A.WHEREAS, DT is the only Lender under the Credit Agreement.

B.WHEREAS, the Borrower and DT have agreed, from (and including) the date hereof, to reduce the interest rate and unused commitment fee under the Credit Agreement and to make certain other amendments to the Credit Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements herein contained and other good and valuable consideration, the sufficiency and receipt of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

SECTION 1.  Definitions.  Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Agreement have the meanings assigned thereto in the Credit Agreement.  The provisions of Section 1.2 of the Credit Agreement are hereby incorporated by reference herein, mutatis mutandis.

SECTION 2.  Amendments to the Credit Agreement. The Credit Agreement is hereby amended by (i) deleting the bold, stricken text (indicated textually in the same manner as the following example: bold stricken text) and (ii) adding the bold, underlined text (indicated textually in the same manner as the following example: bold underlined text), in each case, as set forth below:

		
	a)
	With respect to the following definitions (and only the following definitions) in Section 1.1 (Defined Terms) of the Credit Agreement:

“Asset Acquisition” means (a) an investment by the Borrower (or any predecessor thereto) or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in any other Person pursuant to which such Person shall become a Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower or shall be merged into or consolidated with the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, but only if (i) such Person’s primary business constitutes a Permitted Business and (ii) the financial condition and results of operations of such Person are not already consolidated with those of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries immediately prior to such investment; or

(b) an acquisition by the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of the Property of any Person other than the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that constitute all or substantially all of a division, operating unit or line of business of such Person, but only (i) if the Property so acquired constitutes a Permitted Business and (ii) the financial condition and results of operations of such Person are not already consolidated with those of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries immediately prior to such acquisition.

“Capital Lease Obligations”, means, at the time any determination is to be made, the amount of the liability in respect of a capital lease that would at that time be required to be capitalized on a balance sheet prepared in accordance with GAAP, and the stated maturity thereof shall be the date of the last payment of rent or any other amount due under such lease prior to the first date upon which such lease may be prepaid by the lessee without payment of a penalty (provided that obligations either existing on April 28, 2013 or created thereafter that (a) initially were not included on the consolidated balance sheet of the Borrower as capital lease obligations and were subsequently recharacterized as capital lease obligations or (b) did not exist on April 28, 2013 and were required to be characterized as capital lease obligations but would not have been required to be treated as capital lease obligations on April 28, 2013 had they existed at that time, shall for all purposes not be treated as Capital Lease Obligations or Indebtedness).

 “GAAP” means generally accepted accounting principles as in effect as of May 1, 2013 on the date of any calculation or determination required under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time, (i) the Borrower may elect to apply IFRS accounting principles in lieu of GAAP and, upon any such election, references herein to GAAP or parts of the Accounting Standards Codification or “ASC” shall thereafter be construed to mean IFRS (except as otherwise provided in this Agreement) and (ii) the Borrower, on any date, may elect to establish that GAAP shall mean GAAP as in effect on such date; provided, that any such election, once made, shall be irrevocable; provided, further, that any calculation or determination in this Agreement that requires the application of GAAP for periods that include fiscal quarters ended prior to the Borrower’s election to apply IFRS shall remain as previously calculated or determined in accordance with GAAP. The Borrower shall give notice of any such election made in accordance with this definition to the Administrative Agent.

“Immaterial Subsidiary” means any Subsidiary of the Borrower that at any time has less than the greater of (x) $250.0 $100.0 million in Consolidated Total Assets or (y) Consolidated Total Assets accounting for 0.33% of the Borrower’s Consolidated Total Assets; provided that the aggregate Consolidated Total Assets of all Immaterial Subsidiaries shall not at any time exceed the greater of (x) $750.0 $300.0 million and (y) 1.00% of the Borrower’s Consolidated Total Assets.

“Termination Date” means the Business Day prior to the third fourth anniversary of the Closing Date (the “Initial Termination Date”); provided, that, such Initial the Termination Date may be automatically extended for additional increments of twelve (12) months at a time by the Borrower’s written notice (to be signed by a Financial Officer of the Borrower) of an extension request in the form of Exhibit J hereto (an “Extension Request”), specifying among other things the representations and the warranties to be confirmed as of the date thereof and as of the date the extension becomes effective, to be delivered by both fax and e-mail in 

2

accordance with Section 11.2 to the Administrative Agent no later than within a period of 45 to 30 calendar days prior to the date that is two years 90 calendar days prior to the Initial Termination Date (as then in effect) or expiry of any subsequent twelve-month increment, as applicable, unless, within 45 calendar days of the date of any such Extension Request, the Administrative Agent gives the Borrower written notice of its intent not to grant such extension; and upon any such extension (which shall be effective as of the 80th calendar day prior to the Initial Termination Date or most recently extended Termination Date), the term “Termination Date” shall mean the date on which the next such twelve-month increment expires.

If any financial statements referred to above are not delivered within the time periods specified in Section 7.1, then, until the date that is three Business Days after the date on which such financial statements are delivered, the highest margin set forth in each column of the Pricing Grid shall apply. On each Adjustment Date, the Applicable Margin for Loans and the Commitment Fee Rate shall be adjusted to be equal to the Applicable Margins and Commitment Fee Rate opposite the Pricing Level determined by the Borrower to exist on such Adjustment Date from the applicable financial statements relating to such Adjustment Date and the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent in writing of such determination on or prior to the applicable Adjustment Date.

As used herein, the following rules shall govern the determination of Pricing Levels on each Adjustment Date:

“Pricing Level I” shall exist on an Adjustment Date if the Debt to Cash Flow Ratio for the relevant period is less than or equal to 1.75 to 1.00 2.00 to 1.00.

“Pricing Level V” shall exist on an Adjustment Date if the Debt to Cash Flow Ratio for the relevant period is greater than 4.00 to 1.00.

SECTION 3.  Amendments to the Credit Agreement.  The Credit Agreement is hereby amended by adding a new Section 1.3 (LIBOR Replacement) to the end of Section 1 (Definitions) as follows:

(a) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the LIBOR rate for any requested Interest Period, or 

(b) the administrator of the LIBOR rate or a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Administrative Agent has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which the LIBOR rate shall no longer be made available, or used for determining the interest rate of loans, 

then, reasonably promptly after receipt by the Administrative Agent of such notice, the Borrower may request that the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) to an amendment to this Agreement to replace the LIBOR rate with an alternative benchmark rate (including any mathematical or other adjustments to the benchmark (if any) incorporated therein), giving due consideration to any 

5

evolving or then existing convention for similar U.S. dollar denominated credit facilities for such alternative benchmarks, together with any reasonably necessary conforming changes. 

SECTION 4.  Effect of this Agreement.  Except as expressly set forth herein, this Agreement shall not by implication or otherwise limit, impair, constitute a waiver of, or otherwise affect the rights and remedies of the Lenders or the Administrative Agent under the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document, and shall not alter, modify, amend or in any way affect any of the terms, conditions, obligations, covenants or agreements contained in the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document, all of which are ratified and affirmed in all respects and shall continue in full force and effect.  Nothing herein shall be deemed to entitle any Loan Party to a consent to, or a waiver, amendment, modification or other change of, any of the terms, conditions, obligations, covenants or agreements contained in the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document in similar or different circumstances.  This Agreement shall apply and be effective only with respect to the provisions of the Credit Agreement specifically referred to herein.  After the effective date of this Agreement, any reference to the Credit Agreement shall mean the Credit Agreement as modified hereby.

SECTION 5.  Reaffirmation. Each of the Borrower and each Guarantor identified on the signature pages hereto (collectively, the “Reaffirming Loan Parties”) hereby acknowledges that it expects to receive substantial direct and indirect benefits as a result of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby.  Each Reaffirming Loan Party hereby consents to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, and hereby confirms its respective guarantees under each of the Loan Documents to which it is party, and agrees that, notwithstanding the effectiveness of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, such guarantees shall continue to be in full force and effect and shall accrue to the benefit of the Lenders and Administrative Agent.  Each of the Reaffirming Loan Parties further agrees to take any action that may be required or that is reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent to effect the purposes of this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or the Loan Documents and hereby reaffirms its obligations under each provision of each Loan Document to which it is party.

SECTION 6.  Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.  Delivery by telecopier or other electronic transmission (e.g., “PDF” or “TIFF”) of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement shall be effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart of this Agreement.

SECTION 7.  Headings.  Section headings used herein are for convenience of reference only, are not part of this Agreement and are not to affect the construction of, or to be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement.

SECTION 8.  Governing Law; Jurisdiction, etc.  This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of New York. The provisions of Sections 11.11, 11.12 and 11.17 of the Credit Agreement shall apply to this Agreement, mutatis mutandis.

 SETTLEMENT AND MUTUAL RELEASE AGREEMENT
 

 This Settlement and Mutual Release Agreement (the “Agreement”) is made effective as of March 21, 2018, by and between Pioneer Group, LLC (“Pioneer”), Black Car, Inc. (“Black Car,” and with Pioneer, “Plaintiffs”) on the one hand, and Holly Brothers Pictures, Inc. (“Holly”) on the other hand.
 

 WHEREAS, Holly is indebted to Plaintiffs under certain promissory notes (the “Notes”), copies of which are attached as Exhibit C to the complaint filed in the Lawsuit (as defined below);
 

 WHEREAS, the Notes have matured, but they remain unpaid, due and owing to Plaintiffs;
 WHEREAS, pursuant to the Notes, Holly is indebted to Pioneer in the amount of $369,459.64 (the “Pioneer Debt”) and to Black Car in the amount of $373,710.32 (the “Black Car Debt”).
 

 WHEREAS, on March 2, 2018, Plaintiffs filed suit (the “Lawsuit”) against Holly in the Superior Court for the State of California County, San Diego Central Division, to collect on the Notes, which case was docketed as case number 37-2017-00010522-CU-BC-CTL; and
 

 WHEREAS, the Pioneer, Black Car, and Holly (collectively the “Parties”) wish to settle and resolve all claims relating to the Notes, to wit; the Pioneer Debt, the Black Car Debt, and the Lawsuit on the terms and conditions set forth herein.
 

 WHEREAS, Pursuant to the Stipulation for Settlement and Order Thereon (the “Stipulation”) included herewith at Exhibit A hereto, the Parties shall apply for an Order of the Court to be issued upon a noticed settlement hearing.
 

 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the promises, mutual agreements, covenants and provisions contained in this Agreement, the receipt, sufficiency, and adequacy of which are expressly acknowledged, the Parties agree as follows:
 

 1.
 Payment to Plaintiffs:  In settlement of the indebtedness represented by the Notes, Holly shall, from time to time and subject to the ownership and temporal limitations set forth below, issue and deliver an aggregate of 3,078,000 shares of Holly common stock to Pioneer and 3,157,000 shares of Holly common stock to Black Car (the “Settlement Shares”) pursuant to Section 3(a)(10) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, Corporations Code Section 25017(f)(3) and the regulations promulgated thereunder.
 

 The issuance of the Settlement Shares shall occur in respective tranches such that the Settlement Shares beneficially owned by each Plaintiff (or deemed to be beneficially owned by each Plaintiff) shall not exceed 4.99% of the Holly common stock outstanding on an issuance date, as determined in accordance with Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the regulations promulgated thereunder.
 

 Settlement and Mutual Release Agreement - Page 1
 

 
 

 For clarity, Holly shall have no obligation to issue, and shall not issue, Settlement Shares in an amount that would result in either Plaintiff owning more than 4.99% of Holly’s then-outstanding common stock.  Holly shall provide thirty days’ notice of any cancellation of shares not owned by Plaintiffs if such cancellation would result in either Plaintiff owning more than 4.99% of Holly common stock outstanding immediately following such cancellation.
 

 Either Plaintiff may make requests for periodic tranch issuances.  Plaintiffs shall have no right to request, and shall not request, a tranch issuance that would result in either of them owning more than 4.99% of Holly’s then-outstanding common stock.  Such requests shall be in writing and shall be accompanied by a representation from the requesting Plaintiff stating the exact number of shares then owned by the requesting Plaintiff.  The Requesting Plaintiff shall provide any additional information reasonably requested by Holly to enable Holly to verify that the requested issuance will not result in a beneficial ownership of more than 4.99% of Holly’s then-outstanding common stock.
 

 Plaintiffs’ right to make requests for periodic tranch issuances shall expire on September 17, 2019.  Thereafter, Holly shall have no obligation to issue shares to either Plaintiff pursuant to this Agreement.  Plaintiffs acknowledge that they may be unable to sell, prior to the expiration of their right to make requests for periodic tranch issuances, a sufficient number of shares to recoup the Pioneer Debt and the Black Car Debt.  They expressly assume that risk.
 

 2.
 Resolution of the Lawsuit:  Upon full execution of this Agreement, Plaintiffs shall file a Request for Dismissal with Prejudice of the Lawsuit, or request the Court take such action sua sponte.
 

 3.
 Mutual Releases:
 

 a.
 Plaintiffs release, acquit, and discharge Holly and its related entities, subsidiaries, parents, affiliates, successors, predecessors, officers, shareholders, directors, members, managers, owners, agents, servants, representatives, attorneys, and insurers of and from any fee, debt, obligation, claim, action, demand and/or cause of action, including any claim for attorneys’ fees, interest, or costs of litigation, whether asserted or unasserted, whether equitable or at law, whether arising under or pursuant to common or statutory laws, state and/or federal law, rules or regulations, that arises out of the Notes, the Pioneer Debt, the Black Car Debt, or the Lawsuit.
 

 b.
 Holly releases, acquits, and discharges Plaintiffs and their respective  related entities, subsidiaries, parents, affiliates, successors, predecessors, officers, shareholders, directors, members, managers, owners, agents, servants, representatives, attorneys, and insurers of and from any fee, debt, obligation, claim, action, demand and/or cause of action, including any claim for attorneys’ fees, interest, or costs of litigation, whether asserted or unasserted, whether equitable or at law, whether arising under or pursuant to common or statutory laws, state and/or federal law, rules or regulations, that arises out of the Notes, the Pioneer Debt, the Black Car Debt, or the Lawsuit.
 

 Settlement and Release Agreement - Page 2
 

 
 

 c.
 The foregoing releases extend to all claims whether or not suspected and constitute a waiver of each and all of the provisions of California Civil Code, Section 1542 which reads as follows:
 

 A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH IF KNOWN BY HIM OR HER MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR. 
 

 d.
 The Parties acknowledge that they are parties to an exchange agreement dated February 1, 2018 and certain convertible notes executed contemporaneously with the exchange agreement, as described more fully in a Form 8-K Holly filed with the SEC on February 2, 2018. The releases provided for in this Agreement do not extend to the exchange agreement or the convertible notes executed contemporaneously with it, all of which remain in full force and effect.
 

 4.
 Miscellaneous:
 

 a.
 This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties, their successors, and assigns.
 

 b.
 The Parties acknowledge that the terms and covenants contained in this Agreement provide good and sufficient consideration for every promise, duty, release, obligation, and right contained in this Agreement.
 

 c. 
 By execution hereof, the Parties each represent, covenant, and warrant that each is authorized to release the claims released in this Agreement, and that no claim released herein has previously been conveyed, assigned, or in any manner transferred, in whole or in part, to any third party.
 

 d.
 It is understood and agreed that no party to this Agreement admits any liability to any other party, but to the contrary, expressly denies the same.  This Agreement is entered to resolve, settle, and compromise the matters in dispute between the Parties and avoid the cost, expense, and effort of protracted and disputed litigation.
 

 e. 
 The Parties fully understand that if any fact concerning the claims giving rise to this Agreement should be found other than or different from the facts now believed to be true, the Parties expressly accept and assume the risk of such possible difference in facts and agree that this agreement shall be and will remain in effect notwithstanding any such difference in facts.
 

 f. 
 Each party warrants and represents to the other that no promise, representation, conduct, or consideration by any other party or its owners, agents, servants, employees, attorneys, or persons in privity with them has induced the execution of this Agreement except for those representations and agreements specifically set forth herein.

 g. 
 This Agreement was drafted jointly by all Parties in consultation with their attorneys.  Accordingly, no rule of construction based upon one party or the other drafting this Agreement shall apply.

 i.
 This Agreement shall be governed by, construed, interpreted, applied, and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of California, County of San Diego.

 j.
 The Parties stipulate the Superior Court for State of California, County of San Diego, and the Hon. Gregory W. Pollack shall retain limited jurisdiction over the interpretation of the terms of this Agreement pursuant to Section 664.6 of the Code of Civil Procedure.
