    2            LOAN AND TERMS OF
PAYMENT

     

    2.1      
  Promise
to Pay.  Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay Bank
the unpaid principal amount of all Advances hereunder with all interest, fees
and finance charges due thereon as and when due in accordance with this
Agreement.

     

    2.1.1  
   Financing
of Accounts.

     

    (a)           Availability.  Subject
to the terms of this Agreement, Borrower may request that Bank finance specific
Eligible Accounts.  Bank may, in its good faith business discretion,
finance such Eligible Accounts by extending credit to Borrower in an amount
equal to the result of the Advance Rate multiplied by the face amount of the
Eligible Account, or such lesser amount as is requested by Borrower (the
“Advance”).  Bank may, in its sole discretion, change the percentage
of the Advance Rate for a particular Eligible Account on a case by case
basis.  When Bank makes an Advance, the Eligible Account becomes a
“Financed Receivable.”

     

    (b)           Maximum
Advances.  The aggregate face amount of all Financed
Receivables outstanding at any time may not exceed the Facility
Amount.

     

    (c)           Borrowing
Procedure.  Borrower will deliver an Invoice Transmittal for
each Eligible Account it offers.  Bank may rely on information set
forth in or provided with the Invoice Transmittal.

     

    (d)           Credit Quality;
Confirmations.  Bank may, at its option, conduct a credit check
of the Account Debtor for each Account requested by Borrower for financing
hereunder in order to approve any such Account Debtor’s credit before agreeing
to finance such Account.  Bank may also verify directly with the
respective Account Debtors the validity, amount and other matters relating to
the Accounts (including confirmations of Borrower’s representations in Section
5.3) by means of mail, telephone or otherwise, either in the name of Borrower or
Bank from time to time in its sole discretion.

     

    (e)           Accounts
Notification/Collection.  Bank may notify any Person owing
Borrower money of Bank’s security interest in the funds and verify and/or
collect the amount of the Account.

     

    
      
         

      

      
        1

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

     

    (f)           Early
Termination.  This Agreement may be terminated prior to the
Maturity Date or the Refinance Term Loan Maturity Date as follows: (i) by
Borrower, effective three (3) Business Days after written notice of termination
is given to Bank; or (ii) by Bank at any time after the occurrence of an Event
of Default, without notice, effective immediately.  If this Agreement
is terminated (A) by Bank in accordance with clause (ii) in the foregoing
sentence, or (B) by Borrower for any reason, Borrower shall pay to Bank a
termination fee in an amount equal to (i) Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000) plus
(ii) if such termination occurs on or prior to the Maturity Date, an amount
equal to Four Thousand Twenty Seven and 50/100 Dollars ($4,027.50) (collectively
with the fee referred to in clause (i), the “Early Termination
Fee”).  The Early Termination Fee shall be due and payable on
the effective date of such termination and thereafter shall bear interest at a
rate equal to the highest rate applicable to any of the
Obligations.

     

    (g)           Maturity.  All
Obligations outstanding hereunder as of the Maturity Date (other than with
respect to the Refinance Term Loan) shall be immediately due and payable on the
Maturity Date.  All Obligations outstanding hereunder as of the
Refinance Term Loan Maturity Date with respect to the Refinance Term Loan shall
be immediately due and payable on the Refinance Term Loan Maturity
Date.

     

    (h)           Suspension of
Advances.  Bank’s obligation, if any, to finance Eligible
Accounts hereunder will terminate if, in Bank’s sole discretion, there has been
a material adverse change in the general affairs, management, results of
operation, condition (financial or otherwise) or the prospect of repayment of
the Obligations, or there has been any material adverse deviation by Borrower
from Borrower’s Plan.

     

    2.1.2      Refinance Term
Loan.

     

    (a)           Availability.  Bank
previously made the Term Loan to Borrower pursuant to the Original
Agreement.  As of the Effective Date, the outstanding principal amount
of the Term Loan is Eight Hundred Five Thousand Five Hundred Dollars
($805,500).  Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, on
the Effective Date (i) Borrower shall repay Four Hundred Two Thousand Seven
Hundred Fifty Dollars ($402,750) of the outstanding principal amount of the Term
Loan, through a combination of a cash payment and/or with the proceeds of the
first Advance and (ii) Bank shall be deemed to have made a loan to Borrower in
the amount of Four Hundred Two Thousand Seven Hundred Fifty Dollars ($402,750)
(the “Refinance Term
Loan”) which shall be used to refinance the other half of the principal
amount outstanding with respect to the Term Loan.

     

    (b)           Repayment.  The
Refinance Term Loan shall immediately amortize and be payable in equal payments
of principal, plus all accrued and unpaid interest, beginning on November 1,
2010 and continuing on the first (1st) day of each month thereafter through the
Refinance Term Loan Maturity Date.

     

    (c)           Prepayment.  Borrower
shall have the option to prepay all, but not less than all, of the Refinance
Term Loan advanced by Bank under this Agreement, provided Borrower
(a) provides written notice to Bank of its election to prepay the Refinance
Term Loan at least ten (10) days prior to such prepayment, and (b) pays, on
the date of the prepayment (i) all accrued and unpaid interest with respect
to the Refinance Term Loan through the date the prepayment is made;
(ii) all unpaid principal with respect to the Refinance Term Loan; (iii) if
applicable, the Early Termination Fee, and (iv) all other sums, if any,
that shall have become due and payable hereunder with respect to this
Agreement.

     

    (e)           Interest Rate for Refinance
Term Loan.  The principle amount outstanding with respect to
the Refinance Term Loan shall accrue interest at a per annum rate equal seven
percentage points (7.00%), fixed as of the Effective
Date.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, immediately upon the occurrence
and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Refinance Term Loan shall
bear interest at a rate per annum which is five percentage points (5.00%) above
the rate that is otherwise applicable thereto (the “Default
Rate”).  Payment or acceptance of the increased interest rate
provided in this Section is not a permitted alternative to timely payment
and shall not constitute a waiver of any Event of Default or otherwise prejudice
or limit any rights or remedies of Bank.

     

    2.2         Collections,
Finance Charges, Remittances and Fees.  The Obligations with
respect to the Advances shall be subject to the following fees and Finance
Charges.  Unpaid fees and Finance Charges may, in Bank’s discretion,
accrue interest and fees as described in Section 9.2 hereof.

     

    
      
         

      

      
        2

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

     

    2.2.1      Collections.  Collections
will be credited to the Financed Receivable Balance for such Financed
Receivable, but if there is an Event of Default, Bank may apply Collections to
the Obligations in any order it chooses.  If Bank receives a payment
for both a Financed Receivable and a non-Financed Receivable, the funds will
first be applied to the Financed Receivable and, if there is no Event of Default
then existing, the excess will be remitted to Borrower, subject to Section
2.2.7.

     

    2.2.2      Facility
Fee.  A fully earned, non-refundable facility fee of Two
Thousand Five Hundred Dollars ($2,500) is due upon execution of this Agreement
(the “Facility
Fee”).

     

    2.2.3      Finance
Charges.  In computing Finance Charges on the Obligations with
respect to the Advances under this Agreement, all Collections received by Bank
shall be deemed applied by Bank on account of such Obligations on the same
Business Day as receipt of the Collections.  Borrower will pay a
finance charge (the “Finance Charge”) on the Financed Receivable Balance which
Finance Charge shall be equal to the Applicable Rate divided by 360 multiplied by the
number of days each such Financed Receivable is outstanding multiplied by the
outstanding Financed Receivable Balance. The Finance Charge is
payable when the Advance made based on such Financed Receivable is payable in
accordance with Section 2.3 hereof.  After an Event of Default, the
Applicable Rate will increase an additional five percent (5.0%) per annum
effective immediately upon the occurrence of such Event of Default.

     

    2.2.4      Collateral
Handling Fee.  Borrower will pay to Bank a collateral handling fee
equal to one quarter of one percent (0.25%) per month of the Financed Receivable
Balance for each Financed Receivable outstanding based upon a 360 day year (the
“Collateral Handling Fee”);
provided, however, for any Subject Month (as of the first calendar day of
such month), to the extent that Borrower maintained an Adjusted Quick Ratio of
greater than 1.30 to 1.00 at all times during the applicable Testing Month, the
Collateral Handling Fee shall be equal to one tenth of one percent (0.10%) per
month of the Financed Receivable Balance for each Financed Receivable
outstanding based upon a 360 day year.  This fee is charged on a daily
basis which is equal to the Collateral Handling Fee divided by 30, multiplied by
the number of days each such Financed Receivable is outstanding, multiplied by
the outstanding Financed Receivable Balance.  The Collateral Handling Fee
is payable when the Advance made based on such Financed Receivable is payable in
accordance with Section 2.3 hereof.  In computing Collateral Handling Fees
under this Agreement, all Collections received by Bank shall be deemed applied
by Bank on account of Obligations on the same Business Day as receipt of the
Collections.  After an Event of Default, the Collateral Handling Fee will
increase an additional 0.50% effective immediately upon such Event of
Default.

     

    2.2.5      Accounting.  After
each Reconciliation Period, Bank will provide an accounting of the transactions
for that Reconciliation Period, including the amount of all Financed
Receivables, all Collections, Adjustments, Finance Charges, Collateral Handling
Fees and, for the first Reconciliation Period, the Facility Fee.  If
Borrower does not object to the accounting in writing within thirty (30) days it
shall be considered accurate and binding on both parties, absent subsequent
written notice to Borrower.  All Finance Charges and other interest
and fees are calculated on the basis of a 360 day year and actual days
elapsed.

     

    2.2.6      Deductions.  Bank
may deduct fees, Finance Charges, Advances which become due pursuant to Section
2.3, and other amounts due pursuant to this Agreement from any Advances made or
Collections received by Bank.

     

    2.2.7      Lockbox;
Account Collection Services.

     

    (a)           As
and when directed by Bank from time to time, at Bank’s option and at the sole
and exclusive discretion of Bank (regardless of whether an Event of Default has
occurred), Borrower shall direct each Account Debtor (and each depository
institution where proceeds of Accounts are on deposit) to remit payments with
respect to the Accounts to a lockbox account established with Bank or to wire
transfer payments to a cash collateral account that Bank controls (collectively,
the “Lockbox”).  It will
be considered an immediate Event of Default if the Lockbox is not set-up and
operational on the Effective Date.

     

    
      
         

      

      
        3

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

    (b)           Until
such Lockbox is established, the proceeds of the Accounts shall be paid by the
Account Debtors to an address consented to by Bank.  Upon receipt by
Borrower of such proceeds, Borrower shall immediately transfer and deliver same
to Bank, along with a detailed cash receipts journal.  Provided no
Event of Default exists or an event that with notice or lapse of time will be an
Event of Default, within three (3) days of receipt of such amounts by Bank, Bank
will turn over to Borrower (i) the proceeds of the Accounts other than
Collections with respect to Financed Receivables and (ii) the amount of
Collections in excess of the amounts for which Bank has made an Advance to
Borrower, less any amounts due to Bank, such as the Finance Charge, the Facility
Fee, payments due to Bank, other fees and expenses, or otherwise; provided,
however, Bank may hold such excess amount with respect to Financed Receivables
as a reserve until the end of the applicable Reconciliation Period if Bank, in
its discretion, determines that other Financed Receivable(s) may no longer
qualify as an Eligible Account at any time prior to the end of the subject
Reconciliation Period.  This Section does not impose any affirmative
duty on Bank to perform any act other than as specifically set forth
herein.  All Accounts and the proceeds thereof are Collateral and if
an Event of Default occurs, Bank may apply the proceeds of such Accounts to the
Obligations.

     

    2.2.8      Bank
Expenses.  Borrower shall pay all Bank Expenses (including
reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, plus expenses, for documentation and
negotiation of this Agreement) incurred through and after the Effective Date,
when due.

     

    2.3         Repayment of Obligations;
Adjustments.

     

    2.3.1      Repayment.  Borrower
will repay each Advance on the earliest of: (a) the date on which payment is
received of the Financed Receivable with respect to which the Advance was made,
(b) the date on which the Financed Receivable is no longer an Eligible Account,
(c) the date on which any Adjustment is asserted to the Financed Receivable (but
only to the extent of the Adjustment if the Financed Receivable remains
otherwise an Eligible Account), (d) the date on which there is a breach of any
warranty or representation set forth in Section 5.3 with respect to a particular
Financed Received (as referenced therein) or (e) the Maturity Date (including
any early termination). Each payment will also include all accrued Finance
Charges and Collateral Handling Fees with respect to such Advance and all other
amounts then due and payable hereunder.

     

    2.3.2      Repayment
on Event of Default.  When there is an
Event of Default, Borrower will, if Bank demands (or, upon the occurrence of an
Event of Default under Section 8.5, immediately without notice or demand from
Bank) repay all of the Advances.  The demand may, at Bank’s option,
include the Advance for each Financed Receivable then outstanding and all
accrued Finance Charges, the Early Termination Fee,  Collateral
Handling Fee, attorneys’ and professional fees, court costs and expenses, and
any other Obligations.

     

    2.3.3      Debit of
Accounts.  Bank may debit
any of Borrower’s deposit accounts for payments or any amounts Borrower owes
Bank hereunder.  Bank shall promptly notify Borrower when it debits
Borrower’s accounts.  These debits shall not constitute a
set-off.

     

    2.3.4      Adjustments.  If, at any time
during the term of this Agreement, any Account Debtor asserts an Adjustment,
Borrower issues a credit memorandum, or any of the representations and
warranties in Section 5.3 with respect to the Financed Receivable of such
Account Debtor are no longer true in all material respects, Borrower will
promptly advise Bank.

     

    2.4         Power of
Attorney.  Borrower irrevocably appoints Bank and its
successors and assigns as attorney-in-fact and authorizes Bank, to: (a)
following the occurrence of an Event of Default, (i) sell, assign, transfer,
pledge, compromise, or discharge all or any part of the Financed Receivables;
(ii) demand, collect, sue, and give releases to any Account Debtor for monies
due and compromise, prosecute, or defend any action, claim, case or proceeding
about the Financed Receivables, including filing a claim or voting a claim in
any bankruptcy case in Bank’s or Borrower’s name, as Bank chooses; and (iii)
prepare, file and sign Borrower’s name on any notice, claim, assignment, demand,
draft, or notice of or satisfaction of lien or mechanics’ lien or similar
document; and (b) regardless of whether there has been an Event of
Default,  (i) notify all Account Debtors to pay Bank directly; (ii)
receive, open, and dispose of mail addressed to Borrower; (iii) endorse
Borrower’s name on checks or other instruments (to the extent necessary to pay
amounts owed pursuant to this Agreement); and (iv) execute on Borrower’s behalf
any instruments, documents, financing statements to perfect Bank’s interests in
the Financed Receivables and Collateral and do all acts and things necessary or
expedient, as determined solely and exclusively by Bank, to protect
or  preserve, Bank’s rights and remedies under this Agreement, as
directed by Bank.

completion of such other matters, as Bank may reasonably deem necessary or
appropriate, including, without limitation:

  CREATION
OF SECURITY INTEREST

     

    4.1         Grant of
Security Interest.  Borrower hereby grants Bank, to secure the
payment and performance in full of all of the Obligations, a continuing security
interest in, and pledges to Bank, the Collateral, wherever located, whether now
owned or hereafter acquired or arising, and all proceeds and products
thereof.  Borrower represents, warrants, and covenants that the
security interest granted herein shall be a first priority security interest in
the Collateral (subject only to Permitted Liens that may have superior priority
to Bank’s Liens).  If Borrower shall at any time, acquire a commercial
tort claim, Borrower shall promptly notify Bank in a writing signed by Borrower
of the general details thereof and grant to Bank in such writing a security
interest therein and in the proceeds thereof, all upon the terms of this
Agreement, with such writing to be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory
to Bank.

     

    If this
Agreement is terminated, Bank’s Lien in the Collateral shall continue until the
Obligations (other than inchoate indemnity obligations) are repaid in full in
cash.  Upon payment in full in cash of the Obligations and at such
time as Bank’s obligation to make Advances has terminated, Bank shall, at
Borrower’s sole cost and expense, release its Liens in the Collateral and all
rights therein shall revert to Borrower.

    4.2         Authorization
to File Financing Statements.  Borrower hereby authorizes Bank
to file financing statements, without notice to Borrower, with all appropriate
jurisdictions to perfect or protect Bank’s interest or rights hereunder,
including a notice that any disposition of the Collateral, by either Borrower or
any other Person, in violation of this Agreement, shall be deemed to violate the
rights of Bank under the Code.  Any such financing statements may
indicate the Collateral as “all assets of the Debtor” or words of similar
effect, or as being of an equal or lesser scope, or with greater detail, all in
Bank’s discretion.

     

    5         
  REPRESENTATIONS AND
WARRANTIES

     

    Borrower
represents and warrants as follows:

     

    5.1         Due
Organization and Authorization.  Borrower and each of its
Subsidiaries are duly existing and in good standing as a Registered Organization
in their respective jurisdictions of formation and are qualified and licensed to
do business and are in good standing in any jurisdiction in which the conduct of
their respective business or ownership of property requires that they be
qualified except where the failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to
have a material adverse effect on Borrower’s business.  In connection
with this Agreement, Borrower has delivered to Bank a completed certificate signed by Borrower,
entitled “Perfection Certificate”.  Borrower represents and warrants
to Bank that (a) Borrower’s exact legal name is that indicated on the Perfection
Certificate and on the signature page hereof; (b) Borrower is an
organization of the type and is organized in the jurisdiction set forth in the
Perfection Certificate; (c) the Perfection Certificate accurately sets forth
Borrower’s organizational identification number or accurately states that
Borrower has none; (d) the Perfection Certificate accurately sets forth
Borrower’s place of business, or, if more than one, its chief executive office
as well as Borrower’s mailing address (if different than its chief executive
office); (e) Borrower (and each of its predecessors) has not, in the past
five (5) years, changed its jurisdiction of formation, organizational structure
or type, or any organizational number assigned by its jurisdiction; and (f) all
other information set forth on the Perfection Certificate pertaining to Borrower
and each of its Subsidiaries is accurate and complete (it being understood and
agreed that Borrower may from time to time update certain information in the
Perfection Certificate after the Effective Date to the extent permitted by one
or more specific provisions in this Agreement).  If Borrower is not
now a Registered Organization but later becomes one, Borrower shall promptly
notify Bank of such occurrence and provide Bank with Borrower’s organizational
identification number.

     

    The
execution, delivery and performance by Borrower of the Loan Documents to which
it is a party have been duly authorized, and do not (i) conflict with any of
Borrower’s organizational documents, (ii) contravene, conflict with,
constitute a default under or violate any material Requirement of Law,
(iii) contravene, conflict or violate any applicable order, writ, judgment,
injunction, decree, determination or award of any Governmental Authority by
which Borrower or any its Subsidiaries or any of their property or assets may be
bound or affected, (iv) require any action by, filing, registration, or
qualification with, or Governmental Approval from, any Governmental Authority
(except such Governmental Approvals which have already been obtained and are in
full force and effect or (v) constitute an event of default under any
material agreement by which Borrower is bound.  Borrower is not in
default under any agreement to which it is a party or by which it is bound in
which the default could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect
on Borrower’s business.

     

    5.2         Collateral.  Borrower
has good title, has rights in, and the power to transfer each item of the
Collateral upon which it purports to grant a Lien hereunder, free and clear of
any and all Liens except Permitted Liens.   Borrower has no
deposit accounts other than the deposit accounts with Bank, the deposit
accounts, if any, described in the Perfection Certificate delivered to Bank in
connection herewith, or of which Borrower has given Bank notice and taken such
actions as are necessary to give Bank a perfected security interest
therein.  The Accounts are bona fide, existing obligations of the
Account Debtors.

     

    The
Collateral is not in the possession of any third party bailee (such as a
warehouse) except as otherwise provided in the Perfection
Certificate.  None of the components of the Collateral shall be
maintained at locations other than as provided in the Perfection Certificate or
as permitted pursuant to Section 7.2; provided, however, that Bank consents to
Borrower, from time to time, (i) depositing copies of its source code in escrow
in the ordinary course of business and (ii) providing copies of confidential
information concerning Borrower to third parties subject to standard
non-disclosure agreements.

    Borrower
is the sole owner of the Intellectual Property which it owns or purports to own
except for (a) non-exclusive licenses granted to its customers in the ordinary
course of business, (b) over-the-counter software that is commercially available
to the public, and (c) material Intellectual Property licensed to Borrower and
noted on the Perfection Certificate.  Each Patent which it owns or
purports to own and which is material to Borrower’s business is valid and
enforceable, and no part of the Intellectual Property which Borrower owns or
purports to own and which is material to Borrower’s business has been judged
invalid or unenforceable, in whole or in part.  To the best of
Borrower’s knowledge, no claim has been made that any part of the Intellectual
Property violates the rights of any third party except to the extent such claim
would not reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on Borrower’s
business.  Except as noted on the Perfection Certificate, Borrower is
not a party to, nor is bound by, any Restricted License.

     

    5.3         Financed
Receivables.  Borrower represents and warrants for each
Financed Receivable:

     

    (a)           Such
Financed Receivable is an Eligible Account;

     

    (b)           Borrower
is the owner of and has the legal right to sell, transfer, assign and encumber
such Financed Receivable;

     

    (c)           The
correct face amount of such Financed Receivable is reflected on the Invoice
Transmittal and, to the best of Borrower’s knowledge, is not
disputed;

     

    (d)           Payment
of such Financed Receivable is not conditioned or otherwise contingent on any
action of Borrower;

     

    (e)           Such
Financed Receivable is based on an actual sale and delivery of goods and/or
services rendered, is due to Borrower, is not past due or in default as of the
date of the Invoice Transmittal with respect thereto, has not been previously
sold, assigned, transferred, or pledged and is free of any liens, security
interests and encumbrances other than Permitted Liens;

     

    (f)           There
are no Adjustments for which the Account Debtor of such Financed Receivable may
claim any deduction or discount other than those which have been reported to
Bank and the amount of which has been repaid in accordance with Section 2.3.1
hereof;

     

    (g)           Borrower
reasonably believes that the Account Debtor for such Financed Receivable is not
insolvent or subject to any Insolvency Proceedings; and

     

    (h)           Bank
has the right to endorse and/ or require Borrower to endorse all payments
received on such Financed Receivable and all proceeds of Collateral received
thereon.

     

    5.4         Litigation.  Except
as disclosed in the Perfection Certificate, there are no actions or proceedings
pending or, to the knowledge of Borrower’s Responsible Officers, threatened in
writing by or against Borrower or any Subsidiary in which an adverse decision
could reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Change.

     

    5.5         No
Material Deviation in Financial Statements.  All consolidated
financial statements for Borrower and any Subsidiaries delivered to Bank fairly
present in all material respects Borrower’s consolidated financial condition and
Borrower’s consolidated results of operations (subject to normal year-end
adjustments).  There has not been any material deterioration in
Borrower’s consolidated financial condition since the date of the most recent
financial statements submitted to Bank.

     

    5.6         Solvency.  The
fair salable value of Borrower’s assets (including goodwill minus disposition
costs) exceeds the fair value of its liabilities; Borrower is not left with
unreasonably small capital after the transactions in this Agreement; and
Borrower is able to pay its debts (including trade debts) as they
mature.

    5.7         Regulatory
Compliance.  Borrower is not an “investment company” or a
company “controlled” by an “investment company” under the Investment Company Act
of 1940, as amended.  Borrower is not engaged as one of its important
activities in extending credit for margin stock (under Regulations X, T and U of
the Federal Reserve Board of Governors).  Neither Borrower nor any of
its Subsidiaries is a “holding company” or an “affiliate” of a “holding company”
or a “subsidiary company” of a “holding company” as each term is defined and
used in the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 2005.  Borrower has
complied in all material respects with the Federal Fair Labor Standards
Act.  Borrower has not violated any laws, ordinances or rules, the
violation of which could reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse
Change.  None of Borrower’s or any Subsidiary’s properties or assets
has been used by Borrower or any Subsidiary or, to the best of Borrower’s
knowledge, by previous Persons, in disposing, producing, storing, treating, or
transporting any hazardous substance other than legally.  Borrower and
each of its Subsidiaries have obtained all consents, approvals and
authorizations of, made all declarations or filings with, and given all notices
to, all Government Authorities that are necessary to continue their respective
businesses as currently conducted, except for such failures to perform the
foregoing that would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse
Change.

     

    5.8         Subsidiaries.  Borrower
does not own any stock, partnership interest or other equity securities except
for Permitted Investments.

     

    5.9         Tax
Returns and Payments; Pension Contributions.  Borrower and each
Subsidiary have timely filed all required tax returns and reports, and Borrower
and each Subsidiary have timely paid all foreign, federal, state and local
taxes, assessments, deposits and contributions owed by Borrower and each
Subsidiary, except for such failures to perform the foregoing that would not
reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse
Change.  Borrower may defer payment of any contested taxes, provided
that Borrower (a) in good faith contests its obligation to pay the taxes by
appropriate proceedings promptly and diligently instituted and conducted, (b)
notifies Bank in writing of the commencement of, and any material development
in, the proceedings, (c) posts bonds or takes any other steps required to
prevent the governmental authority levying such contested taxes from obtaining a
Lien upon any of the Collateral that is other than a “Permitted
Lien.”  Borrower is unaware of any claims or adjustments proposed for
any of Borrower's prior tax years which could result in additional taxes
becoming due and payable by Borrower other than as disclosed to Bank in
writing.  Borrower has paid all amounts necessary to fund all present
pension, profit sharing and deferred compensation plans in accordance with their
terms (except for such failures to perform the foregoing that would not
reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Change), and Borrower has
not withdrawn from participation in, and has not permitted partial or complete
termination of, or permitted the occurrence of any other event with respect to,
any such plan which could reasonably be expected to result in any liability of
Borrower, including any liability to the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation or
its successors or any other governmental agency.

     

    5.10       Full
Disclosure.  No written representation, warranty or other
statement of Borrower in any certificate or written statement given to Bank, as
of the date such representation, warranty, or other statement was made, taken
together with all such written certificates and written statements given to
Bank, contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a
material fact necessary to make the statements contained in the certificates or
statements not misleading (it being recognized by Bank that (i) the projections
and forecasts provided by Borrower in good faith and based upon reasonable
assumptions are not viewed as facts and that actual results during the period or
periods covered by such projections and forecasts may differ from the projected
or forecasted results and (ii) in the case of a Compliance Certificate, any
minor inaccuracies in the calculation of the financial covenants will not be
deemed to be material unless such inaccuracies cause the calculations to
indicate compliance with a financial covenant when, in fact, Borrower was not in
compliance with such financial covenant).

     

    6         
  AFFIRMATIVE
COVENANTS

operations.  Borrower shall comply, and have each Subsidiary comply,
with all laws, ordinances and regulations to which it is subject, noncompliance
with which could have a material adverse effect on Borrower’s
business.

composition of the Intellectual Property, (B) the registration of any copyright,

Bank, at reasonable times on one Business Days’ notice (unless an Event of
Default has occurred) to audit Borrower’s Collateral, including, but not limited
to, Borrower’s Accounts, at Borrower’s expense (with the charge therefor being
$850 per person per day plus reasonable out-of-pocket expenses); provided,
however, prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default, Borrower shall be
obligated to pay for not more than one (1) audit per year.  After the
occurrence of an Event of Default, Bank may audit Borrower’s Collateral,
including, but not limited to Borrower’s Accounts, at Borrower’s expense and at
Bank’s sole and exclusive discretion and without notification and authorization
from Borrower.

     

    (d)           Upon
Bank’s request, provide a written report respecting any Financed Receivable, if
payment of any Financed Receivable does not occur by its due date and include
the reasons for the delay.

     

    (e)           Provide
Bank with, as soon as available, but no later than twenty (20) days following each

    6.3         Taxes.  Borrower

state, and local taxes or assessments (other than taxes and assessments which
Borrower is contesting in good faith, with adequate reserves maintained in
accordance with GAAP) and will deliver to Bank, on demand, appropriate
certificates attesting to such payments.

     

    6.4         Insurance.  Keep
its business and the Collateral insured for risks and in amounts standard for
companies in Borrower’s industry and location and as Bank may reasonably
request.  Insurance policies shall be in a form, with insurance
providers, and in amounts that are satisfactory to Bank.  All property
policies shall have a lender’s loss payable endorsement showing Bank as lender
loss payee and waive subrogation against Bank.  All liability policies
shall show, or have endorsements showing, Bank as an additional
insured.  All policies (or the loss payable and additional insured
endorsements) shall provide that the insurer shall give Bank at least twenty
(20) days notice before canceling, amending, or declining to renew its
policy.  At Bank’s request, Borrower shall deliver certified copies of
policies and evidence of all premium payments.  Proceeds payable under
any policy shall, at Bank’s option, be payable to Bank on account of any
Obligations due and owing at the time of such payment.  If Borrower
fails to obtain insurance as required under this Section 6.4 or to pay any
amount or furnish any required proof of payment to third persons and Bank, Bank
may make all or part of such payment or obtain such insurance policies required
in this Section 6.4, and take any action under the policies Bank deems
prudent.

Covenant.  Meet the
following financial covenant:

     

    (a)           EBITDA Performance to

two months ended September 30, 2010, Borrower’s EBITDA shall be at least seventy

    6.8         Protection
and Registration of Intellectual Property Rights.

     

    (a)           (i)
Protect, defend and maintain the validity and enforceability of its Intellectual
Property; (ii) promptly advise Bank in writing of material infringements of its
Intellectual Property; and (iii) not allow any Intellectual Property material to
Borrower’s business to be abandoned, forfeited or dedicated to the public
without Bank’s written consent.

     

    (b)           If,
after the Effective Date, Borrower (i) obtains any Patent, registered Trademark,
registered Copyright, registered mask work, or any pending application for any
of the foregoing, whether as owner, licensee or otherwise, or (ii) applies for
any Patent or the registration of any Trademark, then Borrower shall immediately
provide written notice thereof to Bank and shall execute such intellectual
property security agreements and other documents and take such other actions as
Bank shall request in its good faith business judgment to perfect and maintain a
first priority perfected security interest in favor of Bank in such
property.  If Borrower decides to register any Copyrights or mask
works in the United States Copyright Office, Borrower shall: (x) provide
Bank with at least fifteen (15) days prior written notice of Borrower’s intent
to register such Copyrights or mask works together with a copy of the
application it intends to file with the United States Copyright Office
(excluding exhibits thereto); (y) execute an intellectual property security
agreement and such other documents and take such other actions as Bank may
request in its good faith business judgment to perfect and maintain a first

works intended to be registered with the United States Copyright Office; and
(z) record such intellectual property security agreement with the United
States Copyright Office contemporaneously with filing the Copyright or mask work
application(s) with the United States Copyright Office.  Borrower
shall promptly provide to Bank copies of all applications that it files for
Patents or for the registration of Trademarks, Copyrights or mask works,
together with evidence of the recording of the intellectual property security
agreement necessary for Bank to perfect and maintain a first priority perfected
security interest in such property.

     

    (c)           Provide
written notice to Bank within ten (10) days of entering or becoming bound by any
Restricted License (other than over-the-counter software that is commercially
available to the public).  Borrower shall take such steps as Bank
requests to obtain the consent of, or waiver by, any person whose consent or
waiver is necessary for (i) any Restricted License to be deemed
“Collateral” and for Bank to have a security interest in it that might otherwise
be restricted or prohibited by law or by the terms of any such Restricted
License, whether now existing or entered into in the future, and (ii) Bank
to have the ability in the event of a liquidation of any Collateral to dispose
of such Collateral in accordance with Bank’s rights and remedies under this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

Cooperation.  From the Effective Date and continuing through
the termination of this Agreement, make available to Bank, without expense to
Bank, Borrower and its officers, employees and agents and Borrower’s books and
records, to the extent that Bank may deem them reasonably necessary to prosecute
or defend any third-party suit or proceeding instituted by or against Bank with
respect to any Collateral or relating to Borrower.

     

    6.10       Further
Assurances.  Execute any further instruments and take further
action as Bank reasonably requests to perfect or continue Bank’s Lien in the
Collateral or to effect the purposes of this Agreement.  Deliver to
Bank, within five

correspondence, reports, documents and other filings with any Governmental
Authority regarding compliance with or maintenance of Governmental Approvals or
Requirements of Law or that could reasonably be expected to have a material
effect on any of the Governmental Approvals or otherwise on the operations of
Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries.

Dollars ($10,000) to a bailee, and Bank and such bailee are not already parties
to a bailee agreement governing both the Collateral and the location to which

discretion.

not to be subject to the first priority security interest granted herein, or
enter into any agreement, document, instrument or other arrangement (except with
or in favor of Bank) with any Person which directly or indirectly prohibits or

any of Borrower’s or any Subsidiary’s Intellectual Property, except as is
otherwise permitted in Section 7.1 hereof and the definition of “Permitted

Affiliates.  Directly or indirectly enter into or permit to
exist any material transaction with any Affiliate of Borrower, except for (i)
transactions that are in the ordinary course of Borrower’s business, upon fair
and reasonable terms that are no less favorable to Borrower than would be
obtained in an arm’s length transaction with a non-affiliated Person and
transactions permitted pursuant to the terms of Section 7.3; (ii) employment and
similar agreements and other compensation arrangements with members of
Borrower’s management and members of Borrower’s board of directors; and (iii)
the Nicholson/Ramey Subordinated Debt.

     

    7.9         Subordinated
Debt.  (a) Make or permit any payment on any Subordinated Debt,
except under the terms of the Amended and Restated Subordination Agreement and

Bank.

an “investment company” or a company controlled by an “investment company”,
under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, or undertake as one of its
important activities extending credit to purchase or carry margin stock (as

System), or use the proceeds of any Credit Extension for that purpose; fail to
meet the minimum funding requirements of ERISA, permit a Reportable Event or
Prohibited Transaction, as defined in ERISA, to occur; fail to comply with the

successors or any other governmental agency.

     

    8         
  EVENTS OF
DEFAULT

     

    Any one
of the following shall constitute an event of default (an “Event of Default”)
under this Agreement:

     

    8.1         Payment
Default.  Borrower fails to (a) make any payment of principal
or interest on any Credit Extension on its due date, or (b) pay any other
Obligations within three (3) Business Days after such Obligations are due and
payable (which three (3) Business Day cure period shall not apply to payments
due on the Maturity Date or the Refinance Term Loan Maturity
Date).  During the cure period, the failure to make or pay any payment
specified under clause (a) or (b) hereunder is not an Event of Default (but no
Credit Extension will be made during the cure period);

     

    8.2         Covenant
Default.

     

    (a)           Borrower
fails or neglects to perform any obligation in Sections 6.2, 6.3, 6.4, 6.5 or
6.7, or violates any covenant in Section 7; or

     

    
      
         

      

      
        12

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

    (b)           Borrower
fails or neglects to perform, keep, or observe any other term, provision,
condition, covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement or any Loan
Documents, and as to any default (other than those specified in this Section 8)
under such other term, provision, condition, covenant or agreement that can be
cured, has failed to cure the default within ten (10) days after the occurrence
thereof; provided, however, that if the default cannot by its nature be cured
within the ten (10) day period or cannot after diligent attempts by Borrower be
cured within such ten (10) day period, and such default is likely to be cured
within a reasonable time, then Borrower shall have an additional period (which

    9         
  BANK’S
RIGHTS AND REMEDIES

     

    9.1         Rights
and Remedies.  While an Event of Default occurs and is
continuing, Bank may, without notice or demand, do any or all of the
following:

     

    (a)           Declare
all Obligations immediately due and payable (but if an Event of Default
described in Section 8.5 occurs all Obligations are immediately due and payable
without any action by Bank);

     

    (b)           Stop
advancing money or extending credit for Borrower’s benefit under this Agreement
or under any other agreement between Borrower and Bank;

     

    (c)           Demand
that Borrower (i) deposit cash with Bank in an amount equal to the aggregate
amount of any Letters of Credit remaining undrawn, as collateral security for
the repayment of any future drawings under such Letters of Credit, and Borrower
shall forthwith deposit and pay such amounts, and (ii) pay in advance all Letter
of Credit fees scheduled to be paid or payable over the remaining term of any
Letters of Credit;

     

    (d)           Settle
or adjust disputes and claims directly with Account Debtors for amounts, on
terms and in any order that Bank considers advisable and notify any Person owing
Borrower money of Bank’s security interest in such funds and verify the amount
of such account and, if applicable, Borrower shall collect all payments in trust
for Bank and, if requested by Bank, immediately deliver the payments to Bank in
the form received from the Account Debtor, with proper endorsements for
deposit;

     

    (e)           Make
any payments and do any acts it considers necessary or reasonable to protect its
security interest in the Collateral.  Borrower shall assemble the
Collateral if Bank requests and make it available as Bank
designates.  Bank may enter premises where the Collateral is located,
take and maintain possession of any part of the Collateral, and pay, purchase,
contest, or compromise any Lien which appears to be prior or superior to its
security interest and pay all expenses incurred.  Borrower grants Bank
a license to enter and occupy any of its premises, without charge, to exercise
any of Bank’s rights or remedies;

     

    (f)           Apply
to the Obligations any (i) balances and deposits of Borrower it holds, or (ii)
any amount held by Bank owing to or for the credit or the account of
Borrower;

     

    (g)           Ship,
reclaim, recover, store, finish, maintain, repair, prepare for sale, advertise
for sale, and sell the Collateral.  Bank is hereby granted a
non-exclusive, royalty-free license or other right to use, without charge,
Borrower’s labels, Patents, Copyrights, mask works, rights of use of any name,
trade secrets, trade names, Trademarks, and advertising matter, or any similar
property as it pertains to the Collateral, in completing production of,
advertising for sale, and selling any Collateral and, in connection with Bank’s
exercise of its rights under this Section, Borrower’s rights under all licenses
and all franchise agreements inure to Bank’s benefit;

     

    (h)           Place
a “hold” on any account maintained with Bank and/or deliver a notice of
exclusive control, any entitlement order, or other directions or instructions
pursuant to any control agreement or similar agreements providing control of any
Collateral;

     

    (i)           Demand
and receive possession of Borrower’s Books; and

     

    (j)           Exercise
all rights and remedies available to Bank under the Loan Documents or at law or
equity, including all remedies provided by the Code (including disposal of the
Collateral pursuant to the terms thereof).

     

    9.2         Protective
Payments.  If Borrower fails to obtain insurance called for by
Section 6.4 or fails to pay any premium thereon or fails to pay any other amount
which Borrower is obligated to pay under this Agreement or by any other Loan
Document, Bank may obtain such insurance or make such payment, and all amounts
so paid by Bank are Bank Expenses and immediately due and payable, bearing
interest at the then highest applicable rate, and secured by the
Collateral.  Bank will make reasonable effort to provide Borrower with
notice of Bank obtaining such insurance at the time it is obtained or within a
reasonable time thereafter. No payments by Bank are deemed an agreement to make
similar payments in the future or Bank’s waiver of any Event of
Default.

     

    9.3         Bank’s
Liability for Collateral.  So long as Bank complies with
reasonable banking practices and applicable provisions of the Code regarding the
safekeeping of Collateral in possession or under the control of Bank, Bank shall
not be liable or responsible for: (a) the safekeeping of the Collateral; (b) any
loss or damage to the Collateral; (c) any diminution in the value of the
Collateral; or (d) any act or default of any carrier, warehouseman, bailee, or
other Person.  Except as otherwise provided by the Code, Borrower
bears all risk of loss, damage or destruction of the Collateral.

     

    
      
         

      

      
        14

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

     

    9.4         Remedies
Cumulative.  Bank’s failure, at any time or times, to require
strict performance by Borrower of any provision of this Agreement or any other
Loan Document shall not waive, affect, or diminish any right of Bank thereafter
to demand strict performance and compliance herewith or therewith.  No
waiver hereunder shall be effective unless signed by the party granting the
waiver and then is only effective for the specific instance and purpose for
which it is given.  Bank’s rights and remedies under this Agreement
and the other Loan Documents are cumulative.  Bank has all rights and
remedies provided under the Code, by law, or in equity.  Bank’s
exercise of one right or remedy is not an election, and Bank’s waiver of any
Event of Default is not a continuing waiver.  Bank’s delay in
exercising any remedy is not a waiver, election, or acquiescence.

     

    9.5         Demand
Waiver.  Borrower waives demand, notice of default or dishonor,
notice of payment and nonpayment, notice of any default, nonpayment at maturity,
release, compromise, settlement, extension, or renewal of accounts, documents,
instruments, chattel paper, and guarantees held by Bank on which Borrower is
liable.

     

    10          NOTICES.

     

    All
notices, consents, requests, approvals, demands, or other communication by any
party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document must be in writing and shall
be deemed to have been validly served, given, or delivered: (a) upon the earlier
of actual receipt and three (3) Business Days after deposit in the U.S. mail,
first class, registered or certified mail return receipt requested, with proper
postage prepaid; (b) upon transmission, when sent by facsimile transmission; (c)

Borrower may change its address or facsimile number by giving the other party
written notice thereof in accordance with the terms of this Section
10.

     

    11          CHOICE OF LAW, VENUE, JURY
TRIAL WAIVER AND JUDICIAL REFERENCE

     

    California
law governs the Loan Documents without regard to principles of conflicts of
law.  Borrower and Bank each submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of
the State and Federal courts in Santa Clara County, California; provided,
however, that nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to operate to preclude
Bank from bringing suit or taking other legal action in any other jurisdiction
to realize on the Collateral or any other security for the Obligations, or to
enforce a judgment or other court order in favor of Bank.  Borrower
expressly submits and consents in advance to such jurisdiction in any action or
suit commenced in any such court, and Borrower hereby waives any objection that
it may have based upon lack of personal jurisdiction, improper venue, or forum
non conveniens and hereby consents to the granting of such legal or equitable
relief as is deemed appropriate by such court.  Borrower hereby waives
personal service of the summons, complaints, and other process issued in such
action or suit and agrees that service of such summons, complaints, and other
process may be made by registered or certified mail addressed to Borrower at the
address set forth in Section 10 of this Agreement and that service so made shall
be deemed completed upon the earlier to occur of Borrower’s actual receipt
thereof or three (3) days after deposit in the U.S. mails, proper postage
prepaid.

     

    TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY
APPLICABLE LAW, BORROWER AND BANK EACH WAIVE THEIR RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY
CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING OUT OF OR BASED UPON THIS AGREEMENT, THE LOAN
DOCUMENTS OR ANY CONTEMPLATED TRANSACTION, INCLUDING CONTRACT, TORT, BREACH OF
DUTY AND ALL OTHER CLAIMS. THIS WAIVER IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR BOTH PARTIES
TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT.  EACH PARTY HAS REVIEWED THIS WAIVER
WITH ITS COUNSEL.

    WITHOUT
INTENDING IN ANY WAY TO LIMIT THE PARTIES’ AGREEMENT TO WAIVE THEIR RESPECTIVE
RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY, if the above waiver of the right to a trial by jury is
not enforceable, the parties hereto agree that any and all disputes or
controversies of any nature between them arising at any time shall be decided by
a reference to a private judge, mutually selected by the parties (or, if they
cannot agree, by the Presiding Judge of the Santa Clara County, California
Superior Court) appointed in accordance with California Code of Civil Procedure
Section 638 (or pursuant to comparable provisions of federal law if the dispute
falls within the exclusive jurisdiction of the federal courts), sitting without
a jury, in Santa Clara County, California; and the parties hereby submit to the
jurisdiction of such court.  The reference proceedings shall be
conducted pursuant to and in accordance with the provisions of California Code
of Civil Procedure §§ 638 through 645.1, inclusive.  The private judge
shall have the power, among others, to grant provisional relief, including
without limitation, entering temporary restraining orders, issuing preliminary
and permanent injunctions and appointing receivers.  All such
proceedings shall be closed to the public and confidential and all records
relating thereto shall be permanently sealed.  If during the course of
any dispute, a party desires to seek provisional relief, but a judge has not
been appointed at that point pursuant to the judicial reference procedures, then
such party may apply to the Santa Clara County, California Superior Court for
such relief.  The proceeding before the private judge shall be
conducted in the same manner as it would be before a court under the rules of
evidence applicable to judicial proceedings.  The parties shall be
entitled to discovery which shall be conducted in the same manner as it would be
before a court under the rules of discovery applicable to judicial
proceedings.  The private judge shall oversee discovery and may
enforce all discovery rules and order applicable to judicial proceedings in the
same manner as a trial court judge.  The parties agree that the
selected or appointed private judge shall have the power to decide all issues in
the action or proceeding, whether of fact or of law, and shall report a
statement of decision thereon pursuant to the California Code of Civil Procedure
§ 644(a).  Nothing in this paragraph shall limit the right of any
party at any time to exercise self-help remedies, foreclose against collateral,
or obtain provisional remedies.  The private judge shall also
determine all issues relating to the applicability, interpretation, and
enforceability of this paragraph.

    12.1       Successors
and Assigns.  This Agreement binds and is for the benefit of
the successors and permitted assigns of each party.  Borrower may not
assign this Agreement or any rights or obligations under it without Bank’s prior
written consent which may be granted or withheld in Bank’s
discretion.  Bank has the right, without the consent of or notice to
Borrower, to sell, transfer, negotiate, or grant participation in all or any
part of, or any interest in, Bank’s obligations, rights and benefits under this
Agreement, the Loan Documents or any related agreement.

     

    12.2       Indemnification.  Borrower

claimed or asserted by any other party in connection with the transactions
contemplated by the Loan Documents; and (b) all losses or expenses (including

Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.

(including a Bank subsidiary) or in transit to any of them.  At any
time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default,
without demand or notice, Bank may set off the same or any part thereof and
apply the same to any liability or obligation of Borrower even though unmatured
and regardless of the adequacy of any other collateral securing the
Obligations.  ANY AND ALL RIGHTS TO REQUIRE BANK TO EXERCISE ITS
RIGHTS OR REMEDIES WITH RESPECT TO ANY OTHER COLLATERAL WHICH SECURES THE
OBLIGATIONS, PRIOR TO EXERCISING ITS RIGHT OF SETOFF WITH RESPECT TO SUCH
DEPOSITS, CREDITS OR OTHER PROPERTY OF BORROWER, ARE HEREBY KNOWINGLY,
VOLUNTARILY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVED.

     

    12.4       Time of

    12.6       Correction
of Loan Documents.  Bank may correct patent errors and fill in
any blanks in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents consistent with the
agreement of the parties, so long as Bank provides Borrower with written notice
of such correction and allows Borrower at least ten (10) days to object to such
correction.  In the event of such objection, such correction shall not
be made except by an amendment signed by both Bank and Borrower.

     

    12.7       Amendments
in Writing; Integration.  All amendments to this Agreement must
be in writing signed by both Bank and Borrower.  This Agreement and
the Loan Documents represent the entire agreement about this subject matter, and

parties about the subject matter of this Agreement and the Loan Documents merge
into this Agreement and the Loan Documents.

     

    12.8       Counterparts.  This
Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties
on separate counterparts, each of which, when executed and delivered, are an
original, and all taken together, constitute one Agreement.

     

    12.9       Survival.  All
covenants, representations and warranties made in this Agreement continue in
full force until this Agreement has terminated pursuant to its terms and all
Obligations (other than inchoate indemnity obligations and any other obligations
which, by their terms, are to survive the termination of this Agreement) have
been satisfied.  The obligation of Borrower in Section 12.2 to
indemnify Bank shall survive until the statute of limitations with respect to
such claim or cause of action shall have run.

     

    12.10    Confidentiality.  In
handling any confidential information, Bank shall exercise the same degree of
care that it exercises for its own proprietary information, but disclosure of
information may be made: (a) to Bank’s Subsidiaries or Affiliates; (b) to
prospective transferees or purchasers of any interest in the Credit Extensions
(provided, however, Bank shall use its best efforts to obtain such prospective
transferee’s or purchaser’s agreement to the terms of this provision);
(c) as required by law, regulation, subpoena, or other order; (d) to
Bank’s regulators or as otherwise required in connection with Bank’s examination
or audit; (e) as Bank considers appropriate in exercising remedies under the
Loan Documents (provided, however, Bank shall use its best efforts to obtain any
prospective transferee’s or purchaser’s agreement to the terms of this
provision); and (f) to third-party service providers of Bank so long as such
service providers have executed a confidentiality agreement with Bank with terms
no less restrictive than those contained herein.  Confidential
information does not include information that either: (i) is in the public
domain or in Bank’s possession when disclosed to Bank, or becomes part of the
public domain after disclosure to Bank; or (ii) is disclosed to Bank by a third
party, if Bank does not know that the third party is prohibited from disclosing
the information.

     

    Bank may
use confidential information for the development of databases, reporting
purposes, and market analysis so long as such confidential information is
aggregated and anonymized prior to distribution unless otherwise expressly
permitted by Borrower.  The provisions of the immediately preceding
sentence shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

    

    12.11    Attorneys’
Fees, Costs and Expenses.   In any
action or proceeding between Borrower and Bank arising out of or relating to the
Loan Documents, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover its reasonable
attorneys’ fees and other costs and expenses incurred, in addition to any other
relief to which it may be entitled.

     

    12.12    Effect of
Amendment and Restatement.  Except as
otherwise set forth herein, this Agreement is intended to and does completely
amend and restate, without notation, the Original Agreement.  All
security interests granted under the Original Agreement are hereby confirmed and
ratified and shall continue to secure all Obligations under this
Agreement.

     

    12.13    Waiver.  Bank
hereby waives (i) Borrower’s violation of Section 6.7(a) of the Original
Agreement for the April 2010, May 2010, June 2010, July 2010 and August 2010
measuring periods, (ii) Borrower’s violation of Section 6.7(b) of the Original

    ARTICLE
II

    Recitals

     

    WHEREAS,
the Settling MDL Plaintiffs are individuals who participated in the Mare Lease
Program offered by ClassicStar, and allege that they were damaged as a result;
and,

     

    WHEREAS,
the Trustee represents the interests of the Estate of ClassicStar (the “Estate”), and in said role, is
empowered to pursue claims on behalf of the Estate for the benefit of the
creditors of the Estate, which creditors include, among others, certain of the
Settling MDL Plaintiffs as well as other participants in the ClassicStar Mare
Lease Program; and,

     

    WHEREAS,
the Settling MDL Plaintiffs and the Trustee allege, inter alia, that the
defendants in the Litigation encouraged certain participants in the Mare Lease
Program to enter into exchanges of mare lease interests or other interests in
exchange for stock in Gastar Exploration; that Gastar Exploration, through its
former officers, issued stock and made that stock available to facilitate these
exchanges, to conceal a shortage of mare lease interests, and to perpetuate a
fraud scheme; that the availability of this stock was a material factor in
influencing certain prospective participants to participate in the Mare Lease
Program; that the stock was an essential feature of the marketing of the Mare
Lease Program from its inception and through a time period material to their
claims; that the Mare Lease Program was marketed as a combination program to
acquire common stock in Gastar Exploration; and,

     

    WHEREAS,
the Settling MDL Plaintiffs and the Trustee further allege, inter alia, that Gastar
Exploration, through its former officers, entered into transactions whereby
funds diverted from ClassicStar by the defendants in the Litigation were
transferred to Gastar Exploration in return for stock, and that these
transactions were intended to enhance the value of Gastar Exploration stock,
enrich the recipients of the stock, provide stock to compensate persons involved
in the operation of the alleged scheme, and facilitate transactions with mare
lease participants who had been promised the opportunity to receive Gastar
Exploration stock; and,

     

    WHEREAS,
the Gastar Exploration Defendants deny each and every, all and singular, of the
allegations made by the Settling MDL Plaintiffs and the Trustee in the
Litigation, and would at trial demand strict proof thereof; and,

     

    WHEREAS,
the Gastar Exploration Defendants contend that the conduct alleged by the
Settling MDL Plaintiffs and the Trustee, if it occurred, was not for the benefit
of the Gastar Exploration Defendants as alleged, and did not benefit them; and
that therefore any recovery by the Settling MDL Plaintiffs, ClassicStar, and/or
the Trustee is barred by failure to state a claim, want of proof, and/or by
valid and subsisting defenses; and,

     

    WHEREAS,
the Parties, without admitting any liability and without conceding the validity
of any of the positions or arguments advanced by any other Party, desire to
completely and finally settle all disputes embodied in or related to the
Litigation, as well as all claims brought or that could have been brought in the
Litigation; and,

    
      
         

      

      
        5

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

    WHEREAS,
the Parties acknowledge that full, valid, and binding consideration exists for
the execution of this Agreement and that such consideration includes the mutual
promises contained herein;

     

    NOW,
THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual terms, conditions, releases,
warranties, covenants, and agreements contained herein, the Parties enter into
this Agreement and agree as follows.

the rights of the Debtor or the Estate or that could have been asserted on the

(vi) all claims or causes of action against the Released Parties that are now,
or at any time since the commencement of the Bankruptcy could have been, within
the power of the Trustee to assert.  The Trustee hereby covenants not
to sue the Released Parties, or any of them, on the basis of any claim released
herein.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Trustee
agrees that this is a general release and is to be interpreted liberally to
effectuate the maximum protection for the Released Parties against the assertion
or prosecution of claims by, through, or on behalf of the Debtor or the
Estate.

Exploration Defendants, nor shall it extend to Private Consulting Group, Inc.,
Robert L. Keys, Joseph Ramos, or Private Capital Management, Inc. (collectively,
the “Excepted Parties”).

    (b)           Notwithstanding
the preservation of claims against the Excepted Parties, the releases granted to
the Released Parties include and release any claims that the Released Parties
are liable under any legal theory for or relating to the actions or debts of the
Excepted Parties.  This includes but is not limited to a release of
any claim or remedy that may be asserted against the Released Parties under the
theories of respondeat
superior, vicarious liability, joint liability, several liability, actual
agency, apparent agency, ratification, the borrowed servant doctrine, the
Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (RICO), statutory conspiracy,
common law conspiracy, enterprise liability, alter ego, instrumentality,
indemnity, subrogation, aiding and abetting, control person liability, liability
as a transferee, or guaranty.

     

    (c)           Notwithstanding
the foregoing, and by way of clarification, the Settling MDL Plaintiffs and the
Trustee do not release any claim against the Excepted Parties, even if the
Excepted Parties have or contend they have, as a result of such claims, claims
for indemnity, contribution, subrogation, or other claims over against a
Released Party.  This Agreement is intended to release all claims by
the Settling MDL Plaintiffs and the Trustee against the Released Parties
(whether directly against them or indirectly against them), and to have no
effect on the Settling MDL Plaintiffs’ and Trustee’s claims against the Excepted
Parties.

     

    3.4.         Releases by the Gastar Exploration
Defendants.  The Gastar Exploration Defendants (on behalf of
themselves, their predecessors, successors, affiliates, members, and in their
capacities as such, their officers, directors, agents, employees, attorneys, and
assigns, whether present, former, or future) do hereby release, acquit, and
forever discharge the Settling MDL Plaintiffs, the Trustee, and the Debtor, and
each of them (together with their predecessors, successors, affiliates, members,
and in their capacities as such, their officers, directors, agents, employees,
attorneys, and assigns) from any claim, damages, demand, suit, arbitration,
obligation, liability, costs, controversies, or cause of action of any
character, whether known or unknown, fixed or contingent, asserted or
unasserted, actual or potential, and whether arising at common law, equity, or
pursuant to any statute, rule or regulation (including U.S., Australian, or
Canadian federal, state, or provincial statutes, rules and regulations), that
the Gastar Exploration Defendants have or had as of the Release Date or could
have in the future relating to any events that occurred prior to the Release
Date, other than obligations arising under this Agreement.  The Gastar
Exploration Defendants hereby covenant not to sue the entities and individuals
released in this section 3.4, or any of them, on the basis of any claim released
herein.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Gastar
Exploration Defendants agree that this is a general release and is to be
interpreted liberally to effectuate the maximum protection against the assertion
or prosecution of claims by, through, or on behalf of the Gastar Exploration
Defendants.

     

    3.5.         Submission for approval by the
Bankruptcy Court.  No later than the fifth business day after
the last Execution Date, the Trustee shall file an application pursuant to Rule
9019 of the Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure seeking approval of this
Agreement and entry of an order of approval in substantially the form attached
as Exhibit A.  The date on which the approval order, having been
signed by the Court, is entered on the docket of record and distributed through
the Court’s ECF system shall be the “Bankruptcy Court Approval
Date.”

    
      
         

      

      
        8

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

    3.6.         Stipulation of dismissal with
prejudice.  At any time after performance of the payment
obligation set forth in Section 3.7, Gastar Exploration may file an agreed
motion to dismiss the Settling MDL Plaintiffs’ and the Trustee’s claims against
the Gastar Exploration Defendants with prejudice and entry of an order of
dismissal in substantially the form attached as Exhibit B.  The date
on which the order, having been signed by the Court, is entered on the docket of
record and distributed through the Court’s ECF system shall be the “Dismissal Date.”

     

    3.7.         Initial Payment.  No later
than the Initial Payment Deadline Date, Gastar Exploration shall make a one-time
payment of EIGHTEEN MILLION AND NO/100THS DOLLARS ($18,000,000.00), such payment
to be delivered to the recipients designated in Exhibit C and divided amongst
them according to the amounts set forth in Exhibit C.

     

    3.8.         Initial Payment Deadline
Date.  The “Initial Payment Deadline Date” shall be the later
of:  (i) the thirtieth calendar day after the Effective Date, or (ii)
the tenth business day after the Bankruptcy Court Approval Date.

     

    3.9.         Periodic
Payments.  On the first of the sixteen Periodic Payment
Deadline Dates, Gastar Exploration shall make a one-time payment of ONE-HUNDRED
FIFTY THOUSAND AND NO/100THS DOLLARS ($150,000.00), such payment to be delivered
to the recipients designated in Exhibit C and divided amongst them in separate
wires or payments according to the amounts set forth in Exhibit C.  On
each of the following fifteen Periodic Payment Deadline Dates, Gastar
Exploration shall pay TWO-HUNDRED THOUSAND AND NO/100THS DOLLARS ($200,000.00),
such payment to be delivered to the recipients designated in Exhibit C and
divided amongst them in separate wires or payments according to the amounts set
forth in Exhibit C.  The total of these periodic payments shall be
THREE-MILLION ONE-HUNDRED FIFTY THOUSAND AND NO/100THS DOLLARS
($3,150,000.00).

     

    3.10.       Periodic Payment Deadline
Dates.  The first Periodic Payment Deadline Date shall be the
twenty-eighth day of the first month following the Initial Payment Deadline Date
(i.e., if the Initial
Payment Deadline Date is in November 2010, the first Periodic Payment Deadline
Date shall be December 28, 2010).  Thereafter, the twenty-eighth day
of each of the following fifteen months shall also be a Periodic Payment
Deadline Date, for a total of sixteen Periodic Payments.  In a month
where a Periodic Payment Deadline Date falls on a Saturday, Sunday, or holiday
generally observed by major U.S. banks, the Periodic Payment shall be due on the
next day on which major U.S. banks are generally open for business.

     

    3.11.       Notice of payment
defaults.  In the event that Gastar Exploration fails to timely
make a payment required by Section 3.9, the party or parties who did not receive
said payment shall give notice of such payment default to Gastar Exploration in
the manner set forth herein for notices.  Gastar Exploration may cure
any payment default by making such scheduled payment no later than the tenth
calendar day after receipt of notice of the default, or if that day is a
Saturday, Sunday, or holiday generally observed by major U.S. banks, the next
day on which major U.S. banks are generally open for business.

    3.12.       Stipulated
judgment.  Attached as Exhibits D-1 through D-6 to this
Agreement are Stipulated Judgments that are subject to the following
terms.

     

    (a)           The
Settling MDL Plaintiffs and the Trustee may hold the Stipulated Judgments
applicable to their matters but will not file or submit any Stipulated Judgment
with any court, or take any action to enforce any Stipulated Judgment (including
but not limited to filing or abstracting it, issuing any writ of execution or
enforcement, filing any financing statement, filing any report with any credit
bureau, or submitting or disclosing it to any reporting service or publication),
unless and until Gastar Exploration fails to timely cure a payment default after
receipt of the notice required by Section 3.11.  If such a default
occurs and remains uncured after the period for cure elapses, the party to whom
a payment was owed but not received, and only such a party, may present the
Stipulated Judgment applicable to its matter to the United States District Court
for the Eastern District of Kentucky, Lexington Division for execution and
entry.  The parties consent to that Court retaining jurisdiction over
this Agreement for that sole and limited purpose.

     

    (b)           The
total liability under each Stipulated Judgment shall be reduced by each Periodic
Payment and/or by any other form of payment or credit toward the amount of that
Stipulated Judgment.  Any party presenting a Stipulated Judgment for
execution and entry agrees not to take a judgment in excess of the unpaid
balance of the Periodic Payments owed to that party and further agrees not to
attempt to enforce the Stipulated Judgment in excess of amounts that remain due
and unpaid at the time of enforcement.

     

    (c)           Upon
payment in full of the amounts provided in Exhibit C as to that Party, each of
the Settling MDL Plaintiffs and the Trustee (or their counsel) shall mark a copy
of the Stipulated Judgment applicable to its matter as “Cancelled, Null, and
Void”; sign the Stipulated Judgment next to those notations; and return the
marked and signed Stipulated Judgment to Gastar Exploration.

     

    3.13.       Permissible changes to payee designations.  An MDL Plaintiff
or the Trustee may change the payee account designations or payee addresses set
forth on Exhibit C by providing notice to Gastar Exploration.  Such
change shall be effective only for payments due more than fifteen business days
after receipt of the notice.  If Gastar Exploration fails to make a
Periodic Payment in accordance with the most current properly noticed payment
instructions, but do make the payment timely and according to any previous
payment instructions (whether on Exhibit C or any subsequent noticed change),
the failure shall not constitute a payment default entitling any party to
exercise the Stipulated Judgment remedy in Section 3.12.

     

    3.14.       Other terms applicable to Initial
Payment and Periodic Payments.  The Parties understand,
acknowledge, and agree that:

    
      
         

      

      
        10

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

    (a)           The
payment obligations described in this Agreement are general unsecured payment
obligations of Gastar Exploration, and in the event of bankruptcy or
receivership are subordinate to (i) obligations owed by Gastar Exploration and
its affiliates under its Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (dated Oct. 28,
2009, as amended through June 24, 2010), or (ii) any other obligation owed by
Gastar Exploration and its affiliates that is subject to a security interest
extant and perfected prior to the perfection of any security interest arising
out of the Stipulated Judgment provided for in Section 3.12.

     

    (b)           The
payment obligations described herein are exclusive and are not subject to any
additional payment amounts, such as payment of interest or alleged costs, other
than interest that may accrue at the applicable legal rate on a Stipulated
Judgment after entry of same.

     

    (c)           The
payment obligations described herein are not transferable or assignable without
the written consent of Gastar Exploration.

     

    (d)           The
allocation of payments between or among any of the Settling MDL Plaintiffs
and/or the Trustee set forth on Exhibit C may not be altered without the written
consent of Gastar Exploration.

     

    (e)           Once
a payment is made to a payee designated on Exhibit C, the Released Parties have
no further liability or obligation with respect to that payment, and cannot be
made a party to any dispute or claim by a particular plaintiff as to that
plaintiff’s entitlement to a share of the payment made.

     

    (f)           The
payees designated on Exhibit C will submit a completed and signed Form W-9 to
Gastar Exploration at least five calendar days prior to the Initial Payment
Deadline Date.

COUNSEL. 

     

    (b)           THE
RAIFMAN PLAINTIFFS
AGREE TO INDEMNIFY AND HOLD HARMLESS THE RELEASED PARTIES AS TO ANY DISPUTES OR

RESPECT TO THE DIVISION, DISTRIBUTION, OR ALLOCATION OF THE SETTLEMENT PROCEEDS

    (c)           THE
GOYAK PLAINTIFFS AGREE
TO INDEMNIFY AND HOLD HARMLESS THE RELEASED PARTIES AS TO ANY DISPUTES OR

COUNSEL.

     

    (f)           EACH
OF THE SETTLING MDL PLAINTIFFS FURTHER AGREE TO INDEMNIFY AND HOLD HARMLESS THE
RELEASED PARTIES AGAINST ANY CLAIM THAT WAS RELEASED HEREIN, BUT IS ASSERTED
AGAINST A RELEASED PARTY BY A PERSON CLAIMING OR PURPORTING TO CLAIM BY OR
THROUGH THAT MDL PLAINTIFF.

     

    (i)           For
purposes of clarification and illustration only, claims by or through a Settling
MDL Plaintiff include claims alleged by parties that purport to have authority
over what claims can be asserted and/or released by the Settling MDL Plaintiff
against the Released Parties, or that purport to own (by assignment or transfer)
any claim released herein.  Claims by or through a Settling MDL
Plaintiff do not include claims that merely parrot claims asserted by a Settling
MDL Plaintiff, or for purposes of statutes of limitations purport to tack on to
claims asserted by a Settling MDL Plaintiff.

     

    (ii)          For
purposes of further clarification and illustration only, if a claim within the
scope of this Section 3.15(f) (an “Indemnified Claim”) is brought by an Excepted
Party for the benefit of the Settling MDL Plaintiff (or a class of entities in
which the Settling MDL Plaintiff is a member), and such Indemnified Claim is
brought other than by voluntary assignment or transfer of the Indemnified Claim
from the Settling MDL Plaintiff, the indemnification provided by this Section
3.15(f) is intended to be limited to the benefit received by the Settling MDL
Plaintiff pursuant to the Indemnified Claim.

    
      
         

      

      
        12

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

    (iii)         WITHOUT
LIMITATION TO THE FOREGOING, WEST HILLS FARMS LLC AND WALTER E. REMMERS FURTHER
AGREE TO INDEMNIFY AND HOLD HARMLESS THE RELEASED PARTIES AGAINST ANY CLAIM
RELEASED HEREIN THAT MAY BE ASSERTED BY DEBRA REMMERS.

     

    (g)           THE
TRUSTEE, ON BEHALF OF THE ESTATE (AND NOT IN HIS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY), AGREES
THAT THE ESTATE WILL INDEMNIFY AND HOLD HARMLESS THE RELEASED PARTIES AGAINST
ANY CLAIM THAT WAS RELEASED HEREIN, BUT IS ASSERTED AGAINST A RELEASED PARTY BY
A PERSON CLAIMING OR PURPORTING TO CLAIM BY OR THROUGH THE TRUSTEE OR THE
ESTATE.

     

    3.16.       Approval as a condition subsequent for effectiveness.  The
Parties agree to use their reasonable best efforts to obtain the Bankruptcy
Court’s approval for the Agreement.  The Parties agree that if the
Bankruptcy Court does not approve the Agreement within ninety days of the
Effective Date, the Agreement shall be null and void as to all Parties, and all
obligations and releases described herein shall be ineffective and
unenforceable.  The Parties may extend the ninety-day approval period
described in this paragraph by written agreement.

     

    3.17.       Proofs of Claim
Adjustment.  The Raifman Plaintiffs, the Goyak Plaintiffs, the Stanwyck Glen Plaintiffs, the
AA-J Breeding
Plaintiffs, and the Premiere
Thoroughbreds Plaintiffs agree to reduce the dollar amounts of any proofs
of claim they have filed in the Bankruptcy Case dollar-for-dollar by the amount
they receive from Gastar Exploration under this Agreement.  The AA-J Breeding Plaintiffs
further agree also to reduce the dollar amount of their proof of claims filed in
the Bankruptcy Case by the amounts the Trustee seeks to recover from Derby
Stakes, LLC in adversary proceeding number 09-5224, and from Su-Sim, LLC in
adversary proceeding number 09-5203 in exchange for dismissals of those
adversary proceedings.  The obligations in this Section 3.17 are owed
exclusively between and among the Raifman Plaintiffs, the Goyak Plaintiffs, the Stanwyck Glen Plaintiffs, the
AA-J Breeding
Plaintiffs, the Premiere
Thoroughbreds Plaintiffs, and the Trustee, and any dispute concerning
such obligations shall be addressed exclusively to the Bankruptcy Court and
within the Bankruptcy Case.  No other Party to this Agreement is a
necessary or proper party to the resolution of any such dispute.

    4.2.         Ownership of
claims.  Each MDL
Plaintiff represents and

it presently owns, free and

other than interests held by its attorneys.  The Trustee represents and warrants that
he, on behalf of the
Debtor’s Estate, presently
owns, free and clear of any and all liens, encumbrances, rights of control,
pledges, or other burdens, one-hundred percent (100%) of the alleged damages and claims
he releases by this
Agreement, other than
interests held by the Estate’s attorneys.  Each Party further represents and
warrants that, other than such an attorney, no other person or entity owns any
interest in the alleged
damages and claims released, whether by assignment, subrogation, constructive trust, or otherwise.

     

    4.3.         Adequacy of
consideration.  The Parties acknowledge and
agree that full, valid, and binding consideration exists for the execution of
this Agreement and the releases of the Released Parties provided herein, and
that such consideration includes the mutual promises contained
herein.

     

    4.4.         No admission of
liability.  Entry into this Agreement
shall not be construed as an admission of liability or an admission of the
validity of any claim, assertion, counterclaim, or defense on the part of any
Party hereto in any respect.  Each Party expressly acknowledges that
the consideration exchanged herein is exchanged in full accord and satisfaction
of all claims arising out of the Litigation.  Each Party also
expressly acknowledges that each other Party denies any liability for the claims
and defenses asserted in the Litigation, and that each Party is settling this
case to avoid the expense, lost time, and risk associated with continuing
Litigation.

     

    4.5.         Agreement
inadmissible.  This Agreement shall not be
admissible in any action, suit, or proceeding whatsoever, as evidence or as an

obligation conferred upon such Party by this Agreement.

     

    4.6.         Successors and
assigns.  Except as set out more

or with which such Party has merged, consolidated, or reorganized, or to which
it has transferred all or substantially all of its assets.

     

    4.7.         Further
assurances.  The
Parties agree to cooperate and use reasonable efforts to give effect to the
terms and intent of the Agreement, including (without limitation) by executing

dismissal of all matters settled in this Agreement by all courts hearing those
disputes.

    4.8.         Entire agreement and
merger.  The Parties agree that this
Agreement and the documents executed pursuant to it constitute the full, final,
and complete settlement of the Litigation and other matters addressed herein,
and supersedes all other written or oral exchanges, arrangements, or
negotiations between them concerning the subject matter of the Litigation or
this Agreement.  The Parties further agree that there are no
representations, agreements, arrangements, or understandings, oral or written,
concerning the subject matter of this Agreement that are not fully expressed,
merged into, and incorporated herein.  The execution of this Agreement
satisfies and terminates any obligations under the Letter of Intent dated
October 26, 2010, regardless of whether this Agreement may later be voided by
the failure to obtain Bankruptcy Court approval.

     

    4.9.         Reliance.  The Parties acknowledge that
they are not relying upon any statement or representation of any other Party or
its agent or representatives, except as expressly set forth herein, but are
instead relying solely on their own judgment and investigation of the matters at
issue.  Each Party is represented by counsel and has had an
opportunity to obtain all advice necessary to understand and evaluate the
consequences of entering into this Agreement.  The Parties acknowledge
that they rely on their own investigation of the facts in entering into this
Agreement, and the releases described herein are effective notwithstanding any
subsequent discovery of facts in addition to, or different from, those which the
Party knew or believed to be true as of the Release Date.  The Parties
are expressly deemed to
have waived any and all rights that they may have under any statute or common
law principle which would limit the effect of the foregoing release, waiver and
discharge to those claims actually known or suspected to exist on the Release Date.

     

    4.10.       Participation of
counsel.  The Parties acknowledge that
they have had an opportunity to fully develop and discover any and all of their
actual and potential claims that are settled by this Agreement.  The
Parties further acknowledge that they have received advice of counsel in the
negotiation, preparation, drafting, and execution of this Agreement, which was
prepared by the combined efforts of all Parties pursuant to arm’s-length
negotiations.  The rule of “construction against the drafter” shall
not be employed in the interpretation of this Agreement.

     

    4.11.       No advice regarding tax
liability.  Each Party understands and
agrees that he, she, or it is solely and completely responsible for any tax
liability the Party may incur resulting from this Agreement; that it is not
relying on any statements, representations or admissions on the part of any
other Party concerning any tax consequences or tax issues; and that it is each
Party’s responsibility to seek competent tax advice concerning this matter as
needed.

     

    4.12.       Amendments and
modifications.  This Agreement may not be
modified, altered, or changed except upon express written and signed consent of
all Parties in a document that makes specific reference to this Agreement, and,
to the extent necessary, approval of the Bankruptcy Court for the modification,
alteration, or change.  The Parties further covenant and agree that,
in any dispute concerning this Agreement, they will not assert an amendment or
modification except one made in accordance with this
section.

     

    4.13.       Construction and
severability.  This Agreement shall be
construed, in any case where doubt may arise, in such a manner as to be deemed
lawful and fully enforceable.  The language of all parts of this
Agreement shall in all cases be construed as a whole, according to its fair
meaning.  In the event any part of this Agreement is found to be void,
voidable, or unenforceable, then it is the intention of the Parties that such
part be severed and the other provisions shall remain fully valid and
enforceable.

    4.15.       Publicity and
agreement not to
defame.

     

    (a)          Each Party agrees that that it shall not
directly or indirectly defame or make false statements concerning any other
Party to this Agreement, or their services, businesses, or
personnel.

     

    (b)          Each Party acknowledges and agrees that
the Parties have decided to enter into this Agreement to avoid the expense and
uncertainty of further litigation.  Each Party acknowledges and agrees
that this Agreement is not intended to be and should not be construed as an
admission of liability or non-liability as to any Party, or an admission of the
validity or invalidity of any claim.  Each Party agrees not to
represent the contrary, publicly or privately, to any person or
entity.

     

    (c)          Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
herein, a Party shall be deemed to be in compliance with its obligations of
non-defamation and confidentiality under this Agreement if, in response to a
bona fide solicitation for comment concerning the Litigation made by a member of
the press or by a financial analyst providing coverage of relevant securities,
the Party discloses only that the Litigation between the Settling MDL Plaintiffs
and the Trustee and the Gastar Exploration Defendants have been resolved through
a settlement to the mutual satisfaction of the Parties.

     

    (d)          Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Party
to this Agreement may, without violating the terms of this Agreement,
communicate on a confidential basis about this Agreement with its own lawyer or
accountant, or make whatever truthful disclosure necessary to comply
with:

     

    (i)           any requirement of U.S. or Canadian
securities law;

     

    (ii)          any requirement of a regulatory agency
or taxing authority having jurisdiction over the Party;

     

    (iii)         any requirement of any exchange on which
securities issued by the Party are traded; or,

     

    (iv)         a valid subpoena issued by a Court of
competent jurisdiction.

    4.16.       Return or disposal of
confidential information produced in the
Litigation.  Certain discovery materials produced in
the Litigation are subject to protective orders pursuant to which the recipient
party must destroy or return designated materials.  As to any such
materials received by a Party to this Agreement from another Party to this
Agreement, the recipient parties agree to exercise the option to return at least
one copy of the materials to the producing parties rather than exercising the
option to destroy all copies of the covered materials.  If one or more
of the Parties is requested by Government authorities to retain or preserve such materials that would
otherwise be subject to return or destruction, the Parties agree to reasonably
cooperate in the fulfillment of such requests, provided that each Party retains the right to seek
protection from a court of competent jurisdiction as to any such
request.  This provision is intended neither to accelerate the
obligation set forth in any applicable protective order to return or destroy
materials nor to broaden the obligation to materials not otherwise covered by a
protective order.  The Parties, through their litigation counsel, may
by mutual agreement vary the procedure provided herein for the return or
disposal of discovery materials.

     

    4.17.       Costs.  The Parties agree that none of them is entitled to recover any additional sum
as attorney’s fees or costs.  Except as set forth herein, each Party
shall bear its own expenses, costs, and attorneys’ fees incurred in connection
with, relating to, or arising out of the Litigation or the
Agreement.

     

    4.18.       Governing
law.  This Agreement shall be
governed by, enforced, and construed in accordance with Texas law, without
regard to the application of Texas’ conflict of laws principles.  With
respect to the obligations and rights of the Trustee, Texas law so governs
except to the extent overridden by applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy
Code.

     

    4.19.       Disputes.  If a dispute arises under this
Agreement prior to the termination of the Bankruptcy Case, and the Trustee is a
necessary party to said dispute, the forum for the dispute shall be brought in
the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Eastern District of Kentucky,
Lexington Division.  Any dispute arising under this Agreement to which
the Trustee is not a necessary party, or any dispute arising subsequent to the
termination of the Bankruptcy Case, shall be brought (i) in any federal or state
district court situated in Harris County, Texas, if the action is brought
against a Gastar Exploration Defendant, or (ii) in any federal or state district
court situated in Lexington, Kentucky, if the action is brought against a
Settling MDL Plaintiff.  Notwithstanding the above, entry and
enforcement of any Stipulated Judgments, if permissible under this Agreement,
shall be permitted in the United States District Court for the Eastern District
of Kentucky, Lexington Division, as set forth in Section 3.12.  In any
dispute arising under, relating to, or governed by this Agreement, (i) the
Parties hereby knowingly, voluntarily, and intentionally waive trial by jury;
and (ii) the prevailing Party or Parties shall be
entitled to recover from the other Party or Parties their reasonable costs,
including reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred in resolving the dispute,
notwithstanding the terms of Section 4.17 above.

     

    4.20.       Counterparts.  This Agreement may be
executed in one or more counterparts, all of which together shall be one
instrument, and all of which shall be considered duplicate
originals.

     

    IN
WITNESS WHEREOF, the Parties, through their duly authorized representatives,
