**Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.**

*Loan Agreement*

On March 10, 2023, Grove Collaborative Holdings, Inc., a Delaware public benefit corporation ("Holdings" or "the Company") and Grove Collaborative, Inc., a Delaware public benefit corporation ("Grove"), as borrowers (Holdings and Grove, collectively, the "Borrowers") entered into that certain Loan and Security Agreement (the "Loan Agreement"), among the Borrowers, each of the Subsidiaries of the Borrowers signatory thereto from time to time as guarantors and Siena Lending Group LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, as lender (in such capacity, the "Lender").

Among other things, the Loan Agreement provides for a senior secured asset-based revolving credit facility with an initial commitment of $35.0 million (the "Revolving Credit Facility"). The Revolving Credit Facility matures on the earlier of (a) March 10, 2026 and (b) the date on which the obligations under the Borrowers' term loan facility are due and payable or repaid in full. The interest rates applicable to borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility are based on a fluctuating rate of interest measured by reference to either, at the Borrowers' option, (i) a base rate, plus an applicable margin, or (ii) the Term SOFR rate then in effect, plus 0.10% and an applicable margin. The applicable margin for Revolving Credit Facility borrowings is based on the Borrowers' monthly average principal balance outstanding and ranges from 2.75% to 4.50% per annum in the case of base rate borrowings and 3.75% to 5.50% per annum in the case of Term SOFR borrowings.

The Borrowers' obligations under the Loan Agreement may be accelerated or the commitments terminated upon the occurrence of an event of default under the Loan Agreement, which includes payment events of default, breaches in the performance of certain affirmative and negative covenants, the inaccuracy of representations or warranties, bankruptcy and insolvency related events of default, events of default arising in connection with changes in control and other customary events of default. The Revolving Credit Facility contains a subjective acceleration clause in the event that the Lender determines that a material adverse change has or will occur within the business, operations, or financial condition of the Borrowers or a material impairment of the prospect of repaying any portion of this financial obligation. We believe the likelihood that the Lender would exercise the subjective acceleration clause is remote.

The foregoing description of the Loan Agreement is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the of the Loan Agreement, a copy of which is included as Exhibit 10.1 hereto, and the terms of which are incorporated herein by reference.

**Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition.**

On March 14, 2022, the Company issued a press release announcing its earnings for the quarter and fiscal year ended December 31, 2022. A copy of such press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference. A slide presentation, which includes supplemental information relating to the Company's fourth quarter and fiscal year 2022 earnings, is furnished as Exhibit 99.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.

The information provided pursuant to this Item 2.02, including Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2 attached hereto, is being furnished to the Securities and Exchange Commission and shall not be deemed "filed" for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that Section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference into any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.

**Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)**Revolving Loans and Letters of Credit.** Subject to the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement, including Sections 1.4 and 1.6, Lender shall, from time to time prior to the Maturity Date, at Borrowing Agent's request, (i) make revolving loans to Borrowers ("***Revolving Loans***"), and (ii) make, or cause or permit a Participant to make, letters of credit ("***Letters of Credit***") available to Borrowers; ***provided***, that after giving effect to each such Revolving Loan and each such Letter of Credit, (A) the outstanding principal balance of all Revolving Loans and the Letter of Credit Balance will not exceed the lesser of (x) the Maximum Revolving Facility Amount, ***minus*** Reserves and (y) the Borrowing Base, and (B) none of the other Loan Limits for Revolving Loans will be exceeded. All Revolving Loans shall be made in and repayable in Dollars.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)**Minimum Revolving Loan Balance**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.2Reserves regarding Revolving Loans / Letters of Credit.** Lender may, from time to time establish and modify reserves against the Borrowing Base and/or the Maximum Revolving Facility Amount in such amounts and of such types as Lender deems appropriate in its Permitted Discretion ("***Reserves***") ***provided****,* that, the amount of any Reserves established by Lender shall have a reasonable relationship to the event, condition, other circumstance or fact that is the basis for such Reserve or such change. Such Reserves shall be available for Borrowing Agent to view in Passport 6.0 simultaneously with the imposition thereof; ***provided***, that, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Lender shall provide email notice advising Borrowing Agent of such Reserves two (2) Business Days prior to the imposition of such Reserves (during which period (x) Lender shall be available to discuss any such proposed Reserves with the Borrowing Agent to afford the Borrowing Agent an opportunity to take such action as may be required so that the event, condition or circumstance that is the basis for such Reserve no longer exists in the manner and to the extent satisfactory to the Lender in its Permitted Discretion and (y) Borrowers may not obtain any new Revolving Loan or Letter of Credit to the extent that, after giving pro forma effect to such proposed Reserves, such Revolving Loan or Letter of Credit would cause the outstanding principal balance of all Revolving Loans and the Letter of Credit Balance to exceed the lesser of (a) the Maximum Revolving Facility Amount *minus* Reserves and (b) the Borrowing Base). Without limiting the foregoing, references to Reserves shall include the Dilution Reserve. In no event shall the establishment of a Reserve in respect of a particular actual or contingent liability obligate Lender to make advances to pay such liability or otherwise obligate Lender with respect thereto.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.3Protective Advances.** Any contrary provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document notwithstanding, Lender is hereby authorized by Borrowers at any time during the existence of a Default or an Event of Default, regardless of (a) whether any of the other applicable conditions precedent set forth in Section 1.6 hereof have not been satisfied or the commitment of Lender to make

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)**Mandatory Prepayment of Inventory Insurance Proceeds.** Borrowers shall be required to prepay the unpaid principal balance of the Revolving Loans within three (3) Business Days following the date of each and every Prepayment Event (and within five (5) Business Days following any date thereafter on which proceeds pertaining thereto are received by any Loan Party), in each case without any demand or notice from Lender or any other Person, all of which is hereby expressly waived by Borrowers, in the amount of 100% of the proceeds (net of documented reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the collection of such proceeds, in each case payable to Persons that are not Affiliates of any Loan Party) received by any Loan Party with respect to such Prepayment Event.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)**Maturity Date Payments / Cash Collateral.** All remaining outstanding monetary Obligations (including, all accrued and unpaid fees described in the Fee Letter) shall be payable in full on the Maturity Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.10Reversal of Payments.** To the extent that any payment or payments made to or received by Lender pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside, or required to be repaid to any trustee, receiver or other Person under any state, federal or other bankruptcy or other such applicable law, then, to the extent thereof, such amounts (and all Liens, rights and remedies therefor) shall be revived as Obligations (secured by all such Liens) and continue in full force and effect under this Agreement and under the other Loan Documents as if such payment or payments had not been received by Lender.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**2.1 Interest.** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)All Loans and other monetary Obligations shall bear interest at the interest rate(s) set forth in Section 3 of Schedule A, and accrued interest shall be payable (a) on the first day of each month in arrears, (b) upon a prepayment of such Loan in accordance with Section 1.8, and (c) on the Maturity Date; ***provided***, that after the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, at Lender's election, all Loans and other monetary Obligations shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to two (2) percentage points in excess of the rate otherwise applicable thereto (the "***Default Rate***"), and all such interest shall be payable on demand. Changes in the interest rate shall be effective as of the date

4874-2581-2044v.13

**Loan and Security Agreement**

of any change in the Base Rate or Term SOFR, as applicable. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, Loans shall bear interest at Term SOFR or, following issuance by Borrowing Agent of the related Interest Rate Election Notice or under the circumstances set forth in Section 2.1(d), the Base Rate; ***provided***, that (i) Borrowers may, upon five (5) Business Days' written notice to Lender, elect that all outstanding Loans and Obligations shall bear interest at Term SOFR, or if Borrowers have previously elected that all Loans shall bear interest at Term SOFR, Borrowers may, upon five (5) Business Days' written notice to Lender, elect that all outstanding Loans and Obligations shall bear interest at the Base Rate (the notices described in this clause (i) are referred to herein as an "***Interest Rate Election Notice***"), (ii) Borrowers may not deliver more than four (4) Interest Rate Election Notices in any fiscal year and (iii) any election for all Loans and Obligations to bear interest at Term SOFR (or the Base Rate) shall only be effective upon the first day of the month after delivery of an Interest Rate Election Notice.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)Any Term SOFR Loans shall bear interest at Term SOFR for a period commencing on the first day of a calendar month and ending on the last day of such calendar month (the "***Interest Period***") unless and until converted to Loans bearing interest at the Base Rate in accordance with <u>Section 2.1(a)</u>, above or <u>Section 2.1(c)</u>, <u>Section 2.1(d)</u> or <u>Section 2.1(e)</u> below.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)Term SOFR may be adjusted by Lender on a prospective basis to take into account any increased costs due to changes in applicable law occurring subsequent to the commencement of the then applicable interest period (other than changes in tax laws, which shall be governed by <u>Section 1.9</u> and <u>Section 9.1</u>) and changes in the reserve requirements imposed by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (or any successor), which additional or increased costs would increase the cost of maintaining loans under this Agreement bearing interest based upon Term SOFR. In any such event, Lender shall give Borrowers notice of such a determination and adjustment and, upon its receipt of the notice from Lender, Borrowers may, by notice to Lender (A) require Lender to furnish to Borrowers a statement setting forth the basis for adjusting Term SOFR and the method for determining the amount of such adjustment or (B) repay the portion of the Loans bearing interest based upon Term SOFR with respect to which such adjustment is made. Upon any such repayment, Borrowers shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so repaid, together with any additional amounts required pursuant to the Fee Letter.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d)If Lender determines that any law has made it unlawful, or that any governmental authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for Lender or its applicable lending office to maintain any Loan with interest determined by reference to Term SOFR, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon Term SOFR, then, upon notice thereof by Lender to Borrowers, any obligation of Lender to maintain any Term SOFR Loan shall be suspended until Lender notifies Borrowers that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, Borrowers shall, upon demand from Lender, convert the Term SOFR Loans to loans bearing interest at the Base Rate, either on the last day of the applicable Interest Period, if Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Term SOFR Loans to such day, or immediately, if Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Term SOFR Loans until Lender determines that it is no longer illegal for Lender to determine or charge interest rates based upon Term SOFR. Upon any such conversion, Borrowers shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so converted, together with any additional amounts required pursuant to the Fee Letter.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Loan Documents, but without limiting <u>Section 2.1(d)</u> above, if Lender determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto absent manifest error), that:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i)adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining Term SOFR for any interest period because Term SOFR is not available or published on a current basis and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii)the SOFR Administrator or a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over Lender has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which Term SOFR shall no longer be made available, or used for determining the interest rate of loans; ***provided***, that, at the time of such statement, there is no successor administrator that is satisfactory to Lender, that will continue to provide Term SOFR after such specific date (such specific date, the "**Scheduled Unavailability Date**"); or

then, reasonably promptly after such determination by Lender, Lender may amend this Agreement to replace Term SOFR with (A) the Base Rate, or (B) if administratively feasible and acceptable to Lender in its sole discretion (1) one or more other SOFR-Based Rates or (2) another alternate benchmark rate giving due consideration to any evolving or then existing convention for similar U.S. dollar denominated syndicated credit facilities for such alternative benchmarks and, in each case, including any mathematical or other adjustments to such benchmark giving due consideration to any evolving or then existing convention for similar U.S. dollar denominated syndicated credit facilities for such benchmarks (such as the margin applicable thereto) which adjustment or method for calculating such adjustment shall be published on an information service as selected by Lender from time to time in its reasonable discretion and may be periodically updated (the "**Adjustment**"; and any such proposed rate, a "**Term SOFR Successor Rate**"). Any such amendment shall become effective at 5:00 p.m. on the fifth Business Day after Lender shall have posted such proposed amendment to Borrowers. Such Term SOFR Successor Rate shall be applied in a manner consistent with market practice; ***provided***, that to the extent such market practice is not administratively feasible for Lender, such Term SOFR Successor Rate shall be applied in a manner as otherwise reasonably determined by Lender. If no Term SOFR Successor Rate has been determined and the circumstances under clause (<u>e</u>)(<u>i</u>) above exist or the Scheduled Unavailability Date has occurred (as applicable), the Lender will promptly so notify Borrowers. Thereafter, the obligation of the Lender to make or maintain Term SOFR Loans shall be suspended (to the extent of the affected Term SOFR Loans or Interest Period). Upon receipt of such notice, Borrowers may revoke any pending request for a borrowing of Term SOFR Loans (to the extent of the affected Term SOFR Loans or interest period) or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a Loans bearing interest at the Base Rate in the amount specified therein. In connection with the implementation of a Term SOFR Successor Rate, Lender will have the right to make Term SOFR Successor Rate Conforming Changes from time to time in consultation with Borrowers (in each case, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing) and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Term SOFR Successor Rate Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement.

Anything to the contrary contained herein notwithstanding, Lender is not required actually to match fund any Obligation as to which interest accrues based on Term SOFR.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**2.2 &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Fees.** Borrowers shall jointly and severally pay Lender the fees set forth in the Fee Letter on the dates set forth therein, which fees are in addition to all fees and other sums payable by Borrowers or any other Person to Lender under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document, and, in each case are not refundable once paid.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**2.3&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Computation of Interest and Fees.** All interest and fees shall be calculated daily based on the actual number of days elapsed in a year of 360 days.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**2.4 Loan Account; Monthly Accountings.** Lender shall maintain a loan account for Borrowers reflecting all outstanding Loans and the Letters of Credit Balance, along with interest accrued thereon and such other items reflected therein (the "***Loan Account***"), and shall provide Borrowing Agent with a monthly accounting reflecting the activity in the Loan Account, viewable by Borrowing Agent on Passport 6.0. Each accounting shall be deemed correct, accurate and binding on Borrowers and an account stated (except for reverses and reapplications of payments made and corrections of errors discovered by Lender), unless Borrowing Agent notifies Lender in writing to the contrary within thirty (30) days after such account is rendered, describing the nature of any alleged errors, omissions or undocumented expenses. However, Lender's failure to maintain the Loan Account or to provide any such accounting shall not affect the legality or binding nature of any of the Obligations. Interest, fees and other monetary Obligations due and owing under this Agreement (including fees and other amounts paid by Lender to issuers of Letters of Credit) may, in Lender's discretion, be charged to the Loan Account, and will thereafter be deemed to be Revolving Loans and will bear interest at the same rate as other Revolving Loans.

**Loan and Security Agreement**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**2.5 Further Obligations; Maximum Lawful Rate.** With respect to all monetary Obligations for which the interest rate is not otherwise specified herein (whether such Obligations arise hereunder or under any other Loan Document, or otherwise), such Obligations shall bear interest at the rate(s) in effect from time to time with respect to the applicable Loan to which such Obligations relate and shall be payable upon demand by Lender. In no event shall the interest charged with respect to any Loan or any other Obligation exceed the maximum amount permitted under applicable law. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or elsewhere, if at any time the rate of interest payable or other amounts hereunder or under any other Loan Document (the "***Stated Rate***") would exceed the highest rate of interest or other amount permitted under any applicable law to be charged (the "***Maximum Lawful Rate***"), then for so long as the Maximum Lawful Rate would be so exceeded, the rate of interest and other amounts payable shall be equal to the Maximum Lawful Rate; ***provided***, that if at any time thereafter the Stated Rate is less than the Maximum Lawful Rate, Borrowers shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, continue to pay interest and such other amounts at the Maximum Lawful Rate until such time as the total interest and other such amounts received is equal to the total interest and other such amounts which would have been received had the Stated Rate been (but for the operation of this provision) the interest rate payable or such other amounts payable. Thereafter, the interest rate and such other amounts payable shall be the Stated Rate unless and until the Stated Rate again would exceed the Maximum Lawful Rate, in which event this provision shall again apply. In no event shall the total interest or other such amounts received by Lender exceed the amount which it could lawfully have received had the interest and other such amounts been calculated for the full term hereof at the Maximum Lawful Rate. If, notwithstanding the prior sentence, Lender has received interest or other such amounts hereunder in excess of the Maximum Lawful Rate, such excess amount shall be applied to the reduction of the principal balance of the Loans or to other Obligations (other than interest) payable hereunder, and if no such principal or other Obligations are then outstanding, such excess or part thereof remaining shall be paid to Borrowers. In computing interest payable with reference to the Maximum Lawful Rate applicable to any Lender, such interest shall be calculated at a daily rate equal to the Maximum Lawful Rate divided by the number of days in the year in which such calculation is made.

**3. SECURITY INTEREST GRANT / POSSESSORY COLLATERAL / FURTHER ASSURANCES.**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**3.1&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Grant of Security Interest.** To secure the full payment and performance of all of the Obligations and subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, each Loan Party hereby collaterally assigns to Lender and grants to Lender a continuing security interest in the following property of such Loan Party, whether tangible or intangible, real or personal, now or hereafter owned, existing, acquired or arising and wherever now or hereafter located, and whether or not eligible for lending purposes: (a) all Accounts (whether or not Eligible Investment Grade Accounts or Eligible Non-Investment Grade Accounts) and all Goods whose sale, lease or other disposition by such Loan Party has given rise to Accounts and have been returned to, or repossessed or stopped in transit by, such Loan Party; (b) all Chattel Paper (including tangible and Electronic Chattel Paper), Instruments, Documents (including negotiable documents), and General Intangibles (including all patents, patent applications, trademarks, trademark applications, trade names, trade secrets, goodwill, copyrights, copyright applications, registrations, licenses, software, franchises, customer lists, tax refund claims, claims against carriers and shippers, guarantee claims, contracts rights, payment intangibles, security interests, security deposits and rights to indemnification); (c) all Inventory (whether or not Eligible Inventory); (d) all Goods (other than Inventory), including Equipment, Farm Products, Health-Care-Insurance Receivables, vehicles, and Fixtures; (e) all Investment Property, including, without limitation, all rights, privileges, authority, and powers of such Loan Party as an owner or as a holder of Pledged Equity, including, without limitation, all economic rights, all control rights, authority and powers, and all status rights of such Loan Party as a member, equity holder or shareholder, as applicable, of each Issuer; (f) all Deposit Accounts, Securities Accounts, bank accounts, deposits and cash; (g) all Letter-of-Credit Rights; (h) all Commercial Tort Claims listed in Section 40 of the Information Certificate(s); (i) all Supporting Obligations; (j) all real property interests (including leaseholds, mineral rights, timber, etc.); and (k) all additions and accessions to, substitutions for, and replacements, products and Proceeds of the foregoing property, including proceeds of all insurance policies insuring the foregoing property, and all of such Loan Party's books and records relating to any of the foregoing and to such Loan Party's business.

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, if any Borrower or any other Loan Party refuses or fails to execute or deliver any reasonably requested Additional Documents within a reasonable period of time following the request to do so, each Borrower and each other Loan Party hereby authorizes Lender to execute any such Additional Documents in the applicable Loan Party's name and authorizes Lender to file such executed Additional Documents in any appropriate filing office.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)Each Loan Party shall, at its own cost and expense, promptly and duly take, execute, acknowledge and deliver (and/or use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such other applicable Person to take, execute, acknowledge and deliver) all such further acts, documents, agreements and instruments as Lender shall deem reasonably necessary in order to (i) carry out the intent and purposes of the Loan Documents and the transactions contemplated thereby, (ii) establish, create, preserve, protect and perfect a first priority lien (subject only to Permitted Liens) in favor of Lender in all Collateral (wherever located) from time to time owned by the Loan Parties, (iii) cause each Loan Party to guarantee all of the Obligations, all pursuant to documentation that is in form and substance satisfactory to Lender in its Permitted Discretion and (iv) facilitate the collection of the Collateral.

Prior to opening any Deposit Account used for Collections (as defined below) (other than a Deposit Account constituting a Restricted Account) after the Closing Date, Borrowers shall first notify Lender and not deposit any funds or securities into such account until such account is subject to a Control Agreement in favor of Lender, whereupon, Section 39 of the Information Certificate(s) shall be deemed to be updated to include such new account without the taking of any further action by any party hereto. Each Loan Party will, at its expense, establish (and revise from time to time as Lender may reasonably require) procedures acceptable to Lender, in Lender's Permitted Discretion, for the collection of checks, wire transfers and all other proceeds of all of such Loan Party's Accounts, Inventory and all other Revolving Loan Priority Collateral (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement) (collectively, "***Collections***"), which shall include (a) directing all Account Debtors to send all Account proceeds directly to a post office box designated by Lender either in the name of such Loan Party (but as to which Lender has a perfected first priority security interest and exclusive access) or, at Lender's option, in the name of Lender (a "***Lock Box***"), and/or (b) depositing all Collections received by such Loan Party into one or more bank accounts maintained in the name of such Loan Party and subject to a Control Agreement in favor of Lender (each, a "***Blocked Account***") as to which Lender shall, at its option, have exclusive access during any Cash Dominion Period.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d)FOURTH, to any accrued but unpaid fees owing to Lender under this Agreement and/or any other Loan Documents,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e)FIFTH, to any unpaid accrued interest on the Obligations,

For purposes of determining the Borrowing Base, such amounts will be credited to the Loan Account and the Collateral balances to which they relate upon Lender's receipt of an advice from Lender's Bank that such items have been credited to Lender's account at Lender's Bank (or upon Lender's deposit thereof at Lender's Bank in the case of payments received by Lender in kind), in each case subject to final payment and collection. However, for purposes of computing interest on the Obligations, such items shall be deemed applied by Lender three Business Days after Lender's receipt of advice of deposit thereof at Lender's Bank.

Lender or its designee may, from time to time, after an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing: (a) direct such Account Debtors to make payment thereof directly to Lender; such notification to be sent on the letterhead of such Loan Party and substantially in the form of Exhibit E annexed hereto; or (b) demand, collect or enforce payment of any Accounts and Chattel Paper (but without any duty to do so).

Each Loan Party has, in each case in all material respects, all requisite corporate power and authority to own and operate its properties, to carry on its business as now conducted and as proposed to be conducted, to enter into the Loan Documents to which it is a party and to carry out the transactions contemplated thereby. The execution, delivery and performance by each Loan Party of this Agreement and all of the other Loan Documents to which such Loan Party is a party have been duly authorized, do not violate such Loan Party's Organic Documents, or, except where such violation would not reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Effect, any law or any agreement or instrument or any court order which is binding upon any Loan Party or its property, do not constitute grounds for acceleration of any Indebtedness or obligation under any agreement or instrument which is binding upon any Loan Party or its property, and do not require the consent of any Person, other than any consent that has been obtained and are effective as of the Closing Date. No Loan Party is required to obtain any government approval, consent, or authorization from, or to file any declaration or statement with, any Governmental Authority in connection with or as a condition to the execution, delivery or performance of any of the Loan Documents, other than any filings or actions which have been, or prior to the time when required will have been, obtained, given, filed or taken. This Agreement and each of the other Loan Documents have been duly executed and delivered by, and are enforceable against each of the Loan Parties who have signed them, in accordance with their respective terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by (a) bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws of general applicability affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights and (b) the application of general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law). Section 18 of the Information Certificate(s), as may be amended, sets forth the ownership of Grove. Section 20 of the

**Loan and Security Agreement**

Information Certificate(s), as may be amended, sets forth the ownership of each of Borrowers' Subsidiaries.

Listed in Section 8 of the Information Certificate(s), as may be amended, are all prior names used by each Loan Party at any time in the past five years. As of the date hereof, listed in Section 7 of the Information Certificate(s) are all of the present and prior trade names used by any Loan Party at any time in the past five years.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**5.3&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Title to Collateral; Third Party Locations; Permitted Liens.** Each Loan Party has, and at all times will continue to have, good and marketable title to all of the Collateral. The Collateral now is, and at all times will remain, free and clear of any and all Liens, except for Permitted Liens. Lender now has, and will at all times continue to have, a first-priority perfected and enforceable security interest in all of the Collateral, subject to Permitted Liens, and each Loan Party will at all times defend Lender and the Collateral against all claims of others. Except for warehouses as to which Borrowers shall use commercially reasonable efforts to deliver to Lender a warehouseman's waiver in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender, no Loan Party is or will at any time be a bailor of any Collateral valued in excess of $1,000,000 (other than Collateral consisting of Inventory that is perishable, returned, consigned, obsolete, not sellable, damaged, or defective, or that is comprised of demonstrative or custom inventory, works in progress, or supplies) at any warehouse or otherwise.

Each applicable Loan Party will keep at all times in full force and effect, and will comply in all material respects at all times with all the terms of, any lease of real property where any of the Collateral now or in the future may be located.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**5.4&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Accounts, Chattel Paper and Inventory**.

All such Accounts and Chattel Paper are genuine and in all respects what they purport to be, arise out of a completed, bona fide and unconditional and non-contingent sale and delivery of goods or rendition of services by Borrowers in the ordinary course of its business and in accordance with the terms and conditions of all purchase orders, contracts or other documents relating thereto, and to the knowledge of the Borrowers, each Account Debtor thereunder had the capacity to contract at the time any contract or other document giving rise to such Accounts and Chattel Paper were executed, and the transactions giving rise to such Accounts and Chattel Paper comply in all material respects with all applicable laws and governmental rules and regulations.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)As of each date reported by Borrowers, all Inventory which Borrowers have then reported to Lender as then being Eligible Inventory complies in all respects with the criteria for eligibility set forth in the definition of Eligible Inventory.

Each Plan that is intended to be a qualified plan under Section 401(a) of the Code has received a favorable determination letter or opinion letter from the Internal Revenue Service to the effect that the form of such Plan is qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code and the trust related thereto has been determined by the Internal Revenue Service to be exempt from federal income tax under Section 501(a) of the Code, or an application for such a letter is currently being processed by the Internal Revenue Service. To the best knowledge of each Loan Party, nothing has occurred that would prevent or cause the loss of such tax-qualified status.

Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, this Section 6.2 shall remain operative even after the Termination Date and shall survive the payment in full of all of the Obligations. This Section 6.2 shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any non-Tax claim.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)If, for the purposes of obtaining or enforcing judgment in any court in any jurisdiction with respect to this Agreement or any Loan Document, it becomes necessary to convert into the currency of such jurisdiction (the "***Judgment Currency***") any amount due under this Agreement or under any Loan Document in any currency other than the Judgment Currency (the "***Currency Due***") (or for the purposes of Section 1.7(d)), then, to the extent permitted by applicable law, conversion shall be made at the exchange rate reasonably selected by Lender on the Business Day before the day on which judgment is given (or for the purposes of Section 1.7(d), on the Business Day on which the payment was received by the Lender). In the event that there is a change in such exchange rate between the Business Day before the day on which the judgment is given and the date of receipt by the Lender of the amount due, each Loan Party shall to the extent permitted by applicable law, on the date of receipt by Lender, pay such additional amounts, if any, or be entitled to receive reimbursement of such amount, if any as may be necessary to ensure that the amount received by Lender on such date is the amount in the Judgment Currency which (when converted at such exchange rate on the date of receipt by Lender in accordance with normal banking procedures in the relevant jurisdiction) is the amount then due under this Agreement or such Loan Document in the Currency Due. If the amount of the Currency Due (including any Currency Due for purposes of Section 1.7(c)) which the Lender is so able to purchase is less than the amount of the Currency Due (including any Currency Due for purposes of Section 1.7(c)) originally due to it, each Loan Party shall to the extent permitted by applicable law jointly and severally indemnify and save Lender harmless from and against loss or damage arising as a result of such deficiency.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii)*Deficiency.* Each Loan Party 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 to the Obligations as provided in this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h)**Election of Remedies.** Lender shall have the right in Lender's sole discretion to determine which rights, security, Liens 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 or remedies with respect to such Collateral, or any of Lender's rights or remedies under this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(j)**Waiver of Rights by Loan Parties.** Except as otherwise expressly provided for in this Agreement, to the extent permitted by applicable law, each Loan Party waives: (i) presentment, demand and protest and notice of presentment, dishonor, notice of intent to accelerate, notice of acceleration, protest, default, nonpayment, maturity, release, compromise, settlement, extension or renewal of any or all commercial paper, accounts, contract rights, documents, instruments, chattel paper and guaranties at any time held by Lender on which any Loan Party may in any way be liable, and hereby ratifies and confirms whatever Lender may do in this regard, (ii) all rights to notice and a hearing prior to Lender's taking possession or control of, or to Lender's replevy, attachment or levy upon, the Collateral or any bond or security which might be required by any court prior to allowing Lender to exercise any of its remedies and (iii) the benefit of all valuation, appraisal, marshalling and exemption laws.

**8. LOAN GUARANTY.**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**8.1 Guaranty.** Each Guarantor hereby agrees that it is jointly and severally liable for, and absolutely and unconditionally guarantees to Lender, the prompt payment when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, and at all times thereafter, all of the Obligations of each other Loan Party and all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses paid or incurred by Lender in endeavoring to collect all or any part of the Obligations from, or in prosecuting any action against, any Borrower, any Guarantor of all or any part of the Obligations (and such costs and expenses paid or incurred shall be deemed to be included in the Obligations). Each Guarantor further agrees that the Obligations may be extended or renewed in whole or in part without notice to or further assent from it, and that it remains bound upon its guarantee notwithstanding any such extension or renewal. All terms of this Loan Guaranty apply to and may be enforced by or on behalf of any branch or Affiliate of Lender that extended any portion of the Obligations.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**8.2 Guaranty of Payment.** This Loan Guaranty is a guaranty of payment and not of collection. Each Guarantor waives, to the extent permitted by applicable law, any right to require Lender to sue or otherwise take action against any Borrower, any other Guarantor, or any other Person obligated for all or any part of the Obligations, or otherwise to enforce its payment against any Collateral securing all or any part of the Obligations.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**8.3 No Discharge or Diminishment of Loan Guaranty**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)Except as otherwise expressly provided for herein, the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder are unconditional and absolute and not subject to any reduction, limitation,

**Loan and Security Agreement**

impairment or termination for any reason (other than the occurrence of the Termination Date), including: (i) any claim of waiver, release, extension, renewal, settlement, surrender, alteration, or compromise of any of the Obligations, by operation of law or otherwise; (ii) any change in the corporate existence, structure or ownership of any Borrower or any other Guarantor; (iii) any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or other similar proceeding affecting any Borrower or any other Guarantor, or their assets or any resulting release or discharge of any obligation of any Borrower or any other Guarantor; or (iv) the existence of any claim, setoff or other rights which any Guarantor may have at any time against any Borrower, any other Guarantor, Lender, or any other Person, whether in connection herewith or in any unrelated transactions.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)The obligations of each Guarantor hereunder are not 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, or any provision of applicable law or regulation purporting to prohibit payment by any Borrower or any other Guarantor, of the Obligations or any part thereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)Further, the obligations of any Guarantor hereunder are not discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by: (i) the failure of Lender to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any remedy with respect to all or any part of the Obligations; (ii) any waiver or modification of or supplement to any provision of any agreement relating to the Obligations; (iii) any release, non-perfection, or invalidity of any indirect or direct security for all or any part of the Obligations or all or any part of any obligations of any Guarantor; (iv) any action or failure to act by Lender with respect to any Collateral; or (v) any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the payment or performance of any of the Obligations, or any other circumstance, act, omission or delay that might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of such Guarantor or that would otherwise operate as a discharge of any Guarantor as a matter of law or equity (other than the occurrence of the Termination Date).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**8.4 Defenses Waived.** To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Guarantor hereby waives any defense based on or arising out of any defense of any Guarantor or the unenforceability of all or any part of the Obligations from any cause, or the cessation from any cause of the liability of any Guarantor, other than the defense that the Termination Date has occurred. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Guarantor irrevocably waives acceptance hereof, presentment, demand, protest and, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any notice not provided for herein, as well as any requirement that at any time any action be taken by any Person against any Borrower, or any other Person. Each Guarantor confirms that it is not a surety under any state law and shall not raise any such law as a defense to its obligations hereunder. Lender may, at its election, foreclose on any Collateral held by it by one or more judicial or nonjudicial sales, accept an assignment of any such Collateral in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise act or fail to act with respect to any Collateral, compromise or adjust any part of the Obligations, make any other accommodation with any Borrower or any other Guarantor or exercise any other right or remedy available to it against any Borrower or any other Guarantor, without affecting or impairing in any way the liability of any Guarantor under this Loan Guaranty except to the extent the Termination Date has occurred. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Guarantor waives any defense arising out of any such election even though that election may operate, pursuant to applicable law, to impair or extinguish any right of reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of any Guarantor against any Borrower or any other Guarantor or any security.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**8.5 Rights of Subrogation.** No Guarantor will assert any right, claim or cause of action, including, without limitation, a claim of subrogation, contribution or indemnification that it has against any Borrower or any other Guarantor, or any Collateral, until the Termination Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**8.6 Reinstatement; Stay of Acceleration.** If at any time any payment of any portion of the Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, or reorganization of any Borrower or any other Person, or otherwise, each Guarantor's obligations under this Loan Guaranty with respect to that payment shall be reinstated at such time as though the payment had not been made and whether or not Lender is in possession of this Loan Guaranty. If acceleration of the time for payment of any of the Obligations is stayed upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of

4874-2581-2044v.13

------

**Loan and Security Agreement**

any Borrower, all such amounts otherwise subject to acceleration under the terms of any agreement relating to the Obligations shall nonetheless be payable by the Loan Parties forthwith on demand by Lender. This Section 8.6 shall remain operative even after the Termination Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**8.7 Information.** Each Guarantor assumes all responsibility for being and keeping itself informed of Borrowers' financial condition and assets, and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Obligations and the nature, scope and extent of the risks that each Guarantor assumes and incurs under this Loan Guaranty, and agrees that Lender shall not have any duty to advise any Guarantor of information known to it regarding those circumstances or risks.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**8.8 Termination.** To the maximum extent permitted by law, each Guarantor hereby waives any right to revoke this Loan Guaranty as to future Obligations. If such a revocation is effective notwithstanding the foregoing waiver, each Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that (a) no such revocation shall be effective until written notice thereof has been received by Lender, (b) no such revocation shall apply to any Obligations in existence on the date of receipt by Lender of such written notice (including any subsequent continuation, extension, or renewal thereof, or change in the interest rate, payment terms, or other terms and conditions thereof), (c) no such revocation shall apply to any Obligations made or created after such date to the extent made or created pursuant to a legally binding commitment of Lender, (d) no payment by any Borrower, any other Guarantor, or from any other source, prior to the date of Lender's receipt of written notice of such revocation shall reduce the maximum obligation of any Guarantor hereunder, and (e) any payment, by any Borrower or from any source other than a Guarantor which has made such a revocation, made subsequent to the date of such revocation, shall first be applied to that portion of the Obligations as to which the revocation is effective and which are not, therefore, guarantied hereunder, and to the extent so applied shall not reduce the maximum obligation of any Guarantor hereunder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**8.9 Maximum Liability.** The provisions of this Loan Guaranty are severable, and in any action or proceeding involving any federal or state corporate law or other law governing business entities, or any state, federal or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other law affecting the rights of creditors generally, if the obligations of any Guarantor under this Loan Guaranty would otherwise be held or determined to be avoidable, invalid or unenforceable on account of the amount of such Guarantor's liability under this Loan Guaranty, then, notwithstanding any other provision of this Loan Guaranty to the contrary, the amount of such liability shall, without any further action by the Loan Parties or Lender, be automatically limited and reduced to the highest amount that is valid and enforceable as determined in such action or proceeding (such highest amount determined hereunder being the relevant Guarantor's "***Maximum Liability***"). This Section with respect to the Maximum Liability of each Guarantor is intended solely to preserve the rights of Lender to the maximum extent not subject to avoidance under applicable law, and no Guarantor nor any other Person shall have any right or claim under this Section with respect to such Maximum Liability, except to the extent necessary so that the obligations of any Guarantor hereunder shall not be rendered voidable under applicable law. Each Guarantor agrees that the Obligations may at any time and from time to time exceed the Maximum Liability of each Guarantor without impairing this Loan Guaranty or affecting the rights and remedies of Lender hereunder, ***provided***, that, nothing in this sentence shall be construed to increase any Guarantor's obligations hereunder beyond its Maximum Liability.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**8.10 Contribution.** In the event any Guarantor shall make any payment or payments under this Loan Guaranty or shall suffer any loss as a result of any realization upon any collateral granted by it to secure its obligations under this Loan Guaranty (such Guarantor a "***Paying Guarantor***"), each other Guarantor (each a "***Non-Paying Guarantor***") shall contribute to such Paying Guarantor an amount equal to such Non-Paying Guarantor's "Applicable Percentage" of such payment or payments made, or losses suffered, by such Paying Guarantor. For purposes of this Section 8.10, each Non-Paying Guarantor's "Applicable Percentage" with respect to any such payment or loss by a Paying Guarantor shall be determined as of the date on which such payment or loss was made by reference to the ratio of (a) such Non-Paying Guarantor's Maximum Liability as of such date (without giving effect to any right to receive, or obligation to make, any contribution hereunder) or, if such Non-Paying Guarantor's Maximum Liability has not been determined, the aggregate amount of all monies received by such Non-Paying Guarantor from Borrowers after the date hereof (whether by loan, capital infusion or by other means) to (b) the aggregate Maximum Liability of all Loan Parties hereunder (including such Paying Guarantor) as of such date (without giving effect to any right to receive, or obligation to make, any contribution

**Loan and Security Agreement**

hereunder), or to the extent that a Maximum Liability has not been determined for any Guarantor, the aggregate amount of all monies received by such Loan Parties from Borrowers after the date hereof (whether by loan, capital infusion or by other means). Nothing in this provision shall affect any Guarantor's several liability for the entire amount of the Obligations (up to such Guarantor's Maximum Liability). Each of the Loan Parties covenants and agrees that its right to receive any contribution under this Loan Guaranty from a Non-Paying Guarantor shall be subordinate and junior in right of payment to the payment in full in cash of all of the Obligations. This provision is for the benefit of Lender and the Loan Parties and may be enforced by any one, or more, or all of them in accordance with the terms hereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**8.11 Liability Cumulative.** The liability of each Guarantor under this Section 8 is in addition to and shall be cumulative with all liabilities of each Guarantor to Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which such Guarantor is a party or in respect of any obligations or liabilities of the other Loan Parties, without any limitation as to amount, unless the instrument or agreement evidencing or creating such other liability specifically provides to the contrary.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Loan Parties hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall to the extent permitted by applicable laws be made free and clear of and without reduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law. If, however, applicable laws require the Loan Parties to withhold or deduct any Tax (as determined in the good faith discretion of the applicable Loan Party), such Tax shall be withheld or deducted in accordance with such laws as the case may be, upon the basis of the information and documentation to be delivered pursuant to clause (e) below.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)If any Loan Party shall be required by applicable law to withhold or deduct any Taxes from any payment, then (i) such Loan Party shall withhold or make such deductions as are required based upon the information and documentation it has received pursuant to clause (e) below, (ii) such Loan Party shall timely pay the full amount withheld or deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with the applicable law, and (iii) to the extent that the withholding or deduction is made on account of Indemnified Taxes, the sum payable by the Loan Parties shall be increased as necessary so that after any required withholding or the making of all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such withholding or deduction been made. Upon request by Lender, Borrowers shall deliver to Lender the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment of Indemnified Taxes, a copy of any return required by applicable law to report such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to Lender.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)Without limiting the provisions of subsections (a) and (b) above, the Loan Parties shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Without limiting the provisions of subsections (a) through (c) above, each Loan Party shall, and does hereby, on a joint and several basis indemnify Lender and each other Recipient (and their respective directors, officers, employees, affiliates and agents) and shall make payment in respect thereof within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes and Other Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes and Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) paid or incurred by Lender or any other Recipient on account of, or in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of any such payment or

liability delivered to Borrowers shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, this Section 9.1 shall remain operative even after the Termination Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) If Lender or any Participant is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document, Lender shall deliver to Borrowers and each such Participant shall deliver to Lender granting the participation, at the time or times prescribed by applicable laws or reasonably requested by the Borrowers or Lender granting the participation, such properly completed and executed documentation as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, Lender shall deliver to Borrowers and each Participant shall deliver to Lender granting the participation, at the time or times prescribed by applicable laws or reasonably requested by the Borrowers or the Lender granting the participation, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable laws or by the taxing authorities of any jurisdiction or such other reasonably requested information as will enable Borrowers or Lender granting the participation, as the case may be, to determine (i) whether or not payments made hereunder or under any other Loan Document are subject to Taxes (including backup withholding) or information reporting requirements, (ii) if applicable, the required rate of withholding or deduction, and (iii) such Lender's or Participant's entitlement to any available exemption from, or reduction of, applicable Taxes in respect of all payments to be made to such Lender by the Loan Parties pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise to establish such Lender's or Participant's status for withholding tax purposes in the applicable jurisdiction. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 9.1(e)(i), (ii) or (iii)) shall not be required if in the Lender's or Participant's reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender or Participant to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender or Participant.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if a Borrower is resident for tax purposes in the United States:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii)If a payment made to Lender (or Participant) under any Loan Document would be subject to United States federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if Lender (or such Participant) were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), Lender (or such Participant) shall deliver to the Borrowers and Lender granting such participation at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrowers or Lender granting such participation such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrowers or Lender granting such participation as may be necessary for the Borrowers and Lender granting such participation to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that Lender or such Participant has complied with Lender's or such Participant's obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount, if any, to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this (iii), "FATCA" shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv)If any form or certification previously delivered by Lender (or any Participant) expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, Lender (or any Participant) shall update such form or certification or promptly notify Borrowers (or Lender granting a participation) of its legal inability to do so.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f)If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 9.1 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 9.1), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this Section 9.1(f) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 9.1(f), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this Section 9.1(f) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person. For purposes of this Section 9.1(f), all references to "refund" shall include the monetary benefit of a credit received in lieu of a refund of Taxes.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g)Each party's obligations under this Section 9.1 shall survive any assignment of rights by Lender or any Participant and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document.

Lender and each of its Affiliates is authorized to transmit, post or otherwise make or communicate, in its sole discretion (but shall not be required to do so), by Approved Electronic Communications in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document and the transactions contemplated therein. Lender is hereby authorized to establish procedures to provide access to and to make available or deliver, or to accept, notices, documents and similar items by posting to Passport 6.0.

**Loan and Security Agreement**

Each of the Loan Parties and Lender hereby acknowledges and agrees that the use of Passport 6.0 and other Approved Electronic Communications is not necessarily secure and that there are risks associated with such use, including risks of interception, disclosure and abuse and each indicates it assumes and accepts such risks by hereby authorizing Lender and each of its Affiliates to transmit Approved Electronic Communications. Passport 6.0 and all Approved Electronic Communications shall be provided "as is" and "as available". None of Lender or any of its Affiliates or related persons warrants the accuracy, adequacy or completeness of Passport 6.0 or any other electronic platform or electronic transmission and disclaims all liability for errors or omissions therein. No warranty of any kind is made by Lender or any of its Affiliates or related persons in connection with Passport 6.0 or any other electronic platform or electronic transmission, including any warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement of third-party rights or freedom from viruses or other code defects. Each Borrower and each other Loan Party executing this Agreement agrees that Lender has no responsibility for maintaining or providing any equipment, software, services or any testing required in connection with Passport 6.0, any Approved Electronic Communication or otherwise required for Passport 6.0 or any Approved Electronic Communication.

Prior to the Closing Date, Borrowing Agent shall deliver to Lender a complete and executed client user form regarding Borrowing Agent's use of Passport 6.0 in the form of Exhibit C annexed hereto.

Approved Electronic Communications that are not readily capable of bearing either a signature or a reproduction of a signature may be signed, and shall be deemed signed, by attaching to, or logically associating with such Approved Electronic Communication, an E-Signature, upon which Lender and the Loan Parties may rely and assume the authenticity thereof. Each Approved Electronic Communication containing a signature, a reproduction of a signature or an E-Signature shall, for all intents and purposes, have the same effect and weight as a signed paper original. Each E-Signature shall be deemed sufficient to satisfy any requirement for a "signature" and each Approved Electronic Communication shall be deemed sufficient to satisfy any requirement for a "writing", in each case including pursuant to this Agreement, any other Loan Document, the Uniform Commercial Code, the Federal Uniform Electronic Transactions Act, the Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act and any substantive or procedural law governing such subject matter. Each party or beneficiary hereto agrees not to contest the validity or enforceability of an Approved Electronic Communication or E-Signature under the provisions of any applicable law requiring certain documents to be in writing or signed; ***provided***, that nothing herein shall limit such party's or beneficiary's right to contest whether an Approved Electronic Communication or E-Signature has been altered after transmission.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**10.2&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Severability.** If any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document is held invalid or unenforceable, either in its entirety or by virtue of its scope or application to given circumstances, such provision shall thereupon be deemed modified only to the extent necessary to render same valid, or not applicable to given circumstances, or excised from this Agreement or such other Loan Document, as the situation may require, and this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be construed and enforced as if such provision had been included herein as so modified in scope or application, or had not been included herein or therein, as the case may be.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**10.9&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Recordation of Assignment.** In respect of any assignment of all or any portion of any Lender's interest in this Agreement and/or any other Loan Documents at any time and from time to time, the following provisions shall be applicable:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)Borrowers, or any agent appointed by Borrowers, shall maintain a register (the "***Register***") in which there shall be recorded the name and address of each Person holding any Loans or any commitment to lend hereunder, and the principal amount and stated interest payable to such Person hereunder or committed by such Person under such Person's lending commitment. Borrowers hereby irrevocably appoint Lender (and/or any subsequent Lender appointed by Lender then maintaining the Register) as Borrowers' non-fiduciary agent for the purpose of maintaining the Register.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)In connection with any negotiation, transfer or assignment as aforesaid, the transferor/assignor shall deliver to Lender then maintaining the Register an assignment and assumption agreement executed by the transferor/assignor and the transferee/assignee, setting forth the specifics of the subject transaction, including but not limited to the amount and nature of Obligations and/or lending commitments being transferred or assigned (and being assumed, as applicable), and the proposed effective date of such transfer or assignment and the related assumption (if applicable).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)Subject to receipt of any required tax forms reasonably required by Lender, such Person shall record the subject transfer, assignment and assumption in the Register. Anything contained in this Agreement or other Loan Document to the contrary notwithstanding, no negotiation, transfer or assignment shall be effective until it is recorded in the Register pursuant to this Section 10.9(c). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error; and each Borrower and each Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. The Register shall be available for inspection by each Borrower and each Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

In the event of a sale by Lender of a participating interest to a Participant, (a) such Lender's obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall remain unchanged for all purposes, (b) Borrowers and Lender shall continue to deal solely and directly with each other in connection with Lender's rights and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and (c) all amounts payable by Borrowers shall be determined as if Lender had not sold such participation and shall be paid directly to Lender. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which Lender sells such a participation shall provide that Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement. The Borrowers agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.1 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 9.1(e) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 9.1(e) shall be delivered to the participating Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 10.9; ***provided****,* that such Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 9.1, with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a change in law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation. Borrowers also agree that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.9 as if it were Lender. Notwithstanding the granting of any such participating interests: (x) Borrowers shall look solely to Lender for all purposes of this Agreement, the Loan

Lender granting a participation hereunder shall maintain, as a non-fiduciary agent of Borrowers, a register (the "***Participant Register***") as to the participations granted and transferred under this Section containing the same information specified in Section 10.9 on the Register as if each Participant were a Lender to the extent required to cause the Loans to be in registered form for the purposes of Sections 163(f), 165(j), 871, 881, and 4701 of the Code. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.

EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES PERSONAL SERVICE OF ANY AND ALL PROCESS UPON SUCH PARTY AND CONSENTS THAT ALL SUCH SERVICE OF PROCESS MAY BE MADE BY CERTIFIED MAIL (RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED) DIRECTED TO SUCH PARTY'S NOTICE ADDRESS SET FORTH IN SECTION 10.1 HEREOF AND SERVICE SO MADE SHALL BE DEEMED TO BE COMPLETED FIVE (5) DAYS AFTER THE SAME SHALL HAVE BEEN SO DEPOSITED IN THE MAIL, OR, AT THE OPTION OF ANY PARTY HERETO, BY SERVICE UPON SUCH OTHER PARTY IN ANY OTHER MANNER PROVIDED UNDER THE RULES OF ANY SUCH COURTS.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)Dispute Resolution if Jury Waiver Not Enforceable.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i)The parties have agreed, as set forth in Section 10.14 above, that the internal laws of the State of New York shall apply to this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the rights and obligations of the parties hereunder and thereunder, and the parties have agreed and strongly prefer that any dispute between them be resolved in litigation subject to the jury trial waiver set forth in Section 10.15 above. However, if, for any reason, a court of competent jurisdiction determines that California law is applicable to said jury trial waiver and that said jury trial waiver is unenforceable, invalid, ineffective or otherwise not applicable to any dispute between the parties (a "**Dispute**"), then (and only then) the parties agree that the following provisions shall apply to such Dispute: Such Dispute shall be resolved exclusively by judicial reference in accordance with Sections 638 et seq. of the California Code of Civil Procedure ("**CCP**") and Rules 3.900 et seq. of the California Rules of Court ("**CRC**"), subject to the following terms and conditions. (All references in this section to provisions of the CCP and/or CRC shall be deemed to include any and all successor provisions.)

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii)The reference shall be a consensual general reference pursuant to CCP Sections 638 and 644(a). Unless the parties otherwise agree in writing, the reference shall be to a single referee. The referee shall be a retired Judge of the Los Angeles County Superior Court ("Superior Court") or a retired Justice of the California Court of Appeal or California Supreme Court. Nothing in this section shall be construed to limit the right of Lender, pending or after the appointment of the referee, to seek and obtain provisional relief from the Superior Court or such referee, or any other court in a jurisdiction in which any Collateral is located or having jurisdiction over any Collateral, including without limitation, writ of attachment, writ of possession, appointment of a receiver, temporary restraining order and/or preliminary injunction, or other "provisional remedy" (as such term is defined in CCP Section 1281.8).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii)Within fifteen (15) days after a party gives written notice in accordance with this Agreement to all other parties to a Dispute that the Dispute exists and these provisions are applicable to the Dispute, all parties to the Dispute shall attempt to agree on the individual to be appointed as referee. If the parties are unable to agree on the individual to be appointed as referee, the referee shall be appointed, upon noticed motion or ex parte application by any party, by the Superior Court in accordance with CCP Section 640, subject to all rights of the parties to challenge or object to the appointment, including without limitation the right to peremptory challenge under CCP Section 170.6. If the referee (or any successor referee) appointed by the Superior Court is unable, or at any time becomes unable, to serve as referee in the Dispute, the Superior Court shall appoint a new referee as agreed to by the parties or, if the parties cannot agree, in accordance with CCP Section 640, which new referee shall then have the same powers, and be subject to the same terms and conditions, as the predecessor referee.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv)Venue for all proceedings before the referee, and for any Superior Court proceeding for the appointment of the referee, shall be exclusively within the County of Los Angeles,

4874-2581-2044v.13

------

**Loan and Security Agreement**

State of California. The referee shall have the exclusive power to determine whether a Dispute is subject to judicial reference pursuant to this section. Trial, and all proceedings and hearings on dispositive motions, conducted before the referee shall be conducted in the presence of, and shall be transcribed by, a court reporter, unless otherwise agreed in writing by all parties to the proceeding. The referee shall issue a written statement of decision, which shall be subject to objections of the parties pursuant to CRC Rule 3.1590 as if the statement of decision were issued by the Superior Court. The referee's powers include, in addition to those set forth in CCP Sections 638, et seq., and CRC Rules 3.900 et seq., (i) the power to grant provisional relief, including without limitation, writ of attachment, writ of possession, appointment of a receiver, temporary restraining order and/or preliminary injunction, or other "provisional remedy" (as such term is defined in CCP Section 1281.8), and (ii) the power to hear and resolve all post-trial matters in connection with the Dispute that would otherwise be determined by the Superior Court, including without limitation motions for new trial, reconsideration, to vacate judgment, to stay execution or enforcement, to tax costs, and/or for attorneys' fees. The parties shall, subject to the referee's power to award costs to the prevailing party, bear equally the costs of the reference proceeding, including without limitation the fees and costs of the referee and the court reporter.

The parties acknowledge and agree that (i) the referee alone shall determine all issues of fact and/or law in the Dispute, without a jury (subject, however, to the right of a party, pending or after the appointment of the referee, to seek and obtain provisional relief from the Superior Court or such referee, including without limitation, writ of attachment, writ of possession, appointment of a receiver, temporary restraining order and/or preliminary injunction, or other "provisional remedy" (as such term is defined in CCP Section 1281.8)), (ii) the referee does not have the power to empanel a jury, (iii) the Superior Court shall enter judgment on the decision of the referee pursuant to CCP Section 644(a) as if the decision were issued by the Superior Court, (iv) the decision of the referee shall not be subject to review by the Superior Court, and (v) the decision of the referee, once entered as a judgment by the Superior Court, shall be binding, final and conclusive, shall have the full force and effect of a judgment of the Superior Court, and shall be subject to appeal to the same extent as a judgment of the Superior Court.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**10.16&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Publication.** Each Borrower and each other Loan Party consents to the publication by Lender, at its sole cost and expense, of the Borrowers' and other Loan Parties' names and logos in any tombstone, press releases or similar advertising material and to give such other publicity to this Agreement as Lender may determine, so long as such publicity (x) is not disparaging in any way to any Borrower, any other Loan Party, or any of their respective Affiliates and (y) relates to the financing transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the type of the loan or security being offered and the amount of the loan. The foregoing authorization shall remain in effect unless the Borrowing Agent notifies Lender in writing that such authorization is revoked. Lender reserves the right to provide to industry trade organizations information necessary and customary for inclusion in league table measurements.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**10.17&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Confidentiality.** Lender agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts not to disclose Confidential Information to any Person without the prior consent of Borrowers; ***provided****,* that nothing herein contained shall limit any disclosure of the tax structure of the transactions contemplated hereby, or the disclosure of any Confidential Information (a) to the extent required by applicable law, statute, rule, regulation or judicial process or in connection with the exercise of any right or remedy under any Loan Document, or as may be required in connection with the examination, audit or similar investigation of the Lender or any of its Affiliates (b) to examiners, auditors, accountants or any regulatory authority, (c) to the officers, partners, managers, directors, employees, agents and advisors (including independent auditors, lawyers and counsel) of the Lender or any of its subsidiaries or Affiliates, in each case on a "need-to-know" basis, (d) in connection with any litigation or dispute which relates to this Agreement or any other Loan Document to which the Lender is a party or is otherwise subject, (e) to any assignee or participant (or prospective assignee or participant) which agrees to be bound by this Section 10.17 and (f) to any lender or other funding source of the Lender that is subject to a commercially reasonable non-disclosure agreement (each reference to Lender in the foregoing clauses shall be deemed to include the actual and prospective assignees and participants referred to in clause (e) and the lenders and other funding sources referred to in clause (f), as applicable for purposes of this Section 10.17), and ***provided further***, on and after the Termination Date and upon the written request of Borrowing Agent and at Borrowers sole expense, Lender shall use commercially reasonable efforts to return any materials

furnished by or on behalf of Borrowers or any other Loan Party. Notwithstanding the obligations set forth in this paragraph, Lender and any of its representatives may retain such furnished materials (i) for the purposes of backup, recovery or contingency and business continuity planning, or (ii) to comply with internal document retention policies; provided that such furnished materials are not accessible in the ordinary course of business. The obligations of the Lender under this Section 10.17 shall supersede and replace the obligations of the Lender under any confidentiality letter or provision in respect of this financing or any other financing previously signed and delivered by the Lender to Borrowers or any of their respective Affiliates.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**10.18&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Borrowing Agency Provisions**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)<u>Appointment of Borrowing Agent</u>. Each Borrower hereby irrevocably designates Borrowing Agent to be its attorney and agent and in such capacity to (i) borrow, (ii) request advances, (iii) request the issuance of Letters of Credit, (iv) sign and endorse notes, (v) execute and deliver all instruments, documents, applications, security agreements, reimbursement agreements and letter of credit agreements for Letters of Credit and all other certificates, notice, writings and further assurances now or hereafter required hereunder, (vi) make elections regarding interest rates, (vii) give instructions regarding Letters of Credit and agree with the issuer thereof upon any amendment, extension or renewal of any Letter of Credit and (viii) otherwise take action under and in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, all on behalf of and in the name such Borrower, and hereby authorizes Lender to pay over or credit all Loan proceeds hereunder in accordance with the request of Borrowing Agent.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)<u>Co-Borrowing</u>. 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 the Borrowers and at their request. Lender shall not incur liability to any Borrower as a result thereof. To induce Lender to do so and in consideration thereof, each Borrower hereby indemnifies Lender and holds Lender harmless from and against any and all liabilities, expenses, losses, damages and claims of damage or injury asserted against Lender by any Person arising from or incurred by reason of the handling of the financing arrangements of Borrowers as provided herein, reliance by Lender on any request or instruction from Borrowing Agent or any other action taken by Lender with respect to this Section 10.18 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 and non-appealable judgment).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)<u>Joint and Several Obligations</u>. 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 by Lender to any Borrower, failure of Lender to give any Borrower notice of borrowing or any other notice, any failure of Lender to pursue or preserve its rights against any Borrower, the release by 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 Lender to the other Borrowers or any Collateral for such Borrower's Obligations or the lack thereof. To the extent permitted by applicable law, each Borrower waives all suretyship defenses.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**10.19&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Rules of Construction**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)<u>Accounting Treatment</u>. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all terms of an accounting or financial nature shall be construed in accordance with GAAP as in effect from time to time, provided, that if Borrowing Agent notifies Lender that Loan Parties request an amendment to any provision (including any definition) hereof to eliminate the effect of any change occurring after the Closing Date in GAAP or in the application thereof on the operation of such provision (or if Lender notifies Borrowing Agent that it requests an amendment to any provision hereof for such purpose), regardless of whether any such notice is given before or after such change in GAAP or in the application thereof, then such provision shall be interpreted on the basis of GAAP as in effect and applied immediately before such change shall have become effective until such notice shall have been withdrawn or such provision amended in accordance herewith (which such modifications or amendments shall be

made without the payment of any fee to the extent they relate to or arise out of such changes in GAAP and/or the application thereof).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)<u>Other Interpretive Provisions</u>. References in this Agreement to "Articles", "Sections", "Annexes", "Exhibits" or "Schedules" shall be to Articles, Sections, Annexes, Exhibits or Schedules of or to this Agreement unless otherwise specifically provided. Any term defined herein may be used in the singular or plural. "Include", "includes" and "including" shall be deemed to be followed by "without limitation". "Or" shall be construed to mean "and/or". Except as otherwise specified or limited herein, references to any Person include the successors and assigns of such Person. References to "from" or "through" any date mean, unless otherwise specified, "from and including" or "through and including", respectively. Unless otherwise specified herein, the settlement of all payments and fundings hereunder between or among the parties hereto shall be made in lawful money of the United States and in immediately available funds. Time is of the essence for each performance obligation of the Loan Parties under this Agreement and each Loan Document. All amounts used for purposes of financial calculations required to be made herein shall be without duplication. References to any statute or act shall include all related current regulations and all amendments and any successor statutes, acts and regulations. References to any agreement, instrument or document (a) shall include all schedules, exhibits, annexes and other attachments thereto and (b) shall be construed as referring to such agreement, instrument or other document as from time to time amended, amended and restated, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified (subject to any restrictions on such amendments, amendments and restatements, restatements, supplements or modifications set forth herein or in any other Loan Document). The words "asset" and "property" shall be construed to have the same meaning and effect and to refer to any and all tangible and intangible assets and properties, including cash, securities, accounts and contract rights. Unless otherwise specified herein Dollar ($) baskets set forth in the representations and warranty, covenants and event of default provisions of this Agreement (and other similar baskets) are calculated as of each date of measurement by the Dollar Equivalents thereof as of such date of measurement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)<u>Payment and Performance</u>. Whenever any payment due hereunder or the performance of any covenant, duty or other obligation hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall fall due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment or performance shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and in the case of any payment, such extension of time shall be included in the computation of interest or fees, as the case may be.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d)<u>Information Certificates.</u> Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, with respect to any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained herein or in any other Loan Document that is qualified by reference to the Information Certificates, such reference shall be to the Information Certificates delivered as of the Closing Date or as updated pursuant to Section 5.15(d).
