C.
The Borrowers have requested that Lender provide all waivers and consents necessary for the Borrowers to enter into and consummate the transactions contemplated by and through the Approved Sale Agreement and to, upon its receipt of the Initial Approved Sale Payment, release its security interest in the Sale Assets.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the Recitals and the mutual agreements set forth herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:
 
 
 
 
 
1.
Amendments to the Credit Agreement. The Credit Agreement is hereby amended as follows:
 
 
 
 
 
a.
Section 1.1 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by deleting the Section in its entirety and substituting the following therefor:
 
 
 
 
 
 
Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Lender agrees to extend a revolving credit (the "Revolving Credit") to the Borrowers which may be availed of by the Borrowers from time to time during the period from and including the date hereof to but not including the Termination Date, at which time the commitments of the Lender to extend credit under the Revolving Credit shall expire. The maximum amount of Revolving Credit which Lender agrees to extend to Cycle Country Iowa shall not exceed the lesser of (i) the Revolving Credit Commitment, or (ii) the Borrowing Base as determined on the most recent Borrowing Base Certificate. During the period from and including the date hereof to but not including the Termination Date, Cycle Country Iowa may use the Revolving Credit Commitment by borrowing, repaying and reborrowing Revolving Credit Loans in whole or in part.
 
 
 
 
 
b.
Section 1.2 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by deleting the Section in its entirety and substituting the following therefor:
 
 
 
 
 
 
Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Revolving Credit may be availed of by the Borrowers in the form of loans (individually a "Revolving Credit Loan" and collectively the "Revolving Credit Loans") to Cycle Country Iowa, as the operating company. Each Revolving Credit Loan shall be in a minimum amount of $10,000. Each advance made by the Lender of a Revolving Credit Loan shall be made against and evidenced by a Revolving Credit Note of the Borrowers (each, a "Revolving Credit Note" and together, the "Revolving Credit Notes") payable to the order of the Lender in the principal amount stated thereon; provided, however, that the aggregate principal amount set forth on the Revolving Credit Notes shall not exceed the Revolving Credit Commitment. Each Revolving Credit Note shall be dated the date of issuance thereof, bear interest as set forth in Section 2 hereof, and mature on the Termination Date. Unless a Revolving Note sets forth a different time upon which interest is payable, interest on the Revolving Credit Notes shall be payable monthly on the 25th day of each month (commencing September 25, 2011) and at maturity of the Revolving Credit Notes (whether by lapse of time, acceleration or otherwise). Interest after maturity shall be due and payable upon demand. Without regard to the principal amount of Revolving Credit Notes stated on the faces of such notes, the actual principal amount at any time outstanding and owing by the Borrowers on account of the Revolving Credit Notes shall be the sum of all advances theretofore made under this Section less all payments of principal actually received.
 
 
 
 
 
Immediately prior to the date of the Ninth Amendment, Lender issued and there was then outstanding the following Revolving Credit Notes of Borrowers: Note # 5003694, issued on January 5, 2005 in the original principal amount of $1,000,000 and with an outstanding principal balance, as of the date of this Amendment, of $1,000,000; Note # 5005619, originally issued on July 16, 2010, with a current principal amount of $1,000,000, and with an outstanding principal balance, as of the date of the Ninth Amendment, of $1,000,000.

Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including without limitation the terms of the Ninth Amendment, effective upon the date of the
 
 
 
 
 
Ninth Amendment, the Lender agrees that the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Credit Loans will be $4,100,000 (the "2011 Revolving Loan") (the temporary increase of available credit and subsequent reduction is reflected in the amended definition of Revolving Credit Commitment set forth in the Ninth Amendment). The 2011 Revolving Loan shall be evidenced by the Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Note of the Borrowers substantially in the form (with appropriate insertions) attached as Exhibit A to the Ninth Amendment payable to order of the Lender (the "Amended and Restated Revolving Note") in the principal amount of $4,100,000.
 
 
 
 
 
The Amended and Restated Revolving Note, amends and restates Note # 5003694 and Note # 5005619 in their entirety and acts, in part to temporarily increase the Revolving Credit Commitment and to amend the maturity to the Termination Date, and is not intended as a novation of any Obligations.
 
 
 
 
 
All amounts due and owing with respect to the Revolving Credit shall be due and payable on the Termination Date, unless due and payable sooner pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

i.

ii.
the entire unpaid principal balance of the Term Loan evidenced by Term Note Three and any unpaid interest thereon shall be due and payable in full on January 1, 2012, the final maturity of Term Note Three. Interest after maturity shall be due and payable upon demand.
 
 
 
 
 
 
All repayments on the Term Notes shall be applied first to interest owing thereunder and the balance, if any, to the reduction of principal. The monthly payment amounts shall not be affected by changes in the Prime Rate, where applicable, but such changes will affect the final payment due at maturity (whether by lapse of time, acceleration, or otherwise) of the Term Notes. Principal payments made by the Borrowers on the Term Loan may not be reborrowed.
