10.17 As to the Bank's Base Rate. Borrower acknowledges that the Bank's Base Rate is one of several interest rate indices employed by the Bank; and that the Bank has made and may hereafter make loans bearing interest at rates which are higher or lower than the Bank's Base Rate.

10.18 Intentionally Omitted.

10.19 Reports. Except as otherwise expressly set forth herein, all certificates and reports to be furnished by the Borrower or Guarantor to the Bank shall be furnished by an officer of the Borrower or the Guarantor, as applicable.

10.20 Compromises. Releases. Etc. The Guarantor agrees that:

(a) The Bank is hereby authorized from time to time, without notice to anyone, to make any sales, pledges, surrenders, compromises, settlements, releases, indulgences, alterations, substitutions, exchanges, changes in, modifications or other disposition, including, without limitation, cancellations, of all or any part of the Loan indebtedness, or of any contract or instrument evidencing any thereof, or of any security or collateral therefor, and/or to take any security for or other guaranties upon any of said indebtedness; and the liability of the Guarantor shall not be in any manner affected, diminished or impaired thereby, or by any lack of diligence, failure, neglect, or omission on the part of the Bank to make any demand or protest, or to give any notice of dishonor or default, or to realize upon or protect any of said indebtedness or any collateral or security therefor.

(b) The Bank shall have the exclusive right to determine how, when and what application of payments and credits, if any, shall be made on the Loan and extensions of credit or any part thereof, and shall be under no obligation, at any time, to first resort to, make demand on, file a claim against, or exhaust its remedies against the Borrower, or its property or estate, or to resort to or exhaust its remedies against any collateral, security, property, liens or other rights whatsoever.

(c) The Bank may, at any time, make demand for payment on, or bring suit against, the Guarantor, or any other guarantors, less than all, and may compound with any one or more of any guarantors for such sums or on such terms as it may see fit, and without notice or consent, the same being hereby expressly waived, release any guarantor from all further liability to the Bank hereunder, without thereby impairing the rights of the Bank in any respect to demand, xxx for, and collect the balance of the indebtedness from any guarantor not so released.

(d) Notwithstanding any provision contained herein or in the guaranty agreement
executed by the Guarantor in favor of the Bank, if at any time the Guarantor is or becomes an “insider” (as defined from time to time in Section 101 of the Federal Bankruptcy Code) with respect to the Borrower, the Guarantor waives any and all rights of subrogation against the Borrower with respect to its said Guaranty of the obligations of the Borrower, whether such rights arise under an express or implied contract or by operation of law, it being the intention of the parties that, if the Guarantor is an “insider” with respect to the Borrower, the Guarantor shall not be deemed to be a “creditor” (as defined in Section 101 of the Federal Bankruptcy Code) of the Borrower, by reason of the existence of such Guaranty in the event that the Borrower becomes a debtor in any proceeding under the Federal Bankruptcy Code.

(e) The Guarantor does further absolutely and unconditionally guarantee the payment and performance of each and every obligation and undertaking of the Borrower hereunder.

10.21 Venue of Actions. As an integral part of the consideration for the making of the Loan, it is expressly understood and agreed that no suit or action shall be commenced by the Borrower, by either Guarantor, or by any heir, successor, personal representative or assignee of any of them, with respect to the Loan contemplated hereby, or with respect to any of the Loan Documents, other than in a state court of competent jurisdiction in and for the County of the State in which the principal place of business of the Bank is situated, or in the United States District Court for the District in which the principal place of business of the Bank is situated, and not elsewhere. Nothing in this paragraph contained shall prohibit Bank instituting suit in any court of competent jurisdiction for the enforcement of its rights hereunder, in the Note, in the Security Agreement or in any other loan document.

10.22 Assignments and Participations. Subject to the last two sentences of this Section 10.22, Bank may sell or offer to sell the Loan or interests therein to one or more assignees or participants. Borrower shall execute, acknowledge and deliver any and all instruments reasonably requested by Bank in connection therewith, and to the extent, if any, specified in any such assignment or participation, such assignee(s) or participant(s) shall have the same rights and benefits with respect to the Loan Documents as such Person(s) would have if such Person(s) were Bank hereunder. Bank may disseminate any information it now has or hereafter obtains pertaining to the Loan, including any security for the Loan, or Borrower, to any actual or prospective assignee or participant with Borrower’s consent as descrbed below, to any regulatory body having jurisdiction over Bank, to any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to Bank and the Loan, as necessary or appropriate in Bank's reasonable judgment. However, subject to applicable law, Bank shall use reasonable efforts to protect the confidentiality of the terms and conditions of the Loan in all other respects. Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and except in case of an assignment in connection with a merger or sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Bank, before entering into an assignment or participation with respect to all or a portion of the Loan, Bank shall give Borrower prior written notice of its intent to assign or participate all or a portion of the Loan. In such case, Borrower shall have five (5) Business Days from receipt of such notice to either consent to such assignment or participation or refuse to consent. Borrower's failure to respond within such time frame shall be deemed to be Borrower's consent.

10.23 Electronic Transmission of Data. Bank and Borrower agree that certain data related to the Loan (including confidential information, documents, applications and reports) may be transmitted electronically, including transmission over the Internet to the parties, the parties affiliates, agents and representatives, and other Persons involved with the subject matter of this Agreement. Borrower acknowledges and agrees that (a) there are risks associated with the use of electronic transmission and that Bank does not control the method of transmittal or service providers, (b) Bank has no obligation or responsibility whatsoever and assumes no duty or obligation for the security, receipt or third party interception of any such transmission, and (c) Borrower will release, hold harmless and indemnify Bank from any claim, damage or loss, including that arising in whole or part from Bank's strict liability or sole, comparative or contributory negligence, but not its sole gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction, which is related to the electronic transmission of data.

10.24 Waiver of Right to Trial by Jury. EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT HEREBY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION (a) ARISING UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER INSTRUMENT, DOCUMENT OR AGREEMENT EXECUTED OR DELIVERED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH, OR (b) IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH OR RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THE DEALING OF THE PARTIES HERETO OR ANY OF THEM WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER INSTRUMENT, DOCUMENT OR AGREEMENT EXECUTED OR DELIVERED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH, OR THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED HERETO OR THERETO, IN EACH CASE WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING; AND EACH PARTY HEREBY AGREES AND CONSENTS THAT ANY SUCH CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION SHALL BE DECIDED BY COURT TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY, AND THAT ANY PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT MAY FILE AN ORIGINAL COUNTERPART OR COPY OF THIS SECTION WITH ANY COURT AS EVIDENCE OF SUCH AGREEMENT.

10.25 Amendment and Restatement. This Amended and Restated Loan Agreement is an amendment and restatement of the parties' Prior Loan Agreement, and shall not be construed as a novation thereof. From and after the date hereof, the terms and provisions of this Amended and Restated Loan Agreement shall control.

FOURTH AMENDED AND RESTATED CONSOLIDATED REVOLVING CREDIT NOTE

$40,000,000.00

Memphis, Tennessee

____________, 2016

ON OR BEFORE July 1, 2018 (the “Termination Date”), the undersigned, X.X.X. TRANSPORT, INC. (“Maker”), promises to pay to the order of FIRST TENNESSEE BANK NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, a national banking association having its principal place of business in Memphis, Tennessee (“Bank”), the principal sum of Forty Million Dollars ($40,000,000.00), value received, together with interest from date until paid, upon disbursed and unpaid principal balances, at the Contract Rate hereinafter specified, said interest being payable monthly on the first (1^st) day of each month hereafter, commencing on the 1^st day of April, 2016, with the final installment of interest being due and payable concurrently on the same date that the principal balance is due hereunder.

The Termination Date may be extended one or more times pursuant to the provisions of that certain Amended and Restated Loan Agreement dated _____________ ____, 2016, among Maker, Bank and a certain guarantor therein mentioned and described (as same may hereafter be amended, the “Loan Agreement”), and if so extended, such extended date shall thereupon constitute the Termination Date.

The interest rate on this Note is subject to change from time to time based on changes in an independent index (the “Index”) which is the LIBOR Rate (as hereinafter defined) adjusted and determined, without notice to Maker, as of the first day of the month in which this Note is executed and as of the first (1st) day of each calendar month hereafter (the “Interest Rate Change Date”). The “LIBOR Rate” shall mean the London Interbank Offered Rate of interest for an interest period of one (1) month, which appears on Bloomberg page BBAM under the column heading “USD” (the “Index”) on the day that is two (2) London Business Days preceding each Interest Rate Change Date (the “Reset Date”). If the LIBOR Rate as defined above is not available or is not published for any Reset Date, then Bank shall, at its sole discretion, choose a substitute source for the LIBOR Rate, which LIBOR Rate plus the Margin (hereinafter defined) shall become effective on the next Interest Rate Change Date. “London Business Day” shall mean any day on which commercial banks in London, England are open for general business. The Index is not necessarily the lowest rate charged by Bank on its loans. If the Index becomes unavailable during the term of this loan, Bank may designate a substitute index after notice to Maker. Bank will tell Maker the current Index rate upon Maker's request. The interest rate change will not occur more often than each month. Maker understands that Bank may make loans based on other rates as well. The Index is currently 1.4385% per annum. The Index plus a margin of one and one-half percent (1.5%) (the “Margin”) results in an initial interest rate of 1.9385%. NOTICE: Under no circumstances will the interest rate on the Note be more than the maximum rate allowed by applicable law.

The annual interest rate for this Note is computed on a 365/360 basis; that is, by applying the ratio of the annual interest rate over a year of 360 days, multiplied by the outstanding principal balance, multiplied by the actual number of days the principal balance is outstanding.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (as defined in the Loan Agreement), the Bank, at its option, may charge, and the Maker agrees to pay, interest on disbursed and unpaid principal balances at the default rate (the “Default Rate”) equal to a rate per annum equal to the lesser of (a) the Maximum Rate or (b) (i) the base commercial rate of interest (the “Base Rate”) established from time to time by the Bank plus (ii) three percent (3%).

Notwithstanding any other provisions herein, if any Change in Law (as hereinafter defined) shall make it unlawful for the Bank to make or maintain a LIBOR Rate loan as contemplated by this Note, the principal outstanding hereunder shall, if required by law and if the Bank so requests, be converted on the date required to make the loan evidenced by this Note legal to a loan accruing interest at the lesser of the Maximum Rate or the base commercial rate of interest (“Base Rate”) established from time to time by the Bank. Each change in the Base Rate shall become effective, without notice to the undersigned, on the same date that the Base Rate changes. The undersigned hereby agrees promptly to pay the Bank, upon demand, any costs incurred by the Bank in making any conversion in accordance with this paragraph, including any interest or fees payable by the Bank to lenders of funds obtained by it in order to maintain its LIBOR Rate loans.

Any amounts not paid when due hereunder (whether by reason of acceleration, maturity, or otherwise) shall bear interest after maturity at the Default Rate.

For purposes hereof, the following terms shall have the following meanings unless the context otherwise requires:

“Change in Law” shall mean the adoption of any law, rule, regulation, policy, guideline or directive (whether or not having the force of law) or any change therein or in the interpretation or application thereof, in all cases by any Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Bank, in each case after the date hereof.

“Governmental Authority” shall mean any nation or government, any state or other political subdivision thereof and any entity exercising regulatory functions of or pertaining to government.

In the event that the foregoing provisions should be construed by a court of competent jurisdiction not to constitute a valid, enforceable designation of a rate of interest or method of determining same, the indebtedness hereby evidenced shall bear interest at the maximum effective contract rate which may be charged by the Bank under applicable statutes and laws from time to time in effect.

For any payment which is not made within ten (10) days of the due date for such payment, the Maker shall pay a late fee. The late fee shall equal five percent (5%) of the unpaid portion of the past-due payment.

This Note is secured by an Amended and Restated Security Agreement (the “Security Agreement”) dated of even date herewith, as same may be modified, amended, renewed, or extended, covering Maker's Accounts Receivable, and other collateral, as is more particularly described in said Security Agreement, and may now or hereafter be secured by other mortgages, trust deeds, assignments, security agreements, or other instruments of pledge or hypothecation.

This Note is payable at the offices of Bank, 000 Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxx 00000, or at such other place as the holder may designate in writing, in lawful money of the United States of America, which shall be legal tender in payment of all debts and dues, public and private, at the time of payment.

On the Termination Date, or, at the option of the Bank (a) if the undersigned shall fail to make payment of any installment of interest, as above provided, or (b) upon any default in the terms and provisions of the Security Agreement or any trust deed, mortgage, or other instrument of pledge or hypothecation which now or hereafter secures the payment of the indebtedness evidenced hereby, or (c) upon the occurrence of any Event of Default as that term is defined in the Loan Agreement, or (d) upon the death or dissolution of the Maker or any endorser or guarantor or (if the Maker, or any endorser or guarantor is a partnership) the death or dissolution of any general partner thereof, or (e) upon default in the payment when due of any other indebtednesses, liabilities, or obligations of the Maker to the Bank, whether now existing or hereafter created or arising, the entire unpaid balance of the indebtedness hereby evidenced, together with all interest then accrued, shall at once become due and payable for all purposes.

If this Note is placed in the hands of an attorney for collection, by suit or otherwise, or to protect the security for its payment, or to enforce its collection, or to represent the rights of the Bank in connection with any loan documentation executed in connection herewith, or to defend successfully against any claim, cause of action or suit brought by the Maker against the Bank, the Maker shall pay on demand all costs of collection and litigation (including court costs), together with a reasonable attorney's fee. These include, but are not limited to, the Bank's reasonable attorney's fees and legal expenses, whether or not there is a lawsuit, including attorney's fees for bankruptcy proceedings (including efforts to modify or vacate any automatic stay or injunction) and appeals.

The Bank and the Maker hereby waive the right to any jury trial in any action, proceeding, or counterclaim brought by either Bank or Maker against the other.

To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Bank reserves a right of setoff in all the Maker's accounts with the Bank (whether checking, savings, or some other account). This includes all accounts the Maker may open in the future. However, this does not include any XXX or Xxxxx accounts, or any trust accounts for which setoff would be prohibited by law. The Maker authorizes the Bank, to the extent permitted by applicable law, to charge or setoff all sums owing on the indebtedness against any and all such accounts, and, at the Bank's option, to administratively freeze all such accounts to allow the Bank to protect the Bank's charge and setoff rights provided in this paragraph.

To help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, Federal law requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each business entity that opens an account. What this means to Maker: When Maker opens an account, the Bank will ask for Federal Tax Identification Number, physical street address, full legal name of the Maker and other information that will allow the Bank to identify Maker. The Bank may also ask Maker to provide copies of certain documents that will aid in confirming this information.

The Maker and any endorsers or guarantors hereof waive protest, demand, presentment and notice of dishonor, and agree that this Note may be extended, in whole or in part, without limit as to the number of such extensions, or the period or periods thereof, and without notice to them and without affecting their liability thereon.

It is the intention of the Bank and the Maker to comply strictly with all applicable usury laws; and, accordingly, in no event and upon no contingency shall the holder hereof ever be entitled to receive, collect, or apply as interest any interest, fees, charges, or other payments equivalent to interest, in excess of the maximum rate which the Bank may lawfully charge under applicable statutes and laws from time to time in effect; and, in the event that the holder hereof ever receives, collects, or applies as interest, any such excess, such amount which, but for this provision, would be excessive interest, shall be applied to the reduction of the principal amount of the indebtedness evidenced hereby; and, if the principal amount of the indebtedness evidenced hereby, and all lawful interest thereon, is paid in full, any remaining excess shall forthwith be paid to the Maker, or other party lawfully entitled thereto. All interest paid or agreed to be paid by the Maker shall, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the full period until payment in full of the principal, so that the interest hereon for such full period shall not exceed the maximum amount permitted by applicable law. Any provision hereof, or of any other agreement between the Bank and the Maker, that operates to bind, obligate, or compel the Maker to pay interest in excess of such maximum lawful contract rate shall be construed to require the payment of the maximum rate only. The provisions of this paragraph shall be given precedence over any other provision contained herein or in any other agreement between the Bank and the Maker that is in conflict with the provisions of this paragraph.

This Note shall be governed and construed according to the statutes and laws of the State of Tennessee from time to time in effect, except to the extent that Section 85 of Title 12 of the United States Code (or other applicable federal statute) may permit the charging of a higher rate of interest than applicable state law, in which event such applicable federal statute, as amended and supplemented from time to time, shall govern and control the maximum rate of interest permitted to be charged hereunder; it being intended that, as to the maximum rate of interest which may be charged, received, and collected hereunder, those applicable statutes and laws, whether state or federal, from time to time in effect, which permit the charging of a higher rate of interest, shall govern and control; provided, always, however, that in no event and under no circumstances shall the Maker be liable for the payment of interest in excess of the maximum effective rate permitted by such applicable law, from time to time in effect.

This Note constitutes an increase, renewal and extension of that certain Third Amended and Restated Consolidated Revolving Credit Note dated November 17, 2014, in the principal sum of Forty Million Dollars ($40,000,000.00), as same has been amended, which amended that certain Second Amended and Restated Consolidated Revolving Credit Note dated May 30, 2012, in the principal sum of Thirty-Five Million Dollars ($35,000,000.00), as same has been amended, which amended that certain Consolidated Amended and Restated Promissory Note of the Maker dated June 22, 2007, in the principal sum of Thirty Million Dollars ($30,000,000.00), as same was previously amended by First Amendment to Consolidated, Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Note dated June 1, 2009, which constituted an increase, consolidation, renewal and extension of that certain promissory note dated June 27, 1995, in the principal amount of Two Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($2,500,000.00), that certain promissory note dated July 3, 1996, in the principal amount of Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000.00), that certain consolidated, amended and restated promissory note dated April 26, 2001, in the principal amount of Seven Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($7,500,000.00), that certain promissory note dated April 26, 2001, in the principal amount of Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000.00), and that amended and restated revolving credit note dated April 26, 2001, in the principal amount of Seven Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($7,500,000.00) (the “Prior Notes”), being payable to the order of the Bank, and being executed by the Maker. The indebtedness heretofore evidenced by such Prior Notes is not discharged or cancelled by the execution hereof. From and after the date hereof, said indebtedness evidenced by the Prior Notes shall be evidenced by, and shall be payable in accordance with, the provisions of this Note; and the collateral security which secured the indebtedness heretofore evidenced by said Prior Notes shall continue to secure the indebtedness evidenced hereby.
