 THIS SUBSIDIARY SECURITY AGREEMENT (the “Security
Agreement”) is made and entered into as of December 1, 2006, by EXPRESS CHECK ADVANCE OF SOUTH CAROLINA, LLC, a Tennessee limited liability company (“Grantor”) for the benefit of U.S. BANK NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, a
national banking association, as agent (the “Agent”) for each of the lenders (the “Banks”) now or hereafter party to the Credit Agreement (as defined below). All capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein or pursuant
to Section 1 hereof shall have the respective meanings assigned thereto in the Credit Agreement (as defined below).

N E S S E T H: 
 WHEREAS, the Banks have previously provided to QC Holdings, Inc., a Kansas corporation
(“Borrower”) certain credit facilities pursuant to the Credit Agreement dated as of January 19, 2006 by and among the Borrower, the Agent and the Banks (as from time to time amended, revised, modified, supplemented or amended and
restated, the “Credit Agreement”); and 
 WHEREAS, Grantor is, directly or indirectly, a Subsidiary of the Borrower and will
materially benefit from the Loans made and the Letter of Credits issued and to be issued under the Credit Agreement; and 
 WHEREAS,
contemporaneously with the execution of this Security Agreement, Grantor is executing and delivering to Agent for the benefit of the Banks a guaranty agreement (the “Subsidiary Guaranty”) pursuant to which Grantor has guaranteed payment

 WHEREAS, Grantor is
required to enter into this Security Agreement pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement; and 
 WHEREAS, a material part of the
consideration given in connection with and as an inducement to the execution and delivery of the Credit Agreement by the Agent and the Banks was the obligation of the Borrower to cause Grantor to enter into this Security Agreement; and 

WHEREAS, the Banks are unwilling to extend and/or maintain the credit facilities provided under the Loan Documents unless Grantor enters into
this Security Agreement; and

 3. Perfection. At the time of execution of this Security
Agreement, Grantor shall have, to the extent expressly required by the terms hereof or of the Credit Agreement, or otherwise as the Agent may request, furnished the Agent with properly executed control agreement, registrars’ certificates,
issuer acknowledgments of the Agent’s interest in letter of credit rights, and evidence of the electronic identification of the Agent’s interest in electronic chattel paper and of the placement of a restrictive legend on tangible chattel
paper, as appropriate, with respect to Collateral in which either (i) a security interest can be perfected only by control or such electronic identification or restrictive legending, or (ii) a security interest perfected by control or
accompanied by such electronic identification or restrictive legending shall have priority as against a security interest perfected by Persons not having control or not accompanied by such electronic identification or restrictive legending, in each
case in form and substance acceptable to the Agent and sufficient under applicable law so that the Agent, for the benefit of the Banks, shall have a security interest in all such Collateral perfected by control, subject only to Liens allowed to
exist under Section 7.02(e) of the Credit Agreement. All financing statements (including all amendments thereto and continuations thereof), control agreements, certificates, acknowledgments, stock powers and other documents, electronic
identification, restrictive legends, and instruments furnished in connection with the creation, enforcement, protection, perfection or priority of the Agent’s security interest in Collateral, including such items as are described above in this
Section 3 are sometimes referred to herein as “Perfection Documents”. The delivery of possession of items of or evidencing Collateral, causing other Persons to execute and deliver Perfection Documents as appropriate, the filing
or recordation of Perfection Documents, and the taking of such other actions as may be necessary or advisable in the determination of the Agent to create, enforce, protect, perfect, or establish or maintain the priority of, the security interest of
the Agent for the benefit of the Banks in the Collateral is sometimes referred to herein as “Perfection Action”. 
 4.
Maintenance of Security Interest; Further Assurances. 
 (a) Grantor will from time to time at its own expense,
deliver specific assignments of Collateral or such other Perfection Documents, and take such other or additional Perfection Action, as may be required by the terms of the Loan Documents or as the Agent may reasonably request in connection with the
administration or enforcement of this Security Agreement or related to the Collateral or any part thereof in order to carry out the terms of this Security Agreement, to perfect, protect, maintain the priority of or enforce the Agent’s security
interest in the Collateral, or otherwise to better assure and confirm unto the Agent its rights, powers and remedies for the benefit of the Banks hereunder. Without limiting the foregoing, Grantor hereby irrevocably authorizes the Agent to file
(with, or to the extent permitted by applicable law, without the signature of the Grantor appearing thereon) financing statements or other Perfection Documents (including copies thereof) showing Grantor as “debtor” at such time or times
and in all filing offices as the Agent may from time to time determine to be necessary or advisable to perfect or protect the rights of the Agent and the Banks hereunder, or otherwise to give effect to the transactions herein contemplated.

 (b) Notwithstanding anything herein or in the other Loan Documents to the contrary,
Grantor may retain possession of all payday loan promissory notes payable to Grantor; provided, however, that so long as any Event of Default is in effect, Grantor shall promptly deliver to the Agent, if the Agent so requests, the originals of all
such promissory notes together with any checks and supporting obligations held for the payment of such promissory notes. 
 (c) With respect to any and all Collateral, Grantor agrees to do and cause to be done all things necessary to perfect, maintain the priority of and keep in full force the security interest granted in favor of the Agent for the benefit of
the Banks, including, but not limited to, the prompt payment upon demand therefor by the Agent of all fees and expenses (including documentary stamp, excise or intangibles taxes) incurred in connection with the preparation, delivery, or filing of
any Perfection Document or the taking of any Perfection Action to perfect, protect or enforce a security interest in Collateral in favor of the Agent for the benefit of the Banks, subject only to Permitted Liens. All amounts not so paid when due
shall constitute additional Secured Obligations and (in addition to other rights and remedies resulting from such nonpayment) shall bear interest from the date of demand until paid in full at the Default Rate. 
 (d) Grantor agrees to maintain among its books and records appropriate notations or evidence of, and to make or cause to be made
appropriate disclosure upon its financial statements of, the security interest granted hereunder to the Agent for the benefit of the Banks. 
 5. Receipt of Payment. In the event an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing and a Grantor (or any of its Affiliates, Subsidiaries, stockholders, directors, officers, employees or agents) shall receive any proceeds of
Collateral, including without limitation monies, checks, notes, drafts or any other items of payment, Grantor shall hold all such items of payment in trust for the Agent for the benefit of the Banks, and as the property of the Agent for the benefit
of the Banks, separate from the funds and other property of Grantor, and no later than the first Business Day following the receipt thereof, at the election of the Agent, Grantor shall cause such Collateral to be forwarded to the Agent for its
custody, possession and disposition on behalf of the Banks in accordance with the terms hereof and of the other Loan Documents. 
 6.
Preservation and Protection of Collateral. 
 The Agent shall be under no duty or liability with respect to the
collection, protection or preservation of the Collateral, or otherwise, except for the use of reasonable care in the custody and preservation thereof while in its possession and to the extent expressly contemplated under Section 25.
Grantor shall be responsible for the safekeeping of its Collateral, and in no event shall the Agent have any responsibility for (i) any loss or damage thereto or destruction thereof occurring or arising in any manner or fashion from any cause,
(ii) any diminution in the value thereof, or (iii) any act or default of any carrier, warehouseman, bailee or forwarding agency thereof or other Person in any way dealing with or handling such Collateral. 

 (a) Grantor shall keep and maintain its tangible personal property Collateral in good
operating condition and repair, ordinary wear and tear excepted. 
 (b) Grantor agrees (i) to pay when due all taxes,
charges and assessments against the Collateral in which it has any interest, unless being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings diligently conducted and against which adequate reserves have been established in accordance with GAAP
applied on a consistent basis and evidenced to the satisfaction of the Agent in the nature of levy or foreclosure are effectively stayed, and (ii) to cause to be terminated and released all Liens on the Collateral other than Liens in respect of
such Collateral expressly permitted under Section 7.02(e) of the Credit Agreement (“Permitted Liens”). 
 Upon the failure of any
Grantor to so pay or contest such taxes, charges, or assessments, or cause such Liens to be terminated, the Agent at its option may pay or contest any of them or amounts relating thereto (the Agent having the sole right to determine the legality or
validity and the amount necessary to discharge such taxes, charges, Liens or assessments) but shall not have any obligation to make any such payment or contest. All sums so disbursed by the Agent, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, court
costs, expenses and other charges related thereto, shall be payable on demand by the applicable Grantor to the Agent and shall be additional Secured Obligations secured by the Collateral, and any amounts not so paid on demand (in addition to other
rights and remedies resulting from such nonpayment) shall bear interest from the date of demand until paid in full at the Default Rate. 
 7.
Status of Grantor and Collateral Generally. Grantor represents and warrants to, and covenants with, the Agent for the benefit of the Banks, with respect to itself and the Collateral as to which it has or acquires any interest, that:

 (a) It is (or as to Collateral acquired after the date hereof will be upon the acquisition of the same) and, except as
permitted by the Credit Agreement and subsection (b) of this Section 7, will continue to be, the owner of the Collateral, free and clear of all Liens, other than the security interest hereunder in favor of the Agent for the benefit
of the Banks and Permitted Liens, and that it will at its own cost and expense defend such Collateral and any products and proceeds thereof against all claims and demands of all Persons (other than holders of Permitted Liens) at any time claiming
the same or any interest therein adverse to the Agent. Upon the failure of any Grantor to so defend, the Agent may do so at its option but shall not have any obligation to do so. All sums so disbursed by the Agent, including reasonable
attorneys’ fees, court costs, expenses and other charges related thereto, shall be payable on demand by the applicable Grantor to the Agent and shall be additional Secured Obligations secured by the Collateral, and any amounts not so paid on
demand (in addition to other rights and remedies resulting from such nonpayment) shall bear interest from the date of demand until paid in full at the Default Rate. 
 (b) It shall not (i) sell, assign, transfer, lease, license or otherwise dispose of any of, or grant any option with respect to, the
Collateral, except for dispositions permitted under the Credit Agreement, (ii) create or suffer to exist any Lien upon or with respect to any of the Collateral except for the security interests created by 

 
this Security Agreement and Permitted Liens, or (iii) take any other action in connection with any of the Collateral that would materially impair the
value of the interest or rights of Grantor in the Collateral taken as a whole or that would materially impair the interest or rights of the Agent for the benefit of the Banks. 
 (c) It has full power, legal right and lawful authority to enter into this Security Agreement and to perform its terms, including the
grant of the security interests in the Collateral herein provided for. 
 (d) No authorization, consent, approval or other
action by, and no notice to or filing with, any Governmental Authority or any other Person is required either (i) for the grant by Grantor of the security interests granted hereby or for the execution, delivery or performance of this Security
Agreement by Grantor, or (ii) for the perfection of or the exercise by the Agent, on behalf of the Banks, of its rights and remedies hereunder, except for action required by the Uniform Commercial Code to perfect the security interest conferred
hereunder. 
 (e) No effective financing statement or other Perfection Document similar in effect, nor any other Perfection
Action, covering all or any part of the Collateral purported to be granted or taken by or on behalf of Grantor (or by or on behalf of any other Person and which remains effective as against all or any part of the Collateral) has been filed in any
recording office, delivered to another Person for filing (whether upon the occurrence of a contingency or otherwise), or otherwise taken, as the case may be, except such as pertain to Permitted Liens and such as may have been filed for the benefit
of, delivered to, or taken in favor of, the Agent for the benefit of the Banks in connection with the security interests conferred hereunder. 
 (f) Schedule 7(f) attached hereto contains true and complete information as to each of the following: (i) the exact legal name of Grantor as it appears in its organizational documents as of the date hereof
and at any time during the five (5) year period ending as of the date hereof (the “Covered Period”), (ii) the jurisdiction of formation and form of organization of Grantor, (iii) the address of the chief executive office of
Grantor as of the date hereof and at any time during the Covered Period, (iv) all trade names or trade styles used by Grantor as of the date hereof, (v) the address of each location of Grantor at which any tangible personal property
Collateral is located as of the date hereof and, with respect to each location that is not owned beneficially and of record by Grantor, Grantor will provide to Agent, upon the request of Agent, the name and address of the owner thereof. Grantor
shall not change its name or its jurisdiction of formation without providing Agent fifteen (15) days prior written notice thereof. 
 (g) Grantor shall not engage in any consignment transaction in respect of any of the Collateral, whether as consignee or consignor, without the prior written consent of the Agent in each instance. 
 8. Inspection. The Agent (by any of its officers, employees and agents), on behalf of the Banks, shall have the right upon prior notice to
an executive officer of any Grantor, and at any reasonable times during Grantor’s usual business hours, to inspect the Collateral, all records 

 
related thereto (and to make extracts or copies from such records), and the premises upon which any of the Collateral is located, to discuss Grantor’s
affairs and finances with any Person and to verify with any Person the amount, quality, quantity, value and condition of, or any other matter relating to, the Collateral. Upon or after the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of
Default, the Agent, acting in a commercially reasonable manner, may at any time and from time to time employ and maintain on Grantor’s premises a custodian selected by the Agent who shall have full authority to do all acts necessary to protect
the Agent’s (for the benefit of the Banks) interest. All reasonable expenses incurred by the Agent, on behalf of the Banks, by reason of the employment of such custodian shall be paid by Grantor on demand from time to time and shall be added to
the Secured Obligations secured by the Collateral, and any amounts not so paid on demand (in addition to other rights and remedies resulting from such nonpayment) shall bear interest from the date of demand until paid in full at the Default Rate.

 9. [Intentionally Omitted]. 
 10. Casualty and Liability Insurance Required. 
 (a) Grantor will keep the
Collateral continuously insured against such risks in a manner consistent with the past practice of Grantor and otherwise as required under Section 7.01(c) of the Credit Agreement. 
 (b) Each insurance policy obtained in satisfaction of the requirements of Section 10(a): 
 (i) may be provided by blanket policies now or hereafter maintained by each or any Grantor or by the Borrower; 
 (ii) shall be issued by such insurer (or insurers) as shall be financially responsible, of recognized standing and reasonably acceptable
to the Agent; 
 (iii) shall be in such form and have such provisions (including without limitation the loss payable clause,
the waiver of subrogation clause, the deductible amount, if any, and the standard mortgagee endorsement clause) as are generally considered standard provisions for the type of insurance involved and are reasonably acceptable in all respects to the
Agent; 
 (iv) shall prohibit cancellation or substantial modification, termination or lapse in coverage by the insurer
without at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to the Agent, except for non-payment of premium, as to which such policies shall provide for at least ten (10) days’ prior written notice to the Agent; 
 (v) without limiting the generality of the foregoing, all insurance policies where applicable under Section 10(a)(i) carried on the
Collateral shall name the Agent, for the benefit of the Banks, as loss payee and as a party insured thereunder in respect of any claim for payment. 

 Prior to expiration of any such policy, Grantor shall furnish the Agent with evidence
satisfactory to the Agent that the policy or certificate has been renewed or replaced or is no longer required by this Security Agreement. 
 (c) Grantor hereby makes, constitutes and appoints the Agent (and all officers, employees or agents designated by the Agent), for the benefit of the Banks, as Grantor’s true and lawful attorney (and
agent-in-fact) for the purpose of making, settling and adjusting claims under such policies of insurance, endorsing the name of Grantor on any check, draft, instrument or other item or payment for the proceeds of such policies of insurance and for
making all determinations and decisions with respect to such policies of insurance, which appointment is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable; provided, however, that the powers pursuant to such appointment shall be exercisable
only upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default. 
 (d) In the event Grantor shall fail to
maintain, or fail to cause to be maintained, the full insurance coverage required hereunder or shall fail to keep any of its Collateral in good repair and good operating condition, the Agent may (but shall be under no obligation to), without waiving
or releasing any Secured Obligation or Default or Event of Default by Grantor hereunder, contract for the required policies of insurance and pay the premiums on the same or make any required repairs, renewals and replacements; and all sums so
disbursed by Agent, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, court costs, expenses and other charges related thereto, shall be payable on demand by Grantor to the Agent, shall be additional Secured Obligations secured by the Collateral, and (in
addition to other rights and remedies resulting from such nonpayment) shall bear interest from the date of demand until paid in full at the Default Rate. 
 (e) Grantor agrees that to the extent that it shall fail to maintain, or fail to cause to be maintained, the full insurance coverage required by Section 10(a), it shall in the event of any loss or casualty
pay promptly to the Agent, for the benefit of the Banks, to be held in a separate account for application in accordance with the provisions of Sections 10(h), such amount as would have been received as Net Proceeds (as hereinafter defined) by
the Agent, for the benefit of the Banks, under the provisions of Section 10(h) had such insurance been carried to the extent required. 
 (f) The Net Proceeds of the insurance carried pursuant to the provisions of Sections 10(a)(ii) and 10(a)(iii) shall be applied by Grantor toward satisfaction of the claim or liability with respect to which such
insurance proceeds may be paid. 
 (g) The Net Proceeds of the insurance carried with respect to the Collateral pursuant to
the provisions of Section 10(a)(i) hereof shall, as long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, be paid to Grantor and applied as follows: (1) if such Net Proceeds are $500,000 or less, as Grantor shall elect,
or (2) if such Net Proceeds are greater than $500,000, then after any loss under any such insurance and payment of the proceeds of such insurance, Grantor shall have a period of thirty (30) days after payment of the insurance proceeds with
respect to such loss to elect to either (x) repair or replace the Collateral so damaged, (y) deliver such Net Proceeds to the 

 
Agent, for the benefit of the Banks, as additional Collateral or (z) apply such Net Proceeds to the acquisition of tangible assets constituting
Collateral used or useful in the conduct of the business of Grantor, subject to the provisions of this Security Agreement. If Grantor elects to repair or replace the Collateral so damaged, Grantor agrees the Collateral shall be repaired to a
condition substantially similar to or of better quality or higher value than its condition prior to damage or replaced with Collateral in a condition substantially similar to or of better quality or higher value than the condition of the Collateral
so replaced prior to damage. At all times during which an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Agent shall be entitled to receive direct and immediate payment of the proceeds of such insurance and Grantor shall take all action
as the Agent may reasonably request to accomplish such payment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event Grantor shall receive any such proceeds, Grantor shall immediately deliver such proceeds to such Agent for the benefit of the Banks as
additional Collateral, and pending such delivery shall hold such proceeds in trust for the benefit of the Agent on behalf of the Banks and keep the same segregated from its other funds. 
 (h) “Net Proceeds” when used with respect to any insurance proceeds shall mean the gross proceeds from such proceeds, award or
other amount, less all taxes, fees and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred in the realization thereof. 
 (i)
In case of any material damage to, destruction or loss of, or claim or proceeding against, all or any material part of the Collateral pledged hereunder by a Grantor, Grantor shall give prompt notice thereof to the Agent. Each such notice shall
describe generally the nature and extent of such damage, destruction, loss, claim or proceeding. Subject to Section 10(d), Grantor is hereby authorized and empowered to adjust or compromise any loss under any such insurance other than
losses relating to claims made directly against any the Agent or any Bank as to which the insurance described in Section 10(a)(ii) or (iii) is applicable. 
 11. Rights and Remedies Upon Event of Default. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, the Agent shall have
the following rights and remedies on behalf of the Banks in addition to any rights and remedies set forth elsewhere in this Security Agreement or the other Loan Documents, all of which may be exercised with or, if allowed by law, without notice to a
Grantor: 
 (a) All of the rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC or under other applicable law, all of which
rights and remedies shall be cumulative, and none of which shall be exclusive, to the extent permitted by law, in addition to any other rights and remedies contained in this Security Agreement or any other Loan Document; 
 (b) The right to foreclose the Liens and security interests created under this Security Agreement by any available judicial procedure or
without judicial process; 
 (c) The right to (i) enter upon the premises of a Grantor through self-help and without
judicial process, without first obtaining a final judgment or giving Grantor notice or opportunity for a hearing on the validity of the Agent’s claim and without any obligation to pay rent to Grantor, or any other place or places where any
Collateral is located and kept, and remove the Collateral therefrom to the premises of the 

 
Agent or any agent of the Agent, for such time as the Agent may desire, in order effectively to collect or liquidate the Collateral, and (ii) require
Grantor or any bailee or other agent of Grantor to assemble the Collateral and make it available to the Agent at a place to be designated by the Agent that is reasonably convenient to both parties; 
 (d) The right to (i) exercise all of a Grantor’s rights and remedies with respect to the collection of Accounts, Chattel Paper,
Instruments, Supporting Obligations and General Intangibles (collectively, “Payment Collateral”), including the right to demand payment thereof and enforce payment, by legal proceedings or otherwise; (ii) settle, adjust, compromise,
extend or renew all or any Payment Collateral or any legal proceedings pertaining thereto; (iii) discharge and release all or any Payment Collateral; (iv) take control, in any manner, of any item of payment or proceeds referred to in
Section 5 above; (v) prepare, file and sign a Grantor’s name on any Proof of Claim in bankruptcy, notice of Lien, assignment or satisfaction of Lien or similar document in any action or proceeding adverse to any obligor under
any Payment Collateral or otherwise in connection with any Payment Collateral; (vi) endorse the name of a Grantor upon any chattel paper, document, instrument, invoice, freight bill, bill of lading or similar document or agreement relating to
any Collateral; (vii) use the information recorded on or contained in any data processing equipment and computer hardware and software relating to any Collateral to which a Grantor has access; (viii) open Grantor’s mail and collect
any and all amounts due to Grantor from any Account Debtors or other obligor in respect of Payment Collateral; (ix) take over Grantor’s post office boxes or make other arrangements as the Agent, on behalf of the Banks, deems necessary to
receive Grantor’s mail relative to the Payment Collateral, including notifying the post office authorities to change the address for delivery of such mail to such address as the Agent, on behalf of the Banks, may designate; (x) notify any
or all Account Debtors or other obligor on any Payment Collateral that such Payment Collateral has been assigned to the Agent for the benefit of the Banks and that Agent has a security interest therein for the benefit of the Banks (provided that the
Agent may at any time give such notice to an Account Debtor that is a department, agency or authority of the United States government); Grantor hereby agrees that any such notice, in the Agent’s sole discretion, may (but need not) be sent on
Grantor’s stationery, in which event Grantor shall co-sign such notice with the Agent; (xi) require a Grantor to establish a lockbox account with the Agent, which lockbox shall be under the control of the Agent and to which payment of all
Accounts shall be directed upon demand of the Agent; and (xii) do all acts and things and execute all documents necessary, in Agent’s sole discretion, to collect the Payment Collateral; and 
 (e) The right to sell all or any Collateral in its then existing condition, or after any further manufacturing or processing thereof, at
such time or times, at public or private sale or sales, with such notice as may be required by law, in lots or in bulk, for cash or on credit, with or without representations and warranties, all as the Agent, in its sole discretion, may deem
advisable. The Agent shall have the right to conduct such sales on a Grantor’s premises or elsewhere and shall have the right to use a Grantor’s premises without charge for such sales for such reasonable time or times as is necessary to
conduct such sales. The Agent may, if it deems it reasonable, postpone or adjourn any sale of the Collateral from time to time by an announcement at the time and place of such postponed or adjourned sale, and such sale may, without further notice,
be made at the 

 
time and place to which it was so adjourned. Grantor agrees that the Agent has no obligation to preserve rights to the Collateral against prior parties or to
marshall any Collateral for the benefit of any Person. The Agent for the benefit of the Banks is hereby granted a license or other right to use, without charge, Grantor’s labels, patents, copyrights, rights of use of any name, trade secrets,
trade names, trademarks and advertising matter, or any property of a similar nature, as it pertains to the Collateral, in completing production of, advertising for sale and selling any Collateral and a Grantor’s rights under any license and any
franchise agreement shall inure to the Agent’s benefit. If any of the Collateral shall require repairs, maintenance, preparation or the like, or is in process or other unfinished state, the Agent shall have the right, but shall not be
obligated, to perform such repairs, maintenance, preparation, processing or completion of manufacturing for the purpose of putting the same in such saleable form as the Agent shall deem appropriate, but the Agent shall have the right to sell or
dispose of the Collateral without such processing and Grantor shall not have any claim against the Agent for the value that may have been added to such Collateral with such processing. In addition, Grantor agrees that in the event notice is
necessary under applicable law, written notice mailed to Grantor in the manner specified herein ten (10) days prior to the date of public sale of any of the Collateral or prior to the date after which any private sale or other disposition of
the Collateral will be made shall constitute commercially reasonable notice to Grantor. All notice is hereby waived with respect to any of the Collateral which threatens to decline speedily in value or is of a type customarily sold on a recognized
market. The Agent may purchase all or any part of the Collateral at public or, if permitted by law, private sale, free from any right of redemption which is hereby expressly waived by Grantor and, in lieu of actual payment of such purchase price,
may set off the amount of such price against the Secured Obligations. Grantor recognizes that the Agent may be unable to effect a public sale of certain of the Collateral by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the “Securities Act”), and applicable state law, and may be otherwise delayed or adversely affected in effecting any sale by reason of present or future restrictions thereon imposed by governmental authorities (“Affected
Collateral”), and that as a consequence of such prohibitions and restrictions the Agent may be compelled (i) to resort to one or more private sales to a restricted group of purchasers who will be obliged to agree, among other things, to
acquire Affected Collateral for their own account, for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof, or (ii) to seek regulatory approval of any proposed sale or sales, or (iii) to limit the amount of Affected
Collateral sold to any Person or group. Grantor agrees and acknowledges that private sales so made may be at prices and upon terms less favorable to Grantor than if such Affected Collateral was sold either at public sales or at private sales not
subject to other regulatory restrictions, and that the Agent has no obligation to delay the sale of any Affected Collateral for the period of time necessary to permit the Grantor or any other Person to register or otherwise qualify them under or
exempt them from any applicable restriction, even if Grantor or other Person would agree to register or otherwise qualify or exempt such Affected Collateral so as to permit a public sale under the Securities Act or applicable state law. Grantor
further agrees, to the extent permitted by applicable law, that the use of private sales made under the foregoing circumstances to dispose of Affected Collateral shall be deemed to be dispositions in a commercially reasonable manner. Grantor hereby

 
acknowledges that a ready market may not exist for Affected Collateral that is not traded on a national securities exchange or quoted on an automated
quotation system. 
 The net cash proceeds resulting from the collection, liquidation, sale, or other disposition of the Collateral shall be applied first to
the expenses (including all attorneys’ fees) of retaking, holding, storing, processing and preparing for sale, selling, collecting, liquidating and the like, and then to the satisfaction of all Secured Obligations in such manner as Agent may
determine in its sole discretion. Grantor shall be liable to the Agent, for the benefit of the Banks, and shall pay to the Agent, for the benefit of the Banks, on demand any deficiency which may remain after such sale, disposition, collection or
liquidation of the Collateral. In the event any surplus of net cash proceeds exists after satisfaction of all Secured Obligations, such surplus shall be promptly paid to the Grantor(s). 
 12. Attorney-in-Fact. Grantor hereby appoints the Agent as the Grantor’s attorney-in-fact for the purposes of carrying out the
provisions of this Security Agreement and taking any action and executing any instrument which the Agent may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes hereof, which appointment is irrevocable and coupled with an interest;
provided, that the Agent shall have and may exercise rights under this power of attorney only upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, upon the occurrence and
during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Agent shall have the right and power: 
 (a) to ask, demand, collect, sue
for, recover, compromise, receive and give acquittance and receipts for moneys due and to become due under or in respect of any of the Collateral; 
 (b) to receive, endorse and collect any drafts or other instruments, documents and chattel paper in connection with clause (a) above; 
 (c) to endorse Grantor’s name on any checks, notes, drafts or any other payment relating to or constituting proceeds of the
Collateral which comes into the Agent’s possession or the Agent’s control, and deposit the same to the account of the Agent, for the benefit of the Banks, on account and for payment of the Secured Obligations; 
 (d) to file any claims or take any action or institute any proceedings that the Agent may deem necessary or desirable for the collection
of any of the Collateral or otherwise to enforce the rights of the Agent, for the benefit of the Banks, with respect to any of the Collateral; and 
 (e) to execute, in connection with any sale or other disposition of Collateral provided for herein, any endorsement, assignments, or other instruments of conveyance or transfer with respect thereto. 
 13. Reinstatement. The granting of a security interest in the Collateral and the other provisions hereof shall continue to be effective or
be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment of any of the Secured Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by Agent or any Bank, whether upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any Grantor or 

 
any Guarantor or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made. The provisions of this Section 13 shall survive repayment of all of the
Secured Obligations and the termination or expiration of this Security Agreement in any manner, including but not limited to termination upon occurrence of the Termination Date; provided, this provision shall not alter the Agent’s
obligation with respect to termination contained in Section 24 hereof. 
 14. Certain Waivers by Grantor. Grantor
waives to the extent permitted by applicable law (a) any right to require the Agent or any other obligee of the Secured Obligations to (x) proceed against any Person, including without limitation any Guarantor, (y) proceed against or
exhaust any Collateral or other collateral for the Secured Obligations, or (z) pursue any other remedy in its power; (b) any defense arising by reason of any disability or other defense of any other Person, or by reason of the cessation
from any cause whatsoever of the liability of any other Person, (c) any right of subrogation, (d) any defense or claim arising by reason of any impairment of any of the Collateral, (e) any right to enforce any remedy which the Agent
or any other obligee of the Secured Obligations now has or may hereafter have against any other Person and any benefit of and any right to participate in any collateral or security whatsoever now or hereafter held by the Agent for the benefit of the
Banks, (f) require the Agent or any Bank to disclose to the Grantor any information which it may now have or hereafter acquire regarding the financial condition of the Borrower, and (g) provide notices of default or nonperformance by the
Borrower to the Grantor. Grantor authorizes the Agent and the Banks, without affecting the Grantor’s obligations under this Agreement, to enter into agreements with the Borrower to change the interest rate on or renew the Borrower’s
Obligations, accelerate, extend, compromise or otherwise change the repayment terms of the Borrower’s Obligations. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Grantor authorizes each Secured Party and each obligee of the Secured Obligations
without notice (except notice required by applicable law) or demand and without affecting its liability hereunder or under the Loan Documents from time to time to: (i) take and hold security, other than the Collateral herein described, for the
payment of such Secured Obligations or any part thereof, and exchange, enforce, waive and release the Collateral herein described or any part thereof or any such other security; and (ii) apply such Collateral or other security and direct the
order or manner of sale thereof as such Agent or obligee in its discretion may determine. 
 The Agent may at any time deliver (without
representation, recourse or warranty) the Collateral or any part thereof to a Grantor and the receipt thereof by Grantor shall be a complete and full acquittance for the Collateral so delivered, and the Agent shall thereafter be discharged from any
liability or responsibility therefor. 
 15. Continued Powers. Until the Termination Date shall have occurred, the power of
sale and other rights, powers and remedies granted to the Agent for the benefit of the Banks hereunder shall continue to exist and, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, may be exercised by the Agent at any time and
from time to time irrespective of the fact that any of the Secured Obligations or any part thereof may have become barred by any statute of limitations or that any part of the liability of any Grantor may have ceased. 
 16. Other Rights. The rights, powers and remedies given to the Agent for the benefit of the Banks by this Security Agreement shall be in
addition to all rights, powers and remedies given to the Agent or any Bank under any Loan Documents or by virtue of any statute or rule of 

 
law. Any forbearance or failure or delay by the Agent in exercising any right, power or remedy hereunder shall not be deemed to be a waiver of such right,
power or remedy, and any single or partial exercise of any right, power or remedy hereunder shall not preclude the further exercise thereof; and every right, power and remedy of the Agent and the Banks shall continue in full force and effect until
such right, power or remedy is specifically waived in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement. 
 17. Anti-Marshaling
Provisions. The right is hereby given by Grantor to the Agent, for the benefit of the Banks, to make releases (whether in whole or in part) of all or any part of the Collateral agreeable to the Agent without notice to, or the consent,
approval or agreement of other parties and interests, including junior lienors, which releases shall not impair in any manner the validity of or priority of the Liens and security interests in the remaining Collateral conferred hereunder, nor
release any Grantor from personal liability for the Secured Obligations. Notwithstanding the existence of any other security interest in the Collateral held by the Agent, for the benefit of the Banks, the Agent shall have the right to determine the
order in which any or all of the Collateral shall be subjected to the remedies provided in this Security Agreement. Grantor hereby waives any and all right to require the marshaling of assets in connection with the exercise of any of the remedies
permitted by applicable law or provided herein or in any Loan Documents. 
 18. Entire Agreement. This Security Agreement,
together with the Credit Agreement and other Loan Documents, constitutes and expresses the entire understanding between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof, and supersedes all prior negotiations, agreements and
understandings, inducements, commitments or conditions, express or implied, oral or written, except as contained in the Loan Documents. The express terms hereof control and supersede any course of performance or usage of the trade inconsistent with
any of the terms hereof. Neither this Security Agreement nor any portion or provision hereof may be changed, altered, modified, supplemented, discharged, canceled, terminated, or amended orally or in any manner other than as provided in the Credit
Agreement. 
 19. Third Party Reliance. Grantor hereby consents and agrees that all issuers of or obligors in respect of any
Collateral, and all securities intermediaries, warehousemen, bailees, public officials and other Persons having any interest in, possession of, control over or right, privilege, duty or discretion in respect of, any Collateral shall be entitled to
accept the provisions hereof as conclusive evidence of the right of the Agent, on behalf of the Banks, to exercise its rights hereunder with respect to the Collateral, notwithstanding any other notice or direction to the contrary heretofore or
hereafter given by any Grantor or any other Person to any of such Persons. 
 20. Binding Agreement; Assignment. This Security
Agreement, and the terms, covenants and conditions hereof, shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto, and to their respective successors and assigns, except that Grantor shall not be permitted to assign this Security
Agreement or any interest herein or, except as expressly permitted herein or in the Credit Agreement, in the Collateral or any part thereof, or otherwise, except as expressly permitted herein or in the Credit Agreement, pledge, encumber or grant any
option with respect to the Collateral or any part thereof. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence of this Section 20, any Bank may assign to one or more Persons, or grant to one or more Persons participations in or to,
all or any part of its rights and obligations under the 

 
Credit Agreement (to the extent permitted by the Credit Agreement); and to the extent of any such assignment or participation such other Person shall, to the
fullest extent permitted by law, thereupon become vested with all the benefits in respect thereof granted to such Bank herein or otherwise, subject however, to the provisions of the Credit Agreement, including Article IX thereof (concerning
the Agent) and Section 11.07 thereof (concerning assignments and participations). All references herein to the Agent and to the Banks shall include any successor thereof or permitted assignee, and any other obligees from time to time of
the Secured Obligations. 
 21. Intentionally Omitted. 
 22. Severability. The provisions of this Security Agreement are independent of and separable from each other. If any provision hereof shall
for any reason be held invalid or unenforceable, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision hereof, but this Security Agreement shall be construed as if such invalid or unenforceable
provision had never been contained herein. 
 23. Counterparts. This Security Agreement may be executed in any number of
counterparts each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed an original, and it shall not be necessary in making proof of this Security Agreement to produce or account for more than one such counterpart executed by the Grantor against
whom enforcement is sought. 
 24. Termination. Subject to the provisions of Section 13, this Security Agreement
and all obligations of the Grantor hereunder (excluding those obligations and liabilities that expressly survive such termination) shall terminate without delivery of any instrument or performance of any act by any party on the Termination Date.
Upon such termination of this Security Agreement, the Agent shall, at the request and sole expense of the Grantor, promptly deliver to the Grantor such termination statements and take such further actions as the Grantor may reasonably request to
terminate of record, or otherwise to give appropriate notice of the termination of, any Lien conferred hereunder. 
 25.
Notices. Any notice required or permitted hereunder shall be given (a) with respect to any Grantor, at the address for the giving of notice then in effect under the Credit Agreement for the Borrower, and (b) with respect to
the Agent or a Bank, at the Agent’s address indicated in the Credit Agreement. All such addresses may be modified, and all such notices shall be given and shall be effective, as provided in Section 11.02 of the Credit Agreement.

 26. Rules of Interpretation. The rules of interpretation contained in Sections 1.02 of the Credit Agreement shall be
applicable to this Security Agreement and are hereby incorporated by reference. All representations and warranties contained herein shall survive the delivery of documents and any extension of credit referred to herein or secured hereby.

 Exhibit 10.22 
 UNLIMITED CONTINUING GUARANTY 
 THIS UNLIMITED CONTINUING GUARANTY (this “Guaranty
Agreement”), dated as of December 1, 2006, is made by Express Check Advance of South Carolina, LLC, a Tennessee limited liability company (“Guarantor”), for the benefit of U.S. BANK NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, a national banking
association organized and existing under the laws of the United States, as agent (in such capacity, the “Agent”) for each of the lenders (the “Banks”) now or hereafter party to the Credit Agreement (as defined below). All
capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Credit Agreement (as defined below). 
 W I T N E S S E T H: 
 WHEREAS, the Banks have previously provided to QC Holdings, Inc., a Kansas corporation
(“Borrower”) a revolving credit facility with a sublimit for the issuance of letters of credit pursuant to the terms of that certain Credit Agreement dated as of January 19, 2006, among the Borrower, the Agent and the Banks (as from
time to time amended, modified, supplemented or restated, the “Credit Agreement”); and 
 WHEREAS, Guarantor is owned,
directly or indirectly, by Borrower and will materially benefit from the Loans made and the Letters of Credit issued and to be issued, under the Credit Agreement to Borrower ; and 
 WHEREAS, Guarantor is required to enter into this Guaranty Agreement pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement; and 
 WHEREAS, a material part of the consideration given in connection with and as an inducement to the execution and delivery of the Credit Agreement
by the Agent and the Banks was the obligation of the Borrower to cause Guarantor to enter into this Guaranty Agreement; and 
 WHEREAS,
the Banks are unwilling to extend and/or maintain the credit facilities provided under the Loan Documents unless Guarantor enters into this Guaranty Agreement; 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and mutual covenants contained herein, the parties hereto agree as follows: 
 1. Guaranty. Guarantor hereby unconditionally, absolutely, continually and irrevocably guarantees, on a joint and several basis, to the Agent for the benefit of the Banks the payment and performance in
full of the Borrower’s Liabilities (as defined below). For all purposes of this Guaranty Agreement, “Borrower’s Liabilities” means: (a) the Borrower’s prompt payment in full, when due or declared due and at all such
times, of all Obligations and all other amounts pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement, the Notes, and all other Loan Documents heretofore, now or at any time or times hereafter owing, arising, due or payable from the Borrower to the Agent or
any one or more of the Banks, including principal, interest, premiums and fees (including, but not limited to, loan fees and attorneys’ fees and expenses); (b) the Borrower’s prompt, full and faithful performance, observance and
discharge of each and every agreement, undertaking, covenant and provision to be performed, observed or discharged by the Borrower under the Credit Agreement and all other Loan Documents; and (c) the Borrower’s 

  

 1 

 
prompt payment in full, when due or declared due and at all such times, of any obligations now or hereafter arising under any interest rate or currency swap,
rate cap or similar transaction (the “Hedge Agreements”). The Guarantor’s Obligations to the Agent and the Banks under this Guaranty Agreement are hereinafter referred to as the “Guarantor’s Obligations”.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the liability of Guarantor with respect to the Guarantor’s Obligations shall be limited to an aggregate amount equal to the largest amount that would not render its obligations hereunder subject to challenge under
Section 548 of the United States Bankruptcy Code or any comparable provisions of any applicable state law. 
 Guarantor agrees that it
is directly and primarily liable on a joint and several basis (subject to the limitation in the immediately preceding sentence) for the Borrower’s Liabilities. 
 The Guarantor’s Obligations are secured by various security instruments referred to in the Credit Agreement, including without limitation the Subsidiary Security Agreement. 
 2. Payment. If the Borrower shall default in payment or performance of the Borrower’s Liabilities, whether principal, interest,
premium, fee (including, but not limited to, loan fees and attorneys’ fees and expenses), or otherwise, when and as the same shall become due, and after expiration of any applicable grace period, whether according to the terms of the Credit
Agreement, by acceleration, or otherwise, or upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default under the Credit Agreement, then Guarantor will, upon demand thereof by the Agent, fully pay to the Agent, for the benefit of the
Banks, subject to any restriction on the Guarantor’s Obligations set forth in Section 1 hereof, an amount equal to all the Borrower’s Liabilities then due and owing. 
 3. Absolute Rights and Obligations. This is a guaranty of payment and not of collection. The Guarantor’s Obligations under this
Guaranty Agreement shall be joint and several, absolute and unconditional irrespective of, and Guarantor hereby expressly waives, to the extent permitted by law, any defense to its obligations under this Guaranty Agreement and all security
instruments to which it is a party by reason of: 
 (a) any lack of legality, validity or enforceability of the Credit
Agreement, of any of the Notes, of any other Loan Document, or of any other agreement or instrument creating, providing security for, or otherwise relating to any of the Guarantor’s Obligations, the Borrower’s Liabilities, or any other
guaranty of any of the Borrower’s Liabilities (the Loan Documents and all such other agreements and instruments being collectively referred to as the “Related Agreements”); 
 (b) any exercise of any right or power under any of the Related Agreements, any failure or omission to enforce any right conferred
thereby, or any waiver of any covenant or condition therein provided; 
 (c) any permitted acceleration of the maturity of the
Borrower’s Liabilities, of the Guarantor’s Obligations, or of any other obligations or liabilities of any Person under any of the Related Agreements; 
 (d) any release, exchange, non-perfection, lapse in perfection, disposal, deterioration in value, or impairment of any security for the
Borrower’s 

  

 2 

 
Liabilities, for any of the Guarantor’s Obligations, or for any other obligations or liabilities of any Person under any of the Related Agreements;

 (e) any dissolution of any Borrower or any Guarantor or any other party to a Related Agreement, or the combination or
consolidation of Borrower or any Guarantor or any other party to a Related Agreement into or with another entity or any transfer or disposition of any assets of Borrower or any Guarantor or any other party to a Related Agreement; 
 (f) any extension (including without limitation extensions of time for payment), renewal, amendment, restructuring or restatement of, and
any acceptance of late or partial payments under, the Credit Agreement, any of the Notes or any other Loan Document or any other Related Agreement, in whole or in part; 
 (g) the existence, addition, modification, termination, reduction or impairment of value, or release of any other guaranty (or security
therefor) of the Borrower’s Liabilities; 
 (h) any waiver of, forbearance or indulgence under, or other consent to any
change in or departure from any term or provision contained in the Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other Related Agreement, including without limitation any term pertaining to the payment or performance of the Borrower’s
Liabilities, any of the Guarantor’s Obligations, or any of the obligations or liabilities of any party to any other Related Agreement; and 
 (i) any other circumstance whatsoever (with or without notice to or knowledge of Guarantor) which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risks of Guarantor, or might otherwise constitute a legal or
equitable defense available to, or discharge of, a surety or a guarantor, including without limitation any right to require or claim that resort be had to the Borrower or any other Guarantor or to any collateral in respect of the Borrower’s
Liabilities or Guarantors’ Obligations. 
 It is the express purpose and intent of the parties hereto that this Guaranty
Agreement and the Guarantor’s Obligations hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances and shall not be discharged except by payment as herein provided. 
 4. Currency and Funds of Payment. All Guarantors’ Obligations will be paid in lawful currency of the United States of America and in
immediately available funds, regardless of any law, regulation or decree now or hereafter in effect that might in any manner affect the Borrower’s Liabilities, or the rights of any Secured Party with respect thereto as against any Borrower, or
cause or permit to be invoked any alteration in the time, amount or manner of payment by the Borrower of any or all of the Borrower’s Liabilities. 
 5. Events of Default. Without limiting the provisions of Section 2 hereof, in the event that there shall occur and be continuing an Event of Default, then notwithstanding any collateral or
other security or credit support for the Borrower’s Liabilities, at the Agent’s election 

  

 3 

 
and without notice thereof or demand therefor, the Guarantor’s Obligations shall immediately be and become due and payable. 
 6. Subordination. Until this Guaranty Agreement is terminated in accordance with Section 23 hereof, Guarantor
hereby unconditionally subordinates all present and future debts, liabilities or obligations now or hereafter owing to Guarantor (i) of the Borrower, to the payment in full of the Borrower’s Liabilities, and (ii) of every other
Guarantor (an “obligated guarantor”), to the payment in full of the Guarantor’s Obligations of such obligated guarantor. All amounts due under such subordinated debts, liabilities, or obligations shall, upon the occurrence and during
the continuance of an Event of Default, be collected and, upon request by the Agent, paid over forthwith to the Agent for the benefit of the Banks on account of the Borrower’s Liabilities, the Guarantor’s Obligations, or such other
obligations, as applicable, and, after such request and pending such payment, shall be held by Guarantor as agent and bailee of the Agent and the Banks separate and apart from all other funds, property and accounts, of Guarantor. 
 7. Suits. In the event there shall occur and be continuing an Event of Default, Guarantor from time to time shall pay to the Agent for the
benefit of the Banks, on demand, at the Agent’s place of business set forth in the Credit Agreement or such other address as the Agent shall give notice of to Guarantor, the Guarantor’s Obligations as they become or are declared due, and
in the event such payment is not made forthwith, the Agent may proceed to suit against Guarantor. At the Agent’s election, one or more and successive or concurrent suits may be brought hereon by the Agent against Guarantor, whether or not suit
has been commenced against the Borrower, any other Guarantor, or any other Person and whether or not the Agent has taken or failed to take any other action to collect all or any portion of the Borrower’s Liabilities or have taken or failed to
take any actions against any collateral securing payment or performance of all or any portion of the Borrower’s Liabilities, and irrespective of any event, occurrence, or condition described in Section 3 hereof. 
 8. Set-Off and Waiver. Guarantor waives any right to assert against any Secured Party as a defense, counterclaim, set-off, recoupment or
cross claim, any defense (legal or equitable) or other claim which Guarantor may now or at any time hereafter have against Borrower or any Secured Party (with respect to Secured Party, this waiver shall not apply to a defense, counterclaim set-off,
recoupment or cross claim arising solely out of Secured Party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct) without waiving any additional defenses, set-offs, counterclaims or other claims otherwise available to Guarantor. Guarantor agrees that
each Secured Party shall have a lien for all the Guarantor’s Obligations upon all deposits or deposit accounts, of any kind, or any interest in any deposits or deposit accounts, now or hereafter pledged, mortgaged, transferred or assigned to
such Secured Party or otherwise in the possession or control of such Secured Party for any purpose (other than solely for safekeeping) for the account or benefit of Guarantor, including any balance of any deposit account or of any credit of
Guarantor with the Secured Party, whether now existing or hereafter established, and hereby authorizes each Secured Party from and after the occurrence of an Event of Default at any time or times with or without prior notice to apply such balances
or any part thereof to such of the Guarantor’s Obligations to the Agent and the Banks then due and in such amounts as provided for in the Credit Agreement. For the purposes of this Section 8, all remittances and property shall be
deemed to be in the possession of the Agent or a Bank as soon as the same may be put in transit to it by mail or carrier or by other bailee.

 9. Waiver of Notice; Subrogation. 
 (a) Guarantor hereby waives to the extent permitted by law notice of the following events or occurrences: (i) acceptance of this
Guaranty Agreement; (ii) the Banks’ heretofore, now or from time to time hereafter making Loans and issuing Letters of Credit and otherwise loaning monies or extending credit to or for the benefit of Borrower, whether pursuant to the
Credit Agreement or the Notes or any other Loan Document or Related Agreement or any amendments, modifications, or supplements thereto, or replacements or extensions thereof, (iii) presentment, demand, default, non-payment, partial payment and
protest, and (iv) any other event, condition, or occurrence described in Section 3 hereof. 
 (b) Guarantor
hereby agrees that payment or performance by Guarantor of its Guarantors’ Obligations under this Guaranty Agreement may be enforced by the Agent on behalf of the Banks upon demand by the Agent to Guarantor without the Agent being required,
Guarantor expressly waiving to the extent permitted by law any right it may have to require the Agent, to (i) prosecute collection or seek to enforce or resort to any remedies against any Borrower or any other Guarantor of the Borrower’s
Liabilities, or (ii) seek to enforce or resort to any remedies with respect to any security interests, Liens or encumbrances granted to the Agent or any Bank or other party to a Related Agreement by Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other
Person on account of the Borrower’s Liabilities or any guaranty thereof, IT BEING EXPRESSLY UNDERSTOOD, ACKNOWLEDGED AND AGREED TO BY GUARANTOR THAT DEMAND UNDER THIS GUARANTY AGREEMENT MAY BE MADE BY THE AGENT, AND THE PROVISIONS HEREOF
ENFORCED BY THE AGENT, EFFECTIVE AS OF THE FIRST DATE ANY EVENT OF DEFAULT OCCURS AND IS CONTINUING UNDER THE CREDIT AGREEMENT. 
 (c) Guarantor further agrees with respect to this Guaranty Agreement that it shall have no right of subrogation, reimbursement, contribution or indemnity, nor any right of recourse to security for the Borrower’s Liabilities unless and
until 93 days immediately following the Termination Date shall have elapsed without the filing or commencement, by or against Borrower or Guarantor, of any state or federal action, suit, petition or proceeding seeking any reorganization, liquidation
or other relief or arrangement in respect of creditors of, or the appointment of a receiver, liquidator, trustee or conservator in respect to Borrower or Guarantor or its assets. This waiver is expressly intended to prevent the existence of any
claim in respect to such subrogation, reimbursement, contribution or indemnity by any Guarantor against the estate of Borrower or Guarantor within the meaning of Section 101 of the Bankruptcy Code, in the event of a subsequent case involving
