The Notes will be issued pursuant to an Indenture (the “Indenture”) dated as of the Closing Date (as defined in Section 2) among the Company, the Guarantors and Wachovia Bank, National Association, as Trustee (the “Trustee”). The Initial Purchasers and their direct and indirect transferees will be entitled to the benefits of a Registration Rights Agreement, to be dated the Closing Date, between the Initial Purchasers and the Company (the “Registration Rights Agreement”).

The Notes (and the related Guarantees) will be offered and sold through the Initial Purchasers without being registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder (collectively, the “Securities Act”), to qualified institutional buyers in compliance with the exemption from registration provided by Rule 144A under the Securities Act and in offshore transactions in reliance on Regulation S under the Securities Act (“Regulation S”).

(b) The Company will furnish to the Initial Purchasers and to Counsel for the Initial Purchasers prior to 10:00 a.m. New York City time on the business day next succeeding the date of this Agreement and during the period referred to in paragraph (c) below, without charge, as many copies of the Final Memorandum and any amendments and supplements thereto as they reasonably may request.

(c) At any time prior to the completion of the distribution of the Notes by the Initial Purchasers, if any event occurs or condition exists as a result of which the Final Memorandum would include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, or if it should be necessary to amend or supplement the Final Memorandum to comply with applicable law, the Company will promptly (i) notify the Initial Purchasers of the same; (ii) subject to the requirements of paragraph (a) of this Section 4, prepare and provide to the Initial Purchasers, at its own expense, an amendment or supplement to the Final Memorandum so that the Final Memorandum, as so amended or supplemented, will not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated thereon or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading or so that the Final Memorandum, as so amended or supplemented, will comply with applicable law; and (iii) supply such supplemented or amended Final Memorandum to the Initial Purchasers and Counsel for the Initial Purchasers, without charge, in such quantities as may be reasonably requested.

(d) The Company will (i) qualify the Notes and the Guarantees for sale by the Initial Purchasers under the laws of such jurisdictions as the Representative may designate and (ii) maintain such qualifications for so long as required for the sale of the Notes by the Initial Purchasers.

(i) The Company agrees that it will not and will cause its Affiliates not to make any offer or sale of securities of the Company of any class if, as a result of the doctrine of “integration” referred to in Rule 502 under the Securities Act, such offer or sale would render invalid (for the purpose of (i) the sale of the Notes by the Company to the Initial Purchasers, (ii) the resale of the Notes by the Initial Purchasers to any subsequent purchasers or (iii) the resale of the Notes by such subsequent purchasers to others) the exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act provided by Section 4 thereof or by Rule 144A or by Regulation S thereunder or otherwise.

-14-

of the Notes and to each prospective purchaser (as designated by such holder) of the Notes, upon the request of such holder or prospective purchaser, any information required to be provided by Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act. (This covenant is intended to be for the benefit of the holders, and the prospective purchasers designated by such holders from time to time, of the Notes.)

(n) The Company will not, directly or indirectly, offer, sell, contract to sell or otherwise dispose of any debt securities of the Company or options or rights to purchase debt securities of the Company substantially similar to the Notes (other than the Notes offered pursuant to this Agreement) for a period of 180 days after the date hereof, without the prior written consent of the Representative.

(o) The Company will cooperate with the Initial Purchasers and use its reasonable best efforts to permit the Notes to be eligible for clearance and settlement through the facilities of The Depository Trust Company.

It is understood, however, that the Initial Purchasers will pay the fees and disbursements of their counsel.

(b) If the sale of the Notes provided for herein is not consummated because any condition to the obligations of the Initial Purchasers set forth in Section 6 hereof is not satisfied, because this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 9 hereof or because of any failure, refusal or inability on the part of the Company to perform all obligations and satisfy all conditions on its part to be performed or satisfied hereunder other than by reason of a default by any of the Initial Purchasers, the Company will reimburse the Initial Purchasers upon demand for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including counsel fees and disbursements) that shall have been incurred by them in connection with the proposed purchase and sale of the Notes.

6. Conditions to the Initial Purchasers’ Obligations. The obligations of the several Initial Purchasers to purchase and pay for the Notes shall be subject to the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the Company in Section 1 hereof, in each case as of the date hereof and as of the Closing Date, as if made on and as of the Closing Date, to the accuracy of the statements of the Company’s officers made pursuant to the provisions hereof, to the performance by the Company of its covenants and agreements hereunder and to the following additional conditions:

7. Indemnification and Contribution. (a) The Company and each Guarantor, jointly and severally, agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Initial Purchaser, its affiliates, directors and officers and each person, if any, who controls (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) any Initial Purchaser against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which such Initial Purchaser or such other person may become subject, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the Preliminary Memorandum or the Final Memorandum or any amendment or supplement thereto, (ii) the omission or alleged omission to state in the Preliminary Memorandum or the Final Memorandum or any amendment or supplement thereto a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading, and will reimburse, as incurred, each Initial Purchaser and each such other person for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Initial Purchaser or such other person in connection with investigating, defending against or appearing as a third-party witness in connection with any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the Company and the Guarantors will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in any Preliminary Memorandum, the Final Memorandum or any amendment or supplement thereto, in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Initial Purchasers through the Representative specifically for use therein as set forth in Section 11 hereof.

(b) Each Initial Purchaser, severally and not jointly, will indemnify and hold harmless the Company and the Guarantors and their respective affiliates, directors, officers, and each person, if any, who controls any of the Company and the Guarantors within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which the Company, the Guarantors, any such affiliates, directors or officers or such controlling person may become subject, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the Preliminary Memorandum or the Final Memorandum or any amendment or supplement thereto, or (ii) the omission or alleged omission to state in the Preliminary Memorandum or the Final Memorandum or any amendment or supplement thereto a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, in each case, to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by the Initial Purchasers through the Representative specifically for use therein as set forth in Section 11 hereof and, subject to the limitation set forth immediately preceding this clause, will reimburse as incurred, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Company or the Guarantors or any such affiliates, directors or officers or such controlling person in connection with investigating, defending against or appearing as a third-party witness in connection with, any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action in respect thereof.

(c) Promptly after receipt by any person to whom indemnity may be available under this Section 7 (the “indemnified party”) of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against any person from whom

-19-

indemnity may be sought under this Section 7 (the “indemnifying party”), notify such indemnifying party of the commencement thereof; but the failure so to notify such indemnifying party will not relieve such indemnifying party from any liability which it may have to such indemnified party otherwise than under this Section 7. In case any such action is brought against any indemnified party, and such indemnified party notifies the relevant indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, such indemnifying party will be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it may wish, to assume the defense thereof, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, with counsel satisfactory to such indemnified party; provided, however, that if the named parties in any such action (including impleaded parties) include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have concluded, based on advice of outside counsel, that there may be one or more legal defenses available to it and/or other indemnified parties which are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party or that representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them, the indemnifying party shall not have the right to direct the defense of such action on behalf of such indemnified party or parties and such indemnified party or parties shall have the right to select separate counsel to defend such action on behalf of such indemnified party or parties. After notice from an indemnifying party to an indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof and approval by such indemnified party of counsel appointed to defend such action, such indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified party under this Section 7 for any legal or other expenses, other than reasonable costs of investigation, subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof, unless (i) such indemnified party shall have employed separate counsel in accordance with the proviso to the immediately preceding sentence or (ii) such indemnifying party does not promptly retain counsel satisfactory to such indemnified party or (iii) such indemnifying party has authorized the employment of counsel for such indemnified party at the expense of the indemnifying party. After such notice from an indemnifying party to an indemnified party, such indemnifying party will not be liable for the costs and expenses of any settlement of such action effected by such indemnified party without the written consent of such indemnifying party. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, if at any time an indemnified party shall have requested an indemnifying party to reimburse the indemnified party for fees and expenses of counsel as contemplated by (i), (ii) or (iii) of the third sentence of this paragraph, the indemnifying party agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent if (x) such settlement is entered into more than 30 days after receipt by such indemnifying party of the aforesaid request and (y) such indemnifying party shall not have reimbursed the indemnified party in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement. An indemnifying party will not, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment in any pending or threatened claim, action, suit or proceeding in respect of which indemnification may be sought hereunder (whether or not the indemnified party or any other person that may be entitled to indemnification hereunder is a party to such claim, action, suit or proceeding) unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of the indemnified party and such other persons from all liability arising out of such claim, action, suit or proceeding and does not include an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act, by or on behalf of such indemnified party.

(d) (i) In circumstances in which the indemnity agreement provided for in the preceding paragraphs of this Section 7 is unavailable or insufficient, for any reason, to hold

-20-

harmless an indemnified party in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (including, without limitation, any legal or other expenses incurred in connection with defending or investigating any action or claim) (or actions in respect thereof) (“Losses”), the Company and the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Initial Purchasers, on the other, in order to provide for just and equitable contribution, agree to contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such Losses to which the Company and the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Initial Purchasers, on the other, may be subject, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company and the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Initial Purchasers, on the other, from the offering of the Notes or (ii) if the allocation provided by the foregoing clause (i) is unavailable for any reason, not only such relative benefits but also the relative fault of the Company and the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Initial Purchasers, on the other, in connection with the statements or omissions or alleged statements or omissions that resulted in such Losses. The relative benefits received by the Company and the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Initial Purchasers, on the other, shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses) received by the Company bear to the total discounts and commissions received by the Initial Purchasers from the Company in connection with the purchase of the Notes hereunder. The relative fault of the parties shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company, the Guarantors or the Initial Purchasers, the parties’ intent, relative knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission, and any other equitable considerations appropriate in the circumstances. The Company, the Guarantors and the Initial Purchasers agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation (even if the Initial Purchasers were treated as one entity for such purpose) that does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to above. Notwithstanding any other provision of this paragraph (d), no Initial Purchaser shall be obligated to make contributions hereunder that in the aggregate exceed the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by such Initial Purchaser from the Company in connection with the purchase of the Notes hereunder, and no person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Initial Purchasers’ respective obligations to contribute hereunder are several in proportion to their respective obligations to purchase Notes as set forth on Schedule I hereto and not joint. For purposes of this paragraph (d), each person, if any, who controls an Initial Purchaser within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act and each other person listed in Section 7(a) hereof shall have the same rights to contribution as such Initial Purchaser, and each affiliate, director or officer of the Company or the Guarantors and each person, if any, who controls the Company and the Guarantors within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, shall have the same rights to contribution as the Company and the Guarantors.

(e) The obligations of the Company and the Guarantors under this Section 7 shall be in addition to any obligations or liabilities that the Company and the Guarantors may otherwise have and the obligations of the respective Initial Purchasers under this Section 7 shall be in addition to any obligations or liabilities that the Initial Purchasers may otherwise have.

-21-

8. Survival. The respective representations, warranties, agreements, covenants, indemnities and other statements of the Company, the Guarantors, their respective officers, and the several Initial Purchasers set forth in this Agreement or made by or on behalf of them, respectively, pursuant to this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect, regardless of (i) any investigation made by or on behalf of the Company, the Guarantors, their respective officers or directors or any controlling person referred to in Section 7 hereof or any Initial Purchaser and (ii) delivery of and payment for the Notes. The respective agreements, covenants, indemnities and other statements set forth in Sections 5 and 7 hereof shall remain in full force and effect, regardless of any termination or cancellation of this Agreement.

9. Termination. (a) The Representative may terminate this Agreement with respect to the Notes by notice to the Company at any time on or prior to the Closing Date in the event that the Company shall have failed, refused or been unable to perform in any material respect its obligations under the Transaction Documents or to satisfy in any material respect any condition to be performed or satisfied by it hereunder at or prior thereto or if, at or prior to the Closing Date (i) trading in securities generally on the New York Stock Exchange, the NASDAQ National Market or in the over-the-counter market, or trading in any securities of the Company on the NASDAQ National Market or in the over-the-counter market, shall have been suspended or minimum or maximum prices shall have been established on any such exchange or market; (ii) there has been a material disruption in commercial banking or securities settlement, payment or clearance services in the United States; (iii) a banking moratorium shall have been declared by New York, North Carolina, Delaware or United States authorities; or (iv) there shall have been (A) an outbreak or escalation of hostilities between the United States and any foreign power, (B) an outbreak or escalation of any other insurrection or armed conflict involving the United States, (C) the occurrence of any other calamity or crisis involving the United States or (D) any change in general economic, political or financial conditions which has an effect on the U.S. financial markets or the international financial markets that, in the case of any event described in this clause (iv), in the sole judgment of the Representative, makes it impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the offering, sale or delivery of the Notes on the terms and in the manner described in the Final Memorandum (exclusive of any amendment or supplement thereto subsequent to the date of the Final Memorandum).

(b) Termination of this Agreement pursuant to this Section 9 shall be without liability of any party to any other party except as provided in Sections 5 and 7 hereof.

If the non-defaulting Initial Purchasers or other Initial Purchasers satisfactory to the Initial Purchasers do not elect to purchase the Remaining Notes, this Agreement shall terminate without liability on the part of any non-defaulting Initial Purchaser or the Company, except that the Company will continue to be liable for the payment of expenses to the extent set forth herein.

Nothing contained in this Agreement shall relieve a defaulting Initial Purchaser of any liability it may have to the Company for damages caused by its default.

Exhibit B - 3

EXHIBIT C

Form of Local Counsel Opinion

The opinion of local counsel for the Company to be delivered pursuant to Section 6(a)(iii) of the Purchase Agreement shall be to the effect that:

A. Such Guarantor is a corporation incorporated, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Minnesota with corporate power to conduct any lawful business activity.

B. Such Guarantor has the corporate power to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under the Transaction Documents executed by it, and has taken all requisite corporate action to authorize the execution and delivery of, and the performance of its obligations under, the Transaction Documents executed by the Guarantor.

C. The execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents executed by such Guarantor and the performance by such Guarantor of its obligations pursuant to the Transaction Documents will not violate or cause a breach of (i) any statute of the United States or the State of Minnesota or any rule or regulation of any governmental authority or regulatory body of the United States or the State of Minnesota (including without limitation, Regulations T, U or X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System), or any judgment, order or decree known to us and applicable to such Guarantor of any court, governmental authority or arbitrator or (ii) any provision of the articles of incorporation or bylaws of such Guarantor.

D. No consent, approval, authorization of, or registration or filing with, any Minnesota or federal governmental authority is required to be obtained or made by such Guarantor in connection with the due execution, delivery and performance of any Transaction Document, except such as have been obtained or made.

E. The Transaction Documents executed by such Guarantor have been executed and delivered by such Guarantor, and constitute the valid and binding obligations of such Guarantor, enforceable against such Guarantor in accordance with their respective terms, except such as may be required by state securities laws of the state of its formation with respect to the obligations of such Guarantor under the Registration Rights Agreement.

F. Subject to the following two sentences, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to the Transaction Documents in any court of the State of Minnesota or in any federal court sitting in the State of Minnesota, such court would recognize and give effect to the provisions of the Transaction Documents relating to the parties’ choice of New York law as governing the Transaction Documents. Such courts might not give effect to such choice of law provisions if giving effect to such provisions were determined to be contrary to a fundamental policy of the state of Minnesota at such time, but we are not aware of any existing precedent refusing to give effect to a choice of law provision in a substantial commercial contract on purely public policy grounds. In addition, such counsel may assume for the purposes of this opinion that in selecting New York law the parties are acting in good faith and without an intent to evade the law.

Exhibit C

EXHIBIT D

B. The Credit Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by, and constitutes valid and binding obligations of, the Company and each Guarantor, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms.

C. The execution and delivery of the Credit Agreement by each of the Company and the Guarantors and the performance by each of the Company and the Guarantors of its obligations thereunder: (A) will not result in any violation of the provisions of the charter or by-laws of the Company or the relevant Guarantor, respectively; (B) will not constitute a breach of, or Default or a Debt Repayment Triggering Event under, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any property or assets of the Company or the relevant Guarantor, respectively, any Existing Instrument listed on Schedule I to such opinion; or (C) will not result in any violation of any law of the United States or the State of New York or any rule or regulation issued thereunder.
