in the Exhibits or other Schedules hereto, capitalized terms have the meanings given to such terms
in the Definitions Schedule. The Definitions Schedule also provides meanings for certain other
phrases used in this Agreement (whether or not capitalized). Each term defined in the singular
shall be interpreted in a collective manner when used in the plural, and each term defined in the

ARTICLE 2. THE LOANS.


2.1. Revolving Credit; Revolving Credit Note. Subject to the terms and conditions of this
Agreement and as long as no Default or Event of Default then exists, on Borrower’s request prior to
the Revolving Credit Termination Date Lender shall lend to Borrower under a revolving credit
facility (the “Revolving Credit”) a principal sum (the “Borrowing Capacity”) equal to the lesser of
(a) TWELVE MILLION AND 00/100 DOLLARS ($12,000,000.00) (the “Revolving Credit Limit”), or (b) the
Borrowing Base. The maximum principal amount of any Advance shall not exceed an amount equal to
the amount of the Borrowing Capacity less the aggregate amount of all Obligations relating to the
Revolving Credit then outstanding. Within the limits of the Borrowing Capacity, and subject to
terms and conditions of this Agreement, prior to the Revolving Credit Termination Date Borrower may
borrow, repay and reborrow the principal amount of the Revolving Credit. Borrower’s obligation to
pay the principal of, and interest on, Advances made to Borrower and the Revolving Credit shall be
evidenced by an Authenticated promissory note in form and content acceptable to Lender in its sole
discretion (the “Revolving Credit Note”). Borrower acknowledges and agrees that to the extent any
portion of the Revolving Credit will be made available to Borrower under any sublimit described in
the Revolving Credit Sublimit Schedule (each, a “Sublimit”), such Sublimit shall be subject to the
terms and conditions of this Agreement applicable to the Revolving Credit and to the additional
terms and conditions contained in the Revolving Credit Sublimit Schedule applicable to such
Sublimit.



2.1.A. Term Loan. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement Lender shall extend to
Borrower a term loan in a maximum original principal amount equal to FOUR MILLION AND 00/100
DOLLARS ($4,000,000.00) (the “Term Loan”). The Term Loan shall be subject to the terms and
conditions of this Agreement and shall be subject to such additional terms and conditions contained
in an Authenticated promissory note in form and content acceptable to Lender delivered by Borrower
to Lender evidencing Borrower’s obligation to pay the principal of, and interest on, the Term Loan
(the “Term Note”). Prior to the Maturity Date of the Term Loan Borrower may prepay the outstanding
principal amount of the Term Loan, in whole or in part. Each prepayment of the principal amount of
the Term Loan shall be in a minimum aggregate principal amount of Ten Thousand and 00/100 Dollars
($10,000.00) or in a larger multiple of Five Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($5,000.00). Each
prepayment of principal of the Term Loan shall also be subject to the requirements of Section 3.7.



2.2. Conditions To Loans and Advances. Lender’s obligation to make any Loan or Advance under this
Agreement is subject to the following conditions precedent: after giving effect to such Loan or
Advance (a) that as of the date of such Loan or Advance, no Default or Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing; (b) that the representations set forth in ARTICLE 5 and in the other
Loan Documents shall be true and complete on and as of the date of such Loan or Advance; and (c)
that on and as of the date of such Loan or Advance Borrower shall have complied with all covenants
and agreements set forth in ARTICLE 6, ARTICLE 7 and ARTICLE 8 and in the other Loan Documents.
Borrower’s acceptance of each Loan or Advance under this Agreement shall constitute a confirmation
by Borrower, as of the date of such Loan or Advance, after giving effect to such Loan or Advance
(i) of the accuracy and completeness of the representations set forth in ARTICLE 5 and in the other
Loan Documents, (ii) of Borrower’s satisfaction of the covenants and agreements set forth in
ARTICLE 6, ARTICLE 7 and ARTICLE 8 and in the other Loan Documents, and (iii) of the absence of any
Default or Event of Default. Borrower shall confirm such matters by delivery to Lender of an
Authenticated “Compliance Certificate” as provided in Section 6.4 and Section 6.5, and if requested
by Lender by delivery of a Compliance Certificate with any “Notice of Borrowing” (as described in
Section 2.5) requesting an Advance.



2.3. Overadvances. Lender shall not be required to make any Advance at any time in a principal
amount that would, when aggregated with the principal amount of Advances then outstanding, exceed
the Borrowing Capacity. If the Obligations of Borrower incurred under the Revolving Credit exceed
the Borrowing Capacity for any reason (the amount of such excess to be referred to as an
“Overadvance”), then (a) such Overadvance will constitute an Advance for purposes of this
Agreement, (b) payment of such Overadvance will be secured by the Collateral, (c) Borrower shall
immediately repay the amount of such Overadvance without notice or demand by Lender, and (d) Lender
may in Lender’s sole discretion refrain from making any additional Advances until the Overadvance
has been repaid to Lender in full. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in
no event shall Advances of the Revolving Credit exceed the Revolving Credit Limit.



2.4. Reserves. Lender may at any time establish one or more reserves (“Reserves”) under the
Revolving Credit in Lender’s sole discretion. A Reserve may limit the Borrowing Capacity, reduce
the Borrowing Base (by reduction of an advance rate set forth in the Borrowing Base or otherwise),
or otherwise restrict Borrower’s ability to borrow under the Revolving Credit. Lender shall
endeavor to notify Borrower promptly after the establishment of any Reserve; provided, however,
under no circumstance shall the delivery or receipt of any such notice constitute a condition to
Lender’s establishment of any Reserve. Lender shall establish a Reserve for dilution of Accounts
Receivable (the “Dilution Reserve”) in an amount equal to seven and eight tenths percent (7.8%) of
Borrower’s aggregate Accounts Receivable. Following the Initial Field Exam and after each
subsequent field examination or audit Lender shall review the Dilution Reserve and adjust the
Dilution Reserve based on the results of such examination or audit as Lender deems appropriate in
Lender’s sole discretion.



2.5. Manner of Revolving Credit Borrowing; Notice of Borrowing. Borrower shall request each
Advance by delivering an Authenticated Notice of Borrowing in the form of Exhibit A (a “Notice of
Borrowing”) to Lender (a) by facsimile, or (b) by electronic transmission including, without
limitation, e-mail. Borrower must verify Lender’s receipt of each Notice of Borrowing by telephone
confirmation, or upon Borrower’s request by Borrower’s receipt of confirming e-mail from Lender.
Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Lender shall deliver the amount of the
Advance requested in the Notice of Borrowing for credit to any account of Borrower (other than a
payroll account) at a bank in the United States of America as Borrower may specify by wire transfer
of immediately available funds (i) on the same day if the Notice of Borrowing is received by Lender
on or before 11 a.m. Eastern Time on a Banking Day, or (ii) on the immediately following Banking
Day if the Notice of Borrowing is received by Lender after 11 a.m. Eastern Time on a Banking Day,
or is received by Lender on any day that is not a Banking Day. Lender shall charge to the
Revolving Credit Lender’s usual and customary fees for the wire transfer of each Advance.



2.6. Collections.



(a) Borrower shall open a lockbox (the “Lockbox”) with a financial institution acceptable to
Lender (the “Depository Bank”) pursuant to documents with the Depository Bank that are in form and
content acceptable to Lender. Borrower shall instruct all Account debtors to forward all payments
of Receivables by check to the Lockbox and shall instruct all Account Debtors paying Receivables by
wire transfer or other electronic payments to make such payments to the Blocked Account. Borrower
shall require each customer making a payment of a Receivable by check or other instrument to make
such check or instrument payable to the order of (i) Borrower, or (ii) Lender, or (iii) Borrower
and Lender jointly. Collected funds in the Lockbox shall be deposited into an account with the
Depository Bank established by Lender and subject to Lender’s sole dominion and control (including,
but not limited to the sole power of withdrawal) (the “Blocked Account”). The agreement(s)
relating to the Blocked Account between Lender, the Depository Bank and Borrower shall be in form
and content satisfactory to Lender.



(b) All Proceeds of Collateral received by Borrower, including cash, checks, drafts, notes,
acceptances or other forms of payment, and whether Proceeds of Receivables, Inventory, insurance
claims or other otherwise, shall be received by Borrower in trust for Lender. Borrower shall
deliver all Proceeds of Collateral in Borrower’s possession to the Blocked Account immediately
after receipt, in precisely the form received (except for the endorsement or assignment of Borrower
where necessary).



(c) Borrower shall cause Persons processing or collecting any credit card payments or Proceeds
of Receivables on behalf of Borrower to deliver such payments or Proceeds to the Blocked Account
promptly, but not less frequently than once every week.



2.7. Crediting of Funds. Each Banking Day Lender shall withdraw available funds from the Blocked
Account, deposit such funds in the Settlement Account, and credit available funds received in the
Settlement Account to the payment of the Obligations. Lender shall credit to the payment of the
Obligations any other form of funds received by Lender in the Settlement Account for which Lender
has received notice that such funds are collected and available to Lender (i) on the same day of
Lender’s receipt of such notice if such notice is received by Lender on or before 2 p.m. Eastern
Time on a Banking Day, and (ii) on the Banking Day immediately following Lender’s receipt of such
notice if such notice is received by Lender after 2 p.m. Eastern Time on a Banking Day, or if such
notice is received by Lender on a day that is not a Banking Day. In the absence of an Event of
Default, all funds credited to the repayment of the Obligations will be applied in the following
order:



(a) to reimburse Lender and/or Issuing Lender, as the case may be, for any L/C Disbursements
(or portion thereof) that remain outstanding and unpaid, and to any unpaid interest, fees and
expenses in connection therewith;



(b) to unpaid fees and expenses;



(c) to unpaid interest;



(d) if then due and payable, to the outstanding and unpaid principal balance of the Term Loan;



(e) the outstanding principal balance of the Revolving Credit (including, but not limited to,
the outstanding principal balance of any Sublimit if then payable); and



(f) to all other Obligations in such order as Lender shall elect.



All funds credited to the payment of the Obligations are conditional upon final payment to Lender
in cash or solvent credits of the items giving rise to such funds. If any item credited to the
payment of the Obligations is not paid to Lender or payment thereof is rescinded or required to be
returned by Lender, the amount of any credit given for such item shall be charged to the balance of
the Obligations whether or not the item is returned. For the purpose of computing interest on the
Obligations, interest shall continue to accrue on the amount of any funds credited to the payment
of the Obligations by Lender for a period of three (3) Banking Days after the date so credited.



2.8. Records of Lender; Accounting. Lender shall maintain Records relating to the Obligations,
Loans and Advances (including schedules maintained electronically) containing such annotations as
Lender deems appropriate, including but not limited to annotations regarding the dates and amounts
of Advances, the principal balance of any Loan, and the dates and amounts of repayments of any
Loans, and shall account to Borrower monthly. In the absence of manifest error each accounting and
Record of any annotations delivered to Borrower shall be conclusive and binding upon Borrower
unless Borrower delivers to Lender written notice of any objection within ten (10) Banking Days of
receipt. If Borrower disputes the accuracy of any accounting or Record, Borrower’s notice shall
specify in detail the particulars of its basis for contending that such accounting or Record is
inaccurate. No failure of Lender to render any accounting, or error by Lender in any accounting,
in its Records or in making any annotation shall affect the obligation of Borrower to pay and
perform the Obligations pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.



2.9. Payment on Revolving Credit Termination Date; Termination of Advances. On the Termination
Date of a Loan Borrower shall pay to Lender in cash the entire outstanding principal balance of
such Loan, plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, plus all fees, costs, expenses and other
amounts payable to Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, plus all other
Obligations payable in connection with such Loan pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents. Lender shall not be obligated to make or continue to extend any Advance to
Borrower under the Revolving Credit after the Revolving Credit Termination Date.



ARTICLE 3. INTEREST AND FEES.


3.1. Interest. Borrower shall pay interest on the principal amount of the Revolving Credit to
Lender until all Obligations with respect to the Revolving Credit have been finally and
indefeasibly paid in cash to Lender and performed in full. Interest shall accrue daily on the
daily unpaid principal amount of the Revolving Credit, and Borrower shall pay interest to Lender
monthly in arrears commencing on the first Banking Day of the calendar month immediately following
the Effective Date and on the first Banking Day of each calendar month thereafter and on the
Revolving Credit Termination Date. The interest rate on the Revolving Credit shall equal:



(a) if no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Revolving Credit
Rate; and



(b) if a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Default Rate.



Borrower shall pay to Lender interest on the outstanding principal amount of the Term Loan at such
rates and at such times as provided in the Term Note until all Obligations with respect to the Term
Loan have been finally and indefeasibly paid to Lender in cash and performed in full



Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, in no event
shall any interest paid to Lender on the Loans exceed an amount that would cause the interest rate
on the Loans to exceed the maximum rate permitted by applicable law. Any amount of interest paid
to Lender that is finally and irrevocably determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to exceed
the maximum interest payable on the Loans under applicable law shall be, at Lender’s sole
discretion, applied to the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Credit, any fees, expenses
or other amounts payable hereunder, or returned by Lender to Borrower promptly thereafter.



3.2. Facility Fee. Borrower shall pay to Lender a fee (the “Facility Fee”) equal to the sum of:



(a) Annually with respect to the Revolving Credit, three quarters of one percent (0.75%) of
the maximum principal amount of the Revolving Credit until all Obligations with respect to the
Revolving Credit are finally and indefeasibly paid in cash to Lender and performed in full;
plus



(b) Monthly with respect to the Term Loan, an amount equal to Two Thousand and 00/100 Dollars
($2,000.00) until all Obligations with respect to the Term Loan are finally and indefeasibly paid
in cash to Lender and performed in full.



The portion of the Facility Fee payable in connection with the Term Loan shall be paid in advance
on the first day of each calendar month. Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the portion of the
Facility Fee payable in connection with the Revolving Credit shall be earned in full on the
Effective Date and on first (1st) day of each subsequent Contract Year. In the absence
of the occurrence and continuation of an Event of Default the portion of the Facility Fee payable
in connection with the Revolving Credit shall be paid in twelve (12) equal monthly installments, in
advance, on the first day of each calendar month. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default and
written notice by Lender, or on the Revolving Credit Termination Date, Borrower shall immediately
pay to Lender the portion of the Facility Fee payable annually in connection with the Revolving
Credit remaining unpaid for the then-current Contract Year. The Facility Fee shall be
appropriately adjusted during any Contract Year in which the maximum principal amount of any Loan
is increased.



3.3. Collateral Management Fee. Borrower shall pay to Lender a monthly collateral management fee
(the “Collateral Management Fee”) in an amount equal to One Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($1,000.00
Dollars). The Collateral Management Fee shall be earned in full on the Effective date and on the
first (1st) day of each calendar month until the date the Obligations have been finally
and indefeasibly paid in cash to Lender and performed in full. The Collateral Management Fee shall
be paid in arrears commencing on the first Banking Day of the calendar month immediately following
the Effective Date and on the first Banking Day of each calendar month thereafter. Upon occurrence
and during the continuation of a Default or Event of Default, the monthly Collateral Management Fee
shall equal Two Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($2,000.00).



3.4. Commitment Fee. On or before the Effective Date Borrower shall have paid to Lender (in one or
more payments) a Commitment Fee equal to One Hundred Twenty Thousand and 00/100 Dollars
($120,000.00), which Commitment Fee Lender acknowledges Borrower has paid.



3.5. Field Examination Fees; Appraisals. Borrower shall be liable for and promptly reimburse
Lender for all fees, costs and expenses associated with periodic field examinations and appraisals
of Collateral performed by Lender and/or Lender’s agents, all as deemed necessary by Lender in its
reasonable discretion. Prior to the occurrence of a Default or Event of Default in no event shall
Borrower be liable for or reimburse Lender for such fees, costs or expenses to the extent Lender
performs more than four (4) field examination or appraisals in any calendar year. Borrower
acknowledges and agrees that following a Default or Event of Default Borrower shall be liable for
and shall reimburse Lender for all fees, costs and expenses of all field examinations and
appraisals conducted by Lender and/or its agents, without limit and regardless of the number of
field examinations or appraisals conducted by Lender or its agents in any calendar year.



3.6. Late Document Fee. Borrower shall pay to Lender a fee of One Hundred Fifty and 00/100 Dollars
($150.00) per document per calendar day for each document, instrument or report required to be
delivered to Lender pursuant to ARTICLE 6 of this Agreement that is overdue.



3.7. Liquidated Damages. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Borrower shall
have the right (a) prior to July 31, 2019 to prepay the outstanding principal amount of the Term
Loan in whole or in part, or (b) prior to the July 31, 2019 to prepay in full the entire
outstanding principal balances of the Revolving Credit and the Term Loan, all accrued and unpaid
interest thereon, all fees, costs, expenses and other amounts payable to Lender in connection with
the Revolving Credit and the Term Loan, and all other Obligations payable to Lender under this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Borrower’s election to prepay the Term Loan in whole or in
part, or election to prepay the Obligations relating to the Revolving Credit and the Term Loan in
full shall be delivered to Lender in writing (a “Principal Reduction Notice”) at least sixty (60)
calendar days’ prior to the date of such prepayment. A Principal Reduction Notice shall be
irrevocable when delivered to Lender, and if all Obligations relating to the Revolving Credit are
finally and indefeasibly paid to Lender in connection with such Principal Reduction Notice, the
Revolving Credit and the Term Loan shall be terminated and all obligations of Lender to extend
credit to Borrower under the Revolving Credit shall terminate.



If (w) prior to July 31, 2019 Borrower prepays the principal amount of the Term Loan in whole or in
part pursuant to the foregoing paragraph, (x) prior to July 31, 2019 Borrower prepays in full the
entire outstanding principal balances of the Revolving Credit and the Term Loan, all accrued and
unpaid interest thereon, all fees, costs, expenses and other amounts payable to Lender in
connection with the Revolving Credit and the Term Loan, and all other Obligations payable to Lender
under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents pursuant to the foregoing paragraph, or (y)
pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, and prior to July 31, 2019,
either (I) Lender demands repayment of the outstanding Obligations in whole or in part, or (II)
repayment of the outstanding Obligations are otherwise accelerated in whole or in part, then (z) at
the time of such repayment, prepayment, demand or acceleration, and in addition to the principal
balance(s) of the Loan(s) being prepaid, all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, all fees, costs,
expenses and other amounts payable to Lender in connection with the Loans, and all other
Obligations paid to Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents required to be paid at
such time, Borrower shall pay liquidated damages to Lender in an amount equal to the product of (i)
and (ii) below:




(i) the sum of (A) if prepayment, repayment, demand or acceleration of the Term
Loan in whole or in part, the outstanding principal amount of the Term Loan being
prepaid, plus (B) if prepayment, repayment, demand or acceleration of the
Revolving Credit, the Revolving Credit Limit;



multiplied by




(ii) (A) five percent (5.00%) if such prepayment, repayment, demand or acceleration
occurs on or prior to December 31, 2015, (B) three percent (3.00%) if such prepayment,
repayment, demand or acceleration occurs after December 31, 2015 but on or prior to
December 31, 2016, (C) two percent (2.00%) if such prepayment, repayment, demand or
acceleration occurs after December 31, 2016 but on or prior to December 31, 2017, and
(D) one percent (1.00%) if such prepayment, repayment, demand or acceleration occurs
after December 31, 2017.



Borrower acknowledges and agrees that it would be difficult or impractical to calculate Lender’s
actual damages from early termination of the Revolving Credit and Lender’s compensation from Loans
hereunder following such early termination, the liquidated damages provided above are intended to
be fair and reasonable approximations of such damages, and that the liquidated damages are not
intended to be penalties.



ARTICLE 4. COLLATERAL AND SECURITY INTEREST.


4.1. Grant of Security Interest. As security for the final and indefeasible payment to Lender in
cash and performance of the Obligations in full, Borrower hereby pledges to Lender, and grants to
Lender a continuing general lien upon and security interest in and to the Collateral. Borrower
acknowledges and agrees that Collateral securing any purchase money security interest in favor of
Lender also secures all non-purchase money security interests in favor of Lender.



4.2. Nature of Security Interest. The pledge, lien and security interest granted to Lender shall
continue in full force and effect until the Obligations have been finally and indefeasibly paid to
Lender in cash and performed in full, notwithstanding the termination of any other Loan Document
(in whole or in part), the termination of Lender’s obligations to extend credit to Borrower under
this Agreement or any other Loan Document, the full or partial termination (whether by prepayment,
demand or acceleration) of any Loan, or that the Revolving Credit may from time to time be
temporarily in a credit position. Any balances to the credit of Borrower in the possession of
Lender, and any other Property or assets of Borrower in the possession of Lender, shall be held by
Lender as Collateral, and applied in whole or partial satisfaction of the Obligations when due,
subject to the terms of this Agreement.



4.3. Perfection and Protection of Security Interest.



(a) Borrower will execute and deliver to Lender security agreements, assignments (including,
without limitation, assignments of specific Accounts, Receivables, Certificates of title, Chattel
paper, Documents, Instruments, Goods, Inventory, Equipment and General intangibles), control
agreements, mortgages, deeds of trust, collateral assignments, and other documents and instruments
as Lender may at any time reasonably request to establish, attach, perfect, or protect any security
interest, pledge, lien, charge, mortgage or other encumbrance granted to Lender. Borrower
authorizes Lender to file all financing statements (including, without limitation, describing the
Collateral as “all assets” or “all personal property,” whether owned or hereafter acquired), and
all continuations or amendments thereof, to establish, attach, perfect or protect any security
interest, pledge, lien, charge, mortgage or other encumbrance granted to Lender in the Collateral.
Borrower agrees that subject to Borrower’s rights under Section 9-509(d)(2) of the UCC, Borrower is
not and shall not be authorized to file any financing statement or amendment, termination or
corrective statement with respect to any financing statement filed by Lender, or with respect to
any continuation or amendment thereof, without the prior written consent of Lender unless Lender
has failed to comply with Section 9-513(c) of the UCC.



(b) Borrower will perform any and all actions requested by Lender in Lender’s sole discretion
to establish, attach, perfect or protect any security interest, pledge, lien, charge, mortgage or
other encumbrance of Lender in Inventory, including without limitation, placing and maintaining
signs, appointing custodians, maintaining stock Records and transferring Inventory to warehouses.
Upon Lender’s request, Borrower shall record Lender’s security interest on any Certificate of title
for any Collateral that is a motor vehicle. Borrower hereby appoints Lender, and Lender’s
designee(s), as Borrower’s attorney-in-fact (i) to execute and deliver notices of lien, financing
statements, assignments, and any other documents, instruments, notices, and agreements necessary
for the establishment, attachment, perfection or protection of any security interest, pledge, lien,
charge, mortgage or other encumbrance of Lender in any Collateral, (ii) to endorse the name of
Borrower on any checks, notes, drafts or other forms of payment or security consisting of
Collateral that may come into the possession of Lender or any Affiliate of Lender, (iii) following
the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, to sign Borrower’s name on
invoices or bills of lading, drafts against customers, notices of assignment, verifications and
schedules relating to Collateral, (iv) following the occurrence and during the continuation of an
Event of Default (A) to notify the Post Office authorities to change the address of delivery of
mail to an address designated by Lender, and (B) to open and dispose of mail addressed to Borrower,
and (v) generally, to do all things necessary to carry out the purposes and intent of this
Agreement. The powers granted herein, being coupled with an interest, are irrevocable, and
Borrower approves and ratifies all acts of the attorney(s)-in-fact consistent with the foregoing.
Neither Lender nor any attorney(s)-in-fact shall be liable for any act or omission, error in
judgment or mistake of law so long as the same does not constitute gross negligence or willful
misconduct of Lender, as determined in a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent
jurisdiction.



(c) Borrower shall cooperate with, and take such actions as required by, Lender in obtaining
waivers or subordinations in favor of Lender as Lender may require from third parties having any
interest in any Collateral and Borrower shall cooperate with, and take such actions as required by,
Lender in obtaining “control” of Collateral consisting of Deposit accounts, electronic Chattel
paper, Investment property, or Letter-of-credit rights as provided in Sections 9-104 through 9-107,
inclusive, of the UCC. If any Inventory is in the possession or control of any third party other
than a purchaser in the ordinary course of business or a public warehouseman where the warehouse
receipt is in the name of or held by Borrower, Borrower shall notify such person of each security
interest, pledge, lien, charge, mortgage or other encumbrance of Lender therein and instruct such
person or persons to hold such Inventory for the account and benefit of Lender and subject to
Lender’s instructions. Borrower will deliver to Lender warehouse receipts covering any Inventory
located in warehouses showing Lender as the beneficiary thereof and will also cooperate with Lender
in obtaining from warehousemen and bailees agreements relating to the release of warehouseman’s and
bailee’s liens on Inventory as Lender may request.



4.4. Limited License. Regardless of whether Lender’s security interests in and to any of the
General intangibles has attached or is perfected, until the Obligations have been finally and
indefeasibly paid to Lender in cash and performed in full, Borrower hereby irrevocably grants to
Lender a royalty-free, non-exclusive license to use Borrower’s General intangibles, including all
trademarks, copyrights, patents and other proprietary and intellectual property rights, labels,
patents, copyrights, rights of use of any name, trade secrets, trade names, trademarks and
advertising matter, and any Property of a similar nature, as it pertains to the Collateral in
connection with the (a) advertisement for, and sale or other disposition of, any finished goods
Inventory by Lender in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, (b) manufacture, assembly,
completion, preparation and advertising for sale or other disposition of any unfinished Inventory
by Lender in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, (c) sale, lease, license or other
disposition of Collateral by Lender in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, and
Borrower’s rights under all licenses and any franchise, sales, distribution and supply agreements
shall inure to Lender’s benefit for such purposes.



4.5. Rights of Lender as Secured Party. At all times prior to the final and indefeasible payment
to Lender in cash and performance of the Obligations in full, Lender shall have, in addition to all
other rights and remedies of Lender under this Agreement (a) all rights and remedies granted to a
Secured party in the UCC, and (b) all rights and remedies with respect to Collateral granted to
Lender under the other Loan Documents, and (c) all rights and remedies of Lender with respect to
the Collateral available under applicable law. Upon terms, conditions, agreements, documents and
instruments acceptable to Lender in Lender’s reasonable discretion pursuant to which Borrower shall
establish financing for Borrower’s Receivables from Account Debtors domiciled outside of the United
States (“Foreign Receivables”), Lender shall release Foreign Receivables so financed from Lender’s
security interest in the Collateral granted pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and the other
Loan Documents; provided, that, notwithstanding any release of Foreign Receivables pursuant to the
foregoing, Lender shall not be deemed to have released any other Collateral, and no such release
shall otherwise impair any rights or remedies granted to Lender pursuant to this Agreement, any
other Loan Document, or the UCC with respect to the Collateral.



4.6. Communication with Account Debtors. Borrower authorizes Lender, at any time and without
notice to or the consent of Borrower, to communicate directly with customers of Borrower and
Account debtors of Borrower by whatever means Lender shall elect for the purpose of verifying
information supplied by Borrower to Lender with respect to Receivables pursuant to this Agreement.
Upon Lender’s request at any time Borrower shall provide Lender with a list of the addresses,
telephone and facsimile numbers of its Account debtors.



4.7. Confirmatory Written Assignments. Upon Lender’s request, promptly after the creation of any
Receivable Borrower shall execute and deliver a confirmatory written assignment to Lender of such
Receivable. Borrower’s failure to execute or deliver any such assignment shall not affect or limit
any security interest or lien or other right of Lender in and to such Receivable.



4.8. Lender’s Right to Perform Borrower’s Obligations. In the event that Debtor shall fail to
purchase or maintain insurance, or to pay any tax, assessment, charge or levy of any Governmental
Unit, except as the same may be otherwise permitted hereunder, or in the event that any lien,
charge, encumbrance or security interest on any Collateral not specifically permitted by the terms
of this Agreement shall not be paid in full or discharged, or in the event that Debtor shall fail
to perform or comply with any other covenant, promise or Obligation to Lender hereunder or under
any other Loan Document, Lender may, but shall not be required to, perform, pay, satisfy, discharge
or bond the same for the account of Debtor, and all monies so paid by Lender, including reasonable
attorneys’ fees and expenses incurred by Lender in connection therewith, shall be treated as an
Advance.

all rights and remedies granted to Lender as a Secured party in the UCC, upon the occurrence and
during the continuation of an Event of Default:



(a) Notification of Account Debtors. (i) Lender may notify Account debtors of Lender’s
security interest in and to Accounts and Receivables and direct Account debtors to make payment
directly to Lender without notice to, consent of, or any other action by Borrower, or (ii)
Borrower, at the request of Lender, shall notify Account debtors of Lender’s security interest in
Borrower’s Accounts and Receivables and direct Account debtors to make payment directly to Lender.
Borrower hereby authorizes Account debtors to make payments directly to Lender and to rely on
notice from Lender without further inquiry. Lender may on Borrower’s behalf endorse all items of
payment received by Lender that are payable to Borrower for the purposes described above.



(b) Collections; Modifications of Terms. Lender may but shall be under no obligation
to (i) notify all appropriate parties that the Collateral, or any part thereof, has been assigned
to Lender; (ii) demand, sue for, collect and give receipts for and take all necessary or desirable
steps to collect any Collateral or Proceeds in its or Borrower’s name, and apply any such
collections against the Obligations as Lender may elect; (iii) take control of any Collateral and
any cash and non-cash Proceeds of any Collateral; (iv) enforce, compromise, extend, renew settle or
discharge any rights or benefits of Borrower with respect to or in and to any Collateral, or deal
with the Collateral as Lender may deem advisable; and (v) make any compromises, exchanges,
substitutions or surrenders of Collateral Lender deems necessary or proper in its reasonable
discretion, including without limitation, extending the time of payment, permitting payment in
installments, or otherwise modifying the terms or rights relating to any of the Collateral, all of
which may be effected without notice to, consent of, or any other action of Borrower and without
otherwise discharging or affecting the Obligations, the Collateral or the security interests
granted to Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document.



(c) Insurance. Lender may file proofs of loss and claim with respect to any of the
Collateral with the appropriate insurer, and may endorse in its own and Borrower’s name any checks
or drafts constituting Proceeds of insurance. Any Proceeds of insurance received by Lender may be
applied by Lender against payment of all or any portion of the Obligations as Lender may elect in
its reasonable discretion.



(d) Possession and Assembly of Collateral. Lender may take possession of the
Collateral and/or without removal render Borrower’s Equipment unusable. Upon Lender’s request,
Borrower shall assemble the Collateral and make it available to Lender at a place or places to be
designated by Lender that is reasonably convenient to Lender and Borrower.



(e) Set-off. Lender may and without any notice to, consent of or any other action by
Borrower (such notice, consent or other action being expressly waived), set-off or apply (i) any
and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held by or
for the account of Lender, and/or (ii) any Indebtedness at any time owing by Lender or any
Affiliate of Lender or any participant in the Loans to or for the credit or the account of
Borrower, to the repayment of the Obligations irrespective of whether any demand for payment of the
Obligations has been made.



(f) Disposition of Collateral.




(i) Sale, Lease, etc. of Collateral. Lender may, without demand, advertising or
notice, all of which Debtor hereby waives (except as the same may be required by the UCC
or other applicable law), at any time or times in one or more public or private sales or
other dispositions, for cash, on credit or otherwise, at such prices and upon such terms
as are commercially reasonable (within the meaning of the UCC) (A) sell, lease, license
or otherwise dispose of any and all Collateral, and/or (B) deliver and grant options to
a third party to purchase, lease, license or otherwise dispose of any and all
Collateral. Lender may sell, lease, license or otherwise dispose of any Collateral in
its then-present condition or following any preparation or processing deemed necessary
by Lender in its reasonable discretion. Lender may be the purchaser at any such public
or private sale or other disposition of Collateral, and in such case Lender may make
payment of all or any portion of the purchase price therefor by the application of all
or any portion of the Obligations due to Lender to the purchase price payable in
connection with such sale or disposition. Lender may, if it deems it reasonable,
postpone or adjourn any sale or other disposition of any Collateral from time to time by
an announcement at the time and place of the sale or disposition to be so postponed or
adjourned without being required to give a new notice of sale or disposition; provided,
however, that Lender shall provide Debtor with written notice of the time and place of
such postponed or adjourned sale or disposition. Borrower hereby acknowledges and
agrees that Lender’s compliance with any requirements of applicable law in connection
with a sale, lease, license or other disposition of Collateral will not be considered to
adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale, lease, license or other
disposition of such Collateral.




(ii) Application of Disposition Proceeds. Borrower shall be obligated for, and the
Proceeds of any sale, lease, license or other disposition of Collateral pursuant to this
paragraph (f) shall be applied (A) first to the costs of retaking, holding, preparing
for disposition, processing, and disposing of Collateral, including the fees and
disbursements of attorneys, auctioneers, appraisers, consultants and accountants
employed by Lender in connection with the foregoing, and then (B) to the payment of the
Obligations in whatever order Lender may elect. Borrower shall remain liable for all
amounts of the Obligations remaining unpaid as a result of any deficiency of the
Proceeds of the sale, lease, license or other disposition of Collateral after such
Proceeds are applied as provided in the foregoing sentence. Lender shall pay any
Proceeds of the sale, lease, license or other disposition of Collateral remaining after
application as provided in clause (A) and (B), above, in accordance with the applicable
provisions of the UCC.




(iii) Warranties; Sales on Credit. Lender may sell, lease, license or otherwise
dispose of the Collateral without giving any warranties and may specifically disclaim
any and all warranties, including but not limited to warranties of title, possession,
merchantability and fitness. Debtor hereby acknowledges and agrees that Lender’s
disclaimer of any and all warranties in connection with a sale, lease, license or other
disposition of Collateral will not be considered to adversely affect the commercial
reasonableness of any such disposition of the Collateral. If Lender sells, leases,
licenses or otherwise disposes of any of the Collateral on credit, Borrower will be
credited only with payments actually made by the recipient of such Collateral and
received by Lender and applied to the Obligations. If any Person fails to pay for
Collateral acquired pursuant this this paragraph (f) on credit, Lender may re-offer the
Collateral for sale, lease, license or other disposition.



(g) Election of Remedies for Non-Collateral Property. Notwithstanding Lender’s
security interest in and to the Collateral, to the extent that the Obligations are now or are
hereafter secured by any Property other than the Collateral, or by the guaranty, endorsement,
assets or Property of any other Person, Lender shall have the right in Lender’s sole discretion to
determine which rights, security, liens, security interests and/or remedies Lender may at any time
pursue, foreclose upon, relinquish, subordinate, modify or take any other action with respect to,
without in any way impairing, modifying or affecting any of Lender’s other rights, security, liens,
security interests or remedies with respect to such Property, or any of Lender’s rights or remedies
under this Agreement or any other Loan Document.



(h) Lender’s Obligations. Borrower agrees that Lender shall not have any obligation
to preserve rights to any Collateral against prior parties or to marshal any Collateral of any kind
for the benefit of any other creditor of Borrower or any other Person. Lender shall not be
responsible to Borrower for loss or damage resulting from Lender’s failure to enforce its security
interests or collect any Collateral or Proceeds or any monies due or to become due under the
Obligations or any other liability or obligation of Borrower to Lender.



(i) Waiver of Rights by Borrower. Except as may be otherwise specifically provided in
this Agreement, Borrower waives, to the extent permitted by law, all bonds, security or sureties
required by any Governmental Rule or otherwise as an incident to Lender’s taking of possession of,
or sale, lease, license or other disposition of, any Collateral. Borrower authorizes Lender, upon
the occurrence of an Event of Default to enter upon any premises owned by or leased to Borrower
where the Collateral is kept, without obligation to pay rent or for use and occupancy, through self
help, without judicial process and without having first given notice to Borrower or obtained an
order of any court, and peacefully retake possession thereof by securing at or removing same from
such premises.

ARTICLE 10. GENERAL PROVISIONS.


10.1. Amendment and Restatement of Loan and Security Agreement. This Agreement amends and restates
in its entirety, and is given in replacement of and in substitution for, but not in repayment of,
the Loan and Security Agreement between Lender and Borrower dated as of August 19, 2011, as amended
by a First Amendment effective July 23, 2012, by a Second Amendment effective March 11, 2013, by a
Third Amendment effective August 7, 2013, by a Fourth Amendment, Waiver and Consent effective
October 21, 2013, by a Fifth Amendment, Waiver and Consent effective November 14, 2013 and by a
Sixth Amendment effective as of June 30, 2014.



10.2. Construction if Multiple Borrowers. If this Agreement is executed by two (2) or more Persons
as Borrower, each of the undersigned executing this Agreement as Borrower acknowledges and agrees
that:



(a) the obligations of Borrower under this Agreement (including the Obligations) are joint and
several obligations of each of the undersigned. Each of undersigned expressly represents that it
is part of a common enterprise and that any financial accommodations by Lender under this Agreement
and under the other Loan Documents are and will be of direct and indirect interest, benefit and
advantage to the undersigned;



(b) to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the obligations of the undersigned
under this Agreement (including the Obligations) shall not be affected by (i) the failure of Lender
to assert any claim or demand or to enforce or exercise any right or remedy against any of the
undersigned under the provisions of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or otherwise, (ii) any
rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of, or any release from any of the terms or
provisions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or (iii) the failure to perfect any
security interest in, or the release of, any of the Collateral or other security held by or on
behalf of Lender;



(c) the obligations of the undersigned under this Agreement (including the Obligations) shall
not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason (other than
the final and indefeasible payment in cash and performance of the Obligations in full), including
any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise of any of the Obligations, and
shall not be subject to any defense or setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever
by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of any of the Obligations or otherwise.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the obligations of the undersigned under this
Agreement (including the Obligations) shall not be discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by
the failure of Lender to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any remedy under this Agreement,
any other Loan Document or any other agreement, by any waiver or modification of any provision of
any thereof, any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of any of the
Obligations, or by any other act or omission that may or might in any manner or to any extent vary
the risk of any of the undersigned or that would otherwise operate as a discharge of the
undersigned as a matter of law or equity (other than the final and indefeasible payment in cash and
performance in full of all the Obligations on or after the Revolving Credit Termination Date);



(d) To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each of the undersigned waives any
defense based on or arising out of any defense of the undersigned or the unenforceability of the
Obligations or any part thereof from any cause, or the cessation from any cause of the liability of
any other of the undersigned, other than the final and indefeasible payment in cash and performance
in full of all the Obligations and the termination of Lender’s commitment to make Loans hereunder.
Lender may, at its election, foreclose on any security held by one or more of the undersigned by
one or more judicial or non-judicial sales, accept an assignment of any such security in lieu of
foreclosure, compromise or adjust any part of the Obligations, make any other accommodation with
any other of the undersigned, or exercise any other right or remedy available to it against any
other of the undersigned, without affecting or impairing in any way the liability of the
undersigned under this Agreement except to the extent that all the Obligations have been finally
and indefeasibly paid in cash and performed in full and Lender’s commitment to make Loans has been
terminated. Each of the undersigned waives any defense arising out of any such election even
though such election operates, pursuant to applicable law, to impair or to extinguish any right of
reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of the undersigned against any other of the
undersigned, as the case may be, or any security; and



(e) each of the undersigned is obligated to repay and perform the Obligations as joint and
several obligors under this Agreement. Upon payment by any of the undersigned of any Obligations,
all rights of such Person against any of the other undersigned arising as a result thereof by way
of right of subrogation, contribution, reimbursement, indemnity or otherwise shall in all respects
be subordinate and junior in right of payment to the prior final and indefeasible payment to Lender
in cash and performance of all the Obligations in full and the termination of Lender’s commitment
to make Loans. In addition, any Indebtedness of any of the undersigned now or hereafter held by any
other of the undersigned is hereby subordinated in right of payment to the prior indefeasible
payment to Lender in cash and performance of the Obligations in full and each of the undersigned
will not demand, sue for or otherwise attempt to collect any such Indebtedness.



10.3. Rights and Remedies Cumulative. Lender’s rights and remedies under this Agreement
(specifically including all rights and remedies of Lender under 0) shall be cumulative and not
alternative or exclusive, irrespective of any other rights or remedies that may be available to
Lender under any other Loan Document, by operation of law or otherwise, and may be exercised by
Lender at such time or times and in such order as Lender in Lender’s sole discretion may determine,
and are for the sole benefit of Lender. Lender’s failure to exercise or delay in exercising any
right or remedy shall not (a) preclude Lender from exercising such right or remedy thereafter, (b)
preclude Lender from exercising any other right or remedy of Lender, or (c) result in liability to
Lender or Lender’s Affiliates or their respective members, managers, shareholders, directors,
officers, partners, employees, consultants or agents.



10.4. Reinstatement. The agreements, covenants, liabilities and obligations of Borrower set forth
in this Agreement (including, but not limited to, the final and indefeasible payment to Lender in
cash and performance of the Obligations in full) shall continue to be effective, or be reinstated,
as the case may be, if at any time any payment in respect of the Obligations is rescinded or must
otherwise be restored or returned by Lender by reason of any bankruptcy, reorganization,
arrangement, composition or similar proceeding or as a result of the appointment of a receiver,
intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, Borrower or any other Person, or
any Property of Borrower or any other Person, or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been
made.



10.5. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement is entered into for the benefit of the parties hereto
and their successors and assigns and shall be binding upon the parties, their successors and
assigns. Lender shall have the right, without the necessity of any consent, authorization or other
action by Borrower, to sell, hypothecate, assign, securitize or grant participations in all or a
portion of Lender’s interest in the Loans and the Loan Documents to other financial institutions or
other entities of Lender’s choice and on such terms as are acceptable to Lender in Lender’s sole
discretion. Borrower shall not assign, exchange or otherwise hypothecate any rights, liabilities
or obligations under this Agreement, in whole or in part, without the prior written consent of
Lender, which consent may be granted or withheld in Lender’s sole discretion, and any attempted
assignment, exchange or hypothecation without Lender’s written consent shall be void and be of no
effect.



10.6. Notice. Wherever this Agreement provides for notice to any party (except as expressly
provided to the contrary), it shall be given by messenger, facsimile, certified U.S. mail with
return receipt requested, or nationally recognized overnight courier with receipt requested,
effective when either received or receipt rejected by the party to whom addressed, and shall be
addressed as provided in the Disclosure Schedule, or to such other address as the party affected
may hereafter designate.



10.7. Strict Performance. The failure by Lender at any time to require Borrower’s strict
compliance with or performance of any provision of this Agreement shall not waive, affect, impair
or diminish any right of Lender thereafter to demand Borrower’s strict compliance with and
performance of such provision. Any suspension or waiver by Lender of any Default or Event of
Default shall not suspend, waive or affect any other Default or Event of Default, whether the same
is prior or subsequent to such suspension or waiver and whether of the same or a different type.



10.8. Waiver. Borrower waives presentment, protest, notice of dishonor and notice of protest with
respect to any Document or Instrument on or for which it may be liable to Lender as maker,
endorser, guarantor or otherwise (including but not limited to this Agreement and each Note).



10.9. Construction of Agreement. The parties hereto agree that the terms, provisions and language
of this Agreement were the result of negotiations between the parties, and, as a result, there
shall be no presumption that any ambiguities in this Agreement shall be resolved against either
party. Any controversy over the construction of this Agreement shall be decided without regard to
events of authorship or negotiation.



10.10. Expenses; Taxes.



(a) Borrower shall reimburse Lender for all expenses incurred by Lender in connection with the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, including, without
limitation, fees in connection with any bank account, the Lockbox, the Blocked Account, wire
charges, automatic clearing house fees and other similar costs and expenses incurred by Lender in
carrying out the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.



(b) If, at any time or times prior or subsequent to the Effective Date, regardless of whether
or not a Default or an Event of Default then exists or any of the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement are concluded, Lender employs counsel for advice or other representation, incurs legal
fees or expenses, consulting fees or expenses, fees, costs or expenses of external professionals
engaged by Lender, or other out-of-pocket costs or expenses in connection with: (i) the exercise
of any right or remedy of Lender described in this Agreement or any other Loan Document; (ii) the
negotiation and preparation of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any amendment,
modification or restatement of this Agreement or any other Loan Document; (iii) the administration
of this Agreement or any other Loan Document and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby;
(iv) periodic field exams or audits and appraisals performed by Lender; (v) any litigation,
contest, dispute, suit, proceeding or action (whether instituted by Lender, Borrower or any other
Person) in any way relating to the Collateral, this Agreement or any other Loan Document or
Borrower’s business or affairs; (vi) the establishment, attachment, perfection or protection of any
security interest or lien on the Collateral; (vii) any attempt to enforce any right or remedy of
Lender against Borrower or any other Person who may be obligated to Lender by virtue of this
Agreement or any other Loan Document including, without limitation, Account debtors; or (viii) any
attempt to inspect, verify, protect, preserve, restore, collect, sell, lease, license, liquidate or
otherwise dispose of or realize upon the Collateral; then, in any such event, all reasonable
attorneys’ fees arising from such services and all expenses, costs and charges of such counsel, all
fees, costs, expenses and charges of consultants and professionals engaged by Lender, and all other
costs and out-of-pocket expenses of Lender relating to any of the events or actions described above
shall be payable by Borrower to Lender, and shall be additional Obligations under this Agreement
secured by the Collateral.



(c) Additionally, if any tax, levy or charge (including any intangibles tax, stamp tax or
recording tax) shall be imposed upon or payable by Lender in connection with the execution or
delivery of this Agreement, or the execution, delivery, issuance or recording of any other Loan
Document, or the creation of any of the Obligations under this Agreement (i) Borrower will pay (or
will promptly reimburse Lender for the payment of) all such taxes, levies and charges including,
but not limited to, any interest and penalties thereon, (ii) following receipt of notice from
Lender regarding the claim for payment of, or imposition of, any such tax, levy or charge, with the
consent of Lender, which consent may not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, Borrower
shall have the right, at its own cost and expense, to contest the imposition of such tax, levy or
charge, and with the consent of the Lender, which consent may not be unreasonably withheld,
conditioned or delayed, to compromise or settle such claim for such tax, levy or charge and pay the
same following such compromise or settlement, and (iii) in any circumstance described in clause (i)
or (ii) above, Borrower will indemnify, defend and hold Lender harmless from and against any
liability in connection therewith.



(d) Borrower’s obligations under this Section 10.10 shall survive termination of the Loans and
the termination of this Agreement.



10.11. Reimbursements Charged to Revolving Credit. With respect to any amount paid by Lender and
required to be reimbursed by Borrower pursuant to the provisions of Section 10.10, Borrower agrees
that Lender may charge any such amount to the Revolving Credit on the date such payment is made.



10.12. Marketing and Advertising. Borrower hereby authorizes and gives permission for Lender and
Lender’s Affiliates to use the legal or fictional company name, logo, trademark and/or personal
quotes in connection with promotional materials that Lender may disseminate to the public relating
to Lender’s relationship with Borrower. Promotional materials may include, but are not limited to,
brochures, video tapes, emails, internet websites, advertising in newspapers and/or other
periodicals, lucites, pictures and photographs. Lender shall provide each Borrower with a copy of
promotional materials prepared by Lender or Lender’s Affiliates prior to making such promotional
materials available to the public.



10.13. Waiver of Right to Jury Trial. Borrower and Lender recognize that in matters related to the
Loans and/or this Agreement and/or the other Loan Documents, and as each may be subsequently
modified and/or amended, either party may be entitled to a trial in which matters of fact are
determined by a jury (as opposed to a trial in which such matters are determined by a judge,
magistrate, referee or other elected or appointed decider of facts). By executing this Agreement,
and as specifically provided below, Lender and Borrower waive their respective right to a trial by
jury. Borrower and Lender each hereby expressly acknowledges that this waiver is entered into to
avoid delays, minimize trial expenses, and streamline the legal proceedings in order to accomplish
a quick resolution of claims arising under or in connection with this Agreement, the other Loan
Documents, the Loan(s), the Note(s) and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.



(a) WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT NOT PROHIBITED BY LAW, BORROWER AND LENDER
EACH HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT THAT BORROWER OR LENDER MAY
HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT TO ANY LITIGATION, ACTION, SUIT OR PROCEEDING, DIRECTLY OR
INDIRECTLY, AT ANY TIME ARISING OUT OF, UNDER, OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT, ANY LOAN, ANY
NOTE, ANY LOAN DOCUMENT OR ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT, BEFORE OR AFTER
MATURITY.



(b) CERTIFICATIONS. BORROWER HEREBY CERTIFIES THAT NEITHER ANY REPRESENTATIVE NOR AGENT OF
LENDER NOR LENDER’S COUNSEL HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, OR IMPLIED THAT LENDER WOULD
NOT, IN THE EVENT OF ANY LITIGATION, ACTION SUIT OR PROCEEDING, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING
WAIVER. BORROWER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT LENDER HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE
TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND
CERTIFICATION HEREIN.



10.14. Indemnification by Borrower. Borrower hereby covenants and agrees to indemnify, defend
(with counsel selected by Lender) and hold harmless Lender, Lender’s Affiliates and their
respective servicers, members, managers, directors, shareholders, officers, partners, employees,
attorneys, consultants and agents (collectively, the “Indemnitees”) from and against any and all
claims, damages, liabilities, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, actual and
reasonable attorney’s fees and expenses and other costs of investigation or defense, including
those incurred upon any appeal), which may be incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee
(whether for breach of contract, in tort or under any other theory of liability) in connection with
or as a result of credit having been extended, suspended or terminated under this Agreement or the
other Loan Documents or with respect to the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance or
administration of, or in any other way arising out of relating to, this Agreement or the other Loan
Documents or any other documents or transactions contemplated by or referred to in this Agreement,
or any action or failure to act with respect to any of the foregoing, including any and all product
liabilities, environmental liabilities, taxes and legal costs and expenses arising out of or
incurred in connection with disputes between or among any parties to and of the Loan Documents, the
correctness, validity or genuineness of any Instrument or Document that may be released or endorsed
to Borrower by Lender (which shall automatically be deemed to be without recourse to Lender in any
event), the existence, character, quantity, quality, condition, value or delivery of any Goods
purporting to be represented by any such Instruments or Documents, or any broker’s commission,
finder’s fee or similar charge or fee payable by Borrower in connection with the Loans and the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement (collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”), except
to the extent that any such Indemnified Liability is determined by a court of competent
jurisdiction in a final non-appealable judgment to have resulted solely from such Indemnitee’s
gross negligence or willful misconduct. BORROWER, FOR ITSELF AND FOR ALL SUCCESSORS, ASSIGNS,
THIRD PARTY BENEFICIARIES AND ALL OTHER PERSONS THAT MAY ASSERT CLAIMS DERIVATIVELY THROUGH SUCH
PARTY, HEREBY WAIVES ANY AND ALL CLAIMS FOR INDEMNIFIED LIABILITIES AGAINST ALL INDEMNITEES EXCEPT
TO THE EXTENT THAT ANY SUCH INDEMNIFIED LIABILITY IS DETERMINED BY A COURT OF COMPETENT
JURISDICTION IN A FINAL, NON-APPEALABLE JUDGMENT TO HAVE RESULTED SOLELY FROM SUCH INDEMNITEE’S
GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT. NO INDEMNITEE SHALL BE RESPONSIBLE OR LIABLE TO BORROWER,
ANY SUCCESSOR, ASSIGNEE OR THIRD PARTY BENEFICIARY OR ANY OTHER PERSON ASSERTING CLAIMS
DERIVATIVELY THROUGH SUCH PARTY, FOR ANY ACT OR FAILURE TO ACT UNDER ANY POWER OF ATTORNEY OR FOR
INDIRECT PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES THAT MAY BE ALLEGED AS A RESULT OF CREDIT
HAVING BEEN EXTENDED, SUSPENDED OR TERMINATED UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR AS
A RESULT OF ANY OTHER TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREUNDER OR THEREUNDER. THE PROVISIONS OF THIS
SECTION 10.14 SHALL SURVIVE TERMINATION OF THE LOANS AND THE TERMINATION OF THIS AGREEMENT.



10.15. Savings Clause for Indemnification. To the extent that Borrower’s undertaking to indemnify,
pay and hold harmless set forth in Section 10.14 above may be unenforceable because it violates any
law or public policy, Borrower shall contribute the maximum portion which it is permitted to pay
and satisfy under applicable law to the payment and satisfaction of all matters referred to under
Section 10.14.



10.16. Lender’s Performance. Lender shall not be responsible for any failure of any Advance to be
credited to any account of Borrower (i) if such failure is caused by conditions beyond Lender’s
control including, but not limited to Acts of God, restrictions of Governmental Units (including
the denial or cancellation of any necessary license, registration or permit), wars, insurrections,
or interruptions of telephone service or internet access caused by a service provider or resulting
from the failure of a service provider’s equipment, software or personnel, and (ii) if such failure
is not caused by or due to an event, occurrence or condition described in clause (i) immediately
above, unless such failure is caused by or due to Lender’s gross negligence or willful misconduct
as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable judgment.



10.17. Entire Agreement; Amendments; Lender’s Consent. This Agreement (including the Schedules and
Exhibits) constitutes the entire agreement between Lender and Borrower with respect to the subject
matter hereof, and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous agreements, understandings, inducements
or conditions between Lender and Borrower, whether express or implied, oral or written, with
respect to the subject matter hereof. No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement,
nor consent to any departure by Borrower therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same
shall be Authenticated by Lender in a Record, and then such amendment, waiver or consent shall be
effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given.



10.18. Cross Default; Cross Collateralization. Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that (a)
each other Loan Document and agreement between Borrower and Lender is hereby amended, to the extent
necessary, to provide that a Default or an Event of Default under this Agreement is a default or
event of default, respectively, under each such Loan Document or agreement, and a default or event
of default under any Loan Document or agreement between Borrower and Lender is a Default or an
Event of Default, respectively, under this Agreement, and (b) the Collateral secures the payment to
Lender and performance of the Obligations in full, whether now or hereafter outstanding under all
other Loan Documents and agreements between Borrower and Lender, and that the Collateral and any
other Property of any other Person pledged to Lender in connection with the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement under any other Loan Document or agreement with Lender secures the
payment to Lender and performance of the Obligations in full.



10.19. Execution in Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts,
each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together
shall constitute but one and the same instrument.



10.20. Severability of Provisions. Any provision of this Agreement or any of the other Loan
Documents that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction,
be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the
remaining provisions of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or affecting the validity or
enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.



10.21. Governing Law; Consent To Jurisdiction.



(a) THIS AGREEMENT WAS NEGOTIATED IN THE STATE OF NEW YORK, AND MADE BY LENDER AND ACCEPTED BY
BORROWER IN THE STATE OF NEW YORK, AND THE PROCEEDS OF EACH NOTE DELIVERED PURSUANT HERETO WERE AND
ARE DISBURSED FROM THE STATE OF NEW YORK. THE PARTIES AGREE THAT THE STATE OF NEW YORK HAS A
SUBSTANTIAL RELATIONSHIP TO THE PARTIES AND TO THE UNDERLYING TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS
AGREEMENT, AND IN ALL RESPECTS, INCLUDING MATTERS OF CONSTRUCTION, VALIDITY AND PERFORMANCE, THIS
AGREEMENT, THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER AND
THEREUNDER SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE INTERNAL LAW OF THE STATE OF
NEW YORK APPLICABLE TO CONTRACTS MADE AND PERFORMED ENTIRELY IN SUCH STATE WITHOUT TO ITS
PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAWS THAT WOULD RESULT IN A GOVERNING LAW OTHER THAN THE LAW OF THE
STATE OF NEW YORK, EXCEPT THAT AT ALL TIMES THE PROVISIONS FOR THE CREATION, PERFECTION, AND
ENFORCEMENT OF THE LIENS AND SECURITY INTERESTS CREATED PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT AND PURSUANT TO
THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED ACCORDING TO THE UCC. TO THE FULLEST
EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, LENDER AND BORROWER HEREBY UNCONDITIONALLY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVE ANY CLAIM
TO ASSERT THAT THE LAW OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTION GOVERNS THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY NOTE ISSUED BY
BORROWER TO LENDER IN CONNECTION HEREWITH.



(b) ANY LEGAL SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING AGAINST LENDER OR BORROWER ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING
TO THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE INSTITUTED IN THE SOLE OPTION OF LENDER IN ANY FEDERAL OR STATE COURT
LOCATED IN WESTCHESTER COUNTY, NEW YORK, OR ERIE COUNTY, NEW YORK PURSUANT TO SECTION 5-1402 OF THE
NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW; HOWEVER, LENDER MAY, AT ITS OPTION, COMMENCE ANY ACTION, SUIT OR
PROCEEDING IN ANY OTHER APPROPRIATE FORUM OR JURISDICTION TO OBTAIN POSSESSION OF OR FORECLOSE UPON

effect in a jurisdiction other than the State of New York, then the term “UCC” shall mean the
Uniform Commercial Code as enacted and in effect in such other jurisdiction solely for the purposes
