approved by Bank (provided that if the Borrowers financial statements are received, reviewed and approved by Bank within five Business Days after the start of a month, the interest rate
shall be adjusted as of the first day of such month). If, based on the EBITDA as shown in Borrowers financial statements there is to be an increase in the interest rate, the interest rate increase may be put into effect by Bank as of the first
day of the month closest to the date on which the financial statements are due, even if the delivery of the financial statements is delayed.

June 30, 2011 is $100 and Borrowers financial statements as of June 30, 2011 are received, reviewed and approved by Bank on July 31, 2011, then the interest rate in effect on August 1, 2011 will be a rate equal to the Prime
Rate plus 0.50%.

(B) if Borrowers EBITDA for the fiscal quarter ending June 30, 2011 is $100 and Borrowers
financial statements as of June 30, 2011 are received, reviewed and approved by Bank on August 5, 2011, then the interest rate shall still be adjusted to a rate equal to the Prime Rate plus 0.50% effective on August 1, 2011.
