The Borrower grants to the Bank a security interest in the Borrower's accounts and deposits held by the Bank, and the Bank is authorized to setoff and apply amounts in all such accounts and deposits, and all securities and other property in the custody, possession or control of the Bank, against any and all Obligations. This right of setoff may be exercised at any time and from time to time after the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, without prior notice to or demand on the Borrower and regardless of whether any Obligations are contingent, unmatured or unliquidated.

2.3 Interest and Fee Computation; Collection of Funds. Except as otherwise set forth herein, all interest and fees shall be calculated on the basis of a year of 360 days consisting of 12 thirty-day months and shall be paid for the actual number of days elapsed. Principal payments

I\15453359.12

If any payment to be made by the Borrower hereunder or under the Term Note shall become due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and such extension of time shall be included in computing any interest in respect of such payment. All payments shall be made in immediately available funds.

The Bank is authorized to rely on any written, verbal, electronic, telephonic or telecopy loan requests which the Bank believes in its good faith judgment to emanate from a properly authorized representative of Borrower, whether or not that is in fact the case. Borrower does hereby irrevocably confirm, ratify and approve all such advances by the Bank and does hereby indemnify the Bank against losses and expenses (including reasonable court costs, attorneys' and paralegals' fees) and shall hold the Bank harmless with respect thereto, except to the extent such losses and expenses are due to Bank's gross negligence or willful misconduct.

6.SECURITY FOR THE OBLIGATIONS.

6.1 Security for Obligations. As security for the payment of the Obligations, Borrower does hereby pledge, assign, transfer and deliver to the Bank and does hereby grant to the Bank a continuing and unconditional first priority security interest in and to any and all property of Borrower, of any kind or description, tangible or intangible, wheresoever located and whether now existing or hereafter arising or acquired, including, but not limited to, the following (all of which property, along with the products and proceeds therefrom, are individually and collectively referred to as the "Collateral"):

(a) all property of, or for the account of, Borrower now or hereafter coming into the possession, control or custody of, or in transit to, the Bank or any agent or bailee for the Bank or any parent, affiliate or subsidiary of the Bank or any participant with the Bank in the Loan (whether for safekeeping, deposit, collection, custody, pledge, transmission or otherwise), including all earnings, dividends, interest, or other rights in connection therewith and the products and proceeds therefrom, including the proceeds of insurance thereon; and

(b) the additional property of Borrower, whether now existing or hereafter arising or acquired, and wherever now or hereafter located, together with all additions and accessions thereto, substitutions for, and replacements, products and proceeds therefrom, and all of Borrower's books and records and recorded data relating thereto (regardless of the medium of recording or storage), together with all of Borrower's right, title and interest in and to all computer software required to utilize, create, maintain and process any such records or data on electronic media, identified and set forth as follows:

I\15453359.12

(iii) All Inventory, including, without limitation, raw materials, work-in-process and finished goods;

(iv) All Goods (other than Inventory), including, without limitation, embedded software, Equipment, vehicles, furniture and Fixtures;

(vi) All Chattel Paper, Electronic Chattel Paper, Instruments, Documents, Letter of Credit Rights, all proceeds of letters of credit, health care insurance receivables, Supporting Obligations, notes secured by real estate, Commercial Tort Claims and General Intangibles, including Payment Intangibles and contract rights;

(vii) All Proceeds from the foregoing; and

(viii) All insurance policies and proceeds insuring the foregoing property or any part thereof, including unearned premiums.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing grant or anything to the contrary in this Agreement, this Agreement shall not constitute a grant of a security interest in any Excluded Assets.

6.2 Possession and Transfer of Collateral. Until an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing hereunder, the Borrower shall be entitled to possession or use of the Collateral. The cancellation or surrender of the Term Note, upon payment or otherwise, shall not affect the right of the Bank to retain the Collateral for any other of the Obligations. Borrower shall not sell, assign (by operation of law or otherwise), license, lease or otherwise dispose of, or grant any option with respect to any of the Collateral, except for a Permitted Asset Disposition or to the extent otherwise permitted pursuant to this Agreement, nor move nor remove any Collateral from Borrower's premises in the State of Indiana, and provided that the Borrower may sell Inventory in the ordinary course of business.

6.3 Financing Statements. Borrower shall, at the Bank's request, at any time and from time to time, execute and deliver to the Bank such financing statements, amendments and other documents and do such acts as the Bank deems reasonably necessary in order to establish and maintain valid, attached and perfected first security interests in the Collateral in favor of the Bank, free and clear of all Liens and claims and rights of third parties whatsoever (except as otherwise specifically set forth in Article 8 hereof). Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes the Bank at any time, and from time to time, to file in any jurisdiction any initial financing statements and amendments thereto that (a) indicate the Collateral (i) as all assets of Borrower or words of similar effect, regardless of whether any particular asset comprised in the Collateral falls within the scope of Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code of the jurisdiction wherein such financing statement or amendment is filed, or (ii) as being of an equal or lesser scope or within greater detail, and (b) contain any other information required by Section 5 of Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code of the jurisdiction wherein such financing statement or amendment is filed regarding the sufficiency or filing office acceptance of any financing

I\15453359.12

statement or amendment, including (i) whether Borrower is an organization, the type of organization and any organization identification number issued to Borrower, and (ii) in the case of a financing statement filed as a fixture filing or indicating Collateral as as-extracted collateral or timber to be cut, a sufficient description of real property to which the Collateral relates. Borrower agrees to furnish any such information to the Bank promptly upon request. Borrower further ratifies and affirms its authorization for any financing statements and/or amendments thereto, executed and filed by the Bank in any jurisdiction prior to the data of this Agreement.

6.4 Additional Collateral. During the continuance of an Event of Default, Borrower shall deliver to the Bank immediately upon its demand, such other collateral owned by any Borrower or any of its Domestic Subsidiaries as the Bank may from time to time reasonably request, should the value of the Collateral, in the Bank's sole and absolute discretion, decline, deteriorate, depreciate or become impaired.

6.5 Automatic Release of Collateral and Obligors. Any Collateral consisting of assets or equity interests sold or otherwise disposed of in a sale or other disposition or transfer permitted under Section 8.4 shall be automatically released from any lien created by the Loan Documents. In each case as specified in this Section 6.5, the Bank will, at the Borrower's expense, execute and deliver to the applicable Obligor such documents as such Obligor may reasonably request to evidence the release of such item of Collateral from the assignment and security interest granted under the Loan Documents, or to evidence the release of such Obligor from its obligations under this Agreement, in each case in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents and this Section 6.5.

6.6 Preservation of the Collateral. The Bank may, but is not required to, take such action from time to time as the Bank deems appropriate to maintain or protect the Collateral. The Bank shall have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Collateral if it takes such action as the Borrower shall reasonably request in writing; provided, however, that such request shall not be inconsistent with the Bank's status as a secured party, and the failure of the Bank to comply with any such request shall not be deemed a failure to exercise reasonable care. In addition, any failure of the Bank to preserve or protect any rights with respect to the Collateral against prior or third parties, or to do any act with respect to preservation of the Collateral, not so requested by the Borrower, shall not be deemed a failure to exercise reasonable care in the custody or preservation of the Collateral. The Borrower shall have the sole responsibility for taking such action as may be necessary, from time to time, to preserve all rights of the Borrower and the Bank in the Collateral against prior or third parties. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, where Collateral consists in whole or in part of securities, Borrower represents to, and covenants with, the Bank that Borrower has made arrangements for keeping informed of changes or potential changes affecting the securities (including, but not limited to, rights to convert or subscribe, payment of dividends, reorganization or other exchanges, tender offers and voting rights), and Borrower agrees that the Bank shall have no responsibility or liability for informing Borrower of any such or other changes or potential changes or for taking any action or omitting to take any action with respect thereto.

6.7 Other Actions as to any and all Collateral. Borrower further agrees to take any other action reasonably requested by the Bank to insure the attachment, perfection and first

I\15453359.12

priority of, and the ability of the Bank to enforce, the Bank's security interest in any and all of the Collateral including, without limitation, (a) executing, delivering and, where appropriate, filing financing statements and amendments relating thereto under the Uniform Commercial Code, to the extent, if any, that Borrower's signature thereon is required therefor, (b) causing the Bank's name to be noted as secured party on any certificate of title for a titled good if such notation is a condition to attachment, perfection or priority of, or ability of the Bank to enforce, the Bank's security interest in such Collateral, (c) complying with any provision of any statute, regulation or treaty of the United States as to any Collateral if compliance with such provision is a condition to attachment, perfection or priority of, or ability of the Bank to enforce, the Bank's security interest in such Collateral, (d) using commercially reasonable efforts to obtain governmental and other third party consents and approvals, including without limitation any consent of any licensor, lessor or other Person obligated on Collateral, (e) using commercially reasonable efforts to obtain waivers from mortgagees and landlords in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Bank, and (f) taking all actions required by the UCC in effect from time to time or by other law, as applicable in any relevant UCC jurisdiction, or by other law as applicable in any foreign jurisdiction.

6.8 Letter-of-Credit Rights. If Borrower at any time is a beneficiary under a letter of credit now or hereafter issued in favor of Borrower, Borrower shall promptly notify the Bank thereof and, at the request and option of the Bank, Borrower shall, pursuant to an agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Bank, either (i) arrange for the issuer and any confirmer of such letter of credit to consent to an assignment to the Bank of the proceeds of any drawing under the letter of credit, or (ii) arrange for the Bank to become the transferee beneficiary of the letter of credit, with the Bank agreeing, in each case, that the proceeds of any drawing under the letter to credit are to be applied as provided in this Agreement.

6.9 Commercial Tort Claims. If Borrower shall at any time hold or acquire a commercial tort claim with a value in excess of $10,000, Borrower shall promptly notify the Bank in writing signed by Borrower of the details thereof and grant to the Bank in such writing a security interest therein and in the proceeds thereof, all upon the terms of this Agreement, with such writing to be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Bank.

Borrower has full right, power and authority to enter into this Agreement, to make the borrowings and execute and deliver the Loan Documents to which it is a party as provided herein and to perform all of its duties and obligations under this Agreement and the Loan Documents. The execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Loan Documents will not, nor will the observance or performance of any of Borrower's Obligations under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents violate or contravene any provision of law or of the organizational documents of Borrower. All necessary and appropriate action has been taken on the part of Borrower to authorize the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Loan Documents. This Agreement and the Loan Documents are valid and binding agreements and contracts of Borrower enforceable in accordance with their respective terms, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, and similar laws affecting the enforceability of creditors' rights generally.

7.3 Compliance With Laws. The nature and transaction of Borrower's and its Domestic Subsidiaries' (if any) business and operations and the use of their respective properties and assets, including, but not limited to, the Collateral or any real estate owned or occupied by Borrower, do not and during the term of the Loan shall not, violate or conflict with any applicable law, statute, ordinance, rule, regulation or order of any kind or nature, including, without limitation, the provisions of the Fair Labor Standards Act or any zoning, land use, building, noise abatement, occupational health and safety or other laws, any Environmental Laws, any building permit or any condition, grant, easement, covenant, condition or restriction, whether recorded or not, except to the extent any such violation or conflict would not have a material adverse effect on the financial condition of Borrower. The Real Property and any property leased by the Borrower are in full compliance and conformity with all zoning requirements.

7.4 Absence of Breach. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement, the Loan Documents and any other documents or instruments to be executed and delivered by Borrower and the Guarantors in connection with the Loan shall not: (i) violate any provisions of law or any applicable regulation, order, writ, injunction or decree of any court or governmental

I\15453359.12

authority the violation of which would have a material adverse effect on Borrower or its Subsidiaries, or (ii) conflict with, be inconsistent with, or result in any breach or default of any of the terms, covenants, conditions, or provisions of any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, instrument, document, agreement or contract of any kind to which Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which Borrower or its Subsidiaries or any of their property or assets may be bound, except to the extent such conflict, inconsistency, breach or default would not have a material adverse effect on the financial condition of Borrower or its Subsidiaries.

7.5 Collateral Representations. Borrower is the sole owner of its portion of the Collateral, free from any Lien of any kind, other than Permitted Liens.

7.6 Financial Statements. All financial statements submitted to the Bank are true, complete and correct and have been prepared in accordance with GAAP (or, in the case of financial statements for non-Domestic Subsidiaries, similar accounting standards) on a basis, except as otherwise noted therein, consistent with the previous Fiscal Year and truly and accurately reflect the financial condition of the Borrower and Guarantors and the results of the operations for the Borrower and Guarantors as of such date and for the periods indicated. Since the date of the most recent financial statement submitted by the Borrower and Guarantors to the Bank, there has been no material adverse change in the financial condition or in the assets or liabilities of the Borrower or any Guarantor, including the Real Property, or any changes except those occurring in the ordinary course of business.

7.7 Litigation and Taxes. There is no litigation, demand, charge, claim, petition or governmental investigation or proceeding pending, or to the knowledge of Borrower, threatened, against Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, the Real Property or the Collateral, which, if adversely determined, would be likely to result in any material adverse change in the financial condition or properties, business or operations of Borrower or any Subsidiary. Borrower and all Subsidiaries have duly filed all applicable income or other tax returns and has paid all income or other taxes when due (after application of any permitted extensions therefor), except for any such taxes or charges that are being diligently contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and the contesting of which does not create a Lien that is not a Permitted Lien. As of the Closing Date, there is no controversy or objection pending, or to the knowledge of Borrower, threatened in respect of any tax returns of Borrower or any Subsidiaries. Neither Borrower, nor any Guarantor (i) has received notice of any claim with respect to any Environmental Liability or material violation of Environmental Law or knows of any basis for any material Environmental Liability and (ii) and except with respect to any other matters that, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a material adverse effect, neither Borrower nor any Guarantor (A) has failed to comply with any Environmental Law or to obtain, maintain or comply with any permit, license or other approval required under any Environmental Law (B) has become subject to any Environmental Liability, (C) has received notice of any claim with respect to any Environmental Liability or (D) knows of any basis for any Environmental Liability.

7.8 Event of Default. No Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and, to Borrower's knowledge, no event has occurred and is continuing which, with the lapse of time, the giving of notice, or both, would constitute such an Event of Default under this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents and Borrower is not in default (taking into account any applicable

I\15453359.12

grace or cure periods) under any contract or agreement to which it is a party, the effect of which default shall materially adversely affect the performance by Borrower of its obligations pursuant to and as contemplated by the terms and provisions of this Agreement.

Except for the Employee Plans listed on Schedule 7.9, (a) all Employee Plans of Borrower and its Domestic Subsidiaries meet the minimum funding standards of Section 302 of ERISA where applicable and each such Employee Plan that is intended to be qualified within the meaning of Section 401 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 is qualified; (b) no withdrawal liability has been incurred under any such Employee Plans and no "Reportable Event" or "Prohibited Transaction" (as such terms are defined in ERISA), has occurred with respect to any such Employee Plans, unless approved by the appropriate governmental agencies; and (c) Borrower and its Domestic Subsidiaries have promptly paid and discharged all obligations and liabilities arising under ERISA of a character which if unpaid or unperformed might result in the imposition of a Lien against any of their properties or assets.

7.10 Adverse Circumstances. No condition, circumstance, event, agreement, document, instrument, restriction, litigation or proceeding (or, to Borrower's knowledge threatened litigation or proceeding or basis therefor) exists which (a) could adversely affect the validity or priority of the Liens granted to the Bank under the Loan Documents, (b) could materially adversely affect the ability of Borrower or any Domestic Subsidiaries to perform their obligations under the Loan Documents, (c) would constitute an Event of Default under any of the Loan Documents, or (d) would constitute such a default with the giving of notice or lapse of time or both.

7.11 Lending Relationship. Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the relationship hereby created with the Bank is and has been conducted on as open and arm's length basis in which no fiduciary relationship exists and that Borrower has not relied and is not relying on any such fiduciary relationship in executing this Agreement and in consummating the Loan. The Bank represents that it will receive the Term Note payable to its order as evidence of a bank loan.

7.12 Business Loan.

Borrower has good and indefeasible title to, or valid leasehold interests in, all of its real and personal property, free of all Liens other than those permitted by Section 8.2.

The Borrower owns, or is licensed to use, all material trademarks, trade names, copyrights, technology, know-how and processes necessary for the conduct of its business as currently conducted, a correct and complete list of which as of the date of this Agreement is set forth on Schedule 7.16, and the use thereof by Borrower does not infringe in any material respect upon the rights of any other Person, and Borrower's rights thereto are not subject to any licensing agreement or similar arrangement.

7.17 Material Contracts. All material contracts to which Borrower is a party or is bound as of the date of this Agreement are listed on Schedule 7.17 (the "Material Contracts"). Borrower is not in default in the performance, observance or fulfillment of any of the obligations, covenants or conditions contained in (i) any material contract to which it is a party or (ii) any agreement or instrument evidencing or governing Indebtedness.

7.18 Disclosures. (a) Borrower has disclosed to the Bank all agreements, instruments and corporate or other restrictions to which Borrower is subject, and all other matters known to it, that, individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to result in a material adverse effect. None of the reports, financial statements, certificates or other information furnished by or on behalf of Borrower to the Bank in connection with the negotiation of this Agreement or any other Loan Document (as modified or supplemented by other information so furnished) contains any material misstatement of fact or omits to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

All payments due from Borrower, or for which any claim may be made against Borrower, on account of wages and employee health and welfare insurance and other benefits, have been paid or accrued as a liability on the books of Borrower.

7.22 Security Interest in Collateral. The provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents create legal and valid Liens on all the Collateral in favor of the Bank, and such Liens constitute perfected and continuing Liens on the Collateral, enforceable against Borrower and all third parties, and having priority over all other Liens on the Collateral except in the case of (a) Permitted Liens, to the extent any such Permitted Liens would have priority over the Liens in favor of the Bank pursuant to any applicable law or agreement, and (b) Liens perfected only by possession (including possession of any certificate of title), to the extent the Bank has not obtained or does not maintain possession of such Collateral.

7.23 Complete Information. This Agreement and all financial statements, schedules, certificates, confirmations, agreements, contracts, and other materials submitted to the Bank in connection with or in furtherance of this Agreement by or on behalf of the Borrower or the Guarantors fully and fairly state, in all material respects, the matters with which they purport to deal, and neither misstate any material fact nor, separately or in the aggregate, fail to state any material fact necessary to make the statements made not misleading.

9.1 Compliance with Bank Regulatory Requirements. The Borrower shall reimburse the Bank for the Bank's additional costs and/or reductions in the amount of principal or interest received or receivable by the Bank if at any time after the date of this Agreement any law, treaty or regulation or any change in any law, treaty or regulation or the interpretation thereof by any governmental authority charged with the administration thereof or any central bank or other fiscal, monetary or other authority having jurisdiction over the Bank or the Loan, whether or not having the force of law, shall impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve and/or special deposit requirement against or in respect of assets held by or deposits in or for the account of the Loan by the Bank or impose on the Bank any other condition with respect to this Agreement or the Loan, the result of which is to either increase the cost to the Bank of making or maintaining the Loan or to reduce the amount of principal or interest received or receivable by the Bank with respect to such Loan. The Borrower shall pay any such reimbursement to the Bank on the next scheduled payment date as set forth in Section 2.2, provided that the Bank shall have provided the Borrower with at least five Business Days' prior written notice of such reimbursement request. Said additional costs and/or reductions will be those which directly result from the imposition of such requirement or condition on the making or maintaining of such Loan. All Loan shall be deemed to be match funded for the purposes of the Bank's determination in the previous sentence. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower shall not be required to pay any

I\15453359.12

such additional costs which could be avoided by the Bank with the exercise of reasonable conduct and diligence.

9.2 Borrower's Existence; Organization of Borrower and Affiliates. Borrower shall (and shall cause its Subsidiaries to) at all times preserve and maintain its corporate existence (except as permitted under Section 8.4 or 8.10), rights, franchises and privileges, and shall at all times continue as going concerns in the same general lines of business which Borrower is presently conducting, and businesses reasonably related thereto. If Borrower or any of its Domestic Subsidiaries does not have a state issued identification number and later obtains one, Borrower shall promptly notify the Bank of such organizational identification number.

9.3 Maintain Property. Borrower shall (and shall cause its Subsidiaries to) maintain good and marketable title to all of Borrower's assets and properties. The Borrower shall (and shall cause all its Subsidiaries to) at all times maintain, preserve and keep their plant, properties and Equipment, including, but not limited to, any Collateral, in good repair, working order and condition, normal wear and tear excepted, and shall from time to time make all needful and proper repairs, renewals, replacements, and additions thereto so that at all times the efficiency thereof shall be fully preserved and maintained, if failure to so maintain would have a material adverse effect on Borrower's financial condition, operations or business. Borrower shall permit the Bank to examine and inspect such plant, properties and Equipment, including, but not limited to, any Collateral, at all reasonable times and upon reasonable prior notice to Borrower. Borrower shall reimburse the Bank for the costs of performing all such inspections or audits, provided that unless an Event of Default exists and is continuing, the Borrower shall not be required to reimburse the Bank for the cost of more than two (2) such inspections or audits per calendar year.

9.4 Maintain Insurance. The Borrower shall at all times insure, cause to be insured, and keep insured by insurance companies reasonably acceptable to the Bank, all insurable property owned by the Borrower which is of a character usually insured by companies similarly situated and operating like properties, against loss or damage from fire and such other hazards or risks as are customarily insured against by companies similarly situated and operating like properties; and shall similarly insure employers', public and professional liability risks, and, with respect to the Real Property, ensure that coverage is in place in an amount sufficient to replace the Real Property in accordance with the appraisal performed in conjunction with this Loan and with a maximum deductible of $25,000 per incident. At least three (3) days prior to the Closing Date, the Borrower shall deliver to the Bank a certificate setting forth in summary form the nature and extent of the insurance maintained by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 9.4. All such policies of insurance must be reasonably satisfactory to the Bank in relation to the insurance provided, amount and term of the Obligations and type and value of the Collateral and assets of the Borrower and all policies shall identify the Bank as lender's loss payee and as an additional insured, and, on the policies relation to the Real Property, as mortgagee. In the event the Borrower either fails to provide the Bank with evidence of the insurance coverage required by this Section or at any time hereafter shall fail to obtain or maintain any of the policies of insurance required above, or to pay any premium in whole or in part relating thereto, then the Bank, without waiving or releasing any obligation or default by the Borrower hereunder, may, upon at least five Business Days' prior written notice to Borrower (but shall be under no obligation to so act), obtain and maintain such policies of insurance and pay such premium and

I\15453359.12

take any other action with respect thereto, which the Bank deems advisable. This insurance coverage (i) may, but need not, protect any Borrower's interest in such property, including, but not limited to the Collateral, and (ii) may not pay any claim made by, or against, the Borrower in connection with such property, including, but not limited to the Collateral. The Borrower may later cancel any such insurance purchased by the Bank, but only after providing the Bank with evidence that the Borrower has obtained the insurance coverage required by this Section. The costs of such insurance obtained by the Bank, through and including the effective date such insurance coverage is canceled or expires, shall be payable upon at least five Business Days' prior written notice to Borrower. The costs of such insurance, which may be greater than the cost of insurance which the Borrower may be able to obtain on its own may be added to the total Obligations due and owing.

9.5 Tax Liabilities. The Borrower and its Domestic Subsidiaries shall at all times pay and discharge all material property and other taxes, assessments and governmental charges upon, and all claims (including claims for labor, materials and supplies) against the Borrower or any Domestic Subsidiaries any of their material properties, Equipment or Inventory, before the same shall become delinquent and before penalties accrue thereon, unless and to the extent that the same are being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings. The Borrower shall have the right to contest in good faith, by an appropriate proceeding promptly initiated and diligently conducted, the validity, amount, or imposition of any tax, assessment, or charge. Upon a good faith contest, the Borrower may delay or refuse payment of the tax, assessment, or charge, if: (a) the Borrower establishes adequate reserves in accordance with GAAP to cover the anticipated liability for the contested taxes, assessments, or charges; and (b) the contest does not have a material adverse effect on Borrower's financial condition, results of operations or business, the ability of Borrower to pay any of the Liabilities, or the priority of Bank's security interest in the Collateral.

9.6 ERISA Liabilities; Employee Plans. Borrower shall (and shall cause any Domestic Subsidiaries to) (i) keep in full force and effect any and all Employee Plans which are presently in existence or may, from time to time, come into existence under ERISA, and not withdraw from any such Employee Plans, unless such withdrawal can be effected or such Employee Plans can be terminated without material liability to Borrower; (ii) make contributions to all of such Employee Plans in a timely manner and in a sufficient amount to comply with the standards of ERISA; including the minimum funding standards of ERISA; (iii) comply with all material requirements of ERISA which relate to such Employee Plans; (iv) notify the Bank immediately upon receipt by any Borrower of any notice concerning the imposition of any withdrawal liability or of the institution of any proceeding or other action which may result in the termination of any such Employee Plans or the appointment of a trustee to administer such Employee Plans; (v) promptly advise the Bank of the occurrence of any "Reportable Event" or "Prohibited Transaction" (as such terms are defined in ERISA), with respect to any such Employee Plans; and (vi) amend any Employee Plan that is intended to be qualified within the meaning of Section 40l of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to the extent necessary to keep the Employee Plan qualified, and to cause the Employee Plan to be administered and operated in a manner that does not cause the Employee Plan to lose its qualified status.

I\00000000.12

11.2 Sale of Collateral. The Bank may sell any or all of the Collateral at public or private sale, upon such terms and conditions as the Bank may reasonably deem proper, and the Bank may purchase any or all of the Collateral at any such sale (to the extent permitted by law). The Bank may apply the net proceeds, after deducting all reasonable costs, expenses, attorneys' and paralegals' fees incurred or paid at any time in the collection, protection and sale of the Collateral and the Obligations, to the payment of the Term Note and/or any of the other Obligations, returning the excess proceeds, if any, to the Borrower. The Borrower shall remain liable for any amount remaining unpaid after such application, with interest. Any notification of intended disposition of the Collateral required by law shall be conclusively deemed reasonably and properly given if given by the Bank at least ten (10) calendar days before the date of such disposition.

11.3 Standards for Exercising Remedies. To the extent that applicable law imposes duties on the Bank to exercise remedies in a commercially reasonable manner, Borrower acknowledges and agrees that it is not commercially unreasonable for the Bank (a) to fail to incur expenses reasonably deemed significant by the Bank to prepare Collateral for disposition or otherwise to complete raw material or work-in-process into finished goods or other finished products for disposition, (b) to fail to obtain third party consents for access to Collateral to be disposed of, or to obtain or, if not required by other law, to fail to obtain governmental or third party consents for the collection or disposition of Collateral to be collected or disposed of, (c) to fail to exercise collection remedies against account debtors or other Persons obligated on Collateral or to remove liens or encumbrances on or any adverse claims against Collateral, (d) to exercise collection remedies against account debtors and other Persons obligated on Collateral directly or through the use of collection agencies and other collection specialists, (e) to advertise dispositions of Collateral through publications or media of general circulation, whether or not the Collateral is of a specialized nature, (f) to contact other Persons, whether or not in the same business as the Borrower, for expressions of interest in acquiring all or any portion of the

I\15453359.12

Collateral, (g) to hire one or more professional auctioneers to assist in the disposition of Collateral, whether or not the collateral is of a specialized nature, (h) to dispose of Collateral by utilizing Internet sites that provide for the auction of assets of the types included in the Collateral or that have the reasonable capability of doing so, or that match buyers and sellers of assets, (i) to dispose of assets in wholesale rather than retail markets, (j) to disclaim disposition warranties, including, without limitation, any warranties of title, (k) to purchase insurance or credit enhancements to insure the Bank against risks of loss, collection or disposition of Collateral or to provide to the Bank a guaranteed return from the collection or disposition of Collateral, or (l) to the extent deemed reasonably appropriate by the Bank, to obtain the services of other brokers, investment bankers, consultants and other professionals to assist the Bank in the collection or disposition of any of the Collateral. The Borrower acknowledges that the purpose of this Section is to provide non-exhaustive indications of what actions or omissions by the Bank would not be commercially unreasonable in the Bank's exercise of remedies against the Collateral and that other actions or omissions by the Bank shall not be deemed commercially unreasonable solely on account of not being indicated in this Section. Without limitation upon the foregoing, nothing contained in this Section shall be construed to grant any rights to the Borrower or to impose any duties on the Bank that would not have been granted or imposed by this Agreement or by applicable law in the absence of this Section.

11.4 UCC and Offset Rights. The Bank may exercise, from time to time, any and all rights and remedies available to it under the UCC or under any other applicable law in addition to, and not in lieu of, any rights and remedies expressly granted in this Agreement or in any other agreements between any Obligor and the Bank, and may, without demand or notice of any kind, appropriate and apply toward the payment of such of the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, including reasonable costs of collection and attorneys' and paralegals' fees, and in such order of application as the Bank may, from time to time, elect, any indebtedness of the Bank to any Obligor, however created or arising, including, but not limited to, balances, credits, deposits, accounts or moneys of such Obligor in the possession, control or custody of, or in transit to the Bank. Borrower, on behalf of itself and each Obligor, hereby waives the benefit of any law that would otherwise restrict or limit the Bank in the exercise of its right, which is hereby acknowledged, to appropriate at any time hereafter any such indebtedness owing from the Bank to any Obligor.

11.5 Additional Remedies. The Bank shall have the right and power to:

(a) in addition to any other remedies that the Bank may exercise, upon the failure of the Borrower to satisfy any of the financial covenants set forth in Section 10.11, the Interest Rate imposed on the Term Loan shall increase by one-half percent (0.5%), and shall continue to remain at such rate until all financial covenants are brought back into compliance with the terms of this Agreement;

(b) take possession of the Real Property and do anything necessary or desirable in Bank's sole judgment to fulfill the obligations of the Borrower hereunder;

(c) foreclose the Mortgage and exercise any of the rights and remedies contained in this Agreement and/or any of the other Loan Documents and/or exercise any other rights and remedies that Bank may have at law or in equity;

(d) instruct the Borrower, at its own expense, to notify any parties obligated on any of the Collateral, including, but not limited to, any account debtors, to make payment directly to the Bank of any amounts due or to become due thereunder, or the Bank may directly notify such obligors of the security interest of the Bank, and/or of the assignment to the Bank of the Collateral and direct such obligors to make payment to the Bank of any amounts due or to become due with respect thereto, and thereafter, collect any such amounts due on the Collateral directly from such Persons obligated thereon;

(e) enforce collection of any of the Collateral, including, but not limited to any Accounts, by suit or otherwise, or make any compromise or settlement with respect to any of the Collateral, or surrender, release or exchange all or any part thereof, or compromise, extend or renew for any period (whether or not longer than the original period) any indebtedness thereunder;

(f) take possession or control of any proceeds and products of any of the Collateral, including the proceeds of insurance thereon;

(g) extend, renew or modify for one or more periods (whether or not longer than the original period) the Term Note, any other of the Obligations, any obligation of any nature of any other obligor with respect to the Term Note or any of the Obligations;

(h) grant releases, compromises or indulgences with respect to the Term Note, any of the Obligations, any extension or renewal of any of the Obligations, any security therefor, or to any other obligor with respect to the Term Note or any of the Obligations;

(i) transfer the whole or any part of securities which may constitute Collateral into the name of the Bank or the Bank's nominee without disclosing, if the Bank so desires, that such securities so transferred are subject to the security interest of the Bank, and any corporation, association, or any of the managers or trustees of any trust issuing any of said securities, or any transfer agent, shall not be bound to inquire, in the event that the Bank or said nominee makes any further transfer of said securities, or any portion thereof, as to whether the Bank or such nominee has the right to make such further transfer, and shall not be liable for transferring the same;

(j) vote the Collateral;

(k) make an election with respect to the Collateral under Section 1111 of the Bankruptcy Code or take action under Section 364 or any other section of the Bankruptcy Code; provided, however, that any such action of the Bank as set forth herein shall not, in any manner whatsoever, impair or affect the liability of the Borrower hereunder, nor prejudice, waive, nor be construed to impair, affect, prejudice or waive the Bank's rights and remedies at law, in equity or by statute, nor release, discharge, nor be construed to release or discharge, the Borrower, any guarantor or other Person liable to the Bank for the Obligations; and

(l) at any time, and from time to time, accept additions to, releases, reductions, exchanges or substitution of the Collateral, without in any way altering, impairing, diminishing or affecting the provisions of this Agreement, the Loan

I\15453359.12

Documents, or any of the other Obligations, or the Bank's rights hereunder, under the Term Note or under any of the other Obligations.

Borrower hereby ratifies and confirms whatever the Bank may do with respect to the Collateral and agrees that the Bank shall not be liable for any error of judgment or mistakes of fact or law with respect to actions taken in connection with the Collateral.

11.6 Attorney-in-Fact. Borrower hereby irrevocably makes, constitutes and appoints the Bank (and any officer of the Bank or any Person designated by the Bank for that purpose) as Borrower's true and lawful attorney-in-fact (and agent-in-fact), effective upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, for the purposes set forth in this Section 11.6, in Borrower's name, place and stead, with full power of substitution, to (i) take such actions as are permitted in this Agreement, (ii) execute such financing statements and other documents and to do such other acts as the Bank may reasonably require to perfect and preserve the Bank's security interest in, and to enforce such interests in the Collateral, and (iii) endorse Borrower's name to checks, drafts, instruments and other items of payment, and proceeds of the Collateral, execute change of address forms with the postmaster of the United States Post Office serving the address of Borrower, change the address of Borrower to that of the Bank, opening all envelopes addressed to Borrower and apply any payments contained therein to the Obligations.

11.7 No Marshaling. The Bank shall not be required to marshal any present or future collateral security (including but not limited to this Agreement and the Collateral) for, or other assurances of payment of, the Obligations or any of them or to resort to such collateral security or other assurances of payment in any particular order. To the extent that it lawfully may, Borrower hereby agrees that it will not invoke any law relating to the marshaling of collateral which might cause delay in or impede the enforcement of the Bank's rights under this Agreement or under any other instrument creating or evidencing any of the Obligations or under which any of the Obligations is outstanding or by which any of the Obligations is secured or payment thereof is otherwise assured, and, to the extent that it lawfully may, Borrower hereby irrevocably waives the benefits of all such laws.

11.8 Application of Proceeds. The Bank will upon receipt of cash or solvent credits from collection of items of payment, proceeds of Collateral or any other source, apply the whole or any part thereof against the Obligations secured hereby. The Bank shall further have the exclusive right to determine how, when and what application of such payments and such credits shall be made on the Obligations, and such determination shall be conclusive upon the Borrower. Any proceeds of any disposition by the Bank of all or any part of the Collateral may be first applied by the Bank to the payment of reasonable expenses incurred by the Bank in connection with the Collateral, including reasonable attorneys' fees and legal expenses as provided for in Section 12.20 hereof.

11.9 No Waiver. No Event of Default shall be waived by the Bank except in writing. No failure or delay on the part of the Bank in exercising any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver of the exercise of the same or any other right at any other time nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or remedy preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy hereunder. There shall be no obligation on the part of the Bank to exercise any remedy available to the Bank in any order.

I\15453359.12

The remedies provided for herein are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided at law or in equity. Borrower agrees that in the event that Borrower fails to perform, observe or discharge any of its Obligations or liabilities under this Agreement or any other agreements with the Bank, no remedy of law will provide adequate relief to the Bank, and further agrees that the Bank shall be entitled to temporary and permanent injunctive relief in any such case without the necessity of proving actual damages.

12.3 Amendments; Waivers. No amendment, modification, termination, discharge or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or of the Loan Documents, or consent to any departure by the Borrower therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Bank, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only for the specific purpose for which given.

12.4 WAIVER OF DEFENSES; WAIVER OF SPECIAL DAMAGES.

TO INDUCE THE BANK TO MAKE THE LOAN, BORROWER IRREVOCABLY AGREES THAT ALL ACTIONS ARISING, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, AS A RESULT OR CONSEQUENCE OF THIS AGREEMENT, THE TERM NOTE, ANY OTHER AGREEMENT WITH THE BANK OR THE COLLATERAL SHALL BE INSTITUTED AND LITIGATED ONLY IN COURTS HAVING THEIR SITUS IN THE CITY OF INDIANAPOLIS, INDIANA. BORROWER HEREBY CONSENTS TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION AND VENUE OF ANY STATE OR FEDERAL COURT HAVING ITS SITUS IN SAID CITY, AND WAIVES ANY OBJECTION BASED ON FORUM NON CONVENIENS.

12.7 Assignability. The Bank may at any time assign the Bank's rights in this Agreement, the Term Note, the Obligations, or any part thereof and transfer the Bank's rights in any or all of the Collateral, and the Bank thereafter shall be relieved from all liability with respect to such Collateral. In addition, the Bank may at any time sell one or more participations in the Loan. The Borrower may not sell or assign this Agreement, or any other agreement with the Bank or any portion thereof, either voluntarily or by operation of law, without the prior written consent of the Bank, which the Bank will not unreasonably withhold, condition or delay. This Agreement shall be binding upon the Bank and the Borrower and their respective legal representatives and successors. All references herein to Borrower shall be deemed to include any successors, whether immediate or remote. In the case of a joint venture or partnership, the term "Borrower" shall be deemed to include all joint venturers or partners thereof, who shall be jointly and severally liable hereunder.

I\15453359.12

affiliates, auditors and regulators, and in compliance with the order of a court or other governmental agency having jurisdiction over the Bank or such affiliate, to any other party. Borrower and the Bank further agree that this provision shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

12.9 Binding Effect. This Agreement shall become effective upon execution by the Borrower and the Bank. If this Agreement is not dated or contains any blanks when executed by the Borrower, the Bank is hereby authorized, without notice to the Borrower, to date this Agreement as of the date when it was executed by the Borrower, and to complete any such blanks according to the terms upon which this Agreement is executed.

12.10 Governing Law. This Agreement, the Loan Documents and the Term Note shall be delivered and accepted in and shall be deemed to be contracts made under and governed by the internal laws of the State of Indiana (but giving effect to federal laws applicable to national banks), and for all purposes shall be construed in accordance with the laws of such State, without giving effect to the choice of law provisions of such State.

12.11 Enforceability. Wherever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement shall be prohibited by, unenforceable or invalid under any jurisdiction, such provision shall as to such jurisdiction, be severable and be ineffective, but this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect as to all other clauses, terms, and conditions, and the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall be amended so as to render the Agreement as a whole most nearly consistent with the parties' intentions in light of the removal of the invalid or illegal provision; provided that no such amendment of this Agreement shall have the effect of invalidating the remaining provisions of this Agreement or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.

12.12 Survival of Borrower Representations. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Borrower herein shall, notwithstanding any investigation by the Bank, be deemed material and relied upon by the Bank and shall survive the making and execution of this Agreement and the Loan Documents and the issuance of the Term Note, and shall be deemed to be continuing representations and warranties until such time as the Borrower has fulfilled all of its Obligations to the Bank, and the Bank has been paid in full. The Bank, in extending financial accommodations to the Borrower, is expressly acting and relying on the aforesaid representations and warranties.

12.13 Extensions of Bank's Commitment and Notes. This Agreement shall secure and govern the terms of any extensions or renewals of the Bank's commitment hereunder and the Term Note pursuant to the execution of any modification, extension or renewal note executed by the Borrower and accepted by the Bank in its sole and absolute discretion in substitution for the Term Note.

12.14 Time of Essence. Time is of the essence in making payments of all amounts due the Bank under this Agreement and in the performance and observance by the Borrower of each covenant, agreement, provision and term of this Agreement.

I\15453359.12

12.15 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

12.16 Facsimile Signatures. The Bank is hereby authorized to rely upon and accept as an original any Loan Documents or other communication which is sent to the Bank by facsimile, telegraphic or other electronic transmission (each, a "Communication") which the Bank in good faith believes has been signed by Borrower and has been delivered to the Bank by a Designated Person, whether or not that is in fact the case. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Bank shall not be obligated to accept any such Communication as an original and may in any instance require that an original document be submitted to the Bank in lieu of, or in addition to, any such Communication.

12.17 Notices. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Borrower waives all notices and demands in connection with the enforcement of the Bank's rights hereunder. All notices, requests, demands and other communications provided for hereunder shall be in writing, sent by certified or registered mail, postage prepaid, by facsimile, or delivered in person, and addressed as follows:

12.18 Indemnification. Borrower agrees to defend (with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Bank), protect, indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnified Party from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, claims, costs, expenses and distributions of any kind or nature (including, without limitation, the disbursements and the reasonable fees of counsel for each Indemnified Party thereto, which shall also include, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and time charges of attorneys who may be

I\15453359.12

employees of the Bank, any parent corporation or affiliated corporation of the Bank and which are directly charged to the Bank), which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against, any Indemnified Party (whether direct, indirect or consequential and whether based on any federal, state or local laws or regulations, including, without limitation, securities, Environmental Laws and commercial laws and regulations, under common law or in equity, or based on contract or otherwise) in any manner relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents, or any act, event or transaction related or attendant thereto, the preparation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Loan Documents, including, but not limited to, the making or issuance and management of the Loan, the use or intended use of the proceeds of the Loan, the enforcement of the Bank's rights and remedies under this Agreement, the Loan Documents, the Term Note, any other instruments and documents delivered hereunder, or under any other agreement between the Borrower and the Bank; provided, however, that the Borrower shall not have any obligations hereunder to any Indemnified Party with respect to matters caused by or resulting from the willful misconduct or gross negligence of such Indemnified Party. To the extent that the undertaking to indemnify set forth in the preceding sentence may be unenforceable because it violates any law or public policy, the Borrower shall satisfy such undertaking to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law. Any liability, obligation, loss, damage, penalty, cost or expense covered by this indemnity shall be paid to each Indemnified Party on demand, and, failing prompt payment, shall, together with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date incurred by each Indemnified Party until paid by the Borrower, be added to the Obligations of the Borrower and be secured by the Collateral. The provisions of this Section 12.18 shall survive the satisfaction and payment of the other Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

12.19 Severability. If any one or more of the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement or the Term Note is invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining obligations of the Borrower shall not in any way be affected or impaired, and the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability in one jurisdiction shall not affect the validity, legality or enforceability of the Obligations of the Borrower in any other jurisdiction.

12.20 Expenses. The Borrower agrees to pay or reimburse the Bank for all its out-of-pocket costs and expense and reasonable attorneys' fees incurred in connection with the development, preparation and execution of, and in connection with the enforcement or preservation of any rights under, this Agreement, any amendment, supplement or modification hereto, and any other documents prepared in connection herewith or therewith. These costs and expenses include without limitation any costs or expenses incurred by the Bank in any bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency or other similar proceeding.

12.21 Non-Liability of the Bank. The relationship between the Borrower and the Bank created by this Agreement is strictly a debtor and creditor relationship and not fiduciary in nature, nor is the relationship to be construed as creating any partnership or joint venture between the Bank and the Borrower. Borrower is exercising Borrower's own judgment with respect to Borrower's business. All information supplied to the Bank is for the Bank's protection only and no other party is entitled to rely on such information. There is no duty for the Bank to review, inspect, supervise or inform Borrower of any matter with respect to Borrower's business. The Bank and the Borrower intend that that Bank may reasonably rely on all information

I\15453359.12

supplied by the Borrower to the Bank, together with all representations and warranties given by the Borrower to the Bank, without investigation or confirmation by the Bank and that any investigation or failure to investigate will not diminish the Bank's right to so rely.

12.22 Sole Discretion of the Bank. Whenever the Bank's consent or approval is required under this Agreement, the decision as to whether or not to consent or approve shall be in the sole and exclusive discretion of the Bank and the Bank's decision shall be final and conclusive.

12.23 Advice of Counsel. The Borrower acknowledges that they have been advised by counsel, or had the opportunity to be advised by counsel, in the negotiation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

12.24 Conflicting Terms. If this Agreement is inconsistent with any provision in any other Loan Document, the Bank shall determine, in the Bank's sole and absolute discretion, which of the provisions shall control any such inconsistency.

12.25 Customer Identification - USA Patriot Act Notice. The Bank hereby notifies the Borrower that, pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act, Title III of Pub. L. 107-56, signed into law October 26, 2001 (the "Act"), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies Borrower, which information includes the names and addresses of Borrower and other information that will allow the Bank to identify Borrower in accordance with the Act.
