The principal hereof and interest accruing thereon shall be due and payable as provided in the Credit Agreement. This Note may be prepaid only in accordance with the Credit Agreement.

     This Note is issued pursuant, and is subject, to the Credit Agreement, which provides, among other things, for acceleration hereof. This Note is the Revolving Note referred to in the Credit Agreement. This Note evidences not only all Advances of Lender under the Revolving Credit Facility but also all Swing Line Loans made by Lender pursuant to Section 2.1A of the Credit Agreement.

     This Note, among other things, is secured pursuant to the Credit Agreement and the Security Documents as therein defined, and may now or hereafter be secured by one or more other security agreements, mortgages, deeds of trust, assignments or other instruments or agreements.

     The Borrowers hereby agree to pay all costs of collection, including attorneys’ fees and legal expenses in the event this Note is not paid when due, whether or not legal proceedings are commenced.

     This Note shall be governed by the internal substantive laws of the State of Missouri, without regard for its conflicts-of-law principles.

     This Note is a replacement for, but not a novation or refinancing of, the Revolving Note dated as of September 26, 2006 by Borrowers payable to the order of Lender. This Note does not evidence or effect a release, or relinquishment of the priority, of the security interests in any Collateral (as defined in the Credit Agreement).

     ORAL AGREEMENTS OR COMMITMENTS TO LOAN MONEY, EXTEND CREDIT OR TO FORBEAR FROM ENFORCING REPAYMENT OF A DEBT INCLUDING PROMISES TO EXTEND OR RENEW SUCH DEBT ARE NOT ENFORCEABLE, REGARDLESS OF THE LEGAL THEORY UPON WHICH IT IS BASED, THAT IS IN ANY WAY RELATED TO THE CREDIT AGREEMENT.
