 WHEREAS, Borrower, Holdings, Agent and Lenders are parties to that certain Amended and Restated Credit

 WHEREAS, Holdings has advised Agent that it desires (i) to establish Blue Jay Merger Sub Inc., a
Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Holdings (“Fusepoint Acquisition Sub”), (ii) to cause Fusepoint Acquisition Sub to enter into that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of the date hereof, a copy of
which is attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Fusepoint Acquisition Agreement”) by and among Fusepoint Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Fusepoint”), Fusepoint Acquisition Sub, Holdings and M/C Venture Partners V,
L.P., as stockholders representative, pursuant to which Fusepoint Acquisition Sub will merge with and into Fusepoint (the “Fusepoint Purchase Acquisition”); each of (x) entering into the Fusepoint Acquisition Agreement and
(y) the Fusepoint Purchase Acquisition would otherwise be prohibited by Section 6.3 of the Credit Agreement; 

WHEREAS, Borrower and Holdings have requested that Agent and Lenders consent (i) to Holdings entering into the Fusepoint Acquisition
Agreement and (ii) to the Fusepoint Purchase Acquisition and Agent and Lenders have agreed to the foregoing subject to the terms and conditions contained herein; and 

WHEREAS, Borrower has requested that Agent and Lenders amend the Credit Agreement to increase the Maximum Revolver Amount to $125,000,000
by increasing the Revolver Commitment of Wells Fargo Capital Finance, LLC by $75,000,000 and Agent, Lenders, Borrower and Holdings have agreed to amend the Credit Agreement as set forth herein. 

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual conditions and agreements set forth in the Credit Agreement and this Amendment, and other
good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows: 

1. Consent. Subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 4 below, and in reliance upon the
representations and warranties of Borrower set forth in Section 3 below, Agent and Lenders hereby consent to (i) Holdings entering into the Fusepoint Acquisition Agreement and (ii) to the Fusepoint Purchase Acquisition in
accordance with the terms of the 







 
Fusepoint Acquisition Agreement although the Fusepoint Purchase Acquisition does not qualify as a Permitted Acquisition. Except as expressly set forth in this Amendment, the foregoing consent
shall not constitute (a) a modification or alteration of the terms, conditions or covenants of the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document, or (b) a waiver, release or limitation upon the exercise by Agent or any Lender of any of its
rights, legal or equitable, thereunder. 
 2. Amendments. Subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in
Section 4 below, and in reliance upon the representations and warranties of Borrower set forth in Section 3 below, the Credit Agreement is amended as follows: 

(a) Section 2.1(d) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows: 

(d) So long as (i) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would result therefrom, and (ii) both before
and after giving effect to any such increase, Borrower is in pro forma compliance with the financial covenants set forth in Section 7 (regardless of whether such financial covenants would otherwise be tested at such time) for the most
recently ended measurement period or date and assuming such increase was made on the last day of such period or on such date, Borrower may elect to increase the Maximum Revolver Amount in increments of not less than $5,000,000 each up to $25,000,000
in the aggregate at any time after the Seventh Amendment Effective Date and on or before June 14, 2010 by providing 3 Business Days’ prior written notice thereof to Agent; provided, that (i) no increase shall occur unless it is
concurrent with or after the Fusepoint Advance has been funded, (ii) at no time shall the aggregate amount of such increase cause the Maximum Revolver Amount to exceed $150,000,000 and (iii) no Lender shall be obligated to increase its
Revolver Commitment. Such increases may be provided by any existing Lender, in each case on terms permitted in this Section 2.1(d) and otherwise on terms reasonably acceptable to Agent, or by any other lender (any such other lender being
called an “Additional Lender”); provided, that Agent shall have consented to such Lender’s or Additional Lender’s providing such increase, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld. Any such increases shall
become Revolver Commitments under this Agreement pursuant to an amendment to this Agreement and as appropriate, the other Loan Documents, executed by Holdings, Borrower, each Lender agreeing to provide such increase, if any, each Additional Lender,
if any, and Agent. Such amendment may, without the consent of any other Lenders or Loan Parties, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of Agent and
Borrower, to effect the provisions of this Section. The effectiveness of any such Amendment shall be subject to the satisfaction on the date thereof of each of the conditions set forth in Section 3.2 (it being understood that all
references to “the date of such extension of credit” or similar language in such Section 3.2 shall be deemed to refer to the effective date of such amendment) and such other conditions as the parties thereto shall agree. This
Section 2.1(d) shall supersede any provisions in Section 13.1 to the contrary.
