(a) The Borrowers may terminate the Commitment in whole or reduce the Commitment in part upon thirty (30) days' prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, and on the date so specified for termination or reduction of the Commitment, all outstanding Advances in excess of the Commitment Amount as so reduced, accrued interest, charges, any Commitment Reduction Fee, and other amounts owing to the Lenders and the Agents will be due Credit Agreement 25 and payable in full. The only effect of any partial reduction of the Commitment shall be to reduce the Commitment Amount, it being specifically agreed that all of the other terms of this Agreement and the Loan Documents shall remain in full force and effect with respect to such reduced Commitment. Any termination of the Commitment or reduction of the Commitment Amount by the Borrowers pursuant to this Section shall be irrevocable. (b) Each Borrower acknowledges and agrees that each is jointly, severally and unconditionally liable for all Advances, accrued interest and charges and all other amounts owing to the Lenders and the Agents under this Agreement, regardless of which Borrower requested the financing or received the funds and regardless of whether such Advances, accrued interest and charges and other amounts owing to Lenders exist as of the date of this Agreement or should arise hereafter. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders are authorized (in their reasonable discretion) to demand payment and performance of obligations hereunder from any entity executing this Agreement, in any order. (c) The Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent may from time to time with the consent of the Required Lenders (except as otherwise provided in this Agreement) modify, waive, or release the obligations of any Borrower, release or impair any security for the performance of obligations of any Borrower, or otherwise take or omit to take any action with respect to any such Borrower, in every case without affecting the liability of any other Borrower. 2.05. INTEREST ON ADVANCES. (a) All Advances shall bear interest at the applicable Loan Rate in effect from time to time, with the Loan Rate to be determined based upon the LIBOR Margin applicable at the date of determination. (b) The Loan Rate applicable at any time shall equal the sum of (1) the LIBOR, and (2) the LIBOR Margin determined on the basis of the Borrowers' Pricing Tier. The applicable LIBOR Margin for each Pricing Tier shall be as follows:
Borrowers' Pricing Tier LIBOR Margin - ----------------------- ------------ ~~Pricing Tier 1 1.50% Pricing Tier 2 1.75% Pricing Tier 3 1.90% Pricing Tier 4 2.00% Pricing Tier 5 2.60%~~
(c) Interest will be calculated on a simple interest basis for a year of three hundred sixty (360) days, based on actual days elapsed. (d) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section, during the continuance of any Event of Default the Borrowers shall pay interest at the Default Rate on (1) the unpaid principal balance of the Advances, and (2) to the fullest extent permitted by Law, any interest, fee, or other amount payable hereunder that is not paid when due. Credit Agreement 26 2.06 REQUIRED PAYMENTS; PREPAYMENTS. The Borrowers shall make payments of interest and principal to the Lenders as follows: (a) Interest shall be payable on each Interest Payment Date. (b) If at any time the outstanding amount of the Advances in respect of the Commitment shall exceed the then applicable Borrowing Base, the Borrowers immediately shall make such principal payments to the Lenders as shall be required to reduce the outstanding balance of the Advances to an amount not exceeding the then applicable Borrowing Base. (c) The entire unpaid principal balance of the Advances, together with accrued interest thereon, if not sooner paid as aforesaid, shall be due and payable in full on the Termination Date. The Borrowers shall have the right to prepay the Advances in whole or in part at any time without premium or penalty. 2.07. MANNER OF PAYMENTS. All payments on account of interest and principal of the Advances shall be made to the Administrative Agent on or before 12:00 noon, Cleveland time, on the Business Day on which such payment is due, and on or before 3:00 p.m., Cleveland time, on such Business Day, the Administrative Agent shall remit each such payment to the Lenders in accordance with their Pro Rata Percentages of the Commitment. If any such payment is made to the Administrative Agent after 12:00 noon, Cleveland time, and such payment is not remitted to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent on or before 3:00 p.m., Cleveland time, on such Business Day, the Borrowers (and not the Administrative Agent) shall be solely responsible for interest on such payment until the next Business Day; provided, however, that if such payment were made to the Administrative Agent on or before 3:00 p.m., then no additional interest shall be due to the Administrative Agent in its capacity as a Lender. If any payment is due on a date that is not a Business Day, the due date will be extended to the next Business Day. The Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Lenders may, at any time and without notice to Borrowers, apply monies received in payment of Borrowers' obligations in such order of application as the Administrative Agent shall determine. All payments shall be made in immediately available United States dollars and without set-off, counterclaim or other defense. The Borrowers specifically agree that they will not delay payment of any obligations to Lenders, or assert any defense or set-off with respect to said obligations, on account of a dispute between the Borrowers and the vendor or manufacturer of any Inventory. 2.08 UNDRAWN COMMITMENT FEE. The Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders an Undrawn Commitment Fee calculated as follows: (a) The Undrawn Commitment Fee shall be payable on the amount by which the Commitment Amount shall exceed the average principal amount of Advances outstanding under the Commitment during such calendar month. (b) For all months during which the interest on the Advances shall be calculated on the basis of Pricing Tier 1 or Pricing Tier 2, the rate at which such Undrawn Credit Agreement 27 Commitment Fee shall be calculated shall be an annualized amount equal to ten basis points (i.e. 0.10%). For all months during which the interest on the Advances shall be calculated on the basis of Pricing Tier 3, the rate at which such Undrawn Commitment Fee shall be calculated shall be an annualized amount equal to fifteen basis points (i.e. 0.15%). For all months during which the interest on the Advances shall be calculated on the basis of Pricing Tier 4, the rate at which such Undrawn Commitment Fee shall be calculated shall be an annualized amount equal to twenty basis points (i.e. 0.20%). For all months during which the interest on the Advances shall be calculated on the basis of Pricing Tier 5 or the Default Rate, the rate at which such Undrawn Commitment Fee shall be calculated shall be an annualized amount equal to twenty-five basis points (i.e. 0.25%). The calculation shall be performed on the basis of a three hundred sixty (360) day year for actual days elapsed. (c) The Undrawn Commitment Fee shall be calculated on a monthly basis but shall be payable quarterly in arrears on the Interest Payment Dates in February, May, August, and November. 2.09 COMMITMENT REDUCTION FEE. If the Borrowers shall terminate or reduce the Commitment in whole or in part at any time or times prior to the first anniversary of the date of this Agreement, at the effective date of each such termination or reduction they shall pay to the Lenders a Commitment Reduction Fee; provided, however, that the Borrowers shall not be required to pay a Commitment Reduction Fee more than once on the same reduced portion of the Commitment. Such Commitment Reduction Fee shall equal the Undrawn Commitment Fee calculated in accordance with Section 2.08 for the time period from the effective date of the reduction or termination to the first anniversary of the date of this Agreement, using the reduced Commitment Amount after giving effect to the reduction or termination as the outstanding principal amount of Advances under the Commitment for such period. For purposes of such calculation, for the entire period from the effective date of each reduction or termination to the first anniversary of the date of this Agreement the Borrowers shall be deemed to be in whatever Pricing Tier they were in at the effective date of the reduction or termination. 2.10. SHARING OF PAYMENTS. If any Lender shall obtain any payment or other recovery (whether voluntary, involuntary, by application of setoff or otherwise) on account of any Advance in excess of its Pro Rata Percentage of payments then or theretofore obtained by all Lenders, such Lender shall purchase from the other Lenders such participations in Advances made by them as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment or other recovery ratably with each of them; provided, however, that if all or any portion of the excess payment or other recovery is thereafter recovered from such purchasing Lender, the purchase shall be rescinded and each Lender which has sold a participation to the purchasing Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase price to the ratable extent of such recovery together with an amount equal to such selling Lender's ratable share [according to the proportion of (a) the amount of such selling Lender's required repayment to the purchasing Lender to (b) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender] of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Lender in respect of the total amount so recovered. Each Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another Lender pursuant to this Section may, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, exercise all its rights of payment with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of Credit Agreement 28 such Borrower in the amount of such participation. If under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar Law, any Lender receives a secured claim in lieu of a setoff to which this Section applies, such Lender shall, to the extent practicable, exercise its rights in respect of such secured claim in a manner consistent with the rights of the Lenders entitled under this Section to share in the benefits of any recovery on such secured claim. 2.11. LENDERS' RIGHT OF SET-OFF. The Borrowers hereby grant the Lenders a lien on, and a security interest in, the deposit balances, accounts, items, trusts (as permitted by Law), certificates of deposit and monies of the Borrowers in the possession of or on deposit with any of the Lenders, or any of their Affiliates to secure, and as collateral for, the payment and performance of the Obligations. The Lenders may at any time and from time to time after the occurrence of an Event of Default, without demand or notice, appropriate and set-off against and apply the same to the Obligations when and as due and payable. 2.12. LIABILITY OF THE REAL ESTATE SUBSIDIARIES. The Real Estate Subsidiaries are Borrowers under this Agreement.

As a result of the foregoing, the Borrower and the Lenders hereby agree as follows: (a) The Borrowers will not, without the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld: (1) allow any new vessel that any Borrower has purchased directly from the manufacturer thereof to become a Documented Vessel; or (2) allow any other vessel that any Borrower has purchased or acquired from anyone that theretofore was not a Documented Vessel to become a Documented Vessel unless, in either such case (A) there shall be executed by such Borrower and recorded with the Coast Guard in the Credit Agreement 32 manner contemplated by the Preferred Mortgage Act, a Preferred Ship's Mortgage in favor of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Lenders encumbering such Documented Vessel as collateral security for the Obligations, and (B) such Preferred Ship's Mortgage in favor of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Lenders creates a first priority Lien on such Documented Vessel, subject only to Permitted Liens. (b) If at any time the three (3) immediately preceding monthly Borrowing Base Certificates shall reveal that the unpaid principal amount of Advances under this Agreement plus accrued but unpaid interest thereon shall equal or exceed ninety percent (90%) of the aggregate amount included in the Borrowing Base in respect of Eligible New Inventory and Eligible Used Inventory on such Borrowing Base Certificates, then the Collateral Agent on behalf of the Lenders may request from the Borrowers in writing, and the Borrowers shall provide to the Collateral Agent within five (5) Business Days of such request, a written list of all Documented Vessels in the Eligible Used Inventory that are included in the Borrowing Base (it being acknowledged that no such Documented Vessel would be includable in the Borrowing Base if any Person other than the Collateral Agent should have a Preferred Ship's Mortgage on such Documented Vessel that had not been extinguished by payment in full and delivery of a written satisfaction of such Preferred Ship's Mortgage, irrespective of whether such satisfaction had been filed with the Coast Guard), and the value at which each such Documented Vessel has been included in the Borrowing Base. Following receipt of such list, the Required Lenders may, by written notice to the Borrowers, require that the Borrowers (1) file with the Coast Guard in the manner contemplated by the Documentation of Vessels Act such documentation as shall be necessary to transfer record ownership of each such Documented Vessel to a Borrower (to the extent such transfer theretofore shall not have been made), and (2) execute and record with the Coast Guard in the manner contemplated by the Preferred Mortgage Act a Preferred Ship's Mortgage in favor of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Lenders encumbering each such Documented Vessel as collateral security for the Obligations and creating in favor of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Lenders a first priority Lien on each such Documented Vessel, subject only to Permitted Liens. In lieu of requiring the filing with respect to all Documented Vessels shown on such list of (A) such documentation as shall be necessary to transfer record ownership to the Borrowers, and (B) Preferred Ship's Mortgages in favor of the Collateral Agent, the Required Lenders in their discretion may direct the Borrowers to make such filings on only the particular Documented Vessels on such list that the Required Lenders shall designate to the Borrowers in writing. (c) If at any time the three (3) immediately preceding monthly Borrowing Base Certificates shall reveal that the unpaid principal amount of Advances under this Agreement plus accrued but unpaid interest thereon shall equal or exceed ninety percent (90%) of the aggregate amount included in the Borrowing Base in respect of Eligible New Inventory and Eligible Used Inventory on such Borrowing Base Certificates, then the Collateral Agent on behalf of the Lenders may request from the Borrowers in writing, and the Borrowers shall provide to the Collateral Agent within five (5) Business Days of such request, a written list of all vessels in the Eligible New Inventory and the Eligible Used Inventory that have a value in the Borrowing Base of one million, five hundred thousand dollars ($1,500,000) or more, and the value at which each such vessel has been included in the Borrowing Base. Following receipt of such list, the Required Lenders may, by written notice to the Borrowers, require that the Credit Agreement 33 Borrowers: (1) file with the Coast Guard in the manner contemplated by the Documentation of Vessels Act such documentation as shall be necessary to make each vessel shown on such list a Documented Vessel (to the extent such filing theretofore shall not have been made), and (2) execute and record with the Coast Guard in the manner contemplated by the Preferred Mortgage Act a Preferred Ship's Mortgage in favor of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Lenders encumbering each such Documented Vessel as collateral security for the Obligations, and creating in favor of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Lenders a first priority Lien on such Documented Vessel, subject only to Permitted Liens. In lieu of requiring the filing with respect to all vessels shown on such list of (A) documentation of Borrowers' record ownership, and (B) Preferred Ship's Mortgages in favor of the Collateral Agent, the Required Lenders in their discretion may direct the Borrowers to make such filings on only the particular vessels on such list that the Required Lenders shall designate to the Borrowers in writing. (d) Whenever the Borrowers shall certify to the Collateral Agent that a Documented Vessel theretofore included in the Inventory and subject to a Preferred Ship's Mortgage in favor of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Lenders is to be sold to a customer, the Collateral Agent promptly shall execute and deliver a satisfaction of such Preferred Ship's Mortgage upon receipt of evidence of either (1) payment of the purchase price of such Documented Vessel, or (2) the receipt of a Contract in Transit as to such Documented Vessel, and, in either such case, the elimination of such Documented Vessel from the Borrowing Base. (e) All costs and expenses incurred in connection with the documentation of Documented Vessels, the abstracting of Coast Guard records, and the preparation and filing of Preferred Ship's Mortgages on Documented Vessels shall be borne by the Borrowers. 4.05. INSURANCE OF COLLATERAL. Borrowers shall keep all tangible Collateral (including, particularly, Inventory) insured for full value against all insurable risks, on terms and with insurers reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent, and with the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Lenders as the loss payee, assignee or additional insured, as appropriate. The Company shall provide notice to the Administrative Agent in writing at least ten (10) days before changing or canceling any policy. Each policy shall require the insurer to give not less than thirty (30) days prior written notice to the Administrative Agent of cancellation, and shall provide that the Collateral Agent's interests on behalf of the Lenders will not be impaired by any act or neglect of Borrowers or any other Person nor by any use of such Collateral or the premises on which it is located for purposes more hazardous than are permitted by the policy. 4.06. FURTHER ASSURANCES. The Borrowers shall execute such financing statements and other instruments and agreements, and shall take such actions, as the Collateral Agent on behalf of the Lenders shall request from time to time to evidence or perfect any Lien granted under the Loan Documents. Unless prohibited by Law, the Borrowers specifically authorize the Collateral Agent to execute and file any financing statement, Preferred Ship's Mortgage required by Section 4.04, or other instrument or agreement on behalf of the Borrowers for the foregoing purposes. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the parties also agree that a copy of this Agreement, or any financing statement may be filed as a financing statement in any appropriate jurisdiction, to the extent permitted by Law.

During the continuance of an Event of Default, the Collateral Agent may take control of any funds generated by the Collateral, notify Account Debtors to make payment to an account or location designated by the Collateral Agent, and in the Collateral Agent's name or any Borrower's name, demand, collect, receipt for, settle, compromise, sue for, repossess, accept returns of, foreclose or realize upon any Collateral, including without limitation Accounts and related instruments and security therefor.

The foregoing powers are coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable, as long as the Commitment or any Obligations of Borrowers to the Lenders remain outstanding. 7.04. CUMULATIVE RIGHTS. All Rights available to the Lenders under the Loan Documents shall be cumulative of and in addition to all other Rights under any other agreement, at Law or in equity. The acceptance by the Lenders at any time and from time to time of partial payment of any amount owing under any Loan Documents shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any Event of Default then existing. No waiver by the Lenders of an Event of Default shall be deemed to be a waiver of any Event of Default other than such Event of Default.

CONTROL. None of the provisions hereof shall be deemed to give the Lenders any right to exercise control over the affairs and/or management of the Borrowers, which the parties agree is retained by the Borrowers. ARTICLE VIII THE AGENTS 8.01. APPOINTMENT OF AGENTS. (a) Each Lender hereby appoints KeyBank as the Administrative Agent and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers and discretion under this Agreement and the Loan Documents as are delegated to Credit Agreement 47 the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto. As to any matters not expressly provided for by this Agreement or the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, enforcement or collection of the Promissory Notes), the Administrative Agent shall not be required to exercise any discretion or take any action, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the instructions of the Required Lenders, and such instructions shall be binding upon all Lenders and all holders of the Promissory Notes; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that exposes the Administrative Agent to personal liability or that is contrary to this Agreement, the Loan Documents or applicable Law. The Administrative Agent agrees to give to each Lender prompt notice of each notice given to it by the Borrowers pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. (b) Each Lender hereby appoints BOA as the Collateral Agent on the following terms: (1) Each Lender hereby authorizes the Collateral Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers and discretion under this Agreement and the Loan Documents as are delegated to the Collateral Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto. (2) The Collateral Agent shall be named as the secured party holding the Lenders' security interests in the Collateral as security for the Obligations. (3) The following rules and procedures shall apply to Collateral inspections by the Collateral Agent: (A) In the absence of an Inspection Increase Event and, after any Inspection Increase Event, following the occurrence of a corresponding Inspection Reinstatement Event: (i) The Collateral Agent will complete an inspection of the Eligible New Inventory and the Eligible Used Inventory every other month. (ii) During each inspection, the Collateral Agent will inspect Units having an aggregate value on the Borrowers' books at least equal to fifteen percent (15%) of the portion of the Borrowing Base consisting of Eligible New Inventory and Eligible Used Inventory described in the most recent Borrowing Base Certificate. (iii) At least once during each rolling twelve-month period, the Collateral Agent will inspect all Eligible New Inventory and Eligible Used Inventory at each location at which Eligible New Inventory and Eligible Used Inventory are located. Credit Agreement 48 (B) After the occurrence of an Inspection Increase Event and prior to the occurrence of a corresponding Inspection Reinstatement Event: (i) The Collateral Agent will complete an inspection of the Eligible New Inventory and the Eligible Used Inventory every month. (ii) During each inspection, the Collateral Agent will inspect Units having an aggregate value on the Borrowers' books at least equal to fifty percent (50%) of the portion of the Borrowing Base consisting of Eligible New Inventory and Eligible Used Inventory described in the most recent Borrowing Base Certificate. (iii) At least once during each rolling six-month period, the Collateral Agent will inspect all Eligible New Inventory and Eligible Used Inventory at each location at which Eligible New Inventory and Eligible Used Inventory are located. (C) In connection with all inspections of Eligible New Inventory and Eligible Used Inventory contemplated by this Section 8.01(b)(3): (i) The source document for the inspection of Eligible New Inventory and Eligible Used Inventory will be the documentation provided by the Borrower with its Borrowing Base Certificate for the inspection month. (ii) Once an inspection is completed and reconciled, the Collateral variance will be calculated and the Lenders and Borrowers will be notified of the variance amount. The variance amount will be calculated using the total dollars reported. The standard time to be used for the removal of items from the Borrowing Base will be two (2) Business Days after the sale date. Any downward variance amount of more than three percent (3%) (with such percentage to be rounded to the nearest tenth of one percent) (a "Material Variance") shall be applied to the total collateral value for all types of Collateral shown by the current Borrowing Base Certificate and all Borrowing Base Certificiates submitted prior to the time when a new variance is calculated at the next inspection of Eligible New Inventory and Eligible Used Inventory (a "Variance Adjustment"). (iii) Any of Borrowers' locations found to have a downward Collateral variance of more than five percent (5%) will be re-inspected within the next thirty (30) days. If a Material Variance would not have occurred but for a single location of the Borrowers found to have a downward Collateral variance of more than five percent (5%), and the variance for that location is found to be three percent (3%) or less upon re-inspection, then the Variance Adjustment resulting from the Material Variance shall terminate immediately. Credit Agreement 49 (D) The Collateral Agent will not conduct any routine inspection or inventory of Eligible Parts Inventory. If at any time the unpaid principal balance of Advances under this Agreement plus accrued but unpaid interest thereon shall be equal to or greater than one hundred percent (100%) of the portion of the Borrowing Base consisting of Eligible New Inventory and Eligible Used Inventory, as reflected on the most recent Borrowing Base Certificate, the Collateral Agent may, at the request of the Required Lenders and at the Borrowers' expense, engage a third-party inventory company to test (by statistical sampling or otherwise) the Borrowers' Eligible Parts Inventory described in such Borrowing Base Certificate. (E) The Collateral Agent will not conduct any routine confirmation or inspection of Contracts in Transit. If at any time the unpaid principal balance of Advances under this Agreement plus accrued but unpaid interest thereon shall be equal to or greater than one hundred percent (100%) of the portion of the Borrowing Base consisting of Eligible New Inventory and Eligible Used Inventory, as reflected on the most recent Borrowing Base Certificate, the Collateral Agent may, at the request of the Required Lenders and at the Borrowers' expense, engage a third-party auditor to confirm or inspect (by statistical sampling or otherwise) the Borrowers' Contracts in Transit described in such Borrowing Base Certificate. (4) The Collateral Agent will visit the Company's headquarters from time to time to conduct a Field Audit with a view toward assuring that the Company's representations in the Borrowing Base Certificates are reasonable and are presented using numbers derived in accordance with GAAP. Such Field Audit may include or consist entirely of sampling of invoices representing inventory purchases and Accounts. The frequency of such Field Audits shall be as follows: (A) If any two successive monthly Borrowing Base Certificates shall reveal that the unpaid principal balance of Advances under this Agreement plus accrued but unpaid interest thereon shall equal or exceed ninety percent (90%) of the aggregate amount included in the Borrowing Base in respect of Eligible New Inventory and Eligible Used Inventory, such Field Audits shall be conducted on a quarterly basis until such time as any two successive monthly Borrowing Base Certificates shall reveal that the unpaid principal balance of Advances under this Agreement plus accrued but unpaid interest thereon shall equal less than ninety percent (90%) of the aggregate amount included in the Borrowing Base in respect of Eligible New Inventory and Eligible Used Inventory. (B) If any two successive monthly Borrowing Base Certificates shall reveal that the unpaid principal balance of Advances under this Agreement plus accrued but unpaid interest thereon shall be less than ninety percent (90%) of the aggregate amount included in the Borrowing Base in respect of Eligible New Inventory and Eligible Used Inventory but shall equal or exceed eighty percent (80%) of the aggregate amount included in the Borrowing Base in respect of Eligible New Inventory and Eligible Used Inventory, such Field Audits shall be conducted on a semi-annual basis until such time as any two successive monthly Borrowing Base Certificates shall reveal Credit Agreement 50 that the unpaid principal balance of Advances under this Agreement plus accrued but unpaid interest thereon shall equal less than eighty percent (80%) of the aggregate amount included in the Borrowing Base in respect of Eligible New Inventory and Eligible Used Inventory. (C) In all cases not described in Section 8.01(b)(4)(A) or Section 8.01(b)(4)(B) above, such Field Audits shall be conducted every twelve (12) months after the preceding Field Audit. (5) As to any matters not expressly provided for by this Agreement or the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, enforcement or collection of the Promissory Notes), the Collateral Agent shall not be required to exercise any discretion or take any action, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the instructions of the Required Lenders, and such instructions shall be binding upon all Lenders and all holders of the Promissory Notes; provided, however, that the Collateral Agent shall not be required to take any action that exposes the Collateral Agent to personal liability or that is contrary to this Agreement, the Loan Documents or applicable Law. The Collateral Agent agrees to give to each Lender prompt notice of each notice given to it by the Borrowers pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. (6) The Collateral Agent will communicate the results of the foregoing reviews to the Lenders within fifteen (15) Business Days of the conclusion of the related field work. (7) From time to time at the request of the Required Lenders made in the exercise of their reasonable discretion, but not more than once in any twelve (12) month period in the absence of a material Default, the Collateral Agent shall obtain at the Borrowers' expense such UCC, tax lien, and judgment searches as the Required Lenders have requested. (c) Each Lender hereby appoints BOA as the Documentation Agent and authorizes the Documentation Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such power and discretion under this Agreement and the Loan Documents as are delegated to the Documentation Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto. As to any matters not expressly provided for by this Agreement or the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, enforcement or collection of the Promissory Notes), the Documentation Agent shall not be required to exercise any discretion or take any action, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the instructions of the Required Lenders, and such instructions shall be binding upon all Lenders and all holders of the Promissory Notes; provided, however, that the Documentation Agent shall not be required to take any action that exposes the Documentation Agent to personal liability or that is contrary to this Agreement, the Loan Documents or applicable Law. The Documentation Agent agrees to give to each Lender prompt notice of each notice given to it by the Borrowers pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Documentation Agent shall have no further Credit Agreement 51 duties and shall perform no other services after the closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. 8.02. AGENTS' RELIANCE, ETC. An Agent, its directors, officers, agents or employees shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, except for its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limitation of the generality of the foregoing, each Agent: (a) may treat the payee of any Promissory Note as the holder thereof until such Agent receives conclusive evidence of a legally effective transfer in accordance with Section 9.04 of this Agreement; (b) may consult with legal counsel (including counsel for the Borrowers), independent public accountants and other experts selected by it and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts; (c) makes no warranty or representation to any Lender and shall not be responsible to any Lender for any statements, warranties or representations (whether written or oral) made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document; (d) shall not have any duty to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document on the part of the Borrowers or to inspect the Property (including the books and records) of the Borrowers; provided, however, that the Collateral Agent has certain duties with respect to the inspection of certain of the Collateral as set forth in Section 8.01(b) of this Agreement; (e) shall not be responsible to any Lender for the due execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of, or the perfection or priority of any lien or security interest created or purported to be created under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto; provided, however, that the Collateral Agent and the Documentation Agent (with respect to the Documentation Agent, solely as to the period prior to the closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) have certain duties with respect to filing and continuation of financing statements and Preferred Ship's Mortgages (in certain cases) covering the Collateral; and (f) shall incur no liability under or in respect of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by acting upon any notice, consent, certificate or other instrument or writing (which may be by telecopier, telegram, electronic mail or telex) believed by it to be genuine and signed or sent by the proper party or parties. 8.03. FUNDING RELIANCE, ETC. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by telephone, confirmed in writing, by any Lender by 10:30 a.m., Cleveland time, at least one day prior to an Advance, that such Lender will not make available the amount which would constitute its Pro Rata Percentage of such Advance on the date specified therefor, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such amount available to the Administrative Agent and, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrowers a corresponding amount. If and to the extent that such Lender shall not have made such amount available to the Administrative Agent, such Lender and the Borrowers severally agree to repay the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date the Administrative Agent made such amount available to the Borrowers to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent, at the interest rate applicable at the time to Advances. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in any fashion by a Lender that such Lender will not be making any particular Advance (irrespective of whether under the circumstances the Administrative Agent Credit Agreement 52 would have been entitled, under the first sentence of this Section, to assume that such Lender would be making the Advance) or if a Lender has not deposited same day funds with the Administrative Agent as required by Section 2.02, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to make an Advance on behalf of such Lender. No Lender's obligation to make an Advance shall be affected by any other Lender's failure to make any Advance. 8.04. LENDER CREDIT DECISION. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender and based on the financial statements referred to in Section 5.04 and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement. 8.05. INDEMNIFICATION. The Lenders agree to indemnify each Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrowers to the extent provided in the Loan Documents), according to Pro Rata Percentages of each of them (or if no Promissory Notes are at the time outstanding or if any Promissory Notes are held by Persons that are not Lenders, according to the Pro Rata Percentages of their Commitments), from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses, or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever that may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against any Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any action taken or omitted by any Agent under this Agreement or any other Loan Document (collectively, the "Indemnified Costs"); provided that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of the Indemnified Costs resulting from an Agent's gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender agrees to reimburse each Agent promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any out-of-pocket expenses (including counsel fees) incurred by such Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, to the extent that such Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by the Borrowers to the extent provided in the Loan Documents. In the case of any investigation, litigation or proceeding giving rise to any Indemnified Costs, this Section 8.05 applies whether any such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by an Agent, a Lender or a third party. 8.06. ADVANCES AND LOANS BY AGENTS AND THEIR AFFILIATES; OTHER AGENTS AND AFFILIATES. If at any time any Lender is also an Agent hereunder, then, with respect to its Commitment, the Advances made by it and the Promissory Note issued to it, such Lender shall have the same rights, powers, obligations and duties under this Agreement as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not an Agent; and the term "Lender" or "Lenders" shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated, include such Lender in its individual capacity. If at any time any Lender is also an Agent hereunder, such Lender and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as trustee under indentures of, accept investment banking engagements from and generally engage in any kind of business with, the Borrowers, any of their Affiliates, and any Person who may do business with or own securities of the Borrowers or any Credit Agreement 53 of their Affiliates, all as if such Lender were not an Agent and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders. 8.07. COMPENSATION OF AGENTS. Each Agent shall be entitled to certain compensation for its services as follows: (a) The Borrowers shall pay the Administrative Agent quarterly in advance for each calendar quarter an Administrative Agent fee dependent upon the Pricing Tier of the Borrowers for such calendar quarter, as follows: Pricing Tier 1 $ 7,500 per calendar quarter Pricing Tier 2 $ 7,500 per calendar quarter Pricing Tier 3 $ 7,500 per calendar quarter Pricing Tier 4 $10,000 per calendar quarter Pricing Tier 5 $12,500 per calendar quarter

(b) For every month that the Collateral Agent conducts an inspection, the Lenders will pay the Collateral Agent a fee of five hundred dollars ($500) plus fifty-two dollars ($52) per location inspected, other than the Company's headquarters location, and two dollars ($2) for each Unit inspected in the manner contemplated by Section 8.01(b). The Collateral Agent will bill the Administrative Agent on a quarterly basis for such services and the Administrative Agent then will bill each Lender its Pro Rata Percentage of such charges. (c) The Borrowers will pay the Collateral Agent a fee of seven hundred fifty dollars ($750) per day plus out of pocket expenses for (1) the Field Audits contemplated by Section 8.01(b)(4), and (2) any additional Field Audits that the Required Lenders, in their reasonable discretion, deem it necessary for the Collateral Agent to conduct on behalf of the Lenders at the Company's headquarters. (d) In consideration of the services performed or to be performed by BOA in its capacity as Collateral Agent and Documentation Agent, the Borrowers will pay BOA annually in advance a single fee of five thousand dollars ($5,000), with the first such annual payment to be paid at the closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The Documentation Agent shall have no further duties and shall perform no other services after the closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, so all payments subsequent to the payment made at the closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be solely in respect of service as the Collateral Agent. 8.08. SUCCESSOR AGENTS. An Agent may resign at any time by giving at least thirty (30) days' prior written notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrowers and may be removed at any time with or without cause by all of the Lenders other than the Lender being removed. Upon any such resignation or removal, all of the Lenders (other than any Lender that has been removed as an Agent) and the Borrowers, if not then in material Default, shall have the right to appoint a successor Agent. If an Agent is being removed, the notice of removal shall include the designation of a successor Agent approved by the other Lenders and by the Borrowers if the Borrowers are not then in material Default. If an Agent shall have given notice of its resignation Credit Agreement 54 and within thirty (30) days after the giving of such notice no successor Agent shall have been so appointed by the other Lenders and the Borrowers (or solely by the other Lenders if the Borrowers are then in material Default) and shall have accepted such appointment, then the retiring Agent may, on behalf of both the Lenders and the Borrowers appoint a successor Agent to such Agent's capacity. In no event shall the term of any Agent end until the successor Agent has been appointed and shall have accepted such appointment. Any successor Agent shall be one of the Lenders or a financial institution organized under the Laws of the U.S. (or any State thereof) or a U.S. branch or agency of a commercial banking institution, in either case having a combined capital and surplus of at least five hundred million dollars ($500,000,000) or being a wholly owned subsidiary of a financial institution that on a consolidated basis has combined capital and surplus of at least five hundred million dollars ($500,000,000). Upon the successor Agent's acceptance of any appointment as an Agent hereunder, such successor Agent shall be entitled to receive from the retiring or removed Agent such documents of transfer and assignment as such successor Agent reasonably may request, and thereupon shall succeed to and become vested with all rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring or removed Agent, and the retiring or removed Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement. After any Agent's resignation or removal hereunder as an Agent, the provisions of this Article VIII shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was an Agent under this Agreement. ARTICLE IX MISCELLANEOUS 9.01. AMENDMENTS AND WAIVERS. No amendment or waiver of any provision of any Loan Documents, nor consent to any departure by any Borrower therefrom, shall be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Required Lenders, or if so provided in this Agreement, by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, and then any such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given. In the cases of any actions specified in clauses (a) through (h) of the definition of "Required Lenders" and in any other case in which this Agreement prescribes approval by all Lenders, no approval, waiver, consent, or amendment shall be deemed given by the Lenders unless all of the Lenders shall have approved such actions. 9.02.

PARTIES IN INTEREST. The Loan Documents shall bind and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto, and their successors and assigns. The Borrowers may not assign or transfer any of their Rights or obligations hereunder (whether voluntarily or by operation of Law), without the prior written consent of all of the Lenders. Lenders may assign or participate their rights and obligations under this Agreement as provided in Section 9.04. 9.04. ASSIGNMENTS AND PARTICIPATIONS. (a) Assignments. No Lender shall have the right to assign its interest in the Advances or the Commitment; provided, however, that any Lender may at any time, without the consent of the Borrowers or the other Lenders, assign all, but not less than all, of its Advances and Commitments to one or more Affiliates. Although the assignees under this Section shall become Lenders, no such assignment to Affiliates shall relieve the assigning Lender of its obligations under this Agreement. (b) Participations. (1) Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of the Borrowers or the other Lenders, sell or otherwise transfer to one or more of its Affiliates all or any part of its participating interests in any of the Advances, Commitments, or other interests of such Lender hereunder. (2) Any Lender may at any time, with the consent of the Company, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, sell to one or more commercial banks, finance companies, funds, or other Persons that are not Affiliates of the Lender, participating interests in any of the Advances, Commitments, or other interests of such Lender hereunder; provided, however, that: (A) the amount of the participating interest sold to such Person that is not an Affiliate of the Lender shall not exceed thirty percent (30%) of such Lender's Pro Rata Percentage of the Commitment; (B) unless otherwise agreed by all of the Lenders, any Lender that serves as the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent must hold for its own account, net of any such approved participations to Persons other than Affiliates, at least twenty five percent (25%) of the aggregate Advances and Commitment under this Agreement. (3) No participation contemplated in this Section 9.04 shall relieve such Lender from its Commitments or its other obligations hereunder or under any other Credit Agreement 58 Loan Document. Such Lender shall remain solely responsible for the performance of its Commitments and such other obligations. (4) The Borrowers and the Administrative Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement and each of the other Loan Documents and shall not deal with the Person (whether or not an Affiliate of the Lender) purchasing or otherwise acquiring such participation (a "Participant"); and (5) No Participant shall be entitled to require such Lender to take or refrain from taking any action hereunder or under any other Loan Document, except that such Lender may agree with any Participant that such Lender will not, without such Participant's consent, agree to extend the due date of any Advances under this Agreement. 9.05 ADDITION OF LENDERS. If the Borrowers shall request an increase in the Commitment Amount and all of the existing Lenders approve the increase of the Commitment Amount but do not want to commit for such increase for their own accounts, then, with the approval of all Lenders, new Lenders may be admitted under this Agreement. The aggregate amount of the Commitments of such new Lenders shall not exceed the lesser of (a) the addition to the Commitment Amount, or (b) the portion of the addition to the Commitment Amount that the existing Lenders do not want to take for their own accounts. At the time when any such new Lenders are added, each existing Lender shall assign to the Lenders a portion of its outstanding Advances that shall result in the new Lender's having a portion of the outstanding Advances that is the same as its Pro Rata Percentage of the Commitment Amount, as increased. 9.06 REPLACEMENT OF LENDERS. (a) If any Lender defaults in the performance of its obligations under this Agreement, the Borrowers, with the consent of all of the Lenders other than the defaulting Lender, shall have the right to replace the defaulting Lender. (b) If the Borrowers (if not in material Default) and all of the other Lenders shall desire to replace any Lender, they may, upon thirty (30) days prior written notice to the Lender and with or without cause, replace such Lender with another Lender selected and approved by the Borrowers (if not in material Default) and all such other Lenders and named in such notice to the Lender being replaced. If such replacement shall occur prior to the first anniversary of the date of this Agreement, the Borrowers, if they shall have supported such replacement, or the other Lenders (based on their respective Pro Rata Percentages, but calculated as hereinafter provided), if the Borrowers shall not have supported such replacement (by virtue of the fact that the Borrowers were in material Default) shall pay to the replaced Lender a Commitment Reduction Fee from the effective date of such Lender's replacement to the first anniversary of the date of this Agreement on the full amount of such replaced Lender's Pro Rata Percentage of the Commitment. In addition, the Borrowers, if they shall have supported such replacement, or the other Lenders (based on their respective Pro Rata Percentages, but calculated as hereinafter provided), if the Borrowers shall not have supported such replacement (by virtue of Credit Agreement 59 the fact that the Borrowers were in material Default) shall pay to the replaced Lender all costs, expenses, and reasonable attorneys' fees that the replaced Lender incurs in connection with assigning to the replacement Lender without recourse its interests as a Lender under the Loan Documents. Any payments required to be made by the other Lenders to the replaced Lender shall be apportioned among the other Lenders based on their respective Pro Rata Percentages, so that each other Lender's share of the amounts payable by the Lenders under this Section shall equal that fraction of the total of which (1) the numerator is such other Lender's Pro Rata Percentage, and (2) the denominator is the total Pro Rata Percentages of all such other Lenders. (c) If any Lender replaced under this Section shall have been an Agent (other than the Documentation Agent, which has no duties after the date of this Agreement), then such Agent shall be deemed removed at the effective date of such Lender's replacement, and the procedure for selection of a successor Agent shall be as set forth in Section 8.08 of this Agreement. 9.07. COSTS, EXPENSES AND TAXES. (a) Expenses for Initial Closing. The expenses for the documentation and closing of the transaction contemplated hereby shall be borne as follows: (1) the legal fees and expenses of counsel to the Documentation Agent will be payable by the Borrowers. (2) Except for the Documentation Agent, each party which chooses to engage counsel on its own behalf in connection with the documentation and closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be responsible for its own legal expenses. (3) Travel expenses associated with closing and due diligence are for the account of each individual Lender. (b) Other Expenses. Other expenses incurred in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall be borne as follows: (1) Borrowers, jointly and severally, agree to pay on demand (A) all costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) of the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent in connection with any extension, modification, waiver or release of any Loan Documents or any Collateral, and (B) all costs and expenses of the Lenders incurred in any work-out or enforcement of any Loan Documents, including reasonable attorneys' fees and the costs and expenses of environmental or other consultants. (2) Borrowers shall pay any stamp, debt, recordation, withholding and other Taxes payable in connection with any Loan Documents or payments thereunder (other than Taxes on the overall net income of any Lender), and agrees to save the Lenders harmless from and against all liabilities relating to any Taxes. Credit Agreement 60 All payments by Borrowers shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any Taxes of any nature now or hereafter existing. 9.08. INDEMNIFICATION BY BORROWERS. BORROWERS, JOINTLY AND SEVERALLY, AGREE TO INDEMNIFY, DEFEND AND HOLD HARMLESS LENDERS, THEIR AFFILIATES, AND ALL OF THEIR DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, REPRESENTATIVES, AGENTS, SUCCESSORS, ATTORNEYS AND ASSIGNS, FROM AND AGAINST ANY AND ALL LIABILITIES, OBLIGATIONS, LOSSES, DAMAGES, PENALTIES, ACTIONS, JUDGMENTS, SUITS, CLAIMS, COSTS, EXPENSES AND DISBURSEMENTS OF ANY KIND OR NATURE WHATSOEVER WHICH MAY BE IMPOSED ON, INCURRED BY OR ASSERTED AGAINST ANY OF THEM IN ANY WAY RELATING TO OR ARISING OUT OF ANY LOAN DOCUMENTS, ANY TRANSACTION RELATED HERETO OR THERETO, OR ANY ACT, OMISSION OR TRANSACTION OF THE BORROWERS OR ANY OF THEIR AFFILIATES, OR ANY OF THEIR DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, AGENTS, EMPLOYEES OR REPRESENTATIVES; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THAT BORROWERS SHALL NOT INDEMNIFY, DEFEND AND HOLD HARMLESS ANY INDEMNIFIED PERSON FOR LOSSES OR DAMAGES THAT BORROWERS PROVE WERE CAUSED BY SUCH PERSON'S WILLFUL MISCONDUCT, GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR OTHER NEGLIGENCE. THE LENDERS SHALL NOT BE LIABLE TO THE BORROWERS FOR ANY CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES. This indemnity shall survive repayment of the Obligations to the Lenders. 9.09. HAZARDOUS WASTE INDEMNIFICATION. The Borrowers, jointly and severally, shall indemnify and hold harmless the Lenders, their Affiliates, and all of their directors, officers, employees, representatives, agents, successors, attorneys and assigns, from and against any loss, damage, cost, expense or liability directly or indirectly arising out of or attributable to the use, generation, manufacture, treatment, production, storage, release, threatened release, discharge, disposal or presence of any Hazardous Materials on, under or about the Borrowers' real property or operations or real property leased to the Borrowers, including but not limited to attorneys' fees (including the reasonable estimate of the allocated cost of in-house counsel and staff). This indemnity shall survive repayment of the Obligations to the Lenders. 9.10. DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTY. BORROWERS ACKNOWLEDGE THAT LENDERS HAVE MADE NO EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTIES WITH RESPECT TO ANY INVENTORY OR OTHER COLLATERAL, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY. BORROWERS IRREVOCABLY WAIVE ANY CLAIMS AGAINST LENDERS WITH RESPECT TO THE INVENTORY AND OTHER COLLATERAL WHETHER FOR BREACH OF WARRANTY OR OTHERWISE. Any such claims shall not alter, diminish or otherwise impair Borrowers' liabilities or obligations to the Lenders under the Loan Documents. The Lenders do not assume any obligations of Borrowers relating to the Inventory, any Accounts, any contract obligations, or any other obligations or duties arising from the Collateral. Credit Agreement 61 9.11. RATE PROVISION. It is not the intention of any party to any Loan Document to make an agreement violative of the Laws of any applicable jurisdiction relating to usury. In no event shall Borrowers be obligated to pay any amount in excess of the maximum amount of interest permitted under applicable Law. If from any circumstance any Lender ever shall receive anything of value deemed excess interest under applicable Law, an amount equal to such excess shall be applied to the reduction of the principal amount of outstanding Advances and any remainder shall be refunded to the payor. 9.12. SEVERABILITY; COUNTERPARTS. If any provision of any Loan Documents is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable under present or future Laws during the term thereof, such provision shall be fully severable, and the Loan Documents shall be construed and enforced as if such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision had never comprised a part thereof. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents may be executed in any number of counterparts. 9.13. GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the Laws of the State of Georgia. The state and federal courts located in Atlanta, Georgia, including the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Georgia, shall have jurisdiction to determine any claim or dispute pertaining to this Agreement. The parties expressly submit and consent to such jurisdiction, and waive any claim of inconvenient forum. 9.14. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY THE LAWS OF ANY FORUM STATE, THE PARTIES HERETO WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY DISPUTE ARISING UNDER OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS OR ANY RELATED MATTERS. 9.15.
