(Denver time) on the requested date of Advance if the Advance is requested as a Base Rate Loan. Each request for an Advance hereunder shall be irrevocable and shall be deemed a representation by the Borrower that on the requested date of Advance and after giving effect to the requested Revolving Loans the applicable conditions specified in Article 6 have been and will be satisfied. Each request for an Advance hereunder shall specify (i) the requested date of Advance, (ii) the aggregate amount of the Advance to be made on such date which shall be in the minimum amounts set forth in 2.1(d), (iii) whether the Advances are to be funded as Eurodollar Rate Loans or Base Rate Loans (and, if such Advance is to be made with more than one applicable interest rate choice, specifying the amounts to which each interest rate choice is applicable) and (iv) in the case of Eurodollar Rate Advances, the duration of the initial Interest Period applicable thereto. The Agent may rely on any telephone request for Revolving Loans hereunder which it believes in good faith to be genuine; and the Borrower hereby waives the right to dispute the Agent's record of the terms of such telephone request. The Agent shall promptly notify each other Lender of the receipt of such request, the matters specified therein, and of such Lender's ratable share of the requested Advance. (ii) Funding from Lenders. On the date of the requested Advance, each Lender shall provide its share of the requested Advance to the Agent in immediately available funds not later than 2:30 P.M.

Unless the Agent determines that any applicable condition specified in Article 6 has not been satisfied, the Agent will make available to the Borrower at the Agent's principal office in Denver, Colorado in immediately available funds not later than 3:00 P.M. (Denver time) on the requested date of Advance the amount of the requested Advance. If the Agent has made an Advance to the Borrower on behalf of a Lender but has not received the amount of such Advance from such Lender by the time herein required, such Lender shall pay interest to the Agent on the amount so advanced at the overnight Federal Funds Rate from the date of such Advance to the date funds are received by the Agent from such Lender, such interest to be payable with such remittance from such Lender of the principal amount of such Advance (provided, however, that the Agent shall not make any Advance on behalf of a Lender if the Agent has received prior notice from such Bank that it will not make such Revolving Loan). If the Agent does not receive payment from such Lender by the next Business Day after the date of any Advance, the Agent shall be entitled to recover such Advance, with interest thereon at the rate (or rates) then applicable to the Advance, on demand, from the Borrower, without prejudice to the Agent's and the Borrower's rights against such Lender. If such Lender pays the Agent the amount herein required with interest at the overnight Federal Funds Rate before the Agent has recovered from the Borrower, such Lender shall be entitled to the interest payable by the Borrower with respect to the Advance in question accruing from the date the Agent made such Advance Agent shall be entitled to honor any request for an Advance that it reasonably believes to be genuine, whether or not the person making the request is named as an authorized person in any corporate resolution or instruction furnished to Agent by Borrower.

(d) Interest Rate. As part of its notice for an Advance, Borrower must select an Interest Period of one, two, three or six months. Borrower may also select a daily rate option, which shall be based upon the Base Rate. (e) Repayment. Borrower promises to pay to Lenders the outstanding principal of Advances under the Revolving Line of Credit in full upon the earlier to occur of (a) termination of this Agreement, (b) acceleration of the time for payment of the Indebtedness pursuant to this Agreement or (c) on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date. Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, any amounts borrowed under the Revolving Credit Commitment may be voluntarily prepaid in the minimum amounts of (x) in the case of a Eurodollar Rate Loan, $500,000 or such greater amount that is an integral multiple of $100,000 or (y) in the case of a Base Rate Loan, $100,000 or such greater amount that is an integral of $10,000, and any amounts so prepaid may be reborrowed, up to the amount available under Section 2.1(a) above at the time of such Borrowing, until the Business Day next preceding the Revolving Credit Maturity Date. Borrower shall notify Lender by 1:00 p.m. on any Business Day of any prepayment of a Base Rate Loan. Except as otherwise agreed to in writing by the Lenders, Borrower shall also be required to use all Net Proceeds to repay the then-current Outstandings up to the total amount of such Net Proceeds. Any prepayment of any kind shall also be subject to any fees required under Section 4.3. During the term of the Facility, Borrower shall pay to Agent such amounts as are necessary so that the sum of the outstanding principal balance of the Revolving Credit Outstandings and the Letter of Credit Outstandings in the aggregate at any time does not exceed the Total Revolving Credit Commitment (including the limitations in Section 2.1 (d)) at such time. Borrower shall pay such amounts within two (2) Business Days after the earlier of demand by Agent and the date Borrower learns of any such excess in the aggregate amount of the Revolving Credit Outstandings and the Letter of Credit Outstandings over the Total Revolving Credit Commitment. 2.2 REDUCTIONS. The Borrower shall, by notice from an Authorized Representative, have the right from time to time but not more frequently than once each calendar month, upon not less than three (3) Business Days' written notice to the Agent, effective upon receipt, to reduce the Total Revolving Credit Commitment. The Agent shall give each Lender, within one (1) Business Day of receipt of such notice, telefacsimile notice, or telephonic notice (confirmed in writing), of such reduction. Each such reduction shall be in the aggregate amount of $1,000,000 or such greater amount which is in an integral multiple of $250,000 or the entire remaining Total Revolving Credit Commitment, and shall permanently reduce the Total Revolving Credit Commitment. Each reduction of the Total Revolving Credit Commitment shall be accompanied by payment to the extent that the principal amount of Revolving Credit Outstandings plus Letter of Credit Outstandings exceeds the Total Revolving Credit Commitment. 2.3 FUNDING LOSSES. The Borrower shall compensate each Lender, upon its written request, for all losses, expenses and liabilities (including any interest paid by such Lender to lenders of funds borrowed by it to make or carry Eurodollar Rate Loans to the extent not recovered by such Lender in connection with the re-employment of such funds and including loss of anticipated profits) which such Lender may sustain: (i) if for any reason, other than a default by such Lender, a funding of a Eurodollar Rate Loan does not occur on the date 10 specified therefor in the Borrower's request or notice as to such Advance of the maturity under Section 2.1, or (ii) if, for whatever reason (including, but not limited to, acceleration of Advances following an Event of Default), any repayment of a Eurodollar Rate Loan, or a conversion pursuant to Section 4.1, occurs on any day other than the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto. A Lender's request for compensation shall set forth the basis for the amount requested and shall be final, conclusive and binding, absent error. 3. LETTERS OF CREDIT. 3.1 AMOUNT. In connection with Facility, Borrower may, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, request Letters of Credit to be issued in an amount not to exceed the Total Letter of Credit Commitment and in the event and to the extent the Issuing Bank issues a Letter of Credit on behalf of Borrower, the Total Revolving Credit Commitment shall be considered utilized by the amount of such Letter of Credit. Amounts drawn under any Letter of Credit and honored by the Issuing Bank but not immediately reimbursed by Borrower shall become an Advance hereunder in such amount, at such time and subject to the terms of this Agreement, whether or not any Event of Default has occurred. All Letters of Credit issued under this Agreement shall reduce the amount available under the Total Revolving Credit Commitment. At no time shall the aggregate amount of Letter of Credit Outstandings exceed the Total Letter of Credit Commitment; provided, however, that upon expiration or termination of any Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank may determine to issue, or cause to be issued, additional Letters of Credit provided that, in connection with any such additional Letter of Credit, the Total Letter of Credit Commitment shall not be exceeded and the other terms and conditions set forth herein have been satisfied. The Issuing Bank shall not be obligated to issue Letters of Credit that would cause all outstanding Letters of Credit to exceed the Total Letter of Credit Commitment. The Issuing Bank shall not be obligated to issue Letters of Credit with an expiration date that extends beyond one year of the date of issuance. 3.2 COLLATERAL. Borrower hereby expressly agrees that Borrower's obligations relating to any Letter of Credit are secured by the Collateral. 4.

If the Agent does not receive a Borrowing Notice or an interest rate selection notice giving notice of election of the duration of an Interest Period or of Conversion of any Base Rate Loan to or Continuation of a Eurodollar Rate Loan as a Eurodollar Rate Loan by the time prescribed by Section 4.1(b) the Borrower shall be deemed to have elected to obtain or Convert such Eurodollar Rate Loan to (or Continue such Base Rate Loan as) a Base Rate Loan until the Borrower notifies the Agent. The Borrower shall not be entitled to request or elect to Continue any Eurodollar Rate Loan as a Eurodollar Rate Loan, or Convert any Base Rate Loan into a Eurodollar Rate Loan, if a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. (b) Conversions and Elections of Subsequent Interest Periods. Subject to the limitations set forth in the definition of "Interest Period" and in this Section 4.1, the Borrower may: (i) upon delivery of telephonic notice to the Agent (which shall be irrevocable) on or before 10:00 A.M. Denver time on any Business Day, Convert any Eurodollar Rate Loan to a Base Rate Loan on the last day of the Interest Period for such Eurodollar Rate Loan; and 11 (ii) provided that no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, upon delivery of telephonic notice to the Agent (which shall be irrevocable) on or before 10:00 A.M.

Each such notice shall be effective upon receipt by the Agent, shall specify the amount of the Eurodollar Rate Loan affected and, if a Continuation as or Conversion into a Eurodollar Rate Loan, the Interest Period to be used in the computation of interest. The Authorized Representative shall provide the Agent written confirmation of each such telephonic notice in the form of Borrowing Notice or interest rate selection notice (as applicable) with appropriate insertions but failure to provide such confirmation shall not affect the validity of such telephonic notice. Notice of receipt of such Borrowing Notice or interest rate selection notice, as the case may be, shall be provided by the Agent to each Lender by telefacsimile transmission with reasonable promptness, but (provided the Agent shall have received such notice by 10:00 A.M.

The Applicable Margin shall `be determined quarterly based upon the Borrower's Consolidated Leverage Ratio, and will be adjusted, as necessary, within five (5) business days of the receipt of the financial statements required to be provided to Lenders pursuant to this Agreement. (d) Interest Payments. Interest accrued on Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be payable by Borrower in arrears on the last Business Day of the Interest Period selected by the Borrower pursuant to 2.1(f); provided, however, that in no event shall interest payments be made less than quarterly. In the case of any Base Rate Loan, interest shall be due and payable monthly in arrears on the first Business Day of the month. (e) Default Interest. Notwithstanding the rates of interest specified in Sections 4.1(a) and 4.1(b) and the payment dates specified in herein, effective immediately upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, the principal balance of all outstanding Revolving Loans and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, any interest payments on such Revolving Loans shall bear interest payable upon demand at the Default Rate. In addition, all other amounts due Agent or the Lenders (whether directly or for reimbursement) under this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents, if not paid when due or, in the event no time period is expressed, if not paid within five (5) days after written notice from Agent that the same has become due, shall thereafter bear interest at the Default Rate.

(c) Letter of Credit Fronting and Administrative Fees. Borrower agrees to pay Agent a fronting fee equal to 1/8 of 1% (0.125%) per annum of the face amount of each Letter of Credit requested by Borrower, if any.

Borrower also agrees to pay all present and future expenses, charges, costs and fees of any Letter of Credit application, including, without limitation, all attorneys' fees and expenses of the Issuing Lender or other Lender. (d) Agent Fees. Borrower agrees to pay to the Agent, for the Agent's individual account, an annual Agent's fee, such fee to be payable in such amounts and at such dates as agreed to by the Borrower and Agent in writing. (e) Payment of Fees. The fees described in this Section 4.2 represent compensation for services rendered and to be rendered separate and apart from the lending of money or the provision of credit and do not constitute compensation for the use, detention or forbearance of money. The obligation of Borrower to pay the fees described herein shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, the obligation of Borrower to pay interest, other fees and expenses otherwise described in this Agreement. All fees shall be payable when due in Colorado in immediately available funds and shall be non-refundable when paid. If Borrower fails to make, when due, any payment of fees or expenses specified or referred to in this Agreement due to Agent or the Lenders, including, without limitation, those referred to in this Section or elsewhere in this Agreement or in any separate fee agreement between Borrower and Agent or any other Lender relating to this Agreement, the amount due shall bear interest until paid at Default Rate (but not to exceed the maximum rate permitted by applicable law). Furthermore, such amount shall constitute part of the Facility, secured by all of the Collateral. 4.3 COMPUTATION OF INTEREST AND FEES. Interest and fees shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in the period during which interest or fees accrue and a year of three hundred sixty (360) days; provided however, that Base Rate Loans shall be computed based upon a three hundred sixty-five (365) or three hundred sixty-six (366) day year, as appropriate. Notwithstanding any of the terms and conditions contained in this Section, interest in respect of the Revolving Credit Outstandings and Letter of Credit Outstandings shall not exceed the maximum rate permitted by applicable law. 4.4 DEFICIENCY ADVANCES; FAILURE TO PURCHASE PARTICIPATIONS. No Lender shall be responsible for any default of any other Lender in respect to such other Lender's obligation to make any Advance hereunder or to fund its purchase of any Participation hereunder nor shall the Revolving Credit Commitment or Letter of Credit Commitment of any Lender hereunder be increased as a result of such default of any other Lender. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event any Lender shall fail to advance funds to the Borrower as herein provided, the Agent may in its discretion, but shall not be obligated to, advance under the applicable Note in its favor as a Lender all or any portion of such amount or amounts (each, a "deficiency advance") and shall thereafter be entitled to payments of principal of and interest on such deficiency advance in the same manner and at the same interest rate or rates to which such other Lender would have been entitled had it made such Advance under its Note; provided that, (i) such defaulting Lender shall not be entitled to receive payments of principal, interest or fees with respect to such deficiency advance until such deficiency advance (together with interest thereon as provided in clause (ii)) shall be paid by such Lender and (ii) upon payment to the Agent from such other Lender of the entire outstanding amount of each such deficiency advance, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon, from the most recent date or dates interest was paid to the Agent by a Borrower on each Loan comprising the deficiency advance at the Federal Funds Rate, then such payment shall be credited against the applicable Note of the Agent in full payment of such deficiency advance and such Borrower shall be deemed to have borrowed the amount of such deficiency advance from such other Lender as of the most recent date or dates, as the case may be, upon which any payments of interest were made by such Borrower thereon. In the event any Lender shall fail to fund its purchase of a Participation after notice from the Issuing Bank such Lender shall pay to the Issuing Bank such 13 amount on demand, together with interest at the Federal Funds Rate on the amount so due from the date of such notice to the date such purchase price is received by the Issuing Bank. 4.5 ACCOUNT STATED. Borrower agrees that each monthly or other statement of account mailed or delivered by Agent to Borrower pertaining to the outstanding balance of Advances under the Revolving Line of Credit, the amount of interest due thereon, fees, and costs and expenses shall be final, conclusive, and binding on Borrower and shall constitute an "account stated" with respect to the matters contained therein unless, within thirty (30) calendar days after such statement is mailed or, if not mailed, delivered to Borrower, Borrower shall deliver to Agent written notice of any objections which it may have as to such statement of account, and in such event, only the items to which objection is expressly made in such notice shall be considered to be disputed by Borrower. 5.

If Lenders takes any action contemplated by this Section with respect to any receivable, Borrower shall not exercise any right that Borrower would otherwise have had to take such action with respect to such receivable. 12.5 ENDORSEMENT OF CHECKS; BORROWER'S MAIL. Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints Lenders as Borrower's agent with full power, in the same manner, to the same extent, and with the same effect as if Borrower were to do the same: upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, or an event which with notice or lapse of time, or both, would constitute an Event of Default, to endorse Borrower's name on any instruments or documents pertaining to any Collateral, to receive and collect all mail addressed to Borrower, to direct the place of delivery of such mail to any location designated by Lenders, to open such mail, to remove all contents therefrom, and to retain all contents thereof constituting or relating to the Collateral.

No course of dealing between Borrower and Lenders and no delay or omission by Lenders in exercising any right or remedy under the Transaction Documents or with respect to any Indebtedness shall operate as a waiver thereof or of any other right or remedy, and no single or partial exercise thereof shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or remedy.

(a) If after receipt of any payment of all, or any part of, the Indebtedness, Lenders are, for any reason, compelled to surrender such payment to any person or entity because such payment is determined to be void or voidable as a preference, an impermissible setoff, or a diversion of trust funds, or for any other reason, the Transaction Documents shall continue in full force and Borrower shall be liable, and shall indemnify and hold Lenders harmless for, the amount of such payment surrendered. The provisions of this Section shall be and remain effective notwithstanding any contrary action which may have been taken by Lenders in reliance upon such payment, and any such contrary action so taken shall be without prejudice to Lenders' rights under the Transaction Documents and shall be deemed to have been conditioned upon such payment having become final and irrevocable. The provisions of this Section 13.14(a) shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the Transaction Documents.

Borrower further agrees that Lenders has no duty to warn Borrower or any other person or entity about any actual or potential environmental contamination or other problem that may have become apparent, or will become apparent, to Lenders. The provisions of this Section 13.14(b) shall survive repayment of the Indebtedness. (c) Borrower agrees to pay, indemnify, and hold Lenders harmless from and against, any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses, or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (including, without limitation, counsel and special counsel fees and disbursements in connection with any litigation, investigation, hearing, or other proceeding) with respect, or in any way related, to the existence, execution, delivery, enforcement, performance, and administration of this Agreement and any other Transaction Document (all of the foregoing, collectively, the "Indemnified Liabilities"). The provisions of this Section 13.14(c) shall survive repayment of the Indebtedness. 13.15 TERMINATION.

Lenders may terminate this Agreement immediately and without notice upon the occurrence of an Event of Default. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything in this Agreement or elsewhere to the contrary, the Security Interest, Lenders' rights and remedies under the Transaction Documents and Borrower's obligations and liabilities under the Transaction Documents, shall survive any termination of this Agreement and shall remain in full force and effect until all of the Indebtedness outstanding, or contracted or committed for (whether or not outstanding), before the receipt of such notice by Lenders, and any extensions or renewals thereof (whether made before or after receipt of such notice), together with interest accruing thereon after such notice, shall be finally and irrevocably paid in full. No Collateral shall be released or financing statement terminated until: (i) such final and irrevocable payment in full of the Indebtedness as described in the preceding sentence; and (ii) Borrower and Lenders execute a mutual general release, subject to Section 13.14 of this Agreement, in form and substance satisfactory to the Lenders and Borrower and their counsel.

The provisions of this Agreement are independent of, and separable from, each other, and no such provision shall be affected or rendered invalid or unenforceable by virtue of the fact that for any reason any other such provision may be invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part. If any provision of this Agreement is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such provision shall be ineffective in such jurisdiction only to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability, and such prohibition or unenforceability shall not invalidate the balance of such provision to the extent it is not prohibited or unenforceable nor render prohibited or unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. 13.22 INCONSISTENT PROVISIONS. The terms of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents shall be cumulative except to the extent that they are specifically inconsistent with each other, in which case the terms of this Agreement shall prevail. 13.23 ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This Agreement, the Exhibits and Schedules attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference, and the other Transaction Documents constitute the entire agreement and understanding between the parties hereto with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby and supersede all prior negotiations, understandings, and agreements between such parties with respect to such transactions, including, without limitation, those expressed in any commitment letter delivered by Lenders to Borrower. 13.24 APPLICABLE LAW.
