charged for the actual number of days elapsed. The date of funding of an Advance shall be included in the calculation of interest. The date of payment with respect to an Advance shall be excluded from the calculation of interest. 

(b) After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default hereunder, the per annum effective rate of interest on all
outstanding principal under the Loans shall be equal to the applicable Interest Rate plus five hundred (500) basis points (the “Default 

  
 23 

 
Rate”). All such increases may be applied retroactively to the date of the occurrence of the Event of Default. Borrower agrees that the Default Rate is a reasonable estimate of
Lender’s damages and is not a penalty. 
 (c) All contractual rates of interest chargeable on outstanding principal under the Loans
shall continue to accrue and be paid even after Default, an Event of Default, maturity, acceleration, judgment, bankruptcy, insolvency proceedings of any kind or the happening of any event or occurrence similar or dissimilar. 

(d) In no contingency or event whatsoever shall the aggregate of all amounts deemed interest hereunder and charged or collected pursuant to
the terms of this Agreement exceed the highest rate permissible under any Law which a court of competent jurisdiction shall, in a final determination, deem applicable hereto. In the event that such court determines Lender has charged or received
interest hereunder in excess of the highest applicable rate, Lender shall apply, in its sole discretion, and set off such excess interest received by Lender against other Obligations due or to become due and such rate shall automatically be reduced
to the maximum rate permitted by such Law. 
 2.7 Fees and Charges. 

(a) On the Closing Date, Borrower shall pay to Lender, a fully-earned, non-refundable up-front fee (the “Upfront Fee”) in the
amount of $225,000. 
 (b) On June 16, 2011 and on each anniversary of such date, a fully-earned, non-refundable administrative fee
(the “Administrative Fee”) in the amount of $12,000. 
 (c) From and following the Closing Date, Borrower shall pay Lender
fees in an amount equal to (i) the difference between (A) the Maximum Commitment less (B) the sum of the average daily outstanding balance of Advances—Guaranteed Loans plus the average daily
outstanding balance of Advances—Non-Guaranteed Loans during the preceding month, multiplied by (ii) one-quarter of one percent (1/4 of 1%) per annum. Such fees are to be paid quarterly in arrears on the last day of each
calendar quarter. 
 (d) Borrower shall unconditionally pay to Lender a late charge equal to five percent (5%) of any and all payments
of principal or interest on the Loans that are not paid within fifteen (15) days of the due date. Such late charge shall be due and payable regardless of whether Lender has accelerated the Obligations, or the Obligations automatically shall
become due and payable. Borrower agrees that any late fee payable to Lender is a reasonable estimate of Lender’s damages and is not a penalty. 

2.8 Use of Proceeds. The proceeds of (a) Advances—Guaranteed Loans shall be used solely to provide Borrower with short-term
financing of an amount not to exceed 90%, with respect to Financed Guaranteed Loans, and (b) Advances—Non-Guaranteed Loans shall be used solely to provide Borrower with short-term financing of an amount not to exceed 55% of the SBA 7(a)
Non-Guaranteed Note Receivable in respect of each Financed Non-Guaranteed Loan. 

  
 24 

 2.9 Requirements of Law. 

(a) If Lender shall have determined that the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law regarding capital adequacy or in the
interpretation or application thereof or compliance by Lender or any corporation controlling Lender with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority made subsequent to
the date hereof shall have the effect of reducing the rate of return on Lender’s or such corporation’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder to a level below that which Lender or such corporation could have achieved but for
such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration Lender’s or such corporation’s policies with respect to capital adequacy as in effect as of the date of this Agreement) by an amount deemed by Lender to be material, then from
time to time, after submission by Lender to Borrower of a written request therefor, Borrower shall pay to Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate Lender or such corporation for such reduction; provided, that Borrower shall
not be required to compensate Lender pursuant to this paragraph for any amounts incurred more than six months prior to the date that Lender notifies Borrower of Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor; and provided,
further that, if the circumstances giving rise to such claim have a retroactive effect, then such six-month period shall be extended to include the period of such retroactive effect. 

(b) A certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section submitted by Lender to Borrower shall be conclusive in the
absence of manifest error. The obligations of Borrower pursuant to this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder. 

(c) Failure or delay on the part of Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 2.9 shall not constitute a waiver of
Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided, that Borrower shall not be under any obligation to compensate Lender under clause (a) of this Section 2.9 for increased costs or reductions with respect to any period prior
to the date that is 180 days prior to such request if Lender knew or could reasonably have been expected to know of the circumstances giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of the fact that such circumstances would result in a claim
for increased compensation by reason of such increased costs or reductions; provided, further, that the foregoing limitation shall not apply to any increased costs or reductions arising out of the retroactive application of any change in Law
within such 180-day period. The protection of this Section 2.9 shall be available to Lender regardless of any possible contention of the invalidity or inapplicability of the change in any Requirement of Law that shall have occurred or been
imposed. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, and all requests, rules, guidelines and directives promulgated thereunder, all requests, rules, guidelines or directives
promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III, are in each case deemed to
have been introduced or adopted after the date hereof, regardless of the date enacted, adopted, issued or implemented for all purposes under or in connection with this Agreement (including this Section 2.9) and any taxes imposed thereby (other
than taxes described in Section 2.10) shall be deemed to be the adoption of or a change in a Requirement of Law regarding capital adequacy. 

  
 25 

 2.10 Taxes. 

(a) All payments made by Borrower under this Agreement shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account
of, any present or future income, stamp or other taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions or withholdings, now or hereafter imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any Governmental Authority, excluding net income taxes
and franchise taxes (imposed in lieu of net income taxes) imposed on Lender as a result of a present or former connection between Lender and the jurisdiction of the Governmental Authority imposing such tax or any political subdivision or taxing
authority thereof or therein (other than any such connection arising solely from Lender’s having executed, delivered or performed its obligations or received a payment under, or enforced, this Agreement or any other Loan Document). If any such
non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions or withholdings (“Non-Excluded Taxes”) or any Other Taxes are required to be withheld from any amounts payable to Lender hereunder, the amounts so payable to
Lender shall be increased to the extent necessary to yield to Lender (after payment of all Non-Excluded Taxes and Other Taxes) interest or any such other amounts payable hereunder at the rates or in the amounts specified in this Agreement;
provided, however, that Borrower shall not be required to increase any such amounts payable to Lender with respect to any Non-Excluded Taxes (i) that are attributable to Lender’s failure to deliver the forms required by
paragraph (d) of this Section, unless such failure is solely a result of a change in Law occurring after the date hereof or (ii) that are United States withholding taxes (including FATCA) imposed on amounts payable to Lender at the time
Lender becomes a party to this Agreement, except to the extent that Lender’s assignor (if any) was entitled, at the time of assignment, to receive additional amounts from Borrower with respect to such Non-Excluded Taxes pursuant to this
paragraph (a). 
 (b) In addition, Borrower shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable
law. 
 (i) Whenever any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes are payable by Borrower, as promptly as possible thereafter Borrower shall send
to Lender a certified copy of an original official receipt received by Borrower showing payment thereof. If Borrower fails to pay any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes when due to the appropriate taxing authority or fails to remit to Lender the
required receipts or other required documentary evidence, Borrower shall indemnify Lender for any incremental taxes, interest or penalties that may become payable by Lender as a result of any such failure. The agreements in this Section shall
survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder. 
 (ii) Unless otherwise
excluded under the proviso in Section 2.10(a), Borrower agrees to indemnify Lender for, and hold Lender harmless against, (1) the full amount of Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes (including any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or
asserted by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 2.10) paid by Lender and (2) any liability (including additions to tax, penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, in each case whether or
not such Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. The indemnification payment under this Section 2.10(c) shall be made within thirty (30) days after the date
Lender makes a written demand therefor. 

  
 26 

 (iii) If requested by Borrower, Lender shall deliver to Borrower two copies of U.S. Internal
Revenue Service Form W-9, certifying that Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax. Such forms shall be delivered on or before the date Lender becomes a party to this Agreement. In addition, if requested by Borrower, Lender shall
deliver such forms promptly upon the obsolescence or invalidity of any form previously delivered by Lender. Lender shall promptly notify Borrower at any time it determines that it is no longer in a position to provide any previously delivered
certificate to Borrower (or any other form of certification adopted by the U.S. taxing authorities for such purpose). 
 (iv) If Lender
reasonably determines that it has received a refund of any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by Borrower or with respect to which Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.10, it shall
pay over such refund to Borrower (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by Borrower under this Section 2.10 with respect to the Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all
out-of-pocket expenses of Lender and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided, that Borrower, upon the request of Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over
to Borrower (plus, any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to Lender in the event Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This paragraph shall not be construed
to require Lender to claim any tax refund or make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes which it deems confidential) or disclose any information relating to its tax affairs or any computations in respect thereof
or require Lender to do anything that would prejudice its ability to benefit from any other refunds, credits, reliefs, remissions or repayments to which it may be entitled.

causes or could cause a Material Adverse Effect. Borrower shall timely satisfy all assessments, fines, costs and penalties imposed (after exhaustion of all appeals, provided a stay has been put in effect during such appeal) by any Governmental
Authority against Borrower or any Property of Borrower. Without limiting the foregoing, Borrower shall cause the Required Procedures, the SBA 7(a) Note Receivable Documents and all actions and transactions by Borrower in

  
 39 

 
connection therewith (a) to comply with SBA Rules and Regulations, and (b) to comply with all other requirements of all applicable Laws except where the failure to comply with such

materially different from the businesses conducted by Borrower immediately prior to the Closing Date.

(a) In addition to all other rights, options and remedies granted or available to Lender under this Agreement or the Loan Documents (each of
which is also then exercisable by Lender), or otherwise available at Law or in equity, upon or at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default Lender may, in its discretion, cease making Advances hereunder,
terminate the Loan and declare the Obligations immediately due and payable, all without demand, notice, presentment or protest or further action of any kind (it also being understood that the occurrence of any of the events or conditions set forth
in Sections 8.1(k),(l) or (m) shall automatically cause an acceleration of the Obligations). 
 (b) In addition to all other rights,
options and remedies granted or available to Lender under this Agreement or the Loan Documents (each of which is also then exercisable by Lender), or otherwise available at Law or in equity, upon or at any time after the acceleration of the
Obligations following the occurrence of an Event of Default (other than the rights with respect to clause (iv) below which Lender may exercise at any time after an Event of Default and regardless of whether there is an acceleration), Lender
may, in its discretion, exercise all rights under the UCC and any other applicable Law or in equity, and under all Loan Documents permitted to be exercised after the occurrence of an Event of Default, including the following rights and remedies
(which list is given by way of example and is not intended to be an exhaustive list of all such rights and remedies): 
 (i) the right to
take possession of, send notices regarding and collect directly the Collateral, with or without judicial process (including without limitation the right to notify the United States postal authorities to redirect mail addressed to Borrower to an
address designated by Lender); or 
 (ii) by its own means or with judicial assistance, enter Borrower’s premises and take possession
of the Collateral, or render it unusable, or dispose of the Collateral on such premises in compliance with subsection (e) below, without any liability for rent, storage, utilities or other sums, and Borrower shall not resist or interfere with
such action; or 
 (iii) require Borrower at Borrower’s expense to assemble all or any part of the Collateral (other than real estate
or fixtures) and make it available to Lender at any place designated by Lender; or 

  
 54 

 (iv) take additional reserves against the Borrowing Base; or 

(v) the right to enjoin any violation of Section 7.1, it being agreed that Lender’s remedies at Law are inadequate. 

(c) Borrower hereby agrees that a notice received by it at least seven (7) days before the time of any intended public sale or of the
time after which any private sale or other disposition of the Collateral is to be made, shall be deemed to be reasonable notice of such sale or other disposition. If permitted by applicable Law, any perishable inventory or Collateral which threatens
to speedily decline in value or which is sold on a recognized market may be sold immediately by Lender without prior notice to Borrower. Borrower covenants and agrees not to interfere with or impose any obstacle to Lender’s exercise of its
rights and remedies with respect to the Collateral, after the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder. Lender shall have no obligation to clean up or prepare the Collateral for sale. If Lender sells any of the Collateral upon credit, Borrower
will only be credited with payments actually made by the purchaser thereof, that are received by Lender. Lender may, in connection with any sale of the Collateral specifically disclaim any warranties of title or the like. 

8.4 Nature of Remedies. All rights and remedies granted Lender hereunder and under the Loan Documents, or otherwise available at Law or
in equity, shall be deemed concurrent and cumulative, and not alternative remedies, and Lender may proceed with any number of remedies at the same time until all Obligations are satisfied in full. The exercise of any one right or remedy shall not be
deemed a waiver or release of any other right or remedy, and Lender, upon or at any time after the occurrence of an Event of Default, may proceed against Borrower, at any time, under any agreement, with any available remedy and in any order. 

8.5 Set-Off. If any bank account of Borrower with Lender or any participant is attached or
otherwise liened or levied upon by any third party, Lender (and such participant) shall have and be deemed to have, without notice to Borrower, the immediate right of set-off and may apply the funds or amount thus set-off against any of
Borrower’s Obligations hereunder. 
 8.6 Limitation on Remedies. 

(a) Notwithstanding, anything else to the contrary contained herein, with respect to an Event of Default under Section 6.7 hereof, Lender
agrees that it shall not be entitled to exercise its rights under Section 8.3(a) or 8.3(b), provided, that Lender is expressly permitted to take additional Reserves against Availability, or to impose the Default Rate on the Loan. The foregoing
limitation shall not apply if there shall have occurred any other Event of Default hereunder in which case Lender’s right of action shall not be impaired. Furthermore during such Event of Default nothing shall be deemed to limit Lender’s
right to pursue any action against any Guarantor. 
 (b) Notwithstanding any provision of Section 8.3(a) and (b), any exercise of the
rights and remedies of Lender solely as it relates to the Loans and Borrower under Section 8.3(a) and (b) may be subject to the provisions of the Multi-Party Agreement.

 SECTION IX. MISCELLANEOUS 

9.1 Governing Law. THIS AGREEMENT, AND ALL RELATED AGREEMENTS AND DOCUMENTS, SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAW (OTHER THAN SECTION 5-1401 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW). THE PROVISIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT AND ALL OTHER AGREEMENTS AND DOCUMENTS
REFERRED TO HEREIN ARE TO BE DEEMED SEVERABLE, AND THE INVALIDITY OR UNENFORCEABILITY OF ANY PROVISION SHALL NOT AFFECT OR IMPAIR THE REMAINING PROVISIONS WHICH SHALL CONTINUE IN FULL FORCE AND EFFECT. 

9.2 Integrated Agreement. The Notes, the other Loan Documents, all related agreements, and this Agreement shall be construed as
integrated and complementary of each other, and as augmenting and not restricting Lender’s rights and remedies. If, after applying the foregoing, an inconsistency still exists, the provisions of this Agreement shall constitute an amendment
thereto and shall control. 
 9.3 Waiver. No omission or delay by Lender in exercising any right or power under this Agreement or any
related agreements and documents will impair such right or power or be construed to be a waiver of any Default, or Event of Default or an acquiescence therein, and any single or partial exercise of any such right or power will not preclude other or
further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, and as to Borrower no waiver will be valid unless in writing and signed by Lender and then only to the extent specified. 

9.4 Indemnity. 
 (a)
Borrower releases and shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Lender and its respective officers, employees and agents, of and from any claims, demands, liabilities, obligations, judgments, injuries, losses, damages and costs and expenses
(including, without limitation, reasonable legal fees) resulting from (i) acts or conduct of Borrower under, pursuant or related to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, (ii) Borrower’s breach or violation of any
representation, warranty, covenant or undertaking contained in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, (iii) Borrower’s failure to comply with any or all Laws, statutes, ordinances, governmental rules, regulations or standards, whether
federal, state or local, or court or administrative orders or decrees, (including without limitation Environmental Laws, etc.), and (iv) any claim by any other creditor of Borrower against Lender arising out of any transaction whether hereunder
or in any way related to the Loan Documents and all costs, expenses, fines, penalties or other damages resulting there from, unless resulting solely from acts or conduct of Lender constituting willful misconduct or gross negligence. 

(b) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under subsection (a) above of notice of the commencement of any action by a third
party, such indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under such subsection, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof. The omission so to notify the indemnifying
party shall relieve the indemnifying party from any liability which it may have to any indemnified party under such subsection only if the indemnifying party is 

  
 56 

 
unable to defend such actions as a result of such failure to so notify. In case any such action shall be brought against any indemnified party and it shall notify the indemnifying party of the
commencement thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it shall wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel satisfactory to
such indemnified party (who shall not, except with the consent of the indemnified party, be counsel to the indemnified party), and, after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof,
the indemnifying party shall not be liable to such indemnified party under such subsection for any legal expenses of other counsel or any other expenses, in each case subsequently incurred by such indemnified party, in connection with the defense
thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation. 
 9.5 Time. Whenever Borrower shall be required to make any payment, or
perform any act, on a day which is not a Business Day, such payment may be made, or such act may be performed, on the next succeeding Business Day. Time is of the essence in Borrower’s performance under all provisions of this Agreement and all
related agreements and documents.

with the covenants set forth in Sections 5 and 6 of the Parent Credit Agreement and Sections 5 and 6 of the Parent Guarantee and Security Agreement (regardless of whether any such agreement may be terminated or of no force or effect prior to the

warrants that as of the date of its execution of this letter agreement, there are no claims or offsets against, or rights of recoupment with respect to, or defenses or counterclaims to its obligations under, the Loan Documents, and, in accordance
therewith, the Guarantor hereby waives any and all such claims, offsets, rights of recoupment, defenses or counterclaims, whether known or unknown, arising prior to the date of this letter agreement, and releases and discharges the Lender and its
officers, directors, employees, agents, stockholders, affiliates and attorneys (collectively, the “Released Parties”) from any and all obligations, indebtedness, liabilities, claims, rights, causes of action or demands whatsoever,
whether known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, in law or equity, which the Guarantor ever had or now has against the Released Parties, or any of them, arising prior to the date hereof and from, arising out of, or relating to Loan Documents and
the transactions contemplated thereby. 
 (b) Effect on the Loan Documents. Except as amended hereby, the Guaranty and the Security
Agreement each shall remain in full force and effect in accordance with its terms, and is hereby ratified, confirmed and reapproved as of the date hereof and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Guarantor hereby ratifies and
reaffirms all of its payment, performance and other obligations, contingent or otherwise, under the Guaranty and all of its obligations, contingent or otherwise, in the Security Agreement, ratifies, confirms and approves its prior assignments and
grants of all liens and security interests in and to its properties and assets under the Security Agreement and otherwise, and acknowledges and agrees that each of the Guaranty and the Security Agreement remains in full force and effect and is
hereby ratified, confirmed and reapproved as of the date hereof in accordance with their respective terms. The execution, delivery and effectiveness of this letter agreement shall not operate as a waiver of any right, power or remedy of the Lender,
or any Default or Event of Default under the Loan Documents, nor constitute a consent to or waiver of any departure from or non-compliance with any provision of the Loan Documents. This letter agreement shall be deemed to be a Loan Document under
the Loan Documents. Any breach or default in, or any non-compliance with, any of the terms and conditions of this letter agreement by the Guarantor shall constitute an Event of Default under the Loan Documents without notice or lapse of time or
both, and the Lender shall thereafter have the right to exercise all of its rights and remedies thereunder or under applicable law.
