(A) the Aggregate Revolving Credit Commitment then in effect; and

(B) (i) 80% of Eligible Receivables plus (ii) 50% of Eligible Inventory (such amount referred to herein as the “Borrowing

Base”).

During such period and subject to Section 3.2(B), the Revolving Credit Facility may be utilized by borrowing, repaying and reborrowing the Loans thereunder.

2.2 Evidence of Debt. The Revolving Credit Facility and the Loans made by each Lender to Borrowers thereunder shall be evidenced by a Revolving Credit Note payable to the order of such Lender, which note shall be in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B.

2.3 Loan Accounts; Commitment Increase Option; Amount and Maintenance of Loans; Interest Rate Not Determined.

(A) Loan Account. Agent, on behalf of Lenders, shall record on its books and records the amount of each Loan made, the interest rate applicable, all payments of principal and interest thereon and the principal balance thereof from time to time outstanding, and such record shall, absent demonstrable error be conclusive evidence of the amount of the Loans made by Lenders to Borrowers and the interest and payments thereon. Any failure to record or any error in doing so shall, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of Borrowers hereunder (and under any Note) to pay any amount owing with respect to the Loans.

(B) Commitment Increase Option. Provided that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Borrowers may elect to increase the Aggregate Revolving Credit Commitment to $60,000,000, but not less than $60,000,000, by delivery to Agent at least ten (10) Business Days’ prior to the effectiveness thereof, of irrevocable written notice of such election, which notice must be in form and substance acceptable to Agent (a “Commitment Increase Option”). After the exercise of such Commitment Increase Option, the Aggregate Revolving Credit Commitment shall remain at $60,000,000 until the Revolving Credit Termination Date.

(C) Amount and Maintenance of Loans. The Loans may be made and maintained as (i) Prime Rate Loans, (ii) LIBOR Loans, or (iii) a combination of Prime Rate Loans and LIBOR Loans. The aggregate principal amount of each LIBOR Loan, whether new, converted or continued, shall not be less than $500,000. More than one borrowing may occur on the same date, but at no time shall there be outstanding more than five LIBOR Loans in the aggregate. The amount of any Loan is also subject to the limits contained in Section 2.1. No Loan shall be made at any time a Default or Event of Default shall exist.

(D) Inability to Determine Interest Rate. In the event, and on each occasion, that on the day two Business Days prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a LIBOR Loan, Agent shall have determined in good faith (which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon Borrowers) that currency deposits in the amount of such LIBOR Loan are not generally available in the London Interbank market, or that the rate at which such currency deposits are being offered will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to Agent of maintaining the principal amount of such LIBOR Loan during such Interest Period, Agent shall promptly, after such determination shall have been made, give facsimile notice of such determination to Borrowers and Lenders, and, until Agent shall notify Borrowers and Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, any request by Borrowers for the making of, conversion to or continuation of a LIBOR Loan shall be deemed to be a request for a Prime Rate Loan. Agent shall use its reasonable efforts to notify Borrowers of a change in the circumstances causing the LIBOR Loan to be unavailable but shall not incur any liability for any failure so to notify Borrowers.

2.4 Interest Rate. Unless otherwise provided in a writing evidencing such Liabilities, Borrowers agree, jointly and severally, to pay Agent, for the benefit of each Lender, interest on the outstanding principal balance of the Loans from time to time at a rate equal to (i) with respect to Prime Rate Loans, the Prime Rate and (ii) with respect to LIBOR Loans, the LIBOR Rate plus the Applicable Margin. The records of Agent as to the interest rate applicable to a particular advance shall be binding and conclusive absent manifest error. Interest shall be payable from the date of such advance of the Loan to the day of repayment of such advance. Interest shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and actual days elapsed and shall be payable as provided in Section 3.2. Agent, for the ratable benefit of each Lender, reserves the right to charge Borrowers’ checking account(s) for accrued interest on the applicable Interest Payment Date. In no contingency or event whatsoever shall the rate or amount of interest paid by Borrowers under this Agreement or any of the Ancillary Agreements exceed the maximum amount permissible under any law which a court of competent jurisdiction shall, in a final determination, deem applicable. In the event that such a court determines that Agent or any Lender has received interest under this Agreement or under any Ancillary Agreement in excess of the maximum amount permitted by such law, (i) Agent or such Lender shall apply such excess to any unpaid principal owed by Borrowers to such Lender under the Revolving Credit Facility or, if the amount of such excess exceeds the unpaid balance of such principal on the Revolving Credit Facility, such Lender shall promptly refund such excess interest to Borrowers and (ii) the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed amended to provide for such permissible rate. All sums paid, or agreed to be paid, by Borrowers which are, or to be may be construed to be, compensation for the use, forbearance or detention of money shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, spread and allocated throughout the term of all such indebtedness until the indebtedness is paid in full.

2.5 Borrowing Procedures. In order to effect a Loan under the Revolving Credit Facility, an authorized officer of each of the Borrowers shall give Agent irrevocable written notice (in form and substance acceptable to Agent) or irrevocable telephone notice (immediately confirmed by such written notice by facsimile) not later than 11:00 a.m., Chicago time, on (i) the proposed borrowing date in the case of Prime Rate Loans and (ii) the second

Business Day prior to the proposed borrowing date in the case of LIBOR Loans (the “Notice of Borrowing”). Borrowers hereby authorize Agent and each Lender to extend advances and make Loans to Borrowers based on written or telephone notice from an authorized officer of Borrowers. Each Notice of Borrowing shall specify the principal amount of the Loan to be made pursuant to such borrowing and the date of such borrowing (which shall be a Business Day), that the Loans are under the Revolving Credit Facility, whether the Loans being made pursuant to such borrowing are to be maintained as Prime Rate Loans or LIBOR Loans and, if LIBOR Loans, the initial Interest Period to be applicable thereto. Promptly after receipt of such request, Agent shall advise each Lender thereof. Not later than 2:30 p.m., Chicago time, on the date of a proposed borrowing, each Lender shall provide Agent, at the principal office of Agent in Chicago, with immediately available funds equal to such Lender’s pro rata share of the borrowing, and subject to receipt by Agent of the documents required under Section 2.11(B) with respect to such borrowing, if any are required, Agent shall pay over such funds received by it to Borrowers on the requested borrowing date.

2.6 General Provisions.

(A) One Loan. All Loans and advances by each Lender to Borrowers under this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements shall constitute one loan and all indebtedness and obligations of Borrowers to all of the Lenders under this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements shall constitute one general obligation secured by the Collateral. The parties hereto acknowledge that this Agreement constitutes a replacement of the Existing Loan Agreement, and all references to the Existing Loan Agreement shall be deemed a reference to this Agreement.

(A) Conversion Requirements. Provided that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Borrowers may elect from time to time to convert a Prime Rate Loan, or any portion thereof, to a LIBOR Loan by Borrowers giving Agent at least two Business Days’ prior irrevocable written notice of conversion, which notice must be in form and substance acceptable to Agent and received by Agent prior to 11:00 a.m. (Chicago time) (the “Notice of Conversion”). If the date on which a Prime Rate Loan is to be converted to a LIBOR Loan is not a Business Day, then such conversion shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and during the period from such date to such succeeding Business Day, such Prime Rate Loan shall bear interest as if it were a Prime Rate Loan. All or any part of outstanding borrowings may be converted as provided herein. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Borrowers may convert a LIBOR Loan into a Prime Rate Loan by Borrowers giving Agent a Notice of Conversion not later than 11:00 a.m. (Chicago time) on the desired conversion date. Promptly upon receipt of each Notice of Conversion, Agent shall advise each Lender thereof.

(B) Continuance. Any LIBOR Loan may be continued as such, in whole or in part, upon the expiration of an Interest Period with respect thereto if Borrowers gives Agent irrevocable written notice of continuance which notice must be in form and substance acceptable to Agent and received by Agent prior to 11:00 a.m. (Chicago time), at least two Business Days prior to the date of expiration of the Interest Period expiring with respect to the LIBOR Loan which is requested to be continued, specifying (i) the LIBOR Loan, or portion thereof, requested to be continued; (ii) the date of expiration of the Interest Period expiring with respect to the LIBOR Loan, or portion thereof, which is requested to be continued; and (iii) the length of the Interest Period with respect to such LIBOR Loan, or portion thereof, after the continuation thereof (the “Notice of Continuance”); provided that no LIBOR Loans may be continued as such when any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, but shall be automatically converted to a Prime Rate Loan on the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan. If Borrowers do not comply with the notice provisions of this clause (B), such LIBOR Loan shall be automatically converted to a Prime Rate Loan upon the expiration of the Interest Period with respect thereto. Promptly upon receipt of each Notice of Continuance, Agent shall advise each Lender thereof.

(C) Restatement of Representations and Warranties. Any Notice of Conversion or Notice of Continuance delivered pursuant to this Section 2.7 shall be deemed to be a representation that all of the representations and warranties of Borrowers contained in this Agreement shall then be true and correct as if made on such date, except to the extent that such representations and warranties expressly relate to an earlier date, and that no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.

2.8 Requirements of Law.

(A) Increased Costs. Notwithstanding any other provisions herein, in the event that the introduction of or any change in any law, rule, regulation, treaty or directive or in the interpretation or application thereof, or compliance by any Lender with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any central bank or other governmental authority, agency or instrumentality or regulatory body:

(i) subjects such Lender to any tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement, the Notes, the Ancillary Agreement or the Loans made hereunder, or changes the basis of taxation of payments to such Lender of principal, interest or any other amount payable hereunder (except for changes in the rate of tax imposed on the overall net income of such Lender by the United States, any state or subdivision thereof);

(ii) imposes, modifies, holds applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan or similar requirement against assets held by, or deposits or

other liabilities in or for the account of, advances or loans by, or other credit extended by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of such Lender (which is not otherwise included in the determination of the LIBOR Rate hereunder); or

(iii) imposes on any Lender or the London interbank market any other condition affecting this Agreement or the LIBOR Loans made by such Lender;

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender of agreeing to make, making, continuing or maintaining or participating in LIBOR Loans, or to reduce any amount receivable thereunder or to increase the withholding taxes payable then, in any such case, Borrowers agree, jointly and severally, to pay such Lender, within fifteen (15) days after demand by such Lender, any additional amounts necessary to compensate such Lender on an after-tax basis for such additional cost or reduced amount receivable or increased withholding taxes payable which such Lender deems to be material as determined by such Lender with respect to this Agreement, the Notes, the other Ancillary Agreements or the Loans made hereunder.

(B) Capital Adequacy. In the event that any Lender shall have determined that the adoption of any law, rule, regulation, treaty or guideline regarding capital adequacy, or any change in any of the foregoing or in the interpretation or application of any of the foregoing or compliance by such Lender with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) from any central bank or other governmental authority, agency or instrumentality or regulatory body, does or shall have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or its parent’s capital as a consequence of its obligations under this Agreement to a level below that which such Lender or such parent could have achieved but for such adoption, change, or compliance (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such parent’s policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by such Lender to be material, then from time to time, after submission by such Lender to Borrowers of a written request therefor, Borrowers agree, jointly and severally, to pay to such Lender, within fifteen (15) days after its demand, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such parent on an after-tax basis for such reduction; provided that such Lender is charging such amounts to similarly situated borrowers.

(C) Certificate for Claim. If any Lender or its parent becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.8, it shall promptly notify Borrowers, Agent and the other Lenders of the event by reason of which it has become so entitled. A certificate setting forth in reasonable detail any additional amounts payable pursuant to the foregoing sentence submitted by such Lender or its parent shall be conclusive and binding on Borrowers in the absence of manifest error. The provisions of this Section 2.8 shall survive the repayment of the Loans and the termination of this Agreement.

(D) No Waiver. Failure on the part of any Lender or its parent to demand compensation for any increased costs or reduction in amounts received or receivable or

reduction in return on capital with respect to any period shall not constitute a waiver of such party’s right to demand compensation with respect to such period or any other period. The protection of this Section 2.8 shall be available to such party regardless of any possible contention of the invalidity or inapplicability of the law, rule, regulation, guideline or other change or condition which shall have occurred or been imposed; provided that if such party shall have recouped any amount therefore paid to it by Borrowers under this Section 2.8, such Lender shall pay to Borrowers an amount equal to the net recoupment so received by such party, as determined in good faith by such party.

(E) Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender determines in accordance with Section 2.9 that, due to illegality, it is unable to make or maintain a LIBOR Loan or requests compensation under this Section 2.8, or if any Lender becomes a Non-Funding Lender, then Borrowers may, at their sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 10.2), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if such Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (i) the Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of Agent, (ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans (and unpaid Reimbursement Obligations), accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or Borrowers (in the case of all other amounts) and (iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under this Section 2.8 such assignment will result in a reduction of such compensation.

2.9 Illegality. Any Lender may make or maintain LIBOR Loans at or for the credit of any branch, subsidiary or affiliate office inside or outside the United States or any international banking facility within the United States, as such Lender may elect from time to time. Notwithstanding any other provisions herein, if any law, rule, regulation, treaty or directive or any change therein or in the interpretation or application thereof, shall make it unlawful for such Lender to maintain LIBOR Loans as contemplated by this Agreement, the agreement of such Lender to make or maintain LIBOR Loans shall terminate and all outstanding LIBOR Loans shall be converted automatically to Prime Rate Loans, on the last day of the then current Interest Period or within such earlier period as required by law.

2.10 Indemnity. Borrowers agree, jointly and severally, to indemnify any Lender and to hold such Lender harmless from any cost, loss or expense which such Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of (i) Borrowers making a payment or prepayment of principal or interest on any LIBOR Loan (including, without limitation, through a conversion to the same or a different type of Loan or pursuant to Sections 2.3(C) and 2.9 above) on a day which is not the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto, (ii) any failure by Borrowers to borrow or convert any Loan hereunder after a Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion has been given (in the case of LIBOR Loans), (iii) default by Borrowers in making any prepayment after Borrowers have given a notice of prepayment and (iv) any acceleration of the maturity of the

Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, including, but not limited to, any such reasonable cost, loss or expense arising in liquidating the Loans and from interest or fees payable by such Lender to lenders of funds obtained by it in order to maintain the Loans hereunder. The provisions of this Section 2.10 shall survive the repayment of the Loans and the termination of this Agreement.

The non-use fee shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in a year of 360 days.

2.13 Letters of Credit.

(A) Issuance of Non-Cash Collateralized Letters of Credit. From and after the date hereof, upon the execution by Borrowers and the Issuing Lender of a Master Letter of Credit Agreement in form and substance acceptable to the Issuing Lender, the Issuing Lender agrees, upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, to issue at the request and for the account of Borrowers or any designee of Borrowers, one or more Letters of Credit; provided that the Issuing Lender shall not be under any obligation to issue, and shall not issue, any Letter of Credit if (a) any order, judgment or decree of any governmental authority with jurisdiction over the Issuing Lender shall purport by its terms to enjoin or restrain such Issuing Lender from issuing such Letter of Credit, or any law or governmental rule, regulation, policy, guideline or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any governmental authority with jurisdiction over the Issuing Lender shall prohibit, or request that the Issuing Lender refrain from, the issuance of Letters of Credit in particular or shall impose upon the Issuing Lender with respect to any Letter of Credit any restriction or reserve or capital requirement (for which the Issuing Lender is not otherwise compensated) or any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable, in effect and known to the Issuing Lender as of the date of this Agreement and which the Issuing Lender in good faith deems material to it (the Issuing Lender shall promptly notify Borrowers of any event which, in the judgment of the Issuing Lender, would preclude the issuance of a Letter of Credit pursuant to this clause);

(b) one or more of the conditions to such issuance contained in Section 2.11 is not then satisfied; or (c) after giving effect to such issuance, the aggregate outstanding amount of the Letter of Credit Obligations would exceed the Aggregate Revolving Credit Commitment. Except with respect to a Cash Collateralized Letter of Credit, in no event shall: (a) the aggregate amount of the Letter of Credit Obligations at any time exceed the Aggregate Revolving Credit Commitment; (b) the sum at any time of (1) the aggregate amount of Letter of Credit Obligations and (2) the aggregate principal balance of all outstanding Loans issued pursuant to the Revolving Credit Facility exceed the then current Availability; (c) the expiration date of any Letter of Credit (including, without limitation, Letters of Credit issued with an automatic “evergreen” provision providing for renewal absent advance notice by Borrowers or the Issuing Lender), or the date for payment of any draft presented thereunder and accepted by the Issuing Lender, be later than the Letter of Credit Expiry Date; and (d) the sum at any time of the aggregate amount of Letter of Credit Obligations exceed $20,000,000.00.

(B) Issuance of Cash Collateralized Letters of Credit.

(i) Pre-Termination Cash Collateralized Letters of Credit. In the event Borrowers request the issuance of any Letter(s) of Credit with that would, if issued, result in the sum of (1) the aggregate amount of Letter of Credit Obligations and (2) the aggregate principal amount of Loans outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility to exceed the then current Availability, Borrowers may request that the Issuing Lender issue a Cash Collateralized Letter of Credit provided that Borrowers, jointly and severally, deposit cash in an amount equal to such excess in the Cash Collateral Account at least five (5) Business Days prior to the issuance of any such Cash Collateralized Letter of Credit. To the extent that one or more Cash Collateralized Letter(s) of Credit expire (and are not drawn upon) and are not extended or are otherwise terminated without any continuing liability to Agent, the Issuing Lender or Lenders, which results in the sum of (i) the aggregate principal amount of Loans outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility plus (ii) the aggregate amount of Letter of Credit Obligations being equal to or less than the Availability as of such date, Agent shall refund the cash held in the Cash Collateral Account with respect to such Cash Collateralized Letter of Credit to the Borrowers within five (5) Business Days less any Letter of Credit Fees applicable thereto. In addition, following any such deposit of cash in the Cash Collateral Account, at any time and from time to time that the sum of (i) the aggregate principal amount of Loans outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility plus (ii) the aggregate principal amount of Letter of Credit Obligations becomes equal to or less than the sum of (x) the Availability plus (y) the amount of cash held in the Cash Collateral Account as of such date, Agent shall refund to the Borrowers within (5) Business Days a sum of cash held in the Cash Collateral Account equal to such excess less any Letter of Credit Fees applicable thereto. Any deposit made to the Cash Collateral Account pursuant to this Section 2.13(B)(i) shall be used exclusively to facilitate the issuance of Cash Collateralized Letters of Credit requested hereunder and shall not affect the Availability or Borrowing Base.

(ii) Post-Termination Letters of Credit. In the event any Letter of Credit issued under Section 2.13(A) or 2.13(B)(i) exists on, and has an expiration date that is later than the Revolving Credit Termination Date (each a “Post-Termination Letter of Credit”), at least five (5) Business Days prior to the Revolving Credit Termination Date, Borrowers, jointly and severally, shall deposit in the Cash Collateral Account available funds free and clear of all Liens in an amount equal to the face amount of such Post-Termination Letter of Credit. In no event may a Post-Termination Letter of Credit be renewed or include an automatic “evergreen” provision providing for renewal. Upon the expiration of any such Post-Termination Letter of Credit, Agent shall refund to the Borrowers within five (5) Business Days after such expiration any undrawn funds deposited pursuant to this Section 2.13(B)(ii) associated with such Post-Termination Letter of Credit less any Letter of Credit Fees applicable thereto. Any deposit made to the Cash Collateral Account pursuant to this Section 2.13(B)(ii) shall not affect the Availability or Borrowing Base.

(C) Participating Interests. Immediately upon the issuance by the Issuing Lender of a Letter of Credit in accordance with Section 2.13(A) or Section 2.13(B), each Lender shall be deemed to have irrevocably and unconditionally purchased and received from the Issuing Lender, without recourse, representation or warranty, an undivided participation interest equal to its Percentage of the face amount of such Letter of Credit and each draw paid by the Issuing Lender thereunder, including, without limitation any Cash Collateralized Letter of Credit or Post Termination Letter of Credit. Each Lender’s obligation to pay its proportionate share of all draws under the Letters of Credit (including, without limitation, any Cash Collateralized Letter of Credit or Post Termination Letter of Credit), absent gross negligence or willful misconduct by the Issuing Lender in honoring any such draw, shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable and in each case shall be made without counterclaim or set-off by such Lender.

(D) Letter of Credit Reimbursement Obligations.

(i) (a) Borrowers, jointly and severally, agree to pay to the Issuing Lender (1) on each date that any amount is drawn under each Letter of Credit a sum (and interest on such sum as provided in clause (2) below) equal to the amount so drawn plus all other charges and expenses with respect thereto or in the applicable Master Letter of Credit Agreement and (2) interest on any and all amounts remaining unpaid under this Section 2.13 until payment in full at the Prime Rate plus 2.00% per annum. Borrowers agree to pay to the Issuing Lender the amount of all Reimbursement Obligations owing in respect of any Letter of Credit immediately when due, under all circumstances, including, without limitation, any of the following circumstances: (w) any lack of validity or enforceability of this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreements executed pursuant

hereto; (x) the existence of any claim, set-off, defense or other right which Borrowers may have at any time against a beneficiary named in a Letter of Credit, any transferee of any Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such transferee may be acting), any Lender or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, any Letter of Credit, the transactions contemplated herein or any unrelated transactions (including any underlying transaction between the Borrowers and the beneficiary named in any Letter of Credit); (y) the validity, sufficiency or genuineness of any document which the Issuing Lender has determined in good faith complies on its face with the terms of the applicable Letter of Credit, even if such document should later prove to have been forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein shall have been untrue or inaccurate in any respect; or (z) the surrender or material impairment of any security for the performance or observance of any of the terms hereof.

(ii) Notwithstanding any provisions to the contrary in any Master Letter of Credit Agreement, Borrowers agree, jointly and severally, to reimburse the Issuing Lender for amounts which the Issuing Lender pays under such Letter of Credit no later than the time specified in this Agreement. If Borrowers do not pay any such Reimbursement Obligations when due, Borrowers shall be deemed to have immediately requested that Lenders make a Prime Rate Loan under this Agreement in a principal amount equal to such unreimbursed Reimbursement Obligations. Agent shall promptly notify Lenders of such deemed request and, without the necessity of compliance with the requirements of Sections 2.1 and 2.11, each Lender shall make available to Agent its Loan in the manner prescribed for Prime Rate Loans. The proceeds of such Loans shall be paid over by Agent to the Issuing Lender for the account of Borrowers in satisfaction of such unreimbursed Reimbursement Obligations, which shall thereupon be deemed satisfied by the proceeds of, and replaced by, such Prime Rate Loan.

(iii) If the Issuing Lender makes a payment on account of any Letter of Credit and is not concurrently reimbursed therefore by Borrowers and if for any reason a Prime Rate Loan may not be made pursuant to Section 2.13(D)(ii), then as promptly as practical during normal banking hours on the date of its receipt of such notice or, if not practicable on such date, not later than noon (Chicago time) on the Business Day immediately succeeding such date of notification, each Lender shall deliver to Agent for the account of the Issuing Lender, in immediately available funds, the purchase price for such Lender’s interest in such unreimbursed Reimbursement Obligations, which shall be an amount equal to such Lender’s pro-rata share of such payment. Each Lender shall, upon demand by the Issuing Lender, pay the Issuing Lender interest on such Lender’s pro-rata share of such draw from the date of payment by the Issuing Lender on account of such Letter of Credit until the date of delivery of such funds to the Issuing Lender by such Lender at a rate per annum, computed for actual days elapsed based on a 360-day year, equal to the federal funds rate for such period; provided that such payments shall be made by such Lender only in the event and to the extent that the Issuing Lender is not reimbursed in full by Borrowers for interest on the amount of any draw on the Letters of Credit.

(iv) At any time after the Issuing Lender has made a payment on account of any Letter of Credit and has received from any other Lender such Lender’s pro-rata share of such payment, the Issuing Lender shall, forthwith upon its receipt of any reimbursement (in whole or in part) by Borrowers for such payment, or of any other amount from Borrowers or any other Person in respect of such payment (including, without limitation, any payment of interest or penalty fees and any payment under any collateral account agreement of the Borrowers or any Ancillary Agreements executed pursuant hereto but excluding any transfer of funds from any other Lender pursuant to Section 2.13(D)(ii)), transfer to such other Lender such other Lender’s ratable share of such reimbursement or other amount; provided that interest shall accrue for the benefit of such Lender from the time the Issuing Lender has made a payment on account of any Letter of Credit; provided further that, in the event that the receipt by the Issuing Lender of such reimbursement or other amount is found to have been a transfer in fraud of creditors or a preferential payment under the Bankruptcy Code or is otherwise required to be returned, such Lender shall promptly return to the Issuing Lender any portion thereof previously transferred by the Issuing Lender to such Lender, but without interest to the extent that interest is not payable by the Issuing Lender in connection therewith.

(E) Procedure for Issuance. Prior to the issuance of each Letter of Credit, and as a condition of such issuance, including, without limitation any Cash Collateralized Letter of Credit or Post-Termination Letter of Credit, Borrowers shall deliver to the Issuing Lender (with a copy to Agent) a Master Letter of Credit Agreement signed by the Borrowers, together with such other documents or items as may be required pursuant to the terms thereof, and the proposed form and content of such Letter of Credit shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Issuing Lender. Except as provided in Section 2.13(B), each Letter of Credit shall be issued no earlier than two (2) Business Days after delivery of the foregoing documents, which delivery may be by Borrowers to the Issuing Lender by facsimile transmission, telex or other electronic means followed by delivery of executed originals within five days thereafter. The documents so delivered shall be in compliance with the requirements set forth in Section 2.13(A) or Section 2.13(B), as the case may be, and shall specify therein (i) the stated amount of the Letter of Credit requested, (ii) the effective date of issuance of such requested Letter of Credit, which shall be a Business Day, (iii) the date on which such requested Letter of Credit is to expire, (iv) the entity for whose benefit the requested Letter of Credit is to be issued, which shall be a Borrower, (v) the aggregate amount of Letter of Credit Obligations which are outstanding and which will be outstanding after giving effect to the requested Letter of Credit issuance and (vi) that the requested Letter of Credit is to be a Cash Collateralized Letter of Credit, if applicable. The delivery of the foregoing documents and information shall constitute an “Issuance Request” for purposes of this Agreement. Subject to the terms and conditions of Section 2.13(A) or Section 2.13(B), as the case may be, and provided that the applicable conditions set forth

in Section 2.11 hereof have been satisfied, the Issuing Lender shall, on the requested date, issue a Letter of Credit on behalf of Borrowers in accordance with the Issuing Lender’s usual and customary business practices. In addition, any amendment of an existing Letter of Credit shall be deemed to be an issuance of a new Letter of Credit and shall be subject to the requirements set forth above. The Issuing Lender shall give Agent prompt written notice of the issuance of any Letter of Credit.

(F) Nature of Lenders’ Obligations.

(i) As between Borrowers and Lenders, Borrowers assume all risks of the acts and omissions of, or misuse of the Letters of Credit by, the respective beneficiaries of the Letters of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, Lenders shall not be responsible for (a) the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any document submitted by any party in connection with the application for an issuance of a Letter of Credit, even if it should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged; (b) the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign a Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason; (c) the failure of the beneficiary of a Letter of Credit to comply fully with conditions required to be satisfied by any Person other than the Issuing Lender in order to draw upon such Letter of Credit (other than a failure to satisfy documentary conditions to drawing where payment of the Letter of Credit despite such failure would constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Issuing Lender); (d) errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, cable, telegraph, facsimile transmission, telex or otherwise; (e) the misapplication by the beneficiary of a Letter of Credit of the proceeds of any drawing under such Letter of Credit; or (f) any consequences arising from causes beyond control of the Issuing Lender.

(ii) In furtherance and extension and not in limitation of the specific provisions hereinabove set forth (including in Section 2.13(D)), any action taken or omitted by the Issuing Lender under or in connection with the Letters of Credit or any related certificates, if taken or omitted in good faith, shall not put Agent or any Lender under any resulting liability to Borrowers or relieve Borrowers of any of its obligations hereunder to the Issuing Lender or any such Person.

(G) Compensation for Letters of Credit. Borrowers shall pay to Agent (for the benefit of the Issuing Lender and the other Lenders) on the first Business Day of each calendar quarter, in arrears, any processing, issuance, amendment or other similar fees customarily charged in connection with Letters of Credit, together with the Issuing Lender’s out-of-pocket costs of issuing and servicing letters of credit plus an amount equal to the product of (i) the face amount of each Letter of Credit issued and (ii) the Applicable Margin (the “Letter of Credit Fees”). All Letter of Credit Fees shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in a year of 360 days.

3.	PAYMENTS.

3.1

Making of Payments.

(A) All payments and prepayments of principal, or interest on, the Notes shall be made by Borrowers to Agent in immediately available funds for the account of the holders of the Notes pro rata according to the respective unpaid amounts of principal or interest, as the case may be, owed to such holders. Payment of the Loan Fee and all payments of non-use fees shall be made by Borrowers to Agent for the account of Lenders pro-rata according to their respective Percentages. All such payments shall be made to Agent at its office in Chicago, not later than 12:30 p.m. Chicago time, on the date due, and funds received after that hour shall be deemed to have been received by Agent on the next succeeding Business Day. Agent shall, on the Business Day a payment is deemed to be received in collected funds by it, remit to each Lender or other holder of a Note its share of such payment.

(B) Unless Borrowers or a Lender, as the case may be, notify Agent prior to the date on which it is scheduled to make payment to Agent of (i) in the case of a Lender, the proceeds of a Loan under the Revolving Credit Facility or (ii) in the case of Borrowers, a payment of principal, interest or fees to Agent for the account of Lenders, that it does not intend to make such payment, Agent may assume that such payment has been made. Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, make the amount of such payment available to the intended recipient in reliance upon such assumption. If Borrowers have not in fact made such payment to Agent, Lenders shall, on demand by Agent, repay to Agent the amount so made available together with interest thereon in respect of each day during the period commencing on the date such amount was so made available by Agent until the date Agent recovers such amount at a rate per annum equal to the federal funds rate for such day. If any Lender has not in fact made such payment to Agent (such a Lender herein called a “Non-Funding Lender”), such Non-Funding Lender or Borrowers shall, on demand by Agent, repay to Agent the amount so made available together with interest thereon in respect of each day during the period commencing on the date such amount was so made available by Agent until the date Agent recovers such amount at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of payment by a Non-Funding Lender, an amount equal to $200 plus the federal funds effective rate for such day or (ii) in the case of payment by Borrowers, the interest rate applicable to the relevant Loan (it being understood and agreed that prior to making a request pursuant to this clause (ii) Agent will use its best efforts to request that Lenders (other than a Non-Funding Lender) reallocate such amount among Lenders (other than a Non-Funding Lender) subject to Section 2.1.

3.2

Payment Terms.

(A) General. All of the Liabilities shall be paid to Agent at the address set forth in Section 10.10. Subject to the remainder of this Section 3.2 and Section 8.2, the Liabilities will be payable as follows:

(i) accrued interest shall be payable in arrears on the applicable Interest Payment Date;

(ii) fees, costs, expenses and similar charges shall be payable as and when provided for in this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements; and

(iii) the then outstanding principal balance of the Revolving Credit Facility shall be payable in full on the Revolving Credit Termination Date.

Except as otherwise set forth herein (including, but not limited to Section 2.10 hereof), Borrowers may prepay all or any portion of the Loans upon notice from Borrowers to Agent at least one (1) day before the date of prepayment, without penalty or premium, at any time and from time to time; provided that all prepayments of principal shall include interest accrued to the date of prepayment on the principal amount being prepaid. After maturity (whether upon acceleration or otherwise) of any Liabilities, accrued interest on such Liabilities shall be payable upon demand.

Borrowers shall have the right to terminate this Agreement provided that the Liabilities have been repaid in full, by prepayment in accordance with this Section 3.2(A) or otherwise, provided that Borrowers shall deliver to Agent written notice of such termination at least three (3) Business Days before such termination shall take effect.

(B) Mandatory Prepayment. Borrowers shall not permit the sum of (i) the aggregate amount of Letter of Credit Obligations plus (ii) the aggregate principal amount of Loans outstanding at any time to exceed the then current Availability. Borrowers agree, jointly and severally, to make such payments to Agent on the Loans which are necessary to cure any such excess within two (2) Business Days after the occurrence thereof. To the extent that any payment made under the previous sentence is insufficient to cause the Letter of Credit Obligations to be equal to or less then the Availability, Borrowers agree, jointly and severally, to immediately deposit with Agent an amount of cash equal to the entire Letter of Credit Obligation with respect to one or more Letters of Credit which are causing the deficiency (which, for this purpose, shall be deemed to be Cash Collateralized Letters of Credit) in the Cash Collateral Account. To the extent that one or more Cash Collateralized Letter(s) of Credit expire (and are not drawn upon) and are not extended or are otherwise terminated without any liability to Agent, the Issuing Lender or Lenders, which results in the sum of (i) the aggregate principal amount of Loans outstanding plus (ii) the aggregate amount of Letter of Credit Obligations being equal to or less than the Availability as of such date, Agent shall refund the cash held in the Cash Collateral Account with respect to such Cash Collateralized Letter of Credit to the Borrowers within five (5) Business Days less any

Letter of Credit Fees applicable thereto. In addition, following any such deposit of cash in the Cash Collateral Account, at any time and from time to time that the sum of (i) the aggregate principal amount of Loans outstanding plus (ii) the aggregate principal amount of Letter of Credit Obligations becomes equal to or less than the sum of (x) the Availability plus (y) the amount of cash held in the Cash Collateral Account as of such date, Agent shall refund to the Borrowers within (5) Business Days a sum of cash held in the Cash Collateral Account equal to such excess less any Letter of Credit Fees applicable thereto. No Lender shall be under an obligation to make Loans or to issue any Letter of Credit during the period that any such excess described in the first sentence of this Section 3.2(B) exists or would result from the making of an additional Loan under the Revolving Credit Facility or issuing an additional Letter of Credit.

3.3

Lockbox; Collection of Accounts and Payments.

(A) Lockbox. Borrowers shall maintain a special account as a lockbox in Borrowers’ names with Agent, upon such terms as are required by Agent, to which Borrowers and their domestic Subsidiaries will cause all Account Debtors to send all remittances on Accounts and all customers party to Buy Back Agreements to send all remittances related to any purchases by such customers pursuant to such Buy Back Agreements. If received directly by a Borrower or a domestic Subsidiary, such Borrower or domestic Subsidiary will immediately deposit in such special account all remittances and proceeds of the Collateral in the identical form in which such payment was made, whether by cash or check. Borrowers agree that upon the occurrence and during the continuation of a Default or an Event of Default, all payments made to such special account or otherwise received by Agent, whether on the Accounts, on any Buy Back Agreement or as proceeds of any other Collateral or otherwise, will be the sole and exclusive property of Agent for the benefit of Agent and Lenders and will be applied on account of the Liabilities. So long as no Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrowers shall be entitled to direct the use of the funds maintained in such special account in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Two (2) Business Days after Agent’s receipt of good funds, Agent will credit (conditional upon final collection) all payments received through the special account to the Liabilities. Each Borrower, its Subsidiaries and any Affiliates, shareholders, directors, officers, employees, agents of such Borrower and its Subsidiaries and all Persons acting for or in concert with such Borrower shall, acting as trustee for Agent, receive, as the sole and exclusive property of Agent for the benefit of Agent and Lenders, any monies, checks, notes, drafts or any other payments relating to or proceeds of Accounts, Buy Back Agreements or other Collateral which come into their possession or under their control and immediately upon receipt, shall remit the same or cause the same to be remitted, in kind, to Agent, at Agent’s address set forth in Section 10.10. Borrowers agree, jointly and severally, to pay to Agent any and all reasonable fees, costs and expenses (if any) which Agent incurs in connection with opening and maintaining the special account and depositing for collection by Agent any check or item of payment received or delivered to Agent on account of the Liabilities.

(B)

Limitation of Liability.

(i) Agent shall have no liability to Borrowers other than that imposed upon it by law for its failure to exercise ordinary care with respect to the lockbox established hereunder. Establishment of and substantial compliance with the procedures set forth herein or in other documents related to the lockbox by Agent shall be deemed to constitute the exercise of ordinary care. A mere inadvertence or honest mistake of judgment will not constitute a failure to exercise ordinary care, and in no case will be deemed wrongful. Agent shall not be liable for consequential, indirect or special damages, even if it has been advised of the possibility that they exist. Agent shall have no liability for mail not bearing a complete and proper address.

(ii) Agent shall not be liable for failure to perform any services under this Agreement within the time provided therefore in the event and to the extent that such failure arises out of war, terrorism, civil commotion, an act of God, accident, interruption of power supplies or other utility or service, strikes or lockouts, delay in transportation, legislative action, government regulations or interferences, or any other event beyond Agent’s control.

(iii) In the event Agent becomes involved in controversies or litigation with any third party or parties involving or relating to the services provided for herein to Borrowers, Borrowers agree, jointly and severally, to indemnify Agent against any claims, costs, damages and liabilities, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and court costs incurred by or asserted against Agent to or by such third party or parties, excluding claims, costs, damages and liabilities resulting from Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. This indemnity shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

3.4 Application of Payments and Collections. Subject to the rights of the Borrowers to direct funds under Section 3.3(A), Borrowers irrevocably waive the right to direct the application of payments and collections received by Agent and/or any Lender from or on behalf of Borrowers, and Borrowers agree that Agent shall have the continuing exclusive right to apply and reapply any and all such payments and collections against the Liabilities in such manner as Agent may deem appropriate, notwithstanding any entry by Agent upon any of its books and records. To the extent that Borrowers make a payment or payments to Agent or Agent receives any payment or proceeds of the Collateral for Borrowers’ benefit, which payment(s) or proceeds are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party under any bankruptcy act, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause, then to the extent of such payment or proceeds received, the Liabilities intended to be satisfied shall be revived and shall continue in full force and effect, as if such payments or proceeds had not been received by Agent. Interest shall be payable out of the first collections received with respect to any proceeds of Collateral.

3.5 Records. All advances to Borrowers, and all other debits and credits provided for in this Agreement, shall be evidenced by entries made by Agent in its internal data control systems showing the date, amount and reason for each such debit or credit.

3.6 Due Date Extension.

Third, if any balance remains after the Liabilities have been paid in full, to Borrowers.

Each Lender shall apply any payment so received from Agent,

First, to unpaid accrued interest, if any, on its Liabilities until paid in full;

Second, to the unpaid premium, if any, on its Liabilities;

Third, to the unpaid principal of its Liabilities until paid in full; and

8.8 Method of Adjustment. If any Lender shall obtain any payment with respect to its Liabilities in excess of its (or their) pro rata share pursuant to Section 8.7, it shall be deemed to have received such excess on behalf of all Lenders and shall promptly deliver such excess to Agent for distribution in accordance with Section 8.7. If for any reason payments to Agent in the preceding sentence shall be determined by Agent to be improper or not advisable, then such Lender shall purchase from each Lender receiving less than its pro rata share, such participation in its Liabilities as shall be necessary for such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment received pro rata with such other Lenders; provided that if all or any portion of such excess payment be thereafter recovered from such purchasing Lender, the purchase shall be rescinded to the extent of such recovery, but without interest or premium; and, provided further that the nonperformance by any Lender of its obligation under this Section 8.8 shall not excuse any other Lender hereunder.

Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, except with respect to defaults in the payment of principal, interest and fees required to be paid to Agent for the account of Lenders, unless Agent shall have received written notice from a Lender or Borrowers referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default”. Agent will notify Lenders of its receipt of any such notice. Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as may be requested by the Required Lenders in accordance with Section 8; provided that unless and until Agent has received any

such request, Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable or in the best interest of Lenders.

9.6 Credit Decision. Each Lender acknowledges that none of the Agent-Related Persons has made any representation or warranty to it, and that no act by Agent hereinafter taken, including any review of the affairs of Borrowers and their Subsidiaries, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any Agent-Related Person to any Lender. Each Lender represents to Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of Borrowers and their Subsidiaries, and all applicable bank regulatory laws relating to the transactions contemplated hereby, and made its own decision to enter into this Agreement and to extend credit to Borrowers hereunder. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements, and to make such investigations as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of Borrowers. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly herein required to be furnished to Lenders by Agent, Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of Borrowers which may come into the possession of any of the Agent-Related Persons.

9.7 Indemnification. Lenders shall indemnify upon demand any Agent-Related Persons (to the extent not reimbursed by or on behalf of Borrowers and without limiting the obligation of Borrowers to do so), pro rata, from and against any and all Indemnified Liabilities; provided that no Lender shall be liable for the payment to Agent or any Agent-Related Persons of any portion of such Indemnified Liabilities resulting solely from such Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender shall reimburse Agent upon demand for its ratable share of any costs or out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable fees of attorneys for Agent) incurred by Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement, any other Ancillary Agreement, or any document contemplated by or referred to herein, to the extent that Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by or on behalf of Borrowers. To the extent that Agent or any Agent-Related Person shall thereafter be reimbursed by or on behalf of Borrowers for any amount paid by the Banks pursuant to this Section 9.7, such Person shall reimburse each Lender for its ratable share of any such amount. The undertaking in this Section 9.7 shall survive the expiration or termination of the Commitments and payment of the Loans and other liabilities of Borrowers hereunder and the resignation or replacement of Agent. For the purposes of this Section 9.7, “Indemnified Liabilities” shall mean: any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, charges, expenses and disbursements (including

reasonable fees of attorneys for Agent) of any kind or nature whatsoever which may at any time (including at any time following repayment of the Loans and the termination, resignation or replacement of Agent or replacement of any Lender) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against any such Agent Related Person in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any document contemplated by or referred to herein, or the transactions contemplated hereby, or any action taken or omitted by any such Agent Related Person under or in connection with any of the foregoing, including with respect to any investigation, litigation or proceeding (including (i) any case, action or proceeding before any court or other governmental authority relating to bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, liquidation, receivership, dissolution, winding-up or relief of debtors or (ii) any general assignment for the benefit of creditors, composition, marshaling of assets for creditors, or other, similar arrangement in respect of its creditors generally or any substantial portion of its creditors; undertaken under U.S. Federal, state or foreign law, including the Bankruptcy Code or appellate proceeding) related to or arising out of this Agreement or the Loans or the use of the proceeds thereof, whether or not any Agent-Related Person, any Lender or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, counsel, agents or attorneys-in-fact is a party thereto.

9.8 Agent in Individual Capacity. LaSalle and its Affiliates may make loans to, issue Letters of Credit for the account of, accept deposits from and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory, underwriting or other business with Borrowers and their Subsidiaries and Affiliates as though it were not Agent hereunder and without notice to or consent of Lenders. Lenders acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities, Agent or its Affiliates may receive information regarding Borrowers or their Affiliates (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of Borrowers or such Subsidiaries) and acknowledge that Agent shall be under no obligation to provide such information to them. With respect to their Loans, Agent and its Affiliates shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though such Agent were not an Agent, and the terms Lender and Lenders include Agent and its Affiliates, to the extent applicable, in their individual capacities.

9.9 Successor Agent. Agent may resign as the Agent upon 30 days’ notice to Lenders. If Agent resigns under this Agreement, the Required Lenders shall, with the prior written consent of Borrowers, appoint from among Lenders a successor agent for Lenders. If no successor agent is appointed prior to the effective date of the resignation of Agent, Agent may appoint, after consulting with Lenders and with the prior written consent of Borrowers, a successor agent from among Lenders. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as successor agent hereunder, such successor agent shall succeed to all the rights, powers and duties of the retiring Agent and the term Agent shall mean such successor agent and the retiring Agent’s appointment, powers and duties as an Agent shall be terminated. After any retiring Agent’s resignation 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. If no successor agent has accepted appointment as an Agent by the date which is 30 days following a retiring Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective and Lenders shall perform all of the duties of an Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor agent as provided for above.

10. MISCELLANEOUS.

10.1 Appointment of Agent as Each Borrower’s Lawful Attorney-In-Fact. Each Borrower irrevocably designates, makes, constitutes and appoints Agent (and all persons designated by Agent) as such Borrower’s true and lawful attorney and agent-in-fact and Agent, or Agent’s agent, may, without notice to such Borrower:

(A) At any time after the occurrence of and during the continuance of an Event of Default, endorse by writing or stamp each Borrower’s name on any checks, notes, drafts or any other payment relating to and/or proceeds of the Collateral which come into the possession of Agent or under Agent’s control and deposit the same to the account of Agent for application to the Liabilities;

(B) At any time after the occurrence of and during the continuance of an Event of Default, in each Borrower’s or Agent’s name: (i) demand payment of the Collateral; (ii) enforce payment of the Collateral, by legal proceedings or otherwise; (iii) exercise all of each Borrower’s rights and remedies with respect to the collection of the Collateral; (iv) settle, adjust, compromise, extend or renew the Accounts and the Special Collateral; (v) settle, adjust or compromise any legal proceedings brought to collect the Collateral; (vi) if permitted by applicable law, sell or assign the Collateral upon such terms, for such amounts and at such time or times as Agent deems advisable; (vii) satisfy and release the Accounts and Special Collateral; (viii) take control, in any manner, of any item of payment or proceeds referred to in Section 3.3; (ix) prepare, file and sign each Borrower’s name on any proof of claim in bankruptcy or similar document against any Account Debtor; (x) prepare, file and sign each Borrower’s name on any notice of Lien, assignment or satisfaction of Lien or similar document in connection with the Collateral; (xi) do all acts and things necessary, in Agent’s sole discretion, to fulfill each Borrower’s obligations under this Agreement; (xii) endorse by writing or stamp the name of each Borrower upon any chattel paper, document, instrument, invoice, freight bill, bill of lading or similar document or agreement relating to the Collateral; and (xiii) use the information recorded on or contained in any data processing equipment and computer hardware and software relating to the Collateral to which each Borrower has access; and

(C) At any time after the occurrence of and during the continuance of an Event of Default, notify the post office authorities to change the address for delivery of Borrower’s mail to an address designated by Agent and receive, open and dispose of all mail addressed to each Borrower.

10.2 Modification of Agreement; Sale of Notes; Participations. No amendment, modification or waiver of, or consent with respect to, any provision of this Agreement or the Notes shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed and delivered by Lenders having an aggregate Percentage of not less than the aggregate Percentage expressly designated herein with respect thereto or, in the absence of such designation as to any provision of this Agreement or the Notes, by the Required Lenders, and then any such amendment, modification, waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and

for the specific purpose for which given. No amendment, modification, waiver or consent shall extend or increase the amount of the Commitments, extend the final maturity of the Notes, reduce the principal thereof (other than pursuant to Section 2.1), reduce the fees hereunder or the rate of interest payable with respect to the Notes, reduce the aggregate Percentage required to effect an amendment, modification, waiver or consent, reduce the amount of or extend the date for the mandatory payments on the Notes, modify the definition of Borrowing Base, amend this Section 10.2 or permit any assignment by Borrowers of their obligations or rights hereunder or amend any covenants contained in Sections 7.1, 7.2 or 7.3, without the consent of the Required Lenders in each instance. No provision of this Agreement relating to Agent shall be amended, modified or waived without the consent of Agent. No provision of Section 2.13 shall be amended, modified or waived without the consent of the Issuing Lender. No Borrower may sell, assign, transfer or otherwise dispose of all or any portion of this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements, including, without limitation, such Borrower’s right, title, interest, remedies, powers, or duties. Each Borrower consents to any Lender’s participation, sale, assignment, transfer or other disposition, at any time or times, of this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements, including, without limitation, such Lender’s right, title, interest, remedies, powers, or duties. Each Borrower consents to any Lender’s pledge of its rights under this Agreement, any Note issued hereunder or any Ancillary Agreement to the Federal Reserve Bank. Any Lender shall have the right to sell, assign or transfer all or part of any Note to one or more banks or other financial institutions, or to grant participations to one or more banks or other financial institutions, in or to any Loan hereunder and any Note held by such Lender upon three (3) days prior written notice to Borrowers (and if no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing with the prior written consent of Borrowers) and Agent together with, in the case of assignments only, execution and delivery to Agent and the Borrowers of an Assignment Agreement in the form acceptable to Agent in its reasonable discretion (“Assignment Agreement”) and payment of a $5,000 fee to Agent for processing such assignment. Borrowers hereby consent to the disclosure of any information obtained by Agent or any Lender in connection herewith to any bank or other financial institution to which any Lender now or hereafter has sold, assigned or transferred, or sold or proposed to sell, assign or transfer, all or any part of any Note or any participation interest in any Loan or Note. Upon the sale, transfer or assignment of all or a portion of any Note pursuant to one or more Assignment Agreements, Borrowers shall, upon the request of the assigning Lender, execute a new note or notes in a form substantially similar to the Note or Notes so replaced. Each such transferee shall be deemed to be a Lender under this Agreement. Each transferee of any Note shall take such Note subject to the provisions of this Agreement and to any request made, waiver or consent given or other action taken hereunder prior to the receipt by Agent and Borrowers of written notice of such transfer. Each Lender represents that it is the present intention of such Lender to acquire each Note drawn to its order for its own account and not with a view to the distribution or sale thereof, subject, nevertheless, to the necessity that such Lender remain in control at all times of the disposition of property held by it for its own account; it being understood that the foregoing representation shall not affect the character of the Loans as commercial lending transactions.

10.3 Attorneys’ Fees and Expenses; Agent and Each Lender’s Out-of-Pocket Expenses. If, at any time or times, whether prior or subsequent to the date of this Agreement and regardless of the existence of a Default or an Event of Default, Agent and each Lender incurs reasonable legal or other costs and expenses or employs counsel, accountants or other professionals for advice or other representation or services in connection with:

(A) The preparation, negotiation and execution of this Agreement, all Ancillary Agreements, any amendment of or modification of this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements;

(B) Any litigation, contest, dispute, suit, proceeding or action (whether instituted by Agent, any Lender, a Borrower or any other Person) in any way relating to the Collateral, this Agreement, the Ancillary Agreements or Borrowers’ affairs;

(C) Any attempt to enforce any rights of Agent or any Lender against a Borrower or any other Person which may be obligated to Agent or such Lender by virtue of this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements, including, without limitation, the Account Debtors;

(D) Any attempt to inspect, verify, protect, collect, sell, liquidate or otherwise dispose of any of the Collateral; or

(E) Any inspection, verification, protection, collection, sale, liquidation or other disposition of any of the Collateral, including without limitation, Agent’s periodic field audits and audits of a Borrower’s books and records;

then, in any such event, the reasonable attorneys’ and paralegals’ fees and expenses arising from such services and all reasonably incurred expenses, costs, charges and other fees of or paid by Agent (or any Lender after the occurrence of and during the continuation of an Event of Default) in any way or respect arising in connection with or relating to any of the events or actions described in this Section 10.3 shall be payable by Borrowers, jointly and severally, to Agent (or any Lender after the occurrence of and during the continuation of an Event of Default) upon demand and shall be additional Liabilities. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, such expenses, costs, charges and fees may include accountants’ fees, costs and expenses; court costs, fees and expenses; photocopying and duplicating expenses; court reporter fees, costs and expenses; long distance telephone charges; courier charges; telegram and telecopy charges.

10.4 No Setoff; Right to Charge Accounts. All payments due to Agent or any Lender shall be made in immediately available funds, without setoff or counterclaim. At Agent’s or any Lender’s sole discretion, Agent or such Lender may charge against any demand account of a Borrower all or any part of the Liabilities which are due and payable.

10.5 Severability. Wherever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement.

10.6 Parties; Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the respective successors and assigns of each Borrower, Agent and each Lender. Each Borrower’s successors and assigns shall include, without limitation, a trustee, receiver or debtor-in-possession of or for such Borrower. Nothing contained in this Section 10.6 shall be deemed to modify Section 10.2. This Agreement is the complete statement of the agreement by and among Borrowers, Agent and each Lender and supersedes all prior negotiations, understandings and representations between them with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement.

10.7 Conflict of Terms. The provisions of the Ancillary Agreements are incorporated in this Agreement by this reference. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement and except as otherwise provided in the Ancillary Agreement, by specific reference to the applicable provision of this Agreement, if any provision contained in this Agreement is in conflict with, or inconsistent with, any provision in any Ancillary Agreement, the provision contained in this Agreement shall govern and control.

10.8 Waiver by Borrowers. Except as otherwise provided for in this Agreement, each Borrower waives (i) presentment, demand and protest, notice of protest, notice of presentment, default, non-payment, maturity, release, compromise, settlement, extension or renewal of any or all commercial paper, accounts, contract rights, documents, instruments, chattel paper and guaranties at any time held by Agent or any Lender on which such Borrower may in any way be liable and hereby ratifies and confirms whatever Agent or such Lender may do in this regard; (ii) all rights to notice and a hearing prior to Agent’s or any Lender’s taking possession or control of, or Agent’s or any Lender’s replevy, attachment or levy upon the Collateral or any bond or security which might be required by any court prior to allowing Agent or any Lender to exercise any of Agent’s or any Lender’s remedies; and (iii) the benefit of all valuation, appraisement, extension and exemption laws. Each Borrower acknowledges that it has been advised by its own counsel with respect to this Agreement and the transactions evidenced by this Agreement.

10.9 Waiver and Governing Law. THE LOANS EVIDENCED HEREBY HAVE BEEN MADE, AND THIS AGREEMENT HAS BEEN DELIVERED, AT CHICAGO, ILLINOIS, AND SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE INTERNAL LAWS (WITHOUT REGARD TO THE CONFLICTS OF LAWS PROVISIONS) OF THE STATE OF ILLINOIS. EACH BORROWER (i) WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION TO ENFORCE OR DEFEND ANY MATTER ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE ANCILLARY AGREEMENTS; (ii) IRREVOCABLY SUBMITS TO THE JURISDICTION OF ANY STATE OR FEDERAL COURT LOCATED IN COOK COUNTY, ILLINOIS, OVER ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING TO ENFORCE OR DEFEND ANY MATTER ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE ANCILLARY AGREEMENTS; (iii) IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT SUCH BORROWER MAY EFFECTIVELY DO SO, THE DEFENSE OF AN INCONVENIENT FORUM TO THE MAINTENANCE OF ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING; (iv) AGREES THAT A FINAL JUDGMENT IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING SHALL BE

CONCLUSIVE AND MAY BE ENFORCED IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION BY SUIT ON THE JUDGMENT OR IN ANY OTHER MANNER PROVIDED BY LAW; AND (v) AGREES NOT TO INSTITUTE ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING AGAINST AGENT, ANY LENDER OR ANY OF AGENT’S OR LENDER’S DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS OR PROPERTY, CONCERNING ANY MATTER ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE ANCILLARY AGREEMENTS IN ANY COURT OTHER THAN ONE LOCATED IN COOK COUNTY, ILLINOIS. EACH BORROWER WAIVES PERSONAL SERVICE OF THE SUMMONS AND COMPLAINT, OR OTHER PROCESS OR PAPERS ISSUED IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING TO ENFORCE OR DEFEND ANY MATTER ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE ANCILLARY AGREEMENTS, AND AGREES THAT SERVICE OF SUCH SUMMONS AND COMPLAINT, OR OTHER PROCESS OR PAPERS MAY BE MADE BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL ADDRESSED TO SUCH BORROWER AT THE ADDRESS SET FORTH IN SECTION 10.10. SHOULD SUCH BORROWER FAIL TO APPEAR OR ANSWER ANY SUMMONS, COMPLAINT, PROCESS OR PAPERS SERVED WITHIN THIRTY (30) DAYS AFTER THE RECEIPT THEREOF, IT SHALL BE DEEMED IN DEFAULT AND AN ORDER AND/OR JUDGMENT MAY BE ENTERED AGAINST IT AS DEMANDED OR PRAYED FOR IN SUCH SUMMONS, COMPLAINT, PROCESS OR PAPERS. NOTHING IN THIS PARAGRAPH SHALL AFFECT OR IMPAIR LENDER’S RIGHT TO SERVE LEGAL PROCESS IN ANY MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW OR LENDER’S RIGHT TO BRING ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING AGAINST SUCH BORROWER OR ITS PROPERTY IN THE COURTS OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTION.

10.10 Notice.

10.11 Section Titles, Etc. The section titles and table of contents, if any, contained in this Agreement are and shall be without substantive meaning or content of any kind whatsoever and are not a part of the agreement between the parties hereto. All Exhibits and Schedules which are referred to herein or attached hereto are incorporated by reference.

10.12 Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Notes. If any mutilated Note is surrendered to the Borrowers, the Borrowers shall execute therefor a new Note with the same principal amount, containing identical terms and provisions. If there shall be delivered to the Borrowers (a) evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Note and (b) such security or indemnity as may be required by them to hold the Borrowers and any agent of the Borrowers harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Borrowers that such Note has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Borrowers shall execute and deliver, in lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen Note or in exchange for such Note, a new Note with the same principal amount, containing identical terms and provisions. Upon the issuance of any new Note under this Section 10.12, the Borrowers may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses connected therewith. Every new Note, issued pursuant to this Section 10.12 in lieu of any destroyed, lost or stolen Note, shall constitute an original contractual obligation of the Borrowers, whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Agreement.

10.13 Customer Identification—USA Patriot Act Notice. Each Lender and LaSalle (for itself and not on behalf of any other party) hereby notifies the Borrowers that, pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act, Title III of Pub. L. 107-56, signed into law October 26, 2001 (the “Patriot Act”), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each Borrower, which information includes the name and address of each Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender or LaSalle, as applicable, to identify each Borrower in accordance with the Patriot Act.

11. CROSS-GUARANTY.

11.1 Cross-Guaranty. Each Borrower hereby agrees that such Borrower is jointly and severally liable for, and hereby absolutely and unconditionally guarantees to Agent and each Lender and their respective successors and assigns, the full and prompt payment (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) and performance of, all Liabilities owed or hereafter owing to Agent and each Lender by each other Borrower. Each Borrower agrees that its guaranty obligation hereunder is a continuing guaranty of payment and performance and not of collection, that its obligations under this Section 11 shall not be discharged until payment and performance, in full, of the Liabilities has occurred, and that its obligations under this Section 11 shall be absolute and unconditional, irrespective of, and unaffected by, the genuineness, validity, regularity, enforceability or any future amendment of, or change in, this Agreement, any other Ancillary Agreement or any other agreement, document or instrument to which any Borrower is or may become a party; the absence of any action to enforce this Agreement (including this Section 11) or any other Ancillary Agreement or the waiver or consent by Agent and each Lender with respect to any of the provisions thereof; the existence, value or condition of, or failure to perfect its Lien against, any security for the Liabilities or any action, or the absence of any action, by Agent and each Lender in respect thereof (including the release of any such security); the insolvency of any Borrower; or any other action or circumstances that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety or guarantor. Each Borrower shall be regarded, and shall be in the same position, as principal debtor with respect to the Liabilities guaranteed hereunder.

11.2 Waivers by Borrowers. Each Borrower expressly waives all rights it may have now or in the future under any statute, or at common law, or at law or in equity, or otherwise, to compel Agent or any Lender to marshal assets or to proceed in respect of the Liabilities guaranteed hereunder, against any other party or against any security for the payment and performance of the Liabilities before proceeding against, or as a condition to proceeding against, such Borrower. It is agreed among each Borrower, Agent and each Lender that the foregoing waivers are of the essence of the transaction contemplated by this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements and that, but for the provisions of this Section 11.2 and such waivers, Agent and Lenders would decline to enter into this Agreement.

11.3 Benefit of Guaranty. Each Borrower agrees that the provisions of this Section 11.3 are for the benefit of Agent and each Lender and their respective successors, transferees, endorsees and assigns, and nothing herein contained shall impair, as between any other Borrower and Agent or any Lender, the obligations of such other Borrower under this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements.

11.4 Subordination of Subrogation, Etc. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or in any Ancillary Agreement, and except as set forth in Section 11.7, each Borrower hereby expressly and irrevocably subordinates to payment of the Liabilities any and all rights at law or in equity to subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution, indemnification or set off and any and all defenses available to a surety, guarantor or accommodation co-obligor until the Liabilities are indefeasibly paid in full in cash. Each Borrower acknowledges and agrees that this subordination is intended to benefit Agent and each Lender and shall not limit or otherwise affect such Borrower’s liability hereunder or the enforceability of this Section 11, and that Agent, each Lender and their respective successors and assigns are intended third party beneficiaries of the waivers and agreements set forth in this Section 11.4.

11.5 Election of Remedies. If Agent or any Bank may, under applicable law, proceed to realize its benefits under this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement giving Agent or such Lender a Lien upon any Collateral, whether owned by any Borrower or by any other Person, either by judicial foreclosure or by non-judicial sale or enforcement, Agent or any Lender may, at its sole option, determine which of its remedies or rights it may pursue without affecting any of its rights and remedies under this Section 11. If, in the exercise of any of its rights and remedies, Agent or any Lender shall forfeit any of its rights or remedies, including its right to enter a deficiency judgment against any Borrower or any other Person, whether because of any applicable laws pertaining to “election of remedies” or the like, each Borrower hereby consents to such action by Agent or such Lender and waives any claim based upon such action, even if such action by Agent or such Lender shall result in a full or partial loss of any rights of subrogation that each Borrower might otherwise have had but for such action by Agent or such Lender. Any election of remedies that results in the denial or impairment of the right of Agent or any Lender to seek a deficiency judgment against any Borrower shall not impair any other Borrower’s obligation to pay the full amount of the Liabilities. In the event Agent or any Lender shall bid at any foreclosure or trustee’s sale or at any private sale permitted by law or this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreements, Agent or such Lender may bid all or less than the amount of the Liabilities and the amount of such bid need not be paid by Agent or such Lender but shall be credited against the Liabilities. The amount of the successful bid at any such sale, whether Agent, such Lender or any other party is the successful bidder, shall be conclusively deemed to be the fair market value of the Collateral and the difference between such bid amount and the remaining balance of the Liabilities shall be conclusively deemed to be the amount of the Liabilities guaranteed under this Section 11, notwithstanding that any present or future law or court decision or ruling may have the effect of reducing the amount of any deficiency claim to which Agent or any Lender might otherwise be entitled but for such bidding at any such sale.

11.6 Limitation. Notwithstanding any provision herein contained to the contrary, each Borrower’s liability under this Section 11 (which liability is in any event in addition to amounts for which such Borrower is primarily liable under Section 2) shall be limited to an amount not to exceed as of any date of determination the greater of: (i) the net amount of all Loans advanced to any other Borrower under this Agreement and then re-loaned or otherwise transferred to, or for the benefit of, such Borrower; and (ii) the amount that could be claimed by Agent and Lenders from such Borrower under this Section 11 without rendering such claim

voidable or avoidable under Section 548 of Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code or under any applicable state Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act, Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act or similar statute or common law after taking into account, among other things, such Borrower’s right of contribution and indemnification from each other Borrower under Section 11.7.

11.7 Contribution with Respect to Guaranty Obligations. To the extent that any Borrower shall make a payment under this Section 11 of all or any of the Liabilities (other than Loans made directly to that Borrower) (a “Guarantor Payment”) that exceeds the amount such Borrower would otherwise have paid if each Borrower had paid the aggregate Liabilities satisfied by such Guarantor Payment in the same proportion that such Borrower’s “Allocable Amount” (as defined below) (as determined immediately prior to such Guarantor Payment) bore to the aggregate Allocable Amounts of each of the Borrowers as determined immediately prior to the making of such Guarantor Payment, then, following indefeasible payment in full in cash of the Liabilities and termination of the Commitments) such Borrower shall be entitled to receive contribution and indemnification payments from, and be reimbursed by, each other Borrower for the amount of such excess, pro rata based upon their respective Allocable Amounts in effect immediately prior to such Guarantor Payment. As of any date of determination, the “Allocable Amount” of any Borrower shall be equal to the maximum amount of the claim that could then be recovered from such Borrower under this Section 11 without rendering such claim voidable or avoidable under Section 548 of Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code or under any applicable state Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act, Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act or similar statute or common law. This Section 11.7 is intended only to define the relative rights of Borrowers and nothing set forth in this Section 11.7 is intended to or shall impair the obligations of Borrowers, jointly and severally, to pay any amounts as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, including this Section 11.7. Nothing contained in this Section 11.7 shall limit the liability of any Borrower to pay the Loans made directly or indirectly to that Borrower and accrued interest, fees and expenses with respect thereto for which such Borrower shall be primarily liable. The parties hereto acknowledge that the rights of contribution and indemnification hereunder shall constitute assets of the Borrower to which such contribution and indemnification is owing. The rights of the indemnifying Borrowers against other Borrower under this Section 11.7 shall be exercisable upon the full and indefeasible payment of the Liabilities and the termination of the Commitments.

11.8 Liability Cumulative. The liability of Borrowers under this Section 11 is in addition to and shall be cumulative with all liabilities of each Borrower to Agent and each Lender under this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements to which such Borrower is a party or in respect of any Liabilities or obligation of the other Borrowers, without any limitation as to amount, unless the instrument or agreement evidencing or creating such other liability specifically provides to the contrary.

MASTER LETTER OF CREDIT AGREEMENT

Dated as of December 31, 2004

THIS MASTER LETTER OF CREDIT AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is issued by the undersigned applicant (the “Applicant”) in favor of LaSalle Bank National Association (together with its affiliates as set forth in Section 11.8, the “Bank”).

The Applicant may from time to time request that the Bank issue letters of credit for the account of the Applicant. The Applicant agrees that, except as provided below, any such letter of credit shall be subject to the terms and provisions of this Agreement, and the Applicant further agrees with and for the benefit of the Bank as follows:

SECTION 1 CERTAIN DEFINITIONS. When used herein the following terms shall have the following meanings (such definitions to be applicable to both the singular and plural forms of such terms):

Application means, at any time, an application (which shall be in writing, including by facsimile, or made by electronic transmission) for a letter of credit to be issued by the Bank, specifying (a) the requested issuance date, the amount, the beneficiary and the expiration date of such letter of credit, (b) the documentary requirements for drawing thereunder and (c) such other information as the Bank may reasonably request.

Business Day means any day on which the Bank is open for commercial banking business at its principal office in Chicago, Illinois.

A letter of credit issued by the Bank pursuant to an Application from the Applicant (either individually or together with any other Person) shall be a Letter of Credit hereunder even if another Person is named as the “Applicant” or “Account Party” in such letter of credit.

SECTION 2 LETTER OF CREDIT PROCEDURES.

2.1 Issuance of Letters of Credit. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Bank may from time to time, in its sole and complete discretion, issue Letters of Credit for the account of the Applicant; provided that the terms and provisions of each Letter of Credit and the Application therefor shall be satisfactory to the Bank in its discretion.

2.2 Applications. Not later than three Business Days prior to the date of the proposed issuance of a Letter of Credit (or such later date as the Bank shall agree), the Applicant shall deliver an Application for such Letter of Credit to the Bank. An Application may be sent by facsimile, by United Sates mail, by overnight courier, by electronic transmission using the system provided by the Bank, by personal delivery or by any other means acceptable to the Bank.

2.3 Form of Letters of Credit. (a) The Applicant authorizes the Bank to set forth the terms of each Application in the Letter of Credit corresponding to such Application (and in any amendment thereto) in such language as the Bank deems appropriate, with such variations from such terms as the Bank may in its discretion determine to be necessary (which determination shall be conclusive) and not materially inconsistent with such Application. The Bank may, but shall not be obligated to, request the Applicant to review the form of a Letter of Credit prior to issuance thereof, in which case the Applicant shall be deemed to have approved the form of such Letter of Credit. With respect to any other Letter of Credit, the Applicant agrees that such Letter of Credit shall be conclusively presumed to be in proper form unless the Applicant notifies the Bank in writing of any inconsistency in such Letter of Credit within three Business Days of its issuance. Upon receipt of timely notice of any discrepancy in any Letter of Credit, the Bank will endeavor to obtain the consent of the beneficiary and any confirming bank for an appropriate modification to such Letter of Credit; provided that the Bank shall have no liability or responsibility for its failure to obtain such consent.

(b) The Applicant accepts the risk that a Letter of Credit will be interpreted or applied other than as intended by the Applicant to the extent such Letter of Credit (i) permits presentation at a place other than the place of issuance, (ii) permits application of laws or practice rules with which the Applicant is unfamiliar; (iii) includes ambiguous, inconsistent or impossible requirements, (iv) requires termination or reduction against a presentation made by the Applicant rather than the beneficiary or (v) fails to incorporate appropriate letter of credit practices rules.

2.4 Representations and Warranties. The delivery of each Application shall automatically constitute a representation and warranty by the Applicant to the Bank to the effect that on the requested date of issuance of such Letter of Credit, (a) the representations and warranties of the Applicant set forth in Section 4 shall be true and correct as of such requested date as though made on the date thereof and (b) no Event of Default or Unmatured Event of Default shall have then occurred and be continuing or will result from such issuance.

SECTION 3 REIMBURSEMENT OBLIGATIONS; RESPONSIBILITIES, ETC.

3.1 Reimbursement Obligations. The Applicant hereby agrees to reimburse the Bank forthwith upon demand in an amount equal to any payment or disbursement made by the Bank under any Letter of Credit or any time draft issued pursuant thereto, together with interest on the amount so paid or disbursed by the Bank from and including the date of payment or disbursement to but not including the date the Bank is reimbursed by the Applicant at a rate per annum equal to the Prime Rate from time to time in effect plus 2% (or, if less, the maximum rate permitted by applicable law). The obligation of the Applicant to reimburse the Bank under this Section 3 for payments and disbursements made by the Bank under any Letter of Credit or any time draft issued pursuant thereto shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances, including, without limitation, the following:

(a)	any failure of any Item presented under such Letter of Credit to strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit;

(b)	the legality, validity, regularity or enforceability of such Letter of Credit or of any Item presented thereunder;

(c)	any defense based on the identity of the transferee of such Letter of Credit or the sufficiency of the transfer if such Letter of Credit is transferable;

(d)

the existence of any claim, set-off defense or other right that the Applicant may have at any time against any beneficiary or transferee of such Letter of Credit, the Bank or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or any unrelated transaction;

(e)	any Item presented under such Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect;

(f)	honor of a demand for payment presented electronically even if such Letter of Credit requires that demand be in the form of a draft;

(g)	waiver by the Bank of any requirement that exists for the Bank’s protection and not the protection of the Applicant or any waiver by the Bank which does not in fact materially prejudice the Applicant;

(h)	any payment made by the Bank in respect of an Item presented after the date specified as the expiration date of, or the date by which documents must be received under, such Letter of Credit if payment after such date is authorized by the ISP, the UCC or the UCP, as applicable; or

(i)	any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing;

provided that the Applicant shall not be obligated to reimburse the Bank for any wrongful payment or disbursement made by the Bank under any Letter of Credit as a result of any act or omission constituting gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Bank.

3.2 Discrepancies. (a) The Applicant agrees that it will promptly examine any and all instruments and documents delivered to it from time to time in connection with any Letter of Credit, and if the Applicant has any claim of non-compliance with its instructions or of discrepancies or other irregularity, the Applicant will immediately (and, in any event, within three Business Days) notify the Bank thereof in writing, and the Applicant shall be deemed to have waived any claim against the Bank unless such notice is given within such time period. Without limiting the foregoing, if the Bank makes any payment or disbursement under a Letter of Credit and the Applicant does not send a notice to the Bank within three Business Days objecting to such payment or disbursement and specifying in reasonable detail the discrepancy or irregularity which is the basis for such objection, then the Applicant shall be precluded from making any objection to the Bank’s honor of the presentation with respect to which such payment or disbursement was made (but shall not be precluded from asserting any objection to any different presentation under the same or a different Letter of Credit).

(b) The Applicant’s acceptance or retention of any documents presented under or in connection with a Letter of Credit (including originals or copies of documents sent directly to the Applicant) or of any property for which payment is supported by a Letter of Credit shall ratify the Bank’s honor of the documents and absolutely preclude the Applicant from raising a defense or claim with respect to the Bank’s honor of the relevant presentation.

3.3 Documents. Unless specified to the contrary in the relevant Application, the Applicant agrees that the Bank and its correspondents: (a) may accept as complying with the applicable Letter of Credit any Item drawn, issued or presented under such Letter of Credit which is issued or purportedly issued by an agent, executor, trustee in bankruptcy, receiver or other representative of the party identified in such Letter of Credit as the party permitted to draw, issue or present such Item; and (b) may in its or their discretion, but shall not be obligated to, accept or honor (i) any Item which substantially complies with the terms of the applicable Letter of Credit; (ii) any Item which substantially complies under the laws, rules, regulations and general banking or trade customs and usages of the place of presentation, negotiation or payment; (iii) drafts which fail to bear any or adequate reference to the applicable Letter of Credit; (iv) any Item presented to the Bank after the stated expiration date of a Letter of Credit but within any applicable time period during which such Letter of Credit may be honored in accordance with the UCP, the UCC and/or the ISP, as applicable (and, in any event, any Item presented to the Bank on the Business Day immediately following the stated expiration date of any Letter of Credit, if such stated expiration date falls on a day which is not a Business Day); or (v) any Item which substantially complies with the requirements of the UCP, the UCC and/or the ISP, as applicable. In determining whether to pay under any Letter of Credit, the Bank shall have no obligation to the Applicant or any other Person except to confirm that the Items required to be delivered under such Letter of Credit appear to have been delivered and appear on their face to substantially comply with the requirements of such Letter of Credit. For purposes of the foregoing, an Item “substantially complies” unless there are discrepancies in the presentation which appear to be substantial and which reflect corresponding defects in the beneficiary’s performance in the underlying transaction. A discrepancy is not substantial if it is unrelated or immaterial to the nature or amount of the Applicant’s loss. For example, documents honored by the Bank that do not comply with the timing requirements of the Letter of Credit for presenting or dating any required beneficiary statement nonetheless substantially comply if those timing requirements are not material in determining whether the underlying agreement has been substantially performed or violated.

3.4 Exculpation. In addition to the exculpatory provisions contained in the UCP, the UCC and/or the ISP, as applicable, the Bank and its correspondents shall not be responsible for, and the Applicant’s obligation to reimburse the Bank shall not be affected by, (a) compliance with any law, custom or regulation in effect in the country of issuance, presentation, negotiation or payment of any Letter of Credit, (b) any refusal by the Bank to honor any Item because of an applicable law, regulation or ruling of any governmental agency, whether now or hereafter in effect, (c) any action or inaction required or permitted under the UCC, the UCP, the ISP or the United Nations Convention on Independent Guarantees and Stand-by Letters of Credit, in each case as applicable, or (d) any act or the failure to act of any agent or correspondent of the Bank, including, without limitation, failure of any such agent or correspondent to pay any Item because of any law, decree, regulation, ruling or interpretation of any governmental agency.

3.5 Risks. The Applicant assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee of any Letter of Credit (it being understood that such assumption is not intended to, and shall not, preclude the Applicant from pursuing any right or remedy it may have against any such beneficiary or transferee). The Applicant further agrees that any action or omission by the Bank under or in connection with any Letter of Credit or any related Item, document or property shall, unless in breach of good faith, be binding on the Applicant and shall not put the Bank under any resulting liability to the Applicant. Without limiting the foregoing, the Applicant agrees that in no event shall the Bank be liable for incidental, consequential, punitive, exemplary or special damages.

3.6 Limitation on Bank’s Obligations. Without limiting any other provision herein, the Bank is expressly authorized and directed to honor any request for payment which is made under and in compliance with the terms of any Letter of Credit without regard to, and without any duty on the part of the Bank to inquire into, the existence of any dispute or controversy between any of the Applicant, the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or any other Person, or the respective rights, duties or liabilities of any of them, or whether any facts represented in any Item presented under a Letter of Credit are true or correct. Furthermore, the Applicant agrees that the Bank’s obligation to the Applicant shall be limited to honoring requests for payment made under and in compliance with the terms of any Letter of Credit, and the Bank’s obligation remains so limited even if the Bank may have prepared or assisted in the preparation of the wording of any Letter of Credit or any Item required to be presented thereunder or the Bank may otherwise be aware of the underlying transaction giving rise to any Letter of Credit.

3.7 Automatic Renewal of Letters of Credit. IF ANY LETTER OF CREDIT CONTAINS ANY PROVISION FOR AUTOMATIC RENEWAL, THE APPLICANT ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THE BANK IS UNDER NO OBLIGATION TO ALLOW SUCH RENEWAL TO OCCUR AND ANY SUCH RENEWAL SHALL REMAIN WITHIN THE SOLE AND ABSOLUTE DISCRETION OF THE BANK. THE APPLICANT IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO THE AUTOMATIC RENEWAL OF EACH SUCH LETTER OF CREDIT IN ACCORDANCE WITH ITS TERMS IF THE BANK ALLOWS SUCH RENEWAL TO OCCUR; PROVIDED THAT THE APPLICANT SHALL HAVE THE RIGHT TO REQUEST THE BANK TO DISALLOW ANY SUCH RENEWAL ON THE CONDITION THAT THE APPLICANT SHALL GIVE THE BANK PRIOR WRITTEN NOTICE OF SUCH REQUEST NOT LESS THAN 30 DAYS PRIOR TO THE DEADLINE IMPOSED UPON THE BANK FOR NOTIFICATION TO THE BENEFICIARY OF NON-RENEWAL OF ANY SUCH LETTER OF CREDIT.

SECTION 4 REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. The Applicant represents and warrants to the Bank that:

(a)

Organization, etc. The Applicant is duly organized or formed, validly existing and (to the extent applicable under the laws of the relevant jurisdiction) in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization or formation, and the Applicant is duly qualified and in good standing as a foreign entity authorized to do business in each other jurisdiction where, because of the nature of its activities or properties, such qualification is required.

(b)

Authorization; No Conflict. The execution and delivery by the Applicant of this Agreement and each Application, the issuance of Letters of Credit for the account of the Applicant hereunder and the performance by the Applicant of its obligations under this Agreement and the Applications are within the organizational powers of the Applicant, have been duly authorized by all necessary organizational action, have received all necessary governmental approval (if any shall be required), and do not and will not contravene or conflict with, or result in or require the imposition of any lien or security interest under, any provision of law or of the charter or by-laws of the Applicant or of any indenture, loan agreement or other contract, or any judgment, order or decree, which is binding upon the Applicant.

(c)

Validity and Binding Nature. This Agreement is, and upon delivery to the Bank each Application will be, the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Applicant, enforceable against the Applicant in accordance with its terms, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency and similar laws of general application affecting the rights of creditors and to general principles of equity.

(d)

Approvals. No authorization, approval or consent of, or notice to or filing with, any governmental or regulatory authority is required to be made in connection with the execution and delivery by the Applicant of this Agreement or the issuance of any Letter of Credit for the account of the Applicant pursuant hereto.

SECTION 5 FEES. The Applicant agrees to pay the Bank all reasonable fees of the Bank (at the rates specified by the Bank from time to time in schedules delivered by the Bank to the Applicant) with respect to each Letter of Credit (including, without limitation, all fees associated with any amendment to, drawing under, banker’s acceptance pursuant to, or transfer of a Letter of Credit), such fees to be payable on demand by the Bank therefor.

SECTION 6 COMPUTATION OF INTEREST AND FEES. All interest and fees hereunder shall be computed for the actual number of days elapsed on the basis of a year of 360 days. The interest rate applicable to Letter of Credit reimbursement obligations shall change simultaneously with each change in the Prime Rate.

SECTION 7 MAKING OF PAYMENTS. (a) All payments of principal of, or interest on, letter of credit reimbursement obligations, all payments of fees and all other payments hereunder shall be made by the Applicant in immediately available funds to the Bank at its principal office in Chicago not later than 12:30 P.M., Chicago time, on the date due, and funds received after that time shall be deemed to have been received by the Bank on the next Business Day. If any payment of principal, interest or fees falls due on a Saturday, Sunday or other day which is not a Business Day, then such due date shall be extended to the next Business Day, and additional interest shall accrue and be payable for the period of such extension.

(b) The Applicant irrevocably agrees that the Bank or any affiliate thereof may (but neither the Bank nor any such affiliate shall be obligated to) debit any deposit account of the Applicant in an amount sufficient to pay any fee, reimbursement obligation or other amount that is due and payable hereunder. The Bank or the applicable affiliate shall promptly notify the Applicant of any such debit (but failure of the Bank or any such affiliate to do so shall not impair the effectiveness thereof or impose any liability on the Bank or such affiliate).

(c) The Applicant shall reimburse the Bank for each payment under a Letter of Credit in the same currency in which such payment was made; provided that, if the Bank so requests (in its discretion), the Applicant shall reimburse the Bank in United States dollars for any payment under a Letter of Credit made in a foreign currency at the rate at which the Bank could sell such foreign currency in exchange for United States dollars for transfer to the place of payment of such payment or, if there is no such rate, the United States dollar equivalent of the Bank’s actual cost of settlement. The Applicant agrees to pay the Bank on demand in United States dollars such amounts as the Bank may be required to expend to comply with any and all governmental exchange regulations now or hereafter applicable to the purchase of foreign currency.

(d) All payments by the Applicant hereunder shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any present or future income, excise or stamp taxes and any other taxes, fees, duties, withholdings or other charges of any nature whatsoever imposed by any taxing authority, but excluding franchise taxes and taxes imposed on or measured by the Bank’s net income or receipts (such non-excluded items being called “Taxes”). If any withholding or deduction from any payment to be made by the Bank hereunder is required in respect of any Taxes pursuant to any applicable law, rule or regulation, then the Applicant will

(i) pay directly to the relevant authority the full amount required to be so withheld or deducted;

(ii) promptly forward to the Bank an official receipt or other documentation satisfactory to the Bank evidencing such payment to such authority; and

(iii) pay to the Bank such additional amount as is necessary to ensure that the net amount actually received by the Bank will equal the full amount the Bank would have received had no such withholding or deduction been required.

Moreover, if any Taxes are directly asserted against the Bank or on any payment received by the Bank hereunder, the Bank may pay such Taxes and the Applicant will promptly pay such additional amount (including any penalty, interest or expense) as is necessary in order that the net amount received by the Bank after the payment of such Taxes (including any Taxes on such additional amount) shall equal the amount the Bank would have received had no such Taxes been asserted.

If the Applicant fails to pay any Taxes when due to the appropriate taxing authority or fails to remit to the Bank the required receipts or other required documentary evidence, the Applicant shall indemnify the Bank for any incremental Tax, interest, penalty or expense that may become payable by the Bank as a result of such failure.

SECTION 8 INCREASED COSTS. If, after the date hereof, the adoption of, or any change in, any applicable law, rule or regulation, or any change in the interpretation or administration of any applicable law, rule or regulation by any governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by the Bank with any request, guideline or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency,

(a)

affects or would affect the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by the Bank or any corporation controlling the Bank and (taking into consideration the Bank’s or such controlling corporation’s policies with respect to capital adequacy) the Bank determines that the amount of such capital is increased as a consequence of this Agreement or the Letters of Credit; or

(b)

imposes, modifies or deems applicable any reserve (including, without limitation, any reserve imposed by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System), special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by the Bank with respect to letters of credit, or imposes on the Bank any other condition affecting this Agreement or the Letters of Credit, and the Bank determines that the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to, or to impose a cost on, the Bank of issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit or of making any payment or disbursement under any Letter of Credit, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by the Bank under this Agreement;

then within five Business Days after demand by the Bank (which demand shall be accompanied by a statement setting forth in reasonable detail the basis of such demand and a calculation thereof in reasonable detail), the Applicant shall pay directly to the Bank such additional amount as will compensate the Bank for such increased capital requirement, such increased cost or such reduction, as the case may be. Determinations and statements of the Bank pursuant to this Section 8 shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the provision of this Section 8 shall survive termination of this Agreement.

SECTION 9 EVENTS OF DEFAULT AND THEIR EFFECT.

9.1 Events of Default. Each of the following shall constitute an Event of Default under this Agreement:

9.1.1 Non-Payment of Liabilities, etc. Default in the payment when due of any principal of or interest on any Liabilities; or default, and continuance thereof for five days after notice thereof from the Bank, in the payment when due of any fees or other amounts payable by the Applicant hereunder.

9.1.2 Bankruptcy, etc. The Applicant or any guarantor of the Liabilities shall become insolvent or admit in writing its inability to pay debts as they mature, or the Applicant or any such guarantor shall apply for, consent to or acquiesce in the appointment of a trustee or receiver, or in the absence of such application, consent or acquiescence, a trustee or receiver is appointed for the Applicant or any such guarantor, or any proceeding under any bankruptcy or insolvency law or any dissolution or liquidation proceeding is instituted by or against the Applicant or any such guarantor and, if instituted against the Applicant or such guarantor, remains for 30 days undismissed, or any writ of attachment is issued against any substantial portion of the Applicant’s or any such guarantor’s property and is not released within 30 days of service, or the Applicant or any such guarantor takes any action to authorize, or in furtherance of, any of the foregoing.

9.1.3 Other Agreements with Bank. Any default shall occur (subject to any applicable grace period) under any other agreement between the Applicant and the Bank or any of its affiliates (including any agreement under which the Applicant is a borrower and the Bank or any such affiliate and one or more other financial institutions are the lenders); or the Applicant shall fail to comply with or to perform (subject to any applicable grace period) any covenant set forth in any such other agreement as such covenant is in effect on the date hereof or is amended from time to time with the consent of the Bank (but without giving effect to the expiration or termination of any such agreement unless such agreement is replaced by another agreement to which the Bank is a party).

9.1.4 Representations and Warranties. Any representation or warranty made by the Applicant herein or in any writing furnished in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement shall be false or misleading in any material respect on the date made.

9.2 Effect of Event of Default. If any Event of Default described in Section 9.1.2 shall occur, all Liabilities shall immediately become due and payable and the Applicant shall immediately become obligated to deliver to the Bank cash collateral in an amount equal to the face amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit; and if any other Event of Default shall occur, the Bank may declare all Liabilities to be due and payable and may demand that the Applicant immediately deliver to the Bank cash collateral in an amount equal to the face amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit, whereupon all Liabilities shall become immediately due and payable and the Applicant shall immediately become obligated to deliver to the Bank cash collateral in an amount equal to the face amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit. The Bank shall promptly advise the Applicant of any such declaration, but failure to do so shall not impair the effect of such declaration. The Applicant hereby grants the Bank a security interest in all cash collateral delivered hereunder. All cash collateral shall be held by the Bank and applied to Liabilities arising in connection with any drawing under a Letter of Credit. After all Letters of Credit have been fully drawn, expired or been terminated, such cash collateral shall be applied by the Bank, first, to any remaining Liabilities and, then, to any other liabilities of the Applicant to the Bank, and any excess shall be delivered to the Applicant or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct.

SECTION 10 SECURITY.

10.1 Grant of Security Interest. As security for the prompt payment and performance of all Liabilities, and in addition to any other security given to the Bank by separate agreement, the Applicant hereby grants to the Bank a continuing security interest in all of the following, whether now existing or hereafter arising; (i) all property shipped, stored or dealt with in connection with any Letter of Credit; and (ii) all drafts, documents, instruments, contacts (including, without limitation, shipping documents, warehouse receipts and policies or certificates of insurance), inventory, accounts, chattel paper and general intangibles, and all proceeds of the foregoing, arising from or in connection with any Letter of Credit, including, without limitation, any of the foregoing which is in the Bank’s actual or constructive possession or is in transit to the Bank or any of its affiliates, agents or correspondents (and regardless of whether such property has been released to the Applicant). The Applicant further agrees that the Bank or any of its affiliates may set off and apply to any of the Liabilities which are then due and payable (by acceleration or otherwise) any deposit of the Applicant at any time held by the Bank or any of its affiliates. The Applicant agrees that this Agreement (or a carbon or photographic copy hereof) may be filed as a financing statement to the extent permitted by law. The Applicant authorizes the Bank to file such financing statements as may be required by the Bank to perfect the security interest of the Bank hereunder. The Applicant also agrees that, on request by the Bank, the Applicant shall execute and deliver such financing statements and other documents or instruments as may be required by the Bank to perfect or maintain the security interest of the Bank hereunder.

10.2 Rights and Remedies. The Bank shall have all rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC. If prior notice to the Applicant is required for any action, the Bank shall give the Applicant at least five days’ notice in writing of the time and place of the sale, disposition or other event giving rise to such required notice, and the Applicant agrees that such notice will be deemed commercially reasonable. Any property or document representing collateral may be held by the Bank in its name or in the name of the Bank’s nominee, all without prior notice. Proceeds of any sale or other disposition of collateral shall be applied, in order, to the expenses of retaking, holding and preparing the collateral for sale (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and legal expenses), and then to the obligations of the Applicant hereunder until paid in full. The Applicant shall be liable for any deficiency.

SECTION 11 GENERAL.

11.1 Waiver; Amendments. No delay on the part of the Bank in the exercise of any right, power or remedy shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or remedy preclude other or further exercise thereof, or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy. No amendment, modification or waiver of, or consent with respect to, any provision of this Agreement shall be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed and delivered by the Bank, and then any such amendment, modification, waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given.

11.2 Notices. (a) Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all notices hereunder shall be in writing (including facsimile and electronic transmission, which shall be considered original writings). Notices given by mail shall be deemed to have been given three Business Days after the date sent if sent by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, to the applicable party at its address shown below its signature hereto or at such other address as such party may, by written notice received by the other party to this Agreement, have designated as its address for notices. Notices given by facsimile or electronic transmission shall be deemed to have been given when sent. Notices sent by any other means shall be deemed to have been given when received (or when delivery is refused).

(b) The Bank may rely on any writing (including any facsimile, any electronic transmission or any information on a computer disk or similar medium which may be reduced to writing), or any telephonic or other oral message or instruction (including, without limitation, any oral waiver of any discrepancy with respect to any Item), that the Bank believes in good faith to have been received from an authorized officer, employee or representative of the Applicant, and the Bank shall not be liable for any action taken in good faith with respect to any writing, message or instruction from an unauthorized person. The Bank shall not be under any duty to verify the identity of any person submitting any Application or other writing or making any other communication hereunder.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Bank is not obligated to recognize the authenticity of any request to issue, amend, honor or otherwise act on any Letter of Credit that is not evidenced to the Bank’s satisfaction by a writing originally signed by a person the Applicant has certified is authorized to act for the Applicant hereunder or by a message or instruction authenticated to the Bank’s satisfaction.

11.3 Costs, Expenses and Taxes; Indemnification. (a) The Applicant agrees to pay on demand all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Bank (including the reasonable fees and charges of counsel for the Bank) in connection with the enforcement of this Agreement. In addition, the Applicant agrees to pay, and to save the Bank harmless from all liability for, any stamp or other taxes which may be payable in connection with the execution or delivery of this Agreement, the issuance of Letters of Credit hereunder, or the issuance of any other instrument or document provided for herein or delivered or to be delivered hereunder or in connection herewith.

(b) The Applicant agrees to indemnify the Bank and each of its affiliates and each of their respective officers, directors, employees and agents (each an “Indemnified Party”) against, and to hold each Indemnified Party harmless from, any and all actions, causes of action, suits, losses, costs, damages, expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and charges, expert witness fees and other dispute resolution expenses) and other liabilities (collectively the “Indemnified Liabilities”) incurred by any Indemnified Party as a result of, or arising out of, or relating to, this Agreement or any Letter of Credit (and without regard to whether the applicable Indemnified Party is a party to any proceeding out of which such Indemnified Liabilities arise), except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final, non-appealable order that any Indemnified Liability resulted directly from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Party. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the term “Indemnified Liabilities” includes any claim or liability in which an advising, confirming or other nominated bank, or a beneficiary requested to issue its own undertaking, seeks to be reimbursed, indemnified or compensated. If and to the extent the foregoing undertaking may be unenforceable for any reason, the Applicant agrees to make the maximum contribution to the payment of each of the Indemnified Liabilities which is permitted under applicable law.

(c) Without limiting clause (b), the Applicant agrees to indemnify the Bank, and to hold the Bank harmless from, any loss or expense incurred by the Bank as a result of any judgment or order being given or made for the payment of any amount due hereunder in a particular currency (the “Currency of Account”) and such judgment or order being expressed in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than the Currency of Account and as a result of any variation having occurred in the rate of exchange between the date which such amount is converted into the Judgment Currency and the date of actual payment pursuant thereto. The foregoing indemnity shall constitute a separate and independent obligation of the Applicant.

(d) All obligations provided for in this Section 11.3 shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

11.4 Captions. Section captions used in this Agreement are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction of this Agreement.

11.5 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be a contract made under and governed by the laws of the State of Illinois applicable to contracts made and to be performed entirely within such State. Except to the extent inconsistent with such state law or otherwise expressly stated in any Letter of Credit, each Letter of Credit and this Agreement also are subject to the terms of (i) with respect to matters relating to standby Letters of Credit and Applications therefor, the ISP, and (ii) with respect to matters relating to commercial Letters of Credit and Applications therefor, the UCP. Whenever possible each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement. All obligations of the Applicant and rights of the Bank expressed herein shall be in addition to and not in limitation of those provided by applicable law.

11.6 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by the parties hereto on separate counterparts and each such counterpart shall be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same Agreement.

11.7 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon the Applicant and its successors and assigns, provided that the Applicant may not assign any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Bank.

11.8 Right of Bank to Act through Branches and Affiliates. The Bank may cause any Letter of Credit requested by the Applicant to be issued by a branch or affiliate of the Bank, and all references to the “Bank” herein or in any related document shall include each applicable branch or affiliate.

11.9 Foreign Assets Control Regulations. The Applicant certifies that no transaction in foreign commodities covered by any Application will be prohibited under the foreign assets control regulations of the United States Treasury Department and that any importation related to any Letter of Credit will conform with all applicable laws, rules and regulations.

11.10 Mitigation; Limitation of Liability. The Applicant agrees to take action to avoid or reduce the amount of any damages which may be claimed against the Bank. For example, (a) in the case of wrongful honor, the Applicant agrees to enforce its rights arising out of the underlying transaction (except to the extent that enforcement is impractical due to the insolvency of the beneficiary or other Person from whom the Applicant might otherwise recover), and (b) in the case of wrongful dishonor, the Applicant agrees to specifically and timely authorize the Bank to effect a cure and give written assurances to the beneficiary that a cure is being arranged. The Applicant’s aggregate remedies against the Bank for honoring a presentation or retaining honored documents in breach of the Bank’s obligations to the Applicant (whether arising under this Agreement, applicable letter of credit practice or law, or any other agreement or law) are limited to the aggregate amount paid by the Applicant to the Bank with respect to the honored presentation.

11.11 Subrogation. The Bank shall be subrogated (for purposes of defending against the Applicant’s claims and proceeding against others to the extent of any liability of the Bank to the Applicant) to the Applicant’s rights against any Person who may be liable to the Applicant on any underlying transaction, to the rights of any holder in due course or Person with similar status against the Applicant and to the rights of the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or its assignee or any Person with similar status against the Applicant.

11.12 Co-Applicants. (a) If this Agreement is signed by two or more Persons (each a “Co-Applicant”), then the term “Applicant” shall mean each such Person and all such Persons shall be jointly and severally liable for all obligations of the “Applicant” hereunder and in respect of the Letters of Credit issued pursuant hereto. Any Co-Applicant shall have the right to issue all instructions relating to Letters of Credit (including, without limitation, instructions as to the disposition of documents and waiver of discrepancies) and to agree with the Bank upon any amendment, extension, renewal or modification of, or change in the amount of, any Letter of Credit, and such instructions and agreements shall be binding upon all Co-Applicants. Each Co-Applicant shall be bound by (i) any notice from the Bank to any other Co-Applicant, (ii) any other Co-Applicant’s settlement or release of any claim against the Bank arising under this Agreement and (iii) any default under this Agreement attributable to any other Co-Applicant.

(b) Each Co-Applicant agrees that if at any time all or any part of any payment theretofore applied by the Bank to any of the Liabilities is or must be rescinded or returned by the Bank for any reason whatsoever (including the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any Co-Applicant), such Liabilities shall, to the extent that such payment is or must be rescinded or returned, be deemed to have continued in existence, notwithstanding such application by the Bank, and the obligations of such Co-Applicant with respect thereto shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, as to such Liabilities, all as though such application by the Bank had not been made.

(c) The Bank may, from time to time, in its sole discretion and without affecting the obligation of any Co-Applicant, take any or all of the following actions: (a) retain or obtain the primary or secondary obligation of any other obligor, in addition to such Co-Applicant, with respect to any of the Liabilities, and take any security for the obligations of any such other obligor, (b) extend or renew any of

the Liabilities for one or more periods (whether or not longer than the original period), alter or exchange any of the Liabilities, or release or compromise any obligation of any other Co-Applicant or any obligation of any nature of any other obligor with respect to any of the Liabilities, (c) release its security interest in, or surrender, release or permit any substitution or exchange for, all or any part of any property securing any of the Liabilities, or extend or renew for one or more periods (whether or not longer than the original period) or release, compromise, alter or exchange any obligations of any nature of any obligor with respect to any such property, and (d) resort to such Co-Applicant for payment of any of the Liabilities when due, whether or not the Bank shall have resorted to any property securing any of the Liabilities or shall have proceeded against any other Co-Applicant or any other obligor primarily or secondarily obligated with respect to any of the Liabilities.

11.13 Continuation of Liability. Regardless of the expiry date of any Letter of Credit, the Applicant shall remain liable hereunder until the Bank is released from liability by every Person that is entitled to draw or demand payment under each Letter of Credit issued pursuant hereto.

11.14 Jurisdiction. ANY LITIGATION BASED HEREON, OR ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY APPLICATION, SHALL BE BROUGHT AND MAINTAINED EXCLUSIVELY IN THE COURTS OF COOK COUNTY, ILLINOIS OR IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF ILLINOIS; PROVIDED THAT ANY SUIT SEEKING ENFORCEMENT AGAINST ANY COLLATERAL OR OTHER PROPERTY MAY BE BROUGHT, AT THE BANK’S OPTION, IN THE COURTS OF ANY JURISDICTION WHERE SUCH COLLATERAL OR OTHER PROPERTY MAY BE FOUND. THE APPLICANT HEREBY EXPRESSLY AND IRREVOCABLY SUBMITS TO THE JURISDICTION OF THE COURTS OF COOK COUNTY, ILLINOIS AND OF THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF ILLINOIS FOR THE PURPOSE OF ANY SUCH LITIGATION. THE APPLICANT FURTHER IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO THE SERVICE OF PROCESS BY REGISTERED MAIL, POSTAGE PREPAID, TO THE ADDRESS SET FORTH BENEATH ITS SIGNATURE HERETO (OR SUCH OTHER ADDRESS AS IT SHALL HAVE SPECIFIED IN WRITING TO THE BANK AS ITS ADDRESS FOR NOTICES HEREUNDER) OR BY PERSONAL SERVICE WITHIN OR WITHOUT THE STATE OF ILLINOIS. THE APPLICANT EXPRESSLY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ANY OBJECTION WHICH IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY SUCH LITIGATION BROUGHT IN ANY SUCH COURT AND ANY CLAIM THAT ANY SUCH LITIGATION HAS BEEN BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT FORUM.

11.15 Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH OF THE APPLICANT AND, BY ISSUING ANY LETTER OF CREDIT, THE BANK HEREBY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING TO ENFORCE OR DEFEND ANY RIGHTS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY APPLICATION, INSTRUMENT, DOCUMENT, AMENDMENT OR AGREEMENT DELIVERED OR WHICH MAY IN THE FUTURE BE DELIVERED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR ARISING FROM ANY BANKING RELATIONSHIP EXISTING IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT, AND AGREES THAT ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING SHALL BE TRIED BEFORE A COURT AND NOT BEFORE A JURY.

Form of Second Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Note

SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED

REVOLVING CREDIT NOTE


$35,000,000.00		Chicago, Illinois
		October , 2005

On or before the Revolving Credit Termination Date, FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned (“Borrowers”) promise to pay to the order of LASALLE BANK NATIONAL ASSOCIATION (“Lender”) at the Agent’s office at 135 South LaSalle Street, Chicago, Illinois 60603, or such other place as the Agent may designate from time to time hereafter, the principal sum of Thirty-Five Million and 00/100 Dollars ($35,000,000.00) or, if less, the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all Loans made by Lender under the Revolving Credit Facility pursuant to that certain Second Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement dated of even date herewith, among Borrowers, Agent and the Lenders party thereto (herein, as the same may be amended, modified or supplemented from time to time, the “Loan Agreement”) as shown on a schedule attached hereto or in the Agent’s records. All capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the same meanings ascribed to such terms in the Loan Agreement.

This Note evidences certain Loans under the Revolving Credit Facility made from time to time to Borrowers by the Lender under the Loan Agreement, and the Borrowers hereby promise to pay interest at the offices described above on the Loans evidenced hereby at the rates and at the times and in the manner specified therefor in the Loan Agreement.

Repayments of principal hereon, shall be recorded by the Agent on a schedule to this Note or recorded on the Agent’s books and records. Borrowers agree that in any action or proceeding instituted to collect or enforce collection of this Note, the entries so recorded on a schedule to this Note or recorded on the books and records of the Agent shall, absent demonstrable error be conclusive evidence of the amount of the Loans made by Lender to Borrowers and the interest and payments thereon.

This Note is issued by the Borrowers under the terms and provisions of the Loan Agreement and is secured by, among other things, the Collateral, the Amended and Restated ModusLink Pledge Agreement and this Note and the holder hereof is entitled to all of the benefits and security provided for thereby or referred to therein, to which reference is hereby made for a statement thereof. This Note may be declared to be, or be and become, due prior to its expressed maturity on the terms set forth in the Loan Agreement. Voluntary prepayments may be made on this Note, and certain prepayments are required to be made hereon, all in the events, on the terms and with the effects provided in the Loan Agreement.

All of Lender’s rights and remedies are cumulative and non-exclusive. The acceptance by Lender of any partial payment made hereunder after the time when any of the Liabilities hereunder become due and payable will not establish a custom, or waive any rights of Lender to enforce prompt payment thereof. Lender’s failure to require strict performance by Borrowers of any provision of

this Note shall not waive, affect or diminish any right of Lender thereafter to demand strict compliance and performance therewith. Any waiver of an Event of Default hereunder shall not suspend, waive or affect any other Event of Default hereunder. Borrowers and every endorser waive presentment, demand and protest and notice of presentment, protest, default, non-payment, maturity, release, compromise, settlement, extension or renewal of this Note. Borrowers further waive any and all notice or demand to which Borrowers might be entitled with respect to this Note by virtue of any applicable statute or law (to the extent permitted by law).

This Note is issued in replacement of that certain First Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Note dated December 31, 2004 in the original principal amount of $20,000,000.00 (the “Prior Note”). The Prior Note shall be deemed terminated and of no further force and effect by the acceptance by Lender of this Note.

THE LOANS EVIDENCED HEREBY HAVE BEEN MADE, AND THIS NOTE HAS BEEN DELIVERED, AT CHICAGO, ILLINOIS, AND SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE INTERNAL LAWS (WITHOUT REGARD TO THE CONFLICTS OF LAWS PROVISIONS) OF THE STATE OF ILLINOIS. BORROWERS (i) WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION TO ENFORCE OR DEFEND ANY MATTER ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO THIS NOTE; (ii) IRREVOCABLY SUBMIT TO THE JURISDICTION OF ANY STATE OR FEDERAL COURT LOCATED IN COOK COUNTY, ILLINOIS, OVER ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING TO ENFORCE OR DEFEND ANY MATTER ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO THIS NOTE; (iii) IRREVOCABLY WAIVE, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT BORROWERS MAY EFFECTIVELY DO SO, THE DEFENSE OF AN INCONVENIENT FORUM TO THE MAINTENANCE OF ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING; (iv) AGREE THAT A FINAL JUDGMENT IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING SHALL BE CONCLUSIVE AND MAY BE ENFORCED IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION BY SUIT ON THE JUDGMENT OR IN ANY OTHER MANNER PROVIDED BY LAW; AND (v) AGREE NOT TO INSTITUTE ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING AGAINST LENDER OR ANY OF LENDER’S DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS OR PROPERTY, CONCERNING ANY MATTER ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS NOTE IN ANY COURT OTHER THAN ONE LOCATED IN COOK COUNTY, ILLINOIS.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as special counsel to ModusLink Corporation, a Delaware corporation, SalesLink LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, and SalesLink Mexico Holding Corp., a Delaware corporation (each, a “Borrower” and collectively, the “Borrowers”). We are furnishing this opinion letter to you in connection with (i) the Second Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement dated as of October 31, 2005 among the Borrowers, the Agent and the Lenders party thereto (the “Loan Agreement”) and (ii) the Ancillary Agreements, each dated as of October 31, 2005, including, but not limited to, the Amended and Restated ModusLink Pledge Agreement and the Amended and Restated Intercreditor (Subordination) Agreement (the Loan Agreement and Ancillary Agreements are collectively referred to as, the “Loan Documents”). Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Loan Agreement.

We have examined such documents and made such other investigations as we have deemed appropriate to render the opinions set forth below. As to matters of fact material to our opinions, we have relied, without independent verification or investigation, on, and assumed the truth and accuracy of, representations made in the Loan Agreement and certificates and other inquiries of officers of the Borrowers. We have also relied on certificates of public officials. With respect to our opinions in paragraphs 5 and 7, we have not searched the dockets or records of any court, government agency or other office in any jurisdiction.

The opinions expressed below are limited to Massachusetts law, the Delaware General Corporation Law statute and the federal law of the United States of general application to transactions in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. We note that the Loan Documents provide that they are governed by Illinois law. With your permission, we are rendering the opinions expressed below as though the Loan Documents provide they are governed by Massachusetts law.

31 St. James Avenue, Suite 850, Boston, Massachusetts 02116 MAIN: (617) ###-###-#### FAX: (617) ###-###-####

References to “our knowledge” or to matters “known to us” or equivalent words means the actual knowledge of Thomas B. Rosedale of this firm.

In rendering this opinion to you, we have also assumed, with your permission, (i) each document and instrument submitted to us for review is accurate and complete, each such document that is an original is authentic, each such document that is a copy conforms to an authentic original, and all signatures on each such document are genuine, and (ii) each certificate issued by a governmental office or agency and each document supplied to us, directly or indirectly, is accurate, complete and authentic and all official public records (including their proper indexing and filing) are accurate and complete.

We express no opinion with respect to the effect or enforceability of any provision of any Loan Document that (i) increases the rate of interest upon any default or imposes a late fee to the extent either is determined to be a penalty, (ii) provides for collection of interest on overdue interest, (iii) purports to establish evidentiary standards, (iv) waives any statutory, constitutional or other legal right, (v) provides for recourse or exercise of any remedial rights in the absence of notice and a hearing, (vi) relates to the appointment of a receiver, (vii) provides for submission to exclusive jurisdiction or the exclusive choice of venue, (viii) purports to grant rights of set-off or similar rights, (ix) purports to grant a power of attorney which is against public policy, (x) relates to the election or cumulation of remedies to the extent such remedies are not enforced in a commercially reasonable manner or (xi) relates to the effect of any failure to exercise any right or remedy provided to you in the Loan Documents.

We express no opinion with respect to the attachment, perfection or priority of any lien or security interest in any collateral granted pursuant to any Loan Document.

Without limiting the generality of any other exception, limitation or qualification, we have not considered and do not express an opinion with respect to any federal or state securities, environmental, tax, bankruptcy, or antitrust laws and regulations.

Our opinions below as to the validity and enforceability of the Loan Documents are subject to, and may be limited or otherwise affected by, bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, liquidation, readjustment of debt, receivership, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance, equitable subordination, equity of redemption, recharacterization or other similar legal principles now or hereafter in effect governing or affecting the rights and remedies of debtors and creditors generally, or general principles of equity, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding at law or in equity.

Based upon and subject to the foregoing, and subject to the additional qualifications, limitations and assumptions set forth below, we are of the opinion that:

The Borrowers are corporations or limited liability companies, as applicable, duly incorporated or formed, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of their states of incorporation or formation. Each Borrower has the power and authority to execute and deliver the Loan Documents to which any of them are parties and to perform their obligations thereunder.

The execution and delivery by each Borrower of the Loan Documents to which such Borrower is a party, and the performance by them of their obligations thereunder, have been duly and properly authorized by all requisite corporate action of each such Borrower. The Loan Documents to which any Borrower is a party have been duly executed and delivered by such Borrower.

Assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery thereof by the other parties thereto, if any, the Loan Documents to which any Borrower is a party constitute valid and binding obligations of such Borrower and are enforceable against such Borrower in accordance with their terms.

The execution and delivery of the Loan Documents to which any Borrower is a party by such Borrower do not, and the performance by such Borrower of their respective obligations thereunder will not, (i) violate any provision of such Borrower’s Certificate of Incorporation or Certificate of Formation, as applicable, (ii) violate any provision of such Borrower’s By-laws or Operating Agreement, as applicable, or (iii) result in the creation of any Lien under any agreement or instrument known to us to which such Borrower is a party or by which its property may be bound (other than the Loan Documents).

The execution and delivery by any Borrower of the Loan Documents to which such Borrower is a party do not, and the performance of such Borrower’s obligations thereunder will not, to our knowledge, violate (i) any law covered by this opinion applicable to such Borrower, or (ii) any applicable order, writ, injunction, or decree of any court, administrative agency or other governmental authority known to us.

No approval, authorization, consent, review, adjudication or order of any state or federal authority, which has not been obtained by any Borrower, is required to be obtained by such Borrower in connection with the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents to which such Borrower is a party, or in connection with the performance of such Borrower’s obligations thereunder, except for such filings and other actions as may be required to perfect any Lien which any such agreement purports to create.

To our knowledge, there are no judgments outstanding against any Borrower nor is there any pending litigation or proceeding to which such Borrower is a named party which places into question the validity or enforceability, or seeks to enjoin the performance, of the Loan Documents to which such Borrower is a party.

No Borrower is an “investment company” registered or required to be registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

The opinions expressed herein are matters of professional judgment, are not a guarantee of result and are effective only as of the date hereof. We do not undertake to advise you of any matter within the scope of this letter that comes to our attention after the date of this letter and disclaim any responsibility to advise you of any future changes in law or fact that may affect the opinions set forth herein. We express no opinion other than as hereinbefore expressly set forth. No expansion of the opinions expressed herein may or should be made by implication or otherwise. This opinion is being furnished only in connection with the transaction described above and may not be relied on for any other purpose or by anyone else without our prior written consent.

Very truly yours,

BRL Law Group LLC*

Pledgor hereby authorizes Agent to attach each Pledge Amendment to this Agreement and agrees that all Pledged Shares or Pledged Interests listed on any Pledge Amendment delivered to Agent shall for all purposes hereunder be considered Pledged Collateral.

7. Pledgor’s Rights. As long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and until written notice shall be given to Pledgor in accordance with Section 8(a) hereof:

(a) Pledgor shall have the right, from time to time, to vote and give consents with respect to the Pledged Collateral, or any part thereof for all purposes not inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement, the Loan Agreement, and any other Ancillary Agreement; provided, however, that no vote shall be cast, and no consent shall be given or action taken, which would have the effect of impairing the position or interest of Agent in respect of the Pledged Collateral or which would authorize or effect (except as and to the extent expressly permitted by the Loan Agreement) (i) the dissolution or liquidation, in whole or in part, of any of the Subsidiaries, (ii) the consolidation or merger of any of the Subsidiaries with any other Person, (iii) the sale, disposition or encumbrance of all or substantially all of the assets of any of the Borrowers, (iv) any change in the authorized number of shares, the stated capital or the authorized share capital of any of the Subsidiaries or the issuance of any additional shares of any Borrower’s stock or (v) the alteration of the voting rights with respect to the stock of any of the Subsidiaries;

(b) (i) Pledgor shall be entitled, from time to time, to collect and receive for its own use all cash dividends paid in respect of the Pledged Collateral to the extent not in violation of the Loan Agreement other than any and all (A) dividends paid or payable other than in cash in respect of, and instruments and other property received, receivable or otherwise distributed in respect of, or in exchange for, any Pledged Collateral, (B) dividends and other distributions paid or payable in cash in respect of any Pledged Collateral in connection with a partial or total liquidation or dissolution and (C) cash paid, payable or otherwise distributed in redemption of, or in exchange for, any Pledged Collateral; provided, however, that until actually paid, all rights to such distributions shall remain subject to the Lien created by this Agreement and

(ii) all dividends (other than such cash dividends as are permitted to be paid to Pledgor in accordance with clause (i) above) and all other distributions in respect of any of the Pledged Collateral of Pledgor, whenever paid or made, shall be delivered to Agent to hold as Pledged Collateral and shall, if received by Pledgor, be received in trust for the benefit of Agent, for its benefit and the ratable benefit the Lenders, be segregated from the other property or funds of Pledgor, and be forthwith delivered to Agent as Pledged Collateral in the same form as so received (with any necessary indorsement).

8. Defaults and Remedies.

(a) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (as defined in the Loan Agreement) and during the continuation of such Event of Default, then on or at any time after such declaration (provided that such declaration is not rescinded by the Agent) and upon written notice to Pledgor, Agent (personally or through an agent) is hereby authorized and empowered to transfer and register in its name or in the name of its nominee the whole or any part of the Pledged Collateral, to exchange certificates or instruments representing or evidencing Pledged Shares or Pledged Interests for certificates or instruments of smaller or larger denominations, to exercise the voting and all other rights as a stockholder with respect thereto, to collect and receive all cash dividends and other distributions made thereon, to sell in one or more sales after ten (10) days’ notice of the time and place of any public sale or of the time after which a private sale is to take place (which notice Pledgor agrees is commercially reasonable) the whole or any part of the Pledged Collateral and to otherwise act with respect to the Pledged Collateral as though Agent was the outright owner thereof, and Pledgor hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints Agent as the proxy and attorney-in-fact of Pledgor, with full power of substitution to do so, and which appointment shall remain in effect until the Liabilities are indefeasibly paid in full; provided, however, Agent shall not have any duty to exercise any such right or to preserve the same and shall not be liable for any failure to do so or for any delay in doing so. Any sale shall be made at a public or private sale at Agent’s place of business, or at any place to be named in the notice of sale, either for cash or upon credit or for future delivery at such price as Agent may deem fair, and Agent or any Lender may be the purchaser of the whole or any part of the Pledged Collateral so sold and hold the same thereafter in its own right free from any claim of Pledgor or any right of redemption. Each sale shall be made to the highest bidder, but Agent reserves the right to reject any and all bids at such sale which, in its discretion, it shall deem inadequate. Demands of performance, except as otherwise herein specifically provided for, notices of sale, advertisements and the presence of property at sale are hereby waived and any sale hereunder may be conducted by an auctioneer or any officer or agent of Agent.

(b) If, at the original time or times appointed for the sale of the whole or any part of the Pledged Collateral, the highest bid, if there be but one sale, shall be inadequate to discharge in full all the Secured Liabilities, or if the Pledged Collateral be offered for sale in lots, if at any of such sales, the highest bid for the lot offered for sale would indicate to Agent, in its discretion, the

unlikelihood of the proceeds of the sales of the whole of the Pledged Collateral being sufficient to discharge all the Secured Liabilities, Agent may, on one or more occasions and in its discretion, postpone any of said sales by public announcement at the time of sale or the time of previous postponement of sale, and no other notice of such postponement or postponements of sale need be given, any other notice being hereby waived; provided, however, that any sale or sales made after such postponement shall be after ten (10) days’ notice to Pledgor.

(c) The proceeds of any sale, disposition or other realization upon all or any part of the Pledged Collateral shall be distributed by Agent, for the benefit of Agent and Lenders, upon receipt, in the following order of priorities.

First, to Agent in an amount sufficient to pay in full the expenses of Agent in connection with such sale, disposition or other realization, including all expenses, liabilities and advances incurred or made by Agent in connection therewith, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses;

Second, in accordance with Section 8.7 of the Loan Agreement; and

Third, upon indefeasible payment in full of all of the Secured Liabilities, to Pledgor or its representatives or to whomsoever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same, or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct.

(d) If, at any time when Agent shall determine to exercise its right to sell the whole or any part of the Pledged Collateral hereunder, such Pledged Collateral or the part thereof to be sold shall not, for any reason whatsoever, be effectively registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (or any similar statute then in effect) (the “Act”), Agent may, in its discretion (subject only to applicable requirements of law), sell such Pledged Collateral or part thereof by private sale in such manner and under such circumstances as Agent may deem necessary or advisable. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in any such event, Agent in its discretion (i) may, in accordance with applicable securities laws, proceed to make such private sale notwithstanding that a registration statement for the purpose of registering such Pledged Collateral or part thereof could be or shall have been filed under said Act (or similar statute), (ii) may approach and negotiate with a single possible purchaser to effect such sale and (iii) may restrict such sale to a purchaser who will represent and agree that such purchaser is purchasing for its own account, for investment and not with a view to the distribution or sale of such Pledged Collateral or part thereof. In addition to a private sale as provided above in this Section 8, if any of the Pledged Collateral shall not be freely distributable to the public without registration under the Act (or similar statute) at the time of any proposed sale pursuant to this Section 8, then Agent shall not be required to effect such registration or cause the same to be effected but, in its discretion (subject only to applicable requirements of law), may require that any sale hereunder (including a sale at auction) be conducted subject to restrictions (i) as to the financial sophistication and ability of any Person permitted to bid or purchase at any such sale, (ii) as to the content of legends to be placed upon any certificates representing the Pledged Collateral sold in such sale, including

restrictions on future transfer thereof, (iii) as to the representations required to be made by each Person bidding or purchasing at such sale relating to that Person’s access to financial information about Pledgor and such Person’s intentions as to the holding of the Pledged Collateral so sold for investment for its own account and not with a view to the distribution thereof and (iv) as to such other matters as Agent may, in its discretion, deem necessary or appropriate in order that such sale (notwithstanding any failure so to register) may be effected in compliance with the Bankruptcy Code and other laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights and the Act and all applicable state securities laws.

(e) Pledgor acknowledges that notwithstanding the legal availability of a private sale or a sale subject to the restrictions described above in paragraph (d), Agent may, in its discretion, elect to register any or all the Pledged Collateral under the Act (or any applicable state securities law) in accordance with its rights hereunder. Pledgor, however, recognizes that Agent may be unable to effect a public sale of any or all the Pledged Collateral and may be compelled to resort to one or more private sales thereof. Pledgor also acknowledges that any such private sale may result in prices and other terms less favorable to the seller than if such sale were a public sale and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such private sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner. Agent shall be under no obligation to delay a sale of any of the Pledged Collateral for the period of time necessary to permit the registrant to register such securities for public sale under the Act, or under applicable state securities laws, even if Pledgor would agree to do so.

(f) Pledgor agrees to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law that following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default it will not at any time plead, claim or take the benefit of any appraisal, valuation, stay, extension, moratorium or redemption law now or hereafter in force in order to prevent or delay the enforcement of this Agreement, or the absolute sale of the whole or any part of the Pledged Collateral or the possession thereof by any purchaser at any sale hereunder, and Pledgor waives the benefit of all such laws to the extent it lawfully may do so. Pledgor agrees that it will not interfere with any right, power and remedy of Agent provided for in this Agreement or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise, or the exercise or beginning of the exercise by Agent of any one or more of such rights, powers or remedies. No failure or delay on the part of Agent to exercise any such right, power or remedy and no notice or demand which may be given to or made upon Pledgor by Agent with respect to any such remedies shall operate as a waiver thereof, or limit or impair Agent’s right to take any action or to exercise any power or remedy hereunder, without notice or demand, or prejudice its rights as against Pledgor in any respect.

9. Waiver. No delay on Agent’s part in exercising any power of sale, Lien, option or other right hereunder, and no notice or demand which may be given to or made upon Pledgor by Agent with respect to any power of sale, Lien, option or other right hereunder, shall constitute a waiver thereof, or limit or impair Agent’s right to take any action or to exercise any power of sale, Lien, option, or any other right hereunder, without notice or demand, or prejudice Agent’s rights as against Pledgor in any respect.

10. Assignment. Agent or any Lender may assign, indorse or transfer any instrument evidencing all or any part of the Secured Liabilities as provided in, and in accordance with, the Loan Agreement, and the holder of such instrument shall be entitled to the benefits of this Agreement.

11. Termination. Upon the indefeasible payment in full of all Secured Liabilities and termination of the Commitments under the Loan Agreement, Agent shall deliver to Pledgor the Pledged Collateral pledged by Pledgor at the time subject to this Agreement and all instruments of assignment executed in connection therewith, free and clear of the Liens hereof and, except as otherwise provided herein, all of Pledgor’s obligations hereunder shall at such time terminate.

12. Lien Absolute. All rights of Agent and Lenders hereunder, and all obligations of Pledgor hereunder, shall be absolute and unconditional irrespective of:

(a) any lack of validity or enforceability of the Loan Agreement, the Notes, any other Ancillary Agreements or any other agreement or instrument governing or evidencing any Secured Liabilities;

(b) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any part of the Secured Liabilities, or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to any departure from the Loan Agreement, the Notes, any other Ancillary Agreement or any other agreement or instrument governing or evidencing any Secured Liabilities;

(c) any exchange, release or non-perfection of any other collateral, or any release or amendment or waiver of or consent to departure from any guaranty, for all or any of the Secured Liabilities; or

(d) any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, Pledgor.

13. Release. Pledgor consents and agrees that Agent and Lenders may at any time, or from time to time, in their discretion (a) renew, extend or change the time of payment, and/or the manner, place or terms of payment of all or any part of the Secured Liabilities and (b) exchange, release and/or surrender all or any of the Pledged Collateral, or any part thereof, by whomsoever deposited, which is now or may hereafter be held by Agent in connection with all or any of the Secured Liabilities; all in such manner and upon such terms as Agent and Lenders may deem proper, and without notice to or further assent from Pledgor, it being hereby agreed that Pledgor shall be and remain bound upon this Agreement, irrespective of the value or condition of any of the Pledged Collateral, and notwithstanding any such change, exchange, settlement, compromise, surrender, release, renewal or extension, and notwithstanding also that the Secured Liabilities may, at any time, exceed the aggregate principal amount thereof set forth in the Loan Agreement, or any other agreement governing any Secured Liabilities. Pledgor hereby waives notice of acceptance of this Agreement,

and also presentment, demand, protest and notice of dishonor of any and all of the Secured Liabilities, and promptness in commencing suit against any party hereto or liable hereon, and in giving any notice to or of making any claim or demand hereunder upon Pledgor. No act or omission of any kind on Agent’s part shall in any event affect or impair this Agreement.

14. Reinstatement. This Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective should any petition be filed by or against Pledgor or any Subsidiary for liquidation or reorganization, should Pledgor or any Subsidiary become insolvent or make an assignment for the benefit of creditors or should a receiver or trustee be appointed for all or any significant part of Pledgor’s or any of the Subsidiaries’ assets, and shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment and performance of the Secured Liabilities, or any part thereof, is, pursuant to applicable law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned by any obligee of the Secured Liabilities, whether as a “voidable preference,” “fraudulent conveyance” or otherwise, all as though such payment or performance had not been made. In the event that any payment, or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, the Secured Liabilities shall be reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned.

15. Miscellaneous.

(a) Agent may execute any of its duties hereunder by or through agents or employees and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to its duties hereunder.

(b) Pledgor agrees to promptly reimburse Agent for actual out-of-pocket expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable counsel fees, incurred by Agent in connection with the administration and enforcement of this Agreement.

(c) Neither Agent nor any Lender nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents or counsel shall be liable for any action lawfully taken or omitted to be taken by it or them hereunder or in connection herewith, except for its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct.

(d) THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE BINDING UPON PLEDGOR AND ITS SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS, AND SHALL INURE TO THE BENEFIT OF, AND BE ENFORCEABLE BY, AGENT, FOR ITS BENEFIT AND THE RATABLE BENEFIT OF THE LENDERS, AND THEIR SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS, AND SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE INTERNAL LAWS IN EFFECT IN THE STATE OF ILLINOIS WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICT OF LAWS BUT GIVING EFFECT TO FEDERAL LAWS APPLICABLE TO NATIONAL BANKS, AND NONE OF THE TERMS OR PROVISIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT MAY BE WAIVED, ALTERED, MODIFIED OR AMENDED EXCEPT IN WRITING DULY SIGNED FOR AND ON BEHALF OF AGENT AND PLEDGOR.

16. Severability. If for any reason any provision or provisions hereof are determined to be invalid and contrary to any existing or future law, such invalidity shall not impair or affect the operation of those portions of this Agreement which are valid.

17. Notices. Except as otherwise provided herein, whenever it is provided herein that any notice, demand, request, consent, approval, declaration or other communication shall or may be given to or served upon any of the parties by any other party, or whenever any of the parties desires to give or serve upon any other a communication with respect to this Agreement, each such notice, demand, request, consent, approval, declaration or other communication shall be in writing and either shall be delivered in person with receipt acknowledged or sent by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, or by telecopy and confirmed by telecopy answerback addressed as follows:

Form of Amended and Restated Intercreditor (Subordination) Agreement

AMENDED AND RESTATED INTERCREDITOR (SUBORDINATION) AGREEMENT

THIS AMENDED AND RESTATED INTERCREDITOR (SUBORDINATION) AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made as of October , 2005 by and among CMGI, INC., a Delaware corporation (“Creditor”), CITIZENS BANK OF MASSACHUSETTS, as a Lender, LASALLE BANK NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, as a Lender and as agent for the Lenders (herein, in such capacity, called the “Agent”) and MODUSLINK CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation (“Obligor”).

WHEREAS, Obligor is indebted to Creditor pursuant to (i) that certain Secured Demand Note dated as of August 2, 2004 executed by Obligor in favor of Creditor in the principal amount of $25,000,000, (ii) that certain Secured Promissory Note dated as of December , 2004 executed by Obligor in favor of Creditor in the principal amount of $10,000,000 and (iii) that certain Secured Promissory Note dated as of December , 2004 executed by Obligor in favor of Creditor in the principal amount of $17,151,705 (collectively, the “CMGI Notes”);

WHEREAS, as security for Obligor’s obligations to Creditor under the CMGI Notes, Obligor granted a security interest in all of its assets to Creditor pursuant to that certain Security Agreement dated as of August 2, 2004 by and between Obligor and Creditor, as amended (the “Security Agreement”);

WHEREAS, Obligor, Agent and the Lenders party thereto are party to that certain Second Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement dated as of even date herewith (as amended, modified or supplemented from time to time, and together with all Ancillary Documents executed and delivered pursuant thereto, the “Loan Agreement”);

WHEREAS, Agent is requiring, as a condition to maintaining the Loans and for continuing to issue Letters of Credit pursuant to the Loan Agreement, that Creditor and Obligor execute and deliver this Agreement;

WHEREAS, Creditor deems the ongoing extension of credit to Borrowers pursuant to the Loan Agreement necessary to the conduct and operation of Obligor’s business and therefore beneficial to its interest as a shareholder of Obligor; and

WHEREAS, the term “Creditor Obligations” shall mean Obligor’s now existing and hereafter arising indebtedness, obligations, and liabilities to Creditor arising out of or under (i) the CMGI Notes, including any amendments, extensions and modifications thereto, (ii) the Security Agreement, including any amendments, extensions and modifications thereto and (iii) all other indebtedness or obligations of Obligor to Creditor (including, without limitation, all debts, claims, indebtedness and all interest thereon), however evidenced or incurred.

NOW, THEREFORE, to induce Lenders to enter into the Loan Agreement and in consideration for making the Loans and for issuing the Letters of Credit pursuant to the Loan Agreement, the extension of credit to Obligor in the future and for other valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the undersigned do hereby agree as follows:

1. Creditor hereby subordinates the Creditor Obligations to (i) any and all sums, debts, demands, claims, liabilities or causes of action for which Obligor may be liable to the Lenders pursuant to the Loan Agreement and pursuant to any note, security agreement, guaranty, pledge agreement or other instrument or document executed pursuant thereto or in connection therewith, and all other liabilities of Obligor to Lenders including, but not limited to, all post petition interest (collectively called the “Secured Liabilities”).

2. Creditor hereby subordinates all security interests, liens, encumbrances and claims which in any way secure the Creditor Obligations, pursuant to the Security Agreement or otherwise (herein collectively called the “Creditor Collateral”), to all security interests, liens, encumbrances and claims which in any way secure the payment of the Secured Liabilities, specifically including but not limited to the security interests granted to Agent for its benefit and for the benefit of Lenders in the Loan Agreement, as the same may be modified or amended (herein collectively called the “Agent Collateral”). Creditor agrees that until the Secured Liabilities are paid in full, Creditor will not in any way, manner or respect, assert or seek to enforce by legal proceedings or other proceedings or actions any of its liens, mortgages, security interests or other encumbrances on the Creditor Collateral. Creditor agrees that this subordination and the priority established hereby shall apply regardless of the time or order of attachment or perfection of such security interests, liens, encumbrances or claims or the granting or failure to give notice thereof.

3. Creditor hereby instructs Obligor not to pay the Creditor Obligations in whole or in part, and Creditor agrees not to accept payment of the Creditor Obligations, including interest thereon, or any part thereof or seek to enforce against Obligor the Creditor Obligations or Creditor’s security interests, liens, encumbrances or claims on the Creditor Collateral, unless and until the Agent has notified Creditor, in writing, that the Secured Liabilities have been paid in full. The prohibition on payments provided for in this Section 3 shall be effective regardless of whether such payments are regularly scheduled, due at maturity or upon demand or due upon acceleration or otherwise. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Obligor may make, and Creditor may accept, all payments made on account of the Creditor Obligations which exist as of the date hereof if no Default or Event of Default exists and, after giving effect to any such payment to Creditor, Obligor would have a positive cash flow as reflected on the Financials determined on a consolidated basis in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied.

4. (a) Creditor agrees to hold in trust for Agent, for its benefit and the benefit of Lenders, and promptly turn over to Agent any sum or sums at any time paid, or received by Creditor in violation of the terms of this Agreement and to reimburse Agent for all costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred by Agent in the course of collecting the sum or sums should Creditor fail to voluntarily turn over same to Agent. In the event of any distribution, division or application, partial or complete, voluntary or involuntary, by operation of law or otherwise, of all or any part of the assets of Obligor or the proceeds thereof, in whatever form to creditors of

Obligor occurring by reason of the liquidation, dissolution or other winding up of Obligor or by reason of any execution sale, receivership, insolvency or bankruptcy proceedings or assignments for the benefit of creditors or proceedings for reorganization or readjustment of Obligor or its properties, then and in such event, the Secured Liabilities shall first be paid in full before any payment is made upon the Creditor Obligations, and any payment or distribution of any kind or character either in cash, property or securities which shall be payable or deliverable upon or in respect of the Creditor Obligations and interest thereon shall be paid or delivered directly to Agent for application in payment of the amounts then due on the Secured Liabilities until the Secured Liabilities have been paid in full.

(b) In order to enable Agent to enforce its rights, for its benefit and for the benefit of Lenders, under the preceding Section 4(a) in any action or proceedings, Agent is hereby irrevocably authorized and empowered in its discretion to make and present for or on behalf of Creditor such proof of claim or claims against Obligor on account of the Creditor Obligations as Agent may deem expedient and proper; to vote such claims in any such proceedings; to receive and collect any and all dividends or other payments or disbursements made thereon in whatever form the same may be paid or issued; and to apply same on account of the Secured Liabilities. Creditor agrees to and does hereby assign all such claims to Agent, and Creditor further agrees to execute such instruments as may be required by Agent to enable it to enforce any and all such claims and collect any and all dividends or other payments or disbursements that may be made on account of the Creditor Obligations.

5. Creditor represents and warrants to Agent that Creditor has not assigned or transferred the Creditor Obligations or Creditor Collateral, or any interest therein, to any person, firm, association, corporation or party, that Creditor will make no such assignment or transfer and that all agreements, instruments and documents evidencing the Creditor Obligations and Creditor Collateral, including, without limitation, the CMGI Notes and the Security Agreement, will be endorsed with a proper notice of this Agreement. Creditor shall have the right to assign the Creditor Obligations provided that any such assignment shall only be made upon prior written consent of Agent, and shall be made expressly subject to the rights of the Agent hereunder conspicuously noted in writing on any such assignment, which assignment shall be in form and substance acceptable to Agent. Creditor agrees to mark the CMGI Notes with the following legend:

“This note is subordinated to all indebtedness now or hereafter owed by maker to LaSalle Bank National Association, as Agent, as provided in that certain Amended and Restated Intercreditor (Subordination) Agreement dated October , 2005.”

6. Agent is hereby authorized by Creditor to: (a) renew, compromise, extend or otherwise change the time of payment or any other terms of the Secured Liabilities under the Loan Agreement; (b) exchange, enforce, waive or release any security therefor; (c) apply such security and direct the order or manner of sale thereof in such manner as the Agent may in its sole discretion

determine; or (d) amend and restate the Loan Agreement, all without notice to Creditor and without affecting the subordination provided by this Agreement; provided that Agent shall not accelerate the time of payment of the Secured Liabilities unless otherwise permitted by the Loan Agreement or related documents or increase the rate of interest payable thereon or any part thereof other than as permitted in the Loan Agreement or related documents.

7. This Agreement shall continue in full force and effect until (i) Creditor shall receive from Agent notice in writing of its termination after the payment in full of the entire Secured Liabilities and (ii) SalesLink is not indebted in any manner to any Lender and the Commitments have been terminated. Creditor agrees that it will not challenge the liens and security interests of the Agent for its benefit and the benefit of the Lenders securing payment of the Secured Liabilities and that as between the Agent, Lenders and Creditor, the terms of this Agreement shall govern even if part or all of the Secured Liabilities or the liens or security interests securing payment thereof are avoided, disallowed, set aside or otherwise invalidated in any judicial proceeding or otherwise.

8. All notices, payments, requests, reports, information and demands which any party may desire or may be required to give or make to any other party shall be given or made upon such party in writing by hand delivery, by facsimile or by the deposit in the United States mail, postage prepaid, certified or registered addressed as follows:

Amended and Restated Intercreditor (Subordination) Agreement

Exhibit F (§ 2.11C))

Form of Landlord Waiver

LANDLORD’S WAIVER AND CONSENT

THIS LANDLORD’S WAIVER AND CONSENT (“Waiver and Consent”) is made and entered into as of , 2005 by and between (“Landlord”) and (“Tenant”).

A. Landlord is the owner of certain real property commonly known as (the “Premises”).

B. Tenant entered into that certain lease with Landlord dated , as amended by , to lease the Premises (the “Lease”).

C. Tenant and other borrowers entered into a Second Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement with LaSalle Bank National Association (“Agent”) and the lenders party thereto, dated October , 2005 (the “Loan Agreement”), pursuant to which Agent and the other lenders agreed to make extensions of credit to Tenant and other borrowers and granted to Agent a security interest in and lien upon the general business assets of Tenant and the other borrowers.

D. As a condition to making such extensions of credit, Tenant agreed to cause Landlord to enter into this Waiver and Consent.

E. Landlord will benefit from this Waiver and Consent as a result of Tenant’s continued tenancy at the Premises.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of any financial accommodations extended by Agent to Tenant, and other good and valuable consideration the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:

1. Landlord acknowledges the validity of Agent’s security interest in the Collateral (as such term is defined in the Loan Agreement) located on the Premises and, until such time as the obligations of Tenant to Agent are indefeasibly paid in full, Landlord hereby subordinates any interest in the Collateral it may have and agrees not to assert any landlord lien, right of distraint or other claim against the Collateral for any reason, including Collateral consisting of trade fixtures.

2. Landlord represents and warrants that: (i) a true and correct copy of the Lease is attached hereto as Exhibit A, (ii) the Lease, as attached, is in full force and effect, (iii) the Lease has not been modified, changed, altered, assigned, supplemented or amended in any respect and (iv) Landlord is not aware of any existing default by Tenant under the Lease.

3. Landlord will provide Agent with written notice of any default by Tenant under the Lease (a “Default Notice”). Agent shall have at least fifteen (15) days following receipt of such Default Notice to cure such default, but Agent shall not be under any obligation to cure any default by Tenant under the Lease. No action by Agent pursuant to this Waiver and Consent shall be deemed to be an assumption by Agent of any obligation under the Lease and, except as provided in paragraphs 5, 6 and 7 below, Agent shall not have any obligation to Landlord.

4. Prior to a termination of the Lease, Agent or its representatives or invitees may enter upon the Premises at any time without any interference by Landlord to inspect or remove any or all of the Collateral or exercise of its other rights under the Loan Agreement or the Uniform Commercial Code of Illinois (the “UCC”), including, without limitation, conduct a private sale pursuant to the provisions of paragraph 6 below.

5. Upon a termination of the Lease, Landlord will permit Agent and its representatives and invitees to occupy and remain on the Premises and exercise its rights under the Loan Agreement or under the UCC; provided, that (a) such period of occupation (the “Disposition Period”) shall not exceed up to ninety (90) days following receipt by Agent of a Default Notice or, if the Lease has expired by its own terms (absent a default thereunder), up to thirty (30) days following Agent’s receipt of written notice of such expiration, (b) for the actual period of occupancy by Agent, Agent will pay to Landlord the basic rent due under the Lease pro-rated on a per diem basis determined on a 30-day month, and shall provide and retain liability and property insurance coverage, electricity and heat to the extent required by the Lease and (c) such amounts paid by Agent to Landlord shall exclude any rent adjustments, indemnity payments or similar amount for which Tenant remains liable under the Lease for default, holdover status or other similar charges. If any injunction or stay is issued that prohibits Agent form removing the Collateral, the commencement of the Disposition Period will be deferred until such injunction or stay is lifted or removed.

6. During any Disposition Period, (a) Agent and its representatives and invitees may inspect, repossess, remove and other wise deal with the Collateral, and Agent may advertise and conduct private sales of the Collateral at the Premises, in each case without interference by Landlord or liability of Agent to Landlord and (b) Agent shall make the Premises available for inspection by Landlord and prospective tenants and shall cooperate in Landlord’s reasonable efforts to re-lease the Premises. If Agent conducts a private sale of the Collateral at the Premises, Agent shall use reasonable efforts to notify Landlord first and to hold such sale in a manner which would not unduly disrupt Landlord’s or any other tenant’s use of the Premises.

7. Agent shall promptly repair, at Agent’s expense, or reimburse Landlord for any physical damage to the Premises actually caused by the conduct of such sale and any removal of Collateral by or through Agent (ordinary wear and tear excluded). Agent shall not be liable for any diminution in value of the Premises caused by the absence of Collateral removed, and Agent shall not have any duty or obligation to remove or dispose of any Collateral left on the Premises by Tenant.

8. All notices hereunder shall be in writing to the respective parties and the addresses set forth on the signature page or at such other address as the receiving party shall designate in writing.

-2-

9. This Waiver and Consent may be executed in any number of several counterparts, shall be governed and controlled by, and interpreted under, the internal laws of the State of Illinois, and shall inure to the benefit of Agent and its successors and assigns and shall be binding upon Landlord and its successors and assigns (including any transferees of the Premises).
