ARTICLE I - LOANS, RENEWAL AND TERMINATION

(a) Revolving Credit Commitment. Lender agrees, for so long as no Default or Event of Default exists and subject to the terms of this Agreement (including the provisions of Article VIII hereof), to make Loans and other financial accommodations to Borrower in an aggregate amount up to, but not exceeding, the lesser of: (i) the Revolving Credit Limit; or (ii) the Borrowing Base. The aggregate balance of Revolving Loan Advances shall not at any time exceed the Revolving Credit Limit at any time. Lender shall not be obligated to make available, any Revolving Loan Advances to Borrower to the extent such Revolving Loan Advance when added to the then outstanding Revolving Loan Advances would cause the aggregate outstanding Revolving Loan Advances to exceed the Borrowing Base. If at any time the amount of all Revolving Loan Advances outstanding exceeds the lesser of (i) the Revolving Credit Limit and (ii) the Borrowing Base, Borrower immediately shall make a mandatory prepayment to Lender for the ratable benefit of Lender in an amount not less than such excess within five (5) Business Days after the date such excess occurred.

(b) Revolving Note. The obligations of Borrower to repay the Revolving Loan Advances to Lender and to pay interest thereon shall be evidenced by a separate Revolving Note to Lender. The Revolving Note shall be in a principal amount equal to the Revolving Credit Limit and shall represent the obligation of Borrower to pay Lender the Revolving Credit Limit or, if less, the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all Revolving Loans made by Lender hereunder, plus interest accrued thereon, as set forth herein. Borrower irrevocably authorizes Lender to make or cause to be made appropriate notations on the Revolving Note, or on a record pertaining thereto, reflecting Revolving Loan Advances and repayments thereof. The outstanding amount of the Revolving Loan Advances set forth on Lender’s Revolving Note or record shall be conclusive evidence of the principal amount thereof owing and unpaid to Lender, absent manifest error, but the failure to make such notation or record, or any error in such notation or record shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligations of Borrower hereunder or under the Revolving Note to make payments of principal of or interest on the Revolving Note when due. Any of the foregoing to the contrary notwithstanding, any lack of Lender’s request to be issued the Revolving Note shall not, in any manner, diminish Borrower’s obligation to repay the Revolving Loan Advances made by Lender, together with all other amounts owing to Lender by Borrower.

1.2 Borrowing Procedures.

(a) Each request for a Revolving Loan Advance shall be made by a transmission to Lender of a Notice of Borrowing from Borrower, given not later than 12:00 noon Dallas, Texas time on a Business Day and shall be accompanied by a complete, accurate and current Borrowing Base Certificate, and shall be confirmed by Borrower with Lender by telephone; provided, that Lender shall at any time have the right to review and adjust, in the exercise of its sole discretion, any calculation set forth in the Borrowing Base Certificate or the Notice of Borrowing (i) to reflect Lender’s reasonable estimate of declines in value of any of the Collateral described in such Borrowing Base Certificate, and (ii) to the extent such calculation is not in accordance with this Agreement. Revolving Loan Advances may be repaid and reborrowed in accordance with the provisions hereof. Upon fulfillment of the conditions set forth in Article VIII for such Borrowing, Lender will make such funds available to Borrower at the Lender account specified by Borrower in such Notice of Borrowing.

1.3 Interest.

(a) Interest shall accrue on the outstanding principal balance of the Loans at the Interest Rate. All interest accrued on the outstanding principal balance of the Loans shall be calculated on the basis of a year of three hundred sixty (360) days and the actual number of days elapsed in each month. Accrued interest shall be added to the outstanding principal balance of the Loans on the first Business Day of each calendar month following the month in which such interest accrues.

(b) Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, which Event of Default is not cured to the satisfaction of Lender within ten (10) days from the date such Event of Default first occurred, the unpaid principal balance of the Revolving Loan Advances shall bear interest at a per annum rate equal to the Interest Rate plus two percent (2%) per annum effective as of and from the date such Event of Default first occurred, as determined by Lender.

1.4 Charges to Loan Account. At Lender’s option, exercised in Lender’s sole discretion, Lender may (a) deduct the aggregate amount of principal, interest, fees, costs, expenses, and other charges and amounts provided for in this Agreement or in any other Loan Documents from any Revolving Loan Advance on the due date thereof, (b) treat such amounts as a Revolving Loan Advance or (c) disburse such amount by way of direct payment, which such disbursement shall be deemed to be a Revolving Loan Advance.

1.5 Renewal and Termination.

(a) This Agreement and the Commitment made hereunder shall expire on the Termination Date. Borrower may terminate this Agreement on a date other than the Termination Date, by no less than ten (10) days’ written notice of such termination to Lender and payment to Lender of all payments due upon such termination, as provided in this Agreement.

This Agreement may be supplemented by separate assignments of Receivables and, if such assignments are executed, the rights and interests given by Borrower pursuant to such assignments shall be in addition to, and not in limitation of, the rights and security interests given by Borrower under this Agreement. Lender will not be responsible for the collection of proceeds of any of the Collateral, or for losses of collected proceeds held by Borrower in trust for Lender.

11.9 Binding Effect; Severability. This Agreement shall not be deemed to create any right in any party except as provided herein and shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, the successors and assigns of Borrower and Lender. All of Borrower’s obligations under this Agreement are absolute and unconditional and shall not be subject to any offset or deduction whatsoever. The provisions of this Agreement are intended to be severable. If any provision of this Agreement is held invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part, such provision will be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability without in any manner effecting the validity or enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement.

11.10 Final Agreement. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents are intended by Borrower and Lender to be the final, complete, and exclusive expression of the agreement between them. This Agreement supersedes any and all prior oral or written agreements relating to the subject matter hereof.

11.11 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by the different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all of which shall together constitute one and the same instrument. Any signatures delivered by a party by facsimile transmission or by e-mail transmission of an adobe file format document (also known as a “PDF file”) shall be deemed an original signature hereto. Any party delivering an executed counterpart of this Agreement by facsimile or as a PDF file also shall deliver an original executed counterpart of such agreement but the failure to deliver an original executed counterpart shall not affect the validity, enforceability, and binding effect of this Agreement.

11.12 Captions. The captions contained in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only, are without substantive meaning and should not be construed to modify, enlarge, or restrict any provision.

11.13 Information. Lender agrees to keep confidential any information furnished or made available to it by Borrower pursuant to this Agreement; provided that nothing herein shall prevent Lender from disclosing such information (a) to any Affiliate, or any officer, director, employee, agent, or advisor of Lender or Affiliate of Lender, (b) to any other Person if reasonably incidental to the administration of the credit facility provided herein, (c) as required by any law, rule, or regulation, (d) upon the order of any court or administrative agency, (e) upon the request or demand of any regulatory agency or authority; provided, however, that, to the extent permitted by law, Lender shall provide prior written notice to Borrower of any such request or demand, (f) that is or becomes available to the public or that is or becomes available to Lender other than as a result of a disclosure by Lender prohibited by this Agreement, (g) in connection with any litigation to which such member of Lender or any of its Affiliates may be a party, whether to defend itself, reduce its liability, protect or exercise any of its claims, rights, remedies or interests under or in connection with the Loan Documents or otherwise, (h) to the extent necessary in connection with the exercise of any remedy under this Agreement or any other Loan Document or to any actual or proposed participant or assignee; provided that such party is informed of the confidential nature of such information and that by receiving such information it is agreeing to be bound by these provisions, (i) to Gold Sheets and other similar bank trade publications; such information to consist of deal terms and other information customarily found in such publications subject to the prior review of such communication by the Obligors and (j) to a nationally recognized rating agency that requires access to information regarding the Obligors, the Loans and Loan Documents in connection with ratings issued or (k) any assignee of or participant in, or potential assignee of or participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement; provided that such party is informed of the confidential nature of such information and that by receiving such information it is agreeing to be bound by these provisions.

11.14 Nonliability of Lender. The relationship between Borrower on the one hand and Lender on the other hand shall be solely that of borrower and lender. Lender has no fiduciary responsibilities to Borrower. Lender undertakes no responsibility to Borrower to review or inform Borrower of any matter in connection with any phase of Borrower’s business or operations.

11.15 Maximum Rate. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, Borrower and Lender hereby agree that all agreements among them under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, whether now existing or hereafter arising and whether written or oral, are expressly limited so that in no contingency or event whatsoever shall the amount paid, or agreed to be paid, to Lender for the use, forbearance, or detention of the money loaned to Borrower and evidenced hereby or thereby or for the performance or payment of any covenant or obligation contained herein or therein, exceed the Highest Lawful Rate. If due to any circumstance whatsoever, fulfillment of any provisions of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents at the time performance of such provision shall be due shall exceed the Highest Lawful Rate, then, automatically, the obligation to be fulfilled shall be modified or reduced to the extent necessary to limit such interest to the Highest Lawful Rate, and if from any such circumstance Lender should ever receive anything of value deemed interest by applicable law which would exceed the Highest Lawful Rate, such excessive interest shall be applied to the reduction of the principal amount then outstanding hereunder or on account of any other then outstanding Obligations and not to the payment of interest, or if such excessive interest exceeds the principal unpaid balance then outstanding hereunder and such other then outstanding Obligations, such excess shall be refunded to Borrower. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to Lender for the use, forbearance, or detention of the Obligations and other indebtedness of Borrower to Lender shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the full term of such indebtedness until payment in full so that the actual rate of interest on account of all such indebtedness does not exceed the Highest Lawful Rate throughout the entire term of such indebtedness. The terms and provisions of this Section shall control every other provision of this Agreement and all agreements between Borrower and Lender.

11.16 Right of Setoff. In addition to and not in limitation of all rights of offset that Lender may have under applicable law, Lender shall, if any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and whether or not Lender has made any demand or the Obligations of Borrower are matured, have the right to appropriate and apply to the payment of the Obligations of Borrower all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) then or thereafter held by and other indebtedness or property then or thereafter owing by Lender or other holder, including any and all amounts in the Clearing Account.
