Upon the maturity of a Canadian Bankers’ Acceptance, Coast Canada may (A) elect to issue a replacement Canadian Bankers’ Acceptance by giving a Drawing Notice; (B) elect to have all or a portion of the Face Amount of such Canadian Bankers’ Acceptance converted to a Canadian Prime Rate Loan or Canadian US Base Rate Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement by giving a Conversion Notice to Canadian Lender; or (C) pay the amount due thereunder on or before 12:00 p.m. (noon) (Toronto time) on the maturity date for such Canadian Bankers’ Acceptance (notwithstanding that Canadian Lender may be the holder thereof at maturity). Any such payment shall satisfy Coast Canada’s obligations under the Canadian Bankers’ Acceptance to which it relates and Canadian Lender shall thereafter be solely responsible for the payment of such Canadian Bankers’ Acceptance. If Coast Canada fails to pay any Canadian Bankers’ Acceptance when due, or to issue a replacement Canadian Bankers’ Acceptance in the Face Amount of such Canadian Bankers’ Acceptance, the unpaid amount due and payable in respect thereof shall be converted, as of such date, and without any necessity for notice thereof by Coast Canada to a Canadian Prime Rate Loan made by Canadian Lender and shall bear interest calculated and payable as provided in this Agreement.

(vii) Circumstances Making Canadian Bankers’ Acceptances Unavailable. If Canadian Lender determines in its Permitted Discretion, which determination shall be final, conclusive and binding upon Coast Canada, and notifies Coast Canada that, by reason of circumstances affecting the money market, there is no market for Canadian Bankers’ Acceptances, then,

(A) Coast Canada’s right to request a Drawing shall be suspended until Canadian Lender determines that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist, and Canadian Lender so notifies Coast Canada; and

(B) any Drawing Notice which is outstanding shall be cancelled and the Drawing requested therein shall not be made.

Canadian Lender shall promptly notify Coast Canada of the suspension of Coast Canada’s right to request a Drawing and of the termination of any such suspension.

(viii) Coast Canada shall compensate Canadian Lender from time to time for any costs paid or payable by Canadian Lender of making or maintaining any Canadian Bankers’ Acceptances as a result of the compliance by Canadian Lender with any law, rule, treaty or regulation of, or any interpretation or change thereof by, any government, agency, court or other administrative authority (whether or not having the force of law), or for new or increased taxes (other than taxes on the general revenues, gross receipts or income, generally, of Canadian Lender) or for reserve costs applicable to the assets or liabilities of Canadian Lender, or any cost which arises as a result of Canadian Lender complying with requirements (whether or not having the force of law) of any government, agency or administrative authority as to the appropriate amount of capital to be maintained by it. Coast Canada shall indemnify Canadian Lender for all costs, losses and expenses incurred by Canadian Lender under or in connection with any Canadian Bankers’ Acceptance other than on account of Canadian Lender’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. Any certificate of Canadian Lender in respect of the foregoing will be conclusive and binding upon Coast Canada.

(h) Repayments.

The Loans and all other Liabilities shall be repaid on the last day of the Original Term or any Renewal Term if this Agreement is renewed pursuant to Section 10 hereof.

(i) Notes.

The Loans shall, in Lender’s Permitted Discretion, be evidenced by one or more promissory notes in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender provided that in no event shall the terms and provisions of such

Notes be inconsistent with nor more burdensome on the Borrowers than those contained in this Agreement. However, if such Loans are not so evidenced, such Loans may be evidenced solely by entries upon the books and records maintained by Lender.

3. LETTERS OF CREDIT.

(a) General Terms.

Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Other Agreements, during the Original Term or any Renewal Term, Lender shall, absent the existence of an Event of Default, from time to time cause to be issued and co-sign for or otherwise guarantee, upon Borrowers’ request, commercial and/or standby Letters of Credit; provided, that the aggregate undrawn face amount of all such Letters of Credit shall at no time exceed One Million and No/100 Dollars ($1,000,000.00). Payments made by the issuer of a Letter of Credit to any Person on account of any Letter of Credit shall be immediately payable by Borrowers without notice, presentment or demand and Borrowers agree that each payment made by the issuer of a Letter of Credit in respect of a Letter of Credit shall constitute a request by Borrowers for a Loan to reimburse such issuer. A Letter of Credit fee shall accrue, at a rate equal to one and one-half percent (1.50%) per annum on the aggregate undrawn face amount of all Letters of Credit outstanding from time to time, which fee Borrowers shall pay in arrears in monthly installments on the last Business Day of each month. Borrowers shall also pay on demand the normal and customary administrative charges of the issuer of the Letter of Credit for issuance, amendment, negotiation, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit.

(b) Requests for Letters of Credit.

Borrowers shall make requests for Letters of Credit in writing at least two (2) Business Days prior to the date such Letter of Credit is to be issued. Each such request shall specify the date such Letter of Credit is to be issued, the amount thereof, the name and address of the beneficiary thereof and a description of the transaction to be supported thereby. Any such notice shall be accompanied by the form of Letter of Credit requested and any application or reimbursement agreement required by the issuer of such Letter of Credit. If any term of such application or reimbursement agreement is inconsistent with this Agreement, then the provisions of this Agreement shall control to the extent of such inconsistency.

Borrowers shall be obligated to reimburse the issuer of any Letter of Credit, or Lender if Lender has reimbursed such issuer on Borrowers’ behalf, for any payments made in respect of any Letter of Credit, which obligation shall be unconditional and irrevocable and shall be paid regardless of: (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit, (ii) any amendment or waiver of or consent or departure from all or any provisions of any Letter of Credit, this Agreement or any Other Agreement, (iii) the existence of any claim, set off, defense or other right which Borrowers or any other Person may have against any beneficiary of any Letter of Credit, Lender or the issuer of the Letter of Credit, (iv) any draft or other document presented under any 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, (v) any payment under any Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, and (vi) any other act or omission to act or delay of any kind of the issuer of such Letter of Credit, the Lender or any other Person or any other event or circumstance that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge of Borrowers’ obligations hereunder. It is understood and agreed by Borrowers that the issuer of any Letter of Credit may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order without further investigation or inquiry, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary.

(d) Expiration Dates of Letters of Credit.

The expiration date of each Letter of Credit shall be no later than the earlier of (i) one (1) year from the date of issuance and (ii) the thirtieth (30th) day prior to the end of the Original Term or any Renewal Term. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Letter of Credit may provide for automatic extensions of its expiration date for one or more one (1) year periods, so long as the issuer thereof has the right to terminate the Letter of Credit at the end of each one (1) year period and no extension period extends past the thirtieth (30th) day prior to the end of the Original Term or any Renewal Term.

4. INTEREST, FEES AND CHARGES.

(a) Interest Rate.

Subject to the terms and conditions set forth below, the Loans shall bear interest at the per annum rate of interest set forth below:

(i) For all US Prime Rate Loans advanced to Coast US, a per annum rate of interest equal to the US Prime Based Rate in effect from time to time, payable on the last Business Day of each month in arrears. Said rate of interest shall increase or decrease by an amount equal to each increase or decrease in the US Prime Rate effective on the effective date of each such change in the US Prime Rate.

(ii) For all Canadian Prime Rate Loans advanced to Coast Canada, a per annum rate of interest equal to the Canadian Prime Based Rate in effect from time to time, payable on the last Business Day of each month in arrears. Said rate of interest shall increase or decrease by an amount equal to each increase or decrease in the Canadian Prime Rate effective on the effective date of each such change in the Canadian Prime Rate.

(iii) For all Canadian US Base Rate Loans advanced to Coast Canada, a per annum rate of interest equal to the Canadian US Based Rate in effect from time to time, payable on the last Business Day of each month in arrears. Said rate of interest shall increase or decrease by an amount equal to each increase or decrease in the Canadian US Base Rate effective on the effective date of each such change in the Canadian US Base Rate.

(iv) For all LIBOR Rate Loans advanced to Borrowers, a per annum rate of interest equal to the LIBOR Based Rate for the applicable Interest Period, such rate to remain fixed for such Interest Period. “Interest Period” shall mean any continuous period of thirty (30), sixty (60) or ninety (90) days, as selected from time to time by Borrower by irrevocable notice (in writing, by telecopy, telex, telegram, electronic mail or cable) given to Lender not less than three (3) Business Days prior to the first day of each respective Interest Period; provided that: (A) each such period occurring after such initial period shall commence on the day on which the immediately preceding period expires; (B) the final Interest Period shall be such that its expiration occurs on or before the end of the Original Term or any Renewal Term; and (C) if for any reason Borrower shall fail to timely select a period, then such Loans shall continue as, or revert to, Prime Rate Loans. Interest shall be payable on the last Business Day of each month in arrears and on the last Business Day of such Interest Period.

(v) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and during the continuance thereof, the Loans shall bear interest at the rate of two percent (2.0%) per annum in excess of the interest rate otherwise payable thereon, which interest shall be payable on demand. All interest on LIBOR Rate Loans and US Prime Rate Loans requested by Coast US shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year and charged for the actual number of days elapsed. All interest on Canadian Prime Rate Loans and Canadian US Base Rate Loans requested by Coast Canada shall be calculated on the basis of a 365-day year and charged for the actual number of days elapsed.

(vi) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and during the continuance thereof, (i) Borrowers shall not have the option of requesting LIBOR Rate Loans or Canadian US Base Rate Loans, (ii) all LIBOR Rate Loans outstanding to Coast US shall be converted to US Prime Rate Loans, (iii) all LIBOR Rate Loans outstanding to Coast Canada shall be converted to US Prime Rate Loans and (iv) all Canadian Bankers’ Acceptances and Canadian US Base Rate Loans outstanding to Coast Canada shall be converted to Canadian Prime Rate Loans. These rights of Lender are independent of those rights of Lender under subsection 4(a)(v) of this Agreement or any other rights of Lender.

(vii) Interest shall be payable both before and after maturity and before and after default and/or judgment, if any, until payment in full, and interest shall accrue on overdue interest, if any, compounded on each interest payment date. Interest shall be calculated using the nominal rate method of calculation and will not be calculated using the effective rate method of calculation or on any other basis that gives effect to the principle of deemed re-investment of interest. For the purposes of the Interest Act (Canada) and disclosure under such Act, whenever interest is to be paid under this Agreement is to be calculated on the basis of 365 days or any other period of

time that is less than a calendar year, the yearly rate of interest to which the rate determined pursuant to such calculation is equivalent is the rate so determined multiplied by the actual number of days in the calendar year in which the same is to be ascertained and divided by 365 or such other period of time, as the case may be.

(b) Other LIBOR or Canadian Bankers’ Acceptance Provisions.

(i) Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, Borrowers shall have the option (A) as of any date, to convert all or any part of the Prime Rate Loans to, or request that new Loans be made as, LIBOR Rate Loans of various Interest Periods, (B) as of the last day of any Interest Period, to continue all or any portion of the relevant LIBOR Rate Loans as LIBOR Rate Loans; (C) as of the last day of any Interest Period, to convert all or any portion of the LIBOR Rate Loans to Prime Rate Loans; and (D) at any time, to request new Loans as Prime Rate Loans; provided, that Loans may not be continued as or converted to LIBOR Rate Loans, if the continuation or conversion thereof would violate the provisions of subsections 4(b)(ii) or 4(b)(iii) of this Agreement or if an Event of Default has occurred.

(ii) Lender’s determination of the LIBOR Rate as provided above shall be conclusive, absent manifest error. Furthermore, if Lender determines, in good faith (which determination shall be conclusive, absent manifest error), prior to the commencement of any Interest Period that (A) US Dollar deposits of sufficient amount and maturity for funding the Loans are not available to Lender in the London Interbank Eurodollar market in the ordinary course of business, or (B) by reason of circumstances affecting the London Interbank Eurodollar market, adequate and fair means do not exist for ascertaining the rate of interest to be applicable to the Loans requested by Borrowers to be LIBOR Rate Loans or the Loans bearing interest at the rates set forth in subsection 4(a)(iv) of this Agreement shall not represent the effective pricing to Lender for US Dollar deposits of a comparable amount for the relevant period (such as for example, but not limited to, official reserve requirements required by Regulation D to the extent not given effect in determining the rate), Lender shall promptly notify Borrowers and (1) all existing LIBOR Rate Loans shall convert to Prime Rate Loans upon the end of the applicable Interest Period, and (2) no additional LIBOR Rate Loans shall be made until such circumstances are cured.

(iii) If, after the date hereof, there occurs any Regulatory Change that, in the opinion of counsel to Lender, makes it unlawful for Lender to make or maintain LIBOR Rate Loans, then Lender shall promptly notify Borrowers and (A) the LIBOR Rate Loans shall immediately convert to Prime Rate Loans on the last Business Day of the then existing Interest Period or on such earlier date as required by law and (B) no additional LIBOR Rate Loans shall be made until such circumstance is cured.

(iv) If, for any reason, a LIBOR Rate Loan is paid prior to the last Business Day of any Interest Period or if a LIBOR Rate Loan does not occur on a date specified by Borrowers in its request (other than as a result of a default by Lender), Borrowers agree to indemnify Lender against any loss, liability, cost or expense Lender may incur or sustain.

(v) If any Regulatory Change (whether or not having the force of law) shall (A) impose, modify or deem applicable any assessment, reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against assets held by, or deposits in or for the account of or loans by, or any other acquisition of funds or disbursements by, Lender; (B) subject Lender or the LIBOR Rate Loans to any Tax or change the basis of taxation of payments to Lender of principal or interest due from Borrowers to Lender hereunder (other than a change in the taxation of the overall income generally of Lender); or (C) impose on Lender any other condition regarding the LIBOR Rate Loans or Lender’s funding thereof, and Lender shall determine (which determination shall be conclusive, absent any manifest error) that the result of the foregoing is to increase the cost to Lender of making or maintaining the LIBOR Rate Loans or to reduce the amount of principal or interest received by Lender hereunder, then Borrower shall pay, to Lender, such additional amounts as Lender shall, from time to time, determine are sufficient to compensate and indemnify Lender from such increased cost or reduced amount by no later than ten (10) days following Borrowers’ receipt of a written demand for such payment from Lender which describes the Regulatory Change and the increase in costs to Lender resulting therefrom.

(vi) Lender shall receive payments of amounts of principal of and interest with respect to the LIBOR Rate Loans free and clear of, and without deduction for, any Taxes. If (A) Lender shall be subject to any Tax in respect of any LIBOR Rate Loans or any part thereof or, (B) Borrowers shall be required to withhold or deduct any Tax from any such amount, the LIBOR Rate applicable to such LIBOR Rate Loans shall be adjusted by Lender to reflect all additional costs incurred by Lender in connection with the payment by Lender or the withholding by Borrowers of such

Tax and Borrowers shall provide Lender with a statement detailing the amount of any such Tax actually paid by Borrowers. Determination by Lender of the amount of such costs shall be conclusive, absent manifest error. If after any such adjustment any part of any Tax paid by Lender is subsequently recovered by Lender, Lender shall reimburse Borrowers to the extent of the amount so recovered.

(vii) Each request for LIBOR Rate Loans shall be in an amount not less than Five Million and No/100 Dollars ($5,000,000.00), and in integral multiples of, One Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($100,000.00).

(viii) Unless otherwise specified by Borrowers, all Loans shall be Prime Rate Loans.

(ix) No more than three (3) Interest Periods may be in effect with respect to outstanding LIBOR Rate Loans at any one time.

(i) Collateral Management (Audit) Fee: Borrowers shall pay to Lender an annual collateral management (audit) fee based upon the then in effect Applicable Margin for LIBOR Based Rate Loans as set forth in the following table, provided, that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the annual collateral management (audit) fee will be the greater of (A) the actual amount of reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Lender during the course of field examinations of the Collateral and Borrowers’ operations, plus a per diem charge at the rate of Six Hundred Dollars ($600) per person per day for Lender’s examiners in the field or office, or (ii) Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000). The annual audit fee shall be payable in advance on the first day of January of each year, based upon the Applicable Margin for LIBOR Based Rate Loans in effect for the immediately preceding Fiscal Year, subject to adjustment, upward or downward, as a result of the adjustment to the Applicable Margin for LIBOR Based Rate Loans put into effect by Lender within (10) days of Lender’s receipt of, and based upon, Borrowers’ annual audited financial statements for the immediately preceding Fiscal Year. Within ten (10) days of the effective date of any such adjustment in the Applicable Margin, the Lender will send a written notice to the Borrowers that sets forth the amount and a calculation of any resulting adjustment (whether upward or downward) in the annual collateral management (audit) fee. The amount of that fee adjustment will be paid, within five (5) days after the date such written notice is given, by Borrowers to the Lender in the case of an upward adjustment or by Lender to Borrowers in the case of a downward adjustment.


Applicable Margin for LIBOR Based Rate Loans	Annual Collateral Management (Audit) Fee
250 basis points	$	50,000
225 basis points	$	40,000
200 basis points	$	30,000
175 basis points	$	20,000
150 basis points	$	10,000

(ii) Unused Line Fee: Borrowers shall pay to Lender an unused line fee of one-fourth of one percent (1/4^th of 1%) per annum of the average daily unused portion of the Maximum Loan Limit for each month, which fee shall be fully earned by Lender and payable monthly in arrears on the first Business Day of each month. Said fee shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year (365-day year for Coast Canada). For this purpose, the unused portion of the Maximum Loan Limit shall be determined on the basis of the daily difference between the Maximum Loan Limit and the sum of the US Revolving Credit Outstandings and the Canadian Revolving Credit Outstandings.

(iii) Costs and Expenses: Borrowers shall reimburse Lender for all reasonably incurred costs and expenses, including, without limitation, legal expenses and reasonable attorneys’ fees (whether for internal or outside counsel), incurred by Lender in connection with the (i) documentation and consummation of this transaction and any other transactions between Borrowers and Lender, including, without limitation, Uniform Commercial Code, Personal Property Security Act and other public record searches and filings, overnight courier or other express or messenger

delivery, appraisal costs, surveys, title insurance and environmental audit or review costs; (ii) collection, protection or enforcement of any rights in or to the Collateral; (iii) collection of any Liabilities; and (iv) administration and enforcement of any of Lender’s rights under this Agreement or any Other Agreement. Borrowers shall also pay all normal service charges with respect to all accounts (if any) maintained by Borrowers with Lender and LaSalle Bank and any additional services requested by Borrowers from Agent, US Lender, Canadian Lender or LaSalle Bank. All such costs, expenses and charges shall, if owed to Lender or LaSalle Bank, be reimbursed by Lender and in such event or in the event such costs and expenses are owed to Lender, constitute Liabilities hereunder, shall be payable by Borrowers to Lender on demand, and, until paid, shall bear interest at the highest rate then applicable to Loans hereunder.

(iv) Capital Adequacy Charge. If Lender shall have determined that the adoption of any law, rule or regulation regarding capital adequacy, or any change therein or in the interpretation or application thereof, or compliance by Lender with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) from any central bank or governmental authority enacted after the date hereof, does or shall have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such party’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder to a level below that which Lender could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration Lender’s policies with respect to capital adequacy) by a material amount, then from time to time, after submission by Lender to a Borrower of a written demand therefor (“Capital Adequacy Demand”) together with the certificate described below, Borrowers shall pay to Lender such additional amount or amounts (“Capital Adequacy Charge”) as will compensate Lender for such reduction, such Capital Adequacy Demand to be made with reasonable promptness following such determination. A certificate of Lender claiming entitlement to payment as set forth above shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. Such certificate shall set forth the nature of the occurrence giving rise to such reduction, the amount of the Capital Adequacy Charge to be paid to Lender, and the method by which such amount was determined. In determining such amount, Lender may use any reasonable averaging and attribution method, applied on a non-discriminatory basis.

(v) Amendment Fee. Borrowers shall pay to Lender a one time fee of $50,000 which shall be fully earned and payable on the date hereof.

(d) Maximum Interest.

It is the intent of the parties that the rate of interest and other charges to Borrowers under this Agreement shall be lawful; therefore, if for any reason the interest or other charges payable under this Agreement and the Other Agreements are found by a court of competent jurisdiction, in a final determination, to exceed the limit which Lender may lawfully charge Borrowers, then the obligation to pay interest and other charges shall automatically be reduced to such limit and, if any amount in excess of such limit shall have been paid, then such amount shall be refunded to Borrowers.

5. COLLATERAL.

(a) Grant of Security Interest to Lender and Agent.

As security for the payment of all Loans now or in the future made by Lender to Borrowers hereunder and for the payment or other satisfaction of all other Liabilities, Coast US and Coast Canada hereby assign to Lender and Agent for the benefit of Lender, a continuing security interest in the following property of Borrowers, whether now or hereafter owned, existing, acquired or arising and wherever now or hereafter located: (a) all Accounts (whether or not Eligible Accounts) and all Goods whose sale, lease or other disposition by Borrowers have given rise to Accounts and have been returned to, or repossessed or stopped in transit by, Borrowers; (b) all Chattel Paper, Instruments, Documents and General Intangibles (including, without limitation, all patents, patent applications, trademarks, trademark applications, trade names, trade secrets, goodwill, copyrights, copyright applications, registrations, licenses, software, franchises, customer lists, tax refund claims, claims against carriers and shippers, guarantee claims, contract rights, payment intangibles, security interests, security deposits and rights to indemnification) including, without limitation, the patents, trademarks, copyrights and registered names on Exhibit D hereto; (c) all Inventory (whether or not Eligible Inventory); (d) all Goods (other than Inventory), including, without limitation, Equipment, vehicles and Fixtures; (e) all Investment Property; (f) all Deposit Accounts, bank accounts, deposits and cash; (g) all Letter-of-Credit Rights; (h) Commercial Tort Claims listed on Exhibit C hereto (i) any other property of Borrowers now or hereafter in the possession, custody or control of Agent or Lender

All sums paid by Lender in respect thereof and all costs, fees and expenses including, without limitation, reasonable attorney fees, all court costs and all other charges relating thereto incurred by Lender shall constitute Liabilities, payable by Borrowers to Lender on demand and, until paid, shall bear interest at the highest rate then applicable to Loans hereunder.

If an endorsement or assignment of any such items shall not be made for any reason, Lender is hereby irrevocably authorized, as Borrowers’ attorney and agent-in-fact, to endorse or assign the same on Borrowers’ behalf.

(d) Electronic Chattel Paper.

To the extent that Borrowers obtain or maintain any Electronic Chattel Paper, Borrowers shall create, store and assign the record or records comprising the Electronic Chattel Paper in such a manner that (i) a single authoritative copy of the record or records exists which is unique, identifiable and except as otherwise provided in clauses (iv), (v) and (vi) below, unalterable, (ii) the authoritative copy identifies Lender as the assignee of the record or records, (iii) the authoritative copy is communicated to and maintained by the Lender or their designated custodian, (iv) copies or revisions that add or change an identified assignee of the authoritative copy can only be made with the participation of Lender, (v) each copy of the authoritative copy and any copy of a copy is readily identifiable as a copy that is not the authoritative copy and (vi) any revision of the authoritative copy is readily identifiable as an authorized or unauthorized revision.

Borrowers irrevocably hereby make, constitute and appoint Lender (and all Persons designated by Lender for that purpose) as Borrowers’ true and lawful attorney and agent-in-fact to execute and file such financing statements, documents and other agreements and instruments and do such other acts and things as may be necessary to preserve and perfect Lender’s security interest in the Collateral. Borrowers further agree that a carbon, photographic, photostatic or other reproduction of this Agreement or of a financing statement shall be sufficient as a financing statement. Borrowers further ratify and confirm the prior filing by Lender of any and all financing statements which identify the Borrowers as debtor, Lender as secured party and any or all Collateral as collateral.

7. POSSESSION OF COLLATERAL AND RELATED MATTERS.

8. COLLECTIONS.

(a) Borrowers shall establish accounts (the “Blocked Accounts”) with an Approved Bank, into which Borrowers will promptly deposit all payments received by Borrowers on Accounts in the identical form in which such payments were received, whether by cash or check.

Borrowers agree to pay all fees, costs and expenses in connection with opening and maintaining the Blocked Accounts. All of such fees, costs and expenses if not paid by Borrowers, may be paid by Lender and in such event all amounts paid by Lender shall constitute Liabilities hereunder, shall be payable to Lender by Borrowers upon demand, and, until paid, shall bear interest at the highest rate then applicable to Loans hereunder. All checks, drafts, instruments and other items of payment or Proceeds of Collateral shall be endorsed by Borrowers to Lender, and, if that endorsement of any such item shall not be made for any reason, Lender is hereby irrevocably authorized to endorse the same on Borrowers’ behalf.

All of the foregoing notices shall be provided by Borrowers to Lender in writing.

Borrowers shall maintain all governmental consents, franchises, certificates, licenses, authorizations, approvals and permits, the lack of which would have a Material Adverse Effect on Borrowers and Borrowers shall remain in compliance with all applicable federal, State, local and foreign statutes, orders, regulations, rules and ordinances (including, without limitation, Environmental Laws and statutes, orders, regulations, rules and ordinances relating to taxes, employer and employee contributions and similar items, securities, ERISA or employee health and safety) the failure with which to comply would have a Material Adverse Effect on Borrowers.

Borrowers authorize Lender to discuss the affairs, finances and business of Borrowers, as it directly relates to the Loans or the Collateral, with any officers, employees, directors or managers of Borrowers or with their Parent or any Affiliate or the officers, employees, directors or managers of their Parent or any Affiliate, and to discuss the financial condition of Borrowers with Borrowers’ independent public accountants. Any such discussions shall be without liability to Lender or to Borrowers’ independent public accountants, provided that the information obtained therefrom shall be kept confidential by Lender in accordance with Section 26 hereof. Borrowers shall pay to Lender the collateral management (audit) fee specified in section 4(c) above as payment for the above-referenced inspection and audit fees.

(e) Insurance.

Borrowers shall:

(i) Keep the Collateral properly housed and insured for the full insurable value thereof against loss or damage by fire, theft, explosion, sprinklers, collision (in the case of motor vehicles) and such other risks as are customarily insured against by Persons engaged in businesses similar to that of Borrowers, with such companies, in such amounts, with such deductibles, and under policies in such form, as shall be reasonably satisfactory to Lender. Original (or certified) copies of such policies of insurance have been or shall be, within ninety (90) days of the date hereof, delivered to Lender and shall contain an endorsement, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Lender, showing loss under such insurance policies payable to Agent, for the benefit of US Lender, or Canadian Lender, as their respective interests may appear. Such endorsement, or an independent instrument furnished to Lender, shall provide that the insurance company shall give Lender at least thirty (30) days written notice before any such policy of insurance is altered or canceled and that no act, whether willful or negligent, or default of Borrowers or any other Person shall affect the right of Lender to recover under such policy of insurance in case of loss or damage. Borrowers hereby direct all insurers under all policies of insurance to pay all proceeds payable thereunder directly to Lender, for application by Lender to the payment of the Liabilities or to repair, reconstruct or replace the loss of or damage to Collateral as Lender in its sole but reasonable judgment after consultation with such Borrower, may determine. Borrowers irrevocably make, constitute and appoint Lender (and all officers, employees or agents designated by Lender) as Borrowers’ true and lawful attorney (and agent-in-fact) empowering Lender, from time to time in its Permitted Discretion to direct all insurers under all policies of insurance to pay all proceeds payable thereunder directly to Lender, and to endorse the name of Borrowers on any check, draft, instrument or other item of payment for the proceeds of such policies of insurance, for application by Lender to the payment of the Liabilities or to repair, reconstruct or replace the loss of or damage to Collateral as Lender in its sole but reasonable judgment, after consultation with Borrowers, may determine.

(ii) Maintain, at their expense, such public liability and third party property damage insurance as is customary for Persons engaged in businesses similar to that of Borrowers with such companies and in such amounts, with such deductibles and under policies in such form as shall be satisfactory to Lender and original (or certified) copies of such policies have been or shall be, within ninety (90) days after the date hereof, delivered to Lender, each such policy shall contain an endorsement showing Lender as additional insureds thereunder and providing that the insurance company shall give Lender at least thirty (30) days written notice before any such policy shall be altered or canceled.

(iii) Maintain, at its expense, a life insurance policy of not less than Two Million Five Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($2,500,000.00) on the life of Xxxxxx X. XxXxxxx assigned to Lender as additional security for the payment and performance of Borrowers’ Liabilities hereunder. Borrowers further agree to furnish Lender with an “absolute assignment” of the proceeds of the policy(ies) as further Collateral and to record the “absolute assignment” with the company issuing said policy(ies) and to furnish Lender with evidence of acceptance thereof by the issuing company.

If Borrowers at any time or times hereafter shall fail to obtain or maintain any of the policies of insurance required above or to pay any premium relating thereto, then Lender, without waiving or releasing any obligation or default by Borrowers hereunder, may (but shall be under no obligation to) obtain and maintain such policies of insurance and pay such premiums and take such other actions with respect thereto as Lender reasonably deems advisable upon notice to Borrowers. Such insurance, if obtained by Lender, may, but need not, protect Borrowers’ interests or pay any claim made by or against Borrowers with respect to the Collateral. Such insurance may be more expensive than the cost of insurance Borrowers may be able to obtain on their own and may be cancelled only upon Borrowers providing evidence that they have obtained the insurance as required above. All sums disbursed by Lender in connection with any such actions including, without limitation, court costs, expenses, other charges relating thereto and reasonable attorneys’ fees, shall constitute Loans hereunder, shall be payable on demand by Borrowers to Lender and, until paid, shall bear interest at the highest rate then applicable to Loans hereunder.

If Borrowers fail to pay any such taxes then, in the absence of any such contest by Borrowers, Agent, US Lender or Canadian Lender may (but shall be under no obligation to) advance and pay any sums required to pay any such taxes and/or to secure the release of any lien therefor, and any sums so advanced by Lender shall constitute Loans hereunder, shall be payable by Borrowers to Lender on demand, and, until paid, shall bear interest at the highest rate then applicable to Loans hereunder.

(d) Lender is hereby authorized, without notice or demand and without affecting the liability of a Borrower hereunder, to, at any time and from time to time, (i) renew, extend, accelerate or otherwise change the time for payment of, or other terms relating to a Borrower’s Liabilities or otherwise modify, amend or change the terms of any promissory note or other agreement, document or instrument now or hereafter executed by a Borrower and delivered to Lender; (ii) accept partial payments on a Borrower’s Liabilities; (iii) take and hold security or collateral for the payment of a Borrower’s Liabilities hereunder or for the payment of any guaranties of a Borrower’s Liabilities or other liabilities of a Borrower and exchange, enforce, waive and release any such security or collateral; (iv) apply such security or collateral and direct the order or manner of sale thereof as Lender, in its Permitted Discretion, may determine; and (v) settle, release, compromise, collect or otherwise liquidate a Borrower’s Liabilities and any security or collateral therefor in any manner, without affecting or impairing the obligations of the other Borrowers. Lender shall have the exclusive right to determine the time and manner of application of any payments or credits, whether received from a Borrower or any other source, and such determination shall be binding on such Borrower. Except as set forth herein, such payments and credits may be applied, reversed and reapplied, in whole or in part, to any of a Borrower’s Liabilities as Lender shall determine in its Permitted Discretion without affecting the validity or enforceability of the Liabilities of the other Borrowers.

(e) Each Borrower hereby agrees that, except as hereinafter provided, its obligations hereunder shall be unconditional, irrespective of (i) the absence of any attempt to collect a Borrower’s Liabilities from any Borrower or any guarantor or other action to enforce the same; (ii) the waiver or consent by Lender with respect to any provision of any instrument evidencing Borrowers’ Liabilities, or any part thereof, or any other agreement heretofore, now or hereafter executed by a Borrower and delivered to Lender; (iii) failure by Lender to take any steps to perfect and maintain its security interest in, or to preserve its rights to, any security or collateral for Borrowers’ Liabilities; (iv) the institution of any proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code, or any similar proceeding, by or against a Borrower or Lender’s election in any such proceeding of the application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code; (v) any borrowing or grant of a security interest by any Borrower as debtor-in-possession, under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code; (vi) the disallowance, under Section 502 of the Bankruptcy Code, of all or any portion of Lender’s claim(s) for repayment of any of Borrowers’ Liabilities; or (vii) any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor.

(f) Until the payment in full and satisfaction of all Liabilities hereunder and termination of this Agreement, payment made by or for the account of a Borrower including, without limitations, (i) a payment made by such Borrower on behalf of another Borrower’s Liabilities or (ii) a payment made by any other person under any guaranty, shall entitle such Borrower, by subrogation or otherwise, to any payment from such other Borrower or from or out of such other Borrower’s property and such Borrower shall not exercise any right or remedy against such other Borrower or any property of such other Borrower by reason of any performance of such Borrower of its joint and several obligations hereunder.

(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary that may be contained elsewhere in this Agreement, including in subsections 19(a) through (f) above, the liability of Coast Canada under this Agreement shall be limited to the sums borrowed by Coast Canada from Canadian Lender and all other Liabilities owed to Canadian Lender hereunder together with interest thereon at the rates provided in this Agreement and all costs and expenses payable by Coast Canada hereunder. For further certainty, Lender shall maintain all of its rights and remedies against Coast Canada and the Collateral of Coast Canada for obligations of Coast Canada under this Agreement from time to time, but shall have no recourse whatsoever against Coast Canada and the Collateral of Coast Canada for the obligations of Coast US under this Agreement.

20. INDEMNIFICATION.

Borrowers agree to defend (with counsel satisfactory to Lender), protect, indemnify and hold harmless Agent, US Lender and Canadian Lender, each affiliate or subsidiary of Agent, US Lender and Canadian Lender, and each of their respective shareholders, members, officers, directors, managers, employees, attorneys and agents (each an “Indemnified Party”) from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, claims, costs, expenses and disbursements of any kind or nature (including, without limitation, the disbursements and the reasonable fees of counsel for each Indemnified Party in connection with any investigative, administrative or judicial proceeding, whether or not the Indemnified Party shall be designated a party thereto), which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against, any Indemnified Party (whether direct, indirect or consequential and whether based on any federal, State or local laws or regulations including, without limitation, securities laws and regulations, Environmental Laws and commercial laws and regulations, under common law or in equity, or based on contract or otherwise) in any manner relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any Other Agreement, or any act, event or transaction related or attendant thereto, the making or issuance and the management of the Loans or any Letters of Credit or the use or intended use of the proceeds of the Loans or any Letters of Credit ; provided, however, that Borrowers shall not have any obligation hereunder to any Indemnified Party with respect to matters caused by or resulting from the willful misconduct or gross negligence of such Indemnified Party. To the extent that the undertaking to indemnify set forth in the preceding sentence may be unenforceable because it is violative of any law or public policy, Borrowers shall satisfy such undertaking to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law. Any liability, obligation, loss, damage, penalty, cost or expense covered by this indemnity shall be paid to each Indemnified Party on demand, and, failing prompt payment, shall, together with interest thereon at the highest rate then applicable to Loans hereunder from the date incurred by each Indemnified Party until paid by Borrowers, be added to the Liabilities of Borrowers and be secured by the Collateral. The provisions of this Section 20 shall survive the satisfaction and payment of the other Liabilities and the termination of this Agreement.

Failure of Lender to provide a copy of such process shall not impair Lender’s rights hereunder, or create a cause of action against Lender or create any claim or right on behalf of Borrowers or any third party. BORROWERS HEREBY WAIVE ANY RIGHT THEY MAY HAVE TO TRANSFER OR CHANGE THE VENUE OF ANY LITIGATION BROUGHT AGAINST BORROWERS BY LENDER IN ACCORDANCE WITH THIS SECTION.

23. MODIFICATION AND BENEFIT OF AGREEMENT.

(e) Agent’s, US Lender’s and/or Canadian Lender’s failure, at any time or times hereafter, to require strict performance by Borrowers of any provision of this Agreement or any of the Other Agreements shall not waive, affect or diminish any right of Lender thereafter to demand strict compliance and performance therewith.

If the amount in the Agreed Currency that may be so purchased for any reason falls short of the amount originally due, Borrowers shall pay all additional amounts, in the Agreed Currency, as may be necessary to compensate for the shortfall.
