          hereto.  The meanings of defined terms shall be equally applicable to the singular and plural forms of the defined terms.  Terms (including uncapitalized terms) not otherwise defined herein and that are defined in the UCC shall have the meanings
          therein described.

     

        

    (b)         Performance;

              Time.  Whenever any performance obligation hereunder or under any other Loan Document (other than a payment obligation) shall be stated to be due or required to be satisfied on a day other than a Business Day, such performance
          shall be made or satisfied on the next succeeding Business Day.  All references to the time of day shall be a reference to Eastern time.

     

        

    1.3         Accounting Terms and Principles.  All accounting determinations required to be made pursuant hereto shall, unless expressly
        otherwise provided herein, be made in accordance with GAAP.  If at any time any change in GAAP would affect the computation of any financial ratio or requirement set forth in any Loan Document, and either the Borrower Representative or the Required
        Lenders shall so request, the Agent, the Lenders and the Borrowers shall negotiate in good faith to amend such ratio or requirement to preserve the original intent thereof in light of such change in GAAP (subject to the approval of the Borrowers
        and the Required Lenders); provided that, until so amended, (a) such ratio or requirement shall continue to be computed in accordance with GAAP prior to such change therein, and (b) the Borrowers shall
        provide to the Agent and the Lenders financial statements and other documents required under this Agreement setting forth a reconciliation between calculations of such ratio or requirement made before and after giving effect to such change in GAAP.

    THE CREDITS

     

    

    2.1          Amounts and Terms of Facilities

     

        

    
      33

      
        

    

    (a)          The Floorplan Facility.

            

          

    (i)          Subject to the
          terms and conditions of this Agreement and in reliance upon the representations and warranties of the Credit Parties contained herein, each Lender with a Floorplan Loan Allocation, subject in all respect to the discretionary nature of the
          Floorplan Facility as set forth in Section 2.1(a)(ii) below, severally and not jointly agrees to provide a portion of the Floorplan Facility during the period from the Closing Date through the
          Floorplan Termination Date, in amount up to, but not exceeding the amount set forth opposite such Lender’s name in Schedule 2.1(a) under the heading “Floorplan Loan Allocation”; for the avoidance of doubt, the Maximum Overtrade Amount shall not be included in CDF’s Floorplan Loan Allocation. Amounts borrowed under this Section
              2.1(a)(i) are referred to as the “Floorplan Loans.”

     

        

    

    (ii)         Subject to the
          terms of this Agreement, Lenders may extend credit to the Borrowers from time to time to purchase inventory from vendors approved by CDF (“Vendors”).  The decision to
          issue Approvals and make advances under the Floorplan Facility and Floorplan Loans (“Floorplan Advances”) shall be made in CDF’s sole and absolute discretion.  CDF’s
          decision to issue an Approval and make a Floorplan Advance will not, subject in all respects to Section 2.1(a)(v) below, be binding upon the Lenders until an approved Borrower Invoice is booked by CDF
          and Agent.  Without limiting the discretionary nature of the Floorplan Facility, CDF may, at any time without notice to Borrowers, elect not to finance any Inventory sold by any particular Vendor, due to (A) such Vendor’s failure to comply with
          any law, rule, regulation, order or decree; (B) such Vendor’s failure to comply with any internal policies and procedures of CDF or any Lender relating to import or export controls, anti-money laundering, anti-terrorism, securities law, banking
          law or regulation, fraud statutes and other similar laws and regulations and codes of ethical conduct (collectively, “Internal Policies”); (C) any circumstance which may
          make CDF’s disbursement of any advance to such Vendor in violation of any applicable law, rule, regulation, order or decree applicable to CDF or Agent or any Internal Policies; (D) such Vendor’s default of its obligations to CDF; or (E) any other
          reason in CDF’s sole and absolute discretion. Following such disapproval, such Vendor shall cease to be a “Vendor” under this Agreement. If a Vendor is disapproved for any reason set forth above, such disapproval will only affect Borrowers’
          ability to request, and Lenders’ obligation to make, subsequent Floorplan Loans and will not require immediate repayment of previous advances with respect to Inventory purchased from such disapproved Vendor. This is an agreement regarding the
          extension of credit, and not the provision of goods or services.

     

        

    (iii)       Subject to the terms
          of this Agreement, each Lender agrees to provide to Borrowers Floorplan Advances in an aggregate principal amount outstanding not to exceed the Maximum Floorplan Amount.  The amount of any Floorplan Advance shall not exceed the invoice price for
          the purchase of the Inventory with respect to which such Floorplan Advance is requested.

     

        

    (iv)        Repayments from time
          to time of the outstanding balance of the Floorplan Loans hereunder shall be available to be re-borrowed pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

     

        

    (v)         Each Lender shall
          have the obligation to fund its Ratable Share of a Floorplan Loan upon issuance by CDF of an Approval.  Lenders acknowledge and agree that: (A) CDF typically issues Approvals on a date (each, an “Approval Date”) prior to the date CDF is required actually to fund the Loan (each, an “Advance Date”) that is based on such Approval, (B)
          once an Approval has been issued, and the Vendor receiving such Approval shall have shipped its product based thereon, CDF may deem itself obligated to fund the related Loan on the Advance Date, notwithstanding any Default or Event of Default that may arise on or prior to an Approval Date (each, an “Intervening Default”), and (C) each Lender shall be obligated to fully fund in cash such
          Lender’s Ratable Share in any Floorplan Loans which derive from all Approvals issued by CDF in good faith, including Open Approvals, notwithstanding any Intervening Default.  Borrowers shall be obligated on each Floorplan Loan upon booking of the
          applicable Borrower Invoice.

     

        

    
      34

      
        

    

    (vi)       On each Settlement
          Date on or before 12:00 p.m. (prevailing Eastern time), Agent shall deliver notice to each Lender of the Aggregate Funded Floorplan Outstandings, and: (A) if the amount of Floorplan Loans such Lender has funded is less than Lender’s Ratable Share
          multiplied by the Aggregate Funded Floorplan Outstandings calculated as of such Settlement Date, then such Lender shall remit such deficiency to Agent (on behalf of, and such amount shall be deemed remitted to, CDF) by 4:00 p.m. (prevailing
          Eastern time) on the Settlement Date, and (B) if the amount of Floorplan Loans such Lender has funded is more than Lender’s Ratable Share multiplied by the Aggregate Funded Floorplan Outstandings calculated as of such Settlement Date, then Agent
          (on behalf of, and such amount shall be deemed remitted by, CDF) will remit such excess to such Lender by 4:00 p.m. (prevailing Eastern time) on the Settlement Date.  Each payment due to Agent or Lenders will be paid in immediately available
          funds according to the electronic transfer instructions set forth on Schedule 10.2 (or such other electronic transfer instructions as Agent or any Lender may from time to time notify the Borrower
          Representative and Agent), and, if not timely paid in accordance with this Agreement, will bear interest until paid at a rate per annum equal to then applicable interest rate on the Floorplan Loans.  If CDF is acting as Agent, it shall be deemed
          to have paid its deficiency or received its excess as set forth above on each Settlement Date.  Each Lender hereby waives any right it may now or in the future have to set-off its obligation to make any payment to CDF or Agent under this
          Agreement against any obligation of CDF or Agent to such Lender, whether under this Agreement or any other agreement between CDF and such Lender or Agent and such Lender.  A Floorplan Loan will be deemed to have been fully funded on the first
          Settlement Date on which such Floorplan Loan is included in connection with the calculation of the Lenders’ (other than CDF) respective Ratable Share of Aggregate Funded Floorplan Outstandings (such date, with respect to such Floorplan Loan, the
          “Floorplan Funding Date”).

     

        

    (vii)      Agent, the Lenders
          and Borrowers agree that certain financial terms of any Floorplan Advance under this Agreement, whether regarding finance charges, other fees, maturities, curtailments or other financial terms, are not set forth herein because such terms depend,
          in part, upon the availability of Vendor discounts, payment terms or other incentives, prevailing economic conditions, the floorplanning volume with Borrowers and with Borrowers’ Vendors, and other economic factors which may vary over time. 
          Agent, the Lenders and Borrowers further agree that it is therefore in their mutual best interest to set forth in this Agreement only the general terms of the Floorplan Facility.  Upon agreeing to finance a particular item of Inventory for a
          Borrower, Agent will transmit, send or otherwise make available (delivered by mail, courier or electronically in a separate writing or website posting, or set forth in the Transaction Statement) to the Borrowers, a Transaction Statement
          identifying such Inventory and the applicable financial terms.  Borrowers agree that the failure of Borrower Representative to notify Agent in writing of any objection to a Transaction Statement within thirty (30) days after a Transaction
          Statement is transmitted or otherwise sent to the Borrower Representative shall constitute Borrowers’ (a) acceptance thereof, (b) agreement that the Lenders are financing such Inventory at Borrowers’ request, and (c) agreement that such
          Transaction Statement will be incorporated herein by reference to the extent not inconsistent with the terms hereof.  To the extent any Transaction Statement is inconsistent with the terms hereof, this Agreement shall govern and control.  If any
          Borrower objects to any Transaction Statement, such Borrower and Agent, on behalf of Lenders, will work in good faith to resolve such objection within sixty (60) days after the applicable Transaction Statement is transmitted or otherwise sent to
          such Borrower.  However, notwithstanding such objection, Borrowers will pay Agent on behalf of Lenders for such Inventory in accordance with the most recent terms for similar Inventory to which Borrowers have not objected
          under this Agreement, or, if there are no prior terms, at the rate set forth in this Agreement.  Borrowers acknowledge that if such objection is not resolved, CDF may then elect to terminate the Floorplan Facility pursuant to Section 2.7(b) and, upon such termination, Lenders will cease making additional Floorplan Advances to Borrowers.  Notwithstanding such termination, Borrowers shall continue to be obligated to pay the
          amounts reflected on any Transaction Statement as required hereunder.

    
      35

      
        

    

    (viii)      As of the Closing
          Date, all outstanding advances and approvals under the Existing AWF shall be deemed to be refinanced and shall be considered Floorplan Loans and/or Approvals under this Agreement; provided that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
          herein, the applicable invoice date, date of booking an invoice or issuing an Approval or other applicable date to each such Floorplan Loan and/or Approval shall be the date applicable under the Existing AWF.

     

        

    (ix)        CDF, for itself in its individual
        capacity as a Lender, may, in its sole and absolute discretion at any time and without notice to or consent from any other Lender, issue Approvals which, when added to all other Aggregate Floorplan Outstandings, may exceed the Maximum Floorplan
        Amount (each, an “Overtrade Approvals”), provided that (a) the outstanding principal balance of Floorplan Loans may not exceed the Maximum Floorplan Amount and (b) the
        aggregate of all outstanding Overtrade Approvals may not exceed the Maximum Overtrade Amount.  All Overtrade Approvals shall be secured by all of the Collateral.  In addition, Overtrade Approvals may have the benefit of additional credit
        enhancements, other than the Collateral.

     

      

    (x)        If, at any time, the
          Aggregate Outstandings exceed the Aggregate Floorplan Loan Allocation, Borrower will immediately pay to CDF an amount not less than the difference between (i) Aggregate Outstandings and (ii) the Aggregate Floorplan Loan Allocation.

     

        

    (b)          The
              Revolving Credit Facility.

     

        

    (i)         Subject to the terms and conditions of
        this Agreement and in reliance upon the representations and warranties of the Credit Parties contained herein, each Lender agrees, severally and not jointly, to make Loans to the Borrowers (each such Loan, a “Revolving Loan”) from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Closing Date through the Revolving Termination Date, in an aggregate amount at any time outstanding not to exceed the
        amount set forth opposite such Lender’s name in Schedule 2.1(b) under the heading “Revolving Loan Allocations” (such amount
        as the same may be reduced or increased from time to time in accordance with this Agreement, being referred to herein as such Lender’s “Revolving Loan Allocation”). 
        Subject to the other terms and conditions hereof, amounts borrowed under this Section 2.1(b) may be repaid and reborrowed from time to time.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Agent may
        determine in its sole and absolute discretion whether to approve any Revolving Loan, and any such determination will not be binding until the funds are actually advanced.

     

      

    (ii)         Agent may, in the sole and absolute
        discretion of Agent, elect to make, or permit to remain outstanding, Revolving Loans in excess of the Maximum Revolving Loan Availability (any such excess Revolving Loan is herein referred to as a “Protective Overadvance”) to (A) preserve or protect the Collateral, or any portion thereof, (B) enhance the likelihood of, or maximize the amount of, repayment of the Loan and other Obligations, or (C) to pay any other
        amount chargeable to or required to be paid by the Borrowers pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, including payments of reimbursable expenses and other sums payable under the Loan Documents; provided, however,
        that (A) Agent may not cause Lenders to make, or permit to remain outstanding, a Protective Overadvance in an aggregate amount in excess of ten percent (10%) of the Aggregate Revolving Loan Allocation and (B) no Lender will
        be required to fund Protective Overadvances if such funding would cause the aggregate amount of Revolving Loans funded by such Lender to exceed such Lender’s Revolving Loan Allocation. If a Protective Overadvance is made, or permitted to remain
        outstanding, pursuant to the preceding sentence, then all Lenders shall be bound to make, or permit to remain outstanding, such Protective Overadvance based upon their Allocation Percentage of the Aggregate Revolving Loan Allocation in accordance
        with the terms of this Agreement, regardless of whether the conditions to lending set forth in Section 3.2 have been met.  All Protective Overadvances shall bear interest at the LIBOR Rate plus the
        Applicable Margin for Revolving Loans and the default rate under Section 2.3(d).

     

      

    
      36

      
        

    

    (iii)        As of the Closing
          Date, all outstanding advances and approvals under the Existing BFA shall be deemed to be refinanced and shall be considered Revolving Loans under this Agreement.

     

        

    (c)          Letters

              of Credit.

     

        

    (i)          Conditions.  On the terms and subject to the conditions contained herein, each L/C Issuer agrees to use reasonable efforts to Issue, in reliance upon the agreements of the
          other Lenders in this Section 2.1, for the account of a Borrower, Letters of Credit (denominated in Dollars) from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Closing Date through the
          Revolving Termination Date; provided, however, that no L/C Issuer shall Issue any Letter of Credit upon the occurrence of any of the following or, if after giving effect to such Issuance:

     

        

    (A)          (i) Maximum
          Revolving Loan Availability would be less than zero or (ii) the Letter of Credit Obligations for all Letters of Credit would exceed Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000.00) (the “L/C

            Sublimit”);

     

        

    (B)          the expiration date
          of such Letter of Credit (i) is not a Business Day, or (ii) is more than Three Hundred Sixty-Four (364) days after the date of Issuance thereof; or

     

        

    (C)          (i) any fee due in
          connection with, and on or prior to, such Issuance has not been paid, (ii) such Letter of Credit is requested to be Issued in a form that is not acceptable to such L/C Issuer or (iii) such L/C Issuer shall not have received, each in form and
          substance reasonably acceptable to it and duly executed by the Borrowers, the documents that such L/C Issuer generally uses in the Ordinary Course of Business for the Issuance of letters of credit of the type of such Letter of Credit
          (collectively, the “L/C Reimbursement Agreement”).

     

        

    To the extent any L/C Reimbursement Agreement is inconsistent with the terms hereof, this Agreement shall govern and control.

     

    

    For each Issuance, the applicable L/C Issuer may, but shall not be required to, determine that, or take notice whether, the conditions precedent set
      forth in Section 3.2 have been satisfied or waived in connection with the Issuance of any Letter of Credit.

     

    

    Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary herein, if any Lender is a Non-Funding Lender or Impacted Lender, no L/C Issuer shall be obligated to
      Issue any Letter of Credit unless (w) the Non-Funding Lender or Impacted Lender has been replaced in accordance with Section 10.9 or 10.22, (x) the Letter of
      Credit Obligations of such Non-Funding Lender or Impacted Lender have been cash collateralized, (y) the Revolving Loan Allocations of the other Lenders have been increased by an amount sufficient to satisfy Agent that all future Letter of Credit
      Obligations will be covered by all Lenders that are not Non-Funding Lenders or Impacted Lenders, or (z) the Letter of Credit Obligations of such Non-Funding Lender or Impacted Lender have been reallocated to other Lenders in a
      manner consistent with Section 2.11(e)(ii).

     

    

    
      37

      
        

    

    (ii)         Notice of Issuance.  The Borrower Representative shall give the relevant L/C Issuer and Agent a notice of any requested Issuance of any Letter of Credit, which shall be effective only if received by such
          L/C Issuer and Agent not later than 10:00 a.m. on the third Business Day prior to the date of such requested Issuance.  Such notice shall be made in a writing or Electronic Transmission substantially in the form of Exhibit

              2.1(c) duly completed or in any other written form acceptable to such L/C Issuer (each, an “L/C Request”).

     

        

    (iii)        Reporting Obligations of L/C Issuers.  Each L/C Issuer agrees to provide Agent, in form and substance satisfactory to Agent, each of the following on the following dates: (A) (i) on or prior to any
          Issuance of any Letter of Credit by such L/C Issuer, (ii) immediately after any drawing under any such Letter of Credit or (iii) immediately after any payment (or failure to pay when due) by the Borrowers of any related L/C Reimbursement
          Obligation, notice thereof, which shall contain a reasonably detailed description of such Issuance, drawing or payment, and Agent shall provide copies of such notices to each Lender reasonably promptly after receipt thereof; (B) upon the request
          of Agent (or any Lender through Agent), copies of any Letter of Credit Issued by such L/C Issuer and any related L/C Reimbursement Agreement and such other documents and information as may reasonably be requested by Agent; and (C) on the first
          Business Day of each calendar week, a schedule of the Letters of Credit Issued by such L/C Issuer, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Agent, setting forth the Letter of Credit Obligations for such Letters of Credit outstanding on
          the last Business Day of the previous calendar week.

     

        

    (iv)       Acquisition of Participations.  Upon any Issuance of a Letter of Credit in accordance with the terms of this Agreement resulting in any increase in the Letter of Credit Obligations, each Lender shall be
          deemed to have acquired, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation in such Letter of Credit and the related Letter of Credit Obligations in an amount equal to its Allocation Percentage of such Letter of Credit
          Obligations.

     

        

    (v)          Reimbursement Obligations of the Borrowers.  Borrowers agree to pay to the L/C Issuer of any Letter of Credit, or to Agent for the benefit of such L/C Issuer, each L/C Reimbursement Obligation owing with
          respect to such Letter of Credit no later than the first Business Day after Borrower Representative receives notice from such L/C Issuer or from Agent that payment has been made under such Letter of Credit or that such L/C Reimbursement
          Obligation is otherwise due (the “L/C Reimbursement Date”) with interest thereon computed as set forth below.  In the event that any L/C Reimbursement Obligation is not
          repaid by Borrowers as provided in this Section 2.1(c)(v) (or any such payment by Borrowers is rescinded or set aside for any reason), such L/C Issuer shall promptly notify Agent of such failure and,
          irrespective of whether such notice is given, such L/C Reimbursement Obligation shall be payable on demand by Borrowers with interest thereon computed from the date on which such L/C Reimbursement Obligation arose to the L/C Reimbursement Date,
          at the interest rate set forth in the L/C Reimbursement Agreement or, if no interest rate is set forth therein, the interest rate applicable during such period to the Revolving Credit Facility.

          

        

    (vi)        Reimbursement

              Obligations of the Revolving Credit Lenders.

          

        

    (1)           Upon receipt of the notice
        described in clause (v) above from Agent, each Lender shall pay to Agent for the account of such L/C Issuer its Allocation Percentage of such Letter of Credit Obligations (as such amount may be
        reallocated pursuant to Section 2.11(e)(ii)).

     

      

    
      38

      
        

    

    (2)          By making any
          payments described in clause (1) above (other than during the continuation of an Event of Default under Section 8.1(f) or 8.1(g)),

          such Lender shall be deemed to have made a Revolving Loan to the Borrowers, which, upon receipt thereof by Agent for the benefit of such L/C Issuer, the Borrowers shall be deemed to have used in whole to repay such L/C Reimbursement Obligation. 
          Any such payment that is not deemed a Revolving Loan shall be deemed a funding by such Lender of its participation in the applicable Letter of Credit and the Letter of Credit Obligation in respect of the related L/C Reimbursement Obligations. 
          Such participation shall not otherwise be required to be funded.  Following receipt by any L/C Issuer of any payment from any Lender pursuant to this clause (vi) with respect to any portion of any L/C
          Reimbursement Obligation, such L/C Issuer shall promptly pay to Agent, for the benefit of such Lender, all amounts received by such L/C Issuer (or to the extent such amounts shall have been received by Agent for the benefit of such L/C Issuer,
          Agent shall promptly pay to such Lender all amounts received by Agent for the benefit of such L/C Issuer) with respect to such portion.

     

        

    (vii)       Obligations Absolute.  The obligations of the Borrowers and the Lenders pursuant to clauses (iv), (v) and (vi) above shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable and performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement irrespective of (A) (i) the invalidity or unenforceability of any term or
          provision in any Letter of Credit, any document transferring or purporting to transfer a Letter of Credit, any Loan Document (including the sufficiency of any such instrument), or any modification to any provision of any of the foregoing, (ii)
          any document presented under a Letter of Credit being forged, fraudulent, invalid, insufficient or inaccurate in any respect or failing to comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit or (iii) any loss or delay, including in the transmission of
          any document, (B) the existence of any setoff, claim, abatement, recoupment, defense or other right that any Person (including any Credit Party) may have against the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or any other Person, whether in connection
          with any Loan Document or any other Contractual Obligation or transaction, or the existence of any other withholding, abatement or reduction, (C) in the case of the obligations of any Lender, (i) the failure of any condition precedent set forth
          in Section 3.2 to be satisfied (each of which conditions precedent the Lenders hereby irrevocably waive) or (ii) any adverse change in the condition (financial or otherwise) of any Credit Party and
          (D) any other act or omission to act or delay of any kind of Agent, any Lender or any other Person or any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this clause (vii), constitute a legal or equitable discharge of any obligation of the Borrowers or any Lender hereunder.  No provision hereof shall be deemed to waive or limit the Borrowers’ right to seek
          repayment of any payment of any L/C Reimbursement Obligations from the L/C Issuer under the terms of the applicable L/C Reimbursement Agreement or applicable law

     

        

    (d)          Swingline

              Loans.

     

          

    (i)         Availability.  Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and in reliance upon the representations and warranties of the Credit Parties contained herein, the
          Swingline Lender may, in its sole and absolute discretion, make Loans (each a “Swingline Loan”) available to the Borrowers under the Revolving Loan Allocations from time
          to time on any Business Day during the period from the Closing Date through the Revolving Termination Date in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding not to exceed its Swingline Allocation.  In connection with the making of any
          Swingline Loan, the Swingline Lender may but shall not be required to determine that, or take notice whether, the conditions precedent set forth in Section 3.2 have been satisfied or waived.  Each
          Swingline Loan must be repaid as provided herein, but in any event must be repaid in full on the Revolving Termination Date.  Within the limits set forth in the first sentence of this clause

              (i), amounts of Swingline Loans repaid may be reborrowed under this clause (i).

     

        

    
      39

      
        

    

    (ii)         Borrowing Procedures.  In order to request a Swingline Loan, the Borrower Representative shall give to Agent a notice to be received not later than 10:00 a.m. (prevailing Eastern time) on the day of the
          proposed Borrowing (which shall be a Business Day), which shall be made in a writing or in an Electronic Transmission substantially in the form of Exhibit 2.1(d) or in a writing in any other form
          acceptable to Agent duly completed (a “Swingline Request”).  Agent shall promptly notify the Swingline
          Lender of the details of the requested Swingline Loan. Upon receipt of such notice and subject to the terms of this Agreement, the Swingline Lender may make a Swingline Loan available to the Borrowers by making the proceeds thereof available to Agent and, in turn, Agent shall make such proceeds
            available to the Borrowers on the date set forth in the relevant
          Swingline Request.

     

        

    (iii)        Refinancing

              Swingline Loans.

          

        

    (1)          The Swingline
          Lender may at any time (and shall, no less frequently than once each week) forward a demand to Agent (which Agent shall, upon receipt, forward to each Lender) that each Lender pay to Agent, for the account of the Swingline Lender, such Lender’s
          Allocation Percentage of the outstanding Swingline Loans (as such amount may be reallocated pursuant to Section 2.11(e)(ii)).

     

        

    (2)          Each Lender shall
          pay the amount owing by it to Agent for the account of the Swingline Lender by 4:00 p.m. (prevailing Eastern time) on the date of receipt of notice or demand therefor.  Upon receipt by Agent of such payment (other than during the continuation of
          any Event of Default under Section 8.1(f) or 8.1(g)), such Lender shall be deemed to have made a Revolving Loan to the Borrower, which, upon receipt of
          such payment by the Swingline Lender from Agent, the Borrowers shall be deemed to have used in whole to refinance such Swingline Loan.  In addition, regardless of whether any such demand is made, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default under
          Section 8.1(f) or 8.1(g), each Lender shall be deemed to have acquired, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation in each
          Swingline Loan in an amount equal to such Lender’s Allocation Percentage of such Swingline Loan.  If any payment made by any Lender as a result of any such demand is not deemed a Revolving Loan, such payment shall be deemed a funding by such
          Lender of such participation.  Such participation shall not be otherwise required to be funded.  Upon receipt by the Swingline Lender of any payment from any Lender pursuant to this clause (iii) with
          respect to any portion of any Swingline Loan, the Swingline Lender shall promptly pay over to such Lender all payments of principal (to the extent received after such payment by such Lender) and interest (to the extent accrued with respect to
          periods after such payment) on account of such Swingline Loan received by the Swingline Lender with respect to such portion.

     

        

    (iv)       Obligation to Fund Absolute.  Each Lender’s obligations pursuant to clause (iii) above shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable and shall be performed
          strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances whatsoever, including (A) the existence of any setoff, claim, abatement, recoupment, defense or other right that such Lender, any Affiliate thereof or any
          other Person may have against the Swingline Lender, Agent, any other Lender or L/C Issuer or any other Person, (B) the failure of any condition precedent set forth in Section 3.2 to be satisfied or
          the failure of the Borrower Representative to deliver a Swingline Request (each of which requirements the Lenders hereby irrevocably waive) and (C) any adverse change in the condition (financial or otherwise) of any Credit Party.

     

        

    
      40

      
        

    

    2.2         Evidence of Loans.  This Agreement evidences the obligation of the Borrower to repay each Revolving Loan, Floorplan Loan and Swingline Loan and is being executed as a
          “noteless” credit agreement.

     

        

    2.3          Interest.

     

      

    (a)         Subject to Sections 2.3(d) and 2.3(e), (a) each Revolving Loan and Swingline Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the date when made
          at a rate per annum equal to the LIBOR Rate plus the Applicable Margin and (b) each Floorplan Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the Floorplan Funding Date with
          respect to such Floorplan Loan at a rate per annum equal to the LIBOR Rate plus the Applicable Margin.  Each determination of an interest rate by Agent shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrowers
          and the Lenders in the absence of manifest error.  All computations of fees and interest payable under this Agreement shall be made on the basis of a 360-day year and actual days elapsed.  Interest and fees shall accrue during each period during
          which interest or such fees are computed from the first day thereof to the last day thereof.

     

        

    (b)         Interest on
          Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans.

     

        

    (i)          Interest on each
          Revolving Loan and Swingline Loan shall be paid in arrears not less frequently than monthly as set forth on the billing statement as described in Section 2.3(b)(ii) below.  All accrued and unpaid
          interest shall also be paid on Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans on the Revolving Termination Date.

     

        

    (ii)        Agent will transmit,
          send or otherwise make available to Borrowers a monthly billing statement identifying all interest, fees and charges due on Borrowers’ account with Agent.  The charges specified on each billing statement will, notwithstanding anything herein to
          the contrary, be (A) due and payable in full immediately on receipt, and (B) an account stated, unless Agent receives Borrowers’ written objection thereto within thirty (30) days after the earlier of (1) the date made available to Borrowers by
          EDI or other Electronic Transmission, or (2) receipt by Borrowers. Borrower shall pay Agent, for its own account, CDF’s customary charge for any check or other item which is returned unpaid to Agent and for each ACH debit rejected by Borrowers’
          bank. Agent may adjust the billing statement at any time to conform to applicable Law and this Agreement.  Borrower waives the right to direct the application of any payments hereafter received by Agent on account of the Indebtedness.  Agent will
          have the continuing exclusive right to apply and reapply any and all such payments in such manner as Agent may deem advisable notwithstanding any entry by Agent upon its books and records.

     

        

    (c)          Interest on each
          Floorplan Loan shall accrue as provided herein and be paid according to the terms of the applicable Transaction Statement.

     

        

    (d)         At the election of
          Agent or the Required Lenders while any Event of Default exists (or automatically while any Event of Default under Section 8.1(f) or 8.1(g) exists), the
          Borrowers shall pay interest (after as well as before entry of judgment thereon to the extent permitted by law) on the Loans under the Loan Documents from and after the date of occurrence of such Event of Default, at a rate per annum which is
          determined by adding two percent (2.0%) per annum to the Applicable Margin then in effect for such Loans (plus the LIBOR Rate).  All such interest shall be payable on demand of Agent or the Required Lenders.

          

        

    (e)          Anything herein to
          the contrary notwithstanding, the obligations of Borrowers hereunder shall be subject to the limitation that payments of interest shall not be required, for any period for which interest is computed hereunder, to the extent (but only to the
          extent) that contracting for or receiving such payment by the respective Lender would be contrary to the provisions of any law applicable to such Lender limiting the highest rate of interest which may be lawfully
          contracted for, charged or received by such Lender, and in such event Borrowers shall pay such Lender interest at the highest rate permitted by applicable law (“Maximum Lawful
            Rate”).

     

        

    
      41

      
        

    

    (f)          Special

              Provisions Applicable to LIBOR Rate.

     

        

    (i)          The LIBOR Rate may
          be adjusted by Agent with respect to any Lender on a prospective basis to take into account any additional or increased costs to such Lender of maintaining or obtaining any eurodollar deposits or increased costs (other than Taxes which shall be
          governed by Section 11.2), in each case, due to changes in applicable law occurring subsequent to the commencement of the then applicable Interest Period, including any Changes in Law and changes in
          the reserve requirements imposed by the Board of Governors, which additional or increased costs would increase the cost of funding or maintaining loans bearing interest at the LIBOR Rate.  In any such event, the affected Lender shall give
          Borrowers and Agent notice of such a determination and adjustment and Agent promptly shall transmit the notice to each other Lender and, upon its receipt of the notice from the affected Lender, Borrowers may, by notice to such affected Lender
          require such Lender to furnish to Borrowers a statement setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for adjusting such LIBOR Rate and the method for determining the amount of such adjustment.

     

        

    (ii)         Subject to the
          provisions set forth in Section 2.3(f)(iii) below, in the event that any change in market conditions or any Change in Law shall at any time after the date hereof, in the reasonable opinion of any
          Lender, make it unlawful or impractical for such Lender to determine or charge interest rates at the LIBOR Rate, such Lender shall give notice of such changed circumstances to Agent and Borrowers and Agent promptly shall transmit the notice to
          each other Lender and (y) in the case of any Loans of such Lender that are outstanding, the date specified in such Lender’s notice shall be deemed to be the last day of the Interest Period of such Loan, and interest upon the Loans of such Lender
          thereafter shall accrue interest at the rate then applicable to Base Rate Loans, and (z) Borrowers shall not be entitled to elect the LIBOR option until such Lender determines that it would no longer be unlawful or impractical to do so.

     

        

    (iii)        Benchmark Replacement Setting.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document (and any Secured Rate Contract shall be deemed not to be a “Loan Document” for purposes of this Section 2.3(f)(iii)):

     

        

    (A)         Replacing the LIBOR Rate or other USD LIBOR. On March 5, 2021, the ICE Benchmark Administration, the administrator of  USD LIBOR (such administrator or any successor administrator collectively, “LIBOR Administrator”) and the Financial Conduct Authority (“FCA”), the regulatory supervisor of
          LIBOR Administrator, announced in public statements the future cessation or loss of representativeness of overnight/Spot Next, 1-month, 3-month, 6-month and 12- month USD LIBOR tenor settings. On the earlier of (i) the date that all Available
          Tenors of USD LIBOR have either permanently or indefinitely ceased to be provided by LIBOR Administrator or the date as of which all Available Tenors of USD LIBOR have been deemed by the LIBOR Administrator or FCA to be no longer representative
          pursuant to public statement or publication of information and (ii) the Early Opt-in Effective Date, if the then-current Benchmark is USD LIBOR, the Benchmark Replacement as provided in clause (1) of
          the definition thereof will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of any setting of such Benchmark on such day and all subsequent settings without any amendment to, or further action or consent
          of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

     

        

    (B)          Switch to Term SOFR.  If (i) a Term SOFR Transition Event has occurred and (ii) Agent has delivered a Term SOFR Notice prior to any setting of the then-current Benchmark, then the Benchmark Replacement as
          provided in clause (2) of the definition of thereof will replace the then-current Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of such Benchmark setting and subsequent
          Benchmark settings, without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document.  For the avoidance of doubt, Agent shall not be required to deliver a Term SOFR
          Notice after a Term SOFR Transition Event and may elect or not elect to do so in its sole discretion.

     

        

    
      42

      
        

    

    (C)         Replacing Future Benchmarks. Upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, the Benchmark Replacement as provided in clause (3) of the definition thereof
          will replace the then-current Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of any Benchmark setting at or after 5:00 p.m. (prevailing Eastern time) on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the date notice of such
          Benchmark Replacement is provided to the Lenders by Agent without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document so long as the Agent has not received, by such time, written notice
          of objection to such Benchmark Replacement from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders.  At any time that the administrator of the then-current Benchmark has permanently or indefinitely ceased to provide such Benchmark or such Benchmark has been
          announced by the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark pursuant to public statement or publication of information to be no longer representative of the underlying market and economic reality that such Benchmark is intended
          to measure and that representativeness will not be restored, the Borrower Representative may revoke any request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Loans to be made, converted or continued that would bear interest by reference to
          such Benchmark until the Borrower Representative’s receipt of notice from the Agent that a Benchmark Replacement has replaced such Benchmark, and, failing that, the Borrower Representative will be deemed to have converted any such request into a
          request for a Borrowing of or conversion to Base Rate Loans. During the period referenced in the foregoing sentence, the component of Base Rate based upon the Benchmark will not be used in any determination of the Base Rate.

     

        

    (D)         Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. In connection with the implementation and administration of a Benchmark Replacement, the Agent will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes
          from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any
          other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

     

        

    (E)        Notices; Standards for Decisions and Determinations. The Agent will promptly notify the Borrower Representative and the Lenders of (i) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement and (ii) the
          effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Agent or, if applicable, any Lender (or group of Lenders) pursuant to this Section
              2.3(f)(iii), including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action, will be
          conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent from any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 2.3(f)(iii).

     

        

    (F)          Unavailability of Tenor of Benchmark. At any time (including in connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement), (i) if the then-current Benchmark is a term rate (including, without
          limitation, Term SOFR or USD LIBOR), then the Agent may remove any tenor of such Benchmark that is unavailable or non-representative for Benchmark (including Benchmark Replacement) settings and (ii) the Agent may reinstate any such previously
          removed tenor for Benchmark (including Benchmark Replacement) settings.

     

        

    
      43

      
        

    

    2.4         Maintenance of Loan Accounts; Statements of Account

     

            

    

    (a)          Agent, on behalf of
          the Lenders, shall record on its books and records the amount of each Loan made, the interest rate applicable, all payments of principal and interest thereon and the principal balance thereof from time to time outstanding.  Agent shall deliver to
          the Borrower Representative on a monthly basis a loan statement setting forth such record for the immediately preceding calendar month.  Such record shall, absent manifest error, be conclusive evidence of the amount of the
          Loans made by the Lenders to the Borrowers and the interest and payments thereon.  Any failure to so record or any error in doing so, or any failure to deliver such loan statement shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of
          the Borrowers hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to the Loans or provide the basis for any claim against Agent.

     

        

    (b)         Agent, acting as a
          non-fiduciary agent of the Borrowers solely for tax purposes and solely with respect to the actions described in this Section 2.4(b), shall establish and maintain at its address referred to in Section 10.2 (or at such other address as Agent may notify the Borrower Representative) (A) a record of ownership (the “Register”)

          in which Agent agrees to register by book entry the interests (including any rights to receive payment hereunder) of Agent, each Lender and each L/C Issuer in the Floorplan Loans, Revolving Loans, Swingline Loans, L/C Reimbursement Obligations,
          and Letter of Credit Obligations, each of their obligations under this Agreement to participate in each Loan, Letter of Credit, Letter of Credit Obligations, and L/C Reimbursement Obligations, and any assignment of any such interest, obligation
          or right and (B) accounts in the Register in accordance with its usual practice in which it shall record (1) the names and addresses of the Lenders and the L/C Issuers (and each change thereto pursuant to Sections

              10.9 and 10.22), (2) the Allocations of each Lender, (3) the amount of each Loan and each funding of any participation described in clause (A)
          above, (4) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or paid, (5) the amount of the L/C Reimbursement Obligations due and payable or paid in respect of Letters of Credit and (6) any other payment received by Agent from the Borrowers
          or other Credit Party and its application to the Obligations.

          

        

    (c)         Notwithstanding
          anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Loans (including in the case of Revolving Loans, the corresponding obligations to participate in Letter of Credit Obligations and Swingline Loans) and the L/C Reimbursement Obligations are
          registered obligations, the right, title and interest of the Lenders and the L/C Issuers and their assignees in and to such Loans or L/C Reimbursement Obligations, as the case may be, shall be transferable only upon notation of such transfer in
          the Register and no assignment thereof shall be effective until recorded therein.  This Section 2.4 and Section 10.9 shall be construed so that the Loans
          and L/C Reimbursement Obligations are at all times maintained in “registered form” within the meaning of Sections 163(f), 871(h)(2) and 881(c)(2) of the Code.

     

        

    (d)        The Credit Parties,
          Agent, the Lenders and the L/C Issuers shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender or L/C Issuer, as applicable, for all purposes of this Agreement.  Information contained in the Register with respect to any Lender
          or any L/C Issuer shall be available for access by the Borrowers, Agent, such Lender or such L/C Issuer during normal business hours and from time to time upon at least one Business Day’s prior notice.  No Lender or L/C Issuer shall, in such
          capacity, have access to or be otherwise permitted to review any information in the Register other than information with respect to such Lender or L/C Issuer unless otherwise agreed by Agent.

     

        

    2.5         Procedure for Revolving Credit Borrowing.

        

      

    (a)          Each Borrowing of a Revolving Loan
        shall be made in Agent’s sole discretion upon the Borrower Representative’s irrevocable (subject to Section 10.2) written notice delivered to Agent substantially in the form of a Notice of Borrowing or
        in writing in any other form acceptable to Agent, which notice must be received by Agent not later than 10:00 a.m. (prevailing Eastern time) on the requested Borrowing date.  Such Notice of
        Borrowing shall specify (i) the amount of the Borrowing (which shall be in an aggregate minimum principal amount of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000.00)) and (ii) the requested Borrowing date, which shall be a Business Day.

     

        

    (b)         Upon receipt of a Notice of Borrowing, Agent will promptly notify each Lender

          of such Notice of Borrowing, Agent’s determination to fund such Borrowing and of the amount of such Lender’s Allocation Percentage of the Borrowing.

     

          

    
      44

      
        

    

    (c)         Unless Agent is
          otherwise directed in writing by the Borrower Representative, the proceeds of each requested Borrowing after the Closing Date will be made available to the Borrowers by Agent by wire transfer of such amount to the Borrowers pursuant to the wire
          transfer instructions specified on Schedule 10.2.

     

        

    2.6          [Reserved].

        

      

    2.7          Reductions in Allocations; Term and Termination of Allocations.

        

      

    (a)         Reductions in Revolving Loan Allocations and/or Floorplan Loan Allocations.  The Borrowers may at any time upon at least two (2) Business Days’ (or such shorter period as is acceptable to Agent) prior
          written notice by the Borrower Representative to Agent permanently reduce the Aggregate Revolving Loan Allocation and/or the Floorplan Loan Allocations; provided that (i) such reductions shall be in an amount greater than or equal to One Million
          Dollars ($1,000,000.00), (ii) all reductions of either the Aggregate Revolving Loan Allocation or the Aggregate Floorplan Loan Allocation shall be pro rata among the two facilities and pro-rata among the applicable Lenders, provided that
          Borrowers may, at their election choose to allocate a greater than pro rata portion of the reduction toward the Aggregate Revolving Loan Allocation, and (iii) no reduction shall reduce the sum of the Aggregate Floorplan Loan Allocation and the
          Aggregate Revolving Loan Allocation to less than One Hundred Fifty Million Dollars ($150,000,000.00), unless in each case the Revolving Loan Allocations and the Aggregate Floorplan Loan Allocations are reduced to zero.

     

        

    (b)          Term and Termination.

     

        

    (i)         Agent may, in its
          sole and absolute discretion, at any time upon at least ninety (90) days’ prior written notice to Borrower Representative terminate the Floorplan Facility.  Thereafter, no further Approvals shall be issued and no further Floorplan Advances or
          Overtrade Approvals shall be made under the Floorplan Facility.

     

        

    (ii)         Agent may, in its
          sole and absolute discretion, at any time upon at least ninety (90) days’ prior written notice to Borrower Representative terminate the Revolving Credit Facility.  Thereafter, no further Approvals shall be issued and no further Revolving Loans,
          Swingline Loans, or Protective Overadvances shall be made or Letters of Credit Issued under the Revolving Credit Facility.

     

        

    (iii)        Unless sooner
          terminated as provided in this Agreement or by at least ninety (90) days prior written notice from Agent to Borrower Representative or Borrower Representative to Agent, the term of this Agreement shall be for one (1)
          year from the date hereof and from year to year thereafter. Upon any termination of this Agreement, all Indebtedness hereunder shall become immediately due and payable without notice or demand.  Upon any termination, Borrowers shall remain fully
          liable to Agent for all Indebtedness, including without limitation all charges and expenses, arising prior to or after termination, and all of Agent’s rights remedies and its security interest shall continue until all Indebtedness to Agent is
          paid and all Indebtedness of Borrowers is performed in full.  All waivers and indemnifications on Agent’s favor, set forth in this Agreement will survive any termination of this Agreement.

     

        

    
      45

      
        

    

    (iv)        Unless sooner
          terminated as provided in this Agreement, any Lender (the “Terminating Lender”) may terminate in whole, but not in part, such Lender’s Floorplan Loan Allocation and
          Revolving Loan Allocation by providing written notice to Agent and Borrower Representative (each, a “Termination Notice”) of such Lender’s intent to terminate at least
          one hundred twenty (120) days prior to the one (1) year anniversary date of this Agreement or any one year anniversary thereafter (each, a “Renewal Date”). Such
          Termination Notice shall be irrevocable once given (unless revoked in writing more than one hundred twenty (120) days prior to the applicable Renewal Date) and such termination will take effect on the Renewal Date
          immediately following such Termination Notice. Unless the Terminating Lender has assigned its entire Floorplan Loan Allocation and Revolving Loan Allocation in accordance with Section 10.9 of this
          Agreement prior to the applicable Renewal Date, Terminating Lender shall receive payment in full of all Aggregate Outstandings funded by such Terminating Lender and not repaid on or prior to the Renewal Date, together with all accrued and unpaid
          interest thereon and any other amounts due to such Lender under this Agreement (the “Termination Payment”), payable on the Renewal Date as follows:  (A) to the extent
          the amount of the Termination Payment does not exceed the unused amount of the Floorplan Loan Allocations and the Revolving Loan Allocations of the remaining Lenders, as applicable, the remaining Lenders will fund their respective Floorplan Loan
          Allocations and Revolving Loan Allocations in their proportionate share of an aggregate amount up to, but not to exceed, the lesser of (1) the Termination Payment and (2) such remaining Lenders’ aggregate Revolving Loan Allocation and Floorplan
          Loan Allocation (but in no event shall any remaining Lender be required to fund any amount in excess of its Revolving Loan Allocation or Floorplan Loan Allocation, as applicable) and (B) to the extent the amount of the Termination Payment exceeds
          the unused amount of the aggregate Floorplan Loan Allocations and Revolving Loan Allocations of the remaining Lenders, as applicable, Borrowers will pay such excess amount to Agent for the benefit of the Terminating Lender. Upon such payments,
          the Terminating Lender’s Floorplan Loan Allocations and Revolving Loan Allocations shall be reduced to zero and the Aggregate Floorplan Loan Allocations and the Aggregate Revolving Loan Allocations shall be reduced by the amount of the
          Terminating Lender’s Floorplan Loan Allocations and Revolving Loan Allocations, as applicable.

     

        

    (c)          Notices.  Notice of prepayment or commitment reduction pursuant to clauses (a) and (b) above shall not thereafter
          be revocable by the Borrowers and Agent will promptly notify each Lender thereof and of such Lender’s Allocation Percentage of such prepayment or reduction.  The payment amount specified in a notice of prepayment or reduction shall be due and
          payable on the date specified therein.  Together with each prepayment under this Section 2.7, the Borrowers shall pay any other amounts required pursuant to this Agreement. Notwithstanding the
          foregoing, any Notice of a prepayment or commitment reduction delivered in connection with any refinancing of the facilities provided hereunder may be, if expressly so stated to be, contingent upon the consummation of such refinancing, incurrence
          of refinancing Indebtedness or issuance of equity and may be revoked by the Borrower in the event such refinancing, incurrence or issuance is not consummated.

     

        

    2.8          Repayments, Mandatory Payments of Loans and Allocation Reductions.

     

      

    (a)          Repayments.

     

          

    (i)         Floorplan Loan.  The Borrowers shall make payments of principal on each Floorplan Loan on the last day of the free floorplan period with respect to the Borrower Invoice(s) related thereto.  The Borrowers
          shall repay to Agent for the benefit of the Lenders in full on the Floorplan Termination Date the aggregate principal amount of the Floorplan Loans outstanding
          on the Floorplan Termination Date, together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon.

     

        

    (ii)         Revolving Loan.  The Borrowers shall repay to Agent for the benefit of the Lenders in full on the Revolving Termination Date the aggregate principal amount of the Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans outstanding on the Revolving Termination Date, together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon.

     

        

    (b)         Mandatory Payments.

     

          

    
      46

      
        

    

    (i)          Maximum Amounts.  Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, at no time shall:

     

        

    (A)        the then outstanding principal balance of
        Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans exceed the lesser of either (1) One Hundred Million Dollars ($100,000,000.00), or (2) the Maximum Floorplan Amount minus the Aggregate Floorplan Outstandings,

     

      

    (B)          the Aggregate
          Floorplan Outstandings exceed the Maximum Floorplan Amount;

     

        

    (C)          the Aggregate
          Outstandings exceed the Maximum Floorplan Amount; or

     

        

    (D)          (1) the sum of (y) the Aggregate Outstandings plus (z) Overtrade Approvals exceed (2)
          the sum of (y) the Maximum Floorplan Amount plus (z) the Maximum Overtrade Amount.

     

        

    If, at any time the limits set forth in this Section 2.8 are exceeded, Borrowers will immediately repay
      to Agent the amount of such excess to be applied to the outstanding principal balance of: (x) first the Swingline Loans and second the Revolving Loans (with
      respect to an excess of the limit set forth in clause (b)(i)(A) above); (y) the Floorplan Loans (with respect to an excess of the limit set forth in clause (b)(i)(B)
      above), or (z) Loans under either facility, to be applied to first the Swingline Loans, second the
      Revolving Loans, and third the Floorplan Loans (with respect to an excess of the limit set forth in clause (b)(i)(C) above).

     

    

    (c)         Gross Borrowing Base.  If at any time the Aggregate Outstandings (excluding any Open Approvals, Overtrade Approvals or Protective Overadvances) exceed the lesser of (1) the Maximum Floorplan Amount or (2)
          the Gross Borrowing Base, Borrowers shall immediately prepay outstanding Loans in an amount sufficient to eliminate such excess in accordance herewith to be applied first to repay outstanding
          Swingline Loans, second to repay outstanding Revolving Loans without permanent
          reduction of the Aggregate Revolving Loan Allocation, and third to prepay outstanding Floorplan Loans.

     

        

    2.9          Fees.

     

      

    (a)          Unused Commitment Fee.  The Borrowers shall pay to Agent the Unused Commitment Fee for
          the account of each Lender, calculated on an annualized rate basis, by multiplying the Daily Unused Total Facility for any calendar month of the Aggregate Floorplan Loan Allocation, by the “Unused Fee” set forth in the table below. The aggregate
          Unused Commitment Fee for each calendar month shall be payable monthly in arrears and due pursuant to the monthly billing statement due to agent provided.  Once received by CDF, an Unused Commitment Fee shall not be refundable by CDF for any
          reason.

     

        

    
      	
              If Floorplan Utilization is:

            	
              Then the Unused Fee (%) for 

              the next calendar month shall 

              be:

            
	 	 
	
              Less than or equal to twenty percent (20%)

            	
              0.25%

            
	 	 
	
              Greater than twenty percent (20%) but less than or equal to thirty percent (30%)

            	
              0.125%

            
	 	 
	
              Greater than thirty percent (30%)

            	
              0.00%

            

    

    

    

    
      47

      
        

    

    (b)         Letter of Credit Fee.  Borrowers agree to pay to Agent for the ratable benefit of the Lenders, as compensation to such Lenders for Letter of Credit Obligations incurred hereunder, (i) without duplication
          of costs and expenses otherwise payable to Agent or Lenders hereunder or fees otherwise paid by the Borrower, all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Agent or any Lender on account of such Letter of Credit Obligations, and (ii) for each
          calendar month during which any Letter of Credit Obligation shall remain outstanding, a fee (the “Letter of Credit Fee”) in an amount equal to the product of the daily
          undrawn face amount of all Letters of Credit Issued, and outstanding multiplied by the Applicable Margin; provided, however, at Agent’s or Required Lenders’ option, while an Event of Default exists (or automatically while an Event of Default
          under Section 8.1(a), 8.1(f) or 8.1(g) exists), such rate shall be increased by two percent (2.00%) per
          annum.  Such fee shall be paid to Agent for the benefit of the Lenders in arrears, on the first day of each calendar month and on the date on which all L/C Reimbursement Obligations have been discharged.  In addition, the Borrowers shall pay to
          Agent, any L/C Issuer or any prospective L/C Issuer, as appropriate, on demand, such L/C Issuer’s or prospective L/C Issuer’s customary fees at then prevailing rates, without duplication of fees otherwise payable hereunder (including all per
          annum fees), charges and expenses of such L/C Issuer or prospective L/C Issuer in respect of the application for, and the Issuance, negotiation, acceptance, amendment, transfer and payment of, each Letter of Credit or otherwise payable pursuant
          to the application and related documentation under which such Letter of Credit is Issued.

     

        

    2.10        Payments by the Credit Parties.

     

      

    (a)         Except as provided
          in Article XI, all payments (including prepayments) to be made by each Credit Party on account of principal, interest, fees and other amounts required hereunder shall be made without set‐off,
          recoupment, counterclaim or deduction of any kind, shall, except as otherwise expressly provided herein, be made to Agent (for the ratable account of the Persons entitled thereto) at the address for payment specified in Schedule 10.2 (or such other address as Agent may from time to time specify in accordance with Section 10.2), including payments utilizing the ACH system, and shall be made in
          Dollars and by wire transfer or ACH transfer in immediately available funds (which shall be the exclusive means of payment hereunder), no later than 4:00 p.m. (prevailing Eastern time) on the date due. Any payment which is received by Agent later
          than 4:00 p.m. (prevailing Eastern time) may in Agent’s discretion be deemed to have been received on the immediately succeeding Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue.  The Borrowers and each other Credit Party
          hereby irrevocably waives the right to direct the application during the continuance of an Event of Default of any and all payments in respect of any Obligation and any proceeds of Collateral.  The Borrowers hereby authorize Agent and each Lender
          to make a Revolving Loan (which may be a Swingline Loan) to pay (i) interest, principal (including Swingline Loans), L/C Reimbursement Obligations, agent fees, Unused Commitment Fees and Letter of Credit Fees, in each instance, on the date due,
          or (ii) after five (5) days’ prior notice to the Borrower Representative, other fees, costs or expenses payable by a Credit Party or any of its Subsidiaries hereunder or under the other Loan Documents.

          

        

    (b)         If any payment hereunder shall be stated to
        be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of interest or fees, as the case may be.

     

      

    (c)        During the
          continuance of an Event of Default, Agent may, and shall upon the direction of Required Lenders, apply any and all payments received by Agent in respect of any Secured Obligation in accordance with clauses first
          through seventh below.  Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, all payments made by Credit Parties to Agent after any or all of the Obligations have been accelerated (so long as such
          acceleration has not been rescinded), including proceeds of Collateral, shall be applied as follows:

     

        

    first,
        to payment of costs and expenses of Agent payable or reimbursable by the Credit Parties under the Loan Documents;

     

      

    
      48

      
        

    

    second,
        to payment of all accrued unpaid interest and principal of the Protective Overadvances to the extent not funded by the Lenders (other than Agent) for any reason;

     

      

    third,
        to payment of Secured Obligations constituting all accrued unpaid interest on the Floorplan Loans, Revolving Loans (including Protective Overadvances to the extent not paid according to clause second,
        above) and Swingline Loans and fees owed to Agent, Lenders and L/C Issuers (other than amounts due under any Secured Rate Contract or Bank Product Agreement);

     

      

    fourth,
        to payment of Secured Obligations constituting unpaid principal of the Floorplan Loans, Revolving Loans (including Protective Overadvances to the extent not paid according to clause second, above) and
        Swingline Loans including, without limitation, L/C Reimbursement Obligations then due and cash collateralization of unmatured L/C Reimbursement Obligations to the extent not then due and payable (other than amounts due under any Secured Rate
        Contract or Bank Product Agreement);

        

      

    fifth,
        to payment of Secured Obligations constituting unpaid principal, interest, fees and all other amounts due under any Secured Rate Contract and ratably, up to the amount (after taking into account any amounts previously paid pursuant to this fifth
        tier during the continuation of the applicable Event of Default) of the most recently established Bank Product Reserve, which amount was established prior to the occurrence of, and not in contemplation of, the subject Event of Default, to the Bank
        Product Providers based upon amounts then certified by the applicable Bank Product Provider to Agent (in form and substance satisfactory to Agent) to be due and payable to such Bank Product Providers on account of Bank Product Obligations;

     

      

    sixth,
        to payment of any other amounts owing constituting Secured Obligations; and

     

      

    seventh,
        any remainder shall be for the account of and paid to whoever may be lawfully entitled thereto.

     

      

    In carrying out the foregoing, (i) amounts received shall be applied in the numerical order provided until exhausted prior to the
      application to the next succeeding category, (ii) each of the Lenders or other Persons entitled to payment shall receive an amount equal to its pro rata share of amounts available to be applied pursuant to clauses fourth, 
      fifth and sixth above and (iii) no payments by a Guarantor and no proceeds of Collateral of a Guarantor shall be applied to Excluded Rate Contract Obligations
      of such Guarantor.

      

    

    2.11        Payments by the Lenders to Agent; Settlement on Revolving Loans.

     

      

    (a)          Agent may, on behalf of Lenders, disburse
        funds to the Borrowers for Revolving Loans requested and Agent’s determination to approve a Revolving Loan and disburse funds to the Borrowers shall be binding on the Lenders.  Each Lender shall reimburse Agent on demand for all funds disbursed on
        its behalf by Agent, or if Agent so requests, each Lender will remit to Agent its Allocation Percentage of any Revolving Loan before Agent disburses same to the Borrowers.  If Agent elects to require that each Lender make funds available to Agent
        prior to disbursement by Agent to the Borrowers, Agent shall advise each Lender by telephone, fax or email of the amount of such Lender’s Allocation Percentage of the Revolving Loan requested by the Borrowers no later 12:00 p.m. (prevailing Eastern
        time) on the scheduled Borrowing date applicable thereto, and each such Lender shall pay Agent such Lender’s Allocation Percentage of such requested Revolving Loan, in same day funds, by wire transfer to

        Agent’s account, according to the wire transfer instructions specified on Schedule 10.2, no later than 4:00 p.m. (prevailing Eastern time) on such scheduled Borrowing date.  Nothing in this Section 2.11(a) or elsewhere in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, including the remaining provisions of Section 2.11, shall be deemed to require Agent
        to advance funds on behalf of any Lender or to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its commitments hereunder or to prejudice any rights that Agent, any Lender or the Borrowers may have against any Lender as a result of any default by
        such Lender hereunder.

     

      

    
      49

      
        

    

    (b)         On each Settlement
          Date, Agent shall advise each Lender by telephone, fax or email of the amount of such Lender’s Allocation Percentage of principal, interest and Fees paid for the benefit of Lenders with respect to each applicable Revolving Loan.  Agent shall pay
          to each Lender such Lender’s Allocation Percentage (except as otherwise provided in Section 2.1(c)(vi), Section 2.11(e) and Section 10.9(h)) of principal, interest and fees paid by the Borrowers since the previous Settlement Date for the benefit of such Lender on the Revolving Loans held by it.  Such payments shall be made by wire transfer to
          such Lender not later than 4:00 p.m. (prevailing Eastern time) on each Settlement Date.

     

        

    (c)         Agent may assume that each Lender will make its Allocation Percentage of each
          Revolving Loan available to Agent on each Borrowing date.  If such

          Allocation Percentage is not, in fact, paid to Agent by such Lender when due, Agent will be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Lender without setoff, counterclaim or deduction of any kind.  If any Lender fails to pay the amount of its Allocation Percentage forthwith upon Agent’s demand, Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower Representative and
          the Borrowers shall immediately repay such amount to Agent.  Nothing in
            this Section 2.11(c) shall be deemed to require Agent to advance funds on behalf of any Lender or to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its commitments hereunder or to prejudice any rights that the Borrowers may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder.  Without limiting the provisions of Section 2.11(b), to the extent that Agent

          advances funds to the Borrowers on behalf of any Lender and is not reimbursed therefor on the same Business Day as such advance is made,
          Agent shall be entitled to retain for its account all interest accrued on such advance from the date such advance was made until

          reimbursed by the applicable Lender.

     

        

    (d)         Return of Payments.  If Agent pays an amount to a Lender under this Agreement in the belief or expectation that a related payment has been or will be received by Agent from the Borrowers and such related
          payment is not received by Agent, then Agent will be entitled to recover such amount from such Lender on demand without setoff, counterclaim or deduction of any kind, together with interest accruing at the Federal Funds Rate. If Agent determines
          at any time that any amount received by Agent under this Agreement or any other Loan Document must be returned to any Credit Party or paid to any other Person pursuant to any insolvency law or otherwise, then, notwithstanding any other term or
          condition of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, Agent will not be required to distribute any portion thereof to any Lender.  In addition, each Lender will repay to Agent on demand any portion of such amount that Agent has distributed to
          such Lender, together with interest at such rate, if any, as Agent is required to pay to the Borrowers or such other Person, without setoff, counterclaim or deduction of any kind, and Agent will be entitled to set-off against future distributions
          to such Lender any such amounts (with interest) that are not repaid on demand.

     

        

    (e)          Non-Funding Lenders and Impacted Lenders; Procedures.

     

        

    (i)          Responsibility.  The failure of any Non-Funding Lender to make any Revolving Loan, Floorplan Loan, Letter of Credit Obligation or any payment required by it, or to make any payment required by it under any
          Loan Document, or to fund any purchase of any participation to be made or funded by it (including, without limitation, with respect to any Swingline Loan) on the date specified therefor shall not relieve any other Lender (each such other Lender,
          an “Other Lender”) of its obligations to make such loan, fund the purchase of any such participation, or make any other such required payment on such date, and neither
          Agent nor, other than as expressly set forth herein, any Other Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any Non-Funding Lender to make a loan, fund the purchase of a participation or make any other required payment under any Loan Document.

     

        

    
      50

      
        

    

    (ii)        Reallocation.  If any Lender is a Non-Funding Lender, all or a portion of such Non-Funding Lender’s Letter of Credit Obligations (unless such Lender is the L/C Issuer that Issued such Letter of Credit) and reimbursement obligations with respect to
          Swingline Loans shall, at Agent’s election at any time or upon any L/C Issuer’s or Swingline Lender’s, as applicable, written request delivered to Agent (whether before or after the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default), be reallocated to and assumed by the Lenders that are not Non-Funding

          Lenders or Impacted Lender pro rata in accordance with their Allocation Percentages of the Aggregate Revolving Loan Allocation (calculated as if the Non-Funding Lender’s Allocation Percentage was reduced to zero and each other Lender’s (other than any other Non-Funding Lender’s or Impacted Lender’s)
          Allocation Percentage had been increased proportionately), provided that no
          Lender shall be reallocated any such amounts or be required to fund any amounts that would cause the sum of its outstanding Revolving Loans, outstanding Letter of Credit Obligations, amounts of its participations in Swingline Loans and its pro rata share of unparticipated amounts in Swingline Loans to exceed its Revolving

          Loan Allocation.

     

          

    (iii)        Voting Rights.  Notwithstanding anything set forth herein to the contrary, including Section 10.1, any Lender that is a Non-Funding Lender or Impacted Lender
          shall not have any voting or consent rights under or with respect to any Loan Document or constitute a “Lender” (or be, or have its Loans and Allocations, included in the determination of “Required Lenders” or “Lenders directly affected” pursuant
          to Section 10.1) for any voting or consent rights under or with respect to any Loan Document, provided that (A)  the Allocation of a Non-Funding Lender or Impacted Lender may not be increased,
          extended or reinstated, (B) the principal of a Non-Funding Lender’s or Impacted Lender’s Loans may not be reduced or forgiven, and (C) the interest rate applicable to Obligations owing to a Non-Funding Lender or Impacted Lender may not be reduced
          in such a manner that by its terms affects such Non-Funding Lender or Impacted Lender more adversely than other Lenders, in each case without the consent of such Non-Funding Lender or Impacted Lender.  Moreover, for the purposes of determining
          Required Lenders, the Loans, Letter of Credit Obligations, and Allocations held by Non-Funding Lenders or Impacted Lenders shall be excluded from the total Loans and Allocations outstanding.

     

        

    (iv)       Borrower Payments to a Non-Funding Lender.  Agent shall be authorized to use all payments received by Agent for the benefit of any Non-Funding Lender pursuant to this Agreement to pay in full the Aggregate
          Excess Funding Amount to the appropriate Secured Parties.  Following such payment in full of the Aggregate Excess Funding Amount, Agent shall be entitled to hold such funds as cash collateral in a non-interest bearing account up to an amount
          equal to such Non-Funding Lender’s unfunded Revolving Loan Allocation and/or unfunded Floorplan Loan Allocation and to use such amount to pay such Non-Funding Lender’s funding obligations hereunder until the Obligations are paid in full in cash,
          all Letter of Credit Obligations have been discharged or cash collateralized and all commitments under this Agreement have been terminated.  Upon any such unfunded obligations owing by a Non-Funding Lender becoming due and payable, Agent shall be
          authorized to use such cash collateral to make such payment on behalf of such Non-Funding Lender.  With respect to such Non-Funding Lender’s failure to fund Revolving Loans or purchase participations in Letters of Credit or
          Letter of Credit Obligations, any amounts applied by Agent to satisfy such funding shortfalls shall be deemed to constitute a Revolving Loan or amount of the participation required to be funded and, if necessary to effectuate the foregoing, the
          other Lenders shall be deemed to have sold, and such Non-Funding Lender shall be deemed to have purchased, Revolving Loans or Letter of Credit participation interests from the other Lenders until such time as the aggregate amount of the Revolving
          Loans and participations in Letters of Credit and Letter of Credit Obligations are held by the Lenders in accordance with their Allocation Percentages of the Aggregate Revolving Loan Allocation.  In the event that Agent is holding cash collateral
          of a Non-Funding Lender that cures pursuant to clause (v) below or ceases to be a Non-Funding Lender pursuant to the definition of Non-Funding Lender, Agent shall return the unused portion of such
          cash collateral to such Lender. The “Aggregate Excess Funding Amount” of a Non-Funding Lender shall be the aggregate amount of (A) all unpaid obligations owing by such
          Lender to Agent, L/C Issuers, Swingline Lender, and other Lenders under the Loan Documents, including such Lender’s pro rata share of all Revolving Loans, Floorplan Loans, Letter of Credit Obligations and Swingline Loans, plus, without
          duplication, (B) all amounts of such Non-Funding Lender’s Letter of Credit Obligations and reimbursement obligations with respect to Swingline Loans reallocated to other Lenders pursuant to Section 2.11(e)(ii).

     

        

    
      51

      
        

    

    (v)         Cure.  A Lender may cure its status as a Non-Funding Lender under clause (a) of the definition of Non-Funding Lender if such Lender (A) fully pays to Agent, on
          behalf of the applicable Secured Parties, the Aggregate Excess Funding Amount, plus all interest due thereon and (B) timely funds the next Revolving Loan and/or Floorplan Loan required to be funded by such Lender or makes the next reimbursement
          required to be made by such Lender. A Lender may cure its status as an Impacted Lender if such Lender provides assurances satisfactory to Agent that such Lender will not become a Non-Funding Lender.   Any such cure shall not relieve any Lender
          from liability for breaching its contractual obligations hereunder.

     

        

    (vi)        Fees.  A Lender that is a Non-Funding Lender or Impacted Lender pursuant to clause (a) of the definition of Non-Funding Lender shall not earn and shall not be
          entitled to receive, and the Borrowers shall not be required to pay, such Lender’s portion of the Unused Commitment Fee during the time such Lender is a Non-Funding Lender or Impacted Lender pursuant to clause
              (a) thereof.  In the event that any reallocation of Letter of Credit Obligations occurs pursuant to Section 2.11(e)(ii), during the period of time that such reallocation remains in
          effect, the Letter of Credit Fee payable with respect to such reallocated portion shall be payable to (A) all Lenders based on their pro rata share of such reallocation or (B) to the L/C Issuer for any remaining portion not reallocated to any
          other Lenders.

     

        

    (f)         Procedures.  Agent is hereby authorized by each Credit Party and each other Secured Party to establish procedures (and to amend such procedures from time to time) to facilitate administration and servicing
          of the Loans and other matters incidental thereto.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Agent is hereby authorized to establish procedures to make available or deliver, or to accept, notices, documents and similar items on, by
          posting to or submitting and/or completion on, E-Systems.

     

        

    (g)          Erroneous Payments.

     

          

    (i)          Each Lender, each
          other Secured Party, and any other party hereto hereby severally agrees that if (A) the Agent notifies (which such notice shall be conclusive absent manifest error) such Lender or any other Secured Party (or the Affiliate of a Lender or any other
          Secured Party) or any other Person that has received funds from the Agent or any of its Affiliates, either for its own account or on behalf of a Lender or other Secured Party (each such recipient, a “Payment Recipient”), that the Agent has determined in its sole discretion that any funds received by such Payment Recipient were erroneously transmitted to, or otherwise erroneously or
          mistakenly received by, such Payment Recipient (whether or not known to such Payment Recipient) or (B) any Payment Recipient receives any payment from the Agent (or any of its Affiliates) (1) that is in a different amount than, or on a different
          date from, that specified in a notice of payment, prepayment or repayment sent by the Agent (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such payment, prepayment or repayment, as applicable, (2) that was not preceded or accompanied by a notice of
          payment, prepayment or repayment sent by the Agent (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such payment, prepayment or repayment, as applicable, or (3) that such Payment Recipient otherwise becomes aware was transmitted or received in error or
          by mistake (in whole or in part) then, in each case, an error in payment shall be presumed to have been made (any such amounts specified in clauses (A) or (B)
          of this Section 2.11(g)(i), whether received as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise; individually and collectively, an “Erroneous Payment”), then, in each case, such Payment Recipient is deemed to have knowledge of such error at the time of its receipt of such Erroneous Payment; provided that nothing in this Section 2.11(g) shall require the Agent to provide any of the notices specified in clauses (A) or (B) above. Each
          Payment Recipient agrees that it shall not assert any right or claim to any Erroneous Payment, and hereby waives any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by the Agent for
          the return of any Erroneous Payments, including without limitation waiver of any defense based on “discharge for value” or any similar doctrine.

     

        

    
      52

      
        

    

    (ii)         Without limiting
          the immediately preceding clause (i), each Payment Recipient agrees that, in the case of clause (i)(B) above, it shall promptly notify the Agent in
          writing of such occurrence.

          

        

    (iii)        In the case of
          either clause (i)(A) or (i)(B) above, such Erroneous Payment shall at all times remain the property of the Agent and shall be segregated by the Payment
          Recipient and held in trust for the benefit of the Agent, and upon demand from the Agent such Payment Recipient shall (or, shall cause any Person who received any portion of an Erroneous Payment on its behalf to), promptly, but in all events no
          later than one Business Day thereafter, return to the Agent the amount of any such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made in same day funds and in the currency so received, together with interest thereon in
          respect of each day from and including the date such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Payment Recipient to the date such amount is repaid to the Agent at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by
          the Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect.

     

        

    (iv)        In the event that an
          Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered by the Agent for any reason, after demand therefor by the Agent in accordance with the immediately preceding clause (iii), from any Lender that
          is a Payment Recipient or an Affiliate of a Payment Recipient (such unrecovered amount as to such Lender, an “Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency”), then at the sole
          discretion of the Agent and upon the Agent’s written notice to such Lender such Lender shall be deemed to have made a cashless assignment of the full face amount of the portion of its Loans (but not its Allocation commitment) with respect to
          which such Erroneous Payment was made to the Agent or, at the option of the Agent, the Agent’s applicable lending affiliate in an amount that is equal to the Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency (or such lesser amount as the Agent may specify)
          (such assignment of the Loans (but not Allocation commitment), the “Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment”) plus any accrued and unpaid interest on such assigned
          amount, without further consent or approval of any party hereto and without any payment by the Agent or its applicable lending affiliate as the assignee of such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment.  Without limitation of its rights hereunder,
          the Agent may cancel any Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment at any time by written notice to the applicable assigning Lender and upon such revocation all of the Loans assigned pursuant to such Erroneous Payment
          Deficiency Assignment shall be reassigned to such Lender without any requirement for payment or other consideration.  The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that (A) any assignment contemplated in this clause
              (iv) shall be made without any requirement for any payment or other consideration paid by the applicable assignee or received by the assignor, (B) the provisions of this clause (iv)
          shall govern in the event of any conflict with the terms and conditions of Section 10.9 and (C) the Agent may reflect such assignments in any register maintained by Agent without further consent or
          action by any other Person.

     

        

    
      53

      
        

    

    (v)         Each party hereto
          hereby agrees that (A) in the event an Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered from any Payment Recipient that has received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) for any reason, the Agent (1) shall be subrogated to all the
          rights of such Payment Recipient with respect to such amount and (2) is authorized to set off, net and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Payment Recipient under any Loan Document, or otherwise payable or distributable by the
          Agent to such Payment Recipient from any source, against any amount due to the Agent under this Section 2.11(g) or under the indemnification provisions of this Agreement, (B) the receipt of an
          Erroneous Payment by a Payment Recipient shall not for the purpose of this Agreement be treated as a payment, prepayment, repayment, discharge or other satisfaction of any Obligations owed by any Borrower or any other Credit Party or Guarantor,
          except, in each case, to the extent such Erroneous Payment is, and solely with respect to the amount of such Erroneous Payment that is, comprised of funds received by the Agent from the Borrowers or any other Credit Party or Guarantor for the
          purpose of making a payment on the Obligations and (C) to the extent that an Erroneous Payment was in any way or at any time credited as payment or satisfaction of any of the Obligations, the Obligations or any part thereof that were so credited,
          and all rights of the Payment Recipient, as the case may be, shall be reinstated and continue in full force and effect as if such payment or satisfaction had never been received.

     

        

    (vi)       Each party’s
          obligations under this Section 2.11(g) shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Agent or any transfer of right or obligations by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the
          Allocation commitments or the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Obligations (or any portion thereof) under any Loan Document.

     

        

    (vii)       Nothing in this Section 2.11(g) will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from any Payment Recipient’s receipt of an Erroneous Payment.

     

        

    2.12       Borrower Representative.  Technology hereby (i) is designated and
        appointed by each Borrower as its representative and agent on its behalf (the “Borrower Representative”) and (ii) accepts such appointment as the Borrower Representative,
        in each case, for the purposes of issuing Notices of Borrowings, L/C Requests and Swingline Requests, delivering certificates including Compliance Certificates and Borrowing Base Certificates, giving instructions with respect to the disbursement of
        the proceeds of the Loans, selecting interest rate options, giving and receiving all other notices and consents hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents and taking all other actions (including in respect of compliance with covenants) on
        behalf of any Borrower, the Borrowers, any Credit Party or the Credit Parties under the Loan Documents.  Agent and each Lender may regard any notice or other communication pursuant to any Loan Document from the Borrower Representative as a notice
        or communication from all Credit Parties.  Each warranty, covenant, agreement and undertaking made on behalf of a Credit Party by the Borrower Representative shall be deemed for all purposes to have been made by such Credit Party and shall be
        binding upon and enforceable against such Credit Party to the same extent as if the same had been made directly by such Credit Party.

        Required Lenders:

     

      

    (a)        declare all or any
          portion of any one or more of the commitments of each Lender to make Loans or of the L/C Issuer to Issue Letters of Credit to be suspended or terminated, whereupon all or such portion of such commitments (other than Bank Product Obligations)
          shall forthwith be suspended or terminated;

     

        

    
      79

      
        

    

    (b)        declare all or any
          portion of the unpaid principal amount of all outstanding Loans, all interest accrued and unpaid thereon, and all other amounts owing or payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document (other than Bank Product Obligations) to be immediately
          due and payable; without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by each Credit Party; and/or

     

        

    (c)          exercise on behalf
          of itself and the Lenders all rights and remedies available to it and the Lenders under the Loan Documents or applicable law;

     

        

    provided, however, that upon the occurrence of any event specified in Section 8.1(f) or 8.1(g)
      above (in the case of clause (i) of Section 8.1(g) upon the expiration of the sixty (60) day period mentioned therein), the obligation of each Lender to make
      Loans and the obligation of the L/C Issuer to Issue Letters of Credit shall automatically terminate and the unpaid principal amount of all outstanding Loans and all interest and other amounts as aforesaid shall automatically become due and payable
      without further act of Agent, any Lender or the L/C Issuer.

     

    

    8.3         Rights Not Exclusive.  The rights provided for in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not
        exclusive of any other rights, powers, privileges or remedies provided by law or in equity, or under any other instrument, document or agreement now existing or hereafter arising.

     

      

    8.4         Cash Collateral for Letters of Credit.  If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, this Agreement (or the Revolving
        Loan Allocation) shall be terminated for any reason (including as a result of failure to renew), or if otherwise required by the terms hereof, Agent may, and upon request of Required Lenders, shall, demand (which demand shall be deemed to have been
        delivered automatically upon any acceleration of the Loans and other obligations hereunder pursuant to Section 8.2), and the Borrowers shall thereupon deliver to Agent, to be held for the benefit of the
        L/C Issuer, Agent and the Lenders entitled thereto, an amount of cash equal to one hundred five percent (105%) of the amount of L/C Reimbursement Obligations as additional collateral security
        for Obligations.  Agent may at any time apply any or all of such cash and cash collateral to the payment of any or all of the Credit Parties’ Obligations.  The remaining balance of the cash collateral will be returned to the Borrowers when all
        Letters of Credit have been terminated or discharged, all commitments have been terminated and all Obligations have been paid in full in cash.

        

      

    8.5          Equity Cure Right.

     

      

    (a)        Subject to the
          limitations set forth in clauses (d) and (e) of this Section 8.5, the Borrowers shall have the right to cure
          (the “Cure Right”) an Event of Default arising out of a breach of the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio covenant set forth in Section 7.1
          (the “Specified Financial Covenant”) if they receive the cash proceeds of an investment of Curative Equity on or before the date that is ten (10) Business Days after the
          date that is the earlier to occur of (i) the date on which the Compliance Certificate is delivered to Agent in respect of the Fiscal Quarter with respect to which any such breach occurred (the “Specified Financial Quarter”), and (ii) the date on which the Compliance Certificate is required to be delivered to Agent pursuant to Section 5.2(a) in respect of the
          Specified Financial Quarter (such earlier date, the “Financial Statement Delivery Date”); provided, that Borrowers’ right
          to exercise the Cure Right shall be contingent on their timely delivery of such Compliance Certificate and financial statements for the Specified Financial Quarter as required under Section 5.1.

     

        

    
      80

      
        

    

    (b)        In connection with
          the exercise of the Cure Right under this Section 8.5, on or before the Financial Statement Delivery Date for the Specified Financial Quarter, Borrowers shall deliver to Agent a certification of a
          legally authorized Person which contains, or Borrowers shall include in the Compliance Certificate for the Specified Financial Quarter:  (i) an indication that Borrowers will receive proceeds of Curative Equity for the Specified Financial Quarter
          and a statement setting forth the anticipated amount of such proceeds, (ii) a calculation of the financial results or prospective financial results of Holdings and/or Borrowers and their respective Subsidiaries for the
          Specified Financial Quarter (including for such purposes the proceeds of the Curative Equity (broken out separately) as deemed EBITDA as if received on such date), which shall confirm that on a pro

            forma basis after taking into account the receipt of the Curative Equity proceeds, Borrowers would have been or will be in compliance with the Specified Financial Covenant for the Specified Financial Quarter, (iii) a certification that
          the full amount of the cash proceeds of the equity investment made in connection with such exercise of the Cure Right shall be used to prepay the Obligations in accordance with Section 2.8(a), and
          (iv) a certification that the amount of the cash proceeds of the equity investment does not exceed the amount necessary to cause Borrowers to be in compliance with the Specified Financial Covenant for the Specified Financial Quarter, calculated
          for such purpose as if such amount of Curative Equity were additional EBITDA of Borrowers as at such date (the “Cure Amount”).

     

        

    (c)         The Borrowers shall
          promptly notify Agent of receipt of any proceeds of Curative Equity and shall immediately apply the full such proceeds to the payment of the Obligations in the manner specified in Section 2.8(a).

     

            

    (d)         Any investment of
          Curative Equity shall be in immediately available funds and shall be in an amount equal to the Cure Amount.

          

        

    (e)         Notwithstanding
          anything to the contrary contained herein, regardless of whether an investment of Curative Equity is made prior to the applicable Financial Statement Delivery Date, the Cure Right under this Section 8.5
          may (i) be exercised not more than five (5) times during the term of this Agreement, as the term may be extended by any renewals as provided hereunder, and (ii) not be exercised more than two (2) times in any period of four (4) consecutive Fiscal
          Quarters and not more than once during any two (2) consecutive Fiscal Quarters.

     

        

    (f)          If Borrowers have
          (i) delivered a certification or a Compliance Certificate conforming to the requirements of clause (b) of this Section 8.5, and (ii) received proceeds of
          an investment of Curative Equity in immediately available funds on or before the deadline set forth in this Section 8.5 and in an amount equal to the applicable Cure Amount, any Event of Default that
          occurs or has occurred and is continuing as a result of a breach of the Specified Financial Covenant for the Specified Financial Quarter shall be deemed cured with no further action required by the Required Lenders.  Prior to satisfaction of the
          foregoing requirements of this Section 8.5, any Event of Default that occurs or has occurred as a result of a breach of the Specified Financial Covenant shall be deemed to be continuing and, as a
          result, the Lenders (including the Swingline Lender and the L/C Issuers) shall have no obligation to make additional advances or otherwise extend additional credit hereunder.  In the event Borrowers do not cure all financial covenant violations
          as provided in this Section 8.5, the existing Event(s) of Default shall continue unless waived in writing by the Required Lenders in accordance herewith.

     

        

    (g)        To the extent that
          Curative Equity is received and included in the calculation of the Specified Financial Covenant as deemed EBITDA for any fiscal month pursuant to this Section 8.5, such Curative Equity shall be deemed
          to be EBITDA for purposes of determining compliance with the Specified Financial Covenant for subsequent periods that include such fiscal month.  Curative Equity shall be disregarded for purposes of determining EBITDA for any pricing, financial
          covenant based conditions or any baskets with respect to the covenants contained in this Agreement.  In addition, notwithstanding any prepayment of Obligations pursuant to Section 2.8(a), any
          Indebtedness so prepaid shall be deemed to remain outstanding for purposes of determining pro forma or actual compliance with the Specified Financial Covenant or for determining any
          pricing, financial covenant based conditions or baskets with respect to the covenants contained in this Agreement, in each case in the Specified Financial Quarter or subsequent periods that include such fiscal month.

    ARTICLE IX

    THE AGENT

     

    

    9.1          Appointment and Duties.

     

      

    (a)         Appointment of Agent.  Each of the Lenders and the L/C Issuers hereby irrevocably appoints CDF to act on its behalf as the Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes the Agent to
          take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Article are solely for
          the benefit of the Agent, the Lenders and the L/C Issuers, and the Borrowers shall not have rights as a third-party beneficiary of any of such provisions. It is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” herein or in any other Loan
          Documents (or any other similar term) with reference to the Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead such term is used as a matter of
          market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties.

     

        

    (b)         Rights as a Lender.  The Person serving as the Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the
          Agent, and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may
          accept deposits from, lend money to, own securities of, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for, and generally engage in any kind of business with, the Credit Parties or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if
          such Person were not the Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.

     

        

    (c)          Exculpatory Provisions.

          

        

    (i)          The Agent shall not
          have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, and its duties hereunder shall be administrative in nature. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Agent:

     

        

    (A)          shall not be
          subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing;

     

        

    (B)         shall not have any
          duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that the Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the
          Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents); provided that the Agent shall not be required to take any
          action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable law, including for the avoidance of doubt any action that may be in violation of the automatic
          stay under any Debtor Relief Law or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Non-Funding Lender in violation of any Debtor Relief Law; and

          

        

    (C)        shall not, except as
          expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Credit Parties or any of their Affiliates that is communicated to or
          obtained by the Person serving as the Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.

     

        

    
      82

      
        

    

    (ii)         The Agent shall not
          be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary), or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or
          willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment. The Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default or Event of Default unless and until notice
          describing such Default is given to the Agent in writing by the Borrower Representative, a Lender or an L/C Issuer.

     

        

    (iii)        The Agent shall not
          be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document
          delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default or Event
          of Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article III or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Agent.

     

        

    9.2         Reliance by Agent.  The Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request,
        certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise
        authenticated by the proper Person. The Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining
        compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, or the issuance, extension, increase, reinstatement or renewal of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or an L/C Issuer, the Agent
        may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or L/C Issuer unless the Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or L/C Issuer prior to the making of such Loan or the issuance of such Letter of Credit. The
        Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrowers), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such
        counsel, accountants or experts.

     

      

    9.3         Delegation of Duties.  The Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan
        Document by or through any one or more sub‐agents appointed by the Agent. The Agent and any such sub‐agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Persons. The exculpatory
        provisions of this Article shall apply to any such sub‐agent and to the Related Persons of the Agent and any such sub‐agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the Loans as well as activities as
        Agent. The Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agents except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and nonappealable judgment that the Agent acted with gross negligence or
        willful misconduct in the selection of such sub‐agents.

     

      

    9.4          Resignation of Agent.

     

      

    (a)         The Agent may at any
          time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders, the L/C Issuers and the Borrower Representative. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Borrower, to appoint a
          successor. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the retiring Agent gives notice of its resignation (or such earlier day as shall be agreed
          by the Required Lenders) (the “Resignation Effective Date”), then the retiring Agent may (but shall not be obligated to), on behalf of the Lenders and the L/C Issuers,
          appoint a successor Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above; provided that in no event shall any such successor Agent be a Non-funding Lender. Whether or not a successor has been appointed,
          such resignation shall become effective in accordance with such notice on the Resignation Effective Date.

    (b)        With effect from the
          Resignation Effective Date (i) the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and (ii) except for any indemnity payments owed to the retiring or removed Agent, all payments,
          communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender and L/C Issuer directly, until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Agent as provided for
          above. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent (other than any rights to indemnity payments
          owed to the retiring Agent), and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents.

     

        

    9.5         Non-Reliance on Agent and Other Lenders.  Each Lender and L/C Issuer acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Persons and based
        on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender and L/C Issuer also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Agent or
        any other Lender or any of their Related Persons and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any
        other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

     

      

    9.6          Expenses; Indemnities; Withholding.

     

      

    (a)          Each Lender agrees
          to reimburse Agent and each of its Related Persons (to the extent not reimbursed by any Credit Party) promptly upon demand, severally and ratably, for any costs and expenses (including fees, charges and disbursements of financial, legal and other
          advisors and Other Taxes paid in the name of, or on behalf of, any Credit Party) that may be incurred by Agent or any of its Related Persons in connection with the preparation, syndication, execution, delivery, administration, modification,
          consent, waiver or enforcement of, or the taking of any other action (whether through negotiations, through any work-out, bankruptcy, restructuring or other legal or other proceeding (including, without limitation, preparation for and/or response
          to any subpoena or request for document production relating thereto) or otherwise) in respect of, or legal advice with respect to its rights or responsibilities under, any Loan Document.

     

        

    (b)          Each Lender further
          agrees to indemnify Agent, each L/C Issuer and each of their respective Related Persons (to the extent not reimbursed by any Credit Party), severally and ratably, from and against Liabilities (including, to the extent not indemnified pursuant to
          Section 9.6(c), Taxes, interests and penalties imposed for not properly withholding or backup withholding on payments made to or for the account of any Lender) that may be imposed on, incurred by or
          asserted against Agent, any L/C Issuer or any of  their respective Related Persons in any matter relating to or arising out of, in connection with or as a result of any Loan Document, or any other act, event or transaction related, contemplated
          in or attendant to any such document, or, in each case, any action taken or omitted to be taken by Agent, any L/C Issuer or any of their respective Related Persons under or with respect to any of the foregoing; provided, however, that no Lender
          shall be liable to Agent, any L/C Issuer or any of their respective Related Persons to the extent such liability has resulted primarily from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Person, as determined by a court of competent
          jurisdiction in a final non-appealable judgment or order.

     

        

    
      84

      
        

    

    (c)          To the extent
          required by any Requirement of Law, Agent may withhold from any payment to any Lender under a Loan Document an amount equal to any applicable withholding Tax (including withholding Taxes imposed under Chapters 3 and 4 of Subtitle A of the Code). 
          If the IRS or any other Governmental Authority asserts a claim that Agent did not properly withhold Tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender (because the appropriate certification form was not delivered, was not properly
          executed, or fails to establish an exemption from, or reduction of, withholding Tax with respect to a particular type of payment, or because such Lender failed to notify Agent or any other Person of a change in circumstances which rendered the exemption from, or reduction of, withholding Tax ineffective, failed to maintain a Participant Register or for any other reason), or Agent reasonably determines that it was required to withhold Taxes from a prior payment but
          failed to do so, such Lender shall promptly indemnify Agent fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by Agent as Tax or otherwise, including penalties and interest, and together with all expenses incurred by Agent, including legal
          expenses, allocated internal costs and out-of-pocket expenses.  Agent may offset against any payment to any Lender under a Loan Document, any applicable withholding Tax that was required to be withheld from any prior payment to such Lender but
          which was not so withheld, as well as any other amounts for which Agent is entitled to indemnification from such Lender under this Section 9.6(c).

     

        

    9.7          Release of Collateral or Guarantors.  Each Lender and L/C Issuer hereby consents to the release and hereby directs Agent to
        release (or, in the case of clause (c)(ii) below, release or subordinate) the following:

     

      

    (a)         any Subsidiary of a Borrower from its guaranty of any Obligation, and all Liens on all Property of such Subsidiary in favor of Agent in favor of the Secured Parties, if all of the Stock

          and Stock Equivalents of such Subsidiary owned by any Credit
          Party are sold or transferred in a transaction permitted under the Loan Documents (including pursuant to a waiver or consent); and

     

          

    (b)         any Borrower from
          its Obligations hereunder, and all Liens on all Property of such Borrower in favor of Agent in favor of the Secured Parties, if (i) such Borrower is no longer a Subsidiary pursuant to a transaction or series of transactions permitted hereunder
          and (ii) after giving effect thereto, the remaining Borrowers shall not be in violation of Section 2.8; and

     

        

    (c)          any Lien held by
          Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties against (i) any Collateral that is sold, transferred, conveyed or otherwise disposed of by a Credit Party in a transaction permitted by the Loan Documents (including pursuant to a waiver or consent),
          (ii) any Property subject to a Lien permitted hereunder in reliance upon Section 6.1 and (iii) all of the Collateral and all Credit Parties, upon (A) termination of the Revolving Loan Allocations and
          Floorplan Loan Allocations, (B) payment and satisfaction in full of all Loans, all L/C Reimbursement Obligations (except to the extent cash collateralized in an amount equal to one hundred five percent (105%) of the undrawn and outstanding
          Letters of Credit in a manner reasonably acceptable to the Agent and the L/C Issuer) and all other Obligations under the Loan Documents that Agent has theretofore been notified in writing
          by the holder of such Obligation are then due and payable, (C) deposit of cash collateral with respect to all Open Approvals, in amounts and on terms and conditions and with parties reasonably satisfactory to CDF, and (D) to the extent requested
          by Agent, receipt by Agent and the Secured Parties of liability releases from the Credit Parties each in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Agent.

     

        

    Each Lender and L/C Issuer hereby directs Agent, and Agent hereby agrees to execute and deliver or file such documents and to perform other actions reasonably necessary
      to release the guaranties and Liens as promptly as practicable when and as directed in this Section 9.7.

    (a)        Subject to clause (c) hereafter, (1) no amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement shall be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by Agent, the Required Lenders (or by Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders) and the
          Borrowers, (2) no amendment of the provision of any other Loan Document shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the parties thereto (provided that if the Agent is a party thereto, the Agent shall execute
          such amendment at the direction of the Required Lenders), and (3) no consent or waiver with respect to any departure by any Credit

          Party therefrom, shall be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by Agent, the Required Lenders (or by Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders), and then such waiver shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given; provided, in
            each case, however, that no such waiver, amendment, or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by all the Lenders directly affected thereby (or by Agent with the consent of all the Lenders directly affected thereby), in addition to

          Agent and the Required Lenders (or by Agent with the consent of the

          Required Lenders) and the Borrowers, do any of the following:

     

          

    (i)          increase or extend
          the Allocation of any Lender (or reinstate any Allocation terminated pursuant to Section 8.2(a));

     

        

    (ii)         postpone or delay
          any date fixed for, or reduce or waive, any scheduled installment of principal or any payment of interest, fees or other amounts (other than principal) due to the Lenders (or any of them) or L/C Issuer hereunder or under any other Loan Document

          percentage of the Allocations or of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Loans which shall be required for the Lenders or any of them to take any action hereunder;

     

        

    (vi)        amend this Section 10.1 (other than Section 10.1(c)) or, subject to the terms of this Agreement, the definition of Required Lenders or any provision providing for consent
          or other action by all Lenders;

          under the Revolving Credit Facility;

     

        

    it being agreed that all Lenders shall be deemed to be directly affected by an amendment or waiver of the type described in the preceding clauses (v), (vi), (vii) or (viii).

     

    

    (b)        No amendment, waiver
          or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by Agent, the Swingline Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, in addition to the Required Lenders or all Lenders directly affected
          thereby, as the case may be (or by Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders or all the Lenders directly affected thereby, as the case may be), affect the rights or duties of Agent, the Swingline Lender or the L/C Issuer, as applicable,
          under this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

     

        

    
      86

      
        

    

    (c)          [Reserved].

     

        

    (d)        Notwithstanding anything set forth herein to
        the contrary, a Non-Funding Lender or Impacted Lender shall not have any voting or consent rights under or with respect to any Loan Document or constitute a “Lender” (or be, or have its Loans and Allocations, included in the determination of
        “Required Lenders” or “Lenders directly affected” pursuant to this Section 10.1) for any voting or consent rights under or with respect to any Loan Document, except that a Non-Funding Lender or Impacted
        Lender shall be treated as an “affected Lender” for purposes of Section 10.1(a)(i) and 10.1(a)(iii) solely with respect to an increase in such Non-Funding
        Lender’s or Impacted Lender’s Allocations, a reduction of the principal amount owed to such Non-Funding Lender or Impacted Lender or, unless such Non-Funding Lender or Impacted Lender is treated the same as the other Lenders holding Loans of the
        same type, a reduction in the interest rates applicable to the Loans held by such Non-Funding Lender.  Moreover, for the purposes of determining Required Lenders, the Loans and Allocations held by Non-Funding Lenders and Impacted Lenders shall be
        excluded from the total Loans and Allocations outstanding.

     

      

    (e)         Notwithstanding
          anything set forth herein to the contrary, this Agreement may be amended with the written consent of Agent, the Borrowers and the Required Lenders to (i) add one or more additional credit facilities to this Agreement and to permit the extensions
          of credit from time to time outstanding thereunder and the outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees in respect thereof to share ratably in the benefits of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with the Floorplan Loans and
          Revolving Loans and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof and (ii) include appropriately the Lenders holding such credit facilities in any determination of the Required Lenders.

     

        

    (f)          Notwithstanding
          anything to the contrary contained in this Section 10.1, (i) the Borrowers may amend Schedules 4.9 and 4.20
          with respect to Section 4.21 upon notice to Agent, (ii) Agent may amend Schedule 2.1(a) and Schedule 2.1(b)
          to reflect Sales entered into pursuant to Section 10.9, and (iii) Agent and the Borrowers may amend or modify this Agreement and any other Loan Document to (1) cure any ambiguity, omission, defect or
          inconsistency therein, and (2) grant a new Lien for the benefit of the Secured Parties, extend an existing Lien over additional Property for the benefit of the Secured Parties or join additional Persons as Credit Parties.

     

        

    (g)        Anything in this Section 10.1 to the contrary notwithstanding, (i) any amendment, modification, elimination, waiver, consent, termination, or release of, or with respect to, any
          provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document that relates only to the relationship of the Lenders among themselves, and that does not affect the rights or obligations of any Credit Party or Guarantor, shall not require consent by or the
          agreement of any Credit Party or Guarantor, (ii) any amendment, waiver, modification, elimination, or consent of or with respect to any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document may be entered into without the consent of, or over the
          objection of, any Non-Funding Lender, and (iii) any amendment contemplated by Section 2.3(f)(iii) of this Agreement titled “Benchmark Replacement Setting” in connection with replacing the LIBOR Rate
          or other USD LIBOR, a Benchmark Transition Event, a Term SOFR Transition Event, or an Early Opt-in Election shall be effective as contemplated by Section 2.3(f)(iii) of this Agreement titled
          “Benchmark Replacement Setting.”

     

        

    (h)         Notwithstanding the
          foregoing, Agent, with the consent of the Borrowers, may amend, modify or supplement any Loan Document without the consent of any Lender or the Required Lenders in order to correct, amend or cure any inconsistency or defect or correct any
          typographical error or other manifest error in any Loan Document, and such amendment, modification or supplement shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to any Loan Document if the same is not objected to
          in writing by the Required Lenders within five Business Days following receipt of notice thereof.  Furthermore, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, with the consent of Agent at the request of the Borrowers (without the need to obtain
          any consent of any Lender), any Loan Document may be amended to add terms that are favorable to the Lenders (as reasonably determined by Agent).

            10.2, (ii) posted to Syndtrak® (to the extent such system is available and set up by or at the direction of Agent prior to posting) in an appropriate location by uploading such notice, demand, request, direction or other

        Agent or (iv) addressed to such other address as shall be notified in writing (A) in the case of the Borrowers, Agent and the Swingline Lender, to the other parties hereto and (B) in the case of all other parties, to the Borrower Representative and
        Agent.  Transmissions made by electronic mail or E-Fax to Agent shall be effective only (x) for notices where such transmission is specifically authorized by this Agreement, (y) if such transmission is delivered in compliance with procedures of
        Agent applicable at the time and previously communicated to the Borrower Representative, and (z) if receipt of such transmission is acknowledged by Agent.

     

      

    (b)         Effectiveness.

     

        

    (i)         All communications
          described in clause (a) above and all other notices, demands, requests and other communications made in connection with this Agreement shall be effective and be deemed to have been received (A) if

          to such posting is given to the recipient thereof in accordance with the standard procedures applicable to such E-System; provided, however, that no communications to Agent pursuant to Article II
          shall be effective until received by Agent.

     

        

    (ii)         The posting,
          completion and/or submission by any Credit Party of any communication pursuant to an E‐System shall constitute a representation and warranty by the Credit Parties that any representation, warranty, certification or other similar statement
          required by the Loan Documents to be provided, given or made by a Credit Party in connection with any such communication is true, correct and complete except as expressly noted in such communication or E-System.

     

        

    (c)        Each Lender shall
          notify Agent in writing of any changes in the address to which notices to such Lender should be directed, of addresses of its Lending Office, of payment instructions in respect of all payments to be made to it hereunder and of such other
          administrative information as Agent shall reasonably request.

          

        

    10.3       Electronic Transmissions.

          

        

    (a)         Authorization.  Subject to the provisions of Section 10.2(a), each of Agent, Lenders, each Credit Party and each of their Related Persons, is authorized (but
          not required) to transmit, post or otherwise make or communicate, in its sole and absolute discretion, Electronic Transmissions in connection with any Loan Document and the transactions contemplated therein.  Each Credit Party and each Secured
          Party hereto acknowledges and agrees that the use of Electronic Transmissions 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 the transmission of Electronic Transmissions.

     

        

    
      88

      
        

    

    (b)         Signatures.  Subject to the provisions of Section 10.2(a), (i) (A) no posting to any E-System shall be denied legal effect merely because it is made
          electronically, (B) each E‐Signature on any such posting shall be deemed sufficient to satisfy any requirement for a “signature” and (C) each such posting shall be deemed sufficient to satisfy any requirement for a
          “writing”, in each case including pursuant to any Loan Document, any applicable provision of any UCC, the federal Uniform Electronic Transactions Act, the Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act and any substantive or procedural
          Requirement of Law governing such subject matter, (ii) each such posting that is 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 posting, an E-Signature, upon which Agent, each Secured Party and each Credit Party may rely and assume the authenticity thereof, (iii) each such posting 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 and (iv) each party hereto or beneficiary hereto agrees not to contest the validity or enforceability of any posting on any E-System or
          E-Signature on any such posting under the provisions of any applicable Requirement of Law requiring certain documents to be in writing or signed; provided, however, that nothing herein shall limit such party’s or beneficiary’s right to contest
          whether any posting to any E-System or E-Signature has been altered after transmission. For the avoidance of doubt, Agent will not accept E-Signatures for execution of any of the Loan Documents.

     

        

    (c)         Separate Agreements.  All uses of an E-System shall be governed by and subject to, in addition to Section 10.2 and this Section

              10.3, the separate terms, conditions and privacy policy posted or referenced in such E-System (or such terms, conditions and privacy policy as may be updated from time to time, including on such E‐System) and related Contractual
          Obligations executed by Agent and Credit Parties in connection with the use of such E-System.

     

        

    (d)         LIMITATION OF LIABILITY.  ALL E-SYSTEMS AND ELECTRONIC TRANSMISSIONS SHALL BE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE”.  NONE OF AGENT, ANY LENDER OR ANY OF THEIR RELATED PERSONS WARRANTS THE ACCURACY, ADEQUACY
          OR COMPLETENESS OF ANY E-SYSTEMS OR ELECTRONIC TRANSMISSION AND DISCLAIMS ALL LIABILITY FOR ERRORS OR OMISSIONS THEREIN.  NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND IS MADE BY AGENT, ANY LENDER OR ANY OF THEIR RELATED PERSONS IN CONNECTION WITH ANY E‐SYSTEMS OR
          ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATION, 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 of the Borrowers, each other Credit Party executing
          this Agreement and each Secured Party agrees that Agent has no responsibility for maintaining or providing any equipment, software, services or any testing required in connection with any Electronic Transmission or otherwise required for any
          E-System.

     

        

    10.4       No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies.  No failure to exercise and no delay in exercising, on the part of Agent or any Lender, any
        right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder, shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other
        right, remedy, power or privilege.  No course of dealing between any Credit Party, any Affiliate of any Credit Party, Agent or any Lender shall be effective to amend, modify or discharge any provision of this Agreement or any of the other Loan
        Documents.

     

      

    
      89

      
        

    

    10.5       Costs and Expenses.  Any action taken by any Credit Party under or with respect to any Loan Document, even if required under any Loan Document or at the
          request of Agent or Required Lenders, shall be at the expense of such Credit Party, and neither Agent nor any other Secured Party shall be required under any Loan Document to reimburse any Credit Party except as expressly provided therein.  In
          addition, the Borrowers agree to pay or reimburse upon demand (a) Agent for all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by it or any of its Related Persons, in connection with the investigation, development, preparation, negotiation,
          syndication, execution, interpretation or administration of, any modification of any term of or termination of, any Loan Document, any commitment or proposal letter therefor, any other document prepared in connection therewith or the consummation
          and administration of any transaction contemplated therein, in each case including Attorney Costs of Agent, the cost of environmental audits, insurance reviews, Collateral audits, inspections,
          field examinations, and appraisals, background checks and similar expenses, (b) Agent for all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by it or any of its Related Persons in connection with internal audit reviews, field
          examinations and Collateral examinations (which shall be reimbursed, in addition to the out-of-pocket costs and expenses of such examiners, at the per diem rate per individual charged by Agent for its examiners) (c) each of Agent, its Related
          Persons, and L/C Issuer for all costs and expenses incurred in connection with (i) any refinancing or restructuring of the credit arrangements provided hereunder, (ii) the enforcement or preservation of any right or remedy under any Loan
          Document, any Obligation, with respect to the Collateral or any other related right or remedy or (iii) the commencement, defense, conduct of, intervention in, or the taking of any other action (including, without limitation, preparation for
          and/or response to any subpoena or request for document production relating thereto) with respect to, any proceeding (including any bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding) related to any Credit Party, Loan Document, or Obligation, including Attorney
          Costs and (d) fees and disbursements of Attorney Costs of one law firm on behalf of all Lenders (other than Agent) incurred in connection with any of the matters referred to in clause (c) above.

     

        

    10.6       Indemnity.

     

      

    (a)          Each Credit Party
          agrees to indemnify, hold harmless and defend Agent, each Lender, each L/C Issuer and each of their respective Related Persons (each such Person being an “Indemnitee”)
          from and against all Liabilities (including brokerage commissions, fees and other compensation) that may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against any such Indemnitee in any matter relating to or arising out of, in connection with or as a
          result of (i) any Loan Document, any Obligation (or the repayment thereof), any Letter of Credit, the use or intended use of the proceeds of any Loan or the use of any Letter of Credit or any securities filing of, or with respect to, any Credit
          Party, (ii) any commitment letter, proposal letter or term sheet with any Person or any Contractual Obligation, arrangement or understanding with any broker, finder or consultant, in each case entered into by or on behalf of any Credit Party or
          any Affiliate of any of them in connection with any of the foregoing and any Contractual Obligation entered into in connection with any E-Systems or other Electronic Transmissions, (iii) any actual or prospective investigation, litigation or
          other proceeding, whether or not brought by any such Indemnitee or any of its Related Persons, any holders of securities or creditors (and including attorneys’ fees in any case), whether or not any such Indemnitee, Related Person, holder or
          creditor is a party thereto, and whether or not based on any securities or commercial law or regulation or any other Requirement of Law or theory thereof, including common law, equity, contract, tort or otherwise, (iv) any Loan or Letter of
          Credit or the use or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by any L/C Issuer to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the
          terms of such Letter of Credit), or (v) any other act, event or transaction related, contemplated in or attendant to any of the foregoing (collectively, the “Indemnified
            Matters”); provided, however, that no Credit Party shall have any liability under this Section 10.6 to any Indemnitee with respect to any Indemnified Matter, and no Indemnitee shall have any
          liability with respect to any Indemnified Matter other than (to the extent otherwise liable), to the extent such liability has resulted primarily from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee, as determined by a court of
          competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable judgment or order.  Furthermore, each of the Borrowers and each other Credit Party executing this Agreement waives and agrees not to assert against any Indemnitee, and shall cause each other Credit
          Party to waive and not assert against any Indemnitee, any right of contribution with respect to any Liabilities that may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against any Related Person.  This Section 10.6(a)
          shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent Liabilities arising from any non-Tax claim.

     

        

    
      90

      
        

    

    (b)         Without limiting the
          foregoing, “Indemnified Matters” includes all Environmental Liabilities, including those arising from, or otherwise involving, any Property of any Credit Party or any Related Person of any Credit Party or any actual, alleged or prospective damage
          to Property or natural resources or harm or injury alleged to have resulted from any Release of Hazardous Materials on, upon or into such Property or natural resource or any Property on or contiguous to any Real Estate of any Credit Party or any
          Related Person of any Credit Party, whether or not, with respect to any such Environmental Liabilities, any Indemnitee is a mortgagee pursuant to any leasehold mortgage, a mortgagee in possession, the successor-in-interest
          to any Credit Party or any Related Person of any Credit Party or the owner, lessee or operator of any Property of any Related Person through any foreclosure action, in each case except to the extent such Environmental Liabilities (i) are incurred
          solely following foreclosure by Agent or following Agent or any Lender having become the successor-in-interest to any Credit Party or any Related Person of any Credit Party and (ii) are attributable solely to acts of such Indemnitee.

     

        

    10.7      Marshaling; Payments Set Aside.  No Secured Party shall be required to marshal any present or future collateral security
        (including but not limited to the Collateral) for, or other assurances of payment of, the Secured Obligations or any of them or to resort to such collateral security or other assurances of payment in any particular order, and all of its rights and
        remedies hereunder and in respect of such collateral security and other assurances of payment shall be cumulative and in addition to all other rights and remedies, however existing or arising. To the extent that it lawfully may, each Credit Party
        hereby agrees that it will not invoke any law relating to the marshaling of collateral which might cause delay in or impede the enforcement of any Secured Party’s rights and remedies under this Agreement or under any other instrument creating or
        evidencing any of the Secured Obligations or under which any of the Secured Obligations is outstanding or by which any of the Secured Obligations is secured or payment thereof is otherwise assured, and, to the extent that it lawfully may, each
        Credit Party hereby irrevocably waives the benefits of all such laws.  To the extent that any Secured Party receives a payment from a Borrower, from any other Credit Party or Guarantor, from the proceeds of the
        Collateral, from the exercise of its rights of setoff, any enforcement action or otherwise, and such payment is subsequently, in whole or in part, invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to a
        trustee, receiver or any other party, then to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied, and all Liens, rights and remedies therefor, shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as
        if such payment had not occurred.

     

      

    10.8       Successors and Assigns.  The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto
        and their respective successors and assigns; provided that any assignment by any Lender shall be subject to the provisions of Section 10.9, and provided further that the Borrowers or other Credit Party
        may not assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Document without the prior written consent of Agent and each Lender.

     

      

    10.9       Assignments and Participations; Binding Effect.

     

      

    (a)         Binding Effect.  This Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Borrowers, the other Credit Parties signatory hereto and Agent and each Lender party hereto.  Thereafter, it
          shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of, but only to the benefit of, the Borrowers, the other Credit Parties hereto (in each case except for Article IX), Agent, each Lender and each L/C
          Issuer receiving the benefits of the Loan Documents and each other Secured Party and, in each case, their respective successors and permitted assigns.  Except as expressly provided in any Loan Document (including in Section 9.4), none of the Borrowers, any other Credit Party, any L/C Issuer or Agent shall have the right to assign any rights or obligations hereunder or any interest herein.

          

        

    (b)         Right to Assign.  Each Lender may sell, transfer, negotiate or assign (a “Sale”) all or a portion of its rights and obligations
          hereunder (including all or a portion of its Allocations and its rights and obligations with respect to Loans and Letters of Credit) to any Eligible Assignee; provided, however, that:

     

        

    
      91

      
        

    

    (i)          such Sales shall
          be ratable between the Revolving Loan and Floorplan Loan;

     

        

    (ii)        for each Loan, the aggregate outstanding principal amount (determined as of the effective date of the applicable Assignment) of the Loans, Allocations, and Letter of Credit Obligations subject to any such Sale shall be in a
          minimum amount of Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000.00), unless such Sale is made to an existing Lender or an Affiliate or Approved Fund of any existing Lender, is of the assignor’s (together with its Affiliates and
          Approved Funds) entire interest in such facility, or is made with the prior consent of Agent;

     

        

    (iii)        such Sales
          shall be effective only upon the acknowledgement in writing of such Sale by Agent;

     

        

    (iv)        interest accrued
          prior to and through the date of any such Sale may not be assigned; and

     

        

    (v)         such Sales by
          Lenders who are Non-Funding Lenders due to clause (a) of the definition of Non-Funding Lender shall be subject to Agent’s prior written consent in all instances, unless in connection with such Sale,
          such Non-Funding Lender cures, or causes the cure of, its Non-Funding Lender status as contemplated in Section 2.11(e)(v);

     

        

    Agent’s refusal to accept a Sale

      to a Credit Party, an Affiliate of a Credit Party, a holder of Subordinated Indebtedness or an Affiliate of such a holder, or to

      any Person that would be a Non-Funding Lender or Impacted Lender, or the imposition of conditions or limitations (including limitations on voting) upon Sales to such Persons, shall not be deemed to be unreasonable.

     

    

    (c)        Required Consents.  The consent of the Borrower Representative shall be required in the case of any assignment (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) unless (x) an Event of Default has
          occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment or (y) such assignment is to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund.

     

        

    (d)         Procedure.  The parties to each Sale made in reliance on clause (b) above (and excluding those described in clause (f),
          (g) or (h) below) shall execute and deliver to Agent an Assignment via an electronic settlement system designated by Agent (or, if previously agreed with
          Agent, via a manual execution and delivery of the Assignment) evidencing such Sale, any Tax forms required to be delivered pursuant to Section 11.2 and payment of an assignment fee in the amount of
          Three Thousand Five Hundred Dollars ($3,500.00) to Agent, unless waived or reduced by Agent; provided, that (i) if a Sale by a Lender is made to an Affiliate or an Approved Fund of such assigning Lender, then no assignment fee shall be due in
          connection with such Sale, and (ii) if a Sale by a Lender is made to an assignee that is not an Affiliate or Approved Fund of such assignor Lender, and concurrently to one or more Affiliates or Approved Funds of such assignee, then only one
          assignment fee of Three Thousand Five Hundred Dollars ($3,500.00) shall be due in connection with such Sale (unless waived or reduced by Agent).  Upon receipt of all the foregoing, and conditioned upon such receipt and, if such Assignment is made
          in accordance with clause (iii) of Section 10.9(b), upon Agent (and the Borrower, if applicable) consenting to such Assignment, from and after the
          effective date specified in such Assignment, Agent shall record or cause to be recorded in the Register the information contained in such Assignment.

     

        

    (e)         Effectiveness.  Subject to the recording of an Assignment by Agent in the Register pursuant to Section 2.4(b), (i) the assignee thereunder shall become a party
          hereto and, to the extent that rights and obligations under the Loan Documents have been assigned to such assignee pursuant to such Assignment, shall have the rights and obligations of a Lender, and (ii) the assignor thereunder shall, to the
          extent that rights and obligations under this Agreement have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment, relinquish its rights (except for those surviving the termination of the Allocations and the payment in full of the Obligations) and be
          released from its obligations under the Loan Documents, other than those relating to events or circumstances occurring prior to such assignment (and, in the case of an Assignment covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Lender’s
          rights and obligations under the Loan Documents, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto).

     

        

    
      92

      
        

    

    (f)         Grant of Security Interests.  In addition to the other rights provided in this Section 10.9, each Lender may grant a security interest in, or otherwise assign
          as collateral, any of its rights under this Agreement, whether now owned or hereafter acquired (including rights to payments of principal or interest on the Loans), to (A) any federal reserve bank (pursuant to Regulation A
          of the Federal Reserve Board), without notice to Agent or (B) any holder of, or trustee for the benefit of the holders of, such Lender’s Indebtedness or equity securities, by notice to Agent; provided, however, that no such holder or trustee,
          whether because of such grant or assignment or any foreclosure thereon (unless such foreclosure is made through an assignment in accordance with clause (b) above), shall be entitled to any rights of
          such Lender hereunder and no such Lender shall be relieved of any of its obligations hereunder.

     

        

    (g)        Participants and Grant of Option to Fund to SPVs.  In addition to the other rights provided in this Section 10.9, each Lender may, (x) with notice to Agent,
          grant to an SPV the option to make all or any part of any Loan that such Lender would otherwise be required to make hereunder (and the exercise of such option by such SPV and the making of Loans pursuant thereto shall satisfy the obligation of
          such Lender to make such Loans hereunder) and such SPV may assign to such Lender the right to receive payment with respect to any Obligation and (y) without notice to or consent from Agent or the Borrower, sell participations to one or more
          Persons in or to all or a portion of its rights and obligations under the Loan Documents (including all its rights and obligations with respect to the Floorplan Loans, Revolving Loans and Letters of Credit); provided, however, that, whether as a
          result of any term of any Loan Document or of such grant or participation, (i) no such SPV or participant shall have a commitment, or be deemed to have made an offer to commit, to make Loans hereunder, and, except as provided in the applicable
          option agreement, none shall be liable for any obligation of such Lender hereunder, (ii) such Lender’s rights and obligations, and the rights and obligations of the Credit Parties and the Secured Parties towards such Lender, under any Loan
          Document shall remain unchanged and each other party hereto shall continue to deal solely with such Lender, which shall remain the holder of the Obligations in the Register, except that (A) each such participant and SPV shall be entitled to the
          benefit of Article XI, but, with respect to Section 11.2, only to the extent such participant or SPV delivers the Tax forms such Lender is required to
          collect pursuant to Section 11.2(g) and then only to the extent of any amount to which such Lender would be entitled in the absence of any such grant or participation except to the extent such
          entitlement to receive a greater amount results from any change in, or in the interpretation of, any Requirement of Law that occurs after the date such grant or participation is made and (B) each such SPV may receive other payments that would
          otherwise be made to such Lender with respect to Loans funded by such SPV to the extent provided in the applicable option agreement and set forth in a notice provided to Agent by such SPV and such Lender, provided, however, that in no case
          (including pursuant to clause (A) or (B) above) shall an SPV granted an option pursuant to this clause (g)
          or participant have the right to enforce any of the terms of any Loan Document, and (iii) the consent of such SPV or participant shall not be required (either directly, as a restraint on such Lender’s ability to consent hereunder or otherwise)
          for any amendments, waivers or consents with respect to any Loan Document or to exercise or refrain from exercising any powers or rights such Lender may have under or in respect of the Loan Documents (including the right to enforce or direct
          enforcement of the Obligations), except for those described in clauses (ii) and (iii) of Section 10.1(a)
          with respect to amounts, or dates fixed for payment of amounts, to which such participant or SPV would otherwise be entitled and, in the case of participants, except for those described in clause (vi)
          of Section 10.1(a).

     

        

    
      93

      
        

    

    (h)         Assignments to Affiliate SPVs.  In addition to the other rights provided elsewhere in this Section 10.9, each Lender that is an Affiliate of the Agent may,
          with notice to Agent in such form as shall be acceptable to the Agent (but without the consent of any Person and without compliance with any limitation or procedure specified in subsection 10.9(b) or
          10.9(c)), sell, transfer, negotiate or assign all or any portion of its rights, title or interests hereunder with respect to any Revolving Loans (including any interest accrued or to accrue thereon) to
          an SPV that is an Affiliate of such Lender, and such SPV may thereafter, with notice to Agent, assign such Loan to any other SPV that is an Affiliate of such Lender or re-assign all or a portion of its interests in any Revolving Loans to the
          Lender holding the related Loan Allocation; provided, however, that, whether as a result of any term of any Loan Document or of such Sale, no such SPV
          shall have a commitment, or be deemed to have made an offer to commit, to make Revolving Loans hereunder, and none shall be liable for any obligation of such Lender hereunder.  In the case of any Sale pursuant to this clause (h), any assignee SPV shall have all the rights of a Lender hereunder, including the rights described in Section 9.3 and the right to receive all
          payments with respect to the assigned Obligations.  Each such SPV shall be entitled to the benefit of Section 11.2 only to the extent such SPV delivers the tax forms the assigning Lender is required
          to collect pursuant to subsection 11.2(f).

     

        

    (i)        No party hereto shall institute (and the Borrowers shall cause each other Credit Party not to institute) against any SPV that funds or purchases any Obligation pursuant to clauses

              (g) or (h) any bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, liquidation or similar proceeding, prior to the date that is
            one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding commercial paper of such SPV; provided, however, that each Lender having designated an SPV as such agrees to indemnify each Indemnitee against any Liability that may be incurred
            by, or asserted against, such Indemnitee as a result of failing to institute such proceeding (including a failure to be reimbursed by such SPV for any such Liability).  The agreement in the preceding sentence shall survive the termination of
            the Allocations and the payment in full of the Obligations.  In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 10.9, any SPV may
            disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its Loans to any rating agency rating the obligations of such SPV.  For the avoidance of doubt, an SPV that is a trust formed by or at the direction of a Lender or an
            Affiliate of a Lender, as depositor, shall be deemed to be an Affiliate of such Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it
            enters the name and address of each participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any participant or
            any information relating to a participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person other than Agent except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to
            establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations.  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.  For the avoidance of doubt,
            Agent shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

            

          

    10.10      Non-Public Information; Confidentiality.

     

      

    (a)        Non-Public Information.  Each of Agent, each Lender and L/C Issuer acknowledges and agrees that it may receive material non-public information (“MNPI”) hereunder concerning the Credit Parties and their Affiliates and agrees to use such information in compliance with all relevant policies, procedures and applicable Requirements of Laws (including United States federal and
          state security laws and regulations).

     

        

    
      94

      
        

    

    (b)        Confidential Information.  Each Lender, each L/C Issuer and Agent agree to use all reasonable efforts to maintain, in accordance with its customary practices, the confidentiality of information obtained by
          it pursuant to any Loan Document and designated in writing by any Credit Party as confidential, except that such information may be disclosed (i) with the Borrowers’ consent, (ii) to Related Persons of such Lender, L/C Issuer or Agent, as the
          case may be, or to any Person that any L/C Issuer causes to Issue Letters of Credit hereunder, that are advised of the confidential nature of such information and are instructed to keep such information confidential in accordance with the terms
          hereof, (iii) to the extent such information presently is or hereafter becomes (A) publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 10.10 or (B) available to such Lender, L/C
          Issuer or Agent or any of their Related Persons, as the case may be, from a source (other than any Credit Party) not known by them to be subject to disclosure restrictions, (iv) to the extent disclosure is required by applicable Requirements of
          Law or other legal process or requested or demanded by any Governmental Authority, (v) to the extent necessary or customary for inclusion in league table measurements, (vi) (A) to the National Association of Insurance
          Commissioners or any similar organization, any examiner or any nationally recognized rating agency or (B) otherwise to the extent consisting of general portfolio information that does not identify Credit Parties, (vii) to current or prospective
          assignees, SPVs (including the investors or prospective investors therein) or participants, direct or contractual counterparties to any Secured Rate Contracts and to their respective Related Persons, in each case to the extent such assignees,
          investors, participants, counterparties or Related Persons agree to be bound by provisions substantially similar to the provisions of this Section 10.10 (and such Person may disclose information to
          their respective Related Persons in accordance with clause (ii) above), (viii) to any other party hereto, and (ix) in connection with the exercise or enforcement of any right or remedy under any Loan
          Document, in connection with any litigation or other proceeding to which such Lender, L/C Issuer or Agent or any of their Related Persons is a party or bound, or to the extent necessary to respond to public statements or disclosures by Credit
          Parties or their Related Persons referring to a Lender, L/C Issuer or Agent or any of their Related Persons.  In the event of any conflict between the terms of this Section 10.10 and those of any
          other Contractual Obligation entered into with any Credit Party (whether or not a Loan Document), the terms of this Section 10.10 shall govern.

     

        

    (c)        Tombstones; League Tables.  Each Credit Party consents to the publication by Agent or any Lender of any press releases, tombstones, advertising or other promotional materials (including, without
          limitation, via any Electronic Transmission) relating to the financing transactions contemplated by this Agreement using such Credit Party’s name, product photographs, logo or trademark.  Agent or such Lender shall provide a draft of any such
          press release, advertising or other material to the Borrower Representative for review and comment prior to the publication thereof; provided further publication of such information shall
          not require additional review.  Each Lender hereby consents to the disclosure by Agent and Lead Arranger of information necessary or customary for inclusion in league table measurements.

     

        

    (d)         Press Release and Related Matters.  No Credit Party shall, and no Credit Party shall permit any of its Affiliates to, issue any press release or other public disclosure (other than any document filed with
          any Governmental Authority relating to a public offering of securities of any Credit Party) using the name, logo or otherwise referring to CDF or of any of its Affiliates, the Loan Documents or any transaction contemplated herein or therein to
          which CDF or any of its affiliates is party without the prior written consent of CDF or such Affiliate except to the extent required to do so under applicable Requirements of Law and then, only after consulting with CDF.

     

        

    (e)         Distribution of Materials to Lenders and L/C Issuers.  The Credit Parties acknowledge and agree that the Loan Documents and all reports, notices, communications and other information or materials provided
          or delivered by, or on behalf of, the Credit Parties hereunder (collectively, the “Borrower Materials”) may be disseminated by, or on behalf of, Agent, and made
          available, to the Lenders and the L/C Issuers by posting such Borrower Materials on an E-System. The Credit Parties authorize Agent to download copies of their logos from its website and post copies thereof on an E-System.

     

        

    
      95

      
        

    

    (f)        Material Non-Public Information.  The Credit Parties hereby agree that if either they, any parent company or any Subsidiary of the Credit Parties has publicly traded equity or debt securities in the U.S.,
          they shall (and shall cause such parent company or Subsidiary, as the case may be, to) (i) identify in writing, and (ii) to the extent reasonably practicable, clearly and conspicuously mark such Borrower Materials that contain only information
          that is publicly available or that is not material for purposes of U.S. federal and state securities laws as “PUBLIC”. The Credit Parties agree that by identifying such
          Borrower Materials as “PUBLIC” or publicly filing such Borrower Materials with the Securities and Exchange Commission, then Agent, the Lenders and the L/C Issuers shall
          be entitled to treat such Borrower Materials as not containing any MNPI for purposes of U.S. federal and state securities laws. The Credit Parties further represent, warrant, acknowledge and agree that the following documents and materials shall
          be deemed to be PUBLIC, whether or not so marked, and do not contain any MNPI: (A) the Loan Documents, including the schedules and exhibits attached thereto, and (B) administrative materials of a customary nature prepared
          by the Credit Parties or Agent (including, Notices of Borrowing, L/C Requests, Swingline Requests and any similar requests or notices posted on or through an E-System). Before distribution of any Borrower Materials, the Credit Parties agree to
          execute and deliver to Agent a letter authorizing distribution of the evaluation materials to prospective Lenders and their employees willing to receive MNPI, and a separate letter authorizing distribution of evaluation materials that do not
          contain MNPI and represent that no MNPI is contained therein.

     

        

    10.11      Set-off; Sharing of Payments.

     

      

    (a)         Right of Setoff.  Each of Agent, each Lender, each L/C Issuer and each Affiliate (including each branch office thereof) of any of them is hereby authorized, without notice or demand (each of which is
          hereby waived by each Credit Party), at any time and from time to time during the continuance of any Event of Default and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Requirements of Law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (whether
          general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) (other than any such deposits now or hereafter held in accounts meeting clause (a) or clause (b)
          of the definition of Excluded Account) at any time held and other Indebtedness, claims or other obligations at any time owing by Agent, such Lender, such L/C Issuer or any of their respective Affiliates to or for the credit or the account of the
          Borrowers or any other Credit Party against any Obligation of any Credit Party now or hereafter existing, whether or not any demand was made under any Loan Document with respect to such Obligation and even though such Obligation may be
          unmatured.  No Lender or L/C Issuer shall exercise any such right of setoff without the prior consent of Agent or Required Lenders. Each of Agent, each Lender and each L/C Issuer agrees promptly to notify the Borrower Representative and Agent
          after any such setoff and application made by such Lender or its Affiliates; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.  The rights under this Section 10.11 are in addition to any other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that Agent, the Lenders, the L/C Issuer, their Affiliates and the other Secured Parties, may have, it being understood and
          agreed that Agent, the Lenders, the L/C Issuer, their Affiliates and the other Secured Parties will not exercise any right of set off which they may now or hereafter have in equity, at law or in contract against any deposits now or hereafter held
          in accounts meeting clause (a) or clause (b) of the definition of Excluded Account.

     

        

    (b)        Sharing of Payments, Etc.  If any Lender, directly or through an Affiliate or branch office thereof, obtains any payment of any Obligation of any Credit Party (whether voluntary, involuntary or through the
          exercise of any right of setoff or the receipt of any Collateral or “proceeds” (as defined under the applicable UCC) of Collateral) other than pursuant to Article VIII and such payment exceeds the
          amount such Lender would have been entitled to receive if all payments had gone to, and been distributed by, Agent in accordance with the provisions of the Loan Documents, such Lender shall purchase for cash from other Lenders such participations
          in their Obligations as necessary for such Lender to share such excess payment with such Lenders to ensure such payment is applied as though it had been received by Agent and applied in accordance with this Agreement (or, if such application
          would then be at the discretion of the Borrowers, applied to repay the Obligations in accordance herewith); provided, however, that (i) if such payment is rescinded or otherwise recovered from such Lender or L/C Issuer in whole or in part, such
          purchase shall be rescinded and the purchase price therefor shall be returned to such Lender or L/C Issuer without interest and (ii) such Lender shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Requirements of Law, be able to exercise all its
          rights of payment (including the right of setoff) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of the applicable Credit Party in the amount of such participation.  If a Non-Funding Lender receives any
          such payment as described in the previous sentence, such Lender shall turn over such payments to Agent in an amount that would satisfy the cash collateral requirements set forth in Section 2.11(e).

    10.12     Counterparts; Facsimile Signature.  This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties in separate counterparts, each of
          which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement.  Signature pages may be detached from multiple separate counterparts and attached to a single counterpart.  Delivery of an executed signature page of this Agreement by facsimile transmission or Electronic Transmission shall be as effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart hereof.

     

        

    10.13     Severability.  The illegality or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement or any instrument or agreement required
        hereunder shall not in any way affect or impair the legality or enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement or any instrument or agreement required hereunder.

     

      

    10.14     Captions.  The captions and headings of this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall not affect the interpretation of this
        Agreement.

     

      

    10.15     Independence of Provisions.  The parties hereto acknowledge that this Agreement and the other Loan Documents may use several
        different limitations, tests or measurements to regulate the same or similar matters, and that such limitations, tests and measurements are cumulative and must each be performed, except as expressly stated to the contrary in this Agreement.

     

      

    10.16     Interpretation.  This Agreement is the result of negotiations among and has been reviewed by counsel to Credit Parties, Agent,
        each Lender and other parties hereto, and is the product of all parties hereto.  Accordingly, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not be construed against the Lenders or Agent merely because of Agent’s or Lenders’ involvement in the
        preparation of such documents and agreements.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each of the parties hereto has had the advice of counsel with respect to Sections 10.18 and 10.19.

     

      

    10.17     No Third Parties Benefited.  This Agreement is made and entered into for the sole protection and legal benefit of the Borrower,
        the Lenders, the L/C Issuers party hereto, Agent and each other Secured Party, and their permitted successors and assigns, and no other Person shall be a direct or indirect legal beneficiary of, or have any direct or indirect cause of action or
        claim in connection with, this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents.  Neither Agent nor any Lender shall have any obligation to any Person not a party to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents.

     

      

    10.18     Governing Law and Jurisdiction.

     

      

    (a)       Governing Law.  The laws of the State of New York shall govern all matters arising out of, in connection with or relating to this Agreement, including, without limitation, its validity, interpretation,

    (b)       Submission to Jurisdiction.  Any legal action or proceeding with respect to any Loan Document shall be brought exclusively in the courts of the State of New York located in the City of New York, Borough of Manhattan, or of the United States of America for the Southern District of New York  and, by execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Borrowers and each other Credit Party executing this Agreement hereby accepts for itself and in respect of its Property, generally and unconditionally, the jurisdiction of
          the aforesaid courts.  The parties hereto (and, to the extent set forth in any other Loan Document, each other Credit Party) hereby irrevocably waive any objection, including any objection to the laying of venue or based on the grounds of forum
          non conveniens, that any of them may now or hereafter have to the bringing of any such action or proceeding in such jurisdictions.

     

        

    
      97

      
        

    

    (c)       Service of Process.  Each Credit Party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of any and all legal process, summons, notices and other documents and other service of process of any kind and consents to
          such service in any suit, action or proceeding brought in the United States of America with respect to or otherwise arising out of or in connection with any Loan Document by any means permitted by applicable Requirements of Law, including by the
          mailing thereof (by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid) to the address of the Borrowers specified herein (and shall be effective when such mailing shall be effective, as provided therein).  Each Credit Party
          agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law.

     

        

    (d)       Non-Exclusive Jurisdiction.  Nothing contained in this Section 10.18 shall affect the right of Agent or any Lender to serve process in any other manner
          permitted by applicable Requirements of Law or commence legal proceedings or otherwise proceed against any Credit Party in any other jurisdiction.

     

        

    10.19    Waiver of Jury Trial.  THE PARTIES HERETO, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WAIVE ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, SUIT,

        CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE.

     

      

    10.20     Entire Agreement; Release; Survival.

     

      

    (a)         THE LOAN DOCUMENTS
          EMBODY THE ENTIRE AGREEMENT OF THE PARTIES AND SUPERSEDE ALL PRIOR AGREEMENTS AND UNDERSTANDINGS RELATING TO THE SUBJECT MATTER THEREOF AND ANY PRIOR LETTER OF INTEREST, COMMITMENT LETTER, CONFIDENTIALITY AND SIMILAR AGREEMENTS INVOLVING ANY
          CREDIT PARTY AND ANY LENDER OR ANY L/C ISSUER OR ANY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE AFFILIATES RELATING TO A FINANCING OF SUBSTANTIALLY SIMILAR FORM, PURPOSE OR EFFECT OTHER THAN THE FEE LETTER.  IN THE EVENT OF ANY CONFLICT BETWEEN THE TERMS OF THIS
          AGREEMENT AND ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT, THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT SHALL GOVERN (UNLESS OTHERWISE EXPRESSLY STATED IN SUCH OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR SUCH TERMS OF SUCH OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS ARE NECESSARY TO COMPLY WITH APPLICABLE REQUIREMENTS OF LAW,
          IN WHICH CASE SUCH TERMS SHALL GOVERN TO THE EXTENT NECESSARY TO COMPLY THEREWITH).

     

        

    (b)         Execution of this
          Agreement by the Credit Parties constitutes a full, complete and irrevocable release of any and all claims which each Credit Party may have at law or in equity in respect of all prior discussions and understandings, oral or written, relating to
          the subject matter of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.  In no event shall any Indemnitee be liable on any theory of liability for any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (including any loss of profits, business or
          anticipated savings).  Each of the Borrowers and each other Credit Party signatory hereto hereby waives, releases and agrees (and shall cause each other Credit Party to waive, release and agree) not to sue upon any such claim for any special,
          indirect, consequential or punitive damages, whether or not accrued and whether or not known or suspected to exist in its favor.

     

        

    (c)         (i) Any
          indemnification or other protection provided to any Indemnitee pursuant to this Section 10.20, Section 10.5 (Costs and Expenses) and Section 10.6 (Indemnity) and Article IX (The Agent) and Article XI (Taxes and Yield Protection) and (ii) the
          provisions of the Guaranty and Security Agreement – Credit Parties, the Collateralized Guaranty – Group, the Limited Guaranty – Holdings, and any other Guaranties, in each case, shall (x) survive the termination of the Allocations and the payment
          in full of all other Obligations and (y) with respect to clause (i) above, inure to the benefit of any Person that at any time held a right thereunder (as an Indemnitee or otherwise) and, thereafter,
          its successors and permitted assigns.

     

        

    
      98

      
        

    

    10.21     Patriot Act.

     

        

    (a)         Each Lender that is
          subject to the Patriot Act hereby notifies the Credit Parties that pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each Credit Party, which information includes the name and
          address of each Credit Party and other information that will allow such Lender to identify each Credit Party in accordance with the Patriot Act.

          

        

    (b)         The following
          notification is provided to Borrowers pursuant to Section 326 of the USA Patriot Act of 2001, 31 U.S.C. Section 5318: IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT PROCEDURES FOR OPENING A NEW ACCOUNT. To help the government fight the funding of terrorism and
          money laundering activities, Federal law requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each Person that opens an account, including any deposit account, treasury management account, loan, other
          extension of credit, or other financial services product.  What this means for the Borrowers:  When the Borrower opens an account, if the Borrower is not an individual a financial institution will ask for the Borrower’s name, taxpayer
          identification number, business address, and other information that will allow such financial institution to identify the Borrower. A financial institution may also ask to see the Borrower’s legal organizational documents or other identifying
          documents.

     

        

    10.22     Replacement of Lenders.  Within forty-five days after the occurrence of any of the following events:

     

      

    (a)          receipt by the Borrower Representative
        of written notice and demand from any Lender that is not Agent or an Affiliate of Agent (an “Affected Lender”) for payment of additional costs as provided in Sections 11.1 or 11.2; or

     

      

    (b)         any failure or refusal by any Lender
        (other than Agent or an Affiliate of Agent) to consent to a requested amendment, waiver or modification to any Loan Document in which Required Lenders have already consented to such amendment, waiver or modification but the consent of each Lender
        (or each Lender directly affected thereby, as applicable) is required with respect thereto,

     

      

    the Borrowers may, at their option, notify Agent and such Affected Lender (or such non-consenting Lender) of the Borrower’s intention to
      obtain, at the Borrower’s expense (other than with respect to the assignment fee (if any) specified in Section 10.9(d)), a replacement Lender (“Replacement Lender”) for such Affected Lender (or such non-consenting Lender), which Replacement Lender shall be reasonably satisfactory to Agent.  In the event the Borrowers obtain a Replacement Lender, the Affected Lender (or such
      non-consenting Lender) must sell and assign its Loans and Allocations to such Replacement Lender, at par, provided that the Borrowers have reimbursed such Affected Lender for its increased costs for which it is entitled to reimbursement under this
      Agreement through the date of such sale and assignment.  In the event that a replaced Lender does not execute an Assignment pursuant to Section 10.9 within five (5) Business Days after receipt by such
      replaced Lender of notice of replacement pursuant to this Section 10.22 and presentation to such replaced Lender of an Assignment evidencing an assignment pursuant to this Section

          10.22, the Borrowers shall be entitled (but not obligated) to execute such an Assignment on behalf of such replaced Lender, and any such Assignment so executed by the Borrower, the Replacement Lender and Agent, shall be effective for
      purposes of this Section 10.22 and Section 10.9.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to a Lender that is a Non-Funding Lender or and Impacted Lender,
      Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, obtain a Replacement Lender and execute an Assignment on behalf of such Non-Funding Lender or Impacted Lender at any time with three (3) Business Days’ prior notice to such Lender (unless notice is not
      practicable under the circumstances) and cause such Lender’s Loans and Allocations to be sold and assigned, in whole or in part, at par.  Upon any such assignment and payment and compliance with the other provisions of Section

          10.9, such replaced Lender shall no longer constitute a “Lender” for purposes hereof; provided, any rights of such replaced Lender to indemnification hereunder shall survive.

     

    

    
      99

      
        

    

    10.23      Joint and Several.  The obligations of the Credit Parties hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are joint and several.

     

        

    10.24     Creditor-Debtor Relationship.  The relationship between Agent, each Lender and the L/C Issuer, on the one hand, and the Credit
        Parties, on the other hand, is solely that of creditor and debtor.  No Secured Party has any fiduciary relationship or duty to any Credit Party arising out of or in connection with, and there is no agency, tenancy or joint
        venture relationship between the Secured Parties and the Credit Parties by virtue of, any Loan Document or any transaction contemplated therein.

     

      

    10.25     Actions in Concert.  Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, each Lender hereby agrees with each other Lender
        that no Lender shall take any action to protect or enforce its rights against any Credit Party arising out of this Agreement or any other Loan Document (including exercising any rights of setoff) without first obtaining the prior written consent of
        Agent or Required Lenders, it being the intent of Lenders that any such action to protect or enforce rights under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be taken in concert and at the direction or with the consent of Agent or Required
        Lenders.

     

      

    10.26     Keepwell. 

        Each Qualified ECP Guarantor hereby jointly and severally absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to provide such funds or other support as may be needed from time to time by each other Credit Party to guaranty and otherwise honor
        all of its payment obligations under the Guaranty in respect of Swap Obligations under any Secured Rate Contract (provided, however, that each Qualified ECP Guarantor shall only be liable under this Section 10.26
        for the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering its obligations under this Section 10.26, or otherwise under the Loan Documents, voidable under applicable
        Requirements of Law relating to voidable transfers, fraudulent conveyances or fraudulent transfers, and not for any greater amount). The obligations of each Qualified ECP Guarantor under this Section 10.26
        shall remain in full force and effect until the payment in full of the Secured Obligations. Each Qualified ECP Guarantor intends that this Section 10.26 constitute, and this Section 10.26 shall be deemed to constitute, a “keepwell, support, or other agreement” for the benefit of each other Credit Party for all purposes of Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity Exchange Act.

     

      

    10.27     Acknowledgement Regarding
            Any Supported QFCs.  To the extent that the Loan Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support, “QFC Credit Support” and each such QFC a “Supported QFC”), the parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power
        of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the “U.S. Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the Loan Documents and any Supported QFC may
        in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States or any other state of the United States): In the event a Covered Entity that is party to a Supported QFC (each, a “Covered Party”) becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any interest and obligation
        in or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property securing such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the
        U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and any such interest, obligation and rights in property) were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. For purposes of this Section,
        “Covered Entity” shall mean any of the following: (i) a “covered entity” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 252.82(b); (ii) a
        “covered bank” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 47.3(b); or (iii) a “covered FSI” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 382.2(b). In the event a Covered Party or a BHC
        Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, rights upon a Default or Event of Default under the Loan Documents that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support
        that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such rights upon a Default or Event of Default could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and the Loan
        Documents were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. As used in this Section, “BHC Act Affiliate” of a party means an “affiliate” (as
        such term is defined under, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 U.S.C. 1841(k)) of such party. Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a Non-Funding

        Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support.

    ARTICLE XI

    TAXES AND YIELD PROTECTION

     

    

    11.1       Increased Costs.

     

        

    (a)          Increased

              Costs Generally. If any Change in Law shall:

     

        

    (i)          impose, modify or
          deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender or any L/C Issuer;

     

        

    (ii)        subject Agent, any
          Lender or any L/C Issuer to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded
          Taxes and (C) Connection Income Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or

     

        

    (iii)        impose on any
          Lender or any L/C Issuer or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein;

     

        

    and the result
        of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender or L/C Issuer of making, converting to, continuing or
      maintaining any Loan or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan,
        or to increase the cost to such Lender or such L/C Issuer of
        participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit (or of maintaining its obligation to participate in or to issue any Letter of Credit), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or L/C Issuer hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then,
        upon request of such Lender or L/C Issuer, the Borrowers will pay
        to such Lender or L/C Issuer, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or L/C Issuer, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

     

    

    (b)         Capital Requirements. If any Lender or L/C Issuer determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or L/C Issuer or any lending office of such Lender or such Lender’s or L/C Issuer’s holding
          company, if any, regarding capital or liquidity requirements, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or L/C Issuer’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or L/C Issuer’s holding company, if any, as a
          consequence of this Agreement, the Allocations of such Lender or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit or Swingline Loans held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by any L/C Issuer, to a level below that which
          such Lender or L/C Issuer or such Lender’s or L/C Issuer’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or L/C Issuer’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or L/C Issuer’s holding
          company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time Borrowers will pay to such Lender or L/C Issuer, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or L/C Issuer or such Lender’s or L/C Issuer’s
          holding company for any such reduction suffered.

     

        

    (c)         Certificates for Reimbursement. A certificate of a Lender or L/C Issuer setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or L/C Issuer or its holding company, as the case may be, as
          specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section and delivered to the Borrower Representative, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Borrowers shall pay such Lender or L/C Issuer, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such
          certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.

          

        

    
      101

      
        

    

    (d)         Delay in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or L/C Issuer to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or L/C Issuer’s right to demand
          such compensation; provided that Borrowers shall not be required to compensate a Lender or L/C Issuer pursuant to this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than nine
          months prior to the date that such Lender or L/C Issuer, as the case may be, notifies Borrowers of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions, and of such Lender’s or L/C Issuer’s intention to claim compensation therefor
          (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the nine-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

     

        

    11.2        Taxes.

     

      

     
    (a)          Defined Terms. For purposes of this Section, the term “Lender” includes any L/C Issuer and the term “applicable law” includes FATCA.

          

        

    (b)        Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of Credit Parties under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by
          applicable law. If any applicable law (as determined in the good faith discretion of Borrowers) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a Borrower, then Borrowers shall be entitled to make such deduction or
          withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by a Credit Party shall be increased as
          necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no
          such deduction or withholding been made.

     

        

    (c)          Payment of Other Taxes by the Credit Parties. The Credit Parties shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law, or at the option of the Agent timely reimburse it
          for the payment of, any Other Taxes.

     

        

    (d)          Indemnification by the Borrower. The Borrowers shall indemnify each Lender, within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or
          asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by such Lender or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Lender and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether
          or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower Representative by a Lender (with a copy to
          the Agent), or by the Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

     

        

    (e)          Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by a Credit Party to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section, the Credit Party shall deliver to the Agent the original or a
          certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Agent.

     

        

    
      102

      
        

    

    (f)          Status of Lenders.

     

        

    (i)         Any Lender that is
          entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower Representative and the Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower
          Representative or the Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower Representative or the Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding.  In
          addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower Representative or the Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower Representative or the
          Agent as will enable the Borrower Representative or the Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements.  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 11.2(f)(ii) and (iii) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.

     

        

    (ii)         Without limiting
          the generality of the foregoing, each Non-U.S. Lender Party that, at any of the following times, is entitled to an exemption from United States withholding Tax or, after a change in any Requirement of Law, is subject to such withholding Tax at a
          reduced rate under an applicable Tax treaty, shall (w) on or prior to the date such Non-U.S. Lender Party becomes a “Non-U.S. Lender Party” hereunder, (x) on or prior to the date on which any such form or certification expires or becomes
          obsolete, (y) after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent form or certification previously delivered by it pursuant to this clause (ii) and (z) from time to time if
          requested by the Borrower Representative or Agent (or, in the case of a participant or SPV, the relevant Lender), provide Agent and the Borrower Representative (or, in the case of a participant or SPV, the relevant Lender) with two completed
          originals of each of the following, as applicable: (A) Forms W-8ECI (claiming exemption from U.S. withholding Tax because the income is effectively connected with a U.S. trade or business), W-8BEN or W-8 BEN-E, as applicable (claiming exemption
          from, or a reduction of, U.S. withholding Tax under an income Tax treaty), and/or W-8IMY (together with appropriate forms, certifications and supporting statements) or any successor forms, (B) in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender Party claiming
          exemption under Sections 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code, Form W‐8BEN or W-8 BEN-E, as applicable (claiming exemption from U.S. withholding Tax under the portfolio interest exemption), or any successor form and a certificate in form and substance
          acceptable to Agent that such Non-U.S. Lender Party is not (1) a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (2) a “10 percent shareholder” of a Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code or (3) a
          “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code or (C) any other applicable document prescribed by the IRS certifying as to the entitlement of such Non-U.S. Lender Party to such exemption from United States
          withholding Tax or reduced rate with respect to all payments to be made to such Non-U.S. Lender Party under the Loan Documents.  Unless the Borrower Representative and Agent have received forms or other documents satisfactory to them indicating
          that payments under any Loan Document to or for a Non-U.S. Lender Party are not subject to United States withholding Tax or are subject to such Tax at a rate reduced by an applicable Tax treaty, the Credit Parties and Agent shall withhold amounts
          required to be withheld by applicable Requirements of Law from such payments at the applicable statutory rate.

          

        

    (iii)        Each U.S. Lender
          Party shall (A) on or prior to the date such U.S. Lender Party becomes a “U.S. Lender Party” hereunder, (B) on or prior to the date on which any such form or
          certification expires or becomes obsolete, (C) after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent form or certification previously delivered by it pursuant to this clause (f) and
          (D) from time to time if requested by the Borrower Representative or Agent (or, in the case of a participant or SPV, the relevant Lender), provide Agent and the Borrower Representative (or, in the case of a participant or SPV, the relevant
          Lender) with two completed originals of Form W-9 (certifying that such U.S. Lender Party is entitled to an exemption from U.S. backup withholding Tax) or any successor form.

     

        

    
      103

      
        

    

    (iv)        Each Lender having
          sold a participation in any of its Obligations or identified an SPV as such to Agent shall collect from such participant or SPV the documents described in this clause (f) and provide them to Agent.

     

        

    (v)         If a payment made to
          a Non-U.S. Lender Party would be subject to United States federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Non-U.S. Lender Party fails to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA, such Non-U.S. Lender Party shall deliver to
          Agent and Borrower Representative any documentation under any Requirement of Law or reasonably requested by Agent or Borrower Representative sufficient for Agent or Borrowers to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such
          Non-U.S. Lender has complied with its obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment.  Solely for the purposes of this clause (v), “FATCA” shall include
          any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

     

        

    (g)         Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any Secured Party determines, in its sole and absolute discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Indemnified Taxes as to which it has been
          indemnified pursuant to this Section 11.2 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to Section 11.2(b)), it shall pay to the relevant
          Credit Party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section 11.2 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket
          expenses (including Taxes) of such Secured Party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund).  Such Credit Party, upon the request of such Secured Party, shall repay to
          such Secured Party the amount paid over pursuant to this Section 11.2(g) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such Secured
          Party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 11.2(g), in no event shall the Secured Party be required to pay any
          amount to a Credit Party pursuant to this Section 11.2(g) the payment of which would place the Secured Party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the Secured 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 Section 11.2(g) shall not be construed to require any Secured Party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the Credit Party or any other Person.

        impaired by (i) any payment on, or in reduction of, any such other guaranty or undertaking (other than payment in full of the Guarantied Obligations), (ii) any dissolution,
        termination, or increase, decrease, or change in personnel by any Grantor, (iii) any payment made to Agent or any Secured Party on account of the Secured
        Obligations which Agent or such Secured Party repays to any Grantor pursuant to court order in any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, moratorium or other debtor relief proceeding (or any settlement
        or compromise of any claim made in such a proceeding relating to such payment), and each of the Guarantors waives any right to the deferral or modification of its obligations hereunder by reason of any such proceeding, (iv) any action or inaction by Agent or any Secured Party, or (v) any invalidity, irregularity, avoidability, or unenforceability of all or any part of the Secured Obligations or of
        any security therefor.

       

      (d)        This Guaranty includes all present and future Guarantied Obligations including any under transactions continuing, compromising, extending,

        been satisfied in whole or in part.  To the maximum extent permitted by law, each Guarantor hereby waives any right to revoke this Guaranty as to future Guarantied Obligations.  If such a revocation is

        or change in the interest rate, payment terms, or other terms and conditions thereof), (iii) no such revocation shall apply to any Guarantied Obligations made or created after such date to the extent made or created pursuant
        to a legally binding commitment of any Lender, any Bank Product Provider, any L/C Issuer, or any Secured Swap Provider in existence on the date of such revocation, (iv) no payment by any Guarantor, any Borrower, or from any other source, prior to the date of Agent’s receipt of written notice of such revocation shall reduce the maximum obligation of such Guarantor hereunder, and (v) any payment by any Borrower or from any source other than such Guarantor subsequent to the date of such revocation shall first be applied to that portion of the Guarantied
        Obligations as to which the revocation is effective and which are not, therefore, guaranteed hereunder, and to the extent so applied shall not reduce the maximum obligation of such Guarantor hereunder.  This Guaranty

        shall be binding upon each Guarantor, its successors and assigns and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by Agent (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) and its successors, transferees, or
        assigns.

       

      (e)         The guaranty by each of the Guarantors hereunder is a guaranty of payment and not of collection. 
        The obligations of each of the Guarantors hereunder are independent of the obligations of any other Guarantor or Grantor or any other Person and a separate action or actions may be
        brought and prosecuted against one or more of the Guarantors whether or not action is brought against any other Guarantor or Grantor or any other Person and whether or not any other
        Guarantor or Grantor or any other Person be joined in any such action or actions.  Each of the Guarantors waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the benefit of any statute of
        limitations affecting its liability hereunder or the enforcement hereof.  Any payment by any Grantor or other circumstance which operates to toll any statute of limitations as to any Grantor shall operate
        to toll the statute of limitations as to each of the Guarantors.

      (i)          change the manner, place, or terms of payment of, or change or extend the time of payment of, renew, increase, accelerate, or alter: (A) any
        of the Secured Obligations (including any increase or decrease in the principal amount thereof or the rate of interest or fees thereon), or (B) any security therefor or any liability incurred directly or indirectly in respect
        thereof, and this Guaranty shall apply to the Secured Obligations as so changed, extended, renewed, or altered;

       

      (ii)        take and hold security for the payment of the Secured Obligations and sell, exchange, release, impair, surrender, realize upon, collect, settle, or otherwise deal

        this Guaranty) incurred directly or indirectly in respect thereof or hereof, or any offset on account thereof;

        creditors;

        Document, any Bank Product Agreement, any Secured Rate Contract, or any of such other instruments or agreements; or

       

      (viii)     take any other action that could, under otherwise applicable principles of law, give rise to a legal or equitable discharge of one or more of the Guarantors

        from all or part of its liabilities under this Guaranty (other than a defense of payment in full of the Guarantied Obligations).

       

      (g)          It is not necessary for Agent or any Secured Party to inquire into the capacity or powers of any of the Guarantors or
        the officers, directors, partners or agents acting or purporting to act on their behalf, and any Secured Obligations made or created in reliance upon the professed exercise of such powers shall be guaranteed hereunder.

      

      

      (h)         Each Guarantor jointly and severally guarantees that the Guarantied Obligations will be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of the Loan
        Documents, regardless of any law, regulation, or order now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction affecting any of such terms or the rights of any Secured Party with respect thereto.  The obligations of each Guarantor under this Guaranty are independent of the Guarantied Obligations, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against each Guarantor to enforce such
        obligations, irrespective of whether any action is brought against any other Guarantor or whether any other Guarantor is joined in any such action or actions.  The liability of each Guarantor

        under this Guaranty shall be absolute and unconditional irrespective of, and, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives any defense it may now or

        Secured Obligations to the extent of such payment.  Agent may, at the election of the Required Lenders, foreclose upon any Collateral held by Agent by one or more judicial or

        Party may have against any Grantor or any other Person, or any security, in each case, without affecting or impairing in any way the liability of any of the Guarantors hereunder except to the extent the
        Guarantied Obligations have been paid.

        extent of the risks which each of the Guarantors assumes and incurs hereunder, and agrees that neither Agent nor any Secured Party shall have any duty to advise any of the Guarantors
        of information known to them regarding such circumstances or risks.

       

      (iii)        To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Guarantor hereby waives:  (A) any right to assert against any Secured Party any

        impairment or elimination of such Guarantor’s rights of subrogation, reimbursement, contribution, or indemnity of such Guarantor against any Borrower or other guarantors

        or sureties, and (D) the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting such Guarantor’s liability hereunder or the enforcement thereof, and any act which shall defer or delay the operation of any statute of limitations
        applicable to the Guarantied Obligations shall similarly operate to defer or delay the operation of such statute of limitations applicable to such Guarantor’s liability hereunder.

       

      (iv)        No Guarantor will exercise any rights that it may now or hereafter acquire against any Grantor or any other guarantor that arise from the existence, payment, performance or enforcement of such Guarantor’s obligations under this Guaranty, including any right of subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution
        or indemnification and any right to participate in any claim or remedy of Agent or any Secured Party against any Grantor or any other guarantor or any Collateral,

        whether or not such claim, remedy or right arises in equity or under contract, statute or common law, including the right to take or receive from any Grantor or any other guarantor, directly or
        indirectly, in cash or other property or by set-off or in any other manner, payment or security solely on account of such claim, remedy or right, unless and until all of the Guarantied Obligations and all other amounts payable
        under this Guaranty shall have been paid in full in cash and all of the commitments under the Credit Agreement have been terminated.  If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor in violation of the
        immediately preceding sentence, such amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, and shall forthwith be paid to Agent to be credited and applied to the
        Guarantied Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Guaranty, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement, or to be held as Collateral for any Guarantied
        Obligations or other amounts payable under this Guaranty thereafter arising.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Guaranty, no Guarantor may exercise any rights of subrogation, contribution, indemnity,
        reimbursement or other similar rights against, and may not proceed or seek recourse against or with respect to any property or asset of, any other Grantor (the “Foreclosed
          Grantor”), including after payment in full of the Secured Obligations, if all or any portion of the Secured Obligations have been satisfied in connection with an exercise of remedies in respect of the Equity Interests
        of such Foreclosed Grantor whether pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise.

       

      (v)          Each of the Guarantors represents, warrants, and agrees that each of the waivers set forth above is made with full knowledge of its
        significance and consequences and that if any of such waivers are determined to be contrary to any applicable law or public policy, such waivers shall be effective to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law.

      (l)          all of such Grantor’s Investment Property;

       

      (m)         all of such Grantor’s Intellectual Property and Intellectual Property Licenses;

       

      (n)          all of such Grantor’s Negotiable Collateral (including all of such Grantor’s Pledged Notes);

       

      (o)          all of such Grantor’s Pledged Interests (including all of such Grantor’s
        Pledged Operating Agreements and Pledged Partnership Agreements);

       

      (p)          all of such Grantor’s Securities Accounts;

       

      (q)          all of such Grantor’s Supporting Obligations;

       

      (r)          all of such Grantor’s Vendor Credits;

       

      (s)          all of such Grantor’s money, Cash Equivalents, or other assets of such Grantor
        that now or hereafter come into the possession, custody, or control of Agent (or its agent or designee) or any Secured Party; and

       

      (t)          all of the Proceeds and products, whether tangible or intangible, of any of the foregoing, including proceeds of
        insurance or Commercial Tort Claims covering or relating to any or all of the foregoing, and any and all Accounts, Books, Chattel Paper, Deposit Accounts, Equipment, Farm Products, Fixtures, General Intangibles, Inventory, Investment Property, Intellectual Property, Negotiable Collateral, Pledged Interests, Securities Accounts, Supporting Obligations, money, or other tangible or intangible property resulting from the sale, lease, license, exchange, collection, or
        other disposition of any of the foregoing, the proceeds of any award in condemnation with respect to any of the foregoing, any rebates or refunds, whether for taxes or otherwise, and all proceeds of any
        such proceeds, or any portion thereof or interest therein, and the proceeds thereof, and all proceeds of any loss of, damage to, or destruction of the above, whether insured or
        not insured, and, to the extent not otherwise included, any indemnity, warranty, or guaranty payable by reason of loss or damage to, or otherwise with respect to any of the foregoing (the “Proceeds”).  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the term “Proceeds” includes whatever is
        receivable or received when Investment Property or proceeds are sold, exchanged, collected, or otherwise disposed of, whether such disposition is voluntary or involuntary, and includes proceeds

        of any indemnity or guaranty payable to any Grantor or Agent from time to time with respect to any of the Investment Property;

       

      
        10

        
          

      

      provided, however, notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, the term “Collateral” shall not include any Excluded Property of any
        Grantor.

       

      4.          Security for Secured Obligations.  The Security Interest created hereby secures the payment and performance of the Secured
        Obligations, whether now existing or arising hereafter.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, this Agreement secures the payment of all amounts which constitute part of the Secured Obligations and would be owed
        by Grantors, or any of them, to Agent or any Secured Party, but for the fact that they are unenforceable or not allowable (in whole or in part) as a claim in an Insolvency Proceeding involving any Grantor due to the existence of such Insolvency Proceeding.  Further, the Security Interest created hereby encumbers each Grantor’s right, title, and interest in all Collateral, whether now owned by such Grantor or hereafter acquired, obtained, developed, or created by such Grantor and wherever located.

       

      5.          Grantors Remain Liable.  Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, (a) each of the Grantors

        shall remain liable under the contracts and agreements included in the Collateral, including the Pledged Operating Agreements and the Pledged Partnership
        Agreements, to perform all of the duties and obligations thereunder to the same extent as if this Agreement had not been executed, (b) the exercise by Agent or any Secured Party
        of any of the rights hereunder shall not release any Grantor from any of its duties or obligations under such contracts and agreements included in the Collateral, and (c) none of the Secured Parties shall have any obligation or liability under such contracts and agreements included in the Collateral by reason of this Agreement,

        nor shall any Secured Party be obligated to perform any of the obligations or duties of any Grantors thereunder or to take any action to collect or enforce any claim for payment assigned hereunder.  Until an Event of Default
        shall occur and be continuing, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the Credit Agreement, or any other Loan Document, Grantors shall have the right to possession and
        enjoyment of the Collateral for the purpose of conducting the ordinary course of their respective businesses, subject to and upon the terms hereof and of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is the intention of the parties hereto that record and beneficial ownership of the Pledged Interests, including all
        voting, consensual, dividend, and distribution rights, shall remain in the applicable Grantor until (i) the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, and (ii) Agent has notified the applicable Grantor of Agent’s election to exercise such rights with respect to the Pledged Interests
        pursuant to Section 16.

       

      6.         Representations and Warranties.  In order to induce Agent to enter into this Agreement for the benefit of the
        Secured Parties, each Grantor makes the following representations and warranties to the Secured Parties which shall be true, correct, and complete, in all material respects (except that such materiality qualifier shall not be
        applicable to any representations and warranties that already are qualified or modified by materiality in the text thereof), as of the Closing Date, and shall be true, correct, and complete, in all material respects (except that such materiality
        qualifier shall not be applicable to any representations and warranties that already are qualified or modified by materiality in the text thereof), as of the date of the making of each Loan (or other extension of credit) made thereafter, as though
        made on and as of the date of such Loan (or other extension of credit) (except to the extent that such representations and warranties relate solely to an earlier date, in which case such representations and warranties shall

        and such representations and warranties shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement:

        five (5) Business Days (or such longer period as agreed to by Agent in writing in its sole discretion)) after request by Agent, shall execute such other documents and instruments as shall be requested by Agent or, if applicable, endorse and deliver physical possession of such Negotiable Collateral, Investment Property, or Chattel Paper to Agent, together with such undated powers (or other relevant document of transfer acceptable to Agent) endorsed in blank as shall be requested by Agent,

        shall be marked with the following legend: “This writing and the obligations evidenced or secured hereby are subject to the Security Interest of Wells Fargo Commercial Distribution Finance, LLC, as Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties.”

        Leases), perfected security interest in any such Commercial Tort Claim.

        Agent with a written report of all new Patents, Trademarks or Copyrights that are registered or the subject of pending applications for registrations, and of
        all Intellectual Property Licenses that are material to the conduct of such Grantor’s business, in each case, which were acquired, registered, or for which applications for registration were filed by
        any Grantor during the prior period and any statement of use or amendment to allege use with respect to intent-to-use trademark applications.  In the case of such registrations
        or applications therefor, which were acquired by any Grantor, each such Grantor shall file the necessary documents with the appropriate Governmental Authority identifying the
        applicable Grantor as the owner (or as a co-owner thereof, if such is the case) of such Intellectual Property.  In each of the foregoing cases, the applicable Grantor shall
        promptly cause to be prepared, executed, and delivered to Agent supplemental schedules to the applicable Loan Documents to identify such Patent, Trademark and Copyright

        registrations and applications therefor (with the exception of Trademark applications filed on an intent-to-use basis for which no statement of use or amendment to allege use has been filed) and Intellectual

        Property Licenses as being subject to the security interests created thereunder;

       

      
        16

        
          

      

      (vi)        Anything to the contrary in this Agreement notwithstanding, in no event shall any Grantor, either itself or through
        any agent, employee, licensee, or designee, file an application for the registration of any Copyright with the United States Copyright Office or any similar office or agency in another country without
        giving Agent written notice thereof at least five (5) Business Days prior to such filing and complying with Section 7(g)(i).  Upon receipt from the United States Copyright Office of
        notice of registration of any Copyright, each Grantor shall promptly (but in no event later than five (5) Business Days (or such longer period as agreed to by Agent in writing in
        its sole discretion) following such receipt) notify (but without duplication of any notice required by Section 7(g)(v)) Agent of such registration by delivering, or
        causing to be delivered, to Agent, documentation sufficient for Agent to perfect Agent’s Liens on such Copyright.  If any Grantor acquires from any Person
        any Copyright registered with the United States Copyright Office or an application to register any Copyright with the United States Copyright Office, such Grantor shall promptly
        (but in no event later than five (5) Business Days (or such longer period as agreed to by Agent in writing in its sole discretion) following such acquisition) notify Agent of such acquisition and
        deliver, or cause to be delivered, to Agent, documentation sufficient for Agent to perfect Agent’s Liens on such Copyright.  In the case of such Copyright
        registrations or applications therefor which were acquired by any Grantor, each such Grantor shall promptly (but in no event later than five (5) Business Days (or such longer period as agreed to by Agent in writing in its sole discretion) following such acquisition) file the necessary documents with the appropriate Governmental Authority identifying the applicable Grantor as
        the owner (or as a co-owner thereof, if such is the case) of such Copyrights;

       

      (vii)       Each Grantor shall take reasonable steps to maintain the confidentiality of, and otherwise protect and enforce its rights in, the Intellectual Property that is necessary in or material to the conduct of such Grantor’s business, including, as applicable (A) protecting the secrecy and confidentiality of its confidential information
        and trade secrets by having and enforcing a policy requiring all current employees, consultants, licensees, vendors and contractors with access to such information to execute appropriate confidentiality agreements, (B) taking
        actions reasonably necessary to ensure that no trade secret falls into the public domain, and (C) protecting the secrecy and confidentiality of the source code of all software programs and applications of which it is the
        owner or licensee by having and enforcing a policy requiring any licensees (or sublicensees) of such source code to enter into license agreements with commercially reasonable use and non-disclosure
        restrictions;

       

      (viii)      No Grantor shall incorporate into any proprietary software licensed or distributed by such Grantor that is material to generating revenue for such Grantor any third-party code that is
        licensed pursuant to any open source license such as the GNU Public License, Lesser GNU Public License, or Mozilla Public License, in a manner that would require or condition the use or distribution of such software on, the disclosing, licensing,
        or distribution of any source code for any portion of the proprietary software that is licensed or distributed by any Grantor; and

       

      (ix)        No Grantor shall enter into any Intellectual Property License material to the conduct of the business to receive any license or rights in
        any Intellectual Property of any other Person unless such Grantor has used commercially reasonable efforts to permit the assignment of or grant of a security interest in such Intellectual Property License (and all rights of Grantor thereunder) to Agent (and any transferees of Agent).

       

      (h)          Investment Property.

       

      (i)          If any Grantor shall acquire, obtain, receive or become entitled to receive any Pledged Interests after the Closing
        Date, it shall promptly (and in any event within five (5) Business Days (or such longer period as agreed to by Agent in writing in its sole discretion) of acquiring or obtaining such Collateral)

        deliver to Agent a duly executed Pledged Interests Addendum identifying such Pledged Interests;

       

      
        17

        
          

      

      (ii)        Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, following the request of Agent, all sums of money and property paid
        or distributed in respect of the Investment Property that are received by any Grantor shall be held by the Grantors in trust for the benefit of Agent segregated from such Grantor’s other property, and such Grantor shall deliver it forthwith to Agent in the exact form received;

       

      (iii)       Each Grantor shall promptly deliver to Agent a copy of each material notice or other material communication received
        by it in respect of any Pledged Interests;

       

      (iv)       No Grantor shall make or consent to any amendment or other modification or waiver with respect to any Pledged
        Interests, Pledged Operating Agreement, or Pledged Partnership Agreement, or enter into any agreement or permit to exist any restriction with respect to any
        Pledged Interests if the same is prohibited pursuant to the Loan Documents;

      

      

      (v)         Each Grantor agrees that it will cooperate with Agent in obtaining all necessary approvals and making all necessary
        filings under federal, state, local, or foreign law to effect the perfection of the Security Interest on the Investment Property or to effect any sale or transfer thereof;

       

      (vi)        As to all limited liability company or partnership interests owned by such Grantor and issued under any Pledged
        Operating Agreement or Pledged Partnership Agreement, each Grantor hereby covenants that the Pledged Interests issued pursuant to such agreement (A) are not
        and shall not be dealt in or traded on securities exchanges or in securities markets, (B) do not and will not constitute investment company securities, and (C) are not and will not be held by such Grantor in a Securities Account.  In addition, none of the Pledged Operating Agreements, the Pledged Partnership Agreements, or any other agreements governing any of the Pledged Interests issued under any Pledged Operating Agreement or Pledged Partnership Agreement, provides or shall provide that such Pledged Interests are
        securities governed by Article 8 of the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in any relevant jurisdiction; and

       

      (vii)        With regard to any Pledged Interests that are not certificated, any such Grantor of such non-certificated Pledged Interests (i) agrees promptly to note on its books the security interests granted to Agent and confirmed under this Agreement,
        (ii) agrees that after the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, it will comply with instructions of Agent or its nominee with respect to the applicable Pledged Interests
        without further consent by the applicable Grantor, (iii) to the extent permitted by law, agrees that the “issuer’s jurisdiction” (as defined in Section 8-110 of the UCC) is the State of New York, (iv) agrees to notify Agent upon obtaining knowledge of any interest in favor of any person in the applicable Pledged Interests that is materially adverse to the interest of the Agent therein, other than
        any Permitted Liens and (v) waives any right or requirement at any time hereafter to receive a copy of this Agreement in connection with the registration of any Pledged Interests hereunder in the name
        of Agent or its nominee or the exercise of voting rights by Agent or its nominee.

       

      (i)         Real Estate; Fixtures; Property; Landlord Agreements.  Each Grantor acknowledges
        and agrees that, to the extent permitted by applicable law, all of the Collateral shall remain personal property regardless of the manner of its attachment or affixation to Real Estate.  Each Grantor
        shall maintain its Property and obtain landlord agreements, bailee, and mortgagee waivers as required by the Credit Agreement.

       

      (j)          Transfers and Other Liens.  Grantors shall not (i) sell, assign (by operation of law or otherwise) or
        otherwise dispose of, or grant any option with respect to, any of the Collateral, except as expressly permitted by the Credit Agreement, or (ii) create or permit to exist any Lien
        upon or with respect to any of the Collateral of any Grantor, except for Permitted Liens.  The inclusion of Proceeds in the Collateral shall not be deemed
        to constitute Agent’s consent to any sale or other disposition of any of the Collateral except as expressly permitted in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents.

       

      
        18

        
          

      

      (k)          [Reserved].

       

      (l)        Name, Etc.  No Grantor will change its name, chief executive office, organizational identification number,
        jurisdiction of organization or organizational identity; provided, that any Grantor may change its name or chief executive office upon at least ten (10) days prior written notice to Agent of
        such change.

       

      (m)        Account Verification. Each Grantor will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, permit Agent,

        in Agent’s name or in the name or a nominee of Agent, to verify the validity, amount or any other matter relating to any Account, by mail, telephone, facsimile transmission or
        other electronic means of transmission or otherwise.  Further, at the request of Agent, each Grantor will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, send requests for verification of Accounts or, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, send notices of assignment of Accounts to Account Debtors and other obligors.

       

      (n)          [Reserved].

       

      (o)          Pledged Notes.   Grantors (i) without the prior written consent
        of Agent, will not (A) waive or release any obligation of any Person that is obligated under any of the Pledged Notes, (B) take or omit to take any action or knowingly suffer or permit any action to be
        omitted or taken, the taking or omission of which would result in any right of offset against sums payable under the Pledged Notes, or (C) other than permitted dispositions under Section 6.2 of the
        Credit Agreement, assign or surrender their rights and interests under any of the Pledged Notes or terminate, cancel, modify, change, supplement or amend the Pledged Notes, and (ii)

        shall provide to Agent copies of all material written notices (including notices of default) given or received with respect to the Pledged Notes promptly after giving or receiving such notice.

       

      (p)          Keepwell.  Each Qualified ECP Grantor hereby jointly and severally absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to provide such funds or other
        support as may be needed from time to time by each other Credit Party to guaranty and otherwise honor all of its payment obligations under the Guaranty in respect of Swap Obligations under any Secured Rate Contract (provided, however, that each
        Qualified ECP Grantor shall only be liable under this Section 7(p) for the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering its obligations under this Section 7(p), or otherwise under the Loan
        Documents, voidable under applicable Requirements of Law relating to voidable transfers, fraudulent conveyances, or fraudulent transfers, and not for any greater amount). The obligations of each Qualified ECP Grantor under this Section 7(p)
        shall remain in full force and effect until the payment in full of the Secured Obligations.  Each Qualified ECP Grantor intends that this Section 7(p) constitute, and this Section 7(p) shall be deemed to constitute, a “keepwell,
        support, or other agreement” for the benefit of each other Credit Party for all purposes of Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity Exchange Act.

       

      8.           Relation to Other Security Documents.  The provisions of this Agreement shall be read and construed
        with the other Loan Documents referred to below in the manner so indicated.

       

      (a)          Credit Agreement. In the event of any conflict between any provision in this Agreement and a provision in the
        Credit Agreement, such provision of the Credit Agreement shall control.

       

      (b)        Patent, Trademark, Copyright Security Agreements.  The provisions of the Copyright Security Agreements, Trademark

        Security Agreements, and Patent Security Agreements are supplemental to the provisions of this Agreement, and nothing contained in the Copyright Security Agreements, Trademark Security Agreements, or the Patent Security Agreements shall limit any of the rights or remedies of Agent hereunder. In the event of any conflict between any provision in
        this Agreement and a provision in a Copyright Security Agreement, Trademark Security Agreement or Patent Security Agreement, such provision of this Agreement shall control.

       

      
        19

        
          

      

      9.           Further Assurances.

       

      (a)         Each Grantor agrees that from time to time, at its own expense, such Grantor will promptly execute and deliver all
        further instruments and documents, and take all further action, that Agent may reasonably request, in order to perfect and protect the Security Interest
        granted hereby, to create, perfect or protect the Security Interest purported to be granted hereby or to enable Agent to exercise and enforce its rights and remedies hereunder with respect to any of the
        Collateral.

       

      (b)         Each Grantor authorizes the filing by Agent of financing or continuation statements, or amendments thereto, and such
        Grantor will execute and deliver to Agent such other instruments or notices, as Agent may reasonably request, in order to perfect and preserve the Security Interest granted or purported to be granted hereby.

       

      (c)          Each Grantor authorizes Agent at any time and from time to time to file, transmit, or communicate, as applicable,
        financing statements and amendments (i) describing the Collateral as “all personal property of debtor” or “all assets of debtor” or words of similar effect, (ii) describing the Collateral as being of equal or lesser scope or with greater detail, or (iii) that contain any information required by part 5 of Article 9 of the Code for
        the sufficiency or filing office acceptance.  Each Grantor also hereby ratifies the financing statements or amendments previously filed by Agent in any jurisdiction in connection with that certain
        Amended and Restated Agreement for Wholesale Financing, dated as of July 23, 2012 (as the same has been amended, extended, supplemented or modified prior to the date hereof, the “Existing AWF”),

        by and among the Agent, as lender, and Borrowers and that certain Amended and Restated Business Financing Agreement, dated as of July 23, 2012 (as the same has been amended, extended, supplemented or modified prior to the date hereof, the “Existing BFA”), by and among the Agent, as lender, and Borrowers.

       

      (d)        Each Grantor acknowledges that it is not authorized to file any financing statement or amendment or termination statement with respect to any
        financing statement filed in connection with this Agreement without the prior written consent of Agent, subject to such Grantor’s rights under Section 9-509(d)(2) of the Code.

       

      10.        Agent’s Right to Perform Contracts, Exercise Rights, etc.  Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Agent

        (or its designee) (a) may proceed to perform any and all of the obligations of any Grantor contained in any contract, lease, or other agreement and exercise any and all rights of
        any Grantor therein contained as fully as such Grantor itself could, (b) shall have the right (subject to Section 17(b))
        to use any Grantor’s rights under Intellectual Property Licenses in connection with the enforcement of Agent’s rights hereunder, including the right to prepare for sale and sell
        any and all Inventory and Equipment now or hereafter owned by any Grantor and now or hereafter covered by such licenses, and (c) shall have the right to
        request that any Equity Interests that are pledged hereunder be registered in the name of Agent or any of its nominees.

       

      11.         Agent Appointed Attorney-in-Fact.  Each Grantor hereby irrevocably appoints Agent its attorney-in-fact, with
        full authority in the place and stead of such Grantor and in the name of such Grantor or otherwise, at such time as an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing under the Credit Agreement, to take any action and to execute any instrument which Agent may reasonably deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, including:

       

      (a)         to ask, demand, collect, sue for, recover, compromise, receive and give acquittance and receipts for moneys due and to become due under or in connection with the Accounts or any other Collateral of such Grantor;

       

      
        20

        
          

      

      (b)          to receive and open all mail addressed to such Grantor and to notify postal authorities to change the address for the delivery of mail to
        such Grantor to that of Agent;

       

      (c)          to receive, indorse, and collect any drafts or other instruments, documents, Negotiable Collateral or Chattel Paper;

       

      (d)          to file any claims or take any action or institute any proceedings which Agent may deem necessary or desirable for the collection of any of
        the Collateral of such Grantor or otherwise to enforce the rights of Agent with respect to any of the Collateral;

       

      (e)          to repair, alter, or supply Goods, if any, necessary to fulfill in whole or in part the purchase order of any Person obligated to such Grantor

        in respect of any Account of such Grantor;

       

      (f)          to use any Intellectual Property or Intellectual Property Licenses of such Grantor, including but not limited to any labels, Patents, Trademarks, trade names, URLs, domain names, industrial designs, Copyrights,
        or advertising matter, in preparing for sale, advertising for sale, or selling Inventory or other Collateral and to collect any amounts due under Accounts, contracts or Negotiable Collateral of such Grantor; and

       

      (g)          Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, shall have the right, but shall not be obligated, to bring suit in its own name to enforce the Intellectual Property and Intellectual Property Licenses and, if Agent shall commence any such suit, the appropriate Grantor shall, at the request of Agent, do any and all lawful acts and execute any and all proper documents reasonably required by Agent in aid of such enforcement.

       

      To the extent permitted by law, each Grantor hereby ratifies all that such attorney-in-fact shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof.
        This power of attorney is coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable until this Agreement is terminated.

       

      12.        Agent May Perform.  If any Grantor fails to perform any agreement contained
        herein, Agent may itself perform, or cause performance of, such agreement, and the reasonable expenses of Agent incurred in connection therewith shall be payable, jointly and
        severally, by Grantors in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement.

       

      13.         Agent’s Duties.  The powers conferred on Agent hereunder are solely to protect Agent’s
        interest in the Collateral, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, and shall not impose any duty upon Agent to exercise any such powers.  Except for the safe custody of any Collateral

        in its actual possession and the accounting for moneys actually received by it hereunder, Agent shall have no duty as to any Collateral or as to the taking of any necessary steps to preserve rights
        against prior parties or any other rights pertaining to any Collateral.  Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of any Collateral
        in its actual possession if such Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which Agent accords its own property.

       

      14.         Collection of Accounts, General Intangibles and Negotiable Collateral. 

        At any time upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Agent or Agent’s designee may (a) make direct verification from Account
        Debtors with respect to any or all Accounts that are part of the Collateral, (b) notify Account Debtors of any Grantor that the Accounts, General Intangibles, Chattel Paper or Negotiable Collateral of such Grantor have been assigned to Agent,

        for the benefit of the Secured Parties, or that Agent has a security interest therein, or (c) collect the Accounts, General
        Intangibles and Negotiable Collateral of any Grantor directly, and any collection costs and expenses shall constitute part of such Grantor’s Secured Obligations under the Loan Documents.

       

      
        21

        
          

      

      15.        Disposition of Pledged Interests by Agent.  None of the Pledged Interests
        existing as of the date of this Agreement are, and none of the Pledged Interests hereafter acquired on the date of acquisition thereof will be, registered or qualified under the various federal or state
        securities laws of the United States and disposition thereof after an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing may be restricted to one or more private (instead of public) sales in view of the lack of such registration.  Each Grantor understands that in connection with such disposition, Agent may approach only a restricted number of potential purchasers and further understands that a sale under such circumstances may yield a
        lower price for the Pledged Interests than if the Pledged Interests were registered and qualified pursuant to federal and state securities laws and sold on the open market.  Each Grantor,

        therefore, agrees that:  (a) if Agent shall, pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, sell or cause the Pledged Interests or any portion thereof to be sold
        at a private sale, Agent shall have the right to rely upon the advice and opinion of any nationally recognized brokerage or investment firm (but shall not be obligated to seek such advice and the failure to do so shall not be
        considered in determining the commercial reasonableness of such action) as to the best manner in which to offer the Pledged Interest or any portion thereof for sale and as to the best price reasonably obtainable at the
        private sale thereof, and (b) such reliance shall be conclusive evidence that Agent has handled the disposition in a commercially reasonable manner.

       

      16.          Voting and Other Rights in Respect of Pledged Interests.

       

      (a)         Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, (i) Agent may, at its option, and with two
        (2) Business Days prior notice to any Grantor (unless such Event of Default is an Event of Default specified in Section 8.1(f) or (g) of the Credit
        Agreement, in which case no such notice need be given), and in addition to all rights and remedies available to Agent under any other agreement, at law, in equity, or otherwise, exercise all voting
        rights, or any other ownership or consensual rights (including any dividend or distribution rights) in respect of the Pledged Interests owned by such Grantor, but under no circumstances is Agent obligated by the terms of this Agreement to exercise such rights, and (ii) if Agent duly exercises its right to vote any of such Pledged

        Interests, each Grantor hereby appoints Agent, such Grantor’s true and lawful attorney-in-fact and IRREVOCABLE PROXY to vote such Pledged Interests in any manner Agent deems advisable for or against all matters submitted or which may be submitted to a vote of shareholders, partners or members, as the case may be.  The
        power-of-attorney and proxy granted hereby is coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable.

       

      (b)          For so long as any Grantor shall have the right to vote the Pledged Interests owned by it, such Grantor

        covenants and agrees that it will not, without the prior written consent of Agent, vote or take any consensual action with respect to such Pledged Interests which would materially adversely affect the
        rights of Agent or the Secured Parties, or the value of the Pledged Interests.

       

      17.         Remedies.  Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default:

       

      (a)         Agent may, and, at the instruction of the Required Lenders, shall exercise in respect of the Collateral,

        in addition to other rights and remedies provided for herein, in the other Loan Documents, or otherwise available to it, all the rights and remedies of a secured party on default under the Code or any
        other applicable law.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Grantor expressly agrees that, in any such event, Agent without demand of performance or other demand, advertisement or
        notice of any kind (except a notice specified below of time and place of public or private sale) to or upon any Grantor or any other Person (all and each of which demands, advertisements and notices are
        hereby expressly waived to the maximum extent permitted by the Code or any other applicable law), may take immediate possession of all or any portion of the Collateral and (i)
        require Grantors to, and each Grantor hereby agrees that it will at its own expense and upon request of Agent forthwith, assemble all or part of the Collateral

        as directed by Agent and make it available to Agent at one or more locations where such Grantor regularly maintains Inventory, and (ii)

        without notice except as specified below, sell the Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale, at any of Agent’s offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit, and upon
        such other terms as Agent may deem commercially reasonable.  Each Grantor agrees that, to the extent notification of sale shall be required by law, at least ten days notification by mail to the
        applicable Grantor of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale is to be made shall constitute reasonable notification and specifically such notification shall
        constitute a reasonable “authenticated notification of disposition” within the meaning of Section 9-611 of the Code.  Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of Collateral regardless of notification of sale having been given.  Agent may adjourn any public sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such
        sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned.  Each Grantor agrees that (A) the internet shall constitute a “place”

        for purposes of Section 9-610(b) of the Code, and (B) to the extent notification of sale shall be required by law, notification by mail of the URL where a sale will occur and the
        time when a sale will commence at least ten days prior to the sale shall constitute a reasonable notification for purposes of Section 9-611(b) of the Code.  Each Grantor agrees that any sale of Collateral to a licensor pursuant to the terms of a license agreement between such licensor and a Grantor is sufficient to constitute a commercially reasonable sale (including as to
        method, terms, manner, and time) within the meaning of Section 9-610 of the Code.

       

      
        22

        
          

      

      (b)          Agent is hereby granted a license or other right to use, without liability for royalties or any other charge,
        each Grantor’s Intellectual Property, including but not limited to, any labels, Patents, Trademarks, trade names, URLs, domain names
        (including, but not limited to, the domain names listed on Schedule 10), industrial designs, Copyrights, and advertising matter, whether owned by any Grantor or with respect to which any Grantor has rights under license, sublicense, or other agreements (including any Intellectual Property License) as it pertains to the Collateral, in preparing
        for sale, advertising for sale and selling any Collateral, and each Grantor’s rights under all licenses and all franchise agreements shall inure to the benefit of Agent.

       

      (c)          Agent may, in addition to other rights and remedies provided for herein, in the other Loan Documents, or otherwise available to it under
        applicable law and without the requirement of notice to or upon any Grantor or any other Person (which notice is hereby expressly waived to the maximum extent permitted by the Code or any other
        applicable law), (i) with respect to any Grantor’s Deposit Accounts in which Agent’s Liens are perfected by control under Section 9-104 of the Code, instruct the bank maintaining such Deposit

        Account for the applicable Grantor to pay the balance of such Deposit Account to or for the benefit of Agent, and (ii) with respect to any Grantor’s
        Securities Accounts in which Agent’s Liens are perfected by control under Section 9-106 of the Code, instruct the securities intermediary maintaining such Securities Account for
        the applicable Grantor to (A) transfer any cash in such Securities Account to or for the benefit of Agent, or (B) liquidate any financial assets in such Securities

        Account that are customarily sold on a recognized market and transfer the cash proceeds thereof to or for the benefit of Agent.

       

      (d)         Any cash held by Agent as Collateral and all cash proceeds received by Agent

        in respect of any sale of, collection from, or other realization upon all or any part of the Collateral shall be applied against the Secured Obligations in the order set forth in the Credit Agreement.
        In the event the proceeds of Collateral are insufficient to satisfy all of the Secured Obligations in full, each Grantor shall remain jointly and severally liable for any such
        deficiency.

       

      (e)          Each Grantor hereby acknowledges that the Secured Obligations arise out of a commercial transaction, and agrees that if an Event of Default
        shall occur and be continuing Agent shall have the right, to the extent permitted by applicable law, to an immediate writ of possession without notice of a hearing.  Agent shall have the right, to the
        extent permitted by applicable law, to the appointment of a receiver for the properties and assets of each Grantor, and each Grantor hereby consents to such rights and such appointment and hereby waives
        any objection such Grantor may have thereto or the right to have a bond or other security posted by Agent, to the extent permitted by applicable law.

       

      18.          Remedies Cumulative.  Each right, power, and remedy of Agent or any Secured Party as provided for in this Agreement,

        the other Loan Documents any Bank Product Agreement or any Secured Rate Contract now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise shall be cumulative and concurrent and shall be in addition to every
        other right, power, or remedy provided for in this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, the Bank Product Agreements, and the Secured Rate Contracts or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by
        statute or otherwise, and the exercise or beginning of the exercise by Agent or any Secured Party, of any one or more of such rights, powers, or remedies shall not preclude the simultaneous or later exercise by Agent or such Secured Party of any or all such other rights, powers, or remedies.

       

      
        23

        
          

      

      19.        Marshaling.  Agent shall not be required to marshal any present or future collateral security (including but not limited to the
        Collateral) for, or other assurances of payment of, the Secured Obligations or any of them or to resort to such collateral security or other assurances of payment in any particular order, and all of its rights and remedies hereunder and in respect
        of such collateral security and other assurances of payment shall be cumulative and in addition to all other rights and remedies, however existing or arising. To the extent that it lawfully may, each Grantor hereby agrees that it will not invoke
        any law relating to the marshaling of collateral which might cause delay in or impede the enforcement of Agent’s rights and remedies under this Agreement or under any other instrument creating or evidencing any of the Secured Obligations or under
        which any of the Secured Obligations is outstanding or by which any of the Secured Obligations is secured or payment thereof is otherwise assured, and, to the extent that it lawfully may, each Grantor hereby irrevocably waives the benefits of all
        such laws.

       

      20.         Indemnity.  Each Grantor agrees to indemnify Agent and each Secured Party from and against all claims,
        lawsuits and liabilities (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of or resulting from this Agreement (including enforcement of this Agreement) or any other Loan Document to which such Grantor is a party in accordance with and to the extent set forth in Section 10.6 of the Credit Agreement.  This provision shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the Credit Agreement and the repayment of the Secured Obligations.

       

      21.       Merger, Amendments; Etc.  THIS AGREEMENT, TOGETHER WITH THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, REPRESENTS THE FINAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES
        AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS OR ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES.  THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES.  No waiver of any provision of this Agreement,

        and no consent to any departure by any Grantor herefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by Agent, and then such waiver or consent
        shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given.  No amendment of any provision of this Agreement shall be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by Agent and each Grantor to which such amendment applies.

       

      22.         Addresses for Notices.  All notices and other communications provided for hereunder shall be given in the form and manner and delivered to Agent at its address specified in Section 10.2 of the Credit Agreement, and to any of the Grantors at the notice address specified for Borrowers in the Credit Agreement, or as to any party, at such other address as shall be designated by such party in a written notice to the other party.

       

      23.         Continuing Security Interest: Assignments under Credit Agreement.

       

      (a)          This Agreement shall create a continuing security interest in the Collateral and shall (i) remain in full force and effect until the Secured Obligations have been paid in full in accordance with the provisions of the Credit Agreement and all of the commitments under the Credit

        Agreement have expired or have been terminated, (ii) be binding upon each Grantor, and their respective successors and assigns, and (iii) inure to the benefit of, and be
        enforceable by, Agent, and its successors, transferees and assigns.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing clause (iii), any Lender may, in accordance with the
        provisions of Section 10.9 the Credit Agreement, assign or otherwise transfer all or any portion of its rights and obligations under the Credit Agreement to any other Person, and
        such other Person shall thereupon become vested with all the benefits in respect thereof granted to such Lender herein or otherwise.  Upon payment in full of the Secured Obligations in accordance with the provisions of the Credit

        Agreement and the expiration or termination of all of the commitments under the Credit Agreement, the Guaranty made and the Security Interest granted hereby shall terminate and
        all rights to the Collateral shall revert to Grantors or any other Person entitled thereto.  At such time, upon Borrowers’ request, Agent will authorize the
        filing of appropriate termination statements to terminate such Security Interest.  No transfer or renewal, extension, assignment, or termination of this Agreement or of the Credit
        Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any other instrument or document executed and delivered by any Grantor to Agent nor any additional Floorplan Loan, Revolving

        Loan, Swingline Loan or other loans made by any Lender to any Borrower, nor the taking of further security, nor the retaking or re-delivery of the Collateral to Grantors,

        or any of them, by Agent, nor any other act of the Secured Parties, or any of them, shall release any Grantor from any obligation, except a release or discharge executed in writing by Agent

        in accordance with the provisions of the Credit Agreement.  Agent shall not by any act, delay, omission or otherwise, be deemed to have waived any of its rights or remedies hereunder, unless such waiver
        is in writing and signed by Agent and then only to the extent therein set forth.  A waiver by Agent of any right or remedy on any occasion shall not be construed as a bar to the exercise of any such
        right or remedy which Agent would otherwise have had on any other occasion.

       

      
        24

        
          

      

      (b)          If any Secured Party repays, refunds, restores, or returns in whole or in part, any payment or property (including any proceeds of Collateral) previously paid or transferred to such Secured Party in full or partial satisfaction of any Secured Obligation or on account of any other obligation of any Credit Party
        or guarantor under any Loan Document, any Bank Product Agreement, or any Secured Rate Contract because the payment, transfer, or the incurrence of the obligation so satisfied is asserted or declared to be void, voidable, or otherwise recoverable
        under any law relating to creditors’ rights, including provisions of the Bankruptcy Code relating to fraudulent transfers, preferences, or other voidable or recoverable obligations or transfers (each, a “Voidable Transfer”), or because such Secured Party elects to do so on the reasonable advice of its counsel in connection with a claim that the payment, transfer, or incurrence is or may be a Voidable Transfer, then, as to any such Voidable Transfer, or the amount thereof that such Secured Party elects to repay, restore, or return (including pursuant to a settlement of any claim in respect
        thereof), and as to all reasonable costs, expenses, and attorneys’ fees of such Secured Party related thereto, (i) the liability of the Credit Parties or guarantors with respect to the amount or property paid, refunded, restored, or returned will automatically and immediately be revived, reinstated, and restored and will exist, and (ii) Agent’s Liens securing such liability shall be effective, revived, and remain in
        full force and effect, in each case, as fully as if such Voidable Transfer had never been made.  If, prior to any of the foregoing, (A) Agent’s Liens shall have been released or terminated, or (B) any provision of this Agreement shall have been terminated or cancelled, Agent’s Liens, or such provision of this Agreement, shall be reinstated in full force and effect and
        such prior release, termination, cancellation or surrender shall not diminish, release, discharge, impair or otherwise affect the obligation of any Credit Party or any guarantor in respect of such liability or any Collateral
        securing such liability.

       

      24.       Survival.  All representations and warranties made by the Grantors

        in this Agreement and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other
        parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making of any Loans and Issuance of any Letters of Credit, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf
        and notwithstanding that Agent, or Secured Party may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or Event of Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended under the
        Credit Agreement, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any loan or any fee or any other amount payable under the Credit Agreement is
        outstand-ing and unpaid or any Letter of Credit is outstanding and so long as the Lenders’ commitments under the Credit Agreement have not expired or terminated.

       

      25.          Governing Law and Jurisdiction.

       

      (a)          Governing Law.  The laws of the State of New York shall govern all matters arising out of, in connection with or relating to this Agreement, including, without limitation, its validity,
        interpretation, construction, performance and enforcement (including, without limitation, any claims sounding in contract or tort law arising out of the subject matter hereof and any determinations with respect to post-judgment interest).

       

      (b)          Submission to Jurisdiction.  Any legal action or proceeding with respect to this Agreement shall be brought exclusively in the courts of the State of New York located

        in the City of New York, Borough of Manhattan, or of the United States of America for the Southern District of New York and, by execution and delivery of this
        Agreement, each Grantor accepts for itself and in respect of its property, generally and unconditionally, the jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts.  Each Grantor hereby irrevocably waives any objection, including any objection to the laying of
        venue or based on the grounds of forum non conveniens, that it may now or hereafter have to the bringing of any such action or proceeding in such jurisdictions.

       

      
        25

        
          

      

      (c)          Service of Process.  Each Grantor hereby irrevocably waives personal service of any and all legal process, summons, notices and other documents and other service of process of any kind and consents
        to such service in any suit, action or proceeding brought in the United States of America with respect to or otherwise arising out of or in connection with this Agreement by any means permitted by applicable Requirements of Law, including by the
        mailing thereof (by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid) to the address of Grantors specified herein (and shall be effective when such mailing shall be effective, as provided therein).  Each Grantor agrees that a final judgment in any
        such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law.

       

      (d)          Non-Exclusive Jurisdiction.  Nothing contained in this Section 25 shall affect the right of Agent to serve process in any other manner permitted by applicable Requirements of Law or commence
        legal proceedings or otherwise proceed against any Grantor in any other jurisdiction.

       

      26.         Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH GRANTOR AND AGENT, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WAIVE ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, SUIT, OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF, IN CONNECTION WITH OR RELATING TO,
        THIS AGREEMENT AND/OR ANY AMENDMENTS AND ADDENDA HERETO AND ANY OTHER TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY.  THIS WAIVER APPLIES TO ANY ACTION, SUIT OR PROCEEDING WHETHER SOUNDING IN TORT, CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE.

       

      27.          New Subsidiaries.  Pursuant to Section 5.14 of the Credit Agreement, certain Subsidiaries (whether by acquisition or creation) of
        any Grantor are required to enter into this Agreement by executing and delivering in favor of Agent a Joinder to this Agreement in
        substantially the form of Annex 1.  Upon the execution and delivery of Annex 1 by any such new Subsidiary, such Subsidiary shall become a Guarantor and/or Grantor hereunder with the same
        force and effect as if originally named as a Guarantor and/or Grantor herein.  The execution and delivery of any instrument adding an additional Guarantor or Grantor as a party to this Agreement shall not require the consent of any Guarantor or Grantor hereunder.  The rights and obligations of each Guarantor and Grantor

        hereunder shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the addition of any new Guarantor or Grantor hereunder.

       

      28.         Agent.  Each reference herein to any right granted to, benefit conferred upon or power exercisable by the “Agent”

        shall be a reference to Agent, for the benefit of each Secured Party.

       

      29.          Miscellaneous.

       

      (a)          This Agreement is a Loan Document.  This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different
        parties on separate counterparts, each of which, when executed and delivered, shall be deemed to be an original, and all of which, when taken together, shall constitute but one and the same Agreement.  Delivery

        of an executed counterpart of this Agreement by telefacsimile or other electronic method of transmission shall be equally as effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart of this Agreement. 
        Any party delivering an executed counterpart of this Agreement by telefacsimile or other electronic method of transmission also shall deliver an original executed counterpart of this Agreement

        but the failure to deliver an original executed counterpart shall not affect the validity, enforceability, and binding effect of this Agreement.  The foregoing shall apply to each other Loan Document mutatis mutandis.

       

      (b)        Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or
        unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof in that jurisdiction or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.  Each provision of this Agreement

        shall be severable from every other provision of this Agreement for the purpose of determining the legal enforceability of any specific provision.

       

      (c)         Headings and numbers have been set forth herein for convenience only.  Unless the contrary is compelled by the context, everything contained in each Section
        applies equally to this entire Agreement.

       

      (d)        Neither this Agreement nor any uncertainty or ambiguity herein shall be construed against any Secured Party, or any Grantor,

        whether under any rule of construction or otherwise.  This Agreement has been reviewed by all parties and shall be construed and interpreted according to the ordinary meaning of the words used so as to accomplish fairly the
        purposes and intentions of all parties hereto.
