"In connection with the arrangement of such a substitute
Lender, the Defaulting Lender shall have no right to refuse to be replaced

than Bank Product Obligations) (including an assumption of its Pro Rata Share of
the Risk Participation Liability) without any premium or penalty of any kind

Commitment of such Defaulting Lender shall not be deemed to constitute a waiver
of any of the Lender Groups' or Borrowers' rights or remedies against any such
Defaulting Lender arising out of or in relation to such failure to fund."
(e) Section 2.3(c)(i) of the Loan Agreement is hereby amended and
restated in its entirety as follows:
"(i) Agent hereby is authorized by Borrowers and the Lenders,
from time to time in Agent's sole discretion, (1) after the occurrence and

that Agent, in its Permitted Discretion deems necessary or desirable (A) to
preserve or protect the Collateral, or any portion thereof, (B) to enhance the
likelihood of repayment of the Obligations (other than the Bank Product
Obligations), or (C) to pay any other amount chargeable to Borrowers pursuant to
the terms of this Agreement, including Lender Group Expenses and the costs,

this Section 2.3(c), the aggregate principal amount of Agent Advances
outstanding at any one time, when taken together with the aggregate principal
amount of Overadvances made in accordance with Section 2.3(g) outstanding at any
time, shall not exceed an amount equal to the lesser of (x) 10% of the Borrowing
Base then in effect and (y) $2,000,000. Each Agent Advance is an Advance
hereunder and shall be subject to all the terms and conditions applicable to
other Advances, except that all payments thereon shall be payable to Agent
solely for its own account (and for the account of the holder of any
participation interest with respect to such Agent Advance)."
(f) Section 2.4(b)(i) of the Loan Agreement is hereby amended and
restated in its entirety as follows:
"(i) Except as otherwise provided with respect to Defaulting
Lenders and except as otherwise provided in the Loan Documents (including letter
agreements between Agent and individual Lenders), aggregate principal and
interest payments shall be apportioned ratably among the Lenders (according to
the unpaid principal balance of the Obligations to which such payments relate
held by each Lender) and payments of fees and expenses (other than fees or
expenses that are for Agent's separate account, after giving effect to any
letter agreements between Agent and individual Lenders) shall be apportioned
ratably among the Lenders having a Pro Rata Share of the type of Commitment or
Obligation to which a particular payment relates. All payments shall be remitted
to Agent and all such payments not relating to principal or interest of specific
Obligations (other than payments constituting the payment of specific fees), and
all proceeds of Accounts or other Collateral received by Agent, shall be applied
as follows:
A. first, to pay any Lender Group Expenses then due
to Agent under the Loan Documents, until paid in full,
B. second, to pay any Lender Group Expenses then due
to the Lenders under the Loan Documents, on a ratable basis, until paid in full,

Advances, until paid in full,

5
G. seventh, so long as no Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing or, if an Event of Default has occurred and is

Loan Amount, including the Term Loan B PIK Amount, is deferred to item
"fourteenth" below),
H. eighth, to pay the principal of all Agent Advances
until paid in full,

occurred and is continuing, the priority of payment of such scheduled principal
payments is deferred to item "fifteenth" below),
J. tenth, so long as no Event of Default has occurred
and is continuing, and at Agent's election (which election Agent agrees will not
be made if an Overadvance would be created thereby), to pay amounts then due and
owing by Borrower or its Subsidiaries in respect of Bank Products, until paid in
full,
K. eleventh, so long as no Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing, to pay the principal of all Advances until paid in
full,

contemplation of, the subject Event of Default until Borrower's and its
Subsidiaries' obligations in respect of the then extant Bank Products have been
paid in full or the cash collateral amount has been exhausted,
M. thirteenth, if an Event of Default has occurred

Obligations (other than Bank Product Obligations) owed by Borrowers to the
Lender Group pursuant to Sections 2.1 and 2.12 is greater than either the Dollar
or percentage limitations set forth in Sections 2.1 or 2.12, or (ii) the
Obligations (other than Bank Product Obligations) are greater than 130% of
Borrowers' Collections for the immediately preceding 90-day period (in each
case, an "Overadvance"), in each case, Borrowers immediately shall pay to Agent,
in cash, the amount of such excess, which amount shall be used by Agent to
reduce the Obligations in accordance with the priorities set forth in Section
2.4(b). In addition, Borrowers hereby promise to pay the Obligations (including
principal, interest, fees, costs, and expenses) in Dollars in full to the Lender
Group as and when due and payable under the terms of this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents."
(h) Section 2.6(a)(i) of the Loan Agreement is hereby amended and

respect of Bank Products up to the amount of the then extant Bank Products
Reserve) to Borrowers' Loan Account, which amounts thereafter constitute
Obligations hereunder and shall accrue interest at the rate then applicable
thereto. Any interest not paid when due shall be compounded by being charged to
Borrowers' Loan Account and shall thereafter constitute Obligations hereunder
and shall accrue interest at the rate then applicable thereto."

Borrowers' account, the Letters of Credit issued by Issuing Lender for
Borrowers' account, and with all other payment Obligations hereunder or under
the other Loan Documents (except for Bank Product Obligations), including,
accrued interest, fees and expenses, and Lender Group Expenses. In accordance
with Section 2.8, the Loan Account will be credited with all payments received
by Agent from Borrowers or for Borrowers' account, including all amounts
received in the Agent's Account from any Cash Management Bank. Agent shall
render statements regarding the Loan Account to Administrative Borrower,
including principal, interest, fees, and including an itemization of all charges
and expenses constituting Lender Group Expenses owing, and such statements shall
be conclusively presumed to be correct and accurate and constitute an account
stated between Borrowers and the Lender Group unless, within 30 days after
receipt thereof by Administrative Borrower, Administrative Borrower shall
deliver to Agent written objection thereto describing the error or errors
contained in any such statements."
(l) Section 3.5 of the Loan Agreement is hereby amended and restated in
its entirety as follows:
"3.5 EFFECT OF TERMINATION. On the date of termination of this
Agreement, all Obligations (including contingent reimbursement obligations of
Borrowers with respect to any outstanding Letters of Credit and including all
Bank Products Obligations) immediately shall become due and payable without
notice or demand (including (a) either (i) providing cash collateral to be held
by Agent for the benefit of those Lenders with a Revolver Commitment in an
amount equal to 105% of the then extant Letter of Credit Usage, or (ii) causing
the original Letters of Credit to be returned to the Issuing Lender, and (b)
providing cash collateral to be held by Agent for the benefit of ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo or
its Affiliates with respect to the then extant Bank Products Obligations). No
termination of this Agreement, however, shall relieve or discharge Parent or
Borrowers of their duties, Obligations, or covenants hereunder and the Agent's
Liens in the Collateral shall remain in effect until all Obligations have been
fully and finally discharged and the Lender Group's obligations to provide
additional credit hereunder have been terminated. When this Agreement has been
8
terminated and all of the Obligations have been fully and finally discharged and
the Lender Group's obligations to provide additional credit under the Loan
Documents have been terminated irrevocably, Agent will, at Borrowers' sole
expense, execute and deliver any UCC termination statements, lien releases,
mortgage releases, re-assignments of trademarks, discharges of security
interests, and other similar discharge or release documents (and, if applicable,
in recordable form) as are reasonably necessary to release, as of record, the
Agent's Liens and all notices of security interests and liens previously filed
by Agent with respect to the Obligations."
(m) Section 3.6 of the Loan Agreement is hereby amended and restated in
its entirety as follows:
"3.6 EARLY TERMINATION BY BORROWERS. Borrowers have the
option, at any time upon 60 days prior written notice by Administrative Borrower
to Agent, to terminate this Agreement by paying to Agent, for the benefit of the
Lender Group, in cash, the Obligations (including (a) either (i) providing cash
collateral to be held by Agent for the benefit of those Lenders with a Revolver
Commitment in an amount equal to 105% of the then extant Letter of Credit Usage,
or (ii) causing the original Letters of Credit to be returned to the Issuing
Lender, and (b) providing cash collateral to be held by Agent for the benefit of
▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo or its Affiliates with respect to the then extant Bank Products
Obligations), in full, together with the Applicable Prepayment Premium (to be
allocated based upon letter agreements between Agent and individual Lenders). If
Administrative Borrower has sent a notice of termination pursuant to the
provisions of this Section, then the Commitments shall terminate and Borrowers
shall be obligated to repay the Obligations (including (x) either (i) providing
cash collateral to be held by Agent for the benefit of those Lenders with a
Revolver Commitment in an amount equal to 105% of the then extant Letter of
Credit Usage, or (ii) causing the original Letters of Credit to be returned to
the Issuing Lender, and (y) providing cash collateral to be held by Agent for
the benefit of ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo or its Affiliates with respect to the then extant
Bank Products Obligations), in full, together with the Applicable Prepayment
Premium, on the date set forth as the date of termination of this Agreement in
such notice. In the event of the termination of this Agreement and repayment of
the Obligations at any time prior to the Maturity Date, for any other reason,
including (I) termination upon the election of the Required Lenders to terminate
after the occurrence of an Event of Default, (II) foreclosure and sale of
Collateral, (III) sale of the Collateral in any Insolvency Proceeding, or (IV)
restructure, reorganization or compromise of the Obligations by the confirmation
of a plan of reorganization, or any other plan of compromise, restructure, or
arrangement in any Insolvency Proceeding, then, in view of the impracticability
and extreme difficulty of ascertaining the actual amount of damages to the
Lender Group or profits lost by the Lender Group as a result of such early
termination, and by mutual agreement of the parties as to a reasonable
estimation and calculation of the lost profits or damages of the Lender Group,
Borrowers shall pay the Applicable Prepayment Premium to Agent (to be allocated
based upon letter agreements between Agent and individual Lenders), measured as
of the date of such termination."
(n) Section 7.1(g) of the Loan Agreement is hereby amended and restated
in its entirety as follows:
9
"(g) Bank Products Obligations;"
