8. PAYMENT OF PREMIUMS, TAXES, CHARGES, LIENS AND ASSESSMENTS. Debtor agrees to pay, prior to delinquency, all insurance premiums, taxes, charges,
liens and assessments against the Collateral and Proceeds, and upon the failure of Debtor to do so, Bank at its option may pay any of them and shall be the sole judge of the legality or validity thereof and the amount necessary to discharge the
same. Any such payments made by Bank shall be obligations of Debtor to Bank, due and payable immediately upon demand, together with interest at a rate determined in accordance with the provisions of the Agreement, and shall be secured by the
Collateral and Proceeds, subject to all terms and conditions of this Agreement. 
 9. EVENTS OF DEFAULT. The occurrence of any of the
following shall constitute an 

  
 - 4 -









 
“Event of Default” under this Agreement: (a) any default in the payment or performance of any obligation, or any defined event of default, under (i) any contract or instrument
evidencing any Indebtedness to Bank, (ii) any other agreement between Debtor and Bank, including without limitation any loan agreement, relating to or executed in connection with any Indebtedness, or (iii) any contract or instrument
evidencing any Indebtedness to any other person or entity in an individual principal amount of $500,000 or more or with an aggregate principal amount of $1,000,000 or more; (b) any representation or warranty made by Debtor herein shall prove to
be incorrect, false or misleading in any material respect when made; (c) Debtor shall fail to observe or perform any obligation or agreement contained herein; (d) any impairment of the rights of Bank in any Collateral or Proceeds, or any
attachment or like levy on any property of Debtor; and (e) Bank, in good faith, believes any or all of the Collateral and/or Proceeds to be in danger of misuse, dissipation, commingling, loss, theft, damage or destruction, or otherwise in
jeopardy or unsatisfactory in character or value. 
 10. REMEDIES. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, Bank shall have the right
to declare immediately due and payable all or any Indebtedness secured hereby and to terminate any commitments to make loans or otherwise extend credit to Debtor. Bank shall have all other rights, powers, privileges and remedies granted to a secured
party upon default under the California Uniform Commercial Code or otherwise provided by law, including without limitation, the right (a) to contact all persons obligated to Debtor on any Collateral or Proceeds and to instruct such persons to
deliver all Collateral and/or Proceeds directly to Bank, and (b) to sell, lease, license, or otherwise dispose of any or all Collateral. All rights, powers, privileges and remedies of Bank shall be cumulative. No delay, failure or
discontinuance of Bank in exercising any right, power, privilege or remedy hereunder shall affect or operate as a waiver of such right, power, privilege or remedy; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power, privilege or
preclude, waive or otherwise affect any other or future exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power, privilege or remedy. Any waiver, permit, consent, or approval of any kind by Bank of any default hereunder, or any such waiver of any
provisions or conditions hereof, must be in writing and shall be effective only to the extent set forth in writing. It is agreed that public or private sales or other dispositions, for cash or on credit, to a wholesaler or retailer or investor, or
user of property of the types subject to this Agreement, or public auctions, are all commercially reasonable since differences in the prices generally realized in different kinds of dispositions are ordinarily offset by the differences in the costs
and credit risks of such dispositions. While an Event of Default exists: (a) Debtor will deliver to Bank from time to time, as requested by Bank, current lists of all Collateral and Proceeds; (b) Debtor will not dispose of any Collateral
or Proceeds except on terms approved by Bank; (c) at Bank’s request, Debtor will assemble and deliver all Collateral and Proceeds, and books and records pertaining thereto, to Bank at a reasonably convenient place designated by Bank; and
(d) Bank may, without notice to Debtor, enter onto Debtor’s premises and take possession of the Collateral. With respect to any sale by Bank of any Collateral subject to this Agreement, Debtor hereby expressly grants to Bank the right to
sell such Collateral using any or all of Debtor’s trademarks, trade names, trade name rights and/or proprietary labels or marks. Debtor further agrees that Bank shall have no obligation to process or prepare any Collateral for sale or other
disposition. 
 11. DISPOSITION OF COLLATERAL AND PROCEEDS; TRANSFER OF INDEBTEDNESS. In disposing of Collateral hereunder, Bank may
disclaim all warranties of 

  
 - 5 -









 
title, possession, quiet enjoyment and the like. Any proceeds of any disposition of any Collateral or Proceeds, or any part thereof, may be applied by Bank to the payment of expenses incurred by
Bank in connection with the foregoing, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, and the balance of such proceeds may be applied by Bank toward the payment of the Indebtedness in such order of application as Bank may from time to time elect. Upon
the transfer of all or any part of the Indebtedness, Bank may transfer all or any part of the Collateral or Proceeds and shall be fully discharged thereafter from all liability and responsibility with respect to any of the foregoing so transferred,
and the transferee shall be vested with all rights and powers of Bank hereunder with respect to any of the foregoing so transferred; but with respect to any Collateral or Proceeds not so transferred Bank shall retain all rights, powers, privileges
and remedies herein given. 
 12. STATUTE OF LIMITATIONS. Until all Indebtedness shall have been paid in full and all commitments by Bank
to extend credit to Debtor have been terminated, the power of sale or other rights, powers, privileges and remedies granted to Bank hereunder shall continue to exist and may be exercised by Bank at any time and from time to time irrespective of the
fact that the Indebtedness or any part thereof may have become barred by any statute of limitations, or that the personal liability of Debtor may have ceased, unless such liability shall have ceased due to the payment in full of all Indebtedness
secured hereunder. 
 13. MISCELLANEOUS. When there is more than one Debtor named herein: (a) the word “Debtor” shall mean
all or any one or more of them as the context requires; (b) the obligations of each Debtor hereunder are joint and several; and (c) until all Indebtedness shall have been paid in full, no Debtor shall have any right of subrogation or
contribution, and each Debtor hereby waives any benefit of or right to participate in any of the Collateral or Proceeds or any other security now or hereafter held by Bank. Debtor hereby waives any right to require Bank to (i) proceed against
Debtor or any other person, (ii) marshal assets or proceed against or exhaust any security from Debtor or any other person, (iii) perform any obligation of Debtor with respect to any Collateral or Proceeds, and (d) make any
presentment or demand, or give any notice of nonpayment of nonperformance, protest, notice of protest or notice of dishonor hereunder or in connection with any Collateral or Proceeds. Debtor further waives any right to direct the application of
payments or security for any Indebtedness of Debtor or Indebtedness of customers of Debtor. 
 14. NOTICES. All notices, requests and
demands required under this Agreement must be in writing, addressed to Bank at the address specified in any other loan documents entered into between Debtor and Bank and to Debtor at the address of its chief executive office (or principal residence,
if applicable) specified below or to such other address as any party may designate by written notice to each other party, and shall be deemed to have been given or made as follows: (a) if personally delivered, upon delivery; (b) it sent by
mail, upon the earlier of the date of receipt or 3 days after deposit in the U.S. mail, first class and postage prepaid; and (c) if sent by telecopy, upon receipt. 
 15. COSTS, EXPENSES AND ATTORNEYS’ FEES. Debtor shall pay to Bank immediately upon demand the full amount of all payments, advances, charges, costs and expenses, including reasonable
attorneys’ fees (to include outside counsel fees and all allocated costs of Bank’s in-house counsel), expended or incurred by Bank in connection with (a) the perfection and preservation of the Collateral or Bank’s interest
therein, and (b) the realization,

enforcement and exercise of any right, power, privilege or remedy conferred by this Agreement, whether incurred at the trial or appellate level, in an arbitration proceeding or otherwise, and
including any of the foregoing incurred in connection with any bankruptcy proceeding (including without limitation, any adversary proceeding, contested matter or motion brought by Bank or any other person) relating to Debtor or in any way affecting
any of the Collateral or Bank’s ability to exercise any of its rights or remedies with respect thereto. If not paid when due, all of the foregoing shall be paid by Debtor with interest from the date of demand until paid in full at a rate per
annum equal to the greater of ten percent (10%) or Bank’s Prime Rate in effect from time to time. 
 16. SUCCESSORS; ASSIGNS;
AMENDMENT. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors, administrators, legal representatives, successors and assigns of the parties, and may be amended or modified only in writing signed by Bank and
Debtor. 
 17. RESERVED. 
 18.
SEVERABILITY OF PROVISIONS. If any provision of this Agreement shall be held to be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibitions or invalidity, without invalidating
the remainder of such provision or any remaining provisions of this Agreement. 
 19. GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement shall be governed by
and constructed in accordance with the laws of the State of California. 
 20. ADDITIONAL REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES.

 (c) Debtor warrants that the Collateral (except goods in transit) is located or domiciled
at the following additional address: “See Exhibit A attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference”. 
 21. NO NOVATION
OR IMPAIRMENT OF SECURITY INTERESTS. This Agreement shall not cause a novation or termination of any of the obligations of Debtor under the Existing Security Agreement or the other loan documents executed in connection with the Existing Security
Agreement, nor shall it extinguish, discharge, terminate or impair Debtor’s obligations or Bank’s rights or remedies under any Existing Security Agreement and such other loan documents; provided that all such obligations, rights and
remedies shall be on the terms and conditions of, and as set forth in, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents related hereto. In addition, this Agreement shall not release, limit or impair in any way the priority of any security interests and
liens held by Bank against any assets of Debtor arising under the Existing Security Agreements or such other loan documents.
