, (2) each of such Conduit’s Committed Lenders severally agrees to fund a Loan in an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of its Conduit Group’s Percentage of such Loan and (3) each other Conduit shall fund a Loan in an amount equal to its Percentage of the required Advance, provided that (x) at no time may the aggregate principal amount of any Conduit Group’s Loans outstanding, exceed the lesser of (x) the aggregate amount of such Conduit’s Committed Lenders’ Commitments, and (y) such Conduit Group’s Percentage of the Borrowing Base (such lesser amount, such Conduit Group’s “Allocation Limit”), and (y) at no time may the aggregate principal amount of any Unaffiliated Committed Lender’s Loans outstanding exceed the lesser of (x) such Unaffiliated Committed Lender’s Commitment and (y) its Percentage of the Borrowing Base (such lesser amount, such Unaffiliated Committed Lender’s “Allocation Limit”). Each Advance shall be made ratably amongst the Conduit Groups and the Unaffiliated Committed Lenders, collectively, in accordance with their respective Percentages. Each of the Advances, and all other Obligations of Borrower, shall be secured by the Collateral as provided in Article XIII. Subject to Sections 1.6(d) and (e), it is the intent of the Conduits, but not the Committed Lenders, to fund all Advances by the issuance of Commercial Paper. Borrower shall not make a request for more than six (6) Advances during any calendar month, and no more than six (6) Advances shall occur, during any calendar month. No more than two (2) Advances shall occur, during any calendar week. (b) Borrower may, upon at least 10 Business Days’ notice to the Funding Agent (who shall promptly provide such notice to the Co-Agents), terminate in whole or reduce in part, ratably among the Committed Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitments, the unused portion of the Aggregate Commitment; provided that each partial reduction of the Aggregate Commitment shall be in an amount equal to $20,000,000 (or a larger integral multiple of $1,000,000 if in excess thereof) and shall reduce the Commitments of the Committed Lenders ratably in accordance with their respective Commitments.
