The issuance or modification by the L/C Issuer of any Letter of Credit shall, in addition to the conditions precedent set forth in Section 3 (the satisfaction of which the L/C Issuer shall have no duty to ascertain), be subject to the conditions precedent that such Letter of Credit shall be satisfactory to the L/C Issuer and that Borrower and the account party (if other than Borrower) shall have executed and delivered such application agreement and/or such other instruments and agreements relating to such Letter of Credit as the L/C Issuer shall have reasonably requested (each, a “Letter of Credit Application Agreement”). In the event of any conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the terms of any Letter of Credit Application Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall control.

2.2.3. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any Letter of Credit Application, the L/C Issuer shall not be under any obligation to issue any requested Letter of Credit if:

(a) any order, judgment or decree of any governmental authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain the L/C Issuer from issuing such Letter of Credit, or any legal requirement applicable to the L/C Issuer or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over the L/C Issuer shall prohibit, or request that the L/C Issuer refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon the L/C Issuer with respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital requirement (for which the L/C Issuer is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the Effective Date, or shall impose upon the L/C Issuer any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable on the Effective Date and which the L/C Issuer in good faith deems material to it;

(b) except as otherwise agreed by the L/C Issuer, such Letter of Credit is to be denominated in a currency other than Dollars;

(c) a default of any Bank’s obligations to fund under Section 2.2.7 exists or any Bank is at such time a Defaulting Bank hereunder, unless the L/C Issuer has entered into satisfactory arrangements with the Borrower or such Bank to eliminate the L/C Issuer’s risk with respect to such Bank; or

(d) the beneficiary of a Letter of Credit which is requested to be issued does not accept the proposed Letter of Credit.

2.2.4. Upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall (i) pay a fee to the Administrative Agent, for the pro-rata benefit of all Banks, equal to, as of any date of determination thereof, the amount set forth on the Pricing Schedule, and (ii) pay to the L/C Issuer for its own account an issuance fee equal to 0.125% of the face amount of such Letter of Credit.

2.2.5. In the event that the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit requested to be issued hereunder will not accept a Letter of Credit issued by the L/C Issuer, the L/C Issuer will use commercially reasonable efforts to arrange for another Bank to issue the requested Letter of Credit. The Borrower shall pay any issuance or fronting fees charged by the issuing Bank, and the Borrower acknowledges that such fees may be higher than the issuance fee provided for in Section 2.2.4.

2.2.6. By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment to a Letter of Credit increasing the amount thereof) and without any further action on the part of the L/C Issuer or the Bank, the L/C Issuer hereby grants to each Bank, and each Bank hereby acquires from the L/C Issuer, a participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such Bank’s Pro Rata Share of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Bank hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the L/C Issuer such Bank’s Pro Rata Share of each payment made by the L/C Issuer upon any drawing and not reimbursed by the Borrower on the Letter of Credit Payment Date as provided in Section 2.2.7, or of any reimbursement payment required to be refunded to the Borrower for any reason. Each Bank acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this Section 2.2.6 in respect of Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or the occurrence and continuance of any Default or reduction or termination of the Revolving Credit Commitment, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever.

2.2.7. Upon receipt from the beneficiary of any demand for payment under any Letter of Credit, the L/C Issuer shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent as to the amount to be paid by the L/C Issuer as a result of such demand and the proposed payment date (each a “Letter of Credit Payment Date”). The Borrower and any other applicable account party shall be irrevocably and unconditionally obligated to reimburse the L/C Issuer on or by the applicable Letter of Credit Payment Date for any amounts to be paid by the L/C Issuer upon any drawing under any Letter of Credit, without presentment, demand, protest or other formalities of any kind. All such amounts paid by the L/C Issuer and remaining unpaid by the Borrower and any other applicable account party shall bear interest, payable on demand, for each day until paid at a rate per annum equal to (i) the applicable Adjusted Base Rate for such day if such day falls on or before the applicable Letter of Credit Payment Date and (ii) the sum of 2% plus the Adjusted Base Rate applicable for such day if such day falls after such Letter of Credit Payment Date.

2.2.8. If the Borrower fails to make such payment when due, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Bank of such drawing, the payment amount then due from the Borrower in respect thereof and such Bank’s Pro Rata Share thereof. Promptly following receipt of such notice, each Bank shall pay to the Administrative Agent (for the account of the L/C Issuer) its Pro Rata Share of the payment then due from the Borrower, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.1 with respect to Revolving Credit Loans made by such Bank, and the amounts so paid to the Administrative Agent shall be deemed Revolving Credit Loans for purposes of this Agreement.

2.2.9. If after the date hereof, any Change in Law shall impose, modify or deem applicable any tax, reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against or with respect to or measured by reference to Letters of Credit issued or to be issued hereunder, and the result shall be to increase the cost to the L/C Issuer of issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit, or reduce any amount receivable hereunder by the L/C Issuer in respect of any Letter of Credit (which increase in cost, or reduction in amount receivable, shall be the result of the L/C Issuer’s reasonable allocation of the aggregate of such increases or reductions resulting from such event), then, upon demand by the L/C Issuer, the Borrower agrees to pay to the L/C Issuer, from time to time as specified by the L/C Issuer, such additional amounts as shall be sufficient to compensate the L/C Issuer for such increased costs or reductions in amounts received by the L/C Issuer. A certificate of the L/C Issuer submitted by the L/C Issuer to the Borrower shall be conclusive as to the amount thereof in the absence of manifest error.

2.2.10. The obligations of Borrower and any other applicable account parties under this Section 2.2 shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances and irrespective of any setoff, counterclaim or defense to payment which Borrower or any of the foregoing account parties may have or have had against the L/C Issuer or any beneficiary of a Letter of Credit. The Borrower and the applicable account parties further agree with the L/C Issuer that the obligation for reimbursement in respect of any Letter of Credit shall not be affected by the validity or genuineness of documents or of any endorsements thereon, even if such documents should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, fraudulent or forged, or any dispute between or among the Borrower and any other applicable account parties, or any of their Affiliates, the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or any financing institution or other party to whom any Letter of Credit may be transferred or any claims or defenses whatsoever of the Borrower or any other applicable account parties, or any of their Affiliates, against the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or any such transferee. The responsibility of the L/C Issuer to the Borrower shall be only to determine that the documents (including each demand for payment) delivered under each Letter of Credit in connection with such presentment shall be in conformity in all material respects with such Letter of Credit. The L/C Issuer shall not be liable for any error, omission, interruption or delay in transmission, dispatch or delivery of any message or advice, however transmitted, in connection with any Letter of Credit. The Borrower and any other applicable account parties agree that any action taken or omitted by the L/C Issuer under or in connection with each Letter of Credit and the related drafts and documents, if done in good faith and without gross negligence or willful misconduct, shall be binding upon them and shall not put the L/C Issuer under any liability to any of them.

2.2.11. The L/C Issuer shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying upon, any Letter of Credit, draft, writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, cablegram, telegram, telecopy, telex or teletype message, statement, order or other document believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel, independent accountants and other experts selected by the L/C Issuer.

2.2.12. The Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the L/C Issuer, and its respective directors, officers and employees from and against any and all claims and damages, losses, liabilities, costs or expenses which the L/C Issuer may incur (or which may be claimed against the L/C Issuer by any Person whatsoever) by reason of or in connection with the execution and delivery or transfer of or payment or failure to pay under any Letter of Credit or any actual or proposed use of any Letter of Credit, including, without limitation, any claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs or expenses which the L/C Issuer may incur by reason of or on account of the L/C Issuer issuing any Letter of Credit which specifies that the term “beneficiary” included therein includes any successor by operation of law of the named beneficiary, but which Letter of Credit does not require that any drawing by any such successor beneficiary be accompanied by a copy of a legal document, satisfactory to the L/C Issuer, evidencing the appointment of such successor beneficiary; provided that Borrower shall not be required to indemnify the L/C Issuer for any claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs or expenses (x) to the extent, but only to the extent, caused by (i) the willful misconduct or gross negligence of the L/C Issuer in determining whether a request presented under any Letter of Credit complied with the terms of such Letter of Credit or (ii) the L/C Issuer’s failure to pay under any Letter of Credit after the presentation to it of a request strictly complying with the terms and conditions of such Letter of Credit or (y) which are the subject of or are incurred in connection with any litigation or proceeding with respect to which (i) the Borrower or any other applicable account parties, or their Affiliates, on the one hand, and (ii) the L/C Issuer, on the other hand, are directly opposing parties and with respect to which a final, non-appealable judgment has been rendered in favor of the Borrower or such other applicable account party or their Affiliates by a court of competent jurisdiction. Nothing in this Section 2.2.12 is intended to limit the obligations of Borrower under any other provision of this Agreement. The provisions of this Section 2.2.12 shall survive termination of this Agreement.

2.2.13. The L/C Issuer may be replaced at any time by written agreement among the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the replaced L/C Issuer and the successor L/C Issuer. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Banks of any such replacement of the L/C Issuer. At the time any such replacement shall become effective, the Borrower shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced L/C Issuer pursuant to Section 2.2.4. From and after the effective date of any such replacement, (i) the successor L/C Issuer shall have all the rights and obligations of the L/C Issuer under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued thereafter and (ii) references herein to the term “L/C Issuer” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous L/C Issuer, or to such successor and all previous L/C Issuers, as the context shall require. After the replacement of an L/C Issuer hereunder, the replaced L/C Issuer shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an L/C Issuer under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such replacement, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit.

2.3. Reduction of Revolving Credit Commitment. The Borrower shall have the right, upon at least three (3) Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Agent, to terminate in whole or reduce in part the unused portion of the Revolving Credit Commitment, provided that each partial reduction shall be in the amount of at least One Million and No/100 Dollars ($1,000,000.00), and provided further that no reduction shall be permitted if, after giving effect thereto, and to any prepayment made therewith, the aggregate outstanding and unpaid principal amount of the Revolving Credit Loans, Swing Line Loans and Letters of Credit shall exceed the Revolving Credit Commitment. Any reduction in part of the unused portion of the Banks’ Commitments shall be made in the proportion that each Bank’s Commitment bears to the Revolving Credit Commitment. The Revolving Credit Commitment, once so reduced or terminated, may not be reinstated.

2.4. Notice and Manner of Borrowing. The Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent notice of any Revolving Credit Loans under this Agreement prior to 12:00 noon on the day of each Base Rate Loan, and at least three (3) Business Days before each LIBOR Loan, specifying: (1) the date of such Loan; (2) the amount of such Loan; (3) the type of Loan; and (4) in the case of a LIBOR Loan, the duration of the Interest Period applicable thereto, which notice shall be in form and content as set forth on Exhibit C hereto (a “Borrowing Notice”). The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Bank of its receipt of a Borrowing Notice. Not later than 1:00 p.m. on the date of such Revolving Credit Loan, each Bank will make available to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s Principal Office in immediately available funds, such Bank’s Pro Rata Share of such Revolving Credit Loan. After the Administrative Agent’s receipt of such funds, not later than 1:00 p.m. on the date of such Revolving Credit Loan and upon fulfillment of the applicable conditions set forth in Section 3, the Administrative Agent will make such Revolving Credit Loan available to the Borrower in immediately available funds by crediting the amount thereof to the following account with the Administrative Agent: Account styled Saia, Inc. Operating Account, No. 209908769. All times shall be based on Central Time. All Borrowing Notices shall be irrevocable and shall be given not later than 12:00 noon on the day which is not less than the number of Business Days specified above for such Borrowing Notice.

2.5. Non-Receipt of Funds by Administrative Agent.

2.5.1. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Bank prior to the date on which such Bank is to provide funds to the Administrative Agent for a Revolving Credit Loan to be made by such Bank that such Bank will not make available to the Administrative Agent such funds, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Bank has made such funds available to the Administrative Agent on the date of such Revolving Credit Loan in accordance with Section 2.4 and the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion may, but shall not be obligated to, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If and to the extent such Bank shall not have so made such funds available to the Administrative Agent, such Bank agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to the Borrower by the Administrative Agent until the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent, at the Federal Funds Rate for the first three days and thereafter at the interest rate then applicable to the Revolving Credit Loans. If such Bank shall repay to the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount, such amount so repaid shall constitute such Bank’s Revolving Credit Loan for purposes of this Agreement. If such Bank does not pay such corresponding amount forthwith upon the Administrative Agent’s demand therefor, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower, and the Borrower shall immediately pay such corresponding amount to the Administrative Agent with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to the Borrower until the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent, at the rate of interest applicable at the time to such proposed Revolving Credit Loan.

2.5.2. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Banks hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment in full, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent on such date and the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion may, but shall not be obligated to, in reliance upon such assumption, cause to be distributed to each Bank on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such Bank. If and to the extent the Borrower shall not have so made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent, each Bank shall repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such amount distributed to such Bank together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is distributed to such Bank until the date such Bank repays such amount to the Administrative Agent, at the Federal Funds Rate for the first three days and thereafter at the interest rate then applicable to the Revolving Credit Loans.

2.6. Conversions and Renewals. The Borrower may elect from time to time to convert all or a part of one type of Revolving Credit Loan into another type of Revolving Credit Loan or to renew all or part of a Revolving Credit Loan by giving the Administrative Agent written notice by submitting to the Administrative Agent an Interest Rate Election Notice, in form and content as set forth on Exhibit D hereto, at least one (1) Business Day before conversion into a Base Rate Loan, at least three (3) Business Days before conversion into or renewal of a LIBOR Loan, specifying: (1) the renewal or conversion date; (2) the amount of the Revolving Credit Loan to be converted or renewed; (3) in the case of conversions, the type of Loan to be converted into; and (4) in the case of renewals of or a conversion into LIBOR Loans, the duration of the Interest Period applicable thereto, including one-month, two-month, three-month or four-month durations; provided that (a) the minimum principal amount of each Revolving Credit Loan outstanding after a renewal or conversion shall be Two Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($200,000.00) in the case of Base Rate Loans, and One Million and No/100 Dollars ($1,000,000.00) in the case of LIBOR Loans; and (b) LIBOR Loans may be converted only on the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Bank of each such notice. All conversions and renewals shall be made in accordance with each Bank’s Pro Rata Share of the amount to be converted or renewed. All notices given under this Section 2.6 shall be irrevocable and shall be given not later than 10:00 a.m. (Central time) on the day which is not less than the number of Business Days specified above for such notice. If the Borrower shall fail to give the Administrative Agent the notice as specified above for the renewal or conversion of a LIBOR Loan prior to the end of the Interest Period with respect thereto, such LIBOR Loan shall automatically be converted into a Base Rate Loan on the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan. Notwithstanding anything provided in this Section 2.6 or in Section 2.4, the Borrower shall have no more than six (6) LIBOR Loans outstanding at any one time.

2.7. Settlement. It is agreed that each Bank’s funded portion of the Revolving Credit Loans is intended by the Banks to be equal at all times to such Bank’s Pro Rata Share of the outstanding Revolving Credit Loans. Notwithstanding such agreement, the Administrative Agent, and the other Banks agree (which agreement shall not be for the benefit of or enforceable by the Borrower) that in order to facilitate the administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, settlement among them as to the Revolving Credit Loans shall take place on a periodic basis in accordance with the following provisions:

2.7.1. The Administrative Agent shall request settlement (“Settlement”) with the Banks on a weekly basis, or on a more frequent basis if so determined by the Administrative Agent, (1) with respect to each outstanding Revolving Credit Loan, and (2) with respect to collections received, in each case, by notifying the Banks of such requested Settlement by telecopy, telephone, or other similar form of transmission, of such requested Settlement, no later than 10:00 a.m. (Tulsa, Oklahoma time) on the date of such requested Settlement (the “Settlement Date”). Each Bank shall make the amount of such Bank’s Pro Rata Share of the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Credit Loan with respect to which Settlement is requested available to the Administrative Agent in same day funds to such account of the Administrative Agent as the Administrative Agent may designate, not later than 3:00 p.m. (Tulsa, Oklahoma time), on the Settlement Date applicable thereto, regardless of whether the applicable conditions precedent set forth in Section 3 have then been satisfied. Such amounts made available to the Administrative Agent shall be applied against the amount of the applicable Revolving Credit Loan and, together with the portion of such Revolving Credit Loan representing Bank’s Pro Rata Share thereof, shall constitute Revolving Credit Loans of such Banks. If any such amount is not made available to the Administrative Agent by any Bank on the Settlement Date applicable thereto, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Bank together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Rate for the first three (3) days from and after such demand and thereafter at the Interest Rate then applicable to the Revolving Credit Loans.

2.7.2. Notwithstanding the foregoing, not more than one (1) Business Day after demand is made by the Administrative Agent, each other Bank shall irrevocably and unconditionally purchase and receive from the Administrative Agent, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation in such Revolving Credit Loan to the extent of such Bank’s Pro Rata Share thereof by paying to the Administrative Agent, in same day funds, an amount equal to such Bank’s Pro Rata Share of such Revolving Credit Loan. If such amount is not in fact made available to the Administrative Agent by any Bank, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Bank together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Rate for the first three (3) days from and after such demand and thereafter at the Interest Rate then applicable to the Revolving Credit Loans.

2.7.3. From and after the date, if any, on which any Bank purchases an undivided interest and participation in any Revolving Credit Loan pursuant to Section 2.7.2 above, the Administrative Agent shall, subject to reimbursement to the Administrative Agent for any amounts due from such Bank, promptly distribute to such Bank at such address as such Bank may request in writing, such Bank’s Pro Rata Share of all payments of principal and interest received by the Administrative Agent in respect of such Revolving Credit Loan.

2.7.4. The Administrative Agent shall record on its books the principal amount of the Revolving Credit Loans owing to each Bank. In addition, each Bank is authorized, at such Bank’s option, to note the date and amount of each payment or prepayment of principal of such Bank’s Revolving Credit Loans in its books and records, including computer records, such books and records constituting rebuttably presumptive evidence, absent manifest error, of the accuracy of the information contained therein.

2.7.5. All Revolving Credit Loans shall be made by the Banks simultaneously and in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares. It is understood that (a) no Bank shall be responsible beyond such Bank’s Commitment set forth in Section 2.1 hereof for any failure by any other Bank to perform its obligation to make any Revolving Credit Loans hereunder, (b) no failure by any Banks to perform its obligation to make any Revolving Credit Loan hereunder shall excuse any other Bank from its obligation to make any Revolving Credit Loans hereunder, and (c) the obligations of each Bank hereunder shall be several, not joint and several.

(a) The outstanding principal amount of the Base Rate Loans shall bear interest on each day at the Adjusted Base Rate for that day. Any change in the Adjusted Base Rate resulting from a change in the Base Rate shall be effective as of the opening of business on the day on which such change in the Base Rate becomes effective.

(b) The outstanding principal amount of each LIBOR Loan shall bear interest for the applicable Interest Period at the Adjusted LIBOR Rate applicable to such Interest Period.

(c) The outstanding principal amount of each Swing Line Loan shall bear interest on each day at the Adjusted Base Rate for that day.

2.8.2. Interest on each Loan shall be calculated on the basis of a year consisting of 360 days and for the actual number of days elapsed.

2.8.3. Interest on the Loans shall be paid in arrears in immediately available funds to the Administrative Agent at its Principal Office for the account of the applicable Lending Office of each Bank as follows:

(a) For each Base Rate Loan, on the first (1^st) day of each month commencing the first such date after such Loan is made and continuing until the earlier of (i) the date such Base Rate Loan is paid in full or (ii) the Termination Date.

(b) For each LIBOR Loan, on the earlier of the last day of the Interest Period with respect to such LIBOR Loan and, if the applicable Interest Period begins in one calendar quarter and ends in a subsequent calendar quarter, on the first day of each calendar quarter during such Interest Period.

(c) For each Swing Line Loan, on the first (1^st) day of each month commencing the first such date after such Swing Line Loan is made and continuing until the earlier of (i) the date such Swing Line Loan is paid in full or (ii) the Termination Date.

2.8.4. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any principal of or interest on any Loan or any fee or other amount payable by the Borrower hereunder is not paid when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, such overdue amount shall bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of overdue principal of any Loan, 2% plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan, or (ii) in the case of any other amount, 2% plus the Adjusted Base Rate.

2.9. Unused Portion Fee. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Banks an Unused Portion Fee on the average daily unused portion of the Revolving Credit Commitment from the Effective Date until the Termination Date at the rate determined in accordance with the Pricing Schedule. The Unused Portion Fee shall be payable in arrears on the first (1^st) day of each quarter during the term of this Agreement and on the Termination Date. Upon receipt of any Unused Portion Fees, the Administrative Agent will promptly thereafter cause to be distributed such payments to the Banks in accordance with each Bank’s Pro Rata Share of such payments.

2.10. Notes. The Revolving Credit Loans made by the Banks under this Agreement shall be evidenced by the Notes. Each Bank is hereby authorized by the Borrower to endorse on the schedule attached to the Note held by it the amount and type of each Revolving Credit Loan and each renewal, conversion, and payment of principal amount received by such Bank for the account of its applicable Lending Office on account of its Revolving Credit Loans, which endorsement shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive as to the outstanding balance of the Revolving Credit Loans made by such Bank; provided, however, that the failure to make such notation with respect to any Revolving Credit Loan or renewal, conversion, or payment shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement or the Note held by such Bank.

2.11.2. Upon each redetermination by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 1.5 of the amount of the Available Borrowing Base then in effect, if the Aggregate Outstanding Credit Exposure exceeds the Available Borrowing Base (as so determined by the Administrative Agent), then within ten Business Days after receipt of notice from the Administrative Agent of the redetermined amount of the Available Borrowing Base, the Borrower shall prepay Revolving Credit Loans (or, if necessary, cash collateralize the outstanding Letters of Credit) in an aggregate amount equal to such excess. To the extent any required prepayment would be applied to outstanding LIBOR Loans and no Default or Matured Default has occurred and is continuing, such portion, including interest thereon through the end of the then-current Interest Period applicable thereto, shall be deposited in a deposit account with the Administrative Agent, such account to be under the sole dominion and control of the Administrative Agent and not subject to withdrawal by the Borrower, and withdrawn for application to such LIBOR Loans at the end of the then-current Interest Periods applicable thereto (or earlier, upon and at any time after the occurrence and continuance of a Matured Default). The Administrative Agent shall not pay any interest to the Borrower on any amounts held in such account.

2.11.3. Upon any reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitment pursuant to Section 2.3.1 or 2.3.2, the Borrower will be required to prepay Revolving Credit Loans (or, if necessary, cash collateralize outstanding Letters of Credit) to the extent the Aggregate Outstanding Credit Exposure exceeds the reduced amount of the Revolving Credit Commitment.

2.12. Optional Prepayments. The Borrower may, upon at least one Business Day’s prior notice to the Administrative Agent in the case of Base Rate Loans and at least three Business Days’ prior notice to the Administrative Agent in the case of LIBOR Loans, pay the Loans, without premium or penalty, in whole or in part with accrued interest to the date of such payment on the amount paid, provided that LIBOR Loans may be paid, without premium or penalty, only on the last day of the Interest Period for such Loans. Upon receipt of any such payments, the Administrative Agent will promptly thereafter cause to be distributed such payment to each Bank for the account of its applicable Lending Office its Pro Rata Share of such payment.

2.13. Method of Payment. The Borrower shall make each payment under this Agreement and under the Notes not later than 3:00 p.m. (Central time) on the date when due in lawful money of the United States to the Administrative Agent at its Principal Office for the account of the applicable Lending Office of each Bank in immediately available funds. The Administrative Agent will promptly thereafter cause to be distributed (1) such payments of principal and interest in like funds to each Bank for the account of its applicable Lending Office based upon its Pro Rata Share thereof and (2) other fees payable to any Bank to be applied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. The Borrower hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent and each Bank, if and to the extent payment is not made when due under this Agreement or under the Notes, to charge from time to time against any account of the Borrower with such Bank any amount as due. Whenever any payment to be made under this Agreement or under the Notes shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall be included in the computation of the payment of interest and the commitment fee, as the case may be, except, in the case of a LIBOR Loan, if the result of such extension would be to extend such payment into another calendar month, such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day.

2.14. Use of Proceeds. The proceeds of the Loans hereunder shall be used by the Borrower for general corporate purposes including financing Permitted Acquisitions, working capital, drawings under Letters of Credit, and Capital Expenditures. All Loans outstanding under the Existing Credit Agreement as of the Effective Date shall be continued as Loans made hereunder. The Borrower will not, directly or indirectly, use any part of such proceeds for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any margin stock within the meaning of Regulation U or to extend credit to any Persons for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any such margin stock, or for any purpose which violates, or is inconsistent with, Regulation U.

2.15. Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, if any Bank determines that any Change in Law shall make it unlawful or impossible for such Bank (or its Lending Office) to maintain or fund its LIBOR Loans, then upon 30 days’ notice to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) by such Bank the outstanding principal amount of all LIBOR Loans, together with interest accrued thereon, and any other amounts payable to each Bank under this Agreement shall be repaid (a) immediately upon demand of such Bank if such change or compliance with such request, in the judgment of such Bank, requires immediate repayment, or (b) at the expiration of the last Interest Period to expire before the effective date of any such change or request.

2.16. Disaster. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive) that quotations of interest rates for the relevant deposits referred to in the definition of LIBOR Rate, are not being provided in the relevant amounts or for the relative maturities for purposes of determining the rate of interest on a LIBOR Loan as provided in this Agreement, or if the Majority Banks determine (which determination shall be conclusive) that the relevant rates of interest referred to in the definition of LIBOR Rate, upon the basis of which the rate of interest for any such type of Loan is to be determined do not accurately cover the cost to the Banks of making or maintaining such type of Loans, then the Administrative Agent shall forthwith give notice thereof to the Borrower, whereupon (a) the obligation of the Banks to make LIBOR Loans, shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, and (b) the Borrower shall repay in full the then outstanding principal amount of each LIBOR Loan, together with accrued interest thereon, on the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable to such Loan.

2.17. Increased Cost. From time to time upon 30 days’ prior notice to the Borrower from a Bank (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Bank such amounts as any Bank may determine to be necessary to compensate such Bank for any costs incurred by such Bank which such Bank determines are attributable to its making or maintaining any LIBOR Loans hereunder or its obligation to make any such Loans hereunder, or any reduction in any amount receivable by such Bank under this Agreement or its Note in respect of any such Loans or such obligation (such increases in costs and reductions in amounts receivable being herein called “Additional Costs”), resulting from any Change in Law after the Effective Date which: (1) changes the basis of taxation of any amounts payable to such Bank under this Agreement or its Note in respect of any of such Loans (other than taxes imposed on the overall net income of such Bank or of its Lending Office for any of such Loans by the jurisdiction where the Principal Office or such Lending Office is located); or (2) imposes or modifies any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, or similar requirements relating to any extensions of credit or other assets of, or any deposits with or other liabilities of, such Bank (including any of such Loans or any deposits referred to in the definition of LIBOR Rate); or (3) imposes any other condition affecting this Agreement or its Note (or any of such extensions of credit or liabilities). Such Bank will notify the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of any event occurring after the Effective Date which will entitle such Bank to compensation pursuant to this Section 2.17 as promptly as practicable after it obtains knowledge thereof and determines to request such compensation. Determinations by any Bank for purposes of this Section 2.17 of the effect of any Change in Law on its costs of making or maintaining Loans or on amounts receivable by it in respect of Loans, and of the additional amounts required to compensate any such Bank in respect of any Additional Costs, shall be conclusive, provided that such determinations are made on a reasonable basis. The provisions of this Section 2.17 shall survive termination of this Agreement.

2.18. Risk-Based Capital. In the event that any Bank determines that (1) any Change in Law or (2) compliance by such Bank or any corporation controlling such Bank with any guideline or request from any central bank or other governmental authority (whether or not having the force of law) has the effect of requiring an increase in the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by such Bank or any corporation controlling such Bank, and such Bank determines that such increase is based upon its obligations hereunder, and other similar obligations, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the applicable Bank, such additional amount as shall be certified by the Bank to be the amount allocable to such Bank’s obligations to the Borrower hereunder. Such Bank will notify the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of any event occurring after the Effective Date that will entitle such Bank to compensation pursuant to this Section 2.18 as promptly as practicable after it obtains knowledge thereof and determines to request such compensation. Determinations by any Bank for purposes of this Section 2.18 of the effect of any increase in the amount of capital required to be maintained by such Bank and of the amount allocable to such Bank’s obligations to the Borrower hereunder shall be conclusive, provided that such determinations are made on a reasonable basis. The provisions of this Section 2.18 shall survive termination of this Agreement.

2.19. Funding Loss Indemnification. Upon notice to the Borrower from a Bank (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Bank, such amount or amounts as shall be sufficient (in the reasonable opinion of such Bank) to compensate it for any loss, cost, or expense incurred as a result of (a) any payment of a LIBOR Loan on a date other than the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan, including payment upon acceleration of the Loans by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 8.1, any prepayment of a LIBOR Loan under Sections 2.15 or 2.16, or the replacement of any Bank pursuant to Section 10.4; or (b) any failure by the Borrower to borrow or convert, as the case may be, a LIBOR Loan on the date for borrowing or conversion, as the case may be, specified in the relevant notice under Section 2.6. The provisions of this Section 2.19 shall survive termination of this Agreement.

2.20. Swing Line Loans.

2.20.1. Upon the satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 3.2 and, if such Swing Line Loan is to be made on the date of the initial Advance hereunder, the satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 3.1 as well, the Swing Line Lender agrees, on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, to make Swing Line Loans to the Borrower from time to time during the period from and including the Effective Date up to but not including the Termination Date in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed the Swing Line Commitment, provided that immediately following the making of any Swing Line Loan, the Aggregate Outstanding Credit Exposure shall not exceed the lesser of (A) the Revolving Credit Commitment, or (B) the Available Borrowing Base in effect on such date. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, the Borrower may borrow, repay and reborrow Swing Line Loans at any time prior to the Termination Date.

2.20.2. The Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent and the Swing Line Lender irrevocable notice (a “Swing Line Borrowing Notice”) not later than noon (Tulsa time) on the requested date of disbursement, which shall be a Business Day (“Borrowing Date”) of each Swing Line Loan, specifying (i) the applicable Borrowing Date, and (ii) the aggregate amount of the requested Swing Line Loan which shall be an amount not less than $100,000.

2.20.3. Promptly after receipt of a Swing Line Borrowing Notice, the Swing Line Lender shall make available the Swing Line Loan, in funds immediately available to the Borrower on the Borrowing Date.

2.20.4. Each Swing Line Loan shall be paid in full by the Borrower on demand. In addition, the Swing Line Lender may at any time in its sole discretion with respect to any outstanding Swing Line Loan, require each Bank (including the Swing Line Lender) to make a Revolving Credit Loan in the amount of such Bank’s Pro Rata Share of such Swing Line Loan for the purpose of repaying such Swing Line Loan. Not later than noon (Tulsa time) on the date of any notice received pursuant to this Section 2.20.4, each Bank shall make available its required Revolving Credit Loan, in funds immediately available in Tulsa to the Administrative Agent at its address specified, pursuant to Section 2.4. Revolving Credit Loans made pursuant to this Section 2.20.4 shall initially be Base Rate Loans and thereafter may be continued as Base Rate Loans or converted into LIBOR Loans in the manner provided in Section 2.6 and subject to the other conditions and limitations set forth in this Section 2. Unless a Bank shall have notified the Swing Line Lender, prior to its making any Swing Line Loan, that any applicable condition precedent set forth in Sections 3.1 or 3.2 had not then been satisfied, such Bank’s obligation to make Revolving Credit Loans pursuant to this Section 2.20.4 to repay Swing Line Loans shall be unconditional, continuing, irrevocable and absolute and shall not be affected by any circumstances, including, without limitation, (a) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Bank may have against the Administrative Agent, the Swing Line Lender or any other Person, (b) the occurrence or continuance of a Default, (c) any adverse change in the condition (financial or otherwise) of the Borrower, or (d) any other circumstances, happening or event whatsoever. In the event that any Bank fails to make payment to the Administrative Agent of any amount due under this Section 2.20.4, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to receive, retain and apply against such obligation the principal and interest otherwise payable to such Bank hereunder until the Administrative Agent receives such payment from such Bank or such obligation is otherwise fully satisfied. In addition to the foregoing, if for any reason any Bank fails to make payment to the Administrative Agent of any amount due under this Section 2.20.4, such Bank shall be deemed, at the option of the Administrative Agent, to have unconditionally and irrevocably purchased from the Swing Line Lender, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation in the applicable Swing Line Loan in the amount of such Revolving Credit Loan, and such interest and participation may be recovered from such Bank together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Rate for each day during the period commencing on the date of demand and ending on the date such amount is received. On the Termination Date, the Borrower shall repay in full the outstanding principal balance of the Swing Line Loans.

2.21. Defaulting Banks. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Bank becomes a Defaulting Bank, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Bank is a Defaulting Bank:

2.21.1. The Unused Portion Fee shall cease to accrue on the unfunded portion of the Revolving Credit Commitment of such Defaulting Bank pursuant to Section 2.9.

2.21.2. The Revolving Credit Commitment and Outstanding Credit Exposure of such Defaulting Bank shall not be included in determining whether all Banks or the Majority Banks have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment or waiver pursuant to Section 11.1), provided that any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Banks or each affected Bank which affects such Defaulting Bank differently than any other affected Bank shall require the consent of such Defaulting Bank.

2.21.3. If any Swing Line Loans or L/C Obligations exist or are outstanding at the time a Bank becomes a Defaulting Bank, then:

(a) all or any part of such Defaulting Bank’s share of participations in such Swing Line Loans and L/C Obligations shall be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Banks in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares, but only to the extent (x) the sum of all non-Defaulting Bank’s Revolving Credit Exposures plus such Defaulting Bank’s share of participations in such Swing Line Loans and L/C Obligations does not exceed the total of all non-Defaulting Banks’ Commitments and (y) the conditions set forth in Section 3.2 are satisfied at such time;

(b) if the reallocation described in clause (a) above cannot be effected or can only partially be effected, the Borrower shall within one Business Day following notice by the Administrative Agent (x) first, prepay such Swing Line Loans and (y) second, cash collateralize such Defaulting Bank’s share of outstanding L/C Obligations (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (a) above) for so long as such L/C Obligations are outstanding;

(c) if the Borrower cash collateralizes any portion of such Defaulting Bank’s share of outstanding L/C Obligations pursuant to this Section 2.21.3, the Borrower shall not be required to pay any fees with respect to such Defaulting Bank pursuant to Section 2.2.4 during the period such Defaulting Bank’s share of outstanding L/C Obligations is cash collateralized;

(d) if the share of the outstanding L/C Obligations of the non-Defaulting Bank is reallocated pursuant to this Section 2.21.3, then the fees payable to the Banks pursuant to Section 2.2.4 and Section 2.9 shall be adjusted in accordance with such non-Defaulting Banks’ Pro Rata Shares; and

(e) if any Defaulting Bank’s share of the outstanding L/C Obligations is neither cash collateralized nor reallocated pursuant to this Section 2.21.3, then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of the L/C Issuer, any Bank or the Borrower hereunder, all Unused Portion Fee that otherwise would have been payable to such Defaulting Bank (solely with respect to the portion of such Defaulting Bank’s Revolving Commitment that was utilized by such outstanding L/C Obligations) and letter of credit fees payable under Section 2.2.4 with respect to such Defaulting Bank shall be payable to the Issuing Bank until such share is cash collateralized and/or reallocated.

2.21.4. So long as any Bank is a Defaulting Bank, the Swing Line Lender shall not be required to fund any Swing Line Loan and the L/C Issuer shall not be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless it is satisfied that the related exposure will be 100% covered by the Revolving Credit Commitments of the non-Defaulting Banks and/or cash collateral will be provided by the Borrower in accordance with Section 2.21.3), and participating interests in any such newly issued or increased Letter of Credit or newly made Swing Line Loan shall be allocated among non-Defaulting Banks in a manner consistent with Section 2.21.3 (and the Defaulting Bank shall not participate therein).

2.21.5. If any Defaulting Bank shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to this Agreement, then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion and notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, (i) apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Bank to satisfy such Defaulting Bank’s funding obligations hereunder until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid, and/or (ii) hold any such amounts in a segregated account as cash collateral for, and application to, any future funding obligations of such Defaulting Bank.

In the event that the Administrative Agent, the Borrower, the L/C Bank and the Swing Line Lender each agrees that a Defaulting Bank has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Bank to be a Defaulting Bank, then the participations of the Banks in all outstanding Swing Line Loans and L/C Obligations shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Bank’s Revolving Credit Commitment and on such date such Bank shall purchase at par such of the Revolving Credit Loans of the other Banks (other than Swing Line Loans) as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Bank to hold such Revolving Credit Loans in accordance with its Pro Rata Share.

2.22. Accordion.

2.22.1. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 2.22, and provided no Default or Matured Default exists, the Borrower shall have the right from time to time on or before the Termination Date (but in no event more than two (2) times during the term of this Agreement), upon not less than 30 days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent (such written notice being herein referred to as a “Revolving Credit Increase Notice”), to increase on the date specified in the Revolving Credit Increase Notice (the “Revolving Credit Increase Date”), the amount of the Revolving Credit Commitment by the amount specified in the Revolving Credit Increase Notice (the “Revolving Credit Increase Amount”) which shall be a minimum of $10,000,000; provided, however, that in no event shall the amount of the Revolving Credit Loans and the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitment be increased to an amount greater than $190,000,000, and further provided, however, that no such Revolving Credit Increase Amount shall be permitted under this Agreement if a Default or Matured Default shall exist on the date the Administrative Agent receives the Revolving Credit Increase Notice or on the Revolving Credit Increase Date.

2.22.2. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Banks of any Revolving Credit Increase Notice from the Borrower, and within 10 Business Days after receipt of such Revolving Credit Increase Notice, each of the Banks shall notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of its determination whether to participate in the requested increase in the Revolving Credit Commitment. If one or more of the Banks elects not to increase its Commitment (or to increase its Commitment by an amount less than its Pro Rata of the Revolving Credit Increase Amount), the Borrower may request that the other Banks increase their Commitments by the amount of the shortfall or seek to obtain Commitments from other financial institutions to become additional Banks under this Agreement (subject to the consent of the Administrative Agent, but without the consent of any other Banks). The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of any financial institution that shall have agreed to become an additional Bank party to this Agreement (a “New Bank”) in connection with a Revolving Credit Increase Notice and the amount of its proposed Commitment, and the Administrative Agent shall then have a period of five Business Days in which to consent or withhold consent to the admission of the proposed New Bank. If the Borrower is unable within 30 days after delivering any Revolving Credit Increase Notice to obtain approval from the Banks to increase their Commitments and/or to secure Commitments from New Banks for the full amount of the Revolving Credit Increase Amount, the Revolving Credit Increase Notice shall become effective only to the extent of the increased or new Commitments actually obtained; provided that no increase in the Revolving Credit Commitment shall become effective unless the Borrower is able to obtain approval from one or more Banks to increase their Commitments and/or to secure Commitments from New Banks for an aggregate increase in the Revolving Credit Commitment of at least $5,000,000. Nothing contained herein shall constitute, or otherwise be deemed to be, a commitment on the part of any Bank to increase its Commitment at any time, and no Bank shall be obligated to agree to any increase in its Commitment.

2.22.3. Any increase in the Revolving Credit Commitment shall be subject to the satisfaction of the following conditions precedent at or as of the Revolving Credit Increase Date: (i) no Default or Matured Default shall have occurred and then be continuing; (ii) all representations and warranties contained in this Agreement shall be true and correct in all material respects as though made on such date; (iii) each Bank that shall have agreed to provide an increase in its Commitment shall have confirmed such increase to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing; (iv) each New Bank shall have executed and delivered such documents as the Administrative Agent shall have reasonably required in order for it to subscribe to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and agree to be bound by the terms and provisions hereof and thereof or as the Administrative Agent shall have reasonably requested in connection with such increase; (v) each New Bank shall have executed and delivered a supplement to the Prudential Intercreditor Agreement and such other documents as may be reasonably required in order for it to subscribe to the terms and conditions of the Prudential Intercreditor Agreement; (vi) counsel for the Borrower shall have provided to the Administrative Agent a supplemental opinion in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent; (vii) the outstanding Loans shall have been reallocated ratably among the Banks (including new Banks) after giving effect to such increase; and (viii) all legal matters incident to such increase and the admission of any New Banks under this Agreement shall be satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and its counsel. The Borrower agrees to compensate each Bank, to the extent required by Section 2.19, for any losses or expenses incurred by such Bank in connection with the reallocation of any outstanding Revolving Credit Loans. The Borrower shall execute and deliver (i) to each Bank that shall have agreed to provide an increase in its Commitment, a substitute Note payable to the order of such Bank in the principal amount of its increased Commitment, and (ii) to each New Bank, a new Note payable to the order of each New Bank in the principal amount of its Commitment. No increase in the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitment shall become effective unless and until each of the foregoing conditions precedent has been satisfied.

3.1. Conditions Precedent to Effective Date.

(a) a Mortgage covering such Mortgaged Property, together with any other documents, agreements or instruments necessary to create a mortgage Lien on such Mortgaged Property;

(b) if requested by the Collateral Agent, a favorable opinion from local counsel located in the jurisdiction of such Mortgaged Property;

(c) an ALTA lender’s title insurance policy issued by a title insurer reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent, in form and substance and in amounts reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent insuring that such Mortgage creates a valid and enforceable first priority mortgage Lien on such Mortgaged Property, free and clear of all defects and encumbrances except Excepted Liens, and containing such endorsements as the Collateral Agent may have reasonably requested;

(d) a current survey of such Mortgaged Property, certified by a licensed or registered surveyor, to the extent required in order for the title insurer to delete the standard survey exception from the title insurance policy covering such Mortgaged Property;

(e) verification that such Mortgaged Property is not located in an area designated by the Federal Emergency Management Agency as having special flood or mud slide hazards;

(f) if requested by the Collateral Agent or the title insurer, satisfactory evidence that such Mortgaged Property is zoned for its current use; and

5.12.2. Within 60 days following the Effective Date, (i) the Borrower shall cause SMF to execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent such amendments to existing Mortgages, in recordable form, as may be required by the Collateral Agent in the reasonable exercise of its sole discretion in order to reflect of record that such Mortgages secure all of the Obligations hereunder, and (ii) the Borrower (or SMF) shall cause to be issued to the Collateral Agent such date-down endorsements (or commitments for the issuance thereof) to the previously-issued title insurance policies as may be required by the Collateral Agent in the reasonable exercise of its sole discretion to verify that marketable title to the Mortgaged Properties remains vested in SMF, free and clear of any Liens (other than Excepted Liens).

5.12.3. The Borrower may at any time grant or cause to be granted an Acceptable Security Interest in favor of the Collateral Agent on other real Properties owned by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries by furnishing the items described in clauses (a) through (g) of Section 5.12.1.

5.13. Rolling Stock. The Borrower shall at all times maintain satisfactory arrangements for the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of Secured Parties, to have an Acceptable Security Interest in Rolling Stock representing at least 85% of the current Net Orderly Liquidation Value of the Borrower’s Rolling Stock. Such arrangements shall include (i) the Borrower’s execution and delivery of such agreements as the Vehicle Title Service Company may reasonably require, (ii) the Borrower’s delivery to the Vehicle Title Service Company of the certificates of title covering Rolling Stock that, when combined with Rolling Stock as to which perfection of the Collateral Agent’s has been accomplished through the filing of financing statements pursuant to the UCC, represents at least 85% of the Net Orderly Liquidation Value of the Borrower’s Rolling Stock and notation of the Collateral Agent’s Lien on each certificate of title so delivered, and (iii) the Borrower’s payment of the normal set-up and service charges of the Vehicle Title Service Company and the filing fees payable in connection with the notation of the Collateral Agent’s Lien on each certificate of title so delivered. Upon the request of the Collateral Agent following the occurrence of any Default, the Borrower will cooperate with the Vehicle Title Service Company in causing the certificates of title on all Rolling Stock to be promptly delivered to the Vehicle Title Service Company and in causing the Collateral Agent’s Lien to be noted on each certificate of title.

8.1.16. any provision of the Guaranty Agreement after delivery thereof shall for any reason cease to be valid and binding on a Guarantor and such Guarantor shall fail to cure the same within 10 days of written demand by the Administrative Agent, or a Guarantor shall so state in writing; or

8.1.17. (i)  the Borrower shall fail to pay any Prudential Term Notes when due; (ii) the Borrower shall default in the performance of any term, provision or conditions contained in the Prudential Agreement, or any other event shall occur or condition exist, the effect of which is to cause or permit the holder or holders of the Prudential Term Notes to cause the Prudential Term Notes to become due prior to their stated maturity; or (iii) the Prudential Term Notes shall be declared to be due and payable or required to be prepaid (other than by a regularly scheduled payment or as a result of the sale of an asset securing such Prudential Term Notes) prior to the stated maturity thereof; or

8.2. Remedies. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Matured Default, the Administrative Agent shall at the request of, or may with the consent of, the Majority Banks proceed to enforce its rights and remedies under the Collateral Documents, this Agreement, and any other Loan Document for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties by appropriate proceedings. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Matured Default, each Bank is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, without notice to the Borrower (any such notice being expressly waived by the Borrower), to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by such Bank to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against any and all of the obligations of the Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or the Bank’s Note or any other Loan Document, irrespective of whether or not the Administrative Agent or such Bank shall have made any demand under this Agreement or such Bank’s Note or such other Loan Document and although such obligations may be unmatured. Each Bank agrees promptly to notify the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) after any such setoff and application, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application. The rights of each Bank under this Section 8.2 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including, without limitation, other rights of setoff) which each such Bank may have.

8.3. Other Remedies. If any Default or Matured Default shall occur and be continuing, each Bank may proceed to protect and enforce its rights under this Agreement and the Notes by exercising such remedies as are available to such Bank in respect thereof under applicable law, either by suit in equity or by action at law, or both, whether for specific performance of any covenant or other agreement contained in this Agreement or in aid of the exercise of any power granted in this Agreement. No remedy conferred in this Agreement upon any Bank is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy, and each and every such remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy conferred herein or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise.

8.4. Application of Proceeds. From and during the continuance of any Matured Default, any monies or property actually received by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, the exercise of any rights or remedies under any Collateral Document or any other agreement with the Borrower or any Subsidiary which secures any of the Obligations, shall be applied in the following order (subject to the applicable sharing provisions of the Prudential Intercreditor Agreement and subject to Section 2.21.5):

(a) First, to payment of the reasonable expenses, liabilities, losses, costs, duties, fees, charges or other moneys whatsoever (together with interest payable thereon) as may have been paid or incurred in, about or incidental to any sale or other realization of Collateral, including reasonable compensation to the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and to the ratable payment of any other unreimbursed reasonable expenses and indemnities for which the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Bank is to be reimbursed pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, in each case that are then due and payable;

(b) Second, to the ratable payment of accrued but unpaid fees of the Administrative Agent, Unused Portion Fees, letter of credit fees owing to the Administrative Agent and the Banks under this Agreement;

(c) Third, to the ratable payment of accrued but unpaid interest on the Loans and any unpaid L/C Obligations then due and payable under this Agreement;

(d) Fourth, to the Collateral Agent to cash collateralize the L/C Obligations;

(e) Fifth, ratably, according to the then unpaid amounts thereof, without preference or priority of any kind among them, to the ratable payment of all other Obligations then due and payable which relate to Loans and Letters of Credit and which are owing to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Banks;

(f) Sixth, ratably, according to the unpaid termination amounts thereof, to the payment of all Rate Management Obligations of the Borrower or its Subsidiaries owing to any Bank (or Affiliate of any Bank), to the extent then due and payable;

(g) Seventh, ratably according to the unpaid amounts thereof, to the payment of all Obligations owing to the Banks with respect to any Treasury Management Agreements;

(h) Eighth, to the ratable payment of any other Obligations then due and payable; and

(i) Ninth, any excess after payment in full of all Obligations shall be paid to the Borrower or to such other Person who may be lawfully entitled to receive such excess.

9.1. Authorization and Action. Each Bank hereby appoints BOKF to act on its behalf as the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes each Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement as are delegated to such Agent by the terms hereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The duties of each Agent shall be mechanical and administrative in nature, and neither Agent shall by reason of this Agreement be a trustee or fiduciary for any Bank. Neither Agent shall have any duties or responsibilities except those expressly set forth herein or in the Prudential Intercreditor Agreement. As to any matters not expressly provided for by this Agreement (including enforcement or collection of the Obligations), neither 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 so refraining from acting) upon the instructions of the Majority Banks, and such instructions shall be binding upon all Banks and all holders of Notes; provided, however, that neither Agent shall be required to take any action which exposes such Agent to personal liability or which is contrary to this Agreement or applicable law.

9.2. Liability of Agents. Neither of the Agents nor any of its directors, officers, agents or employees shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them under or in connection with this Agreement in the absence of its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limitation of the generality of the foregoing, each Agent (1) may treat the payee of any Note as the holder thereof until such Agent receives written notice of the assignment or transfer thereof signed by such payee and in form satisfactory to such Agent; (2) may consult with legal counsel, 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; (3) makes no warranty or representation to any Bank and shall not be responsible to any Bank for any statements, warranties, or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement; (4) 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 on the part of the Borrower, or to inspect the Properties (including the books and records) of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries; (5) shall not be responsible to any Bank for the due execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, perfection, sufficiency, or value of this Agreement or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant thereto; and (6) shall incur no liability under or in respect of this Agreement by acting upon any notice, consent, certificate, or other instrument or writing (which may be sent by telegram, telex, or facsimile transmission) believed by it to be genuine and signed or sent by the proper party or parties.

9.3. Rights of Agent as a Bank. With respect to its Commitment, the Loans made by it and the Note issued to it, each Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Bank and may exercise the same as though it were not an Agent; and the term “Bank” or “Banks” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated, include each Agent in its individual capacity. Each of the Agents and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as trustee under indentures of, and generally engage in any kind of business with, the Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries and any Person who may do business with or own securities of the Borrower or any Subsidiary, all as if such Agent were not an Agent and without any duty to account therefor to the Banks.

9.4. Independent Credit Decisions. Each Bank acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Agents or any other Bank and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Bank also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon either Agent or any other Bank 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. Except for notices, reports and other documents and information expressly required to be furnished to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower or any Subsidiary hereunder or under any other Loan Document (each of which the Administrative Agent shall promptly upon receipt provide to each Bank), the Administrative Agent shall have no duty or responsibility to provide any Bank with any credit or other information concerning the affairs, financial condition or business of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (or any of their Affiliates) which may come into the possession of the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates.

9.5. Indemnification. The Banks agree to indemnify each of the Agents (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower), ratably according to the respective amounts 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 which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against either Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any action taken or omitted by either Agent under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, provided that no Bank shall be liable for any portion of any of the foregoing resulting from such Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Bank agrees to reimburse each of the Agents (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower) promptly upon demand for its Pro Rata Share of any out-of-pocket expenses (including counsel fees) incurred by such Agent in connection with the preparation, administration, or enforcement of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents.

9.6. Successor Agent. Each Agent may resign at any time by giving at least sixty (60) days’ prior written notice thereof to the Banks and the Borrower and may be removed at any time with cause, but not without cause, by the Majority Banks. Upon any such resignation or removal, the Majority Banks shall have the right to appoint a successor Agent. If no successor Agent shall have been so appointed by the Majority Banks, and shall have accepted such appointment, within forty-five (45) days after the retiring Agent’s giving of notice of resignation or the Majority Banks’ removal of the retiring Agent, then the retiring Agent may, on behalf of the Banks, appoint a successor Agent, which shall be a commercial bank organized under the laws of the United States of America or of any State thereof and having a combined capital and surplus of at least $250,000,000. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as an Agent hereunder by a successor Agent, such successor Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. After any retiring Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder as Agent, the provisions of this Section 9 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.

9.7. Sharing of Payments, Etc. If any Bank shall obtain any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of setoff, or otherwise) on account of the Note held by it in excess of its Pro Rata Share of payments on account of the Notes obtained by all the Banks, such Bank shall purchase from the other Banks such participations in the Notes held by them as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Bank to share the excess payment ratably with each of the other Banks, provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from such purchasing Bank, such purchase from each Bank shall be rescinded and each Bank shall repay to the purchasing Bank the purchase price to the extent of such recovery together with an amount equal to such Bank’s Pro Rata Share (according to the proportion of (1) the amount of such Bank’s required repayment to (2) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Bank) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Bank in respect of the total amount so recovered. The Borrower agrees that any Bank so purchasing a participation from another Bank pursuant to this Section 9.7 may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of setoff) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Bank were the direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation.

9.8. Collateral and Guaranty Matters.

9.8.1. Each Bank and each other Secured Party (by its acceptance of the benefits of any Lien encumbering Collateral) acknowledges and agrees that the Collateral Agent has entered into the Collateral Documents on behalf of itself and the Secured Parties, and the Secured Parties hereby agree to be bound by the terms of such Collateral Documents, acknowledge receipt of copies of such Collateral Documents and consent to the rights, powers, remedies, indemnities and exculpations given to the Collateral Agent thereunder. All rights, powers and remedies available to the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties with respect to the Collateral, or otherwise pursuant to the Collateral Documents, shall be subject to the provisions of such Collateral Documents. Each Bank and each other Secured Party (by its acceptance of the benefits of any Lien encumbering Collateral) hereby authorizes the Collateral Agent, at its option and in its discretion, without the necessity of any notice to or further consent from the Secured Parties:

(a) to release any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Collateral Agent under any Collateral Document (i) upon termination of the Commitments and payment in full of all Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations) and the expiration or termination of all Letters of Credit, (ii) that is Transferred or to be Transferred as part of or in connection with any Transfer permitted hereunder or under any other Loan Document, or (iii) subject to Sections 7.6 and 11.1, if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Majority Banks;

(b) to take any actions with respect to any Collateral or Collateral Documents which may be necessary to perfect and maintain Acceptable Security Interests in and Liens upon the Collateral granted pursuant to the Collateral Documents; and

(c) to take any action in exigent circumstances as may be reasonably necessary to preserve any rights or privileges of the Secured Parties under the Loan Documents or applicable legal requirements.

9.8.2. Upon the request of the Collateral Agent at any time, the Secured Parties will confirm in writing the Collateral Agent’s authority to release particular types or items of Collateral pursuant to this Section 9.8.

9.8.3. The Borrower (for itself and each of its Subsidiaries) irrevocably appoints the Collateral Agent as its attorney-in-fact, with full authority to, after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Matured Default, act for the Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries and in the name of the Borrower or any Subsidiary to, in the Collateral Agent’s discretion upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a Matured Default, (i) file one or more financing or continuation statements, and amendments thereto, relative to all or any part of the Collateral without the signature of such party where permitted by law, (ii) to receive, endorse, and collect any drafts or other instruments, documents, and chattel paper which are part of the Collateral, (iii) to ask, demand, collect, sue for, recover, compromise, receive, and give acquittance and receipts for moneys due and to become due under or in respect of any of the Collateral, (iv) to file any claims or take any action or institute any proceedings which the Collateral Agent may reasonably deem necessary or desirable for the collection of any of the Collateral or otherwise to enforce the rights of the Collateral Agent with respect to any of the Collateral and (v) if the Borrower or any Subsidiary fails to perform any covenant contained in this Agreement or the other Collateral Documents after the expiration of any applicable grace periods, the Collateral Agent may itself perform, or cause performance of, such covenant, and the Borrower shall pay for the expenses of the Collateral Agent incurred in connection therewith. The power of attorney granted hereby is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable.

9.8.4. The powers conferred on the Collateral Agent under this Agreement and the other Collateral Documents are solely to protect its interest in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon it to exercise any such powers. Beyond the safe custody thereof, the Collateral Agent and each Secured Party shall have no duty with respect to any Collateral in its possession or control (or in the possession or control of any agent or bailee) or with respect to any income thereon or the preservation of rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining thereto. The Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Collateral in its possession if the Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which the Collateral Agent accords its own property. None of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Bank or any other Secured Party shall be liable or responsible for any loss or damage to any of the Collateral, or for any diminution in the value thereof, by reason of the act or omission of any warehouseman, carrier, forwarding agency, consignee, broker or other agent or bailee selected by Borrower or selected by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent in good faith.

9.8.5. The rights, duties, protections and immunities afforded to the Collateral Agent under the terms of the Prudential Intercreditor Agreement are in addition to the rights, duties, protections and immunities applicable to the Collateral Agent under the terms of this Section 9. In the event of any irreconcilable conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and the provisions of the Prudential Intercreditor Agreement with respect to the rights, duties, protection and immunities of the Collateral Agent, the provisions of the Prudential Intercreditor Agreement shall govern.

9.9. No Other Duties. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Joint Lead Arrangers and the Documentation Agent listed on the cover page hereof shall not have any powers, duties or responsibilities under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, except in its capacity, as applicable, as a Bank.

10.1. Successors and Assigns. The terms and provisions of the Loan Documents shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrower and the Banks and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that (i) the Borrower shall not have the right to assign its rights or obligations under the Loan Documents without the prior written consent of each Bank, (ii) any assignment by any Bank must be made in compliance with Section 10.3, and (iii) any transfer by Participation must be made in compliance with Section 10.2. Any attempted assignment or transfer by any party not made in compliance with this Section 10.1 shall be null and void, unless such attempted assignment or transfer is treated as a participation in accordance with Section 10.3.2. The parties to this Agreement acknowledge that clause (ii) of this Section 10.1 relates only to absolute assignments and this Section 10.1 does not prohibit assignments creating security interests, including, without limitation, (x) any pledge or assignment by any Bank of all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement and any Note to a Federal Reserve Bank or (y) in the case of a Bank which is an Approved Fund, any pledge or assignment of all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement and any Note to its trustee in support of its obligations to its trustee; provided, however, that no such pledge or assignment creating a security interest shall release the transferor Bank from its obligations hereunder unless and until the parties thereto have complied with the provisions of Section 10.3. The Administrative Agent may treat the Person which made any Loan or which holds any Note as the owner thereof for all purposes hereof unless and until such Person complies with Section 10.3; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent may in its discretion (but shall not be required to) follow instructions from the Person which made any Loan or which holds any Note to direct payments relating to such Loan or Note to another Person. Any assignee of the rights to any Loan or any Note agrees by acceptance of such assignment to be bound by all the terms and provisions of the Loan Documents. Any request, authority or consent of any Person, who at the time of making such request or giving such authority or consent is the owner of the rights to any Loan (whether or not a Note has been issued in evidence thereof), shall be conclusive and binding on any subsequent holder or assignee of the rights to such Loan.

10.2. Participations.

10.2.1. Any Bank may, without the consent of Borrower but with the consent of Agent, at any time sell to one or more banks or other entities (“Participants”) participating interests in any Loan owing to such Bank, any Note held by such Bank, any Commitment of such Bank or any other interest of such Bank under the Loan Documents. In the event of any such sale by a Bank of participating interests to a Participant, such Bank’s obligations under the Loan Documents shall remain unchanged, such Bank shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, such Bank shall remain the owner of its Loans and the holder of any Note issued to it in evidence thereof for all purposes under the Loan Documents, all amounts payable by the Borrower under this Agreement shall be determined as if such Bank had not sold such participating interests, and the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Bank in connection with such Bank’s rights and obligations under the Loan Documents.

10.2.2. Each Bank shall retain the sole right to approve, without the consent of any Participant, any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of the Loan Documents other than any amendment, modification or waiver with respect to any Loan or Commitment in which such Participant has an interest which would require consent of all of the Banks.

10.2.3. The Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be deemed to have the right of setoff provided in Section 8.2 in respect of its participating interest in amounts owing under the Loan Documents to the same extent as if the amount of its participating interest were owing directly to it as a Bank under the Loan Documents, provided that each Bank shall retain the right of setoff provided in Section 8.2 with respect to the amount of participating interests sold to each Participant. The Banks agree to share with each Participant, and each Participant, by exercising the right of setoff provided in Section 8.2, agrees to share with each Bank, any amount received pursuant to the exercise of its right of setoff, such amounts to be shared in accordance with Section 8.2as if each Participant were a Bank. The Borrower further agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.17, 2.18 and 2.19 to the same extent as if it were a Bank and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 10.3, provided that a Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 2.17, 2.18 and 2.19 than the Bank who sold the participating interest to such Participant would have received had it retained such interest for its own account, unless the sale of such interest to such Participant is made with the prior written consent of the Borrower.

10.3. Assignments.

10.3.1. Any Bank may at any time assign to one or more banks or other entities (“Purchasers”) all or any part of its rights and obligations under the Loan Documents. Such assignment shall be in the form of an Assignment and Assumption and shall be accompanied by an executed supplement to the Prudential Intercreditor Agreement in the form of Attachment A to the Prudential Intercreditor Agreement. Each such assignment with respect to a Purchaser which is not a Bank or an Affiliate of a Bank shall either be in an amount equal to the entire applicable Commitment and Loans of the assigning Bank or (unless each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consents) be in an aggregate amount not less than $5,000,000. The amount of the assignment shall be based on the Commitment or outstanding Loans (if the Commitment has been terminated) subject to the assignment, determined as of the date of such assignment or as of the “Trade Date,” if the “Trade Date” is specified in the assignment.

10.3.2. The consent of the Borrower shall be required prior to an assignment becoming effective unless the Purchaser is a Bank, an Affiliate of a Bank or an Approved Fund; provided that the consent of the Borrower shall not be required if a Default or Matured Default has occurred and is continuing. The consent of the Administrative Agent shall be required prior to an assignment becoming effective unless the Purchaser is a Bank, an Affiliate of a Bank or an Approved Fund. Any consent required under this Section 10.3.2 shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

10.3.3. Upon (i) delivery to the Administrative Agent of an Assignment and Assumption, together with an executed supplement to the Prudential Intercreditor Agreement in the form of Attachment A to the Prudential Intercreditor Agreement and any consents required by Sections 10.3.1 and 10.3.2, and (ii) payment of $3,500 fee to the Administrative Agent for processing such assignment (unless such fee is waived by the Administrative Agent), such assignment shall become effective on the effective date specified in such Assignment and Assumption. The assignment shall contain a representation by the Purchaser to the effect that none of the consideration used to make the purchase of the Commitment and Loans under the applicable Assignment and Assumption constitutes “plan assets” as defined under ERISA and that the rights and interests of the Purchaser in and under the Loan Documents will not be “plan assets” under ERISA, unless an exemption from the prohibited transaction provisions of ERISA and the Code is available. On and after the effective date of such assignment, such Purchaser shall for all purposes be a Bank party to this Agreement and any other Loan Document executed by or on behalf of the Banks and shall have all the rights and obligations of a Bank under the Loan Documents, to the same extent as if it were an original party thereto, and the transferor Bank shall be released with respect to the Commitment and Loans assigned to such Purchaser without any further consent or action by the Borrower, the Banks or the Administrative Agent. In the case of an assignment covering all of the assigning Bank’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Bank shall cease to be a Bank hereunder but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of, and subject to, those provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents which survive payment of the Obligations and termination of the applicable agreement. Any assignment or transfer by a Bank of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 10.3 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Bank of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with Section 10.2. Upon the consummation of any assignment to a Purchaser pursuant to this Section 10.3.3, the transferor Bank, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall, if the transferor Bank or the Purchaser desires that its Loans be evidenced by Notes, make appropriate arrangements so that new Notes or, as appropriate, replacement Notes are issued to such transferor Bank and new Notes or, as appropriate, replacement Notes, are issued to such Purchaser, in each case in principal amounts reflecting their respective Commitments, as adjusted pursuant to such assignment.

10.3.4. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices in Tulsa, Oklahoma a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Banks, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts of the Loans owing to, each Bank pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Banks may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Bank hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Bank, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

10.4. Replacement of Banks. If (i) a Bank (a “Non-Consenting Bank”) does not consent to a proposed change, waiver, discharge or termination with respect to any Loan Document that has been approved by the Majority Banks as provided in Section 11.1 but requires unanimous consent of all Banks or, as applicable, all Banks directly affected thereby, or (ii) any Bank is a Defaulting Bank, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Bank and the Administrative Agent, require such Bank to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 10.1), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan Documents to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Bank, if a Bank accepts such assignment), provided that:

(a) the Borrower shall have paid to the Administrative Agent the assignment fee specified in Section 10.3.3;

(b) such Bank shall have received payment of an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of the outstanding Revolving Credit Loans, L/C Obligations and Swing Line Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents including any amounts under Section 2.19) from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts);

(c) such assignment does not conflict with applicable Laws; and

(d) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a Non-Consenting Bank’s failure to consent to a proposed change, waiver, discharge or termination with respect to any Loan Document, the applicable replacement bank or financial institution shall have consented to the proposed change, waiver, discharge or termination.

The failure by any Non-Consenting Bank or Defaulting Bank to execute and deliver an Assignment and Assumption shall not impair the validity of the removal of such Bank and the mandatory assignment of such Bank’s portion of the outstanding Revolving Credit Loans, L/C Obligations and Swing Line Loans pursuant to this Section 10.4 shall nevertheless be effective without the execution by such Bank of an Assignment and Assumption.

A Bank shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Bank or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

10.5. Disclosure of Information. The Borrower authorizes each Bank to disclose to any Participant or Purchaser or any other Person acquiring an interest in the Loan Documents by operation of law (each a “Transferee”) and any prospective Transferee any and all information in such Bank’s possession concerning the creditworthiness of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries.

11.1. Amendments, Etc. No amendment, modification, termination, or waiver of any provision of any Loan Document to which the Borrower is a party, nor consent to any departure by the Borrower from any Loan Document to which it is a party, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Majority Banks, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given, provided, however, that no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by all the Banks, do any of the following: (1) waive any of the conditions precedent specified in Section 3; (2) increase the Commitments of the Banks or subject the Banks to any additional obligations; (3) increase any percentage appearing in the definition of Borrowing Base in Section 1.1; (4) reduce the principal of, or interest on, the Notes, any L/C Obligations or any fees hereunder; (5) postpone any date fixed for any payment of principal of, or interest on, the Notes, any L/C Obligations or any fees hereunder; (6) release any of the Guarantors from the Guaranty; (7) release all or any substantial portion of the Collateral or subordinate all or any substantial portion of the Collateral to the Liens held by any other Person; (8) change the percentage of the Commitments or of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Notes or the number of Banks which shall be required for the Banks or any of them to take action hereunder; (9) amend the provisions of Section 8.4; or (10) amend, modify or waive any provision of this Section 11.1; and provided further that (i) no amendment, waiver, or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by the affected Agent or the L/C Issuer (in addition to the Banks required above to take such action) affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or the L/C Issuer under any of the Loan Documents, and (ii) no Defaulting Bank shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder, except that the Commitment of such Defaulting Bank may not be increased or extended without the consent of such Defaulting Bank.

11.2. Notices, Etc. All notices and other communications provided for under this Agreement and under the other Loan Documents to which the Borrower is a party shall be in writing (including telegraphic, telex, and facsimile transmissions) and mailed or transmitted or delivered, at the addresses set forth on the respective signature pages hereto; or, as to each party, at such other address as shall be designated by such party in a written notice to all other parties complying as to delivery with the terms of this Section 11.2. Except as is otherwise provided in this Agreement, all such notices and communications shall be effective when deposited in the mails or delivered to the telegraph company, or sent, answerback received, respectively, addressed as aforesaid, except that notices to the Administrative Agent pursuant to the provisions of Section 2 shall not be effective until received by the Administrative Agent.

11.3. No Waiver. No failure or delay on the part of any Bank or the Administrative Agent in exercising any right, power, or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power, or remedy preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power, or remedy hereunder. The rights and remedies provided herein are cumulative, and are not exclusive of any other rights, powers, privileges, or remedies, now or hereafter existing, at law or in equity or otherwise.

11.4. Successors and Assigns. The Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrower, each Bank and each Agent and their respective successors and assigns, except that the Borrower may not assign or transfer any of its rights under any Loan Document to which the Borrower is a party without the prior written consent of all the Banks.

11.5. Costs, Expenses and Taxes. The Borrower agrees to pay on demand (i) all out-of-pocket expenses reasonably incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the L/C Issuer in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, filing, and administration of the Loan Documents, and of any amendment, modification, or supplement to the Loan Documents, including the fees and out-of-pocket expenses of counsel for either Agent incurred in connection with advising such Agent or any of the Banks as to their rights and responsibilities hereunder, (ii) all out-of-pocket expenses reasonably incurred by the L/C Issuer in connection with the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or any demand for payment thereunder, and (iii) all out-of-pocket expenses reasonably incurred by either Agent or the L/C Issuer (including the fees, charges and disbursements of counsel for either Agent or the L/C Issuer) in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including all such out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of the outstanding Loans or Letters of Credit. The foregoing costs and expenses shall include the fees and charges of the Vehicle Title Service Company, all search, filing, recording, title insurance, appraisal, and environmental assessment fees and charges (and all taxes related thereto), and other out-of-pocket expenses incurred by either Agent or the L/C Issuer. The Borrower also agrees to pay all such costs and expenses, including court costs, incurred by any Bank in connection with enforcement of the Loan Documents, or any amendment, modification, or supplement thereto, whether by negotiation, legal proceedings, or otherwise. In addition, the Borrower shall pay any and all stamp and other taxes and fees payable or determined to be payable in connection with the executing, delivery, filing, and recording of any of the Loan Documents and the other documents to be delivered under any such Loan Documents, and agrees to hold each Agent and each Bank harmless from and against any and all liabilities with respect to or resulting from any delay in paying or failing to pay such taxes and fees. The provisions of this Section 11.5 shall survive termination of this Agreement.

11.6. Integration. This Agreement and the Loan Documents contain the entire agreement between the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede all oral statements and prior writings with respect thereto.

11.7. Indemnity. The Borrower hereby agrees to defend and indemnify each Agent, the L/C Issuer, the Swing Line Lender and each Bank and each Affiliate of each of the foregoing, and the partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, trustees, administrators, managers, advisors and representatives of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an "Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, penalties, incremental taxes, liabilities and related expenses, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated thereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder, or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, (ii) any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by the L/C Issuer to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit), (iii) any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property owned or operated by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or any liability under any Environmental and Safety Laws related in any way to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, and (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, penalties, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee. WITHOUT LIMITATION OF THE FOREGOING, IT IS THE INTENTION OF THE BORROWER, AND THE BORROWER AGREES THAT, THE FOREGOING INDEMNITIES SHALL APPLY TO EACH INDEMNITEE WITH RESPECT TO LOSSES, CLAIMS, DAMAGES, PENALTIES, LIABILITIES AND RELATED EXPENSES (INCLUDING ALL EXPENSES OF LITIGATION OR PREPARATION THEREFOR), WHICH IN WHOLE OR IN PART ARE CAUSED BY OR ARISE OUT OF THE NEGLIGENCE OF SUCH (AND/OR ANY OTHER) INDEMNITEE. The provisions of this Section 11.7 shall survive termination of this Agreement.

11.8. Governing Law. This Agreement and the Notes shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Oklahoma.

11.9. Severability of Provisions. Any provision of any Loan Document which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions of such Loan Document or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.

11.10. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties to this Agreement in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same Agreement. Borrower agrees that telefaxed or scanned Loan Documents evidencing execution shall be deemed originals.

11.11. Headings. Section headings in the Loan Documents are included in such Loan Documents for the convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a part of the applicable Loan Documents for any other purpose.

11.12. Jury Trial Waiver. THE BORROWER, EACH BANK AND EACH AGENT HEREBY WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING, CLAIM OR COUNTERCLAIM, WHETHER IN CONTRACT OR TORT, AT LAW OR IN EQUITY, ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE LOAN DOCUMENTS. NO OFFICER OF ANY BANK OR AGENT HAS AUTHORITY TO WAIVE, CONDITION, OR MODIFY THIS PROVISION.

11.13. No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility. In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated hereby (including in connection with any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document), the Borrower acknowledges and agrees that: (i) (A) the arranging and other services regarding this Agreement provided by the Banks are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Borrower and its Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Banks, on the other hand, (B) the Borrower has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it has deemed appropriate, and (C) the Borrower is capable of evaluating, and understands and accepts, the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents; (ii) (A) each of the Banks is and has been acting solely as a principal and, except as expressly agreed in writing by the relevant parties, has not been, is not, and will not be acting as an advisor, agent or fiduciary for the Borrower or any of its Affiliates, or any other Person, and (B) no Bank has any obligation to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents; and (iii) each of the Banks and their respective Affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Borrower and its Affiliates, and no Bank has any obligation to disclose any of such interests to the Borrower or its Affiliates. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Borrower hereby waives and releases any claims that it may have against any of the Banks with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty in connection with any aspect of any transaction contemplated hereby.

11.14. Release. The Borrower, for itself and each and all of its officers, employees, agents, shareholders, directors, successors and assigns, does hereby fully, unconditionally and irrevocably waive and release each Agent and each Bank, and each of their respective officers, employees, agents, directors, shareholders, affiliates, attorneys, successors and assigns (each, a “Released Party”), of and from any and all claims, liabilities, obligations, causes of action, defenses, counterclaims and setoffs, of any kind, whether known or unknown and whether in contract, tort, statute or under any other legal theory, arising out of or relating to any act or omission by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Bank or any other Released Party on or before the Effective Date.

11.15. USA Patriot Act Notification. IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT PROCEDURES FOR OPENING A NEW ACCOUNT. To help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, Federal law requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each person or entity that opens an account, including any deposit account, treasury management account, loan, other extension of credit, or other financial services product. What this means for Borrower: When Borrower opens an account, if Borrower is an individual, Bank will ask for Borrower’s name, taxpayer identification number, residential address, date of birth, and other information that will allow Bank to identify Borrower, and, if Borrower is not an individual, Bank will ask for Borrower’s name, taxpayer identification number, business address, and other information that will allow Bank to identify Borrower. Bank may also ask, if Borrower is an individual, to see Borrower’s driver’s license or other identifying documents, and, if Borrower is not an individual, to see Borrower’s legal organizational documents or other identifying documents.
