$250,000 and (iii) the duration of the first Interest Period therefor. Interest Periods for Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be for one, two or three months; provided, if an Interest Period would end on a day that is not a Business Day, it
shall end on the next succeeding Business Day unless such day falls in the next succeeding calendar month in which case the Interest Period shall end on the next preceding Business Day. No Eurodollar Rate Loan shall be made available to Borrowers
during the continuance of a Default or an Event of Default. After giving effect to each requested Eurodollar Rate Loan, including those which are converted from a Domestic Rate Loan under Section 2.2(d), there shall not be outstanding more than
eight (8) Eurodollar Rate Loans, in the aggregate. 
 (c) Each Interest Period of a Eurodollar Rate Loan shall commence on the date such
Eurodollar Rate Loan is made and shall end on such date as Borrowing Agent may elect as set forth in subsection (b)(iii) above provided that the exact length of each Interest Period shall be determined in accordance with the practice of the
interbank market for offshore Dollar deposits and no Interest Period shall end after the last day of the Term. 
  

 26 








 Borrowing Agent shall elect the initial Interest Period applicable to a Eurodollar Rate Loan by its
notice of borrowing given to Agent pursuant to Section 2.2(b) or by its notice of conversion given to Agent pursuant to Section 2.2(e), as the case may be. Borrowing Agent shall elect the duration of each succeeding Interest Period by
giving irrevocable written notice to Agent of such duration not later than 10:00 a.m. on the day which is three (3) Business Days prior to the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable to such Eurodollar Rate Loan. If Agent
receives timely notice of the Interest Period elected by Borrowing Agent, but Borrowing Agent fails to so effect the duration of the succeeding Interest Period, Borrowers shall be deemed to have elected an Interest Period of one month’s
duration. If Agent does not receive timely notice of the Interest Period elected by Borrowing Agent, Borrowers shall be deemed to have elected to convert to a Domestic Rate Loan subject to Section 2.2(e) below. 
 (d) Provided that no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, any Borrower may, on the last Business Day of the then current Interest
Period applicable to any outstanding Eurodollar Rate Loan, or on any Business Day with respect to Domestic Rate Loans, convert any such loan into a loan of another type in the same aggregate principal amount provided that any conversion of a
Eurodollar Rate Loan shall be made only on the last Business Day of the then current Interest Period applicable to such Eurodollar Rate Loan. If a Borrower desires to convert a loan, Borrowing Agent shall give Agent written notice not less than
three (3) Business Days’ prior written notice to convert from a Domestic Rate Loan to a Eurodollar Rate Loan or one (1) Business Day’s prior written notice to convert from a Eurodollar Rate Loan to a Domestic Rate Loan,
specifying the date of such conversion, the loans to be converted and if the conversion is from a Domestic Rate Loan to any other type of loan, the duration of the first Interest Period therefor. After giving effect to each such conversion, there
shall not be outstanding more than eight (8) Eurodollar Rate Loans. 
 (e) At its option and upon written notice given prior to 10:00
a.m. (Philadelphia time) at least three (3) Business Days prior to the date of such prepayment, any Borrower may prepay the Eurodollar Rate Loans in whole at any time or in part from time to time with accrued interest on the principal being
prepaid to the date of such repayment. Such Borrower shall specify the date of prepayment of Advances which are Eurodollar Rate Loans and the amount of such prepayment. In the event that any prepayment of a Eurodollar Rate Loan is required or
permitted on a date other than the last Business Day of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto, such Borrower shall indemnify Agent and Lenders therefor in accordance with Section 2.2(f) hereof. 
 (f) Each Borrower shall indemnify Agent and Lenders and hold Agent and Lenders harmless from and against any and all losses or expenses that Agent and
Lenders may sustain or incur as a consequence of any prepayment, conversion of or any default by any Borrower in the payment of the principal of or interest on any Eurodollar Rate Loan or failure by any Borrower to complete a borrowing of, a
prepayment of or conversion of or to a Eurodollar Rate Loan after notice thereof has been given, including, but not limited to, any interest payable by Agent or Lenders to lenders of funds obtained by it in order to make or maintain its Eurodollar
Rate Loans hereunder. A certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to the foregoing sentence submitted by Agent or any Lender to Borrowing Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 
  

 27 








 (g) Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, if any Applicable Law, treaty, regulation or directive,
or any change therein or in the interpretation or application thereof, shall make it unlawful for any Lender (for purposes of this subsection (g), the term “Lender” shall include any Lender and the office or branch where any Lender or any
corporation or bank controlling such Lender makes or maintains any Eurodollar Rate Loans) to make or maintain its Eurodollar Rate Loans, the obligation of Lenders to make Eurodollar Rate Loans hereunder shall forthwith be cancelled and Borrowers
shall, if any affected Eurodollar Rate Loans are then outstanding, promptly upon request from Agent, either pay all such affected Eurodollar Rate Loans or convert such affected Eurodollar Rate Loans into loans of another type. If any such payment or
conversion of any Eurodollar Rate Loan is made on a day that is not the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Eurodollar Rate Loan, Borrowers shall pay Agent, upon Agent’s request, such amount or amounts as may be necessary to
compensate Lenders for any loss or expense sustained or incurred by Lenders in respect of such Eurodollar Rate Loan as a result of such payment or conversion, including (but not limited to) any interest or other amounts payable by Lenders to lenders
of funds obtained by Lenders in order to make or maintain such Eurodollar Rate Loan. A certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to the foregoing sentence submitted by Lenders to Borrowing Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest
error. 
 2.3. Disbursement of Advance Proceeds. All Advances shall be disbursed from whichever office or other place Agent may
designate from time to time and, together with any and all other Obligations of Borrowers to Agent or Lenders, shall be charged to Borrowers’ Account on Agent’s books. During the Term, Borrowers may use the Revolving Advances by borrowing,
prepaying and reborrowing, all in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof. The proceeds of each Revolving Advance requested by Borrowers or deemed to have been requested by Borrowers under Section 2.2(a) hereof shall, with respect to
requested Revolving Advances to the extent Lenders make such Revolving Advances, be made available to the applicable Borrower on the day so requested by way of credit to such Borrower’s operating account at PNC, or such other bank as Borrowing
Agent may designate following notification to Agent, in immediately available federal funds or other immediately available funds or, with respect to Revolving Advances deemed to have been requested by any Borrower, be disbursed to Agent to be
applied to the outstanding Obligations giving rise to such deemed request. 
 2.4. Intentionally Omitted. 
 2.5. Maximum Advances. The aggregate balance of Revolving Advances outstanding at any time shall not exceed the lesser of (a) Maximum
Revolving Advance Amount less the Maximum Undrawn Amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit or (b) the Formula Amount. 
 2.6.
Repayment of Advances. 
 (a) The Revolving Advances shall be due and payable in full on the last day of the Term subject to earlier
prepayment as herein provided. After the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default or an Event of Default, Agent may charge Borrowers’ Account or make Revolving Advances to pay any and all sums due or payable hereunder or under any of
the Other Documents. 
  

 28 








 (b) Each Borrower recognizes that the amounts evidenced by checks, notes, drafts or any other items of
payment relating to and/or proceeds of Collateral may not be collectible by Agent on the date received. In consideration of Agent’s agreement to conditionally credit Borrowers’ Account as of the Business Day on which Agent receives those
items of payment, each Borrower agrees that, in computing the charges under this Agreement, all items of payment shall be deemed applied by Agent on account of the Obligations one (1) Business Day after the Business Day Agent receives such
payments via wire transfer or electronic depository check. Agent is not, however, required to credit Borrowers’ Account for the amount of any item of payment which is unsatisfactory to Agent and Agent may charge Borrowers’ Account for the
amount of any item of payment which is returned to Agent unpaid. 
 (c) All payments of principal, interest and other amounts payable
hereunder, or under any of the Other Documents shall be made to Agent at the Payment Office not later than 1:00 P.M. (Philadelphia time) on the due date therefor in lawful money of the United States of America in federal funds or other funds
immediately available to Agent. Agent shall have the right to effectuate payment on any and all Obligations due and owing hereunder by charging Borrowers’ Account or by making Advances as provided in Section 2.2 hereof. 
 (d) Borrowers shall pay principal, interest, and all other amounts payable hereunder, or under any related agreement, without any deduction whatsoever,
including, but not limited to, any deduction for any setoff or counterclaim. 
 2.7. Repayment of Excess Advances. The aggregate
balance of Advances outstanding at any time in excess of the maximum amount of Advances permitted hereunder shall be immediately due and payable without the necessity of any demand, at the Payment Office, whether or not a Default or Event of Default
has occurred. 
 2.8. Statement of Account. Agent shall maintain, in accordance with its customary procedures, a loan account
(“Borrowers’ Account”) in the name of Borrowers in which shall be recorded the date and amount of each Advance made by Agent and the date and amount of each payment in respect thereof; provided, however, the failure by
Agent to record the date and amount of any Advance shall not adversely affect Agent or any Lender. Each month, Agent shall send to Borrowing Agent a statement showing the accounting for the Advances made, payments made or credited in respect
thereof, and other transactions between Agent and Borrowers, during such month. The monthly statements shall be deemed correct and binding upon Borrowers in the absence of manifest error and shall constitute an account stated between Lenders and
Borrowers unless Agent receives a written statement of Borrowers’ specific exceptions thereto within thirty (30) days after such statement is received by Borrowing Agent. The records of Agent with respect to the loan account shall be
conclusive evidence absent manifest error of the amounts of Advances and other charges thereto and of payments applicable thereto. 
 2.9.
Letters of Credit. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, Agent shall (a) issue or cause the issuance of standby and/or trade Letters of Credit (“Letters of Credit”) for the 

  

 29 








 
account of any Borrower; provided, however, that Agent will not be required to issue or cause to be issued any Letters of Credit to the extent that the
issuance thereof would then cause the sum of (i) the outstanding Revolving Advances plus (ii) the Maximum Undrawn Amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit to exceed the lesser of (x) the Maximum Revolving Advance Amount or
(y) the Formula Amount. The Maximum Undrawn Amount of outstanding Letters of Credit shall not exceed in the aggregate at any time the Letter of Credit Sublimit. All disbursements or payments related to Letters of Credit shall be deemed to be
Domestic Rate Loans consisting of Revolving Advances and shall bear interest at the Revolving Interest Rate for Domestic Rate Loans; Letters of Credit that have not been drawn upon shall not bear interest. 
 2.10. Issuance of Letters of Credit. 
 (a) Borrowing Agent, on behalf of Borrowers, may request Agent to issue or cause the issuance of a Letter of Credit by delivering to Agent at the Payment Office, prior to 10:00 a.m. (Philadelphia time), at least five (5) Business
Days’ prior to the proposed date of issuance or such shorter period as may be agreed to by Agent, Agent’s form of Letter of Credit Application (the “Letter of Credit Application”) completed to the satisfaction of Agent; and, such
other certificates, documents and other papers and information as Agent may reasonably request. Borrowing Agent, on behalf of Borrowers, also has the right to give instructions and make agreements with respect to any application, any applicable
letter of credit and security agreement, any applicable letter of credit reimbursement agreement and/or any other applicable agreement, any letter of credit and the disposition of documents, disposition of any unutilized funds, and to agree with
Agent upon any amendment, extension or renewal of any Letter of Credit. 
 (b) Each Letter of Credit shall, among other things,
(i) provide for the payment of sight drafts, other written demands for payment, or acceptances of usance drafts when presented for honor thereunder in accordance with the terms thereof and when accompanied by the documents described therein and
(ii) have an expiry date not later than twelve (12) months after such Letter of Credit’s date of issuance and in no event later than the last day of the Term. Each standby Letter of Credit shall be subject either to the Uniform
Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits (1993 Revision), International Chamber of Commerce Publication No. 500, and any amendments or revision thereof adhered to by the Issuer (“UCP 500”) or the International Standby Practices
(ISP98-International Chamber of Commerce Publication Number 590) (the “ISP98 Rules”), as determined by Agent, and each trade Letter of Credit shall be subject to UCP 500. 
 (c) Agent shall use its reasonable efforts to notify Lenders of the request by Borrowing Agent for a Letter of Credit hereunder. 
 2.11. Requirements For Issuance of Letters of Credit. Borrowing Agent shall authorize and direct any Issuer to name the applicable Borrower as the
“Applicant” or “Account Party” of each Letter of Credit. If Agent is not the Issuer of any Letter of Credit, Borrowing Agent shall authorize and direct the Issuer to deliver to Agent all instruments, documents, and other writings
and property received by the Issuer pursuant to the Letter of Credit and to accept and rely upon Agent’s instructions and agreements with respect to all matters arising in connection with the Letter of Credit, the application therefor or any
acceptance therefor. 
  

 30 








 2.12. Disbursements, Reimbursement. 
 (a) Immediately upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit, each Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase
from Agent a participation in such Letter of Credit and each drawing thereunder in an amount equal to such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the Maximum Face Amount of such Letter of Credit and the amount of such drawing, respectively.

 (b) In the event of any request for a drawing under a Letter of Credit by the beneficiary or transferee thereof, Agent will promptly
notify Borrowing Agent. Provided that Borrowing Agent shall have received such notice, the Borrowers shall reimburse (such obligation to reimburse Agent shall sometimes be referred to as a “Reimbursement Obligation”) Agent prior to 12:00
Noon, Philadelphia time on each date that an amount is paid by Agent under any Letter of Credit (each such date, a “Drawing Date”) in an amount equal to the amount so paid by Agent. In the event Borrowers fail to reimburse Agent for the
full amount of any drawing under any Letter of Credit by 12:00 Noon, Philadelphia time, on the Drawing Date, Agent will promptly notify each Lender thereof, and Borrowers shall be deemed to have requested that a Domestic Rate Loan be made by the
Lenders to be disbursed on the Drawing Date under such Letter of Credit, subject to the amount of the unutilized portion of the lesser of Maximum Revolving Advance Amount or the Formula Amount and subject to Section 8.2 hereof. Any notice given
by Agent pursuant to this Section 2.12(b) may be oral if immediately confirmed in writing; provided that the lack of such an immediate confirmation shall not affect the conclusiveness or binding effect of such notice. 
 (c) Each Lender shall upon any notice pursuant to Section 2.12(b) make available to Agent an amount in immediately available funds equal to its
Commitment Percentage of the amount of the drawing, whereupon the participating Lenders shall (subject to Section 2.12(d)) each be deemed to have made a Domestic Rate Loan to Borrowers in that amount. If any Lender so notified fails to make
available to Agent the amount of such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of such amount by no later than 2:00 p.m., Philadelphia time on the Drawing Date, then interest shall accrue on such Lender’s obligation to make such payment, from the
Drawing Date to the date on which such Lender makes such payment (i) at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate during the first three days following the Drawing Date and (ii) at a rate per annum equal to the rate applicable to
Domestic Rate Loans on and after the fourth day following the Drawing Date. Agent will promptly give notice of the occurrence of the Drawing Date, but failure of Agent to give any such notice on the Drawing Date or in sufficient time to enable any
Lender to effect such payment on such date shall not relieve such Lender from its obligation under this Section 2.12(c), provided that such Lender shall not be obligated to pay interest as provided in Section 2.12(c) (i) and
(ii) until and commencing from the date of receipt of notice from Agent of a drawing. 
 (d) With respect to any unreimbursed drawing
that is not converted into a Domestic Rate Loan to Borrowers in whole or in part as contemplated by Section 2.12(b), because of Borrowers’ failure to satisfy the conditions set forth in Section 8.2 (other than any notice requirements)
or for any other reason, Borrowers shall be deemed to have incurred from 

  

 31 








 
Agent a borrowing (each a “Letter of Credit Borrowing”) in the amount of such drawing. Such Letter of Credit Borrowing shall be due and payable on
demand (together with interest) and shall bear interest at the rate per annum applicable to a Domestic Rate Loan. Each Lender’s payment to Agent pursuant to Section 2.12(c) shall be deemed to be a payment in respect of its participation in
such Letter of Credit Borrowing and shall constitute a “Participation Advance” from such Lender in satisfaction of its Participation Commitment under this Section 2.12. 
 (e) Each Lender’s Participation Commitment shall continue until the last to occur of any of the following events: (x) Agent ceases to be
obligated to issue or cause to be issued Letters of Credit hereunder; (y) no Letter of Credit issued or created hereunder remains outstanding and uncancelled and (z) all Persons (other than the Borrowers) have been fully reimbursed for all
payments made under or relating to Letters of Credit. 
 2.13. Repayment of Participation Advances. 
 (a) Upon (and only upon) receipt by Agent for its account of immediately available funds from Borrowers (i) in reimbursement of any payment made by
the Agent under the Letter of Credit with respect to which any Lender has made a Participation Advance to Agent, or (ii) in payment of interest on such a payment made by Agent under such a Letter of Credit, Agent will pay to each Lender, in the
same funds as those received by Agent, the amount of such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of such funds, except Agent shall retain the amount of the Commitment Percentage of such funds of any Lender that did not make a Participation Advance in
respect of such payment by Agent. 
 (b) If Agent is required at any time to return to any Borrower, or to a trustee, receiver, liquidator,
custodian, or any official in any insolvency proceeding, any portion of the payments made by Borrowers to Agent pursuant to Section 2.13(a) in reimbursement of a payment made under the Letter of Credit or interest or fee thereon, each Lender
shall, on demand of Agent, forthwith return to Agent the amount of its Commitment Percentage of any amounts so returned by Agent plus interest at the Federal Funds Effective Rate. 
 2.14. Documentation. Each Borrower agrees to be bound by the terms of the Letter of Credit Application and, absent gross negligence or willful
misconduct, by Agent’s interpretations of any Letter of Credit issued on behalf of such Borrower and by Agent’s written regulations and customary practices relating to letters of credit, though Agent’s interpretations may be different
from such Borrower’s own. In the event of a conflict between the Letter of Credit Application and this Agreement, this Agreement shall govern. It is understood and agreed that, except in the case of gross negligence or willful misconduct (as
determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable judgment), Agent shall not be liable for any error, negligence and/or mistakes, whether of omission or commission, in following the Borrowing Agent’s or any
Borrower’s instructions or those contained in the Letters of Credit or any modifications, amendments or supplements thereto. 
 2.15.
Determination to Honor Drawing Request. In determining whether to honor any request for drawing under any Letter of Credit by the beneficiary thereof, Agent shall be responsible only to determine that the documents and certificates required
to be delivered under such Letter of Credit have been delivered and that they comply on their face with the requirements of such Letter of Credit and that any other drawing condition appearing on the face of such Letter of Credit has been satisfied
in the manner so set forth. 
  

 32 








 2.16. Nature of Participation and Reimbursement Obligations. Each Lender’s obligation in
accordance with this Agreement to make the Revolving Advances or Participation Advances as a result of a drawing under a Letter of Credit, and the obligations of Borrowers to reimburse Agent upon a draw under a Letter of Credit, shall be absolute,
unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Section 2.16 under all circumstances, including, without limitation, the following circumstances: 
 (i) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender may have against Agent, any Borrower or any other
Person for any reason whatsoever; 
 (ii) the failure of any Borrower or any other Person to comply, in connection with a
Letter of Credit Borrowing, with the conditions set forth in this Agreement for the making of a Revolving Advance, it being acknowledged that such conditions are not required for the making of a Letter of Credit Borrowing and the obligation of the
Lenders to make Participation Advances under Section 2.12; 
 (iii) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter
of Credit; 
 (iv) any claim of breach of warranty that might be made by any Borrower or any Lender against the beneficiary of
a Letter of Credit, or the existence of any claim, set-off, recoupment, counterclaim, crossclaim, defense or other right which any Borrower or any Lender may have at any time against a beneficiary, any successor beneficiary or any transferee of any
Letter of Credit or the proceeds thereof (or any Persons for whom any such transferee may be acting), Agent or any Lender or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated herein or any unrelated
transaction (including any underlying transaction between any Borrower or any Subsidiaries of such Borrower and the beneficiary for which any Letter of Credit was procured); 
 (v) the lack of power or authority of any signer of (or any defect in or forgery of any signature or endorsement on) or the form of or
lack of validity, sufficiency, accuracy, enforceability or genuineness of any draft, demand, instrument, certificate or other document presented under or in connection with any Letter of Credit, or any fraud or alleged fraud in connection with any
Letter of Credit, or the transport of any property or provisions of services relating to a Letter of Credit, in each case even if Agent or any of Agent’s Affiliates has been notified thereof; 
 (vi) payment by Agent under any Letter of Credit against presentation of a demand, draft or certificate or other document which does not
comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; 
  

 33 








 (vii) the solvency of, or any acts or omissions by, any beneficiary of any Letter of
Credit, or any other Person having a role in any transaction or obligation relating to a Letter of Credit, or the existence, nature, quality, quantity, condition, value or other characteristic of any property or services relating to a Letter of
Credit; 
 (viii) any failure by the Agent or any of Agent’s Affiliates to issue any Letter of Credit in the form
requested by Borrowing Agent, unless the Agent has received written notice from Borrowing Agent of such failure within three (3) Business Days after the Agent shall have furnished Borrowing Agent a copy of such Letter of Credit and such error
is material and no drawing has been made thereon prior to receipt of such notice; 
 (ix) any Material Adverse Effect on any
Borrower or any Guarantor; 
 (x) any breach of this Agreement or any Other Document by any party thereto; 
 (xi) the occurrence or continuance of an insolvency proceeding with respect to any Borrower or any Guarantor; 
 (xii) the fact that a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing; 
 (xiii) the fact that the Term shall have expired or this Agreement or the Obligations hereunder shall have been terminated; and

 (xiv) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing. 
 2.17. Indemnity. In addition to amounts payable as provided in Section 16.5, each Borrower hereby agrees to protect, indemnify, pay and save
harmless Agent and any of Agent’s Affiliates that have issued a Letter of Credit from and against any and all claims, demands, liabilities, damages, taxes, penalties, interest, judgments, losses, costs, charges and expenses (including
reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of counsel and allocated costs of internal counsel) which the Agent or any of Agent’s Affiliates may incur or be subject to as a consequence, direct or indirect, of the issuance of any Letter of
Credit, other than as a result of (A) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Agent as determined by a final and non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction or (b) the wrongful dishonor by the Agent or any of
Agent’s Affiliates of a proper demand for payment made under any Letter of Credit, except if such dishonor resulted from any act or omission, whether rightful or wrongful, of any present or future de jure or de facto Governmental Body (all such
acts or omissions herein called “Governmental Acts”). 
 2.18. Liability for Acts and Omissions. As between Borrowers and
Agent and Lenders, each Borrower assumes all risks of the acts and omissions of, or misuse of the Letters of Credit by, the respective beneficiaries of such Letters of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of 

  

 34 








 
the respective foregoing, Agent shall not be responsible for: (i) the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any document
submitted by any party in connection with the application for an issuance of any such Letter of Credit, even if it should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged (even if Agent shall have
been notified thereof); (ii) the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign any such Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part,
which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason; (iii) the failure of the beneficiary of any such Letter of Credit, or any other party to which such Letter of Credit may be transferred, to comply fully with any conditions required
in order to draw upon such Letter of Credit or any other claim of any Borrower against any beneficiary of such Letter of Credit, or any such transferee, or any dispute between or among any Borrower and any beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or any
such transferee; (iv) errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, cable, telegraph, telex or otherwise, whether or not they be in cipher; (v) errors in interpretation of technical terms;
(vi) any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under any such Letter of Credit or of the proceeds thereof; (vii) the misapplication by the beneficiary of any such Letter of
Credit of the proceeds of any drawing under such Letter of Credit; or (viii) any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of Agent, including any governmental acts, and none of the above shall affect or impair, or prevent the vesting
of, any of Agent’s rights or powers hereunder. Nothing in the preceding sentence shall relieve Agent from liability for Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final
non-appealable judgment) in connection with actions or omissions described in such clauses (i) through (viii) of such sentence. In no event shall Agent or Agent’s Affiliates be liable to any Borrower for any indirect, consequential,
incidental, punitive, exemplary or special damages or expenses (including without limitation attorneys’ fees), or for any damages resulting from any change in the value of any property relating to a Letter of Credit. 
 Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Agent and each of its Affiliates (i) may rely on any oral or other communication believed in good
faith by Agent or such Affiliate to have been authorized or given by or on behalf of the applicant for a Letter of Credit, (ii) may honor any presentation if the documents presented appear on their face substantially to comply with the terms
and conditions of the relevant Letter of Credit; (iii) may honor a previously dishonored presentation under a Letter of Credit, whether such dishonor was pursuant to a court order, to settle or compromise any claim of wrongful dishonor, or
otherwise, and shall be entitled to reimbursement to the same extent as if such presentation had initially been honored, together with any interest paid by Agent or its Affiliates; (iv) may honor any drawing that is payable upon presentation of
a statement advising negotiation or payment, upon receipt of such statement (even if such statement indicates that a draft or other document is being delivered separately), and shall not be liable for any failure of any such draft or other document
to arrive, or to conform in any way with the relevant Letter of Credit; (v) may pay any paying or negotiating bank claiming that it rightfully honored under the laws or practices of the place where such bank is located; and (vi) may settle
or adjust any claim or demand made on Agent or its Affiliate in any way related to any order issued at the applicant’s request to an air carrier, a letter of guarantee or of indemnity issued to a carrier or any similar document (each an
“Order”) and honor any drawing in connection with any Letter of Credit that is the subject of such Order, notwithstanding that any drafts or other documents presented in connection with such Letter of Credit fail to conform in any way with
such Letter of Credit. 
  

 35 








 In furtherance and extension and not in limitation of the specific provisions set forth above, any action
taken or omitted by Agent under or in connection with the Letters of Credit issued by it or any documents and certificates delivered thereunder, if taken or omitted in good faith and without gross negligence (as determined by a court of competent
jurisdiction in a final non-appealable judgment), shall not put Agent under any resulting liability to any Borrower or any Lender. 
 2.19.
Additional Payments. Any sums expended by Agent or any Lender due to any Borrower’s failure to perform or comply with its obligations under this Agreement or any Other Document including, without limitation, any Borrower’s
obligations under Sections 4.2, 4.4, 4.12, 4.13, 4.14 and 6.1 hereof, may be charged to Borrowers’ Account as a Revolving Advance and added to the Obligations. 
 2.20. Manner of Borrowing and Payment. 
 (a) Each borrowing of Revolving Advances shall be advanced
according to the applicable Commitment Percentages of Lenders. 
 (b) Each payment (including each prepayment) by Borrowers on account of the
principal of and interest on the Revolving Advances, shall be applied to the Revolving Advances pro rata according to the applicable Commitment Percentages of Lenders. Except as expressly provided herein, all payments (including prepayments) to be
made by any Borrower on account of principal, interest and fees shall be made without set off or counterclaim and shall be made to Agent on behalf of the Lenders to the Payment Office, in each case on or prior to 1:00 P.M., Philadelphia time, in
Dollars and in immediately available funds. 
 (i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Sections 2.20(a) and
(b) hereof, commencing with the first Business Day following the Closing Date, each borrowing of Revolving Advances shall be advanced by Agent and each payment by any Borrower on account of Revolving Advances shall be applied first to those
Revolving Advances advanced by Agent. On or before 1:00 P.M., Philadelphia time, on each Settlement Date commencing with the first Settlement Date following the Closing Date, Agent and Lenders shall make certain payments as follows: (I) if the
aggregate amount of new Revolving Advances made by Agent during the preceding Week (if any) exceeds the aggregate amount of repayments applied to outstanding Revolving Advances during such preceding Week, then each Lender shall provide Agent with
funds in an amount equal to its applicable Commitment Percentage of the difference between (w) such Revolving Advances and (x) such repayments and (II) if the aggregate amount of repayments applied to outstanding Revolving Advances during
such Week exceeds the aggregate amount of new Revolving Advances made during such Week, then Agent shall provide each Lender with funds in an amount equal to its applicable Commitment Percentage of the difference between (y) such repayments and
(z) such Revolving Advances. 
  

 36 








 (ii) Each Lender shall be entitled to earn interest at the Revolving Interest Rate on
outstanding Advances which it has funded. 
 (iii) Promptly following each Settlement Date, Agent shall submit to each Lender
a certificate with respect to payments received and Advances made during the Week immediately preceding such Settlement Date. Such certificate of Agent shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. 
 (c) If any Lender or Participant (a “Benefited Lender”) shall at any time receive any payment of all or part of its Advances, or interest
thereon, or receive any Collateral in respect thereof (whether voluntarily or involuntarily or by set-off) in a greater proportion than any such payment to and Collateral received by any other Lender, if any, in respect of such other Lender’s
Advances, or interest thereon, and such greater proportionate payment or receipt of Collateral is not expressly permitted hereunder, such Benefited Lender shall purchase for cash from the other Lenders a participation in such portion of each such
other Lender’s Advances, or shall provide such other Lender with the benefits of any such Collateral, or the proceeds thereof, as shall be necessary to cause such Benefited Lender to share the excess payment or benefits of such Collateral or
proceeds ratably with each of the other Lenders; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment or benefits is thereafter recovered from such Benefited Lender, such purchase shall be rescinded, and the purchase
price and benefits returned, to the extent of such recovery, but without interest. Each Lender so purchasing a portion of another Lender’s Advances may exercise all rights of payment (including, without limitation, rights of set-off) with
respect to such portion as fully as if such Lender were the direct holder of such portion. 
 (d) Unless Agent shall have been notified by
telephone, confirmed in writing, by any Lender that such Lender will not make the amount which would constitute its applicable Commitment Percentage of the Advances available to Agent, Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) assume that such
Lender shall make such amount available to Agent on the next Settlement Date and, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to Borrowers a corresponding amount. Agent will promptly notify Borrowers of its receipt of any such notice from a
Lender. If such amount is made available to Agent on a date after such next Settlement Date, such Lender shall pay to Agent on demand an amount equal to the product of (i) the daily average Federal Funds Open Rate (computed on the basis of a
year of 360 days) during such period as quoted by Agent, times (ii) such amount, times (iii) the number of days from and including such Settlement Date to the date on which such amount becomes immediately available to Agent. A certificate
of Agent submitted to any Lender with respect to any amounts owing under this paragraph (e) shall be conclusive, in the absence of manifest error. If such amount is not in fact made available to Agent by such Lender within three
(3) Business Days after such Settlement Date, Agent shall be entitled to recover such an amount, with interest thereon at the rate per annum then applicable to such Revolving Advances hereunder, on demand from Borrowers; provided,
however, that Agent’s right to such recovery shall not prejudice or otherwise adversely affect Borrowers’ rights (if any) against such Lender. 
 2.21. Mandatory Prepayments. When any Borrower sells or otherwise disposes of any Collateral other than Inventory in the Ordinary Course of Business, Borrowers shall repay the Advances in an amount equal to the
net proceeds of such sale (i.e., gross proceeds less the 

  

 37 








 
reasonable costs of such sales or other dispositions), such repayments to be made promptly but in no event more than one (1) Business Day following
receipt of such net proceeds, and until the date of payment, such proceeds shall be held in trust for Agent. The foregoing shall not be deemed to be implied consent to any such sale otherwise prohibited by the terms and conditions hereof. Such
repayments shall be applied to the Revolving Advances in such order as Agent may determine, subject to Borrowers’ ability to reborrow Revolving Advances in accordance with the terms hereof. 
 2.22. Use of Proceeds. 
 (a) Borrowers
shall apply the proceeds of Advances to (i) repay existing indebtedness owed to Silicon Valley Bank, (ii) pay fees and expenses relating to this transaction, and (iii) to provide for their working capital needs, general corporate
purposes and reimburse drawings under Letters of Credit. 
 (b) Without limiting the generality of Section 2.22(a) above, neither the
Borrowers nor any other Person which may in the future become party to this Agreement or the Other Documents as a Borrower, intends to use nor shall they use any portion of the proceeds of the Advances, directly or indirectly, for any purpose in
violation of the Trading with the Enemy Act. 
 2.23. Defaulting Lender. 
 (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the event any Lender (x) has refused (which refusal constitutes a breach by such
Lender of its obligations under this Agreement) to make available its portion of any Advance or (y) notifies either Agent or Borrowing Agent that it does not intend to make available its portion of any Advance (if the actual refusal would
constitute a breach by such Lender of its obligations under this Agreement) (each, a “Lender Default”), all rights and obligations hereunder of such Lender (a “Defaulting Lender”) as to which a Lender Default is in effect and of
the other parties hereto shall be modified to the extent of the express provisions of this Section 2.23 while such Lender Default remains in effect. 
 (b) Advances shall be made pro rata by Lenders (the “Non-Defaulting Lenders”) which are not Defaulting Lenders based on their respective Commitment Percentages, and no Commitment Percentage of any Lender or
any pro rata share of any Advances required to be advanced by any Lender shall be increased as a result of such Lender Default. Amounts received in respect of principal of any type of Advances shall be applied to reduce the applicable Advances of
each Lender (other than any Defaulting Lender) pro rata based on the aggregate of the outstanding Advances of that type of all Lenders at the time of such application; provided, that, Agent shall not be obligated to transfer to a Defaulting
Lender any payments received by Agent for the Defaulting Lender’s benefit, nor shall a Defaulting Lender be entitled to the sharing of any payments hereunder (including any principal, interest or fees). Amounts payable to a Defaulting Lender
shall instead be paid to or retained by Agent. Agent may hold and, in its discretion, re-lend to a Borrower the amount of such payments received or retained by it for the account of such Defaulting Lender. 
  

 38 








 (c) A Defaulting Lender shall not be entitled to give instructions to Agent or to approve, disapprove,
consent to or vote on any matters relating to this Agreement and the Other Documents. All amendments, waivers and other modifications of this Agreement and the Other Documents may be made without regard to a Defaulting Lender and, for purposes of
the definition of “Required Lenders”, a Defaulting Lender shall be deemed not to be a Lender and not to have Advances outstanding. 
 (d) Other than as expressly set forth in this Section 2.23, the rights and obligations of a Defaulting Lender (including the obligation to indemnify Agent) and the other parties hereto shall remain unchanged. Nothing in this
Section 2.23 shall be deemed to release any Defaulting Lender from its obligations under this Agreement and the Other Documents, shall alter such obligations, shall operate as a waiver of any default by such Defaulting Lender hereunder, or
shall prejudice any rights which any Borrower, Agent or any Lender may have against any Defaulting Lender as a result of any default by such Defaulting Lender hereunder. 
 (e) In the event a Defaulting Lender retroactively cures to the satisfaction of Agent the breach which caused a Lender to become a Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender shall no longer be a Defaulting Lender and
shall be treated as a Lender under this Agreement. 
  

	III.	INTEREST AND FEES. 

 3.1. Interest. Interest
on Advances shall be payable in arrears on the first day of each month, commencing on the first day of the month after the Closing Date, with respect to Domestic Rate Loans and, with respect to Eurodollar Rate Loans, at the end of each Interest
Period or, for Eurodollar Rate Loans with an Interest Period in excess of three months, at the earlier of (a) each three months on the anniversary date of the commencement of such Eurodollar Rate Loan or (b) the end of the Interest Period.
Interest charges shall be computed on the actual principal amount of Advances outstanding during the month (the “Monthly Advances”) at a rate per annum equal to with respect to Revolving Advances, the applicable Revolving Interest Rate.
Whenever, subsequent to the date of this Agreement, the Alternate Base Rate is increased or decreased, the Revolving Interest Rate for Domestic Rate Loans shall be similarly changed without notice or demand of any kind by an amount equal to the
amount of such change in the Alternate Base Rate during the time such change or changes remain in effect. The Eurodollar Rate shall be adjusted with respect to Eurodollar Rate Loans without notice or demand of any kind on the effective date of any
change in the Reserve Percentage as of such effective date. Upon and after the occurrence of an Event of Default, and during the continuation thereof, the Obligations shall bear interest at the Revolving Interest Rate plus two percent
(2%) per annum the “Default Rate”). 
 3.2. Letter of Credit Fees. 
 (a) Borrowers shall pay (x) to Agent, for the benefit of Lenders, fees for each Letter of Credit for the period from and excluding the date of
issuance of same to and including the date of expiration or termination, equal to the average daily face amount of each outstanding Letter of Credit multiplied by the Applicable Margin being charged for Eurodollar Rate Loans per annum, such fees to
be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual number of days elapsed and to be payable monthly in arrears on the first day of each month and on the last 

  

 39 








 
day of the Term and (y) to the Issuer, any and all fees and reasonable expenses as agreed upon by the Issuer and the Borrowing Agent in connection with
any Letter of Credit, including, without limitation, in connection with the opening, amendment or renewal of any such Letter of Credit and any acceptances created thereunder and shall reimburse Agent for any and all fees and reasonable expenses, if
any, paid by Agent to the Issuer (all of the foregoing fees, the “Letter of Credit Fees”). All such charges shall be deemed earned in full on the date when the same are due and payable hereunder and shall not be subject to rebate or
proration upon the termination of this Agreement for any reason. Any such charge in effect at the time of a particular transaction shall be the charge for that transaction, notwithstanding any subsequent change in the Issuer’s prevailing
charges for that type of transaction. All Letter of Credit Fees payable hereunder shall be deemed earned in full on the date when the same are due and payable hereunder and shall not be subject to rebate or proration upon the termination of this
Agreement for any reason. 
 On demand, Borrowers will cause cash to be deposited and maintained in an account with Agent, as cash
collateral, in an amount equal to one hundred and five percent (105%) of the Maximum Undrawn Amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit, and each Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes Agent, in its discretion, on such Borrower’s behalf
and in such Borrower’s name, to open such an account and to make and maintain deposits therein, or in an account opened by such Borrower, in the amounts required to be made by such Borrower, out of the proceeds of Receivables or other
Collateral or out of any other funds of such Borrower coming into any Lender’s possession at any time. Agent will invest such cash collateral (less applicable reserves) in such short-term money-market items as to which Agent and such
Borrower mutually agree and the net return on such investments shall be credited to such account and constitute additional cash collateral. No Borrower may withdraw amounts credited to any such account except upon payment and performance in full of
all Obligations and termination of this Agreement. 
 3.3. (a) Closing Fee. Upon the execution of this Agreement, Borrowers shall pay
to Agent for the ratable benefit of Lenders a closing fee of $75,000. 
 (b) Facility Fee. If, for any quarter during the Term, the
average daily unpaid balance of the Revolving Advances for each day of such quarter does not equal the Maximum Revolving Advance Amount, then Borrowers shall pay to Agent for the ratable benefit of Lenders a fee at a rate equal to one-half of one
percent (.50%) per annum on the amount by which the Maximum Revolving Advance Amount exceeds such average daily unpaid balance. Such fee shall be payable to Agent in arrears on the last day of each quarter with respect to the previous quarter.

 3.4. (a) Collateral Monitoring Fee. Borrowers shall pay Agent a collateral monitoring fee equal to $1,500 per month commencing on
the first day of the month following the Closing Date and on the first day of each month thereafter during the Term. The collateral monitoring fee shall be deemed earned in full on the date when same is due and payable hereunder and shall not be
subject to rebate or proration upon termination of this Agreement for any reason. 
 (b) Collateral Evaluation Fee. Borrowers shall
pay to Agent on the first day of each month following any month in which Agent performs any collateral evaluation - namely 

  

 40 








 
any field examination, collateral analysis, audit or other business analysis, the need for which is to be determined by Agent and which evaluation is
undertaken by Agent or for Agent’s benefit—a collateral evaluation fee in an amount equal to $750 per day for each person employed to perform such evaluation, plus all costs and disbursements incurred by Agent in the performance of
such examination or analysis. 
 (c) Fee Letter. Borrowers shall pay the amounts required to be paid in the Fee Letter in the manner
and at the times required by the Fee Letter 
 3.5. Post Closing Appraisals. Agent may, in its sole discretion, exercised in a
commercially reasonable manner, at any time after the Closing Date but in no event more often than once a fiscal quarter, engage the services of an independent appraisal firm or firms of reputable standing, satisfactory to Agent, for the purpose of
appraising the then current orderly liquidation value of Borrowers’ Inventory. All of the fees and out-of-pocket costs and expenses of any such firm (collectively, “appraisal amounts”) shall be paid for when due, in full and without
off-set, by Borrowers. In the event that the orderly liquidation value of Borrowers’ Inventory, as so determined pursuant to such appraisal, is less than anticipated by Agent and Lenders, such that the loan-to-collateral ratio employed by
Lenders with respect to Revolving Advances made against Eligible Inventory is in fact materially greater than Lenders had believed, then, promptly upon Agent’s demand for same, Borrowers shall make mandatory prepayments of the then outstanding
Revolving Advances made against Eligible Inventory so as to restore such ratio to a ratio acceptable to Lenders, in their sole credit judgment, exercised in a commercially reasonable manner. 
 3.6. Computation of Interest and Fees. Interest and fees hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and for the actual number
of days elapsed. If any payment to be made hereunder becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, the due date thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and interest thereon shall be payable at the Revolving
Interest Rate for Domestic Rate Loans during such extension. 
 3.7. Maximum Charges. In no event whatsoever shall interest and other
charges charged hereunder exceed the highest rate permissible under law. In the event interest and other charges as computed hereunder would otherwise exceed the highest rate permitted under law, such excess amount shall be first applied to any
unpaid principal balance owed by Borrowers, and if the then remaining excess amount is greater than the previously unpaid principal balance, Lenders shall promptly refund such excess amount to Borrowers and the provisions hereof shall be deemed
amended to provide for such permissible rate. 
 3.8. Increased Costs. In the event that after the Closing Date, (i) the adoption
of any Applicable Law, (ii) any change to or interpretation or application of any Applicable Law in effect on the Closing Date, or (iii) compliance by any Lender (for purposes of this Section 3.8, the term “Lender” shall
include Agent or any Lender and any corporation or bank controlling Agent or any Lender) and the office or branch where Agent or any Lender (as so defined) makes or maintains any Eurodollar Rate Loans with any request or directive (whether or not
having the force of law) from any central bank or other financial, monetary or other authority, shall: 
  

 41 








 (a) subject Agent or any Lender to any tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement or any
Other Document or change the basis of taxation of payments to Agent or any Lender of principal, fees, interest or any other amount payable hereunder or under any Other Documents, except for generally applicable taxes on gross revenues or gross
receipts, or income or franchise taxes imposed on or measured by the net income of a Lender or the Agent, in each case by the United States of America, by the jurisdiction under the laws of which such Lender or Agent is incorporated or organized, by
the jurisdiction in which such Lender’s or Agent’s principal office is located, or any other jurisdiction where such Lender or Agent is doing business, other than solely as a result of the making of the Advances (collectively
“Excluded Taxes”); 
 (b) impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special deposit, assessment or similar requirement against
assets held by, or deposits in or for the account of, advances or loans by, or other credit extended by, any office of Agent or any Lender, including (without limitation) pursuant to Regulation D of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve
System; or 
 (c) impose on Agent or any Lender or the London interbank Eurodollar market any other condition with respect to this Agreement
or any Other Document; 
 and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to Agent or any Lender of making, renewing or maintaining its
Advances hereunder by an amount that Agent or such Lender deems to be material or to reduce the amount of any payment (whether of principal, interest or otherwise) in respect of any of the Advances by an amount that Agent or such Lender deems to be
material, then, in any case Borrowers shall promptly pay Agent or such Lender, upon its demand, such additional amount as will compensate Agent or such Lender for such additional cost or such reduction, as the case may be. Agent or such Lender shall
certify the amount of such additional cost or reduced amount to Borrowers, and such certification shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 
 3.9. Basis For Determining Interest Rate Inadequate or Unfair. In the event that Agent or any Lender shall have determined that: 
 (a) reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Eurodollar Rate for any Interest Period; or 
 (b) Dollar deposits in the
relevant amount and for the relevant maturity are not available in the London interbank Eurodollar market, with respect to an outstanding Eurodollar Rate Loan, a proposed Eurodollar Rate Loan, or a proposed conversion of a Domestic Rate Loan into a
Eurodollar Rate Loan; 
 then Agent shall give Borrowing Agent prompt written notice of such determination. If such notice is given, (i) any such
requested Eurodollar Rate Loan shall be made as a Domestic Rate Loan, unless Borrowing Agent shall notify Agent no later than 10:00 a.m. (Philadelphia time) two (2) Business Days prior to the date of such proposed borrowing, that its request
for such borrowing shall be cancelled or made as an unaffected type of Eurodollar Rate Loan, (ii) any Domestic Rate Loan or Eurodollar Rate Loan which was to have been converted to an affected 

  

 42 








 
type of Eurodollar Rate Loan shall be continued as or converted into a Domestic Rate Loan, or, if Borrowing Agent shall notify Agent, no later than 10:00
a.m. (Philadelphia time) two (2) Business Days prior to the proposed conversion, shall be maintained as an unaffected type of Eurodollar Rate Loan, and (iii) any outstanding affected Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be converted into a Domestic
Rate Loan, or, if Borrowing Agent shall notify Agent, no later than 10:00 a.m. (Philadelphia time) two (2) Business Days prior to the last Business Day of the then current Interest Period applicable to such affected Eurodollar Rate Loan, shall
be converted into an unaffected type of Eurodollar Rate Loan, on the last Business Day of the then current Interest Period for such affected Eurodollar Rate Loans. Until such notice has been withdrawn, Lenders shall have no obligation to make an
affected type of Eurodollar Rate Loan or maintain outstanding affected Eurodollar Rate Loans and no Borrower shall have the right to convert a Domestic Rate Loan or an unaffected type of Eurodollar Rate Loan into an affected type of Eurodollar Rate
Loan. 
 3.10. Capital Adequacy. 
 (a) In the event that Agent or any Lender shall have determined that any Applicable Law, rule, regulation or guideline regarding capital adequacy, or any change therein, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any
Governmental Body, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by Agent or any Lender (for purposes of this Section 3.10, the term “Lender” shall include Agent or any
Lender and any corporation or bank controlling Agent or any Lender) and the office or branch where Agent or any Lender (as so defined) makes or maintains any Eurodollar Rate Loans with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or
not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on Agent or any Lender’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder to a level below
that which Agent or such Lender could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration Agent’s and each Lender’s policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by Agent or any Lender to
be material, then, from time to time, Borrowers shall pay upon demand to Agent or such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate Agent or such Lender for such reduction. In determining such amount or amounts, Agent or such Lender
may use any reasonable averaging or attribution methods in a manner consistent with the manner in which it applies similar provisions and calculates similar amounts payable to it by other similarly situated Borrowers. The protection of this
Section 3.10 shall be available to Agent and each Lender regardless of any possible contention of invalidity or inapplicability with respect to the Applicable Law, regulation or condition. 
 (b) A certificate of Agent or such Lender setting forth such amount or amounts as shall be necessary to compensate Agent or such Lender with respect to
Section 3.10(a) hereof when delivered to Borrowers shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 
 3.11. Gross Up for Taxes. If
Borrowers shall be required by Applicable Law to withhold or deduct any taxes (other than Excluded Taxes, as defined in Section 3.8(a)) from or in respect of any sum payable under this Agreement or any of the Other Documents to the Agent, or
any Lender, assignee of any Lender, or Participant (each, individually, a “Payee” and collectively, the “Payees”), (a) the sum payable to such Payee or Payees, as the case may be, 

  

 43 








 
shall be increased as may be necessary so that, after making all required withholding or deductions, the applicable Payee or Payees receives an amount equal
to the sum it would have received had no such withholding or deductions been made (the “Gross-Up Payment”), (b) Borrowers shall make such withholding or deductions, and (c) Borrowers shall pay the full amount withheld or deducted
to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with Applicable Law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrowers shall not be obligated to make any portion of the Gross-Up Payment that is attributable to any withholding or
deductions that would not have been paid or claimed had the applicable Payee or Payees properly claimed a complete exemption with respect thereto pursuant to Section 3.12 hereof, or that would not have been paid or claimed but for the failure
of the Payee to timely comply with the provisions contained in Section 3.12. 
 3.12. Withholding Tax Exemption. (a) Each
Payee that is not incorporated under the Laws of the United States of America or a state thereof (and, upon the written request of Agent, each other Payee) agrees that it will deliver to Borrowing Agent and Agent two (2) duly completed
appropriate valid Withholding Certificates (as defined under §1.1441-1(c)(16) of the Income Tax Regulations (“Regulations”)) certifying its status (i.e., U.S. or foreign person) and, if appropriate, making a claim of reduced, or
exemption from, U.S. withholding tax on the basis of an income tax treaty or an exemption provided by the Code. The term “Withholding Certificate” means a Form W-9; a Form W-8BEN; a Form W-8ECI; a Form W-8IMY and the related statements and
certifications as required under §1.1441-1(e)(2) and/or (3) of the Regulations; a statement described in §1.871-14(c)(2)(v) of the Regulations; or any other certificates under the Code or Regulations that certify or establish the
status of a payee or beneficial owner as a U.S. or foreign person. 
 (b) Each Payee required to deliver to Borrowing Agent and Agent a valid
Withholding Certificate pursuant to Section 3.12(a) hereof shall deliver such valid Withholding Certificate as follows: (A) each Payee which is a party hereto on the Closing Date shall deliver such valid Withholding Certificate at least
five (5) Business Days prior to the first date on which any interest or fees are payable by any Borrower hereunder for the account of such Payee; (B) each Payee shall deliver such valid Withholding Certificate at least five
(5) Business Days before the effective date of such assignment or participation (unless Agent in its sole discretion shall permit such Payee to deliver such Withholding Certificate less than five (5) Business Days before such date in which
case it shall be due on the date specified by Agent). Each Payee which so delivers a valid Withholding Certificate further undertakes to deliver to Borrowing Agent s and Agent two (2) additional copies of such Withholding Certificate (or a
successor form) on or before the date that such Withholding Certificate expires or becomes obsolete or after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent Withholding Certificate so delivered by it, and such amendments thereto or
extensions or renewals thereof as may be reasonably requested by Borrowing Agent or Agent. 
 (c) Notwithstanding the submission of a
Withholding Certificate claiming a reduced rate of or exemption from U.S. withholding tax required under Section 3.12(b) hereof, Agent shall be entitled to withhold United States federal income taxes at the full 30% withholding rate if it
reasonably believes it is required to do so under the due diligence requirements imposed upon a withholding agent under §1.1441-7(b) of the Regulations. Further, Agent is indemnified under §1.1461-1(e) of the Regulations against any claims
and demands of any Payee for the amount of any tax it deducts and withholds in accordance with regulations under §1441 of the Code. 
  

 44 









	IV.	COLLATERAL: GENERAL TERMS. 

 4.1. Security
Interest in the Collateral. To secure the prompt payment and performance to Agent and each Lender of the Obligations, each Borrower hereby assigns, pledges and grants to Agent for its benefit and for the ratable benefit of each Lender a
continuing security interest in and to and a Lien on all of its Collateral, whether now owned or existing or hereafter acquired or arising and wheresoever located. Each Borrower shall mark its books and records as may be necessary or appropriate to
evidence, protect and perfect Agent’s security interest and shall cause its financial statements to reflect such security interest. Each Borrower shall promptly provide Agent with written notice of all commercial tort claims, such notice to

claims and all proceeds thereof. 
 4.2. Perfection of Security Interest. Each Borrower shall take all action that may be necessary or
desirable, or that Agent may request, so as at all times to maintain the validity, perfection, enforceability and priority of Agent’s security interest in and Lien on the Collateral or to enable Agent to protect, exercise or enforce its rights

 4.3. Disposition of Collateral. Each Borrower will safeguard and protect all Collateral for Agent’s general account and make no disposition
thereof whether by sale, lease or otherwise except the sale of Inventory in the Ordinary Course of Business. 
 4.4. Preservation of
Collateral. In addition to the rights and remedies set forth in Section 11.1 hereof, Agent: (a) may at any time take such steps as Agent deems reasonably necessary to protect Agent’s interest in and to preserve the Collateral,

Collateral as Agent may reasonably direct. All of Agent’s expenses of preserving the Collateral, including any expenses relating to the bonding of a custodian, shall be charged to Borrowers’ Account as a Revolving Advance and added to the
Obligations. 
 4.5. Ownership of Collateral. 
 (a) With respect to the Collateral, at the time the Collateral becomes subject to Agent’s security interest: (a) each Borrower shall be the sole owner of and fully authorized and able to sell, transfer,

4.5; (ii) Schedule 4.5 hereto contains a correct and complete list, as of the Closing Date, of the legal names and addresses of each warehouse at which Inventory of Borrower is stored; none of the receipts received by any Borrower
from any warehouse states that the goods covered thereby are to be delivered to bearer or to the order of a named Person or to a named Person and such named Person’s assigns; (iii) Schedule 4.5 hereto sets forth a correct and
complete list as of the Closing Date of (A) each place of business of each Borrower and (B) the chief executive offices of each Borrower; and (iv) Schedule 4.5 hereto sets forth a correct and complete list as of the Closing
Date of the location, by state and street address, of all Real Property owned or leased by each Borrower, together with the names and addresses of any landlords. 
 4.6. Defense of Agent’s and Lenders’ Interests. Until (a) payment and performance in full of all of the Obligations and (b) termination of this Agreement, Agent’s interests in the
Collateral shall continue in full force and effect. During such period no Borrower shall, without Agent’s prior written consent, pledge, sell (except Inventory in the Ordinary Course of Business), assign, transfer, create or suffer to exist a
Lien upon or encumber or allow or suffer to be encumbered in any way, except for Permitted Encumbrances, any part of the Collateral. Each Borrower shall defend Agent’s interests in the Collateral against any and all Persons whatsoever. 

  

 46 








 
At any time following demand by Agent for payment of all Obligations, Agent shall have the right to take possession of the indicia of the Collateral and the
Collateral in whatever physical form contained, including without limitation: labels, stationery, documents, instruments and advertising materials. If Agent exercises this right to take possession of the Collateral, Borrowers shall, upon demand,
assemble it in the best manner possible and make it available to Agent at a place reasonably convenient to Agent. In addition, with respect to all Collateral, Agent and Lenders shall be entitled to all of the rights and remedies set forth herein and
further provided by the Uniform Commercial Code or other Applicable Law. Each Borrower shall, and Agent may, at its option, instruct all suppliers, carriers, forwarders, warehousers or others receiving or holding cash, checks, Inventory, documents
or instruments in which Agent holds a security interest to deliver same to Agent and/or subject to Agent’s order and if they shall come into any Borrower’s possession, they, and each of them, shall be held by such Borrower in trust as
Agent’s trustee, and such Borrower will immediately deliver them to Agent in their original form together with any necessary endorsement.

business operations. Each Borrower hereby authorizes all federal, state and municipal authorities to furnish to Agent and each Lender copies of reports or examinations relating to such Borrower, whether made by such Borrower or otherwise; however,
Agent and each Lender will attempt to obtain such information or materials directly from such Borrower prior to obtaining such information or materials from such accountants or such authorities. 
 4.9. Compliance with Laws. Each Borrower shall comply with all Applicable Laws with respect to the Collateral or any part thereof or to the
operation of such Borrower’s business the non-compliance with which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect on such Borrower. The assets of Borrowers at all times shall be maintained in accordance with the requirements of

 47 








 4.10. Inspection of Premises. At all reasonable times Agent and each Lender shall have full access
to and the right to audit, check, inspect and make abstracts and copies from each Borrower’s books, records, audits, correspondence and all other papers relating to the Collateral and the operation of each Borrower’s business. Agent, any
Lender and their agents may enter upon any of each Borrower’s premises at any time during business hours and at any other reasonable time, and from time to time, for the purpose of inspecting the Collateral and any and all records pertaining
thereto and the operation of such Borrower’s business. 
 4.11. Insurance. The assets and properties of each Borrower at all
times shall be maintained in accordance with the requirements of all insurance carriers which provide insurance with respect to the assets and properties of such Borrower so that such insurance shall remain in full force and effect. Each Borrower
shall bear the full risk of any loss of any nature whatsoever with respect to the Collateral. At each Borrower’s own cost and expense in amounts and with carriers reasonably acceptable to Agent, each Borrower shall: (a) keep all its
insurable properties and properties in which each Borrower has an interest insured against the hazards of fire, flood, sprinkler leakage, those hazards covered by extended coverage insurance and such other hazards, and for such amounts, as is
customary in the case of companies engaged in businesses similar to such Borrower’s including, without limitation, business interruption insurance; (b) maintain public and product liability insurance against claims for personal injury,
death or property damage suffered by others; (c) maintain all such worker’s compensation or similar insurance as may be required under the laws of any state or jurisdiction in which such Borrower is engaged in business; and

form and substance satisfactory to Agent, naming Agent as a co-insured and loss payee as its interests may appear with respect to all insurance coverage referred to in clauses (a) and (b) above, and providing (A) that all proceeds
thereunder shall be payable to Agent, (B) no such insurance shall be affected by any act or neglect of the insured or owner of the property described in such policy, and (C) that such policy and loss payable clauses may not be cancelled,
amended or terminated unless at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice is given to Agent. In the event of any loss thereunder, the carriers named therein hereby are directed by Agent and the applicable Borrower to make payment for
such loss to Agent and not to such Borrower and Agent jointly. If any insurance losses are paid by check, draft or other instrument payable to any Borrower and Agent jointly, Agent may endorse such Borrower’s name thereon and do such other
things as Agent may deem advisable to reduce the same to cash. Upon the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default, Agent is hereby authorized to adjust and compromise claims under insurance coverage referred to in clauses (a) and
(b) above. All loss recoveries received by Agent upon any such insurance may be applied to the Obligations, in such order as Agent in its sole discretion shall determine. Any surplus shall be paid by Agent to Borrowers or applied as may be
otherwise required by law. Any deficiency thereon shall be paid by Borrowers to Agent, on demand. 
 4.12. Failure to Pay Insurance.
If any Borrower fails to obtain insurance as hereinabove provided, or to keep the same in force, Agent, if Agent so elects, may obtain such insurance and pay the premium therefor on behalf of such Borrower, and charge Borrowers’ Account
therefor as a Revolving Advance of a Domestic Rate Loan and such expenses so paid shall be part of the Obligations. 
  

 48 








 4.13. Payment of Taxes. Each Borrower will pay, when due, all taxes, assessments and other Charges
lawfully levied or assessed upon such Borrower or any of the Collateral including, without limitation, real and personal property taxes, assessments and charges and all franchise, income, employment, social security benefits, withholding, and sales
taxes. If any tax by any Governmental Body is or may be imposed on or as a result of any transaction between any Borrower and Agent or any Lender which Agent or any Lender may be required to withhold or pay or if any taxes, assessments, or other
Charges remain unpaid after the date fixed for their payment, or if any claim shall be made which, in Agent’s or any Lender’s opinion, may possibly create a valid Lien on the Collateral, Agent may without notice to Borrowers pay the taxes,
assessments or other Charges and each Borrower hereby indemnifies and holds Agent and each Lender harmless in respect thereof. The amount of any payment by Agent under this Section 4.13 shall be charged to Borrowers’ Account as a Revolving
Advance of a Domestic Rate Loan and added to the Obligations and, until Borrowers shall furnish Agent with an indemnity therefor (or supply Agent with evidence satisfactory to Agent that due provision for the payment thereof has been made), Agent
may hold without interest any balance standing to Borrowers’ credit and Agent shall retain its security interest in and Lien on any and all Collateral held by Agent. 
 4.14. Payment of Leasehold Obligations. Each Borrower shall at all times pay, when and as due, its rental obligations under all leases under which it is a tenant, and shall otherwise comply, in all material
respects, with all other terms of such leases and keep them in full force and effect and, at Agent’s request will provide evidence of having done so. 
 4.15. Receivables. 
 (a) Nature of Receivables. Each of the Receivables shall be a bona fide
and valid account representing a bona fide indebtedness incurred by the Customer therein named, for a fixed sum as set forth in the invoice relating thereto (provided immaterial or unintentional invoice errors shall not be deemed to be a breach
hereof) with respect to an absolute sale or lease and delivery of goods upon stated terms of a Borrower, or work, labor or services theretofore rendered by a Borrower as of the date each Receivable is created. Same shall be due and owing in
accordance with the applicable Borrower’s standard terms of sale without dispute, setoff or counterclaim except as may be stated on the accounts receivable schedules delivered by Borrowers to Agent. 
 (b) Solvency of Customers. Each Customer, to the best of each Borrower’s knowledge, as of the date each Receivable is created, is and will be
solvent and able to pay all Receivables on which the Customer is obligated in full when due or with respect to such Customers of any Borrower who are not solvent such Borrower has set up on its books and in its financial records bad debt reserves
adequate to cover such Receivables.

addresses set forth on Schedule 4.15(c) hereto. Until written notice is given to Agent by Borrowing Agent of any other office at which any Borrower keeps its records pertaining to Receivables, all such records shall be kept at such executive
office. 
 (d) Collection of Receivables. Until any Borrower’s authority to do so is terminated by Agent (which notice Agent may
give at any time following the occurrence of an 

  

 49 








 
Event of Default or a Default or when Agent in its sole discretion deems it to be in Lenders’ best interest to do so), each Borrower will, at such
Borrower’s sole cost and expense, but on Agent’s behalf and for Agent’s account, collect as Agent’s property and in trust for Agent all amounts received on Receivables, and shall not commingle such collections with any
Borrower’s funds or use the same except to pay Obligations. Each Borrower shall, upon request, deliver to Agent, or deposit in the Blocked Account, in original form and on the date of receipt thereof, all checks, drafts, notes, money orders,
acceptances, cash and other evidences of Indebtedness. 
 (e) Notification of Assignment of Receivables. At any time after the
occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default or in the event that Agent reasonably believes that proceeds of the Collateral are being diverted, Agent shall have the right to send notice of the assignment of, and Agent’s security interest in
and Lien on, the Receivables to any and all Customers or any third party holding or otherwise concerned with any of the Collateral. Thereafter, Agent shall have the sole right to collect the Receivables, take possession of the Collateral, or both.
Agent’s actual collection expenses, including, but not limited to, stationery and postage, telephone and telegraph, secretarial and clerical expenses and the salaries of any collection personnel used for collection, may be charged to
Borrowers’ Account and added to the Obligations. 
 (f) Power of Agent to Act on Borrowers’ Behalf. Agent shall have the
right to receive, endorse, assign and/or deliver in the name of Agent or any Borrower any and all checks, drafts and other instruments for the payment of money relating to the Receivables, and each Borrower hereby waives notice of presentment,
protest and non-payment of any instrument so endorsed. Each Borrower hereby constitutes Agent or Agent’s designee as such Borrower’s attorney with power (A) at any time (i) to endorse such Borrower’s name upon any notes,

(vii) to prepare, file and sign such Borrower’s name on any notice of Lien, assignment or satisfaction of Lien or similar document in connection with the Receivables; and (viii) to do all other acts and things necessary to carry out
this Agreement. All acts of said attorney or designee are hereby ratified and approved, and said attorney or designee shall not be liable for any acts of omission or commission nor for any error of judgment or mistake of fact or of law, unless done
maliciously or with gross (not mere) negligence; this power being coupled with an interest is irrevocable while any of the Obligations remain unpaid. Agent shall have the right at any time to change the address for delivery of mail addressed to any
Borrower to such address as Agent may designate and to receive, open and dispose of all mail addressed to any Borrower. 
  

 50 








 (g) No Liability. Neither Agent nor any Lender shall, under any circumstances or in any event
whatsoever, have any liability for any error or omission or delay of any kind occurring in the settlement, collection or payment of any of the Receivables or any instrument received in payment thereof, or for any damage resulting therefrom.
Following the occurrence of an Event of Default or Default Agent may, without notice or consent from any Borrower, sue upon or otherwise collect, extend the time of payment of, compromise or settle for cash, credit or upon any terms any of the
Receivables or any other securities, instruments or insurance applicable thereto and/or release any obligor thereof. Agent is authorized and empowered to accept following the occurrence of an Event of Default or Default the return of the goods
represented by any of the Receivables, without notice to or consent by any Borrower, all without discharging or in any way affecting any Borrower’s liability hereunder. 
 (h) Establishment of a Lockbox Account, Dominion Account. All proceeds of Collateral shall be deposited by Borrowers into either (i) a
lockbox account, dominion account or such other “blocked account” (“Blocked Accounts”) established at a bank or banks (each such bank, a “Blocked Account Bank”) pursuant to an arrangement with such Blocked Account Bank
as may be selected by Borrowing Agent and be acceptable to Agent or (ii) depository accounts (“Depository Accounts”) established at the Agent for the deposit of such proceeds. Each applicable Borrower, Agent and each Blocked Account
Bank shall enter into a deposit account control agreement in form and substance satisfactory to Agent directing such Blocked Account Bank to transfer such funds so deposited to Agent, either to any account maintained by Agent at said Blocked Account
Bank or by wire transfer to appropriate account(s) of Agent. All funds deposited in such Blocked Accounts shall immediately become the property of Agent and Borrowing Agent shall obtain the agreement by such Blocked Account Bank to waive any offset
rights against the funds so deposited. Neither Agent nor any Lender assumes any responsibility for such blocked account arrangement, including any claim of accord and satisfaction or release with respect to deposits accepted by any Blocked Account
Bank thereunder. All deposit accounts and investment accounts of each Borrower and its Subsidiaries are set forth on Schedule 4.15(h). 
 (i) Adjustments. No Borrower will, without Agent’s consent, compromise or adjust any Receivables (or extend the time for payment thereof) or accept any returns of merchandise or grant any additional discounts, allowances or

 51 








 4.18. Exculpation of Liability. Nothing herein contained shall be construed to constitute Agent or
any Lender as any Borrower’s agent for any purpose whatsoever, nor shall Agent or any Lender be responsible or liable for any shortage, discrepancy, damage, loss or destruction of any part of the Collateral wherever the same may be located and
regardless of the cause thereof. Neither Agent nor any Lender, whether by anything herein or in any assignment or otherwise, assume any of any Borrower’s obligations under any contract or agreement assigned to Agent or such Lender, and neither
Agent nor any Lender shall be responsible in any way for the performance by any Borrower of any of the terms and conditions thereof.

continued compliance with all applicable Environmental Laws which system shall include periodic reviews of such compliance.

environmental conditions at the Real Property, demand letter or complaint, order, citation, or other written notice with regard to any Hazardous Discharge or violation of Environmental Laws affecting the Real Property or any Borrower’s interest
therein (any of the foregoing is referred to herein as an “Environmental Complaint”) from any Person, including any state agency responsible in whole or in part for environmental matters in the state in which the Real Property is located
or the United States Environmental Protection Agency (any such person or entity hereinafter the “Authority”), then Borrowing Agent shall, within five (5) Business Days, give written notice of same to Agent detailing facts and
circumstances of which any Borrower is aware giving rise to the Hazardous Discharge or Environmental Complaint. Such information is to be provided to allow Agent to protect its security interest in and Lien on the Collateral and is not intended to
create nor shall it create any obligation upon Agent or any Lender with respect thereto.

 (f) Borrowers shall respond promptly to any Hazardous Discharge or Environmental Complaint and take all necessary action in order to safeguard the health of any Person and to avoid subjecting the Collateral or Real
Property to any Lien. If any Borrower shall fail to respond promptly to any Hazardous Discharge or Environmental Complaint or any Borrower shall fail to comply with any of the requirements of any Environmental Laws, Agent on behalf of Lenders may,
but without the obligation to do so, for the sole purpose of protecting Agent’s interest in the Collateral (A) give such notices, or (B) enter onto the Real Property (or authorize third parties to enter onto the Real Property) and
take such actions as Agent (or such third parties as directed by Agent) deem reasonably necessary or advisable, to clean up, remove, mitigate or otherwise deal with any such Hazardous Discharge or Environmental Complaint. All reasonable costs and
expenses incurred by Agent and Lenders (or such third parties) in the exercise of any such rights, including any sums paid in connection with any judicial or administrative investigation or proceedings, fines and penalties, together with interest
thereon from the date expended at the Default Rate for Domestic Rate Loans constituting Revolving Advances shall be paid upon demand by Borrowers, and until paid shall be added to and become a part of the Obligations secured by the Liens created by
the terms of this Agreement or any other agreement between Agent, any Lender and any Borrower. 
 (g) Promptly upon the written request of
Agent from time to time, Borrowers shall provide Agent, at Borrowers’ expense, with an environmental site assessment or environmental audit report prepared by an environmental engineering firm acceptable in the reasonable opinion of Agent, to
assess with a reasonable degree of certainty the existence of a Hazardous Discharge and the potential costs in connection with abatement, cleanup and removal of any Hazardous Substances found on, under, at or within the Real Property. Any report or
investigation of such Hazardous Discharge proposed and acceptable to an appropriate Authority that is charged to oversee the clean-up of such Hazardous Discharge shall be acceptable to Agent. If such estimates, individually or in the aggregate,
exceed $100,000, Agent shall have the right to require Borrowers to post a bond, letter of credit or other security reasonably satisfactory to Agent to secure payment of these costs and expenses. 
 (h) Borrowers shall defend and indemnify Agent and Lenders and hold Agent, Lenders and their respective employees, agents, directors and officers
harmless from and against all loss, liability, damage and expense, claims, costs, fines and penalties, including attorney’s fees, suffered or incurred by Agent or Lenders under or on account of any Environmental Laws, including, without
limitation, the assertion of any Lien thereunder, with respect to any Hazardous Discharge, the presence of any Hazardous Substances affecting the Real Property, whether or not the same originates or emerges from the Real Property or any contiguous
real estate, including any loss of value of the Real Property as a result of the foregoing except to the extent such loss, liability, damage and expense is attributable to any Hazardous Discharge resulting from actions 

  

 53 








 
on the part of Agent or any Lender. Borrowers’ obligations under this Section 4.19 shall arise upon the discovery of the presence of any Hazardous
Substances at the Real Property, whether or not any federal, state, or local environmental agency has taken or threatened any action in connection with the presence of any Hazardous Substances. Borrowers’ obligation and the indemnifications
hereunder shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

shall be deemed to include all of Borrowers’ right, title and interest in and to its owned and leased premises.

filing of a petition against Borrower in any involuntary case under any state or federal bankruptcy laws, all Obligations shall be immediately due and payable and the obligation of Lenders to make Advances hereunder shall be terminated other than as
may be required by an appropriate order of the bankruptcy court having jurisdiction over any Borrower. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, Agent shall have the right to exercise any and all other rights and remedies provided for herein,
under the Other Documents, the Uniform 

  

 77 








 
Commercial Code and at law or equity generally, including, without limitation, the right to foreclose the security interests granted herein and to realize
upon any Collateral by any available judicial procedure and/or to take possession of and sell any or all of the Collateral with or without judicial process. Agent may enter any of any Borrower’s premises or other premises without legal process
and without incurring liability to any Borrower therefor, and Agent may thereupon, or at any time thereafter, in its discretion without notice or demand, take the Collateral and remove the same to such place as Agent may deem advisable and Agent may
require Borrowers to make the Collateral available to Agent at a convenient place. With or without having the Collateral at the time or place of sale, Agent may sell the Collateral, or any part thereof, at public or private sale, at any time or
place, in one or more sales, at such price or prices, and upon such terms, either for cash, credit or future delivery, as Agent may elect. Except as to that part of the Collateral which is perishable or threatens to decline speedily in value or is
of a type customarily sold on a recognized market, Agent shall give Borrowers reasonable notification of such sale or sales, it being agreed that in all events written notice mailed to Borrowing Agent at least ten (10) days prior to such sale
or sales is reasonable notification. At any public sale Agent or any Lender may bid for and become the purchaser, and Agent, any Lender or any other purchaser at any such sale thereafter shall hold the Collateral sold absolutely free from any claim
or right of whatsoever kind, including any equity of redemption and all such claims, rights and equities are hereby expressly waived and released by each Borrower. In connection with the exercise of the foregoing remedies, including the sale of
Inventory, Agent is granted a perpetual nonrevocable, royalty free, nonexclusive license and Agent is granted permission to use all of each Borrower’s (a) trademarks, trade styles, trade names, patents, patent applications, copyrights,
service marks, licenses, franchises and other proprietary rights which are used or useful in connection with Inventory for the purpose of marketing, advertising for sale and selling or otherwise disposing of such Inventory and (b) Equipment for
the purpose of completing the manufacture of unfinished goods. The cash proceeds realized from the sale of any Collateral shall be applied to the Obligations in the order set forth in Section 11.5 hereof. Noncash proceeds will only be applied
to the Obligations as they are converted into cash. If any deficiency shall arise, Borrowers shall remain liable to Agent and Lenders therefor. 
 (b) To the extent that Applicable Law imposes duties on Agent to exercise remedies in a commercially reasonable manner, Borrowers acknowledge and agree that it is not commercially unreasonable for Agent (i) to fail to incur expenses
reasonably deemed significant by Agent to prepare Collateral for disposition or otherwise to complete raw material or work in process into finished goods or other finished products for disposition, (ii) to fail to obtain third party consents
for access to Collateral to be disposed of, or to obtain or, if not required by other law, to fail to obtain governmental or third party consents for the collection or disposition of Collateral to be collected or disposed of, (iii) to fail to
exercise collection remedies against Customers or other Persons obligated on Collateral or to remove Liens on or any adverse claims against Collateral, (iv) to exercise collection remedies against Customers and other Persons obligated on
Collateral directly or through the use of collection agencies and other collection specialists, (v) to advertise dispositions of Collateral through publications or media of general circulation, whether or not the Collateral is of a specialized
nature, (vi) to contact other Persons, whether or not in the same business as Borrowers, for expressions of interest in acquiring all or any portion of such Collateral, (vii) to hire one or more professional auctioneers to assist in the


  

 78 








 
disposition of Collateral, whether or not the Collateral is of a specialized nature, (viii) to dispose of Collateral by utilizing internet sites that
provide for the auction of assets of the types included in the Collateral or that have the reasonable capacity of doing so, or that match buyers and sellers of assets, (ix) to dispose of assets in wholesale rather than retail markets,
(x) to disclaim disposition warranties, such as title, possession or quiet enjoyment, (xi) to purchase insurance or credit enhancements to insure Agent against risks of loss, collection or disposition of Collateral or to provide to Agent a
guaranteed return from the collection or disposition of Collateral, or (xii) to the extent deemed appropriate by Agent, to obtain the services of other brokers, investment bankers, consultants and other professionals to assist Agent in the
collection or disposition of any of the Collateral. Borrowers acknowledge that the purpose of this Section 11.1(b) is to provide non-exhaustive indications of what actions or omissions by Agent would not be commercially unreasonable in
Agent’s exercise of remedies against the Collateral and that other actions or omissions by Agent shall not be deemed commercially unreasonable solely on account of not being indicated in this Section 11.1(b). Without limitation upon the
foregoing, nothing contained in this Section 11.1(b) shall be construed to grant any rights to Borrowers or to impose any duties on Agent that would not have been granted or imposed by this Agreement or by Applicable Law in the absence of this
Section 11.1(b). 
 11.2. Agent’s Discretion. Agent shall have the right in its sole discretion to determine which rights,
Liens, security interests or remedies Agent may at any time pursue, relinquish, subordinate, or modify or to take any other action with respect thereto and such determination will not in any way modify or affect any of Agent’s or Lenders’
rights hereunder. 
 11.3. Setoff. In addition to any other rights which Agent or any Lender may have under Applicable Law, upon the
occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder, Agent and such Lender shall have a right immediately and without notice of any kind to apply any Borrower’s property held by Agent and such Lender to reduce the Obligations. 
 11.4. Rights and Remedies not Exclusive. The enumeration of the foregoing rights and remedies is not intended to be exhaustive and the exercise of
any right or remedy shall not preclude the exercise of any other right or remedies provided for herein or otherwise provided by law, all of which shall be cumulative and not alternative. 
 11.5. Allocation of Payments After Event of Default. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement to the contrary, after the occurrence
and during the continuance of an Event of Default, all amounts collected or received by the Agent on account of the Obligations or any other amounts outstanding under any of the Other Documents or in respect of the Collateral may, at Agent’s
discretion, be paid over or delivered as follows: 
 FIRST, to the payment of all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including
without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees) of the Agent in connection with enforcing the rights of the Lenders under this Agreement and the Other Documents and any protective advances made by the Agent with respect to the Collateral under
or pursuant to the terms of this Document; 
 SECOND, to payment of any fees owed to the Agent; 
  

 79 








 THIRD, to the payment of all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including without limitation,
reasonable attorneys’ fees) of each of the Lenders in connection with enforcing its rights under this Agreement and the Other Documents or otherwise with respect to the Obligations owing to such Lender; 
 FOURTH, to the payment of all of the Obligations consisting of accrued fees and interest; 
 FIFTH, to the payment of the outstanding principal amount of the Obligations (including the payment or cash collateralization of the outstanding Letters
of Credit); 
 SIXTH, to all other Obligations and other obligations which shall have become due and payable under the Other Documents or
otherwise and not repaid pursuant to clauses “FIRST” through “FIFTH” above; 
 SEVENTH, to the payment of the surplus, if
any, to whoever may be lawfully entitled to receive such surplus. 
 In carrying out the foregoing, (i) amounts received shall be applied in the
numerical order provided until exhausted prior to application to the next succeeding category; (ii) each of the Lenders shall receive (so long as it is not a Defaulting Lender) an amount equal to its pro rata share (based on the proportion that
the then outstanding Advances held by such Lender bears to the aggregate then outstanding Advances) of amounts available to be applied pursuant to clauses “THIRD”, “FOURTH”, “FIFTH” and “SIXTH” above; and
(iii) to the extent that any amounts available for distribution pursuant to clause “FIFTH” above are attributable to the issued but undrawn amount of outstanding Letters of Credit, such amounts shall be held by the Agent in a cash
collateral account and applied (A) first, to reimburse the Issuer from time to time for any drawings under such Letters of Credit and (B) then, following the expiration of all Letters of Credit, to all other obligations of the types
described in clauses “FIFTH” and “SIXTH” above in the manner provided in this Section 11.5.

(b) discharge due to any disability of such Borrower; (c) any defenses of such Borrower to obligations under this Agreement and the Other Documents not arising under the express terms of this Agreement or the Other Documents or from a
material breach thereof by Agent or Lenders which under Applicable Law has the effect of discharging such Borrower from the Obligations as to which this Agreement is sought to be enforced; (d) the benefit of any act or omission by Agent or
Lenders which directly or indirectly results in or aids the discharge of such Borrower from any of the Obligations by operation of law or otherwise; (e) except as expressly provided herein, all notices whatsoever, including notice of acceptance

Person from its Obligations hereunder; and (g) any requirement that Agent or Lenders exhaust any right, power or remedy or proceed against any other
Person or any other security for, or any guarantor of, or any other party liable for, any of the Obligations, or any portion thereof. Each Borrower specifically agrees that it shall not be necessary or required, and no Borrower shall be entitled to
require, that Agent or Lenders (i) file suit or proceed to assert or obtain a claim for personal judgment against any other Person for all or any part of the Obligations; (ii) make any effort at collection or enforcement of all or any part
of the Obligations from other Person; (iii) foreclose against or seek to realize upon the Collateral or any other security now or hereafter existing for all or any part of the Obligations; (iv) file suit or proceed to obtain or assert a

(whether arising directly or indirectly, by operation of law, contract or otherwise) to require the marshaling of any assets of any Borrower, which right of marshalling might otherwise arise from any such payments made or obligations performed; and

 (b) Any and all rights that would result in any Borrower being deemed a “creditor” under the United States Code of any other
Person, on account of payments made or obligations performed by any Borrower. 
 12.2. Delay. No delay or omission on Agent’s or
any Lender’s part in exercising any right, remedy or option shall operate as a waiver of such or any other right, remedy or option or of any Default or Event of Default. 
 12.3. Jury Waiver. EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION
(A) ARISING UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER INSTRUMENT, DOCUMENT OR AGREEMENT EXECUTED OR DELIVERED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH, OR (B) IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH OR RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THE DEALINGS OF THE PARTIES HERETO OR ANY OF THEM

 81 









	XIII.	EFFECTIVE DATE AND TERMINATION. 

 13.1. Term.
This Agreement, which shall inure to the benefit of and shall be binding upon the respective successors and permitted assigns of each Borrower, Agent and each Lender, shall become effective on the date hereof and shall continue in full force and
effect until August 4, 2008 (the “Term”) unless sooner terminated as herein provided. Borrowers may terminate this Agreement at any time upon ninety (90) days’ prior written notice upon payment in full of the Obligations. In
the event the Obligations are prepaid in full prior to the last day of the Term (the date of such prepayment hereinafter referred to as the “Early Termination Date”), Borrowers shall pay to Agent for the benefit of Lenders an early
termination fee in an amount equal to (x) 2% of the Maximum Loan Amount if the Early Termination Date occurs on or after the Closing Date to and including the date immediately preceding the first anniversary of the Closing Date, (y) 1% of
the Maximum Loan Amount if the Early Termination Date occurs on or after the first anniversary of the Closing Date to and including the date immediately preceding the second anniversary of the Closing Date, and (z) .50% of the Maximum Loan
Amount if the Early Termination Date occurs on or after the second anniversary of the Closing Date to and including the date immediately preceding the third anniversary of the Closing Date. 
 13.2. Termination. The termination of the Agreement shall not affect any Borrower’s, Agent’s or any Lender’s rights, or any of the
Obligations having their inception prior to the effective date of such termination, and the provisions hereof shall continue to be fully operative until all transactions entered into, rights or interests created or Obligations have been fully
disposed of, concluded or liquidated. The security interests, Liens and rights granted to Agent and Lenders hereunder and the financing statements filed hereunder shall continue in full force and effect, notwithstanding the termination of this
Agreement or the fact that Borrowers’ Account may from time to time be temporarily in a zero or credit position, until all of the Obligations of each Borrower have been paid or performed in full after the termination of this Agreement or each
Borrower has furnished Agent and Lenders with an indemnification satisfactory to Agent and Lenders with respect thereto. Accordingly, each Borrower waives any rights which it may have under the Uniform Commercial Code to demand the filing of
termination statements with respect to the Collateral, and Agent shall not be required to send such termination statements to each Borrower, or to file them with any filing office, unless and until this Agreement shall have been terminated in
accordance with its terms and all Obligations paid in full in immediately available funds. All representations, warranties, covenants, waivers and agreements contained herein shall survive termination hereof until all Obligations are paid or
performed in full. 
  

	XIV.	REGARDING AGENT. 

 14.1. Appointment. Each
Lender hereby designates PNC to act as Agent for such Lender under this Agreement and the Other Documents. Each Lender hereby irrevocably authorizes Agent to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and the Other
Documents and to exercise such powers and to perform such duties hereunder and thereunder as are specifically delegated to or required of Agent by the terms hereof and thereof and such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto and Agent
shall hold all Collateral, payments of principal and interest, fees (except the fees set forth in Sections 3.3(a) and 3.4 and the Fee Letter), charges and collections (without giving effect to any collection days) received 

  

 82 








 
pursuant to this Agreement, for the ratable benefit of Lenders. Agent may perform any of its duties hereunder by or through its agents or employees. As to
any matters not expressly provided for by this Agreement (including without limitation, collection of the Note) Agent shall not be required to exercise any discretion or take any action, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and
shall be fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the instructions of the Required Lenders, and such instructions shall be binding; provided, however, that Agent shall not be required to take any action which
exposes Agent to liability or which is contrary to this Agreement or the Other Documents or Applicable Law unless Agent is furnished with an indemnification reasonably satisfactory to Agent with respect thereto. 
 14.2. Nature of Duties. Agent shall have no duties or responsibilities except those expressly set forth in this Agreement and the Other Documents.
Neither Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees or agents shall be (i) liable for any action taken or omitted by them as such hereunder or in connection herewith, unless caused by their gross (not mere) negligence or willful
misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable judgment), or (ii) responsible in any manner for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by any Borrower or any officer thereof
contained in this Agreement, or in any of the Other Documents or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any of the Other Documents
or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, due execution, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement, or any of the Other Documents or for any failure of any Borrower to perform its obligations hereunder. Agent shall not be under
any obligation to any Lender to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any of the Other Documents, or to inspect the properties, books or records of any
Borrower. The duties of Agent as respects the Advances to Borrowers shall be mechanical and administrative in nature; Agent shall not have by reason of this Agreement a fiduciary relationship in respect of any Lender; and nothing in this Agreement,
expressed or implied, is intended to or shall be so construed as to impose upon Agent any obligations in respect of this Agreement except as expressly set forth herein. 
 14.3. Lack of Reliance on Agent and Resignation. Independently and without reliance upon Agent or any other Lender, each Lender has made and shall continue to make (i) its own independent investigation of
the financial condition and affairs of each Borrower in connection with the making and the continuance of the Advances hereunder and the taking or not taking of any action in connection herewith, and (ii) its own appraisal of the
creditworthiness of each Borrower. Agent shall have no duty or responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis, to provide any Lender with any credit or other information with respect thereto, whether coming into its possession before
making of the Advances or at any time or times thereafter except as shall be provided by any Borrower pursuant to the terms hereof. Agent shall not be responsible to any Lender for any recitals, statements, information, representations or warranties
herein or in any agreement, document, certificate or a statement delivered in connection with or for the execution, effectiveness, genuineness, validity, enforceability, collectibility or sufficiency of this Agreement or any Other Document, or of
the financial condition of any Borrower, or be required to make any inquiry concerning either the performance or observance of any of the terms, provisions or conditions of this Agreement, the Note, the Other Documents or the financial condition of
any Borrower, or the existence of any Event of Default or any Default. 
  

 83 








 Agent may resign on sixty (60) days’ written notice to each of Lenders and Borrowing Agent and
upon such resignation, the Required Lenders will promptly designate a successor Agent reasonably satisfactory to Borrowers. 
 Any such
successor Agent shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties of Agent, and the term “Agent” shall mean such successor agent effective upon its appointment, and the former Agent’s rights, powers and duties as Agent shall be
terminated, without any other or further act or deed on the part of such former Agent. After any Agent’s resignation as Agent, the provisions of this Article XIV shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it
while it was Agent under this Agreement. 
 14.4. Certain Rights of Agent. If Agent shall request instructions from Lenders with
respect to any act or action (including failure to act) in connection with this Agreement or any Other Document, Agent shall be entitled to refrain from such act or taking such action unless and until Agent shall have received instructions from the
Required Lenders; and Agent shall not incur liability to any Person by reason of so refraining. Without limiting the foregoing, Lenders shall not have any right of action whatsoever against Agent as a result of its acting or refraining from acting
hereunder in accordance with the instructions of the Required Lenders. 
 14.5. Reliance. Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall
be fully protected in relying, upon any note, writing, resolution, notice, statement, certificate, telex, teletype or telecopier message, cablegram, order or other document or telephone message believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have
been signed, sent or made by the proper person or entity, and, with respect to all legal matters pertaining to this Agreement and the Other Documents and its duties hereunder, upon advice of counsel selected by it. Agent may employ agents and
attorneys-in-fact and shall not be liable for the default or misconduct of any such agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by Agent with reasonable care. 
 14.6. Notice of Default. Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default hereunder or under the Other Documents, unless Agent has received notice from
a Lender or a Borrower referring to this Agreement or the Other Documents, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default”. In the event that Agent receives such a notice, Agent shall give
notice thereof to Lenders. Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall be reasonably directed by the Required Lenders; provided, that, unless and until Agent shall have received such
directions, Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interests of Lenders. 
 14.7. Indemnification. To the extent Agent is not reimbursed and indemnified by Borrowers, each Lender will reimburse and indemnify Agent in
proportion to its respective portion of the Advances (or, if no Advances are outstanding, according to its Commitment Percentage), from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs,
expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against Agent in performing its duties hereunder, or in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any Other Document;
provided that, Lenders shall not be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, 

  

 84 








 
damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from Agent’s gross (not mere) negligence or willful misconduct
(as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable judgment). 
 14.8. Agent in its Individual Capacity.
With respect to the obligation of Agent to lend under this Agreement, the Advances made by it shall have the same rights and powers hereunder as any other Lender and as if it were not performing the duties as Agent specified herein; and the term
“Lender” or any similar term shall, unless the context clearly otherwise indicates, include Agent in its individual capacity as a Lender. Agent may engage in business with any Borrower as if it were not performing the duties specified
herein, and may accept fees and other consideration from any Borrower for services in connection with this Agreement or otherwise without having to account for the same to Lenders. 
 14.9. Delivery of Documents. To the extent Agent receives financial statements required under Sections 9.7, 9.8, and 9.9 from any Borrower
pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, Agent will promptly furnish such documents and information to Lenders. 
 14.10. Borrowers’
Undertaking to Agent. Without prejudice to their respective obligations to Lenders under the other provisions of this Agreement, each Borrower hereby undertakes with Agent to pay to Agent from time to time on demand all amounts from time to time
due and payable by it for the account of Agent or Lenders or any of them pursuant to this Agreement to the extent not already paid. Any payment made pursuant to any such demand shall pro tanto satisfy the relevant Borrower’s
obligations to make payments for the account of Lenders or the relevant one or more of them pursuant to this Agreement. 
 14.11. No
Reliance on Agent’s Customer Identification Program. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that neither such Lender, nor any of its Affiliates, participants or assignees, may rely on the Agent to carry out such Lender’s,
Affiliate’s, participant’s or assignee’s customer identification program, or other obligations required or imposed under or pursuant to the USA Patriot Act or the regulations thereunder, including the regulations contained in 31 CFR
103.121 (as hereafter amended or replaced, the “CIP Regulations”), or any other Anti-Terrorism Law, including any programs involving any of the following items relating to or in connection with Borrowers, their Affiliates or their agents,
this Agreement, the Other Documents or the transactions hereunder or contemplated hereby: (1) any identity verification procedures, (2) any recordkeeping, (3) comparisons with government lists, (4) customer notices or
(5) other procedures required under the CIP Regulations or such other laws. 
 14.12. Other Agreements. Each of the Lenders
agrees that it shall not, without the express consent of Agent, and that it shall, to the extent it is lawfully entitled to do so, upon the request of Agent, set off against the Obligations, any amounts owing by such Lender to any Borrower or any
deposit accounts of any Borrower now or hereafter maintained with such Lender. Each of the Lenders further agrees that it shall not, unless specifically requested to do so by Agent, take or cause to be taken any action, including, the commencement
of any legal or equitable proceedings, to foreclose any Lien on, or otherwise enforce any security interest in, any of the Collateral the purpose of which is, or could be, to give such Lender any preference or priority against the other Lenders with
respect to the Collateral. 
  

 85 









	XV.	BORROWING AGENCY. 

 15.1. Borrowing Agency
Provisions. 
 (a) Each Borrower hereby irrevocably designates Borrowing Agent to be its attorney and agent and in such capacity to
borrow, sign and endorse notes, and execute and deliver all instruments, documents, writings and further assurances now or hereafter required hereunder, on behalf of such Borrower or Borrowers, and hereby authorizes Agent to pay over or credit all
loan proceeds hereunder in accordance with the request of Borrowing Agent. 
 (b) The handling of this credit facility as a co-borrowing
facility with a borrowing agent in the manner set forth in this Agreement is solely as an accommodation to Borrowers and at their request. Neither Agent nor any Lender shall incur liability to Borrowers as a result thereof. To induce Agent and
Lenders to do so and in consideration thereof, each Borrower hereby indemnifies Agent and each Lender and holds Agent and each Lender harmless from and against any and all liabilities, expenses, losses, damages and claims of damage or injury
asserted against Agent or any Lender by any Person arising from or incurred by reason of the handling of the financing arrangements of Borrowers as provided herein, reliance by Agent or any Lender on any request or instruction from Borrowing Agent
or any other action taken by Agent or any Lender with respect to this Section 15.1 except due to willful misconduct or gross (not mere) negligence by the indemnified party (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final
non-appealable judgment). 
 (c) All Obligations shall be joint and several, and each Borrower shall make payment upon the maturity of the
Obligations by acceleration or otherwise, and such obligation and liability on the part of each Borrower shall in no way be affected by any extensions, renewals and forbearance granted to Agent or any Lender to any Borrower, failure of Agent or any
Lender to give any Borrower notice of borrowing or any other notice, any failure of Agent or any Lender to pursue or preserve its rights against any Borrower, the release by Agent or any Lender of any Collateral now or thereafter acquired from any
Borrower, and such agreement by each Borrower to pay upon any notice issued pursuant thereto is unconditional and unaffected by prior recourse by Agent or any Lender to the other Borrowers or any Collateral for such Borrower’s Obligations or
the lack thereof. Each Borrower waives all suretyship defenses. 
 15.2. Waiver of Subrogation. Each Borrower expressly waives any and
all rights of subrogation, reimbursement, indemnity, exoneration, contribution of any other claim which such Borrower may now or hereafter have against the other Borrowers or other Person directly or contingently liable for the Obligations
hereunder, or against or with respect to the other Borrowers’ property (including, without limitation, any property which is Collateral for the Obligations), arising from the existence or performance of this Agreement, until termination of this
Agreement and repayment in full of the Obligations. 
  

	XVI.	MISCELLANEOUS. 

 16.1. Governing Law. This
Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania applied to contracts to be performed wholly within the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. Any judicial proceeding brought 

  

 86 








 
by or against any Borrower with respect to any of the Obligations, this Agreement or any related agreement may be brought in any court of competent
jurisdiction in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, United States of America, and, by execution and delivery of this Agreement, each Borrower accepts for itself and in connection with its properties, generally and unconditionally, the non-exclusive
jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts, and irrevocably agrees to be bound by any judgment rendered thereby in connection with this Agreement. Each Borrower hereby waives personal service of any and all process upon it and consents that all such
service of process may be made by registered mail (return receipt requested) directed to Borrowing Agent at its address set forth in Section 16.6 and service so made shall be deemed completed five (5) days after the same shall have been so
deposited in the mails of the United States of America, or, at the Agent’s and/or any Lender’s option, by service upon Borrowing Agent which each Borrower irrevocably appoints as such Borrower’s Agent for the purpose of accepting
service within the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. Nothing herein shall affect the right to serve process in any manner permitted by law or shall limit the right of Agent or any Lender to bring proceedings against any Borrower in the courts of any
other jurisdiction. Each Borrower waives any objection to jurisdiction and venue of any action instituted hereunder and shall not assert any defense based on lack of jurisdiction or venue or based upon forum non conveniens. Each Borrower
waives the right to remove any judicial proceeding brought against such Borrower in any state court to any federal court. Any judicial proceeding by any Borrower against Agent or any Lender involving, directly or indirectly, any matter or claim in
any way arising out of, related to or connected with this Agreement or any related agreement, shall be brought only in a federal or state court located in the County of Philadelphia, Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. 
 16.2. Entire Understanding. (a) This Agreement and the documents executed concurrently herewith contain the entire understanding between each
Borrower, Agent and each Lender and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, if any, relating to the subject matter hereof. Any promises, representations, warranties or guarantees not herein contained and hereinafter made shall have no
force and effect unless in writing, signed by each Borrower’s, Agent’s and each Lender’s respective officers. Neither this Agreement nor any portion or provisions hereof may be changed, modified, amended, waived, supplemented,
discharged, cancelled or terminated orally or by any course of dealing, or in any manner other than by an agreement in writing, signed by the party to be charged. Each Borrower acknowledges that it has been advised by counsel in connection with the
execution of this Agreement and Other Documents and is not relying upon oral representations or statements inconsistent with the terms and provisions of this Agreement. 
 (b) The Required Lenders, Agent with the consent in writing of the Required Lenders, and Borrowers may, subject to the provisions of this Section 16.2 (b), from time to time enter into written supplemental
agreements to this Agreement or the Other Documents executed by Borrowers, for the purpose of adding or deleting any provisions or otherwise changing, varying or waiving in any manner the rights of Lenders, Agent or Borrowers thereunder or the
conditions, provisions or terms thereof of waiving any Event of Default thereunder, but only to the extent specified in such written agreements; provided, however, that no such supplemental agreement shall, without the consent of all
Lenders: 
 (i) increase the Commitment Percentage or maximum dollar commitment of any Lender. 
  

 87 








 (ii) extend the maturity of any Note or the due date for any amount payable hereunder, or
decrease the rate of interest or reduce any fee payable by Borrowers to Lenders pursuant to this Agreement. 
 (iii) alter the
definition of the term Required Lenders or alter, amend or modify this Section 16.2(b). 
 (iv) release any Collateral
during any calendar year (other than in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement) having an aggregate value in excess of $500,000 
 (v) change the rights and duties of Agent. 
 (vi) permit any Revolving Advance to be made if
after giving effect thereto the total of Revolving Advances outstanding hereunder would exceed the Formula Amount for more than sixty (60) consecutive Business Days or exceed one hundred and ten percent (110%) of the Formula Amount.

 (vii) increase the Advance Rates above the Advance Rates in effect on the Closing Date. 
 Any such supplemental agreement shall apply equally to each Lender and shall be binding upon Borrowers, Lenders and Agent and all future holders of the Obligations. In
the case of any waiver, Borrowers, Agent and Lenders shall be restored to their former positions and rights, and any Event of Default waived shall be deemed to be cured and not continuing, but no waiver of a specific Event of Default shall extend to
any subsequent Event of Default (whether or not the subsequent Event of Default is the same as the Event of Default which was waived), or impair any right consequent thereon. 
 In the event that Agent requests the consent of a Lender pursuant to this Section 16.2 and such Lender shall not respond or reply to Agent in
writing within five (5) days of delivery of such request, such Lender shall be deemed to have consented to matter that was the subject of the request. In the event that Agent requests the consent of a Lender pursuant to this Section 16.2
and such consent is denied, then PNC may, at its option, require such Lender to assign its interest in the Advances to PNC or to another Lender or to any other Person designated by the Agent (the “Designated Lender”), for a price equal to
(i) the then outstanding principal amount thereof plus (ii) accrued and unpaid interest and fees due such Lender, which interest and fees shall be paid when collected from Borrowers. In the event PNC elects to require any Lender to
assign its interest to PNC or to the Designated Lender, PNC will so notify such Lender in writing within forty five (45) days following such Lender’s denial, and such Lender will assign its interest to PNC or the Designated Lender no later
than five (5) days following receipt of such notice pursuant to a Commitment Transfer Supplement executed by such Lender, PNC or the Designated Lender, as appropriate, and Agent. 
 Notwithstanding (a) the existence of a Default or an Event of Default, (b) that any of the other applicable conditions precedent set forth in
Section 8.2 hereof have not been satisfied or (c) any other provision of this Agreement, Agent may at its discretion and without the consent of the 

  

 88 








 
Required Lenders, voluntarily permit the outstanding Revolving Advances at any time to exceed the Formula Amount by up to ten percent (10%) of the
Formula Amount for up to thirty (30) consecutive Business Days (the “Out-of-Formula Loans”). If Agent is willing in its sole and absolute discretion to make such Out-of-Formula Loans, such Out-of-Formula Loans shall be payable on
demand and shall bear interest at the Default Rate for Revolving Advances; provided that, if Lenders do make Out-of-Formula Loans, neither Agent nor Lenders shall be deemed thereby to have changed the limits of Section 2.1(a). For purposes of
this paragraph, the discretion granted to Agent hereunder shall not preclude involuntary overadvances that may result from time to time due to the fact that the Formula Amount was unintentionally exceeded for any reason, including, but not limited
to, Collateral previously deemed to be either “Eligible Receivables” or “Eligible Inventory”, as applicable, becomes ineligible, collections of Receivables applied to reduce outstanding Revolving Advances are thereafter returned
for insufficient funds or overadvances are made to protect or preserve the Collateral. In the event Agent involuntarily permits the outstanding Revolving Advances to exceed the Formula Amount by more than ten percent (10%), Agent shall use its
efforts to have Borrowers decrease such excess in as expeditious a manner as is practicable under the circumstances and not inconsistent with the reason for such excess. Revolving Advances made after Agent has determined the existence of involuntary
overadvances shall be deemed to be involuntary overadvances and shall be decreased in accordance with the preceding sentence. 
 In addition
to (and not in substitution of) the discretionary Revolving Advances permitted above in this Section 16.2, the Agent is hereby authorized by the Borrowers and the Lenders, from time to time in the Agent’s sole discretion, (A) after
the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default or an Event of Default, or (B) at any time that any of the other applicable conditions precedent set forth in Section 8.2 hereof have not been satisfied, to make Revolving Advances to
the Borrowers on behalf of the Lenders which the Agent, in its reasonable business judgment, deems necessary or desirable (a) to preserve or protect the Collateral, or any portion thereof, (b) to enhance the likelihood of, or maximize the
amount of, repayment of the Advances and other Obligations, or (c) to pay any other amount chargeable to the Borrowers pursuant to the terms of this Agreement; provided, that at any time after giving effect to any such Revolving
Advances the outstanding Revolving Advances do not exceed one hundred and ten percent (110%) of the Formula Amount. 
 16.3.
Successors and Assigns; Participations; New Lenders. 
 (a) This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Borrowers,
Agent, each Lender, all future holders of the Obligations and their respective successors and assigns, except that no Borrower may assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of Agent
and each Lender. 
 (b) Each Borrower acknowledges that in the regular course of commercial banking business one or more Lenders may at any
time and from time to time sell participating interests in the Advances to other financial institutions (each such transferee or purchaser of a participating interest, a “Participant”). Each Participant may exercise all rights of payment
(including without limitation rights of set-off) with respect to the portion of such Advances held by it or other Obligations payable hereunder as fully as if such Participant were the direct holder thereof provided that Borrowers shall not be
required to pay to any Participant more than the 

  

 89 








 
amount which it would have been required to pay to Lender which granted an interest in its Advances or other Obligations payable hereunder to such
Participant had such Lender retained such interest in the Advances hereunder or other Obligations payable hereunder and in no event shall Borrowers be required to pay any such amount arising from the same circumstances and with respect to the same
Advances or other Obligations payable hereunder to both such Lender and such Participant . Each Borrower hereby grants to any Participant a continuing security interest in any deposits, moneys or other property actually or constructively held by
such Participant as security for the Participant’s interest in the Advances. 
 (c) Any Lender may with the consent of Agent which shall
not be unreasonably withheld or delayed sell, assign or transfer all or any part of its rights under this Agreement and the Other Documents to one or more additional banks or financial institutions and one or more additional banks or financial
institutions may commit to make Advances hereunder (each a “Purchasing Lender”, and together with each Participant, each a “Transferee” and collectively the “Transferees”), in minimum amounts of not less than
$5,000,000, pursuant to a Commitment Transfer Supplement, executed by a Purchasing Lender, the transferor Lender, and Agent and delivered to Agent for recording. Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and recording, from and after the transfer
effective date determined pursuant to such Commitment Transfer Supplement, (i) Purchasing Lender thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent provided in such Commitment Transfer Supplement, have the rights and obligations of a Lender
thereunder with a Commitment Percentage as set forth therein, and (ii) the transferor Lender thereunder shall, to the extent provided in such Commitment Transfer Supplement, be released from its obligations under this Agreement, the Commitment
Transfer Supplement creating a novation for that purpose. Such Commitment Transfer Supplement shall be deemed to amend this Agreement to the extent, and only to the extent, necessary to reflect the addition of such Purchasing Lender and the
resulting adjustment of the Commitment Percentages arising from the purchase by such Purchasing Lender of all or a portion of the rights and obligations of such transferor Lender under this Agreement and the Other Documents. Borrowers hereby consent
to the addition of such Purchasing Lender and the resulting adjustment of the Commitment Percentages arising from the purchase by such Purchasing Lender of all or a portion of the rights and obligations of such transferor Lender under this Agreement
and the Other Documents. Borrowers shall execute and deliver such further documents and do such further acts and things in order to effectuate the foregoing. 
 (d) Agent shall maintain at its address a copy of each Commitment Transfer Supplement delivered to it and a register (the “Register”) for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Advances owing to
each Lender from time to time. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, in the absence of manifest error, and Borrowers, Agent and Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as the owner of the Advance recorded
therein for the purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by Borrowers or any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. Agent shall receive a fee in the amount of $3,500
payable by the applicable Purchasing Lender upon the effective date of each transfer or assignment to such Purchasing Lender. 
 (e) Each
Borrower authorizes each Lender to disclose to any Transferee and any prospective Transferee any and all financial information in such Lender’s possession concerning such Borrower which has been delivered to such Lender by or on behalf of such
Borrower pursuant to this Agreement or in connection with such Lender’s credit evaluation of such Borrower.

 16.4. Application of Payments. Agent shall have the continuing and exclusive right to apply or
reverse and re-apply any payment and any and all proceeds of Collateral to any portion of the Obligations. To the extent that any Borrower makes a payment or Agent or any Lender receives any payment or proceeds of the Collateral for any
Borrower’s benefit, which are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to a trustee, debtor in possession, receiver, custodian or any other party under any bankruptcy law, common
law or equitable cause, then, to such extent, the Obligations or part thereof intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continue as if such payment or proceeds had not been received by Agent or such Lender. 
 16.5. Indemnity. Each Borrower shall indemnify Agent, each Lender and each of their respective officers, directors, Affiliates, attorneys,
employees and agents from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses and disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (including, without limitation, fees and
disbursements of counsel) which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against Agent or any Lender in any litigation, proceeding or investigation instituted or conducted by any Governmental Body or instrumentality or any other Person with
respect to any aspect of, or any transaction contemplated by, or referred to in, or any matter related to, this Agreement or the Other Documents, whether or not Agent or any Lender is a party thereto, except to the extent that any of the foregoing
arises out of the willful misconduct or gross-negligence of the party being indemnified (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, this indemnity
shall extend to any liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses and disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (including fees and disbursements of counsel) asserted against or incurred by any
of the indemnitees described above in this Section 16.5 by any Person under any Environmental Laws or similar laws by reason of Borrower’s or any other Person’s failure to comply with laws applicable to solid or hazardous waste
materials, including Hazardous Substances and Hazardous Waste, or other Toxic Substances. Additionally, if any taxes (excluding generally applicable taxes on gross revenues or gross receipts, or taxes imposed upon or measured by net income, but
including any intangibles taxes, stamp tax, recording tax or franchise tax not imposed upon or measured by net income) shall be payable by Agent, any Lender, or Borrower on account of the execution or delivery of this Agreement, or the execution,
delivery, issuance or recording of any of the Other Documents, or the creation or repayment of any of the Obligations hereunder, by reason of any Applicable Law now or hereafter in effect, Borrower will pay (or will promptly reimburse Agent and
Lenders for payment of) all such taxes, including interest and penalties thereon, and will indemnify and hold the indemnitees described above in this Section 16.5 harmless from and against all liability in connection therewith. 
 16.6. Notice. Any notice or request hereunder may be given to Borrowing Agent or any Borrower or to Agent or any Lender at their respective
addresses set forth below or at such other address as may hereafter be specified in a notice designated as a notice of change of address under this Section. Any notice, request, demand, direction or other communication (for purposes of this

 16.7. Survival. The obligations of Borrowers under Sections 2.2(f), 3.8, 3.9, 3.10, 3.11,
4.19(h), and 16.5 and the obligations of Lenders under Section 14.7 shall survive termination of this Agreement and the Other Documents and payment in full of the Obligations. 
 16.8. Severability. If any part of this Agreement is contrary to, prohibited by, or deemed invalid under Applicable Laws or regulations, such
provision shall be inapplicable and deemed omitted to the extent so contrary, prohibited or invalid, but the remainder hereof shall not be invalidated thereby and shall be given effect so far as possible. 
 16.9. Expenses. All costs and expenses including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees (including the allocated costs of in house
counsel) and disbursements incurred by Agent on its behalf or on behalf of Lenders and Lenders (a) in all efforts made to enforce payment of any Obligation or effect collection of any Collateral, or (b) in connection with the entering
into, modification, amendment, administration and enforcement of this Agreement, the Subordination Agreements or any consents or waivers hereunder and all related agreements, documents and instruments, or (c) in instituting, maintaining,
preserving, enforcing and foreclosing on Agent’s security interest in or Lien on any of the Collateral, or maintaining, preserving or enforcing any of Agent’s or any Lender’s rights hereunder and under all related agreements, whether
through judicial proceedings or otherwise, or (d) in defending or prosecuting any actions or proceedings arising out of or relating to Agent’s or any Lender’s transactions with any Borrower, or (e) in connection with any advice
given to Agent or any Lender with respect to its rights and obligations under this Agreement and all related agreements, may be charged to Borrowers’ Account and shall be part of the Obligations. 
 16.10. Injunctive Relief. Each Borrower recognizes that, in the event any Borrower fails to perform, observe or discharge any of its obligations
or liabilities under this Agreement, or threatens to fail to perform, observe or discharge such obligations or liabilities, any remedy at law may prove to be inadequate relief to Lenders; therefore, Agent, if Agent so requests, shall be entitled to
temporary and permanent injunctive relief in any such case without the necessity of proving that actual damages are not an adequate remedy. 
  

 93 








 16.11. Consequential Damages. Neither Agent nor any Lender, nor any agent or attorney for any of
them, shall be liable to any Borrower for consequential damages arising from any breach of contract, tort or other wrong relating to the establishment, administration or collection of the Obligations. 
 16.12. Captions. The captions at various places in this Agreement are intended for convenience only and do not constitute and shall not be
interpreted as part of this Agreement. 
 16.13. Counterparts; Facsimile Signatures. This Agreement may be executed in any number of

transmission shall be deemed to be an original signature hereto. 
 16.14. Construction. The parties acknowledge that each party and
its counsel have reviewed this Agreement and that the normal rule of construction to the effect that any ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting party shall not be employed in the interpretation of this Agreement or any amendments,
schedules or exhibits thereto. 
 16.15. Confidentiality; Sharing Information. (a) Agent, each Lender and each Transferee shall
hold all non-public information obtained by Agent, such Lender or such Transferee pursuant to the requirements of this Agreement in accordance with Agent’s, such Lender’s and such Transferee’s customary procedures for handling

of such non-public information (A) by a Governmental Body or representative thereof (other than any such request in connection with an examination of the financial condition of a Lender or a Transferee by such Governmental Body) or
(B) pursuant to legal process and (ii) in no event shall Agent, any Lender or any Transferee be obligated to return any materials furnished by any Borrower other than those documents and instruments in possession of Agent or any Lender in
order to perfect its Lien on the Collateral once the Obligations have been paid in full and this Agreement has been terminated. 
 (b) Each

Section 16.15 as if it were a Lender hereunder. Such authorization shall survive the repayment of the other Obligations and the termination of the Loan Agreement. 
  

 94 








 (c) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the information subject to this Section 16.15
shall not include, and Agent and each Lender may disclose without limitation of any kind, any information with respect to the “tax treatment” and “tax structure” (in each case, within the meaning of Treasury Regulation
Section 1.6011-4) of the transactions contemplated hereby and all materials of any kind (including opinions or other tax analyses) that are provided to Agent or such Lender relating to such tax treatment and tax structure; provided that with
respect to any document or similar item that in either case contains information concerning the tax treatment or tax structure of the transaction as well as other information, this sentence shall only apply to such portions of the document or
similar item that relate to the tax treatment or tax structure of the Advances and transactions contemplated hereby. 
 16.16.
Publicity. Each Borrower and each Lender hereby authorizes Agent to make appropriate announcements of the financial arrangement entered into among Borrowers, Agent and Lenders, including, without limitation, announcements which are commonly

 This First Amendment to Revolving Credit and Security Agreement (the “Amendment”) is made this 26th day of April, 2006 by and among AKRION, INC., a corporation organized under the laws of the State of Delaware (“Akrion”) and GOLDFINGER TECHNOLOGIES,

Events of Defaults which may have occurred but which are not specifically referred to on Schedule A. 
 6. Release of Limited
Guaranty. Upon satisfaction of the Conditions Subsequent set forth in Section 10 of this Amendment, Agent shall release Sunrise Capital from the terms and conditions of that certain Limited Guaranty executed by Sunrise Capital in favor of
