      Dealer will immediately pay to CDF an amount not less than the difference between (i) Aggregate Accounts Receivable Outstandings and (ii) the Accounts Receivable Facility Limit.  If, at any time, the Aggregate Outstandings exceed the Aggregate
      Facility Limit, Dealer will immediately pay to CDF an amount not less than the difference between (i) Aggregate Outstandings and (ii) the Aggregate Facility Limit.”

    “2.1.1 Interest.
      Dealer agrees to pay interest to CDF on the Daily Contract Balance at a rate equal to the Libor Rate plus two percent (2.00%) per annum. Such interest will: (i) be computed based on a 360 day year; (ii) be calculated each day by multiplying the Daily
      Rate (as defined below) by the Daily Contract Balance (as defined below); and (iii) accrue from the date that CDF authorizes any Electronic Transfer (as defined in Section

          3.10 herein) or otherwise makes an advance under the Accounts Receivable Facility until CDF receives the full and final payment of the principal debt which Dealer owes to CDF, subject to the terms of Section 3.8 herein. The “Daily Rate” is the quotient of the applicable annual rate provided herein divided by 360. The “Daily Contract Balance” is the amount of the outstanding principal
      debt which Dealer owes to CDF on the Accounts Receivable Facility at the end of each day (including the amount of all Electronic Transfers authorized) after CDF has credited• the payments which it has received on the Accounts Receivable Facility,
      subject to the terms of Section 3.8 herein.”

      of goods by any obligor, delays in delivery of goods, non-performance of contracts and of any assertion of any claim, offset or counterclaim by any obligor, in excess of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000.00); and (iii) include Dealer's internal risk rating for each obligor and (b) an Inventory Report. Furthermore, together with each submission of a Schedule, and, in any event, not less than
      monthly or as otherwise agreed to, Dealer will also furnish CDF with detailed aging reports for its accounts receivable and accounts payable as well as detailed journals to support the Accounts described on such Schedule.

    

    

    Dealer will furnish CDF with a Borrowing Base Certificate (a) no less than every second Tuesday, provided that such
      Borrowing Base Certificate shall be delivered every Tuesday if (i) a Default has occurred and is continuing under Section 6 of the Agreement or (ii) Excess Availability for three (3) consecutive business days is less than the greater of (A) 12.5% of
      the Gross Borrowing Base or (B) Seventeen Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($17,500,000.00) or (b) as otherwise agreed to by CDF and Dealer.”

      time to time established by CDF, (C) minus such reserves established by CDF from time to time based upon dilution and other factors deemed appropriate by CDF (the “Available Credit”).

    

    

    7. Section 3.7 of the Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:

    

    

    “3.7 Collections.
      Unless otherwise directed by CDF, to expedite collection of Accounts for the benefit of CDF, Dealer shall notify all of its obligors to make payment of the Accounts to one or more lock-boxes. The lock-box(es), and all accounts into which the proceeds
      of any such lock- box(es) are deposited, shall be established and maintained at banks selected by the Dealer and satisfactory to CDF in its sole discretion. Dealer shall issue to any such banks an irrevocable letter of instruction, in form and
      substance reasonably acceptable to CDF, directing such banks to deposit all payments or other remittances received in the lock-box to such account or accounts as CDF shall direct. At all times after either (i) a Default by Dealer, or (ii) the Excess
      Availability for three (3) consecutive business days is less than the greater of (a) Fifteen Million Dollars ($15,000,000.00) or (b) 10% of Dealer’s Gross Borrowing Base, CDF may provide notice to such banks that thereafter all funds deposited in the
      lock-box or any such account immediately shall become the property of CDF, and any disbursements of the proceeds in the lock-box or any such account will only be made to CDF. Dealer shall obtain the agreement of such banks to waive any offset rights
      against the funds so deposited and otherwise establish CDF’s control thereof as secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code. CDF assumes no responsibility for such lock-box arrangement, including, without limitation, any claim of accord and
      satisfaction or release with respect to deposits which any banks except thereunder. All remittances which Dealer receives in payment of any Accounts, and the proceeds of any of the other Collateral, shall be immediately deposited in such accounts
      designated by CDF.  All proceeds received or collected by CDF with respect to Accounts, and reserves and other property of Dealer in possession of CDF at any time or times hereafter, may be held by CDF without Interest to Dealer until all Obligations
      are paid in full or applied by CDF on account of the Obligations.  CDF may release to Dealer such portions of such reserves and proceeds as CDF may determine. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default, CDF may notify the obligors
      that the Accounts have been assigned to CDF, collect the Accounts directly in its own name and charge the collection costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees, to Dealer.  CDF has no duty to protect, insure, collect or realize upon the Accounts
      to preserve rights in them.”

      of days in such calendar quarter, and (ii) the denominator of which shall be the Aggregate Facility Limit for each day of such calendar quarter divided by the number of days in such calendar quarter.
