ARTICLE II 
 AMOUNT AND
TERMS OF THE LOANS 
 Section 2.1 Loan Commitment. 

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Lender agrees to make revolving loans (each a “Loan” and,
collectively, the “Loans”) to the Borrower during the Availability Period in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding not to exceed the Loan Commitment. The Loans shall be used for the purposes set forth in
Section 4.5. 
 (b) During the Availability Period, the Borrower shall be entitled to borrow, prepay or repay, and reborrow the
Loans in accordance with the provisions hereof. 
 Section 2.2 Borrowing Procedure. The Borrower shall give the Lender five
(5) Business Days’ prior written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) of each borrowing to be made by the Borrower substantially in the form of Exhibit B (a “Notice of Borrowing”); provided that the Notice
of Borrowing with respect to the initial borrowing on the date hereof may be delivered on the date hereof. 
 Section 2.3
Optional Reduction and Termination of Loan Commitment. Upon three (3) Business Days’ written notice to the Lender signed by the Borrower, the Borrower may terminate the Loan Commitment, or permanently reduce the Loan Commitment to an
amount not less than the then Outstanding Amount of all Loans, provided that each partial reduction of the Loan Commitment shall be in integral multiples of $1,000,000 (or such lesser amount as agreed by the Lender). 

Section 2.4 Repayment of Loans. On the Maturity Date, the Borrower shall repay in full all Obligations. 

  
 6 







 Section 2.5 Prepayment. At any time, the Borrower may voluntarily prepay in whole or
in part the Loans (together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon) without premium or penalty. 
 Section 2.6 Interest on
Loans. 
 (a) The Loans shall accrue interest at the Loan Interest Rate. 

(b) The Borrower shall pay interest due and payable on the Loans in arrears on each Quarterly Payment Date for the Payment Period most recently
ended; provided that the Borrower may pay all or a portion of such interest by adding such amount to the principal amount hereunder (a “PIK Payment”), with the remaining interest (if any) to be paid fully in cash (a
“Cash Payment”). A PIK Payment shall be deemed to be made with respect to the portion (if any) of the interest due and payable hereunder for which a Cash Payment is not received by the Lender on the applicable Quarterly Payment
Date. For all purposes hereof, references to “principal amount” of the Loans includes any increase in the principal amount as a result of a PIK Payment. 

(c) While an Event of Default exists or after acceleration of the Loans in accordance with Article VII, at the option of the Lender,
interest on the unpaid principal amount of the Loans (and any unpaid interest with respect thereto) will accrue at the Default Interest Rate (the “Default Interest”). All Default Interest will be payable by the Borrower upon demand
by the Lender. 
 Section 2.7 Computation of Interest; Underpayment. All computations of interest shall be made by the Lender on
the basis of a year of 360 days. Each determination by the Lender of an interest amount hereunder shall, except for manifest error, be final, conclusive and binding for all purposes. To the extent the Lender determines that the Borrower has
paid less than the required interest payment (whether a PIK Payment or a Cash Payment) on a Quarterly Payment Date on account of any redetermination of the Applicable Margin resulting from a difference between the audited financial statements
delivered pursuant to Section 6.1(a) and the unaudited financial statements delivered pursuant to Section 6.1(b) for the fourth (4th) fiscal quarter of any year, the Lender may
request that the Borrower pay over such shortfall (as a PIK Payment or a Cash Payment, in accordance with Section 2.6(b)) at the next Quarterly Payment Date or, if earlier occurring, the Maturity Date. 

Section 2.8 Evidence of Debt. The Loans made by the Lender shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or records maintained by the
Lender. The accounts or records maintained by the Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error of the amount of the Loans made by the Lender to the Borrower and the interest and payments thereon. Any failure so to record or any error in doing so
shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the Borrower hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to the Loans. 

  
 7 







 Section 2.9 Payments Generally. (a) All payments by the Borrower to the Lender
hereunder shall be made to the Lender at the Payment Office in immediately available funds without setoff or counterclaim. If any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the
next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of the payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be made payable for the period of such extension. All payments hereunder shall be made in Dollars. 

(b) If on the Maturity Date insufficient funds are received by and available to the Lender to pay fully all amounts of principal and interest
due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, towards payment of interest, and (ii) second, towards payment of principal due hereunder. 

Section 2.10 Taxes. (a) Any and all payments by the Borrower under each Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and
without deduction for any and all present or future Taxes. If any Taxes shall be required by law to be deducted from or in respect of any sum payable under any Loan Document to the Lender, then the Borrower shall be entitled to make such deduction
or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and the sum payable by the Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or
withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings of Taxes applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been
made. 
 (b) The Borrower and the Lender agree that the Loans shall be (and they expect the Loans to be) treated as debt for tax purposes,
and neither the Borrower nor the Lender shall take a position contrary to this position on any tax return or through any other action, unless required by a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction (as reasonably determined by the Borrower
and the Lender in good faith). 
 Section 2.11 Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if the Lender
determines that it is unlawful for the Lender to make Loans or to continue to fund or maintain Loans, then, on notice thereof and demand therefor by the Lender to the Borrower, (i) the obligation of the Lender to make or to continue Loans shall
be suspended, and (ii) if Loans are then outstanding, the Borrower shall prepay such Loans within five (5) Business Days after notice thereof and demand therefor by the Lender; provided that prior to delivering any such notice or making
any such demand the Lender shall use commercially reasonable efforts to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to an Affiliate of the Lender if such assignment would eliminate the need for such notice or demand. 

ARTICLE III 
 CONDITIONS
PRECEDENT TO LOANS

delivery of this Agreement by the Borrower and the Lender.
