                                            OF PAYMENT.



 


2.1          Credit Extensions.


 


The Borrowers jointly and
severally promise to pay to the order of Bank, in lawful money of the United States of America, the aggregate unpaid principal amount
of all Credit Extensions made by Bank to a Borrower hereunder. The Borrowers shall also pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of
such Credit Extensions at rates in accordance with the terms hereof.


 


(a)            Revolving
Advances.


 


(i)    Subject
to and upon the terms and conditions of this Agreement, a Borrower may request Advances in an aggregate outstanding amount not to exceed
the lesser of (i) the Revolving Line and (ii) the Borrowing Base. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Advances
may be repaid and reborrowed at any time prior to the Revolving Maturity Date, at which time all Advances shall be immediately due and
payable. The Borrowers may prepay any Advances without penalty or premium.


 


(ii)    Whenever
the Borrowers desire an Advance, a Borrower will notify Bank by email or telephone no later than 11:00 a.m. Pacific Time, on the
Business Day that is one day before the Business Day the Advance is to be made (and three (3) Business Days before the initial Advance).
Each such notification shall be promptly confirmed by a Loan Paydown/Advance Request Form in substantially the form of Exhibit B.
Bank is authorized to make Advances under this Agreement, based upon instructions received from a Responsible Officer or a designee of
a Responsible Officer, or without instructions if in Bank’s reasonable discretion such Advances are necessary to meet Obligations
which have become due and remain unpaid. Bank may rely on any email or telephonic notice given by a person Bank reasonably believes to
be a Responsible Officer or a designee thereof, and the Borrowers shall indemnify and hold Bank harmless for any damages or loss suffered
by Bank as a result of such reliance. Bank will credit the amount of Advances made under this Section to a Borrower’s deposit
account at Bank, as directed by such Borrower.


 


2.2          Overadvances. If the aggregate amount of the outstanding Advances exceeds the lesser of the Revolving Line and the Borrowing
Base at any time, the Borrowers shall immediately pay to Bank, in cash, the amount of such excess.


 


2.3          Interest
Rates, Payments, and Calculations.


 


(a)            Interest
Rate. Except as set forth in Section 2.3(b), the Advances shall bear interest, on the outstanding Daily Balance thereof,
at a floating rate equal to one percent (1.0%) above the Prime Rate.


 






    10.


     


    

 


(b)            Late
Fee; Default Rate. If any payment is not made within ten (10) days after the date such payment is due, the Borrowers shall
pay Bank a late fee equal to the lesser of (i) five percent (5%) of the amount of such unpaid amount or (ii) the maximum
amount permitted to be charged under applicable law. All Obligations shall bear interest, from and after the occurrence and during
the continuance of an Event of Default, at a rate equal to five (5) percentage points above the interest rate applicable
immediately prior to the occurrence of the Event of Default.


 


(c)            Payments.
Interest hereunder shall be due and payable on the last business day of each month during the term hereof, commencing on March 31,
2021. Bank shall, at its option, charge such interest, all Bank Expenses, and all Periodic Payments against any of a Borrower’s
deposit accounts or against the Revolving Facility, in which case those amounts shall thereafter accrue interest at the rate then applicable
hereunder. Any interest not paid when due shall be compounded by becoming a part of the Obligations, and such interest shall thereafter
accrue interest at the rate then applicable hereunder. All payments shall be free and clear of any taxes, withholdings, duties, impositions
or other charges, to the end that Bank will receive the entire amount of any Obligations payable hereunder, regardless of source of payment.


 


(d)            Lockbox;
Collections. The Borrowers shall cause all account debtors to pay any amounts owing to a Borrower made by wire, ACH, electronic
funds transfer or other electronic payment method to such restricted account as Bank shall specify (the “Bancontrol Account”),
and to mail all payments made by check to a post office box under Bank’s control. All invoices shall specify such post office box
address and Bancontrol Account information as the remit to and payment address for all Accounts. Bank shall have sole authority to collect
such payments and deposit them to the Bancontrol Account. If a Borrower receives any amount despite such instructions, a Borrower shall
immediately deliver such payment to Bank in the form received, except for an endorsement to the order of Bank and, pending such delivery,
shall hold such payment in trust for Bank. Bank shall credit all amounts paid into the Bancontrol Account within two Business Days after
clearance of any deposits to the Bancontrol Account to Borrower’s operating account, provided however that Bank may, in its sole
discretion, credit any amounts paid into the Bancontrol Account first against any amounts outstanding and owing to Bank under this Agreement,
and then any remaining balance of such amount shall be credited to a Borrower’s operating account. Borrowers shall enter into such
lockbox agreement as Bank shall reasonably request from time to time. Each Borrower shall cause any third-party payment processors to
execute and deliver an acknowledgment and payment direction letter in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Bank. Bank may, at
its option, conduct a credit check of the account debtor for each Eligible Account requested by a Borrower for inclusion in the Borrowing
Base. During the existence of an Event of Default, Bank may also verify directly with the respective account debtors the validity, amount
and other matters relating to the Eligible Accounts, and notify any account debtor of Bank’s security interest in a Borrower’s
Accounts. Bank may verify invoices at its sole discretion and various forms of verification may be utilized by Bank, which could include
the following: proof of delivery, time cards, matching purchase orders, or contracts to invoices, analyzing customer payment history,
and direct telephonic or written confirmation with (or an acknowledgement and promise to pay from) account debtors.


 


(e)            Computation.
In the event the Prime Rate is changed from time to time hereafter, the applicable rate of interest hereunder shall be increased or decreased,
effective as of the day the Prime Rate is changed, by an amount equal to such change in the Prime Rate. All interest chargeable under
the Loan Documents shall be computed on the basis of a three hundred sixty (360) day year for the actual number of days elapsed.


 


2.4          Crediting Payments. Prior to the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, Bank shall credit a wire transfer of funds,
check or other item of payment to such deposit account or Obligation as Borrower specifies. During the existence of an Event of Default,
the receipt by Bank of any wire transfer of funds, check, or other item of payment shall be immediately applied to conditionally reduce
Obligations, but shall not be considered a payment on account unless such payment is of immediately available federal funds or unless
and until such check or other item of payment is honored when presented for payment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
herein, any wire transfer or payment received by Bank after 12:00 noon Pacific Time shall be deemed to have been received by Bank as of
the opening of business on the immediately following Business Day. Whenever any payment to Bank under the Loan Documents would otherwise
be due (except by reason of acceleration) on a date that is not a Business Day, such payment shall instead be due on the next Business
Day, and additional fees or interest, as the case may be, shall accrue and be payable for the period of such extension.

and effect for so long as any Obligations (other than unasserted contingent indemnification obligations) remain outstanding or Bank has

obligation to make Credit Extensions under this Agreement immediately and without notice upon the occurrence and during the continuance
of an Event of Default. Notwithstanding termination, Bank’s Lien on the Collateral shall remain in effect for so long as any Obligations
(other than unasserted contingent indemnification obligations) are outstanding.

9.            BANK’S
RIGHTS AND REMEDIES.


 


9.1          Rights and Remedies. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Bank may, at its election, without
notice of its election and without demand, do any one or more of the following, all of which are authorized by the Borrowers:


 


(a)         Declare
all or any portion of the Obligations, immediately due and payable (provided that upon the occurrence of an Event of Default described
in Section 8.5, all Obligations shall become immediately due and payable without any action by Bank);


 


(b)         Cease
advancing money or extending credit to or for the benefit of a Borrower under this Agreement or under any other agreement between a Borrower
and Bank;


 


(c)         Make
such payments and do such acts as Bank considers necessary or reasonable to protect its security interest in the Collateral. The Borrowers
shall assemble the Collateral if Bank so requires, and to make the Collateral available to Bank as Bank may designate. The Borrowers authorize
Bank to enter the premises where the Collateral is located, to take and maintain possession of the Collateral, or any part of it, and
to pay, purchase, contest, or compromise any encumbrance, charge, or lien which in Bank’s determination appears to be prior or superior
to its security interest and to pay all expenses incurred in connection therewith. With respect to any of Borrower’s owned premises,
the Borrowers grant Bank a license to enter into possession of such premises and to occupy the same, without charge, in order to exercise
any of Bank’s rights or remedies provided herein, at law, in equity, or otherwise;


 


(d)         Set
off and apply to the Obligations any and all (i) balances and deposits of a Borrower held by Bank, or (ii) indebtedness at any
time owing to or for the credit or the account of a Borrower held by Bank;


 


(e)         Ship,
reclaim, recover, store, finish, maintain, repair, prepare for sale, advertise for sale, and sell (in the manner provided for herein)
the Collateral. Bank is granted a license or other right, solely pursuant to the provisions of this Section 9.1, to use, without
charge, a Borrower’s labels, patents, copyrights, rights of use of any name, trade secrets, trade names, trademarks, service marks,
and advertising matter, or any property of a similar nature, as it pertains to the Collateral, in completing production of, advertising
for sale, and selling any Collateral and, in connection with Bank’s exercise of its rights under this Section 9.1, a Borrower’s
rights under all licenses and all franchise agreements shall inure to Bank’s benefit;


 






    20.


    


    

 


(f)         Dispose
of the Collateral by way of one or more contracts or transactions, for cash or on terms, in such manner and at such places (including
a Borrower’s premises) as Bank determines is commercially reasonable, and apply any proceeds to the Obligations in whatever manner
or order Bank deems appropriate;


 


 (g)         Bank may credit bid and purchase at any public sale; and




 


(h)         Any
deficiency that exists after disposition of the Collateral as provided above will be paid immediately by the Borrowers.


 


9.2
Power of Attorney. Effective only upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Borrower
irrevocably appoints Bank (and any of Bank’s designated officers, or employees) as such Borrower’s true and lawful
attorney to:(a) send requests for verification of Accounts or notify account debtors of Bank’s security interest in the
Accounts; (b) notify all account debtors with respect to the Accounts or any other debtors of a Borrower to pay Bank directly;
(c) sign a Borrower’s name on any invoice or bill of lading relating to any Account, drafts against account debtors,
schedules and assignments of Accounts, verifications of Accounts, and notices to account debtors; (d) make, settle, and adjust
all claims under and decisions with respect to a Borrower’s policies of insurance; (e) demand, collect, receive, sue, and
give releases to any account debtor or other debtor of a Borrower for the monies due or which may become due upon or with respect to
the Accounts and to compromise, prosecute, or defend any action, claim, case or proceeding relating to the Accounts; (f) settle
and adjust disputes and claims respecting the accounts directly with account debtors, for amounts and upon terms which Bank
determines to be reasonable; (g) sell, assign, transfer, pledge, compromise, discharge or otherwise dispose of any Collateral;
(h) receive and open all mail addressed to a Borrower for the purpose of collecting the Accounts; (i) endorse a
Borrower’s name on any checks or other forms of payment or security that may come into Bank’s possession;
(j) execute on behalf of a Borrower any and all instruments, documents, financing statements and the like to perfect Bank's
interests in the Accounts and file, in its sole discretion, one or more financing or continuation statements and amendments thereto,
relative to any of the Collateral; and (k) do all acts and things necessary or expedient, in furtherance of any such purposes;
provided however Bank may exercise such power of attorney with respect to any actions described in clause (j) above, regardless
of whether an Event of Default has occurred. The appointment of Bank as a Borrower’s attorney in fact, and each of
Bank’s rights and powers, being coupled with an interest, is irrevocable until all of the Obligations have been fully repaid
and performed and Bank’s obligation to provide Credit Extensions hereunder is terminated.


 


9.3          Accounts Collection. In addition to the foregoing, at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event
of Default, Bank may notify any Person owing funds to a Borrower of Bank’s security interest in such funds and verify the amount
of such Account. Each Borrower shall collect all amounts owing to Borrower for Bank, receive in trust all payments as Bank’s trustee,
and immediately deliver such payments to Bank in their original form as received from the account debtor, with proper endorsements for
deposit.


 


9.4          Bank Expenses. If a Borrower fails to pay any amounts or furnish any required proof of payment due to third persons or entities,
as required under the terms of this Agreement, then Bank may do any or all of the following: (a) make payment of the same or any
part thereof; (b) set up such reserves under the Revolving Line as Bank deems necessary to protect Bank from the exposure created
by such failure; or (c) obtain and maintain insurance policies of the type discussed in Section 6.7 of this Agreement, and take
any action with respect to such policies as Bank deems prudent. Any amounts so paid or deposited by Bank shall constitute Bank Expenses,
shall be immediately due and payable, and shall bear interest at the then applicable rate hereinabove provided, and shall be secured by
the Collateral. Any payments made by Bank shall not constitute an agreement by Bank to make similar payments in the future or a waiver
by Bank of any Event of Default under this Agreement.


 


9.5          Bank’s
Liability. So long as Bank complies with reasonable banking practices, Bank shall not in any way or manner be liable or
responsible for: (a) the safekeeping of the Collateral; (b) any loss or damage thereto occurring or arising in any manner
or fashion from any cause; (c) any diminution in the value thereof; or (d) any act or default of any carrier,
warehouseman, bailee, forwarding agency, or other person whomsoever. All risk of loss, damage or destruction of the Collateral shall
be borne by the Borrowers. Bank shall in no case be liable for special, consequential or punitive damages arising out of this
Agreement or any transactions contemplated by this Agreement.


 






    21.


    


    

 


9.6          Remedies Cumulative. Bank’s rights and remedies under this Agreement, the Loan Documents, and all other agreements shall
be cumulative. Bank shall have all other rights and remedies not inconsistent herewith as provided under the Code, by law, or in equity.
No exercise by Bank of one right or remedy shall be deemed an election, and no waiver by Bank of any Event of Default on Borrower’s
part shall be deemed a continuing waiver. No delay by Bank shall constitute a waiver, election, or acquiescence by it. No waiver by Bank
shall be effective unless made in a written document signed on behalf of Bank and then shall be effective only in the specific instance
and for the specific purpose for which it was given.


 


9.7          Demand; Protest. Each Borrower waives demand, protest, notice of protest, notice of default or dishonor, notice of payment
and nonpayment, notice of any default, nonpayment at maturity, release, compromise, settlement, extension, or renewal of accounts, documents,
instruments, chattel paper, and guarantees at any time held by Bank on which a Borrower may in any way be liable.

11.            CHOICE
OF LAW AND VENUE; JURY TRIAL WAIVER.


 


This Agreement shall be governed by,
and construed in accordance with, the internal laws of the State of California, without regard to principles of conflicts of law. Jurisdiction
shall lie in the State of California. BANK AND EACH BORROWER ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IS A CONSTITUTIONAL ONE, BUT
THAT IT MAY BE WAIVED. EACH OF THEM, AFTER CONSULTING OR HAVING HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO CONSULT, WITH COUNSEL OF THEIR CHOICE, KNOWINGLY,
VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT ANY OF THEM MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LITIGATION BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT
OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY RELATED INSTRUMENT OR LOAN DOCUMENT OR ANY OF THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY COURSE OF
CONDUCT, DEALING, STATEMENTS (WHETHER ORAL OR WRITTEN), OR ACTION OF ANY OF THEM. THESE PROVISIONS SHALL NOT BE DEEMED TO HAVE BEEN MODIFIED
IN ANY RESPECT OR RELINQUISHED BY BANK OR BORROWER, EXCEPT BY A WRITTEN INSTRUMENT EXECUTED BY EACH OF THEM. WITHOUT INTENDING IN ANY
WAY TO LIMIT THE PARTIES’ AGREEMENT TO WAIVE THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY, if the above waiver of the right to a trial
by jury is not enforceable, the parties hereto agree that any and all disputes or controversies of any nature between them arising at
any time shall be decided by a reference to a private judge, mutually selected by the parties (or, if they cannot agree, by the Presiding
Judge of the Los Angeles County, California Superior Court) appointed in accordance with California Code of Civil Procedure Section 638
(or pursuant to comparable provisions of federal law if the dispute falls within the exclusive jurisdiction of the federal courts), sitting
without a jury, in Los Angeles County, California; and the parties hereby submit to the jurisdiction of such court. The reference proceedings
shall be conducted pursuant to and in accordance with the provisions of California Code of Civil Procedure §§ 638 through 645.1,
inclusive. The private judge shall have the power, among others, to grant provisional relief, including without limitation, entering temporary
restraining orders, issuing preliminary and permanent injunctions and appointing receivers. All such proceedings shall be closed to the
public and confidential and all records relating thereto shall be permanently sealed. If during the course of any dispute, a party desires
to seek provisional relief, but a judge has not been appointed at that point pursuant to the judicial reference procedures, then such
party may apply to the Los Angeles County, California Superior Court for such relief. The proceeding before the private judge shall be
conducted in the same manner as it would be before a court under the rules of evidence applicable to judicial proceedings. The parties
shall be entitled to discovery which shall be conducted in the same manner as it would be before a court under the rules of discovery
applicable to judicial proceedings. The private judge shall oversee discovery and may enforce all discovery rules and orders applicable
to judicial proceedings in the same manner as a trial court judge. The parties agree that the selected or appointed private judge shall
have the power to decide all issues in the action or proceeding, whether of fact or of law, and shall report a statement of decision thereon
pursuant to California Code of Civil Procedure § 644(a). Nothing in this paragraph shall limit the right of any party at any time
to exercise self-help remedies or obtain provisional remedies. The private judge shall also determine all issues relating to the applicability,
interpretation, and enforceability of this paragraph.


 


12.          GENERAL
PROVISIONS.


 


12.1        Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of the respective successors and permitted assigns
of each of the parties; provided, however, that neither this Agreement nor any rights hereunder may be assigned by a Borrower without
Bank’s prior written consent, which consent may be granted or withheld in Bank’s sole discretion. Bank may without the consent
of or notice to a Borrower sell, transfer, negotiate, or grant participation in all or any part of, or any interest in, Bank’s obligations,
rights and benefits hereunder; provided that so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing Bank may not assign, transfer
or grant participation in all or any part of, or any interest in, Bank’s obligations, rights and benefits hereunder or any other
Loan Documents to any Person who is (i) direct competitor of Borrower, whether as an operating company or direct or indirect parent
with voting control over such operating company, or (ii) a vulture or distressed debt fund.


 


12.2        Indemnification.
The Borrowers shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless Bank and its officers, employees, and agents against: (a) all
obligations, demands, claims, and liabilities claimed or asserted by any other party in connection with the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement; and (b) all losses or Bank Expenses in any way suffered, incurred, or paid by Bank as a result
of or in any way arising out of, following, or consequential to transactions between Bank a and a Borrower whether under this
Agreement, or otherwise (including without limitation reasonable and documented attorneys’ fees and expenses), except for
losses caused by Bank’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.


 






    23.


    


    

 


12.3        Time
of Essence. Time is of the essence for the performance of all obligations set forth in this Agreement.


 


12.4        Severability of Provisions. Each provision of this Agreement shall be severable from every other provision of this Agreement
for the purpose of determining the legal enforceability of any specific provision.


 


12.5        Amendments in Writing, Integration. Neither this Agreement nor the Loan Documents can be amended or terminated orally.
All prior agreements, understandings, representations, warranties, and negotiations between the parties hereto with respect to the subject
matter of this Agreement and the Loan Documents, if any, are merged into this Agreement and the Loan Documents.


 


12.6        Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties on separate counterparts,
each of which, when executed and delivered, shall be deemed to be an original, and all of which, when taken together, shall constitute
but one and the same Agreement. In the event that any signature to this Agreement or any other Loan Document is delivered by facsimile
transmission or by e-mail delivery of a “.pdf” format data file, such signature shall create a valid and binding obligation
of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) with the same force and effect as if such facsimile or “.pdf”
signature page were an original thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrowers shall deliver all original signed documents
requested by Bank no later than ten (10) Business Days following the Closing Date.


 


12.7        Survival. All covenants, representations and warranties made in this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect so long
as any Obligations (other than unasserted contingent indemnification obligations) remain outstanding or Bank has any obligation to make
Credit Extensions to a Borrower. The obligations of the Borrowers to indemnify Bank with respect to the expenses, damages, losses, costs
and liabilities described in Section 12.2 shall survive until all applicable statute of limitations periods with respect to actions
that may be brought against Bank have run.


 


12.8        Confidentiality. In handling any confidential information, Bank will exercise the same degree of care that it exercises for
its own proprietary information, but disclosure of information may be made (a) to Bank’s subsidiaries or affiliates in connection
with their business with a Borrower (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential
nature of such information and instructed to keep such information confidential),
(b) to prospective transferees or purchasers of any interest in the loans (provided, however, Bank shall use commercially reasonable
efforts in obtaining such prospective transferee or purchasers agreement of the terms of this provision or terms substantially similar
to the terms of this provision), (c) as required by law, regulation, subpoena, or other order, (d) to Bank’s regulators
or as otherwise required in connection with Bank’s examination or audit (in which case such Person agrees, to the extent permitted
by applicable law, to use commercially reasonable efforts to inform the Borrowers thereof prior to such disclosure), (e) as Bank
considers appropriate exercising remedies under this Agreement and (f) to third-party service providers of Bank so long as such service
providers have executed a confidentiality agreement with Bank with terms no less restrictive than those contained herein. Confidential
information does not include information that is in the public domain or in Bank’s possession when disclosed to Bank, or becomes
part of the public domain (other than as a result of its disclosure by Bank in violation of this Agreement) after disclosure to Bank or
(y) is disclosed to Bank by a third party, if Bank does not know that the third party is prohibited from disclosing the information.

that identifies a Borrower, which information includes names and addresses and other information that will allow Bank to identify a Borrower

13.          CO-BORROWER
PROVISIONS


 


13.1        Primary Obligation. This Agreement is a primary and original obligation of each Borrower and shall remain in effect notwithstanding
future changes in conditions, including any change of law or any invalidity or irregularity in the creation or acquisition of any Obligations
or in the execution or delivery of any agreement between Bank and any Borrower. Each Borrower shall be liable for existing and future
Obligations as fully as if all of all Credit Extensions were advanced to such Borrower. Bank may rely on any certificate or representation
made by any Borrower as made on behalf of, and binding on, all Borrowers.


 


13.2        Enforcement of Rights. The Borrowers are jointly and severally liable for the Obligations and Bank may proceed against one
or more of the Borrowers to enforce the Obligations without waiving its right to proceed against any of the other Borrowers.


 


13.3        Borrowers as Agents. Each Borrower appoints the other Borrower as its agent with all necessary power and authority to give
and receive notices, certificates or demands for and on behalf of both Borrowers, to act as disbursing agent for receipt of any Credit
Extensions on behalf of each Borrower and to apply to Bank on behalf of each Borrower for Credit Extensions, any waivers and any consents.
This authorization cannot be revoked, and Bank need not inquire as to each Borrower’s authority to act for or on behalf of the Borrowers.


 


13.4        Subrogation and Similar Rights. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, until the
Obligations have been repaid in full, each Borrower irrevocably waives all rights that it may have at law or in equity (including, without
limitation, any law subrogating such Borrower to the rights of Bank under the Loan Documents) to seek contribution, indemnification, or
any other form of reimbursement from any other Borrower, or any other Person now or hereafter primarily or secondarily liable for any
of the Obligations, for any payment made by such Borrower with respect to the Obligations in connection with the Loan Documents or otherwise
and all rights that it might have to benefit from, or to participate in, any security for the Obligations as a result of any payment made
by such Borrower with respect to the Obligations in connection with the Loan Documents or otherwise. Any agreement providing for indemnification,
reimbursement or any other arrangement prohibited under this Section 13.4 shall be null and void. If any payment is made to a Borrower
in contravention of this Section 13.4, such Borrower shall hold such payment in trust for Bank and such payment shall be promptly
delivered to Bank for application to the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured.


 


13.5        Waivers of Notice. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, each Borrower waives any defense arising from any defense
of any other Borrower, or by reason of the cessation from any cause whatsoever of the liability of any other Borrower. Bank’s failure
at any time to require strict performance by any Borrower of any provision of the Loan Documents shall not waive, alter or diminish any
right of Bank thereafter to demand strict compliance and performance therewith. Nothing contained herein shall prevent Bank from foreclosing
on the Lien of any deed of trust, mortgage or other security instrument, or exercising any rights available thereunder, and the exercise
of any such rights shall not constitute a legal or equitable discharge of any Borrower. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable
law, each Borrower also waives any defense arising from any act or omission of Bank that changes the scope of such Borrower’s risks
hereunder.


 


13.6        Subrogation Defenses. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, each Borrower hereby waives any defense based on impairment
or destruction of its subrogation or other rights against any other Borrower, and under any other similar statutes now and hereafter in
effect.


 


13.7        Right
to Settle, Release.


 


(a)         The
liability of the Borrowers hereunder shall not be diminished by (i) any agreement, understanding or representation that any of the
Obligations is or was to be guaranteed by another Person or secured by other property, or (ii) any release or unenforceability, whether
partial or total, of rights, if any, which Bank may now or hereafter have against any other Person, including another Borrower, or property
with respect to any of the Obligations.


 






    25.


    


    

 


(b)         Without
affecting the liability of any Borrower hereunder, Bank may (i) compromise, settle, renew, extend the time for payment, change
the manner or terms of payment, discharge the performance of, decline to enforce, or release all or any of the Obligations with
respect to a Borrower, (ii) grant other indulgences to a Borrower in respect of the Obligations, (iii) modify in any
manner any documents relating to the Obligations with respect to the other Borrower, (iv) release, surrender or exchange any
deposits or other property securing the Obligations, whether pledged by a Borrower or any other Person, or (v) compromise,
settle, renew, or extend the time for payment, discharge the performance of, decline to enforce, or release all or any obligations
of any guarantor, endorser or other Person who is now or may hereafter be liable with respect to any of the Obligations.


 


13.8        Subordination.
All Indebtedness of a Borrower now or hereafter arising and held by another Borrower is subordinated to the Obligations and the Borrower
holding such Indebtedness shall take all actions reasonably requested by Bank to effect, to enforce and to give notice of such subordination.
