SECTION 3 INTEREST, FEES AND EXPENSES 3.1 Interest 3.1.1 Interest on Revolving Loan Account. During the month or months that Revolving Loans are Base Rate Loans, interest on the daily debit balance of the Revolving Loan Account at the close of each day during each month shall be due and payable monthly on the first day of the immediately following month and shall accrue interest at the Base Rate plus 0.25% per annum. During the month or months that Revolving Loans are LIBOR Rate Loans, interest on the daily debit balance of the Revolving Loan Account at the close of each day during each month shall be due and payable monthly on the first day of the immediately following month and shall accrue interest at the LIBOR Rate plus 2.25% per annum. 3.1.2 Selection of Interest Rate. The Company may select the interest rate (i.e., either the Base Rate or the LIBOR Rate) that will apply to all Revolving Loans for a particular calendar month by giving notice to CIT not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on the third (3rd) Business Day prior to the first day of such month. The Base Rate or the LIBOR Rate applicable to any month will be the Base Rate or the LIBOR Rate on the first day of such month, and such Base Rate or LIBOR Rate will remain constant throughout such month and will not fluctuate. If the Company does not notify CIT of its selection of the applicable interest rate (i.e., either the 13 Base Rate or the LIBOR Rate) for any month by 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on the third (3rd) Business Day prior to the first day of such month, the Company will be deemed to have selected for the next month the rate of interest then in effect, which rate will be reset to the Base Rate or the LIBOR Rate in effect on the first day of such month. For the calendar month in which the Closing Date occurs, all Revolving Loans shall be deemed to be outstanding as LIBOR Rate Loans. In the event of a Default or Event of Default, all Revolving Loans shall, at CIT's option, be deemed to be converted to Base Rate Loans, and the Company shall not be permitted to select the LIBOR Rate as the applicable rate of interest. All interest rates shall be calculated based on a 360-day year and actual days elapsed. 3.1.3 Default Interest Rate. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, all Obligations may, at the election of CIT, bear interest at a rate equal to two percent (2.0%) per annum greater than the applicable interest rate charged under this Section 3.1 until such Event of Default is waived by CIT. 3.1.4 Inability to Determine LIBOR Rate. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, (a) if CIT determines in the exercise of its reasonable business judgment (which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon the Company) that by reason of circumstances affecting the interbank LIBOR market, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the LIBOR Rate or (b) if any law, regulation, treaty or directive shall make it unlawful for CIT to make or maintain any LIBOR Rate Loan or shall result in increasing the cost to CIT of making or maintaining any LIBOR Rate Loan, CIT shall give written notice of such determination to the Company, all LIBOR Rate Loans outstanding shall convert automatically to Base Rate Loans and the obligation of CIT thereafter to continue making LIBOR Rate Loans shall be suspended until CIT determines that adequate and reasonable means once again exist for ascertaining the LIBOR Rate or such law, regulation, treaty or directive ceases to be in effect and CIT rescinds the earlier notice. 3.2 Fees and Expenses 3.2.1 Loan Facility Fee. The Company agrees to pay CIT a Loan Facility Fee in the amount set forth in Section 3.2 of the Schedule, which shall be due and payable as set forth in Section 3.2 of the Schedule, and fully earned upon execution of this Agreement by CIT and the Company. 3.2.2 Line of Credit Fee.

Such Line of Credit Fee shall be calculated based on a 360-day year and actual days elapsed. 3.2.3 Annual Renewal Fee. Unless this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 9 hereof, the Company agrees to pay CIT an Annual Renewal Fee in the amount set forth in Section 3.4 of the Schedule, which shall be due and payable as set forth in Section 3.4 of the Schedule, and fully earned upon each Renewal Date. 14 3.2.4 Letter of Credit Guaranty Fees and Charges.

CIT may change the fees that are set forth in Annex C attached hereto from time to time upon notice to the Company; provided, however, any failure to give the Company such notice does not constitute a breach of this Agreement and does not impair CIT's ability to institute any such change. To effectuate any such change in such fees, CIT may in its discretion send or transmit to the Company a new Annex C which shall replace Annex C in effect on the date thereof. 3.2.5 Standard Operational Fees. In addition to all Out-of-Pocket Expenses, the Company agrees to pay CIT (a) CIT's standard fees for the use of CIT's in-house legal department relating to any and all modifications, waivers, releases, legal file reviews or additional collateral with respect to this Agreement, the Collateral and/or the Obligations, (b) CIT's standard charges for any employee of CIT used to conduct any of the examinations, verifications, inspections, physical counts and other valuations (currently $1,000 per person, per day), and (c) CIT's standard charges for each wire transfer made by CIT to or for the benefit of the Company (currently $30 per wire); provided that, such standard charges may be increased by CIT from time to time.

The liens and security interests granted to CIT herein and any other lien or security interest which CIT may have in any other assets of the Company secure payment and performance of all present and future Obligations. (b) Notwithstanding CIT's security interests in the Collateral, to the extent that the Obligations are now or hereafter secured by any assets or property other than the Collateral, or by the guaranty, endorsement, assets or property of any other person, CIT shall have the right in its sole discretion to determine which rights, security, liens, security interests or remedies CIT shall at any time pursue, foreclose upon, relinquish, subordinate, modify or take any other action with respect to, without in any way modifying or affecting any of such rights, security, liens, security interests or remedies, or any of CIT's rights under this Agreement. 4.3 Limited License.

CIT shall have the right, without notice or advertisement, to sell, lease, or otherwise dispose of all or 27 any part of the Collateral whether in its then condition or after further preparation or processing, in the name of the Company or CIT, or in the name of such other party as CIT may designate, either at public or private sale or at any broker's board, in lots or in bulk, for cash or for credit, with or without warranties or representations (including, without limitation, warranties of title, possession, quiet enjoyment and the like), and upon such other terms and conditions as CIT in its sole discretion may deem advisable, and CIT shall have the right to purchase at any such sale. If any Inventory shall require rebuilding, repairing, maintenance or preparation, CIT shall have the right, at its option, to do such of the aforesaid as is necessary, for the purpose of putting the Inventory in such saleable form as CIT shall deem appropriate. The Company agrees, at the request of CIT, to assemble the Inventory, and to make it available to CIT at premises of the Company or elsewhere and to make available to CIT the premises and facilities of the Company for the purpose of CIT's taking possession of, removing or putting the Inventory in saleable form. If notice of intended disposition of any Collateral is required by law, it is agreed that ten (10) days notice shall constitute reasonable notification and full compliance with the law. The net cash proceeds resulting from CIT's exercise of any of the foregoing rights (after deducting all Out-of-Pocket Expenses relating thereto) shall be applied by CIT to the payment of the Obligations, whether due or to become due, in such order as CIT may elect, and the Company shall remain liable to CIT for any deficiencies, and CIT in turn agrees to remit to the Company or its successors or assigns, any surplus resulting therefrom. The enumeration of the foregoing rights is not intended to be exhaustive and the exercise of any right shall not preclude the exercise of any other right of CIT under applicable law or the other Loan Documents, all of which shall be cumulative. SECTION 9 TERMINATION Except as otherwise provided in Section 8.2 hereof, CIT may terminate this Agreement and the Revolving Line of Credit only as of the initial or any subsequent Renewal Date, and then only by giving the Company at least thirty (30) days prior written notice of termination. The Company may terminate this Agreement at any time prior to any Renewal Date upon thirty (30) days prior written notice to CIT. THIS AGREEMENT, UNLESS TERMINATED AS HEREIN PROVIDED, SHALL AUTOMATICALLY CONTINUE FROM RENEWAL DATE TO RENEWAL DATE. All Obligations shall become due and payable in full on the date of any termination hereunder. Pending a final accounting of the Obligations, unless supplied with an indemnity satisfactory to CIT, the Company shall pay to CIT in immediately available funds, or CIT may withhold any credit balances in the Revolving Loan Account as a cash reserve, an amount sufficient to cover any contingent Obligation then outstanding, including, but not limited to, an amount equal to one hundred ten percent (110%) of the face amount of any outstanding Letters of Credit. All of CIT's rights, liens and security interests granted pursuant to the Loan Documents shall continue after any termination of this Agreement until all Obligations have been fully and finally paid and satisfied. SECTION 10 GENERAL INDEMNITY In addition to the Company's agreement to reimburse CIT for Out-of-Pocket Expenses, but without duplication, the Company hereby agrees to indemnify CIT and its officers, directors, employees, attorneys and agents (each, an "Indemnified Party") from, and to defend and hold 28 each Indemnified Party harmless against, any and all losses, liabilities, obligations, claims, actions, judgments, suits, damages, penalties, costs, fees, expenses (including reasonable attorney's fees) of any kind or nature which at any time may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against, any Indemnified Party: (a) as a result of CIT's exercise of (or failure to exercise) any of CIT's rights and remedies hereunder, including, without limitation, (i) any sale or transfer of the Collateral, (ii) the preservation, repair, maintenance, preparation for sale or securing of any Collateral, and (iii) the defense of CIT's interests in the Collateral (including the defense of claims brought by the Company, as a debtor-in-possession or otherwise, any secured or unsecured creditors of the Company, or any trustee or receiver in bankruptcy); (b) as a result of any environmental pollution, hazardous material or environmental clean-up relating to any real property now or previously owned or operated by the Company, the Company's operation and use of any real property now or previously owned or operated by the Company, and the Company's off-site disposal practices; (c) arising from or relating to (i) the maintenance and operation of any Depository Account, (ii) any agreement or document relating to any Depository Account to which any Indemnified Party is party and (iii) any action taken (or failure to act) by any Indemnified Party with respect thereto; (d) arising from any transactions or occurrences relating to Letters of Credit established or opened for the Company's account, the Collateral relating thereto and any drafts or acceptance thereunder, including any such loss, claim or liability arising from any error, omission, negligence, misconduct or other action taken by an Issuing Institution; (e) in connection with any regulatory investigation or proceeding by any regulatory authority or agency having jurisdiction over the Company; and (f) otherwise relating to or arising out of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, or any action taken (or failure to act) by any Indemnified Party with respect thereto; provided that, an Indemnified Party's conduct in connection with the any of the foregoing matters does not constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct, as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction, and provided further, that the Company shall have no indemnification obligations under the Section 10 with respect to any losses, liabilities, obligations, claims, actions, judgments, suits, damages, penalties, costs, fees and expenses to the extent attributable to the failure by CIT or any of its employees, agents or other representatives to act in a commercially reasonable manner in connection with exercise by CIT of its rights and remedies with respect to the Collateral. This indemnification shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment and satisfaction of the Obligations. CIT may from time to time establish Availability Reserves with respect to this indemnity as CIT may deem advisable in the exercise of its reasonable business judgment, and upon termination of this Agreement, CIT may hold such reserves as cash reserves as security for this indemnity. 29 SECTION 11 MISCELLANEOUS 11.1 Waivers. The Company hereby waives diligence, demand, presentment, protest and any notices thereof as well as notices of nonpayment, intent to accelerate and acceleration. No waiver of an Event of Default by CIT shall be effective unless such waiver is in writing and signed by CIT. No delay or failure of CIT to exercise any right or remedy hereunder, whether before or after the happening of any Event of Default, shall impair any such right or remedy, or shall operate as a waiver of such right or remedy, or as a waiver of such Event of Default. A waiver on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to or waiver of any right or remedy on any future occasion. No single or partial exercise by CIT of any right or remedy precludes any other or further exercise thereof, or precludes any other right or remedy. 11.2 Entire Agreement; Amendments; Sale of Interest. (a) This Agreement and the other Loan Documents: (a) constitute the entire agreement between the Company and CIT; (b) supersede any prior agreements (including the agreements set forth in any commitment letter); (c) may be amended only by a writing signed by the Company and CIT; and (d) shall bind and benefit the Company and CIT and their respective successors and assigns, except that the Company shall not have the right to assign (by operation of law or otherwise) its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of CIT. Should the provisions of any other Loan Document conflict with the provisions of this Agreement, the provisions of this Agreement shall apply and govern. (b) The Company hereby consents to CIT's participation, sale, assignment, transfer or other disposition, at any time or times hereafter, of this Agreement and any of the other Loan Documents, or of any portion hereof or thereof, including, without limitation, CIT's rights, title, interests, remedies, powers, and duties hereunder or thereunder. In the case of an assignment, the assignee shall have, to the extent of such assignment, the same rights, benefits and obligations as it would if it were "CIT" hereunder, and CIT shall be relieved, to the extent of any such assignment, of all obligations hereunder upon any such assignment. The Company agrees that it will use its best efforts to assist and cooperate with CIT in any manner reasonably requested by CIT to effect the sale of participations in or assignments of any of the Loan Documents or any portion thereof or interest therein, including, without limitation, assisting in the preparation of appropriate disclosure documents. The Company further agrees that CIT may disclose credit information regarding Borrower and its affiliates to any potential participant or assignee, provided, that, before disclosing any then confidential and non-public information concerning the Borrower or any of its affiliates to any potential participant or assignee, CIT shall obtain in writing from each such recipient appropriate confidentiality undertakings. . 11.3 Usury Limit. In no event shall the Company, upon demand by CIT for payment of any indebtedness relating hereto, by acceleration of the maturity thereof, or otherwise, be obligated to pay interest and fees in excess of the amount permitted by law. Regardless of any provision herein or in any agreement made in connection herewith, CIT shall never be entitled to receive, charge or apply, as interest on any indebtedness relating hereto, any amount in excess of the maximum amount of interest permissible under applicable law. If CIT ever receives, collects or applies any such excess, it shall be deemed a partial repayment of principal and treated as such. 30 If as a result, the entire principal amount of the Obligations is paid in full, any remaining excess shall be refunded to the Company. This Section 11.3 shall control every other provision of the Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any other agreement made in connection herewith. 11.4 Severability. If any provision hereof or of any other Loan Document is held to be illegal or unenforceable, such provision shall be fully severable, and the remaining provisions of the applicable agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall not be affected by such provision's severance. Furthermore, in lieu of any such provision, there shall be added automatically as a part of the applicable agreement a legal and enforceable provision as similar in terms to the severed provision as may be possible. 11.5 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL; JUDICIAL REFERENCE; SERVICE OF PROCESS. (a) TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE COMPANY AND CIT EACH HEREBY WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE LOAN DOCUMENTS OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED THEREUNDER. (b) THE COMPANY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES PERSONAL SERVICE OF PROCESS AND CONSENTS TO SERVICE OF PROCESS BY CERTIFIED OR REGISTERED MAIL, RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED. IN NO EVENT WILL EITHER PARTY BE LIABLE FOR LOST PROFITS OR OTHER SPECIAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES. 11.6 Notices. Except as otherwise herein provided, any notice or other communication required hereunder shall be in writing (messages sent by e-mail or other electronic transmission (other than by telecopier) shall not constitute a writing, however any signature on a document or other writing that is transmitted by e-mail or telecopier shall constitute a valid signature for purposes hereof), and shall be deemed to have been validly served, given or delivered when received by the recipient if hand delivered, sent by commercial overnight courier or sent by facsimile, or three (3) Business Days after deposit in the United States mail, with proper first class postage prepaid and addressed to the party to be notified as follows: (a) if to CIT, at: The CIT Group/Commercial Services, Inc.
