outstanding principal balance of the Revolving Loan and shall be considered correct and binding on Borrower provided, however, that the failure to make such recordation with respect to any Revolving Advance or payment shall not limit or otherwise
affect the obligations of Borrower under this Agreement or the Revolving Credit Note. With respect to the Revolving Loan, Borrower shall pay to the Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Lenders, a fee on the first day of each 

  

 4 








 
month and on the Maturity Date, in an amount equal to one-quarter of one percent (.25%) per annum of the difference between the Revolving Loan Commitment and

hereby deleted and each is replaced with “Intentionally Omitted”. 
 E. Section 2.3(a) of the Loan Agreement is hereby deleted

 Section 2.3(a) Interest Provisions. 
 (a) Commencing with the first such date following the date of this Agreement, Borrower promises to pay interest to the Agent, on the outstanding and
unpaid principal balances of the Revolving Loan, at a rate per annum equal to, at the option of Borrower, (i) the Prime Rate or (ii) the LIBOR Rate plus the LIBOR Spread (the “LIBOR Spread”) as set forth in the following table:

  

							
	 	 	 Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio

 Changes in the LIBOR Spread resulting from a change in the above ratios shall become effective on
the due date of delivery by the Borrower of a compliance certificate evidencing such change. If the Borrower shall fail to timely deliver a compliance certificate within five days of such certificate’s due date in accordance with
Section 5.8(c) of this Agreement, the LIBOR Spread shall be 225 basis points from the day such certificate was due until the day a certificate evidencing a lower LIBOR Spread is actually delivered to the Lender. Each Revolving Advance
shall be comprised entirely of a Prime Rate Advance or a LIBOR Rate Advance as Borrower may request pursuant to Section 2.4. Borrower shall not be entitled to request any Revolving Advance which, if made, would result in more than six
(6) LIBOR Rate Advances outstanding hereunder at any time. For purposes of the foregoing, LIBOR Rate Advances having different Interest Periods, regardless of whether they commence on the same date, shall be considered separate LIBOR Rate
Advances. Each LIBOR Rate Advance shall be in a principal amount of $500,000 (or the equivalent in an Alternative Currency) or in $50,000 (or the equivalent in an Alternative Currency) increments in excess thereof.

 F. Section 2.4(a) and 2.4(b) are hereby amended by deleting the phrases “or a BV Advance”
and “or BV Advance” wherever they appear. 
 G. Section 2.5 is hereby amended by deleting the phrase “and BV Loans”
wherever it appears. 
 H. Section 2.8 is hereby deleted and replaced with the following: 
 Section 2.8 Collection of Funds. All proceeds of notes, instruments, Inventory and Receivables of Borrower shall be collected into a lockbox
account established by Borrower with the Agent pursuant to the Lockbox Agreement (the “Lockbox Account”). Promptly after the execution of this Agreement, Borrower shall direct each of its Account Debtors to make all payments to Borrower
directly into the Lockbox Account. Borrower shall hold in trust for the Agent and immediately remit to the Agent by depositing the same into the Lockbox Account all checks, notes, cash and other proceeds of its Receivables as well as all proceeds
from the sale of inventory, securities (other than securities issued by Borrower) and other Collateral and other cash receipts of every kind and nature (other than the proceeds of other borrowings expressly permitted by this Agreement). Borrower
agrees that all payments received in the Lockbox Account will be the sole and exclusive property of the Agent. The Agent shall on the Business Day on which any payment is received into the Lockbox Account, and on a provisional basis until the final
receipt of good funds, credit such payments to the principal amount of the outstanding Revolving Advances as a prepayment of such Revolving Advances. Any such provisional credit is subject to reversal if the final collection of a payment is not
received by the Agent within five (5) Business Days following the initial receipt of such payment and will thereafter be credited when such payment is actually received in good funds. If at the time of any such credit there are no outstanding
Revolving Advances such credit shall (i) if a Default or an Event of Default shall exist, be credited to a cash collateral account under the sole dominion and control of the Agent until such Default or Event of Default is cured by Borrower or
waived by Agent or (ii) subject to the provisions of Section 2.2B(d), to amounts due on the Mortgage Loan, in each case in the inverse order of maturity, (iii) be applied to cash collateralize any outstanding Letters of Credit, or
(iv) otherwise be made to Borrower’s regular account with Lender. 
 I. Section 2.17 is hereby deleted and replaced with the
following: 
 Use of Proceeds. The proceeds of the Revolving Loans made hereunder shall be used by Borrower for Borrower’s short
term working capital requirements. The proceeds of the Mortgage Loan were used to refinance existing mortgage debt of Borrower in favor of a third party lender. Borrower will not, directly or indirectly, use any part of the proceeds of any of the
Loans for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any margin stock within the meaning of Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System or to extend credit to any Person for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any such margin
stock. 
 J. Section 2.25 is hereby deleted and replaced with “Intentionally Omitted”.

 “Default” shall mean any event or condition the occurrence of which would, with the lapse of time or the giving of notice, or both,

property securing an obligation owed to, or a claim by, a Person other than the owner of the property, whether such interest is based on the common law, statute or contract, and including but not limited to the security interest lien arising from a
security agreement, mortgage, encumbrance, pledge, conditional sale or trust receipt or a lease, consignment or bailment for security purposes. 







 “Obligations” shall mean all indebtedness, advances, obligations and liabilities of

 This Agreement shall be governed by the following rules of interpretation: The use of any gender shall include all genders. The singular number shall
include the plural and the plural the singular as the context may require. Whenever the context may require, any pronouns used herein shall include the corresponding masculine, feminine or neuter forms. The words “include,”
“including,” and “such as” shall each be construed as if followed by the phrases “without being limited to.” The words “herein,” “hereof,” “hereunder” and words of similar import shall be
construed to refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular Section hereof unless expressly so stated. The section headings herein are for convenience of reference only and shall not affect in any way the interpretation of any of the
provisions hereof. 
 II. Pledge. The Pledgor hereby pledges and grants a security interest to Lender in the Pledged Collateral, now
existing and hereafter arising or acquired, as security for the payment and performance of the Obligations. 
 III. Delivery of the
Shares. The Shares have been previously delivered to the Lender accompanied by duly executed instruments of transfer, or assignment in blank, with signatures appropriately guaranteed, accompanied by any required transfer tax stamps, all in form
and substance satisfactory to Lender. Lender may at any time in its discretion, without notice to the Pledgor, transfer or register in the name of the Lender or any of its nominees any or all of the Shares. 







 IV. Representations and Warranties. The Pledgor represents and warrants that: 
 A. The Pledgor owns all of the Pledged Collateral, free and clear of any Liens other than the Security Interest. The equity interests shown on Schedule
A, are all of the Pledged Collateral. All of such equity interests have been duly authorized and validly issued, are fully paid and non-assessable, and none of such equity interests are subject to options to purchase or similar rights of any
Person. The remaining equity interests of the Entities formed under the law of any jurisdiction outside the United States of America or Canada are set forth on Schedule B. 
 B. There are no restrictions upon the voting rights or upon the transfer of any of the Shares other than as may appear on the face of the certificates
evidencing the Shares or as provided under applicable state, federal or foreign securities laws. The Pledgor has the right to vote, pledge and grant a security interest in or otherwise transfer such Pledged Collateral free of any encumbrances. The
Pledgor is not a party to or otherwise bound by any agreement, other than this Agreement, which restricts in any manner the rights of any present or future holder of any of the Shares with respect thereto. 
 C. Lender has a valid perfected first priority security interest in all of the Pledged Collateral, subject to no prior Lien. No registration, recordation
or filing with any governmental body, agency or authority is required in connection with the execution or delivery of this Agreement or necessary for the validity or enforceability hereof or for the perfection or enforcement of the Security
Interest. 
 V. Authority. The Pledgor hereby appoints the Lender as its attorney-in-fact to arrange, at Lender’s option, for the
transfer upon, or at any time after, the existence or occurrence of an Event of Default, of the Pledged Collateral on the books of the Pledgor or on the books of each of the Entities to the name of the Lender or to the name of the Lender’s
nominee. 
 VI. Certain Restrictions. Neither the Pledgor nor any Affiliate or Associate of the Pledgor shall sell, transfer or grant
any rights with respect to any equity interests in the Entities or any subsidiary of the Entities without the prior written consent of Lender. 
 VII. Voting Rights; Dividends. 
 A. During the term of this Agreement, and so long as there shall not occur a Default or an
Event of Default: 
 1. the Pledgor shall have the right to vote the Shares on all corporate questions for all purposes not inconsistent with
the terms of this Agreement or the Financing Documents and, to that end, if Lender transfers the Shares into its name or the name of its nominee, Lender shall, upon the request of the Pledgor, unless a Default or an Event of Default shall have
occurred, execute and deliver or cause to be executed and delivered to the Pledgor proxies with respect to the Shares; and 







 2. the Pledgor may receive and retain any and all dividends or other distributions paid in respect of the
Pledged Collateral; provided, however, that any and all (A) dividends and interest paid or payable other than in cash in respect of, and instruments and other property received, receivable or otherwise distributed in respect of or
in exchange for, any Pledged Collateral, (B) dividends and other distributions paid or payable in cash in respect of any Pledged Collateral in connection with a partial or total liquidation or dissolution or in connection with a reduction of
capital, capital surplus or paid-in surplus and (C) cash paid, payable or otherwise distributed in any permitted redemption of, or permitted exchange of, any Pledged Collateral, shall be, and shall forthwith be delivered to or at the direction
of the Lender to hold as Pledged Collateral and shall, if received by the Pledgor, be received in trust for the benefit of the Lender, shall be segregated from the other property or funds of the Pledgor, and shall be forthwith delivered to or at the
direction of the Lender in the exact form received with any necessary endorsement and/or appropriate stock powers duly executed in blank, to be held by the Lender as Pledged Collateral and as further collateral security for the Obligations;

 B. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default: 
 1. the Lender shall thereafter be entitled to exercise all voting powers pertaining to the Shares and all proxies theretofore executed by Lender shall terminate and thereafter be null and void and of no effect
whatsoever, and the Pledgor, forthwith upon the request of the Lender, shall secure (if not already secured by the Lender) executed resignations of the officers and directors of the Pledgor and of the Entities in order that the Lender may elect the
officers and directors of the Pledgor and of the Entities designated by Lender; and 
 2. all rights of the Pledgor to receive the dividends,
payments or other distributions which it would otherwise be authorized to receive and retain pursuant to Section 7(a)(ii), shall cease, and all such rights shall thereupon become vested in the Lender which shall thereupon have the sole right to
receive and hold as Pledged Collateral such dividends and interest payments; and 
 3. all dividends and interest payments which are received
by the Pledgor contrary to the provisions of this Section 7 shall be received in trust for the benefit of the Lender, shall be segregated from other funds of the Pledgor, and shall be forthwith paid over to the Lender as Pledged Collateral in
the exact form received with any necessary endorsement and/or appropriate stock powers duly executed in blank, to be held by or on behalf of the Lender as Pledged Collateral and as further collateral security for the Obligations. 







 VIII. Subsequent Changes Affecting Pledged Collateral. The Pledgor represents to the Lender that
the Pledgor has made its own arrangements for keeping informed of changes or potential changes affecting the Pledged Collateral (including, but not limited to, rights to convert, rights to subscribe, payment of dividends, reorganization or other
exchanges, tender offers and voting rights), and the Pledgor agrees that the Lender shall have no responsibility or liability for informing the Pledgor of any such changes or potential changes or for taking any action or omitting to take any action
with respect thereto. The Lender may, upon or at any time after the occurrence of an Event of Default, without notice and at its option, transfer or register the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof into its or its nominee’s name with or
without any indication that such Pledged Collateral is subject to the security interest hereunder. 
 IX. Shares Adjustments; Warrants and
Rights; Dividends. In the event that, during the term of this Agreement, (a) any stock dividend, reclassification, recapitalization, readjustment or other change is declared or made in the capital structure of the Pledgor or of any of the
Entities, (b) any option included within the Pledged Collateral is exercised, (c) the Pledgor or any of the Entities issue any additional or substitute shares of its capital stock, (d) subscription rights, options, warrants or any
other rights shall be issued or exercised in connection with the Pledged Collateral, or (e) if the Pledgor shall otherwise receive or be entitled to receive any (i) shares of capital stock of any of the Entities, (ii) promissory note
or other instrument by virtue of its being or having been an owner of any Pledged Collateral, (iii) payment of dividends or other distribution payable in cash or in securities or other property (but only to the extent permitted under
subparagraph 7(ii) hereof), or (iv) payment of dividends or other distribution in connection with a partial or total liquidation or dissolution or in connection with a reduction of capital, capital surplus or paid-in surplus, all such shares,
promissory notes, instruments, options, warrants, rights, dividends, payments or distributions and all new stock or other securities so acquired by the Pledgor as a result of any of the foregoing, shall be immediately pledged and assigned by the
Pledgor to the Lender and immediately delivered to and held by Lender under the terms of this Agreement in the same manner as the Pledged Collateral originally pledged hereunder; and in the event that the Pledgor shall receive such shares,
promissory notes, instruments, options, warrants, rights, dividends, payments or distributions, the same shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Lender, and the Pledgor shall segregate them from the Pledgor’s other property and shall
deliver the same forthwith to or at the direction of the Lender in the exact form received, with any necessary endorsement and/or appropriate stock powers duly executed in blank, to be held by or on behalf of the Lender as Pledged Collateral.
Nothing contained in this Section shall be deemed to permit any issuance of stock, subscription rights, options, warrants or any other rights, or any stock dividend, reclassification, readjustment or other change in the capital structure of the
Pledgor or of any of the Entities which is not expressly permitted in the Financing Documents. 
 X. Registration. In the event that
Lender determines that it is advisable to register under or otherwise comply in any way with the Securities Act of 1933 or any similar Federal or State Law, or if such registration or compliance is required with respect to the securities included in
the Pledged Collateral prior to the sale thereof by Lender, upon or at any time after the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Pledgor will use its best efforts to cause such registration to be effectively made, at no expense to Lender, and to
continue such registration effective for such time as may be reasonably necessary in the option of the Lender, and will reimburse Lender for any expense incurred by Lender, including reasonable attorneys’ and accountants’ fees and
expenses, in connection therewith. 







 XI. Default. 
 A. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Lender shall have, in addition to any other rights given by law or the rights hereunder or in the Financing Documents, all of the rights
and remedies with respect to the Pledged Collateral of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code. In addition, with respect to the Pledged Collateral, or any part thereof, which shall then be or shall thereafter come into the possession or
custody of the Lender, the Lender may sell the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof at public or private sale or at any broker’s board or on any securities exchange, for cash, upon credit (without assumption of any credit risk) or for future
delivery, and at such price or prices as the Lender may deem satisfactory. Lender may be the purchaser of any or all of the Pledged Collateral so sold at any public sale (or, if the Pledged Collateral is of a type customarily sold in a recognized
market or is of a type which is the subject of widely distributed standard price quotations, at any private sale). 
 B. The Pledgor
recognizes that the Lender may deem it impracticable to effect a public sale of all or any part of the Pledged Collateral or any other securities constituting Pledged Collateral and that the Lender may, therefore, determine to make one or more
private sales of any such securities to a restricted group of purchasers who will be obligated to agree, among other things, to acquire such securities for their own account, for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof.
The Lender is authorized, in connection with any sale of the Pledged Collateral, if it deems it advisable so to do, (i) to restrict the prospective bidders on or purchasers of any of the Shares to a limited number of sophisticated investors who
will represent and agree that they are purchasing for their own account for investment and not with a view to the distribution or sale of any of such Shares, (ii) to cause to be placed on certificates for any or all of the Shares or on any
other securities pledged hereunder a legend to the effect that such security has not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933 and may not be disposed of in violation of the provision of said Act, and (iii) to impose such other
limitations or conditions in connection with any such sale as the Lender deems necessary or advisable in order to comply with said Act or any other law. The Pledgor acknowledges that any such private sale may be at prices and on terms less favorable
to the seller than the prices and other terms which might have been obtained at a public sale and, notwithstanding the foregoing, agrees that such private sales shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner and that the
Lender shall have no obligation to delay sale of any such securities for the period of time necessary to permit the issuer of such securities to register such securities for public sale under the Securities Act of 1933. 
 C. The Pledgor covenants and agrees that it will execute and deliver such documents and take such other action as the Lender deems necessary or advisable
in order that any sale hereunder may be made in compliance with law. 







 D. Upon any sale hereunder the Lender shall have the right to deliver, assign and transfer to the
purchaser thereof the Pledged Collateral so sold. Each purchaser at such sale shall hold the Pledged Collateral so sold absolutely and free from any claim or right of whatsoever kind, including any equity or right of redemption of the Pledgor which
may be waived, and the Pledgor, to the extent permitted by law, hereby specifically waive all rights of redemption, stay or appraisal which they have or may have under any law now existing or hereafter adopted. 
 E. Unless the Collateral threatens to decline speedily in value or is or becomes of a type sold on a recognized market, Lender will give the Pledgor
reasonable notice of the time and place of any public sale thereof, or of the time after which any private sale or other intended disposition is to be made. Any requirements of reasonable notice shall be met if such notice is sent to the Lender in
conformity with Section 23 hereof, at least ten (10) days before the time of the sale or disposition. Any other requirement of notice, demand or advertisement for sale is, to the extent permitted by law, waived. The notice (if any) of any
sale hereunder shall (1) in case of a public sale, state the time and place fixed for such sale, (2) in case of sale at a broker’s board or on a securities exchange, state the board or exchange at which such sale is to be made and the
day on which the Pledged Collateral, or the portion thereof so being sold, will first be offered for sale at such board or exchange, and (3) in the case of a private sale, state the day after which such sale may be consummated. Any such public
sale shall be held at such time or times within ordinary business hours and at such place or places as the Lender may fix in the notice of such sale. At any such sale the Pledged Collateral may be sold in one lot as an entirety or in separate
parcels, as the Lender may determine. The Lender shall not be obligated to make any such sale pursuant to any such notice. The Lender may, without notice or publication, adjourn any public or private sale or cause the same to be adjourned from time
to time by announcement at the time and place fixed for the sale, and such sale may be made at any time or place to which the same may be so adjourned. In case of any sale of all or any part of the Pledged Collateral on credit or for future
delivery, the Pledged Collateral so sold may be retained by the Lender until the selling price is paid by the purchaser thereof, but the Lender shall not incur any liability in case of the failure of such purchaser to take up and pay for the Pledged
Collateral so sold and, in case of any such failure, such Pledged Collateral may again be sold upon like notice. The Lender, instead of exercising the power of sale herein conferred upon it, may proceed by a suit or suits at law or in equity to
foreclose the security interest granted under this Agreement and sell the Pledged Collateral, or any portion thereof, under a judgment or decree of a court or courts of competent jurisdiction. 
 XII. Proceeds of Dispositions; Expenses. The Pledgor shall pay to the Lender on demand any and all expenses, including court costs and reasonable
attorneys’ fees and disbursements, incurred or paid by the Lender in protecting, preserving or enforcing the Lender’s rights under or in respect of any of the Pledged Collateral. After deducting all of said expenses, the residue of any
proceeds of collection or sale of the Pledged Collateral shall, to the extent actually received in cash, be applied to the payment of the Obligations in such order or preference as the Lender may determine, proper allowance being made for any
Obligations not then due. Upon the final payment and satisfaction in full of all of the Obligations and after making any payments required by the Uniform Commercial Code of the State of Connecticut, any excess shall be returned to the Pledgor.








 XIII. Waivers. The Pledgor hereby waives notice of acceptance of this Agreement and of extensions
of credit, loans, advances or other financial assistance by the Lender to any Borrowers under the Financing Documents or under any other agreement, note, document or instrument now or at any time or times hereafter executed by any of the Borrowers
and delivered to the Lender. The Pledgor further waives presentment and demand for payment of any of the Obligations, protest and notice of dishonor or default with respect to any of the Obligations, and all other notices and demands of any
description to which the Pledgor might otherwise be entitled except as herein otherwise expressly provided. The Pledgor further waives all defenses based upon suretyship or impairment of collateral. The Lender shall not be deemed to have waived any
of its rights upon or under the Obligations or the Pledged Collateral unless such waiver shall be in writing and signed by the Lender. No delay or omission on the part of the Lender in exercising any right shall operate as a waiver of such right or
any other right. A waiver on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to or waiver of any right on any future occasion. All rights and remedies of the Lender with respect to the Obligations or the Pledged Collateral, whether evidenced hereby
or by any other instrument or papers, shall be cumulative and may be exercised singularly, alternatively, successfully or concurrently at such time or at such times as the Lender deems expedient. 
 XIV. Consent. The Pledgor hereby consents that from time to time, before or after the occurrence or existence of any Default or Event of Default,
with or without notice to or assent from the Pledgor, any other security at any time held by or available to the Lender for any of the Obligations or any other security at any time held by or available to the Lender for any obligation of any other
person, firm or corporation secondarily or otherwise liable for any of the Obligations, may be exchanged, surrendered or released and any of the Obligations may be changed, altered, renewed, extended, continued, surrendered, compromised, waived or
released, in whole or in part, as Lender may see fit, and Pledgor shall remain bound under this Agreement notwithstanding any such exchange, surrender, release, alteration, renewal, extension, continuance, compromise, waiver or inaction, extension
of further credit or other dealing. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Pledgor assents to any extension or postponement of the time of payment or any other indulgence, to the addition or release of any party or person primarily or
secondarily liable, to the acceptance of partial payment on any Obligation, and the settlement, compromising or adjusting of any thereof, all in such manner and at such time or times as the Lender may deem advisable. 
 XV. Limitation of Lender’s Duty. Lender shall have no duty with respect to any Pledged Collateral in its possession or control or in the
possession or control of any agent or bailee, other than the duty to use reasonable care in the safe custody thereof. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Lender shall be under no obligation to take any steps necessary as to
(a) the collection or protection of the Pledged Collateral, (b) the preservation of rights in Pledged Collateral against any other parties, (c) or the preservation of any other rights. Lender may take such steps at its option, but all
expenses incurred in connection therewith shall be for the sole account of the Pledgor. The Lender shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Pledged Collateral in its possession or control if the
Pledged Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which it 








 
accords its own property. Lender shall not be liable or responsible for any loss or damage to any of the Pledged Collateral, or for any diminution in the
value thereof, by reason of the act or omission of any agent or bailee selected by the Lender in good faith. 
 XVI. Term. This
Agreement shall remain in full force and effect until all of the Obligations have been fully paid and satisfied. 
 XVII. Successors and
Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Pledgor, the Lender and its respective successors and assigns, and the transferees and holders of any of the Obligations. This Agreement may be sold, assigned and
transferred to any other person, firm, association or corporation to whom any of the Obligations may be sold, assigned, transferred and when so sold, assigned, negotiated or transferred this Agreement shall apply to, and the Pledged Collateral shall
secure, any credit given, loans or advances made or financial assistance otherwise extended at any time or from time to time by such assignee to Borrower and any notes, mortgages, conditional sale contracts, security agreements or other forms of
obligations and all other debts, obligations and liabilities then or thereafter existing, direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, howsoever evidenced and without limitation as to amount, of the Borrower to such assignee and transferee, and any
renewal or extensions thereof, as if such assignee or transferee had been the original Lender hereunder. 
 XVIII. Applicable Law.
This Agreement shall be governed by and construed under the laws of the State of Connecticut. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but, if any
provision of this Agreement shall be held to be prohibited or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the
remaining provisions of this Agreement. 
 XIX. Service of Process; Consent to Jurisdiction 
 A. The Pledgor represents, warrants and covenants that the Pledgor is subject to service of process in the State of Connecticut and that the Pledgor will
remain subject to such service of process so long as any of the Obligations is outstanding. If for any reason the Pledgor should not be subject to such service of process, the Pledgor hereby designates and appoints, without power of revocation, the
Connecticut Secretary of State as the Pledgor’s agent upon whom may be served all process, pleadings, notices or other papers which may be served upon the Pledgor as a result of the Pledgor’s obligations under this Agreement. 

B. The Pledgor irrevocably (i) agrees that any suit, action or other legal proceeding arising out of this Agreement may be brought in the courts
of record of the State of Connecticut or the courts of the United States located in such state; (ii) consents to the jurisdiction of each such court in any such suit, action or proceeding; and (iii) waives any objection which the Pledgor
may have to the laying of venue of any such suit, action or proceeding in any of such courts. For such time as any of the liabilities is outstanding, the Pledgor’s agent designated in Section 19(a) hereof shall accept and acknowledge on
the Pledgor’s behalf services of any and all 








 
process in any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court. The Pledgor agrees and consents that any such services of process upon such agent
and written notice of such service to the Pledgor by registered mail shall be taken and held to be valid personal service upon the Pledgor and that any such service of process shall be of the same force and validity as if services were made upon the
Pledgor according to the laws governing the validity and requirements of such service in such state, and waives all claim of error by reason of any such service. 
 XX. Prejudgment Remedies. THE PLEDGOR AGREES THAT THIS IS A COMMERCIAL TRANSACTION AND NOT A CONSUMER TRANSACTION, AND WAIVES WITH RESPECT TO ALL RIGHTS OF CREDITORS TO PROPERTY UNDER CONNECTICUT LAW, ANY RIGHT
TO A NOTICE AND HEARING UNDER CHAPTER 903a OF THE CONNECTICUT GENERAL STATUTES, AS AMENDED, OR OTHER STATUTE OR STATUTES AFFECTING PREJUDGMENT REMEDIES AND AUTHORIZES LENDER’S ATTORNEY TO ISSUE A WRIT FOR A PREJUDGMENT REMEDY WITHOUT COURT
ORDER, PROVIDED THE COMPLAINT SHALL SET FORTH A COPY OF THIS WAIVER, AND WAIVES ANY CLAIM IN TORT, CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE AGAINST LENDER’S ATTORNEY WHICH MAY ARISE OUT OF SUCH ISSUANCE OF THE WRIT FOR A PREJUDGMENT REMEDY WITHOUT COURT ORDER.

 XXI. Waiver of Jury Trial. PLEDGOR HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHTS IT MAY HAVE TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM, DEMAND,
ACTION, OR CAUSE OF ACTION (1) ARISING UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER INSTRUMENT, DOCUMENT, OR AGREEMENT EXECUTED OR DELIVERED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH, OR (2) IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH OR RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THE DEALINGS OF THE
PARTIES HERETO OR ANY OF THEM WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER INSTRUMENT, DOCUMENT, OR AGREEMENT EXECUTED OR DELIVERED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH, OR THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED HERETO OR THERETO, IN EACH CASE WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER
ARISING, AND WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT OR TORT OR OTHERWISE; AND PLEDGOR HEREBY AGREES AND CONSENTS THAT ANY SUCH CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION, OR CAUSE OF ACTION SHALL BE DECIDED BY COURT TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY, AND THE LENDER MAY FILE AN ORIGINAL
COUNTERPART OR A COPY OF THIS SECTION WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF DEBTOR’S CONSENT TO THE WAIVER OF ITS RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY. EXCEPT AS PROHIBITED BY LAW, THE PLEDGOR WAIVES ANY RIGHT WHICH IT MAY HAVE TO CLAIM OR RECOVER IN ANY
LITIGATION REFERRED TO IN THE PRECEDING SENTENCE ANY SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OR ANY DAMAGES OTHER THAN, OR IN ADDITION TO, ACTUAL DAMAGES. The Pledgor (a) certifies that neither the Lender nor any representative,
agent or attorney of the Lender has represented, expressly or otherwise, that the Lender would not, in the event of litigation, seek to enforce the foregoing waivers, and (b) acknowledges that, in entering into the LSA and the other Financing
Agreements to which the Lender is a party, the Lender is relying upon, among other things, the waivers and certifications contained in this Section 21. 







 XXII. Further Assurances. The Pledgor agrees that it will cooperate with the Lender and, at its
own expense, shall do, make, execute and deliver all such additional and further acts, things, deeds, assurances, assignments, documents, agreements and instruments as the Lender may require more completely to vest in and assure to the Lender its
rights hereunder or in any of the Pledged Collateral. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Pledgor shall execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, all such other stock powers, proxies, instruments, documents and
resignations of officers and directors, as the Lender may request from time to time in order to carry out the provisions and purposes hereof. 
 XXIII. Notices. Any notice or other communication required or desired to be served, given or delivered hereunder shall be in writing, and shall be deemed to have been validly served, given or delivered upon deposit in the United
States mails, as registered or certified mail, with proper postage prepaid and addressed to the party to be notified as provided in the Loan Agreement, or to such other address as either party may hereafter designate for itself by written notice to
the other party in the manner herein prescribed.
