Section 2.1. Advances. The Lender may, in its sole discretion, subject to the terms
and conditions of this Agreement, make advances (“Advances”) to the Borrower from time to time from
the date that all of the conditions set forth in Section 4.1 are satisfied (the “Funding Date”) to
and until (but not including) the Termination Date in an aggregate amount not in excess of the
Maximum Line Amount. The Lender shall not consider any request for an Advance to the extent that
the amount of the requested Advance exceeds Availability. The Borrower’s obligation to pay the
Advances shall be evidenced by the Revolving Note and shall be secured by the Collateral. Within
the limits set forth in this Section 2.1, the Borrower may request Advances, prepay pursuant to
Section 2.10, and request additional Advances.

Section 2.2. Procedures for Requesting Advances. The Borrower shall comply with the
following procedures in requesting Advances:

(a) Time for Requests. The Borrower shall request each Advance so that it is received
by Lender not later than the Cut-off Time on the Business Day on which the Advance is to be made.
Each request that conforms to the terms of this Agreement shall be effective upon receipt by the
Lender, shall be in writing or by telephone or telecopy transmission, and shall be confirmed in
writing by the Borrower if so requested by the Lender, by (i) an Officer of the Borrower; or (ii) a
Person designated as the Borrower’s agent by an Officer of the Borrower in a writing delivered to
the Lender; or (iii) a Person whom the Lender reasonably believes to be an Officer of the Borrower
or such a designated agent. The Borrower shall repay all Advances even if the Lender does not
receive such confirmation and even if the Person requesting an Advance was not in fact authorized
to do so. Any request for an Advance, whether written or telephonic, shall be deemed to be a
representation by the Borrower that the conditions set forth in Section 4.2 have been satisfied as
of the time of the request.

(b) Disbursement. Upon fulfillment of the applicable conditions set forth in
Article IV, the Lender shall disburse the proceeds of the requested Advance by ACH pursuant to the
directions set forth in the most current ACH Instruction Form delivered to the Lender by the
Borrower. The Lender may also initiate an Advance and disburse the proceeds to any third Person in
such amounts as the Lender, in its sole discretion, deems necessary to protect its interest in any
Collateral or to purchase Collateral or to exercise any other rights granted to it by the Borrower
under Section 6.26.

Section 2.3. Letters of Credit.

(a) The Lender may in its sole discretion, subject to the terms and conditions of this
Agreement, issue or cause an Issuer to issue, at any time after the Funding Date and prior to the
Termination Date, one or more irrevocable standby or documentary letters of credit (each, a “Letter
of Credit”) for the Borrower’s account. The Lender will not issue, or cause an Issuer to issue,
any Letter of Credit if the face amount of the Letter of Credit to be issued would exceed the
lesser of:

(i) $500,000 less the L/C Amount, or

(ii) Availability.

 

13

 

Each Letter of Credit, if any, shall be issued pursuant to a separate L/C Application made by the
Borrower and the Lender for the benefit of the Issuer and completed in a manner satisfactory to the
Lender and the Issuer. The terms and conditions set forth in each such L/C Application shall
supplement the terms and conditions of the Standby Letter of Credit Agreement.

(b) No Letter of Credit shall be issued with an expiry date later than one (1) year from the
date of issuance or the Maturity Date in effect as of the date of issuance, whichever is earlier.

(c) Any request for issuance of a Letter of Credit shall be deemed to be a representation by
the Borrower that the conditions set forth in Section 4.2 have been satisfied as of the date of the
request.

(d) If a draft is submitted under a Letter of Credit when the Borrower is unable, because a
Default Period exists or for any other reason, to obtain an Advance to pay the Obligation of
Reimbursement, the Borrower shall pay to the Lender on demand and in immediately available funds,
the amount of the Obligation of Reimbursement together with interest, accrued from the date of the
draft until payment in full at the Default Rate. Notwithstanding the Borrower’s inability to
obtain an Advance for any reason, the Lender may, in its sole discretion, make an Advance in an
amount sufficient to discharge any outstanding Obligation of Reimbursement and any accrued but
unpaid interest and fees payable with respect to same.

Section 2.4. Special Account. If the Credit Facility is terminated for any reason
while any Letter of Credit is outstanding, the Borrower shall thereupon pay the Lender in
immediately available funds for deposit in the Special Account an amount equal to the L/C Amount
plus any anticipated fees and costs. If the Borrower fails to promptly make any such payment in
the amount required hereunder, then the Lender may make an Advance against the Credit Facility in
an amount sufficient to fulfill this obligation and deposit the proceeds to the Special Account.
The Special Account shall be an interest bearing account either maintained with the Lender or with
a financial institution acceptable to the Lender. Any interest earned on amounts deposited in the
Special Account shall be credited to the Special Account. The Lender may apply amounts on deposit
in the Special Account at any time or from time to time to the Indebtedness in the Lender’s sole
discretion. The Borrower may not withdraw any amounts on deposit in the Special Account as long as
the Lender maintains a security interest therein. The Lender agrees to transfer any balance in the
Special Account to the Borrower when the Lender is required to release its security interest in the
Special Account under applicable law.

Section 2.5. Interest; Default Interest Rate; Application of Payments; Participations;
Usury.

(a) Interest. Except as provided in Section 2.5(b) and Section 2.5(e), the principal
amount of each Advance shall bear interest at the Floating Rate.

 

14

 

(b) Default Interest Rate. At any time during any Default Period or following the
Termination Date, in the Lender’s sole discretion and without waiving any of its other rights or
remedies, the principal of the Revolving Note shall bear interest at the Default Rate or such
lesser rate as the Lender may determine, effective as of the first day of the month in which any
Default Period begins through the last day of such Default Period, or any shorter time period that
the Lender may determine. The decision of the Lender to impose a rate that is less than the
Default Rate or to not impose the Default Rate for the entire duration of the Default Period shall
be made by the Lender in its sole discretion and shall not be a waiver of any of its other rights
and remedies, including its right to retroactively impose the full Default Rate for the entirety of
any such Default Period or following the Termination Date.

(c) Application of Payments. Payments shall be applied to the Indebtedness on the
Business Day of receipt by the Lender in the Lender’s general account, but the amount of principal
paid shall continue to accrue interest at the interest rate applicable under the terms of this
Agreement from the calendar day the Lender receives the payment, and continuing through the end of
the fourth Business Day following receipt of the payment.

(d) Participations. If any Person shall acquire a participation in the Advances or
the Obligation of Reimbursement, the Borrower shall be obligated to the Lender to pay the full
amount of all interest calculated under this Section 2.5, along with all other fees, charges and
other amounts due under this Agreement, regardless if such Person elects to accept interest with
respect to its participation at a lower rate than that calculated under this Section 2.5, or
otherwise elects to accept less than its pro-rata share of such fees, charges and other amounts due
under this Agreement.

(e) Usury. In any event no rate change shall be put into effect which would result in
a rate greater than the highest rate permitted by law. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained in any Loan Document, all agreements which either now are or which shall become
agreements between the Borrower and the Lender are hereby limited so that in no contingency or
event whatsoever shall the total liability for payments in the nature of interest, additional
interest and other charges exceed the applicable limits imposed by any applicable usury laws. If
any payments in the nature of interest, additional interest and other charges made under any Loan
Document are held to be in excess of the limits imposed by any applicable usury laws, it is agreed
that any such amount held to be in excess shall be considered payment of principal hereunder, and
the indebtedness evidenced hereby shall be reduced by such amount so that the total liability for
payments in the nature of interest, additional interest and other charges shall not exceed the
applicable limits imposed by any applicable usury laws, in compliance with the desires of the
Borrower and the Lender. This provision shall never be superseded or waived and shall control
every other provision of the Loan Documents and all agreements between the Borrower and the Lender,
or their successors and assigns.

Section 2.6. Fees.

(a) Origination Fee. The Borrower shall pay the Lender a fully earned and
non-refundable origination fee of $40,000, due and payable upon the execution of this Agreement.

 

15

 

(b) Facility Fee. The Borrower shall pay the Lender an annual facility fee of
one-half of one percent (0.50%) of the Maximum Line Amount, which facility fee shall be payable
annually on each [insert month and day of closing], commencing [insert month and day of closing],
2011.

(c) Collateral Exam Fees. The Borrower shall pay the Lender fees in connection with
any collateral exams, audits or inspections conducted by or on behalf of the Lender of any
Collateral or of the Borrower’s operations or business at the rates established from time to time
by the Lender (which fees are currently $110 per hour per collateral examiner), together with any
related out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Lender. Notwithstanding the immediately
preceding sentence, so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, such
exams, audits or inspections shall be limited to one (1) per calendar year by the Lender at the
cost and expense of the Borrower; provided, however, that (i) any such exams, audits or inspections
which are made while any Default or Event of Default has occurred is continuing shall not be
subject to the foregoing limitation and shall be at the sole cost and expense of the Borrower, and
(ii) any such exams, audits or inspections which are made at the cost and expense of the Lender,
regardless of whether a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, shall not be
limited to one (1) per calendar year.

(d) Letter of Credit Fees. The Borrower shall pay to the Lender a fee with respect to
each Letter of Credit that has been issued which shall be calculated on a per diem basis at an
annual rate equal to three percent (3.0%) of the Aggregate Face Amount, from and including the date
of issuance of the Letter of Credit until the date that the Letter of Credit terminates or is
returned to the Lender, which fee shall be due and payable monthly in arrears on the first day of
each month and on the date that the Letter of Credit terminates or is returned to the Lender;
provided, however, effective as of the first day of the month in which any Default
Period begins through the last day of such Default Period, or any shorter time period that the
Lender may determine, in the Lender’s sole discretion and without waiving any of its other rights
and remedies, such fee shall increase to seven percent (7.0%) of the Aggregate Face Amount. The
foregoing fee shall be in addition to any other fees, commissions and charges imposed by Lender
with respect to such Letter of Credit.

(e) Letter of Credit Administrative Fees. The Borrower shall pay all administrative
fees charged by Lender in connection with the honoring of drafts under any Letter of Credit,
amendments thereto, transfers thereof and all other activity with respect to the Letters of Credit
at the then-current rates published by Lender for such services rendered on behalf of customers of
Lender generally.

(f) Termination and Line Reduction Fees. If, prior to [insert month and day of
closing], 2011, (i) the Lender terminates the Credit Facility during a Default Period or (ii) the
Borrower terminates or reduces the Credit Facility, then the Borrower shall pay the Lender as
liquidated damages and not as a penalty a termination fee in an amount equal to two percent (2.00%)
of the Maximum Line Amount (or the reduction of the Maximum Line Amount, as the case may be). If,
on or after [insert month and day of closing], 2011, (i) the Lender terminates the Credit Facility
during a Default Period or (ii) the Borrower terminates or reduces the Credit Facility, then the
Borrower shall pay the Lender as liquidated damages and not as a penalty a
termination fee in an amount equal to one percent (1.00%) of the Maximum Line Amount (or the
reduction of the Maximum Line Amount, as the case may be).

 

16

 

(g) Overadvance Fees. The Borrower shall pay an Overadvance fee in the amount of $500
for each day or portion thereof during which an Overadvance exists, regardless of how the
Overadvance arises or whether or not the Overadvance has been agreed to in advance by the Lender.
The acceptance of payment of an Overadvance fee by the Lender shall not be deemed to constitute
either consent to the Overadvance or a waiver of the resulting Event of Default, unless the Lender
specifically consents to the Overadvance in writing and waives the Event of Default on whatever
conditions the Lender deems appropriate.

Section 2.7. Time for Interest Payments; Payment on Non-Business Days; Computation of
Interest and Fees.

(a) Time For Interest Payments. Accrued and unpaid interest shall be due and payable
on the first day of each month and on the Termination Date (each an “Interest Payment Date”), or if
any such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day. Interest will accrue from
the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from the
date of advance to the Interest Payment Date. If an Interest Payment Date is not a Business Day,
payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day.

(b) Payment on Non-Business Days. Whenever any payment to be made hereunder shall be
stated to be due on a day which is not a Business Day, such payment may be made on the next
succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the
computation of interest on the Advances or the fees hereunder, as the case may be.

(c) Computation of Interest and Fees. Interest accruing on the outstanding principal
balance of the Advances and fees hereunder outstanding from time to time shall be computed on the
basis of actual number of days elapsed in a year of 360 days.

Section 2.8. Lockbox.

(a) The Borrower shall instruct all account debtors to pay all Accounts directly to the
Lockbox. If, notwithstanding such instructions, the Borrower receives any payments on Accounts,
the Borrower shall immediately mail such payments directly to the Lockbox. The Borrower shall also
immediately mail all other cash proceeds of Collateral regardless of source or nature directly to
the Lockbox. Until so deposited, the Borrower shall hold all such payments and cash proceeds in
trust for and as the property of the Lender and shall not commingle such property with any of its
other funds or property. All items received in the Lockbox shall be deposited in the Lender’s
Account, and shall constitute proceeds of Collateral and shall not constitute payment of the
Indebtedness.

(b) All items deposited in the Lender’s Account shall be subject to final payment. If any
such item is returned uncollected, the Borrower will immediately pay the Lender, or, for items
deposited in the Lender’s Account, the bank maintaining such account, the amount of that item, or
such bank at its discretion may charge any uncollected item to the Borrower’s commercial account or
other account. The Borrower shall be liable as an endorser on all items deposited in the Lender’s
Account, whether or not in fact endorsed by the Borrower.

 

17

 

(c) The Lender will apply payments deposited in the Lender’s Account from time to time
(subject to final collection) against the Indebtedness in accordance with the Borrower’s
instructions. If any item deposited in the Lender’s Account is returned unpaid, the application of
such item by the Lender will be reversed.

Section 2.9. Discretionary Nature of this Facility; Termination by the Lender; Automatic
Renewal. This Agreement contains the terms and conditions upon which the Lender presently
expects to make Advances to the Borrower. Each Advance shall be in the Lender’s sole discretion,
and the Lender need not show that an adverse change has occurred in the Borrower’s condition,
financial or otherwise, or that any of the conditions of Article IV have not been met, in order to
refuse to make any requested Advance or to demand payment of the Indebtedness. The Lender may at
any time terminate the Credit Facility whereupon the Lender shall no longer consider requests for
Advances under this Agreement. Unless terminated by the Lender at any time or by the Borrower
pursuant to Section 2.10, the Credit Facility shall remain in effect until the Maturity Date.

Section 2.10. Voluntary Prepayment; Termination of the Credit Facility by the
Borrower. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Borrower may prepay the Advances in whole
at any time or from time to time in part. The Borrower may terminate the Credit Facility or reduce
the Maximum Line Amount at any time if it (i) gives the Lender at least forty-five (45) days
advance written notice prior to the proposed Termination Date and (ii) pays the Lender applicable
termination and Maximum Line Amount reduction fees in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
Any reduction in the Maximum Line Amount shall be in multiples of $100,000, and with a minimum
reduction of at least $500,000. If the Borrower terminates the Credit Facility or reduces the
Maximum Line Amount to zero, all Indebtedness shall be immediately due and payable, and if the
Borrower gives the Lender less than the required forty-five (45) days advance written notice, then
the interest rate applicable to borrowings evidenced by Revolving Note shall be the Default Rate
for the period of time commencing forty-five (45) days prior to the proposed Termination Date
through the date that the Lender actually receives such written notice. If the Borrower does not
wish the Lender to consider renewal of the Credit Facility on the next Maturity Date, then the
Borrower shall give the Lender at least forty-five (45) days written notice prior to the Maturity
Date that it will not be requesting renewal. If the Borrower fails to give the Lender such timely
notice, then the interest rate applicable to borrowings evidenced by the Revolving Note shall be
the Default Rate for the period of time commencing forty-five (45) days prior to the Maturity Date
through the date that the Lender actually receives such written notice.

Section 2.11. Mandatory Prepayment. Without notice or demand unless the Lender shall
otherwise consent in a written agreement that sets forth the terms and conditions which the Lender
in its discretion may deem appropriate, including without limitation the payment of an Overadvance
fee, if an Overadvance shall at any time exist with respect to the Credit Facility, then the
Borrower shall immediately prepay the Advances to the extent necessary to eliminate such excess
(due, for example, to the L/C Amount). Any voluntary or mandatory prepayment received by the
Lender under this Agreement may be applied to the Indebtedness, in such order and in such amounts
as the Lender in its sole discretion may determine from time to time.

 

18

 

Section 2.12. Advances to Pay Indebtedness. Notwithstanding the terms of Section 2.1,
the Lender may, in its discretion at any time or from time to time, without the Borrower’s request
and even if the conditions set forth in Section 4.2 would not be satisfied, make an Advance in an
amount equal to the portion of the Indebtedness from time to time due and payable.

Section 2.13. Use of Proceeds. The Borrower shall use the proceeds of Advances and
each Letter of Credit for ordinary working capital purposes, repayment of outstanding debt and any
other corporate purpose.

Section 2.14. Liability Records. The Lender may maintain from time to time, at its
discretion, records as to the Indebtedness. All entries made on any such record shall be presumed
correct until the Borrower establishes the contrary. Upon the Lender’s demand, the Borrower will
admit and certify in writing the exact principal balance of the Indebtedness that the Borrower then
asserts to be outstanding. Any billing statement or accounting rendered by the Lender shall be
conclusive (absent manifest error) and fully binding on the Borrower unless the Borrower gives the
Lender specific written notice of exception within 30 days after receipt of such statement or
accounting by Borrower.

ARTICLE 3.

SECURITY INTEREST; OCCUPANCY; SETOFF

Section 3.1. Grant of Security Interest. The Borrower hereby pledges, assigns and
grants to the Lender, a lien and security interest (collectively referred to as the “Security
Interest”) in the Collateral, as security for the payment and performance of (a) all present and
future Indebtedness of the Borrower to the Lender; (b) all obligations of the Borrower and rights
of the Lender under this Agreement; and (c) all present and future obligations of the Borrower to
the Lender of other kinds. Upon request by the Lender, the Borrower will grant to the Lender a
security interest in all commercial tort claims that the Borrower may have against any Person.

Section 3.2. Notification of Account Debtors and Other Obligors. The Lender may at
any time (whether or not a Default Period then exists) notify any account debtor or other Person
obligated to pay the amount due that such right to payment has been assigned or transferred to the
Lender for security and shall be paid directly to the Lender. The Borrower will join in giving
such notice if the Lender so requests. At any time after the Borrower or the Lender gives such
notice to an account debtor or other obligor, the Lender may, but need not, in the Lender’s name or
in the Borrower’s name, demand, sue for, collect or receive any money or property at any time
payable or receivable on account of, or securing, any such right to payment, or grant any extension
to, make any compromise or settlement with or otherwise agree to waive, modify, amend or change the
obligations (including collateral obligations) of any such account debtor or other obligor. The
Lender may, in the Lender’s name or in the Borrower’s name, as the Borrower’s agent and
attorney-in-fact, notify the United States Postal Service to change the address for delivery of the
Borrower’s mail to any address designated by the Lender, otherwise intercept the Borrower’s mail,
and receive, open and dispose of the Borrower’s mail, applying all Collateral as permitted under
this Agreement and holding all other mail for the Borrower’s account or forwarding such mail to the
Borrower’s last known address.

 

19

 

Section 3.3. Assignment of Insurance. As additional security for the payment and
performance of the Indebtedness, the Borrower hereby assigns to the Lender any and all monies
(including proceeds of insurance and refunds of unearned premiums) due or to become due under, and
all other rights of the Borrower with respect to, any and all policies of insurance now or at any
time hereafter covering the Collateral or any evidence thereof or any business records or valuable
papers pertaining thereto, and the Borrower hereby directs the issuer of any such policy to pay all
such monies directly to the Lender. At any time, whether or not a Default Period then exists, the
Lender may (but need not), in the Lender’s name or in the Borrower’s name, execute and deliver
proof of claim, receive all such monies, endorse checks and other instruments representing payment
of such monies, and adjust, litigate, compromise or release any claim against the issuer of any
such policy. Any monies received as payment for any loss under any insurance policy mentioned
above (other than liability insurance policies) or as payment of any award or compensation for
condemnation or taking by eminent domain, shall be paid over to the Lender to be applied, at the
option of the Lender, either to the prepayment of the Indebtedness or shall be disbursed to the
Borrower under staged payment terms reasonably satisfactory to the Lender for application to the
cost of repairs, replacements, or restorations. Any such repairs, replacements, or restorations
shall be affected with reasonable promptness and shall be of a value at least equal to the value of
the items or property destroyed prior to such damage or destruction.

Section 3.4. Occupancy. Subject to the terms, limitations and obligations in the
Landlord’s Waiver and the Mortgagee’s Waiver:

(a) The Borrower hereby irrevocably grants to the Lender the right to enter and take
possession of the Premises at any time during a Default Period without notice or consent.

(b) The Lender may use the Premises only to hold, process, manufacture, sell, use, store,
liquidate, realize upon or otherwise dispose of items that are Collateral and for other purposes
that the Lender may in good faith deem to be related or incidental purposes.

(c) The Lender’s right to hold the Premises shall cease and terminate upon the earlier of
(i) payment in full and discharge of all Indebtedness and termination of the Credit Facility, and
(ii) final sale or disposition of all items constituting Collateral and delivery of all such items
to purchasers.

(d) The Lender shall not be obligated to pay or account for any rent or other compensation for
the possession, occupancy or use of any of the Premises; provided, however, that if the Lender does
pay or account for any rent or other compensation for the possession, occupancy or use of any of
the Premises, the Borrower shall reimburse the Lender promptly for the full amount thereof. In
addition, the Borrower will pay, or reimburse the Lender for, all taxes, fees, duties, imposts,
charges and expenses at any time incurred by or imposed upon the Lender by reason of the execution,
delivery, existence, recordation, performance or enforcement of this Agreement or the provisions of
this Section 3.4.

 

20

 

Section 3.5. Financing Statement. The Borrower authorizes the Lender to file from
time to time, such financing statements against collateral described as “all personal property” or
“all assets” or describing specific items of collateral including commercial tort claims as the
Lender deems necessary or useful to perfect the Security Interest. All financing statements
filed before the date hereof to perfect the Security Interest were authorized by the Borrower and
are hereby re-authorized. A carbon, photographic or other reproduction of this Agreement or of any
financing statements signed by the Borrower is sufficient as a financing statement and may be filed
as a financing statement in any state to perfect the security interests granted hereby. For this
purpose, the Borrower represents and warrants that the following information regarding the Debtor
is true and correct:

Name and address of Debtor:

Destron Fearing Corporation

490 Villaume Avenue

South St. Paul, MN 55075

Federal Employer Identification No. 52-123-3960

Organizational Identification No. 0927268

Name and address of Secured Party:

TCI Business Capital, Inc.

12270 Nicollet Avenue South

Burnsville, MN 55337

Section 3.6. Setoff. The Lender may at any time or from time to time, at its sole
discretion and without demand and without notice to anyone, setoff any liability owed to the
Borrower by the Lender, whether or not due, against any Indebtedness, whether or not due. In
addition, each other Person holding a participating interest in any Indebtedness shall have the
right to appropriate or setoff any deposit or other liability then owed by such Person to the
Borrower, whether or not due, and apply the same to the payment of said participating interest, as
fully as if such Person had lent directly to the Borrower the amount of such participating
interest.

Section 3.7. Collateral. This Agreement does not contemplate a sale of accounts,
contract rights or chattel paper, and, as provided by law, the Borrower is entitled to any surplus
and shall remain liable for any deficiency. The Lender’s duty of care with respect to Collateral
in its possession (as imposed by law) shall be deemed fulfilled if it exercises reasonable care in
physically keeping such Collateral, or in the case of Collateral in the custody or possession of a
bailee or other third Person, exercises reasonable care in the selection of the bailee or other
third Person, and the Lender need not otherwise preserve, protect, insure or care for any
Collateral. The Lender shall not be obligated to preserve any rights the Borrower may have against
prior parties, to realize on the Collateral at all or in any particular manner or order or to apply
any cash proceeds of the Collateral in any particular order of application. The Lender has no
obligation to clean-up or otherwise prepare the Collateral for sale. The Borrower waives any right
it may have to require the Lender to pursue any third Person for any of the Indebtedness.

ARTICLE 5.

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

The Borrower represents and warrants to the Lender as follows:

Section 5.1. Existence and Power; Name; Chief Executive Office; Inventory and Equipment
Locations; Federal Employer Identification Number and Organizational Identification Number.
The Borrower is a corporation, duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws
of the State of Delaware and is duly licensed or qualified to transact business in all
jurisdictions where the failure to obtain such license or qualification could reasonably be
expected to materially and adversely affect such party’s business or financial conditions. The
Borrower has all requisite power and authority to conduct its business, to own its properties and
to execute and deliver, and to perform all of its obligations under, the Loan Documents. To the
Borrower’s knowledge, during the past five years, the Borrower has done business solely under the
names set forth in Schedule 5.1. The Borrower’s chief executive office and principal place of
business is located at the address set forth in Schedule 5.1, and all of the Borrower’s records
relating to its business or the Collateral are kept at that location. All Inventory and Equipment
is located at that location or at one of the other locations listed in Schedule 5.1. The
Borrower’s federal employer identification number and organization identification number are
correctly set forth in Section 3.5.

Section 5.2. Capitalization. Schedule 5.2 constitutes a correct and complete list of
all ownership interests of the Borrower and each Guarantor and rights to acquire ownership
interests including the record holder, number of interests and percentage interests on a fully
diluted basis.

Section 5.3. Authorization of Borrowing; No Conflict as to Law or Agreements. The
execution, delivery and performance by the Borrower of the Loan Documents and the borrowings from
time to time hereunder have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action and do not and
will not (a) require any consent or approval of the Borrower’s Owners; (b) require any
authorization, consent or approval by, or registration, declaration or filing with, or notice to,
any governmental department, commission, board, bureau, agency or instrumentality, domestic or
foreign, or any third party, except such authorization, consent, approval, registration,
declaration, filing or notice as has been obtained, accomplished or given prior to the date hereof;
(c) violate in any material respect any provision of any law, rule or regulation (including
Regulation X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System) or violate any order, writ,
injunction or decree presently in effect having applicability to the Borrower or of the Borrower’s
Constituent Documents; (d) result in a material breach of or constitute a material default under
any indenture or loan or credit agreement of Borrower, any Applicable Agreement or any other
material agreement, lease or instrument to which the Borrower is a party or by which it or its
properties may be bound or affected; or (e) result in, or
require, the creation or imposition of any Lien (other than the Security Interest) upon or
with respect to any of the Collateral now owned or hereafter acquired by the Borrower.

 

24

 

Section 5.4. Legal Agreements. This Agreement constitutes and, upon due execution by
the Borrower, the other Loan Documents will constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of
the Borrower, enforceable against the Borrower in accordance with their respective terms subject to
applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, and other similar laws of general application limiting the
enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and the fact that equitable remedies, including specific
performance are discretionary and may not be ordered in respect to certain defaults.

Section 5.5. Subsidiaries. Except as set forth in Schedule 5.5 hereto, the Borrower
has no Subsidiaries.

Section 5.6. Financial Condition; No Adverse Change. The Borrower has furnished to
the Lender its reviewed financial statements for its fiscal year ended December 31, 2009, and its
internally prepared financial statements for the fiscal-year-to-date period ended May 31, 2010, and
those statements fairly present the financial condition of the Borrower on the dates thereof and
the results of its operations and cash flows for the periods then ended and were prepared in
accordance with GAAP (but without footnotes and, in the case of the interim statements, subject to
year-end adjustments). Since the date of the most recent financial statements, there has been no
change in the Borrower’s business, properties or condition (financial or otherwise) which would
have a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 5.7. Litigation. Except as disclosed on Schedule 5.7 hereto, there are no
actions, suits or proceedings pending or, to the Borrower’s knowledge, threatened in writing
against or affecting the Borrower or any Guarantor, or the properties of the Borrower or any
Guarantor before any court or governmental department, commission, board, bureau, agency or
instrumentality, domestic or foreign, which, if determined adversely to the Borrower or any
Guarantor, would have a Material Adverse Effect on the financial condition, properties or
operations of the Borrower or any Guarantor.

Section 5.8. Regulation U. The Borrower is not engaged in the business of extending
credit for the purpose of purchasing or carrying margin stock (within the meaning of Regulation U
of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System), and no part of the proceeds of any
Advance will be used to purchase or carry any margin stock or to extend credit to others for the
purpose of purchasing or carrying any margin stock.

Section 5.9. Taxes. Except as set forth on Schedule 5.9, the Borrower and the
Guarantors have paid or caused to be paid to the proper authorities when due all federal, state and
local taxes required to be withheld by each of them. The Borrower and each Guarantor has filed all
federal, state and local tax returns which to the knowledge of the Officers of the Borrower or such
Guarantor, as the case may be, are required to be filed, and the Borrower and each Guarantor has
paid or caused to be paid to the respective taxing authorities all taxes as shown on said returns
or on any assessment received by any of them to the extent such taxes have become due.

 

25

 

Section 5.10. Titles and Liens. The Borrower has good and absolute title to all
Collateral free and clear of all Liens other than Permitted Liens. No financing statement naming
the Borrower as debtor is on file in any office except to perfect only Permitted Liens.

any ERISA Affiliate (a) maintains or has maintained any Pension Plan, (b) contributes or has
contributed to any Multiemployer Plan or (c) provides or has provided post-retirement medical or
insurance benefits with respect to employees or former employees (other than benefits required

Borrower nor any ERISA Affiliate has received any notice or has any knowledge to the effect that it
is not in full compliance with any of the requirements of ERISA, the IRC or applicable state law
with respect to any Plan. No Reportable Event exists in connection with any Pension Plan. Each
Plan which is intended to qualify under the IRC is so qualified, and no fact or circumstance exists
which may have an adverse effect on the Plan’s tax-qualified status. Except as described on
Schedule 5.11, neither the Borrower nor any ERISA Affiliate has (i) any accumulated funding
deficiency (as defined in Section 302 of ERISA and Section 412 of the IRC) under any Plan, whether
or not waived, (ii) any liability under Section 4201 or 4243 of ERISA for any withdrawal, partial
withdrawal, reorganization or other event under any Multiemployer Plan or (iii) any liability or
knowledge of any facts or circumstances which could result in any liability to the Pension Benefit
Guaranty Corporation, the Internal Revenue Service, the Department of Labor or any participant in
connection with any Plan (other than routine claims for benefits under the Plan).

Section 5.12. Default. The Borrower and the Guarantors are in compliance with all
provisions of all agreements, instruments, decrees and orders to which it is a party or by which it
or its property is bound or affected, the breach or default of which could have a Material Adverse
Effect.

Section 5.13. Environmental Matters.

(a) Except as disclosed on Schedule 5.13, there are not present in, on or under the Premises
any Hazardous Substances in such form or quantity as to create any material liability or obligation
for either the Borrower, any Guarantor or the Lender under the common law of any jurisdiction or
under any Environmental Law, and no Hazardous Substances have ever been stored, buried, spilled,
leaked, discharged, emitted or released in, on or under the Premises in such a way as to create any
such material liability.

(b) Except as disclosed on Schedule 5.13, neither the Borrower nor any Guarantor has disposed
of Hazardous Substances in such a manner as to create any material liability under any
Environmental Law.

(c) Except as disclosed on Schedule 5.13, there have not existed in the past, nor are there
any threatened or impending requests, claims, notices, investigations, demands, administrative
proceedings, hearings or litigation relating in any way to the Premises or the Borrower or any
Guarantor, alleging material liability under, violation of, or noncompliance with any Environmental
Law or any license, permit or other authorization issued pursuant thereto.

 

26

 

(d) Except as disclosed on Schedule 5.13, the business of the Borrower and each Guarantor is
and has in the past always been conducted in accordance with all Environmental Laws and all
licenses, permits and other authorizations required pursuant to any Environmental Law and necessary
for the lawful and efficient operation of such businesses are in the Borrower’s possession and are
in full force and effect, nor has the Borrower nor any Guarantor been denied insurance on grounds
related to potential environmental liability. No permit required under any Environmental Law is
scheduled to expire within 12 months and there is no threat that any such permit will be withdrawn,
terminated, limited or materially changed.

(e) Except as disclosed on Schedule 5.13, the Premises are not and never have been listed on
the National Priorities List, the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability
Information System or any similar federal, state or local list, schedule, log, inventory or
database.

permits, licenses and other documents describing or relating in any way to the Premises or the
business of the Borrower or any Guarantor which are in the Borrower’s possession or of which the
Borrower has knowledge.

Section 5.14. Submissions to Lender. All financial and other information provided to
the Lender by or on behalf of the Borrower and the Guarantors in connection with the Borrower’s
request for the credit facilities contemplated hereby (a) is true and correct in all material
respects, (b) does not omit any material fact necessary to make such information not misleading
and, (c) as to projections, valuations or pro-forma financial statements, present a good faith
opinion as to such projections, valuations and pro-forma condition and results.

Section 5.15. Financing Statements. The Borrower has authorized the filing of
financing statements sufficient when filed to perfect the Security Interest and the other security
interests created by the Security Documents. When such financing statements are filed in the
offices noted therein, the Lender will have a valid and perfected security interest in all
Collateral that is capable of being perfected by filing financing statements. None of the
Collateral is or will become a fixture on real estate, unless a sufficient fixture filing is in
effect with respect thereto.

Section 5.16. Rights to Payment. Each right to payment and each instrument, document,
chattel paper and other agreement constituting or evidencing Collateral is (or, in the case of all
future Collateral, will be when arising or issued) the valid, genuine and legally enforceable
obligation, subject to no defense, setoff or counterclaim, of the account debtor or other obligor
named therein or in the Borrower’s records pertaining thereto as being obligated to pay such
obligation.

Section 5.17. Financial Solvency. Both before and after giving effect to the initial
Advance hereunder and all of the transactions contemplated in the Loan Documents, neither the
Borrower nor any Guarantor:

believes that it will, incur debts beyond its ability to pay them as they mature;

documents to which it is a party or by taking any action with respect thereto, intends to hinder,
delay or defraud either its present or future creditors; and

reorganization or similar proceeding under any law of any jurisdiction, nor, to the knowledge of
the Borrower, is the subject of any actual, pending or threatened bankruptcy, insolvency or similar
proceedings under any law of any jurisdiction.

covering the Collateral with insurers acceptable to the Lender, in such amounts, on such terms
(including any deductibles) and against such risks as may from time to time be reasonably required
by the Lender, but in all events in such amounts and against such risks as is usually carried by
companies engaged in similar business and owning similar properties in the same general areas in
which the Borrower operates. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Borrower will
at all times and keep all tangible Collateral insured against risks of fire (including so-called
extended coverage), theft and such other risks and in such amounts as the
Lender may reasonably request, with any loss payable to the Lender to the extent of its
interest, and all policies of such insurance shall contain a lender’s loss payable endorsement for
the Lender’s benefit.

 

34

 

Section 6.15. Preservation of Existence. The Borrower will preserve and maintain its
existence and all of its rights, privileges and franchises necessary or desirable in the normal
conduct of its business and shall conduct its business in an orderly, efficient and regular manner.

Section 6.16. Delivery of Instruments, etc. Upon request by the Lender, the Borrower
will promptly deliver to the Lender in pledge all instruments, documents and chattel paper
constituting Collateral, duly endorsed or assigned by the Borrower.

Section 6.17. Sale or Transfer of Assets; Suspension of Business Operations. Except
as set forth in Schedule 6.17, the Borrower will not sell, lease, assign, transfer or otherwise
dispose of (i) the stock of any Subsidiary, (ii) all or a substantial part of its assets, or
(iii) any Collateral or any interest therein (whether in one transaction or in a series of
transactions) to any other Person other than the sale of Inventory in the ordinary course of
business and will not liquidate, dissolve or suspend business operations.

Section 6.18. Consolidation and Merger; Asset Acquisitions. Except as set forth in
Schedule 6.18, the Borrower will not consolidate with or merge into any Person, or permit any other
Person to merge into it, or acquire (in a transaction analogous in purpose or effect to a
consolidation or merger) all or substantially all the assets of any other Person.

Section 6.19. Sale and Leaseback. The Borrower will not enter into any arrangement,
directly or indirectly, with any other Person whereby the Borrower shall sell or transfer any real
or personal property, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, and then or thereafter rent or lease
as lessee such property or any part thereof or any other property which the Borrower intends to use
for substantially the same purpose or purposes as the property being sold or transferred.

Section 6.20. Restrictions on Nature of Business. The Borrower will not engage in any
line of business materially different from that presently engaged in by the Borrower and will not
purchase, lease or otherwise acquire assets not related to its business.

Section 6.21. Accounting. The Borrower will not adopt any material change in
accounting principles other than as required by GAAP. The Borrower will not adopt, permit or
consent to any change in its fiscal year.

Section 6.22. Discounts, etc. The Borrower may grant any discount, credit or
allowance to any customer of the Borrower or accept any return of goods sold so long as such
discount, credit, allowance or return is made or accepted in the ordinary course of the Borrower’s
business and is substantially consistent with Borrower’s past practices. Without Lender’s consent,
the Borrower will not at any time modify, amend, subordinate, cancel or terminate the obligation of
any account debtor or other obligor of the Borrower.

 

35

 

Section 6.23. Plans. Except as set forth on Schedule 5.11, neither the Borrower nor
any ERISA Affiliate will (i) adopt, create, assume or become a party to any Pension Plan, (ii)
incur
any obligation to contribute to any Multiemployer Plan, (iii) incur any obligation to provide
post-retirement medical or insurance benefits with respect to employees or former employees (other
than benefits required by law) or (iv) amend any Plan in a manner that would materially increase
its funding obligations.

Section 6.24. Place of Business; Name. The Borrower will not transfer its chief
executive office or principal place of business, or move, relocate, close or sell any business
location. The Borrower will not permit any tangible Collateral or any records pertaining to the
Collateral to be located in any state or area in which, in the event of such location, a financing
statement covering such Collateral would be required to be, but has not in fact been, filed in
order to perfect the Security Interest. The Borrower will not change its name or jurisdiction of
organization.

Section 6.25. Constituent Documents. The Borrower will not amend its Constituent
Documents.

Section 6.26. Payments on and Changes to Subordinated Debt.

(including any principal, premium, interest, fee or charge) with respect to any Subordinated Debt
except, in each instance, regularly scheduled interest and principal payments to the extent, and in
the manner, expressly permitted by the Subordination Agreement or (ii) repurchase, redeem, defease,
acquire or reacquire for value any of the Subordinated Debt.

(b) Changes to Subordinated Debt Terms or Documents. The Borrower will not seek,
agree to or permit, directly or indirectly, the amendment, waiver or other change to (i) any of the
pricing or payment terms (including, principal, interest or premium provisions) of or applicable
to, or the provisions governing the priority of or security for the payment and performance of the
obligations under or applicable to, or acceleration, termination, or default provisions of or
applicable to, the Subordinated Debt or any of the instruments, agreements or other documents
evidencing or relating to the Subordinated Debt, or (ii) any other material term of or applicable
to any of such instruments, agreements or other documents. For purposes of this Section 6.26,
“material” means any modification, waiver, or amendment of the Subordinated Debt or any of such
instruments, agreements or other documents, which, in the judgment of the Lender exercised in a
commercially reasonable manner, could (1) adversely affect any of the Lender’s rights or remedies
under the Loan Documents, the value of the Loan Collateral, or the Lender’s security interest in or
other Lien on the Collateral (including the priority of the Lender’s interests) or (2) create or
result in an Event of Default.

 

36

 

Section 6.27. Performance by the Lender. If the Borrower at any time fails to perform
or observe any of the foregoing covenants contained in this Article VI or elsewhere herein, and if
such failure shall continue for a period of ten (10) calendar days after the Lender gives the
Borrower written notice thereof (or in the case of the agreements contained in Section 6.13 and
Section 6.15, immediately upon the occurrence of such failure, without notice or lapse of time),
the Lender may, but need not, perform or observe such covenant on behalf and in the name, place and
stead of the Borrower (or, at the Lender’s option, in the Lender’s name) and may, but need not,
take any and all other actions which the Lender may reasonably deem necessary to cure
or correct such failure (including the payment of taxes, the satisfaction of Liens, the
performance of obligations owed to account debtors or other obligors, the procurement and
maintenance of insurance, the execution of assignments, security agreements and financing
statements, and the endorsement of instruments); and the Borrower shall thereupon pay to the Lender
on demand the amount of all monies expended and all costs and expenses (including reasonable
attorneys’ fees and legal expenses) incurred by the Lender in connection with or as a result of the
performance or observance of such agreements or the taking of such action by the Lender, together
with interest thereon from the date expended or incurred at the Default Rate. To facilitate the
Lender’s performance or observance of such covenants of the Borrower, the Borrower hereby
irrevocably appoints the Lender, or the Lender’s delegate, acting alone, as the Borrower’s attorney
in fact (which appointment is coupled with an interest) with the right (but not the duty) from time
to time to create, prepare, complete, execute, deliver, endorse or file in the name and on behalf
of the Borrower any and all instruments, documents, assignments, security agreements, financing
statements, applications for insurance and other agreements required to be obtained, executed,
delivered or endorsed by the Borrower hereunder.

ARTICLE 7.

EVENTS OF DEFAULT, RIGHTS AND REMEDIES

Section 7.1. Events of Default. Notwithstanding that the Lender may demand immediate
payment of any Indebtedness at any time, whether or not a Default Period then exists, and without
waiving or limiting in any respect the Lender’s right to so demand payment of the Indebtedness at
any time, this Agreement sets forth a non-exclusive list of certain critical events after the
occurrence of which the Lender expects that it would demand immediate payment of the Indebtedness
and exercise its remedies. “Event of Default”, wherever used herein, means any one of the following
events:

(a) Default in the payment of the Revolving Note, any Obligation of Reimbursement, or any
default with respect to any other Indebtedness due from Borrower to Lender as such Indebtedness
becomes due and payable;

(b) Default in the performance, or breach, of any covenant or agreement of the Borrower
contained in this Agreement;

(c) Default in the performance, or breach, of any material covenant or agreement of the
Borrower contained in any of the Applicable Agreements, or the early termination or cancellation of
any of the Applicable Agreements;

(d) An Overadvance arises as the result of any reduction in the Borrowing Base, or arises in
any manner on terms not otherwise approved of in advance by the Lender in writing which Overadvance
has not been fully repaid by Borrower in cash within twenty-four (24) hours;

(e) Any ownership interest in the Borrower shall be sold, transferred, or become subject to a
Lien;

 

37

 

(f) The Borrower or any Guarantor shall be or become insolvent, or admit in writing its or his
inability to pay its or his debts as they mature, or make an assignment for the benefit of
creditors; or the Borrower or any Guarantor shall apply for or consent to the appointment of
any receiver, trustee, or similar officer for it or him or for all or any substantial part of its
or his property; or such receiver, trustee or similar officer shall be appointed without the
application or consent of the Borrower or such Guarantor, as the case may be; (which appointment
shall not be discharged within sixty (60) days after the date of appointment) or the Borrower or
any Guarantor shall institute (by petition, application, answer, consent or otherwise) any
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, arrangement, readjustment of debt, dissolution, liquidation
or similar proceeding relating to it or him under the laws of any jurisdiction; or any such
proceeding shall be instituted (by petition, application or otherwise) against the Borrower or any
such Guarantor (which proceeding, in the case of a proceeding instituted against the Borrower or
any such Guarantor shall not be discharged within sixty (60) days after the date of the
commencement of such proceeding); or any judgment, writ, warrant of attachment or execution or
similar process shall be issued or levied against a substantial part of the property of the
Borrower or any Guarantor;

(g) A petition shall be filed by or against the Borrower or any Guarantor under the United
States Bankruptcy Code or the laws of any other jurisdiction naming the Borrower or such Guarantor
as debtor which petition, in the case of a petition filed against the Borrower or any Guarantor,
shall not be discharged within sixty (60) days of the date of such petition;

(h) Any representation or warranty made by the Borrower in this Agreement, by any Guarantor in
any Guaranty delivered to the Lender, or by the Borrower (or any of its Officers) or any Guarantor
in any agreement, certificate, instrument or financial statement or other statement contemplated by
or made or delivered pursuant to or in connection with this Agreement or any such Guaranty shall be
incorrect in any material respect as of the date such representation or warranty is made;

(i) The rendering against the Borrower of an arbitration award, a final judgment, decree or
order for the payment of money in excess of $400,000 and the continuance of such arbitration award,
judgment, decree or order unsatisfied and in effect for any period of thirty (30) consecutive days
without a stay of execution;

(j) A default or an event of default under any bond, debenture, note or other evidence of
material indebtedness of the Borrower owed to any Person other than the Lender, or under any
indenture or other instrument under which any such evidence of indebtedness has been issued or by
which it is governed, or under any material lease or other contract, and the expiration of the
applicable period of grace, if any, specified in such evidence of indebtedness, indenture, other
instrument, lease or contract;

(k) Any Reportable Event, which the Lender determines in good faith might constitute grounds
for the termination of any Pension Plan or for the appointment by the appropriate United States
District Court of a trustee to administer any Pension Plan, shall have occurred and be continuing
thirty (30) days after written notice to such effect shall have been given to the Borrower by the
Lender; or a trustee shall have been appointed by an appropriate United States District Court to
administer any Pension Plan; or the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation shall have instituted
proceedings to terminate any Pension Plan or to appoint a trustee to administer any Pension Plan;
or the Borrower or any ERISA Affiliate shall have filed
for a distress termination of any Pension Plan under Title IV of ERISA; or the Borrower or any
ERISA Affiliate shall have failed to make any quarterly contribution required with respect to any
Pension Plan under Section 412(m) of the IRC, which the Lender determines in good faith may by
itself, or in combination with any such failures that the Lender may determine are likely to occur
in the future, result in the imposition of a Lien on the Borrower’s assets in favor of the Pension
Plan; or any withdrawal, partial withdrawal, reorganization or other event occurs with respect to a
Multiemployer Plan which results or could reasonably be expected to result in a material liability
of the Borrower to the Multiemployer Plan under Title IV of ERISA;

 

38

 

(l) An event of default shall occur under any Security Document and shall not be cured prior
to the expiration of any applicable period of grace;

(m) Default in the payment of any amount owed by the Borrower to the Lender other than any
Indebtedness arising hereunder and shall not be cured prior to the expiration of any applicable
period of grace;

(n) Any Guarantor shall repudiate, purport to revoke or fail to perform any obligation under
such Guaranty, any Guarantor that is a natural person shall die or any other Guarantor shall cease
to exist;

(o) Any party to any Subordination Agreement engages in any act prohibited by the
Subordination Agreement to which they are a party;

(p) The Lender believes in good faith that the prospect of payment in full of any part of the
Indebtedness, or that full performance by the Borrower under the Loan Documents is impaired, or
that there has occurred any change in the business or financial condition of the Borrower which
would have a Material Adverse Effect;

(q) There has occurred any breach, default or event of default by or attributable to, the
Borrower or any Guarantor under any agreement between the Borrower or such Guarantor (as
applicable) and the Lender;

(r) The indictment of any Director, Officer, Guarantor, or any Owner of any issued and
outstanding common stock of the Borrower for a felony offense under state or federal law; or

(s) Jason Prescott or any Approved Successor (defined below) shall cease, for any reason, to
serve as chief financial officer of the Borrower. For purposes of the foregoing, an “Approved
Successor” is the chief financial officer of the Borrower elected by the board of directors of the
Borrower not more than thirty (30) days after Jason Prescott or an earlier Approved Successor
ceases to serve as chief financial officer of the Borrower and who is reasonably acceptable to the
Lender.

Section 7.2. Rights and Remedies. As provided in Section 2.9, the Lender may, at any
time, refuse to make any requested Advance, demand payment of the Advances or terminate the Credit
Facility, whether or not a Default Period then exists. In addition, during any Default Period, the
Lender may exercise any or all of the following rights and remedies:

(a) The Lender may, by notice to the Borrower, declare the Indebtedness to be forthwith due
and payable, whereupon all Indebtedness shall become and be forthwith due and payable, without
presentment, notice of dishonor, protest or further notice of any kind, all of which the Borrower
hereby expressly waives;

 

39

 

(b) The Lender may, without notice to the Borrower and without further action, apply any and
all money owing by the Lender to the Borrower to the payment of the Indebtedness;

(c) The Lender may exercise and enforce any and all rights and remedies available upon default
to a secured party under the UCC, including the right to take possession of Collateral, or any
evidence thereof, proceeding without judicial process or by judicial process (without a prior
hearing or notice thereof, which the Borrower hereby expressly waives) and the right to sell, lease
or otherwise dispose of any or all of the Collateral (with or without giving any warranties as to
the Collateral, title to the Collateral or similar warranties), and, in connection therewith, the
Borrower will on demand assemble the Collateral and make it available to the Lender at a place to
be designated by the Lender which is reasonably convenient to both parties;

(d) The Lender may make demand upon the Borrower and, forthwith upon such demand, the Borrower
will pay to the Lender in immediately available funds for deposit in the Special Account pursuant
to Section 2.4 an amount equal to the aggregate maximum amount available to be drawn under all
Letters of Credit then outstanding, assuming compliance with all conditions for drawing thereunder;

(e) The Lender may exercise and enforce its rights and remedies under the Loan Documents;

(f) The Lender may without regard to any waste, adequacy of the security or solvency of the
Borrower, apply for the appointment of a receiver of the Collateral, to which appointment the
Borrower hereby consents, whether or not foreclosure proceedings have been commenced under the
Security Documents and whether or not a foreclosure sale has occurred; and

(g) The Lender may exercise any other rights and remedies available to it by law or agreement.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default described in Section
7.1(f) or (g), the Indebtedness shall be immediately due and payable automatically without
presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind. If the Lender sells any of the Collateral on
credit, the Indebtedness will be reduced only to the extent of payments actually received. If the
purchaser fails to pay for the Collateral, the Lender may resell the Collateral and shall apply any
proceeds actually received to the Indebtedness.

Section 7.3. Certain Notices. If notice to the Borrower of any intended disposition
of Collateral or any other intended action is required by law in a particular instance, such notice
shall be deemed commercially reasonable if given (in the manner specified in Section 8.3) at least
ten (10) calendar days before the date of intended disposition or other action.

 

40

 

ARTICLE 8.

MISCELLANEOUS

Section 8.1. No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies; Compliance with Laws. No failure or
delay by the Lender in exercising any right, power or remedy under the Loan Documents shall operate
as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or remedy
preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy
under the Loan Documents. The remedies provided in the Loan Documents are cumulative and not
exclusive of any remedies provided by law. The Lender may comply with any applicable state or
federal law requirements in connection with a disposition of the Collateral and such compliance
will not be considered adversely to affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale of the
Collateral.

Section 8.2. Amendments, Etc. No amendment, modification, termination or waiver of
any provision of any Loan Document or consent to any departure by the Borrower therefrom or any
release of a Security Interest shall be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by
the Lender, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and
for the specific purpose for which given. No notice to or demand on the Borrower in any case shall
entitle the Borrower to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.

Section 8.3. Notices; Communication of Confidential Information; Requests for
Accounting. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all notices, requests, demands and
other communications provided for under the Loan Documents shall be in writing and shall be
(a) personally delivered, (b) sent by first class United States mail, (c) sent by overnight courier
of national reputation, (d) transmitted by telecopy, or (e) sent as electronic mail, in each case
delivered or sent to the party to whom notice is being given to the business address, telecopier
number, or e-mail address set forth below next to its signature or, as to each party, at such other
business address, telecopier number, or e-mail address as it may hereafter designate in writing to
the other party pursuant to the terms of this Section. All such notices, requests, demands and
other communications shall be deemed to be an authenticated record communicated or given on (w) the
date received if personally delivered, (x) when deposited in the mail if delivered by mail, (y) the
date delivered to the courier if delivered by overnight courier, or (z) the date of transmission if
sent by telecopy or by e-mail, except that notices or requests delivered to the Lender pursuant to
any of the provisions of Article II shall not be effective until received by the Lender. All
notices, financial information, or other business records sent by either party to this Agreement
may be transmitted, sent, or otherwise communicated via such medium as the sending party may deem
appropriate and commercially reasonable; provided, however, that the risk that the
confidentiality or privacy of such notices, financial information, or other business records sent
by either party may be compromised shall be borne exclusively by the Borrower. All requests for an
accounting under Section 9-210 of the UCC (i) shall be made in a writing signed by a Person
authorized under Section 2.2(b), (ii) shall be personally delivered, sent by registered or
certified mail, return receipt requested, or by overnight courier of national reputation,
(iii) shall be deemed to be sent when received by the Lender and (iv) shall otherwise comply with
the requirements of Section 9-210 of the UCC. The Borrower requests that the Lender respond to all
such requests which on their face appear to come from an authorized
individual and releases the Lender from any liability for so responding. The Borrower shall
pay the Lender the maximum amount allowed by law for responding to such requests.

 

41

 

Section 8.4. Further Documents. The Borrower will from time to time execute, deliver,
endorse and authorize the filing of any and all instruments, documents, conveyances, assignments,
security agreements, financing statements, control agreements and other agreements and writings
that the Lender may reasonably request in order to secure, protect, perfect or enforce the Security
Interest or the Lender’s rights under the Loan Documents (but any failure to request or assure that
the Borrower executes, delivers, endorses or authorizes the filing of any such item shall not
affect or impair the validity, sufficiency or enforceability of the Loan Documents and the Security
Interest, regardless of whether any such item was or was not executed, delivered or endorsed in a
similar context or on a prior occasion).

Section 8.5. Costs and Expenses. The Borrower shall pay on demand all costs and
expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred by the Lender in connection with the
Indebtedness, this Agreement, the Loan Documents, any Letter of Credit and any other document or
agreement related hereto or thereto, and the transactions contemplated hereby, including all such
costs, expenses and fees incurred in connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution,
amendment, administration, performance, collection and enforcement of the Indebtedness and all such
documents and agreements and the creation, perfection, protection, satisfaction, foreclosure or
enforcement of the Security Interest.

Section 8.6. Indemnity. In addition to the payment of expenses pursuant to Section
8.5, the Borrower shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Lender, and any of its
participants, parent corporations, subsidiary corporations, affiliated corporations, successor
corporations, and all present and future officers, directors, employees, attorneys and agents of
the foregoing (the “Indemnitees”) from and against any of the following (collectively, “Indemnified
Liabilities”):

(a) Any and all transfer taxes, documentary taxes, assessments or charges made by any
Governmental Authority by reason of the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents or the making
of the Advances;

(b) Any claims, loss or damage to which any Indemnitee may be subjected if any representation
or warranty contained in Section 5.13 proves to be incorrect in any respect or as a result of any
violation of the covenant contained in Section 6.11(b); and

(c) Any and all other liabilities, losses, damages, penalties, judgments, suits, claims, costs
and expenses of any kind or nature whatsoever (including the reasonable fees and disbursements of
counsel) in connection with the foregoing and any other investigative, administrative or judicial
proceedings, whether or not such Indemnitee shall be designated a party thereto, which may be
imposed on, incurred by or asserted against any such Indemnitee, in any manner related to or
arising out of or in connection with the making of the Advances and the Loan Documents or the use
or intended use of the proceeds of the Advances. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower shall
not be obligated to indemnify any Indemnitee for any Indemnified Liability caused by the gross
negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee.

 

42

 

If any investigative, judicial or administrative proceeding arising from any of the foregoing is
brought against any Indemnitee, upon such Indemnitee’s request, the Borrower, or counsel designated
by the Borrower and satisfactory to the Indemnitee, will resist and defend such action, suit or
proceeding to the extent and in the manner directed by the Indemnitee, at the Borrower’s sole costs
and expense. Each Indemnitee will use its best efforts to cooperate in the defense of any such
action, suit or proceeding. If the foregoing undertaking to indemnify, defend and hold harmless
may be held to be unenforceable because it violates any law or public policy, the Borrower shall
nevertheless make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the
Indemnified Liabilities which is permissible under applicable law. The Borrower’s obligation under
this Section 8.6 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the discharge of the
Borrower’s other obligations hereunder.

Section 8.7. Participants. The Lender and its participants, if any, are not partners
or joint venturers, and the Lender shall not have any liability or responsibility for any
obligation, act or omission of any of its participants. All rights and powers specifically
conferred upon the Lender may be transferred or delegated to any of the Lender’s participants,
successors or assigns.

Section 8.8. Execution in Counterparts; Facsimile Execution. This Agreement and other
Loan Documents may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed and
delivered shall be deemed to be an original and all of which counterparts, taken together, shall
constitute but one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed counterpart of this Agreement
or any other Loan Document by facsimile or other digital means shall be equally as effective as
delivery of an original executed counterpart of this Agreement or such other Loan Document. Any
party delivering an executed counterpart of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by facsimile
or other digital means also shall deliver an original executed counterpart of this Agreement or
such other Loan Document but the failure to deliver an original executed counterpart shall not
affect the validity, enforceability, and binding effect of this Agreement or such other Loan
Document.

Section 8.9. Retention of Borrower’s Records. The Lender shall have no obligation to
maintain any electronic records or any documents, schedules, invoices, agings, or other papers
delivered to the Lender by the Borrower or in connection with the Loan Documents for more than
thirty (30) days after receipt by the Lender. If there is a special need to retain specific
records, the Borrower must inform the Lender of its need to retain those records with
particularity, which must be delivered in accordance with the notice provisions of Section 8.3
within thirty (30) days of the Lender taking control of same.

Section 8.10. Binding Effect; Assignment; Complete Agreement; Sharing Information.
The Loan Documents shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrower and the Lender
and their respective successors and assigns, except that the Borrower shall not have the right to
assign its rights thereunder or any interest therein without the Lender’s prior written consent.
To the extent permitted by law, the Borrower waives and will not assert against any assignee any
claims, defenses or set-offs that the Borrower could assert against the Lender. This Agreement
shall also bind all Persons who become a party to this Agreement as a borrower. This Agreement,
together with the Loan Documents, comprises the complete and integrated agreement of the parties on
the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements, written or oral, on the subject
matter hereof. To the extent that any provision of this Agreement
contradicts other provisions of the Loan Documents, this Agreement shall control. Without
limiting the Lender’s right to share information regarding the Borrower and the Guarantors with the
Lender’s participants, accountants, lawyers and other advisors, the Lender and each direct and
indirect subsidiary of the Lender may share with each other any information that they may have in
their possession regarding the Borrower and the Guarantors, and the Borrower waives any right of
confidentiality it may have with respect to all such sharing of information.

 

43

 

Section 8.11. Severability of Provisions. Any provision of this Agreement which is
prohibited or unenforceable shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or
unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof.

Section 8.12. Headings. Article, Section and subsection headings in this Agreement
are included herein for convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a part of this
Agreement for any other purpose.

Section 8.13. Governing Law; Jurisdiction, Venue; Waiver of Jury Trial. The Loan
Documents shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the substantive laws (other than
conflict laws) of the State of Minnesota. The parties hereto hereby (a) consent to the personal
jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in the State of Minnesota in connection with
any controversy related to this Agreement; (b) waive any argument that venue in any such forum is
not convenient; (c) agree that any litigation initiated by the Lender or the Borrower in connection
with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents may be venued in either the state or federal courts
located in Hennepin County, Minnesota; and (d) agree that a final judgment in any such suit, action
or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the
judgment or in any other manner provided by law.

THE BORROWER AND THE LENDER WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION AT LAW OR IN EQUITY OR
IN ANY OTHER PROCEEDING BASED ON OR PERTAINING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT.
