 CREDIT TERMS 
 SECTION 1.1. LINE OF CREDIT. 

(a) Line of Credit. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Bank hereby agrees to make advances to Borrower from
time to time up to and including May 3, 2014, not to exceed at any time the aggregate principal amount of Twenty Five Million Dollars ($25,000,000.00) (“Line of Credit”), the proceeds of which shall be used to finance Borrower’s
working capital requirements. Borrower’s obligation to repay advances under the Line of Credit shall be evidenced by a promissory note substantially in the form of Exhibit A attached hereto (“Line of Credit Note”), all terms of
which are incorporated herein by this reference. 
 (b) Letter of Credit Subfeature. As a subfeature under the Line of
Credit, Bank agrees from time to time during the term thereof to issue or cause an affiliate to issue commercial and standby letters of credit for the account of Borrower (each, a “Letter of Credit” and collectively, “Letters of
Credit”); provided however, that the aggregate undrawn amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit shall not at any time exceed Fifteen Million Dollars ($15,000,000.00). The form and substance of each Letter of Credit shall be subject to
approval by Bank, in its sole discretion. Each Letter of Credit shall be issued for a term not to exceed three hundred sixty-five (365) days, as designated by Borrower; provided however, that no Letter of Credit shall have an expiration date
more than one hundred twenty (120) days beyond the maturity date of the Line of Credit. The undrawn amount of all Letters of Credit shall be reserved under the Line of Credit and shall not be available for borrowings thereunder. Each Letter of
Credit shall be subject to the additional terms and conditions of the Letter of Credit agreements, applications and any related documents required by Bank in connection with the issuance thereof. Each drawing paid under a Letter of Credit shall be
deemed an advance under the Line of Credit and shall be repaid by Borrower in accordance with the terms and conditions 







 
of this Agreement applicable to such advances; provided however, that if advances under the Line of Credit are not available, for any reason, at the time any drawing is paid, then Borrower shall
immediately pay to Bank the full amount drawn, together with interest thereon from the date such drawing is paid to the date such amount is fully repaid by Borrower, at the rate of interest applicable to advances under the Line of Credit. In such
event Borrower agrees that Bank, in its sole discretion, may debit any account maintained by Borrower with Bank for the amount of any such drawing. 
 (c) Limitation on Borrowings. During any Formula Period, outstanding borrowings under the Line of Credit shall not at any time exceed seventy five percent (75%) of Borrower’s eligible
inventory (exclusive of work in process and inventory which is obsolete, unsalable or damaged), with the value determined on a cost basis. The foregoing shall be determined by Bank upon receipt and review of the collateral report required pursuant
to Section 4.3(b) hereof and such other documents and collateral information as Bank may from time to time require. As used herein, “Formula Period” shall mean a period commencing from the first day of the calendar month immediately
following a calendar month in which the average daily usage under the Line of Credit exceeds Fifteen Million Dollars ($15,000,000.00) and continuing up to and including the last day of a calendar quarter during which, in any month of such quarter,
the average daily usage under the Line of Credit is equal to or less than Fifteen Million Dollars ($15,000,000.00). 
 (d)
Borrowing and Repayment. Borrower may from time to time during the term of the Line of Credit borrow, partially or wholly repay its outstanding borrowings, and reborrow, subject to all of the limitations, terms and conditions contained herein

SECTION 1.2. INTEREST/FEES. 
 (a) Interest. The outstanding principal balance of each credit subject hereto shall bear interest, and the amount of each drawing paid under any Letter of Credit shall bear interest from the date
such drawing is paid to the date such amount is fully repaid by Borrower, at the rate of interest set forth in each promissory note or other instrument or document executed in connection therewith. 

(b) Computation and Payment. Interest shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year, actual days elapsed. Interest shall be
payable at the times and place set forth in each promissory note or other instrument or document required hereby.

Unused Commitment Fee. Borrower shall pay to Bank a fee equal to ten-hundredths percent (0.10%) per annum (computed on the basis of a 360-day year, actual days elapsed) on the average daily unused amount of the Line of Credit, which fee shall
be calculated on a calendar quarter basis by Bank and shall be due and payable by Borrower in arrears on the last day of each September, December, March and June.

benefit of the heirs, executors, administrators, legal representatives, successors and assigns of the parties; provided however, that Borrower may not assign or transfer its interest hereunder without Bank’s prior written consent. Bank reserves
the right to sell, assign, transfer, negotiate or grant participations in all or any part of, or any interest in, Bank’s rights and benefits under each of the Loan Documents. In connection therewith, Bank may disclose all documents and
information which Bank now has or may hereafter acquire relating to any credit subject hereto, Borrower or its business, or any collateral required hereunder.

prior negotiations, communications, discussions and correspondence concerning the subject matter hereof. This Agreement may be amended or modified only in writing signed by each party hereto. 

SECTION 7.6. NO THIRD PARTY BENEFICIARIES, This Agreement is made and entered into for the sole protection and benefit of the parties
hereto and their respective permitted successors and assigns, and no other person or entity shall be a third party beneficiary of, or have any direct or indirect cause of action or claim in connection with, this Agreement or any other of the Loan
Documents to which it is not a party. 
 SECTION 7.7. TIME. Time is of the essence of each and every provision of this Agreement
and each other of the Loan Documents. 
 SECTION 7.8. SEVERABILITY OF PROVISIONS. If any provision of this Agreement shall be
prohibited by 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 any remaining provisions of this Agreement. 

SECTION 7.9. COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when executed and delivered shall
be deemed to be an original, and all of which when taken together shall constitute one and the same Agreement. 
 SECTION 7.10.
GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California. 

SECTION 7.11. ARBITRATION. 
 (a) Arbitration. The parties hereto agree, upon demand by any party, to submit to binding arbitration all claims, disputes and controversies between or among them (and their respective employees,
officers, directors, attorneys, and other agents), whether in tort, contract or otherwise arising out of or relating to in any way (i) the loan and related Loan Documents which are the subject of this Agreement and its negotiation, execution,
collateralization, administration, repayment, modification, extension, substitution, formation, inducement, enforcement, default or termination; or (ii) requests for additional credit. 

  
 - 15 -









 (b) Governing Rules. Any arbitration proceeding will (i) proceed in a location
in California selected by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”); (ii) be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (Title 9 of the United States Code), notwithstanding any conflicting choice of law provision in any of the
documents between the parties; and (iii) be conducted by the AAA, or such other administrator as the parties shall mutually agree upon, in accordance with the AAA’s commercial dispute resolution procedures, unless the claim or counterclaim
is at least $1,000,000.00 exclusive of claimed interest, arbitration fees and costs in which case the arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the AAA’s optional procedures for large, complex commercial disputes (the commercial dispute
resolution procedures or the optional procedures for large, complex commercial disputes to be referred to, as applicable, as the “Rules”). If there is any inconsistency between the terms hereof and the Rules, the terms and procedures set
forth herein shall control. Any party who fails or refuses to submit to arbitration following a demand by any other party shall bear all costs and expenses incurred by such other party in compelling arbitration of any dispute. Nothing contained
herein shall be deemed to be a waiver by any party that is a bank of the protections afforded to it under 12 U.S.C. §91 or any similar applicable state law. 
 (c) No Waiver of Provisional Remedies, Self-Help and Foreclosure. The arbitration requirement does not limit the right of any party to (i) foreclose against real or personal property
collateral; (ii) exercise self-help remedies relating to collateral or proceeds of collateral such as setoff or repossession; or (iii) obtain provisional or ancillary remedies such as replevin, injunctive relief, attachment or the
appointment of a receiver, before during or after the pendency of any arbitration proceeding. This exclusion does not constitute a waiver of the right or obligation of any party to submit any dispute to arbitration or reference hereunder, including
those arising from the exercise of the actions detailed in sections (i), (ii) and (iii) of this paragraph. 
 (d)
Arbitrator Qualifications and Powers. Any arbitration proceeding in which the amount in controversy is $5,000,000.00 or less will be decided by a single arbitrator selected according to the Rules, and who shall not render an award of greater
than $5,000,000.00. Any dispute in which the amount in controversy exceeds $5,000,000.00 shall be decided by majority vote of a panel of three arbitrators; provided however, that all three arbitrators must actively participate in all hearings and
deliberations. The arbitrator will be a neutral attorney licensed in the State of California or a neutral retired judge of the state or federal judiciary of California, in either case with a minimum of ten years experience in the substantive law
applicable to the subject matter of the dispute to be arbitrated. The arbitrator will determine whether or not an issue is arbitratable and will give effect to the statutes of limitation in determining any claim. In any arbitration proceeding the
arbitrator will decide (by documents only or with a hearing at the arbitrator’s discretion) any pre-hearing motions which are similar to motions to dismiss for failure to state a claim or motions for summary adjudication. The arbitrator shall
resolve all disputes in accordance with the substantive law of California and may grant any remedy or relief that a court of such state could order or grant within the scope hereof and such ancillary relief as is necessary to make effective any
award. The arbitrator shall also have the power to award recovery of all costs and fees, to impose sanctions and to take such other action as the arbitrator deems necessary to the same extent a judge could pursuant to the Federal Rules of Civil
Procedure, the California Rules of Civil Procedure or other applicable law. Judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. The institution 


  
 - 16 -









 
and maintenance of an action for judicial relief or pursuit of a provisional or ancillary remedy shall not constitute a waiver of the right of any party, including the plaintiff, to submit the
controversy or claim to arbitration if any other party contests such action for judicial relief. 
 (e) Discovery. In any
arbitration proceeding discovery will be permitted in accordance with the Rules. All discovery shall be expressly limited to matters directly relevant to the dispute being arbitrated and must be completed no later than 20 days before the hearing
date and within 180 days of the filing of the dispute with the AAA. Any requests for an extension of the discovery periods, or any discovery disputes, will be subject to final determination by the arbitrator upon a showing that the request for
discovery is essential for the party’s presentation and that no alternative means for obtaining information is available. 

(f) Class Proceedings and Consolidations. The resolution of any dispute arising pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall be
determined by a separate arbitration proceeding and such dispute shall not be consolidated with other disputes or included in any class proceeding. 
 (g) Payment Of Arbitration Costs And Fees. The arbitrator shall award all costs and expenses of the arbitration proceeding. 
 (h) Real Property Collateral; Judicial Reference. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no dispute shall be submitted to arbitration if the dispute concerns indebtedness secured directly
or indirectly, in whole or in part, by any real property unless (i) the holder of the mortgage, lien or security interest specifically elects in writing to proceed with the arbitration, or (ii) all parties to the arbitration waive any
rights or benefits that might accrue to them by virtue of the single action rule statute of California, thereby agreeing that all indebtedness and obligations of the parties, and all mortgages, liens and security interests securing such indebtedness
and obligations, shall remain fully valid and enforceable. If any such dispute is not submitted to arbitration, the dispute shall be referred to a referee in accordance with California Code of Civil Procedure Section 638 et seq., and this
general reference agreement is intended to be specifically enforceable in accordance with said Section 638. A referee with the qualifications required herein for arbitrators shall be selected pursuant to the AAA’s selection procedures.
Judgment upon the decision rendered by a referee shall be entered in the court in which such proceeding was commenced in accordance with California Code of Civil Procedure Sections 644 and 645. 

(i) Miscellaneous. To the maximum extent practicable, the AAA, the arbitrators and the parties shall take all action required to
conclude any arbitration proceeding within 180 days of the filing of the dispute with the AAA. No arbitrator or other party to an arbitration proceeding may disclose the existence, content or results thereof, except for disclosures of information by
a party required in the ordinary course of its business or by applicable law or regulation. If more than one agreement for arbitration by or between the parties potentially applies to a dispute, the arbitration provision most directly related to the
Loan Documents or the subject matter of the dispute shall control. This arbitration provision shall survive termination, amendment or expiration of any of the Loan Documents or any relationship between the parties. 

  
 - 17 -









 (j) Small Claims Court. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each party
retains the right to pursue in Small Claims Court any dispute within that court’s jurisdiction. Further, this arbitration provision shall apply only to disputes in which either party seeks to recover an amount of money (excluding
attorneys’ fees and costs) that exceeds the jurisdictional limit of the Small Claims Court. 
 SECTION 7.12. NO NOVATION OR
IMPAIRMENT OF SECURITY INTERESTS. This Agreement shall not cause a novation, payment and reborrowing, or termination of any of the indebtedness or obligations of Borrower under the Existing Credit Agreement or other loan documents executed in
connection therewith (collectively, the “Existing Loan Documents”), nor shall it extinguish, discharge, terminate or impair Borrower’s indebtedness or obligations or Bank’s rights or remedies under the Existing Credit Agreement
and the other Existing Loan Documents; provided, however, that all such indebtedness, obligations, rights and remedies shall be on the terms and conditions of, and as set forth in, this Agreement and the Loan Documents. 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 Borrower arising under the Existing Credit Agreement or the other Existing Loan Documents.
