on Bank’s books and records (either manually or by electronic entry) and/or on any schedule attached to this Note, which notations shall be prima facie evidence of the accuracy of the information noted. 

(b)    Selection of Interest Rate Options. Subject to the provisions herein regarding LIBOR Periods and the prior
notice required for the selection of a LIBOR interest rate, (i) at any time any portion of this Note bears interest determined in relation to LIBOR, it may be continued by Borrower at the end of the LIBOR Period applicable thereto so that all

method as Bank may permit) so long as it is given in accordance with the foregoing and, with respect to each LIBOR selection, if requested by Bank, Borrower provides to Bank written confirmation thereof not later than three State Business Days after
such notice is given. Borrower shall reimburse Bank immediately upon demand for any loss or expense (including any loss or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or redeployment of funds obtained to fund or maintain a LIBOR borrowing)

immediately upon written demand, in addition to any other amounts due or to become due hereunder, any and all (i) withholdings, stamp taxes or other taxes (other than any Excluded Taxes (as defined below)) imposed by any domestic or foreign
governmental authority and related in any manner to LIBOR, and (ii) future, supplemental, emergency or other changes in the LIBOR Reserve Percentage, assessment rates imposed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, or similar requirements
or costs imposed by any domestic or foreign governmental authority or resulting from compliance by Bank with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any central bank or other governmental authority and related in any
manner to LIBOR to the extent they are not included in the calculation of LIBOR. In determining which of the foregoing are attributable to any LIBOR option available to Borrower hereunder, any reasonable allocation made by Bank among its operations
shall be conclusive and binding upon Borrower, absent manifest error. 
 If Bank determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith,
that it has received a refund of any taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this paragraph (c), it shall pay to Borrower an amount equal to such refund, net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including taxes) of such Bank and without
interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant governmental authority with respect to such refund). 
 Bank shall use reasonable
efforts to mitigate any amounts otherwise owed by Borrower pursuant to this paragraph (c), including by designating a different lending office or assigning its rights to an affiliate, provided such designation or assignment does not result in any
unreimbursed cost and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to Bank. If Bank declines or is unable to make such designation or assignment, then Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to Bank, require such Bank to assign and
delegate all of its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments under the Loan Documents, including this paragraph (c)) and obligations under the Loan Documents to an eligible assignee that shall assume such obligations. 

“Excluded Taxes” shall mean any (i) income, franchise and branch profits taxes or any Taxes imposed as a result of the
Lender’s connection to a jurisdiction, (ii) taxes imposed pursuant to a law in effect as of the date hereof (or, with respect to an assignee, on the date of such assignment) or as of the date such Bank changes its lending office,
(iii) taxes attributable to Bank’s failure to deliver, (A) if it is a U.S. Person (as defined in the Code), a duly executed IRS Form W-9, (B) if it is not a U.S. Person, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, an
applicable IRS Form W-8, duly executed, and, to the extent it is claiming the benefits for portfolio interest under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code, a portfolio interest certificate in a form reasonably acceptable to Borrower,
(C) such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including under Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by Borrower as may be necessary for Borrower to comply with its obligations
under FATCA (as defined below) and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment and (D) any other duly executed form prescribed by
applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding tax, and (iv) any backup withholding taxes and all liabilities, penalties and interest with respect to any of the foregoing. 

  
 Annex 2-5 








 “FATCA” shall mean Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code, as of the date of this Agreement (or any
amended or successor version that is substantively comparable and not materially more onerous to comply with), any current or future regulations or official interpretations thereof, any agreements entered into pursuant to Section 1471(b)(1) of
the Code, any applicable intergovernmental agreements with respect thereto and any fiscal or regulatory legislation, rules or practices adopted pursuant to any of the foregoing; provided, however, that for purposes of clause (iii)(C) of the
definition of Excluded Taxes, “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date hereof. 

(d)    Payment of Interest. Interest accrued on this Note shall be payable quarterly, on the first (1st) day
of each calendar quarter, beginning on the first (1st) day of the calendar quarter following the applicable borrowing under this Note. 

(e)    Default Interest. From and after the maturity date of this Note, or such earlier date as all principal owing
hereunder becomes due and payable by acceleration or otherwise, or at Bank’s option upon the occurrence, and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the outstanding principal balance of this Note shall bear interest at an increased rate
per annum (computed on the basis of a 360-day year, actual days elapsed) equal to two percent (2%) above the rate of interest from time to time applicable to this Note. 

BORROWING AND REPAYMENT: 

(a)    Borrowing and Repayment. Borrower may from time to time during the term of this Note borrow, partially or
wholly repay its outstanding borrowings, and reborrow, subject to all of the limitations, terms and conditions of this Note and of any document executed in connection with or governing this Note; provided however, that the total outstanding
borrowings under this Note shall not at any time exceed the principal amount stated above. The unpaid principal balance of this obligation at any time shall be the total amounts advanced hereunder by the holder hereof less the amount of principal
payments made hereon by or for Borrower, which balance may be endorsed hereon from time to time by the holder. The outstanding principal balance of this Note shall be due and payable in full on the Line of Credit Maturity Date. 

(b)    Advances. Advances hereunder, to the total amount of the principal sum stated above, may be made by the
holder at the oral or written request of (i) Borrower’s Executive Vice President/Chief Financial Officer, Senior Vice President/Corporate Controller, Senior VP -Finance and Investor Relations or General Counsel, any one acting alone, who
are authorized to request advances and direct the disposition of any advances until written notice of the revocation of such authority is received by the holder at the office designated above, or (ii) any person, with respect to advances
deposited to the credit of any deposit account of Borrower, which advances, when so deposited, shall be conclusively presumed to have been made to or for the benefit of Borrower regardless of the fact that persons other than those authorized to
request advances may have authority to draw against such account. The holder shall have no obligation to determine whether any person requesting an advance is or has been authorized by Borrower. 

  
 Annex 2-6 








 (c)    Application of Payments. Each payment made on this Note shall
be credited first, to any interest then due and second, to the outstanding principal balance hereof. All payments credited to principal shall be applied first, to the outstanding principal balance of this Note which bears interest determined in
relation to the Base Rate, if any, and second, to the outstanding principal balance of this Note which bears interest determined in relation to LIBOR, with such payments applied to the oldest LIBOR Period first. 

PREPAYMENT: 
 (a)    Base
Rate. Borrower may prepay principal on any portion of this Note which bears interest determined in relation to the Base Rate at any time, in any amount and without penalty. 

(b)    LIBOR. Borrower may prepay principal on any portion of this Note which bears interest determined in relation
to LIBOR at any time and in the minimum amount of Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000.00); provided however, that if the outstanding principal balance of such portion of this Note is less than said amount, the minimum prepayment amount shall be
the entire outstanding principal balance thereof. In consideration of Bank providing this prepayment option to Borrower, or if any such portion of this Note shall become due and payable at any time prior to the last day of the LIBOR Period
applicable thereto by acceleration or otherwise, Borrower shall pay to Bank immediately upon written demand a fee which is the sum of the discounted monthly differences for each month from the month of prepayment through the month in which such
LIBOR Period ends, calculated as follows for each such month: 
 (i) Determine the amount of interest which would have accrued each month on
the amount prepaid at the interest rate applicable to such amount had it remained outstanding until the last day of the LIBOR Period applicable thereto. 

(ii) Subtract from the amount determined in (i) above the amount of interest which would have accrued for the same month on the amount
prepaid for the remaining term of such LIBOR Period at LIBOR in effect on the date of prepayment for new loans made for such term and in a principal amount equal to the amount prepaid. 

(iii) If the result obtained in (ii) for any month is greater than zero, discount that difference by LIBOR used in (ii) above. 

Borrower acknowledges that prepayment of such amount may result in Bank incurring additional costs, expenses and/or liabilities, and that it
is difficult to ascertain the full extent of such costs, expenses and/or liabilities. Borrower, therefore, agrees to pay the above-described prepayment fee and agrees that said amount represents a reasonable estimate of the prepayment costs,
expenses and/or liabilities of Bank. If Borrower fails to pay any prepayment fee when due, the amount of such prepayment fee shall thereafter bear interest until paid at a rate per annum two percent (2.00%) above the Prime Rate in effect from
time to time (computed on the basis of a 360-day year, actual days elapsed). 

  
 Annex 2-7 








 EVENTS OF DEFAULT: 

This Note is made pursuant to and is subject to the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement. Any default in the payment or performance of
any obligation under this Note, or any defined event of default under the Credit Agreement, shall constitute an “Event of Default” under this Note. 

MISCELLANEOUS: 

(a)    Remedies. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, the holder of this Note, at the holder’s option,
may declare all sums of principal and interest outstanding hereunder to be immediately due and payable without presentment, demand, notice of nonperformance, notice of protest, protest or notice of dishonor, all of which are expressly waived by
Borrower, and the obligation, if any, of the holder to extend any further credit hereunder shall immediately cease and terminate. Borrower shall pay to the holder immediately upon written 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 the holder’s in-house counsel), expended or incurred by the holder in connection with the enforcement of the holder’s
rights and/or the collection of any amounts which become due to the holder under this Note, and the prosecution or defense of any action in any way related to this Note, including without limitation, any action for declaratory relief, 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 Borrower or any other person or entity. 

(b)    Governing Law. This Note shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of
California. 
 (c)    No Novation. This Note amends, restates, replaces and supersedes (but shall not constitute
a novation of) (i) that certain Revolving Line of Credit Note, dated January 18, 2013, in the original principal face amount of $75,000,000 and (ii) that certain Amended and Restated Revolving Line of Credit Note, dated June 3,
2015, in the original principal face amount of $150,000,000, in each case made by Borrower to the order of Bank,

As used herein, the following terms shall have the meanings set forth after each, and any other term defined in this Note shall have the
meaning set forth at the place defined: 
 (a)    “Base Rate” means, for any day, a fluctuating rate equal to
the highest of: (i) the Prime Rate in effect on such day, (ii) a rate determined by Bank to be one and one-half percent (1.50%) above Daily One Month LIBOR in effect on such day, and (iii) the Federal Funds Rate plus one and
one-half percent (1.50%).

annum equal to the weighted average of the rates on overnight Federal funds transactions with members of the Federal Reserve System arranged by Federal funds brokers for the immediately preceding day, as published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New
York; provided that if no such rate is so published on any day, then the Federal Funds Rate for such day shall be the rate most recently published. 

(e)    “LIBOR” means (i) for the purpose of calculating effective rates of interest for loans making
reference to LIBOR Periods, the rate of interest per annum determined by Bank based on the rate for United States dollar deposits for delivery on the first day of each LIBOR Period for a period approximately equal to such LIBOR Period as reported on
Reuters Screen LIBOR01 page (or any successor page) at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, two London Business Days prior to the first day of such LIBOR Period (or if not so reported, then as determined by Bank from another recognized source or
interbank quotation), or (ii) for the purpose of calculating effective rates of interest for loans making reference to the Daily One Month LIBOR Rate, the rate of interest per annum determined by Bank based on the rate for United States dollar
deposits for delivery of funds for one (1) month as reported on Reuters 

  
 Annex 3-2 








 
Screen LIBOR01 page (or any successor page) at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, or, for any day not a London Business Day, the immediately preceding London Business Day (or if not so

is not a New York Business Day (so that a new LIBOR Period could not be selected by Borrower to start on such day), then such LIBOR Period shall continue up to, but shall not include, the next New York Business Day after the end of such LIBOR
Period, unless the result of such extension would be to cause any immediately following LIBOR Period to begin in the next calendar month in which event the LIBOR Period shall continue up to, but shall not include, the New York Business Day
immediately preceding the last day of such LIBOR Period, and (iii) no LIBOR Period shall extend beyond the scheduled maturity date hereof.

fluctuating rate per annum determined by Bank to be the Applicable Margin above the Base Rate in effect from time to time, or (ii) at a fixed rate per annum determined by Bank to be the Applicable Margin above LIBOR in effect on the first day
of the applicable LIBOR Period, with Applicable Margin defined according to the table below (and with the term “Total Funded Debt to Adjusted EBITDA Ratio” as defined in the Credit Agreement): 

  
 Annex 3-3 









					
	
Total Funded Debt to Adjusted
EBITDA Ratio
	 	Applicable Margin
(LIBOR Period)	 	Applicable Margin (Base
Rate)
	 Less than 0.75
..to 1.00

	 	1.875%	 	0.875%

 When interest is determined in relation to the Base Rate, each change in the rate of interest hereunder shall become effective
on the date each Base Rate change is announced within Bank. With respect to each LIBOR selection hereunder, Bank is hereby authorized to note the date, principal amount, interest rate and LIBOR Period applicable thereto and any payments made thereon
on Bank’s books and records (either manually or by electronic entry) and/or on any schedule attached to this Note, which notations shall be prima facie evidence of the accuracy of the information noted. 

(a)    Selection of Interest Rate Options. Subject to the provisions herein regarding LIBOR Periods and the prior
notice required for the selection of a LIBOR interest rate, (i) at any time any portion of this Note bears interest determined in relation to LIBOR, it may be continued by Borrower at the end of the LIBOR Period applicable thereto so that all
or a portion thereof bears interest determined in relation to the Base Rate or to LIBOR for a new LIBOR Period designated by Borrower, (ii) at any time any portion of this Note bears interest determined in relation to the Base Rate, Borrower
may convert all or a portion thereof so that it bears interest determined in relation to LIBOR for a LIBOR Period designated by Borrower and (iii) at the time the Draw is made hereunder, Borrower may choose to have all or a portion thereof bear
interest determined in relation to the Base Rate or to LIBOR for a LIBOR Period designated by Borrower. 
 To select an interest rate option
hereunder determined in relation to LIBOR for a LIBOR Period, Borrower shall give Bank notice thereof that is received by Bank prior to 11:00 a.m. California time on a State Business Day at least two State Business Days prior to the first day of the
LIBOR Period, or at a later time during such State Business Day if Bank, at its sole discretion, accepts Borrower’s notice and quotes a fixed rate to Borrower. Such notice shall specify: (A) the interest rate option selected by Borrower,
(B) the principal amount subject thereto, and (C) for each LIBOR selection, the length of the applicable LIBOR Period. If Bank has not received such notice in accordance with the foregoing before an advance is made hereunder or before the
end of any LIBOR Period, Borrower shall be deemed to have made a Base Rate interest selection for such advance or the principal amount to which such LIBOR Period applied. Any such notice may be given by telephone (or such other electronic method as
Bank may permit) so long as it is given in accordance with the foregoing and, with respect to each LIBOR selection, if requested by Bank, Borrower provides to Bank written confirmation thereof not later than three State Business Days after such
notice is given. Borrower shall reimburse Bank immediately upon demand for any loss or expense (including any loss or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or redeployment of funds obtained to fund or maintain a LIBOR borrowing) incurred by
Bank as a result of the failure of Borrower to accept or complete a LIBOR borrowing hereunder after making a request therefor. Any reasonable determination of such amounts by Bank shall be conclusive and binding upon Borrower. 

  
 Annex 3-4 








 (b)    Taxes and Regulatory Costs. Borrower shall pay to Bank
immediately upon written demand, in addition to any other amounts due or to become due hereunder, any and all (i) withholdings, stamp taxes or other taxes (other than any Excluded Taxes (as defined below)) imposed by any domestic or foreign
governmental authority and related in any manner to LIBOR, and (ii) future, supplemental, emergency or other changes in the LIBOR Reserve Percentage, assessment rates imposed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, or similar requirements
or costs imposed by any domestic or foreign governmental authority or resulting from compliance by Bank with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any central bank or other governmental authority and related in any
manner to LIBOR to the extent they are not included in the calculation of LIBOR. In determining which of the foregoing are attributable to any LIBOR option available to Borrower hereunder, any reasonable allocation made by Bank among its operations
shall be conclusive and binding upon Borrower, absent manifest error. 
 If Bank determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith,
that it has received a refund of any taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this paragraph (c), it shall pay to Borrower an amount equal to such refund, net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including taxes) of such Bank and without
interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant governmental authority with respect to such refund). 
 Bank shall use reasonable
efforts to mitigate any amounts otherwise owed by Borrower pursuant to this paragraph (c), including by designating a different lending office or assigning its rights to an affiliate, provided such designation or assignment does not result in any
unreimbursed cost and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to Bank. If Bank declines or is unable to make such designation or assignment, then Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to Bank, require such Bank to assign and
delegate all of its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments under the Loan Documents, including this paragraph (c)) and obligations under the Loan Documents to an eligible assignee that shall assume such obligations. 

“Excluded Taxes” shall mean any (i) income, franchise and branch profits taxes or any Taxes imposed as a result of the
Lender’s connection to a jurisdiction, (ii) taxes imposed pursuant to a law in effect as of the date hereof (or, with respect to an assignee, on the date of such assignment) or as of the date such Bank changes its lending office,
(iii) taxes attributable to Bank’s failure to deliver, (A) if it is a U.S. Person (as defined in the Code), a duly executed IRS Form W-9, (B) if it is not a U.S. Person, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, an
applicable IRS Form W-8, duly executed, and, to the extent it is claiming the benefits for portfolio interest under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code, a portfolio interest certificate in a form reasonably acceptable to Borrower,
(C) such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including under Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by Borrower as may be necessary for Borrower to comply with its obligations
under FATCA (as defined below) and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment and (D) any other duly executed form prescribed by
applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding tax, and (iv) any backup withholding taxes and all liabilities, penalties and interest with respect to any of the foregoing. 

  
 Annex 3-5 








 “FATCA” shall mean Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code, as of the date of this Agreement (or any
amended or successor version that is substantively comparable and not materially more onerous to comply with), any current or future regulations or official interpretations thereof, any agreements entered into pursuant to Section 1471(b)(1) of
the Code, any applicable intergovernmental agreements with respect thereto and any fiscal or regulatory legislation, rules or practices adopted pursuant to any of the foregoing; provided, however, that for purposes of clause (iii)(C) of the
definition of Excluded Taxes, “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date hereof. 

(c)    Payment of Interest. Interest accrued on this Note shall be payable quarterly, on the first (1st) day
of each calendar quarter, beginning on the first (1st) day of the first calendar quarter following the Draw. 

(d)    Default Interest. From and after the maturity date of this Note, or such earlier date as all principal owing
hereunder becomes due and payable by acceleration or otherwise, or at Bank’s option upon the occurrence, and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the outstanding principal balance of this Note shall bear interest at an increased rate
per annum (computed on the basis of a 360-day year, actual days elapsed) equal to two percent (2%) above the rate of interest from time to time applicable to this Note. 

BORROWING AND REPAYMENT: 

(a)    Borrowing and Repayment. Borrower may at one time designated by the Borrower from the date of this Note up
to and including March 23, 2016, borrow (the “Draw”), subject to all of the limitations, terms and conditions of this Note and of any document executed in connection with or governing this Note; provided however, that amounts repaid
may not be reborrowed; and provided further, that the total borrowings under this Note shall not exceed the principal amount stated above. The unpaid principal balance of this obligation at any time shall be the total amounts advanced hereunder by
the holder hereof less the amount of principal payments made hereon by or for Borrower, which balance may be endorsed hereon from time to time by the holder. 

(b)    Required Principal Payments. The outstanding principal balance of this Note shall be amortized over a period
of sixty (60) months, beginning on the date of disbursement of the Draw (the “Draw Date”), with principal payable in equal successive installments on the first (1st) day of each calendar quarter over said amortization term
(except that if the period between the Draw Date and the first day of the next calendar quarter is less than a full quarter, then the payment applicable to such partial quarter shall be prorated based on a thirty (30) day month), and continuing
up to and including July 1, 2020, with a final installment consisting of all remaining unpaid principal due and payable in full on the Term Loan Maturity Date. 

(c)    Draw. The Draw hereunder, to the total amount of the principal sum stated above and up to and including
March 23, 2016, may be made by the holder at the oral or written request of (i) Borrower’s Executive Vice President/Chief Financial Officer, Senior Vice President/Corporate Controller, Senior VP-Finance and Investor Relations or
General Counsel, 

  
 Annex 3-6 








 
any one acting alone, who are authorized to request the Draw and direct the disposition of the Draw until written notice of the revocation of such authority is received by the holder at the
office designated above, or (ii) any person, with respect to a Draw deposited to the credit of any deposit account of Borrower, which Draw, when so deposited, shall be conclusively presumed to have been made to or for the benefit of Borrower
regardless of the fact that persons other than those authorized to request the Draw may have authority to draw against such account. The holder shall have no obligation to determine whether any person requesting the Draw is or has been authorized by
Borrower. 
 (d)    Application of Payments. Each payment made on this Note shall be credited first, to any
interest then due and second, to the outstanding principal balance. All payments credited to principal shall be applied first, to the outstanding principal balance of this Note which bears interest determined in relation to the Base Rate, if any,
and second, to the outstanding principal balance of this Note which bears interest determined in relation to LIBOR, with such payments applied to the oldest LIBOR Period first. 

PREPAYMENT: 
 (a)    Base
Rate. Borrower may prepay principal on any portion of this Note which bears interest determined in relation to the Base Rate at any time, in any amount and without penalty. 

(b)    LIBOR. Borrower may prepay principal on any portion of this Note which bears interest determined in relation
to LIBOR at any time and in the minimum amount of Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000.00); provided however, that if the outstanding principal balance of such portion of this Note is less than said amount, the minimum prepayment amount shall be
the entire outstanding principal balance thereof. In consideration of Bank providing this prepayment option to Borrower, or if any such portion of this Note shall become due and payable at any time prior to the last day of the LIBOR Period
applicable thereto by acceleration or otherwise, Borrower shall pay to Bank immediately upon written demand a fee which is the sum of the discounted monthly differences for each month from the month of prepayment through the month in which such
LIBOR Period ends, calculated as follows for each such month: 
 (i) Determine the amount of interest which would have accrued each month on
the amount prepaid at the interest rate applicable to such amount had it remained outstanding until the last day of the LIBOR Period applicable thereto. 

(ii) Subtract from the amount determined in (i) above the amount of interest which would have accrued for the same month on the amount
prepaid for the remaining term of such LIBOR Period at LIBOR in effect on the date of prepayment for new loans made for such term and in a principal amount equal to the amount prepaid. 

(iii) If the result obtained in (ii) for any month is greater than zero, discount that difference by LIBOR used in (ii) above. 

Borrower acknowledges that prepayment of such amount may result in Bank incurring additional costs, expenses and/or liabilities, and that it
is difficult to ascertain the full extent of such costs, expenses and/or liabilities. Borrower, therefore, agrees to pay the above-described 

  
 Annex 3-7 








 
prepayment fee and agrees that said amount represents a reasonable estimate of the prepayment costs, expenses and/or liabilities of Bank. If Borrower fails to pay any prepayment fee when due, the
amount of such prepayment fee shall thereafter bear interest until paid at a rate per annum two percent (2.00%) above the Prime Rate in effect from time to time (computed on the basis of a 360-day year, actual days elapsed). 

EVENTS OF DEFAULT: 
 This Note is made pursuant
to and is subject to the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement. Any default in the payment or performance of any obligation under this Note, or any defined event of default under the Credit Agreement, shall constitute an “Event of
Default” under this Note. 
 MISCELLANEOUS: 

(a)    Remedies. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, the holder of this Note, at the holder’s option,
may declare all sums of principal and interest outstanding hereunder to be immediately due and payable without presentment, demand, notice of nonperformance, notice of protest, protest or notice of dishonor, all of which are expressly waived by
Borrower, and the obligation, if any, of the holder to extend any further credit hereunder shall immediately cease and terminate. Borrower shall pay to the holder immediately upon written 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 the holder’s in-house counsel), expended or incurred by the holder in connection with the enforcement of the holder’s
rights and/or the collection of any amounts which become due to the holder under this Note, and the prosecution or defense of any action in any way related to this Note, including without limitation, any action for declaratory relief, 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 Borrower or any other person or entity. 

(b)    Governing Law. This Note shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of
California.
