 -10- 

 
clause refer to such Section, subsection or clause as contained in this Agreement. The words “herein,” “hereof” and “hereunder”
and other words of similar import refer to this Agreement as a whole, including all Annexes, Exhibits and Schedules, as the same may from time to time be amended, restated, modified or supplemented, and not to any particular section, subsection or

regulations. Whenever any provision in any Loan Document refers to the knowledge (or an analogous phrase) of Borrower, such words are intended to signify that Borrower has actual knowledge or awareness of a particular fact or circumstance or that
Borrower, if it had exercised reasonable diligence, would have known or been aware of such fact or circumstance. 
  

	2.	AMOUNT AND TERMS OF CREDIT 

 2.1 Advances and
Letters of Credit. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, Lender agrees to, from time to time until the Commitment Termination Date, (i) make available advances (each, a “Revolving Credit Advance”) to or for the
benefit of Borrower as provided for in this Section 2.1, and (ii) incur Letter of Credit Obligations in respect of Borrower as provided for in Annex 13 and this Section 2.1 The aggregate amount of Revolving Credit
Advances and Letter of Credit Obligations outstanding shall not exceed at any time the Revolving Loan Commitment. Until the Commitment Termination Date, Borrower may from time to time borrow, repay and reborrow under this Section 2.1.

 Each Revolving Credit Advance or Letter of Credit Obligation shall be made or incurred on notice by Borrower to the representative of
Lender identified on Schedule 2.1 at the address specified thereon. Those notices must be actually received by Lender no later than (1) 10:00 a.m. (California time) on the Business Day of the proposed Revolving Credit Advance in the
case of all Revolving Credit Advances, or (2) with respect to Letter of Credit Obligations, 10:00 a.m. (California time) on the date which is at least two (2) Business Days prior to the requested incurrence of such Letter of Credit
Obligations. Each such notice (a “Notice of Revolving Credit Advance” or “Notice of Letter of Credit Request,” as the case may be) must be given in writing (by telecopy or overnight courier) substantially in the
form of Exhibit 2.1-1 or Exhibit 2.1-2, as the case may be, and shall include the information required in such Exhibit and such other information as may be required by Lender. In addition, a Notice of Letter of Credit Request
shall be accompanied by the form of the Letter of Credit (which shall be acceptable to the L/C Issuer) to be guaranteed. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Letter of Credit applications by Borrower and approvals by Lender may
be made and transmitted pursuant to electronic codes and security measures mutually agreed upon and established by and among Borrower, Lender and the L/C Issuer. 
  

 -11- 

 (a) Inventory Advances and Letters of Credit. (i) If Borrower proposes to enter into
Liquidation Sales Agreements with respect to any proposed Liquidation Sale, Borrower may propose that Lender agree to make a Revolving Credit Advance or incur Letter of Credit Obligations with respect to the Retail Inventory that is proposed to be
sold through such Liquidation Sale (such Revolving Credit Advance is referred to as an “Inventory Advance”). Each such proposal (a “Liquidation Loan Proposal”) shall (A) be substantially in the form of
Exhibit 2.1(a)(i) attached hereto and accompanied by all of the documents and information described on Schedule 2.1(a)(i), (B) involve a proposed Inventory Advance or Letter of Credit in an amount that Borrower
reasonably expects to be not less than Fifteen Million Dollars ($15,000,000), and (C) be sent so that it is actually received by Lender no later than 10:00 a.m. (California time) on the fifth (5th) Business Day prior to the date of the
proposed Inventory Advance or incurrence of the Letter of Credit Obligations. 
 (ii) Within three (3) Business Days after
Lender’s receipt of a Liquidation Loan Proposal, Lender will notify Borrower in writing whether Lender (A) would be willing to make an Inventory Advance or incur Letter of Credit Obligations on the terms proposed by Borrower, (B) is
not willing to make any Inventory Advance or incur any Letter of Credit Obligations with respect to such Liquidation Sale, or (C) would be willing to make an Inventory Advance or incur Letter of Credit Obligations with respect to the proposed
Liquidation Sale, but only at a specified Inventory Advance Rate that is different from that proposed by Borrower and/or with such other modifications specified in such notice. Lender shall have sole discretion to decide whether or not to agree to
any Liquidation Loan Proposal or to propose an alternative Inventory Advance Rate for the proposed Liquidation Sale. Lender shall not have any obligation to make an Inventory Advance or incur Letter of Credit Obligations unless Lender actually
receives, within two (2) Business Days after Borrower’s receipt of a notice from Lender described in clauses (A) or (C) of the immediately preceding sentence, written notice from Borrower of Borrower’s intention to
request disbursement of such Inventory Advance or incurrence of such Letter of Credit Obligations on the terms set forth in such notice from Lender. 
 (iii) The amount of the Inventory Advance or the Letter of Credit Obligations with respect to each Liquidation Sale shall be calculated based upon the applicable Inventory Advance Rate and the actual Guaranteed Amount
or Purchase Price as determined pursuant to the applicable Agency Agreement or Purchase Agreement (or, if the actual amount required to be delivered to the Merchant by Borrower with respect to the Guaranteed Amount or Purchase Price is less than
such Guaranteed Amount or Purchase Price, such lesser amount). The Inventory Advance shall be disbursed as a single advance; provided, that in the event the Liquidation Sales Agreements require an initial payment by Borrower to the Merchant
before the completion of a final inventory count, the Inventory Advance may be disbursed in two separate advances with the first portion of the Inventory Advance being calculated based upon the applicable Inventory Advance Rate and the amount of
such required initial payment and the second portion, if any, of the Inventory Advance being determined and made based on the actual Guaranteed Amount or Purchase Price as determined by the final inventory count. 
  

 -12- 

 (b) Sales Tax Advances. To the extent that Lender has received Collections with respect to a
Liquidation Sale, which Collections include Sales Tax Receipts, Lender shall make Revolving Credit Advances equal to the amount of such Saks Tax Receipts, as and when Borrower is required to pay such amounts to the applicable Merchant or taxing
authority, to enable Borrower to forward such amounts to such Merchant or taxing authority in accordance with the terms of the applicable Agency Agreement or Purchase Agreement. Borrower’s Notice of Revolving Credit Advance shall include
documentation satisfactory to Lender evidencing the amount of such Sales Tax Receipts. 
 (c) Expense Advances. With respect to each
Liquidation Sale, Lender shall make Revolving Credit Advances to enable Borrower to pay Expenses to the Merchant or any third party entitled to receive such payment in accordance with the terms of the applicable Agency Agreement or Purchase
Agreement, as and when Borrower is required to pay such amounts. With respect to each Liquidation Sale, Lender shall make such Revolving Credit Advances in an aggregate amount not to exceed the lesser of (i) the actual Expenses of such
Liquidation Sale, and (ii) an amount equal to one hundred and three percent (103%) of the amount for aggregate Expenses shown on the Budget for such Liquidation Sale (the “Total Expense Advance”); provided, that the
Total Expense Advance may exceed one hundred and three percent (103%) of the amount for aggregate Expenses shown on the Budget for such Liquidation Sale to the extent that Borrower either provides Lender with evidence reasonably satisfactory to
Lender that such excess was not caused by a deviation from the plan for such Liquidation Sale as set forth in the documents and information furnished to Lender with the Liquidation Loan Proposal for such Liquidation Sale, or to the extent that such
excess is caused by a deviation for which Lender has given its prior written consent. Borrower’s Notice of Revolving Credit Advance shall include documentation satisfactory to Lender evidencing the amount of Expenses. If specified in the
Liquidation Loan Proposal for such Liquidation Sale, Lender will incur Letter of Credit Obligations with respect to a portion of the anticipated Expenses of such Liquidation Sale; provided, that in such case Lender will not be obligated to
make Revolving Credit Advances with respect to Expenses of such Liquidation Sale unless Lender is satisfied that the aggregate amount of such Revolving Credit Advances and the amount of such Letter of Credit Obligations that Lender reasonably
anticipates may ultimately be drawn upon does not exceed the Total Expense Advance. 
 (d) [INTENTIONALLY OMITTED] 
 (e) Notes. For each Inventory Advance made or Letter of Credit Obligation incurred by Lender, Borrower shall execute and deliver to Lender a note
in the principal amount of such Inventory Advance or Letter of Credit Obligation, substantially in the form of Exhibit 2.1(e) (collectively, the “Notes”). Each Note shall represent the obligation of Borrower to pay the
amount of the applicable Inventory Advance or Letter of Credit Obligation, as well as all other Revolving Credit Advances with respect to the same Liquidation Loan, together with interest thereon as prescribed in Section 2.4.
Notwithstanding any provision of any of the Notes, the entire unpaid balance of the Revolving Loan and all of the Notes, and all other non-contingent Obligations, shall be immediately due and payable in full in immediately available funds on the
Commitment Termination Date. 
  

 -13- 

 (f) Reliance on Notices. Lender shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall be fully protected in
relying upon, any Notice of Revolving Credit Advance, Notice of Letter of Credit Request, Liquidation Loan Proposal or similar notice believed by Lender to be signed by any of the authorized representatives of Borrower listed on Schedule
2.1(f) or any other individual designated in writing by such authorized representatives to act on behalf of Borrower. Lender may assume that each Person executing and delivering such a notice was duly authorized, unless the responsible
individual acting thereon for Lender has actual knowledge to the contrary. 
 2.2 Use of Proceeds. Borrower shall use the proceeds of
each Liquidation Loan solely for the purpose of making payments with respect to the Guaranteed Amount or Purchase Price, Sales Tax Receipts, Expenses, or the Recovery Amount, if any, with respect to the associated Liquidation Sale, as and when
Borrower is required to pay such amounts in accordance with the terms of the applicable Agency Agreement or Purchase Agreement. 
 2.3
Maturity of Liquidation Loans. Each Liquidation Loan shall be due and payable in full, as the case may be for such Liquidation Loan, (i) 180 days after the date of the Inventory Advance with respect to such Liquidation Loan, or
(ii) on the date of expiration of the Letter of Credit with respect to such Liquidation Loan. 
 2.4 Interest. 
 (a) With respect to each Liquidation Loan, Borrower shall pay interest to Lender on the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all Revolving Credit
Advances thereunder at a per annum rate equal to the sum of (i) the CP Rate for the date on which the Inventory Advance thereunder was made, plus (ii) three and one-quarter percent (3.25%). Interest shall be payable in arrears on
the first Business Day of each month and at the maturity of such Liquidation Loan. 
 (b) If any payment on any Liquidation 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 and, with respect to payments of principal, interest thereon shall be payable at the then applicable rate during such
extension. 
 (c) All computations of interest shall be made by Lender on the basis of a three hundred and sixty (360) day year, in each
case for the actual number of days occurring in the period for which such interest is payable. Each determination by Lender of an interest rate hereunder shall be conclusive, absent manifest error. 
 (d) So long as any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and at the election of Lender after written notice from Lender to Borrower,
the interest rates and the Letter of Credit Fees applicable to each of the Liquidation Loans shall be increased by two percent (2%) per annum above the rates of interest or the Letter of Credit Fees otherwise applicable hereunder
(“Default Rate”), and all outstanding Obligations shall bear interest at the Default Rate applicable to such Obligations; provided that, if the Event of Default is a payment default, an Event of Default with respect to
Section 4.20, 6.10 or 7.2 of the Credit Agreement, an Event of Default with respect to the occurrence of an event that has a Material Adverse Effect, in any case, solely with respect to any particular Liquidation
Loan, or any other Event of Default 

  

 -14- 

 
solely with respect to a particular Liquidation Loan (other than an Event of Default that is the result of any fraud, acts in bad faith or intentional breach
by Borrower), Lender may increase the rate of interest and the Letter of Credit Fee to the Default Rate only with respect to such Liquidation Loan. 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) Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary set forth in this Section 2.4, 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, that if at any time thereafter the rate of interest payable hereunder
is less than the Maximum Lawful Rate, Borrower shall continue to pay interest hereunder at the Maximum Lawful Rate until such time as the total interest received by Lender is equal to the total interest which 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. Thereafter, interest hereunder shall be paid at the rate(s) of interest and in
the manner provided in Sections 2.4(a) through (d) above, unless and until the rate of interest again exceeds the Maximum Lawful Rate, and at that time this paragraph shall again apply. In no event shall the total interest received
by Lender pursuant to the terms hereof exceed the amount which Lender could lawfully have received had the interest due hereunder been calculated for the full term hereof at the Maximum Lawful Rate. If the Maximum Lawful Rate is calculated pursuant
to this paragraph, such interest shall be calculated at a daily rate equal to the Maximum Lawful Rate divided by the number of days in the year in which such calculation is made. if, notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 2.4(e),
a court of competent jurisdiction shall finally determine that Lender has received interest hereunder in excess of the Maximum Lawful Rate, Lender shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, promptly apply such excess in the order specified in
Section 2.8 and thereafter shall refund any excess to Borrower or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise order. 
 2.5 Fees. As additional compensation for Lender’s Revolving Loan Commitment, Borrower agrees to pay to Lender the following Fees: 
 (a) On the date on which any Inventory Advance is made or any Letter of Credit Obligation is incurred by Lender, Borrower shall pay to Lender a fee (the “Liquidation Loan Fee”) equal to one-tenth of
one percent (0.10%) of the amount of such Inventory Advance or Letter of Credit Obligation; provided, that once Borrower has paid Liquidation Loan Fees in the aggregate amount of $250,000, no further Liquidation Loan Fees shall be payable in
connection with any other Inventory Advances or Letter of Credit Obligations under this Agreement. Any Liquidation Loan Fee payable with respect to any Inventory Advance or Letter of Credit Obligation shall be paid by Lender’s deducting the
amount of such Liquidation Loan Fee from the funding amount of such Inventory Advance or by Borrower’s payment of the amount of such fee at the time such Letter of Credit Obligations are incurred. 
 (b) Upon completion of the Final Accounting with respect to any Liquidation Sale, Borrower shall pay to Lender the Success Fee, if any, with respect to
such Liquidation Sale. 

  

 -15- 

 
To the extent that Lender has received and is still holding payments with respect to such Liquidation Sale after all other Obligations with respect to such
Liquidation Sale have been paid in full, Lender may apply the amount of payments against any Success Fee with respect to such Liquidation Sale. 
 2.6 Cash Management Systems. 
 (a) For each Liquidation Sale, prior to Lender’s making the Inventory Advance or
incurring the Letter of Credit Obligations with respect to such Liquidation Sale, Borrower shall establish a blocked account in Borrower’s name (the “Blocked Account”) at a bank acceptable to Lender, for the deposit of all
Collections and other amounts that Borrower is entitled to receive and use with respect to such Liquidation Sale, and Borrower shall deposit or cause to be deposited to the Blocked Account such amounts at least two times per week, or more frequently
as Borrower may determine is appropriate. 
 (b) Prior to Lender’s making the Inventory Advance or incurring the Letter of Credit
Obligations with respect to each Liquidation Sale, the bank at which the Blocked Account for such Liquidation Sale has been established shall have entered into a tri-party blocked account agreement with Lender and Borrower, in form and substance
acceptable to Lender, which shall immediately become operative at the bank at which the Blocked Account is maintained. Such blocked account agreement shall provide, among other things, that such bank executing such agreement has no rights of setoff
or recoupment or any other claim against such Blocked Account, other than for payment of its service fees and other charges directly related to the administration of such account, and the bank at which the Blocked Account is located agrees to
forward immediately all amounts in the Blocked Account to the Collection Account and to commence the process of daily sweeps from the Blocked Account into the Collection Account. 
 (c) For each Liquidation Sale, Borrower shall establish, in its name, a separate account (each a “Disbursement Account”) at a bank
acceptable to Lender into which Lender shall deposit proceeds of the Revolving Credit Advances with respect to such Liquidation Sale, except for those proceeds as to which Lender and Borrower have agreed upon an alternative method of funding, for
use by Borrower solely in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.2. 
 (d) The Blocked Account and the Disbursement Account
for each Liquidation Sale shall be cash collateral accounts, with all cash, checks and other similar items of payment in such accounts securing payment of the Liquidation Loan and all other Obligations with respect to such Liquidation Sale, and in
which Borrower shall have granted a Lien to Lender pursuant to the Collateral Documents. Unless Lender otherwise agrees, Borrower shall maintain the Blocked Account and the Disbursement Account with respect to each Liquidation Sale so long as there
is any reasonable expectation that any additional Collections will be received or Revolving Credit Advances made with respect to such Liquidation Sale. 
 2.7 Receipt of Payments. Borrower 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, all payments shall be deemed received on the day of receipt of immediately available funds therefor in the Collection Account prior to 2:00 p.m. (New York time). Payments received after
2:00 p.m. (New York 

  

 -16- 

 
time) on any Business Day shall be deemed to have been received on the following Business Day. Although, as a result of the collection of payments in the
Collection Account, a credit balance may exist in favor of Borrower, under no circumstance shall such credit balance accrue interest in favor of Borrower. 
 2.8 Application and Allocation of Payments. 
 (a) Prior to the date on which the Final Accounting for
any Liquidation Sale is approved by Lender, any and all payments at any time or times received from or on behalf of Borrower with respect to such Liquidation Sale shall be applied, subject to the Final Accounting, in the following order:
(i) principal payments with respect to Revolving Credit Advances made with respect to Expenses of the applicable Liquidation Sale; (ii) then due and payable payments of interest with respect to the applicable Liquidation Loan;
(iii) then due and payable Letter of Credit Fees with respect to the applicable Liquidation Loan; (iv) then due and payable Obligations with respect to the applicable Liquidation Loan, other than interest, Letter of Credit Fees, and
principal payments; (v) principal payments on the applicable Liquidation Loan, other than with respect to Expenses; (vi) to provide cash collateral for Letter of Credit Obligations in the manner described in Annex B until all
of such Letter of Credit Obligations with respect to the applicable Liquidation Sale have been fully cash collateralized; (vii) to fund a reserve for Expenses that have not been paid with respect to the applicable Liquidation Sale, to the
extent such Expenses have not been otherwise reserved for under a Letter of Credit; (viii) to fund a reserve for the Recovery Amount with respect to the applicable Liquidation Sale; (ix) to Expenses paid by Borrower with respect to the
applicable Liquidation Sale that were not funded with Revolving Credit Advances; (x) to deposits to the Disbursement Account, for the benefit of Borrower, for payment of up to the Borrower Equity Amount; and (xi) ninety percent of the
remaining amount, if any, to preliminary payments based on the Net Profit Margin with respect to the applicable Liquidation Sale, pro rata based upon the Success Fee percentage for such Liquidation Sale to Lender for the Success Fee and to deposits
to the Disbursement Account for the benefit of Borrower; and (xii) to be held by Lender pending completion of the Final Accounting. Upon the Final Accounting, any remaining amounts received by Lender with respect to such Liquidation Sale after
application in accordance with the order set forth above, shall be applied in the following order: (I) to payment of the Success Fee, if any, with respect to such Liquidation Sale; and then (II) to deposits to the Disbursement Account,
for the benefit of Borrower. 
 (b) If upon the Final Accounting it is determined that any payments previously applied in accordance with
Section 2.8(a) need to be adjusted to reflect the actual amounts of all of the items set forth in Section 2.8(a), and that the amount received by either party is greater than the amount than such party is ultimately
determined to be entitled to receive, then such party shall pay the amount of such excess to the other party. 
 (c) Lender is authorized to,
and at its sole election may, charge to the applicable Liquidation Loan balance on behalf of Borrower and cause to be paid all Fees, interest and other amounts owing by Borrower under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents with respect to
such Liquidation Loan, if and to the extent Borrower fails to promptly pay any such amounts as and when due, even if such charges would cause the Revolving Loan to exceed the Revolving Credit Commitment. At Lender’s option and to the extent
permitted by law, any charges so made shall constitute part of the Revolving Loan hereunder. 
  

 -17- 

 (d) To the extent that Lender applies any cash payment to a reserve or cash collateral account maintained
by Lender pursuant to Section 2.8(a), Lender shall credit interest to any such account in an amount equal to the actual interest that Lender earns on overnight deposits. 
 2.9 Loan Account and Accounting. Lender shall maintain a loan account (the “Loan Account”) on its books to record with respect to
the Revolving Loan and each Liquidation Loan: (i) all Revolving Credit Advances, (ii) all payments made by Borrower or otherwise received by Lender, and (iii) all other debits and credits as provided in this Agreement with respect to
the Revolving Loan, each Liquidation Loan or any other Obligations. All entries in the Loan Account shall be made in accordance with Lender’s customary accounting practices as in effect from time to time. The balances in the Loan Account, as
recorded on Lender’s most recent printout or other written statement, shall be presumptive evidence of the amounts due and owing to Lender by Borrower; provided that any failure to so record or any error in so recording shall not limit
or otherwise affect Borrower’s duty to pay the Obligations. Lender shall render to Borrower a weekly accounting of transactions with respect to the Revolving Loan and each Liquidation Loan setting forth their respective balances. Unless
Borrower notifies Lender in writing of any objection to any such accounting (specifically describing the basis for such objection), within thirty (30) days after the Final Accounting, each and every such accounting shall (absent manifest error)
be deemed final, binding and conclusive upon Borrower in all respects as to all matters reflected therein. Only those items expressly objected to in such notice shall be deemed to be disputed by Borrower. 
 2.10 Indemnity. 
 (a) Borrower shall
indemnify and hold harmless each of Lender and its 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 attorneys’ fees and disbursements and other costs of investigation or defense, including those incurred upon any appeal) which 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”). 
 (b)
Great American shall indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnified Person from and against any and all suits, actions, proceedings, claims, damages, losses, liabilities and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and disbursements and other costs of
investigation or defense, including those incurred upon any appeal) which may be instituted or asserted against or incurred by any such Indemnified Person as a result of the engagement of Great American or any of its employees in, or any of such
Person’s causing Borrower to engage in, any fraud, acts in bad faith or intentional breach of the terms of this Agreement or the Liquidation Sales Agreement in connection with any Liquidation Sale. 
  

 -18- 

 (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither Borrower nor Great American shall be liable for any

Credit Obligations with respect to any Liquidation Sale until the following conditions with respect to such Liquidation Sale and the Liquidation Loan with respect thereto have been satisfied or provided for in a manner satisfactory to Lender, in

 -23- 

 
which will have been duly obtained, made or complied with prior to the Closing Date. Each Loan Document constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of
Borrower enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally or by equitable principles
relating to its enforceability. 
 4.4 Material Adverse Effect. No event has occurred, which alone or together with other events,
could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 4.5 Agreements Entered Into by Borrower. (a) Borrower has not

 4.9 Government Regulation.
Borrower is not 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 as amended. Borrower is not subject to regulation under the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935, the Federal Power Act, or any other federal or state statute that restricts or limits its ability to incur indebtedness or to perform its
obligations hereunder. The making of the Revolving Loan by Lender to Borrower, the incurrence of the Letter of Credit Obligations on behalf of Borrower, the application of the proceeds thereof and repayment thereof and the consummation of the
Liquidation Sales will not violate any provision of any such statute or any rule, regulation or order issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission. 
 4.10 Margin Regulations. Borrower is not engaged, nor will it engage, principally or as one of its important activities, in the business of extending credit for the purpose of 

  

 -24- 

 
“purchasing” or “carrying” any “margin security” 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”). Borrower owns no Margin Stock, and none of the proceeds of the Liquidation 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 which was originally incurred to purchase or carry any Margin Stock or for any other
purpose which might cause any of the Liquidation Loans or other extensions of credit under this Agreement to be considered a “purpose credit” within the meaning of Regulation T, U or X of the Federal Reserve Board. Borrower will not take
or permit to be taken any action which might cause any Loan Document to violate any regulation of the Federal Reserve Board. 
 4.11
Taxes. All tax returns, reports and statements, including information returns, required by any Governmental Authority to be filed by Borrower have been filed with the appropriate Governmental Authority and all Charges have been paid prior to

 4.12 ERISA. Borrower has no employee benefit plans as defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA. None of Borrower or any ERISA Affiliate has taken, or
failed to take, any action that has subjected or would subject Borrower to any liability with respect to any employee benefit plan. 
 4.13
No Litigation. No action, claim, lawsuit, demand, investigation or proceeding is now pending or, to the knowledge of Borrower, threatened against Borrower, before any Governmental Authority or before any arbitrator or panel of arbitrators
(collectively, “Litigation”) that challenges Borrower’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. There is no Litigation pending or, to the knowledge of Borrower, threatened that seeks damages or injunctive relief or alleges criminal misconduct of Borrower. 
 4.14 Brokers. No broker or finder acting on behalf of Borrower brought about the obtaining, making or closing of the Revolving Loan, and Borrower
has no obligation to any Person in respect of any finder’s or brokerage fees in connection therewith. 
 4.15 Full Disclosure. No
information contained in this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents, any financial statement, or any other reports from time to time delivered hereunder or any written statement furnished by or on behalf of Borrower to Lender pursuant to the
terms of this Agreement contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits 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.

  

 -25- 

 4.16 Environmental Matters. 
 (a) (i) Borrower is not involved in operations nor does it know of any facts, circumstances or conditions, including any Releases of Hazardous

(iii) Borrower has provided to Lender copies of all existing environmental reports, reviews and audits and all written information, if any, pertaining to actual or potential Environmental Liabilities. 
 (b) Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that Lender (i) is not now, and has not ever been, in control of any of Borrower’s affairs, and

extended on the Closing Date or such other date as Revolving Credit Advances or Letter of Credit Obligations requested hereunder are made or extended, (b) the disbursement of the proceeds of such Revolving Credit Advances pursuant to the
instructions of Borrower, (c) any Liquidation Sale and (d) the payment and accrual of all transaction costs in connection with the foregoing, Borrower is Solvent. 
 4.20 Liquidation Sales Agreements. Borrower has delivered to Lender complete and correct copies of all existing Liquidation Sales Agreements
(including all schedules, exhibits, amendments, supplements, modifications, assignments and all other documents delivered pursuant thereto or in connection therewith). Neither Borrower nor, to Borrower’s knowledge, any other Person party
thereto is in default in the performance or compliance with any provisions thereof. All Liquidation Sales Agreements comply with, and all Liquidation Sales prior to such time have been consummated in accordance with, all applicable laws. All
requisite approvals by Governmental Authorities having jurisdiction over Borrower and, to Borrower’s knowledge, Merchant and other Persons referenced therein, with respect to the transactions contemplated by 

  

 -26- 

 
such Liquidation Sales Agreements, have been obtained, and no such approvals impose any conditions to the consummation of the transactions contemplated by
such Liquidation Sales Agreements or to the conduct by Borrower of its business thereafter. To the best of Borrower’s knowledge, none of the Merchant’s representations or warranties in such Liquidation Sales Agreements contain any untrue
statement of a material fact or omit any fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading. Each of the representations and warranties given by Borrower in such Liquidation Sales Agreements is true and correct in all material respects.
Notwithstanding anything contained in such Liquidation Sales Agreements to the contrary, such representations and warranties of Borrower are incorporated into this Agreement by this Section 4.20 and shall, solely for purposes of this

has been rendered inaccurate thereby (and, in the case of any supplements to any Schedule, such Disclosure Schedule shall be appropriately marked to show the changes made therein); provided that (a) no such supplement to any such

provisions of this Agreement, if any provision contained in this Agreement is in conflict with, or inconsistent with, any provision in any of the other Loan Documents, the provision contained in this Agreement shall govern and control.

 -38- 

 
OR FEDERAL COURTS LOCATED IN LOS ANGELES COUNTY, CALIFORNIA SHALL HAVE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION TO HEAR AND DETERMINE ANY CLAIMS OR DISPUTES BETWEEN
BORROWER AND LENDER 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 LENDER AND BORROWER ACKNOWLEDGE THAT ANY
APPEALS FROM THOSE COURTS MAY HAVE TO BE HEARD BY A COURT LOCATED OUTSIDE OF LOS ANGELES COUNTY, CALIFORNIA AND; PROVIDED, FURTHER NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE DEEMED OR OPERATE TO PRECLUDE LENDER 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 LENDER. BORROWER EXPRESSLY SUBMITS AND CONSENTS IN ADVANCE TO SUCH
JURISDICTION IN ANY ACTION OR SUIT COMMENCED IN ANY SUCH COURT, AND BORROWER HEREBY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION THAT MAY HAVE BASED UPON LACK OF PERSONAL JURISDICTION, IMPROPER VENUE OR FORUM NON CONVENIENS AND HEREBY CONSENTS TO THE
GRANTING OF SUCH LEGAL OR EQUITABLE RELIEF AS IS DEEMED APPROPRIATE BY SUCH COURT. BORROWER HEREBY WAIVES PERSONAL SERVICE OF THE SUMMONS, 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 BORROWER AT THE ADDRESS SET FORTH IN SCHEDULE 11.10 OF THIS AGREEMENT AND THAT SERVICE SO MADE SHALL BE DEEMED COMPLETED UPON THE EARLIER OF
BORROWER’S ACTUAL RECEIPT THEREOF OR THREE (3) DAYS AFTER DEPOSIT IN THE U.S. MAIL, PROPER POSTAGE PREPAID. 
 11.10
Notices. Except as otherwise provided herein, whenever it is provided herein that any notice, demand, request, consent, approval, declaration or other communication shall or may be given to or served upon any of the parties by any other
parties, or whenever any of the parties desires to give or serve upon any other parties any communication with respect to this Agreement, each such notice, demand, request, consent, approval, declaration or other communication shall be in writing

notice required hereunder may be waived in writing by the party entitled to receive such notice. Failure or delay in delivering copies of any notice, demand, request, consent, approval, declaration or other communication to any Person (other than
Borrower or Lender) designated on Schedule 11.10 to receive copies shall in no way adversely affect the effectiveness of such notice, demand, request, consent, approval, declaration or other communication.

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. THEREFORE, 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,
BETWEEN LENDER AND BORROWER 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. Borrower 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 Liquidation Sales Agreements 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) Borrower or Affiliate is required to do so under law and then, in any event, Borrower or Affiliate will consult with GE Capital before issuing such press
release or other public disclosure. Borrower consents to the publication by Lender of a tombstone or similar advertising material relating to the financing transactions contemplated by this Agreement. 
 11.15 Reinstatement. This Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective should any petition be filed by or against
Borrower for liquidation or reorganization, should Borrower become insolvent or make an assignment for the benefit of any creditor or creditors or should a receiver or trustee be appointed for all or any significant part of Borrower’s assets,
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, 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.

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

Lender.

 ANNEX B (Section 2.1) 
 to  
 CREDIT AGREEMENT 
 LETTERS OF CREDIT 
 (a)
Issuance. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Lender agrees to incur from time to time prior to the Commitment Termination Date, upon the request of Borrower and for Borrower’s account, Letter of Credit Obligations by
causing Letters of Credit to be issued (by a bank or other legally authorized Person selected by or acceptable to Lender in its sole discretion (each, an “L/C Issuer”) for Borrower’s account and guaranteed by Lender;
provided, however, that the aggregate amount of all such Letter of Credit Obligations shall not at any time exceed the Revolving Loan Commitment less the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the Revolving Credit Advances. No such
Letter of Credit shall have an expiry date which is more than two hundred seventy (270) days following the date of issuance thereof, and Lender shall be under no obligation to incur Letter of Credit Obligations in respect of any Letter of
Credit having an expiry date which is later than the Commitment Termination Date. 
 (b) Revolving Credit Advances Automatic. In the
event that Lender shall make any payment on or pursuant to any Letter of Credit Obligation, such payment shall then be deemed automatically to constitute a Revolving Credit Advance to Borrower under Section 2.1 of this Agreement with
respect to the Liquidation Sale to which the Letter of Credit is related regardless of whether a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and notwithstanding Borrower’s failure to satisfy the conditions precedent set
forth in Section 3. 
 (c) Cash Collateral. If Borrower is required to provide cash collateral for any Letter of Credit
Obligations pursuant to this Agreement prior to the Commitment Termination Date, Borrower will pay to Lender cash or cash equivalents acceptable to Lender (“Cash Equivalents”) in an amount equal to 100% of the Revolving Loan
Commitment then available to be drawn under each applicable Letter of Credit outstanding for the benefit of Borrower. Such funds or Cash Equivalents shall be held by Lender in a cash collateral account (the “Cash Collateral
Account”) maintained at a bank or financial institution acceptable to Lender. The Cash Collateral Account shall be in the name of Borrower, and shall be pledged to, and subject to the control of, Lender in a manner satisfactory to Lender.
Borrower hereby pledges and grants to Lender a security interest in all such funds and Cash Equivalents held in the Cash Collateral Account from time to time and all proceeds thereof, as security for the payment of all amounts due in respect of the
Letter of Credit Obligations and other Obligations incurred by Borrower in connection with the applicable Liquidation Sale, whether or not then due. This Agreement, including this Annex B, shall constitute a security agreement under
applicable law. 
 If any Letter of Credit Obligations, whether or not then due and payable, shall for any reason be outstanding on the
Commitment Termination Date, Borrower shall either (i) provide cash collateral therefor in the manner described above, or (ii) cause all such Letters of Credit and guaranties thereof to be canceled and returned, or (iii) deliver a
stand-by letter (or letters) of credit in guarantee of such Letter of Credit Obligations, which stand-by letter (or 

  

 B-1 

 
letters) of credit shall be of like tenor and duration as, and in an amount equal to 100% of the aggregate maximum amount then available to be drawn under,
the Letters of Credit to which such outstanding Letter of Credit Obligations relate and shall be issued by a Person, and shall be subject to such terms and conditions, as are satisfactory to Lender in its sole discretion. 
 From time to time after funds are deposited in the Cash Collateral Account by Borrower, whether before or after the Commitment Termination Date, Lender
may apply such funds or Cash Equivalents then held in the Cash Collateral Account to the payment of any amounts due and payable by Borrower to Lender with respect to the Letter of Credit Obligations of Borrower in connection with the applicable
Liquidation Sale and, upon the satisfaction in full of all such Letter of Credit Obligations of Borrower, to any other Obligations of Borrower then due and payable to Lender in connection with such Liquidation Sale. 
 Neither Borrower nor any Person claiming on behalf of or through Borrower shall have any right to withdraw any of the funds or Cash Equivalents held in
the Cash Collateral Account, except that upon the termination of all Letter of Credit Obligations in connection with any Liquidation Sale and the payment of all amounts payable by Borrower to Lender in respect thereof, any funds remaining in the
Cash Collateral Account with respect to such Liquidation Sale shall be applied to other Obligations with respect to such Liquidation Sale when due and owing and upon payment in full of such Obligations, any remaining amount shall be paid to Borrower
or as otherwise required by law. 
 (d) Fees and Expenses. Borrower agrees to pay to Lender, as compensation to Lender for Letter of
Credit Obligations incurred hereunder, (i) all costs and expenses incurred by Lender on account of such Letter of Credit Obligations, and (ii) for each month during which any Letter of Credit Obligation shall remain outstanding, a fee (the
“Letter of Credit Fee”) in an amount equal to two and one-quarter percent (2.25%) per annum multiplied by the maximum amount available from time to time to be drawn under the applicable Letter of Credit. Such fee shall be paid
to Lender in arrears on the first day of each month. In addition, Borrower shall pay to any L/C Issuer, on demand, such fees (including all per annum fees), charges and expenses of such L/C Issuer in respect of the issuance, negotiation, acceptance,
amendment, transfer and payment of such Letter of Credit or otherwise payable pursuant to the application and related documentation under which such Letter of Credit is issued. 
 (e) Obligation Absolute. The obligation of Borrower to reimburse Lender for payments made with respect to any Letter of Credit Obligation shall be
absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, without necessity of presentment, demand, protest or other formalities. Such obligations of Borrower shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms hereof under all circumstances, including the following
circumstances: 
 (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or this Agreement or the other Loan
Documents or any other agreement; 
 (ii) the existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other right which Borrower or any of
its affiliates may at any time have against a beneficiary or any transferee of any Letter of Credit (or any Persons or entities for whom any such transferee may be acting), Lender, or any other Person, whether in connection with this 

  

 B-2 

 
Agreement, the Letter of Credit, the transactions contemplated herein or therein or any unrelated transaction (including any underlying transaction between
Borrower or any of its affiliates and the beneficiary for which the Letter of Credit was procured); 
 (iii) any draft,
demand, certificate or any other document presented under any Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; 
 (iv) payment by Lender or any L/C Issuer under any Letter of Credit or guaranty thereof against presentation of a demand, draft or
certificate or other document which does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit or such guaranty (except any payment by Lender that was made solely as a result of Lender’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, as finally
determined by a court of competent jurisdiction, in determining that the demand for payment under any Letter of Credit or guaranty thereof complies on its face with any applicable requirements for a demand for payment under such Letter of Credit or
guaranty thereof); 
 (v) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, which is similar to any of the foregoing; or

 (vi) the fact that a Default or an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. 
 (f) Indemnification; Nature of Lender’s Duties. 
 (i) In addition to amounts payable as elsewhere provided in this Agreement, Borrower hereby agrees to pay and to protect, indemnify, and save Lender harmless from and against any and all claims, demands, liabilities,
damages, losses, costs, charges and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and allocated costs of internal counsel) which Lender may incur or be subject to as a consequence, direct or indirect, of (A) the issuance of any Letter of Credit or
guaranty thereof, or (B) the failure of Lender or of any L/C Issuer to honor a demand for payment under any Letter of Credit or guaranty thereof as a result of any act or omission, whether rightful or wrongful, of any present or future de jure
or de facto government or Governmental Authority, in each case other than to the extent solely as a result of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Lender (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction). 
 (ii) As between Lender and Borrower, Borrower assumes all risks of the acts and omissions of, or misuse of any Letter of Credit by
beneficiaries of any Letter of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, to the fullest extent permitted by law, Lender shall not be responsible: (A) for the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal
effect of any document issued by any party in connection with the application for and issuance of any Letter of Credit, even if it should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged;
(B) for the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign any Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be
invalid or ineffective for any 

  

 B-3 

 
reason; (C) for failure of the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit to comply fully with conditions required in order to demand payment under such Letter
of Credit; provided that, in the case of any payment by Lender under any Letter of Credit or guaranty thereof, Lender shall be liable to the extent such payment was made solely as a result of its gross negligence or willful misconduct (as
finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction) in determining that the demand for payment under such Letter of Credit or guaranty thereof complies on its face with any applicable requirements for a demand for payment under such Letter of
Credit or guaranty thereof; (D) for errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, cable, telegraph, telex or otherwise, whether or not they be in cipher; (E) for errors in interpretation
of technical terms; (F) for any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a payment under any Letter of Credit or guaranty thereof or of the proceeds thereof; (G) for the credit of the
proceeds of any drawing under any Letter of Credit or guaranty thereof; and (H) for any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of Lender. None of the above shall affect, impair, or prevent the vesting of any of Lender’s rights
or powers hereunder or under this Agreement. 
 (iii) Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit or to expand any
waivers, covenants or indemnities made by Borrower in favor of any L/C Issuer in any letter of credit application, reimbursement agreement or similar document, instrument or agreement between Borrower and such L/C Issuer.

 SECURED PROMISSORY NOTE 
  

			
	$                    	  	Los Angeles, California
		  	                    ,    

 FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned, GREAT AMERICAN VENTURE, LLC, a California limited liability
company (“Borrower”), hereby promises to pay to the order of GENERAL ELECTRIC CAPITAL CORPORATION (“Lender”), or its assigns, at its address at 350 South Beverly Drive, Suite 200, Beverly Hills, California 90212, or at such other
place as Lender may designate from time to time in writing, in lawful money of the United States of America and in immediately available funds, the principal amount of
                     DOLLARS
($                    ), or if less, the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Liquidation Loan (as defined in the Credit Agreement, as
hereinafter defined) made to Borrower in connection with the particular Liquidation Sale (as defined in the Credit Agreement) with respect to which this Secured Promissory Note is executed. This Secured Promissory Note is executed with respect to
the Liquidation Sale for                      (“Merchant”) to be conducted by Borrower pursuant to that certain [Agency
Agreement/Purchase Agreement] dated             ,    , between Merchant and Borrower. 
 All capitalized terms, unless otherwise defined herein, shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Credit Agreement dated as of October 25, 2000 (as the same may be subsequently amended, restated or
otherwise modified, the “Credit Agreement”) by and between Borrower and Lender. This Secured Promissory Note is issued pursuant to the Credit Agreement and is entitled to the benefit and security of the Loan Documents provided for
therein, to which reference is hereby made for a statement of all of the terms and conditions under which the Liquidation Loan evidenced hereby is made and to be repaid. All of the terms, covenants and conditions of the Credit Agreement and all
other instruments evidencing or securing the indebtedness hereunder, including the Loan Documents, are hereby made a part of this Secured Promissory Note and are deemed incorporated herein in full. The date and amount of each Revolving Credit
Advance made by Lender to Borrower, the rates of interest applicable thereto and each payment made on account of the principal thereof, shall be recorded by Lender on its books; provided, that the failure of Lender to make any such
recordation shall not affect the obligations of Borrower to make a payment when due of any amount owing under the Credit Agreement or this Secured Promissory Note with respect to the Revolving Credit Advances made by Lender to Borrower. 

The principal amount of the indebtedness from time to time evidenced hereby shall be payable in the amounts and on the dates specified in the Credit
Agreement and, if not sooner paid in full, on the Commitment Termination Date. Interest on the outstanding principal amount of this Secured Promissory Note shall be paid until such principal amount is paid in full at such rates of interest,
including the Default Rate, if applicable, and at such times as are specified in the Credit Agreement. 
  

 -1- 

 If any payment or prepayment on this Secured Promissory Note becomes due and payable on a day other than
a Business Day, the maturity thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and, with respect to payments of principal, interest thereon shall be payable at the then applicable rate during such extension. 
 Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, this Secured Promissory Note may, as provided in the Credit Agreement, without
demand, notice or legal process of any kind, be declared, and upon such declaration immediately shall become, or upon certain circumstances set forth in the Credit Agreement may become without declaration, due and payable. 
 In no contingency or event whatsoever, whether by reason of advancement of the proceeds hereof or otherwise, shall the amount paid or agreed to be paid
to Lender for the use, forbearance or detention of money advanced hereunder exceed the Maximum Lawful Rate. If a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final order that the rate of interest payable hereunder exceeds 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, Borrower shall continue to pay interest hereunder at the Maximum Lawful Rate until such time as the total interest received by Lender 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. Thereafter, interest hereunder shall be paid at the rate(s) of interest and in the manner
provided in Section 2.4 of the Credit Agreement, unless and until the rate of interest again exceeds the Maximum Lawful Rate, and at that time this paragraph shall again apply. 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. If the Maximum Lawful Rate is calculated pursuant
to this paragraph, such interest shall be calculated at a daily rate equal to the Maximum Lawful Rate divided by the number of days in the year in which such calculation is made. If, notwithstanding the provisions of
Section 2.4(e) of the Credit Agreement, a court of competent jurisdiction shall finally determine that a Lender has received interest hereunder in excess of the Maximum Lawful Rate, Lender shall, to the extent permitted by
applicable law, promptly apply such excess in the order specified in Section 2.8 of the Credit Agreement and thereafter shall refund any excess to Borrower or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise order. 

Wherever possible each provision of this Secured Promissory Note shall be interpreted in such a manner as to be effective and valid under applicable
law, but if any provision of this Secured Promissory Note shall be prohibited 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 remaining provisions of this Secured Promissory Note. 
  

 -2- 

 Time is of the essence of this Secured Promissory Note. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable
law, Borrower waives: (a) presentment, demand and protest, and notice of presentment, dishonor, intent to accelerate, acceleration, protest, default, nonpayment, maturity, release, compromise, settlement, extension or renewal of any or all Loan
Documents, notes, commercial paper, accounts, contract rights, documents, instruments, chattel paper and guaranties at any time held by Lender on which Borrower may in any way be liable, and hereby ratifies and confirms whatever Lender may do in
this regard; (b) all rights to notice and a hearing prior to Lender’s taking possession or control of, or to Lender’s replevy, attachment or levy upon, the Collateral or any bond or security that might be required by any court prior
to allowing Lender to exercise any of its remedies; and (c) the benefit of all valuation, appraisal and exemption laws. 
 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. THEREFORE, TO ACHIEVE THE BEST COMBINATION OF THE BENEFITS OF THE JUDICIAL SYSTEM AND OF ARBITRATION, BORROWER WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION,
SUIT, OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT TO ENFORCE OR DEFEND ANY RIGHTS OR REMEDIES UNDER THIS SECURED PROMISSORY NOTE OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, WHETHER ARISING IN CONTRACT OR TORT OR OTHERWISE. 
 THIS SECURED PROMISSORY NOTE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND INTERPRETED AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA WITHOUT REGARD TO
THE PRINCIPLES THEREOF REGARDING CONFLICT OF LAWS, AND ANY APPLICABLE LAWS OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.
