Form of Change of Control Severance Agreement

 Exhibit 10.1 
 CHANGE OF CONTROL SEVERANCE AGREEMENT 
 This Agreement is made _____________ ___, 2006 between
Fremont Michigan InsuraCorp, Inc., a Michigan corporation, (“Company” or “Corporation”) and _____________________ (“Executive”). This Agreement shall become effective upon the date first above written (“Effective
Date”). 
 Factual Background 
 The Executive presently serves as the _____________________________ of the Company. The Board of Directors of the Company (“Board”) has determined that it is in the best interest of the Company and its
shareholders to assure that the Company will have the exclusive dedication of the Executive, notwithstanding the possibility, threat or occurrence of a Change of Control (as defined below), of the Company. The Board believes it is important to
diminish the inevitable distraction of the Executive by virtue of the uncertainties and risks created by a pending or threatened Change of Control and to encourage the Executive’s full attention and dedication to the business of the Company,
currently and in the event of any threatened or pending Change of Control. In order to induce the Executive to remain in the employ of the Company and in consideration of the Executive’s agreeing to remain in the employ of the Company, the
parties desire to specify the severance benefits which shall be due the Executive in the event that his employment with the Company is terminated under specified circumstances after a Change of Control of the Company. Because of the nature of
Company’s business, Executive may acquire valuable confidential information concerning the Company, the Company’s products and programs, or the Company’s customers. 
 Agreement 
 It is therefore agreed: 
 1. Definitions. The following words and terms shall have the meanings set forth below for the purposes of this Agreement: 
 (a) Average Annual Compensation. The Executive’s “Average Annual Compensation” shall be deemed to mean the average
level of compensation paid to the Executive by the Company and any subsidiary of the Company during the most recent three calendar years preceding the Date of Termination, including base salary, bonuses, and Company contributions to 401(k), deferred
compensation, pension and other retirement plans. Annual compensation excludes stock-based compensation. 
 (b) Cause.
Termination of the Executive’s employment for “Cause” shall mean termination because of (i) willful and continued failure to perform substantially the Executive’s duties with the Company or one of its subsidiaries (other
than any such failure resulting from incapacity due to physical or mental illness) after a written demand for substantial performance is delivered to the Executive by the Board which specifically identifies the manner in which the Board believes
that the Executive has not substantially performed the Executive’s duties, or (ii) the willful engaging by the Executive in illegal conduct or gross misconduct which is materially and demonstrably injurious to the Company. For purposes of
this provision, no act or failure to act on the Executive’s part shall be considered “willful” unless done, or omitted to be done, by the Executive in bad faith or without reasonable belief that the Executive’s action or omission
was in the best interest of the Company. Any act, or failure to act, based upon authority given pursuant to a resolution duly adopted by the Board or based upon advice of counsel for the Company shall be conclusively presumed to be done, or omitted
to be done, by the Executive in good faith and in the best interests of the Company. 
  

 1 

 (c) Change of Control. “Change of Control” of the Company shall mean:

 (i) The acquisition by any individual, entity or group (within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) or 14(d)(2) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) (a “Person”) of beneficial ownership (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act) of 25% or more of either (x) the then outstanding
shares of common stock of the Company (the “Outstanding Company Common Stock”) or (y) the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities of the Company entitled to vote generally in the election of directors (the
“Outstanding Company Voting Securities”), provided, however, that for purposes of this subsection (i), the following acquisitions shall not constitute a Change of Control: (aa) any acquisition directly from the Company, (bb) any
acquisition by the Company, (cc) any acquisition by any employee benefit plan (or related trust) sponsored or maintained by the Company or any corporation controlled by the Company or (dd) any acquisition by any corporation pursuant to a transaction
which complies with clauses (x), (y) and (z) of subsection (iii) of this Section (c); or 
 (ii) Individuals
who, as of the date hereof, constitute the Board (the “Incumbent Board”) cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority of the Board, provided, however, that any individual becoming a director subsequent to the date hereof whose
election, or nomination for election by the Company’s shareholders, was approved by a vote of at least a majority of the directors then comprising the Incumbent Board shall be considered as though such individual were a member of the Incumbent
Board, but excluding, for this purpose, any such individual whose initial assumption of office occurs as a result of an actual or threatened election contest with respect to the election or removal of directors or other actual or threatened
solicitation of proxies or consents by or on behalf of a Person other than the Board; or 
 (iii) Consummation of a
reorganization, merger or consolidation or sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company (a “Business Combination”), in each case, unless, following such Business Combination, (x) all or
substantially all of the individuals and entities who were the beneficial owners, respectively, of the Outstanding Company Common Stock and Outstanding Company Voting Securities immediately prior to such Business Combination beneficially own,
directly or indirectly, more than 50% of, respectively, the then outstanding shares of common stock and the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, as the case may be,
of the corporation resulting from such Business Combination (including, without limitation, a corporation which as a result of such transaction owns the Company or all or substantially all of the Company’s assets either directly or through one
or more subsidiaries) in substantially the same proportions as their ownership, immediately prior to such Business Combination of the Outstanding Company Common Stock and Outstanding Company Voting Securities, as the case may be, (y) no Person
(excluding any corporation resulting from such Business Combination or any employee benefit plan (or related trust) of the Company or such corporation resulting from such Business Combination) beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, 25% or more
of, the corporation resulting from such Business Combination or the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities of such corporation except to the extent that such ownership existed prior to the Business Combination and
(z) at least a majority of the members of the board of directors of the corporation resulting from such Business Combination were 

  

 2 

 
members of the Incumbent Board at the time of the execution of the initial agreement, or of the action of the Board, providing for such Business Combination;
or 
 (iv) Approval by the shareholders of the Company of a complete liquidation or dissolution of the Company; or 

(v) the sale of substantially all of the assets and business of the Fremont Insurance Company, a subsidiary the Company. 
 (d) Code. “Code” shall mean the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. 
 (e) Date of Termination. “Date of Termination” shall mean: 
 (i) if the Executive’s employment is terminated for Cause or for Disability, the date specified in the Notice of Termination, and

 (ii) if the Executive’s employment is terminated for any other reason, the date on which a Notice of Termination is
given or as specified in such Notice. 
 (f) Disability. Termination by the Company of the Executive’s employment
based on “Disability” shall mean termination because of any physical or mental impairment which qualifies the Executive for disability benefits under the applicable long-term disability plan maintained by the Company or any subsidiary or,
if no such plan applies, which would qualify the Executive for disability benefits under the Federal Social Security System. 
 (g) Good Reason. Termination by the Executive of the Executive’s employment for “Good Reason” shall mean termination by the Executive following a “Change in Control” of the Corporation based on: 

(i) Without the Executive’s express written consent, the failure to elect or to re-elect or to appoint or to re-appoint the
Executive to the office of ___________________ of the Company or a material adverse change made by the Company in the Executive’s functions, duties or responsibilities in such capacity; 
 (ii) Without the Executive’s express written consent, a material reduction by the Company in the Executive’s base salary, bonus,
incentive compensation or a material reduction in the package of fringe benefits provided to the Executive, taken as a whole; 
 (iii) Without the Executive’s express written consent, the Company requires the Executive to work in an office which is more than 60 miles from the location of the Company’s current principal executive office, except for required
travel on business of the Company to an extent substantially consistent with the Executive’s present business travel obligations; 
 (iv) Any purported termination of the Executive’s employment for Cause, Disability or Retirement which is not effected pursuant to a Notice of Termination satisfying the requirements of paragraph (i) below;
or 
 (v) The failure by the Company, after a Change in Control of the Company, to obtain the assumption of and agreement to
perform this Agreement by any successor as contemplated in Section 11. 
  

 3 

 (h) IRS. IRS shall mean the Internal Revenue Service. 
 (i) Notice of Termination. Any purported termination of the Executive’s employment by the Company for any reason, including
without limitation for Cause, Disability or Retirement, or by the Executive for any reason, including without limitation for Good Reason, shall be communicated by written “Notice of Termination” to the other party affected. For purposes of
this Agreement, a “Notice of Termination” shall mean a dated notice which: 
 (i) indicates the specific termination
provision in this Agreement relied upon; 
 (ii) sets forth in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances claimed to
provide a basis for termination of Executive’s employment under the provision so indicated, unless the termination is made pursuant to Section 8(a) of this Agreement and no reason for termination is required; 
 (iii) specifies a Date of Termination, which shall be not less than thirty (30) nor more than ninety (90) days after such Notice
of Termination is given, except in the case of the Company’s termination of Executive’s employment for Cause; and 
 (iv) is given in the manner specified in Section 14. 
 (j) Retirement. “Retirement” shall mean
voluntary termination by the Executive in accordance with the Company’s retirement policies, including early retirement, generally applicable to the Company’s salaried employees. 
 2. Term of Agreement. 
 The term of
this Agreement (the “Term”) shall commence on the Effective Date and shall continue for a term of three (3) years from the Effective Date. It shall be automatically extended for successive one year terms after that date unless either
party provides a written notice of intent not to extend this Agreement to the other at least ninety days prior to the third anniversary of this Agreement or ninety days prior to each annual anniversary date of this Agreement after the initial three
(3) year term. The notice of intent not to extend to the Executive shall be sent by the President of the Company. If any party gives timely notice that the term will not be extended as of any annual anniversary date, then this Agreement shall
terminate at the conclusion of its remaining term. References within this Section to the term of this Agreement shall refer both to the initial term and successive terms. 
 3. Acknowledgment of Confidential Information. Executive acknowledges that during his employment with Company, he may acquire, be given access to, develop or assist in developing confidential information
regarding the products, property, business and affairs of Company and its subsidiaries, including information concerning Company’s and its subsidiaries agents, producers, policyholders and customers. This confidential information may consist of
concepts, ideas, trade secrets, marketing and sales processes or techniques, pricing arrangements, operating procedures, technical data, policyholder names, addresses, coverages or expiration data, customer names, customer contact persons and
telephone numbers, quotations or other confidential information not generally known or easily ascertainable by the general public concerning Company’s and its subsidiaries business. This information is referred to in this Agreement simply as
“Confidential Information”. 
 4. Restriction on Confidential Information. Executive shall not, during his employment with
Company or at any time after termination of employment (except with the express written 

  

 4 

 
authorization of the Board), use any Confidential Information outside of the scope of his employment by Company. He shall not communicate or disclose orally
or in writing any of the Confidential Information to any person or entity, directly or indirectly, under any circumstances outside the scope of his employment by Company. Upon termination of his employment with Company, he shall promptly return to
Company all written or other tangible evidence of any Confidential Information and any memoranda with respect to that evidence which is in his possession or under his control. 
 5. Non-Compete. During employment with Company and for a period of two years following a termination of his employment pursuant to which the
Executive is paid severance pay in accordance with Section 8(c) of this Agreement, the Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, for himself or for any other person, firm, corporation, partnership, limited liability company or association,
either as a partner, principal, agent, employee, member, officer, director, material beneficial owner, or in any other capacity, conduct or engage in, or become interested in, either wholly or in part, any other property and casualty insurance
company or affiliate of it without the consent of Company. Provided, however, after termination with severance pay, the geographic scope of this non-compete covenant shall be limited to property and casualty insurance business in the State of
Michigan. For purposes of this paragraph, Executive shall be deemed a material beneficial owner of an enterprise if Executive is or becomes the “beneficial owner” (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly,
of securities of the company representing 10% or more of the combined voting power of the company’s then outstanding securities. 
 6. Non-Solicitation of Employees. During employment with Company and for a period of two years following termination of such employment, Executive shall not, in any capacity, recruit or hire, or assist others in recruiting or hiring,
any person who is an employee of or consultant for Company. 
 7. Remedies. 
 (a) Each party shall be liable to the other party for all actual damages resulting from a breach of this Agreement. 
 (b) The Company will suffer material and irreparable damage if the Executive violates Sections 4, 5 and 6 of this Agreement and the
Company would not have an adequate remedy at law for such a violation. Therefore, the Company shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies, to an immediate injunction to restrain any such violation. If any present or future statute
of this State provides protections or remedies relating to proprietary information, confidential information or trade secrets which are greater than the protections and remedies provided by this Agreement, then the Company shall also have the
benefit of such additional statutory protections and remedies. 
 8. Termination. 
 (a) At any time before a Change of Control occurs, the Company shall have the right, upon prior Notice of Termination, to terminate the
Executive’s employment for any reason, and Executive shall have the right, upon prior Notice of Termination, to terminate his employment for any reason. 
 (b) In the event that the Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company or the Executive pursuant to Section 8(a) above,
the Company shall be obligated to make payment of any salary, incentive or other compensation earned prior to the Date of Termination but not yet paid to the Executive and any payment from any employee benefit plan which shall be paid in accordance
with such plan and the continuation of coverage under any insurance program as required under any such benefit plan or which may be required by law. The Executive will also 

  

 5 

 
be entitled to the payment of any pro rata amount of any bonuses if the Date of Termination occurs before December 31, of any fiscal year. The Executive
shall have no right pursuant to this Agreement to compensation or other benefits for any period after the applicable Date of Termination. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if a Change of Control occurs and if the
Executive’s employment with the Company was terminated within four months prior to the date on which the Change of Control occurs, then for all purposes of this Agreement the Executive shall be entitled to receive the severance benefits under
Section 8(c) below. 
 (c) In the event that within two (2) years after a Change of Control (i) the
Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company for any reason other than Cause, Disability, Retirement or the Executive’s death or (ii) such employment is terminated by the Executive for Good Reason, the Company shall:

 (i) Pay to the Executive, in a lump sum within 30 days following the Date of Termination, a cash severance amount equal to
2.0 times the Executive’s Average Annual Compensation; and 
 (ii) Maintain and provide for a period of 24 months
following the Date of Termination, at no cost to the Executive greater than any other employee, the Executive’s continued participation in all group insurance, life insurance, health and accident, disability and other employee benefit plans,
programs and arrangements in which the Executive was entitled to participate immediately prior to the Date of Termination (other than stock option and restricted stock plans of the Company as benefits thereunder are governed by the terms of such
plans), provided that in the event that the Executive’s participation in any plan, program or arrangement as provided in this subparagraph is barred or during such period any such plan, program or arrangement is discontinued or the benefits
under such an agreement are materially reduced, the Company shall arrange to provide the Executive with benefits substantially similar to those which the Executive was entitled to receive under such plans, programs and arrangements immediately prior
to the Date of Termination. The Company’s obligation under this subsection (ii) shall end earlier than 24 months upon the Executive becoming eligible for participation in a group plan substantially comparable to the Company’s benefits
at a cost to the Executive comparable to that paid by the Executive as an employee under the Company’s plans. 
 (d) The
Company shall promptly reimburse the Executive for all legal fees and expenses incurred by the Executive in seeking to obtain or enforce any right or benefit provided by this Agreement in any such event. 
 (e) No termination of employment by the Executive or by the Company shall be effective unless the terminating party shall have delivered a
Notice of Termination, as defined in Section 1(i) of this Agreement, to the other party. 
 9. Nonqualified Deferred Compensation
Omnibus Protection. It is intended that any payment or benefit which is provided pursuant to or in connection with this Agreement which is considered to be nonqualified deferred compensation subject to Section 409A of the Code shall be paid
and provided in a manner, and at such time and in such form, as complies with the applicable requirements of Section 409A of the Code to avoid the unfavorable tax consequences provided therein for non-compliance. In connection with effecting
such compliance with Section 409A of the Code, the following shall apply: 
 (a) Notwithstanding any other provision of
this Agreement, the Company is authorized to amend this Agreement, to delay the payment of any monies and/or provision of any benefits in such manner as may be determined by it to be necessary or appropriate to comply, or to evidence or further
evidence required compliance, with Section 409A of the Code (including any transition or grandfather rules thereunder). 
  

 6 

 (b) Neither the Employee nor the Company shall take any action to accelerate or delay the
payment of any monies and/or provision of any benefits in any manner which would not be in compliance with Section 409A of the Code (including any transition or grandfather rules thereunder). Notwithstanding the foregoing: Payment may be
delayed for a reasonable period in the event the payment is not administratively practical due to events beyond the recipient’s control such as where the recipient is not competent to receive the payment, there is a dispute as to amount due or
the proper recipient of such payment, additional time is needed to calculate the amount payable, or the payment would jeopardize the solvency of the Company. 
 (c) If the Employee is a specified employee of a publicly traded corporation as required by Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code, and
any payment or provision of any benefit hereunder is subject to Section 409A any payment or provision of benefits in connection with a separation from service payment event (as determined for purposes of Section 409A of the Code), as
opposed to another payment event permitted under Section 409A, shall not be made until six months after the Employee’s separation from service (the “409A Deferral Period”). In the event such payments are otherwise due to be made
in installments or periodically during the 409A Deferral Period, the payments which would otherwise have been made in the 409A Deferral Period shall be accumulated and paid in a lump sum as soon as the 409A Deferral Period ends, and the balance of
the payments shall be made as otherwise scheduled. In the event benefits are required to be deferred, any such benefit may be provided during the 409A Deferral Period at the Employee’s expense, with the Employee having a right to reimbursement
from the Company once the 409A Deferral Period ends, and the balance of the benefits shall be provided as otherwise scheduled. 
 10.
Exclusivity of Benefits. The specific arrangements referred to are not intended to exclude any other benefits which may be available to the Executive upon a termination of employment with the Company pursuant to employee benefit plans of the
Company or otherwise. 
 11. Withholding. All payments required to be made by the Company to the Executive shall be subject to
the withholding of such amounts, if any, relating to tax and other payroll deductions as the Company may reasonably determine should be withheld pursuant to any applicable law or regulation. 
 12. Assignability. The Company may assign this Agreement and its rights and obligations in whole, but not in part, to any corporation, insurance
company or other entity with or into which the Company may hereafter merge or consolidate or to which the Company may transfer all or substantially all of its assets, if in any such case said corporation, insurance company or other entity shall by
operation of law or expressly in writing assume all obligations of the Company under this Agreement as fully as if it had been originally made a party to the agreement, but may not otherwise assign this Agreement or its rights and obligations. The
Executive may not assign or transfer this Agreement or any rights or obligations. 
 13. Attorney’s Fees. If any action at law or
in equity (including arbitration) is necessary to enforce or interpret the terms of this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recovery of attorney’s fees, costs and expenses in addition to any other relief to which such party
may be entitled as determined by such court, equity or arbitration proceeding. 
  

 7 

 14. Notice. For the purposes of this Agreement, notices and all other communications provided for
in this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given when delivered or mailed by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, addressed to the respective addresses set forth below:

 15. Amendment; Waiver. No provisions of this Agreement may be modified, waived or
discharged unless such waiver, modification or discharge is agreed to in writing signed by the Executive and such officer or officers as may be specifically designated by the Board of Directors of the Company to sign on its behalf. No waiver by any
party at any time of any breach by any other party of, or compliance with, any condition or provision of this Agreement to be performed by such other party shall be deemed a waiver of similar or dissimilar provisions or conditions at the same or at
any prior or subsequent time. 
 16. Governing Law. The validity, interpretation, construction and performance of this Agreement shall
be governed by the laws of the United States where applicable and otherwise by the substantive laws of the State of Michigan. 
 17.
Nature of Obligations. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall create or require the Company to create a trust of any kind to fund any benefits which may be payable under the Agreement, and to the extent that the Executive acquires a right to
receive benefits from the Company, such right shall be no greater than the right of any unsecured general creditor of the Company. 
 18.
Interpretation and Headings. This Agreement shall be interpreted in order to achieve the purposes for which it was entered into. The section headings are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation
of this Agreement. 
 19. Validity. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement shall not affect the
validity or enforceability of any other provisions of this Agreement, which shall remain in full force and effect. 
 20.
Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original but all of which together will constitute one and the same instrument.

 This SENIOR SECURED, SUPER-PRIORITY DEBTOR-IN-POSSESSION CREDIT AGREEMENT (as the same may be amended,
supplemented, restated or otherwise modified from time to time, this “Agreement”), dated as of September 21, 2006, among THE ROWE COMPANIES, a Nevada corporation (“Rowe Companies”), Rowe Furniture, Inc., a
Virginia corporation (“Rowe Furniture”) and Storehouse, Inc., a Georgia corporation (“Storehouse”), each as a debtor in possession (Rowe Companies, Rowe Furniture and Storehouse are sometimes collectively referred
to herein as the “Borrowers” and individually as a “Borrower”); the other Credit Parties signatory hereto; GENERAL ELECTRIC CAPITAL CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation (in its individual capacity, “GE
Capital”), for itself, as Lender, and as Agent for Lenders; and the other Lenders signatory hereto from time to time. 
 RECITALS

 WHEREAS, on September 18, 2006 (the “Petition Date”), the Borrowers commenced Chapter 11 Case Nos.
06-11142-SSM through 06-11144-SSM (each a “Chapter 11 Case” and collectively, the “Chapter 11 Cases”) by filing separate voluntary petitions for reorganization under Chapter 11, 11 U.S.C. 101 et
seq. (the “Bankruptcy Code”), with the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Eastern District of Virginia (the “Bankruptcy Court”). The Borrowers continue to operate their businesses and manage their properties
as debtors and debtors-in-possession pursuant to Sections 1107(a) and 1108 of the Bankruptcy Code. 
 WHEREAS, prior to the Petition Date,
Lenders provided financing to Borrowers pursuant to that certain Credit Agreement, dated as of January 6, 2006, among the Borrowers, the other credit parties signatory thereto, GE Capital, as Agent and Lender, and the Lenders from time to time
signatory thereto (as amended, modified or supplemented through the Petition Date, the “Pre-Petition Loan Agreement”); 
 WHEREAS, the Borrowers have requested that Lenders provide a senior secured, super-priority revolving credit facility to Borrowers of up to Fifty Million Dollars ($50,000,000) in the aggregate to fund the working capital requirements of the
Borrowers during the pendency of the Chapter 11 Cases and to repay in full all Obligations under, and as defined in, the Pre-Petition Loan Agreement; 
 WHEREAS, Lenders are willing to make certain Post-Petition loans and other extensions of credit to Borrowers of up to such amount upon the terms and conditions set forth herein; 
 WHEREAS, Borrowers have agreed to secure all of their Obligations under the Loan Documents by granting to Agent, for the benefit of Agent and Lenders, a
security interest in and lien upon all of their existing and after-acquired personal and real property; 
 WHEREAS, each of Rowe Properties,
Inc., a California corporation (“Rowe Properties”) and Rowe Diversified, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Rowe Diversified”) is willing to guarantee all of the Obligations of Borrowers to Agent and Lenders under the
Loan Documents and to secure such Obligations by granting to Agent, for the benefit of Agent and Lenders, a security interest in and lien upon all of its existing and after-acquired personal and real property; 
 WHEREAS, the Borrowers’ business is a mutual and collective enterprise and the Borrowers believe that the consolidation of all loans and other
financial accommodations under 

 
this Agreement will enhance the aggregate borrowing powers of the Borrowers and facilitate the administration of the Chapter 11 Cases and their loan
relationship with the Agent and the Lenders, all to the mutual advantage of the Borrowers and their respective Subsidiaries; 
 WHEREAS, each
Borrower acknowledges that it will receive substantial direct and indirect benefits by reason of the making of loans and other financial accommodations to the other Borrowers as provided in this Agreement; 
 WHEREAS, the Agent’s and the Lenders’ willingness to extend financial accommodations to the Borrowers, and to administer each Borrower’s
collateral security therefor, on a combined basis as more fully set forth in this Agreement, is done solely as an accommodation to the Borrowers and at the Borrowers’ request and in furtherance of the Borrowers’ mutual and collective
enterprise; and 
 WHEREAS, capitalized terms used in this Agreement shall have the meanings ascribed to them in Annex A and, for
purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, the rules of construction set forth in Annex A shall govern. All Annexes, Disclosure Schedules, Exhibits and other attachments (collectively, “Appendices”) hereto,
or expressly identified to this Agreement, are incorporated herein by reference, and taken together with this Agreement, shall constitute but a single agreement. These Recitals shall be construed as part of the Agreement. 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants hereinafter contained, and for other good and valuable consideration, the
parties hereto agree as follows: 
  

	 	1.	AMOUNT AND TERMS OF CREDIT 

  

	 	1.1.	Credit Facilities. 

  

	 	(a)	Revolving Credit Facility. 

 (i)
Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, each Revolving Lender agrees to make available to Borrowers from time to time until the Commitment Termination Date its Pro Rata Share of advances (each, a “Revolving Credit Advance”). The
Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Loan of any Revolving Lender shall not at any time exceed its separate Revolving Loan Commitment. The obligations of each Revolving Lender hereunder shall be several and not joint. Until the Commitment Termination
Date, Borrowers may borrow, repay and reborrow under this Section 1.1(a); provided that the amount of any Revolving Credit Advance to be made at any time shall not exceed Borrowing Availability at such time. Borrowing Availability may be
reduced by Reserves imposed by Agent in its reasonable credit judgment. Each Revolving Credit Advance shall be made on notice by Borrower Representative on behalf of the Borrowers to one of the representatives of Agent identified in Schedule
1.1 at the address specified therein. Any such notice must be given no later than (1) 12 noon (New York time) on the Business Day of the proposed Revolving Credit Advance, in the case of an Index Rate Loan, or (2) 12 noon (New York
time) on the date which is three (3) Business Days prior to the proposed Revolving Credit Advance, in the case of 

  

 2 

 
a LIBOR Loan. Each such notice (a “Notice of Revolving Credit Advance”) must be given in writing (by telecopy or overnight courier)
substantially in the form of Exhibit 1.1(a)(i), and shall include the information required in such Exhibit and such other information as may be required by Agent. If the Borrowers desire to have the Revolving Credit Advances bear interest by
reference to a LIBOR Rate, Borrower Representative must comply with Section 1.5(e). 
 (ii) Except as provided in
Section 1.12, the Borrowers shall execute and deliver to each Revolving Lender a note to evidence the Revolving Loan Commitment of that Revolving Lender. Each note shall be in the principal amount of the Revolving Loan Commitment of the
applicable Revolving Lender, dated the Closing Date and substantially in the form of Exhibit 1.1(a)(ii) (each a “Revolving Note” and, collectively, the “Revolving Notes”). Each Revolving Note shall represent
the joint and several obligation of the Borrowers to pay the amount of the applicable Revolving Lender’s Revolving Loan Commitment or, if less, such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all
outstanding Revolving Credit Advances to the Borrowers together with interest thereon as prescribed in Section 1.5. The entire unpaid balance of the aggregate Revolving Loan and all other non-contingent Obligations shall be immediately
due and payable in full in immediately available funds on the Commitment Termination Date. 
 (iii) Anything in this
Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, at the request of Borrower Representative, in its discretion Agent may (but shall have absolutely no obligation to), make Revolving Credit Advances to Borrowers on behalf of Revolving Lenders in amounts
that cause the outstanding balance of the aggregate Revolving Loan to exceed the Borrowing Base (less the Swing Line Loan) (any such excess Revolving Credit Advances are herein referred to collectively as “Overadvances”);
provided that (A) no such event or occurrence shall cause or constitute a waiver of Agent’s, Swing Line Lender’s or Revolving Lenders’ right to refuse to make any further Overadvances, Swing Line Advances or Revolving
Credit Advances, or incur any Letter of Credit Obligations, as the case may be, at any time that an Overadvance exists, and (B) no Overadvance shall result in a Default or Event of Default based on Borrowers’ failure to comply with
Section 1.3(b)(i) for so long as Agent permits such Overadvance to be outstanding, but solely with respect to the amount of such Overadvance. In addition, Overadvances may be made even if the conditions to lending set forth in
Section 2 have not been met. All Overadvances shall constitute Index Rate Loans, shall bear interest at the Default Rate and shall be payable on the earlier of demand or the Commitment Termination Date. Except as otherwise provided in
Section 1.11(b), (1) the authority of Agent to make Overadvances is limited to an aggregate amount not to exceed $5,000,000 at any time, (2) no Overadvance shall remain outstanding for more than ninety (90) consecutive
days, (3) no more than two (2) Overadvances shall be made in any 180 day period, (4) no Overadvance shall cause the aggregate Revolving Loan to exceed the Maximum Amount, and (5) any Overadvance may be revoked prospectively by a
written notice to Agent signed by the Requisite Lenders. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary 

  

 3 

 
herein, the Borrowers shall under all circumstances remain jointly and severally liable for all Overadvances and any other extensions of credit made in
excess of the Borrowing Base or other limitations imposed by the Loan Documents or the Interim or Final Order, and all such Overadvances and other extensions of credit shall constitute part of the Obligations. 
  

	 	(b)	[Intentionally Omitted]. 

  

	 	(c)	Swing Line Facility. 

 (i) Agent
shall notify the Swing Line Lender upon Agent’s receipt of any Notice of Revolving Credit Advance for an Index Rate Loan. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Swing Line Lender may, in its discretion, make available from time to time
until the Commitment Termination Date advances (each, a “Swing Line Advance”) in accordance with any such notice. The provisions of this Section 1.1(c) shall not relieve Revolving Lenders of their obligations to make
Revolving Credit Advances under Section 1.1(a); provided that if the Swing Line Lender makes a Swing Line Advance pursuant to any such notice, such Swing Line Advance shall be in lieu of any Revolving Credit Advance that otherwise
may be made by Revolving Credit Lenders pursuant to such notice. The aggregate amount of Swing Line Advances outstanding shall not exceed at any time the lesser of (A) the Swing Line Commitment and (B) the lesser of the Maximum Amount and
(except for Overadvances) the Borrowing Base, in each case, less the outstanding balance of the Revolving Loan at such time (“Swing Line Availability”). Until the Commitment Termination Date, Borrowers may from time to time borrow,
repay and reborrow under this Section 1.1(c). Each Swing Line Advance shall be made pursuant to a Notice of Revolving Credit Advance delivered to Agent by Borrower Representative on behalf of the Borrowers in accordance with
Section 1.1(a). Any such notice must be given no later than 12 noon (New York time) on the Business Day of the proposed Swing Line Advance. Unless the Swing Line Lender has received at least one Business Day’s prior written notice
from Requisite Lenders instructing it not to make a Swing Line Advance, the Swing Line Lender shall, notwithstanding the failure of any condition precedent set forth in Section 2.2, be entitled to fund that Swing Line Advance, and to
have each Revolving Lender make Revolving Credit Advances in accordance with Section 1.1(c)(iii). Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, the Swing Line Loan shall constitute an Index Rate Loan.
Borrowers shall repay the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Swing Line Loan upon demand therefor by Agent. 
 (ii) The Borrowers shall execute and deliver to the Swing Line Lender a promissory note to evidence the Swing Line Commitment. Such note shall be in the principal amount of the Swing Line Commitment of the Swing Line Lender, dated the
Closing Date and substantially in the form of Exhibit 1.1(c)(ii) (the “Swing Line Note”). The Swing Line Note shall represent the joint and several obligation of the Borrowers to pay the amount of the Swing Line Commitment
or, 

  

 4 

 
if less, the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all outstanding Swing Line Advances together with interest thereon as prescribed in
Section 1.5. The entire unpaid balance of the Swing Line Loan and all other noncontingent Obligations shall be immediately due and payable in full in immediately available funds on the Commitment Termination Date if not sooner paid in
full. 
 (iii) The Swing Line Lender, at any time and from time to time no less frequently than once weekly shall on behalf
of the Borrowers (and each Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes the Swing Line Lender to so act on its behalf) request each Revolving Lender (including the Swing Line Lender) to make a Revolving Credit Advance to the Borrowers (which shall be an
Index Rate Loan) in an amount equal to that Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the principal amount of the Borrowers’ Swing Line Loan (the “Refunded Swing Line Loan”) outstanding on the date such notice is given.
Regardless of whether the conditions precedent set forth in this Agreement to the making of a Revolving Credit Advance are then satisfied, each Revolving Lender shall disburse directly to Agent, its Pro Rata Share of a Revolving Credit Advance on
behalf of the Swing Line Lender prior to 3:00 p.m. (New York time) in immediately available funds on the Business Day next succeeding the date that notice is given. The proceeds of those Revolving Credit Advances shall be immediately paid to the
Swing Line Lender and applied to repay the Refunded Swing Line Loan of the Borrowers. 
 (iv) [Intentionally omitted].

 (v) Each Revolving Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Credit Advances in accordance with
Section 1.1(c)(iii) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (A) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right that such Revolving Lender may have against the Swing
Line Lender, any Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; (B) the occurrence or continuance of any Default or Event of Default; (C) any inability of any Borrower to satisfy the conditions precedent to borrowing set forth in
this Agreement at any time or (D) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing. If any Revolving Lender does not make available to Agent or the Swing Line Lender, as applicable, the
amount required pursuant to Section 1.1(c)(iii), the Swing Line Lender shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Revolving Lender, together with interest thereon for each day from the date of non-payment until such
amount is paid in full at the Federal Funds Rate for the first two Business Days and at the Index Rate thereafter. 
 (d)
Reliance on Notices; Appointment of Borrower Representative. Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall be fully protected in relying upon, any Notice of Revolving Credit Advance, Notice of Conversion/Continuation or similar notice
believed by Agent to be genuine. Agent may assume that each Person executing and delivering any notice in accordance herewith was duly authorized, unless the responsible individual acting thereon for Agent has actual knowledge to the contrary. Each
Borrower hereby 

  

 5 

 
designates Rowe Companies as its representative and agent on its behalf for the purposes of issuing Notices of Revolving Credit Advances and Notices of
Conversion/Continuation, giving instructions with respect to the disbursement of the proceeds of the Loans, selecting interest rate options, requesting Letters of Credit, giving and receiving all other notices and consents hereunder or under any of
the other Loan Documents and taking all other actions (including in respect of compliance with covenants) on behalf of any Borrower or Borrowers under the Loan Documents. Borrower Representative hereby accepts such appointment. Agent and each Lender
may regard any notice or other communication pursuant to any Loan Document from Borrower Representative as a notice or communication from all Borrowers, and may give any notice or communication required or permitted to be given to any Borrower or
Borrowers hereunder to Borrower Representative on behalf of such Borrower or Borrowers. Each Borrower agrees that each notice, election, representation and warranty, covenant, agreement and undertaking made on its behalf by Borrower Representative
shall be deemed for all purposes to have been made by such Borrower and shall be binding upon and enforceable against such Borrower to the same extent as if the same had been made directly by such Borrower. 
 1.2. Letters of Credit. (a) Subject to and in accordance with the terms and conditions contained herein and in Annex B, Borrower
Representative, on behalf of the Borrowers, shall have the right to request, and Revolving Lenders agree to incur, or purchase participations in, Letter of Credit Obligations in respect of each Borrower. 
 (b) On and as of the Closing Date, all letters of credit issued for the account of Borrowers under the Pre-Petition Loan Agreement (the
“Existing Letters of Credit”) shall continue in place as Letters of Credit under this Agreement and shall be subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including, without limitation, Annex B. All obligations
under or in connection with the Existing Letters of Credit shall constitute Letter of Credit Obligations hereunder. 
  

	 	1.3.	Prepayments. 

 (a) Voluntary
Prepayments; Reductions in Revolving Loan Commitments. Borrowers may at any time on at least five (5) Business Days’ prior written notice by Borrower Representative to Agent permanently reduce (but not terminate) the Revolving Loan
Commitment; provided that (i) any such prepayments or reductions shall be in a minimum amount of $5,000,000 and integral multiples of $250,000 in excess of such amount, (ii) the Revolving Loan Commitment shall not be reduced to an
amount less than the amount of the Revolving Loan then outstanding and (iii) after giving effect to such reductions, Borrowers shall comply with Section 1.3(b)(i). In addition, Borrowers may at any time on at least ten
(10) days’ prior written notice by Borrower Representative to Agent terminate the Revolving Loan Commitment; provided that upon such termination, all Loans and other Obligations shall be immediately due and payable in full and all
Letter of Credit Obligations shall be cash collateralized or otherwise satisfied in accordance with Annex B hereto. Any voluntary prepayment and any reduction or termination of the Revolving Loan Commitment must be accompanied by payment of
any LIBOR funding breakage costs in accordance with Section 1.13(b). Upon any such 

  

 6 

 
reduction or termination of the Revolving Loan Commitment, each Borrower’s right to request Revolving Credit Advances, or request that Letter of Credit
Obligations be incurred on its behalf, or request Swing Line Advances, shall simultaneously be permanently reduced or terminated, as the case may be; provided that a permanent reduction of the Revolving Loan Commitment shall not require a
corresponding pro rata reduction in the L/C Sublimit. Each notice of partial prepayment shall designate the Loans or other Obligations to which such prepayment is to be applied. subject to the terms hereof. 
  

	 	(b)	Mandatory Prepayments. 

 (i) If at
any time the aggregate outstanding balances of the Revolving Loan and the Swing Line Loan exceed the lesser of (A) the Maximum Amount and (B) the Borrowing Base, Borrowers shall immediately repay the aggregate outstanding Revolving Credit
Advances to the extent required to eliminate such excess. If any such excess remains after repayment in full of the aggregate outstanding Revolving Credit Advances, Borrowers shall provide cash collateral for the Letter of Credit Obligations in the
manner set forth in Annex B to the extent required to eliminate such excess. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Overadvance made pursuant to Section 1.1(a)(iii) shall be repaid in accordance with Section 1.1(a)(iii).

 (ii) Immediately upon receipt by any Credit Party of any cash proceeds of any asset disposition (including, without
limitation, the Storehouse Chain Sale), Borrowers shall prepay the Loans in an amount equal to all such proceeds, net of (A) commissions and other reasonable and customary transaction costs, fees and expenses properly attributable to such
transaction and payable by Borrowers in connection therewith (in each case, paid to non-Affiliates), (B) transfer taxes, (C) amounts payable to holders of senior Liens on such asset (to the extent such Liens constitute Permitted
Encumbrances hereunder), if any, and (D) an appropriate reserve for income taxes in accordance with GAAP in connection therewith. Any such prepayment shall be applied in accordance with Section 1.3(c). The following shall not be
subject to mandatory prepayment under this clause (ii): (1) proceeds of sales of Inventory in the ordinary course of business and (2) asset disposition proceeds of less than $250,000 in the aggregate in any Fiscal Year. 

(iii) If any Credit Party issues Stock or any debt securities, no later than the Business Day following the date of receipt of the
proceeds thereof, the Borrowers shall prepay the Loans (and cash collateralize Letter of Credit Obligations) in an amount equal to all such proceeds, net of underwriting discounts and commissions and other reasonable costs paid to non-Affiliates in
connection therewith. Any such prepayment shall be applied in accordance with Section 1.3(c). To the extent permitted under Section 6 hereof, the following shall not be subject to prepayment under this clause (iii):
(1) proceeds of Stock issuances to employees of Rowe Companies and its Subsidiaries, and (2) proceeds of Stock issuances to Persons that hold Stock of Rowe Companies in an amount less than $500,000 in the aggregate. 
  

 7 

 (iv) Prepayments from insurance or condemnation proceeds in accordance with
Section 5.4(c) shall be applied in accordance with Section 1.3(c). 
 (c) Application of Certain
Mandatory Prepayments. Any prepayments made by any Borrower pursuant to Sections 1.3(b)(ii), (iii) or (iv) above shall be applied as follows: first, to repay and otherwise satisfy in full in cash all Prior Lender
Obligations, second, to Fees and reimbursable expenses of Agent then due and payable pursuant to any of the Loan Documents; third, to interest then due and payable on the Swing Line Loan; fourth, to the principal balance of the
Swing Line Loan outstanding until the same has been repaid in full; fifth, to interest then due and payable on Revolving Credit Advances; sixth, to the principal balance of Revolving Credit Advances outstanding until the same has been
paid in full; seventh, to any Letter of Credit Obligations to provide cash collateral therefor in the manner set forth in Annex B until all such Letter of Credit Obligations have been fully cash collateralized in the manner set
forth in Annex B. The Revolving Loan Commitment nor the Swing Line Commitment shall be permanently reduced by the amount of any such prepayments. 
 (d) No Implied Consent. Nothing in this Section 1.3 shall be construed to constitute Agent’s or any Lender’s consent to any transaction that is not permitted by other provisions of this
Agreement or the other Loan Documents. 
 1.4. Use of Proceeds. Borrowers shall utilize the proceeds of the Loans which are incurred
on the Closing Date (net of any amounts used on the Closing Date to pay Fees) (a) to repay in full the Prior Lender Obligations, (b) thereafter, (x) for working capital and general corporate purposes including certain fees and
expenses of professionals retained by the Borrowers, subject to the Carve-Out Amount, but excluding in any event the making of any Restricted Payment not specifically permitted by Section 6.13, (y) certain other Pre-Petition
expenses that are approved by the Bankruptcy Court and consented to by the Agent and (z) for transaction expenses related to the administration of the Chapter 11 Cases. Borrowers shall not be permitted to use the proceeds of the Loans:

(2) Pre-Petition sales, use and real property taxes; (3) Pre-Petition amounts due in respect of insurance financings; (4) amounts approved in accordance with other “first day” orders satisfactory to Agent; and (5) cure

to (a) the interests of Agent and Lenders or their rights and remedies under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, the Interim Order or the Final Order, or (b) the interests of the Prior Agent and Prior Lenders under the Pre-Petition
Loan Documents, including, without limitation, for the payment of any services rendered by the professionals retained by the Borrowers or the Committee in connection with the assertion of or joinder in any claim, counterclaim, action, proceeding,
application, motion, objection, defense or other contested matter, the purpose of which is to seek, or the result of which would be to obtain, any order, judgment determination, declaration or 

  

 8 

 
similar relief (x) invalidating, setting aside, avoiding or subordinating, in whole or in part, the Prior Lender Obligations or the Liens securing same,
or the Obligations or the Liens securing same, (y) for monetary, injunctive or other affirmative relief against any Prior Lender or Prior Agent or any Lender or Agent or their respective collateral, or (z) preventing, hindering or
otherwise delaying the exercise by any Prior Lender, Prior Agent, Lender or Agent of any rights and remedies under the Interim Order or Final Order, the Pre-Petition Loan Documents, the Loan Documents or applicable law, or the enforcement or
realization (whether by foreclosure, credit bid, further order of the court or otherwise) by any or all of the Prior Lenders, the Prior Agent, the Lenders and the Agent upon any of their Collateral, (iii) to make any distribution under a plan
of reorganization in any Chapter 11 Case; (iv) to make any payment in settlement of any claim, action or proceeding, before any court, arbitrator or other governmental body without the prior written consent of Agent; and (v) to pay
any fees or similar amounts to any Person who has proposed or may propose to purchase interests in any Borrower or any other Credit Party (including so-called “Topping Fees,” “Exit Fees,” and similar amounts)
without the prior written consent of the Agent and the Requisite Lenders. Disclosure Schedule (1.4) contains a description of Borrowers’ sources and uses of funds as of the Closing Date, including Loans and Letter of Credit
Obligations to be made or incurred on that date, and a funds flow memorandum detailing how funds from each source are to be transferred to particular uses. 
  

	 	1.5.	Interest and Applicable Margins. 

 (a) Borrowers shall pay interest to Agent, for the ratable benefit of Lenders in accordance with the various Loans being made by each Lender, in arrears on each applicable Interest Payment Date, at the following rates: (i) with respect
to the Revolving Credit Advances, the Index Rate plus the Applicable Revolver Index Margin per annum or, at the election of Borrower Representative, the applicable LIBOR Rate plus the Applicable Revolver LIBOR Margin per annum and (ii) with
respect to the Swing Line Loan, the Index Rate plus the Applicable Revolver Index Margin per annum. 
 The relevant Applicable
Margins are as follows: 
  

				
	 Applicable Revolver Index Margin
	  	0.75	%
	 Applicable Revolver LIBOR Margin
	  	2.25	%
	 Applicable Standby L/C Margin
	  	2.25	%
	 Applicable Documentary L/C Margin
	  	2.00	%
	 Applicable Unused Line Fee Margin
	  	0.25	%

 (b) If any payment on any Loan becomes due and payable on a day other than a
Business Day, the maturity thereof will be extended to the next succeeding Business Day (except as set forth in the definition of LIBOR Period) and, with respect to payments of principal, interest thereon shall be payable at the then applicable rate
during such extension. 
  

 9 

 (c) All computations of Fees calculated on a per annum basis and interest shall be made
by Agent on the basis of a 360-day year, in each case for the actual number of days occurring in the period for which such interest and Fees are payable. The Index Rate is a floating rate determined for each day. Each determination by Agent of an
interest rate and Fees hereunder shall be presumptive evidence of the correctness of such rates and Fees. 
 (d) So long as an
Event of Default has occurred and is continuing under Section 8.1(a) or so long as any other Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and at the election of Agent (or upon the written request of Requisite Lenders) confirmed by
written notice from Agent to Borrower Representative, and without further notice, motion or application to, hearing before, or order from the Bankruptcy Court, the interest rates applicable to the Loans and the Letter of Credit Fees shall be
increased by two percentage points (2.00%) per annum above the rates of interest or the rate of such Fees otherwise applicable hereunder unless Agent or Requisite Lenders elect to impose a smaller increase (the “Default Rate”),
and all outstanding Obligations shall bear interest at the Default Rate applicable to such Obligations. Interest and Letter of Credit Fees at the Default Rate shall accrue from the initial date of such Event of Default until that Event of Default is
cured or waived and shall be payable upon demand. 
 (e) Subject to the conditions precedent set forth in
Section 2.2, Borrower Representative shall have the option to (i) request that any Revolving Credit Advance be made as a LIBOR Loan, (ii) convert at any time all or any part of outstanding Loans (other than the Swing Line Loan)
from Index Rate Loans to LIBOR Loans, (iii) convert any LIBOR Loan to an Index Rate Loan upon payment of an administrative fee of $250 to the Agent and subject to payment of LIBOR breakage costs in accordance with Section 1.13(b) if
such conversion is made prior to the expiration of the LIBOR Period applicable thereto, or (iv) continue all or any portion of any Loan (other than the Swing Line Loan) as a LIBOR Loan upon the expiration of the applicable LIBOR Period and the
succeeding LIBOR Period of that continued Loan shall commence on the first day after the last day of the LIBOR Period of the Loan to be continued. Any Loan or group of Loans having the same proposed LIBOR Period to be made or continued as, or
converted into, a LIBOR Loan must be in a minimum amount of $5,000,000 and integral multiples of $500,000 in excess of such amount. Any such election must be made by 12 noon (New York time) on the third Business Day prior to (1) the date of any
proposed Advance which is to bear interest at the LIBOR Rate, (2) the end of each LIBOR Period with respect to any LIBOR Loans to be continued as such, or (3) the date on which Borrower Representative wishes to convert any Index Rate Loan
to a LIBOR Loan for a LIBOR Period designated by Borrower Representative in such election. If no election is received with respect to a LIBOR Loan by 12 noon (New York time) on the third Business Day prior to the end of the LIBOR Period with respect
thereto (or if a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or if the additional conditions precedent set forth in Section 2.2 shall not have been satisfied), that LIBOR Loan shall be converted to an Index Rate Loan at
the end of its LIBOR Period. Borrower Representative must make such election by notice to Agent in writing, by telecopy or overnight courier. In the case of any conversion or continuation, such election must be made pursuant to a written notice (a
“Notice of Conversion/Continuation”) in the form of Exhibit 1.5(e). 
  

 10 

 (f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 1.5,
if a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final order that the rate of interest payable hereunder exceeds the highest rate of interest permissible under law (the “Maximum Lawful Rate”), then so long as the Maximum Lawful Rate
would be so exceeded, the rate of interest payable hereunder shall be equal to the Maximum Lawful Rate; provided, however, that if at any time thereafter the rate of interest payable hereunder is less than the Maximum Lawful Rate, Borrowers
shall continue to pay interest hereunder at the Maximum Lawful Rate until such time as the total interest received by Agent, on behalf of Lenders, is equal to the total interest that would have been received had the interest rate payable hereunder
been (but for the operation of this paragraph) the interest rate payable since the Closing Date as otherwise provided in this Agreement. In no event shall the total interest received by any Lender pursuant to the terms hereof exceed the amount that
such Lender could lawfully have received had the interest due hereunder been calculated for the full term hereof at the Maximum Lawful Rate. 
 1.6. Eligible Accounts. All of the Accounts owned by each Borrower and reflected in the most recent Borrowing Base Certificate delivered by the Borrowers to Agent shall be “Eligible Accounts” for purposes of this
Agreement (net of customer advertising credits and similar amounts), except any Account to which any of the exclusionary criteria set forth below applies. Agent shall have the right to establish, modify or eliminate Reserves against Eligible
Accounts from time to time in its reasonable credit judgment. In addition, Agent reserves the right, at any time and from time to time after the Closing Date, to adjust any of the criteria set forth below and to establish new criteria, and to adjust
advance rates with respect to Eligible Accounts, in its reasonable credit judgment, reflecting changes in the collectibility or realization values of such Accounts arising or discovered by Agent after the Closing Date subject to the approval of all
Revolving Lenders in the case of adjustments, new criteria or changes in advance rates which have the effect of making more credit available than available on the Closing Date. Eligible Accounts shall not include any Account of any Borrower:

 (a) that does not arise from the sale of goods or the performance of services by such Borrower in the ordinary course of
its business; 
 (b) (i) upon which such Borrower’s right to receive payment is not absolute or is contingent upon
the fulfillment of any condition whatsoever or (ii) as to which such Borrower is not able to bring suit or otherwise enforce its remedies against the Account Debtor through judicial process or (iii) if the Account represents a progress
billing consisting of an invoice for goods sold or used or services rendered pursuant to a contract under which the Account Debtor’s obligation to pay that invoice is subject to such Borrower’s completion of further performance under such
contract or is subject to the equitable lien of a surety bond issuer; 
 (c) to the extent that any defense, counterclaim,
chargebacks, setoff or dispute is asserted as to such Account; 
 (d) that is not a true and correct statement of bona fide
indebtedness incurred in the amount of the Account for merchandise sold to or services rendered and accepted by the applicable Account Debtor; 
  

 11 

 (e) with respect to which an invoice, reasonably acceptable to Agent in form and
substance, has not been sent to the applicable Account Debtor; 
 (f) that (i) is not owned by such Borrower or
(ii) is subject to any Lien of any other Person, other than Liens in favor of Agent, on behalf of itself and Lenders; 
 (g) that arises from a sale to any director, officer, other employee or Affiliate of any Credit Party, or to any entity that has any common officer or director with any Credit Party; 
 (h) that is the obligation of an Account Debtor that is the United States government or a political subdivision thereof, or any state,
county or municipality or department, agency or instrumentality thereof unless Agent, in its sole discretion, has agreed to the contrary in writing and such Borrower, if necessary or desirable, has complied with respect to such obligation with the
Federal Assignment of Claims Act of 1940, or any applicable state, county or municipal law restricting assignment thereof; 
 (i) that is the obligation of an Account Debtor located outside the United States of America, other than Puerto Rico or Canada unless payment thereof is assured by a letter of credit assigned and delivered to Agent, reasonably satisfactory
to Agent as to form, amount and issuer; 
 (j) Accounts subject to contra-accounts or to the extent such Borrower or any
Subsidiary thereof is liable for goods sold or services rendered by the applicable Account Debtor to such Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof but only to the extent of the potential offset; 
 (k) that arises with respect to goods that are delivered on a bill-and-hold, cash-on-delivery basis or placed on consignment, guaranteed
sale or other terms by reason of which the payment by the Account Debtor is or may be conditional; 
 (l) that is in default;
provided, that, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, an Account shall be deemed in default upon the occurrence of any of the following: 
 (i) the Account is not paid within the earlier of: sixty (60) days following its due date or ninety (90) days following its
original invoice date; 
 (ii) the Account Debtor obligated upon such Account suspends business, makes a general assignment
for the benefit of creditors or fails to pay its debts generally as they come due; or 
 (iii) a petition is filed by or
against any Account Debtor obligated upon such Account under any bankruptcy law or any other federal, state or foreign (including any provincial) receivership, insolvency relief or other law or laws for the relief of debtors; 
  

 12 

 (m) that is the obligation of an Account Debtor if fifty percent (50%) or more of
the Dollar amount of all Accounts owing by that Account Debtor are ineligible under the other criteria set forth in this Section 1.6; 
 (n) as to which Agent’s Lien thereon, on behalf of itself and Lenders, is not a first priority perfected Lien; 
 (o) breaches any of the representations or warranties in the Loan Documents pertaining to Accounts;

 (r) that is an obligation of an Account Debtor that is a credit card issuer; or 
 (s) that is payable in any currency other than Dollars. 
 1.7. Eligible Inventory. All of the Inventory owned by the Borrowers and reflected in the most recent Borrowing Base Certificate delivered by the Borrowers to Agent shall be “Eligible
Inventory” for purposes of this Agreement, except any Inventory to which any of the exclusionary criteria set forth below applies. Agent shall have the right to establish, modify or eliminate Reserves against Eligible Inventory from time to
time in its reasonable credit judgment. In addition, Agent reserves the right, at any time and from time to time after the Closing Date, to adjust any of the criteria set forth below and to establish new criteria and to adjust advance rates with
respect to Eligible Inventory, in its reasonable credit judgment reflecting changes in the salability or realization values of Inventory arising or discovered by Agent after the Closing Date, subject to the approval of all Revolving Lenders in the
case of adjustments, new criteria or changes in advance rates which have the effect of making more credit available than available on the Closing Date. Eligible Inventory shall not include any Inventory of any Borrower that: 
 (a) is not owned by such Borrower free and clear of all Liens and rights of any other Person (including the rights of a purchaser that has
made progress payments and the rights of a surety that has issued a bond to assure such Borrower’s performance with respect to that Inventory), except the Liens in favor of Agent, on behalf of itself and Lenders, and Permitted Encumbrances in
favor of landlords and bailees to the extent permitted in Section 5.9 hereof (subject to Reserves established by Agent in accordance with Section 5.9 hereof); 
 (b) (i) is not located on premises owned, leased or rented by such Borrower and set forth in Disclosure Schedule (3.2), or
(ii) is stored at a leased location, unless Agent has given its prior consent thereto and unless either (x) a reasonably satisfactory landlord waiver has been delivered to Agent, or (y) Reserves reasonably satisfactory to Agent have
been established (if required by the Agent in its discretion) with respect 

  

 13 

 
thereto or (iii) is stored with a bailee or warehouseman unless a reasonably satisfactory, acknowledged bailee letter has been received by Agent and
Reserves reasonably satisfactory to Agent have been established with respect thereto, or (iv) is located at an owned location subject to a mortgage in favor of a lender other than Agent unless a reasonably satisfactory mortgagee waiver has been
delivered to Agent, or (v) is located at any location if the aggregate book value of Inventory at any such location is less than $100,000; 
 (c) is placed on consignment or is in transit, other than Inventory in transit (i) that is fully insured against loss with Agent named as loss payee, (ii) as to which a Reserve has been established by the
Agent (if required by the Agent in its discretion) to reflect any customs, freight and duty charges and (iii) which has been fully paid for; 
 (d) is covered by a negotiable document of title, unless such document has been delivered to Agent with all necessary endorsements, free and clear of all Liens except those in favor of Agent and Lenders;

royalties or fees related to (i) Inventory sold under the “Jonathan Adler” name and (ii) marks and Inventory subject to license 

  

 14 

 
agreements among Credit Parties so long as, in each case, such royalties and fees are subordinated to the payment of the Obligations pursuant to terms and
conditions satisfactory to the Agent and do not interfere with the Agent’s ability to sell such Inventory) or requiring the consent of the licensor for a sale thereof by Agent (unless such consent has been obtained in form and substance
satisfactory to the Agent). 
 1.8. Cash Management Systems. On or prior to the Closing Date, Credit Parties will establish and will
maintain until the Termination Date, the cash management systems described in Annex C (the “Cash Management Systems”). 
  

	 	1.9.	Fees. 

 (a) Borrowers shall pay to
GE Capital, individually, the Fees specified in the Fee Letter, at the times specified for payment therein. 
 (b) As
additional compensation for the Revolving Lenders, Borrowers shall pay to Agent, for the ratable benefit of such Lenders, in arrears, on the first Business Day of each month prior to the earliest of the Commitment Termination Date and the
Termination Date and on the Commitment Termination Date or the Termination Date, whichever shall first occur, a Fee for Borrowers’ non-use of available funds in an amount equal to the Applicable Unused Line Fee Margin per annum (calculated on
the basis of a 360 day year for actual days elapsed) multiplied by the difference between (x) the Maximum Amount (as it may be reduced from time to time) and (y) the average for the period of the daily closing balances of the aggregate
Revolving Loan and the Swing Line Loan outstanding during the period for which such Fee is due. 
 (c) [intentionally
omitted]. 
 (d) Borrowers shall pay to Agent, for the ratable benefit of Revolving Lenders, the Letter of Credit Fee as
provided in Annex B. 
 1.10. Receipt of Payments. Borrowers shall make each payment under this Agreement not later than 2:00
p.m. (New York time) on the day when due in immediately available funds in Dollars to the Collection Account. For purposes of computing interest and Fees and determining Borrowing Availability as of any date, all payments shall be deemed received on
the Business Day on which immediately available funds therefor are received in the Collection Account prior to 2:00 p.m. New York time. Payments received after 2:00 p.m. New York time on any Business Day or on a day that is not a Business Day shall
be deemed to have been received on the following Business Day. 
  

	 	1.11.	Application and Allocation of Payments. 

 (a)
(i) So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (A) payments consisting of proceeds of Accounts received in the ordinary course of business and other Collateral shall be applied, first, to the Swing Line Loan and,
second, the Revolving Loan; (B) voluntary prepayments shall be applied in accordance with the provisions of Section 1.3(a); and (C) mandatory prepayments shall be applied as set forth in Sections 1.3(b) and
1.3(c). All payments and prepayments applied to a particular Loan shall be applied ratably to the portion thereof held by each Lender as determined by its Pro Rata Share of such Loan. 
  

 15 

 (ii) As to any other payment not specified in clause (i) above, and as to all
payments made when an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or following the Commitment Termination Date, each Borrower hereby irrevocably waives the right to direct the application of any and all payments received from or on behalf of
such Borrower, and each Borrower hereby irrevocably agrees that Agent shall have the continuing exclusive right to apply any and all such payments against the Obligations of Borrowers as Agent may deem advisable notwithstanding any previous entry by
Agent in the Loan Account or any other books and records. 
 (iii) All payments on account of or arising from the Collateral
made when an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or following the Commitment Termination Date, shall be applied to amounts then due and payable in the following order: (1) to Fees of the Agent and Agent’s expenses reimbursable
hereunder; (2) to interest on the Swing Line Loan; (3) to principal payments on the Swing Line Loan; (4) to interest on the Revolving Loan and any Fees accruing or relating to the Revolving Loan, ratably in proportion to the interest
or fees accrued as to each Revolving Loan; (5) to principal payments on the Revolving Loan (other than Letter of Credit Obligations not then due and payable) and outstanding Letter of Credit Obligations then due and payable, ratably to the
aggregate, combined principal balance of the Revolving Loan and outstanding Letter of Credit Obligations and, with respect to any amounts remaining after such application, to provide cash collateral for Letter of Credit Obligations not then due and
payable in the manner described in clause (c) of Annex B; (6) to Obligations to the extent that they relate to cash management or similar services; and (7) to all other Obligations, including expenses of Lenders to the extent
reimbursable under Section 11.3. 
 (b) Agent is authorized to, and at its sole election may, charge to the
Revolving Loan balance on behalf of each Borrower and cause to be paid all Fees, expenses, Charges, costs (including insurance premiums in accordance with Section 5.4(a)) and interest and principal, other than principal of the Revolving
Loan, owing by Borrowers under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents if and to the extent Borrowers fail to pay promptly any such amounts as and when due, even if the amount of such charges would exceed Borrowing Availability at such
time. At Agent’s option and to the extent permitted by law, any charges so made shall constitute part of the Revolving Loan hereunder. 
 1.12. Loan Account and Accounting. Agent shall maintain a loan account (the “Loan Account”) on its books to record: all Advances, all payments made by Borrowers, and all other debits and credits as provided in this
Agreement with respect to the Loans or any other Obligations. All entries in the Loan Account shall be made in accordance with Agent’s customary accounting practices as in effect from time to time. The balance in the Loan Account, as recorded
on Agent’s most recent printout or other written statement, shall, absent error, be 

  

 16 

 
presumptive evidence of the amounts due and owing to Agent and Lenders by each Borrower; provided that any failure to so record or any error in so
recording shall not limit or otherwise affect any Borrower’s duty to pay the Obligations. Agent shall render to Borrower Representative a monthly accounting of transactions with respect to the Loans setting forth the balance of the Loan Account
as to the Borrowers for the immediately preceding month. Unless Borrower Representative notifies Agent in writing of any objection to any such accounting (specifically describing the basis for such objection), within thirty (30) days after the
date thereof, each and every such accounting shall be presumptive evidence of all matters reflected therein. Only those items expressly objected to in such notice shall be deemed to be disputed by Borrowers. Any failure by the Borrower’s
Representative to make an objection shall not prejudice its right to make a subsequent objection relating to a previous error. Notwithstanding any provision herein contained to the contrary, any Lender may elect (which election may be revoked) to
dispense with the issuance of Notes to that Lender and may rely on the Loan Account as evidence of the amount of Obligations from time to time owing to it. 
  

	 	1.13.	Indemnity. 

 (a) Each Credit Party
that is a signatory hereto shall jointly and severally indemnify and hold harmless each of Agent, Lenders and their respective Affiliates, and each such Person’s respective officers, directors, employees, attorneys, agents and representatives
(each, an “Indemnified Person”), from and against any and all suits, actions, proceedings, claims, damages, losses, liabilities and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements and other costs of
investigation or defense, including those incurred upon any appeal) that may be instituted or asserted against or incurred by any such Indemnified Person as the result of credit having been extended, suspended or terminated under this Agreement and
the other Loan Documents and the administration of such credit, and in connection with or arising out of the transactions contemplated hereunder and thereunder and any actions or failures to act in connection therewith, including any and all
Environmental Liabilities and legal costs and expenses arising out of or incurred in connection with disputes between or among any parties to any of the Loan Documents (collectively, “Indemnified Liabilities”); provided, that
no such Credit Party shall be liable for any indemnification to an Indemnified Person to the extent that any such suit, action, proceeding, claim, damage, loss, liability or expense results from that Indemnified Person’s gross negligence or
willful misconduct. NO INDEMNIFIED PERSON SHALL BE RESPONSIBLE OR LIABLE TO ANY OTHER PARTY TO ANY LOAN DOCUMENT, ANY SUCCESSOR, ASSIGNEE OR THIRD PARTY BENEFICIARY OF SUCH PERSON OR ANY OTHER PERSON ASSERTING CLAIMS DERIVATIVELY THROUGH SUCH PARTY,
FOR INDIRECT, PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES WHICH MAY BE ALLEGED AS A RESULT OF CREDIT HAVING BEEN EXTENDED, SUSPENDED OR TERMINATED UNDER ANY LOAN DOCUMENT OR AS A RESULT OF ANY OTHER TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREUNDER OR THEREUNDER.
NOTHING HEREIN IS INTENDED TO PROVIDE INDEMNIFICATION TO AGENT OR ANY LENDER FOR ANY BREACH OF ITS OBLIGATIONS, DUTIES OR RESPONSIBILITIES UNDER THE LOAN DOCUMENTS CONSTITUTING BAD FAITH OR GROSS NEGLIGENCE. 
  

 17 

 (b) To induce Lenders to provide the LIBOR Rate option on the terms provided herein, if
(i) any LIBOR Loans are repaid in whole or in part prior to the last day of any applicable LIBOR Period (whether that repayment is made pursuant to any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or occurs as a result of
acceleration, by operation of law or otherwise); (ii) any Borrower shall default in payment when due of the principal amount of or interest on any LIBOR Loan; (iii) any Borrower shall refuse to accept any borrowing of, or shall request a
termination of, any borrowing of, conversion into or continuation of, LIBOR Loans after Borrower Representative has given notice requesting the same in accordance herewith; or (iv) any Borrower shall fail to make any prepayment of a LIBOR Loan
after Borrower Representative has given a notice thereof in accordance herewith, then Borrowers shall jointly and severally indemnify and hold harmless each Lender from and against all losses, costs and expenses resulting from or arising from any of
the foregoing. Such indemnification shall include any loss (including loss of margin) or expense arising from the reemployment of funds obtained by it or from fees payable to terminate deposits from which such funds were obtained. For the purpose of
calculating amounts payable to a Lender under this subsection, each Lender shall be deemed to have actually funded its relevant LIBOR Loan through the purchase of a deposit bearing interest at the LIBOR Rate in an amount equal to the amount of that
LIBOR Loan and having a maturity comparable to the relevant LIBOR Period; provided that each Lender may fund each of its LIBOR Loans in any manner it sees fit, and the foregoing assumption shall be utilized only for the calculation of amounts
payable under this subsection. This covenant shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Notes and all other amounts payable hereunder. As promptly as practicable under the circumstances, each Lender shall provide Borrower
Representative with its written calculation of all amounts payable pursuant to this Section 1.13(b), and such calculation shall be binding on the parties hereto unless Borrower Representative shall object in writing within ten
(10) Business Days of receipt thereof, specifying the basis for such objection in detail. 
 1.14. Access. Each Credit Party that
is a party hereto shall, during its normal business hours, from time to time upon two (2) Business Days’ prior notice as frequently as Agent reasonably determines to be appropriate: (a) provide Agent and any of its officers,
employees, consultants, financial advisors, agents and other designees reasonable access to its properties, facilities, advisors, officers and employees of each Credit Party and to the Collateral, (b) permit Agent, and any of its officers,
employees and agents, to inspect, audit and make extracts from any Credit Party’s books and records, and (c) permit Agent, and its officers, employees, consultants, financial advisors, agents and other designees, to inspect, review,
evaluate and make test verifications and counts of the Accounts, Inventory, Real Estate and other Collateral of any Credit Party. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, each such Credit Party shall provide such reasonable access to
Agent and to each Lender and their respective officers, employees, consultants, financial advisors, agents and other designees at all times and without advance notice. Furthermore, so long as any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing,
Borrowers shall provide Agent and each Lender with access to their suppliers and customers. Each Credit Party shall make available to Agent and its counsel reasonably promptly originals or copies of all books and records that Agent may reasonably
request, including, without limitation, the work product of any financial advisors, investment bankers or other consultants retained by any Credit Party (redacted to exclude any privileged portion). Each Credit Party shall deliver 

  

 18 

 
any document or instrument necessary for Agent, as it may from time to time reasonably request, to obtain records from any service bureau or other Person
that maintains records for such Credit Party, and shall maintain duplicate records or supporting documentation on media, including computer tapes and discs owned by such Credit Party. Agent will give Lenders at least five (5) days’ prior
written notice of regularly scheduled audits. Representatives of other Lenders may accompany Agent’s representatives on regularly scheduled audits at no charge to Borrowers. 
  

	 	1.15.	Taxes. 

 (a) Any and all payments by
each Borrower hereunder (including any payments made pursuant to Section 12) or under the Notes shall be made, in accordance with this Section 1.15, free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future
Taxes. If any Borrower shall be required by law to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder (including any sum payable pursuant to Section 12) or under the Notes, (i) the sum payable shall be increased as
much as shall be necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 1.15) Agent or Lenders, as applicable, receive an amount equal to the sum they would
have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) such Borrower shall make such deductions, and (iii) such Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxing or other authority in accordance with applicable law. Within
thirty (30) days after the date of any payment of Taxes, Borrower Representative shall furnish to Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof. 
 (b) Each Credit Party that is a signatory hereto shall jointly and severally indemnify and, within ten (10) days of demand therefor,
pay Agent and each Lender for the full amount of Taxes (including any Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 1.15) paid by Agent or such Lender, as appropriate, and any liability (including penalties,
interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally asserted. 
 (c) Each Lender organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside the United States (a “Foreign Lender”) as to which payments to be made under this Agreement or under the Notes are exempt from United States withholding tax
under an applicable statute or tax treaty shall provide to Borrower Representative and Agent a properly completed and executed IRS Form W-8ECI or Form W-8BEN or other applicable form, certificate or document prescribed by the IRS or the United
States certifying as to such Foreign Lender’s entitlement to such exemption (a “Certificate of Exemption”). Any foreign Person that seeks to become a Lender under this Agreement shall provide a Certificate of Exemption to
Borrower Representative and Agent prior to becoming a Lender hereunder. No foreign Person may become a Lender hereunder if such Person fails to deliver a Certificate of Exemption in advance of becoming a Lender. 
  

	 	1.16.	Capital Adequacy; Increased Costs; Illegality. 

 (a) If any law, treaty, governmental (or quasi-governmental) rule, regulation, guideline or order regarding capital adequacy, reserve requirements or similar 

  

 19 

 
requirements or compliance by any Lender with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy, reserve requirements or similar requirements (whether or
not having the force of law), in each case, adopted after the Closing Date, from any central bank or other Governmental Authority increases or would have the effect of increasing the amount of capital, reserves or other funds required to be
maintained by such Lender and thereby reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder, then Borrowers shall from time to time upon demand by such Lender (with a copy of such demand to Agent)
pay to Agent, for the account of such Lender, additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender for such reduction. A certificate as to the amount of that reduction and showing the basis of the computation thereof submitted by such Lender to
Borrower Representative and to Agent shall be presumptive evidence of the matters set forth therein. 
 (b) If, due to either
(i) the introduction of or any change in any law or regulation (or any change in the interpretation thereof) or (ii) the compliance with any guideline or request from any central bank or other Governmental Authority (whether or not having
the force of law), in each case adopted after the Closing Date, there shall be any increase in the cost to any Lender of agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining any Loan, then Borrowers shall from time to time, upon demand by such Lender
(with a copy of such demand to Agent), pay to Agent for the account of such Lender additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender for such increased cost. A certificate as to the amount of such increased cost, submitted to Borrower
Representative and to Agent by such Lender, shall be presumptive evidence of the matters set forth therein. Each Lender agrees that, as promptly as practicable after it becomes aware of any circumstances referred to above which would result in any
such increased cost, the affected Lender shall, to the extent not inconsistent with such Lender’s internal policies of general application, use reasonable commercial efforts to minimize costs and expenses incurred by it and payable to it by
Borrowers pursuant to this Section 1.16(b). 
 (c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if
the introduction of or any change in any law or regulation (or any change in the interpretation thereof) shall make it unlawful, or any central bank or other Governmental Authority shall assert that it is unlawful, for any Lender to agree to make or
to make or to continue to fund or maintain any LIBOR Loan, then, unless that Lender is able to make or to continue to fund or to maintain such LIBOR Loan at another branch or office of that Lender without, in that Lender’s reasonable opinion,
materially adversely affecting it or its Loans or the income obtained therefrom, on notice thereof and demand therefor by such Lender to Borrower Representative through Agent, (i) the obligation of such Lender to agree to make or to make or to
continue to fund or maintain LIBOR Loans shall terminate and (ii) the Borrowers shall forthwith prepay in full all outstanding LIBOR Loans owing to such Lender, together with interest accrued thereon, unless Borrower Representative on behalf of
the Borrowers, within five (5) Business Days after the delivery of such notice and demand, converts all LIBOR Loans into Index Rate Loans. 
 (d) Within sixty (60) days after receipt by Borrower Representative of written notice and demand from any Lender (an “Affected Lender”) for payment of additional 

  

 20 

 
amounts or increased costs as provided in Sections 1.15(a), 1.16(a) or 1.16(b), or notice that it cannot continue to fund or maintain any LIBOR Loans
as provided in Section 1.16(c), Borrower Representative may, at its option, notify Agent and such Affected Lender of its intention to replace the Affected Lender. So long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing,
Borrower Representative, with the consent of Agent, may obtain, at Borrowers’ expense, a replacement Lender (“Replacement Lender”) for the Affected Lender, which Replacement Lender must be reasonably satisfactory to Agent. If
Borrowers obtain a Replacement Lender within ninety (90) days following notice of their intention to do so, the Affected Lender must sell and assign its Loans and Commitments to such Replacement Lender for an amount equal to the principal
balance of all Loans held by the Affected Lender and all accrued interest and Fees with respect thereto through the date of such sale and such assignment shall not require the payment of an assignment fee to Agent; provided, that Borrowers
shall have reimbursed such Affected Lender for the additional amounts or increased costs that it is entitled to receive under this Agreement through the date of such sale and assignment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrowers shall not have the
right to obtain a Replacement Lender for an Affected Lender who would be entitled to additional amounts or increased costs if such Affected Lender rescinds its demand for increased costs or additional amounts within 15 days following its receipt of
Borrowers’ notice of intention to replace such Affected Lender. Furthermore, if Borrowers give a notice of intention to replace and do not so replace such Affected Lender within ninety (90) days thereafter, Borrowers’ rights under
this Section 1.16(d) shall terminate with respect to such Affected Lender and Borrowers shall promptly pay all increased costs or additional amounts demanded by such Affected Lender pursuant to Sections 1.15(a), 1.16(a) and
1.16(b). 
 1.17. Single Loan. All Loans to the Borrowers and all of the other Obligations of the Borrowers arising under this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall constitute one general obligation of the Borrowers secured, until the Termination Date, by all of the Collateral. 
 1.18. Grant of Non-Exclusive License. For the purpose of enabling Agent to exercise Agent’s rights and remedies under Section 8.2 (including, without limitation, in order to take possession of,
hold, preserve, process, assemble, prepare for sale, market for sale, sell or otherwise dispose of the Collateral) at such time as Agent shall be lawfully entitled to exercise Agent’s rights and remedies under Section 8.2, each
Credit Party hereby (i) grants to Agent, for the benefit of Agent and the other Lenders, a royalty free, non-exclusive, irrevocable license, such license being with respect to Agent’s exercise of the Agent’s rights and remedies under
Section 8.2 including, without limitation, in connection with any sale or other disposition of Inventory, to use, apply, and affix any Trademark in which any Borrower now or hereafter has rights, to use, license or sublicense any other
Intellectual Property and computer software now owned, held or hereafter acquired by such Credit Party, including in such license access to all media in and to the extent to which any of the licensed items may be recorded or stored and to all
computer software programs to the extent used for the compilation or print out thereof, provided, that Agent’s use of the property described in subclauses (a) and (b) above will comply with all applicable law and
Agent shall use reasonable care with respect to such property, including the license set forth in clause (i) above, and to use any and all furniture, fixtures and equipment contained in any premises owned or occupied by any Credit Party
in connection with the exercise of Agent’s rights and remedies under Section 8.2, and (ii) without limiting the provisions of Section 8.2, agrees to provide Agent and/or its agents with access to, and the right to
use, any such premises owned or occupied by any Credit Party.

 (b) All Obligations shall constitute administrative expenses of Borrowers in the Chapter 11 Cases, with administrative priority and
senior secured status under Sections 364(c) and 364(d) of the Bankruptcy Code. Subject to the Carve-Out Amount, such administrative claim shall have priority over all other costs and expenses of the kinds specified in, or ordered pursuant to,
Sections 105, 326, 328, 330, 331, 503(b), 506(c), 507(a), 507(b), 546(c), 726, 1114 or any other provision of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise, and shall at all times be senior to the rights of Borrowers, Borrowers’ estates, and any successor
trustee or estate representative in the Chapter 11 Cases or any subsequent proceeding or case under the Bankruptcy Code. The Liens granted to Lenders on the Collateral owned by the Borrowers, and the priorities accorded to the Obligations shall
have the priority and senior secured status afforded by Sections 364(c) and 364(d)(l) of the Bankruptcy Code (all as more fully set forth in the Interim Order and Final Order) senior to all claims and interests other than the Carve-Out Expenses up

occurred, then the Carve-Out Expenses shall be limited to a maximum aggregate amount unpaid not to exceed $500,000 prior to the entry of the Final Order and $1,000,000 on and after the entry of the Final Order (such dollar amount being referred to
herein as the “Carve-Out Amount”) (determined without regard to fees and expenses which may be awarded and paid on an interim basis or any Pre-Petition retainer paid to any Borrower’s or Committee’s counsel in connection
with the Chapter 11 Cases), provided, that the Carve-Out Expenses shall not include any other claims that are or may be senior to or pari passu with any of the Carve-Out Expenses or any professional fees and expenses of a Chapter 7
trustee and, provided, further, that Carve-Out Expenses shall not include any fees or disbursements (A) arising after the conversion of the Chapter 11 Case to a case under Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code or (B) of

Pre-Petition Loan Agreement or any of the loan documents or instruments entered into in connection therewith. Except as set forth herein or in the Final Order, no other claim having a priority superior or pari passu to that granted to Agent and
Lenders by the Final Order shall be granted or approved while any Obligations under this Agreement remain outstanding. Except for the Carve-Out Expenses up to the Carve-Out Amount, no costs or expenses of administration shall be imposed against
Agent, Lenders or any of the Collateral or any of the Agent and Lenders under the Pre-Petition Loan Agreement or the Collateral (as defined in the Pre-Petition Loan Agreement) under Sections 105, 506(c) or 552 of the Bankruptcy Code, or otherwise,
and each of the Borrowers hereby waives for itself and on behalf of its estate in bankruptcy, any and all rights under sections 105, 506(c) or 552, or otherwise, to assert or impose or seek to assert or impose, any such costs or expenses of
administration against Agent or the Lenders or the Agent or the Lenders under the Pre-Petition Loan Agreement. No portion of the Carve Out may be used to litigate, object, contest or challenge in any manner, or in connection with raising any
defenses to, the debt or collateral position of the Agent and the Lenders under this Agreement or the Pre-Petition Loan Agreement, whether by challenging the validity, extent, amount, perfection, priority or enforceability of the Indebtedness under
this Agreement or the Pre-Petition Loan Agreement or the validity, perfection or priority of any mortgage, security interest or Lien with respect thereto or any other rights or interests or replacement liens with respect thereto or any other rights
or interests of the Agent and the Lenders, or by seeking to subordinate or recharacterize this Agreement or the Pre-Petition Loan Agreement or disallow any claim, mortgage, security interest, Lien, or replacement lien or by asserting any claims or
causes of action, including, without limitation, any actions under Chapter 5 of the Bankruptcy Code, against the Agent, the Lenders, or any of their respective officers, directors, agents, employees or attorneys. In addition, the Carve-Out shall not
be used in connection with (i) preventing, hindering or delaying the Lenders’ or the Agent’s enforcement or realization upon the Collateral once an Event of Default has occurred, (ii) using or seeking to use cash collateral or
selling or otherwise disposing of the Collateral without the consent of the Agent, (iii) using or seeking to use any insurance proceeds without the consent of the Agent; or (iv) incurring Indebtedness without the consent of the Agent.

 1.21. No Discharge; Survival of Claims. Borrowers agree that (a) the Obligations hereunder shall not be discharged by the entry of an order
confirming a plan of reorganization in any Chapter 11 Case (and Borrowers pursuant to Section 1141(d)(4) of the Bankruptcy Code, hereby waive any such discharge) and (ii) the superpriority administrative claim granted to Agent
and Lenders pursuant to the Interim Order and Final Order and described in Section 1.19 and the Liens granted to Agent pursuant to the Interim Order and Final Order and described in Section 1.19 shall not be affected in any
manner by the entry of an order confirming a plan of reorganization in any Chapter 11 Case. 
  

 23 

 1.22. Release. Each Borrower hereby acknowledges effective upon entry of the Interim Order, that
Borrowers or any of their Subsidiaries have no defense, counterclaim, offset, recoupment, cross-complaint, claim or demand of any kind or nature whatsoever that can be asserted to reduce or eliminate all of any part of the Borrowers’ or their

 3.9. Government Regulation. No Credit Party is an “investment company” or an “affiliated person” of, or
“promoter” or “principal underwriter” for, an “investment company,” as such terms are defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940. No Credit Party is subject to regulation under the Public Utility Holding Company Act
of 1935, the Federal Power Act, or any 

  

 30 

 
other federal or state statute that restricts or limits its ability to incur Indebtedness or to perform its obligations hereunder. The making of the Loans by
Lenders to Borrowers, the incurrence of the Letter of Credit Obligations on behalf of Borrowers, the application of the proceeds thereof and repayment thereof and the consummation of the Related Transactions will not violate any provision of any
such statute or any rule, regulation or order issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission applicable to any Credit Party. 
 3.10.
Margin Regulations. No Credit Party is engaged, nor will it engage, principally or as one of its important activities, in the business of extending credit for the purpose of “purchasing” or “carrying” any “margin
stock” as such terms are defined in Regulation U of the Federal Reserve Board as now and from time to time hereafter in effect (such securities being referred to herein as “Margin Stock”). No Credit Party owns any Margin Stock,
and none of the proceeds of the Loans or other extensions of credit under this Agreement will be used, directly or indirectly, for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any Margin Stock, for the purpose of reducing or retiring any Indebtedness that
was originally incurred to purchase or carry any Margin Stock or for any other purpose that might cause any of the Loans or other extensions of credit under this Agreement to be considered a “purpose credit” within the meaning of
Regulations T, U or X of the Federal Reserve Board. No Credit Party will take or permit to be taken any action that might cause any Loan Document to violate any regulation of the Federal Reserve Board. 
 3.11. Taxes. All federal, state and other material tax returns, reports and statements, including information returns, required by any
Governmental Authority to be filed by any Credit Party have been filed with the appropriate Governmental Authority, and all Charges have been paid prior to the date on which any fine, penalty, interest or late charge may be added thereto for
nonpayment thereof excluding Charges or other amounts being contested in accordance with Section 5.2(b) and unless the failure to so file or pay would not reasonably be expected to result in fines, penalties or interest in excess of
$100,000 in the aggregate. Proper and accurate amounts have been withheld by each Credit Party from its respective employees for all periods in full and complete compliance with all applicable federal, state, local and foreign laws and such
withholdings have been timely paid to the respective Governmental Authorities. Disclosure Schedule (3.11) sets forth as of the Closing Date those taxable years for which any Credit Party’s tax returns are currently being audited by
the IRS or any other applicable Governmental Authority, and any assessments or threatened assessments in connection with such audit, or otherwise currently outstanding. Except as described in Disclosure Schedule (3.11), as of the Closing
Date, no Credit Party has executed or filed with the IRS or any other Governmental Authority any agreement or other document extending, or having the effect of extending, the period for assessment or collection of any Charges. Except as described in
Disclosure Schedule (3.11), none of the Credit Parties and their respective predecessors are liable for any Charges: (a) under any agreement (including any tax sharing agreements) or (b) to each Credit Party’s knowledge, as a
transferee. As of the Closing Date, no Credit Party has agreed or been requested to make any adjustment under IRC Section 481(a), by reason of a change in accounting method or otherwise, which would reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect. 
  

 31 

 3.12. ERISA. 
 (a) Disclosure Schedule (3.12) lists, as of the Closing Date, (i) all ERISA Affiliates and (ii) all Plans and
separately identifies all Pension Plans, including Title IV Plans, Multiemployer Plans, and all Retiree Welfare Plans. Copies of all such listed Plans, together with a copy of the latest form IRS/DOL 5500-series, as applicable, for each such Plan,
have been delivered to Agent. Except with respect to Multiemployer Plans, each Qualified Plan has been determined by the IRS to qualify under Section 401 of the IRC, the trusts created thereunder have been determined to be exempt from tax under
the provisions of Section 501 of the IRC, and nothing has occurred that would cause the loss of such qualification or tax-exempt status. Each Plan is in compliance in all material respects with the applicable provisions of ERISA, the IRC and
its terms, including the timely filing of all reports required under the IRC or ERISA. Neither any Credit Party nor ERISA Affiliate has failed to make any material contribution or pay any material amount due as required by either Section 412 of
the IRC or Section 302 of ERISA or the terms of any such Plan. No “prohibited transaction,” as defined in Section 406 of ERISA and Section 4975 of the IRC, has occurred with respect to any Plan, that would subject any Credit
Party to a material tax on prohibited transactions imposed by Section 502(i) of ERISA or Section 4975 of the IRC. 
 (b) Except as set forth in Disclosure Schedule (3.12): (i) no Title IV Plan has any material Unfunded Pension Liability; (ii) no ERISA Event has occurred or is reasonably expected to occur; (iii) there are no pending,

(iv) no Credit Party or ERISA Affiliate has incurred or reasonably expects to incur any material liability as a result of a complete or partial withdrawal from a Multiemployer Plan; and (v) within the last five years no Title IV Plan of
any Credit Party or ERISA Affiliate has been terminated, whether or not in a “standard termination” as that term is used in Section 4041 of ERISA, nor has any Title IV Plan of any Credit Party or any ERISA Affiliate (determined at any
time within the last five years) with material Unfunded Pension Liabilities been transferred outside of the “controlled group” (within the meaning of Section 4001(a)(14) of ERISA) of any Credit Party or ERISA Affiliate (determined at
such time). 
 3.13. No Litigation. No action, claim, lawsuit, demand, investigation or proceeding is now pending or, to the knowledge
of any Credit Party, threatened against any Credit Party, before any Governmental Authority or before any arbitrator or panel of arbitrators (collectively, “Litigation”), (a) that challenges any Credit Party’s right or
power to enter into or perform any of its obligations under the Loan Documents to which it is a party, or the validity or enforceability of any Loan Document or any action taken thereunder, or (b) that has a reasonable risk of being determined
adversely to any Credit Party and that, if so determined, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Except as set forth on Disclosure Schedule (3.13), as of the Closing Date there is no Litigation pending or, to any
Credit Party’s knowledge, threatened, that seeks damages in excess of $250,000 or injunctive relief against, or alleges criminal misconduct of, any Credit Party. 
  

 32 

 3.14. Brokers. No broker or finder brought about the obtaining, making or closing of the Loans or
the Related Transactions, and no Credit Party or Affiliate thereof has any obligation to any Person in respect of any finder’s or brokerage fees in connection therewith.

Schedule (3.15). Each Credit Party conducts its business and affairs without infringement of or interference with any Intellectual Property of any other Person in any material respect. Except as set forth in Disclosure Schedule (3.15), no
Credit Party is aware of any material infringement claim by any other Person with respect to any Intellectual Property. 
 3.16. Full
Disclosure. No information contained in this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents, Financial Statements or Collateral Reports or other written reports from time to time prepared by any Credit Party and delivered hereunder or any written
statement prepared by any Credit Party and furnished by or on behalf of any Credit Party to Agent or any Lender pursuant to the terms of this Agreement contains or will contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omits or will omit to state a
material fact necessary to make the statements contained herein or therein not misleading in light of the circumstances under which they were made. The Liens granted to Agent, on behalf of itself and Lenders, pursuant to the Collateral Documents
will at all times be fully perfected first priority Liens in and to the Collateral described therein, subject, as to priority, only to Permitted Encumbrances. 
 3.17. Environmental Matters. 
 (a) Except as set forth in Disclosure Schedule
(3.17), as of the Closing Date: (i) the Real Estate is free of contamination from any Hazardous Material except for such contamination that would not adversely impact the value or marketability of such Real Estate and that would not result

$100,000, and all such Environmental Permits are valid, uncontested and in good standing; (v) no Credit Party is involved in operations or knows of any facts, circumstances or conditions, including any Releases of Hazardous Materials, that are
likely to result in any Environmental Liabilities of such Credit Party which could reasonably be expected to exceed $100,000; (vi) there is no Litigation arising under or related to any Environmental Laws, Environmental Permits or Hazardous
Material that seeks damages, penalties, fines, costs or expenses in excess of 

  

 33 

 
$100,000 or injunctive relief against, or that alleges criminal misconduct by, any Credit Party; (vii) no notice has been received by any Credit Party
identifying it as a “potentially responsible party” or requesting information under CERCLA or analogous state statutes, and to the knowledge of the Credit Parties, there are no facts, circumstances or conditions that may result in any
Credit Party being identified as a “potentially responsible party” under CERCLA or analogous state statutes; and (viii) the Credit Parties have provided to Agent copies of all existing environmental reports, reviews and audits and all
written information pertaining to actual or potential Environmental Liabilities, in each case relating to any Credit Party. 
 (b) Each Credit Party hereby acknowledges and agrees that Agent (i) is not now, and has not ever been, in control of any of the Real Estate or any Credit Party’s affairs, and (ii) does not have the capacity through the

	 	5.	AFFIRMATIVE COVENANTS 

 Each Credit Party executing
this Credit Agreement jointly and severally agrees as to all Credit Parties that from and after the date hereof and until the Termination Date: 
 5.1. Maintenance of Existence and Conduct of Business. Except as occasioned by the Chapter 11 Cases, each Credit Party shall: do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its
corporate existence and its material rights and franchises; continue to conduct its business (other than in respect of the d-Scan consigned goods and other than as may be consistent with the Storehouse Chain Sale) substantially as now conducted or
as otherwise permitted hereunder; at all times maintain, preserve and protect all of its assets and properties used or useful in the conduct of its business, and keep the same in good repair, working order and condition in all material respects
(taking into consideration ordinary wear and tear) and from time to time make, or cause to be made, all necessary or appropriate repairs, replacements and improvements thereto consistent with industry practices; and transact business only in such
corporate and trade names as are set forth in Disclosure Schedule (5.1). Nothing herein shall preclude a Credit Party from merging into another Credit Party or a Borrower from acquiring all or substantially all of the assets from another
Credit Party, in each case, to the extent permitted under Section 6.1. 
 5.2. Payment of Charges. 
 (a) Subject to Section 5.2(b), each Credit Party shall pay and discharge or cause to be paid and discharged promptly all
Charges payable by it, including (i) Charges imposed upon it, its income and profits, or any of its property (real, personal or mixed) and all Charges with respect to tax, social security and unemployment withholding with respect to its
employees, (ii) lawful claims for labor, materials, supplies and services or otherwise, and (iii) all storage or rental charges payable to warehousemen or bailees, in each case, before any thereof shall become past due; provided
that, no Borrower shall be required to pay any Charges, Taxes or Claims the nonpayment of which is permitted by the Bankruptcy Code. 
  

 36 

 (b) Each Credit Party may in good faith contest, by appropriate proceedings, the validity
or amount of any Charges, Taxes or claims described in Section 5.2(a); provided, that (i) adequate reserves with respect to such contest are maintained on the books of such Credit Party, in accordance with GAAP; (ii) no
Lien shall be imposed to secure payment of such Charges (other than payments to warehousemen and/or bailees) that is superior to any of the Liens securing the Obligations and such contest is maintained and prosecuted continuously and with diligence
and operates to suspend collection or enforcement of such Charges; (iii) none of the Collateral becomes subject to forfeiture or loss as a result of such contest; and (iv) such Credit Party shall promptly pay or discharge such contested
Charges, Taxes or claims and all additional charges, interest, penalties and expenses, if any, and shall deliver to Agent evidence reasonably acceptable to Agent of such compliance, payment or discharge, if such contest is terminated or discontinued
adversely to such Credit Party or the conditions set forth in this Section 5.2(b) are no longer met. 
 5.3. Books and
Records. Each Credit Party shall keep adequate books and records with respect to its business activities in which proper entries, reflecting all financial transactions, are made in accordance with GAAP and on a basis consistent with the
Financial Statements attached as Disclosure Schedule (3.4(a)). 
 5.4. Insurance; Damage to or Destruction of Collateral.

 (a) The Credit Parties shall, at their sole cost and expense, maintain the policies of insurance described on Disclosure
Schedule (3.18) as in effect on the date hereof or otherwise in form and amounts and with insurers reasonably acceptable to Agent. Such policies of insurance (or the loss payable and additional insured endorsements delivered to Agent) shall
contain provisions pursuant to which the insurer agrees to provide thirty (30) days prior written notice to Agent in the event of any non-renewal, cancellation or amendment of any such insurance policy. If any Credit Party at any time or times
hereafter shall fail to obtain or maintain any of the policies of insurance required above, or to pay all premiums relating thereto, Agent may at any time or times thereafter obtain and maintain such policies of insurance and pay such premiums and
take any other action with respect thereto that Agent deems advisable; provided that, so long as the Credit Parties immediately certify that they have obtained and continue to maintain such policies of insurance, the Agent shall not obtain
such policies unless the Credit Parties have failed to provide the Agent with satisfactory evidence of such insurance within three (3) Business Days after written request to the Credit Parties. Agent shall have no obligation to obtain insurance
for any Credit Party or pay any premiums therefor. By doing so, Agent shall not be deemed to have waived any Default or Event of Default arising from any Credit Party’s failure to maintain such insurance or pay any premiums therefor. All sums
so disbursed, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, court costs and other charges related thereto, shall be payable on demand by Borrowers to Agent and shall be additional Obligations hereunder secured by the Collateral. 
 (b) Agent reserves the right at any time upon any change in any Credit Party’s risk profile (including any change in the product mix
maintained by any Credit Party or any laws affecting the potential liability of such Credit Party) to require additional forms 

  

 37 

 
and limits of insurance to, in Agent’s opinion, adequately protect both Agent’s and Lenders’ interests in all or any portion of the Collateral
and to ensure that each Credit Party is protected by insurance in amounts and with coverage customary for its industry. If reasonably requested by Agent, each Credit Party shall deliver to Agent from time to time a report of a reputable insurance
broker, reasonably satisfactory to Agent, with respect to its insurance policies. 
 (c) Each Credit Party shall deliver to
Agent, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Agent, endorsements to (i) all “all risk” and business interruption insurance naming Agent, on behalf of itself and Lenders, as loss payee, and (ii) all general liability
and other liability policies (excluding policies covering directors and officers insurance and insurance covering employee claims) naming Agent, on behalf of itself and Lenders, as additional insured. Each Credit Party irrevocably makes, constitutes
and appoints Agent (and all officers, employees or agents designated by Agent), so long as any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or the anticipated insurance proceeds exceed $1,000,000, as such Credit Party’s true and
lawful agent and attorney-in-fact for the purpose of making, settling and adjusting claims under such “all risk” policies of insurance, endorsing the name of such Credit Party on any check or other item of payment for the proceeds of such
“all risk” policies of insurance and for making all determinations and decisions with respect to such “all risk” policies of insurance. Agent shall have no duty to exercise any rights or powers granted to it pursuant to the
foregoing power-of-attorney. Borrower Representative shall promptly notify Agent of any loss, damage, or destruction to the Collateral in the amount of $250,000 or more, whether or not covered by insurance. After deducting from such proceeds
(i) the expenses incurred by Agent in the collection or handling thereof, and (ii) amounts required to be paid to creditors (other than Lenders) having Permitted Encumbrances, Agent shall apply such proceeds to the reduction of the
Obligations in accordance with Section 1.3(c). 
 (d) The Credit Parties will pay all premiums when due on the
Life Insurance Policies and properly notify the Agent in writing of the death of any individual covered by the Life Insurance Policies. In the event of the death of such individual, regardless of whether an Event of Default shall have occurred and
be continuing, each Credit Party agrees that the Agent may, upon three Business Days prior written notice to the Borrower Representative, apply the proceeds of the Life Insurance Policies as a mandatory prepayment of the amounts payable hereunder
and the other Loan Documents in such order of priority as is contemplated in Section 1.11(a)(iii). 
 5.5. Compliance with
Laws. Each Credit Party shall comply with all federal, state, local and foreign laws and regulations applicable to it, including those relating to ERISA, labor laws, and Environmental Laws and Environmental Permits, except to the extent that the
failure to comply, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 5.6.
Supplemental Disclosure. From time to time as may be reasonably requested by Agent (which request will not be made more frequently than once each year absent the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default) or at Credit Parties’
election, the Credit 

  

 38 

 
Parties shall supplement each Disclosure Schedule hereto, or any representation herein or in any other Loan Document, with respect to any matter hereafter
arising that, if existing or occurring at the date of this Agreement, would have been required to be set forth or described in such Disclosure Schedule or as an exception to such representation or that is necessary to correct any information in such
Disclosure Schedule or representation which has been rendered inaccurate thereby (and, in the case of any supplements to any Disclosure Schedule, such Disclosure Schedule shall be appropriately marked to show the changes made therein);
provided that (a) no such supplement to any such Disclosure Schedule or representation shall amend, supplement or otherwise modify any Disclosure Schedule or representation, or be or be deemed a waiver of any Default or Event of Default
resulting from the matters disclosed therein, except as consented to by Agent and Requisite Lenders in writing, and (b) no supplement shall be required or permitted as to representations and warranties that relate solely to the Closing Date.

 5.7. Intellectual Property. Each Credit Party will conduct its business and affairs without infringement of or interference with
any Intellectual Property of any other Person in any material respect and shall comply in all material respects with the terms of its Licenses. 
 5.8. Environmental Matters. Each Credit Party shall and shall cause each Person within its control to: (a) conduct its operations and keep and maintain its Real Estate in compliance with all Environmental Laws and Environmental
Permits other than noncompliance that could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; (b) implement any and all investigation, remediation, removal and response actions that are appropriate or necessary to maintain the value
and marketability of the Real Estate or to otherwise comply with Environmental Laws and Environmental Permits pertaining to the presence, generation, treatment, storage, use, disposal, transportation or Release of any Hazardous Material on, at, in,
under, above, to, from or about any of its Real Estate in all material respects; (c) notify Agent promptly after such Credit Party becomes aware of any violation of Environmental Laws or Environmental Permits or any Release on, at, in, under,
above, to, from or about any Real Estate that is reasonably likely to result in Environmental Liabilities in excess of $100,000; and (d) promptly forward to Agent a copy of any order, notice, request for information or any communication or
report received by such Credit Party in connection with any such violation or Release or any other matter relating to any Environmental Laws or Environmental Permits that could reasonably be expected to result in Environmental Liabilities in excess
of $100,000, in each case whether or not the Environmental Protection Agency or any Governmental Authority has taken or threatened any action in connection with any such violation, Release or other matter. If Agent at any time has a reasonable basis
to believe that there may be a violation of any Environmental Laws or Environmental Permits by any Credit Party or any Environmental Liability arising thereunder, or a Release of Hazardous Materials on, at, in, under, above, to, from or about any of
its Real Estate, that, in each case, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, then each Credit Party shall, upon Agent’s written request (i) cause the performance of such environmental audits including subsurface
sampling of soil and groundwater, and preparation of such environmental reports, at Borrowers’ expense, as Agent may from time to time reasonably request, which shall be conducted by reputable environmental consulting firms reasonably
acceptable to Agent and shall be in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Agent, and (ii) permit Agent or its representatives to have access to all Real Estate for the purpose of conducting such environmental audits and testing as Agent
deems appropriate, including subsurface sampling of soil and groundwater. Borrowers shall reimburse Agent for the costs of such audits and tests and the same will constitute a part of the Obligations secured hereunder. 
  

 39 

 5.9. Landlords’ Agreements, Mortgagee Agreements, Bailee Letters and Real Estate Purchases.
As reasonably requested by Agent and to the extent not otherwise addressed to Agent’s reasonable satisfaction in the Final Order, each Credit Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain a landlord’s agreement, mortgagee
agreement or bailee letter, as applicable, from the lessor of each leased property, mortgagee of owned property or bailee with respect to any warehouse, processor or converter facility or other location where Collateral is stored or located, which
agreement or letter shall contain a waiver or subordination of all Liens or claims that the landlord, mortgagee or bailee may assert against the Collateral at that location, and shall otherwise be reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to
Agent. With respect to such locations or warehouse space leased or owned as of the Closing Date and thereafter, if Agent has not received a landlord mortgagee agreement, bailee letter or entry of the Final Order providing for collateral access as of
the Closing Date (or, if later, as of the date such location is acquired or leased), any Borrower’s Eligible Inventory at that location shall, in Agent’s discretion, be excluded from the Borrowing Base or be subject to such Reserves as may
be established by Agent in its reasonable credit judgment. After the Closing Date, no real property or warehouse space shall be leased by any Credit Party, and no Inventory shall be shipped to a processor or converter under arrangements established
after the Closing Date without the prior written consent of Agent (which consent, in Agent’s discretion, may be conditioned upon the exclusion from the Borrowing Base of Eligible Inventory at that location or the establishment of Reserves
acceptable to Agent) or, unless and until a reasonably satisfactory landlord agreement or bailee letter, as appropriate, shall first have been obtained with respect to such location. Each Credit Party shall timely and fully pay and perform its
obligations under all leases and other agreements with respect to each leased location or public warehouse where any Collateral is or may be located prior to rejection under the Bankruptcy Code and subject to arrangements made in connection with the
Storehouse Chain Sale. To the extent otherwise permitted hereunder, if any Credit Party proposes to acquire a fee ownership interest in Real Estate after the Closing Date, it shall first provide to Agent a mortgage or deed of trust granting Agent a
first priority Lien on such Real Estate, together with environmental audits, mortgage title insurance commitment, real property survey, local counsel opinion(s), and, if required by Agent, supplemental casualty insurance and flood insurance, and
such other documents, instruments or agreements reasonably requested by Agent, in each case, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Agent. 
 5.10. Further Assurances. Each Credit Party executing this Agreement agrees that it shall and shall cause each other Credit Party to, at such Credit Party’s expense and upon the reasonable request of
Agent, duly execute and deliver, or cause to be duly executed and delivered, to Agent such further instruments and do and cause to be done such further acts as may be necessary or proper in the reasonable opinion of Agent to carry out more
effectively the provisions and purposes of this Agreement and each Loan Document. 
 5.11. [Intentionally Omitted]. 
 5.12. Advisers. The Credit Parties shall seek approval from the Bankruptcy Court to retain and shall, once such retention is approved, continue to
retain (i) PENTA Advisory 

  

 40 

 
Services, LLC, as business consultants and crisis managers or retain such other advisors acceptable to the Agent and on terms and conditions satisfactory to
Agent until Borrowers have substantially consummated a plan of reorganization; and (ii) FTI Consulting, Inc., to assist with the Storehouse Chain Sale. 
 5.13. Other Agreements. 
 (a) Storehouse shall have entered into a stalking horse bid
for the sale or liquidation of the entire chain of store locations of Storehouse (the “Storehouse Chain Sale”) on or before September 22, 2006, which shall provide minimum net proceeds in an amount equal to at least the result
of (x) eighty percent (80%) of the Storehouse Inventory at cost minus (y) up to $2,100,000 of Committed Inventory (as defined in Section 6.24 hereof). At least eighty-five (85%) of such proceeds shall be in cash and

	 	8.2.	Remedies. 

 (a) If any Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing, Agent may (and at the written request of the Requisite Lenders shall), notwithstanding the provisions of Section 362 of the Bankruptcy Code, without any application, motion or notice to, hearing before,
or order from, the Bankruptcy Court, suspend the Revolving Loan facility with respect to additional Advances and/or the incurrence of additional Letter of Credit Obligations, whereupon any additional Advances and additional Letter of Credit
Obligations shall be made or incurred in Agent’s sole discretion (or in the sole discretion of the Requisite Lenders, if such suspension occurred at their direction) so long as such Default or Event of Default is continuing. If any Event of
Default has occurred and is 

  

 52 

 
continuing, Agent may (and shall at the written request of Requisite Lenders), notwithstanding the provisions of Section 362 of the Bankruptcy Code,
without any application, motion or notice to, hearing before, or order from, the Bankruptcy Court, except as otherwise expressly provided herein, increase the rate of interest applicable to the Loans and the Letter of Credit Fees to the Default
Rate. 
 (b) If any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Agent may (and at the written request of the Requisite
Lenders shall), notwithstanding the provisions of Section 362 of the Bankruptcy Code, without any application, motion or notice to, hearing before, or order from, the Bankruptcy Court: (i) terminate the Revolving Loan facility with respect
to further Advances or the incurrence of further Letter of Credit Obligations; (ii) reduce the Revolving Loan Commitment from time to time; (iii) declare all or any portion of the Obligations, including all or any portion of any Loan to be
forthwith due and payable, and require that the Letter of Credit Obligations be cash collateralized in the manner set forth in Annex B, all without presentment, demand, protest or further notice of any kind, all of which are expressly
waived by Borrowers and each other Credit Party (the declaration of any of the foregoing referred to herein as a “Termination Declaration” and the date which is the earlier to occur of the Termination Declaration and the Commitment
Termination Date, the “Termination Declaration Date”); (iv) terminate, reduce or restrict the ability of the Credit Parties to use any cash collateral; or (v) exercise any rights and remedies provided to Agent under the Loan
Documents or at law or equity, including all remedies provided under the Code and pursuant to the Interim Order and the Final Order. The Credit Parties will have no right to use or seek to use cash collateral after the occurrence of an Event of
Default; provided, however, that upon the Agent providing five (5) business days’ prior notice of such occurrence and during the continuance thereof (the “Remedies Notice Period”), the Credit Parties may use cash
collateral only to the extent necessary to meet payroll obligations and expenses essential to the preservation of the Credit Parties and their estates and to seek an emergency hearing before the Bankruptcy Court for the sole purpose of contesting
whether an Event of Default has occurred. Unless the Bankruptcy Court determines during the Remedies Notice Period that an Event of Default has not occurred, the Credit Parties shall have no further right to use or seek to use cash collateral.

 8.3. Duties in the Case of Enforcement. In case one or more Events of Default have occurred and shall be continuing, and whether or
not acceleration of the Obligations shall have occurred, the Agent shall, if (a) so requested by the Requisite Lenders and (b) the Lenders have provided to the Agent such additional indemnities and assurances against expenses and
liabilities as the Agent may reasonably request, proceed to enforce the provisions of this Agreement and the other Collateral Documents authorizing the sale or other disposition of all or any part of the Collateral and exercise all or any such other
legal and equitable and other rights or remedies as it may have in respect of such Collateral. The Requisite Lenders may direct the Agent in writing as to the method and the extent of any such sale or other disposition, the Lenders hereby agreeing
to indemnify and hold the Agent harmless from all liabilities incurred in respect of all actions taken or omitted in accordance with such directions other than liabilities resulting from the Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct,
provided that the Agent need not comply with any such direction to the extent that the Agent reasonably believes the Agent’s compliance with such direction to be unlawful or commercially unreasonable in any applicable jurisdiction.

  

 53 

 8.4. Waivers by Credit Parties. Except as otherwise provided for in this Agreement or by
applicable law, each Credit Party waives (including for purposes of Section 12): (a) presentment, demand and protest and notice of presentment, dishonor, notice of intent to accelerate, notice of acceleration, protest, default,
nonpayment, maturity, release, compromise, settlement, extension or renewal of any or all commercial paper, accounts, contract rights, documents, instruments, chattel paper and guaranties at any time held by Agent on which any Credit Party may in
any way be liable, and hereby ratifies and confirms whatever Agent may do in this regard, (b) all rights to notice and a hearing prior to Agent’s taking possession or control of, or to Agent’s replevy, attachment or levy upon, the
Collateral or any bond or security that might be required by any court prior to allowing Agent to exercise any of its remedies, and (c) the benefit of all valuation, appraisal, marshaling and exemption laws. 
  

	 	9.	ASSIGNMENT AND PARTICIPATIONS; APPOINTMENT OF AGENT 

  

	 	9.1.	Assignment and Participations. 

 (a)
Subject to the terms of this Section 9.1, any Lender may make an assignment to a Qualified Assignee or any other Person of, or sell participations in, at any time or times, the Loan Documents, Loans, Letter of Credit Obligations and any
Commitment or any portion thereof or interest therein, including any Lender’s rights, title, interests, remedies, powers or duties thereunder. Any assignment by a Lender shall: (i) require the consent of Agent (which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed with respect to a Qualified Assignee) and the execution of an assignment agreement (an “Assignment Agreement”) substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit 9.1(a) and otherwise in form
and substance reasonably satisfactory to, and acknowledged by, Agent; (ii) be conditioned on such assignee Lender representing to the assigning Lender and Agent that it is purchasing the applicable Loans to be assigned to it for its own
account, for investment purposes and not with a view to the distribution thereof; (iii) after giving effect to any such partial assignment, the assignee Lender shall have Commitments in an amount at least equal to $5,000,000 and the assigning
Lender shall have retained Commitments in an amount at least equal to $5,000,000; (iv) include a payment to Agent of an assignment fee of $3,500; and (v) so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, require the consent of
Borrower Representative, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided that no such consent by the Borrower Representative shall be required for an assignment to a Qualified Assignee. In the case of an assignment by a
Lender under this Section 9.1, the assignee shall have, to the extent of such assignment, the same rights, benefits and obligations as all other Lenders hereunder. The assigning Lender shall be relieved of its obligations hereunder with
respect to its Commitments or assigned portion thereof from and after the date of such assignment. Each Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that any assignment shall give rise to a direct obligation of Borrowers to the assignee and that the
assignee shall be considered to be a “Lender”. In all instances, each Lender’s liability to make Loans hereunder shall be several and not joint and shall be limited to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the applicable Commitment. In
the event Agent or any Lender assigns or 

  

 54 

 
otherwise transfers all or any part of the Obligations, Agent or any such Lender shall so notify Borrowers and Borrowers shall, upon the request of Agent or
such Lender, execute new Notes in exchange for the Notes, if any, being assigned. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 9.1(a), any Lender may at any time pledge the Obligations held by it and such Lender’s rights
under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to a Federal Reserve Bank or a Person which otherwise then qualifies as a Qualified Assignee in respect of a warehousing, “repo” or similar arrangement, and any Lender that is an investment
fund may assign the Obligations held by it and such Lender’s rights under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to another investment fund managed by the same investment advisor; provided, that no such pledge to a Federal Reserve
Bank or such other Person shall release such Lender from such Lender’s obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document. 
 (b) Any participation by a Lender of all or any part of its Commitments shall be made with the understanding that all amounts payable by Borrowers hereunder shall be determined as if that Lender had not sold such participation, and that the
holder of any such participation shall not be entitled to require such Lender to take or omit to take any action hereunder except actions directly affecting (i) any reduction in the principal amount of, or interest rate or Fees payable with
respect to, any Loan in which such holder participates, (ii) any extension of the scheduled amortization of the principal amount of any Loan in which such holder participates or the final maturity date thereof, and (iii) any release of all
or substantially all of the Collateral (other than in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Collateral Documents or the other Loan Documents). Solely for purposes of Sections 1.13, 1.15, 1.16 and 9.8, each Borrower acknowledges and
agrees that a participation shall give rise to a direct obligation of Borrowers to the participant and the participant shall be considered to be a “Lender”. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence no Borrower or Credit Party shall
have any obligation or duty to any participant. Neither Agent nor any Lender (other than the Lender selling a participation) shall have any duty to any participant and may continue to deal solely with the Lender selling a participation as if no such
sale had occurred. 
 (c) Except as expressly provided in this Section 9.1, no Lender shall, as between Borrowers
and that Lender, or Agent and that Lender, be relieved of any of its obligations hereunder as a result of any sale, assignment, transfer or negotiation of, or granting of participation in, all or any part of the Loans, the Notes or other Obligations
owed to such Lender. 
 (d) Each Credit Party executing this Agreement shall assist any Lender permitted to sell assignments
or participations under this Section 9.1 as reasonably required to enable the assigning or selling Lender to effect any such assignment or participation, including the execution and delivery of any and all agreements, notes and other
documents and instruments as shall be requested and, if requested by Agent, the preparation of informational materials for, and the participation of management in meetings with, potential assignees or participants. Each Credit Party executing this
Agreement shall certify the correctness, completeness and accuracy of all descriptions of the Credit Parties and their respective affairs contained in any selling materials provided by them and all other information provided by them and included in
such materials. 
  

 55 

 (e) Any Lender may furnish any information concerning Credit Parties in the possession of
such Lender from time to time to assignees and participants (including prospective assignees and participants); provided that such Lender shall obtain from assignees or participants confidentiality covenants substantially equivalent to those
contained in Section 11.8. 
 (f) So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, no Lender shall
assign or sell participations in any portion of its Loans or Commitments to a potential Lender or participant, if, as of the date of the proposed assignment or sale, the assignee Lender or participant would be subject to capital adequacy or similar
requirements under Section 1.16(a), increased costs under Section 1.16(b), an inability to fund LIBOR Loans under Section 1.16(c), or withholding taxes in accordance with Section 1.15(a). 

(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a “Granting Lender”), may grant to a
special purpose funding vehicle (an “SPC”), identified as such in writing by the Granting Lender to Agent and Borrowers, the option to provide to Borrowers all or any part of any Loans that such Granting Lender would otherwise be
obligated to make to Borrowers pursuant to this Agreement; provided that, (i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any SPC to make any Loan; and (ii) if an SPC elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to
provide all or any part of such Loan, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to make such Loan pursuant to the terms hereof. The making of a Loan by an SPC hereunder shall utilize the Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same extent, and as if
such Loan were made by such Granting Lender. No SPC shall be liable for any indemnity or similar payment obligation under this Agreement (all liability for which shall remain with the Granting Lender). Any SPC may (i) with notice to, but
without the prior written consent of, Borrowers and Agent and without paying any processing fee therefor assign all or a portion of its interests in any Loans to the Granting Lender or to any financial institutions (consented to by Borrowers and
Agent) providing liquidity and/or credit support to or for the account of such SPC to support the funding or maintenance of Loans and (ii) disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its Loans to any rating agency,
commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety, guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPC. This Section 9.1(g) may not be amended without the prior written consent of each Granting Lender, all or any of whose Loans are
being funded by an SPC at the time of such amendment. For the avoidance of doubt, the Granting Lender shall for all purposes, including without limitation, the approval of any amendment or waiver of any provision of any Loan Document or the
obligation to pay any amount otherwise payable by the Granting Lender under the Loan Documents, continue to be the Lender of record hereunder. 
 9.2. Appointment of Agent. GE Capital is hereby appointed to act on behalf of all Lenders as Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Lender hereby authorizes GE
Capital to consent, on behalf of each Lender, to an Interim Order substantially in the form attached as Exhibit A hereto and a Final Order to be negotiated between the Borrowers, Agent and the Committee. The provisions of this
Section 9.2 are solely for the benefit of Agent and Lenders and no Credit Party nor any 

  

 56 

 
other Person shall have any rights as a third party beneficiary of any of the provisions hereof. In performing its functions and duties under this Agreement
and the other Loan Documents, Agent shall act solely as an agent of Lenders and does not assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation toward or relationship of agency or trust with or for any Credit Party or any other Person. Agent
shall have no duties or responsibilities except for those expressly set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. The duties of Agent shall be mechanical and administrative in nature and Agent shall not have, or be deemed to have, by
reason of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or otherwise a fiduciary relationship in respect of any Lender. Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not
be liable for failure to disclose, any information relating to any Credit Party or any of their respective Subsidiaries or any Account Debtor that is communicated to or obtained by GE Capital or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. Neither Agent
nor any of its Affiliates nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents or representatives shall be liable to any Lender for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it hereunder or under any other Loan Document, or in
connection herewith or therewith, except for damages caused by its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct. 
 If Agent shall
request instructions from Requisite Lenders or all affected Lenders with respect to any act or action (including failure to act) in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, then Agent shall be entitled to refrain from such act or
taking such action unless and until Agent shall have received instructions from Requisite Lenders or all affected Lenders, as the case may be, and Agent shall not incur liability to any Person by reason of so refraining. Agent shall be fully
justified in failing or refusing to take any action hereunder or under any other Loan Document (a) if such action would, in the opinion of Agent, be contrary to law or the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (b) if such
action would, in the opinion of Agent, expose Agent to Environmental Liabilities or (c) if Agent shall not first be indemnified to its satisfaction against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or
continuing to take any such action. Without limiting the foregoing, no Lender shall have any right of action whatsoever against Agent as a result of Agent acting or refraining from acting hereunder or under any other Loan Document in accordance with
the instructions of Requisite Lenders or all affected Lenders, as applicable. 
 Each Lender authorizes the Agent to release any Collateral,
consent to any matter and to otherwise take any action, in each case, which is either permitted hereunder or which has been approved hereunder. 
 9.3. Agent’s Reliance, Etc. Neither Agent nor any of its Affiliates nor any of their respective directors, officers, agents or employees shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them under or in
connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, except for damages caused by its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Agent: (a) may treat the payee of any Note as
the holder thereof until Agent receives written notice of the assignment or transfer thereof signed by such payee and in form reasonably satisfactory to Agent; (b) may consult with legal counsel, independent public accountants and other experts
selected by it and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts; (c) makes no warranty or representation to any Lender and shall not be
responsible to any Lender for any statements, warranties or 

  

 57 

 
representations made in or in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents; (d) shall not have any duty to ascertain or to inquire as to
the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents on the part of any Credit Party or to inspect the Collateral (including the books and records) of any Credit Party;
(e) shall not be responsible to any Lender for the due execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto
or thereto; and (f) shall incur no liability under or in respect of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents by acting upon any notice, consent, certificate or other instrument or writing (which may be by telecopy, telegram, cable or telex)
believed by it to be genuine and signed or sent by the proper party or parties. 
 9.4. GE Capital and Affiliates. With respect to its
Commitments hereunder, GE Capital shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not Agent; and the term “Lender” or
“Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated, include GE Capital in its individual capacity. GE Capital and its Affiliates may lend money to, invest in, and generally engage in any kind of business with, any Credit Party, any of
their Affiliates and any Person who may do business with or own securities of any Credit Party or any such Affiliate, all as if GE Capital were not Agent and without any duty to account therefor to Lenders. GE Capital and its Affiliates may accept
fees and other consideration from any Credit Party for services in connection with this Agreement or otherwise without having to account for the same to Lenders. 
 9.5. Lender Credit Decision. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon Agent or any other Lender and based on the Financial Statements referred to in
Section 3.4(a) and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit and financial analysis of the Credit Parties and its own decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that
it will, independently and without reliance upon Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this
Agreement. Each Lender acknowledges the potential conflict of interest of each other Lender as a result of Lenders holding disproportionate interests in the Loans, and expressly consents to, and waives any claim based upon, such conflict of
interest. 
 9.6. Indemnification. Lenders agree to indemnify Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by Credit Parties and without
limiting the obligations of Credit Parties hereunder), ratably according to their respective Pro Rata Shares, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or
disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever that may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any action taken or omitted to be taken by Agent in
connection therewith; provided, that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from Agent’s gross
negligence or willful misconduct. Without limiting the foregoing, each Lender agrees to reimburse Agent promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable counsel fees) incurred by Agent in connection with
the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement and each
other Loan Document, to the extent that Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by Credit Parties. 
  

 58 

 9.7. Successor Agent. Agent may resign at any time by giving not less than thirty
(30) days’ prior written notice thereof to Lenders and Borrower Representative. Upon any such resignation, the Requisite Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Agent. If no successor Agent shall have been so appointed by the
Requisite Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the resigning Agent’s giving notice of resignation, then the resigning Agent may, on behalf of Lenders, appoint a successor Agent, which shall be a
Lender, if a Lender is willing to accept such appointment, or otherwise shall be a commercial bank or financial institution or a subsidiary of a commercial bank or financial institution if such commercial bank or financial institution is organized
under the laws of the United States of America or of any State thereof and has a combined capital and surplus of at least $300,000,000. If no successor Agent has been appointed pursuant to the foregoing, within thirty (30) days after the date
such notice of resignation was given by the resigning Agent, such resignation shall become effective and the Requisite Lenders shall thereafter perform all the duties of Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Requisite Lenders appoint a
successor Agent as provided above. Any successor Agent appointed by Requisite Lenders hereunder shall be subject to the approval of Borrower Representative, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided that such approval
shall not be required if a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Agent hereunder by a successor Agent, such successor Agent shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights,
powers, privileges and duties of the resigning Agent. Upon the earlier of the acceptance of any appointment as Agent hereunder by a successor Agent or the effective date of the resigning Agent’s resignation, the resigning Agent shall be
discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, except that any indemnity rights or other rights in favor of such resigning Agent shall continue. After any resigning Agent’s resignation hereunder,
the provisions of this Section 9 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. 
 9.8. Setoff and Sharing of Payments. In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under applicable law and not by way of limitation of any
such rights, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default and subject to Section 9.9(f), each Lender is hereby authorized (notwithstanding the provisions of Section 362 of the Bankruptcy Code, without any
application, motion or notice to, hearing before, or order from, the Bankruptcy Court) at any time or from time to time, without prior notice to any Credit Party or to any Person other than Agent, any such notice being hereby expressly waived, to
offset and to appropriate and to apply any and all balances held by it at any of its offices for the account of any Borrower or Guarantor (regardless of whether such balances are then due to such Borrower or Guarantor) and any other properties or
assets at any time held or owing by that Lender or that holder to or for the credit or for the account of any Borrower or Guarantor against and on account of any of the Obligations that are not paid when due; provided that the Lender exercising such
offset rights shall give notice thereof to the affected Credit Party promptly after exercising such rights. Any Lender exercising a right of setoff or otherwise receiving any payment on account of the Obligations in excess of its Pro Rata Share
thereof shall purchase for cash (and the other Lenders or holders shall sell) such participations in each such other Lender’s or holder’s 

  

 59 

 
Pro Rata Share of the Obligations as would be necessary to cause such Lender to share the amount so offset or otherwise received with each other Lender or
holder in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares (other than offset rights exercised by any Lender with respect to Sections 1.13, 1.15 or 1.16). Each Revolving Lender’s obligation under this Section 9.8 shall be in
addition to and not in limitation of its obligations to purchase a participation in an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of the Swing Line Loans under Section 1.1. Each Credit Party that is a Borrower or Guarantor agrees, to the fullest
extent permitted by law (notwithstanding the provisions of Section 362 of the Bankruptcy Code, without any application, motion or notice to, hearing before, or order from, the Bankruptcy Court), that (a) any Lender may exercise its right
to offset with respect to amounts in excess of its Pro Rata Share of the Obligations and may sell participations in such amounts so offset to other Lenders and holders and (b) any Lender so purchasing a participation in the Loans made or other
Obligations held by other Lenders or holders may exercise all rights of offset, bankers’ lien, counterclaim or similar rights with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender or holder were a direct holder of the Loans and the
other Obligations in the amount of such participation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if all or any portion of the offset amount or payment otherwise received is thereafter recovered from the Lender that has exercised the right of offset, the
purchase of participations by that Lender shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored without interest. 
 9.9. Advances; Payments;
Non-Funding Lenders; Information; Actions in Concert. 
  

	 	(a)	Advances; Payments. 

 (i) Revolving
Lenders shall refund or participate in the Swing Line Loan in accordance with clauses (iii) of Section 1.1(c). If the Swing Line Lender declines to make a Swing Line Loan or if Swing Line Availability is zero, Agent shall
notify Revolving Lenders, promptly after receipt of a Notice of Revolving Credit Advance and in any event prior to 1:00 p.m. (New York time) on the date such Notice of Revolving Advance is received, by telecopy, telephone or other similar form of
transmission. Each Revolving Lender shall make the amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such Revolving Credit Advance available to Agent in same day funds by wire transfer to Agent’s account as set forth in Annex H not later
than 3:00 p.m. (New York time) on the requested funding date, in the case of an Index Rate Loan, and not later than 12 noon (New York time) on the requested funding date, in the case of a LIBOR Loan. After receipt of such wire transfers (or, in the
Agent’s sole discretion, before receipt of such wire transfers), subject to the terms hereof, Agent shall make the requested Revolving Credit Advance to the Borrower designated by Borrower Representative in the Notice of Revolving Credit
Advance. All payments by each Revolving Lender shall be made without setoff, counterclaim or deduction of any kind. 
 (ii)
Not less than once during each calendar week or more frequently at Agent’s election (each, a “Settlement Date”), Agent shall advise each Lender by telephone, or telecopy of the amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of
principal, interest and Fees paid for the benefit of Lenders with respect to each applicable Loan. Provided that each Lender has funded all payments or Advances required to be made by it and has purchased all participations required to be 

  

 60 

 
purchased by it under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as of such Settlement Date, Agent shall pay to each Lender such Lender’s Pro Rata
Share of principal, interest and Fees paid by Borrowers since the previous Settlement Date for the benefit of such Lender on the Loans held by it. To the extent that any Lender (a “Non-Funding Lender”) has failed to fund all such
payments and Advances or failed to fund the purchase of all such participations, Agent shall be entitled to set off the funding short-fall against that Non-Funding Lender’s Pro Rata Share of all payments received from Borrowers. Such
payments shall be made by wire transfer to such Lender’s account (as specified by such Lender in Annex H or the applicable Assignment Agreement) not later than 2:00 p.m. (New York time) on the next Business Day following each Settlement
Date. 
 (b) Availability of Lender’s Pro Rata Share. Agent may assume that each Revolving Lender will make its
Pro Rata Share of each Revolving Credit Advance available to Agent on each funding date. If such Pro Rata Share is not, in fact, paid to Agent by such Revolving Lender when due, Agent will be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such
Revolving Lender without setoff, counterclaim or deduction of any kind. If any Revolving Lender fails to pay the amount of its Pro Rata Share forthwith upon Agent’s demand, Agent shall promptly notify Borrower Representative and Borrowers shall
immediately repay such amount to Agent. Nothing in this Section 9.9(b) or elsewhere in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall be deemed to require Agent to advance funds on behalf of any Revolving Lender or to relieve any
Revolving Lender from its obligation to fulfill its Commitments hereunder or to prejudice any rights that Borrowers may have against any Revolving Lender as a result of any default by such Revolving Lender hereunder. To the extent that Agent
advances funds to any Borrower on behalf of any Revolving Lender and is not reimbursed therefor on the same Business Day as such Advance is made, Agent shall be entitled to retain for its account all interest accrued on such Advance until reimbursed
by the applicable Revolving Lender. 
 (c) Return of Payments. 
 (i) If Agent pays an amount to a Lender under this Agreement in the belief or expectation that a related payment has been or will be
received by Agent from Borrowers and such related payment is not received by Agent, then Agent will be entitled to recover such amount from such Lender on demand without setoff, counterclaim or deduction of any kind. 
 (ii) If Agent determines at any time that any amount received by Agent under this Agreement must be returned to any Borrower or paid to
any other Person pursuant to any insolvency law or otherwise, then, notwithstanding any other term or condition of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, Agent will not be required to distribute any portion thereof to any Lender. In addition,
each Lender will repay to Agent on demand any portion of such amount that Agent has distributed to such Lender, together with interest at such rate, if any, as Agent is required to pay to any Borrower or such other Person, without setoff,
counterclaim or deduction of any kind. 
  

 61 

 (d) Non-Funding Lenders. The failure of any Non-Funding Lender to make any
Revolving Credit Advance or any payment required by it hereunder or to purchase any participation in any Swing Line Loan to be made or purchased by it on the date specified therefor shall not relieve any other Lender (each such other Revolving
Lender, an “Other Lender”) of its obligations to make such Advance or purchase such participation on such date, but neither any Other Lender nor Agent shall be responsible for the failure of any Non-Funding Lender to make an Advance,
purchase a participation or make any other payment required hereunder. Notwithstanding anything set forth herein to the contrary, a Non-Funding Lender shall not have any voting or consent rights under or with respect to any Loan Document or
constitute a “Lender” or a “Revolving Lender” (or be included in the calculation of “Requisite Lenders”) for any voting or consent rights under or with respect to any Loan Document. At Borrower Representative’s
request, Agent or a Person reasonably acceptable to Agent shall have the right with Agent’s consent and in Agent’s sole discretion (but shall have no obligation) to purchase from any Non-Funding Lender, and each Non-Funding Lender agrees
that it shall, at Agent’s request, sell and assign to Agent or such Person, all of the Commitments of that Non-Funding Lender for an amount equal to the principal balance of all Loans held by such Non-Funding Lender and all accrued interest and
fees with respect thereto through the date of sale, such purchase and sale to be consummated pursuant to an executed Assignment Agreement. 
 (e) Dissemination of Information. Agent shall use reasonable efforts to provide Lenders with any notice of Default or Event of Default received by Agent from, or delivered by Agent to, any Credit Party, with
notice of any Event of Default of which Agent has actually become aware and with notice of any action taken by Agent following any Event of Default; provided, that Agent shall not be liable to any Lender for any failure to do so, except to
the extent that such failure is attributable to Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. Lenders acknowledge that Borrowers are required to provide Financial Statements and Collateral Reports to Lenders in accordance with Annexes E
and F hereto and agree that Agent shall have no duty to provide the same to Lenders. 
 (f) Actions in Concert.
Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, each Lender hereby agrees with each other Lender that no Lender shall take any action to protect or enforce its rights arising out of this Agreement or the Notes (including exercising any
rights of setoff) without first obtaining the prior written consent of Agent and Requisite Lenders, it being the intent of Lenders that any such action to protect or enforce rights under this Agreement and the Notes shall be taken in concert and at
the direction or with the consent of Agent or the Requisite Lenders.

 62 

 
hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents without the prior express written consent of Agent and Lenders. Any such purported assignment, transfer,
hypothecation or other conveyance by any Credit Party without the prior express written consent of Agent and Lenders shall be void. The terms and provisions of this Agreement are for the purpose of defining the relative rights and obligations of
each Credit Party, Agent and Lenders with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby and no Person shall be a third party beneficiary of any of the terms and provisions of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents. 
  

	 	11.	MISCELLANEOUS 

 11.1. Complete Agreement;
Modification of Agreement. The Loan Documents constitute the complete agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter thereof and may not be modified, altered or amended except as set forth in Section 11.2. Any
letter of interest, commitment letter, fee letter or confidentiality agreement, if any, between any Credit Party and Agent or any Lender or any of their respective Affiliates, predating this Agreement and relating to a financing of substantially
similar form, purpose or effect shall be superseded by this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Fee Letter shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and shall continue to be binding obligations of the parties. 

11.2. Amendments and Waivers. 
 (a) Except for actions expressly permitted to be taken by Agent, no amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any consent to any departure by any
Credit Party therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by Agent and Borrowers, and by Requisite Lenders or all affected Lenders, as applicable. Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, all such
amendments, modifications, terminations or waivers requiring the consent of any Lenders shall require the written consent of Requisite Lenders. 
 (b) No amendment, modification, termination or waiver of or consent with respect to any provision of this Agreement that increases the percentage advance rates set forth in the definition of the Borrowing Base or that
makes less restrictive the nondiscretionary criteria for exclusion from Eligible Accounts, Eligible Inventory, Eligible Real Estate or Eligible Life Insurance Policies, shall be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by Agent, all
Revolving Lenders, and Borrowers. 
 (c) No amendment, modification, termination or waiver shall, unless in writing and signed
by Agent and each Lender directly affected thereby: (i) increase the principal amount of any Lender’s Commitment (which action shall be deemed only to affect those Lenders whose Commitments are increased and may be approved by Requisite
Lenders, including those Lenders whose Commitments are increased); (ii) reduce the principal of, rate of interest on or Fees payable with respect to any Loan or Letter of Credit Obligations of any affected Lender; provided,
however, that only the consent of the Requisite Lenders shall be necessary to amend the definition of “Default Rate” or to waive any obligation of the Borrowers to pay interest or Letter of Credit Fees at the Default Rate;
(iii) extend any scheduled payment date (other than payment dates of 

  

 63 

 
mandatory prepayments under Section 1.3(b)(ii)-(iv)) or final maturity date of the principal amount of any Loan of any affected Lender;
(iv) waive, forgive, defer, extend or postpone any payment of interest or Fees as to any affected Lender; (v) release any Guaranty or, except as otherwise permitted herein or in the other Loan Documents, release, or permit any Credit Party
to sell or otherwise dispose of, any Collateral with a value exceeding $2,500,000 in the aggregate (which action shall be deemed to directly affect all Lenders); (vi) change the percentage of the Commitments or of the aggregate unpaid principal
amount of the Loans that shall be required for Lenders or any of them to take any action hereunder; (vii) amend Section 1.11; and (viii) amend or waive this Section 11.2 or the definitions of the terms “Requisite
Lenders” insofar as such definitions affect the substance of this Section 11.2. Furthermore, no amendment, modification, termination or waiver affecting the rights or duties of Agent or L/C Issuer under this Agreement or any other
Loan Document, including any increases in the L/C Sublimit or any release of any Guaranty or Collateral requiring a writing signed by all Lenders, shall be effective unless in writing and signed by Agent or L/C Issuer, as the case may be, in
addition to Lenders required herein to take such action. Each amendment, modification, termination or waiver shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which it was given. No amendment, modification,
termination or waiver shall be required for Agent to take additional Collateral pursuant to any Loan Document. No amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any provision of any Note shall be effective without the written concurrence of the
holder of that Note. No notice to or demand on any Credit Party in any case shall entitle such Credit Party or any other Credit Party to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. Any amendment, modification,
termination, waiver or consent effected in accordance with this Section 11.2 shall be binding upon each holder of the Notes at the time outstanding and each future holder of the Notes. 
 (d) If, in connection with any proposed amendment, modification, waiver or termination (a “Proposed Change”) requiring
the consent of all affected Lenders, the consent of the Requisite Lenders is obtained, but the consent of other Lenders whose consent is required is not obtained (any such Lender whose consent is not obtained being referred to as a
“Non-Consenting Lender”), then, so long as Agent is not a Non-Consenting Lender, at Borrower Representative’s request, Agent or a Person reasonably acceptable to Agent shall have the right with Agent’s consent and in
Agent’s sole discretion (but shall have no obligation) to purchase from such Non-Consenting Lenders, and such Non-Consenting Lenders agree that they shall, upon Agent’s request, sell and assign to Agent or such Person, all of the
Commitments of such Non-Consenting Lenders for an amount equal to the principal balance of all Loans held by the Non-Consenting Lenders and all accrued interest and Fees with respect thereto through the date of sale, such purchase and sale to be
consummated pursuant to an executed Assignment Agreement. 
 (e) Upon payment in full in cash and performance of all of the
Obligations (other than indemnification Obligations), termination of the Commitments and a release of all claims against Agent and Lenders, and so long as no suits, actions, proceedings or claims are pending or threatened against any Indemnified
Person asserting any damages, losses or liabilities that are Indemnified Liabilities, Agent shall deliver to Borrowers termination statements, mortgage releases and other documents necessary or appropriate to evidence the termination of the Liens
securing payment of the Obligations.

any litigation, contest, dispute, suit, case, proceeding or action, and any appeal or review thereof, in connection with a case commenced by or against any or all of the Credit Parties or any other Person that may be obligated to Agent by virtue of
the Loan Documents; including any such litigation, contest, dispute, suit, proceeding or action arising in connection with any work-out or restructuring of the Loans during the pendency of one or more Events of Default; provided that in the
case of reimbursement of counsel for Lenders other than Agent, such reimbursement shall be limited to one counsel for all such Lenders; provided, further, that no Person shall be entitled to reimbursement under this clause (c) in
respect of any litigation, contest, dispute, suit, proceeding or action to the extent any of the foregoing results from such Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct or such Person’s bad faith breach of its obligations, duties or
responsibilities under any of the Loan Documents; 
 (d) any attempt to enforce any remedies of Agent against any or all of

and any subsequent case under Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code,

 11.4. No Waiver.
Agent’s or any Lender’s failure, at any time or times, to require strict performance by the Credit Parties of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall not waive, affect or diminish any right of Agent or such Lender
thereafter to demand strict compliance and performance herewith or therewith. Any suspension or waiver of an Event of Default shall not suspend, waive or affect any other Event of Default whether the same is prior or subsequent thereto and whether
the same or of a different type. Subject to the provisions of Section 11.2, none of the undertakings, agreements, warranties, covenants and representations of any Credit Party contained in this Agreement or any of the other Loan
Documents and no Default or Event of Default by any Credit Party shall be deemed to have been suspended or waived by Agent or any Lender, unless such waiver or suspension is by an instrument in writing signed by an officer of or other authorized
employee of Agent and the applicable required Lenders, and directed to Borrowers specifying such suspension or waiver. 
 11.5.
Remedies. Agent’s and Lenders’ rights and remedies under this Agreement shall be cumulative and nonexclusive of any other rights and remedies that Agent or any Lender may have under any other agreement, including the other Loan
Documents, by operation of law or otherwise. Recourse to the Collateral shall not be required. 
 11.6. Severability. Wherever
possible, each provision of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be interpreted in such a manner as to be effective and valid under 

  

 66 

 
applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision
shall be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement or such other Loan Document. 
 11.7. Conflict of Terms. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents by specific reference to the applicable
provisions of this Agreement, and subject to the immediately following sentence, if any provision contained in this Agreement conflicts with any provision in any of the other Loan Documents, the provision contained in this Agreement shall govern and
control. NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, IF ANY PROVISION IN THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT CONFLICTS WITH ANY PROVISION IN THE INTERIM ORDER OR FINAL ORDER, THE PROVISION IN THE INTERIM ORDER OR FINAL ORDER SHALL GOVERN AND CONTROL.

Lender applies to maintaining the confidentiality of its own confidential information) to maintain as confidential all confidential information provided to them by the Credit Parties and designated as confidential for a period of two (2) years
following receipt thereof, except that Agent and any Lender may disclose such information (a) to Persons employed or engaged by Agent or such Lender; (b) to any bona fide assignee or participant or potential assignee or participant that

in clause (a) above); (c) as required or requested by any Governmental Authority or reasonably believed by Agent or such Lender to be compelled by any court decree, subpoena or legal or administrative order or process; (d) as,
on the advice of Agent’s or such Lender’s counsel, is required by law; (e) in connection with the exercise of any right or remedy under the Loan Documents or in connection with any Litigation to which Agent or such Lender is a party;
or (f) that ceases to be confidential through no fault of Agent or any Lender. 
 11.9. GOVERNING LAW. EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE
EXPRESSLY PROVIDED IN ANY OF THE LOAN DOCUMENTS, IN ALL RESPECTS, INCLUDING ALL MATTERS OF CONSTRUCTION, VALIDITY AND PERFORMANCE, THE LOAN DOCUMENTS AND THE OBLIGATIONS SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE
INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK APPLICABLE TO CONTRACTS MADE AND PERFORMED IN THAT STATE AND ANY APPLICABLE LAWS OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA (INCLUDING THE BANKRUPTCY CODE). EACH CREDIT PARTY HEREBY CONSENTS AND AGREES THAT THE BANKRUPTCY
COURT SHALL HAVE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION TO HEAR AND DETERMINE ANY CLAIMS OR DISPUTES BETWEEN THE CREDIT PARTIES, AGENT AND LENDERS PERTAINING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS OR TO ANY MATTER ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS
AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS; PROVIDED, THAT AGENT, LENDERS AND THE CREDIT PARTIES ACKNOWLEDGE THAT ANY APPEALS FROM THE BANKRUPTCY COURT MAY HAVE TO BE HEARD BY A COURT OTHER THAN THE BANKRUPTCY COURT; PROVIDED
FURTHER, THAT NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE DEEMED OR OPERATE TO 

  

 67 

 
PRECLUDE AGENT 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 AGENT. EACH CREDIT PARTY EXPRESSLY SUBMITS AND CONSENTS IN ADVANCE TO SUCH JURISDICTION IN ANY ACTION OR SUIT COMMENCED IN ANY SUCH COURT, AND EACH CREDIT PARTY HEREBY WAIVES ANY
OBJECTION THAT SUCH CREDIT PARTY 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. EACH
CREDIT PARTY HEREBY WAIVES PERSONAL SERVICE OF THE SUMMONS, COMPLAINT AND OTHER PROCESS ISSUED IN ANY 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
SUCH CREDIT PARTY AT THE ADDRESS SET FORTH IN ANNEX I OF THIS AGREEMENT AND THAT SERVICE SO MADE SHALL BE DEEMED COMPLETED UPON THE EARLIER OF SUCH CREDIT PARTY’S ACTUAL RECEIPT THEREOF OR THREE (3) DAYS AFTER DEPOSIT IN THE UNITED
STATES MAILS, PROPER POSTAGE PREPAID. 
 11.10. Notices. (a) Addresses. All notices, demands, requests, directions and
other communications required or expressly authorized to be made by this Agreement shall, whether or not specified to be in writing but unless otherwise expressly specified to be given by any other means, be given in writing and (i) addressed
to (A) the party to be notified and sent to the address or facsimile number indicated in Annex I, or (B) otherwise to the party to be notified at its address specified on the signature page of any applicable Assignment Agreement,
(ii) posted to Intralinks® (to the extent such system is available and set up by or
at the direction of the Agent prior to posting) in an appropriate location by uploading such notice, demand, request, direction or other communication to www.intralinks.com, faxing it to 866-545-6600 with an appropriate bar-coded fax coversheet or
using such other means of posting to Intralinks® as may be available and reasonably
acceptable to the Agent prior to such posting, (iii) posted to any other E-System set up by or at the direction of Agent in an appropriate location or (iv) addressed to such other address as shall be notified in writing (A) in the
case of Borrowers, Agent and Swing Line Lender, to the other parties hereto and (B) in the case of all other parties, to Borrower Representative and Agent. Transmission by electronic mail (including E-Fax, even if transmitted to the fax numbers
set forth in clause (i) above) shall not be sufficient or effective to transmit any such notice under this clause (a) unless such transmission is an available means to post to any E-System. 
 (b) Effectiveness. All communications described in clause (a) above and all other notices, demands, requests and other communications
made in connection with this Agreement shall be effective and be deemed to have been received (i) if delivered by hand, upon personal delivery, (ii) if delivered by overnight courier service, one Business Day after delivery to such courier
service, (iii) if delivered by mail, when deposited in the mails, (iv) if delivered by facsimile (other than to post to an E-System pursuant to clause (a)(ii) or (a)(iii) above), upon sender’s receipt of confirmation of proper

 68

declaration or other communication to any Person (other than Borrower Representative or Agent) designated in Annex I to receive copies shall in no way adversely affect the effectiveness of such notice, demand, request, consent, approval, declaration
or other communication. The giving of any notice required hereunder may be waived in writing by the party entitled to receive such notice. 
 11.11. Section Titles. The Section titles and Table of Contents contained in this Agreement are and shall be without substantive meaning or content of any kind whatsoever and are not a part of the agreement between the parties
hereto. 
 11.12. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of separate counterparts, each of which shall
collectively and separately constitute one agreement. 
 11.13. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. BECAUSE DISPUTES ARISING IN CONNECTION WITH
COMPLEX FINANCIAL TRANSACTIONS ARE MOST QUICKLY AND ECONOMICALLY RESOLVED BY AN EXPERIENCED AND EXPERT PERSON AND THE PARTIES WISH APPLICABLE STATE AND FEDERAL LAWS TO APPLY (RATHER THAN ARBITRATION RULES), THE PARTIES DESIRE THAT THEIR DISPUTES BE
RESOLVED BY A JUDGE APPLYING SUCH APPLICABLE LAWS. THEREFOR, TO ACHIEVE THE BEST COMBINATION OF THE BENEFITS OF THE JUDICIAL SYSTEM AND OF ARBITRATION, THE PARTIES HERETO WAIVE ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, SUIT, OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT TO
RESOLVE ANY DISPUTE, WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE, AMONG AGENT, LENDERS AND ANY CREDIT PARTY ARISING OUT OF, CONNECTED WITH, RELATED TO, OR INCIDENTAL TO THE RELATIONSHIP ESTABLISHED AMONG THEM IN CONNECTION WITH, THIS AGREEMENT
OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS OR THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED THERETO. 
 11.14. Press Releases and Related Matters. Each Credit
Party executing this Agreement agrees that neither it nor its Affiliates will in the future issue any press releases or other public disclosure using the name of GE Capital or its affiliates or referring to this Agreement, the other Loan Documents
or the Related Transactions Documents without at least two (2) Business Days’ prior notice to GE Capital and without the prior written consent of GE Capital unless (and only to the extent that) such Credit Party or Affiliate is required to
do so under law and then, in any event, such Credit Party or Affiliate will consult with GE Capital before issuing such press release or other public disclosure. Each Credit Party consents to the publication by Agent or any Lender of advertising
material relating to the financing transactions contemplated by this Agreement using Borrower’s name, product photographs, logo or trademark. Agent reserves the right to provide to industry trade organizations information necessary and
customary for inclusion in league table measurements. 
 11.15. Reinstatement. This Agreement shall remain in full force and effect
and shall continue to be effective or to be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment and performance of the Obligations, or any part thereof, is, pursuant to applicable law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored
or returned by any obligee of the Obligations, 

  

 69 

 
whether as a “voidable preference,” “fraudulent conveyance,” or otherwise, all as though such payment or performance had not been made.
In the event that any payment, or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, the Obligations shall be reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned. 
 11.16. Advice of Counsel. Each of the parties represents to each other party hereto that it has discussed this Agreement and, specifically, the
provisions of Sections 11.9 and 11.13, with its counsel. 
 11.17. No Strict Construction. The parties hereto have
participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties hereto and no presumption or
burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any provisions of this Agreement. 
 11.18.
Parties Including Trustees; Bankruptcy Court Proceedings. This Agreement, the other Loan Documents, and all Liens and other rights and privileges created hereby or pursuant hereto or to any other Loan Document shall be binding upon each
Credit Party, the estate of each Borrower, and any trustee, other estate representative or any successor in interest of any Borrower in any Chapter 11 Case or any subsequent case commenced under Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code, and shall
not be subject to Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of, the successors of Agent and Lenders and their respective assigns, transferees and endorsees.
The Liens created by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be and remain valid and perfected in the event of the substantive consolidation or conversion of any Chapter 11 Case or any other bankruptcy case of any Credit Party to a
case under Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code or in the event of dismissal of any Chapter 11 Case or the release of any Collateral from the jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court for any reason, without the necessity that Agent file financing
statements or otherwise perfect its Liens under applicable law. No Credit Party may assign, transfer, hypothecate or otherwise convey its rights, benefits, obligations or duties hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents without the prior
express written consent of Agent and Lenders. Any such purported assignment, transfer, hypothecation or other conveyance by any Credit Party without the prior express written consent of Agent and Lenders shall be void. The terms and provisions of
this Agreement are for the purpose of defining the relative rights and obligations of each Credit Party, Agent and Lenders with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby and no Person shall be a third party beneficiary of any of the terms and
provisions of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents. 
 11.19. Pre-Petition Loan Documents. Borrowers hereby agree that
(i) this Agreement is separate and distinct from the Pre-Petition Loan Agreement and (ii) the Pre-Petition Loan Agreement is in full force and effect. Borrowers further agree that by entering into this Agreement, Lenders do not waive any
Default or Event of Default under the Pre-Petition Loan Documents or any of their Liens, claims, priorities, rights and remedies thereunder. 
 11.20. USA PATRIOT Act Notice. Each Lender that is subject to the Patriot Act (as hereinafter defined) and Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies each Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the USA
Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 

  

 70 

 
(signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Patriot Act”), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each
Borrower, which information includes the name and address of each Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender or Agent, as applicable, to identify such Borrower in accordance with the Patriot Act. 
 11.21. Subordination. 
 (a) Each Credit Party covenants and agrees that the payment of any indebtedness and all obligations and liabilities owing by any Credit Party in favor of any other Credit Party, whether now existing or hereafter incurred (collectively, the
“Intercompany Obligations”) is subordinated, to the extent and in the manner provided in this Section 11.21, to the prior payment in full in cash of all Obligations owed or hereafter owing to Agent and Lenders by the
Borrowers and that such subordination is for the benefit of Agent for itself and Lenders. 
 (b) Each Credit Party hereby
(i) authorizes Agent on behalf of Lenders to demand specific performance of the terms of this Section 11.21 at any time when any Credit Party shall have failed to comply with any provisions of this Section 11.21 which
are applicable to it and (ii) irrevocably waives any defense based on the adequacy of a remedy at law, which might be asserted as a bar to such remedy of specific performance. 
 (c) Upon any distribution of assets of any Credit Party in any dissolution, winding up, liquidation or reorganization (whether in
bankruptcy, insolvency or receivership proceedings or upon an assignment for the benefit of creditors or otherwise): 
 (i)
Agent and Lenders shall first be entitled to receive payment in full in cash of the Obligations before any Credit Party is entitled to receive any payment on account of the Intercompany Obligations. 
 (ii) Any payment or distribution of assets of any Credit Party of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, to
which any other Credit Party would be entitled except for the provisions of this Section 11.21(c), shall be paid by the liquidating trustee or agent or other Person making such payment or distribution directly to Agent for the benefit of
the Agent and the Lenders in the manner set forth herein, to the extent necessary to make payment in full in cash of all Obligations remaining unpaid after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution or provisions therefor to Agent for
itself and Lenders. 
 (iii) In the event that notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 11.21(c),
any payment or distribution of assets of any Credit Party of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, shall be received by any other Credit Party on account of any Intercompany Obligations before all Obligations are paid in
full in cash, such payment or distribution shall be received and held in trust for and shall be paid over to Agent for itself and Lenders for application to the payment of the Obligations until all of the Obligations shall have been paid in full in
cash, after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution or provision therefor to Agent for itself and Lenders. 
  

 71 

 (d) No right of Agent, any Lender or any other present or future holders of the
Obligations to enforce subordination as provided herein shall at any time in any way be prejudiced or impaired by any act or failure to act on the part of any Credit Party or by any act or failure to act, in good faith, by any Credit Party, or by
any noncompliance by any Credit Party with the terms of the Intercompany Obligations, regardless of any knowledge thereof which any Credit Party may have or be otherwise charged with. 
  

	 	12.	CROSS-GUARANTY 

 12.1. Cross-Guaranty. Each
Borrower hereby agrees that such Borrower is jointly and severally liable for, and hereby absolutely and unconditionally guarantees to Agent and Lenders and their respective successors and assigns, the full and prompt payment (whether at stated
maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) and performance of, all Obligations owed or hereafter owing to Agent and Lenders by each other Borrower. Each Borrower agrees that its guaranty obligation hereunder is a continuing guaranty of payment and
performance and not of collection, that its obligations under this Section 12 shall not be discharged until payment and performance, in full, of the Obligations has occurred, and that its obligations under this Section 12
shall be absolute and unconditional, irrespective of, and unaffected by, 
 (a) the genuineness, validity, regularity,
enforceability or any future amendment of, or change in, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, document or instrument to which any Borrower is or may become a party; 
 (b) the absence of any action to enforce this Agreement (including this Section 12) or any other Loan Document or the waiver
or consent by Agent and Lenders with respect to any of the provisions thereof; 
 (c) the existence, value or condition of, or
failure to perfect its Lien against, any security for the Obligations or any action, or the absence of any action, by Agent and Lenders in respect thereof (including the release of any such security); 
 (d) the insolvency of any Credit Party; or 
 (e) any other action or circumstances that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety or guarantor. 
 Each Borrower shall be regarded, and shall be in the same position, as principal debtor with respect to the Obligations guaranteed hereunder. 
 12.2. Waivers by Borrowers. Each Borrower expressly waives all rights it may have now or in the future under any statute, or at common law, or at
law or in equity, or otherwise, to compel Agent or Lenders to marshal assets or to proceed in respect of the Obligations guaranteed hereunder against any other Credit Party, any other party or against any security for the payment and performance of
the Obligations before proceeding against, or as a condition to proceeding against, such Borrower. It is agreed among each Borrower, Agent and Lenders that the 

  

 72 

 
foregoing waivers are of the essence of the transaction contemplated by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and that, but for the provisions of this
Section 12 and such waivers, Agent and Lenders would decline to enter into this Agreement. 
 12.3. Benefit of Guaranty.
Each Borrower agrees that the provisions of this Section 12 are for the benefit of Agent and Lenders and their respective successors, transferees, endorsees and assigns, and nothing herein contained shall impair, as between any other
Borrower and Agent or Lenders, the obligations of such other Borrower under the Loan Documents. 
 12.4. Waiver of Subrogation, Etc.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, and except as set forth in Section 12.7, each Borrower hereby expressly and irrevocably waives any and all rights at law or in equity to
subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution, indemnification or set off and any and all defenses available to a surety, guarantor or accommodation co-obligor. Each Borrower acknowledges and agrees that this waiver is intended to benefit
Agent and Lenders and shall not limit or otherwise affect such Borrower’s liability hereunder or the enforceability of this Section 12, and that Agent, Lenders and their respective successors and assigns are intended third party
beneficiaries of the waivers and agreements set forth in this Section 12.4. 
 12.5. Election of Remedies. If Agent or any
Lender may, under applicable law, proceed to realize its benefits under any of the Loan Documents giving Agent or such Lender a Lien upon any Collateral, whether owned by any Borrower or by any other Person, either by judicial foreclosure or by
non-judicial sale or enforcement, Agent or any Lender may, at its sole option, determine which of its remedies or rights it may pursue without affecting any of its rights and remedies under this Section 12. If, in the exercise of any of
its rights and remedies, Agent or any Lender shall forfeit any of its rights or remedies, including its right to enter a deficiency judgment against any Borrower or any other Person, whether because of any applicable laws pertaining to
“election of remedies” or the like, each Borrower hereby consents to such action by Agent or such Lender and waives any claim based upon such action, even if such action by Agent or such Lender shall result in a full or partial loss of any
rights of subrogation that each Borrower might otherwise have had but for such action by Agent or such Lender. Any election of remedies that results in the denial or impairment of the right of Agent or any Lender to seek a deficiency judgment
against any Borrower shall not impair any other Borrower’s obligation to pay the full amount of the Obligations. In the event Agent or any Lender shall bid at any foreclosure or trustee’s sale or at any private sale permitted by law or the
Loan Documents, Agent or such Lender may bid all or less than the amount of the Obligations and the amount of such bid need not be paid by Agent or such Lender but shall be credited against the Obligations. The amount of the successful bid at any
such sale, whether Agent, Lender or any other party is the successful bidder, shall be conclusively deemed to be the fair market value of the Collateral and the difference between such bid amount and the remaining balance of the Obligations shall be
conclusively deemed to be the amount of the Obligations guaranteed under this Section 12, notwithstanding that any present or future law or court decision or ruling may have the effect of reducing the amount of any deficiency claim to
which Agent or any Lender might otherwise be entitled but for such bidding at any such sale. 
 12.6. Limitation. Notwithstanding any
provision herein contained to the contrary, each Borrower’s liability under this Section 12 (which liability is in any event in addition to amounts 

  

 73 

 
for which such Borrower is primarily liable under Section 1) shall be limited to an amount not to exceed as of any date of determination the
greater of: 
 (a) the net amount of all Loans advanced to any other Borrower under this Agreement and then re-loaned or
otherwise transferred to, or for the benefit of, such Borrower, which are then outstanding; and 
 (b) the amount that could
be claimed by Agent and Lenders from such Borrower under this Section 12 without rendering such claim voidable or avoidable under Section 548 of Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code or under any applicable state Uniform Fraudulent
Transfer Act, Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act or similar statute or common law after taking into account, among other things, such Borrower’s right of contribution and indemnification from each other Borrower under Section 12.7.

 12.7. Contribution with Respect to Guaranty Obligations. 
 (a) To the extent that any Borrower shall make a payment under this Section 12 of all or any of the Obligations (other than
Loans made to that Borrower for which it is primarily liable) (a “Guarantor Payment”) that, taking into account all other Guarantor Payments then previously or concurrently made by any other Borrower, exceeds the amount that such
Borrower would otherwise have paid if each Borrower had paid the aggregate Obligations satisfied by such Guarantor Payment in the same proportion that such Borrower’s “Allocable Amount” (as defined below) (as determined immediately
prior to such Guarantor Payment) bore to the aggregate Allocable Amounts of each of the Borrowers as determined immediately prior to the making of such Guarantor Payment, then, following indefeasible payment in full in cash of the Obligations and
termination of the Commitments, such Borrower shall be entitled to receive contribution and indemnification payments from, and be reimbursed by, each other Borrower for the amount of such excess, pro rata based upon their respective Allocable
Amounts in effect immediately prior to such Guarantor Payment. 
 (b) As of any date of determination, the “Allocable
Amount” of any Borrower shall be equal to the maximum amount of the claim that could then be recovered from such Borrower under this Section 12 without rendering such claim voidable or avoidable under Section 548 of Chapter
11 of the Bankruptcy Code or under any applicable state Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act, Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act or similar statute or common law. 
 (c) This Section 12.7 is intended only to define the relative rights of Borrowers and nothing set forth in this
Section 12.7 is intended to or shall impair the obligations of Borrowers, jointly and severally, to pay any amounts as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, including
Section 12.1. Nothing contained in this Section 12.7 shall limit the liability of any Borrower to pay the Loans made directly or indirectly to that Borrower and accrued interest, Fees and expenses with respect thereto for
which such Borrower shall be primarily liable. 
  

 74 

 (d) The parties hereto acknowledge that the rights of contribution and indemnification
hereunder shall constitute assets of the Borrower to which such contribution and indemnification is owing. 
 (e) The rights
of the indemnifying Borrowers against other Credit Parties under this Section 12.7 shall be exercisable upon the full and indefeasible payment of the Obligations and the termination of the Commitments. 
 12.8. Liability Cumulative. The liability of Borrowers under this Section 12 is in addition to and shall be cumulative with all
liabilities of each Borrower to Agent and Lenders under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which such Borrower is a party or in respect of any Obligations or obligation of the other Borrower, without any limitation as to amount, unless
the instrument or agreement evidencing or creating such other liability specifically provides to the contrary. 
  

 75 

 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this Agreement has been duly executed as of the date first written above.

Borrower and for such Borrower’s account, Letter of Credit Obligations by causing Letters of Credit to be issued by GE Capital or a Subsidiary thereof or a bank or other legally authorized Person selected by or acceptable to Agent in its
sole discretion (each, an “L/C Issuer”) for such Borrower’s account and guaranteed by Agent; provided, that if the L/C Issuer is a Revolving Lender, then such Letters of Credit shall not be guaranteed by Agent but rather
each Revolving Lender shall, subject to the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, purchase (or be deemed to have purchased) risk participations in all such Letters of Credit issued with the written consent of Agent, as more fully described in
paragraph (b)(ii) below. The aggregate amount of all such Letter of Credit Obligations shall not at any time exceed the least of (i) Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000) (the “L/C Sublimit”) and (ii) the Maximum Amount less
the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the Revolving Credit Advances and the Swing Line Loan, and (iii) the Borrowing Base less the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the Revolving Credit Advances and the Swing Line Loan. No

neither Agent nor Revolving Lenders shall be under any obligation to incur Letter of Credit Obligations in respect of, or purchase risk participations in, any Letter of Credit having an expiry date that is later than the Commitment Termination Date.
All letters of credit issued under the Pre-Petition Loan Agreement shall be deemed to have been issued under this Agreement and shall for all purposes constitute “Letters of Credit” hereunder (provided that no additional issuance

Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and notwithstanding any Borrower’s failure to satisfy the conditions precedent set forth in Section 2, and each Revolving Lender shall be obligated to pay its Pro Rata Share thereof in
accordance with the Agreement. The failure of any Revolving Lender to make available to Agent for Agent’s own account its Pro Rata Share of any such Revolving Credit Advance or payment by Agent under or in respect of a Letter of Credit shall
not relieve any other Revolving Lender of its obligation hereunder to make available to Agent its Pro Rata Share thereof, but no Revolving Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Revolving Lender to make available such other
Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Share of any such payment. 

 (ii) If it shall be illegal or unlawful for any Borrower to incur Revolving Credit
Advances as contemplated by paragraph (b)(i) above or if it shall be illegal or unlawful for any Revolving Lender to be deemed to have assumed a ratable share of the reimbursement obligations owed to an L/C Issuer, or if the L/C Issuer is a
Revolving Lender, then (A) immediately and without further action whatsoever, each Revolving Lender shall be deemed to have irrevocably and unconditionally purchased from Agent (or such L/C Issuer, as the case may be) an undivided interest and
participation equal to such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Share (based on the Revolving Loan Commitments) of the Letter of Credit Obligations in respect of all Letters of Credit then outstanding and (B) thereafter, immediately upon issuance
of any Letter of Credit, each Revolving Lender shall be deemed to have irrevocably and unconditionally purchased from Agent (or such L/C Issuer, as the case may be) an undivided interest and participation in such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata
Share (based on the Revolving Loan Commitments) of the Letter of Credit Obligations with respect to such Letter of Credit on the date of such issuance. Each Revolving Lender shall fund its participation in all payments or disbursements made under
the Letters of Credit in the same manner as provided in the Agreement with respect to Revolving Credit Advances. 
 (c) Cash Collateral.

 (i) If Borrowers are required to provide cash collateral for any Letter of Credit Obligations pursuant to the Agreement,
including Section 8.2 of the Agreement, prior to the Commitment Termination Date, Borrowers will pay to Agent for the ratable benefit of itself and Revolving Lenders cash or cash equivalents acceptable to Agent (“Cash
Equivalents”) in an amount equal to 105% of the maximum amount then available to be drawn under each applicable Letter of Credit outstanding for the benefit of Borrowers. Such funds or Cash Equivalents shall be held by Agent in a cash
collateral account (the “Cash Collateral Account”) maintained at a bank or financial institution acceptable to Agent. The Cash Collateral Account shall be in the name of the Borrowers and shall be pledged to, and subject to the
