 3. Interest Rate Amendment: Section 1.5 of the Loan Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to
read as follows: 
 “1.5 Interest. (a) Borrower shall pay interest to Lender as follows: (i) on the
aggregate outstanding Revolving Credit Advances (except as provided for in clause (ii) below), at a rate per annum equal to the sum of (A) the Quarter LIBOR Rate, (B) the Applicable Margin, each as in effect on each day of the
applicable calendar quarter and (C) until the Covenant Compliance 







 
Date, 2% (the “Revolving Credit Rate”) and (ii) on any portion of the aggregate outstanding Revolving Credit Advances in excess of $2,115,342.00 (the “Excess
Amount”), at a rate per annum equal to 10% (the “Excess Amount Rate”) until (x) the first day (the “Rate Reduction Day”) on which the aggregate outstanding Revolving Credit Advances hereunder do not
exceed $2,115,342.00 and (y) all Subordinated Indebtedness has (together with the interest thereon) been paid in full in a manner permitted by the Subordination Agreement. After the Rate Reduction Day, all Revolving Credit Advances, including
any Excess Amount, if any, shall bear interest as provided for in clause (i) above. 
 All computations of interest shall be
made by Lender on the basis of a three hundred and sixty (360) day year, in each case for the actual number of days occurring in the period for which such interest is payable. Each determination by Lender of an interest rate hereunder shall be
conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. In no event will Lender charge interest at a rate that exceeds the highest rate of interest permissible under any law that a court of competent jurisdiction shall, in a final
determination, deem applicable. 
 (b) Except as otherwise provided in clause 1.5(a)(ii) above, if for any
reason, the LIBOR rate is not available, the parties hereto agree to use their best efforts to determine an interest rate to be charged hereunder which is comparable to the interest rate charged hereunder prior to such LIBOR rate becoming
unavailable. 
 (c) Interest shall be payable on the outstanding Revolving Credit Advances (including the Excess
Amount, if applicable) (i) in arrears for the preceding calendar quarter on the last day of each calendar quarter, (ii) on the Commitment Termination Date, and (iii) if any interest accrues or remains payable after the Commitment
Termination Date, upon demand by Lender. 
 (d) Effective upon the occurrence of any Event of Default and for so
long as any Event of Default shall be continuing, the Revolving Credit Rate and the Excess Amount Rate, as applicable, shall automatically be increased by two percentage points (2%) per annum (such increased rate, the “Default
Rate”), and all outstanding Obligations shall continue to accrue interest from the date of such Event of Default at the Default Rate applicable to such Obligations; provided, that prior to the Covenant Compliance Date the Revolving
Credit Rate shall not be increased to the Default Rate. 
 (e) If any interest or any other payment to Lender
under this Agreement becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, such payment date shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and interest thereon shall be payable at the then applicable rate during such extension.

applicable, that such Guaranteed Indebtedness is subordinated in right of payment to the Obligations hereunder in the same manner as such primary obligation is so subordinated), (vi) additional Indebtedness (including Purchase Money
Indebtedness) incurred after the Closing Date in an aggregate
