REVOLVING CREDIT LOANS

Section 2.01 Revolving Credit.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each of the Banks severally and not jointly agrees to make loans (the “Revolving Credit Loans”) according to each such Bank’s Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Credit Commitment, to Borrower from time to time during the period from the Restatement Date up to but not including the Revolving Credit Termination Date, provided that the aggregate principal amount of all Revolving Credit Loans outstanding at any time does not exceed the Availability for Revolving Credit Loans. Each Revolving Credit Loan which shall not utilize the Availability for Revolving Credit Loans in full shall be in the minimum amount set forth in Section 2.11 hereof. Subject to the terms hereof, the Borrower may borrow, make an Optional Prepayment pursuant to Section 2.08 hereof, and reborrow under this Section 2.01 hereof.

(b) A Bank Default by a Defaulting Bank shall not relieve any other Bank of its obligation (if any) to make such Revolving Credit Loan on such date, but no other Bank shall be responsible for the failure by a Defaulting Bank to make such Revolving Credit Loans.

(c) Subject to the provisions of Section 14.01 hereof, the advance rates set forth in the definition of “Borrowing Base” may be increased or decreased by Agent at any time and from time to time in the exercise of its commercially reasonable discretion in good faith and in accordance with customary credit practices in the asset based lending industry. Borrower consents to any such increases or decreases and acknowledges that decreasing the advance rates or increasing or imposing Availability Reserves may limit or restrict Revolving Credit Loans requested by Borrower. Agent shall give Borrower five (5) days prior written notice of its intention to decrease such advance rates.

Section 2.02 [Intentionally Omitted.]

Section 2.03 Notice and Manner of Borrowing. Borrower shall give Agent telephonic notice, to be followed by written or telegraphic or facsimile notice in the form of Exhibit D hereto (irrevocable and effective upon receipt) of any Loan, such notice to indicate, in the case of a Revolving Credit Loan, whether such Loan shall be a Prime Rate Loan or a Revolving Eurodollar Rate Loan. Each of the foregoing notices (a “Borrowing Notice”) must specify the date and the amount of such Loan to the Agent and the Agent will promptly notify each Bank of receipt by the Agent of a Borrowing Notice and of the contents thereof. In the case of a Eurodollar Rate Loan, the Borrowing Notice shall be received not later than three (3) Banking Days prior to such Eurodollar Rate Loan and shall specify the Interest Period selected, In the case of a Prime Rate Loan, the Borrowing Notice shall be received not later than noon (New York time) on the date of such proposed Prime Rate Loan. Not later than 1:00 P.M. (New York time) on the date of a Loan, each Bank will cause to be transmitted to the Agent, to an account designated by the Agent, in immediately available funds, such Bank’s Pro Rata Share of such Loan. After the Agent’s receipt of such funds, not later than 3:00 P.M. (New York time) on the date of a Loan, and upon fulfillment of the applicable conditions set forth in Article VI, the Agent will make such Loan available to Borrower in immediately available funds by crediting the amount thereof to the accounts as designated by Borrower to Agent.

Section 2.04 Conversions and Continuation.

(a) The Borrower shall have the right to convert one type of Revolving Credit Loan into another type of Revolving Credit Loan at any time or from time to time; provided that: (i) the Borrower shall give the Agent at least three (3) Banking Days notice of the conversion of a Prime Rate Loan into a Revolving Eurodollar Rate Loan and (ii) Revolving Eurodollar Rate Loans may be prepaid or converted only on the last day of an Interest Period for such Revolving Eurodollar Rate Loan.

(b) Borrower may, as long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, elect to continue any Eurodollar Rate Loan at any time prior to the expiration of the applicable Interest Period; provided that the Borrower shall give the Agent at least three (3) Banking Days notice of the continuation of such Eurodollar Rate Loan.

(c) If the Borrower shall have failed to timely continue pursuant to Section 2.04(b) hereof a Eurodollar Rate Loan, then, upon the expiration of the Interest Period applicable to such Eurodollar Rate Loan, the Borrower shall be deemed to have elected to continue such Eurodollar Rate Loan as a Eurodollar Rate Loan with a one-month Interest Period; provided that no Default or Event of Default of the type described in Section 11.01(a) and (e) hereof then exists.

(d) After the occurrence of and during the continuation of a Default or an Event of Default of the type described in Section 11.01(a) or (e) hereof, the Borrower may not elect (i) to have a Loan be made as a Revolving Eurodollar Rate Loan, (ii) to have a Revolving Credit Loan converted to a Revolving Eurodollar Rate Loan, or (iii) to have a Eurodollar Rate Loan continued as a Eurodollar Rate Loan, after the expiration of any applicable Interest Period.

(e) Upon receipt of a notice of conversion pursuant to Section 2.04(a) hereof or a notice of continuation pursuant to Section 2.04(b) hereof, the Agent will promptly notify each Bank thereof, or, if no timely notice is provided by the Borrower, the Agent will promptly notify each Bank of the details of any automatic conversion. All conversions and continuations shall be made according to each Bank’s applicable Pro Rata Share of the outstanding principal amounts of the Revolving Credit Loans or the Term Eurodollar Rate Loans with respect to which the notice was given.

Section 2.05 Non-Receipt of Funds by Agent. Unless the Agent shall have received notice from a Bank, prior to the date on which such Bank is to provide funds to the Agent for a Loan to be made by such Bank, that such Bank will not make available to the Agent such funds, the Agent may assume that such Bank has made such funds available to Agent on the date of such Loan in accordance with Section 2.03 hereof and the Agent, in its sole discretion, may, but shall not be obligated to, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If and to the extent such Bank shall not have made such funds available to the Agent, such Bank agrees to repay the Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to Borrower until the date such amount is repaid to the Agent, for three (3) Banking Days, at the Federal Funds Rate and thereafter, at the Prime Rate. If such Bank shall repay to the Agent such corresponding amount, such amount so repaid shall constitute such Bank’s Loan for purposes of this Agreement. If such Bank does not pay such corresponding amount forthwith upon Agent’s demand therefor, the Agent shall promptly notify Borrower, and Borrower shall immediately pay such corresponding amount to the Agent with the interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to Borrower until the date such amount is repaid to the Agent, at the rate of interest applicable at the time to such proposed Loan. Unless the Agent shall have received notice from Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to any Bank hereunder that Borrower will not make such payment in full, the Agent may assume that Borrower has made such payment in full to the Agent on such date and the Agent, in its sole discretion, may, but shall not be obligated to, in reliance upon such assumption, cause to be distributed to each Bank on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such Bank. If and to the extent Borrower shall not have so made such payment in full to the Agent, each Bank shall repay to the Agent forthwith on demand such amount distributed to such Bank together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is distributed to such Bank until the date such Bank repays such amount to the Agent, for three (3) Banking Days, at the Federal Funds Rate and thereafter at the Prime Rate.

Section 2.06 Interest. Borrower shall pay interest to the Agent, for the account of the applicable Bank, on the outstanding and unpaid principal amount of the Loans at a rate per annum equal to the Interest Rate. Any principal or interest amount not paid when due (at maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) shall bear interest thereafter, payable on demand, at the Default Rate.

The interest rate on each Prime Rate Loan shall change when the Prime Rate changes. Interest on each Loan shall not exceed the maximum amount permitted under applicable Law and shall be calculated on the basis of a year of three hundred sixty (360) days for the actual number of days elapsed.

Accrued interest shall be due and payable (a) in the case of a Prime Rate Loan (i) in arrears on each Monthly Date, commencing with the first such date after such Prime Rate Loan, and (ii) upon each payment or prepayment of principal on such Prime Rate Loan and (b) in the case of a Eurodollar Rate Loan, at the end of each Interest Period and, in the case of a Eurodollar Rate Loan with an Interest Period of more than three months’ duration, each day prior to the last day of such Interest Period that occurs at intervals of three months’ duration after the first day of such Interest Period, and (c) in the case of a prepayment that reduces the Revolving Credit Commitment in accordance with Section 2.08 hereof, upon each such prepayment.

Section 2.07 Notes. All Revolving Credit Loans made by each Bank under this Agreement shall be evidenced by, and repaid with interest in accordance with, a single promissory note of Borrower in substantially the form of Exhibit F duly completed, in the principal amount equal to such Bank’s Pro Rata Share of the total Revolving Credit Commitment, dated the date such bank becomes a Bank, payable to such Bank and maturing as to principal on the Revolving Credit Termination Date (the “Revolving Credit Notes”). Each Bank is hereby authorized by Borrower to endorse on the schedule attached to the Revolving Credit Note held by it the amount of each Revolving Credit Loan, and the payment amount of each principal payment received by such Bank on account of the Revolving Credit Loans, which endorsement shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive as to the outstanding balance of the Revolving Credit Loans made by such Bank; provided however, that the failure to make such notation with respect to any Revolving Credit Loan or payment shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligations of Borrower under this Agreement or the Revolving Credit Note held by such Bank. Each Bank agrees that prior to any assignment of the Revolving Credit Note, it will endorse the schedule attached to its Revolving Credit Note.

Section 2.08 Repayments and Mandatory and Optional Prepayments.

(a) The Revolving Loans shall be due and payable in full on the Revolving Credit Termination Date subject to earlier prepayment as provided herein.

(b) Borrower recognizes that the amounts evidenced by checks, notes, drafts or any other items of payment relating to and/or proceeds of Collateral may not be collectible by Agent on the date received. In consideration of Agent’s agreement to conditionally credit Borrower’s Account as of the Banking Day on which Agent receives those items of payment, Borrower agrees that, in computing the charges under this Agreement, all items of payment shall be deemed applied by Agent on account of the Obligations one (1) Banking Day after (i) the Banking Day Agent receives such payments via wire transfer or electronic depository check or (ii) in the case of payments received by Agent in any other form, the Banking Day such payment constitutes good funds in Agent’s account. Agent is not, however, required to credit Borrower’s Account for the amount of any item of payment which is unsatisfactory to Agent, as may be determined by Agent in its commercially reasonable judgment and Agent may charge Borrower’s Account for the amount of any item of payment which is returned to Agent unpaid.

(c) Borrower may prepay without premium or penalty but subject to the provisions of Section 13.03 hereof a Eurodollar Rate Loan, in whole or in part, with accrued interest to the date of such prepayment on the amount paid, provided that, each partial prepayment shall be in a principal amount of not less than One Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($1,500,000) (each such payment, an “Optional Prepayment”).

(d) During the term of this Agreement, Borrower shall make mandatory prepayments (i) in an amount equal to the net proceeds received in any Fiscal Year, from the sale of all or any part of the assets of the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary; (ii) in an amount equal to the net proceeds received by Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary from the sale or issuance of any debt instrument, and (iii) in an amount equal to the net proceeds received by Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary under any insurance policy, to the extent that, in the case of property and casualty insurance, such proceeds are not used by Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary to repair or replace the property which was the subject of such insurance claim, with a reasonable period of time but in no event later than six (6) months from the date such proceeds are received by the Borrower or such Subsidiary, unless Borrower or such Subsidiary has taken action to effect such repair or replacement, as determined by the Agent in good faith, or unless otherwise agreed to by the Agent. With respect to prepayments received by the Agent for the ratable benefit of Banks under this Section 2.08(d), such prepayments shall be applied first, to the then outstanding Revolving Credit Loans, and second, at the discretion of Agent, to be held as Cash Collateral to secure Letter of Credit Obligations.

(e) To the extent that, at any given time, (i) the Outstanding Credit Facilities exceed the then effective Revolving Credit Commitment, or (ii) the Outstanding Credit Facilities exceed the sum of the Availability for Revolving Credit Loans plus the Letter of Credit Obligations, or (iii) the Revolving Credit Loans exceed the Availability for Revolving Credit Loans, or (iv) the Obligations exceed any of the other borrowing limitations set forth in this Agreement, in each case the Borrower shall immediately pay to the Agent for the ratable benefit of the Banks a mandatory prepayment of the Revolving Credit Loans in an amount equal to such excess and/or Borrower shall immediately provide Cash Collateral for the Letter of Credit Obligations to the extent required to eliminate such excess. Any Cash Collateral deposited with the Agent for the ratable benefit of the Banks in accordance with the terms of this Section 2.08 shall be credited, for purposes of the calculation of Availability for Revolving Credit Loans under Section 2.01 hereof, against the outstanding Letter of Credit Obligations subject to Section 2.08(f) hereof.

(f) In the event Eurodollar Rate Loans are outstanding at the time of any payment under this Section 2.08 hereof, such payment shall be applied first to reduce any Prime Rate Loans outstanding to zero. Any remaining payment amount shall be deemed to be Cash Collateral and shall be deposited by Agent in a segregated account to be applied to the Eurodollar Rate Loans. The Cash Collateral in such segregated account shall represent a reduction of the Eurodollar Rate Loans then outstanding and such amount shall be credited against Revolving Credit Loans for purposes of calculating Availability for Revolving Credit Loans. Agent shall hold such amounts in such segregated account and use it to pay the Eurodollar Rate Loans as such loans mature. If the amounts in the segregated account are sufficient to pay (at maturity) the then outstanding Eurodollar Rate Loans, any remaining payment shall then be applied to Letter of Credit Obligations in accordance with Section 2.08(d) hereof.

Section 2.09 Method of Payment. All payments of principal, interest and other amounts payable hereunder, under the Notes or under any other Loan Document shall be made, without setoff or counterclaim, not later than 2:00 p.m. (New York time) on the date when due in Dollars to the Agent at the Agent’s Office in immediately available funds and if received after 2:00 p.m. New York time, then such payment shall be credited the next Banking Day. The Agent will promptly thereafter cause to be distributed to each Bank (a) such Bank’s Pro Rata Share of the payments of principal and interest in like funds, and (b) fees or sums payable to such Bank in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, including, but not limited to, amounts due in accordance with Article XIII.

Borrower hereby authorizes the Agent to charge, from time to time, against any account it maintains with the Agent or any Bank, any such amount so due to the Agent and/or the Banks and the Agent agrees to provide a written notice of such charge to the Borrower within a reasonable period after such charge.

Except to the extent provided in this Agreement, whenever any payment to be made under this Agreement or under the Notes shall be stated to be due on any day other than a Banking Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Banking Day, and such extension of time shall, in such case, be included in the computation of the payment of interest and other fees, as the case may be.

Section 2.10 Use of Proceeds. On and after the date hereof, the proceeds of the Revolving Credit Loans will be used by Borrower to provide working capital for Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries. The Trade Letters of Credit will be used for importation and purchasing of inventory by Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries.

Borrower will not, directly or indirectly, use any part of such proceeds for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any margin stock within the meaning of Regulation U of the Board of Governors or to extend credit to any Person for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any such margin stock.

Section 2.11 Minimum Amounts. Each Eurodollar Rate Loan shall be in an amount at least equal to One Million Five Hundred Thousand ($1,500,000) Dollars and in integral multiples of $500,000 in excess thereof.

All entries in the Loan Account shall be made in accordance with Agent’s customary practices as in effect from time to time. The records of Agent shall be conclusive and binding, in the absence of manifest error.

(b) All proceeds of Collateral shall be deposited by Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries into a lockbox account, dominion account or such other blocked account (collectively, the “Blocked Accounts”) as Agent may require pursuant to an arrangement with such bank (the “Blocked Account Bank”) as may be selected by Borrower and be acceptable to Agent. Agent acknowledges and agrees that Borrower’s accounts at JPMorgan Chase Bank are acceptable Blocked Accounts and that JPMorgan Chase Bank is an acceptable Blocked Account Bank. Borrower (or the applicable Restricted Subsidiary), Agent and such Blocked Account Bank shall enter into an agreement directing said Blocked Account Bank to transfer such funds so deposited to Agent, either to any account maintained by Agent at said Blocked Account Bank or by wire transfer to appropriate account(s) of Agent. All funds deposited in a Blocked Account shall immediately become the property of Agent. Neither Agent nor any Bank assumes any responsibility for any Blocked Account arrangement, including without limitation, any claim of accord and satisfaction or release with respect to deposits accepted by any bank thereunder. Alternatively, Agent may establish depository accounts (collectively, the “Depository Accounts”) in the name of Agent at a bank or banks for the deposit of such funds and Borrower shall deposit all proceeds of Collateral or cause same to be deposited, in kind, in such Depository Accounts of Agent in lieu of depositing same to the Blocked Accounts.

Section 2.13 Closing Fee. Upon the execution of this Agreement, Borrower shall pay to Agent, for the ratable benefit of Banks, a closing fee in the amount of Two Hundred Forty Thousand Dollars ($240,000), which fee shall be fully earned and payable as of the date hereof.

Section 2.14 Fee Letter. Borrower shall pay the amounts required to be paid in the Fee Letter and at the times required by the Fee Letter.

Section 2.15 Commitment Fee. If, for any Agreement Quarter (as defined below) during the term of this Agreement, the average daily unpaid balance of the Revolving Credit Loans plus Letter of Credit Obligations for Borrower for each day of such quarter does not equal the Revolving Credit Commitment then Borrower shall pay to Agent, for the ratable benefit of Banks, a fee at a rate equal to one half of one percent (.50%) per annum on the amount by which the Revolving Credit Commitment exceeds such aggregate average daily unpaid balance of the Revolving Credit Loans plus Letter of Credit Obligations for Borrower. Such fee shall be payable by Borrower to Agent in arrears on the last day of each calendar quarter, shall be fully earned as of the date of payment and shall not be subject to refund, rebate or proration for any reason whatsoever. For the purposes of this Section 2.14 only, the term “Agreement Quarter” shall mean each calendar quarter of each calendar year.

Section 2.16 Defaulting Bank.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the event any Bank (x) has refused (which refusal constitutes a breach by such Bank of its obligations under this Agreement) to make available its portion of any Loan or (y) notifies either Agent or Borrower that it does not intend to make available its portion of any Loan (if the actual refusal would constitute a breach by such Bank of its obligations under this Agreement) (each, a “Bank Default”), all rights and obligations hereunder of such Bank (a “Defaulting Bank”) as to which a Bank Default is in effect and of the other parties hereto shall be modified to the extent of the express provisions of this Section 2.16 while such Bank Default remains in effect.

(b) Loans shall be incurred pro rata from Banks (the “Non-Defaulting Banks”) which are not Defaulting Banks based on their respective Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Credit Commitment, and no Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Credit Commitment of any Bank or any Pro Rata Share of any Loans required to be advanced by any Bank shall be increased as a result of such Bank Default. Amounts received in respect of principal of any type of Loans shall be applied to reduce the applicable Loans of each Bank (other than any Defaulting Bank) pro rata based on the aggregate of the outstanding Loans of that type of all Banks at the time of such application; provided that Agent shall not be obligated to transfer to a Defaulting Bank any payments received by Agent for the Defaulting Bank’s benefit, nor shall a Defaulting Bank be entitled to the sharing of any payments hereunder (including any principal, interest or fees). Amounts payable to a Defaulting Bank shall instead be paid to or retained by Agent. Agent may hold and, in its discretion, re-lend to Borrower the amount of such payments received or retained by it for the account of such Defaulting Bank.

(c) A Defaulting Bank shall not be entitled to give instructions to Agent or to approve, disapprove, consent to or vote on any matters relating to this Agreement and the Other Documents. All amendments, waivers and other modifications of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents may be made without regard to a Defaulting Bank and, for purposes of the definition of “Required Banks”, a Defaulting Bank shall be deemed not to be a Bank and not to have either Loans outstanding or a Revolving Credit Commitment.

(d) If there are Letter of Credit Obligations outstanding at the time a Bank becomes a Defaulting Bank then the Borrower shall within five (5) Banking Days following notice by the Agent, cash collateralize such Defaulting Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Letter of Credit Obligations until (i) such Letter of Credit Obligations cease to be outstanding, (ii) such Bank ceases to be a Defaulting Bank, or (iii) such Defaulting Bank assigns its Pro Rata Share of such Letter of Credit Obligations to one or more Banks or other assignees pursuant to Section 14.04, whichever shall first occur.

(e) Other than as expressly set forth in this Section 2.16, the rights and obligations of a Defaulting Bank (including the obligation to indemnify Agent) and the other parties hereto shall remain unchanged. Nothing in this Section 2.16 shall be deemed to release any Defaulting Bank from its obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, shall alter such obligations, shall operate as a waiver of any default by such Defaulting Bank hereunder, or shall prejudice any rights which Borrower, Agent or any Bank may have against any Defaulting Bank as a result of any default by such Defaulting Bank hereunder.

(f) In the event a Defaulting Bank retroactively cures to the satisfaction of Agent the breach which caused a Bank to become a Defaulting Bank, such Defaulting Bank shall no longer be a Defaulting Bank and shall be treated as a Bank under this Agreement.

If the Instrument is in foreign currency, such reimbursement shall be in Dollars at Letter of Credit Issuing Bank’s selling rate for cable transfers to the place of payment of the Instrument current on the date of payment or of Letter of Credit Issuing Bank’s settlement of its obligation, as Letter of Credit Issuing Bank may require. If, for any cause, on the date of payment or settlement, as the case may be, there is no selling rate or other rate of exchange generally current in New York for effecting such transfers, each applicable Letter of Credit Account Party will pay Letter of Credit Issuing Bank on demand an amount in Dollars equivalent to Letter of Credit Issuing Bank’s actual cost of settlement of its obligation however or whenever Letter of Credit Issuing Bank shall make such settlement, with interest at the Prime Rate for Revolving Credit Loans from the date of settlement to the date of payment. Each Letter of Credit Account Party will comply with all governmental exchange regulations now or hereafter applicable to each Letter of Credit or Instrument or payments related thereto and will pay Letter of Credit Issuing Bank, on demand, in Dollars, such amount as Letter of Credit Issuing Bank may be or may have been required to expend on account of such regulations. HSBC may debit, or direct any other Bank to debit, any account or accounts maintained by any other Letter of Credit Account Party with any office of HSBC or any other Bank or any of their respective Subsidiaries or Affiliates (now or in the future) and apply the proceeds to the payment of any and all amounts owed by any Letter of Credit Account Party to Letter of Credit Issuing Bank hereunder, and such Bank, Subsidiary or Affiliate shall be authorized to act in accordance herewith and shall treat this authorization as irrevocable, and HSBC agrees to provide a written notice of such debit to the Borrower within a reasonable period after such debit.

Section 3.03 Payment of Commissions, Expenses and Interest. Each Letter of Credit Account Party will pay interest where chargeable, including reasonable fees and charges of counsel, or reasonable costs allocated by Letter of Credit Issuing Bank’s internal legal department in connection with the enforcement of this Agreement or any Letter of Credit. Unless otherwise agreed:

(a) interest payable under this Article III on amounts not paid when due shall be at the lesser of (i) the maximum rate permissible under applicable Law and (ii) the Default Rate;

(b) each Letter of Credit Account Party shall pay to Letter of Credit Issuing Bank on demand such amounts as Letter of Credit Issuing Bank, in its sole discretion, determines are necessary to compensate it for any cost attributable to its issuing or having outstanding such Letter of Credit resulting from the application of any Law or regulation applicable to Letter of Credit Issuing Bank regarding any reserve, assessment, capital adequacy or similar requirements relating to letters of credit or the reimbursement agreements with respect thereto or to similar liabilities or assets of Letter of Credit Issuing Bank whether existing at the time of issuance of the Letter of Credit or adopted thereafter including, but not limited to, fees and amounts payable with respect to amendments to and increases of a Letter of Credit. Each Letter of Credit Account Party acknowledges that there may be various methods of allocating costs to the Letter of Credit and agrees that Letter of Credit Issuing Bank’s allocation for purposes of determining the costs referred to above shall be conclusive and binding upon each Letter of Credit Account Party provided such allocation is made in good faith; and

(c) in addition to the Letter of Credit Issuing Bank’s standard fees and charges for Letters of Credit and all other fees, commissions and other amounts otherwise payable with respect to issuance of Letters of Credit, including, but not limited to, a fee equal to one quarter of one (0.25%) percent of the face amount of each Letter of Credit payable upon issuance (the “Letter of Credit Issuance Fee”) (all of which shall be for the Letter of Credit Issuing Bank’s own account), each Letter of Credit Account Party shall pay to Agent (for the pro rata benefit of the Banks) an amount equal to (i) four (4.00%) percent per annum of the face amount of each Standby Letter of Credit issued for the account of such Letter of Credit Account Party, payable quarterly in advance upon issuance (the “Standby Letter of Credit Fee”) and (ii) two and one-quarter of one (2.25%) percent per annum of the face amount of each Trade Letter of Credit issued for the account of such Letter of Credit Account Party, payable quarterly in advance upon issuance (the “Trade Letter of Credit Fee”).

Section 3.04 Proper Drawing; Letter of Credit Issuing Bank’s Honoring. Letter of Credit Issuing Bank may accept or pay any Instrument presented to it on or before the expiration date of the applicable Letter of Credit. Except insofar as written instructions may be given by an Authorized Person expressly to the contrary, and prior to Letter of Credit Issuing Bank’s issuance of a Letter of Credit:

(a) Letter of Credit Issuing Bank may honor the related Instrument(s) in an amount or amounts not exceeding the amount of such Letter of Credit, although shipment(s) in excess of the quantity called for under such Letter of Credit are made, and

(b) Letter of Credit Issuing Bank may honor, as complying with the terms of such Letter of Credit and of the Application relating to it, any Instrument or other document otherwise in order signed or issued by a person purporting to be an administrator, executor, trustee in bankruptcy, debtor in possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors, liquidator, receiver or other legal representative of the party authorized under such Letter of Credit to draw or issue such Instruments or other documents.

Section 3.05 Standby Letters of Credit. During the period from the Restatement Date to five (5) Banking Days prior to the Revolving Credit Termination Date, Letter of Credit Issuing Bank may open, at the request of and for the account of a Letter of Credit Account Party, Standby Letters of Credit; provided, that, at no time will the outstanding Standby Letter of Credit Obligations exceed the lesser of (a) Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000), or (b) the Revolving Credit Commitment less outstanding Revolving Credit Loans and Letter of Credit Obligations (other than Standby Letter of Credit Obligations) or (c) the Borrowing Base less outstanding Revolving Credit Loans and Letter of Credit Obligations (other than Standby Letter of Credit Obligations) (the “Standby Letter of Credit Commitment”). No Standby Letter of Credit shall have a stated expiration date later than the earlier of (a) the Revolving Credit Termination Date (unless collateralized as provided in Section 3.01 hereof) or (b) 364 days from the date of issuance. For the purpose of calculating the Net Availability and the Availability for Revolving Credit Loans as such term is used in the definition of Net Availability, Standby Letters of Credit shall be deemed Revolving Credit Loans and not Letters of Credit. No Standby Letter of Credit shall be issued by the Letter of Credit Issuing Bank after May 1, 2011 unless collateralized as provided in Section 3.01 hereof.

Section 3.06 Amendment; Change; Modification; No Waiver.

No amendment, change, waiver, or modification to which Letter of Credit Issuing Bank has consented shall be deemed to mean that Letter of Credit Issuing Bank will consent or has consented to any other or subsequent request to amend, change, modify or waive a term of such Letter of Credit. Letter of Credit Issuing Bank shall not be deemed to have waived any of its rights hereunder, unless Letter of Credit Issuing Bank or its authorized agent shall have signed such waiver in writing. No such waiver, unless expressly stated therein, shall be effective as to any transaction which occurs subsequent to the date of such waiver, nor as to any continuance of a breach after such waiver.

Section 3.07 U.C.P. and I.S.P.; Agreements and Acknowledgments; Indemnification.

(ii) all Instruments and documents delivered to it, from time to time, and, in the event of any claim of non compliance with a Letter of Credit Account Party’s instructions or other irregularity, the applicable Letter of Credit Account Party will immediately notify Letter of Credit Issuing Bank thereof in writing, each Letter of Credit Account Party being conclusively deemed to have waived any such claim against Letter of Credit Issuing Bank and its correspondents unless such notice is given as aforesaid;

(e) any action, inaction or omission on the part of Letter of Credit Issuing Bank or any of its correspondents, under or in connection with a Letter of Credit or the related Instruments, documents or property, if, in good faith, shall be binding upon each Letter of Credit Account Party and shall not place Letter of Credit Issuing Bank or any of its correspondents under any liability to any Letter of Credit Account Party; and

(f) in the event that Letter of Credit Issuing Bank shall pre-assign a letter of credit number or numbers to any Letter of Credit Account Party, each Letter of Credit Account Party shall keep such number(s) confidential and shall not disclose any such number to any Person until the Letter of Credit to which such number relates has been approved by Letter of Credit Issuing Bank.

Section 3.08 Licenses; Insurance; Regulations. Each Letter of Credit Account Party will procure promptly any necessary import, export or other licenses for the import, export or shipping of the property shipped under or pursuant to or in connection with each Letter of Credit, and will comply with all foreign and domestic governmental regulations in regard to the shipment of such property or the financing thereof, and will furnish such certificates in that respect as Letter of Credit Issuing Bank may, at any time(s), reasonably require, and will keep such property adequately covered by insurance in amounts, against risks and with companies reasonably satisfactory to Agent, and will assign the policies or certificates of insurance to Agent, or will make the loss or adjustment, if any, payable to Agent, at Agent’s option, and will furnish Agent, on its demand, with evidence of acceptance by the insurers of such assignment. Should the insurance upon such property for any reason be unsatisfactory to Agent, Agent may, at Borrower’s expense, obtain insurance satisfactory to Agent.

Each Application for a Trade Letter of Credit hereunder shall constitute the warranty and certification made by each Letter of Credit Account Party that is a party to such Application that no shipment or payment to be made in connection with such Trade Letter of Credit violates or will violate any Law or any United States export, currency control, or other regulations.

Section 3.09 Airway and Steamship Guaranties. HSBC may, in its discretion, issue a letter of indemnity or such other document requested by the party in possession of merchandise to enable a Letter of Credit Account Party to take possession of such merchandise forthwith without production of the shipping documents (an “Airway Guaranty” or “Steamship Guaranty”, as the case may be). Such Airway Guaranty or Steamship Guaranty shall be deemed a part of the Letter of Credit Obligations and shall be included, without duplication, as such in the calculation of the Borrowing Base, the Availability for Revolving Credit Loans, the Trade Letter of Credit Commitment and the Standby Letter of Credit Commitment, as applicable, provided, however, that any merchandise which is the subject of such Airway Guaranty or Steamship Guaranty shall not be included in Eligible Inventory or Eligible In-Transit Inventory or Eligible Trade Letters of Credit.

Section 3.11 Continuing Rights and Obligations. Agent’s and Letter of Credit Issuing Bank’s rights hereunder shall continue unimpaired, and each Letter of Credit Account Party shall be and remain obligated in accordance with the terms and provisions hereof, notwithstanding the release and/or substitution of any property which may be held as Collateral at any time(s), or of any rights or interest therein. No delay, extension of time, renewal, compromise or other indulgence which may occur or be granted by Agent and/or Letter of Credit Issuing Bank shall impair Agent’s and/or Letter of Credit Issuing Bank’s rights or powers hereunder.

Section 3.12 Instructions; No Liability. Instructions may be honored by Agent and Letter of Credit Issuing Bank when received from an Authorized Person. Each Letter of Credit Account Party may furnish Agent and Letter of Credit Issuing Bank with written confirmation of any such Instruction, but Agent’s and Letter of Credit Issuing Bank’s responsibility with respect to any Instruction shall not be affected by its failure to receive, or the content of, such confirmation. Neither Agent nor Letter of Credit Issuing Bank shall have responsibility to notify any Letter of Credit Account Party of any discrepancies between such Letter of Credit Account Party’s instructions and its written confirmation, and in the event of any such discrepancy, the original Instruction shall govern. Agent and Letter of Credit Issuing Bank shall be fully protected in, and shall incur no liability to any Letter of Credit Account Party for, acting upon any Instructions or any oral, written, telephone, teleprocess, electronic, or other amendments thereto which it in good faith believes to have been given by any Authorized Person, and in no event shall Agent or Letter of Credit Issuing Bank be liable for special, consequential, or punitive damages in connection therewith.

All such authorizations and instructions shall continue in full force and effect unless Letter of Credit Issuing Bank may elect to act upon additional instructions delivered to it by any Letter of Credit Account Party prior to the issuance of a Letter of Credit in reliance upon the original Instructions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, each Letter of Credit Issuing Bank is authorized to delegate to one or more of its Affiliates any or all of its rights and obligations with respect to any or all Letters of Credit issued by such Letter of Credit Issuing Bank; provided that, no Letter of Credit may be issued by, and no obligations under outstanding Letters of Credit may be delegated to, an Affiliate of a Letter of Credit Issuing Bank unless (i) such Letter of Credit is confirmed by a Letter of Credit Issuing Bank, or (ii) such Affiliate of a Letter of Credit Issuing Bank has the same or better credit rating as the applicable Letter of Credit Issuing Bank based on the credit rating assigned to each by Xxxxx’x Investors Service, Inc. or Standard & Poor’s Ratings Group (a division of The McGraw Hill Companies, Inc.) (or any successor or assignee of the business of each such company in the business of rating securities credit rating).

Section 3.15 Existing Letters of Credit; Use of Term “Letter of Credit Issuing Bank”.

(a) Banks, Borrower, Guarantors, Agent and Letter of Credit Issuing Bank hereby acknowledge and agree that the Existing Letters of Credit constitute Letters of Credit hereunder and commencing the Restatement Date, each Bank shall be deemed to have purchased from the Letter of Credit Issuing Bank an undivided participating interest in the obligations of the Letter of Credit Issuing Bank under and in connection with such Existing Letters of Credit pursuant to Article IV hereof.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, with respect to all Letters of Credit, to the extent that any consent or action is required by, or any notice is required to be provided to, the Letter of Credit Issuing Bank for any matter relating to Letters of Credit, the Letter of Credit Issuing Bank shall be deemed to mean only HSBC and such consent, action and/or notice shall only be required of/to HSBC.

Section 3.16 Borrower’s Obligations Under Letters of Credit. With respect to Letters of Credit issued for the account of a Letter of Credit Account Party that is not the Borrower, the Borrower hereby agrees that, in addition to each other Letter of Credit Account Party for whose account such Letter of Credit has been issued, the Borrower shall be primarily obligated for all reimbursement obligations and Letter of Credit Fees in connection with any and all such Letters of Credit to the same extent as if such Letters of Credit had named the Borrower as the account party therefor.

ARTICLE IV

PARTICIPATION

Section 4.01 Participating Banks’ Pro Rata Shares. Subject to the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth in this Article IV, Letter of Credit Issuing Bank hereby agrees to sell and each Participating Bank hereby agrees to purchase a risk participation (“Participation”) from Letter of Credit Issuing Bank in each Letter of Credit to the extent of each Bank’s Pro Rata Share.

Section 4.02 Sale and Purchase of Participation. Each Participating Bank hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to purchase, and Letter of Credit Issuing Bank hereby agrees to sell and transfer to each Participating Bank, an undivided fractional interest equal to such Participating Bank’s Pro Rata Share in each Letter of Credit upon issuance thereof and each draw thereunder upon such drawing, and in the obligations of the Letter of Credit Account Parties in respect of each such Letter of Credit under this Agreement and the Letter of Credit (including all related payments and recoveries to which such Participating Bank is entitled pursuant to Section 4.05 hereof).

Section 4.03 Participation in Fees and Collateral; Relationship. Agent shall pay each Participating Bank its Pro Rata Share of each Letter of Credit Fee (other than the Letter of Credit Issuance Fee). These fee shall be due and payable promptly, after such Fees are paid to Agent.

The relationship between Letter of Credit Issuing Bank (in its capacity as seller of a Participation pursuant to this Article IV) and each Participating Bank (in its capacity as purchaser of a Participation pursuant to this Article IV) is and shall be that of a purchaser and seller of a property interest and not a creditor-debtor relationship or joint venture. Letter of Credit Issuing Bank (in its capacity as seller of a Participation pursuant to this Article IV) shall owe each Participating Bank (in its capacity as purchaser of a Participation pursuant to this Article IV) no duty except as specifically set forth in this Article IV.

Section 4.04 Procedures. Whenever a draw shall be made under a Letter of Credit and a Letter of Credit Account Party shall fail to reimburse Letter of Credit Issuing Bank therefor in accordance with this Agreement, Letter of Credit Issuing Bank will promptly notify each Participating Bank regarding such draw as follows: (a) the date of such draw, and (b) the amount of such draw or payment. Although Letter of Credit Issuing Bank shall be responsible for paying each such draw on each Letter of Credit, each Participating Bank shall bear its Pro Rata Share of the credit risk associated with each such draw. Accordingly, in the event that the amount of any such draw is not paid in full by or on behalf of a Letter of Credit Account Party when required in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, for any reason, Letter of Credit Issuing Bank shall give prompt notice by telephone (promptly confirmed in writing) or telex to each Participating Bank of such event. Upon receipt of such telephone or telex notice, each Participating Bank shall cause to be transmitted to Letter of Credit Issuing Bank, to an account to be specified by Letter of Credit Issuing Bank, an amount in immediately available funds equivalent to its Pro Rata Share of such draw or payment in such manner to ensure that such funds are received by, and available to, Letter of Credit Issuing Bank by 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the date demand therefor was made by Letter of Credit Issuing Bank (if demand was made by 11:00 A.M., New York City time) or by 10:00 A.M., New York City time, on the Banking Day following the date demand therefore was made (if demand was made after 11:00 A.M., New York City time) and any such payment by each Participating Bank shall be deemed a Revolving Credit Loan.

Letter of Credit Issuing Bank shall advise each Participating Bank quarterly of its Pro Rata Share of the Letter of Credit Obligations (but shall have no liability for its failure to do so). In addition, Letter of Credit Issuing Bank shall supply any notices of reasonable requests in the ordinary course of business.

Section 4.05 Collections and Remittances. Whenever Letter of Credit Issuing Bank receives any payment, interest reimbursement, collection, recovery, setoff, counterclaim or banker’s lien on account of a Letter of Credit, whether from a Letter of Credit Account Party, the Collateral, or otherwise, it shall allocate such receipt as follows:

(a) First, to the payment of taxes, assessments, insurance premiums, legal fees, or for similar purposes as required by the Letter of Credit, as the case may be, or any other Loan Document, and, if previously paid by Agent or Letter of Credit Issuing Bank, such sums shall be retained by Agent or Letter of Credit Issuing Bank, as the case may be; and

(b) Second, in the event a Letter of Credit Account Party fails to reimburse Letter of Credit Issuing Bank, when due, for any draw under a Letter of Credit, and Letter of Credit Issuing Bank receives a payment of or on account of such defaulted amount as to which a Participating Bank has paid Letter of Credit Issuing Bank the amount of its Pro Rata Share pursuant to Section 4.04 hereof, that portion of the amount received shall be allocated between each such Participating Bank and Letter of Credit Issuing Bank pro rata, with each such Participating Bank’s percentage of the principal amount based on its Pro Rata Share and with each such Participating Bank’s portion of the interest and fees on its Pro Rata Share based upon the amounts set forth above.

If any payment received by Letter of Credit Issuing Bank and distributed or credited to a Participating Bank is later rescinded or is otherwise returned by Letter of Credit Issuing Bank for whatever reason (including, without limitation, settlement of an alleged claim), each such Participating Bank, upon demand by Letter of Credit Issuing Bank, shall immediately pay to Letter of Credit Issuing Bank, such Participating Bank’s Pro Rata Share of the amount so returned, with interest at the Federal Funds Rate from and after the date of demand. The covenants contained in this paragraph shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

Section 4.06 Sharing of Setoffs and Collections. Each Participating Bank agrees that to the extent any payment is received by it on any of a Letter of Credit Account Party’s obligations under a Letter of Credit, whether by counterclaim, setoff, banker’s lien, by realizing on collateral or otherwise and such payment results in such Participating Bank receiving a greater payment than it would have been entitled to under Section 4.05 hereof had the total amount of such payment been paid directly to Letter of Credit Issuing Bank for disbursement according to that Section, then such Participating Bank shall immediately purchase for cash from Letter of Credit Issuing Bank an additional Participation and a participation from the other Participating Banks in such Letter of Credit (subject to the same terms and conditions provided for herein), sufficient in amount so that such payment shall effectively be shared pro rata with HSBC and the other Participating Banks in accordance with the amount, and to the extent, of their respective interests in the Letter of Credit; provided however, that if all or any portion of such payment is thereafter recovered from such Participating Bank at any time, the purchase shall be rescinded and the purchase price returned to the extent of such recovery upon demand by such Participating Bank with interest at the Federal Funds Rate from and after the date of demand.

Section 4.07 Indemnification; Costs and Expense. To the extent not reimbursed by a Letter of Credit Account Party, and without limiting the obligation of the Letter of Credit Account Parties to do so, each Participating Bank agrees to, on demand, reimburse each Letter of Credit Issuing Bank for, indemnify each Letter of Credit Issuing Bank against, and hold each Letter of Credit Issuing Bank harmless from, to the extent of each such Participating Banks Pro Rata Share of, any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses, or disbursements of any kind whatsoever (including, without limitation, disbursements necessary, in the reasonable judgment of such Letter of Credit Issuing Bank, to preserve or protect the Collateral), that may, at any time, be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against such Letter of Credit Issuing Bank in any way relating to this Agreement, a Letter of Credit, the Collateral or any other Revolving Credit Loan Document or other instrument relating to any of the foregoing, or the transactions contemplated thereby and hereby, or any action taken or omitted by such Letter of Credit Issuing Bank under or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided however, that no Participating Bank shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses, or disbursements resulting from such Letter of Credit Issuing Bank’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment. The covenants contained in this Section 4.07 hereof shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

Section 4.08 Administration; Standard of Care. Letter of Credit Issuing Bank will administer each Letter of Credit in the ordinary course of business and in accordance with its usual practices, modified from time to time as it deems appropriate under the circumstances. Except as expressly set forth in the third paragraph of this Section 4.08, Letter of Credit Issuing Bank shall be entitled to use its discretion in taking or refraining from taking any actions in connection with any of the foregoing as if it were the sole party involved in any of the foregoing and no Participation existed.

Each Participating Bank acknowledges that its Participation hereunder is without recourse to any Letter of Credit Issuing Bank and that each such Participating Bank expressly assumes all risk of loss in connection with its Participation in the Letters of Credit as if such Participating Bank had directly provided such Letters of Credit. No Letter of Credit Issuing Bank shall have any liability express or implied, for any action taken or omitted to be taken by such Letter of Credit Issuing Bank or for any failure or delay in exercising any right or power possessed by such Letter of Credit Issuing Bank under any of the Loan Documents except for actual losses, if any, suffered by any Participating Bank that are proximately caused either by such Letter of Credit Issuing Bank’s gross negligence or by such Letter of Credit Issuing Bank’s willful misconduct, in each case as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment. Without limiting the foregoing, each Letter of Credit Issuing Bank (a) may consult with legal counsel, independent public accountants, appraisers, and other experts, selected by such Letter of Credit Issuing Bank, and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such persons, (b) shall be entitled to rely on, and shall incur no liability by acting upon, any conversation, notice, consent, certificate, statement, order, or any document or other writing (including, without limitation, telegraph, telex, telecopy, TWX, or other telecommunication device) believed by such Letter of Credit Issuing Bank to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent, or made by the proper person, (c) makes no warranty or representation of any kind or character relating to any Letter of Credit Account Party or the Collateral, and shall not be responsible for any warranty or representation made in or in connection with any of the Loan Documents, (d) makes no warranty or representation as to, and shall not be responsible for the correctness as to form, the due execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency, or collectability of any of the Loan Documents, for any failure by any Letter of Credit Account Party or any Person to perform its obligations thereunder, for a Letter of Credit Account Party’s use of the proceeds therefrom, or for the preservation of the Collateral or the loss, depreciation, or release thereof, (e) makes no warranty or representation as to, and assumes no responsibility for, the authenticity, validity, accuracy, or completeness of any notice, financial statement, or other document or information received by such Letter of Credit Issuing Bank or any Participating Bank in connection with, or otherwise referred to in, any of the Loan Documents, and (f) shall not be required to make any inquiry concerning the observance or performance of any agreement contained in, or conditions of, any of the Loan Documents, or to inspect the property, books, or records of any Letter of Credit Account Party or any Person.

Notwithstanding the provisions of the first paragraph of this Section 4.08, each Letter of Credit Issuing Bank agrees that it will not waive any Event of Default without the consent of the Participating Banks constituting the Required Banks and it will not take any of the following actions without the written consent of each Participating Bank: (i) extend the maturity date of any Letter of Credit beyond ninety (90) days after the Revolving Credit Termination Date; (ii) increase the amount of the Trade Letter of Credit Commitment or the Standby Letter of Credit Commitment; (iii) reduce the fees charged on the Letters of Credit below the amount required to be paid to such Letter of Credit Issuing Bank or to the Participating Banks pursuant to the terms of this Article IV; or (iv) release any Guarantor or any Collateral, except as otherwise contemplated in any Loan Documents. Each Letter of Credit Issuing Bank shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under any of the Loan Documents unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Participating Banks constituting the Required Banks.

Each Letter of Credit Issuing Bank and the Participating Banks may lend money to, accept deposits from, and generally engage in any kind of business with each Letter of Credit Account Party as freely as though no Participation had been granted to a Participating Bank.

Section 4.09 Independent Investigation by the Participating Banks. Each Participating Bank acknowledges (a) that each Letter of Credit Issuing Bank has provided such Participating Bank with copies of all of the Loan Documents and each Letter of Credit Account Party and each Letter of Credit Issuing Bank has provided or granted such Participating Bank access to, certain financial data and other information pertaining to the Letter of Credit Account Parties and the Guarantors that such Participating Bank has requested in order to enable it to make an independent, informed judgment with respect to the desirability of purchasing Participation in the Letters of Credit, (b) that no Letter of Credit Issuing Bank has made any representations or warranties to such Participating Bank and that no prior or future act by any Letter of Credit Issuing Bank, including, without limitation, any review of the affairs of any Letter of Credit Account Party, shall be deemed to constitute a representation or warranty of such Letter of Credit Issuing Bank, and (c) that such Participating Bank has independently, without reliance upon any Letter of Credit Issuing Bank, and based on such information as such Participating Bank has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, operations, property, financial condition, and general credit worthiness of each Letter of Credit Account Party, made its own analysis of the value and Lien status of any Collateral, and made its own decision to execute this Agreement and thereby purchase from the applicable Letter of Credit Issuing Bank(s) a Participation in accordance with this Article IV in the Letters of Credit.

YIELD PROTECTION

Section 13.01 Additional Costs. (a) Borrower shall pay directly to the Agent from time to time within five (5) Banking Days after demand, such amounts as any Bank may reasonably determine to be necessary to compensate it for any costs which the Bank determines are attributable to its making or maintaining any Eurodollar Rate Loans under this Agreement or its obligation to make any such loans hereunder, or any reduction in any amount receivable by the Bank hereunder in respect of any such loans or such obligation (such increases in costs and reductions in amounts receivable being herein called “Additional Costs”), resulting from any Regulatory Change which: (i) changes the basis of taxation of any amounts payable to the Bank under this Agreement in respect of any of such loans (other than taxes imposed on the overall net income of the Bank for any of such loans by the jurisdiction in which the Bank has its principal office or is deemed to hold the loans); or (ii) imposes or modifies any reserve, special deposit, deposit insurance or assessment, minimum capital, capital ratio or similar requirements relating to any extensions of credit or other assets of, or any deposits with or other liabilities of, the Bank (including any of such loans or any deposits referred to in the definition of “Eurodollar Base Rate”; or (iii) imposes any other condition affecting this Agreement (or any extensions of credit or liabilities), except to the extent any such Regulatory Change has previously resulted in a change in the calculation of Eurodollar Rate as a result of being included in the Reserve Requirement used in calculating such Eurodollar Rate. The Agent will notify Borrower of any event occurring after the date of this Agreement which will entitle the Bank to compensation pursuant to this Section 13.01(a) as promptly as practicable after it obtains knowledge thereof and determines to request such compensation.

(b) Without limiting the effect of the foregoing provisions of this Section 13.01, in the event that, by reason of any Regulatory Change, the Bank either (i) incurs Additional Costs based on or measured by the excess above a specified level of the amount of a category of deposits or other liabilities of the Bank which includes deposits by reference to which the interest rate on Eurodollar Rate Loans is determined as provided in this Agreement or a category of extensions of credit or other assets of the Bank which includes Eurodollar Rate Loans or (ii) becomes subject to restrictions on the amount of such a category of liabilities or assets which it may hold, then, if the Bank so elects by notice to Borrower, the obligation of the Bank to make or renew, and to convert loans of any other type into, loans of such type hereunder shall be suspended until the date such Regulatory Change ceases to be in effect.

(c) Without limiting the effect of the foregoing provisions of this Section 13.01 (but without duplication), Borrower shall pay directly to the Agent from time to time within five (5) Banking Days after request, such amounts as the Agent may determine to be necessary to compensate any Bank for any costs which it determines are attributable to the maintenance by it or any of its affiliates pursuant to any Regulatory Change of any court or governmental or monetary authority of capital in respect of its loans hereunder or its obligation to make loans hereunder (such compensation to include, without limitation, an amount equal to any reduction in return on assets or equity of the Bank to a level below that which it could have achieved but for such Regulatory Change), except to the extent the Eurodollar Base Rate has been adjusted to reflect such costs. The Agent will notify Borrower if any Bank is entitled to compensation pursuant to this Section 13.01(c) as promptly as practicable after it determines to request such compensation.

(d) Determinations and allocations by the Agent or Bank for purposes of this Section 13.01 of the effect of any Regulatory Change pursuant to subsections (a) or (b), or of the effect of capital maintained pursuant to subsection (c), on its costs of making or maintaining loans or its obligation to make loans, or on amounts receivable by, or the rate of return to, it in respect of loans or such obligation, and of the additional amounts required to compensate the Bank under this Section 13.01, shall be conclusive, provided that, such determinations and allocations are made on a reasonable basis and absent manifest error and having a retroactive effect of no more than one hundred twenty (120) days.

Section 13.02 Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, in the event that it becomes unlawful for a Bank to (a) honor its obligation to make or renew Eurodollar Rate Loans hereunder or convert loans of any type into loans of such type, or (b) maintain Eurodollar Rate Loans hereunder, then the Bank shall promptly notify Borrower thereof and the Bank’s obligation to make or renew Eurodollar Rate Loans and to convert other types of loans into loans of such type hereunder shall be suspended until such time as the Bank may again make, renew, or convert and maintain such affected loans and the Bank’s outstanding Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be converted to Prime Rate Loans at the end of the then current Interest Period unless earlier required by law.

Section 13.03 Certain Compensation. Borrower shall pay to the Agent, upon the request of the Agent, such amount or amounts as shall be sufficient (in the reasonable opinion of the Agent) to compensate any Bank for any loss, cost or expense which the Bank determines is attributable to:

(a) any payment or prepayment of a Eurodollar Rate Loan made by the Bank on a date other than the last day of an Interest Period for such Loan (whether by reason of acceleration or otherwise); or

(b) any failure by Borrower to borrow a Eurodollar Rate Loan to be made by the Bank on the date specified therefor in the relevant notice.

Without limiting the foregoing, such compensation shall include an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which otherwise would have accrued on the principal amount so paid, prepaid or not borrowed for the period from and including the date of such payment, prepayment or failure to borrow to but excluding the last day of the then current Interest Period for such Loan (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, to but excluding the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan which would have commenced on the date specified therefor in the relevant notice) at the applicable rate of interest for such Loan provided for herein; over (ii) the amount of interest (as reasonably determined by the Bank) the Bank would have bid in the London interbank market for Dollar deposits for amounts comparable to such principal amount and maturities comparable to such period. A determination of the Bank as to the amounts payable pursuant to this Section 13.03 shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

Section 13.04 Substitution of Banks.

No failure on the part of the Agent or any Bank to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof or preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. The remedies herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by Law.

Section 14.02 Usury. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the obligations of Borrower and the Guarantors under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be subject to the limitation that payments of interest shall not be required to the extent that receipt thereof would be contrary to provisions of Law applicable to a Bank limiting rates of interest which may be charged or collected by such Bank.

Section 14.03 Expenses; Indemnification. Borrower agrees to reimburse the Agent, Collateral Monitor and each of the Banks, on demand for all costs, expenses, and charges (including, without limitation, all reasonable fees and charges of external legal counsel for the Agent, Collateral Monitor, HSBC and each Bank) incurred by Agent, Collateral Monitor, or any Bank, in connection with the preparation of the Loan Documents. Borrower agrees to reimburse the Agent, Collateral Monitor, each Letter of Credit Issuing Bank, and each of the Banks on demand for all costs, expenses, and charges (including, without limitation, all fees and charges of external legal counsel for the Agent, Collateral Monitor, and each Bank) incurred by the Agent, Collateral Monitor, or any Bank in connection with the performance, or enforcement of this Agreement, the Notes, or any other Loan Documents. Borrower agrees to indemnify the Agent, Collateral Monitor, each Letter of Credit Issuing Bank and each Bank and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents (collectively, the “Indemnified Persons), from, and hold each of them harmless against, any and all losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses incurred by any of them arising out of or by reason of any investigation or litigation or other proceedings (including any threatened investigation or litigation or other proceedings) relating to any actual or proposed use by Borrower of the proceeds of the Revolving Credit Loans or the Letters of Credit or to any violation or alleged violation of any Environmental Law by Borrower or any Guarantor, including without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel incurred in connection with any such investigation or litigation or other proceedings (but excluding any such losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses incurred by reason of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of any Indemnified Person or any other Indemnified Person of which such Indemnified Person is an affiliate or agent, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment).

The obligations of Borrower under this Section 14.03 shall survive the repayment of the Obligations and all amounts due under or in connection with any of the Loan Documents and the termination of the Revolving Credit Commitment.

Section 14.04 Assignment; Participation; Additional Bank.

(a) This Agreement shall be binding upon, and shall inure to the benefit of, Borrower, the Guarantors, the Agent, the Letter of Credit Issuing Bank and their respective successors and permitted assigns. No Borrower or Guarantor may assign or transfer its rights or obligations hereunder (and any attempted assignment or transfer by the Borrower or any Subsidiary signatory hereto without such consent shall be null and void). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto) and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of the Letter of Credit Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

(b) Any Bank may assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Revolving Credit Commitment and the Revolving Credit Loans and other Obligations at the time owing to it); provided that (i) except in the case of an assignment to a Bank or an Affiliate of a Bank, each of the Borrower and the Agent must give their prior written consent to such assignment (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), (ii) except in the case of an assignment to a Bank or an Affiliate of a Bank or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Bank’s Revolving Credit Commitment, the amount of the Revolving Credit Commitment of the assigning Bank subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Agent) shall not be less than Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000) unless each of the Borrower and the Agent otherwise consent, (iii) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Bank’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, (iv) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Agent an Assignment and Acceptance, together with a processing and recordation fee of Three Thousand Five Hundred Dollars ($3,500), and (v) the assignee, if it shall not be a Bank, shall deliver to the Agent an administrative questionnaire in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Agent; and provided further that any consent of the Borrower otherwise required under this paragraph shall not be required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (d) of this Section 14.04, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Bank under this Agreement, and the assigning Bank thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all of the assigning Bank’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Bank shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Article XIII hereof and Section14.03 hereof). Any assignment or transfer by a Bank of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this paragraph shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Bank of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (e) of this Section 14.04.

(c) The Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices in the City of New York a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Bank’s, and the Revolving Credit Commitment of, and principal amount of the Obligations owing to, each Bank pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Borrower, the Agent, the Letter of Credit Issuing Bank and the Banks may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Bank hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower, the Agent and any Bank, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(d) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Bank and an assignee, the assignee’s completed administrative questionnaire (unless the assignee shall already be a Bank hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section 14.04 and any written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section 14.04, the Agent shall accept such Assignment and Acceptance and record the information contained therein in the Register. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph.

(e) Any Bank may at any time grant to one or more banks or other institutions (each a “Participant”) participating interests in its portion of the Revolving Credit Loans and the Participation. In the event of any such grant by a Bank of a participating interest to a Participant, such Bank shall remain responsible for the performance of its obligations hereunder, and Borrower and the Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Bank in connection with such Bank’s rights and obligations hereunder. Any agreement pursuant to which any Bank may grant such a participating interest shall provide that such Bank shall retain the sole right and responsibility to enforce the obligations of Borrower and the Guarantors hereunder and under any other Loan Document including, without limitation, the right to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document; provided that, such participation agreement may provide that such Bank will not agree to any modification, amendment or waiver of this Agreement that would require the consent of all Banks under Sections 14.01 (a) through (g) hereof without the consent of the Participant.

(f) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Article XIII hereof than the applicable Bank would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent. If a Participant is a Foreign Bank such Participant shall, for the benefit of the Borrower, comply with Section 12.13 hereof as though it were a Bank.

(g) Any Bank may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Bank, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section 14.04(g) shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Bank from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Bank as a party hereto.

(h) If any Bank (such Bank, a “Non-Consenting Bank”) has failed to consent to a proposed amendment, waiver, discharge or termination which pursuant to the terms of Section 14.01 hereof requires the consent of all of the Banks affected and with respect to which the Required Banks shall have granted their consent, then the Borrower shall have the right (unless such Non-Consenting Bank grants such consent) to replace such Non-Consenting Bank by requiring such Non-Consenting Bank to promptly assign, without recourse, its Loans and its portion of the Revolving Credit Commitment hereunder to one or more assignees reasonably acceptable to the Agent that shall consent to such proposed amendment, waiver, discharge or termination, provided that: (a) all Obligations of the Borrower owing to such Non-Consenting Bank being replaced shall be paid in full to such Non-Consenting Bank concurrently with such assignment, (b) the replacement Bank shall purchase the foregoing by paying to such Non-Consenting Bank a price equal to the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon and (c) the replacement Bank shall pay the processing and recordation fee referred to in Section 14.04(b) hereof. In connection with any such assignment the Borrower, Agent, such Non-Consenting Bank and the replacement Bank shall otherwise comply with Section 14.01 hereof

Section 14.05 Notices. Unless the party to be notified otherwise notifies the other party in writing as provided in this Section 14.05, and except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, notices shall be given to the Agent by telephone, confirmed by telex, telecopy or other writing, and to the Banks and to Borrower by ordinary mail, telecopy or telex addressed to such party at its address on the signature page of this Agreement. Copies of notices mailed to Borrower should also be mailed by ordinary mail to Willkie, Xxxx & Xxxxxxxxx LLP, 000 Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, XX 00000, Attention: Xxxxxx X. Xxxxx, counsel to Borrower. Notices shall be effective: (a) if given by mail upon receipt; and (b) if given by telex, when the telex is transmitted to the telex number as aforesaid; provided that, notices to the Agent, and the Banks shall be effective upon receipt.

Section 14.06 Setoff; Sharing. Borrower agrees that, in addition to, and without limitation of any right of setoff, bankers’ lien or counterclaim a Bank may otherwise have, each Bank shall be entitled, at its option, to offset balances (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) held by it for the account of Borrower at any of such Bank’s offices, in Dollars or in any other currency, against any amount payable by Borrower to such Bank under this Agreement or such Bank’s Note, or any other Loan Document which is not paid when due (regardless of whether such balances are then due to Borrower), in which case it shall promptly notify Borrower and the Agent thereof; provided that, such Bank’s failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity thereof. Each Bank agrees that to the extent any such payment is received by it as the result of a set-off or otherwise and such payment results in such Bank receiving a greater payment than it would have been entitled to, had the total amount of such payment been paid directly to the Agent for disbursement to the Banks, then such Bank shall immediately purchase for cash from the other Banks participations in the loans sufficient in amount so that such payment shall effectively be shared pro rata with the other Banks in accordance with the amount, and to the extent, of their respective interests in all the Revolving Credit Loans; provided however, that if all or any portion of such payment is thereafter recovered from such Bank at any time, the purchase shall be rescinded and the purchase price returned to the extent of such recovery, but without interest or other return thereof.

Section 14.07 Jurisdiction; Immunities. Borrower and each Guarantor hereby irrevocably submit to the jurisdiction of any New York State or United States Federal court sitting in New York City over any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the Notes, the Letters of Credit, or any other Loan Document, and Borrower and each Guarantor hereby irrevocably agree that all claims in respect of such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State or Federal court. Borrower and each Guarantor irrevocably consent to the service of any and all process in any such action or proceeding by the mailing of copies of such process to Borrower and each Guarantor at their respective addresses specified in Section 14.05 hereof. Borrower and each Guarantor agree that a final non-appealable judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Borrower and each Guarantor further waive any objection to venue in such State and any objection to an action or proceeding in such State on the basis of forum non conveniens. Borrower and each Guarantor agree that any action or proceeding brought against the Agent or any Bank shall be brought only in New York State or United States Federal Court sitting in New York County.

Nothing in this Section 14.07 hereof shall affect the right of the Agent or any Bank to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by law or affect the right of the Agent or any Bank to bring any action or proceeding against any of Borrower or any Guarantor or their property in the courts of any other jurisdictions.

To the extent that Borrower or any Guarantor has or hereafter may acquire any immunity from jurisdiction of any court or from any legal process (whether from service or notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution, execution or otherwise) with respect to itself or its property, Borrower and each Guarantor hereby irrevocably waive such immunity in respect of its obligations under this Agreement, the Notes, and any other Loan Document.

Section 14.08 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York applicable to agreements made and to be performed entirely within such State.

Section 14.09 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed by the parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which, when so executed and delivered, shall be an original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same instrument. Each counterpart may consist of a number of copies hereof, each signed by less than all, but together signed by all of the parties hereto.

Section 14.10 Exhibits and Schedules. The Exhibits and Schedules are a part of this Agreement as if fully set forth herein.

Section 14.11 Table of Contents; Headings. The headings in the Table of Contents and in this Agreement are for reference only, and shall not affect the interpretation or construction of this Agreement.

If any word, phrase, sentence, paragraph, provision or section of this Agreement shall be held, declared, pronounced or rendered invalid, void, unenforceable or inoperative for any reason by any court of competent jurisdiction, governmental authority, statute or otherwise, such holding, declaration, pronouncement or rendering shall not adversely affect any other word, phrase, sentence, paragraph, provision or section of this Agreement, which shall otherwise remain in full force and effect and be enforced in accordance with its terms.

Section 14.13 Integration; Conflicts. The Loan Documents set forth the entire agreement among the parties hereto relating to the transactions contemplated thereby and supersede any prior oral or written statements or agreements with respect to such transactions. Any conflicts between the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and any other Loan Document shall be governed by this Agreement.

Section 14.14 Jury Trial Waiver. The Agent, the Banks, Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries each waive any right it may have to a jury trial in any action or proceeding which pertains directly or indirectly to this Agreement, the Obligations, the Collateral or, in any way, directly or indirectly, arises out of or relates to the relationship between or among Borrower, the Restricted Subsidiaries, the Agent and the Banks.

Section 14.15 HSBC. Notwithstanding the definition of the name “HSBC” and notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, no obligations of HSBC Bank USA, National Association as Agent or HSBC Bank USA, National Association as Letter of Credit Issuing Bank may be delegated to any Affiliate of HSBC Bank USA, National Association (other than in compliance with Section 3.12) unless such Affiliate is either HSBC Business Credit (USA) Inc. or has the same or better credit rating as HSBC Bank USA, National Association based on the credit rating assigned by Xxxxx’x Investors Service, Inc. or Standard & Poor’s Ratings Group (a division of The McGraw Hill Companies, Inc.) (or any successor or assignee of the business of each such company in the business of rating securities credit rating).

Section 14.16 USA PATRIOT Act Notice. Each Bank that is subject to the Act (as hereinafter defined) 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 “Patriot Act”), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each of the Borrower, the Guarantors and the Letter of Credit Account Parties, which information includes the name and address of each Loan Party and other information that will allow such Bank to identify each of the Borrower, the Guarantors and the Letter of Credit Account Parties in accordance with the Act.

LITIGATION

Dispute with former Officers Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxx and Xxxxx Xxxxx – On March 7, 2008, the Company filed a complaint in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware for the County of New Castle (the “Court”), against Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxx, and Xxxxx Xxxxx. The complaint asserted claims against Messrs. Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxx, and Xxxxx for breach of fiduciary duty, gross mismanagement, corporate waste, unjust enrichment, common law fraud and, as to Xx. Xxxxxxx, common law conversion. The Company and Xx. Xxxxxxx settled the claims that each had against the other pursuant to an agreement executed on August 4, 2008. On September 10, 2008 and September 19, 2008, Xx. Xxxxxxx and Xx. Xxxxx, respectively, filed additional answers with respect to the claims the Company made against them, as well as counterclaims against the Company. Messrs. Xxxxxxx and Xxxxx denied the Company’s claims and asserted claims against the Company for, among other things, certain compensation and benefits related to the termination of their employment with the Company and defamation and other damages allegedly stemming from the Company’s issuance of certain press releases related to the Audit Committee Investigation. On September 22, 2008, Xx. Xxxxxxx filed an additional complaint against certain of the Company’s directors and officers asserting claims for, among other things, contribution in the event that Xx. Xxxxxxx is found liable to the Company for damages in relation to the Company’s complaint against him and defamation and other damages allegedly stemming from the Company’s issuance of certain press releases related to the Audit Committee Investigation. Substantial discovery in the litigation has been completed. On June 12, 2009, the Company and its directors and officers that are parties to the litigation filed a motion for summary judgment. The motion seeks a grant of summary judgment in favor of the Company on certain of its claims against Messrs. Xxxxxxx and Xxxxx, including its claim for breach of fiduciary duty. It also seeks the dismissal of certain of Messrs. Xxxxxxx’x and Xxxxx’x counterclaims against the Company, as well as certain aspects of Xx. Xxxxxxx’x complaint against the Company’s directors and officers that are parties to the litigation. Oral argument on the Company’s motion for summary judgment is scheduled for September 2, 2009, and a trial is currently scheduled for late October 2009.

NAF - On February 23, 2009, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with NAF Holdings II, LLC (“NAF”) and NAF Acquisition Corp. pursuant to which, subject to certain conditions, the Company would be merged with and into NAF Acquisition Corp. and would survive the merger as the wholly owed subsidiary of NAF (the “Merger Agreement”). The Merger Agreement was subsequently amended on April 20, 2009. On April 26, 2009, the Company received a letter from NAF indicating that NAF was terminating the Merger Agreement for one or more alleged breaches of the Merger Agreement by the Company. On April 27, 2009, the Company responded by stating that it did not believe that it was in breach of the Merger Agreement and that no circumstances existed which would allow NAF to terminate the Merger Agreement. The Company further stated that it was terminating the Merger Agreement. On July 14, 2009, counsel to the Company received a letter from counsel to NAF indicating that NAF contemplated a civil litigation concerning alleged fraudulent and otherwise improper conduct of the Company and its agents with respect to the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement and the termination thereof.

Prior to 2003, the Company was advised that certain of its suppliers would not be able to deliver finished product as agreed. In connection with this situation, the Company established a reserve in the amount of $7.5 million during 2002 for costs of past inventory purchases which had not yet been paid to the supplier and other matters arising from these events and has accordingly adjusted the reserve for ongoing activity. The reserve balance was $5.1 million at June 27, 2009 for such unresolved matters. The Company has bonus agreements with certain members of current and former management which are contingent upon the release of the aforementioned reserve established for past inventory purchases. If the Company determines that this reserve is no longer needed and is released, the bonus payments could be as much as $0.4 million.

The Borrower is from time to time involved in other litigation incidental to the conduct of its business, none of which is expected to be material to its business, financial condition, or operations.
