Recitals

 

Sovereign Bank, N.A.,
as lender (the “Existing Lender”) has made available to the Borrower a revolving credit and term loan facility
pursuant to the Existing Credit Agreement (defined below).

 

Certain “Obligations”
(as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement) of the Borrower to the Existing Lender under the Existing Credit Agreement are evidenced
by promissory notes issued under the Existing Credit Agreement (collectively, the “Prior Notes”).

 

The Borrower, the
Lenders and the Administrative Agent have agreed to increase the amounts available under, and amend and restate the Existing Credit
Agreement as herein reflected, and by the execution and delivery of this Agreement do so increase the amounts available under,
and amend and restate the Existing Credit Agreement, and in connection therewith the Borrower has agreed to issue amended and restated
notes to the Lenders in replacement of the Prior Notes and to reaffirm its obligations under the credit support documentation or
execute new or restated credit support documentation.

 

Increase, Amendment
and Restatement

 

The Borrower, the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby agree that upon the effectiveness of this Agreement, the amounts available under and
the terms and provisions of the Existing Credit Agreement shall be and hereby are increased, amended and restated in their entirety

provided herein, shall be superseded by this Agreement.

 

Notwithstanding the
increase in availability, and the amendment and restatement of the Existing Credit Agreement by this Agreement, the Borrower shall
continue to be, or now be, as the case may be, liable to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders with respect to agreements on
the part of the Borrower under the Existing Credit Agreement to indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent and the Lenders
from and against all claims, demands, liabilities, damages, losses, costs, charges and expenses to which the Administrative Agent
and the Lenders may be subject arising in connection with the Existing Credit Agreement. This Agreement is given as a substitution

ARTICLE II:AMOUNT
AND TERMS OF COMMITMENTS AND TERM LOANS

 

2.1Revolving
Credit Commitments.

 

(a)Subject
to the terms and conditions hereof, each Revolving Lender severally agrees to make revolving credit loans (each, a “Revolving
Credit Loan”) in U.S. Dollars to the Borrower from time to time during the Revolving Credit Commitment Period so long
as after giving effect thereto (i) the Available Revolving Credit Commitment of each Lender with a Revolving Credit Commitment
is greater than or equal to zero and (ii) the Aggregate Revolving Credit Outstanding of all Lenders does not exceed the Aggregate
Revolving Credit Commitments. During the Revolving Credit Commitment Period the Borrower may use the Revolving Credit Commitments
by borrowing, prepaying the Revolving Credit Loans in whole or in part, and reborrowing, all in accordance with the terms and conditions
hereof.

 

(b)The Revolving
Credit Loans may from time to time be (i) Eurodollar Loans, (ii) Base Rate Loans or (iii) a combination thereof, as determined
by the Borrower and notified to the Administrative Agent in accordance with Sections 2.2 and 3.2, provided that no Revolving
Credit Loan shall be made as a Eurodollar Loan after the day that is one month prior to the Revolving Credit Termination Date.

 

(c)Subject
to the terms and conditions hereof, the Aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments may be reduced pursuant to Section 2.4, or increased
pursuant to Section 2.8.

 

    	23

    	 

    
 

2.2Procedure
for Revolving Credit Borrowing. The Borrower may borrow under the Revolving Credit Commitments during the Revolving Credit
Commitment Period on any Business Day, provided that the Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent irrevocable notice (which
notice must be received by the Administrative Agent prior to 2:00 P.M. (New York City time) at least (a) three Business Days prior
to the requested Borrowing Date, if all or any part of the requested Revolving Credit Loans are to be initially Eurodollar Loans,
or (b) one (1) Business Day prior to the requested Borrowing Date, otherwise), specifying in each case (i) the amount to be borrowed,
(ii) the requested Borrowing Date, (iii) whether the borrowing is to be of Eurodollar Loans, Base Rate Loans or a combination thereof
and (iv) if the borrowing is to be entirely or partly of Eurodollar Loans, the amount of such Type of Loan and the length of the
initial Interest Periods therefor. Each borrowing under the Revolving Credit Commitments shall be in an amount equal to (A) in
the case of Base Rate Loans, $100,000.00 or a whole multiple of $10,000.00 in excess thereof and (B) in the case of Eurodollar
Loans, $100,000.00 or a whole multiple of $10,000.00 in excess thereof. Upon receipt of any such notice from the Borrower, the
Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Revolving Lender thereof not later than 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the date
the Administrative Agent receives such notice. Not later than 12:00 Noon, New York City time, on each requested Borrowing Date
each Revolving Lender shall make an amount equal to its Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of the principal amount of the Revolving
Credit Loans requested to be made on such Borrowing Date available to the Administrative Agent at its office specified in Section
10.2 in U.S. Dollars and in immediately available funds. The Administrative Agent shall on such date credit the account of the
Borrower on the books of such office with the aggregate of the amounts made available to the Administrative Agent by the Lenders
and in like funds as received by the Administrative Agent.

 

2.3Repayment
of Revolving Credit Loans. The Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account
of each Revolving Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Credit Loan of such Lender (whether made before or
after the termination or expiration of the Revolving Credit Commitments) on the Revolving Credit Termination Date and on such other
dates and in such other amounts as may be required from time to time pursuant to this Agreement, including, without limitation
Section (g) of Section 3.1. The Borrower hereby further agrees to pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of the Revolving
Credit Loans from time to time outstanding until payment thereof in full at the rates per annum, and on the dates, set forth in
Section 3.1.

 

2.4Termination
and Reduction of Revolving Credit Commitments. The Borrower shall have the right, upon not less than three (3) Business Days’
notice to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly notify each Lender thereof), to terminate the Aggregate Revolving Credit
Commitments or, from time to time, to reduce the amount of the Aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments; provided that no
such termination or reduction shall be permitted if, after giving effect thereto and to any prepayments of the Revolving Credit
Loans made on the effective date thereof, the Available Revolving Credit Commitment of any Lender would not be greater than or
equal to zero. Any such permitted reduction shall be in an amount equal to $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess
thereof and shall reduce permanently the Aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments then in effect.

 

    	24

    	 

    
 

2.5Term
Commitment. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, pursuant to Section 2.6 below, each Term Lender severally (but not
jointly) agrees to make, refinance and/or restate one or more term loans (each, a “Term Loan”) to the Borrower on the
Closing Date in an amount not to exceed in the aggregate the amount of the Term Commitment of such Term Lender. On the Closing
Date, Borrower shall (i) refinance the outstanding principal balance of the first term loan under the Existing Credit Agreement
with a Revolving Credit Loan, and (ii) restate and refinance the second term loan under the Existing Credit Agreement (the “Prior
Term Loan”) as set forth in Section 2.6 below, and (iii) on the Closing Date, the Existing Lender shall sell to the Term
Loan Lenders in proportion to their Term Loan Percentages as much of its interest in such Prior Term Loan as necessary to give
effect to the overall Term Loan Percentages. On and after the Closing Date, the Existing Lender shall retain its 100% ownership
interest in and shall constitute the Swap Provider for any related interest rate swap transaction pursuant to the Master Agreement
with respect to the Prior Term Loan as restated and refinanced by the First Term Loan.

 

2.6Term
Loan Borrowing. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, upon receipt by the Administrative Agent of the Proceeds of the
First Term Loan, each Term Lender severally agrees to make available to the Borrower (through the Administrative Agent) on the
Closing Date its Term Loan Percentage of a term loan in the aggregate principal amount of $3,900,000 (the “First Term Loan”).
The First Term Loan shall be evidenced by a first term note (the “First Term Note”) of the Borrower payable to each
Term Lender. Each First Term Note shall be dated the Closing Date and shall mature on the applicable Term Loan Maturity Date at
which time the entire outstanding principal balance and all interest thereon shall be due and payable. Each First Term Loan shall
bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Eurodollar Rate for a one month Interest Period, the entire outstanding
principal balance of which shall continue to be subject to an interest rate swap transaction with the Swap Provider for the remainder
of the term pursuant to the Master Agreement. Interest shall be payable in arrears on the first day of each month commencing on
January 1, 2013 and on the first day of each month thereafter in accordance with Section 3.1 hereof. Prepayments shall be subject
to Section 3.4 hereof. Each First Term Note shall be entitled to the benefits and subject to the provisions of this Agreement.

 

2.7 Repayment
of Term Loans. The principal balance of the First Term Loan shall be payable to the Administrative Agent for the account of
each Term Lender (in accordance with each Term Lender’s respective Term Loan Percentage) in consecutive monthly installments
of principal, the first fifty-one (51) of which shall be in an amount equal to Seventy-Five Thousand and 00/100 ($75,000.00) Dollars
each, commencing on January 1, 2013 with each succeeding installment being due on the first day of each month thereafter until
March 1, 2017 with a final payment due on the applicable Term Loan Maturity Date in an amount equal to the then outstanding
principal balance of the First Term Loan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon Borrower’s receipt of each Contract Termination
Payment (if any), Borrower shall then (at Borrower’s option) either (1) prepay the First Term Loan on the last day of the
current one month LIBOR Rate Interest Period in the principal amount equal to the Designated Amount plus all accrued and unpaid
interest through the date of prepayment, or (2) deposit into a bank account held by and pledged (as additional collateral for the
Loans and the related interest rate swap obligations) to the Agent on behalf of the Term Lenders, on terms and documentation satisfactory
to the Agent and its counsel, an amount equal to the Designated Amount. Each Term Lender shall receive its Term Loan Percentage
of each installment of principal paid under the First Term Loan.

 

    	25

    	 

    
 

2.8 Increase
in Revolving Credit Commitments

 

(a)Provided there exists
no Default, and no Default would result from any borrowing as of the funding date thereof, upon sixty (60) days written notice
to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly notify the Revolving Lenders), the Borrower may from time to time request an
increase in the Aggregate Revolving Credit Commitment by an additional amount (for all such requests) not exceeding $15,000,000.00
in the aggregate; provided that (i) any such request for an increase shall be in a minimum amount of $5,000,000 and integral multiples
of $1,000,000.00 in excess thereof, (ii) the Borrower may make a maximum of three (3) such requests and (iii) after giving effect
to any increase under this Section, the Aggregate Revolving Credit Commitment shall not exceed the Aggregate Revolving Credit Maximum
Amount. At the time of sending such notice, the Borrower (in consultation with the Administrative Agent) shall specify the time
period within which each Revolving Lender is requested to respond (which shall in no event be less than twenty (20) Business Days
from the date of delivery of such notice to the Revolving Lenders).

 

(b)Each Revolving Lender
shall notify the Administrative Agent within such time period whether or not it agrees to increase its Revolving Credit Commitment
and, if so, whether by an amount equal to, greater than, or less than its Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of such requested
increase. Any Revolving Lender not responding within such time period shall be deemed to have declined to increase its Revolving
Credit Commitment.

 

(c) The Administrative Agent
shall notify the Borrower and each Revolving Lender of the Revolving Lenders’ responses to each request made hereunder. To
achieve the full amount of a requested increase, and subject to the approval of the Administrative Agent, the Borrower may also
invite additional Eligible Assignees, as provided in Section 10.6 hereof, reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent to
become Revolving Lenders pursuant to a joinder agreement (“New Revolving Lenders”) in form and substance satisfactory
to the Administrative Agent and its counsel.

 

(d)If the Aggregate Revolving
Credit Commitment is increased in accordance with this Section, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall determine the effective
date (the “Revolving Increase Effective Date”) and the final allocation of such increase. The Administrative
Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Revolving Lenders and the New Revolving Lenders, if any, of the final allocation
of such increase and the Revolving Increase Effective Date.

 

(e)As a condition precedent
to such increase, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate of each Loan Party dated as of the Revolving
Increase Effective Date (in sufficient copies for each Lender) signed by a Responsible Officer of such Loan Party (i) certifying
and attaching the resolutions adopted by such Loan Party approving or consenting to such increase, and (ii) in the case of
the Borrower, certifying that, before and after giving effect to such increase, (A) the representations and warranties contained
in Section 4 (inclusive) and the other Loan Documents are true and correct, on and as of the Revolving Increase Effective Date,
(B) no Default exists or would exist after any such borrowing, and (C) a pro forma calculation as of the latest fiscal quarter
for which internal financial statements are available indicating compliance (including calculations) with the financial covenants
set forth in Section 7.1. The Borrower shall prepay any Revolving Credit Loans outstanding on the Revolving Increase Effective
Date (and pay any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 3.11) to the extent necessary to keep the outstanding Revolving
Credit Loans ratable with any revised Applicable Revolving Percentages arising from any nonratable increase in the Revolving Credit
Commitments under this Section.

 

    	26

    	 

    
 

(f)This Section 2.8 shall
supersede any provisions in 10.1 to the contrary.

 

2.9Defaulting
Lenders.

 

(a)Adjustments.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such
time as that Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable Law:

 

 

(i)Waivers
and Amendments. Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect
to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in the definition of “Required Lenders” and Section 10.1.

 

(ii)Defaulting
Lender Waterfall. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account
of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article VIII or otherwise) or received by the
Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 10.7 shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined
by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative
Agent hereunder; second, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding
of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as
determined by the Administrative Agent; third, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to be held
in a deposit account and released pro rata in order to satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations
with respect to Loans under this Agreement and; fourth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders, as a result
of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such
Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; fifth, so long as no Default or Event of Default
exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained
by the Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this
Agreement; and sixth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise as may be required under the Loan Documents in connection
with any Lien conferred thereunder or directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (1) such payment is a payment
of the principal amount of any Loans in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and
(2) such Loans were made when the conditions set forth in Section 5 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely
to pay the Loans of all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans owed to such
Defaulting Lender until such time as all Loans are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the Commitments hereunder. Any
payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by
a Defaulting Lender pursuant to this Section 2.9(a)(ii) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each
Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

 

    	27

    	 

    
 

(iii)Certain
Fees: No Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any fee payable under Section 3.5(a) for any period during which that
Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Borrower shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required
to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender).

 

(b)Defaulting
Lender Cure. If the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, agrees in writing that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, the
Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject
to any conditions set forth therein, that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Loans
of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans be
held on a pro rata basis by the Lenders in accordance with their respective Revolving Credit Commitment and Term Loan Percentages,
whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with
respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided,
further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting
Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having
been a Defaulting Lender.

 

    	28

    	 

    
 

ARTICLE III:GENERAL
PROVISIONS

 

3.1Interest
Rates and Payment Dates.

 

(a)Each
Eurodollar Loan shall bear interest for each day during each Interest Period with respect thereto at a rate per annum
equal to the applicable Eurodollar Rate determined for such Interest Period.

 

(b)Each Base
Rate Loan shall bear interest for each day on which it is outstanding at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate
for such day.

 

(c)If all
or a portion of (i) the principal amount of any Loan, (ii) any interest payable thereon or (iii) any fee or other amount payable
hereunder shall not be paid when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), such amount shall bear interest
for each day after the due date until such amount is paid in full at a rate per annum equal to (x) in the case of
principal, the rate that would otherwise be applicable thereto pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section plus 3% per
annum or (y) in the case of any such overdue interest, fee or other amount, the rate described in paragraph (b) of this
Section plus 3% per annum. If any Event of Default described in Sections 8(c) (with respect to Section 7.1 only),
(f), (h) or (j) shall occur and be continuing, and the Required Lenders shall give notice to the Borrower that this sentence shall
apply, then, until such Event of Default shall be cured or waived or such notice shall be withdrawn, the outstanding principal
amount of all Loans shall bear interest at 3% per annum above the rate that would otherwise be applicable thereto
pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.1 (other than the first sentence of this paragraph (c)).

 

(d)Interest
on Revolving Credit Loans shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date, provided that interest accruing pursuant
to paragraph (c) of this Section 3.1 shall be payable from time to time on demand. Interest on Term Loans shall be payable monthly
in arrears pursuant to Section 2.6 hereof.

 

(e)On
each date when the payment of any principal, interest or fees are due hereunder or under any Note, Borrower agrees to maintain
on deposit in an ordinary checking account maintained by Borrower with the Administrative Agent (as such account shall be designated
by Borrower in a written notice to the Administrative Agent from time to time, the “Designated Account”) an
amount sufficient to pay such principal, interest or fees in full on such date. Borrower hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent
(i) to deduct automatically all principal, interest or fees when due hereunder or under any Note from the Designated Account, and
(ii) if and to the extent any payment of principal, interest or fees under this Agreement or any Note is not made when due to deduct
any such amount from any or all of the accounts of Borrower maintained at the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent agrees
to provide written notice to Borrower of any automatic deduction made pursuant to this Section 3.1(e) showing in reasonable detail
the amounts of such deduction.

 

(f)All
funds deposited in the Designated Account shall be held under the sole dominion and control of the Collateral Agent for the account
of and subject to the security interest of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Lenders. In addition to the rights of the
Collateral Agent in the funds on deposit in the Designated Account as proceeds of the Collateral, the Borrower hereby pledges,
assigns and grants to the Collateral Agent a security interest in all funds, whether or not proceeds of the Collateral, now or
hereafter on deposit in the Designated Account and all of the Borrower's present and future rights in and to the Designated Account
and the funds on deposit therein.

 

    	29

    	 

    
 

(g)The
Administrative Agent has the right, and the Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent, to withdraw funds
from and/or draw upon the Designated Account to pay amounts due and owing to the Lenders under this Agreement, including, without
limitation, interest on and principal of Loans thereunder, and the fees set forth in Section 3.5 payable thereunder. The Borrower
hereby agrees that all amounts deposited into the Designated Account or on deposit in the Designated Account shall, on the Business
Day that Obligations are due after receipt thereof, be withdrawn by the Administrative Agent and either (i) if and solely to the
extent any amount is outstanding on such day in respect of Obligations under any of the Loan Documents, such amounts on deposit
in the Designated Account shall be applied by the Agent to satisfy such outstanding Obligations (and to the extent any such amounts
on deposit in the Designated Account shall not be required to satisfy Obligations, such amounts shall be treated as provided for
below) or (ii) if there are no Obligations at that time outstanding (and provided no Default or Event of Default has occurred and
is continuing), upon Borrower’s written request to Administrative Agent, such amounts on deposit in the Designated Account
shall be transferred by the Agent to the Borrower's main operating account with the Administrative Agent (the “Operating
Account”). The Borrower shall on the next succeeding Business Day advise the Administrative Agent of the funds deposited
to the Designated Account as cash for which the Administrative Agent did not afford the Borrower credit against the Obligations
and the Administrative Agent shall make a retroactive adjustment for same. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of a
Default or an Event of Default, no amounts on deposit in the Designated Account shall be transferred by the Collateral Agent, and
any amounts on deposit therein may be used by the Collateral Agent, at the Collateral Agent's discretion, to satisfy the Obligations
as provided for above, or may be held by the Collateral Agent as cash collateral for the Obligations, as provided for above and
in the Security Agreement.

 

(h) Upon
the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, upon written direction from the Required Lenders, the Designated
Account shall be converted into a lockbox account under the sole dominion and control of the Collateral Agent. In such event, the
Borrower hereby agrees, on forms approved by the Collateral Agent, if requested by Collateral Agent at the direction of the Required
Lenders, to instruct all Account Debtors to make all payments in respect of Accounts directly to the lockbox account. This lockbox
account shall be non-interest bearing and shall be subject to debit or withdrawal solely by the Collateral Agent. The balance from
time to time in this lockbox account shall be used to reduce the Obligations, at the Administrative Agent’s sole discretion,
and such balance shall be held as security for such Obligations as provided in Section 3.1(g) hereof and in the Security Agreement.

 

(i)The
Designated Account and the funds on deposit therein shall be subject to the Collateral Agent's right of setoff, Collateral Agent's
lien and other rights for the benefit of the Lenders as the Collateral Agent has in and to deposit accounts maintained therein.
Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to be a waiver of any rights or remedies the Collateral Agent may have against the Borrower
or any funds of the Borrower on deposit at the Collateral Agent. No failure of the Collateral Agent to require, and no delay by
the Collateral Agent in requiring, the Borrower to comply with any requirement of this Agreement shall constitute a waiver of compliance
with any requirement of this Agreement. No failure of the Collateral Agent to exercise, and no delay by the Bank in exercising,
any right or any remedy, whether under this Agreement, at law or otherwise shall constitute a waiver of any such right or remedy.
Any waiver by the Collateral Agent of compliance with a requirement of this Agreement, or of any right or any remedy, shall be
effective only if in a writing signed by the Collateral Agent, and shall be limited to the specific instance for which such waiver
was granted and shall not constitute a waiver of such compliance, right or remedy in the future or of compliance with any other
requirement, or of any other right or remedy, whether under this Agreement or otherwise.

 

    	30

    	 

    
 

(j)If,
as a result of any restatement of or other adjustment to the financial statements of Borrower or for any other reason, Borrower
or the Lenders determine that (i) the Financial Covenant used in the definition “Applicable Margin” as calculated
by Borrower as of any applicable date was inaccurate and (ii) a proper calculation of such Financial Covenant would have resulted
in higher pricing for such period, Borrower shall immediately and retroactively be obligated to pay to Agent for the account of
the applicable Lenders, promptly on demand by Agent (or, after the occurrence of an actual or deemed entry of an order for relief
with respect to Borrower under the Bankruptcy Code of the United States, automatically and without further action by Agent or any
Lender), an amount equal to the excess of the amount of interest and fees that should have been paid for such period over the amount
of interest and fees actually paid for such period. This paragraph shall not limit the rights of Agent or any Lender, as the case
may be, under Section 8 (inclusive) hereunder or otherwise. Borrower’s obligations under this paragraph shall survive the
termination of the Commitments and the repayment of the Aggregate Loans and all other Obligations hereunder.

 

3.2 Conversion
and Continuation Options. With respect to Revolving Credit Loans:

 

(a)The Borrower
may elect from time to time to convert outstanding Eurodollar Loans (in whole or in part) to Base Rate Loans by giving the Administrative
Agent at least two (2) Business Days’ prior irrevocable notice of such election, provided that any such conversion
of Eurodollar Loans may only be made on the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto. The Borrower may elect from time
to time to convert outstanding Base Rate Loans (in whole or in part) to Eurodollar Loans by giving the Administrative Agent prior
irrevocable notice of such election no later than 11:00 A.M., New York City time, at least three Business Days’ prior to
the proposed conversion date. Any such notice of conversion to Eurodollar Loans shall specify the length of the initial Interest
Period or Interest Periods therefor. Upon receipt of any such notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each relevant
Lender thereof. All or any part of outstanding Eurodollar Loans and Base Rate Loans may be converted as provided herein, provided
that (i) no Base Rate Loan may be converted into a Eurodollar Loan when any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing
and the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders have determined in its or their sole discretion that such conversion is not
appropriate, (ii) any such conversion may only be made if, after giving effect thereto, Section 3.3 shall not have been violated,
and (iii) no Base Rate Loan may be converted into a Eurodollar Loan after the date that is one month prior to the Revolving Credit
Termination Date or the Term Loan Maturity Date, as applicable.

 

    	31

    	 

    
 

(b)Any
Eurodollar Loans may be continued as such upon the expiration of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto by the Borrower
giving notice to the Administrative Agent of the length of the next Interest Period to be applicable to such Loans determined in
accordance with the applicable provisions of the term “Interest Period” set forth in Section 1.1, provided that
no Eurodollar Loan may be continued as such (i) when any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative
Agent or the Required Lenders have determined in its or their sole discretion that such continuation is not appropriate, (ii) if,
after giving effect thereto, Section 3.3 would be contravened or (iii) after the date that is one month prior to the Revolving
Credit Termination Date or the Term Loan Maturity Date, as applicable; and provided, further, that if the Borrower
shall fail to give such notice or if such continuation is not permitted pursuant to the preceding proviso, such Eurodollar Loans
shall automatically be converted to Base Rate Loans on the last day of such then expiring Interest Period. Upon receipt of any
notice pursuant to this Section 3.2(b), the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender thereof.

 

3.3Minimum
Amounts of Tranches. All borrowings, conversions and continuations of Loans hereunder and all selections of Interest Periods
hereunder shall be in such amounts and be made pursuant to such elections so that, after giving effect thereto, (a) for the Revolving
Credit Loans (i) the aggregate principal amount of the Eurodollar Loans comprising each Tranche shall be equal to $1,000,000 or
an integral multiple thereof and (ii) there shall not be more than three (3) Tranches at any one time outstanding; and (b) for
the Term Loans (i) the aggregate principal amount of the Eurodollar Loans comprising the Term Loans shall be equal to the remaining
principal balance of each Term Loan and (ii) there shall not be more than one (1) Tranche for each Term Loan at any one time outstanding.

 

 3.4 Optional and Mandatory Prepayments.

 

(a)The
Borrower may at any time and from time to time prepay the Loans, in whole or in part, upon at least three (3) Business Days’
irrevocable notice to the Administrative Agent (in the case of Eurodollar Loans) and at least one (1) Business Day’s irrevocable
notice to the Administrative Agent (in the case of Base Rate Loans), specifying the date and amount of prepayment and whether the
prepayment is of Eurodollar Loans, Base Rate Loans or a combination thereof, and, in each case if a combination thereof, the amount
allocable to each. Upon the receipt of any such notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender thereof. If any
such notice is given, the amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein. Partial prepayments
of the Loans shall be in an aggregate principal amount of $50,000 or an integral multiple thereof.

 

(b)Amounts
to be applied in connection with prepayments made pursuant to this Section shall be applied to the prepayment of the Term Loans
in accordance with Section 3.8(a)(ii) and shall be made, first, to Base Rate Loans and, second, to Eurodollar Loans.

 

(c)If,
at any time during the Revolving Credit Commitment Period, for any reason the Aggregate Revolving Credit Outstanding of all the
Revolving Lenders exceeds the Aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments then in effect, or the Aggregate Revolving Credit Outstanding
of any Lender exceeds the Revolving Credit Commitment of such Lender then in effect, the Borrower shall, without notice or demand,
immediately prepay the Revolving Credit Loans, in an aggregate amount at least sufficient to eliminate any such excess.

 

    	32

    	 

    
 

(d)On
each date on which the Revolving Credit Loans exceed any borrowing limitations set forth herein, the Borrower shall repay or prepay
such principal amount of the outstanding Revolving Credit Loans, if any (together with interest accrued thereon and any amount
due under this Section 3.4), as may be necessary so that after such payment the Revolving Credit Loans do not exceed such borrowing
limitations. Each such payment or prepayment shall be applied ratably to the Revolving Credit Loans of the Lenders outstanding
on the date of payment or prepayment, first, to Base Rate Loans, and, next, to Eurodollar Loans.

 

(e)Contemporaneously
upon receipt of Net Cash Proceeds in excess of $500,000, unless a Default or Event of Default then exists (in which event, Section
3.8 shall be controlling), the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to: (i) the sum of (x) seventy-five
percent (75%) of all Net Cash Proceeds in the aggregate
in any Fiscal Year from the disposition of assets whether or not such
assets are Collateral hereunder, other than Inventory Collateral and Sold Receivables, plus (y) seventy-five
percent (75%) of the Net Cash Proceeds in the aggregate in any
Fiscal Year from the disposition of Equipment Collateral, and Properties
to the extent such Net Cash Proceeds are not used substantially
simultaneously to replace such disposed Equipment Collateral and
disposed Properties with new Equipment Collateral, or new Properties,
as the case may be, and (ii) seventy-five percent (75%) of the Net Cash Proceeds from the incurrence of Indebtedness. Such
payment shall be accompanied by a detailed calculation showing all deductions from gross proceeds in order to arrive at Net Cash
Proceeds, as well as amounts used or reserved for the purchase of replacement Equipment Collateral, if applicable. All such payments
from Net Cash Proceeds shall be applied, first, (A) pro rata, to either (1) prepay the Term Loans then outstanding, in prepayment
of the principal installments thereof in inverse order of maturity, or (2) to deposit such amount into a bank account held by and
pledged (as additional collateral for the Loans and any related interest rate swap obligations) to the Agent on behalf of the Term
Lenders on terms and documentation satisfactory to Agent and its counsel; and (B) next, as to any remainder, to the Revolving Credit
Loans.

 

(f)Each
prepayment of Loans pursuant to this Section 3.4 shall be accompanied by accrued and unpaid interest on the amount prepaid to the
date of prepayment and any amounts payable under Section 3.11 or 3.15 in connection with such prepayment.

 

(g)Each
prepayment of any Term Loan shall be subject to any breakage costs for prepayments pursuant to the Master Agreement.

 

(h)Upon
Borrower’s receipt of each Contract Termination Payment (if any), Borrower shall comply with the prepayment or cash security
provisions of Section 2.7.

 

(i)If the Borrower
decides to proceed with a public offering of its stock and (1) raises $10,000,000 or more, and (2) after giving effect to the receipt
of the net proceeds of such public offering Borrower’s Leverage Ratio is 2.0 or more, Borrower shall then promptly utilize
an amount equal to 25% of Borrower’s Net Cash Proceeds from such offering to pay down the outstanding Revolving Credit Loans.

 

    	33

    	 

    
 

3.5Commitment
Fees; Other Fees.

 

(a)The Borrower
shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Lender in accordance with its Revolving Credit Commitment
Percentage, a commitment fee equal to the Commitment Fee set forth in the Applicable Percentage definition times the actual daily
amount by which the Aggregate Revolving Credit Commitment exceeds the Aggregate Revolving Credit Outstanding. The commitment fee
shall accrue at all times during the relevant period that the Revolving Credit Commitments are outstanding including at any time
during which one or more of the conditions in Section 5 (inclusive) is not met, and shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears
on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December, commencing with the first such date to occur after the Closing
Date and on the last day of the availability period.

 

(b)The Borrower
shall pay to the Agent for the pro rata account of each Lender on the Closing Date the up front fees set forth in the Agent Fee
Letter and the fee letter dated the date hereof with each Lender (other than the Agent). Such fees shall be fully earned when paid
and shall be nonrefundable for any reason whatsoever.

 

(c)Borrower
shall pay to Agent for Agent’s own account, fees in the amounts and at the times specified in the letter agreement, dated
the date hereof (the “Agent Fee Letter”), between Borrower and Agent. Such fees shall be fully earned when paid
and shall be nonrefundable for any reason whatsoever.

 

3.6 Computation
of Interest and Fees.

 

(a)Interest
and fees shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual days elapsed (including the first day but excluding
the last day). The Administrative Agent shall as soon as practicable notify the Borrower and the relevant Lenders of each determination
of a Eurodollar Rate. Any change in the interest rate on a Loan resulting from a change in the Base Rate shall become effective
as of the opening of business on the day on which such change becomes effective. The Administrative Agent shall as soon as practicable
notify the Borrower and the relevant Lenders of the effective date and the amount of each such change in the Base Rate.

 

(b)Each
determination of an interest rate by the Administrative Agent pursuant to any provision of this Agreement shall be conclusive and
binding on the Borrower and the Lenders in the absence of manifest error. The Administrative Agent shall, at the request of the
Borrower deliver to the Borrower a statement showing in reasonable detail the calculations used by the Administrative Agent in
determining any interest rate pursuant to Section 3.1.

 

    	34

    	 

    
 

3.7Inability
to Determine Interest Rate. If prior to the first day of any Interest Period:

 

(a)the Administrative
Agent shall have determined (which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon the Borrower) that, by reason of circumstances
affecting the relevant market, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Eurodollar Rate for such Interest
Period, or

 

(b)the Administrative
Agent has received notice from the Required Lenders that the Eurodollar Rate determined or to be determined for such Interest Period
will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining their Eurodollar Loans during such Interest
Period, the Administrative Agent shall give telecopy or telephonic notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders as soon as practicable
thereafter. If such notice is given (i) any Eurodollar Loans requested to be made on the first day of such Interest Period shall
be made as Base Rate Loans in U.S. Dollars, (ii) any Loans that were to have been converted on the first day of such Interest Period
to or continued as Eurodollar Loans shall be converted to or continued as Base Rate Loans and (iii) any outstanding Eurodollar
Loans shall be converted on the last day of such Interest Period to Base Rate Loans. Until such notice has been withdrawn by the
Administrative Agent, no further Eurodollar Loans shall be made or continued as such, nor shall the Borrower have the right to
convert Base Rate Loans to Eurodollar Loans.

 

3.8Pro
Rata Treatment and Payments.

 

(a)(i) Each
borrowing of Loans by the Borrower from the Lenders hereunder shall be made pro rata according to the Term Loan Percentages
or Revolving Credit Commitment Percentages, as applicable, of the relevant Lenders in effect on the date of such borrowing.

 

(ii)Each payment
(including each prepayment) by the Borrower, on account of principal of and interest on the Term Loans shall be made pro
rata according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of the Term Loans then held by the Term Lenders. The amount
of each principal prepayment of the Term Loans shall be applied in inverse order of maturity to reduce the then remaining installments
of the Term Loans pro rata based upon the respective then outstanding principal amounts thereof. Amounts prepaid
on account of the Term Loans may not be reborrowed.

 

(iii)Each payment
(including each prepayment) by the Borrower on account of principal of and interest on the Revolving Credit Loans shall be made
pro rata according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of the Revolving Credit Loans then held by the
Revolving Lenders.

 

(iv)Each payment
by the Borrower on account of any commitment fee hereunder shall be allocated by the Administrative Agent among the Revolving Lenders
pro rata in accordance with the Revolving Credit Commitment Percentages of the Lenders as of such date.

 

(v)Any reduction
of the Revolving Credit Commitments of the Lenders shall be allocated by the Administrative Agent among the Lenders pro
rata according to the Revolving Credit Commitment Percentages of the Lenders on the date of such reduction. Any increase
of the Revolving Credit Commitments of the Lenders shall be allocated in accordance with Section 2.8 hereof.

 

    	35

    	 

    
 

(vi)All payments
(including prepayments) to be made by the Borrower in respect of Loans hereunder, whether on account of principal, interest, fees
or otherwise, shall be made without set-off or counterclaim and shall be made prior to 12:00 Noon, New York City time, on the due
date thereof to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Lenders entitled thereto, at the Administrative Agent’s
office specified in Section 10.2, in U.S. Dollars and in immediately available funds. The Administrative Agent shall distribute
such payments to the Lenders entitled to receive the same promptly upon receipt in like funds as received.

 

(vii)If any payment
hereunder (other than payments on the Eurodollar Loans) becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, the maturity
of such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, with respect to payments of principal, interest thereon
shall be payable at the then applicable rate during such extension. If any payment on a Eurodollar Loan becomes due and payable
on a day other than a Business Day, the maturity of such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day (and, with
respect to payments of principal, interest thereon shall be payable at the then applicable rate during such extension) unless the
result of such extension would be to extend such payment into another calendar month, in which event such payment shall be made
on the immediately preceding Business Day.

 

(b)Unless
the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing by any Lender prior to a Borrowing Date that such Lender will not
make the amount that would constitute its share of such borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent
may assume that such Lender is making such amount available to the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance
upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. If such amount is not made available to the Administrative
Agent by the required time on the Borrowing Date therefor, such Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent, on demand, such amount
with interest thereon at a rate per annum equal to the daily average Federal Funds Effective Rate for the period
until such Lender makes such amount immediately available to the Administrative Agent. A certificate of the Administrative Agent
submitted to any Lender with respect to any amounts owing under this Section shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.
If such Lender’s share of such borrowing is not made available to the Administrative Agent by such Lender within three (3)
Business Days of such Borrowing Date, the Borrower shall repay such Lender’s share of such borrowing (together with interest
thereon from the date such amount was made available to the Borrower) at the rate per annum applicable to Base Rate
Loans hereunder to the Administrative Agent not later than three (3) Business Days after receipt of written notice from the Administrative
Agent specifying such Lender’s share of such borrowing that was not made available to such Administrative Agent, and the
Borrower shall have the right to pursue any remedies against such Lender for its failure to make its portion of such borrowing
available.

 

    	36

    	 

    
 

(c)Unless
the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing by the Borrower prior to a date on which a payment is due from the
Borrower hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment available to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent
may assume that the Borrower is making such amount available to the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent may, in
reliance upon such assumption, make available to the applicable Lenders a corresponding amount. If such amount is not made available
to the Administrative Agent by the required time on the due date therefor, each applicable Lender shall pay to the Administrative
Agent, on demand, such amount with interest thereon at a rate per annum equal to the daily average Federal Funds
Effective Rate for the period until such Lender makes such amount immediately available to the Administrative Agent. A certificate
of the Administrative Agent submitted to any Lender with respect to any amounts owing under this Section shall be conclusive in
the absence of manifest error.

 

(d)If any Lender
shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of (a) Obligations in respect
of any of the Facilities due and payable to such Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time in excess of
its ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such Obligations due and payable to such Lender at such
time to (ii) the aggregate amount of the Obligations in respect of the Facilities due and payable to all Lenders hereunder
and under the other Loan Documents at such time) of payments on account of the Obligations in respect of the Facilities due and
payable to all Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time obtained by all the Lenders at such time or (c) Obligations
in respect of any of the Facilities owing (but not due and payable) to such Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents
at such time in excess of its ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such Obligations owing (but
not due and payable) to such Lender at such time to (ii) the aggregate amount of the Obligations in respect of the Facilities
owing (but not due and payable) to all Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time) of payments on account
of the Obligations in respect of the Facilities owing (but not due and payable) to all Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan
Documents at such time obtained by all of the Lenders at such time, then, in each case under clauses (a) and (b) above, the
Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (A) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (B) purchase (for
cash at face value) participations in the Loans of the other Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so
that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of Obligations
in respect of the Facilities then due and payable to the Lenders or owing (but not due and payable) to the Lenders, as the case
may be, provided that:

 

(1)if
any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations
shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest; and

 

(2)the
provisions of this Section shall not be construed to apply to (x) any payment made by or on behalf of the Borrower pursuant
to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including the application of funds arising from the existence of
a Defaulting Lender).

 

Each Loan Party
consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable Law, that any Lender acquiring a
participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against such Loan Party rights of setoff and counterclaim with
respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of such Loan Party in the amount of such participation.

 

    	37

    	 

    
 

3.9Illegality.
Notwithstanding any other provision herein, if the adoption of or any change in any Legal Requirement or in the interpretation
or application thereof shall make it unlawful for any Lender to make or maintain Eurodollar Loans as contemplated by this Agreement,
(a) the commitment of such Lender hereunder to make Eurodollar Loans, continue Eurodollar Loans as such and convert Base Rate Loans
to Eurodollar Loans shall forthwith be cancelled until such time as it shall no longer be unlawful for such Lender to make or maintain
the affected Loans and (b) such Lender’s Loans then outstanding as Eurodollar Loans, if any, shall be converted automatically
to Base Rate Loans on the respective last days of the then current Interest Periods with respect to such Eurodollar Loans or within
such earlier period as may be required by law. If any such conversion of a Eurodollar Loan occurs on a day which is not the last
day of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such amounts, if any, as may
be required pursuant to Section 3.11.

 

 3.10 Increased Costs.

 

(a)In the
event that the adoption of or any change in any Legal Requirement (or in the interpretation or application thereof) or compliance
by any Lender with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any central bank or other Governmental
Authority:

 

(i)does
or shall subject any Lender to any tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement, any Note, any Loans made by it, or
change the basis of taxation of payments to such Lender of principal, fees, interest or any other amount payable hereunder (except
for (A) changes in the rate of tax on the overall net income or profits of such Lender, (B) any tax to the extent that the Borrower
is or would be required to pay an additional amount with respect to such tax under Section 3.12 or (C) any tax with respect to
which the Borrower would not be required to pay an additional amount under Section 3.12 because payment of such additional amount
with respect to such tax would be specifically excluded thereunder);

 

(ii)does
or shall impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan or similar requirement against assets
held by, or deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances or loans by, or other credit extended by, or any other
acquisition of funds by, any office of such Lender which are not otherwise included in the determination of the Eurodollar Rate;
or

 

(iii)does
or shall impose on such Lender any other condition affecting this Agreement or the Loans made by any Lender; and the result of
any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender, by any amount which such Lender deems to be material, of making, renewing,
maintaining or participating in advances or extensions of credit or to reduce any amount receivable hereunder, in each case in
respect of its Loans, then, in any such case, the Borrower shall promptly pay such Lender, upon receipt of its demand setting forth
in reasonable detail, any additional amounts necessary to compensate such Lender for such additional cost or reduced amount receivable,
together with interest on each such amount from the date two (2) Business Days after the date demanded until payment in full thereof
at the Base Rate. A certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to the foregoing sentence submitted by such Lender,
through the Administrative Agent, to the Borrower shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. This covenant shall survive
the termination of this Agreement and payment of all amounts outstanding hereunder for a period of one (1) year.

 

    	38

    	 

    
 

(b)The
Borrower will pay any Lender, on demand, for such Lender’s costs or losses arising from any Change in Law which are allocated
to this Agreement or any credit outstanding under this Agreement. The allocation will be made as determined by such Lender, using
any reasonable method. The costs include, without limitation, the following:

 

(i)any reserve
or deposit requirements (excluding any reserve requirement already reflected in the calculation of the interest rate in this Agreement);
and

 

(ii)any capital
requirements relating to the Lender’s assets and commitments for credit.

 

“Change in Law”
means the occurrence, after the date of this Agreement, of the adoption or taking effect of any new or changed law, rule, regulation
or treaty, or the issuance of any request, rule, guideline or directive (whether or not having the force of law) by any Governmental
Authority; provided that (x) the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines
or directives issued in connection with that Act, and (y) all requests, rules guidelines or directives promulgated by the Bank
for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor authority) or the United States regulatory
authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III, shall in each case be deemed to be a “Change in Law”, regardless of
the date enacted, adopted or issued.

 

(c)Any request
by any Lender for compensation under this Section 3.10 shall be accompanied by a certificate of a duly authorized officer of such
Lender setting forth such information and calculations supporting such request as such Lender shall customarily provide in similar
situations.

 

(d)Failure
or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 3.10 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s
right to demand such compensation.

 

3.11Indemnity.
Without duplication of the provisions of Section 3.15, the Borrower agrees to indemnify each Lender and to hold each Lender harmless
from any loss or expense which such Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of (a) default by the Borrower in payment when
due of the principal amount of or interest on any Loans of such Lender, (b) default by the Borrower in making a borrowing, continuation
or conversion after the Borrower has given a notice of borrowing, a notice of continuation or a notice of conversion in accordance
with this Agreement, (c) default by the Borrower in making any prepayment after the Borrower has given a notice in accordance with
this Agreement or (d) the making of a prepayment, continuation or conversion of a Eurodollar Loan on a day which is not the last
day of an Interest Period with respect thereto, including, without limitation, in each case, any such loss or expense arising from
the reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain its Eurodollar Loans hereunder or from fees payable to terminate the deposits
from which such funds were obtained, but excluding, in each case, lost profit. A certificate as to any amounts payable pursuant
to this Section 3.11, submitted by a Lender to the Borrower shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. This covenant
shall survive termination of this Agreement and payment of all amounts outstanding hereunder.

 

    	39

    	 

    
 

 3.12 Taxes.

 

(a)Any and
all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower hereunder shall be made free and clear of and without deduction
for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes; provided that if the Borrower shall be required to deduct any Indemnified Taxes
or Other Taxes from such payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions
(including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the Administrative Agent or Lender (as the case
may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Borrower shall make
such deductions and (iii) the Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance
with applicable law.

 

(b)In addition,
the Borrower shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

 

(c)The Borrower
shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender, within 10 days after written demand therefor, accompanied by a certificate
setting forth the nature and calculation of the amounts being demanded, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes
paid by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any
obligation of the Borrower hereunder (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts
payable under this Section) and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether
or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.
A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender, or by the Administrative Agent
on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

 

(d)Each Lender
shall indemnify the Administrative Agent within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Excluded Taxes attributable
to such Lender that are payable by the Administrative Agent and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto,
whether or not such Excluded 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 any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest
error.

 

(e)As soon
as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by the Borrower to a Governmental Authority, the Borrower
shall deliver to the Administrative 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 Administrative
Agent.

 

    	40

    	 

    
 

(f)Any Lender
that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of any applicable withholding tax with respect to payments hereunder or under
any other Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time or times reasonably
requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable
law as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if
requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably
requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative 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, in the case of any withholding tax other than U.S. federal withholding tax the completion, execution
and submission of such forms shall not be required if in the Lender’s 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.

 

Without limiting
the generality of the foregoing, any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower
and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which
such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the request of the Borrower or
the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:

 

(i)duly completed
copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN claiming eligibility for benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States
of America is a party,

 

(ii)duly completed
copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI,

 

(iii)in the case
of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate
to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not (A) a “bank” within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code,
(B) a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, (C) a “controlled
foreign corporation” described in section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code and (D) the interest payment in question are not effectively
connected with the United States trade or business conducted by such Lender (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and
(y) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN,

 

(iv)to the extent
a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner (for example, where the Foreign Lender is a partnership or participating Lender granting
a typical participation), an Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY, accompanied by a Form W-8ECI, W-8BEN, U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate,
Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that, if the Foreign Lender
is a partnership (and not a participating Lender) and one or more beneficial owners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio
interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate on behalf of such beneficial owner(s), or

 

    	41

    	 

    
 

(v) any other
form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in United States federal withholding tax
duly completed together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Borrower to
determine the withholding or deduction required to be made.

 

Each Lender agrees
that if any form or certification it previously delivered by it expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall
update such form or certification or promptly notify Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to
do so.

 

(g)If the
Administrative Agent or a Lender has received a refund of any Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower
or with respect to which the Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 3.12, it shall pay over such refund
to the Borrower as determined in good faith by the Administrative Agent or such Lender in its sole commercially reasonable discretion
(but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower under this Section 3.12 with respect
to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent or such
Lender and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund);
provided that the Borrower upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid
over to the Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative
Agent or such Lender in the event the Administrative Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental
Authority. This Section 3.12 shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make available its tax
returns (or any other information relating to its taxes which it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person.

 

3.13Use
of Proceeds. The proceeds of the Loans shall be used to fund the refinancing of existing revolving and term indebtedness payable
to the Existing Lender pursuant to the Existing Credit Agreement, pay fees, commissions, and expenses in connection therewith,
and for the general working capital and general corporate purposes of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries.

 

3.14Change
in Lending Office; Replacement of Lender.

 

(a)Each Lender
agrees that if it makes any demand for payment under Section 3.10 or 3.12, or if any adoption or change of the type described in
Section 3.9 shall occur with respect to it, it will use reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory
restrictions and so long as such efforts would not be disadvantageous to it, as determined in its sole discretion) to designate
a different lending office or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates
if such designation or assignment would reduce or obviate the need for the Borrower to make payments under Section 3.10 or 3.12,
or would eliminate or reduce the effect of any adoption or change described in Section 3.9.

(b)If any
Lender requests any payment under Section 3.10 or 3.12, the Borrower shall have the right to replace such Lender with one or more
replacement lenders, each of which shall be reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent; provided that (i) the Borrower
shall repay (or the replacement lender shall purchase) all Loans and other amounts owing hereunder to such replaced Lender on or
prior to the date of replacement, (ii) until such time as such replacement shall be consummated, the Borrower shall pay additional
amounts (if any) required pursuant to Section 3.10 or 3.12 for the period prior to replacement and (iii) any such replacement shall

Interest Period applicable thereto (including, without limitation, as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the conversion of any
Eurodollar other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto, or (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue
or prepay any Eurodollar Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto, then, in any such event, the Borrower
shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event. Such loss, cost or expense to any Lender
shall be the amount determined by such Lender to be the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest that would have accrued on
the principal amount of such Loan had such event not occurred, at the Eurodollar Rate that would have been applicable to such Loan,
for the period from the date of such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a failure
to borrow, convert or continue, for the period that would have been the Interest Period for such Loan) over (ii) the amount of
interest that would accrue on such principal amount for such period at the interest rate such Lender would bid were it to bid,
at the commencement of such period, for dollar deposits of a comparable amount and period from other banks in the eurodollar market.
A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section
3.15 shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount
shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof. The Lender is authorized (but not obligated) to debit
any deposit account of the Borrower now or hereafter maintained by the Borrower with the Lender to pay any such amount that is

Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing indebtedness of the Borrower to such
Lender resulting from each Revolving Credit Loan or Term Loan of such Lender from time to time, including the amounts of principal
and interest payable thereon and paid to such Lender from time to time under this Agreement.

 

    	43

    	 

    
 

(b)The Administrative
Agent shall maintain the Register pursuant to Section 10.6(b), and a subaccount therein for each Lender, in which shall be recorded
(i) the amount of each Revolving Credit Loan or Term Loan made hereunder, the Type thereof and each Interest Period applicable
thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender
hereunder in respect of the Revolving Credit Loans or Term Loans and (iii) both the amount of any sum received by the Administrative
Agent hereunder from the Borrower in respect of the Revolving Credit Loans or Term Loans and each Lender’s share thereof.

 

(c)The entries
made in the Register and the accounts of each Lender maintained pursuant to Section 3.16(a) shall, to the extent permitted by applicable
law, be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations of the Borrower therein recorded; provided,
however, that the failure of any Lender to maintain such account or the Administrative Agent to maintain the Register, or
any error therein, shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay (with applicable interest) the Loans
made to the Borrower by such Lender in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

 

(d)The Borrower
agrees that it will, upon the request of any Term Lender, execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note of the Borrower
evidencing the Term Loans owed by it, substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A-1 with appropriate insertions
as to date and principal amount and indicating the Term Loan Percentage of such Term Lenders (each, a “Term Loan Note”).
The Borrower agrees that it will, upon the request of any Revolving Lender, execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note
of the Borrower evidencing the Revolving Credit Commitment of such Lender, substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit
A-2 with appropriate insertions as to date and principal amount (each, a “Revolving Credit Note”); provided
that any Revolving Credit Note previously delivered to such Lender (or any predecessor thereof) has been returned to the Borrower
and marked cancelled or an affidavit or lost or destroyed Note (in form reasonably acceptable to the Borrower) is executed and
delivered by such requesting Lender in lieu of such Note.

with all Requirements of Law, except to the extent that the failure to comply therewith would not, in the aggregate, reasonably

and any Notes and to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents to which it is a party. No consent

any Loan Party or of any of its Subsidiaries except (other than with respect to Security Documents or the organizational and governing
documents of such Loan Party or Subsidiaries), as would not, in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse
Effect, or (b) result in, or require, the creation or imposition of any Lien on any of its or their respective properties or revenues
pursuant to any such Requirement of Law or Contractual Obligation (other than those Liens created by the Loan Documents).

to any Lien except as permitted by Section 7.3. With respect to real property or interests in real property, as of the Closing
Date, the Borrower or its Subsidiaries have (i) fee title to all of the real property listed on Schedule 4.8 under the heading
“Fee Properties”, and (ii) good and valid title to the leasehold estates in all of the real property leased by it and

and any matters affecting the fee title and any estate superior to the leasehold estate related thereto, and (C) title or lease

material Intellectual Property or the validity or enforceability of any such Intellectual Property which would reasonably be expected
to have a Material Adverse Effect, nor does any Loan Party know of any valid basis for any such claim. The use of such Intellectual
Property by each Loan Party and its Subsidiaries does not infringe on the rights of any Person, except for such claims and infringements

FR Form U-1 referred to in said Regulation U, as the case may be.

 

4.12ERISA

 

(a)No ERISA
Event has occurred or is reasonably expected to occur that, when taken together with all other such ERISA Events for which liability
is reasonably expected to occur, would reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. The present value of all

ability to incur Indebtedness.

Schedule 4.14 sets forth all Subsidiaries (if any) of the Borrower.

(b)The Properties
and all operations at the Properties are in compliance in all material respects with all applicable Environmental Laws, and there

with the continued operation of the Properties.

 

(c)Neither
any Loan Party nor any of its Subsidiaries has received any written notice of violation, alleged violation, non-compliance, liability
or potential liability regarding any Environmental Laws with regard to any of the Properties or the Business, nor does any Loan
Party have knowledge that any such notice will be received or is being threatened.

 

(d)No Hazardous
Materials have been transported or disposed of from the Properties in violation of, or in a manner or to a location which could
reasonably be expected to give rise to liability under, any Environmental Law, nor have any Hazardous Materials been generated,

to give rise to liability under, any applicable Environmental Law.

 

(e)No judicial
proceeding or governmental or administrative action is pending or, to the knowledge of any Loan Party, threatened, under any Environmental
Law to which any Loan Party or any Subsidiary thereof is or will be named as a party with respect to the Properties or the Business,
nor are there any decrees, orders or agreements which impose obligations, or other administrative or judicial requirements outstanding
under any Environmental Law with respect to the Properties or the Business.

been no release or threat of release of Hazardous Materials at, under or from the Properties, or arising from or related to the
operations of any Loan Party or any Subsidiary thereof in connection with the Properties or otherwise in connection with the Business,

Each Loan Party is, and after giving effect to the incurrence of all Indebtedness and obligations being incurred in connection
herewith will be, Solvent.

 

4.17Security
Documents. The Security Agreements are effective to create in favor of the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders,

any) permitted hereunder, and proceeds thereof.

 

4.18Insurance.
Schedule 4.18 sets forth a true, complete and correct summary description of all material insurance maintained by each Loan
Party. Such insurance is in full force and effect and all premiums have been duly paid. Each Loan Party has insurance through insurers
it reasonably believes to be of recognized financial responsibility covering its properties, operations, personnel and businesses,
including business interruption insurance, which insurance is in amounts and insures against such losses and risks as it reasonably
believes are adequate to protect it and its Subsidiaries and their respective businesses; and neither the Borrower nor any of its
Subsidiaries has received notice from any insurer or agent of such insurer that capital improvements or other expenditures are
required or necessary to be made in order to continue such insurance.

requiring payments in excess of one hundred thousand ($100,000) dollars shall not have been paid pursuant to its terms, vacated,

upon Event of Default. If any Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Administrative Agent shall, at the request of,
or may, with the consent of, the Required Lenders, take any or all of the following actions:

 

(a)declare
the Commitment of each Lender to make Loans to be terminated, whereupon such commitments and obligation shall be terminated;

 

(b)declare
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 to be immediately due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice
of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Borrower; and

 

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

 

provided, however, that upon
the occurrence of an actual or deemed entry of an order for relief with respect to the Borrower under the Bankruptcy Code of the
United States, the obligation of each Lender to make Loans shall automatically terminate, the unpaid principal amount of all outstanding
Loans and all interest and other amounts as aforesaid shall automatically become due and payable.

 

    	65

    	 

    
 

8.3Application
of Funds: After the exercise of remedies provided for in Section 8.2 (or after the Loans have automatically become immediately
due and payable) or if at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all

of Section 2.9, be applied by the Administrative Agent in the following order :

 

First,
to payment of that portion of the Secured Obligations constituting fees, indemnities, expenses and other amounts (including fees,
charges and disbursements of counsel to the Administrative Agent and amounts payable under Article III) payable to the Administrative
Agent in its capacity as such;

 

Second,
to payment of that portion of the Secured Obligations constituting fees, indemnities and other amounts (other than principal and

the Loan Documents and amounts payable under Article III, ratably among them in proportion to the respective amounts described
in this clause Second payable to them;

 

Third,
to payment of that portion of the Secured Obligations constituting accrued and unpaid interest on the Loans, and other Secured
Obligations arising under the Loan Documents, ratably among the Lenders in proportion to the respective amounts described in this

Fourth,
to payment of that portion of the Secured Obligations constituting unpaid principal of the Loans, and Secured Obligations then

required by Law.

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Secured
Obligations arising under Secured Cash Management Agreements and Secured Swap Contracts shall be excluded from the application
described above if the Administrative Agent has not received a Secured Party Designation Notice, together with such supporting
documentation as the Administrative Agent may request, from the applicable Cash Management Bank. Each Cash Management Bank not
a party to this Agreement that has given the notice contemplated by the preceding sentence shall, by such notice, be deemed to
have acknowledged and accepted the appointment of the Administrative Agent pursuant to the terms of Article IX for itself and its
Affiliates as if a “Lender” party hereto.

ARTICLE IX:THE
AGENT AND THE ARRANGER

 

9.1Appointment.
Each Lender hereby irrevocably designates and appoints Sovereign Bank, N.A. as the Administrative Agent and as the Collateral Agent
of each such Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and each Lender irrevocably authorizes each of the Administrative
Agent and the Collateral Agent, in such respective capacities, to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement
and the other Loan Documents and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to the Administrative
Agent and the Collateral Agent, as the case may be, by the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, together with
such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary elsewhere in this Agreement,
no Agent shall have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein, or any fiduciary relationship with
any Lender, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement
or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist against any Agent.

 

9.2Delegation
of Duties. Each Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents by or through agents
or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. No Agent shall
be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it with reasonable care.

 

9.3Exculpatory
Provisions. The Administrative 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 Administrative Agent and its Related Parties:

 

(a)shall
not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a 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 Administrative 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 Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in
its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative 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 Defaulting 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 or responsibility to disclose, and shall
not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to any Loan Party or any of its Affiliates that is communicated
to or obtained by the Person serving as the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.

 

    	67

    	 

    
 

Neither the Administrative
Agent nor any of its Related Parties shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by the Administrative Agent under or in
connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby (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
as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Sections 10.1
and 8.2) 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. Any such action taken or failure to act pursuant to the foregoing shall be binding on all
Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until notice describing such
Default is given in writing to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower or a Lender.

 

Neither the Administrative
Agent nor any of its Related Parties have any duty or obligation to any Lender or participant or any other Person 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, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness
of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or the creation, perfection or priority
of any Lien purported to be created by the Security Documents, (v) the value or the sufficiency of any Collateral, or (vi) the
satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required
to be delivered to the Administrative Agent.

 

9.4Reliance
by Agent. The Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any Note, writing, resolution,
notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telecopy, telex or teletype message, statement, order or other document or conversation
believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons and upon advice
and statements of legal counsel (including, without limitation, counsel to the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts
selected by such Agent with reasonable care. The Agent may deem and treat the Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant
to the terms hereof as the owner thereof for all purposes unless a written notice of assignment, negotiation or transfer thereof
shall have been filed with the Administrative Agent. The Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action
under this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders
(or, to the extent provided in Section 10.1, all of the Lenders) as it deems appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its
satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing
to take any such action. The Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement
and the other Loan Documents in accordance with a request of the Required Lenders (or, to the extent provided in Section 10.1,
all of the Lenders), and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders
and all future holders of the Loans.

 

    	68

    	 

    
 

9.5Notice
of Default. No Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default hereunder
unless the Administrative Agent has received notice from a Lender or the Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such
Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default” (and, in the case of the Collateral
Agent, shall have received notice thereof as described in the following sentence). In the event that the Administrative Agent receives
such a notice, the Administrative Agent shall promptly give notice thereof to the other Agents and Lenders. The Administrative
Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall be reasonably directed by the Required Lenders
(or, if so specified by this Agreement, all Lenders); provided that unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received
such directions, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action,
with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interests of the Lenders.

 

9.6Non-Reliance
on Agent and Other Lenders. Each Lender expressly acknowledges that no Agent or any Agent’s officers, directors, employees,
agents, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates has made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by any Agent hereafter
taken, including any review of the affairs of the Borrower shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any
Agent to any Lender. Each Lender represents to each Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any
other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of an investigation
into the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrower and made its own decision
to make its Loans hereunder and enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without
reliance upon the Agents, the Arranger or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate
at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement
and the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigation as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, operations,
property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrower. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly
required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent hereunder, no Agent shall have any
duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, property,
condition (financial or otherwise), prospects or creditworthiness of the Borrower which may come into the possession of such Agent
or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates.

 

9.7Indemnification.
The Lenders agree to indemnify each Agent in its capacity as such (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower and without limiting
the obligation of the Borrower to do so), ratably according to their respective Total Loan Percentages in effect on the date on
which indemnification is sought (or, if indemnification is sought after the date upon which the Commitments shall have terminated
and the Loans shall have been paid in full, ratably in accordance with their Total Loan Percentages immediately prior to such date),
from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or
disbursements of any kind whatsoever which may at any time (including, without limitation, at any time following the payment of
the Loans) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Agent in any way relating to or arising out of the Commitments,
this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions
contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by such Agent under or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided
that no Lender shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions,
judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting solely from such Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.
The agreements in this Section 9.7 shall survive the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

 

    	69

    	 

    
 

9.8Agent
in Its Individual Capacity. The entity which is an Agent and its Affiliates may make extensions of credit to, accept deposits
from and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower as though the entity which is such Agent were not such Agent
hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. With respect to the Loans made by it, such entity shall have the same rights and
powers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as any Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not an Agent,
and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” shall include the entity which is such Agent in its individual capacity.

 

9.9Successor Agents. (a)
Notice. The Administrative Agent may at any time resign as Administrative Agent upon thirty (30) days notice to the Lenders
and the Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with
the Borrower, to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank
with an office in the United States. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted
such appointment prior to the effective date of the resignation of the Administrative Agent gives (the “Resignation Effective
Date”), then the retiring Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) on behalf of the Lenders, appoint
a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above; provided that if the Administrative Agent shall notify
the Borrower and the Lenders that no qualifying Person has accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become
effective.

 

(b)Defaulting
Lender. If the Person serving as Administrative Agent is a Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (d) of the definition thereof,
the Required Lenders may, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, by notice in writing to the Borrower and such Person remove
such Person as Administrative Agent and, in consultation with the Borrower, 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 (or such earlier day
as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders) (the “Removal Effective Date”), then such removal shall nonetheless
become effective in accordance with such notice on the Removal Effective Date.

 

    	70

    	 

    
 

(c)Effect
of Resignation or Removal. With effect from the Resignation Effective Date or the Removal Effective Date (as applicable) (i) the
retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan
Documents (except that in the case of any collateral security held by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders under any
of the Loan Documents, the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such
time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed) and (ii) except for any indemnity payments or other amounts then owed
to the retiring or removed Administrative Agent, all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to
or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender directly, until such time, if any, as the Required
Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment
as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges
and duties of the retiring (or removed) Administrative Agent (and other than any rights to indemnity payments or other amounts
owed to the retiring or removed Administrative Agent as of the Resignation Effective Date or the Removal Effective Date, as applicable),
and the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under
the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section). The fees payable by the Borrower
to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower
and such successor. After the retiring or removed Administrative Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder and under the other
Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article and Section 11.4 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring
or removed Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted
to be taken by any of them while the retiring or removed Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent.

 

9.10 Secured
Cash Management Agreements and Secured Swap Contracts.

 

Except as otherwise
expressly set forth herein, no Cash Management Bank or Swap Provider that obtains the benefit of the provisions of Sections 8.3
or 9.7, or any Collateral by virtue of the provisions hereof or any Loan Document shall have any right to notice of any action
or to consent to, direct or object to any action hereunder or under any other Loan Document or otherwise in respect of the Collateral
(including the release or impairment of any Collateral) (or to notice of or to consent to any amendment, waiver or modification
of the provisions hereof or any Collateral Document) other than in its capacity as a Lender and, in such case, only to the extent
expressly provided in the Loan Documents. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article to the contrary, the Administrative
Agent shall not be required to verify the payment of, or that other satisfactory arrangements have been made with respect to, Secured
Obligations arising under Secured Cash Management Agreements and Secured Swap Contracts except to the extent expressly provided
herein and unless the Administrative Agent has received a Secured Party Designation Notice of such Secured Obligations, together
with such supporting documentation as the Administrative Agent may request, from the applicable Cash Management Bank or Swap Provider,
as the case may be. The Administrative Agent shall not be required to verify the payment of, or that other satisfactory arrangements
have been made with respect to, Secured Obligations arising under Secured Cash Management Agreements and Secured Swap Contracts
in the case of a Termination Date.

ARTICLE X:MISCELLANEOUS

 

10.1Amendments
and Waivers. (a) Neither this Agreement nor any other Loan Document, nor any terms hereof or thereof, may be amended, supplemented,
waived or modified except in accordance with the provisions of this Section 10.1. The Required Lenders may, or, with the written
consent of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent may, from time to time, (y) enter into with the applicable Loan Parties
written amendments, supplements or modifications hereto and to the other Loan Documents for the purpose of adding any provisions
to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or changing in any manner the rights or obligations of the Lenders or of the Borrower
or of any other Loan Party hereunder or thereunder or (z) waive at the Borrower’s request, on such terms and conditions as
the Required Lenders or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, may specify in such instrument, any of the requirements of
this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or any Default or Event of Default and its consequences; provided, however, that no
such waiver and no such amendment, supplement or modification shall:

 

(i)increase
the Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender,

 

(ii)reduce
the principal amount of any Loan or reduce the rate of interest thereon or require any Lender to offer Interest Periods of longer
than six months without regard to availability, or reduce any fees payable hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender
affected thereby,

 

(iii)postpone
the scheduled date of payment of the principal amount of any Loan or any interest thereon, or any fees payable hereunder, or reduce
the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment, or postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any Commitment, without the written
consent of each Lender affected thereby,

 

(iv)change
Section 3.8 in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby, without the written consent of each
Lender affected thereby,

 

(v)release
any Guaranty Agreements or Security Agreements or any Guarantor, or all or substantially all of the Collateral under, and as defined
in, the Guaranty Agreements or Security Documents without the written consent of each Lender,

any of the provisions of this Section 10.1 or the definition of “Required Lenders” or any other provision hereof specifying
the number or percentage of Lenders required to waive, amend or modify any rights hereunder or make any determination or grant
any consent hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender, or

 

(vii)amend
or waive any provisions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document for purposes of determining whether the conditions precedent
set forth in Section 5.2 to the making of any Revolving Credit Loan have been satisfied without the written consent of the Required
Lenders.

 

(viii)Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary herein, (A) no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent
hereunder (and any amendment, waiver or consent which by its terms requires the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender,
or all Lenders or each affected Lender under a Facility, may be effected with the consent of the applicable Lenders other than
Defaulting Lenders, except that (1) the Commitment of any Defaulting Lender may not be increased or extended without the consent
of such Lender and (2) any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender,
or all Lenders or each affected Lender under a Facility, that by its terms affects any Defaulting Lender disproportionately adversely
relative to other affected Lenders shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender; (B) each Lender is entitled to vote
as such Lender sees fit on any bankruptcy reorganization plan that affects the Loans, and each Lender acknowledges that the provisions
of Section 1126(c) of the Bankruptcy Code of the United States supersedes the unanimous consent provisions set forth herein
and (C) the Required Lenders shall determine whether or not to allow a Loan Party to use cash collateral in the context of
a bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding and such determination shall be binding on all of the Lenders.

 

    	72

    	 

    
 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
herein the Administrative Agent may, with the prior written consent of the Borrower only, amend, modify or supplement this Agreement
or any of the other Loan Documents to cure any ambiguity, omission, mistake, defect or inconsistency.

 

(b) If,
in connection with any proposed amendment, waiver or consent requiring the consent of “each Lender” or “each
Lender directly affected thereby,” or the consent of the Required Lenders, and the consent of necessary Lenders is not obtained
(any such Lender whose consent is necessary but not obtained being referred to herein as a “Non-Consenting Lender”),
then the Borrower may elect to replace a Non-Consenting Lender as a Lender party to this Agreement, provided that, concurrently
with such replacement, (i) another bank or other entity which is reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower and the Administrative
Agent shall agree, as of such date, to purchase for cash the Loans and other Obligations due to the Non-Consenting Lender pursuant
to an Assignment and Assumption and to become a Lender for all purposes under this Agreement and to assume all obligations of the
Non-Consenting Lender to be terminated as of such date and to comply with the requirements of clause (c) of Section 10.6(b)(i)(A),
and (ii) the Borrower shall pay to such Non-Consenting Lender in same day funds on the day of such replacement all interest, fees
and other amounts then accrued but unpaid to such Non-Consenting Lender by the Company hereunder to and including the date of termination,
including without limitation payments due to such Non-Consenting Lender under Sections 3.6, 3.7, 3.8 and 3.9.

 

(c)In addition
to the foregoing, (x) no such amendment, supplement or modification shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties
of any Agent or any Lender hereunder without the prior written consent of such Agent or the Lender, as the case may be, and (y)
no such amendment, supplement, modification or waiver shall amend, modify or otherwise affect Section 7.1 at a time when a Default
or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing unless the Lenders holding a majority in interest of the Aggregate Revolving
Credit Commitments shall have consented in writing to such amendment, modification or waiver. Any waiver and any amendment, supplement
or modification pursuant to this Section 10.1 shall apply to each of the Lenders and shall be binding upon the Borrower, the applicable
other Loan Parties, the Lenders, the Agents and all future holders of the Loans. In the case of any waiver, the Borrower, the Lenders
and the Agents shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, and any Default
or Event of Default waived shall be deemed to be cured and not continuing; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or
other Default or Event of Default, or impair any right consequent thereon.

10.3No
Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure to exercise and no delay in exercising, on the part of any Agent or any Lender, any
right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder or under the other Loan Documents 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. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein provided are cumulative
and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by law.

 

10.4Survival.
All representations and warranties made hereunder, in the other Loan Documents and in any document, certificate or statement delivered
pursuant hereto or in connection herewith shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making of the Loans
hereunder until all obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents have been paid in full and the Commitments hereunder
have been terminated. In addition to all other covenants and agreements which are stated to survive the termination of this Agreement
and the payment of the Loans, the Notes and all other amounts payable hereunder, the agreements in Section 3.12 shall survive the
termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Notes and all other amounts payable hereunder until the expiration of the
applicable statute of limitations for such taxes.

 

10.5Payment
of Expenses and Taxes; Indemnity. The Borrower agrees (a) to pay or reimburse the Administrative Agent for all its reasonable
out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the development, preparation, syndication and execution of, and any
amendment, supplement or modification to, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any other documents prepared in connection
herewith or therewith, and the consummation and administration of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including,
without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel to the Administrative Agent, (b) to pay or reimburse each
Lender and any Agent for all its reasonable costs and expenses incurred during the continuance of any Default or Event of Default
in connection with the enforcement or preservation of any rights under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any such other
documents, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel to each Lender and of counsel to the
Agents, (c) to pay, indemnify, and hold harmless each Lender and the Agent from, any and all recording and filing fees and any
and all liabilities with respect to, or resulting from any delay in paying, Other Taxes, if any, which may be payable or determined
to be payable in connection with the execution and delivery of, or consummation or administration of any of the transactions contemplated
by, or any amendment, supplement or modification of, or any waiver or consent under or in respect of, this Agreement, the other
Loan Documents and any such other documents, and (d) to pay, indemnify, and hold harmless each Lender and the Administrative Agent
and their respective officers, directors, employees, subsidiaries, affiliates, shareholders, agents and controlling persons (each,
an “Indemnitee”) from and against any and all other liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, settlement payment,
penalties, claims, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever with respect to
the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance and administration of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and related documents,
the transactions contemplated thereby, the use of the proceeds of the Loans, or the Collateral therefor, including, without limitation,
any of the foregoing relating to the violation of, noncompliance with or liability under, any Environmental Law applicable to the
operations of the Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries or any of the Properties (all the foregoing in this clause (d), collectively,
the “indemnified liabilities”), provided that the Borrower shall have no obligation hereunder to the Administrative
Agent or any Lender with respect to indemnified liabilities solely arising from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such
Indemnitee. In any such litigation, or the preparation therefor, the Borrower may elect to assume the defense thereof with counsel
retained by Borrower and reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, however the Administrative Agent and the Lenders
shall be entitled to select their own counsel and, in addition to the foregoing indemnity, the Borrower agrees to pay promptly
the reasonable fees and expenses of Indemnitees’ counsel, provided further that so long as Indemnitees’ interests are
similar in all material respects, the Indemnitees shall endeavor to use the same counsel. The agreements in this Section shall
survive the termination of this Agreement and the repayment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

10.6Successors
and Assigns; Participation and Assignments.

 

(a)This
Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrower, the Lenders, the Agent and their respective successors
and assigns permitted hereby, except that (i) the Borrower may not assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations under this
Agreement without the prior written consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by the Borrower without such
consent shall be null and void) and (ii) no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder except
in accordance with this Section 10.6. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person
(other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby), Participants (to the extent provided
in paragraph (c) of this Section 10.6) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of the Agent and the
Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

 

(b)(i)
Subject to the conditions set forth in clause (ii) below, any Lender may assign to one or more assignees (“Eligible
Assignees”) all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment
and the Loans at the time owing to it) with the prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or
conditioned) of:

 

(A)the
Borrower, provided that no consent of the Borrower shall be required at any time for an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate
of a Lender or an Approved Fund (defined below), or for any assignment to any assignee prior to completion of primary syndication
of the Loans and Commitments hereunder (as determined by the Arranger in its sole discretion) or if a Default or Event of Default
has occurred and is continuing; and

 

(B)the
Administrative Agent, provided that no consent of the Administrative Agent shall be required for (i) an assignment of any
Revolving Credit Commitment to an assignee that is a Lender with a Revolving Credit Commitment immediately prior to giving effect
to such assignment or an Affiliate of such Lender or (ii) an assignment of all or portion of a Term Loan to an assignee that is
a Term Lender immediately prior to giving effect to such assignment or an Affiliate of such Lender.

 

    	75

    	 

    
 

		(ii)	Assignments shall be subject to the following additional conditions:

 

(A)except
in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning
Lender’s Commitment or Loans of any Class, the amount of the Commitment or Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each
such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative
Agent) shall not be less than $5,000,000.00 or unless each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consents,
provided that no such consent of the Borrower shall be required prior to completion of primary syndication of the Loans
and Commitments hereunder (as determined by Sovereign Bank, N.A. in its sole discretion) or if a Default or Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing;

 

(B)each
partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations
under this Agreement, provided that this clause shall not be construed to prohibit the assignment of a proportionate part
of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations in respect of one Class of Commitments or Loans;

 

(C)notwithstanding
any provision to the contrary in (ii)(B) above, each assignment of Term Loans by a Lender shall include a ratable assignment of
Term Loans made to the Borrower;

 

(D)the parties
to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance, together with a processing
and recordation fee of $3,500, provided that only one such fee shall be payable in the event of simultaneous assignments
by a Lender to or from two or more Approved Funds; and

 

(E)the assignee,
if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a completed Administrative Questionnaire.

 

(F)No such assignment
shall be made (A) to the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries, (B) to any Defaulting Lender
or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons
described in this clause (B), or (C) to a natural Person.

 

(G)In connection
with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment shall be effective unless
and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional
payments to the Administrative Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be
outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions, including funding,
with the consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Loans previously requested but
not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (A) pay
and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder
(and interest accrued thereon) and (B) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Loans in accordance
with its respective applicable Percentage. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations
of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under applicable Law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph,
then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance
occurs.

 

    	76

    	 

    
 

 

For purposes of the minimum
assignment sizes set forth in Section 10.6(b) (ii) (A), simultaneous assignments to Approved Funds under common management by a
Lender shall be aggregated, provided that any such individual assignment shall not be less than $500,000. For the purposes of this
Section 10.6(b), the term “Approved Fund” has the following meaning:

 

“Approved Fund”
means any Person (other than a natural person) that is engaged in making, purchasing, holding or investing in bank loans and similar
extensions of credit in the ordinary course of its business and that is administered or managed by (a) a Lender, (b) an Affiliate
of a Lender or (c) an entity or an Affiliate of an entity that administers or manages a Lender, provided that a hedge fund or similar
financial institution that operates like a hedge fund shall not be deemed an Approved Fund.

 

(iii)Subject
to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (b)(iv) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified
in each Assignment and Assumption the assignee thereunder (“Assignee”) shall be a party hereto and, to the extent
of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and
the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from
its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s
rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender
of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 10.6 shall be treated for purposes of this
Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (c) of this Section.

 

(iv)The Administrative
Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and
Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitment of,
and principal amount of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”).
The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Borrower, the Agents and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name
is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding
notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and
from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

 

(v)Upon its
receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an Assignee, the Assignee’s completed
Administrative Questionnaire (unless the Assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred
to in paragraph (b) of this Section and any written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section, the Administrative
Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained therein in the Register. No assignment shall
be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph.

 

    	77

    	 

    
 

(c)(i)Any
Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or the other Lenders, sell participations to one or more
banks or other entities (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations
under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans owing to it); provided that (A) such Lender’s
obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto
for the performance of such obligations and (C) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to
deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any
agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole
right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided
that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment,
modification or waiver described in clauses (ii), (iii) and (v) of Section 10.1 that affects such Participant. Subject to paragraph
(c) (ii) of this Section, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.10, 3.11 and
3.12 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section.
To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.7 as though it were a Lender,
provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 3.8 as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a
participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as an 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 this Agreement (the “Participant Register”). 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.

 

(ii)A Participant
shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 3.10 or 3.12 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled
to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant
is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall
not be entitled to the benefits of Section 3.12 unless the Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and
such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower, to comply with Section 3.12(f) as though it were a Lender.

 

(d)Any Lender
may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations
of such Lender, including without limitation any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this
Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment
of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee
for such Lender as a party hereto.

 

    	78

    	 

    
 

10.7Adjustments;
Set-off.

 

(a)If any
Lender (a “Benefited Lender”) shall at any time receive any payment of all or part of its Loans owing to it
by the Borrower, or interest thereon, or receive any collateral in respect thereof (whether voluntarily or involuntarily, by set-off,
pursuant to events or proceedings of the nature referred to in clause (h) of Section 8 or otherwise, except for payments pursuant
to the operation of Sections 3.14(b) or 10.6), in a greater proportion than any such payment to or collateral received by any other
Lender, if any, in respect of such other Lender’s Loans owing to it by the Borrower or interest thereon, such Benefited Lender
shall purchase for cash from the other Lenders a participating interest in such portion of each such other Lender’s Loan
owing to it by the Borrower or shall provide such other Lenders with the benefits of any such collateral, or the proceeds thereof,
as shall be necessary to cause such Benefited Lender to share the excess payment or benefits of such collateral or proceeds ratably
with each of the Lenders; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment or benefits is thereafter
recovered from such Benefited Lender, such purchase shall be rescinded, and the purchase price and benefits returned, to the extent
of such recovery, but without interest.

 

(b)In addition
to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by law, each Lender shall have the right, without prior notice to the Borrower,
any such notice being expressly waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law, upon any amount becoming due
and payable by the Borrower hereunder (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) to set off and appropriate
and apply against such amount any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any currency,
and any other credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent,
matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by such Lender or any branch or agency thereof to or for the credit or the account
of the Borrower. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent after any such set-off and application
made by such Lender, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application.

 

10.8Counterparts;
Execution. This Agreement may be executed by one or more of the parties to this Agreement on any number of separate counterparts
(including by facsimile transmission), and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same
instrument. A set of the copies of this Agreement signed by all the parties shall be delivered to the Borrower and the Administrative
Agent. This Agreement may, upon execution, be delivered by facsimile or electronic mail, which shall be deemed for all purposes
to be an original signature.

 

10.9Severability.
Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective
to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition
or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.
Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this Section, if and to the extent that the enforceability of any provisions in this
Agreement relating to Defaulting Lenders shall be limited by Debtor Relief Laws, as determined in good faith by the Administrative
Agent, then such provisions shall be deemed to be in effect only to the extent not so limited.

10.16Confidentiality.
Each Agent and Lender agrees to take normal and reasonable precautions to maintain the confidentiality of information provided
to it by the Borrower or any Subsidiary in connection with this Agreement (and, if delivered after the date of this Agreement,
designated in writing as confidential); provided, however, that any such Person may disclose such information (a)
at the request of any regulatory authority having supervisory jurisdiction over it or in connection with an examination of such
Person by any such authority or the request of any rating agency requiring access to a Lender’s portfolio, (b) pursuant to
subpoena or other court process, (c) when required to do so in accordance with the provisions of any applicable law, (d) at the

than as a result of a disclosure by such Person or agent of such Person or a disclosure known to such Person or agent of such Person
to have been made by any person or entity to which such Person or agent has delivered such confidential information, (g) which
becomes available to such Person from a source other than the Borrower or any Subsidiary (provided that such source is not known
to such Person to be bound by a duty of confidentiality to the Borrower or any Subsidiary), (h) subject to an agreement containing
provisions substantially the same as those of this Section 10.16, to any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to
any swap or derivative transaction relating to the Borrower and its obligations or (i) to any Participant or Assignee or potential
Participant or Assignee (each, a “Transferee”) or any pledgee (or prospective pledgee) (each, a “Pledgee”)

loans and similar extensions of credit in the ordinary course of its business; provided that such Transferee or Pledgee agrees
in writing to comply with the provisions of this Section 10.16.

 

10.17USA
Patriot Act. Each Lender hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of
Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Patriot Act”), it is required to obtain, verify and record
information that identifies the Borrower, which information includes the name and address of the Borrower and other information
that will allow such Lender to identify the Borrower in accordance with the Patriot Act.

10.19Interest
Adjustment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the rate of interest payable shall never

10.20Errors
and Omissions. The Borrower hereby consents and agrees that in the event any of the documents evidencing and/or securing the
Loans misstate or inaccurately reflect the true and correct terms and provisions of the Loans and said misstatement or inaccuracy
is due to the unilateral mistake on the part of a Lender, mutual mistake on the part of a Lender and the Borrower or clerical error,
then in such event the Borrower shall, upon request of the Administrative Agent and in order to correct such misstatement or inaccuracy,
execute such new documents as the Administrative Agent may deem necessary to remedy said inaccuracy or mistake, provided however,
such obligation on behalf of the Borrower shall not extend to the execution of any new or redrafted document which materially and
adversely adds to or changes the obligations of the Borrower beyond those set forth in or contemplated by the terms hereof. The
Borrower agrees to execute all such other and further documents as may or shall be reasonably necessary, as determined solely by
the Administrative Agent, in order to give effect to the documents executed (whether in connection with the Loans or any future
loan) and so as to confirm the transaction. The Borrower agrees to comply with the reasonable requirements of the Administrative
Agent within ten (10) days after written notice. Upon the Borrower failing or refusing to comply with the terms and provisions
of this Section, such failure shall constitute a default by the Borrower under this Agreement and thereupon, the Lenders shall
have all the rights and remedies against the Borrower as otherwise specified in this Agreement and other documents by reason of
a default.

 

10.21Replacement
Documents. Upon receipt of an affidavit of an officer of the Administrative Agent as to the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation
of any Loan Document or any other security document(s) which is not of public record and, in the case of any such destruction or
mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of any Loan Document or other document(s), the Borrower will issue, in lieu thereof,
a replacement note or other document(s) in the same principal amount thereof and otherwise of like tenor.

 

10.22 Right
of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender and each of their respective Affiliates
is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, to set off and apply
any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any time held and other
obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing by such Lender or any such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of
the Borrower or any other Loan Party against any and all of the obligations of the Borrower or such Loan Party now or hereafter
existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to such Lender or their respective Affiliates, irrespective of whether
or not such Lender, or Affiliate shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such obligations
of the Borrower or such Loan Party may be contingent or unmatured, secured or unsecured, or are owed to a branch, office or Affiliate
of such Lender or different from the branch, office or Affiliate holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness; provided
that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (a) all amounts so set off shall be
paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.9
and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the
benefit of the Administrative Agent, and the Lenders, and (b) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Administrative
Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Secured Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised
such right of setoff. The rights of each Lender, and their respective Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other rights
and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender, or their respective Affiliates may have. Each Lender and agrees
to notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent promptly after any such setoff and application, provided that the failure to
give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.

one or more of them, as well as all claims by Lender against Grantor or any one or more of them, whether now existing or hereafter

	AMENDED AND RESTATED CONTINUING GENERAL SECURITY AGREEMENT
	(continued)	Page - 3  -

 

GRANTOR’S REPRESENTATIONS AND
WARRANTIES. Grantor warrants that: (A) this Agreement is executed at Grantor’s request and not at the request of Lender;
and (B) Grantor has the full right, power and authority to enter into this Agreement and to pledge the Collateral to Lender.

 

GRANTOR’S ADDITIONAL WAIVERS.
Grantor waives all requirements of presentment, protest, demand, and notice of dishonor or non-payment to Grantor or any other
party to the Indebtedness or the Collateral. Lender may do any of the following with respect to any obligation of Grantor without
first obtaining the consent of Grantor: (A) grant any extension of time for any payment, (B) grant any renewal, (C) permit any
modification of payment terms or other terms, provided such modification is not adverse to Grantor, or (D) exchange or release
any Collateral or other security. No such act or failure to act shall affect Lender's rights against Grantor or the Collateral.

 

RIGHT OF SETOFF. To the extent permitted
by applicable law, Lender reserves a right of setoff in all Grantor's accounts with Lender (whether checking, savings, or some
other account and whether evidenced by a certificate of deposit). This includes all accounts Grantor holds jointly with someone
else and all accounts Grantor may open in the future. However, this does not include any IRA or Keogh accounts, or any trust accounts
for which setoff would be prohibited by law. Grantor authorizes Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable law, to charge or
setoff all sums owing on the Indebtedness against any and all such accounts, and, at Lender's option, upon an Event of Default,
to administratively freeze all such accounts to allow Lender to protect Lender's charge and setoff rights provided in this paragraph.

 

GRANTOR'S REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES
WITH RESPECT TO THE COLLATERAL. With respect to the Collateral, Grantor represents and promises to Lender that:

 

Perfection of Security Interest.
Grantor agrees to take whatever actions are reasonably requested by Lender to perfect and continue Lender's security interest in
the Collateral. Upon request of Lender, Grantor will deliver to Lender any and all of the documents evidencing or constituting
the Collateral, and Grantor will note Lender's interest upon any and all chattel paper and instruments if not delivered to Lender
for possession by Lender.

 

Notices to Lender. Grantor
will promptly notify Lender in writing at Lender's address shown above (or such other addresses as Lender may designate from time
to time) prior to any (1) change in Grantor's name; (2) change in Grantor's assumed business name(s); (3) change in the management
of any entity Grantor; (4) change in the authorized signer(s); (5) change in Grantor's principal office address; (6) change in
Grantor's state of organization; (7) conversion of Grantor to a new or different type of business entity; or (8) change in any
other aspect of Grantor that directly or indirectly relates to any agreements between Grantor and Lender. No change in Grantor's
name or state of organization will take effect until after Lender has received notice.

	(continued)	Page - 4  -

 

No Violation. The execution
and delivery of this Agreement will not violate any law or agreement governing Grantor or to which Grantor is a party, and its
certificate or articles of incorporation and bylaws do not prohibit any term or condition of this Agreement.

 

Enforceability of Collateral.
To the extent the Collateral consists of accounts, chattel paper, or general intangibles, as defined by the Uniform Commercial
Code, the Collateral is enforceable in accordance with its terms, is genuine, and fully complies with all applicable laws and regulations
concerning form, content and manner of preparation and execution, and all persons appearing to be obligated on the Collateral have
authority and capacity to contract and are in fact obligated as they appear to be on the Collateral. At the time any account becomes
subject to a security interest in favor of Lender, the account shall be a good and valid account representing an undisputed, bona
fide indebtedness incurred by the account debtor, for merchandise held subject to delivery instructions or previously shipped or
delivered pursuant to a contract of sale, or for services previously performed by Grantor with or for the account debtor. So long
as this Agreement remains in effect, Grantor shall not, without Lender's prior written consent, compromise, settle, adjust, or
extend payment under or with regard to any such Accounts. There shall be no setoffs or counterclaims against any of the Collateral,
and no agreement shall have been made under which any deductions or discounts may be claimed concerning the Collateral except those
disclosed to Lender in writing.

 

Location of the Collateral.
Except in the ordinary course of Grantor's business, Grantor agrees to keep the Collateral (or to the extent the Collateral consists
of intangible property such as accounts or general intangibles, the records concerning the Collateral) at Grantor's address shown
above or at such other locations as are acceptable to Lender. Upon Lender's request, Grantor will deliver to Lender in form satisfactory
to Lender a schedule of real properties and Collateral locations relating to Grantor's operations, including without limitation
the following: (1) all real property Grantor owns or is purchasing; (2) all real property Grantor is renting or leasing; (3) all
storage facilities Grantor owns, rents, leases, or uses; and (4) all other properties where Collateral is or may be located.

 

Removal of the Collateral.
Except for transactions permitted in the “Transactions Involving Collateral” section below, Grantor shall not remove
the Collateral from its existing location without Lender's prior written consent. To the extent that the Collateral consists of
vehicles, or other titled property, Grantor shall not take or permit any action which would require application for certificates
of title for the vehicles outside the State of New York, without Lender's prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld. Grantor shall, whenever requested, advise Lender of the exact location of the Collateral.

 

    	 

    	 	

    
 

	AMENDED AND RESTATED CONTINUING GENERAL SECURITY AGREEMENT
	(continued)	Page - 5  -

 

Transactions Involving Collateral.
Except for inventory sold or accounts collected in the ordinary course of Grantor's business, and as otherwise provided for in
this Agreement and in Sections 7.6(a)-(d) of the Credit Agreement (“Permitted Sales”), Grantor shall not sell, offer
to sell, or otherwise transfer or dispose of the Collateral. While no Event of Default is continuing under this Agreement, Grantor
may sell inventory, but only in the ordinary course of its business and only to buyers who qualify as a buyer in the ordinary course
of business. A sale in the ordinary course of Grantor's business does not include a transfer in partial or total satisfaction of
a debt or any bulk sale. Except for Liens (as defined in the Credit Agreement) permitted by Section 7.3 of the Credit Agreement,
Grantor shall not pledge, mortgage, encumber or otherwise permit the Collateral to be subject to any lien, security interest, encumbrance,
or charge, other than the security interest provided for in this Agreement, without the prior written consent of Lender. This includes
security interests even if junior in right to the security interests granted under this Agreement. Except with respect to Permitted
Sales, unless waived by Lender, all proceeds from any disposition of the Collateral (for whatever reason) shall be held in trust
for Lender and shall not be commingled with any other funds; provided however, this requirement shall not constitute consent by
Lender to any sale or other disposition. Upon receipt, Grantor shall immediately deliver any such proceeds held in trust to Lender.
If any of the Collateral shall be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of by any Grantor in a Permitted Sale, then the security
interest created pursuant to this Agreement in such Collateral shall be released, and the term “Collateral” shall cease
to include the assets or property so released, provided that Grantor is in compliance with the provisions hereof.

 

Title. Grantor represents
and warrants to Lender that Grantor holds good and marketable title to the Collateral, free and clear of all liens and encumbrances
except for the lien of this Agreement and Liens permitted by Section 7.3 of the Credit Agreement. No financing statement covering
any of the Collateral is on file in any public office other than those which reflect the security interest created by this Agreement
or to which Lender has specifically consented. Grantor shall defend Lender's rights in the Collateral against the claims and demands
of all other persons.

 

Repairs and Maintenance.
Grantor agrees to keep and maintain, and to cause others to keep and maintain, the Collateral in good order, repair and condition
at all times while this Agreement remains in effect. Grantor further agrees to pay when due all claims for work done on, or services
rendered or material furnished in connection with the Collateral so that no lien or encumbrance may ever attach to or be filed
against the Collateral.

 

    	 

    	 	

    
 

	AMENDED AND RESTATED CONTINUING GENERAL SECURITY AGREEMENT
	(continued)	Page - 6  -

 

Inspection of Collateral.
Lender and Lender's designated representatives and agents shall have the right at all reasonable times to examine and inspect the
Collateral wherever located.

 

Taxes, Assessments and Liens.
Grantor will pay when due all taxes, assessments and liens upon the Collateral, its use or operation, upon this Agreement, upon
any promissory note or notes evidencing the Indebtedness, or upon any of the other Related Documents. Grantor may withhold any
such payment or may elect to contest any lien if Grantor is in good faith conducting an appropriate proceeding to contest the obligation
to pay and so long as Lender's interest in the Collateral is not jeopardized in Lender's sole opinion. If the Collateral is subjected
to a lien which is not discharged within fifteen (15) days, Grantor shall deposit with Lender cash, a sufficient corporate surety
bond or other security satisfactory to Lender in an amount adequate to provide for the discharge of the lien plus any interest,
costs, reasonable attorneys' fees or other charges that could accrue as a result of foreclosure or sale of the Collateral. In any
contest Grantor shall defend itself and Lender and shall satisfy any final adverse judgment before enforcement against the Collateral.
Grantor shall name Lender as an additional obligee under any surety bond furnished in the contest proceedings. Grantor further
agrees to furnish Lender with evidence that such taxes, assessments, and governmental and other charges have been paid in full
and in a timely manner. Grantor may withhold any such payment or may elect to contest any lien if Grantor is in good faith conducting
an appropriate proceeding to contest the obligation to pay and so long as Lender's interest in the Collateral is not jeopardized.

 

Compliance with Governmental
Requirements. Grantor shall comply promptly in all material respects with all laws, ordinances, rules and regulations of all
governmental authorities, now or hereafter in effect, applicable to the ownership, production, disposition, or use of the Collateral,
including all laws or regulations relating to the undue erosion of highly-erodible land or relating to the conversion of wetlands
for the production of an agricultural product or commodity. Grantor may contest in good faith any such law, ordinance or regulation
and withhold compliance during any proceeding, including appropriate appeals, so long as Lender's interest in the Collateral, in
Lender's opinion, is not jeopardized.

 

Hazardous Substances.
Grantor represents and warrants that, except as could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect (as defined
in the Credit Agreement), the Collateral never has been, and never will be so long as this Agreement remains a lien on the Collateral,
used in violation of any Environmental laws or for the generation, manufacture, storage, transportation, treatment, disposal, release
or threatened release of any Hazardous Substance in violation of any Environmental Laws. The representations and warranties contained
herein are based on Grantor's due diligence in investigation of the Collateral for Hazard Substances. Grantor hereby (1) releases
and waives any future claims against Lender for indemnity or contribution in the event Grantor becomes liable for cleanup or other
costs under any Environmental laws, and (2) agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Lender against any and all claims and losses
resulting from a breach of this provision of this Agreement. This obligation to indemnify shall survive the payment of the Indebtedness
and the satisfaction of this Agreement.

 

    	 

    	 	

    
 

	AMENDED AND RESTATED CONTINUING GENERAL SECURITY AGREEMENT
	(continued)	Page - 7  -

 

Maintenance of Casualty Insurance.
Grantor shall procure and maintain all risks insurance, including without limitation fire, theft and liability coverage together
with such other insurance as Lender may require with respect to the Collateral, in form, amounts, coverages and basis reasonably
acceptable to Lender and issued by a company or companies reasonably acceptable to Lender. Grantor, upon request of Lender, will
deliver to Lender from time to time the policies or certificates of insurance in form satisfactory to Lender, including stipulations
that coverages will not be cancelled or diminished without at least thirty (30) days prior written notice to Lender and not including
any disclaimer of the insurer's liability for failure to give such a notice. Each insurance policy also shall include an endorsement
providing that coverage in favor of Lender will not be impaired in any way by any act, omission or default of Grantor or any other
person. In connection with all policies covering assets in which Lender holds or is offered a security interest, Grantor will provide
Lender with such loss payable or other endorsements as Lender may require. If Grantor at any time fails to obtain or maintain any
insurance as required under this Agreement, Lender may (but shall not be obligated to) obtain such insurance as Lender deems appropriate,
including if Lender so chooses “single interest insurance,” which will cover only Lender’s interest in the Collateral.

 

Application of Insurance Proceeds.
Grantor shall promptly notify Lender of any loss or damage to the Collateral, whether or not such casualty or loss is covered by
insurance. Lender may make proof of loss if Grantor fails to do so within fifteen (15) days of the casualty. All proceeds of any
insurance on the Collateral, including accrued proceeds thereon, shall be held by Lender as part of the Collateral. If Lender consents
to repair or replacement of the damaged or destroyed Collateral, Lender shall, upon satisfactory proof of expenditure, pay or reimburse
Grantor from the proceeds for the reasonable cost of repair or restoration. If Lender does not consent to repair or replacement
of the Collateral, Lender shall retain a sufficient amount of the proceeds to pay all of the Indebtedness, and shall pay the balance
to Granter. Any proceeds which have not been disbursed within six (6) months after their receipt and which Grantor has not committed
to the repair or restoration of the Collateral shall be used to prepay the Indebtedness. Grantor hereby appoints Lender as its
attorney-in-fact with full power and authority to endorse in Grantor's name any check or draft representing the proceeds of any
insurance on the Collateral and to settle or compromise in Grantor's name any claims with respect to such insurance.

 

Insurance Reserves. Lender
may require Grantor to maintain with Lender reserves for payment of insurance premiums, which reserves shall be created by monthly
payments from Grantor of a sum estimated by Lender to be sufficient to produce, at least fifteen (15) days before the premium due
date, amounts at least equal to the insurance premiums to be paid. If fifteen (15) days before payment is due, the reserve funds
are insufficient, Grantor shall upon demand pay any deficiency to Lender. The reserve funds shall be held by Lender as a general
deposit and shall constitute a non-interest-bearing account which Lender may satisfy by payment of the insurance premiums required
to be paid by Grantor as they become due. Lender does not hold the reserve funds in trust for Grantor, and Lender is not the agent
of Granter for payment of the insurance premiums required to be paid by Grantor. The responsibility for the payment of premiums
shall remain Grantor's sole responsibility.

 

    	 

    	 	

    
 

	AMENDED AND RESTATED CONTINUING GENERAL SECURITY AGREEMENT
	(continued)	Page - 8  -

 

Insurance Reports. Grantor,
upon request of Lender, shall furnish to Lender reports on each existing policy of insurance showing such information as Lender
may reasonably request including the following: (1) the name of the insurer; (2) the risks insured; (3) the amount of the policy;
(4) the property insured; (5) the then current value on the basis of which insurance has been obtained and the manner of determining
that value; and (6) the expiration date of the policy. In addition, Grantor shall upon request by Lender (however not more often
than annually) have an independent appraiser satisfactory to Lender determine, as applicable, the cash value or replacement cost
of the Collateral.

 

Financing Statements.
Grantor authorizes Lender to file a UCC financing statement, or alternatively, a copy of this Agreement to perfect Lender's security
interest. At Lender's request, Grantor additionally agrees to sign all other documents that are necessary to perfect, protect,
and continue Lender's security interest in the Property. Grantor will pay all filing fees, title transfer fees, and other fees
and costs involved unless prohibited by law or unless Lender is required by law to pay such fees and costs. Grantor irrevocably
appoints Lender to execute documents necessary to transfer title if there is an Event of Default. Lender may file a copy of this
Agreement as a financing statement. If Grantor changes Grantor's name or address, or the name or address of any person granting
a security interest under this Agreement changes, Grantor will promptly notify the Lender of such change.

 

GRANTOR'S RIGHT TO POSSESSION AND TO
COLLECT ACCOUNTS. Until an Event of Default and except as otherwise provided below with respect to accounts, Grantor may have
possession of the tangible personal property and beneficial use of all the Collateral and may use it in any lawful manner not inconsistent
with this Agreement or the Related Documents, provided that Grantor's right to possession and beneficial use shall not apply to
any Collateral where possession of the Collateral by Lender is required by law to perfect Lender's security interest in such Collateral.
Until otherwise notified by Lender, Grantor may collect any of the Collateral consisting of accounts. At any time and even though
no Event of Default exists, Lender may exercise its rights to collect the accounts and to notify account debtors to make payments
directly to Lender for application to the Indebtedness. If Lender at any time has possession of any Collateral, whether before
or after an Event of Default, Lender shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Collateral
if Lender takes such action for that purpose as Grantor shall request or as Lender, in Lender's sole discretion, shall deem appropriate
under the circumstances, but failure to honor any request by Grantor shall not of itself be deemed to be a failure to exercise
reasonable care. Lender shall not be required to take any steps necessary to preserve any rights in the Collateral against prior
parties, nor to protect, preserve or maintain any security interest given to secure the Indebtedness.

	(continued)	Page - 9  -

 

LENDER'S EXPENDITURES. If any action
or proceeding is commenced that would materially affect Lender's interest in the Collateral or if Grantor fails to comply with
any provision of this Agreement or any Related Documents, including but not limited to Grantor's failure to discharge or pay when
due any amounts Grantor is required to discharge or pay under this Agreement or any Related Documents, Lender on Grantor's behalf
may (but shall not be obligated to) take any action that Lender deems appropriate, including but not limited to discharging or
paying all taxes, liens, security interests, encumbrances and other claims, at any time levied or placed on the Collateral and
paying all costs for insuring, maintaining and preserving the Collateral. All such expenditures incurred or paid by Lender for
such purposes, with the exception of insurance premiums paid by Lender with respect to motor vehicles, but including the payment
of attorneys' fees and expenses, will then bear interest at the rate charged under the Note from the date incurred or paid by Lender
to the date of repayment by Grantor. All such expenses will become a part of the Indebtedness and, at Lender's option, will (A)
be payable on demand; (B) be added to the balance of the Note and be apportioned among and be payable with any installment payments
to become due during either (1) the term of any applicable insurance policy; or (2) the remaining term of the Note; or (C) be treated
as a balloon payment which will be due and payable at the Note's maturity. The Agreement also will secure payment of these amounts.
Such right shall be in addition to all other rights and remedies to which Lender may be entitled upon an Event of Default.

 

DEFAULT. The occurrence and continuance
of an Event of Default under (and as defined in) that certain Credit Agreement between Grantor and Lender of even date herewith
(as same may be amended from time to time) shall constitute an Event of Default hereunder.

 

RIGHTS AND REMEDIES ON DEFAULT.
If an Event of Default occurs under this Agreement, at any time thereafter, Lender shall have all the rights of a secured party
under the New York Uniform Commercial Code. In addition and without limitation, Lender may exercise any one or more of the following
rights and remedies:

 

Accelerate Indebtedness.
Lender may declare the entire Indebtedness, including any prepayment penalty which Grantor would be required to pay, immediately
due and payable, without notice of any kind to Grantor.

 

Assemble Collateral. Lender
may require Grantor to deliver to Lender all or any portion of the Collateral and any and all certificates of title and other documents
relating to the Collateral. Lender may require Grantor to assemble the Collateral and make it available to Lender at a place to
be designated by Lender. Lender also shall have full power to enter upon the property of Grantor to take possession of and remove
the Collateral. If the Collateral contains other goods not covered by this Agreement at the time of repossession, Grantor agrees
Lender may take such other goods, provided that Lender makes reasonable efforts to return them to Grantor after repossession.

 

    	 

    	 	

    
 

	AMENDED AND RESTATED CONTINUING GENERAL SECURITY AGREEMENT
	(continued)	Page - 10  -

  

Sell the Collateral. Lender
shall have full power to sell, lease, transfer, or otherwise deal with the Collateral or proceeds thereof in Lender's own name
or that of Grantor. Lender may sell the Collateral at public auction or private sale. Unless the Collateral threatens to decline
speedily in value or is of a type customarily sold on a recognized market, Lender will give Grantor, and other persons as required
by law, reasonable notice of the time and place of any public sale, or the time after which any private sale or any other disposition
of the Collateral is to be made. However, no notice need be provided to any person who, after Event of Default occurs, enters into
and authenticates an agreement waiving that person's right to notification of sale. The requirements of reasonable notice shall
be met if such notice is given at least ten (10) days before the time of the sale or disposition. All expenses relating to the
disposition of the Collateral, including without limitation the expenses of retaking, holding, insuring, preparing for sale and
selling the Collateral (including legal fees and costs), shall become a part of the Indebtedness secured by this Agreement and
payable from the proceeds of the disposition of the Collateral, and shall be payable on demand, with interest at the rate applicable
to the Revolving Credit Note (as defined in the Credit Agreement) from date of expenditure until repaid.

 

Appoint Receiver. Lender
shall have the right to have a receiver appointed to take possession of all or any part of the Collateral, with the power to protect
and preserve the Collateral, to operate the Collateral proceeding foreclosure or sale, and to collect the Rents from the Collateral
and apply the proceeds, over and above the cost of the receivership, against the Indebtedness. Lender's right to the appointment
of a receiver shall exist whether or not the apparent value of the Collateral exceeds the Indebtedness by a substantial amount.
The right to a receiver shall be given to Lender regardless of the solvency of Grantor without any requirement to give prior notice
to Grantor.

 

Collect Revenues, Apply Accounts.
Lender, either itself or through a receiver, may collect the payments, rents, income, and revenues from the Collateral. Lender
may at any time in Lender's discretion transfer any Collateral into Lender's own name or that of Lender's nominee and receive the
payments, rents, income, and revenues therefrom and hold the same as security for the Indebtedness or apply it to payment of the
Indebtedness in such order of preference as Lender may determine. Insofar as the Collateral consists of accounts, general intangibles,
insurance policies, instruments, chattel paper, choses in action, or similar property, Lender may demand, collect, receipt for,
settle, compromise, adjust, sue for, foreclose, or realize on the Collateral as Lender may determine, whether or not Indebtedness
or Collateral is then due. For these purposes, Lender may, on behalf of and in the name of Grantor, receive, open and dispose of
mail addressed to Grantor; change any address to which mail and payments are to be sent; and endorse notes, checks, drafts, money
orders, documents of title, instruments and items pertaining to payment, shipment, or storage of any Collateral. To facilitate
collection, Lender may notify account debtors and obligors on any Collateral to make payments directly to Lender.

Obtain Deficiency. If
Lender chooses to sell any or all of the Collateral, Lender may obtain a judgment against Grantor for any deficiency remaining
on the Indebtedness due to Lender after application of all amounts received from the exercise of the rights provided in this Agreement.
Grantor shall be liable for a deficiency even if the transaction described in this subsection is a sale of accounts or chattel
paper.

Caption Headings. Caption
headings in this Agreement are for convenience purposes only and are not to be used to interpret or define the provisions of this

Governing Law. This
Agreement will be governed by federal law applicable to Lender and, to the extent not preempted by federal law, the laws of the
State of New York without regard to its conflicts of law provisions. This Agreement has been accepted by Lender in the State of
New York. 

 

Joint and Several Liability.
If there is more than one party executing as Grantor below, then all obligations of Grantor under this Agreement shall be joint
and several, and all references to Grantor shall mean each and every Grantor. This means that each Grantor signing below is responsible
for all obligations in this Agreement. Where any one or more of the parties is a corporation, partnership, limited liability company
or similar entity, it is not necessary for Lender to inquire into the powers of any of the officers, directors, partners, members,
or other agents acting or purporting to act on the entity's behalf, and any obligations made or created in reliance upon the professed
exercise of such powers shall be guaranteed under this Agreement.

 

No Waiver by Lender. Lender
shall not be deemed to have waived any rights under this Agreement unless such waiver is given in writing and signed by Lender.
No delay or omission on the part of Lender in exercising any right shall operate as a waiver of such right or any other right.
A waiver by Lender of a provision of this Agreement shall not prejudice or constitute a waiver of Lender's right otherwise to demand
strict compliance with that provision or any other provision of this Agreement. No prior waiver by Lender, nor any course of dealing
between Lender and Grantor, shall constitute a waiver of any of Lender's rights or of any of Grantor's obligations as to any future
transactions. Whenever the consent of Lender is required under this Agreement, the granting of such consent by Lender in any instance
shall not constitute continuing consent to subsequent instances where such consent is required and in all cases such consent may
be granted or withheld in the sole discretion of Lender.

 

Notices. Any notice required
to be given under this Agreement shall be given in writing, and shall be effective when actually delivered, when actually received
by telefacsimile (unless otherwise required by law), when deposited with a nationally recognized overnight courier, or, if mailed,
when deposited in the United States mail, as first class, certified or registered mail postage prepaid, directed to the addresses
shown near the beginning of this Agreement. Any party may change its address for notices under this Agreement by giving formal
written notice to the other parties, specifying that the purpose of the notice is to change the party's address. For notice purposes,
Grantor agrees to keep Lender informed at all times of Grantor's current address. Unless otherwise provided or required by law,
if there is more than one Grantor, any notice given by Lender to any Grantor is deemed to be notice given to all Grantors.

Power of Attorney. Grantor
hereby appoints Lender as Grantor's irrevocable attorney-in-fact for the purpose of executing any documents necessary to perfect,
amend, or to continue the security interest granted in this Agreement or to demand termination of filings of other secured parties.
Lender may at any time, and without further authorization from Grantor, file a carbon, photographic or other reproduction of any
financing statement or of this Agreement for use as a financing statement. Grantor will reimburse Lender for all expenses for the
perfection and the continuation of the perfection of Lender's security interest in the Collateral. Grantor authorizes Lender to
file a financing statement covering the Collateral.

 

Severability. If a court
of competent jurisdiction finds any provision of this Agreement to be illegal, invalid, or unenforceable as to any person or circumstance,
that finding shall not make the offending provision illegal invalid, or unenforceable as to any other person or circumstance. If
feasible, the offending provision shall be considered modified so that it becomes legal, valid and enforceable. If the offending
provision cannot be so modified, it shall be considered deleted from this Agreement. Unless otherwise required by law, the illegality,
invalidity, or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement shall not affect the legality, validity or enforceability of
any other provision of this Agreement.

be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties, their successors and assigns. If ownership of the Collateral becomes vested
in a person other than Grantor, Lender, without notice to Grantor, may deal with Grantor's successors with reference to this Agreement
and the Indebtedness by way of forbearance or extension without releasing Grantor from the obligations of this Agreement or liability
under the Indebtedness.

 

Survival of Representations
and Warranties. All representations, warranties, and agreements made by Grantor in this Agreement shall survive the execution
and delivery of this Agreement, shall be continuing in nature, and shall remain in full force and effect until such time as Grantor’s

any provision herein to the contrary, the security interest and lien upon the Collateral created hereby is subject and subordinate
to the rights of the United States of America (“Government”) pursuant to that USA Subordination Agreement by Grantor
