Exhibit A		Amended and Restated Revolving Note	38

Amended and Restated Credit Agreement

Bank of Montreal

Chicago, Illinois

Ladies and Gentlemen:

The undersigned, Hub Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Public Hub Company”), and Hub City Terminals, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Hub Chicago”) (the Public Hub Company and Hub Chicago being hereinafter referred to collectively as the “Borrowers” and individually as a “Borrower”), apply to you (the “Bank”) for your commitment, subject to the terms and conditions hereof and on the basis of the representations and warranties hereinafter set forth, to extend credit to the Borrowers, all as more fully hereinafter set forth. This Amended and Restated Credit Agreement is entered into as of December 12, 2013, by and among the Borrowers and the Bank. All capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the same meanings herein as such terms are defined in Section 5.1 hereof.

Preliminary Statement

A.The Borrowers and the Bank are currently parties to the Credit Agreement dated as of March 23, 2005 (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified prior to the date hereof, the “Original Credit Agreement”) pursuant to which the Bank agreed to extend a revolving credit facility to the Borrowers.

B.The Borrowers have requested that certain amendments be made to the Original Credit Agreement and, for the sake of clarity and convenience, that the Original Credit Agreement be restated in its entirety as so amended.

C.This Agreement amends and restates the Original Credit Agreement in its entirety and from and after the date of this Agreement, all references to the Original Credit Agreement in any Loan Document or in any other instrument or document shall, without more, be deemed to refer to this Agreement. This Agreement shall become effective as of the date hereof (the “Effective Date”), and supersedes all provisions of the Original Credit Agreement as of such date, upon the execution of this Agreement by each of the parties hereto and fulfillment of the conditions precedent contained in Section 7.2 hereof.

Now, Therefore, in consideration of the mutual agreements contained herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

Section 1.The Credits.

Section 1.1. Revolving Credit. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Bank agrees to extend a revolving credit (the “Revolving Credit”) to the Borrowers which may be availed of by either Borrower from time to time during the period from and including the date hereof to but not including the Termination Date, at which time the commitment of the Bank to extend credit under the Revolving Credit shall expire. The Revolving Credit may be utilized by the Borrowers in the form of Loans and Letters of Credit, all as more fully hereinafter set forth, provided that the aggregate principal amount of Loans and Letters of Credit outstanding at any one time shall not exceed $50,000,000 (the “Commitment”, as such amount may be reduced pursuant to the terms hereof). During the period from and including the date hereof to but not including the Termination Date, the Borrowers may use the Commitment by borrowing, repaying, and reborrowing Loans in whole or in part and/or by having the Bank issue Letters of Credit, having such Letters of Credit expire or otherwise terminate without having been drawn upon or, if drawn upon, reimbursing the Bank for each such drawing, and having the Bank issue new Letters of Credit, all in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

Section 1.2. Revolving Credit Loans. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Revolving Credit may be availed of by either Borrower in the form of loans (individually a “Loan” and collectively the “Loans”). Each Loan shall be in a minimum amount of $500,000 (or such greater amount which is an integral multiple of $100,000). The Loans shall be made against and evidenced by a single amended and restated promissory note of the Borrowers, jointly and severally, in the form (with appropriate insertions) attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Note”). The Note shall be dated the date of issuance thereof and be expressed to bear interest as set forth in Section 2 hereof. The Note, and all Loans evidenced thereby, shall mature and become due and payable in full on the Termination Date. Without regard to the principal amount of the Note stated on its face, the actual principal amount at any time outstanding and owing by the Borrowers on account of the Note shall be the sum of all Loans made hereunder less all payments of principal actually received by the Bank.

Section 1.3. Letters of Credit.

(a)General Terms. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Revolving Credit may be availed of by either Borrower in the form of standby and commercial letters of credit issued by the Bank for the account of such Borrower (individually a “Letter of Credit” and collectively the “Letters of Credit”), provided that the aggregate amount available for drawing under all Letters of Credit issued and outstanding hereunder shall not at any one time exceed $25,000,000. For purposes of this Agreement, a Letter of Credit shall be deemed outstanding as of any time in an amount equal to the undrawn face amount thereunder plus any unreimbursed drawings then outstanding with respect thereto. If and to the extent any Letter of Credit expires or otherwise terminates without having been drawn upon, the availability under the Commitment shall to such extent be reinstated. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Existing L/Cs (all of the Existing L/Cs are listed and described in Schedule 1.3 hereto) issued by BMO Harris Bank N.A. and the Applications provided in connection therewith shall each constitute a “Letter of Credit” and an “Application”, as applicable, hereunder for all purposes of the Agreement to the same extent, and with the same force and effect, as if such Existing L/Cs had been issued at the request of the Borrowers hereunder. All references to “Bank” shall be deemed to be references to BMO Harris Bank N.A. with respect to Existing L/Cs.

(b) Term and Cash Collateralization. Each Letter of Credit issued hereunder shall expire not later than 12 months from the date of issuance (or be cancelable not later than 12 months from the date of issuance and each renewal); provided, however, that if the expiration date of any Letter of Credit issued hereunder extends past the Termination Date, the Borrowers hereby agree to cause cash collateral to be posted with the Bank on or before the date thirty (30) days prior to the Termination Date as then in effect in an amount equal to 105% of the face amount of all Letters of Credit then outstanding. All amounts paid as cash collateral shall be held by the Bank in one (1) or more separate collateral accounts (each such account, and any substitutions for such account, any certificate of deposit or other instrument evidencing any of the foregoing being collectively called the “Collateral Account”) as security for, and for application by the Bank to, the reimbursement of any payment under any Letter of Credit then or thereafter made by the Bank. The Collateral Account shall be held in the name of and subject to the exclusive dominion and control of the Bank. The Borrowers hereby grant the Bank a security interest in and lien on any and all cash collateral paid into the Collateral Account in accordance with this clause (b) and agree to execute any documentation reasonably required by the Bank to perfect its security interest in the Collateral Account. The Borrowers acknowledge and agree that the Bank may agree to extend or renew a Letter of Credit issued under the Credit Agreement after the Termination Date. In consideration of any such extension or renewal, Borrowers agree that all cash collateral posted with respect to any Letter of Credit issued under the Credit Agreement shall continue to be pledged to, and subject to the security interest of, the Bank after the Termination Date as collateral security for any reimbursement and other obligations related to such Letter of Credit and any extension or renewal thereof.

(c)General Characteristics. Each Letter of Credit issued hereunder shall be payable in U.S. Dollars, conform to the general requirements of the Bank for the issuance of a standby or commercial letter of credit, as the case may be, as to form and substance, and be a letter of credit which the Bank may lawfully issue.

(d)Applications. At the time either Borrower requests a Letter of Credit to be issued (or prior to the first issuance of a Letter of Credit in the case of a continuing application), such Borrower shall execute and deliver to the Bank an application for such Letter of Credit in the form then customarily prescribed by the Bank (individually an “Application” and collectively the “Applications”). Subject to the other provisions of this subsection, the obligation of the relevant Borrower to reimburse the Bank for drawings under a Letter of Credit shall be governed by the Application for such Letter of Credit. Anything contained in the Applications to the contrary notwithstanding, (i) the Borrowers shall be jointly and severally liable for all obligations in respect of each Letter of Credit, (ii) in the event the Bank is not reimbursed by the Borrowers for the amount the Bank pays on any drawing made under a Letter of Credit issued hereunder by 11:00 a.m. on the date when such drawing is paid, the obligation of the Borrowers to reimburse the Bank for the amount of such drawing shall bear interest (which the Borrowers hereby jointly and severally promise to pay on demand) from and after the date the drawing is paid by the Bank until repayment in full thereof at the fluctuating rate per annum determined by adding the Applicable Margin to the Base Rate as from time to time in effect (computed on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, for the actual number of days elapsed), (iii) the relevant Borrower shall pay fees in connection with each Letter of Credit as set forth in Section 3.1 hereof, (iv) prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Bank will not call for the funding of a Letter of Credit by the Borrowers prior to being presented with a drawing thereunder and (v) the Bank will promptly notify the applicable Borrower of the presentment to the Bank of any demand for payment by the Bank under any Letter of Credit, together with notice of the amount of such payment and the date such payment shall be made.

(e)The Borrowers hereby irrevocably authorize the Bank to make Loans from time to time hereunder (and any such Loan may be made by the Bank hereunder without regard to the provisions of Section 7 hereof) for payment of any reimbursement obligation under an Application (including Applications with respect to Existing L/Cs, or otherwise); provided, that the Bank shall not be under any obligation to make any such Loan under this clause, and the Bank shall incur no liability to the Borrowers or any other Person for its failure to do so.

Section 1.4. Manner and Disbursement of Loans. Either Borrower shall give written or telephonic notice to the Bank (which notice shall be irrevocable once given and, if given by telephone, shall be promptly confirmed in writing) by no later than 11:00 a.m. on the date such Borrower requests the Bank to make a Loan hereunder. Each such notice shall specify the date of the Loan requested (which must be a Business Day) and the amount of such Loan. Each Loan shall initially constitute part of the Base Rate Portion except to the extent such Borrower has otherwise timely elected that such Loan, or any part thereof, constitute part of a LIBOR Portion as provided in Section 2 hereof. The Borrowers agree that the Bank may rely upon any written or telephonic notice given by any person that the Bank in good faith believes is an Authorized Representative without the necessity of independent investigation and, in the event any telephonic notice conflicts with the written confirmation, such telephonic notice shall govern if the Bank has acted in reliance thereon. Subject to the provisions of Section 7 hereof, the proceeds of each Loan shall be made available to the relevant Borrower at the principal office of the Bank in Chicago, Illinois, in immediately available funds by deposit to such Borrower’s operating account maintained with the Bank or as otherwise agreed upon by the applicable Borrower and the Bank.

Section 2.Interest and Change In Circumstances.

Section 2.1. Interest Rate Options. (a) Generally. The outstanding principal balance of the Loans (all of the indebtedness evidenced by the Note bearing interest at the same rate for the same period of time being hereinafter referred to as a “Portion”) shall bear interest with reference to the Base Rate (the “Base Rate Portion”) or, at the option of the Borrowers and subject to the terms and conditions hereof, with reference to an Adjusted LIBOR (“LIBOR Portions”). All of the indebtedness evidenced by the Note which bears interest with reference to a particular Adjusted LIBOR for a particular Interest Period shall constitute a single LIBOR Portion, and all of the indebtedness evidenced by the Note which is not part of a LIBOR Portion shall constitute a single Base Rate Portion. There shall not be more than eight LIBOR Portions applicable to the Note outstanding at any one time. Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the obligation of the Bank to create, continue or effect by conversion any LIBOR Portion shall be conditioned upon the fact that at the time no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. The Borrowers hereby jointly and severally promise to pay interest on each Portion of the Note at the rates and times specified in this Section 2.

(b)Base Rate Portion. The Base Rate Portion shall bear interest at the rate per annum determined by adding the Applicable Margin to the Base Rate as in effect from time to time, provided that upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any Payment Default (but if prior to acceleration, upon the election of the Bank), such Portion shall bear interest (which the Borrowers jointly and severally promise to pay), whether before or after judgment until payment in full thereof, at the rate per annum determined by adding 2.00% to the interest rate which would otherwise be applicable thereto from time to time. Interest on the Base Rate Portion shall be payable quarterly in arrears on the last day of each March, June, September and December in each year (commencing on the first such date occurring after the date hereof) and at maturity of the Note, and interest after maturity (whether by lapse of time, acceleration, or otherwise) shall be due and payable upon demand. Any change in the interest rate on the Base Rate Portion resulting from a change in the Base Rate shall be effective on the date of the relevant change in the Base Rate.

(c)LIBOR Portions. Each LIBOR Portion shall bear interest for each Interest Period selected therefor at a rate per annum determined by adding the Applicable Margin to the Adjusted LIBOR for such Interest Period, provided that upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any Payment Default (but if prior to acceleration, upon the election of the Bank), such Portion shall bear interest (which the Borrowers jointly and severally promise to pay), whether before or after judgment until payment in full thereof, through the end of the Interest Period then applicable thereto at the rate per annum determined by adding 2.00% to the interest rate which would otherwise be applicable thereto, and effective at the end of such Interest Period such LIBOR Portion shall automatically be converted into and added to the Base Rate Portion and shall thereafter bear interest at the interest rate applicable to the Base Rate Portion after default. Interest on each LIBOR Portion shall be due and payable on the last day of each Interest Period applicable thereto and, with respect to any Interest Period applicable to a LIBOR Portion in excess of three months, on the date occurring every three months after the date such Interest Period began and at the end of such Interest Period, and interest after maturity (whether by lapse of time, acceleration, or otherwise) shall be due and payable upon demand. Either Borrower shall notify the Bank on or before 11:00 a.m. on the third Business Day preceding the end of an Interest Period applicable to a LIBOR Portion whether such LIBOR Portion is to continue as a LIBOR Portion, in which event such Borrower shall notify the Bank of the new Interest Period selected therefor; and in the event neither Borrower shall so notify the Bank, such LIBOR Portion shall automatically be converted into and added to the Base Rate Portion as of and on the last day of such Interest Period.

Section 2.2. Computation of Interest. Interest on the Base Rate Portion of the Note shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, for the actual number of days elapsed. Interest on the LIBOR Portions of the Note shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days for the actual number of days elapsed.

Section 2.3. Manner of Rate Selection. Either Borrower shall notify the Bank by 11:00 a.m. at least three Business Days prior to the date upon which such Borrower requests that any LIBOR Portion be created or that any part of the Base Rate Portion be converted into a LIBOR Portion (each such notice to specify in each instance the amount thereof and the Interest Period selected therefor). All requests for the creation, continuance, and conversion of Portions under this Agreement shall be irrevocable. Such requests may be written or oral and the Bank is hereby authorized to honor telephonic requests for creations, continuances, and conversions received by it from any person the Bank in good faith believes to be an Authorized Representative without the necessity of independent investigation, the Borrowers hereby jointly and severally indemnifying the Bank from any liability or loss ensuing from so acting.

Section 2.4. Change of Law. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement or the Note, if at any time the Bank shall determine in good faith that any Change in Law, makes it unlawful for the Bank to create or continue to maintain any LIBOR Portion for any Interest Period, it shall promptly so notify the Borrowers and the obligation of the Bank to create, continue, or maintain any such LIBOR Portion under this Agreement shall be suspended until it is no longer unlawful for the Bank to create, continue, or maintain such LIBOR Portion for an Interest Period with the duration of such Interest Period. If the continued maintenance of any such LIBOR Portion is unlawful, the Borrowers shall prepay on demand to the Bank the outstanding principal amount of the affected LIBOR Portion together with all interest accrued thereon and all other amounts payable to the Bank with respect thereto under this Agreement; provided, however, that the relevant Borrower may elect to convert the principal amount of the affected Portion into the Base Rate Portion subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

Section 2.5. Unavailability of Deposits or Inability to Ascertain Adjusted LIBOR; Inadequacy of Adjusted LIBOR. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or the Note, if prior to the commencement of any Interest Period, the Bank shall determine in good faith that deposits in the amount of any LIBOR Portion scheduled to be outstanding during such Interest Period are not readily available to the Bank in the relevant market or, by reason of circumstances affecting the relevant market, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining Adjusted LIBOR for such Interest Period, or that LIBOR as determined hereby will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Bank of funding any LIBOR Portion for such Interest Period or that the making or funding of any LIBOR Portions has become impracticable, then the Bank shall promptly give notice thereof to the Borrowers and the obligation of the Bank to create, continue, or effect by conversion any such LIBOR Portion in such amount and for such Interest Period shall be suspended until deposits in such amount and for the Interest Period selected by the relevant Borrower shall again be readily available in the relevant market and adequate and reasonable means exist for ascertaining Adjusted LIBOR for such Interest Period.

Section 2.6. Increased Cost and Reduced Return. If any Change in Law shall:

(i)subject the Bank (or its lending office) or any issuer of Letter(s) of Credit to any tax, duty or other charge with respect to its Loans bearing interest at the Adjusted LIBOR rate (“Eurodollar Loans”), its Notes, its Letter(s) of Credit, any reimbursement obligations owed to it under Applications or its obligation to make Eurodollar Loans, issue a Letter(s) of Credit or shall change the basis of taxation of payments to the Bank (or its lending office) or any issuer of Letters of Credit if the principal of or interest on its Eurodollar Loans, Letter(s) of Credit or any other amounts due under this Agreement or any other Loan Document in respect of its Eurodollar Loans, Letter(s) of Credit, any participation therein, any reimbursement obligations owed to it under Applications, or its obligation to make Eurodollar Loans, or to issue Letter(s) of Credit (except for changes in the rate of tax on the overall net income of the Bank or its lending office or the issuer of Letters of Credit imposed by the jurisdiction in which the Bank’s or the issuer of Letters of Credit’s principal executive office or lending office is located); or

(ii)impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement (including, without limitation, any such requirement imposed by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, but excluding with respect to any Eurodollar Loans any such requirement included in an applicable Reserve Percentage) against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, the Bank (or its lending office) or the issuer of Letters of Credit or shall impose on the Bank (or its lending office) or the issuer of Letters of Credit or on the interbank market any other condition affecting its Eurodollar Loans, its Notes, its Letter(s) of Credit, any reimbursement obligation owed to it under Applications, or its obligation to make Eurodollar Loans, or to issue Letter(s) of Credit;

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to the Bank (or its lending office) or the issuer of Letters of Credit of making or maintaining any Eurodollar Loan, issuing or maintaining a Letter of Credit or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by the Bank (or its lending office) or the issuer of Letter(s) of Credit under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document with respect thereto, by an amount deemed by the Bank or the issuer of Letters of Credit to be material, then, within 15 days after demand by the Bank or issuer of Letters of Credit (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), the Borrowers, jointly and severally, shall be obligated to pay to the Bank or issuer of Letter(s) of Credit such additional amount or amounts reasonably determined by the Bank or the issuer of the Letters of Credit as will compensate the Bank or issuer of Letter(s) of Credit for such increased cost or reduction. If the Bank or such issuer makes such a claim for compensation, it shall provide to the Borrowers a certificate setting forth the computation of the additional amount demanded in reasonable detail and such certificate shall constitute prima facie evidence of such additional amount if reasonably determined. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrowers shall not be required to compensate the Bank or the issuer of Letters of Credit pursuant to this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than four months prior to the date that the Bank or the Letter of Credit issuer, as the case may be, notifies the Borrowers of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions, and of the Bank’s or the Letter of Credit issuer’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the four-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

Section 2.7. Change in Capital Adequacy Requirements. If the Bank or issuer of Letters of Credit determines that any Change in Law affecting the Bank or the issuer of Letters of Credit or any lending office of the Bank or the Bank’s or the issuer of Letters of Credit’s holding company, if any, regarding capital requirements, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on the Bank’s or the issuer of Letters of Credit’s capital or on the capital of the Bank’s or the issuer of Letters of Credit’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitments of the Bank or the Loans made by the Bank, or the Letters of Credit issued by the issuer of Letters of Credit, to a level below that which the Bank or the issuer of Letters of Credit or the Bank’s or issuer of Letters of Credit’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration the Bank’s or issuer of Letters of Credit’s policies and the policies of its holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time, within 15 days after demand by the Bank or the issuer of Letters of Credit, the Borrowers shall pay to the Bank or the issuer of Letters of Credit, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts reasonably determined by the Bank or the issuer of the Letters of Credit as will compensate the Bank or the issuer of Letters of Credit or its holding company for any such reduction suffered. If the Bank or such issuer makes such a claim for compensation, it shall provide to the Borrowers a certificate setting forth the computation of the additional amount demanded in reasonable detail and such certificate shall constitute prima facie evidence of such additional amount if reasonably determined. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrowers shall not be required to compensate the Bank or the issuer of Letters of Credit pursuant to this Section for any reductions suffered more than four months prior to the date that the Bank or the Letter of Credit issuer, as the case may be, notifies the Borrowers of the Change in Law giving rise to such reductions, and of the Bank’s or the Letter of Credit issuer’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such reductions is retroactive, then the four-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

Section 2.8. Funding Indemnity. In the event the Bank shall incur any loss (other than lost profits), cost, or expense (including, without limitation, any loss, cost, or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired or contracted to be acquired by the Bank to fund or maintain any LIBOR Portion or the relending or reinvesting of such deposits or other funds or amounts paid or prepaid to the Bank) as a result of:

(i)any payment or conversion of a LIBOR Portion on a date other than the last day of the then applicable Interest Period for any reason, whether before or after default, and whether or not such payment is required by any provision of this Agreement; or

(ii)any failure by either Borrower to create, borrow, continue, or effect by conversion a LIBOR Portion on the date specified in a notice given pursuant to this Agreement;

then upon the demand of the Bank, the Borrowers shall pay to the Bank such amount as will reimburse the Bank for such loss, cost, or expense. If the Bank requests such a reimbursement, it shall provide to the Borrowers a certificate setting forth the computation of the loss, cost, or expense giving rise to the request for reimbursement in reasonable detail and such certificate shall constitute prima facie evidence of such loss, cost or expense if reasonably determined.

Section 2.9. Lending Branch. The Bank may, at its option, elect to make, fund or maintain Portions of the Loans hereunder at such of its branches or offices as the Bank may from time to time elect; provided, that if the Bank at its option (not when required by this Agreement) designates an alternative lending office or branch as described above, to the extent such designation would at the time of such redesignation require the Borrowers to pay any amounts pursuant to Section 2.4, 2.6, 2.7 or 11.1 hereof in excess of that for which the Borrowers would have already been liable had such alternative office or branch not been used, the Borrowers shall not be liable for such increased amounts.

All such payments shall be made in lawful money of the United States of America, in immediately available funds at the place of payment, without set-off or counterclaim and without reduction for, and free from, any and all present or future taxes (except for income or franchise taxes as set forth in Section 11.1 hereof), levies, imposts, duties, fees, charges, deductions, withholdings, restrictions, and conditions of any nature imposed by any government or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof (but excluding any taxes imposed on or measured by the net income or gross receipts of the Bank). Unless either Borrower otherwise directs, principal payments shall be applied first to the Base Rate Portion until payment in full thereof, with any balance applied to the LIBOR Portions in the order in which their Interest Periods expire. Each Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes the Bank to (a) charge from time to time any of the Borrower’s deposit accounts with the Bank and/or (b) make Loans from time to time hereunder (and any such Loan may be made by the Bank hereunder without regard to the provisions of Section 7 hereof), in each case for payment of any Obligation then due and payable (whether such Obligation is for interest then due on a Loan, reimbursement under an Application, or otherwise); provided, that the Bank shall not be under any obligation to charge any such deposit account or make any such Loan under this Section, and the Bank shall incur no liability to the Borrowers or any other Person for its failure to do so. The Bank agrees to use reasonable efforts to provide the Borrowers with prompt written notice of any such charge made or Loan advanced pursuant to the preceding sentence.

For purposes of this definition, LIBOR Portions shall be deemed to be Eurocurrency liabilities as defined in Regulation D without benefit of or credit for prorations, exemptions or offsets under Regulation D. “LIBOR” means, for each Interest Period, (a) the LIBOR Index Rate for such Interest Period, if such rate is available, and (b) if the LIBOR Index Rate cannot be determined, the arithmetic average of the rates of interest per annum (rounded upward, if necessary, to the nearest 1/100th of 1%) at which deposits in U.S. Dollars in immediately available funds are offered to the Bank at 11:00 a.m. (London, England time) two Business Days before the beginning of such Interest Period by three or more major banks in the interbank eurodollar market selected by the Bank for a period equal to such Interest Period and in an amount equal or comparable to the applicable LIBOR Portion scheduled to be outstanding from the Bank during such Interest Period. “LIBOR Index Rate” means, for any Interest Period, the rate per annum (rounded upwards, if necessary, to the next higher one hundred-thousandth of a percentage point) for deposits in U.S. Dollars for a period equal to such Interest Period which appears on the LIBOR01 Page as of 11:00 a.m. (London, England time) on the date two Business Days before the commencement of such Interest Period. “LIBOR01 Page” means the display designated as “LIBOR01 Page” on the Reuters Service (or such other page as may replace LIBOR01 Page on that service or such other service as may be nominated by the British Bankers’ Association as the information vendor for the purpose of displaying British Bankers’ Association Interest Settlement Rates for U.S. Dollar deposits). Each determination of LIBOR made by the Bank shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error.

“Affiliate” means any Person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by, or under direct or indirect common control with, another Person. A Person shall be deemed to control another Person for the purposes of this definition if such Person possesses, directly or indirectly, the power to direct, or cause the direction of, the management and policies of the other Person, whether through the ownership of voting securities, common directors, trustees or officers, by contract or otherwise.

“Agreement” means this Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, as the same may be amended, modified, or restated from time to time in accordance with the terms hereof.

Level	Total Leverage Ratio for Such Pricing Date	Applicable Margin for Base Rate Portions of Loans shall be:	Applicable Margin for LIBOR Portions of Loans and Letter of Credit Fees shall be:	Applicable Margin for Commitment Fee shall be:
IV	Greater than or equal to 2.5 to 1.00	0.75%	1.75%	0.25%

For purposes hereof, the term “Pricing Date” means, for any fiscal quarter of the Borrowers ending on or after September 30, 2013, the date on which the Bank is in receipt of the Borrowers’ most recent financial statements (and, in the case of the year-end financial statements, audit report) for the fiscal quarter then ended, pursuant to Section 8.4 hereof. The Applicable Margin shall be established based on the Total Leverage Ratio for the most recently completed fiscal quarter and the Applicable Margin established on a Pricing Date shall remain in effect until the next Pricing Date. If the Borrowers have not delivered their financial statements by the date such financial statements (and, in the case of the year-end financial statements, audit report) are required to be delivered under Section 8.4 hereof, until such financial statements and audit report are delivered, the Applicable Margin shall be the highest Applicable Margin (i.e., Level IV shall apply). If the Borrowers subsequently deliver such financial statements before the next Pricing Date, the Applicable Margin established by such late delivered financial statements shall take effect from the date of delivery until the next Pricing Date. In all other circumstances, the Applicable Margin established by such financial statements shall be in effect from the Pricing Date that occurs immediately after the end of the fiscal quarter covered by such financial statements until the next Pricing Date. Each determination of the Applicable Margin made by the Bank in accordance with the foregoing shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrowers and the Bank if reasonably determined. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, as a result of any restatement of or other adjustment to the financial statements of the Borrowers or for any other reason, the Bank determines that (a) the Total Leverage Ratio as calculated on any Pricing Date was inaccurate and (b) a proper calculation of the Total Leverage Ratio would have resulted in a higher Applicable Margin for any period, then the Borrowers shall automatically and retroactively be obligated to pay to the Bank for the benefit of the Bank, promptly on demand by the Bank, an amount equal to the excess of the amount of interest and fees that should have been paid for such period over the amount of interest and fees actually paid for such period.

(h)any other act or omission to act or delay of any kind by the Bank or any other Person or any other circumstance whatsoever that might, but for the provisions of this paragraph, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of the obligations of the Guarantors under the Loan Documents.

Section 10.3. Discharge Only Upon Payment in Full; Reinstatement in Certain Circumstances. Each Guarantor’s obligations under this Section 10 shall remain in full force and effect until the Commitment is terminated and the principal of and interest on the Note and all other amounts payable by the Borrowers under this Agreement and all other Loan Documents shall have been paid in full. If at any time any payment of the principal of or interest on the Note or any other amount payable by the Borrowers under the Loan Documents is rescinded or must be otherwise restored or returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of either Borrower or of any Guarantor, or otherwise, each Guarantor’s obligations under this Section 10 with respect to such payment shall be reinstated at such time as though such payment had become due but had not been made at such time.

(b)Subrogation and Contribution. Each Guarantor hereby agrees not to exercise or enforce any right of exoneration, contribution, reimbursement, recourse or subrogation available to such Guarantor against any Person liable for payment of the Guarantied Liabilities, or as to any security therefor, unless and until the full amount owing on the Guarantied Liabilities has been paid and the Commitment has terminated; and the payment by such Guarantor of any amount pursuant to any of the Loan Documents on account of credit extended to either Borrower shall not in any way entitle such Guarantor to any right, title or interest (whether by way of subrogation or otherwise) in and to any of the Guarantied Liabilities or any proceeds thereof or any security therefor unless and until the full amount owing on the Guarantied Liabilities has been paid and the Commitment has terminated.

Section 10.5. Limit on Recovery. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof or of the Note, the right of recovery against each Guarantor under this Section 10 or against a Borrower on the Note issued by it shall not (to the extent required by or as may be necessary or desirable to ensure the enforceability against such Guarantor of its obligations hereunder or thereunder in accordance with the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation or where it carries on business) exceed (x) the amount which would render such Guarantor’s obligations under this Section 10 and the Note void or voidable under applicable law, including without limitation fraudulent conveyance law minus (y) $1.00.

The obligations of each Qualified ECP Guarantor under this Section shall remain in full force and effect until discharged in accordance with the provisions of its Guaranty Agreement. Each Qualified ECP Guarantor intends that this Section constitute, and this Section shall be deemed to constitute, a “keepwell, support, or other agreement” for the benefit of each other Guarantor for all purposes of Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity Exchange Act.

Section 11.Miscellaneous.

Section 11.1. Withholding Taxes. Except as otherwise required by law, each payment by either Borrower under this Agreement and under any other Loan Document shall be made without withholding for or on account of any present or future taxes (other than overall net income taxes and franchise taxes on the recipient or any taxes imposed under Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code) imposed by or within the jurisdiction in which such Borrower is domiciled, any jurisdiction from which such Borrower makes any payment, or (in each case) any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein. If any such withholding is so required, the Borrowers shall make the withholding, pay the amount withheld to the appropriate governmental authority before penalties attach thereto or interest accrues thereon, provided that the Bank has provided any forms required to provide an exemption from withholding (unless the failure to provide such forms is a result of a change in law occurring after the date hereof), and forthwith pay such additional amount as may be necessary to ensure that the net amount actually received by the Bank free and clear of such taxes (including such taxes on such additional amount) is equal to the amount which the Bank would have received had such withholding not been made. If the Bank pays any amount in respect of any such taxes, penalties or interest, the Borrowers shall reimburse the Bank for that payment on demand in the currency in which such payment was made. If either Borrower pays any such taxes, penalties or interest, it shall deliver official tax receipts evidencing that payment or certified copies thereof to the Bank on or before the thirtieth day after payment.

Section 11.2. Non-Business Day. If any payment hereunder becomes due and payable on a day which is not a Business Day, the due date of such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day on which date such payment shall be due and payable. In the case of any payment of principal falling due on a day which is not a Business Day, interest on such principal amount shall continue to accrue during such extension at the rate per annum then in effect, which accrued amount shall be due and payable on the next scheduled date for the payment of interest.

Section 11.3. No Waiver, Cumulative Remedies. No delay or failure on the part of the Bank or on the part of the holder of the Obligations in the exercise of any power or right shall operate as a waiver thereof or as an acquiescence in any default, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any power or right preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other power or right. The rights and remedies hereunder of the Bank and of any other holder of the Obligations are cumulative to, and not exclusive of, any rights or remedies which any of them would otherwise have.

Section 11.4. Amendments, Etc. No amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or of any other Loan Document, nor consent to any departure by the Borrowers therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Bank. No notice to or demand on the Borrowers in any case shall entitle the Borrowers to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.

Section 11.5. Costs and Expenses; Indemnification. The Borrowers agree to pay jointly and severally on demand the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Bank in connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution and delivery of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the other instruments and documents to be delivered hereunder or thereunder, and in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, and in connection with any consents hereunder or waivers or amendments hereto or thereto, including the reasonable and documented fees and expenses of counsel for the Bank with respect to all of the foregoing (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated). The Borrowers further agree to pay jointly and severally to the Bank all costs and expenses (including court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees), if any, incurred or paid by the Bank in connection with any Default or Event of Default or in connection with the enforcement of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or any other instrument or document delivered hereunder or thereunder. The Borrowers further agree to indemnify the Bank, and any security trustee, and their respective directors, officers and employees, against all losses, claims, damages, penalties, judgments, liabilities and expenses (including, without limitation, all expenses of litigation or preparation therefor, whether or not the indemnified Person is a party thereto) which any of them may pay or incur arising out of or relating to any Loan Document or any of the transactions contemplated thereby or the direct or indirect application or proposed application of the proceeds of any extension of credit made available hereunder (including, without limitation, environmental problems), with such indemnity to include reasonable attorneys’ fees (for a single firm for all indemnified persons (unless there is an actual or perceived conflict of interest, in which case such affected persons, taken as a whole, may retain one conflicts counsel); provided that no indemnified person shall be indemnified for any loss, claim, damage, penalty, judgment, liability or expense to the extent arising out of (i) the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such person or any of its controlled affiliates or any of the officers, directors, employees, agents, advisors or other representatives of any of the foregoing (such persons, the “Related Parties” of each indemnified person), in each case, acting at the direction of such indemnified person (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable judgment), (ii) a material breach in bad faith of funding obligations under this Agreement by such persons (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable judgment) or (iii) from any dispute among indemnified persons. The Borrowers, upon demand by the Bank at any time, shall reimburse the Bank for any legal or other expenses incurred in connection with investigating or defending against any of the foregoing except if the same is directly due to the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of the party to be indemnified or its Related Parties. The obligations of the Borrowers under this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

Section 11.6. Documentary Taxes.
