 This Amended and Restated Consulting Agreement amends, restates and supersedes the similar
letter agreement between Walnut Ventures, Inc., as predecessor to InterSearch Group, Inc. (the ”Company”) and GP Strategic Ventures, Inc. (“GP”). 
  
 Thank you for the opportunity to provide services to the Company. GP will provide the following services to the Company: 
  
 Services 
  

	 	1.	Advice in vendor, partner and customer contract negotiations. 

	 	2.	Advice in development of a Business Plan/Strategic Plan that will provide guidance to management, assist in obtaining financing, and provide the basis upon which the Company might
eventually be offered for sale or offer itself to the public in an IPO. 

	 	3.	Advice in doing acquisitions and/or joint ventures in order to generate additional growth. 

	 	4.	Advice with regard to management structure and legal matters. 

	 	5.	Advice in developing appropriate accounting/financial metrics and reporting for operational management and business investment purposes. 

	 	6.	Advice in obtaining funding for acquisitions, if needed. 

  
 Term 
  
 The Term of this Agreement commences January 1, 2006 and expires 90 days after either the Company or GP terminates it and notifies in writing the other party of the termination. Any compensation earned but not
yet paid and any expenses incurred but not yet reimbursed as of the termination date will nevertheless be promptly paid to GP. 
  
 Compensation 
  
 In consideration of the Services GP will perform under this Agreement, the Company will pay GP $5,000 per month, payable in arrears in equal installments of $2,500 each on the 15th and 30th of each
month. In addition, the Company agrees to reimburse GP all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by GP in performance of the Services. The foregoing compensation is not intended to fully compensate GP for the value that the Services will bring
to the Company, but the Company will have no obligation to provide any 
  
 Confidential 

 
additional compensation unless the Company decides that the value of the Services is greater than the compensation identified above. The Company understands
that the preferred type of additional compensation for past and future performance would be warrants or common stock representing a fully diluted but significant percentage equity ownership in the Company. 
  
 This represents the entire agreement between us and will be governed by the laws of the State
of Florida without reference to conflict of laws. Please sign below if this accurately represents our Agreement.

 To each of the Purchasers Listed 
 in Schedule I Hereto (the
“Purchasers”) 
  
 Ladies and Gentlemen: 
  
 The undersigned, Unified Western Grocers, Inc., a California corporation (the
“Company” or “Unified”), hereby agrees with you as follows: 
  
 SECTION 1. BACKGROUND; ISSUANCE OF NOTES 
  
 §1.1. Existing Documents. The Company and the Purchasers are parties to the Existing Note Purchase Agreement and the Purchasers are the holders of the Existing Notes. The parties confirm that the
aggregate outstanding principal balance of the Existing Notes on the date hereof is $90,667,215.18 and all accrued interest on the Existing Notes through December 31, 2005 has been paid. The parties have agreed to restructure the maturity,
interest rates and certain other provisions of the Existing Notes, and amend the Existing Note Purchase Agreement, by amending and restating in their entirety the Existing Notes (except the Continuing Notes, which shall not be amended and restated
and the holders of which have consented hereto) (the Existing Notes other than the Continuing Notes being referred to herein as the “Blended Notes”) as part of the Tranche A Notes and the Tranche B Notes provided
for herein and amending and restating the Existing Note Purchase Agreement with this Agreement. 
  
 §1.2. Authorization of the Notes. The Company has duly authorized (a) the issuance of $40,000,000 in aggregate principal
amount of its 7.157% Amended and Restated Senior Secured Notes due 2016 (the “Tranche A Notes”) to be issued under, and substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit A-1 to, this Agreement, and (b) the
issuance and sale of $46,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of its 6.421% Amended and Restated Senior Secured Notes due 2016 (the “Tranche B Notes”) to be issued under, and substantially in the form set forth in
Exhibit A-2 to, this Agreement. The Tranche A Notes, the Tranche B Notes and the Continuing Notes are collectively referred to herein as the “Notes.” 
  
 §1.3. Maturity of and Interest on the Notes. Each
Tranche A Note and each Tranche B Note shall have a stated maturity date of January 1, 2016 (the “New Notes Maturity Date”). The maturity date of the Continuing Notes shall continue to be April 1, 2008 or
October 1, 2009, as set forth in the relevant Note, and any reference therein to the Tranche A 

  

 1 

 
Maturity Date or the Tranche B Maturity Date shall continue to be a reference to those definitions in the Existing Note Purchase Agreement (the
“Continuing Notes Maturity Date”). Each Note shall bear interest and otherwise be in the form and payable as set forth in this Agreement. 
  
 §1.4. Purchase and Sale of the Notes. 
  
 (a) The Company agrees to issue and sell to you the Tranche A Notes and the
Tranche B Notes, and upon and subject to the terms and conditions hereof and in reliance upon the representations and warranties of the Company contained herein, you agree to accept the Tranche A Notes and the Tranche B Notes in consideration of
your (i) surrendering and returning to the Company the Blended Notes, which on the date hereof have an aggregate principal balance of $79,833,812.79, and the Tranche A Notes and the Tranche B Notes shall amend and restate the Blended Notes, and
(ii) funding to the Company, at par, in immediately available funds, the amount of $6,166,187.21. Accordingly, on the Closing Date, the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the Notes shall be $96,833,402.39. The specific amounts of
Tranche A Notes and Tranche B Notes to be purchased by each Purchaser are set forth on Schedule I hereto. The sale and purchase of the Notes shall be held at the offices of Bingham McCutchen LLP (“Purchasers’
Counsel”), Three Embarcadero Center, San Francisco, California 94111, at 10:00 a.m., P.S.T., at a closing (the “Closing”) on January 6, 2006, or on such other Business Day thereafter on or prior to
January 10, 2006, as may be agreed upon by the Company and the Purchasers. 
  
 (b) On the Closing Date, the Company will issue and deliver to you one or more Tranche A Notes and Tranche B Notes registered in your name or the name of your nominee and in the aggregate principal amount or amounts
specified for the applicable Notes opposite your name in Schedule I hereto, duly executed by the manual signature of one of its authorized officers and dated the applicable Closing Date. On the Closing Date, each of the Purchasers
shall surrender to the Company the Blended Note(s) registered in its name or the name of its nominee, and the Company acknowledges at such time the indebtedness represented by the Blended Notes shall thereafter be represented in the Tranche A Notes
and the Tranche B Notes, and each of the Purchasers shall execute any documents reasonably requested by the Company to evidence the restatement of the Blended Notes, the Existing Note Purchase Agreement and the documents executed in connection
therewith. The Company shall cancel each of the Blended Notes surrendered to it in its custody and shall place a legend on the front page of each such Blended Note that the indebtedness and the terms thereof represented by this Note is now set forth
in the Tranche A Notes or Tranche B Notes issued on the Closing Date. 
  
 (c) If on the Closing Date the Company shall fail to tender any of the Notes to you as provided above in this Section 1.4, or any of the conditions specified in Section 2 shall not have been fulfilled to your satisfaction, at your
election you shall be relieved of all obligations under this Agreement without thereby waiving any other rights you may have by reason of such failure or such nonfulfillment. 
  
 §1.5. Use of Proceeds. The proceeds of the sale of the Tranche A Notes and the Tranche B Notes
shall be used by the Company for general corporate purchases.

 §1.6. Terms and Conditions of the Notes. 
  
 (a) Each Tranche A Note issued hereunder shall be substantially in the form
annexed hereto as Exhibit A-1 and shall be due on the New Notes Maturity Date. Each Tranche B Note issued hereunder shall be substantially in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit A-2 and shall be due on the New Notes
Maturity Date. The form of the Continuing Notes shall not be changed and the terms thereof shall remain unchanged except as set forth herein. Each of the Notes shall bear interest from the Closing Date until such Note shall become due and payable in
accordance with the terms thereof or hereof (whether at maturity, by acceleration or otherwise). 
  
 (b) From the Closing Date to the New Notes Maturity Date, the Tranche A Notes shall bear interest at the fixed rate of 7.157% per annum. From the
Closing Date to the New Notes Maturity Date, the Tranche B Notes shall bear interest at the fixed rate of 6.421% per annum. The Continuing Notes with a maturity date of April 1, 2008 shall continue to bear interest at 7.72% per annum,
and the Continuing Notes with a maturity date of October 1, 2009 shall continue to bear interest at 8.71% per annum. Interest on the Notes shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. If the Company shall have
paid or agreed to pay any interest or premium on any of the Notes in excess of that permitted by law, then it is the express intent of the Company and the holder thereof that all excess amounts previously paid or to be paid by the Company be applied
to reduce the principal balance of such Note and that the provisions of such Note immediately be deemed reformed and the amounts thereafter collectable thereunder reduced, without the necessity of the execution of any new document, so as to comply
with the then applicable law but also so as to permit the recovery of the fullest amount otherwise called for thereunder. 
  
 (c) Payment of principal and interest on the Notes shall be as follows: 
  
 (i) Accrued interest on the Tranche A Notes, the Tranche B Notes and the Continuing Notes shall be due and
payable on the first Business Day of each month (each, an “Installment Date”), commencing on the first Installment Date after the Closing Date. Accrued interest on the Blended Notes shall be paid on the first Installment Date
after the Closing Date along with interest accrued on the Tranche A Notes and the Tranche B Notes since the Closing Date. 
  
 (ii) On each Installment Date commencing on the first Installment Date after the Closing Date, the Company will pay equal monthly
installments of principal and accrued interest on the Continuing Notes having a Continuing Notes Maturity Date of April 1, 2008 in the aggregate amount of $106,715.91 (the “Continuing Notes Amortization Payment”) without
payment of the Make-Whole Amount or any premium. 
  
 (iii) All principal of the Continuing Notes having a Continuing Notes Maturity Date of October 1, 2009 shall be due on such date. 
  
 (iv) Commencing on the 61st Installment Date after the Closing Date, the Company will pay equal monthly installments of principal and accrued interest on the 

  

 3 

 
Tranche A Notes in the aggregate amount of $363,051.42 (the “Tranche A Amortization Payment”) without the payment of the Make-Whole
Amount or any premium. 
  
 (v) Commencing on the
61st Installment Date after the Closing Date, the Company will pay equal monthly installments of principal and
interest on the Tranche B Notes in the aggregate amount of $398,714.34 (the “Tranche B Amortization Payment”) without the payment of the Make-Whole Amount or any premium. 
  
 (vi) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
herein or in the Notes, however, the final payment due under the Notes (whether at maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) shall be in an amount sufficient to pay in full all outstanding principal, together with all accrued interest and Make-Whole
Amount due thereon. 
  
 (d) In the event any payment of principal,
Make-Whole Amount, interest or any other sum to be paid by the Company to the Noteholders is not paid when such payment is due, a late charge shall accrue in the amount of two percent (2%) of such overdue sum and shall be due and payable
immediately. If the Company shall fail to pay any sum under any of the Notes when such sum is due, whether upon acceleration, maturity or otherwise, such sum shall bear interest at a rate (the “Overdue Rate”) equal to the
lesser of (i) the maximum interest rate permitted by law and (ii) an interest rate equal to 2% per annum in excess of the interest rate then applicable to such Note. 
  
 (e) Each of the Continuing Notes shall, without the necessity of any further action, be amended on the Closing Date to
reflect that the Continuing Notes are now Notes hereunder. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the term “Agreement” therein shall mean this Agreement and the phrase “U[u]ntil the Release Date” in each Note is hereby
deleted; provided, however, that the terms “Tranche A Maturity Date” and “Tranche B Maturity Date” in the Continuing Notes shall continue to mean April 1, 2008 and October 1, 2009, respectively. 
  
 §1.7. Application of Payments. Each payment on a
Note shall be applied, first, to sums other than principal, interest and Make-Whole Amount, due from the Company to the holder of the Note under the Debt Documents, second, to the payment of accrued interest on such Note to the date of
such payment, and third, to the payment of any principal of and Make-Whole Amount, if any, on such Note then due thereunder. 
  
 §1.8. Security for the Notes. 
  
 (a) The Obligations will be unconditionally secured by the following: (i) Liens on the Unified Personal Property pursuant to the Unified Security
Agreement, (ii) Liens on the Real Property pursuant to the Deeds of Trust, and (iii) pursuant to the Deeds of Trust, an absolute assignment of the rents and profits from the Real Property. Each Subsidiary Guarantor will unconditionally,
absolutely and irrevocably guarantee to the Noteholders the full, prompt and complete payment and performance when due (whether by stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of the Obligations pursuant to its Subsidiary Guaranty. The Subsidiary
Guaranties will be secured by Liens on the Subsidiary Personal Property pursuant to the Subsidiary Security Agreement (and, together with the Unified Security Agreement, the “Security Agreements”). The 

  

 4 

 
Personal Property and the Real Property are collectively referred to herein as the “Property”. The Deeds of Trust and the Security
Agreements run in favor of the Collateral Agent, as collateral agent for the Noteholders pursuant to the Collateral Agency Agreement. The Security Agreements, the Deeds of Trust and the Collateral Agency Agreement, are collectively referred to
herein as the “Security Documents”. All Notes at any time Outstanding shall be equally and ratably secured by the Security Documents and the Liens created thereunder, without preference, priority or distinction on account of
the date or dates or the actual time or times of the issue or maturity of such Notes. 
  
 (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, at the time of the Closing, the Collateral Agent agrees to release its Lien on the Bakery. 
  
 (c) If the Company seeks to sell any of the Real Property, as well as the Improvements and some or all of the Personal Property associated with such Real
Property (such Real Property, Improvements and Personal Property being referred to herein as a “Sale Property”), to a Person which is not an Affiliate of the Borrower or any Subsidiary, and the Company will receive all of the
Net Proceeds Amount of the sale of the Sale Property, the Collateral Agent will (and the Noteholders hereby authorize the Collateral Agent to) release its Lien thereon if all of the following conditions are satisfied: 
  
 (i) on the date of the sale of the Sale Property, no Default
or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would result from the consummation of the sale of the Sale Property; and 
  
 (ii) the amount of the Obligations on such date (after giving effect to any optional prepayment of the Notes from the Net Proceeds Amount
pursuant to the provisions of Section 6.2, including the payment of the Make-Whole Amount) is no greater than 58% of the value of the Property remaining as collateral after the sale of the Sale Property (not including, however, any Property
consisting of equipment located inside any of the Improvements on any of the other Real Property, whether or not such equipment is a fixture), with such value being determined by a third-party appraiser selected by the Required Noteholders.

  
 §1.9. No Set-off or Counterclaim.
Each Noteholder shall be entitled to the principal of and Make-Whole Amount, if any, and interest on any of its Notes free from all equities or rights of set-off or counterclaims of the Company or any prior Noteholder and all Persons may act
accordingly. The receipt by such Noteholder of any payment of principal, Make-Whole Amount or interest shall be a good discharge to the Company for the same, and the Company shall not be bound to inquire into the title of any such Noteholder.

  
 §1.10. Taxes. 
  
 (a) The Company shall make any and all payments hereunder or under the Notes
free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any present or future taxes, assessments, levies, imposts, duties, fees, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect thereto, excluding, in the
case of any Noteholder, business or franchise 

  

 5 

 
taxes, federal or state income taxes, business and occupation taxes payable in lieu of state income taxes or other taxes that are measured by and imposed
upon the Noteholder’s net income or receipts (all such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, duties, fees, deductions, charges, withholdings and liabilities on any and all payments hereunder or under the Notes being hereinafter referred to as
“Taxes”). The Company understands that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Security Documents may not be the Purchasers’ only connections with the states where the Property is located. If the Company
shall be required by law to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder or under any Note to any Noteholder, (i) the sum payable shall be increased to the extent necessary so that after making all required deductions
(including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 1.10) such Noteholder receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Company shall make such deductions
and (iii) the Company shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law. 
  
 (b) In addition, the Company agrees to pay any present or future stamp or documentary taxes or intangible recording taxes or any other excise or property
taxes, charges or similar levies which arise from any payment made hereunder or under the Notes or from the execution or delivery or otherwise with respect to this Agreement (including, without limitation, in respect of a transfer of the Notes
resulting from a change of the Company’s office pursuant to Section 7.9), the Notes or any of the other Debt Documents (hereinafter referred to as “Other Taxes”). 
  
 (c) The Company will indemnify each Noteholder for the full amount of Taxes
or Other Taxes (including, without limitation, any Taxes or Other Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 1.10) paid by any Noteholder, as the case may be, or any liability (including penalties, additions to tax,
interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally asserted. The Company shall pay the amount of any such Taxes or Other Taxes to such Noteholder within thirty
(30) days from the date such Noteholder makes written demand therefor. 
  
 (d) If a written claim for payment is made by any taxing authority against a Noteholder for any Taxes or Other Taxes with respect to which the Company may be liable for indemnity under this Section 1.10 (a
“Tax Claim”), such Noteholder shall give the Company written notice of such Tax Claim as soon as practicable and furnish the Company with copies of such Tax Claim and all other writings received from the taxing authority
relating to such Tax Claim, provided, however, that failure so to notify the Company shall not relieve the Company of any obligation to indemnify such Noteholder under this Section 1.10 except for Taxes or Other Taxes that would
not otherwise have been imposed and the contest of which was effectively precluded as a result of such failure to notify. 
  
 (e) Within thirty (30) days after the date of any payment of Taxes by the Company, the Company will furnish to the Noteholders the original or a
certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof. The Company shall compensate each Noteholder for all reasonable losses and expenses sustained by such Noteholder as a result of any failure by the Company so to furnish such copy of such
receipt.

expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect; 
  
 (b) neither
the Company nor any Subsidiary has knowledge of any facts which would give rise to any claim, public or private, of violation of Environmental Laws or damage to the environment emanating from, occurring on or in any way related to real properties

 (d) having unreasonably small capital with which to engage in anticipated
business; or 
  
 (e) being “insolvent” as defined under

Closing Date are and shall remain, and all subsequently issued Patronage Dividend Certificates shall be and remain, subordinate in right of payment to the Indebtedness of the Company evidenced by this Agreement and the other Debt Documents on the

§3.27. Sophistication of Obligors. The Company and each other Subsidiary Guarantor, by reason of its business and financial
experience, has the capacity to protect its own 

  

 17 

 
interests in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Debt Documents.

 SECTION 6. PREPAYMENT OF THE NOTES 
  
 §6.1. Required Prepayments. 
  
 (a) Scheduled Prepayments. The Company shall make the prepayments of principal on the Notes required by
Section 1.6, without payment of the Make-Whole Amount or any premium. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any Note, however, the final payment due under each Note (whether at maturity, by acceleration or otherwise)
shall be in an amount sufficient to pay in full all outstanding principal thereon together with all accrued interest and premium (if any) due hereon. 
  
 (b) Reduction of Prepayment Amount. Upon any partial prepayment of the Notes pursuant to Section 6.2 or purchase of the Notes permitted by
Section 6.5, the principal amount of each required payment of principal of and accrued interest on the Notes becoming due under this Section 6.1 on and after the date of such prepayment or purchase shall be reduced in the same proportion
as the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Notes is reduced as a result of such prepayment or purchase. 
  
 §6.2. Optional Prepayments with Make-Whole Amount. On and after the first Installment Date following the Closing Date, the
Company may, at its option, upon notice as provided below, prepay at any time all, or from time to time, all or any part of the Notes, in an amount not less than $5,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then Outstanding in the case of a
partial prepayment, at 100% of the principal amount so prepaid, plus interest accrued to the date of prepayment, plus the Make-Whole Amount determined for the prepayment date with respect to such principal amount. If no Default or Event of Default
has occurred and is continuing on both the date of notice and the date of payment, the Company may specify the series (or more than one series) that it will prepay; if a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing on either (or both)
of such dates, then the prepayment shall be applied pro rata to all Notes or otherwise applied as the Noteholders agree. The Company will give each holder of Notes written notice of each optional prepayment under this Section 6.2 not less than
thirty (30) days and not more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for such prepayment. Each such notice shall specify such date, the aggregate principal amount of the Notes to be prepaid on such date, the principal amount of each Note held by
such holder to be prepaid (determined in accordance with Section 6.3), and the interest to be paid on the prepayment date with respect to such principal amount being prepaid, and shall be accompanied by a certificate of a Senior Financial
Officer as to the estimated Make-Whole Amount due in connection with such prepayment (calculated as if the date of such notice were the date of the prepayment), setting forth the details of such computation, which calculation shall be subject to the
approval of the Noteholders. Two Business Days prior to such prepayment, the Company shall deliver to each holder of Notes a certificate of a Senior Financial Officer specifying the calculation of such Make-Whole Amount as of the specified
prepayment date. 
  
 §6.3. Allocation of Partial
Prepayments. In the case of each partial prepayment of the Notes, the principal amount of the Notes to be prepaid shall be allocated among all of the Notes at the time Outstanding in proportion, as nearly as practicable, to the 

  

 24 

 
respective unpaid principal amounts thereof on the Business Day immediately preceding Settlement Date. 
  
 §6.4. Maturity; Surrender,
etc. In the case of each prepayment of Notes pursuant to this Section 6, the principal amount of each Note to be prepaid shall mature and become due and payable on the date fixed for such prepayment, together with
interest on such principal amount accrued to such date and the applicable Make-Whole Amount, if any. From and after such date, unless the Company shall fail to pay such principal amount when so due and payable, together with the interest and
Make-Whole Amount, if any, as aforesaid, interest on such principal amount shall cease to accrue. Any Note paid or prepaid in full shall be surrendered to the Company and cancelled and shall not be reissued, and no Note shall be issued in lieu of
any prepaid principal amount of any Note. 
  
 §6.5.
Purchase of Notes. The Company will not and will not permit any Affiliate to purchase, redeem, prepay or otherwise acquire, directly or indirectly, any of the Outstanding Notes except upon the payment or prepayment of the
Notes in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Notes. The Company will promptly cancel all Notes acquired by it or any Affiliate pursuant to any payment, prepayment or purchase of Notes pursuant to any provision of this Agreement and
no Notes may be issued in substitution or exchange for any such Notes. 
  
 §6.6. Make-Whole Amount. The term “Make-Whole Amount” means, with respect to any Note, an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the Discounted Value of the Remaining Scheduled
Payments with respect to the Called Principal of such Note over the amount of such Called Principal, provided that the Make-Whole Amount may in no event be less than zero. For the purposes of determining the Make-Whole Amount, the following terms
have the following meanings: 
  
 “Called
Principal” means, with respect to any Note, the principal of such Note that is to be prepaid pursuant to Section 6.2 or has become or is declared to be immediately due and payable pursuant to Section 10.1, as the context requires.

  
 “Discounted Value” means, with respect to the
Called Principal of any Note, the amount obtained by discounting all Remaining Scheduled Payments with respect to such Called Principal from their respective scheduled due dates to the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, in
accordance with accepted financial practice and at a discount factor (applied on the same periodic basis as that on which interest on the Notes is payable) equal to the Reinvestment Yield with respect to such Called Principal. 
  
 “Reinvestment Yield” means 0.50% over the yield to maturity
implied by (x) the yields reported, as of 10:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the second Business Day preceding the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, on the display designated as the applicable PX page of the Bloomberg
Financing Markets Service (or such other display as may replace such display) for actively traded U.S. Treasury securities having a maturity equal to the Remaining Average Life of such Called Principal as of such Settlement Date, or (y) if such
yields are not reported as of such time or the yields reported as of such time are not ascertainable, the 

  

 25 

 
Treasury Constant Maturity Series Yields reported, for the latest day for which such yields have been so reported as of the second Business Day preceding the
Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, in Federal Reserve Statistical Release H.15 (519) (or any comparable successor publication) for actively traded U.S. Treasury securities having a constant maturity equal to the Remaining
Average Life of such Called Principal as of such Settlement Date. Such implied yield will be determined, if necessary, by (a) converting U.S. Treasury bill quotations to bond-equivalent yields in accordance with accepted financial practice and
(b) interpolating linearly between (1) the actively traded U.S. Treasury security with the constant maturity closest to and greater than the Remaining Average Life and (2) the actively traded U.S. Treasury security with the constant
maturity closest to and less than the Remaining Average Life. 
  
 “Remaining Average Life” means, with respect to any Called Principal, the number of years (calculated to the nearest one-twelfth year) obtained by dividing (i) such Called Principal into (ii) the sum of the
products obtained by multiplying (a) the principal component of each Remaining Scheduled Payment with respect to such Called Principal by (b) the number of years (calculated to the nearest one-twelfth year) that will elapse between the
Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal and the scheduled due date of such Remaining Scheduled Payment. 
  
 “Remaining Scheduled Payments” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Note, all payments of such Called Principal and
interest thereon that would be due after the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal if no payment of such Called Principal were made prior to its scheduled due date; provided, however, that if such Settlement Date is not a date on
which interest payments are due to be made under the terms of the Notes, then the amount of the next succeeding scheduled interest payment will be reduced by the amount of interest accrued to such Settlement Date and required to be paid on such
Settlement Date pursuant to this Section 6 or Section 10.1. 
  
 “Settlement Date” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Note, the date on which such Called Principal is to be prepaid pursuant to Section 6.2 or has become or is declared to be immediately due and payable
pursuant to Section 10.1, as the context requires. 
  
 §6.7. Restrictions on Prepayment. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 6, there shall be no prepayment, in whole or in part, of the principal of all or any of the Notes. The Company
waives any right to prepay the Notes except under the terms and conditions as set forth in this Section 6 and agrees that if the Notes are prepaid pursuant to Section 6.2, the Company will pay the Make-Whole Amount. The Company hereby
acknowledges that the inclusion of this waiver of prepayment rights and agreement to pay the Make-Whole Amount upon prepayment of the Notes pursuant to Section 6.2 was separately negotiated with the Purchasers, that the economic value of the
various elements of this waiver and agreement was discussed, that the consideration given by the Company for the Notes was adjusted to reflect the specific waiver and agreement negotiated between the Company and the Purchasers and contained herein,
and that this waiver is intended to comply with California Civil Code Section 2954.10. 
  

 26 

 SECTION 7. AFFIRMATIVE COVENANTS 
  
 The Company covenants that so long as any of the Notes are outstanding: 
  
 §7.1. Compliance with Law. The
Company will and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to comply with all laws, ordinances or governmental rules or regulations to which each of them is subject, including, without limitation, Environmental Laws, and will obtain and maintain in effect
all licenses, certificates, permits, franchises, patents, trademarks, service marks, trade names, copyrights, design patents and other governmental authorizations necessary to the ownership of their respective properties or to the conduct of their
respective businesses, in each case to the extent necessary to ensure that noncompliance with such laws, ordinances or governmental rules or regulations or failures to obtain or maintain in effect such licenses, certificates, permits, franchises and
other governmental authorizations could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
  
 §7.2. Insurance. 
  
 (a) The Company will, and, at all times during the term hereof, will cause each of its Subsidiaries to maintain, with financially sound and reputable
insurers, insurance with respect to their respective properties and businesses against such casualties and contingencies, of such types, on such terms and in such amounts (including deductibles, coinsurance and self-insurance, if adequate reserves
are maintained with respect thereto) as is customary in the case of entities of established reputations engaged in the same or a similar business and similarly situated. 
  
 (b) The Company will maintain, or cause to be maintained, in full force and effect, with such insurers, amounts, coverages
and forms reasonably satisfactory to and approved by the Noteholders, insurance as follows: 
  
 (i) Required Insurance Coverages and Limits. The Company agrees that it will at its own cost and expense and at all times during
the term carry and maintain or cause to be carried and maintained: 
  
 (A) Casualty Insurance — “all risk” property insurance on the Property in an amount not less than the full replacement cost of the Property (without regard to depreciation), which coverage shall
include, without limitation, flood insurance (for any Real Property located in a 100-year flood plain) and earthquake insurance, but (in either case) only to the extent that such coverage is generally available at commercially practicable rates;

  
 (B) Liability Insurance —
comprehensive general liability insurance (including, without limitation, blanket contractual, personal injury, XCU hazards, products/completed operations, independent contractors, and broad form property damage) applicable to the Property in such
amounts as from time to time are usually carried by organizations similar to the Company owning or leasing and operating similar properties in similar locations; provided, however, that the Company shall be required to carry and maintain 

  

 27 

 
liability insurance applicable to the Real Property in a minimum amount equal to $50,000,000 aggregate/$1,000,000 per occurrence; 
  
 (C) Worker’s Compensation — worker’s
compensation insurance with respect to employees of the Company sufficient to meet the statutory requirements of all states where the Real Property is located; and 
  
 (D) Other Insurance — such other insurance with respect to the Company’s property and
business of such a nature, with such terms and in such amounts, as a prudent person with the Company’s financial resources would maintain with respect to similar properties and a similar business, and, in any event, insurance on all its
property of a character usually insured by corporations engaged in the same or a similar business similarly situated against loss or damage of the kinds and in the amounts customarily insured against and for by such corporations. 
  
 (ii) Insurance Terms. All the insurance policies
required pursuant to Section 7.2(b) above shall be subject to such deductible amounts and retentions as are usual and customary for entities similar to the Company owning or leasing and operating similar properties, but in no event greater than
reasonably acceptable to the Noteholders. 
  
 (iii) Additional Insureds; Loss Payees. All insurance hereunder shall name the Noteholders and such other parties (with an insurable interest) as the Noteholders may designate as additional insureds as their respective interests may
appear. All insurance referred to in clause (b)(i)(A) above shall name the Collateral Agent as loss payee. The Company agrees to effect all insurance provided for in this Section 7.2 with financially sound and responsible insurance companies
legally qualified to issue insurance in all states where the Property is located and reasonably acceptable to the Noteholders. All such policies referred to in clauses (a), (b)(i)(A) and (b)(i)(B), as the case may be, shall (i) provide that the
same shall not be cancelled, materially modified or terminated without at least thirty (30) days’ (or ten (10) days’ in the case of nonpayment of premium) prior written notice to each insured and each loss payee named therein,
(ii) provide for at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to each insured and each loss payee named therein of the date on which such policies shall terminate by lapse of time if not renewed, (iii) contain a
breach-of-warranty clause providing that the respective interests of the Noteholders or any other additional insured or loss payee shall not be invalidated by any action or inaction of the Company or any other Person, (iv) insure the
Noteholders and any other additional insured or loss payee regardless of any breach or violation by the Company or any other Person of any warranties, declarations, or conditions contained in the policies related to such insurance, (v) except
for the insurance referred to in clause (b)(i)(D) above, provide that the insurer thereunder waives all right of subrogation against the Noteholders and waives any right of set-off or counterclaim and any other right of deduction whether by
attachment or otherwise, and (vi) be primary without right of contribution from any other insurance carried by or on behalf of any Noteholder with respect to any interest in the Property. No Noteholder shall, by reason of accepting, rejecting,
approving or obtaining insurance incur any liability for the existence, nonexistence, form or legal sufficiency thereof, the solvency of any insurer, or the payment of any losses. 
  

 28 

 (iv) Certificate. On or prior to the Closing Date, and not less than five
(5) days prior to the expiration dates of the expiring policies required pursuant to this Section 7.2, the Company shall deliver to you certificates of insurance issued by the insurers thereunder or by an insurance broker authorized to
bind such insurers evidencing the insurance maintained pursuant to this Section 7.2. 
  
 (v) Performance by Noteholders. In the event that the Company fails to maintain insurance as herein provided, the Noteholders may
at their option, but without obligation, and upon not less than five (5) Business Days’ notice to the Company, provide such insurance and, in such event, the Company shall, upon demand from time to time, reimburse the Noteholders for the
cost thereof, together with interest at the Overdue Rate on such cost from the date of payment of such cost to the date of reimbursement. 
  
 (vi) Proceeds. The amount collected under any such insurance policies maintained pursuant to this Section 7.2 shall be
distributed or applied in accordance with the terms and provisions of this Agreement, the Security Agreements or the Deeds of Trust, as applicable. 
  
 (vii) Separate Insurance. Nothing in this Section 7.2 shall be construed to prohibit any Noteholder from insuring at its own
expense its interest therein, and any insurance so maintained shall not provide for or result in a reduction of the coverage or the amounts payable under any of the insurance required to be maintained by the Company under this Section 7.2.

  
 §7.3. Maintenance of Properties.

  
 (a) Generally. The Company will and will cause each
of its Subsidiaries to maintain and keep, or cause to be maintained and kept, their respective properties in good repair, working order and condition (other than ordinary wear and tear), so that the business carried on in connection therewith may be
properly conducted at all times, provided that this Section 7.3 shall not prevent the Company or any Subsidiary from discontinuing the operation and the maintenance of any of its properties if such discontinuance is desirable in the conduct of
its business and the Company has concluded that such discontinuance could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
  
 (b) Maintenance of the Property. With respect to the Property specifically, the Company shall: 
  
 (i) to keep the Property in good condition and repair
(reasonable wear and tear excepted); 
  
 (ii)
subject to Section 8.4, not to remove or demolish material structures on the Property; 
  
 (iii) to complete or restore promptly and in good and workmanlike manner the Property or any part thereof which may be damaged or
destroyed (provided, that, in the case of an insured loss, any insurance proceeds are made available by the Collateral Agent in 

  

 29 

 
accordance with the terms and conditions of the applicable Deed of Trust) unless the part thereof so damaged or destroyed is obsolete or no longer used by
the Company in the operation of its business and the failure to complete or restore such part of the Property will not result in a Material reduction in the value of the Property; 
  
 (iv) except as are being contested under Section 8.5, to pay when due all material claims for work
performed and for materials furnished on or to the Real Property, and to promptly pay any and all Liens arising out of or resulting from work performed or materials supplied on or to the Real Property; 
  
 (v) to comply in all Material respects with and not suffer
any Material violations of (A) any and all laws, ordinances, regulations and standards, including, but not limited to, all Environmental Laws, (B) any and all covenants, conditions, restrictions and equitable servitudes, whether public or
private, of every kind and character, and (C) all requirements of insurance companies and any bureau or agency which establishes standards of insurability, which laws, covenants or requirements affect the Property and pertain to acts committed
or conditions existing thereon, including, without limitation, such work of alteration, improvement or demolition as such laws, covenants or requirements mandate; 
  
 (vi) not to commit or permit waste of the Property or any material part thereof; 
  
 (vii) to perform in all Material respects all obligations
required to be performed in any leases, conditional sales contracts or like agreements affecting all or any portion of the Property or the operation, occupation or use thereof; and 
  
 (viii) to make no further assignment of rents of the Property. 
  
 (c) The Company shall execute and, where appropriate, acknowledge and deliver
such further instruments as the Noteholders reasonably deem necessary or appropriate to continue or perfect the security provided by the Security Documents. 
  
 (d) The Company shall not seek, make or consent to any agreements, restrictions or change in the zoning or conditions of use of the Property that would be
binding on the successors or assigns of the Company or that would affect the ability of the Company to continue to use the Property for substantially the same purposes as presently used without the prior written consent of the Noteholders, which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed if such agreements, restrictions and changes do not affect the priority or materially impair the value of the Noteholders’ security under the Security Documents. The Company shall comply, in
all Material respects, with and make all payments required under the provisions of any covenants, conditions or restrictions affecting the Property. The Company shall comply with all existing and future requirements of all Governmental Authorities
having jurisdiction over all or any portion of the Property unless the requirement is being properly contested or failure to comply will not have a Material Adverse Effect. 
  

 30 

 §7.4. Payment of Taxes and Claims. 
  
 (a) The Company will and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to file all
material tax returns required to be filed in any jurisdiction and to pay and discharge all taxes shown to be due and payable on such returns and all other taxes, assessments, governmental charges, or levies imposed on them or any of their
properties, assets, income or franchises, to the extent such taxes and assessments have become due and payable and before they have become delinquent and all claims for which sums have become due and payable that have or might become a Lien on
properties or assets of the Company or any Subsidiary, provided that neither the Company nor any Subsidiary need pay any such tax or assessment or claims if (i) the amount, applicability or validity thereof is contested by the Company or such
Subsidiary on a timely basis in good faith and in appropriate proceedings, and the Company or a Subsidiary has established adequate reserves therefor in accordance with GAAP on the books of the Company or such Subsidiary or (ii) the nonpayment
of all such taxes and assessments in the aggregate could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
  
 (b) The Company will pay and discharge promptly after notice and prior to delinquency, all taxes, assessments, levies, imposts, duties, fees and charges
imposed by any federal, state or Local Government authority upon any Noteholder by reason of its interest in the Property created hereby, under any of the Security Documents or by reason of any payment, or portion thereof, made to any Noteholder
hereunder; provided, however, that the Company shall not have any obligation to pay or discharge any Noteholder’s business or franchise taxes, federal or state income taxes, business and occupation taxes payable in lieu of state income taxes or
other taxes that are measured by and imposed upon the Noteholder’s net income or receipts. 
  
 (c) The Company will pay and discharge promptly all lawful claims of materialmen, mechanics, carriers, warehousemen, landlords and other similar Persons
for labor, materials, supplies and rentals that, if unpaid, might by law become a Lien upon all or a portion of the Property or any of its other property; provided, however, that none of the foregoing need be paid while the same is being contested
in good faith by appropriate proceedings diligently conducted in accordance with the conditions of Section 8.5. 
  
 §7.5. Corporate Existence, Designation of Subsidiaries, etc. Subject to Section 8.2, (a) the
Company will, and shall cause each of the Subsidiary Guarantors to, take and fulfill, or cause to be taken and fulfilled, all actions and conditions necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its existence, rights and privileges as a
corporation and will not liquidate or dissolve, and it will take and fulfill, or cause to be taken and fulfilled, all actions and conditions necessary to qualify, and to preserve and keep in full force and effect its qualification, to do business as
a foreign corporation in the jurisdictions in which the conduct of its business or the ownership or leasing of its properties requires such qualification and the failure so to qualify would have a Material Adverse Effect; provided, however, that the
Company will at all times preserve and keep in full force and effect the corporate existence of each of its Subsidiary Guarantors and all rights and franchises of the Company and its Subsidiaries unless, in the good faith judgment of the Company,
the termination of or failure to preserve and keep in full force and effect such corporate existence, right or franchise could not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect. 
  

 31 

 §7.6. Keeping of Records and Books of Account. The Company shall keep, and
cause each of its Subsidiaries to keep, adequate records and books of accounts, in which complete entries will be made and which in the case of financial statements referred to in Section 5.1 will be prepared (except as otherwise expressly
provided in this Agreement) in accordance with GAAP, consistently applied. 
  
 §7.7. ERISA.

terminated, and the liabilities thereof discharged, in accordance with applicable law. 
  
 (b) No Pension Plan will have any “accumulated funding deficiency” (within the meaning of Section 412 of the Code), which deficiency could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

  
 §7.8. Additional Subsidiary
Guarantors. In the event that (a) the Company creates, acquires or capitalizes (directly or indirectly) any Subsidiary after the Closing Date with assets in excess of $250,000 (excluding the Financial Subsidiaries and the Insurance
Subsidiaries), (b) any existing Subsidiary which is not a Subsidiary Guarantor acquires total assets in excess of $250,000 (excluding the Financial Subsidiaries and the Insurance Subsidiaries), or (c) any other Subsidiary is required to
guarantee the Operating Line of Credit, the Company shall cause such Subsidiary to execute a Subsidiary Guaranty and a Subsidiary Security Agreement. Thereafter, said Subsidiary shall be a Subsidiary Guarantor for all purposes of the Debt Documents.

  
 §7.9. Maintenance of Office. The Company
will maintain at the office located at the address for notices to the Company provided in Section 16 an office where notices, presentations and demands in respect of this Agreement, the Notes and the other Debt Documents may be given to and
made upon them; provided, however, that the Company may, upon fifteen (15) Business Days’ prior written notice to the Noteholders, move such office to any other location within the United States of America. 
  
 §7.10. Change in Name or Jurisdiction of
Organization. The Company shall not, and shall cause each Subsidiary Guarantor not to, change its name or jurisdiction of organization unless and until it has (a) delivered written notice of each such change to the Noteholders not less
than fifteen (15) Business Days before such change is to take effect and (b) in connection with any such change, caused to be completed and executed/authenticated by the Company or such Subsidiaries such instruments and documents as may be
requested by the Noteholders and as are deemed by the Noteholders to be necessary or desirable to perfect, preserve or protect the Liens created or intended to be created by the Security Documents, or to obtain for the Noteholders the full benefit
of the specific rights herein and therein granted, including, without limitation, the authorization of Uniform Commercial Code financing statements, continuation statements or amendments with respect thereto, or similar instruments relating to the
perfection of the mortgages, Liens, security interests or assignments created or 

  

 32 

 
intended to be created by the Security Documents. To the extent any of the foregoing documents do not have to be executed or authenticated by the Company,
the company hereby authorizes the Collateral Agent to file or record the same to reflect the change made. All fees, costs and expenses in connection with the foregoing shall be the sole responsibility of the Company. 
  
 §7.11. Indemnification. 
  
 (a) Except as provided in subsection (c) below, the Company will defend,
protect, indemnify and hold harmless each Noteholder, its directors, officers, employees and agents and each Person, if any, who controls such Noteholder within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act (any and all of whom are referred
to as the “Indemnified Party”) against, and will protect, save and hold harmless each Indemnified Party from and against, any and all claims, demands, loss, damage, liability (joint or several), expense or cost (including all
legal fees or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with the preparation for or defense of any pending or threatened claim, action or proceeding, whether or not resulting in any liability) imposed on, incurred by
or asserted against such Indemnified Party (whether or not such Indemnified Party is a party thereto) under any applicable federal or state law or otherwise caused by or arising out of, or allegedly caused by or arising out of (i) the Property
or any part thereof, (ii) this Agreement and any amendments, modifications, consents or supplements hereto or any transaction contemplated hereby, other than losses, claims, damages or liabilities resulting from any misrepresentation made by
such Noteholder in Section 4, (iii) the other Debt Documents and any amendments, modifications, consents or supplements to any thereof, or any action or inaction by the Company in connection with any thereof, (iv) the enforcement of
any agreement, restriction or legal requirement affecting the Property or any part thereof, (v) any Default or Event of Default, or (vi) the design, construction, financing, mortgaging, construction, purchase, sale, acceptance, rejection,
ownership, acquisition, delivery, non-delivery, shipment, lease, sublease, rental, preparation, possession, use, non-use, operation, condition, maintenance, repair, restoration, modification, storage, transportation, transfer of title, abandonment,
return, or any application, disposition or transfer of all or any part of the Property or the imposition of any Lien (or incurrence of any liability to refund or pay over any amount as a result of such Lien) on the Property or any interest therein.

  
 (b) The matters covered by the indemnification provided for in
subsection (a) above shall include, without limitation, any claim or penalty arising from (i) violations of laws, or in tort (by application of the doctrine of strict liability or otherwise), (ii) the active or passive negligence of
any Indemnified Party, (iii) latent or other defects, whether or not discoverable by such Indemnified Party, the Company or any other Person, (iv) loss of or damage to any property or the environment, (v) violation of any
Environmental Law or the presence of any Hazardous Material or other waste on all or any portion of the Property, (vi) death of or injury to any person and (vii) any claim for patent, trademark or copyright infringement. In addition, each
Indemnified Party shall be entitled to indemnity hereunder whether such indemnity arises because of an act or omission by such Indemnified Party (subject to subsection (c) below) or otherwise, whether or not the claims giving rise to indemnity
hereunder are also indemnified against by any other Person under any other document, and whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated. 
  

 33 

 (c) Notwithstanding any of the indemnities set forth above, the Company shall not be required to
indemnify any Indemnified Party for any loss, damage, liability, cost or expense arising from (i) the willful misconduct or gross negligence of such Indemnified Party or (ii) such Indemnified Party’s business or franchise taxes,
federal or state income taxes, business and occupation taxes payable in lieu of state income taxes or other taxes that are measured by and imposed upon such Indemnified Party’s net income or receipts; and 
  
 (d) Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Party of notice of any claim,
action or proceeding with respect to which an Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnity hereunder, such Indemnified Party will notify the Company of such claim or the commencement of such action or proceeding; provided, however, that the failure of
an Indemnified Party to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the Company of its obligations under this Section 7.11 with respect to such Indemnified Party, except to the extent that the Company is actually prejudiced by such
failure. The Company will assume the defense of such claim, action or proceeding and will employ counsel satisfactory to the Indemnified Party and will pay the fees and expenses of such counsel. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, the
Indemnified Party will be entitled, at the expense of the Company, to employ counsel separate from counsel for the Company and for any other party in such action if the Indemnified Party reasonably determines that a conflict of interest or other
reasonable basis exists which makes representation by counsel chosen by the Company not advisable. In the event an Indemnified Party (or any of its officers, directors or employees) appears as a witness in any action or proceeding brought against
the Company in which an Indemnified Party is not named as a defendant, the Company agrees to reimburse such Indemnified Party for all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by it (including fees and expenses of counsel) in connection with its appearing as
a witness. The obligations of the Company under this Section 7.11 shall survive the payment or prepayment of the Notes, the termination of this Agreement, and the reconveyance of the Deeds of Trust. 
  
 §7.12. Anti-Terrorism Order. Neither the Company nor any
of its Subsidiaries (a) will knowingly become a blocked person described in Section 1 of the Anti-Terrorism Order, or (b) will knowingly engage in any dealing or transactions, or be otherwise associated, with any such blocked person.

to the reasonable requirements of the Company’s or such Subsidiary’s business and upon fair and reasonable terms no less favorable to the Company or such Subsidiary than would be obtainable in an arm’s-length transaction with a Person
not an Affiliate of the Company or a Subsidiary that is reasonably comparable to the Affiliate transaction, based on the totality of the applicable circumstances. 
  

 34 

 §8.2. Consolidation and Merger. The Company will not (a) change its form of

Company is obtained, such judgment shall be fully paid or discharged within ten (10) days after the entry of such judgment. 
  
 (b) Upon demand by the Noteholders, the Company shall defend, indemnify and hold the Noteholders harmless against any obligation or claim described in
Section 8.5(a) above so contested by the Company, and upon demand by the Noteholders, the Company shall make suitable provision by payment to the Noteholders or by posting a bond or other security satisfactory to the Noteholders for the
possibility that the contest will be unsuccessful, including, if the Noteholders request, a bond equal to one and one half times the amount of such mechanics’ or materialmen’s liens. Such provision shall be made within ten (10) days
after demand therefor and, if made by payment of funds to the Noteholders, the amount so deposited, with all earnings thereon, shall be disbursed in accordance with the resolution of the contest either to the Company or the adverse claimant. If the
Company fails to post a suitable bond or other acceptable security as provided, the Noteholders may remove or pay such Lien at the expense of the Company. Notwithstanding anything in the foregoing to the contrary, if the Lien to be contested is
senior to the Lien of any Deed of Trust, the Company shall, within ten (10) days after the Noteholders’ demand, remove or pay such Lien, and, if the Company shall fail to do so, the Noteholders may do so at the expense of the Company, and
any amount so advanced by the Noteholders will be secured by the Security Documents.

of the Company to the Company or to another Subsidiary of the Company, but otherwise including, without limitation, any Permitted Member Payment or Required Permitted Redemptions, if (i) a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing or (ii) the making of such Restricted Payment would result in the occurrence of a Default or Event of Default. Except for Required Permitted Redemptions, the Company will not redeem any Class B Shares without the prior written

capital of the Insurance Subsidiaries as such policy is established from time to time by the Board of Directors of the Company; provided, however, that the Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries, to make any such Investments
if as of the date of any such Investment and after giving effect to such Investment the Company and its consolidated Subsidiaries would fail to comply with any of the other financial covenants set forth in this Section 8.6. 
  
 (j) Mandatory Maintenance and Capital Expenditures. The Company shall
make Maintenance and Capital Expenditures for the Property in each Fiscal Year in an amount not less than $10,000,000. 
  

 39 

 (k) Change in Accounting Principles. If, after the date of this Agreement, there shall occur any
change in GAAP principles, rules or definitions from those principles, rules or definitions used in the preparation of the financial statements referred to in Section 3.5 hereof and such change shall result in a change in the method of
calculation of any financial covenant, standard or term found in this Agreement, either the Company or the Required Noteholders may by notice to the Noteholders and the Company, respectively, require that the Noteholders and the Company negotiate in
good faith to amend such covenants, standards and term so as equitably to reflect such change in accounting principles, with the desired result being that the criteria for evaluating the financial condition of the Company and its Subsidiaries shall
be the same as if such change had not been made. No delay by the Company or the Required Noteholders in requiring such negotiation shall limit their right to so require such a negotiation at any time after such a change in accounting principles.
Until any such covenant, standard or term is amended in accordance with this Section 8.6(k), financial covenants shall be computed and determined in accordance with GAAP in effect prior to such change in accounting principles. 
  
 §8.7. Maintenance of Business. The
Company will not, and will not permit any Subsidiary to, engage in any business other than the manufacture, processing and wholesale and retail distribution and sale of grocery and other food and non-food goods and the provision of financial,
insurance and other services to its customers. 
  
 §8.8. Tax Consolidation. The Company will not, and will not permit any Subsidiary to, file or consent to the filing of any consolidated tax return with any other Person other than the Company and its

 SECTION 10. REMEDIES ON DEFAULT,
ETC. 
  
 §10.1. Acceleration.

  
 (a) If an Event of Default with respect to the Company
described in paragraph (h) or (i) of Section 9 (other than an Event of Default described in clause (i) of paragraph (h) or described in clause (vi) of paragraph (h) by virtue of the fact that such clause
encompasses clause (i) of paragraph (h)) has occurred, all the Notes then outstanding shall automatically become immediately due and payable. 
  
 (b) If any other Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Required Noteholders may at any time at its or their option, by notice or notices to
the Company, declare all the Notes then outstanding to be immediately due and payable. 
  
 (c) If any Event of Default described in paragraph (a), (b), (c) or (d) of Section 9 has occurred and is continuing, any holder or holders of Notes at the time outstanding affected by such Event of
Default may at any time, at its or their option, by notice or notices to the Company, declare all the Notes held by it or them to be immediately due and payable. 
  
 Upon any Notes becoming due and payable under this Section 10.1, whether automatically or by declaration, such Notes will forthwith
mature and the entire unpaid principal amount of such Notes, plus (A) all accrued and unpaid interest thereon and (B) the Make-Whole Amount determined in respect of such principal amount (to the full extent permitted by applicable law),

acceleration of the Notes pursuant to 

  

 43 

 
this Section 10.1 shall be made by the Noteholders as of the Settlement Date. The Company hereby acknowledges that its agreement to pay the Make-Whole
Amount if the Notes are accelerated under this Section 10.1 was separately negotiated with the Purchasers, that the economic value of the various elements of this waiver and agreement was discussed, that the consideration given by the Company
for the Notes was adjusted to reflect the specific waiver and agreement negotiated between the Company and the Purchasers and contained herein, and that this waiver is intended to comply state laws comparable to California Civil Code
Section 2954.10. 
  
 §10.2. Remedies Upon
an Event of Default. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder and the acceleration of the Notes pursuant to Section 10.1, the Noteholders may, at their option, either on their own behalf or through the
Collateral Agent, and in addition to all other rights and remedies available to the Noteholders, without further notice to the Company, do any one or more of the following: 
  
 (a) proceed to protect and enforce the rights, privileges and remedies granted to it by this Agreement, the Notes, the
Environmental Indemnity Agreement and the Security Documents by such judicial proceedings as the Noteholders shall deem necessary or appropriate, either at law, in equity, in bankruptcy or otherwise, whether for specific enforcement of any covenant
or agreement contained in the Notes, this Agreement, the Environmental Indemnity Agreement and the Security Documents or in aid of the exercise of any right, power, privilege or remedy therein or herein granted; 
  
 (b) Foreclose or otherwise enforce the Collateral Agent’s security
interest in any manner permitted by law, or provided for in this Agreement, and exercise at any time all rights and remedies of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code in effect in the states where the respective Property is located, or

hereunder or under the other Debt Documents; 
  
 (c) Enter onto
property where any Personal Property is located and take peaceful possession thereof with or without judicial action; 
  
 (d) Prior to the disposition of the Property, store, process, repair or recondition it or otherwise prepare it for disposition in any manner and to the
extent the Noteholders deem appropriate and in connection with such preparation and disposition, without charge, use any copyright, patent, technical process, permit, approval, license, consent or governmental approval used or held by the Company;

  
 (e) Demand, sue for, collect or receive any money or property
at any time payable to or receivable by the Company on account of or in exchange for any part of the Property; 
  
 (f) Secure the appointment of a receiver in accordance with applicable law;

Document; and 
  
 (h) Take any other action and seek any other
remedy available to a secured party under the law. 
  
 §10.3. Waiver of Appraisement, Valuation, etc. To the full extent it may lawfully do so, the Company, for itself and for any other Person who may claim through or under it, hereby (a) agrees that
neither it nor any such Person will set up, plead, claim or in any manner whatsoever take advantage of, any appraisal, valuation, stay, moratorium, extension or redemption laws, now or hereafter in force, or any rights of marshalling in the event of
any sale of the Property or any part thereof or any interest therein, (b) waives all benefit or advantage of any such laws and waives and releases any and all such rights and covenants not to hinder, delay or impede the exercise of any right or
remedy permitted herein, in the Security Agreements or in the Deeds of Trust but to suffer and permit every such right or remedy as though no such laws were in effect, (c) consents and agrees that the Property may be sold by the Noteholders as
an entirety or in parts and (d) agrees that it will neither claim, demand or otherwise be entitled to any credit against or deduction from the principal of or Make-Whole Amount, if any, or interest on the Notes or any other sums which may
become payable under the terms of this Agreement or any other Debt Documents by reason of the payment of any tax, assessment or other municipal or governmental charge or imposition on or relating to the Property or any part thereof, nor claim or
otherwise be entitled to any deduction from the taxable or assessed value of the Property or any part thereof by reason of this Agreement or any other Debt Document. 
  
 §10.4. Waiver of Marshaling and Other Defenses. The Company hereby (a) waives
any and all rights of marshaling and specifically agrees that in the event of foreclosure, whether by action or advertisement, all of the Property and all interests in the Property may, at the option of the Noteholders, be sold together, in a single
sale, and (b) agrees that the Lien of the Security Documents as to the interests of the Company will not be released, impaired or subordinated by any amendment to or termination of any Debt Document, any extension of time or waiver of right or
remedy under any Debt Document, or any other act, inaction or thing (except only a written amendment or termination of a Debt Document signed by all parties thereto that expressly releases, impairs or subordinates such Lien) which, but for this
provision, would so release, impair or subordinate. 
  
 §10.5. Rescission of Acceleration. If (a) the outstanding principal amount of the Notes shall have become immediately due and payable, (b) no judgment or decree for any amounts so becoming
due and payable shall have been entered, (c) all amounts of principal, Make-Whole Amount, if any, interest which shall have become due and payable in respect of all of the Notes otherwise than pursuant to any acceleration shall have been paid
in full, including interest on all overdue principal, Make-Whole Amount, if any, and (to the extent permitted by applicable law) interest at the applicable rate or rates provided for in the Notes, (d) the Noteholders shall have been paid an
amount sufficient to cover all costs and expenses of collection incurred by or on behalf of the Noteholders (including, without limitation, reasonable counsel fees and expenses), (e) all other Obligations then due and owing shall have been paid
in full, and (f) every other Event of Default shall have been remedied or waived to the satisfaction 

  

 45 

 
of the Noteholders, then the Required Noteholders may, by written notice or notices to the Company, rescind and annul any acceleration of the Notes and its
consequences, but no such rescission and annulment shall extend to or affect any subsequent Default or Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon, or shall require any Noteholder to repay any interest, principal or Make-Whole Amount
actually paid as a result of such acceleration. 
  
 §10.6. Remedies Cumulative. Each and every right, power and remedy herein or in the Security Documents specifically given to the Noteholders or otherwise in this Agreement shall be cumulative and
shall be in addition to every other right, power and remedy herein or in the Security Documents specifically given or now or hereafter existing at law, in equity or by statute or otherwise, and each and every right, power and remedy whether
specifically herein given or otherwise existing may be exercised from time to time and as often and in such order as may be deemed expedient by the Noteholders, and the exercise or the beginning of the exercise of any right, power or remedy shall
not be construed to be a waiver of the right to exercise at the same time or thereafter any other right, power or remedy. No delay or omission by the Noteholders in the exercise of any right, power or remedy or in the pursuance of any remedy shall
impair any such right, power or remedy or be construed to be a waiver of any default on the part of the Company or to be an acquiescence therein. 
  
 §10.7. Discontinuance of Proceedings. If the Noteholders shall have proceeded to enforce any right, power or
remedy under the Security Documents by foreclosure, entry or otherwise, and such proceedings shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason or shall have been determined adversely to the Noteholders, then, and in every such case, the
Company and the Noteholders shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder and under the Security Documents with respect to the Property, and all rights, powers and remedies of the Noteholders shall continue as if no such
proceedings had been taken. 
  
 §10.8. Costs and
Expenses, Attorneys’ Fees, etc. of the Noteholders. The Company shall pay all reasonable costs, fees and expenses of the Noteholders, their agents and counsel in connection with the enforcement of their rights hereunder
and under the other Debt Documents, including, without limitation, (a) all such reasonable costs, fees and expenses incurred in connection with any “workout” or restructuring affecting the Debt Documents or any bankruptcy or similar
proceeding involving the Company, and (b) the reasonable cost of any trustee’s sale guaranty or other title insurance coverage ordered in connection with any foreclosure proceedings hereunder, and shall pay all Taxes or other governmental
charges or impositions imposed on the Noteholders by reason of their interest in the Notes, this Agreement, the Security Documents or the Property. The Company shall pay to the Noteholders on demand any reasonable costs and expenses, including
reasonable attorneys fees and expenses, paid or incurred by the Noteholders in connection with the collection of any amount payable by the Company to the Noteholders hereunder, whether or not any legal proceeding is commenced hereunder and whether
or not any Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and is continuing, together with interest thereon at the Overdue Rate from the date of payment or incurring by the Noteholders until paid by the Company. 
  
 §10.9. No Waiver, etc. No failure by the
Noteholders to insist upon the strict performance of any term hereof or under the Security Documents or any other Debt Document, 

  

 46 

 
or to exercise any right, power or remedy consequent upon a breach hereof or thereof, shall constitute a waiver of any such term or of any such breach. No
waiver of any breach shall affect or alter this Agreement or the Security Documents, which shall continue in full force and effect with respect to any other then existing or subsequent breach. No waiver by the Noteholders of any Default or Event of
Default shall be deemed to be a waiver of any other or similar, previous or subsequent Default or Event of Default. By accepting payment of any amount secured by the Security Documents after its due date, the Noteholders shall not be deemed to waive
their right either to require prompt payment when due of all other amounts payable hereunder or under the Security Documents or any other Debt Document or to declare a default for failure to effect such prompt payment. 
  
 §10.10. Compromise of Actions,
etc. Any action, suit or proceeding brought by the Noteholders (either directly or through the Collateral Agent) pursuant to any of the terms of this Agreement, the Security Documents or otherwise, and any claim made by
the Noteholders hereunder or thereunder, may be compromised, withdrawn or otherwise dealt with by the Noteholders (either directly or through the Collateral Agent) upon notice to, but without approval of, the Company. 
  
 §10.11. Right of the Noteholders to Perform the
Company’s Covenants, etc. If (a) the Company shall fail to make any payment or perform any act required to be made or performed by the Company hereunder or under the Notes or the Security Documents or the other
Debt Documents which failure would constitute an Default or Event of Default, or (b) any action or proceeding is commenced that has or could have a materially adverse effect on the Noteholders’ interest in all or a portion of the Property
or any part thereof, the Noteholders (either directly or through the Collateral Agent) with notice to, but without demand upon, the Company, and without waiving or releasing any Obligation, Default or Event of Default, may at any time thereafter
make such appearances or such payment or perform such act for the account and at the expense of the Company, and may enter upon the Property for such purpose, and take all such action thereon as, in the Noteholders’ opinion, may be necessary or
appropriate therefor, including, without limitation, payment, purchase, contest or compromise of any Lien that in the judgment of the Noteholders appears to be prior or superior to the Lien of the Security Documents. No such entry and no such action
shall be deemed an eviction of any lessee of the Property or any part thereof. All sums so paid by the Noteholders and all reasonable costs and expenses, (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) so incurred,
together with interest thereon at the Overdue Rate from the date of payment or incurring, shall constitute additional Obligations secured by the Security Documents and shall be paid by the Company to the Noteholders on demand. 
  
 SECTION 11. REGISTRATION; EXCHANGE; SUBSTITUTION OF NOTES 
  
 §11.1. Registration of Notes. The Company shall
keep at its principal executive office a register for the registration and registration of transfers of Notes. The name and address of each holder of one or more Notes, each transfer thereof and the name and address of each transferee of one or more
Notes shall be registered in such register. Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer, the Person in whose name any Note shall be registered shall be deemed and treated as the owner and holder thereof for all purposes hereof, and the
Company shall not be 

  

 47 

 
affected by any notice or knowledge to the contrary. The Company shall give to any holder of a Note that is an Institutional Investor promptly upon request
therefor, a complete and correct copy of the names and addresses of all registered holders of Notes. 
  
 §11.2. Transfer and Exchange of Notes. Upon surrender of any Note at the principal executive office of the Company for
registration of transfer or exchange (and in the case of a surrender for registration of transfer, duly endorsed or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer duly executed by the registered holder of such Note or its attorney duly authorized
in writing and accompanied by the address for notices of each transferee of such Note or part thereof), the Company shall execute and deliver, at the Company’s expense (except as provided below), one or more new Notes (as requested by the
holder thereof) in exchange therefor, in an aggregate principal amount equal to the unpaid principal amount of the surrendered Note. Each such new Note shall be payable to such Person as such holder may request and shall be substantially in the form
of Exhibit A-1 or Exhibit A-2, respectively. Each such new Note shall be dated and bear interest from the date to which interest shall have been paid on the surrendered Note or dated the date of the surrendered Note if no
interest shall have been paid thereon. The Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any stamp tax or governmental charge imposed in respect of any such transfer of Notes. Notes shall not be transferred in denominations of less than
$500,000, provided that if necessary to enable the registration of transfer by a holder of its entire holding of Notes, one Note may be in a denomination of less than $500,000. Any transferee, by its acceptance of a Note registered in its name (or
the name of its nominee), shall be deemed to have made the representation set forth in Section 4.2. 
  
 §11.3. Replacement of Notes. Upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the ownership of and the
loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of any Note (which evidence shall be, in the case of an Institutional Investor, notice from such Institutional Investor of such ownership and such loss, theft, destruction or mutilation), and 
  
 (a) in the case of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity reasonably
satisfactory to it (provided that if the holder of such Note is, or is a nominee for, an original Purchaser or another holder of a Note with a minimum net worth of at least $50,000,000, such Person’s own unsecured agreement of indemnity shall
be deemed to be satisfactory), or 
  
 (b) in the case of
mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation thereof, 
  
 the Company at its own
expense shall execute and deliver, in lieu thereof, a new Note, dated and bearing interest from the date to which interest shall have been paid on such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note or dated the date of such lost, stolen, destroyed or
mutilated Note if no interest shall have been paid thereon. 
  
 §11.4. Effect of Transfer or Exchange. All Notes issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Notes shall be the valid obligations of the Company evidencing the same respective obligations, and entitled
to the same security and benefits under the Security Documents, as the Notes surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange. The Company shall not be required to register the transfer of or exchange any surrendered Note as 

  

 48 

 
above provided during the ten-day period preceding the due date of any payment of principal of or interest on such Note. 
  
 SECTION 12. PAYMENTS ON NOTES 
  
 §12.1. Place of Payment. Subject to
Section 12.2, payments of principal, Make-Whole Amount, if any, and interest becoming due and payable on the Notes shall be made in Los Angeles, California, at the principal office of the Company in such jurisdiction. The Company may at
any time, by notice to each holder of a Note, change the place of payment of the Notes so long as such place of payment shall be either the principal office of the Company in the United States or the principal office of a bank or trust company in
the United States. 
  
 §12.2. Home Office
Payment. So long as you or your nominee shall be the holder of any Note, and notwithstanding anything contained in Section 12.1 or in such Note to the contrary, the Company will pay all sums becoming due on such Note for principal,
Make-Whole Amount, if any, and interest by no later than 12:00 noon Champaign, Illinois time on the date specified for payment by the method and at the address specified for such purpose below your name in Schedule I, or by such other
method or at such other address as you shall have from time to time specified to the Company in writing for such purpose, without the presentation or surrender of such Note or the making of any notation thereon, except that upon written request of
the Company made concurrently with or reasonably promptly after payment or prepayment in full of any Note, you shall surrender such Note for cancellation, reasonably promptly after any such request, to the Company at its principal executive office
or at the place of payment most recently designated by the Company pursuant to Section 12.1. Prior to any sale or other disposition of any Note held by you or your nominee you will, at your election, either endorse thereon the amount of
principal paid thereon and the last date to which interest has been paid thereon or surrender such Note to the Company in exchange for a new Note or Notes pursuant to Section 11.2. The Company will afford the benefits of this Section 12 to
any Institutional Investor that is the direct or indirect transferee of any Note purchased by you under this Agreement and that has made the same agreement relating to such Note as you have made in this Section 12.2. 
  
 §12.3. Set Off. In addition to any other rights any
holder of the Notes may have under law or in equity, if any amount shall at any time be due and owing by the Company to any holder under this Agreement or the Notes, each holder of the Notes is authorized at any time or from time to time, without
notice (any such notice being hereby expressly waived), to set off and to appropriate and to apply any and all deposits (general or special, including but not limited to indebtedness evidenced by certificates of deposit, whether matured or
unmatured) and any other indebtedness of such holder owing to the Company and any other property of the Company held by such holder to or for the credit or the account of the Company against and on account of the obligations and liabilities of the
Company to any holder under this Agreement and the Notes. 
  
 §12.4. Sharing of Payments. If, other than as expressly provided elsewhere herein, any holder of the Notes shall obtain on account of the Notes held by it any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, under any
agreement or instrument executed pursuant to this Agreement or any guaranty or security for the Notes, through the exercise of any right of set off 

  

 49 

 
or otherwise) in excess of its ratable share, such holder shall immediately (a) notify the other holders of the Notes of such fact, and
(b) purchase from the other holders of the Notes such participations in the Notes made by them as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing holder to share the excess payment pro rata with each of them; provided, however, that if all or any
portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from such purchasing holder, such purchase shall to that extent be rescinded and each other holder of the Notes shall repay to such purchasing holder the purchase price paid therefor, together
with an amount equal to such paying holder’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such paying holder’s required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing holder) of any
interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing holder in respect of the total amount so recovered. The Company agrees that any holder of the Notes so purchasing a participation from another holder of the Notes may, to the fullest extent
permitted by applicable law, exercise all its rights of payment (including any right of set off) with respect to such participation as fully as if such holder were the direct creditor of the Company in the amount of such participation. 

 
 SECTION 13. EXPENSES; FUNDING INDEMNITY 
  
 §13.1. Transaction Expenses. Whether or not the
transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, the Company will pay all costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees of a special counsel and, if reasonably required, local or other counsel) incurred by each Purchaser or holder
of a Note in connection with such transactions and in connection with any amendments, waivers or consents under or in respect of this Agreement or the Notes (whether or not such amendment, waiver or consent becomes effective), including, without
limitation: (a) the costs and expenses incurred in enforcing or defending (or determining whether or how to enforce or defend) any rights under this Agreement or the Notes or in responding to any subpoena or other legal process or informal
investigative demand issued in connection with this Agreement or the Notes, or by reason of being a holder of any Note, and (b) the costs and expenses, including financial advisors’ fees, incurred in connection with the insolvency or
bankruptcy of the Company or any Subsidiary or in connection with any work-out or restructuring of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the Notes. The Company will pay, and will save you and each other holder of a Note harmless from, all
claims in respect of any fees, costs or expenses if any, of brokers and finders (other than those retained by you). 
  
 §13.2. Indemnity For Funds Availability At Closing. In connection with the Closing under this Agreement, the Company is
requesting that you make available for funding an amount equal to the aggregate purchase price of the Notes to be purchased by you. If, for any reason (other than your intentional misconduct or gross negligence), the Closing does not occur as
scheduled under Section 1.3, the Company hereby agrees to protect, indemnify and hold you harmless from and against any and all losses, liabilities, obligations, expenses (including, with limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and
expenses) imposed upon or incurred by or asserted against you in any way resulting from, caused by or arising out of the failure of the Closing to occur as scheduled under Section 1.3, including, without limitation, any and all losses resulting
from the inability to reinvest any amounts reserved, set aside or otherwise to be made available at the scheduled Closing at a rate of interest equal to or greater than the rate of interest on the Notes. The obligations of the Company under this
Section 13 shall survive the payment or prepayment of the Notes and the termination of this Agreement. 
  

 50 

 §13.3. Survival. The obligations of the Company under this Section 13 will
survive the payment or transfer of any Note, the enforcement, amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or the Notes, and the termination of this Agreement. 
  
 SECTION 14. SURVIVAL OF REPRESENTATIONS; ENTIRE AGREEMENT 
  
 All representations and warranties contained herein shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the
Notes, the purchase or transfer by you of any Note or portion thereof or interest therein and the payment of any Note, and may be relied upon by any subsequent holder of a Note, regardless of any investigation made at any time by or on behalf of you
or any other holder of a Note. All statements contained in any certificate or other instrument delivered by or on behalf of the Company pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed representations and warranties of the Company under this Agreement.
Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement and the Notes embody the entire agreement and understanding between you and the Company and supersede all prior agreements and understandings relating to the subject matter hereof. 
  
 SECTION 15. AMENDMENT AND WAIVER 
  
 §15.1. Requirements. This Agreement and the Notes
may be amended, and the observance of any term hereof or of the Notes may be waived (either retroactively or prospectively), with (and only with) the written consent of the Company and the Required Holders, except that (a) no amendment or
waiver of any of the provisions of Section 1, 2, 3, 4 or 19 hereof, or any defined term (as it is used therein), will be effective as to you unless consented to by you in writing, and (b) no such amendment or waiver may, without the
written consent of the holder of each Note at the time outstanding affected thereby, (i) subject to the provisions of Section 10 relating to acceleration or rescission, change the amount or time of any prepayment or payment of principal
of, or reduce the rate or change the time of payment or method of computation of interest or of the Make-Whole Amount on, the Notes, (ii) change the percentage of the principal amount of the Notes the holders of which are required to consent to
any such amendment or waiver, or (iii) amend any of Sections 6, 9.1(a), 9.1(b), 10, 12.3, 12.4, 15 or 18. 
  
 §15.2. Solicitation of Holders of Notes. 
  
 (a) Solicitation. The Company will provide each holder of the Notes (irrespective of the amount of Notes then owned
by it) with sufficient information, sufficiently far in advance of the date a decision is required, to enable such holder to make an informed and considered decision with respect to any proposed amendment, waiver or consent in respect of any of the
provisions hereof or of the Notes. The Company will deliver executed or true and correct copies of each amendment, waiver or consent effected pursuant to the provisions of this Section 15 to each holder of outstanding Notes promptly following
the date on which it is executed and delivered by, or receives the consent or approval of, the requisite holders of Notes. 
  
 (b) Payment. The Company will not directly or indirectly pay or cause to be paid any remuneration, whether by way of supplemental or additional
interest, fee or otherwise, or grant any security, to any holder of Notes as consideration for or as an inducement to the 

  

 51 

 
entering into by any holder of Notes or any waiver or amendment of any of the terms and provisions hereof unless such remuneration is concurrently paid, or
security is concurrently granted, on the same terms, ratably to each holder of Notes then outstanding even if such holder did not consent to such waiver or amendment. 
  
 §15.3. Binding Effect, etc. Any amendment or waiver consented to as provided
in this Section 15 applies equally to all holders of Notes and is binding upon them and upon each future holder of any Note and upon the Company without regard to whether such Note has been marked to indicate such amendment or waiver. No such
amendment or waiver will extend to or affect any obligation, covenant, agreement, Default or Event of Default not expressly amended or waived or impair any right consequent thereon. No course of dealing between the Company and the holder of any Note
nor any delay in exercising any rights hereunder or under any Note shall operate as a waiver of any rights of any holder of such Note. As used herein, the term “this Agreement” and references thereto shall mean this Agreement as it may
from time to time be amended or supplemented. 
  
 §15.4. Notes held by Company. Solely for the purpose of determining whether the holders of the requisite percentage of the aggregate principal amount of Notes then outstanding approved or consented to any
amendment, waiver or consent to be given under this Agreement or the Notes, or have directed the taking of any action provided herein or in the Notes to be taken upon the direction of the holders of a specified percentage of the aggregate principal
amount of Notes then outstanding, Notes directly or indirectly owned by the Company or any of its Affiliates shall be deemed not to be outstanding. 
  
 SECTION 16. NOTICES 
  
 All notices and communications provided for hereunder or under any Subsidiary Guaranty shall be in writing and sent (a) by telecopy if the sender on
the same day sends a confirming copy of such notice by a recognized overnight delivery service (charges prepaid), or (b) by registered or certified mail with return receipt requested (postage prepaid), or (c) by a recognized overnight
delivery service (with charges prepaid). Any such notice must be sent: 
  
 (a) if to you or your nominee, to you or it at the address specified for such communications in Schedule I, or at such other address as you or it shall have specified to the Company in writing, 
  
 (b) if to any other holder of any Note, to such holder at such address as
such other holder shall have specified to the Company in writing, 
  
 (c) if to the Company, to the Company at its address set forth at the beginning hereof to the attention of the Chief Financial Officer, or at such other address as the Company shall have specified to the Noteholders in writing; or

  
 (d) if to any Subsidiary Guarantor, to such Subsidiary
Guarantor at its address set forth on Schedule III, or at such other address as such Subsidiary Guarantor shall have specified to the Noteholders in writing. 
  

 52 

 Notices under this Section 16 will be deemed given only when actually received, or if delivery is refused, will be
deemed to have been given when such delivery is refused. Each holder of a Note will also send a copy of notices and communications to the Company to the attention of the Secretary of the Corporation, but failure to do so will not affect the
effectiveness of any notice sent as provided in clause (c) above. 
  
 SECTION 17. REPRODUCTION OF DOCUMENTS 
  
 This Agreement and all documents relating thereto, including, without limitation, (a) consents, waivers and modifications that may hereafter be executed, (b) documents received by you at the Closing (except the Notes themselves),
and (c) financial statements, certificates and other information previously or hereafter furnished to you, may be reproduced by you by any photographic, photostatic, microfilm, microcard, miniature photographic or other similar process and you
may destroy any original document so reproduced. The Company agrees and stipulates that, to the extent permitted by applicable law, any such reproduction shall be admissible in evidence as the original itself in any judicial or administrative
proceeding (whether or not the original is in existence and whether or not such reproduction was made by you in the regular course of business) and any enlargement, facsimile or further reproduction of such reproduction shall likewise be admissible
in evidence. This Section 17 shall not prohibit the Company or any other holder of Notes from contesting any such reproduction to the same extent that it could contest the original, or from introducing evidence to demonstrate the inaccuracy of
any such reproduction. 
  
 SECTION 18. CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION

  
 For the purposes of this Section 18,
“Confidential Information” means information delivered to you by or on behalf of the Company or any Subsidiary in connection with the transactions contemplated by or otherwise pursuant to this Agreement that is proprietary in
nature and that was clearly marked or labeled or otherwise adequately identified when received by you as being confidential information of the Company or such Subsidiary, provided that such term does not include information that (a) was
publicly known or otherwise known to you prior to the time of such disclosure, (b) subsequently becomes publicly known through no act or omission by you or any person acting on your behalf, (c) otherwise becomes known to you other than
through disclosure by the Company or any Subsidiary or (d) constitutes financial statements delivered to you under Section 5.1 that are otherwise publicly available. You will maintain the confidentiality of such Confidential Information in
accordance with procedures adopted by you in good faith to protect confidential information of third parties delivered to you, provided that you may deliver or disclose Confidential Information to (i) your directors, officers, employees,
agents, attorneys and Affiliates (to the extent such disclosure reasonably relates to the administration of the investment represented by your Notes), (ii) your financial advisors and other professional advisors who agree to hold confidential
the Confidential Information substantially in accordance with the terms of this Section 18, (iii) any other holder of any Note or the Collateral Agent, (iv) any Institutional Investor to which you sell or offer to sell such Note or
any part thereof or any participation therein (if such Person has agreed in writing prior to its receipt of such Confidential Information to be bound by the provisions of this Section 18), (v) any Person from which you offer to purchase
any security of the Company (if such Person has 

  

 53 

 
agreed in writing prior to its receipt of such Confidential Information to be bound by the provisions of this Section 18), (vi) any federal or
state regulatory authority having jurisdiction over you, (vii) the NAIC or any similar organization, or any nationally recognized rating agency that requires access to information about your investment portfolio or (viii) any other Person
to which such delivery or disclosure may be necessary or appropriate (A) to effect compliance with any law, rule, regulation or order applicable to you, (B) in response to any subpoena or other legal process, (C) in connection with
any litigation to which you are a party or (D) if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, to the extent you may reasonably determine such delivery and disclosure to be necessary or appropriate in the enforcement or for the
protection of the rights and remedies under your Notes and this Agreement. Each holder of a Note, by its acceptance of a Note, will be deemed to have agreed to be bound by and to be entitled to the benefits of this Section 18 as though it were
a party to this Agreement. On reasonable request by the Company in connection with the delivery to any holder of a Note of information required to be delivered to such holder under this Agreement or requested by such holder (other than a holder that
is a party to this Agreement or its nominee), such holder will enter into an agreement with the Company embodying the provisions of this Section 18. 
  
 SECTION 19. SUBSTITUTION OF PURCHASER 
  
 You shall have the right to substitute any one of your Affiliates as the purchaser of the Notes that you have agreed to purchase hereunder, by written
notice to the Company, which notice shall be signed by both you and such Affiliate, shall contain such Affiliate’s agreement to be bound by this Agreement and shall contain a confirmation by such Affiliate of the accuracy with respect to it of
the representations set forth in Section 4. Upon receipt of such notice, wherever the word “you” is used in this Agreement (other than in this Section 19), such word shall be deemed to refer to such Affiliate in lieu of you. In
the event that such Affiliate is so substituted as a purchaser hereunder and such Affiliate thereafter transfers to you all of the Notes then held by such Affiliate, upon receipt by the Company of notice of such transfer, wherever the word
“you” is used in this Agreement (other than in this Section 19), such word shall no longer be deemed to refer to such Affiliate, but shall refer to you, and you shall have all the rights of an original holder of the Notes under this
Agreement. 
  
 SECTION 20. INTERPRETATION OF AGREEMENT 

 
 §20.1. Definitions. Except as the
context shall otherwise require, the terms in the Glossary attached hereto shall have the meanings set forth therein for all purposes of this Agreement. 
  
 §20.2. Directly or Indirectly. Any provision in this Agreement referring to action to be taken by any Person, or that
such Person is prohibited from taking, shall be applicable whether such action is taken directly or indirectly by such Person. 
  
 §20.3. Accounting Terms. All accounting terms used herein that are not otherwise expressly defined shall have the respective
meanings given to them in accordance with GAAP at the particular time. 
  

 54 

 §20.4. Independence of Covenants. Each covenant made by the Company herein is
independent of each other covenant so made. The fact that the operation of any such covenant permits a particular action to be taken or condition to exist does not mean that such action or condition is not prohibited, restricted or conditioned by
the operation of the provisions of any other covenant herein. 
  
 §20.5. Headings. The headings of the Sections and other subdivisions of this Agreement have been inserted for convenience of reference only and shall not be deemed to constitute a part thereof. 
  
 SECTION 21. MISCELLANEOUS 
  
 §21.1. Successors and Assigns. All covenants and
other agreements contained in this Agreement by or on behalf of any of the parties hereto bind and inure to the benefit of their respective successors and assigns (including, without limitation, any subsequent holder of a Note) whether so expressed
or not. 
  
 §21.2. Payments Due on Non-Business
Days. Anything in this Agreement or the Notes to the contrary notwithstanding, any payment of principal of or Make-Whole Amount or interest on any Note that is due on a date other than a Business Day shall be made on the next
succeeding Business Day without including the additional days elapsed in the computation of the interest payable on such next succeeding Business Day. 
  
 §21.3. No Partnership. Neither the execution or delivery of this Agreement or any of the other agreements or instruments
executed and delivered or contemplated to be executed and delivered in order to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, nor the performance of this Agreement or any of such other agreements or instruments, shall constitute you or any
subsequent holder of a Note as a partner or a joint venturer in or of the Company or any Subsidiary, or shall constitute or evidence the agreement of any of such Persons to undertake or assume any liabilities or share in any losses of the Company or
any Subsidiary. 
  
 §21.4. Severability.
Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and
any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall (to the full extent permitted by applicable law) not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. 
  
 §21.5. Construction. Each covenant contained herein
shall be construed (absent express provision to the contrary) as being independent of each other covenant contained herein, so that compliance with any one covenant shall not (absent such an express contrary provision) be deemed to excuse compliance
with any other covenant. Where any provision herein refers to action to be taken by any Person, or which such Person is prohibited from taking, such provision shall be applicable whether such action is taken directly or indirectly by such Person.

  
 §21.6. Counterparts. This Agreement
may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original but all of which together shall constitute one 

  

 55 

 
instrument. Each counterpart may consist of a number of copies hereof, each signed by less than all, but together signed by all, of the parties hereto.

  
 §21.7. Additional Security. Without
notice to or consent of the Company, and without impairment of the Lien and rights created by the Security Documents, the Noteholders may accept from the Company or from any other Person additional security for the obligations secured hereby.
Neither the execution of the Security Documents nor the acceptance of any such additional security shall prevent the Noteholders from resorting first to such additional security, or first to the security created by the Security Documents, or
concurrently, to both, in any case without affecting the Noteholders’ Lien and rights under the Security Documents. 
  
 §21.8. Integration. This Agreement together with all exhibits and schedules hereto, the Security Documents, the Notes and the
other Debt Documents constitute the entire agreement among the parties hereto pertaining to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements, understandings, negotiations and discussions, whether oral or written, of the parties.

  
 §21.9. Governing Law. THIS AGREEMENT
AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND SHALL BE CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA, WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICTS OF LAWS PRINCIPLES. THIS AGREEMENT HAS BEEN
NEGOTIATED WITH REFERENCE TO THE LAWS OF, AND IS BEING MADE AND DELIVERED IN, THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA. 
  
 §21.10. Consent to Jurisdiction and Service of Process. ALL JUDICIAL PROCEEDINGS BROUGHT AGAINST ANY PARTY HERETO ARISING OUT OF
OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE NOTES, OR ANY OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER OR THEREUNDER, MAY BE BROUGHT IN A COURT OF RECORD IN THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA OR IN THE COURTS OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA LOCATED IN SUCH STATE. BY EXECUTING AND
DELIVERING THIS AGREEMENT, EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO, FOR ITSELF AND IN CONNECTION WITH ITS PROPERTIES, IRREVOCABLY 
  
 (a) ACCEPTS GENERALLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY THE NONEXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION AND VENUE OF SUCH COURTS; 
  
 (b) WAIVES ANY DEFENSE OF FORUM NON CONVENIENS; 
  
 (c) AGREES THAT SERVICE OF ALL PROCESS IN ANY SUCH PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH
COURT MAY BE MADE BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL, RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED, TO SUCH PARTY AT ITS ADDRESS PROVIDED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SECTION 16; 
  
 (d) AGREES THAT SERVICE AS PROVIDED IN CLAUSE (c) ABOVE IS SUFFICIENT TO CONFER PERSONAL JURISDICTION OVER SUCH PARTY IN ANY 

  

 56 

 
SUCH PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT, AND OTHERWISE CONSTITUTES EFFECTIVE AND BINDING SERVICE IN EVERY RESPECT; AND 
  
 (e) AGREES THAT ANY PARTY HERETO RETAINS THE RIGHT TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY
OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW OR TO BRING PROCEEDINGS AGAINST ANOTHER PARTY IN THE COURTS OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTION. 
  
 §21.11. Judicial Reference. THE PARTIES DESIRE THAT THEIR DISPUTES BE RESOLVED BY A JUDGE OR RETIRED JUDGE APPLYING THE APPLICABLE LAW.
THEREFORE, SAID PARTIES AGREE TO REFER, FOR A COMPLETE AND FINAL ADJUDICATION, ANY AND ALL ISSUES OF FACT OR LAW INVOLVED IN ANY LITIGATION OR PROCEEDING (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ALL DISCOVERY AND LAW AND MOTION MATTERS, PRETRIAL MOTIONS,
TRIAL MATTERS, AND POST-TRIAL MOTIONS (E.G., MOTIONS FOR RECONSIDERATION, NEW TRIAL AND TO TAX COSTS, ATTORNEYS’ FEES AND PREJUDGMENT INTEREST)) UP TO AND INCLUDING FINAL JUDGMENT, BROUGHT TO RESOLVE ANY DISPUTE (WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT,
TORT, UNDER ANY STATUTE OR OTHERWISE) BETWEEN AND AMONG SAID PARTIES ARISING OUT OF, CONNECTED WITH OR RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THE RELATIONSHIP ESTABLISHED AMONG THE PARTIES IN CONNECTION WITH THE NOTE PURCHASE DOCUMENTS OR THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED
THERETO, TO A JUDICIAL REFEREE WHO SHALL BE APPOINTED UNDER A GENERAL REFERENCE PURSUANT TO CALIFORNIA CODE OF CIVIL PROCEDURE SECTION 638. THE REFEREE’S DECISION WILL STAND AS THE DECISION OF THE COURT, WITH JUDGMENT TO BE ENTERED ON
HIS/HER STATEMENT OF DECISION IN THE SAME MANNER AS IF THE ACTION HAD BEEN TRIED BY THE COURT. SAID PARTIES SHALL SELECT A SINGLE NEUTRAL REFEREE, WHO SHALL BE A RETIRED STATE OR FEDERAL JUDGE, WITH AT LEAST FIVE YEARS OF JUDICIAL EXPERIENCE IN

 GLOSSARY TO AMENDED AND RESTATED NOTE PURCHASE AGREEMENT

 Unified Western
Grocers, Inc., a California corporation (the “Company”), for value received, hereby promises to pay to
[                    ] or registered assigns, the principal sum of
[                    ] AND NO/100 DOLLARS ($            ) on
January 1, 2016 (the “New Notes Maturity Date”); and to pay interest on the unpaid principal balance hereof until this Note shall become due and payable in accordance with the terms hereof or of that certain Amended and
Restated Note Purchase Agreement dated as of January     , 2006 (the “Agreement”) among the Company, John Hancock Life Insurance Company and the other purchasers therein (whether at maturity,
by acceleration or otherwise) at the fixed rate of 7.157% per annum. All capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Agreement. 
  
 Interest on this Note shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. If the Company shall have
paid or agreed to pay any interest or Make-Whole Amount on this Note in excess of that permitted by law, then it is the express intent of the Company and the holder hereof that all excess amounts previously paid or to be paid by the Company be
applied to reduce the principal balance of this Note, and the provisions hereof immediately be deemed reformed and the amounts thereafter collectable hereunder reduced, without the necessity of the execution of any new document, so as to comply with
the then applicable law, but also so as to permit the recovery of the fullest amount otherwise called for hereunder. 
  
 Accrued interest on this Note shall be due and payable on the first Business Day of each month (each, an “Installment Date”),
commencing on February 1, 2006. On January 1, 2011 and on the first of each month thereafter to and including the month immediately preceding January 1, 2016, the Company will pay the Tranche A Amortization Payment without payment of
the Make-Whole Amount or any premium. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any Note, however, the final payment due under each Note (whether at maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) shall be in an amount sufficient to
pay in full all outstanding principal 

  

 Exhibit A-1-1 

 
thereon together with all accrued interest and premium due hereon. The aggregate outstanding principal balance of this Note shall be due on the New Notes
Maturity Date. 
  
 In the event any installment of principal,
Make-Whole Amount or interest is not paid as and when such sum is due, a late charge shall accrue in the amount of two percent (2%) of such overdue installment, and shall be due and payable immediately. If the Company shall fail to pay any
payment when such sum is due, whether by acceleration, maturity or otherwise, this Note shall bear interest on all outstanding principal, Make-Whole Amount, if any, and (to the extent permitted by applicable law) interest, at the Overdue Rate.

  
 This Note is one of a series of Amended and Restated Senior
Secured Notes issued in the aggregate principal amount of $86,000,000 pursuant to the Agreement, and is entitled to the benefits thereof. Payment of principal, Make-Whole Amount, if any, and interest shall be made to the holder hereof in accordance
with Section 12 of the Agreement. As and to the extent provided in the Agreement, this Note is subject to prepayment, in whole or in part, in certain cases without premium and in other cases with premium. The Company agrees to make required
prepayments on account of this Note in accordance with the provisions of the Agreement. Under certain circumstances, as specified in the Agreement, the principal of and accrued interest on this Note may be declared due and payable in the manner and
with the effect provided in the Agreement. 
  
 The payment of
principal of and Make-Whole Amount, if any, and interest on this Note has been unconditionally secured by the Company by Liens on the Property and an absolute assignment of rents pursuant to the Deeds of Trust and the Security Agreements. Executed
counterparts of the Security Agreements, the Deeds of Trust and the other Security Documents are available for examination at the office of the Company maintained pursuant to Section 7.9 of the Agreement. 
  
 This Note has not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, or the laws of any state and may be transferred in whole or in part only pursuant to an effective registration statement under such Act and applicable state laws or under an exemption from such registration available under such Act and
applicable state law. Subject to the foregoing, transfers of this Note shall be registered upon registration books maintained for such purpose by or on behalf of the Company as provided in the Agreement. Prior to presentation of this Note for
registration of transfer, the Company shall treat the registered holder hereof as the owner and holder of this Note for the purpose of receiving all payments of principal and interest hereon and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not this
Note shall be overdue, and the Company shall not be affected by notice to the contrary. This Note may be transferred only to an Institutional Investor (as defined in the Agreement). 
  
 The Company agrees to perform and observe duly and punctually each of the covenants and agreements set forth in the
Agreement, subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein. All such covenants, agreements, terms and conditions are incorporated by reference in this Note, and this Note shall be interpreted and construed as if all such covenants, agreements,
