(a) During the Revolving Commitment Period, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Credit Agreement, the Swing Line Lender agrees to make Swing Line Loans to the Borrower as the Borrower may from time to time request for the purposes permitted hereby; provided, however, that (i) the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Swing Line Loans shall not exceed the Swing Line Sublimit, (ii) the Loans of each Lender shall not exceed such Lender’s Revolving Commitment and (iii) the Loans of all Lenders shall not exceed the Aggregate Revolving Committed Amount at any time. This is a revolving credit and, subject to the foregoing and the other terms and conditions hereof, the Borrower may borrow, prepay and reborrow Swing Line Loans as set forth herein without premium or penalty; provided, however, that Swing Line Lender may terminate or suspend the Swing Line at any time in its sole discretion upon notice to the Borrower. Each Swing Line Loan shall bear interest at a rate equal to the rate applicable to the Prime Rate Loans or at a rate quoted by the Agent and agreed to by the Borrower.

(b) Unless notified to the contrary by Swing Line Lender, the Borrower may irrevocably request a Swing Line Loan upon notice to the Swing Line Lender. There is no minimum borrowing amount for a Swing Line Loan. Each such request for a Swing Line Loan shall constitute a representation and warranty by the Borrower that the conditions set forth in Section 5.2 are satisfied. Promptly after receipt of such request, the Swing Line Lender shall obtain telephonic verification from the Agent that such Swing Line Loan is permitted hereunder. Upon receiving such verification, the Swing Line Lender shall make such Swing Line Loan available to the Borrower. Without the consent of Required Lenders and the Swing Line Lender, no Swing Line Loan shall be made during the continuation of a Default or Event of Default. Upon the making of each Swing Line Loan, each Lender shall be deemed to have purchased from the Swing Line Lender a risk participation therein in an amount equal to that Lender’s Commitment Percentage times the amount of the Swing Line Loan.

(c) Each Swing Line Loan shall bear interest at a fluctuating rate per annum equal to the rate of interest payable on Prime Rate Loans or at the rate quoted by the Agent and agreed to by the Borrower and interest shall be payable upon demand of the Swing Line Lender, on the last day of each month and on the Revolving Termination Date. The Swing Line Lender shall be responsible for invoicing the Borrower (or notifying the Agent to so invoice the Borrower) for such interest. The interest payable on Swing Line Loans is solely for the account of the Swing Line Lender, except following any funding of a risk participation under clause (f) below.

(d) The Borrower shall repay each Swing Line Loan on the earliest of (i) upon demand made by Swing Line Lender and (ii) the Revolving Termination Date. The Borrower shall repay the principal amount of each Swing Line Loan by payment directly to Swing Line Lender or by Swing Line Lender debiting the Borrower’s deposit account at Swing Line Lender not later than 10:00 a.m. (Milwaukee, Wisconsin time) for payments hereunder. If the conditions precedent set forth in Section 5.2 can be satisfied, the Borrower may request a Revolving Loan to repay Swing Line Lender, or, failing to make such request, the Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Revolving Loan of Prime Rate Loans on such payment date pursuant to subsection (f) below. Swing Line Lender shall promptly notify the Agent of each Swing Line Loan and each payment thereof.

(e) If the Borrower fails to timely make any principal or interest payment on any Swing Line Loan, Swing Line Lender shall notify the Agent of such fact and the unpaid amount. The Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of its pro rata share of such amount by 11:00 a.m. (Milwaukee, Wisconsin time). Each Lender shall make funds in an amount equal to its pro rata share of such amount available to the Agent at the Agent’s payment office not later than the 2:00 p.m. (Milwaukee, Wisconsin time) for payments hereunder on the same Business Day. The obligation of each Lender to make such payment shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by the occurrence of an Event of Default or any other occurrence or event. Any such payment shall not relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the Borrower to repay the Swing Line Lender for any amount of Swing Line Loans, together with interest as provided herein.

(f) If the conditions precedent set forth in Section 5.2 can be satisfied on any date the Borrower is obligated to, but fails to, repay a Swing Line Loan, the funding by Lenders pursuant to the previous subsection shall be deemed to be a borrowing of Prime Rate Loans (without regard to the minimum amount therefor) deemed requested by the Borrower. If the conditions precedent set forth in Section 5.2 cannot be satisfied on the date the Borrower is obligated to make, but fails to make, such payment, the funding by Lenders pursuant to the previous subsection shall be deemed to be a funding by each Lender of its participation in such Swing Line Loan, and each Lender making such funding shall thereupon acquire a pro rata participation, to the extent of its payment, in the claim of Swing Line Lender against the Borrower in respect of such payment and shall share, in accordance with that pro rata participation, in any payment made by the Borrower with respect to such claim. Any amounts made available by a Lender under its risk participation shall be payable by the Borrower upon demand of the Agent, and shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Prime Rate plus 2% per annum.

2.3 Increase of Commitments; Additional Lenders.

(a) So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, from time to time after the Closing Date, Borrower may, upon at least 30 days’ written notice to the Agent (who shall promptly provide a copy of such notice to each Lender), propose to increase the Aggregate Revolving Committed Amount by an aggregate amount of incremental commitments not to exceed $200,000,000 (the amount of any such increase, the “Additional Commitment Amount”), through the addition of new lenders (or increases of commitments by existing Lenders), provided that any such new lenders are reasonably acceptable to the Agent, the Syndication Agent, and the Borrower. Each Lender shall have the right for a period of 10 days following receipt of such notice, to elect by written notice to the Borrower and the Agent to increase its Revolving Commitment by a principal amount up to its Revolving Commitment Percentage of the Additional Commitment Amount. No Lender (or any successor thereto) shall have any obligation to increase its Revolving Commitment or its other obligations under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, and any decision by a Lender to increase its Revolving Commitment shall be made in its sole discretion independently from any other Lender.

(b) If any Lender shall not elect to increase its Revolving Commitment pursuant to subsection (a) of this Section 2.3, the Borrower may designate another bank or other financial institution (which may be, but need not be, one or more of the existing Lenders) which at the time agrees to, in the case of any such Person that is an existing Lender, increase its Revolving Commitment and in the case of any other such Person (an “Additional Lender”), become a party to this Agreement; provided, however, that any new bank or financial institution must be acceptable to the Agent, which acceptance will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. The sum of the increases in the Revolving Commitments of the existing Lenders pursuant to this subsection (b) plus the Revolving Commitments of the Additional Lenders shall not in the aggregate exceed the unsubscribed amount of the Additional Commitment Amount.

(c) An increase in the aggregate amount of the Revolving Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.3 shall become effective upon the receipt by the Agent of a supplement or joinder in form and substance satisfactory to the Agent executed by the Borrower, by each Additional Lender and by each other Lender whose Revolving Commitment is to be increased, setting forth the new Revolving Commitments of such Lenders and setting forth the agreement of each Additional Lender to become a party to this Agreement and to be bound by all the terms and provisions hereof, together with Notes evidencing such increase in the Commitments, and such evidence of appropriate corporate authorization on the part of the Borrower with respect to the increase in the Revolving Commitments and such opinions of counsel for the Borrower with respect to the increase in the Revolving Commitments as the Agent may reasonably request.

(d) Upon the acceptance of any such supplement or joinder by the Agent, the Aggregate Revolving Committed Amount shall automatically be increased by the amount of the Revolving Commitments added through such supplement or joinder and Schedule 2.1(a) shall automatically be deemed amended to reflect the Revolving Commitments of all Lenders after giving effect to the addition of such Revolving Commitments.

(e) Upon any increase in the aggregate amount of the Revolving Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.3 that is not pro rata among all Lenders, (x) within five Business Days, in the case of any Prime Rate Loans then outstanding, and at the end of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto, in the case of any Eurodollar Loans then outstanding, the Borrower shall prepay such Loans in their entirety and, to the extent the Borrower elects to do so and subject to the conditions specified in Article 5, the Borrower shall reborrow Loans from the Lenders in proportion to their respective Revolving Commitments after giving effect to such increase, until such time as all outstanding Loans are held by the Lenders in proportion to their respective Commitments after giving effect to such increase.

ARTICLE 3

OTHER PROVISIONS RELATING TO CREDIT FACILITIES

3.1 Default Rate. Upon the occurrence, and during the continuance, of an Event of Default, the principal of and, to the extent permitted by law, interest on the Loans, and any other amounts owing hereunder or under the other Credit Documents shall bear interest, payable on demand, at a per annum rate which is equal to the rate which would otherwise be applicable (or if no rate is applicable, whether in respect of interest, fees or other amounts, then the Prime Rate) plus 2%; provided that, for any Eurodollar Rate advances, at the end of the applicable Interest Period, interest shall accrue at the Prime Rate plus 2% per annum.

3.2 Extension and Conversion. The Borrower shall have the option, on any Business Day, to extend existing Loans into a subsequent permissible Interest Period or to convert Loans into Loans of another Type; provided, however, that (i) except as provided in Sections 3.6 and 3.7, Eurodollar Loans may be converted into Prime Rate Loans only on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) Eurodollar Loans may be extended, and Prime Rate Loans may be converted into Eurodollar Loans, only if no Default or Event of Default is in existence on the date of extension or conversion, (iii) Loans extended as, or converted into, Eurodollar Loans shall be subject to the terms of the definition of “Interest Period” set forth in Section 1.1 and shall be in such minimum amounts as provided in Section 2.l(b)(ii) and (iv) any request for extension or conversion of a Eurodollar Loan which shall fail to specify an Interest Period shall be deemed to be a request for an Interest Period of one month. Each such extension or conversion shall be effected by the Borrower by giving a Notice of Extension/Conversion in the form of Exhibit 3.2 (or telephone notice promptly confirmed in writing) to the Agent prior to 10:30 A.M. (Milwaukee, Wisconsin time) on the Business Day of, in the case of the conversion of a Eurodollar Loan into a Prime Rate Loan and on the second Business Day prior to, in the case of the extension of a Eurodollar Loan as, or conversion of a Prime Rate Loan into, a Eurodollar Loan, the date of the proposed extension or conversion, specifying the date of the proposed extension or conversion, the Loans to be so extended or converted, the Types of Loans into which such Loans are to be converted and, if appropriate, the applicable Interest Periods with respect thereto. Each request for extension or conversion shall constitute a representation and warranty by the Borrower of the matters specified in paragraphs (a) and (b), and in (c) or (d), of Section 5.2. In the event the Borrower fails to request extension or conversion of any Eurodollar Loan in accordance with this Section, or any such conversion or extension is not permitted or required by this Section, then such Loans shall be automatically converted into Prime Rate Loans at the end of their Interest Period. The Agent shall give each Lender notice as promptly as practicable of any such proposed extension or conversion affecting any Loan.

3.3 Reductions in Commitments and Prepayments.

(a) Reductions in Revolving Commitment. The Borrower may from time to time permanently reduce the Aggregate Revolving Committed Amount in whole or in part without premium or penalty except as provided in Section 3.10 upon three (3) Business Days’ prior written notice to the Agent; provided that after giving effect to any such voluntary reduction the sum of Revolving Loans plus Swing Line Loans then outstanding shall not exceed the Aggregate Revolving Committed Amount, as reduced. Except as otherwise specified herein, partial reductions in the Aggregate Revolving Committed Amount shall in each case be in a minimum aggregate amount of $5,000,000 and integral multiples of $500,000 in excess thereof.

(b) Mandatory Prepayment on Revolving Loans. If at any time the aggregate amount of all outstanding Revolving Loans plus the aggregate amount of all outstanding Swing Line Loans shall exceed the Aggregate Revolving Committed Amount, as reduced from time to time, the Borrower shall immediately make payment on the Swing Line Loans and then, if necessary, on the Revolving Loans in an amount sufficient to eliminate the deficiency. Any such payments shall be applied first to Prime Rate Loans and then to Eurodollar Loans in direct order of their Interest Period maturities.

(c) Voluntary Prepayments. Loans may be prepaid in whole or in part without premium or penalty except as provided in Section 3.10. Any partial prepayment shall be (i) if a Prime Rate Loan, in a minimum aggregate amount of $250,000 and integral multiples of $100,000 in excess thereof; and (ii) if a Eurodollar Loan, in a minimum aggregate amount of $2,500,000 and integral multiples of $500,000 in excess thereof (or, in either case, the remaining outstanding principal balance of the Revolving Loans). Except as otherwise specified herein, amounts prepaid on the Revolving Loans may be reborrowed in accordance with the provisions hereof.

3.4 Fees.

(a) Upfront Fee. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, the upfront fee (the “Upfront Fee”) referred to in that certain Lenders’ fee letter of even date herewith. The Upfront Fee shall be earned and payable as set forth in such letter.

(b) Unused Facility Fee. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Lenders, an unused facility fee (the “Unused Facility Fee”) in an amount equal to the product of (i) the average daily unused portion of the Revolving Committed Amount, as the same may be reduced from time to time hereunder, (computed on a quarterly basis in arrears as of the last day of each June, September, December and March commencing on the last day of the calendar quarter during which the Closing Date occurs, based upon the daily utilization for that quarter as calculated by the Agent) multiplied by (ii) the Applicable Percentage divided by four. The Unused Facility Fee shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears on the last day of each June, September, December and March commencing on the last day of the calendar quarter during which the Closing Date occurs, through the Revolving Termination Date (provided, that if the last day of any such quarter is not a Business Day, then such payment shall be due on the first Business Day thereafter). The Unused Facility Fee shall be fully earned and payable on each such payment date. For purposes of computing the Unused Facility Fee under this subsection 3.4(b), usage of the Swing Line Sublimit shall not be considered usage of the Revolving Committed Amount.

(c) Other Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Agent such other closing, administrative and structuring fees referred to in that certain Agent’s fee letter of even date herewith.

3.5 Capital Adequacy. If any Lender has reasonably determined that the adoption or effectiveness of any applicable law, rule or regulation regarding capital adequacy made after the date hereof, or any change therein made after the date hereof, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof made after the date hereof, or compliance by such Lender or its parent company with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency made after the date hereof, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or its parent company’s capital or assets as a consequence of its commitments or obligations hereunder to a level below that which such Lender could have achieved but for such adoption, effectiveness, change or compliance (taking into consideration the policies of such Lender and its parent company with respect to capital adequacy), then, within 10 Business Days after the Borrower’s receipt of the certificate referred to in the next sentence, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender and its parent company for such reduction; provided that no such amounts shall be payable with respect to reduction in rate of return incurred more than three (3) months before such Lender demands compensation under this Section 3.5. A certificate as to the amount of such reduction in rate of return, the good faith basis therefor and setting forth in reasonable detail the calculations used by the applicable Lender to arrive at the amount or amounts claimed to be due, shall be submitted to the Borrower and the Agent. Each determination by a Lender of amounts owing under this Section shall be rebuttably presumptive evidence of the matters set forth therein. No demand for payment under this Section shall be made unless the Lender shall make comparable demands of other similarly situated borrowers. The provisions of this Section shall survive termination of this Credit Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

3.6 Inability To Determine Interest Rate. If prior to the first day of any Interest Period, the Agent shall have reasonably determined (which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon the Borrower) that, by reason of circumstances affecting the relevant market, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Eurodollar Rate for such Interest Period, the Agent shall give telecopy or telephonic notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders as soon as practicable thereafter. If such notice is given (a) any Eurodollar Loans requested to be made on the first day of such Interest Period shall be made as Prime Rate Loans, (b) any Loans that were to have been converted on the first day of such Interest Period to or continued as Eurodollar Loans shall be converted to or continued as Prime Rate Loans and (c) any outstanding Eurodollar Loans shall be converted, on the first day of such Interest Period, to Prime Rate Loans. Until such notice has been withdrawn by the Agent, no further Eurodollar Loans shall be made or continued as such, nor shall the Borrower have the right to convert Prime Rate Loans to Eurodollar Loans.

3.7 Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision herein, if the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or application thereof occurring after the Closing Date shall make it unlawful for any Lender to make or maintain Eurodollar Loans as contemplated by this Credit Agreement, (a) such Lender shall promptly give written notice of such circumstances to the Borrower and the Agent (which notice shall be withdrawn whenever such circumstances no longer exist), (b) the commitment of such Lender hereunder to make Eurodollar Loans, continue Eurodollar Loans as such and convert a Prime Rate Loan to Eurodollar Loans shall forthwith be canceled and, until such time as it shall no longer be unlawful for such Lender to make or maintain Eurodollar Loans, such Lender shall then have a commitment only to make a Prime Rate Loan when a Eurodollar Loan is requested and (c) such Lender’s Loans then outstanding as Eurodollar Loans, if any, shall be converted automatically to Prime Rate Loans on the respective last days of the then current Interest Periods with respect to such Loans or within such earlier period as required by law. If any such conversion of a Eurodollar Loan occurs on a day which is not the last day of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such amounts, if any, as may be required pursuant to Section 3.10.

3.8 Requirements of Law. If the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or application thereof applicable to any Lender, or compliance by any Lender with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any central bank or other Governmental Authority, in each case made subsequent to the Closing Date (or, if later, the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender):

(a) (shall subject such Lender to any tax of any kind whatsoever on or in respect of any Eurodollar Loans made by it or its obligation to make Eurodollar Loans, or change the basis of taxation of payments to such Lender in respect thereof except for Non-Excluded Taxes covered by Section 3.9 (including Non-Excluded Taxes imposed solely by reason of any failure of such Lender to comply with its obligations under Section 3.9(b)) and changes in taxes measured by or imposed upon the overall net income, or franchise tax (imposed in lieu of such net income tax), of such Lender or any branch or Affiliate thereof); or

(b) shall impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan or similar condition or requirement against assets held by, deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances, loans or other extensions of credit by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of such Lender which is not otherwise included in the determination of the Eurodollar Rate hereunder;

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender, by an amount which such Lender deems to be material, of making, converting into, continuing or maintaining Eurodollar Loans, or to reduce any amount receivable hereunder in respect thereof, then, in any such case, upon notice to the Borrower from such Lender, through the Agent, in accordance herewith, the Borrower shall promptly pay such Lender, upon its demand, any additional amounts necessary to compensate such Lender for such increased cost or reduced amount receivable, provided that, in any such case, the Borrower may elect to convert the Eurodollar Loans made by such Lender hereunder to Prime Rate Loans by giving the Agent at least one Business Day’s notice of such election, in which case the Borrower shall promptly pay to such Lender, upon demand, without duplication, such amounts, if any, as may be required pursuant to Section 3.10. If any Lender becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this subsection, it shall provide prompt notice thereof to the Borrower, through the Agent, certifying (a) that one of the events described in this Section 3.8 has occurred and describing in reasonable detail the nature of such event, (b) as to the increased cost or reduced amount resulting from such event and (c) as to the additional amount demanded by such Lender and a reasonably detailed explanation of the calculation thereof. Such a certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to this subsection shall be submitted by such Lender, through the Agent, to the Borrower and shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. No demand for payment under this Section shall be made unless the Lender shall make comparable demands of other similarly situated borrowers. This covenant shall survive the termination of this Credit Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

3.9 Taxes.

(a) Except as provided below in this subsection, all payments made by the Borrower under this Credit Agreement and any Notes shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any present or future income, stamp or other taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions or withholdings, now or hereafter imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any Governmental Authority, excluding taxes measured by or imposed upon the overall net income of any Lender or any branch or Affiliate thereof, and all franchise taxes, branch taxes, taxes on doing business or taxes on the overall capital or net worth of any Lender, or any branch or Affiliate thereof, in each case imposed in lieu of net income taxes, imposed: (i) by the jurisdiction under the laws of which such Lender, branch or Affiliate is organized or is located, or in which its principal executive office is located, or any nation within which such jurisdiction is located or any political subdivision thereof; or (ii) by reason of any connection between the jurisdiction imposing such tax and such Lender, branch or Affiliate other than a connection arising solely from such Lender having executed, delivered or performed its obligations, or received payment under or enforced, this Credit Agreement or any Notes. If any such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions or withholdings (“Non-Excluded Taxes”) are required to be withheld from any amounts payable to the Agent or any Lender hereunder or under any Notes, (A) the amounts so payable to the Agent or such Lender shall be increased to the extent necessary to yield to the Agent or such Lender (after payment of all Non-Excluded Taxes) interest or any such other amounts payable hereunder at the rates or in the amounts specified in this Credit Agreement and any Notes, provided, however, that the Borrower shall be entitled to deduct and withhold any Non-Excluded Taxes and shall not be required to increase any such amounts payable to any Lender that is not organized under the laws of the United States of America or a state thereof if such Lender fails to comply with the requirements of paragraph (b) of this subsection whenever any Non-Excluded Taxes are payable by the Borrower, and (B) as promptly as possible thereafter the Borrower shall send to the Agent for its own account or for the account of such Lender, as the case may be, a certified copy of an original official receipt received by the Borrower showing payment thereof. If the Borrower fails to pay any Non-Excluded Taxes when due to the appropriate taxing authority or fails to remit to the Agent the required receipts or other required documentary evidence, the Borrower shall indemnify the Agent and the Lenders for any incremental taxes, interest or penalties that may become payable by the Agent or any Lender as a result of any such failure. The agreements in this subsection shall survive the termination of this Credit Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

(b) At least five Business Days prior to the first day on which interest or Fees are payable hereunder for the account of any Lender, each Lender that is not incorporated under the laws of the United States of America, or a state thereof, agrees that it will deliver to each of the Borrower and the Agent two duly completed copies of United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI or W-8BEN, certifying in either case that such Lender is entitled to receive payments under this Agreement and the Notes without deduction or withholding of any United States federal income taxes. Each Lender which so delivers a Form W-8ECI or W-8BEN further undertakes to deliver to each of the Borrower and the Agent two additional copies of such form (or a successor form) on or before the date that such form expires (currently, three successive calendar years) or becomes obsolete or after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent forms so delivered by it, and such amendments thereto or extensions or renewals thereof as may be reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent, in each case certifying that such Lender is entitled to receive payments under this Credit Agreement and the Notes without deduction or withholding of any United States federal income taxes, unless an event (including, without limitation, any change in treaty, law or regulation) has occurred prior to the date on which any such delivery would otherwise be required which renders all such forms inapplicable or which would prevent such Lender from duly completing and delivering any such form with respect to it and such Lender advises the Borrower and the Agent that it is not capable of receiving payments without any deductions or withholding of United States federal income tax.

3.10 Indemnity. The Borrower agrees to indemnify each Lender and to hold each Lender harmless from any loss or expense which such Lender may sustain or incur (other than through such Lender’s gross negligence or willful misconduct) as a consequence of (a) default by the Borrower in making a borrowing of, conversion into or continuation of Eurodollar Loans after the Borrower has given a notice requesting the same in accordance with the provisions of this Credit Agreement, (b) default by the Borrower in making any prepayment of a Eurodollar Loan after the Borrower has given a notice thereof in accordance with the provisions of this Credit Agreement or (c) the making of a prepayment of Eurodollar Loans on a day which is not the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto. Such indemnification may include an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the amount so prepaid, or not so borrowed, converted or continued, for the period from the date of such prepayment or of such failure to borrow, convert or continue to the last day of the applicable Interest Period (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, the Interest Period that would have commenced on the date of such failure) in each case at the applicable rate of interest for such Eurodollar Loans provided for herein over (ii) the amount of interest (as reasonably determined by such Lender) which would have accrued to such Lender on such amount by placing such amount on deposit for a comparable period with leading banks in the interbank Eurodollar market, provided, however, that the amount of such lost interest, if any, shall be discounted to a present value as of the date of the indemnification payment, using as the applicable discount rate(s) the rate(s) of per annum interest used by such Lender in making the computations pursuant to the foregoing clause (ii). Any Lender seeking indemnity under this Section shall furnish a certificate to the Agent and the Borrower setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for such Lender’s indemnity claim. This covenant shall survive the termination of this Credit Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

3.11 Pro Rata Treatment. Except to the extent otherwise provided herein:

(a) Loans. Each Loan, each payment or prepayment of principal of any Loan, each payment of interest on the Loans, each payment of Fees (other than fees payable to the Agent for its own account pursuant to Section 3.4), each reduction of the Revolving Committed Amount, and each conversion or extension of any Loan, shall be allocated pro rata among the Lenders in accordance with the respective Commitment Percentages relating to such respective Loans.

(b) Advances. Unless the Agent shall have been notified in writing by any Lender prior to a borrowing that such Lender will not make the amount that would constitute its Commitment Percentage of such borrowing available to the Agent, the Agent may assume that such Lender is making such amount available to the Agent, and the Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. If such amount is not made available to the Agent by such Lender within the time period specified therefor hereunder, such Lender shall pay to the Agent, on demand, such amount with interest thereon at a rate equal to the Federal Funds Rate for the period until such Lender makes such amount immediately available to the Agent. A certificate of the Agent submitted to any Lender with respect to any amounts owing under this subsection shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. If such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of such borrowing is not made available to the Agent by such Lender within two business Days of the date of the related borrowing, (i) the Agent shall notify the Borrower of the failure of such Lender to make such amount available to the Agent and the Agent shall also be entitled to recover such amount with interest thereon at the rate per annum applicable to Prime Rate Loans hereunder, on demand, from the Borrower and (ii) then the Borrower may, without waiving any rights it may have against such Lender, (x) request any one or more of the Lenders to increase its Commitment Percentage and make such borrowing available, which request each such Lender may in its sole discretion approve or deny, and (y) if any Lender serving as Agent shall deny a request submitted to it pursuant to the foregoing clause (x), borrow a like amount on an unsecured basis from any commercial bank for a period ending on the date upon which such Lender does in fact make such borrowing available; provided, however, that at the time any such replacement borrowing is made and at all times while such amount is outstanding the Borrower would be permitted to borrow such amount pursuant to Section 2.1 of this Credit Agreement.

3.12 Sharing of Payments. The Lenders agree among themselves that, in the event that any Lender shall obtain payment in respect of any Loan or any other obligation owing to such Lender under this Credit Agreement through the exercise of a right of setoff, banker’s lien or counterclaim, or pursuant to a secured claim under Section 506 of Title 11 of the United States Code or other security or interest arising from, or in lieu of, such secured claim, received by such Lender under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law or otherwise, or by any other means, in excess of its pro rata share of such payment as provided for in this Credit Agreement, such Lender shall promptly purchase from the other Lenders a participation in such Loans and other obligations in such amounts, and make such other adjustments from time to time, as shall be equitable to the end that all Lenders share such payment in accordance with their respective ratable shares as provided for in this Credit Agreement. The Lenders further agree among themselves that if payment to a Lender obtained by such Lender through the exercise of a right of setoff, banker’s lien, counterclaim or other event as aforesaid shall be rescinded or must otherwise be restored, each Lender which shall have shared the benefit of such payment shall, by repurchase of a participation theretofore sold, return its share of that benefit (together with its share of any accrued interest payable with respect thereto) to each Lender whose payment shall have been rescinded or otherwise restored. The Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing such a participation may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all rights of payment, including setoff, banker’s lien or counterclaim, with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a holder of such Loan or other obligation in the amount of such participation. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Credit Agreement, if any Lender or the Agent shall fail to remit to the Agent or any other Lender an amount payable by such Lender or the Agent to the Agent or such other Lender pursuant to this Credit Agreement on the date when such amount is due, such payments shall be made together with interest thereon for each date from the date such amount is due until the date such amount is paid to the Agent or such other Lender at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate. If under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law, any Lender receives a secured claim in lieu of a setoff to which this Section 3.12 applies, such Lender shall, to the extent practicable, exercise its rights in respect of such secured claim in a manner consistent with the rights of the Lenders under this Section 3.12 to share in the benefits of any recovery on such secured claim.

3.13 Place and Manner of Payments. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, all payments hereunder shall be made to the Agent in Dollars in immediately available funds, without offset, deduction, counterclaim or withholding of any kind, at its offices at the Agent’s office specified in Schedule 11.2 not later than 1:00 P.M. (Milwaukee, Wisconsin time) on the date when due. Payments received after such time shall be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day. The Agent may, at the Borrower’s request, debit the amount of any such payment which is not made by such time to Account No. 112045887 maintained by the Borrower with the Agent or any other account which may be maintained by the Borrower with the Agent and designated for such purpose by the Borrower. The Borrower shall, at the time it makes any payment under this Credit Agreement, specify to the Agent the Loans, Fees or other amounts payable by the Borrower hereunder to which such payment is to be applied (and in the event that it fails so to specify, or if such application would be inconsistent with the terms hereof, the Agent shall distribute such payment to the Lenders in such manner as the Agent may determine to be appropriate in respect of obligations owing by the Borrower hereunder, subject to the terms of Section 3.11). The Agent will distribute such payments to such Lenders, if any such payment is received prior to 1:00 p.m. (Milwaukee, Wisconsin time) on a Business Day in like funds as received prior to the end of such Business Day and otherwise the Agent will distribute such payment to such Lenders on the next succeeding Business Day. Whenever any payment hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day which is not a Business Day, the due date thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, except that in the case of Eurodollar Loans, if the extension would cause the payment to be made in the next following calendar month, then such payment shall instead be made on the next preceding Business Day. All computations of interest and fees shall be made on the basis of actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360 days except computations of interest on Prime Rate Loans, which shall be made on the basis of actual number of days elapsed over a year of 365 or 366 days, as applicable. Interest shall accrue from and include the date of borrowing, but exclude the date of payment.

3.14 [Reserved]

3.15 Transfers at Borrower’s Request. In the event that any Lender requests payment by the Borrower of any additional amounts pursuant to Section 3.5, 3.7, 3.8 or 3.9, then, provided that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at such time, the Borrower may, at its own expense (such expense to include any transfer fee payable to the Agent under Section 11.6(b)), and in its sole discretion require such Lender to transfer and assign in whole or in part, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the terms and conditions of Section 11.6(b)), all or part of its interests, rights and obligations under this Credit Agreement to an Eligible Transferee which shall assume such assigned obligations; provided that (i) the other Lenders may, by written notice to the Agent, the Lenders and the Borrower, in their respective discretion, elect to assume such Lender’s Revolving Commitment, pro rata based upon the respective Commitment Percentages of the other Lenders so electing to assume such Lender’s Revolving Commitments hereunder, (ii) such Eligible Transferee which is not a Lender shall be reasonably acceptable to the Required Lenders, (iii) such assignment shall not relieve the Borrower from its obligations to pay such additional amounts that may be due in accordance with Section 3.5, 3.7, 3.8 or 3.9, (iv) such assignment shall not conflict with any law, rule or regulation or order of any court or other Governmental Authority and (v) the Borrower or such Eligible Transferee shall have paid to the assigning Lender in immediately available funds the principal of and interest accrued to the date of such payment on the Loans made by it hereunder and all accrued Fees and other amounts owed to it hereunder.

3.16 Effect of Amendment and Restatement Upon this Credit Agreement becoming effective pursuant to Section 5.1, from and after the Closing Date: (a) the Revolving Commitments shall be increased in accordance with the terms hereof; (b) the terms and conditions of the Existing Credit Agreement shall be amended as set forth herein and, as so amended, shall be restated in their entirety, but only with respect to the rights, duties and obligations among Borrower, Lenders and Agent accruing from and after the Closing Date; (c) this Credit Agreement shall not in any way release or impair the rights, duties or Credit Party Obligations created pursuant to the Existing Credit Agreement or any other Credit Document (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement) or affect the relative priorities thereof, in each case to the extent in force and effect thereunder prior to the Closing Date; (d) all indemnification obligations of the Credit Parties under the Existing Credit Agreement or any other Credit Document (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement) which by their terms survive termination shall survive the execution and delivery of this Credit Agreement and shall continue in full force and effect for the benefit of Lenders, Agent, and any other Person indemnified under the Existing Credit Agreement or such other Credit Document at any time prior to the Closing Date; (e) the Credit Party Obligations incurred under the Existing Credit Agreement shall, to the extent outstanding on the Closing Date and owed to a Lender hereunder which was also a lender under the Existing Credit Agreement, continue outstanding under this Credit Agreement and shall not be deemed to be paid, released, discharged or otherwise satisfied by the execution of this Credit Agreement, and this Credit Agreement shall not constitute a refinancing, substitution or novation of such Credit Party Obligations or any of the other rights, duties and obligations of the parties hereunder; (f) any and all references in the Credit Documents to the Existing Credit Agreement shall, without further action of the parties, be deemed a reference to the Existing Credit Agreement, as amended and restated by this Credit Agreement, and as this Credit Agreement shall be further amended or amended and restated from time to time hereafter; and (g) any and all references in the Credit Documents (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement) to the “Closing Date” shall, without further action of the parties, be deemed a reference to the Original Closing Date.

GUARANTY

4.1 The Guaranty. Each of the Credit Parties hereby jointly and severally guarantees to each Lender and the Agent as hereinafter provided the prompt payment of the Credit Party Obligations in full when due (whether at stated maturity, as a mandatory prepayment, by acceleration or otherwise) strictly in accordance with the terms thereof. The Credit Parties hereby further agree that if any of the Credit Party Obligations are not paid in full when due (whether at stated maturity, as a mandatory prepayment, by acceleration or otherwise), the Credit Parties will, jointly and severally, promptly pay the same, without any demand or notice whatsoever, and that in the case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any of the Credit Party Obligations, the same will be promptly paid in full when due (whether at extended maturity, as a mandatory prepayment, by acceleration or otherwise) in accordance with the terms of such extension or renewal.

Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained herein or in any other of the Credit Documents, the guaranty obligations of each Credit Party hereunder shall be limited to an aggregate amount equal to the largest amount that would not render its obligations hereunder subject to avoidance under Section 548 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code or any comparable provisions of any applicable state law.

4.2 Obligations Unconditional. The obligations of the Credit Parties under Section 4.1 hereof are joint and several, absolute and unconditional, irrespective of the value, genuineness, validity or enforceability of any of the Credit Documents, or any other agreement or instrument referred to therein, or any substitution, release or exchange of any other guarantee of or security for any of the Credit Party Obligations, and, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, irrespective of any other circumstance whatsoever which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety or guarantor, it being the intent of this Section 4.2 that the obligations of the Credit Parties hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances other than indefeasible payment in full. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is agreed that the occurrence of any one or more of the following shall not alter or impair the liability of any Credit Party hereunder which shall remain absolute and unconditional as described above:

(a) at any time or from time to time, without notice to any Credit Party, the time for any performance of or compliance with any of the Credit Party Obligations shall be extended, or such performance or compliance shall be waived;

(b) any of the acts mentioned in any of the provisions of any of the Credit Documents or any other agreement or instrument referred therein shall be done or omitted;

(c) the maturity of any of the Credit Party Obligations shall be accelerated, or any of the Credit Party Obligations shall be modified, supplemented or amended in any respect, or any right under any of the Credit Documents or any other agreement or instrument referred to therein shall be waived or any other guarantee of any of the Credit Party Obligations or any security therefor shall be released or exchanged in whole or in part or otherwise dealt with;

(d) any Lien granted to, or in favor of, the Agent or any Lender or Lenders as security for any of the Credit Party Obligations shall fail to attach or be perfected; or

(e) any of the Credit Party Obligations shall be determined to be void or voidable (including, without limitation, for the benefit of any creditor of any Credit Party) or shall be subordinated to the claims of any Person (including, without limitation, any creditor of any Credit Party).

With respect to its obligations hereunder, each Credit Party hereby expressly waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, protest and all notices whatsoever, and any requirement that the Agent or any Lender exhaust any right, power or remedy or proceed against any Person under any of the Credit Documents or any other agreement or instrument referred to therein, or against any other Person under any other guarantee of, or security for, any of the Credit Party Obligations.

4.3 Reinstatement. The obligations of the Credit Parties under this Section 4 shall be automatically reinstated if and to the extent that for any reason any payment by or on behalf of any Person in respect of the Credit Party Obligations is rescinded or must be otherwise restored by any holder of any of the Credit Party Obligations, whether as a result of any proceedings in bankruptcy or reorganization or otherwise, and each Credit Party agrees that it will indemnify each of the Agent and each Lender on demand for all reasonable costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by the Agent or such Lender in connection with such rescission or restoration, including any such costs and expenses incurred in defending against any claim alleging that such payment constituted a preference, fraudulent transfer or similar payment under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law.

4.4 Certain Additional Waivers. Without limiting the generality of the provisions of any other Section of this Section 4, each Credit Party further agrees that it shall have no right of recourse to security for the Credit Party Obligations. Each of the Credit Parties further agrees that it shall have no right of subrogation, reimbursement or indemnity, nor any right of recourse to security, if any, for the Credit Party Obligations until indefeasible payment in full of all such obligations shall have been made.

4.5 Remedies. The Credit Parties agree that, as between the Credit Parties, on the one hand, and the Agent and the Lenders, on the other hand, the Credit Party Obligations may be declared to be forthwith due (and payable as provided in Section 9 hereof and shall be deemed to have become automatically due and payable in the circumstances provided in said Section 9) for purposes of Section 4.1 hereof notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such declaration (or preventing such Credit Party Obligations from becoming automatically due and payable) as against any other Person and that, in the event of such declaration (or such Credit Party Obligations being deemed to have become automatically due and payable), such Credit Party Obligations whether or not due and payable by any other Person) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Credit Parties for purposes of said Section 4.1.

4.6 Continuing Guarantee. The guarantee in this Section 4 is a continuing guarantee, and shall apply to all Credit Party Obligations whenever arising.

ARTICLE 6

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

To induce the Lenders to enter into this Credit Agreement and to make the Loans herein provided for, each of the Credit Parties hereby represents and warrants to the Agent and to each Lender that as of the Closing Date, and at all times thereafter (except as specifically set forth below in this Section 6):

6.1 Financial Statements. Prior to the Closing Date the Borrower has or will have furnished to the Lenders (a) the audited consolidated balance sheet of the Borrower and its Consolidated Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2002, December 31, 2003 and December 26, 2004 and related audited statements of income, shareholders’ equity and cash flows for the year ended on that date, together with an unqualified opinion thereon by Ernst & Young LLP, and (b) the unaudited consolidated balance sheet of the Borrower and its Consolidated Subsidiaries as of September 25, 2005 and related statements of income, shareholders’ equity and cash flows for the periods ended on such date, prepared by the Borrower. Such financial statements were prepared in accordance with GAAP consistently applied throughout the periods involved, are correct and complete and fairly present the consolidated financial condition of the Borrower and such Subsidiaries as of such dates and the results of their operations for the periods ended on such dates, subject, in the case of the unaudited interim statements, to the absence of footnotes, audit and normal year-end adjustments. Since December 26, 2004 there has been no development or event which has had a Material Adverse Effect. Schedule 6.1 sets forth the last day of the Borrower’s fiscal quarters for the period from the third fiscal quarter of 2005 through the fiscal year end 2011.

6.2 Ownership of Properties; Liens and Encumbrances. Each of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries has good and marketable title (or has an interest as a lessee) to all property, real and personal, as reflected on the most recent financial statement of the Borrower furnished to the Lenders, and all property purported to have been acquired (or leased) since the date of such financial statement, except property sold or otherwise disposed of in the ordinary course of business, the property of any Subsidiaries that are sold through an asset sale or otherwise disposed of and the return of any leased property upon the termination of any lease subsequent to such date; and all such property is free of any Lien except Permitted Liens. To the Borrower’s knowledge, all owned and leased buildings and equipment of the Borrower used in the Borrower’s business are in good operating condition, repair and working order, except for ordinary wear and tear and insured losses, and, to the Borrower’s knowledge, conform to all applicable laws, ordinances and regulations the violation of which would have a Material Adverse Effect. To the Borrower’s knowledge, the Borrower possesses adequate trademarks, trade names, copyrights, patents, service marks and licenses, or rights thereto, for the present and planned future conduct of its business substantially as now conducted, without any known conflict with the rights of others which would result in a Material Adverse Effect.

6.3 Corporate Existence; Compliance with Law. Each of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries (a) is duly incorporated, validly existing and in good standing (or similar concept under applicable law, including, without limitation, the concept of active status under the laws of the State of Wisconsin) under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation, (b) has the corporate power and authority and the legal right to own and operate all its material property, to lease the material property it operates as lessee and to conduct the business in which it is currently engaged, (c) is duly qualified as a foreign limited liability company or corporation and in good standing under the laws of each jurisdiction where its ownership, lease or operation of property or the conduct of its business requires such qualification and (d) is in compliance with all Requirements of Law; except to the extent that the failure to comply with any of (a) through (d) would not, either individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

6.4 Corporate Power; Authorization; Enforceable Obligations. Each of the Borrower and the other Credit Parties has full power and authority and the legal right to make, deliver and perform the Credit Documents to which it is party and has taken all necessary limited liability company or corporate action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance by it of the Credit Documents to which it is party. No consent or authorization of, filing with, notice to or other act by or in respect of, any Governmental Authority or any other Person is required in connection with the borrowings hereunder or with the execution, delivery or performance of any Credit Document by the Borrower or the other Credit Parties (other than those which have been obtained or which the failure to obtain would not, in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect) or with the validity or enforceability of any Credit Document against the Borrower or the Guarantors. Each Credit Document to which it is a party has been duly executed and delivered on behalf of the Borrower or the other Credit Parties, as the case may be. Each Credit Document to which it is a party constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Borrower or the Guarantors, as the case may be, enforceable against the Borrower or the other Credit Parties, as the case may be, in accordance with its terms.

6.5 No Legal Bar; No Default. The execution, delivery and performance of the Credit Documents, the borrowings thereunder and the use of the proceeds of the Loans will not violate any Requirement of Law the violation of which would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or any Contractual Obligation of the Borrower or its Subsidiaries the violation of which would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect (except those as to which waivers or consents have been obtained), and will not result in, or require, the creation or imposition of any Lien (other than Permitted Liens) on any of its or their respective properties or revenues pursuant to any Requirement of Law or Contractual Obligation. Neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries is in default under or with respect to any of its Contractual Obligations in any respect which would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

6.6 No Material Litigation. Except as set forth in the Audited Financial Statements, no litigation, investigation or proceeding of or before any arbitrator or Governmental Authority is pending or, to the knowledge of the Borrower and the other Credit Parties, threatened by or against the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or against any of its or their respective properties or revenues (a) with respect to the Credit Documents or any Loan or any of the transactions contemplated hereby, or (b) which, would reasonably be expected to (i) cause an adverse financial effect on the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries in excess of $20,000,000 or (ii) have a Material Adverse Effect.

6.7 Investment Company Act. Neither the Borrower nor any of the other Credit Parties is an “investment company”, or a company “controlled” by an “investment company,” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

6.8 Federal Regulations. No part of the proceeds of any Loan hereunder will be used directly or indirectly for any purpose which violates, or which would be inconsistent with, the provisions of Regulation T, U or X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System as now and from time to time hereafter in effect. The Borrower and its Subsidiaries taken as a group do not own “margin stock” except margin stock which is a Permitted Investment, but only to the extent otherwise permitted by this Agreement.

6.9 ERISA. Neither a Reportable Event nor an “accumulated funding deficiency” within the meaning of Section 412 of the Code (or Section 302 of ERISA) has occurred during the five-year period prior to the date on which this representation is made or deemed made with respect to any Plan, and each Plan has complied in all material respects with the applicable provisions of ERISA and the Code, except to the extent that any such occurrence or failure to comply would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No termination of a Single Employer Plan has occurred resulting in any liability that has remained underfunded, and no Lien in favor of the PBGC or a Plan has arisen, during such five-year period which would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The present value of all accrued benefits under each Single Employer Plan (based on those assumptions used to fund such Plans) did not, as of the last annual valuation date prior to the date on which this representation is made or deemed made, exceed the value of the assets of such Plan allocable to such accrued benefits by an amount which, as determined in accordance with GAAP, would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Neither the Borrower nor any Commonly Controlled Entity is currently subject to any liability for a complete or partial withdrawal from a Multiemployer Plan which would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. For purposes of this Section 6.9 only, the parties hereto agree that “Material Adverse Effect” shall include any event referred to in this Section 6.9 which would or could be reasonably expected to cause a reduction in Consolidated Net Worth of ten percent (10%) or more.

6.10 Environmental Matters. Except as set forth in Schedule 6.10 and except to the extent that all of the following, in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect:

(a) To the knowledge of the Borrower and the other Credit Parties, the facilities and properties owned, leased or operated by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (the “Properties”) do not contain any Materials of Environmental Concern in amounts or concentrations which (i) constitute a violation of, or (ii) could give rise to liability under, any Environmental Law.

(b) To the knowledge of the Borrower and the other Credit Parties, the Properties and all operations at the Properties are in compliance, and have in the last five years been in compliance, in all material respects with all applicable Environmental Laws, and there is no contamination at, under or about the Properties or violation of any Environmental Law with respect to the Properties or the business operated by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (the “Business”).

(c) Neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries has received any notice of violation, alleged violation, non-compliance, liability or potential liability regarding environmental matters or compliance with Environmental Laws with regard to any of the Properties or the Business, nor do the Borrower nor the other Credit Parties have knowledge or reason to believe that any such notice will be received or is being threatened.

(d) To the knowledge of the Borrower and the other Credit Parties, Materials of Environmental Concern have not been transported or disposed of from the Properties in violation of, or in a manner or to a location which could give rise to liability under any Environmental Law, nor have any Materials of Environmental Concern been generated, treated, stored or disposed of at, on or under any of the Properties in violation of, or in a manner that could give rise to liability under, any applicable Environmental Law.

(e) No judicial proceeding or governmental or administrative action is pending or, to the knowledge of the Borrower and the other Credit Parties, threatened, under any Environmental Law to which the Borrower or any Subsidiary is or will be named as a party with respect to the Properties or the Business, nor are there any consent decrees or other decrees, consent orders, administrative orders or other orders, or other administrative or judicial requirements outstanding under any Environmental Law with respect to the Properties or the Business.

(f) To the knowledge of the Borrower and the other Credit Parties, there has been no unremediated release or threat of release of Materials of Environmental Concern at or from the Properties, or arising from or related to the operations of the Borrower or any Subsidiary in connection with the Properties or otherwise in connection with the Business, in violation of or in amounts or in a manner that could give rise to liability under Environmental Laws.

6.11 Use of Proceeds. The Loans hereunder may be used to replace existing debt on the Closing Date and thereafter to fund future permitted acquisitions, capital expenditures, working capital and for other general corporate purposes.

6.12 Subsidiaries. Set forth on Schedule 6.12 is a complete and accurate list of all Subsidiaries of the Borrower. The outstanding capital stock and other equity interests of all such Subsidiaries is validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable (except as otherwise required by statute) and is owned, free and clear of all Liens.

6.13 Taxes. To the knowledge of the Borrower and the other Credit Parties, each of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries has filed, or caused to be filed, all material tax returns (federal, state, local and foreign) required to be filed and paid all taxes shown thereon to be due (including interest and penalties), except for such taxes (i) which are not yet delinquent or (ii) as are being contested in good faith and by proper proceedings, and against which adequate reserves are being maintained in accordance with GAAP. The Borrower is not aware of any proposed material tax assessments against it or any of its Subsidiaries. The most recent completed audit of the Borrower’s federal income tax returns was for the Borrower’s income tax year ending December 31, 2001, and all taxes shown by such returns (together with any adjustments arising out of such audit, if any) have been paid.

6.14 Solvency. The Borrower, individually, and the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, collectively, are and, after execution of this Credit Agreement on the Execution Date and after giving effect to the Indebtedness and Guarantee Obligations incurred hereunder on and after the Closing Date, will be Solvent.

6.15 Accuracy of Information. All information furnished by the Borrower to the Lenders is correct and complete in all material respects as of the date furnished and does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make such information not misleading.

6.16 Amendments to Schedule 6.12 and Schedule 6.17. To the extent otherwise permitted by this Agreement, the Borrower may, from time to time, amend Schedule 6.12 and/or Schedule 6.17 by delivering (effective upon receipt) to the Agent and each Lender a copy of such amended Schedule 6.12 or Schedule 6.17, as the case may be, which shall (i) be dated the date of delivery, (ii) be certified by a duly authorized officer of the Borrower as true, complete and correct as of such date as delivered in replacement for the Schedule 6.12 or Schedule 6.17, as the case may be, previously in effect, and (iii) show in reasonable detail (by blacklining or other appropriate graphic means) the changes from the predecessor Schedule 6.12 or Schedule 6.17; provided that Schedule 6.17 shall not be amended if a Material Adverse Effect results from the matters disclosed therein.

6.17 Station Licenses. As of the Closing Date, Schedule 6.17 lists all Station Licenses and the Credit Party that is the holder of each such Station License.

6.18 FCC Rules and Regulations.

(a) The operation of the businesses of Borrower and its Subsidiaries complies in all material respects with the Communications Act of 1934, as amended, and the applicable rules, regulations and published policies of the FCC (collectively, the “Communications Laws”) to the extent that the failure to so comply would have a Material Adverse Effect.

(b) The Station Licenses are all of the licenses, permits or other authorizations from the FCC used or necessary to operate the Stations as currently operated by Borrower and its Subsidiaries, and all Station Licenses have been validly issued in the name of Borrower or one of its Subsidiaries or, in the case of the Acquisition Station Licenses, an application has been made and is pending with the FCC for the granting of all necessary consents to the assignments of such Acquisition Station Licenses to Borrower or certain of its Subsidiaries (other than KMTV). Except as set forth on Schedule 6.17, as amended from time to time pursuant to Section 6.16, the Station Licenses are in full force and effect, are valid for the balance of the current license term and are unimpaired by any act or omissions of Borrower or its Subsidiaries. There are no conditions upon the Station Licenses except those conditions stated on the face thereof or conditions applicable to the stations of such class generally under the Communications Laws. Except as set forth on Schedule 6.17, as amended from time to time pursuant to Section 6.16, to Borrower’s knowledge, there are no applications, proceedings or complaints pending or, to Borrower’s best knowledge, threatened in writing that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect (other than proceedings that apply to the broadcast industry generally). Borrower is not aware of any reason why those of the Station Licenses subject to expiration might not be renewed in the ordinary course or of any reason why any of the Station Licenses might be revoked in each case to the extent such revocation or expiration, either singularly or in the aggregate with any other revocation or expiration would have a Material Adverse Effect. No pending renewal of any Station License would constitute a major federal action having a significant effect on the human environment under Section 1.1305 or 1.1307(b) of the FCC’s rules. All material information contained in any pending applications for modification, extension or renewal of the Station Licenses or other applications filed with the FCC with respect to the Station Licenses by Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries is true, complete and accurate in all material respects.

6.19 OFAC. No Credit Party (i) is a Person whose property or interest in property is blocked or subject to blocking pursuant to Section 1 of Executive Order 13224, (ii) engages in any dealings or transactions prohibited by Section 2 of such executive order, or is otherwise associated with any such Person in any manner violative of Section 2, or (iii) is a Person on the list of Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons or subject to the limitations or prohibitions under any other U.S. Department of Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control regulation or executive order.

6.20 USA Patriot Act. Each Credit Party is in compliance, in all material respects, with the (i) the Trading with the Enemy Act, as amended, and each of the foreign assets control regulations of the United States Treasury Department (31 CFR, Subtitle B, Chapter V, as amended) and any other enabling legislation or executive order relating thereto, and (ii) the USA Patriot Act. No part of the proceeds of the Loans will be used, directly or indirectly, for any payments to any governmental official or employee, political party, official of a political party, candidate for political office, or anyone else acting in an official capacity, in order to obtain, retain or direct business or obtain any improper advantage, in violation of the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, as amended.

8.1 Indebtedness. Contract, create, incur, assume or permit to exist any Indebtedness; provided, however, so long as no Event of Default exists on the date of incurrence or would result therefrom, the Borrower and its Subsidiaries may incur unsecured Indebtedness and Indebtedness secured by Permitted Liens.

(i) Specified Sales;

(ii) the sale, lease or transfer of property or assets by a Credit Party to a domestic Credit Party;

The Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it with reasonable care.

10.3 Exculpatory Provisions. Neither the Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates shall be (i) liable for any action lawfully taken or omitted to be taken by it or such Person under or in connection herewith or in connection with any of the other Credit Documents except for its or such Person’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct, or (ii) responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by any of the Credit Parties contained herein or in any of the other Credit Documents or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Agent under or in connection herewith or in connection with the other Credit Documents, or enforceability or sufficiency herefor of any of the other Credit Documents, or for any failure of the Borrower to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. The Agent shall not be responsible to any Lender for the effectiveness, genuineness, validity, enforceability, collectability or sufficiency of this Credit Agreement, or any of the other Credit Documents or for any representations, warranties, recitals or statements made herein or therein or made by the Borrower or any Credit Party in any written or oral statement or in any financial or other statements, instruments, reports, certificates or any other documents in connection herewith or therewith furnished or made by the Agent to the Lenders or by or on behalf of the Credit Parties to the Agent or any Lender or be required to ascertain or inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, conditions, provisions, covenants or agreements contained herein or therein or as to the use of the proceeds of the Loans or of the existence or possible existence of any Default or Event of Default or to inspect the properties, books or records of the Credit Parties.

10.4 Reliance on Communications. The Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any note, writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, cablegram, telegram, telecopy, telex or teletype message, statement, order or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including, without limitation, counsel to the Agent and any of the Lenders, independent accountants and other experts selected by the Agent with reasonable care). The Agent may deem and treat the Lenders as the owner of their respective interests hereunder for all purposes unless a written notice of assignment, negotiation or transfer thereof shall have been filed with the Agent in accordance with Section 11.6(d). The Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Credit Agreement or under any of the other Credit Documents unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders, or all Lenders, as the case may be, as it deems appropriate. The Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, hereunder or under any of the other Credit Documents in accordance with a request of the Required Lenders (or to the extent specifically provided in Section 11.1, all the Lenders) and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders (including their successors and assigns).

10.5 Notice of Default. The Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default hereunder (other than the failure by the Borrower to pay any principal or interest on any Note when due in accordance with the terms thereof or hereof) unless the Agent has received notice from a Lender or a Credit Party referring to the Credit Document, stating that a Default or Event of Default exists, and specifying the particulars thereof. In the event that the Agent receives such a notice or the Borrower fails to pay any principal or interest on any Note when due, the Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to the Lenders. The Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall be directed by the Required Lenders, otherwise than an action that the Agent reasonably believes would be a violation of law or otherwise prohibited by the Credit Documents.

10.6 Non-Reliance on Agent and Other Lenders. Each Lender expressly acknowledges that neither the Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates has made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by the Agent or any Affiliate thereof hereinafter taken, including any review of the affairs of the Borrower, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by the Agent to any Lender. Each Lender represents to the Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, assets, operations, property, financial and other conditions, prospects and creditworthiness of the Borrower and made its own decision to make its Loans hereunder and enter into this Credit Agreement. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Credit Agreement, and to make such investigation as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, assets, operations, property, financial and other conditions, prospects and creditworthiness of the Borrower. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Agent hereunder, the Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, assets, property, financial or other conditions, prospects or creditworthiness of the Borrower which may come into the possession of the Agent or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates.

10.7 Indemnification. The Lenders agree to indemnify the Agent in its capacity as such (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), ratably according to their respective Commitment Percentages (or if the Revolving Commitments have expired or been terminated, in accordance with the respective principal amounts of outstanding Loans of the Lenders), from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever which may at any time (including, without limitation, at any time following the termination of this Credit Agreement) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Agent in its capacity as such in any way relating to or arising out of this Credit Agreement or the other Credit Documents or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by the Agent under or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided that no Lender 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 the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Agent. If any indemnity furnished to the Agent for any purpose shall, in the reasonable opinion of the Agent, be insufficient or become impaired, the Agent may call for additional indemnity and cease, or not commence, to do the acts indemnified against until such additional indemnity is furnished.

10.8 Agent in its Individual Capacity. The Agent and its Affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or any other Credit Party as though the Agent were not Agent hereunder. With respect to its Loans, the Agent shall have the same rights, obligations and powers under this Credit Agreement as any Lender and may exercise the same as though they were not Agent, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” shall include the Agent in its individual capacity.

10.9 Successor Agent. The Agent may, at any time, resign upon 20 days’ written notice to the Lenders and the Borrower. Upon any such resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Agent (which shall be a Lender) with the prior written consent of the Borrower, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. If no successor Agent shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders, and shall have accepted such appointment, within 30 days after the notice of resignation, as appropriate, then the retiring Agent shall select a successor Agent provided such successor is a Lender hereunder or a commercial bank organized under the laws of the United States of America or of any State thereof and has a combined capital and surplus of at least $500,000,000. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations as Agent, as appropriate, under this Credit Agreement and the other Credit Documents and the provisions of this Section 10.9 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Agent under this Credit Agreement.

10.10 Joint Lead Arrangers, Syndication Agent, Documentation Agent, and Sole Book Runner. The Lenders identified on the title page to this Agreement as “Joint Lead Arranger,” “Documentation Agent,” “Syndication Agent,” and “Sole Book Runner” shall have no right, power, obligation or liability other than those applicable to all Lenders as such. Without limiting the foregoing, none of the Lenders so identified shall have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender. Each Lender acknowledges that it has not relied, and will not rely, on any Lender so identified in deciding to enter into this Agreement or in taking or omitting any action hereunder.

Any such waiver, any such amendment, supplement or modification and any such release shall apply equally to each of the Lenders and shall be binding upon the Borrower, the Lenders, the Agent and all future holders of the Notes. In the case of any waiver, the Borrower, the Lenders and the Agent shall be restored to their former position and rights hereunder and under the outstanding Loans, Notes and other Credit Documents, and any Default or Event of Default waived shall be deemed to be cured and not continuing; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default, or impair any right consequent thereon.

11.5 Payment of Expenses and Taxes. The Borrower agrees (a) to pay or reimburse the Agent for all its reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the preparation and execution of, and any amendment, supplement or modification to, the Credit Documents and any other documents prepared in connection herewith or therewith, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, together with the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel to the Agent, (b) to pay out-of-pocket expenses, including attorneys’ fees, incurred by a Lender in connection with the negotiation, preparation and execution of the Credit Documents, not to exceed $2,500 for each Lender, and reasonable expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, in connection with any future amendments or modifications hereto, (c) to pay or reimburse each Lender and the Agent for all its costs and expenses incurred in connection with the enforcement or preservation of any rights under this Credit Agreement and any other Credit Documents, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel to the Agent and to the Lenders (including reasonable allocated costs of in-house legal counsel), (d) on demand, to pay, indemnify, and hold each Lender and the Agent harmless from, any and all recording and filing fees and any and all liabilities with respect to, or resulting from any delay in paying, stamp, excise and other similar taxes, if any, which may be payable or determined to be payable in connection with the execution and delivery of, or consummation or administration of any of the transactions contemplated by, or any amendment, supplement or modification of, or any waiver or consent under or in respect of, the Credit Documents and any such other documents, and (e) to pay, indemnify, and hold each Lender and the Agent and their Affiliates, officers, directors, shareholders, employees and agents harmless from and against, any and all other liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever with respect to the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance and administration of the Credit Documents and any such other documents and the use, or proposed use, of proceeds of the Loans (all the foregoing, collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”); provided, however, that the Borrower shall not have any obligation hereunder to the Agent or any Lender with respect to Indemnified Liabilities arising from (i) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Agent or any such Lender, (ii) legal proceedings commenced against or disputes among the Agent or any Lender by any other Lender or its participants or the Agent, or (iii) the violation by the Agent or any such Lender of an express provision of the Credit Documents, if so determined by a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. The agreements in this Section 11.5 shall survive repayment of the Loans, Notes and all other amounts payable hereunder.

11.6 Successors and Assigns; Participations; Purchasing Lenders.

(a) This Credit Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrower, the Lenders, the Agent, all future holders of the Notes and their respective successors and assigns, except that the Borrower may not assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Credit Agreement or the other Credit Documents without the prior written consent of each Lender and no Lender may assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Credit Agreement or the other Credit Documents without the prior written consent of the Borrower, except as otherwise permitted by this Section 11.6.

(b) Any Lender may, in the ordinary course of its commercial banking business and in accordance with applicable law and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, with the consent of the Borrower if the Participant (as defined below) is not an Affiliate of such Lender (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), at any time sell to one or more banks or other entities (“Participant” or “Participants”) participating interests in any Loan owing to such Lender, any Note held by such Lender, any Revolving Commitment of such Lender, or any other interest of such Lender hereunder, provided, however, that at all times such Lender shall retain for its own account interests in Loans owing to such Lender in an aggregate outstanding principal amount which, when added to the aggregate outstanding principal amount of any interests in Loans sold by such Lender to Participants who are Affiliates of such Lender, equals not less than fifty percent (50%) of the aggregate principal amount of all such Lender’s outstanding Loans. In the event of any such sale by a Lender of participating interests to a Participant, such Lender’s obligations under this Credit Agreement to the other parties to this Credit Agreement shall remain unchanged, such Lender shall remain solely responsible for the performance thereof, such Lender shall remain the holder of any such Note for all purposes under this Credit Agreement, and the Borrower and the Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Credit Agreement. No Lender shall transfer or grant any participation under which the Participant shall have rights to approve any amendment to or waiver of this Credit Agreement or any other Credit Document except to the extent such amendment or waiver would (i) extend the scheduled maturity of any Loan, Note or any installment thereon in which such Participant is participating, or reduce the stated rate or extend the time of payment of interest or Fees thereon except in connection with a waiver of interest at the increased post-default rate) or reduce the principal amount thereof, or increase the amount of the Participant’s participation over the amount thereof then in effect it being understood that a waiver of any Default or Event of Default shall not constitute a change in the terms of such participation, and that an increase in any Revolving Commitment or Loan shall be permitted without consent of any Participant if the Participant’s participation is not increased as a result thereof, or (ii) consent to the assignment or transfer by the Borrower of any of its rights and obligations under this Credit Agreement. In the case of any such participation, the Participant shall not have any rights under this Credit Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents (the Participant’s rights against such Lender in respect of such participation to be those set forth in the agreement executed by such Lender in favor of the Participant relating thereto) and all amounts payable by the Borrower hereunder shall be determined as if such Lender had not sold such participation, provided that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.6, 3.7, 3.8, 3.9 and 11.5 with respect to its participation in the Revolving Commitments and the Loans outstanding from time to time; provided, that no Participant shall be entitled to receive any greater amount pursuant to such Sections than the transferor Lender would have been entitled to receive in respect of the amount of the participation transferred by such transferor Lender to such Participant had no such transfer occurred.

(c) Any Lender may, in the ordinary course of its commercial banking business and in accordance with applicable law, at any time sell or assign (i) to any Lender or any Affiliate thereof, except that any such sale or assignment shall be made only with the consent of the Borrower if such sale or assignment would increase any amount payable by the Borrower hereunder, or (ii) to one or more additional banks or financial institutions (“Purchasing Lenders”), except that any such sale or assignment shall be made only with the consent of the Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or at any time if any such sale or assignment would increase any amount payable by the Borrower hereunder, the consent of the Borrower: all or any part of its rights and obligations under this Credit Agreement and the Notes in minimum amounts of $10,000,000 (or, if less, the entire amount of such Lender’s obligations) if the Purchasing Lender is not a Lender hereunder, or with no minimum amount if the Purchasing Lender is a Lender hereunder, pursuant to a Commitment Transfer Supplement, executed by such Purchasing Lender, such transferor Lender (and, in the case of a Purchasing Lender that is not then a Lender or an Affiliate thereof so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, by the Borrower and the Agent), and delivered to the Agent for its acceptance and recording in the Register (as defined below). Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and recording, from and after the Transfer Effective Date specified in such Commitment Transfer Supplement, (x) the Purchasing Lender thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent provided in such Commitment Transfer Supplement, have the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder with a Revolving Commitment as set forth therein, and (y) the transferor Lender thereunder shall, to the extent provided in such Commitment Transfer Supplement, be released from its obligations under this Credit Agreement (and, in the case of a Commitment Transfer Supplement covering all or the remaining portion of a transferor Lender’s rights and obligations under this Credit Agreement, such transferor Lender shall cease to be a party hereto). Such Commitment Transfer Supplement shall be deemed to amend this Credit Agreement to the extent, and only to the extent, necessary to reflect the addition of such Purchasing Lender and the resulting adjustment of Commitment Percentages arising from the purchase by such Purchasing Lender of all or a portion of the rights and obligations of such transferor Lender under this Credit Agreement and the Notes. On or prior to the Transfer Effective Date specified in such Commitment Transfer Supplement, the Borrower, at its own expense, shall execute and deliver to the Agent in exchange for the Note delivered to the Agent pursuant to such Commitment Transfer Supplement a new Note to the order of such Purchasing Lender in an amount equal to the Revolving Commitment assumed by it pursuant to such Commitment Transfer Supplement and, unless the transferor Lender has not retained a Revolving Commitment hereunder, a new Note to the order of the transferor Lender in an amount equal to the Revolving Commitment retained by it hereunder. Except for the expense of executing and delivering such new Note to the Agent pursuant to this Section, the Borrower shall not be obligated to pay any transfer fees, costs or expenses to the Agent or any Lender in connection with any such transfer. Such new Note shall be dated the Closing Date and shall otherwise be in the form of the Note replaced thereby. The Note surrendered by the transferor Lender shall be returned by the Agent to the Borrower marked “canceled.”

(d) The Agent shall maintain at its address referred to in Section 11.2 a copy of each Commitment Transfer supplement delivered to it and a register (the “Register”) for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and the Revolving Commitment of, and principal amount of the Loans owing to, each Lender from time to time. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, in the absence of manifest error, and the Borrower, the Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as the owner of the Loan recorded therein for all purposes of this Credit Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower or any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(e) Upon its receipt of a Commitment Transfer Supplement executed by a transferor Lender and a Purchasing Lender and, in the case of a Purchasing Lender that is not then a Lender (or an Affiliate thereof, by the Borrower and the Agent) together with payment to the Agent by the transferor Lender or the Purchasing Lender, (as agreed between them) of a registration and processing fee of $3,500 for each Purchasing Lender listed in such Commitment Transfer Supplement, and the Notes subject to such Commitment Transfer Supplement, the Agent shall (i) accept such Commitment Transfer Supplement, (ii) record the information contained therein in the Register and (iii) give prompt notice of such acceptance and recordation to the Lenders and the Borrower.

(f) The Borrower authorizes each Lender to disclose to any Participant or Purchasing Lender each, (a “Transferee”) and any permitted prospective Transferee any and all financial information in such Lender’s possession concerning the Borrower and its Affiliates which has been delivered to such Lender by or on behalf of the Borrower pursuant to this Credit Agreement or which has been delivered to such Lender by or on behalf of the Borrower in connection with such Lender’s credit evaluation of the Borrower and its Affiliates prior to becoming a party to this Credit Agreement.

(g) At the time of each assignment pursuant to this Section 11.6 to a Person which is not already a Lender hereunder and which is not a United States person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) for Federal income tax purposes, the respective assignee Lender shall provide to the Borrower and the Agent the appropriate Internal Revenue Service Forms (and, if applicable, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate) described in Section 3.9.

(h) Nothing herein shall prohibit any Lender from pledging or assigning any of its rights under this Credit Agreement (including, without limitation, any right to payment of principal and interest under any Note) to any Federal Reserve Bank in accordance with applicable laws.

11.7 Set-off. In addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by law (including, without limitation, other rights of set-off), each Lender shall have the right, without prior notice to the Borrower, any such notice being expressly waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, to setoff and appropriate and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and any other credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by such Lender or any Affiliate, branch or agency thereof to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower, or any part thereof in such amounts as such Lender may elect, against and on account of the obligations and liabilities of the Borrower to such Lender hereunder and claims of every nature and description of such Lender against the Borrower, in any currency, whether arising hereunder, under the Notes or under any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein, as such Lender may elect, whether or not such Lender has made any demand for payment. The aforesaid right of set-off may be exercised by such Lender against the Borrower or against any trustee in bankruptcy, debtor in possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors, receiver or execution, judgment or attachment creditor of the Borrower, or against anyone else claiming through or against the Borrower or any such trustee in bankruptcy, debtor in possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors, receiver, or execution, judgment or attachment creditor, notwithstanding the fact that such right of set-off shall not have been exercised by such Lender prior to the occurrence of any Event of Default. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower and the Agent after any such set-off and application made by such Lender; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application.

11.8 Confidentiality. The Agent and each Lender shall hold in confidence any material nonpublic information delivered or made available to them by the Borrower. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent the Agent or any Lender from disclosing any information delivered or made available to it by the Borrower (a) to such Lender’s Affiliates, the Agent or any Lender, (b) upon the order of any court or administrative agency, (c) upon the request or demand of any regulatory agency or authority, (d) which has been publicly disclosed other than as a result of a disclosure by the Agent or any Lender which is not permitted by this Agreement, (e) to the extent reasonably required in connection with any litigation to which the Agent, any Lender, or any of their respective Affiliates may be a party, along with the Borrower, any Subsidiary or any of their respective Affiliates, (f) to the extent reasonably required in connection with the exercise of any right or remedy under this Agreement, (g) to such Agent’s or Lender’s legal counsel and financial consultants and independent auditors, and (h) to any Transferee or permitted prospective Transferee and such Transferee or permitted prospective Transferee agrees in writing to be bound by the duty of confidentiality under this Section to the same extent as if it were a Lender hereunder. Further, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, any party hereto (and any employee, representative or other agent of such party) may disclose to any Person, without limitation of any kind, the tax treatment and tax structure of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and all materials of any kind (including tax opinions or other tax analyses) provided to it relating to such tax treatment and tax structure.

11.9 Table of Contents and Section Headings. The table of contents and the Section and subsection headings herein are intended for convenience only and shall be ignored in construing this Credit Agreement.

11.10 Counterparts. This Credit Agreement may be executed by one or more of the parties to this Credit Agreement on any number of separate counterparts, and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument. A set of the copies of this Credit Agreement signed by all the parties shall be lodged with the Borrower and the Agent.

11.11 Severability. Any provision of this Credit Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

11.12 Integration. This Credit Agreement, the Notes and the other Credit Documents represent the agreement of the Borrower, the Agent and the Lenders with respect to the subject matter hereof, and there are no promises, undertakings, representations or warranties by the Agent, the Borrower or any Lender relative to the subject matter hereof not expressly set forth or referred to herein or in the Notes.

11.13 Governing Law. This Credit Agreement and the Notes and the rights and obligations of the parties under this Credit Agreement and the Notes shall be governed by, and construed and interpreted in accordance with, the internal laws of the State of Wisconsin without giving effect to its conflicts of law provisions.

11.14 Government Approval. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Credit Document any action taken or proposed to be taken hereunder that would affect the operational, voting, or other control of any Credit Party or affect the ownership of the Station Licenses shall be pursuant to the Communications Laws and, if and to the extent required thereby, subject to the prior consent of the FCC and any other applicable Governmental Authority.

SCHEDULE 6.10

ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS

1. Xxxx’x Landfill Superfund Site, Caledonia, Wisconsin

In 1987, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency notified Journal Sentinel Inc. that it was a “potentially responsible party” at the Xxxx’x Landfill Superfund Site in Caledonia, Wisconsin. This site is seven miles due south of the Milwaukee Airport. An internal investigation revealed that Journal Sentinel had dumped its waste newspaper inks at the site between 1959 and 1974 (as directed then by the Wisconsin DNR). The estimated cost of remediation at that time was $25 million.

In April, 1992, 38 Milwaukee area companies, schools and other entities executed a consent decree with the EPA in Milwaukee federal court by which they agreed to be responsible for the remediation of this site. Journal Sentinel Inc. agreed to an allocated share of responsibility of 1.37% or an estimated cost of $340,000 over the life of the project. Subsequent agreements with “recalcitrant” parties or de minimus polluters to the site provided over $3 million in cash contributions to the clean-up fund.

The site was capped and surrounded by a clay slurry wall to prevent additional seepage by 1997. Since then, there have been expenses for maintenance, repairs and testing xxxxx. It now appears that the total cost of the remediation project will be approximately $6 million, far less than the original estimate. Journal Sentinel’s payments for the remediation (not including legal fees) thus far have been about $80,000, and no additional expenses are anticipated. The trustees for the remediation of the site have approximately $3 million available for future clean-up expenses and currently anticipate future expenses of approximately $2.5 million to $3 million. A closure order on this site is not expected for several years.

In 1995, Journal Sentinel negotiated a $200,000 payment from its general liability insurance carrier as settlement for its claim for its past and future expenses in the Xxxx’x Superfund matter. The company is not obligated to refund any overpayment to the insurance carrier.

2. Journal Garage Site, 0^xx & XxXxxxxx Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxx

In 1990, five underground fuel storage tanks at the Journal garage were found to be leaking and were removed. A substantial amount of gasoline and diesel fuel had leaked into the subsurface, much of it trapped by the building’s foundation wall. Working with an environmental consultant, the company removed a substantial amount of contaminated soil and commenced pump-and-treat operations. While the company’s remediation efforts have consumed 12 years, the task has been complicated by multiple other contamination sources from nearby, up-gradient sources. At this time, the company has suspended its remediation effort and has asked the State of Wisconsin to adopt a regional approach to remediating the entire neighborhood in one coordinated effort. A major portion of the clean-up costs is being funded by the Wisconsin PECFA (Petroleum Environmental Clean-Up Fund Act) program, which pays a major share of the remediation expenses for contamination caused by leaking gasoline and diesel fuel tanks.

3. Eight Former Gas Stations Sites, Milwaukee, Wisconsin

In the 1950‘s and 1960‘s, the Milwaukee newspapers purchased numerous former gas stations for use as neighborhood newspaper distribution sites. In 1990-1991, the company contacted the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (DNR) about possible contamination at eight of these sites due to leaking underground petroleum storage tanks. In 1992, the company launched remediation efforts to clean up these sites. These efforts included the retention of an environmental consultant, removal of the underground storage tanks, assessment of the contamination problem in coordination with the DNR and removal of the underground contaminants by various methods. Remediation work at six of the sites has been completed and closure orders have been received.

Remediation work on the other two sites has reached a final stage. At the seventh site (4170 X. Xxxxxx St.), the Department of Commerce requested additional field work, and this was completed in August 2005. On November 2, 2005, the company’s environmental consultant submitted a second closure request to the Department of Commerce. At the eighth site (2401 S. 13^th St.), two additional testing xxxxx were installed in October 2005 at the request of the Department of Commerce. One round of groundwater sampling was done in October 2005 and another will follow in January 2006. Based upon favorable test results from these two rounds of groundwater sampling, it is anticipated that a closure request to the Department of Commerce may be submitted as soon as in the 2^nd Quarter 2006.

Approximately 90% of the expenses to date of over $1 million are eligible for reimbursement from the state’s PECFA program. It is anticipated that a major portion of all future expenses will be reimbursed through the PERCFA program.

4. Former Gas Station Site, Neenah, Wisconsin

Add, Inc. (now known as Journal Community Publishing Group, Inc.) acquired this property in Neenah, Wisconsin in 1984. The office was formerly a gas station. In November, 1998, the DNR apprised Add, Inc. that tests for underground contamination at adjacent lots indicated that this property was the source of environmental contamination. The company obtained a statement of eligibility for PECFA reimbursement for this site in 1999. Subsequently, Add, Inc. retained an environmental consultant, removed two underground tanks from the site in September, 1999 and installed 12 test xxxxx. These tests indicated substantial subsurface contamination due to leaking petroleum tanks. They also indicated that the site was formerly a manufactured gas plant (MGP) between 1876 to 1902.

WE Energies (formerly Wisconsin Electric Company) agreed to assume responsibility for the remediation of the MGP-related contamination. WE Energies and Add, Inc. jointly retained an environmental consultant and adopted an aggressive $1.35 million clean-up plan that was approved by the Wisconsin Department of Commerce and the Department of Natural Resources. WE Energies agreed to be responsible for approximately 60% of the remediation costs. A substantial portion of the Company’s expenses are being reimbursed by the Wisconsin PECFA program. The Company’s insurance carrier has denied coverage.

5. Calumet Container Superfund Site, Hammond, Indiana

Notice was received from EPA’s Chicago Office in April, 2003 that a former subsidiary has been designated again as a “potentially responsible party” (“PRP”) at the Calumet Container Superfund Site in Hammond, Indiana. The former subsidiary is Xxxxxxx & Deutsch Lithographing Co., Inc. (“E&D”), a commercial printing firm in Cicero, Illinois that the company owned between 1966 and 1984. Calumet Container was a barrel and pail reclamation and recycling facility. In the 1970‘s, E&D paid to have approximately 2,500 drums and 20,000 ink pails cleaned and recycled at this facility.

EPA is suing the PRP group, which consists of approximately 150 companies and other entities, for $1.4 million for a special clean-up project at the site. Previously, in 1990, 64 PRPs agreed to reimburse EPA for clean-up costs that had been incurred up to that time. E&D made a minor contribution at that time to the clean-up fund. The major portion of the clean-up work involves the removal and remediation of 20,000 cubic yards of contaminated soils, approximately the top two feet of soil on the site. On November 10, 2005, the Company executed a “Cashout Agreement” with EPA, by which the Company will pay $12,684 and will thereafter be exempt from demands for remediation costs from EPA.

6. Retainers Liabilities from Sale of NorthStar Print Group.

When the Company sold NorthStar Print Group, Inc. on January 25, 2005, it agreed to retain certain environmental liabilities at its Norway, Michigan and Green Bay, Wisconsin plants.

The Norway premises were included in the sale of assets to the buyer (Multicolor Corporation). In the sale agreement, the Company agreed to remain liable for the remediation of certain known contamination problems. The Norway liability pertains to soil and groundwater contamination by chlorinated solvents and petroleum hydrocarbons from leaking underground storage tanks. The tanks were removed in the 1990‘s. The remaining contamination is discrete, the plume appears to be limited to the property, and the Company is managing an active remediation program in coordination with the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality. The anticipated future costs to the Company are estimated to be less considerably less than $100,000. It is expected that remediation efforts will have to continue for about 2 years before a closure order can be obtained from the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality.

The Green Bay plant was not sold to Multicolor Corporation. The premises are being leased to Multicolor Corporation with an option to purchase after Multicolor Corporation is satisfied that the Company has sufficiently remediated the known environmental contamination situation. The Company has retained the environmental liability. It is believed that the contamination was caused by solvents stored in an outside storage shed that leaked. The Company has adopted an active remediation plan. On November 15, 2005, approximately 350 cubic yards of contaminated soils were excavated from the site and replaced by clean fill. Using various other remediation techniques, the Company is hopeful that a closure order from the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources can be obtained in approximately 1½ to 2 years. The cost of this remediation project is estimated to be about $175,000, with most of the expenses to be paid before the end of FY 2005.

FORM OF CERTIFICATE OF FINANCIAL CONDITION

To: U.S. Bank National Association as Administrative Agent for the benefit of the several Lenders parties to that certain Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of November __, 2005.

The following is delivered with and as a condition to the making of Loans under that certain Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) dated as of November __, 2005 by and among Journal Communications, Inc. (the “Borrower”), the several Lenders from time to time parties thereto (the “Lenders”), U.S. Bank National Association, as administrative agent for the Lenders, and certain Subsidiaries of the Borrower from time to time parties thereto as guarantors. Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein have the same meanings as in the Credit Agreement.

The undersigned are the Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer and the Vice President and Treasurer of the Borrower. Each of the undersigned is familiar with the terms of the Credit Agreement, and is familiar with the affairs and records of the Borrower as they relate to the matters dealt with in this Certificate.

Each of the undersigned has carefully reviewed the contents of this Certificate, and has conferred with counsel for the Borrower for the purpose of discussing the meaning of its contents.

In connection with the conclusions set forth in paragraphs 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 below, each of the undersigned has made such investigation and inquiries as he has deemed necessary and prudent and specifically has relied on historical information and other data supplied by the personnel of the Borrower who are directly responsible for the various operations involved.

Based upon the foregoing, each of the undersigned, being the Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer and the Vice President and Treasurer of the Borrower, has reached the following conclusions, that as of this date:

1. The Borrower, after the consummation of the transactions contemplated in the Credit Agreement, will not be insolvent. Each of the undersigned understands that in this context, “insolvent” means the present fair saleable value of the Borrower’s assets is less than the amount that will be required to pay the probable liability on existing debts as they become absolute and matured. Each of the undersigned also understands that the term “debts” includes any legal liability, whether matured or unmatured, liquidated or unliquidated, subordinated or unsubordinated, absolute, fixed or contingent.

2. By incurring its obligations in connection with the Credit Agreement, the Borrower will not incur debts beyond its ability to pay as they mature. Each of the undersigned has concluded that the realization upon the Borrower’s assets on an orderly basis and in the ordinary course of business, as the case may be, will be sufficient to pay or permit the refinancing of recurring current debt, short-term debt and long-term debt as such debts mature.

3. Incurrence of its obligations in connection with the Credit Agreement will not leave the Borrower with property remaining in its hands constituting “unreasonably small capital.” In reaching this conclusion, each of the undersigned understands that “unreasonably small capital” depends upon the nature of the particular business or businesses conducted or to be conducted, and each of the undersigned has reached his conclusion based on the needs and anticipated needs for capital of the businesses conducted or anticipated to be conducted by the Borrower including available credit capacity.

4. The Borrower has not entered into the Credit Agreement with actual intent to hinder, delay or defraud either present or future creditors.

Each of the undersigned understands that the Lenders are relying on the truth and accuracy of the foregoing in connection with their entering into the Credit Agreement and making Loans thereunder.

Each of the undersigned, in his/her capacity as the Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer and the Vice President and Treasurer, represents the foregoing information to be, to the best of his/her knowledge and belief after reasonable inquiry, true and correct, in witness whereof each has set his/her hand hereto as of the ____ day of November, 2005.

2. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original but all of which when taken together shall constitute one contract.
