 Exhibit 10.7 

LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT 

NEOPHOTONICS CORPORATION 

 LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT 

This LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT is entered into as of December 20, 2007, by and between Comerica Bank (“Bank”) and NeoPhotonics
Corporation (“Borrower”). 
 RECITALS 

Borrower wishes to obtain credit from time to time from Bank, and Bank desires to extend credit to Borrower. This Agreement sets forth the terms on which
Bank will advance credit to Borrower, and Borrower will repay the amounts owing to Bank. 
 AGREEMENT 

The parties agree as follows: 
  

	1.	DEFINITIONS AND CONSTRUCTION. 

  

	 	1.1	Definitions. As used in this Agreement, all capitalized terms shall have the definitions set forth on Exhibit A. Any term used in the Code and not defined herein
shall have the meaning given to the term in the Code. 

  

	 	1.2	Accounting Terms. Any accounting term not specifically defined on Exhibit A shall be construed in accordance with GAAP and all calculations shall be made in
accordance with GAAP. The term “financial statements” shall include the accompanying notes and schedules. 

  

	2.	LOAN AND TERMS OF PAYMENT. 

  

	 	2.1	Credit Extensions. 

  

	 	(a)	Promise to Pay. Borrower promises to pay to Bank, in lawful money of the United States of America, the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all Credit Extensions
made by Bank to Borrower, together with interest on the unpaid principal amount of such Credit Extensions at rates in accordance with the terms hereof. 

  

	 	(b)	Advances Under Revolving Line. 

  

	 	(i)	Amount. Subject to and upon the terms and conditions of this Agreement (1) Borrower may request Advances in an aggregate outstanding amount not to exceed
the lesser of the Revolving Line (which is inclusive of amounts outstanding under the Letter of Credit Sublimit), and (2) amounts borrowed pursuant to this Section 2.1(b) may be repaid and reborrowed at any time prior to the Revolving
Maturity Date, at which time all Advances under this Section 2.1(b) shall be immediately due and payable. Except as otherwise provided in the LIBOR Addendum, Borrower may prepay any Advances without penalty or premium. 

 

	 	(ii)	 Form of Request. Whenever Borrower desires an Advance, Borrower will notify Bank by facsimile transmission or telephone no later than 3:00 p.m.
Pacific time (1:00 p.m. Pacific time for wire transfers), on the Business Day that the Advance is to be made. Each such notification shall be promptly confirmed by a Payment/Advance Form in substantially the form of Exhibit C. Bank is authorized to
make Advances under this Agreement, based upon instructions received from a Responsible Officer or a designee of a Responsible Officer, or 

	 	
without instructions if in Bank’s discretion such Advances are necessary to meet Obligations which have become due and remain unpaid. Bank shall be entitled to rely on any telephonic notice
given by a person who Bank reasonably believes to be a Responsible Officer or a designee thereof, and Borrower shall indemnify and hold Bank harmless for any damages or loss suffered by Bank as a result of such reliance. Bank will credit the amount
of Advances made under this Section 2.1(b) to Borrower’s deposit account. 

  

	 	(iii)	Letter of Credit Sublimit. Subject to the availability under the Revolving Line, and in reliance on the representations and warranties of Borrower set forth
herein, at any time and from time to time from the date hereof through the Business Day immediately prior to the Revolving Maturity Date, Bank shall issue for the account of Borrower such Letters of Credit as Borrower may request by delivering to
Bank a duly executed letter of credit application on Bank’s standard form; provided, however, that the outstanding and undrawn amounts under all such Letters of Credit (i) shall not at any time exceed the Letter of Credit Sublimit, and
(ii) shall be deemed to constitute Advances for the purpose of calculating availability under the Revolving Line. Any drawn but unreimbursed amounts under any Letters of Credit shall be charged as Advances against the Revolving Line. All
Letters of Credit shall be in form and substance acceptable to Bank in its sole discretion and shall be subject to the terms and conditions of Bank’s form application and letter of credit agreement. Borrower will pay any standard issuance and
other fees that Bank notifies Borrower it will charge for issuing and processing Letters of Credit. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, Borrower shall only request, and Bank shall only issue, Letters of Credit in favor of
Standard Chartered Bank. 

  

	 	(iv)	Collateralization of Obligations Extending Beyond Maturity. If Borrower has not secured to Bank’s satisfaction its obligations with respect to any Letters
of Credit by the Revolving Maturity Date, then, effective as of such date, the balance in any deposit accounts held by Bank and the certificates of deposit or time deposit accounts issued by Bank in Borrower’s name (and any interest paid
thereon or proceeds thereof, including any amounts payable upon the maturity or liquidation of such certificates or accounts), shall automatically secure such obligations to the extent of the then continuing or outstanding and undrawn Letters of
Credit. Borrower authorizes Bank to hold such balances in pledge and to decline to honor any drafts thereon or any requests by Borrower or any other Person to pay or otherwise transfer any part of such balances for so long as the Letters of Credit
are outstanding or continue. 

  

	 	(c)	Equipment Advances. 

  

	 	(i)	 Subject to and upon the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Bank agrees to make Equipment Advances to Borrower in six tranches, Tranche A, Tranche
B, Tranche C, Tranche D, Tranche E and Tranche F. Borrower may request Equipment Advances under Tranche A at any time from the date hereof through the Tranche A Availability End Date. Borrower may request Equipment Advances under Tranche B at any

Equipment Advances under each of Tranche B, Tranche C, Tranche D, Tranche E and Tranche F shall not exceed $2,000,000 per Tranche. The aggregate outstanding amount of all Equipment Advances shall at no time exceed the Equipment Line and each
Equipment Advance shall be in a minimum amount of $150,000. Each Equipment Advance shall not exceed 100% of the invoice amount of new equipment and software approved by Bank from time to time (which Borrower shall, in any case, have purchased
(a) within 90 days of the date of the corresponding Equipment Advance, (b) between October 31, 2006 and March 19, 2007 (each, an “Initial Look Back Equipment Advance”) or (c) between March 20, 2007 and the
Closing Date (each, a “Second Look Back Equipment Advance”); provided, that the aggregate amount of (i) the Initial Look Back Equipment Advances shall not exceed $1,600,000 at any time and (ii) the Second Look Back Equipment
Advances shall not exceed $2,000,000 at any time), excluding taxes, shipping, warranty charges, freight discounts, installation expense and other soft costs. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the aggregate maximum amount of Equipment Advances used for
software purchases and related installation fees shall not exceed $3,000,000 at any time. 

  

	 	(ii)	 Interest shall accrue from the date of each Equipment Advance at the rate specified in Section 2.3(a), and shall be payable in accordance with

beginning on January 20, 2008, and continuing on the same day of each month thereafter until paid in full or through the Equipment Maturity Date, whichever is the first to occur and
(b) the Second Look Back Equipment Advances shall be payable in twenty-four (24) equal monthly installments of principal, plus all accrued interest, beginning on January 20, 2008, and continuing on the same day of each month

	 	(iii)	When Borrower desires to obtain an Equipment Advance, Borrower shall notify Bank (which notice shall be irrevocable) by facsimile transmission to be received no later
than 3:00 p.m. Pacific time three Business Days before the day on which the Equipment Advance is to be made. Such notice shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit C and the amount requested by Borrower shall be no less than $150,000. The notice

	 	(ii)	Interest shall accrue from the Closing Date at the rate specified in Section 2.3(a), and shall be payable in accordance with Section 2.3(c). The Term Loan

due in connection with the Term Loan made under this Section 2.1(d) shall be immediately due and payable. Any portion of the Term Loan, once repaid, may not be reborrowed. Except as otherwise provided in the LIBOR Addendum, Borrower may prepay
any portion of the Term Loan without penalty or premium. 

  

	 	2.2	Reserved. 

  

	 	2.3	Interest Rates, Payments, and Calculations. 

  

	 	(a)	Interest Rates. 

  

	 	(i)	Advances. Except as set forth in Section 2.3(b), the Advances shall bear interest, on the outstanding daily balance thereof, at either the Prime Rate Option
(as defined in the LIBOR Addendum) interest rate or the LIBOR Option (as defined in the LIBOR Addendum) interest rate, as set forth in the LIBOR Addendum. 

  

	 	(ii)	Equipment Advances. Except as set forth in Section 2.3(b), the Equipment Advances shall bear interest, on the outstanding daily balance thereof, at either
the Prime Rate Option interest rate or the LIBOR Option interest rate, as set forth in the LIBOR Addendum. 

  

 4 

	 	(iii)	Term Loan. Except as set forth in Section 2.3(b), the Term Loan shall bear interest, on the outstanding daily balance thereof, at either the Prime Rate
Option interest rate or the LIBOR Option interest rate, as set forth in the LIBOR Addendum. 

  

	 	(b)	Late Fee; Default Rate. If any payment is not made within 10 days after the date such payment is due, Borrower shall pay Bank a late fee equal to the lesser of
(i) 5% of the amount of such unpaid amount or (ii) the maximum amount permitted to be charged under applicable law. All Obligations shall bear interest, from and after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, at a
rate equal to 5 percentage points above the interest rate applicable immediately prior to the occurrence of the Event of Default. 

  

	 	(c)	Payments. Interest hereunder shall be due and payable (i) on the seventeenth calendar day of each month during the term hereof with respect to Credit
Extensions bearing interest at the Prime Rate Option and (ii) on the last day of the applicable LIBOR Period with respect to Credit Extensions bearing interest at the LIBOR Option. Bank shall, at its option, charge such interest, all Bank
Expenses, and all Periodic Payments against any of Borrower’s deposit accounts or against the Revolving Line, in which case those amounts shall thereafter accrue interest at the rate then applicable hereunder. Any interest not paid when due
shall be compounded by becoming a part of the Obligations, and such interest shall thereafter accrue interest at the rate then applicable hereunder. 

  

	 	(d)	Computation. In the event the Prime Rate is changed from time to time hereafter, the applicable rate of interest hereunder shall be increased or decreased,
effective as of the day the Prime Rate is changed, by an amount equal to such change in the Prime Rate. All interest chargeable under the Loan Documents shall be computed on the basis of a 360 day year for the actual number of days elapsed.

  

	 	2.4	Crediting Payments. Prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default, Bank shall credit a wire transfer of funds, check or other item of payment to such deposit
account or Obligation as Borrower specifies, except that to the extent Borrower uses the Advances to purchase Collateral, Borrower’s repayment of the Advances shall apply on a “first-in-first-out” basis so that the portion of the
Advances used to purchase a particular item of Collateral shall be paid in the chronological order the Borrower purchased the Collateral. After the occurrence of an Event of Default, Bank shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to immediately
apply any wire transfer of funds, check, or other item of payment Bank may receive to conditionally reduce Obligations, but such applications of funds shall not be considered a payment on account unless such payment is of immediately available
federal funds or unless and until such check or other item of payment is honored when presented for payment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any wire transfer or payment received by Bank after 12:00 noon Pacific time shall
be deemed to have been received by Bank as of the opening of business on the immediately following Business Day. Whenever any payment to Bank under the Loan Documents would otherwise be due (except by reason of acceleration) on a date that is not a
Business Day, such payment shall instead be due on the next Business Day, and additional fees or interest, as the case may be, shall accrue and be payable for the period of such extension. 

 

	 	2.5	Fees. Borrower shall pay to Bank the following: 

  

	 	(a)	Facility Fee. (i) On the Closing Date and each anniversary of the Closing Date, a fee equal to $19,500 with respect to the Revolving Line and (ii) on
the Closing Date $25,500 with respect to the Equipment Line, all of which fees shall be nonrefundable; and 

  

	 	(b)	Bank Expenses. (i) On the Closing Date, all Bank Expenses incurred through the Closing Date; provided, however, that Borrower’s obligation to reimburse
Bank for legal fees shall be limited to $11,000 so long as there is only one turn of the Loan Documents based on comments received from Borrower or any third party, and, (ii) after the Closing Date, all Bank Expenses, as and when they become
due. 

  

 5 

	 	2.6	Term. This Agreement shall become effective on the Closing Date and, subject to Section 13.7, shall continue in full force and effect for so long as any
Obligations remain outstanding or Bank has any obligation to make Credit Extensions under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Bank shall have the right to terminate its obligation to make Credit Extensions under this Agreement immediately
and without notice upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default. 

  

	3.	CONDITIONS OF LOANS. 

  

	 	3.1	Conditions Precedent to Initial Credit Extension. The obligation of Bank to make the initial Credit Extension is subject to the condition precedent that Bank
shall have received, in form and substance satisfactory to Bank, the following: 

  

	 	(a)	this Agreement; 

  

	 	(b)	an officer’s certificate of Borrower with respect to incumbency and resolutions authorizing the execution and delivery of this Agreement; 

 

	 	(c)	financing statements (Form UCC-1) for Borrower and each of its domestic Subsidiaries; 

 

	 	(d)	agreement to provide insurance from Borrower; 

  

	 	(e)	payment of the fees and Bank Expenses then due specified in Section 2.5; 

 

	 	(f)	current SOS Reports indicating that except for Permitted Liens, there are no other security interests or Liens of record in the Collateral; 

 

	 	(g)	an audit of the Collateral, the results of which shall be satisfactory to Bank; 

 

	 	(h)	current financial statements, including company prepared consolidated balance sheets and income statements for the most recently ended month in accordance with
Section 6.2, and such other updated financial information as Bank may reasonably request; 

  

	 	(i)	current Compliance Certificate in accordance with Section 6.2; 

  

	 	(j)	a Warrant in form and substance satisfactory to Bank; 

  

	 	(k)	Guaranties from each of Borrower’s domestic Subsidiaries; 

  

	 	(l)	a Security Agreement from each of Borrower’s domestic Subsidiaries; 

  

	 	(m)	an agreement to provide insurance from each of Borrower’s domestic Subsidiaries; 

 

	 	(n)	an officer’s certificate of each of Borrower’s domestic Subsidiaries with respect to incumbency and resolutions authorizing the execution and delivery of a
Guaranty and a Security Agreement; 

  

	 	(o)	a payoff letter from each creditor whose loans to Borrower are being paid off with the proceeds of the Term Loan; 

 

 6 

	 	(p)	if the Shares are certificated, certificate(s) for the Shares, together with two instruments of assignment for each Share, duly executed in blank by Borrower;

  

	 	(q)	a control agreement, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Bank, governing the accounts maintained by Borrower at Morgan Stanley; and 

 

	 	(r)	such other documents or certificates, and completion of such other matters, as Bank may reasonably deem necessary or appropriate. 

 

	 	3.2	Conditions Precedent to all Credit Extensions. The obligation of Bank to make each Credit Extension, including the initial Credit Extension, is further subject
to the following conditions: 

  

	 	(a)	timely receipt by Bank of the Payment/Advance Form as provided in Section 2.1; and 

 

	 	(b)	the representations and warranties contained in Section 5 shall be true and correct in all material respects on and as of the date of such Payment/Advance Form and
on the effective date of each Credit Extension as though made at and as of each such date, and no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, or would exist after giving effect to such Credit Extension (provided, however, that those
representations and warranties expressly referring to another date shall be true, correct and complete in all material respects as of such date). The making of each Credit Extension shall be deemed to be a representation and warranty by Borrower on
the date of such Credit Extension as to the accuracy of the facts referred to in this Section 3.2. 

  

	4.	CREATION OF SECURITY INTEREST. 

  

	 	4.1	Grant of Security Interest. Borrower grants and pledges to Bank a continuing security interest in the Collateral to secure prompt repayment of any and all
Obligations and to secure prompt performance by Borrower of each of its covenants and duties under the Loan Documents. Except as set forth in the Schedule, such security interest constitutes a valid, first priority security interest in the presently
existing Collateral, and will constitute a valid, first priority security interest in later-acquired Collateral. Borrower also hereby agrees to not sell, transfer, assign, mortgage, pledge, lease, grant a security interest in, or encumber any of its
Intellectual Property. Notwithstanding any termination, Bank’s Lien on the Collateral shall remain in effect for so long as any Obligations are outstanding. 

 

	 	4.2	 Perfection of Security Interest. Borrower authorizes Bank to file at any time financing statements, continuation statements, and amendments
thereto that (i) either specifically describe the Collateral or describe the Collateral as all assets of Borrower of the kind pledged hereunder, and (ii) contain any other information required by the Code for the sufficiency of filing
office acceptance of any financing statement, continuation statement, or amendment, including whether Borrower is an organization, the type of organization and any organizational identification number issued to Borrower, if applicable. Any such
financing statements may be signed by Bank on behalf of Borrower, as provided in the Code, and may be filed at any time in any jurisdiction whether or not Revised Article 9 of the Code is then in effect in that jurisdiction. Borrower shall from time
to time endorse and deliver to Bank, at the request of Bank, all Negotiable Collateral and other documents that Bank may reasonably request, in form satisfactory to Bank, to perfect and continue perfected Bank’s security interests in the
Collateral and in order to fully consummate all of the transactions contemplated under the Loan Documents. Borrower shall have possession of the Collateral, except where expressly otherwise provided in this Agreement or where Bank chooses to perfect
its security interest by possession in addition to the filing of a financing statement. Where Collateral is in possession of a third party bailee, Borrower shall take such steps as Bank reasonably requests for Bank to (i) obtain an
acknowledgment, in form and substance satisfactory to Bank, of the bailee that the bailee holds such Collateral for the benefit of Bank, or (ii) obtain “control” of any Collateral consisting of investment property, deposit accounts,
letter-of-credit 

  

 7 

	 	
rights or electronic chattel paper (as such items and the term “control” are defined in Revised Article 9 of the Code) by causing the securities intermediary or depositary institution
or issuing bank to execute a control agreement in form and substance satisfactory to Bank. Borrower will not create any chattel paper without placing a legend on the chattel paper acceptable to Bank indicating that Bank has a security interest in
the chattel paper. Borrower from time to time may deposit with Bank specific cash collateral to secure specific Obligations; Borrower authorizes Bank to hold such specific balances in pledge and to decline to honor any drafts thereon or any request
by Borrower or any other Person to pay or otherwise transfer any part of such balances for so long as the specific Obligations are outstanding. 

  

	 	4.3	Right to Inspect. Bank (through any of its officers, employees, or agents) shall have the right, upon reasonable prior notice, from time to time during
Borrower’s usual business hours but no more than twice a year at Borrower’s expense, which expense shall not exceed $4,000 per year (unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing), to inspect Borrower’s Books and to make
copies thereof and to check, test, and appraise the Collateral in order to verify Borrower’s financial condition or the amount, condition of, or any other matter relating to, the Collateral. 

 

	 	4.4	Shares. Borrower hereby pledges, assigns and grants to Bank a security interest in all the Shares, together with all proceeds and substitutions thereof, all
cash, stock and other moneys and property paid thereon, all rights to subscribe for securities declared or granted in connection therewith, and all other cash and noncash proceeds of the foregoing, as security for the performance of the Obligations.
The certificate or certificates for the Shares, if any, will be delivered to Bank upon the Closing Date, accompanied by an instrument of assignment duly executed in blank by Borrower. Borrower will promptly, and in any event within five
(5) days of issuance, deliver to Bank any certificate or certificates at any time issued after the Closing Date representing any Shares, accompanied by an instrument of assignment duly executed in blank by Borrower. To the extent required by
the terms and conditions governing the Shares, Borrower shall cause the books of each entity whose Shares are part of the Collateral and any transfer agent to reflect the pledge of the Shares. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an
Event of Default hereunder, Bank may effect the transfer of any securities included in the Collateral into the name of Bank and cause new certificates representing such securities to be issued in the name of Bank or its transferee. Borrower will
execute and deliver such documents, and take or cause to be taken such actions, as Bank may reasonably request to perfect or continue the perfection of Bank’s security interest in the Shares and securities constituting Collateral. Unless an
Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Borrower shall be entitled to exercise any voting rights with respect to the Shares or other securities and to give consents, waivers and ratifications in respect thereof, provided that no vote
shall be cast or consent, waiver or ratification given or action taken which would be inconsistent with any of the terms of this Agreement or which would constitute or create any violation of any of such terms. All such rights to vote and give
consents, waivers and ratifications shall terminate upon the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default. 

  

	5.	REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. 

Except as set forth on the Schedule, Borrower represents and warrants as follows: 

 

	 	5.1	Due Organization and Qualification. Borrower and each Subsidiary is a corporation duly existing under the laws of the state or jurisdiction in which it is
incorporated and qualified and licensed to do business in any state or jurisdiction in which the conduct of its business or its ownership of property requires that it be so qualified, except where the failure to do so would not reasonably be
expected to cause a Material Adverse Effect. 

  

	 	5.2	Due Authorization; No Conflict. The execution, delivery, and performance of the Loan Documents are within Borrower’s powers, have been duly authorized, and
are not in conflict with nor constitute a breach of any provision contained in Borrower’s Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws, nor will they constitute an event of default under any material agreement by which Borrower is bound. Borrower is
not in default under any agreement by which it is bound, except to the extent such default would not reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Effect. 

 

 8 

	 	5.3	Collateral. Borrower has rights in or the power to transfer the Collateral, and its title to the Collateral is free and clear of Liens, adverse claims, and
restrictions on transfer or pledge except for Permitted Liens. All Collateral is located solely in the Collateral States. All Inventory is in all material respects of good and merchantable quality, free from all material defects, except for
Inventory for which adequate reserves have been made. Except as set forth in the Schedule, none of the Collateral is maintained or invested with a Person other than Bank or Bank’s Affiliates. 

 

	 	5.4	Intellectual Property. Borrower is the sole owner of the Intellectual Property, except for licenses granted by Borrower to its customers in the ordinary course
of business. To the best of Borrower’s knowledge, each of the Copyrights, Trademarks and Patents is valid and enforceable, and no part of the Intellectual Property has been judged invalid or unenforceable, in whole or in part, and no claim has
been made to Borrower that any part of the Intellectual Property violates the rights of any third party except to the extent such claim would not reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Effect. 

 

	 	5.5	Name; Location of Chief Executive Office. Except as disclosed in the Schedule, Borrower has not done business under any name other than that specified on the
signature page hereof, and its exact legal name is as set forth in the first paragraph of this Agreement. The chief executive office of Borrower is located in the Chief Executive Office State at the address indicated in Section 10 hereof.

  

	 	5.6	Litigation. Except as set forth in the Schedule, there are no actions or proceedings pending by or against Borrower or any Subsidiary before any court or
administrative agency in which a likely adverse decision would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

  

	 	5.7	No Material Adverse Change in Financial Statements. All consolidated and consolidating financial statements related to Borrower and any Subsidiary that are
delivered by Borrower to Bank fairly present in all material respects Borrower’s consolidated and consolidating financial condition as of the date thereof and Borrower’s consolidated and consolidating results of operations for the period
then ended. There has not been a material adverse change in the consolidated or in the consolidating financial condition of Borrower since the date of the most recent of such financial statements submitted to Bank. 

 

	 	5.8	Solvency, Payment of Debts. Borrower is able to pay its debts (including trade debts) as they mature; the fair saleable value of Borrower’s assets
(including goodwill minus disposition costs) exceeds the fair value of its liabilities; and Borrower is not left with unreasonably small capital after the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. 

 

	 	5.9	 Compliance with Laws and Regulations. Borrower and each Subsidiary have met the minimum funding requirements of ERISA with respect to any
employee benefit plans subject to ERISA. No event has occurred resulting from Borrower’s failure to comply with ERISA that is reasonably likely to result in Borrower’s incurring any liability that could have a Material Adverse Effect.
Borrower is not an “investment company” or a company “controlled” by an “investment company” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940. Borrower is not engaged principally, or as one of the important
activities, in the business of extending credit for the purpose of purchasing or carrying margin stock (within the meaning of Regulations T and U of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System). Borrower has complied in all material
respects with all the provisions of the Federal Fair Labor Standards Act. Borrower is in compliance with all environmental laws, regulations and ordinances except where the failure to comply is not reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse
Effect. Borrower has not violated any statutes, laws, ordinances or rules applicable to it, the violation of which would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Borrower and each Subsidiary have filed or caused to be filed all tax

  

 9 

	 	
returns required to be filed, and have paid, or have made adequate provision for the payment of, all taxes reflected therein except those being contested in good faith with adequate reserves
under GAAP or where the failure to file such returns or pay such taxes would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

  

	 	5.10	Subsidiaries. Borrower does not own any stock, partnership interest or other equity securities of any Person, except for Permitted Investments and except as
listed on the Schedule. 

  

	 	5.11	Government Consents. Borrower and each Subsidiary have obtained all consents, approvals and authorizations of, made all declarations or filings with, and given
all notices to, all governmental authorities that are necessary for the continued operation of Borrower’s business as currently conducted, except where the failure to do so would not reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Effect.

  

	 	5.12	Inbound Licenses. Except as disclosed on the Schedule, Borrower is not a party to, nor is bound by, any license or other agreement that prohibits or otherwise
restricts Borrower from granting a security interest in Borrower’s interest in such license or agreement or any other property. 

  

	 	5.13	Shares. Borrower has full power and authority to create a first lien on the Shares and no disability or contractual obligation exists that would prohibit
Borrower from pledging the Shares pursuant to this Agreement. There are no subscriptions, warrants, rights of first refusal or other restrictions on, or options exercisable with respect to the Shares. The Shares have been and will be duly authorized
and validly issued, and are fully paid and non-assessable. To the best of Borrower’s knowledge, the Shares are not the subject of any present or threatened suit, action, arbitration, administrative or other proceeding, and Borrower knows of no
reasonable grounds for the institution of any such proceedings. 

  

	 	5.14	Full Disclosure. No representation, warranty or other statement made by Borrower in any certificate or written statement furnished to Bank taken together with
all such certificates and written statements furnished to Bank contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained in such certificates or statements not misleading,
it being recognized by Bank that the projections and forecasts provided by Borrower in good faith and based upon reasonable assumptions are not to be viewed as facts and that actual results during the period or periods covered by any such
projections and forecasts may differ from the projected or forecasted results.

Credit Extension hereunder, Borrower shall do all of the following: 
  

	 	6.1	Good Standing and Government Compliance. Borrower shall maintain its and each of its Subsidiaries’ corporate existence and good standing in the Borrower
State (or with respect to any Subsidiary not organized in the Borrower State, such state or jurisdiction in which such Subsidiary is organized), shall maintain qualification and good standing in each other jurisdiction in which the failure to so
qualify would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, and shall furnish to Bank the organizational identification number issued to Borrower by the authorities of the state in which Borrower is organized, if applicable. Borrower
shall meet, and shall cause each Subsidiary to meet, the minimum funding requirements of ERISA with respect to any employee benefit plans subject to ERISA. Borrower shall comply in all material respects with all applicable Environmental Laws, and
maintain all material permits, licenses and approvals required thereunder where the failure to do so would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Borrower shall comply, and shall cause each Subsidiary to comply, with all statutes,
laws, ordinances and government rules and regulations to which it is subject, and shall maintain, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to maintain, in force all licenses, approvals and agreements, the loss of which or failure to comply with
which would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

  

 10

calendar month, company prepared consolidated and consolidating balance sheets and income statements covering Borrower’s operations during such period, prepared in accordance with GAAP, consistently applied, in a form reasonably acceptable to

	 	(d)	Bank shall have a right from time to time hereafter to audit Borrower’s Accounts and appraise Collateral, provided that such audits will be conducted no
more often than every 6 months at Bank’s expense, which expense shall not exceed $4,000 per 12 month period, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. 

Borrower may deliver to Bank on an electronic basis any certificates, reports or information required pursuant to this Section 6.2,
and Bank shall be entitled to rely on the information contained in the electronic files, provided that Bank in good faith believes that the files were delivered by a Responsible Officer. If Borrower delivers this information electronically, it shall
also deliver to Bank by U.S. Mail, reputable overnight courier service, hand delivery, facsimile or .pdf file within 5 Business Days of submission of the unsigned electronic copy the certification of monthly financial statements, the intellectual
property report, and the Compliance Certificate, each bearing the physical signature of the Responsible Officer.

	 	6.3	Inventory; Returns. Borrower shall keep all Inventory in good and merchantable condition, free from all material defects except for Inventory for which adequate
reserves have been made. Returns and allowances, if any, as between Borrower and its account debtors shall be on the same basis and in accordance with the usual customary practices of Borrower, as they exist on the Closing Date. Borrower shall
promptly notify Bank of all returns and recoveries and of all disputes and claims involving more than $100,000.

good faith by appropriate proceedings and is reserved against (to the extent required by GAAP) by Borrower. 

  

	 	6.5	Insurance. 

  

	 	(a)	Borrower, at its expense, shall keep the Collateral insured against loss or damage by fire, theft, explosion, sprinklers, and all other hazards and risks, and in
such amounts, as ordinarily insured against by other owners in similar businesses conducted in the locations where Borrower’s business is conducted on the date hereof. Borrower shall also maintain liability and other insurance in amounts and of
a type that are customary to businesses similar to Borrower’s. 

  

	 	(b)	All such policies of insurance shall be in such form, with such companies, and in such amounts as reasonably satisfactory to Bank. All policies of property
insurance shall contain a lender’s loss payable endorsement, in a form satisfactory to Bank, showing Bank as an additional loss payee, and all liability insurance policies shall show Bank as an additional insured and specify that the insurer

least 1.50 to 1.00, tested on a monthly basis. 

  

	 	6.8	Registration of Intellectual Property Rights. 

  

	 	(a)	Borrower shall register or cause to be registered on an expedited basis (to the extent not already registered) with the United States Patent and Trademark Office
or the United States Copyright Office, as the case may be, those registrable intellectual property rights now owned or hereafter developed or acquired by Borrower, to the extent that Borrower, in its reasonable business judgment, deems it
appropriate to so protect such intellectual property rights. 

  

	 	(b)	Borrower shall give Bank prompt written notice of the filing of any applications or registrations with the United States Copyright Office, including the title of such
intellectual property rights registered, the title appearing on such applications or registrations, and the filing date of such applications or registrations.

commercially reasonable efforts to detect infringements of the Trademarks, Patents and Copyrights and promptly advise Bank in writing of material infringements detected and (iii) not allow any material Trademarks, Patents or Copyrights to be
abandoned, forfeited or dedicated to the public without the written consent of Bank, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. 

  

	 	6.9	Inbound Licenses. Within 25 days after the end of each fiscal quarter of Borrower, Borrower shall deliver an executed copy of each material (currently material
or reasonably expected to become material to Borrower’s business) inbound license agreement entered into by Borrower during such fiscal quarter. 

  

	 	6.10	Creation/Acquisition of Subsidiaries. In the event Borrower or any Subsidiary creates or acquires any Subsidiary, Borrower and such Subsidiary shall promptly
notify Bank of the creation or acquisition of such new Subsidiary and take all such action as may be reasonably required by Bank to cause such Subsidiary (if such Subsidiary is a domestic Subsidiary) to guarantee the Obligations of Borrower under
the Loan, and, if such Subsidiary is a material Subsidiary and a foreign company, Borrower shall grant and pledge to Bank a perfected security interest in 65% of the stock, units or other evidence of ownership of such Subsidiary.

  

	 	6.11	Further Assurances. At any time and from time to time Borrower shall execute and deliver such further instruments and take such further action as may reasonably
be requested by Bank to effect the purposes of this Agreement. 

  

	7.	NEGATIVE COVENANTS. 

Borrower covenants and agrees that, so long as any credit hereunder shall be available and until the outstanding Obligations are paid in

and (ii) repurchase the stock of former employees pursuant to stock repurchase agreements by the cancellation of indebtedness owed by such former employees to Borrower regardless of whether an Event of Default exists, and (iii) repurchase
stock from stockholders owning less than 1% of the outstanding equity securities for aggregate consideration of less than $30,000 in any twelve month period and $5,000 in each instance and (B) Subsidiaries of Borrower may pay dividends to

	 	7.7	Investments. Directly or indirectly acquire or own, or make any Investment in or to any Person, or permit any of its Subsidiaries so to do, other than Permitted

Bank, or suffer or permit any Subsidiary to be a party to, or be bound by, an agreement that restricts such Subsidiary from paying dividends or otherwise distributing property to Borrower. 

 

	 	7.8	Transactions with Affiliates. Directly or indirectly enter into or permit to exist any material transaction with any Affiliate of Borrower except for
transactions that are in the ordinary course of Borrower’s business, upon fair and reasonable terms that are no less favorable to Borrower than would be obtained in an arm’s length transaction with a non-affiliated Person or are otherwise

Agreement; or 

  

	 	(b)	If Borrower fails or neglects to perform or observe any other material term, provision, condition, covenant contained in this Agreement, in any of the Loan
Documents, or in any other present or future agreement between Borrower and Bank and as to any default under such other term, provision, condition or covenant that can be cured, has failed to cure such default within 10 days after Borrower receives
notice thereof or any officer of Borrower becomes aware thereof; provided, however, that, except with respect to violations of Sections 6.1, 6.3 or 6.8, if the default cannot by its nature be cured within the 10 day period or cannot after diligent
attempts by Borrower be cured within such 10 day period, and such default is likely to be cured within a reasonable time, then Borrower shall have an additional reasonable period (which shall not in any case exceed 30 days) to attempt to cure such
default, and within such reasonable time period the failure to have cured such default shall not be deemed an Event of Default but no Credit Extensions will be made; 

 

	 	8.3	Material Adverse Change. If there is a material impairment in the prospect of repayment of any portion of the Obligations or a material impairment in the
perfection, value or priority of Bank’s security interests in the Collateral;

Borrower’s or any Subsidiary’s assets, or if a notice of lien, levy, or assessment is filed of record with respect to any of Borrower’s or any Subsidiary’s assets by the United States Government, or any department, agency, or
instrumentality thereof, or by any state, county, municipal, or governmental agency, and the same is not paid within ten days after Borrower or any Subsidiary receives notice thereof, provided that none of the foregoing shall constitute an Event of

	 	8.6	Insolvency. If Borrower or any Subsidiary becomes insolvent, or if an Insolvency Proceeding is commenced by Borrower or any Subsidiary, or if an Insolvency
Proceeding is commenced against Borrower or any Subsidiary and is not dismissed or stayed within 30 days (provided that no Credit Extensions will be made prior to the dismissal of such Insolvency Proceeding); 

 

	 	8.7	Other Agreements. If there is a default or other failure to perform in any agreement to which Borrower or any Subsidiary is a party with a third party or parties

	 	8.11	Guaranty. If any guaranty of all or a portion of the Obligations (a “Guaranty”) ceases for any reason to be in full force and effect, or any guarantor
fails to perform any obligation under any Guaranty or a security agreement securing any Guaranty (collectively, the “Guaranty Documents”), or any event of default occurs under any Guaranty Document or any guarantor revokes or purports to
revoke a Guaranty, or any material misrepresentation or material misstatement exists now or hereafter in any warranty or representation set forth in any Guaranty Document or in any certificate delivered to Bank in connection with any Guaranty

	9.	BANK’S RIGHTS AND REMEDIES. 

  

	 	9.1	Rights and Remedies. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Bank may, at its election, without notice of its election and without
demand, do any one or more of the following, all of which are authorized by Borrower: 

  

	 	(a)	Declare all Obligations, whether evidenced by this Agreement, by any of the other Loan Documents, or otherwise, immediately due and payable (provided that upon
the occurrence of an Event of Default described in Section 8.6 (insolvency), all Obligations shall become immediately due and payable without any action by Bank); 

 

	 	(b)	Demand that Borrower (i) deposit cash with Bank in an amount equal to the amount of any Letters of Credit remaining undrawn, as collateral security for the
repayment of any future drawings under such Letters of Credit, and (ii) pay in advance all Letter of Credit fees scheduled to be paid or payable over the remaining term of the Letters of Credit, and Borrower shall promptly deposit and pay such
amounts; 

  

	 	(c)	Cease advancing money or extending credit to or for the benefit of Borrower under this Agreement or under any other agreement between Borrower and Bank;

  

	 	(d)	Settle or adjust disputes and claims directly with account debtors for amounts, upon terms and in whatever order that Bank reasonably considers advisable;

  

	 	(e)	Make such payments and do such acts as Bank considers necessary or reasonable to protect its security interest in the Collateral. Borrower agrees to assemble the
Collateral if Bank so requires, and to make the Collateral available to Bank as Bank may designate. Borrower authorizes Bank to enter the premises where the Collateral is located, to take and maintain possession of the Collateral, or any part of it,
and to pay, purchase, contest, or compromise any encumbrance, charge, or lien which in Bank’s determination appears to be prior or superior to its security interest and to pay all expenses incurred in connection therewith. With respect to any
of Borrower’s owned premises, Borrower hereby grants Bank a license to enter into possession of such premises and to occupy the same, without charge, in order to exercise any of Bank’s rights or remedies provided herein, at law, in equity,
or otherwise; 

  

	 	(f)	Set off and apply to the Obligations any and all (i) balances and deposits of Borrower held by Bank, and (ii) indebtedness at any time owing to or for
the credit or the account of Borrower held by Bank; 

  

	 	(g)	Ship, reclaim, recover, store, finish, maintain, repair, prepare for sale, advertise for sale, and sell (in the manner provided for herein) the Collateral. Bank
is hereby granted a license or other right, solely pursuant to the provisions of this Section 9.1, to use, without charge, Borrower’s labels, patents, copyrights, rights of use of any name, trade secrets, trade names, trademarks, service
marks, and advertising matter, or any property of a similar nature, as it pertains to the Collateral, in completing production of, advertising for sale, and selling any Collateral and, in connection with Bank’s exercise of its rights under this
Section 9.1, Borrower’s rights under all licenses and all franchise agreements shall inure to Bank’s benefit; 

  

	 	(h)	 Sell the Collateral at either a public or private sale, or both, by way of one or more contracts or transactions, for cash or on terms, in such
manner and at such places (including Borrower’s premises) as Bank determines is commercially reasonable, and apply any proceeds to the Obligations in whatever manner or order Bank deems appropriate. Bank may sell the Collateral without giving
any warranties as to the Collateral. Bank may specifically disclaim any warranties of title or the like. This procedure will not be considered adversely to affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale of the Collateral. If Bank sells any of the
Collateral upon credit, Borrower will 

  

 17 

	 	
be credited only with payments actually made by the purchaser, received by Bank, and applied to the indebtedness of the purchaser. If the purchaser fails to pay for the Collateral, Bank may
resell the Collateral and Borrower shall be credited with the proceeds of the sale; 

  

	 	(i)	Bank may credit bid and purchase at any public sale; 

  

	 	(j)	Apply for the appointment of a receiver, trustee, liquidator or conservator of the Collateral, without notice and without regard to the adequacy of the security
for the Obligations and without regard to the solvency of Borrower, any guarantor or any other Person liable for any of the Obligations; and 

  

	 	(k)	Any deficiency that exists after disposition of the Collateral as provided above will be paid immediately by Borrower. 

Bank may comply with any applicable state or federal law requirements in connection with a disposition of the Collateral and compliance
will not be considered adversely to affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale of the Collateral. 
  

	 	9.2	Power of Attorney. Effective only upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints Bank (and any of
Bank’s designated officers, or employees) as Borrower’s true and lawful attorney to: (a) send requests for verification of Accounts or notify account debtors of Bank’s security interest in the Accounts; (b) endorse
Borrower’s name on any checks or other forms of payment or security that may come into Bank’s possession; (c) sign Borrower’s name on any invoice or bill of lading relating to any Account, drafts against account debtors,
schedules and assignments of Accounts, verifications of Accounts, and notices to account debtors; (d) dispose of any Collateral; (e) make, settle, and adjust all claims under and decisions with respect to Borrower’s policies of
insurance; (f) settle and adjust disputes and claims respecting the accounts directly with account debtors, for amounts and upon terms which Bank determines to be reasonable; (g) enter into a short-form intellectual property security
agreement consistent with the terms of this Agreement for recording purposes only or modify, in its sole discretion, any intellectual property security agreement entered into between Borrower and Bank without first obtaining Borrower’s approval
of or signature to such modification by amending Exhibits A, B, and C, thereof, as appropriate, to include reference to any right, title or interest in any Copyrights, Patents or Trademarks acquired by Borrower after the execution hereof or to
delete any reference to any right, title or interest in any Copyrights, Patents or Trademarks in which Borrower no longer has or claims to have any right, title or interest; and (h) file, in its sole discretion, one or more financing or
continuation statements and amendments thereto, relative to any of the Collateral without the signature of Borrower where permitted by law; provided Bank may exercise such power of attorney to sign the name of Borrower on any of the documents
described in clauses (g) and (h) above, regardless of whether an Event of Default has occurred. The appointment of Bank as Borrower’s attorney in fact, and each and every one of Bank’s rights and powers, being coupled with an
interest, is irrevocable until all of the Obligations have been fully repaid and performed and Bank’s obligation to provide advances hereunder is terminated. 

 

	 	9.3	Accounts Collection. At any time after the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, Bank may notify any Person owing funds to Borrower of
Bank’s security interest in such funds and verify the amount of such Account. Borrower shall collect all amounts owing to Borrower for Bank, receive in trust all payments as Bank’s trustee, and immediately deliver such payments to Bank in
their original form as received from the account debtor, with proper endorsements for deposit. 

  

	 	9.4	 Bank Expenses. If Borrower fails to pay any amounts or furnish any required proof of payment due to third persons or entities, as required under
the terms of this Agreement, then Bank may do any or all of the following after reasonable notice to Borrower: (a) make payment of the same or

any part thereof; (b) set up such reserves under the Revolving Line as Bank deems necessary to protect Bank from the exposure created by such failure; or (c) obtain and maintain
insurance policies of the type discussed in Section 6.5 of this Agreement, and take any action with respect to such policies as Bank deems prudent. Any amounts so paid or deposited by Bank shall constitute Bank Expenses, shall be immediately
due and payable, and shall bear interest at the then applicable rate hereinabove provided, and shall be secured by the Collateral. Any payments made by Bank shall not constitute an agreement by Bank to make similar payments in the future or a waiver
by Bank of any Event of Default under this Agreement. 

  

	 	9.5	Bank’s Liability for Collateral. Bank has no obligation to clean up or otherwise prepare the Collateral for sale. All risk of loss, damage or destruction of
the Collateral shall be borne by Borrower. 

  

	 	9.6	No Obligation to Pursue Others. Bank has no obligation to attempt to satisfy the Obligations by collecting them from any other person liable for them and Bank
may release, modify or waive any collateral provided by any other Person to secure any of the Obligations, all without affecting Bank’s rights against Borrower. Borrower waives any right it may have to require Bank to pursue any other Person
for any of the Obligations. 

  

	 	9.7	Remedies Cumulative. Bank’s rights and remedies under this Agreement, the Loan Documents, and all other agreements shall be cumulative. Bank shall have all
other rights and remedies not inconsistent herewith as provided under the Code, by law, or in equity. No exercise by Bank of one right or remedy shall be deemed an election, and no waiver by Bank of any Event of Default on Borrower’s part shall
be deemed a continuing waiver. No delay by Bank shall constitute a waiver, election, or acquiescence by it. No waiver by Bank shall be effective unless made in a written document signed on behalf of Bank and then shall be effective only in the
specific instance and for the specific purpose for which it was given. Borrower expressly agrees that this Section 9.7 may not be waived or modified by Bank by course of performance, conduct, estoppel or otherwise. 

 

	 	9.8	Demand; Protest. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, Borrower waives demand, protest, notice of protest, notice of default or dishonor, notice of

	11.	CHOICE OF LAW AND VENUE: JURY TRIAL WAIVER. 

This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the internal laws of the State of California, without regard to
principles of conflicts of law. Each of Borrower and Bank hereby submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and Federal courts located in the County of Santa Clara, State of California. THE UNDERSIGNED ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY
JURY IS A CONSTITUTIONAL ONE, BUT THAT IT MAY BE WAIVED UNDER CERTAIN CIRCUMSTANCES. TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, EACH PARTY, AFTER CONSULTING (OR HAVING HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO CONSULT) WITH COUNSEL OF ITS CHOICE, KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY, AND
FOR THE MUTUAL BENEFIT OF ALL PARTIES, WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER DOCUMENT, INSTRUMENT OR AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE UNDERSIGNED PARTIES. 

 

	12.	JUDICIAL REFERENCE PROVISION. 

  

	 	(a)	In the event the Jury Trial Waiver set forth above is not enforceable, the parties elect to proceed under this Judicial Reference Provision.

  

	 	(b)	With the exception of the items specified in clause (c), below, any controversy, dispute or claim (each, a “Claim”) between the parties arising out of
or relating to this Agreement or any other document, instrument or agreement between the undersigned parties (collectively in this Section, the “Comerica Documents), will be resolved by a reference proceeding in California in accordance with
the provisions of Sections 638 et seq. of the California Code of Civil Procedure (“CCP”), or their successor sections, which shall constitute the exclusive remedy for the resolution of any Claim, including whether the Claim is subject to
the reference proceeding. Except as otherwise provided in the Comerica Documents, venue for the reference proceeding will be in the state or federal court in the county or district where the real property involved in the action, if any, is located
or in the state or federal court in the county or district where venue is otherwise appropriate under applicable law (the “Court”). 

  

	 	(c)	The matters that shall not be subject to a reference are the following: (i) nonjudicial foreclosure of any security interests in real or personal property,
(ii) exercise of self-help remedies (including, without limitation, set-off), (iii) appointment of a receiver and (iv) temporary, provisional or ancillary remedies (including, without limitation, writs of attachment, writs of
possession, temporary restraining orders or preliminary injunctions). This reference provision does not limit the right of any party to exercise or oppose any of the rights and remedies described in clauses (i) and (ii) or to seek or
oppose from a court of competent jurisdiction any of the items described in clauses (iii) and (iv). The exercise of, or opposition to, any of those items does not waive the right of any party to a reference pursuant to this reference provision
as provided herein. 

  

	 	(d)	 The referee shall be a retired judge or justice selected by mutual written agreement of the parties. If the parties do not agree within ten
(10) days of a written request to do so by any party, then, upon request of any party, the referee shall be selected by the Presiding 

 

 20 

	 	
Judge of the Court (or his or her representative). A request for appointment of a referee may be heard on an ex parte or expedited basis, and the parties agree that irreparable harm would result
if ex parte relief is not granted. Pursuant to CCP § 170.6, each party shall have one peremptory challenge to the referee selected by the Presiding Judge of the Court (or his or her representative). 

 

	 	(e)	The parties agree that time is of the essence in conducting the reference proceedings. Accordingly, the referee shall be requested, subject to change in the time
periods specified herein for good cause shown, to (i) set the matter for a status and trial-setting conference within fifteen (15) days after the date of selection of the referee, (ii) if practicable, try all issues of law or fact
within one hundred twenty (120) days after the date of the conference and (iii) report a statement of decision within twenty (20) days after the matter has been submitted for decision. 

 

	 	(f)	The referee will have power to expand or limit the amount and duration of discovery. The referee may set or extend discovery deadlines or cutoffs for good cause,
including a party’s failure to provide requested discovery for any reason whatsoever. Unless otherwise ordered based upon good cause shown, no party shall be entitled to “priority” in conducting discovery, depositions may be taken by
either party upon seven (7) days written notice, and all other discovery shall be responded to within fifteen (15) days after service. All disputes relating to discovery which cannot be resolved by the parties shall be submitted to the
referee whose decision shall be final and binding. 

  

	 	(g)	Except as expressly set forth herein, the referee shall determine the manner in which the reference proceeding is conducted including the time and place of hearings,
the order of presentation of evidence, and all other questions that arise with respect to the course of the reference proceeding. All proceedings and hearings conducted before the referee, except for trial, shall be conducted without a court
reporter, except that when any party so requests, a court reporter will be used at any hearing conducted before the referee, and the referee will be provided a courtesy copy of the transcript. The party making such a request shall have the
obligation to arrange for and pay the court reporter. Subject to the referee’s power to award costs to the prevailing party, the parties will equally share the cost of the referee and the court reporter at trial. 

 

	 	(h)	The referee shall be required to determine all issues in accordance with existing case law and the statutory laws of the State of California. The rules of evidence
applicable to proceedings at law in the State of California will be applicable to the reference proceeding. The referee shall be empowered to enter equitable as well as legal relief, enter equitable orders that will be binding on the parties and
rule on any motion which would be authorized in a court proceeding, including without limitation motions for summary judgment or summary adjudication. The referee shall issue a decision at the close of the reference proceeding which disposes of all
claims of the parties that are the subject of the reference. Pursuant to CCP § 644, such decision shall be entered by the Court as a judgment or an order in the same manner as if the action had been tried by the Court and any such decision will
be final, binding and conclusive. The parties reserve the right to appeal from the final judgment or order or from any appealable decision or order entered by the referee. The parties reserve the right to findings of fact, conclusions of laws, a
written statement of decision, and the right to move for a new trial or a different judgment, which new trial, if granted, is also to be a reference proceeding under this provision. 

 

	 	(i)	If the enabling legislation which provides for appointment of a referee is repealed (and no successor statute is enacted), any dispute between the parties that would
otherwise be determined by reference procedure will be resolved and determined by arbitration. The arbitration will be conducted by a retired judge or justice, in accordance with the California Arbitration Act § 1280 through § 1294.2 of
the CCP as amended from time to time. The limitations with respect to discovery set forth above shall apply to any such arbitration proceeding. 

  

 21 

	 	(j)	THE PARTIES RECOGNIZE AND AGREE THAT ALL CONTROVERSIES, DISPUTES AND CLAIMS RESOLVED UNDER THIS REFERENCE PROVISION WILL BE DECIDED BY A REFEREE AND NOT BY A JURY.
AFTER CONSULTING (OR HAVING HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO CONSULT) WITH COUNSEL OF ITS OWN CHOICE, EACH PARTY KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY, AND FOR THE MUTUAL BENEFIT OF ALL PARTIES, AGREES THAT THIS REFERENCE PROVISION WILL APPLY TO ANY CONTROVERSY, DISPUTE
OR CLAIM BETWEEN OR AMONG THEM ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY RELATED TO, THIS AGREEMENT OR THE OTHER COMERICA DOCUMENTS. 

  

	13.	GENERAL PROVISIONS. 

  

	 	13.1	Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of the respective successors and permitted assigns of each of the parties and shall
bind all persons who become bound as a debtor to this Agreement; provided, however, that neither this Agreement nor any rights hereunder may be assigned by Borrower without Bank’s prior written consent, which consent may be granted or withheld
in Bank’s sole discretion. Bank shall have the right without the consent of or notice to Borrower to sell, transfer, negotiate, or grant participation in all or any part of, or any interest in, Bank’s obligations, rights and benefits
hereunder. 

  

	 	13.2	Indemnification. Borrower shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless Bank and its officers, employees, and agents against: (a) all obligations, demands,
claims, and liabilities claimed or asserted by any other party in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; and (b) all losses or Bank Expenses in any way suffered, incurred, or paid by Bank, its officers, employees and
agents as a result of or in any way arising out of, following, or consequential to transactions between Bank and Borrower whether under this Agreement, or otherwise (including without limitation reasonable attorneys fees and expenses), except for
losses caused by Bank’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. 

  

	 	13.3	Time of Essence. Time is of the essence for the performance of all obligations set forth in this Agreement. 

 

	 	13.4	Severability of Provisions. Each provision of this Agreement shall be severable from every other provision of this Agreement for the purpose of determining the
legal enforceability of any specific provision. 

  

	 	13.5	Amendments in Writing, Integration. All amendments to or terminations of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents must be in writing. All prior agreements,
understandings, representations, warranties, and negotiations between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, if any, are merged into this Agreement and the Loan Documents.

  

	 	13.6	Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties on separate counterparts, each of which, when executed and
delivered, shall be deemed to be an original, and all of which, when taken together, shall constitute but one and the same Agreement. 

  

 22 

	 	13.7	Survival. All covenants, representations and warranties made in this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect so long as any Obligations remain
outstanding or Bank has any obligation to make any Credit Extension to Borrower. The obligations of Borrower to indemnify Bank with respect to the expenses, damages, losses, costs and liabilities described in Section 13.2 shall survive until
all applicable statute of limitations periods with respect to actions that may be brought against Bank have run. 

  

	 	13.8	Confidentiality. In handling any confidential information, Bank and all employees and agents of Bank shall exercise the same degree of care that Bank exercises
with respect to its own proprietary information of the same types to maintain the confidentiality of any non-public information thereby received or received pursuant to this Agreement except that disclosure of such information may be made
(i) to the subsidiaries or Affiliates of Bank in connection with their present or prospective business relations with Borrower, (ii) to prospective transferees or purchasers of any interest in the Loans, provided that they have entered
into a comparable confidentiality agreement in favor of Borrower and have delivered a copy to Borrower, (iii) as required by law, regulations, rule or order, subpoena, judicial order or similar order, (iv) as may be required in connection
with the examination, audit or similar investigation of Bank and (v) as Bank may determine in connection with the enforcement of any remedies hereunder. Confidential information hereunder shall not include information that either: (a) is
in the public domain or in the knowledge or possession of Bank when disclosed to Bank, or becomes part of the public domain after disclosure to Bank through no fault of Bank; or (b) is disclosed to Bank by a third party, provided Bank does not
have actual knowledge that such third party is prohibited from disclosing such information.

 COLLATERAL DESCRIPTION 

All personal property of Debtor of every kind, whether presently existing or hereafter created or acquired, and wherever located,
including but not limited to: (a) all accounts (including health-care-insurance receivables), chattel paper (including tangible and electronic chattel paper), deposit accounts, documents (including negotiable documents), equipment (including
all accessions and additions thereto), general intangibles (including payment intangibles and software), goods (including fixtures), instruments (including promissory notes), inventory (including all goods held for sale or lease or to be furnished
under a contract of service, and including returns and repossessions), investment property (including securities and securities entitlements), letter of credit rights, money, and all of Debtor’s books and records with respect to any of the
foregoing, and the computers and equipment containing said books and records; and (b) any and all cash proceeds and/or noncash proceeds thereof, including, without limitation, insurance proceeds, and all supporting obligations and the security

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Collateral shall not include any copyrights, patents, trademarks, servicemarks and applications

in the Note or in the notice of conversion as provided in this Addendum; and 

  

	 	(2)	thereafter, each period commencing on the last day of the next preceding LIBOR Period applicable to such LIBOR Option Advance and continuing for, in every case, a 30,

 2. Interest Rate Options. Borrower shall have the following options
regarding the interest rate to be paid by Borrower on Advances under the Note:

Bank’s LIBOR, (the “LIBOR Option”), which LIBOR Option shall be in effect during the relevant LIBOR Period; or 

b. A rate equal to the Applicable Margin plus the “Prime Rate” as referenced in the Note and quoted from time to time by Bank
as such rate may change from time to time (the “Prime Rate Option”). 
 3. LIBOR Option Advance. 

a. The minimum USOR Option Advance will not be less than $250,000 and 00/100 Dollars ($250,000) for any LIBOR Option Advance. 

b. There shall be no more than three (3) LIBOR Periods outstanding at any one time. 

4. Payment of Interest on LIBOR Option Advances. Interest on each LIBOR Option Advance shall be payable pursuant to the terms of the Note.

 5. Bank’s Records Re: LIBOR Option Advances. With respect to each LIBOR Option Advance, Bank is hereby authorized to note the
date, principal amount, interest rate and LIBOR Period applicable thereto and any payments made thereon on Bank’s books and records (either manually or by electronic entry) and/or on any schedule attached to the Note, which notations shall be
prima facie evidence of the accuracy of the information noted. 
 6. Selection/Conversion of Interest Rate Options. At the time any
Advance is requested under the. Note and/or Borrower wishes to select the LIBOR Option for all or a portion of the outstanding principal balance of the Note, and at the end of each LIBOR Period, Borrower shall give Bank notice specifying
(a) the intere.st rate option selected by Borrower; (b) the principal amount Subject thereto; and (c) if the LIBOR Option is selected, the length of the applicable LIBOR Period. Any such notice may be given by telephone so long as,
with respect to each LIBOR Option selected by Borrower, (i) Bank receives written confirmation from Borrower not later than three (3) UBO~ Business Days after such telephone notice is given; and (ii) such notice is given to Bank prior
to 10:00 a.m., California time, on the first day of the LIBOR Period. For each LIBOR Option requested hereunder, Bank will quote the applicable fixed LIBOR Rate to Borrower at approximately 10:00 a.m., California time, on the first day of the LIBOR
Period. If Borrower does not immediately accept the rate quoted by Bank, any subsequent acceptance by Borrower shall be subject to a redetermination of the rate by Bank; provided, however, that if Borrower fails to accept any such quotation given,
then the quoted rate shall expire and Bank shall have no obligation to permit a LIBOR Option to be selected on such day. If no specific designation of interest is made at the time any Advance is requested under the Note or at the end of any LIBOR
Period, Borrower shall be deemed to have selected the Prime Rate Option for such Advance or the principal amount to which such LIBOR Period applied. At any time the LIBOR Option is in effect, Borrower may, at the end of the applicable LIBOR Period,
convert to the Prime Rate Option. At any time the Prime Rate Option is in effect, Borrower may convert to the LIBOR OPTION, and shall designate a LIBOR Period. 

7. Default Interest Rate. Upon the occurrence of a Default under the Note, the outstanding principal balance of the Note shall bear interest at
the default rate set forth in the Note. 
 8. Prepayment. In the event that the LIBOR Option is the applicable interest rate for all or
any part of the outstanding principal balance of the Note, and any payment or prepayment of any such outstanding principal balance of the Note shall occur on any day other than the last day of the applicable LIBOR Period (whether voluntarily, by
acceleration, required payment, or otherwise), or if Borrower elects the LIBOR Option as the applicable interest rate for all or any part of the outstanding principal balance of the Note in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof, and,
subsequent to such election, but prior to the commencement of the applicable LIBOR Period, Borrower revokes such election for any reason whatsoever, or if the applicable interest rate in respect of any outstanding principal balance of the

 
Note hereunder shall be changed, for any reason whatsoever, from the LIBOR Option to the Prime Rate Option prior to the last day of the applicable LIBOR Period, or if Borrower shall fail to make
any payment of principal or interest hereunder at any time that the L1BOR Option is the applicable interest rate hereunder in respect of such outstanding principal balance of the Note, Borrower shall reimburse Bank, on demand, for any resulting
loss, cost or expense incurred by Bank as a result thereof, including, without limitation, any such loss, cost or expense incurred in obtaining, liquidating, employing or redeploying deposits from third parties. Such amount payable by Borrower to
Bank may include, without limitation, an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (a) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the amount so prepaid, or not so borrowed, refunded or converted, for the period from the date of such
prepayment or of such failure to borrow, refund or convert, through the last day of the relevant LIBOR Period, at the applicable rate of interest for such outstanding principal balance of the Note, as provided under this Note, over (b) the
amount of interest (as reasonably determined by Bank) which would have accrued to Bank on such amount by placing such amount on deposit for a comparable period with leading banks in the interbank L1BOR market. Calculation of any amounts payable to
Bank under this paragraph shall be made as though Bank shall have actually funded or committed to fund the relevant outstanding principal balance of the Not~ hereunder through the purchase of an underlying deposit in an amount equal to the amount of
such outstanding principal balance of the Note and having a maturity comparable to the relevant LIBOR Period; provided, however, that Bank may fund the outstanding principal balance of the Note hereunder in any manner it deems fit and the foregoing
assumptions shall be utilized only for the purpose of the calculation of amounts payable under this paragraph. Upon the written request of Borrower, Bank shall deliver to Borrower a certificate setting forth the basis for determining such losses,
costs and expenses, which certificate shall be conclusively presumed correct, absent manifest error. Any prepayment hereunder shall also be accompanied by the payment of all accrued and unpaid interest on the amount so prepaid. Any outstanding
principal balance of the Note which is bearing interest at such time at the Prime Rate Option may be prepaid without penalty or premium. Partial prepayments hereunder shall be applied to the installments hereunder in the inverse order of their
maturities. 
 BY INITIALING BELOW, BORROWER ACKNOWLEDGE(S) AND AGREE(S) THAT: (A) THERE IS NO RIGHT TO PREPAY ANY L1BOR OPTION ADVANCE, IN
WHOLE OR IN PART, WITHOUT PAYING THE PREPAYMENT AMOUNT SET FORTH HEREIN (“PREPAYMENT AMOUNT’), EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE REQUIRED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW; (B) BORROWER SHALL BE LIABLE FOR PAYMENT OF THE PREPAYMENT AMOUNT IF BANK EXERCISES ITS
RIGHT TO ACCELERATE PAYMENT OF ANY LIBOR OPTION ADVANCE AS PART OR ALL OF THE OBLIGATIONS OWING UNDER THE NOTE, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, ACCELERATION UNDER A DUE-CN-SALE PROVISION; (C) BORROWER WAIVES ANY RIGHTS UNDER SECTION 2954.10 OF
THE CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE OR ANY SUCCESSOR STATUTE; AND (D) BANK HAS MADE EACH L1BOR OPTION DVANCE PURSUANT TO THE NOTE IN RELIANCE ON THESE AGREEMENTS.

 9. Hold Harmless and Indemnification. Borrower agrees to indemnify Bank and to hold Bank harmless from, and to
reimburse Bank on demand for, all losses and expenses which Bank sustains or incurs as’ a result of (i) any payment of a LIBOR Option Advance prior to the last day of the applicable LIBOR Period for any reason, including, without
limitation, termination of the Note, whether pursuant to this Addendum or the occurrence of a Default under the Note; (ii) any termination of a LIBOR Period prior to the date it would otherwise end in accordance with this Addendum; or
(iii) any failure by Borrower, for any reason, to borrow any portion of a LIBOR Option Advance. 
 10. Funding Losses. The
indemnification and hold harmless provisions set forth in this Addendum shall include, without limitation, all losses and expenses arising from interest and fees that Bank pays to lenders of funds it obtains in order to fund the loans to Borrower on
the basis of the LIBOR Option(s) and all losses incurred in liquidating or re-deploying deposits from which such funds were obtained and loss of profit for the period after termination. A written statement by Bank to Borrower of such losses and
expenses shall be conclusive and binding, absent manifest error, for all purposes. This obligation shall survive the termination of this Addendum and the payment of the Note. 

11. Regulatory Developments Or Other Circumstances Relating To Illegality or Impracticality of LIBOR. If any Regulatory Development or other
circumstances relating to the interbank Euro-dollar markets shall, at any time. in Bank’s reasonable determination, make it unlawful or impractical for Bank to fund or maintain, during any LIBOR Period, to determine or charge interest rates
based upon USOR, Bank shall give notice of such circumstances to Borrower and: 
  

	 	(i)	In the case of a LIBOR Period in progress, Borrower shall, if requested by Bank, promptly pay any interest which had accrued prior to such request and the date of such
request shall be deemed to be the last day of the term of the LIBOR Period; and 

	 	(ii)	No LIBOR Period may be designated thereafter until Bank determines that such would be practical. 

12. Additional Costs. Borrower shall pay to Bank from time to time, upon Bank’s request, such amounts as Bank determines are needed to
compensate Bank for any costs it incurred which are attributable to Bank having made or maintained a LIBOR Option Advance or to Bank’s obligation to make a LIBOR Option Advance, or any reduction in any amount receivable by Bank hereunder with
respect to any USOR Option or such obligation (such increases in costs and reductions in amounts receivable being herein called “Additional Costs”), resulting from any Regulatory Developments, which (i) change the basis of taxation of
any amounts payable to Bank hereunder with respect to taxation of any amounts payable to Bank hereunder with respect to any USOR Option Advance (other than taxes imposed on the overall net income of Bank for any LIBOR Option Advance by the
jurisdiction where Bank is headquartered or the jurisdiction where Bank extends the LIBOR Option Advance; (ii) impose or modify any reserve, special deposit, or similar requirements relating to any extensions of credit or other assets of, or
any deposits with or other liabilities of, Bank (including any LIBOR Option Advance or any deposits· referred to in the definition of LIBOR); or (iii) impose any other condition affecting this Addendum (or any of such extension of credit
or liabilities). Bank shall notify Borrower of any event occurring after the date hereof which entitles Bank to compensation pursuant to this paragraph as promptly as practicable after it obtains knowledge thereof and determines to request such
compensation. Determinations by Bank for purposes of this paragraph, shall be conclusive, provided that such determination$ are made on a reasonable basis. 

13. Legal Effect. Except as specifically modified hereby, all of the terms and conditions of the Note remain in full force and effect. 

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have agreed to the foregoing as of the date first set forth above.

terms and conditions of any other Loan Documents.”

agrees that any reference in the Documents to Comerica Bank, a Michigan banking corporation, shall mean Comerica Bank, a Texas banking association, as successor by merger to the Merged Bank. 

8. No course of dealing on the part of Bank or its officers, nor any failure or delay in the exercise of any right by Bank, shall operate
as a waiver thereof, and any single or partial exercise of any such right shall not preclude any later exercise of any such right. Bank’s failure at any time to require strict performance by Borrower of any provision shall not affect any right
of Bank thereafter to demand strict compliance and performance. Any suspension or waiver of a right must be in writing signed by an officer of Bank. 

9. Unless otherwise defined, all initially capitalized terms in this Amendment shall be as defined in the Agreement. The Agreement, as
amended hereby, shall be and remain in full force and effect in accordance with its respective terms and hereby is ratified and confirmed in all respects. Except as expressly set forth herein, the execution, delivery, and performance of this
Amendment shall not operate as a waiver of, or as an amendment of, any right, power, or remedy of Bank under the Agreement, as in effect prior to the date hereof. 

10. Borrower represents and warrants that the Representations and Warranties contained in the Agreement are true and correct as of the
date of this Amendment, and that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

Agreement. Bank has agreed to enter into the Amendment provided, among other things, that each Guarantor consent to the entry by Borrower into the Amendment and related documents and agrees that each Guaranty will remain effective as set forth

Agreement shall remain in full force and effect with respect to all of Borrower’s obligations under the Loan Agreement as amended by the Amendment and otherwise. Each Guarantor confirms that such Guarantor has no defenses against its
obligations under the Guaranty or the Security Agreement. 
 2. Each Guarantor represents and warrants that the representations,
warranties and covenants contained in the Guaranty and the Security Agreement are true and correct as of the date of this Amendment and remain in full force and effect. Unless otherwise defined, all capitalized terms in this Affirmation shall be as
defined in the Guaranty or the Security Agreement, as applicable. 
 3. Each Guarantor represents and warrants that the security
interest granted Bank pursuant to the Security Agreement of even date therewith remains in full force and effect as a first in priority perfected security interest against the Collateral identified therein. 

4. Each Guarantor is a party to certain documents, instruments and/or agreements (collectively, the “Documents”) with or
between it and Comerica Bank, a Michigan banking corporation (the “Merged Bank”). The Merged Bank has been merged with and into Comerica Bank, a Texas banking association. Each Guarantor hereby acknowledges and agrees that any reference in

the Federal Reserve System or, if such regulation or definition is modified, and as long as Bank is required to maintain reserves against a category of liabilities which includes eurodollar deposits or includes a category of assets which includes

 -4- 

 
calendar month during which such LIBOR Period is to end, it shall end on the last Business Day of such calendar month. In the event that any LIBOR-based Advance is at any time refunded or
continued as another LIBOR-based Advance for an additional LIBOR Period, such LIBOR Period shall commence on the last day of the preceding LIBOR Period then ending. 

(r) “LIBOR Rate” means, with respect to any Indebtedness outstanding under the Agreement at the LIBOR-based Rate, the per annum
rate of interest determined on the basis of the rate for deposits in United States Dollars for a period equal to the relevant LIBOR Period for such Indebtedness, commencing on the first day of such LIBOR Period, appearing on Page BBAM of the
Bloomberg Financial Markets Information Service as of 8:00 a.m. (California time) (or as soon thereafter as practical), two (2) Business Days prior to the first day of such LIBOR Period. In the event that such rate does not appear on Page BBAM
of the Bloomberg Financial Markets Information Service (or otherwise on such Service), the “LIBOR Rate” shall be determined by reference to such other publicly available service for displaying eurodollar rates as may be agreed upon by Bank
and Borrower, or, in the absence of such agreement, the “LIBOR Rate” shall, instead, be the per annum rate equal to the average of the rates at which Bank is offered dollar deposits at or about 8:00 a.m. (California time) (or as soon

Federal Reserve System arranged by Federal funds brokers (the “Overnight Rates”), as published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, or, if the Overnight Rates are not so published for any day, the average of the quotations for the
Overnight Rates received by Bank from three (3) Federal funds brokers of recognized standing selected by Bank, as the same may be changed from time to time. 

k. “Request for Advance” means a Request for Advance issued by Borrower in the form of Exhibit “A” attached hereto and incorporated

Advances made under the Agreement shall bear interest at the LIBOR-based Rate or the Daily Adjusting LIBOR Rate, as elected by Borrower or as otherwise determined under this Addendum, except during any period of time during which, in accordance with
the terms and conditions of this Addendum, the Indebtedness under the Agreement shall bear interest at the Prime-based Rate. 

3. Payment of Interest on Advances. Accrued and unpaid interest on the unpaid balance of each outstanding Advance shall be payable
monthly, in arrears, on the twentieth day of each month, until maturity (whether as stated herein, by acceleration, or otherwise). Subject to the definition of “LIBOR Period” hereunder, in the event that any payment under this Addendum
becomes due and payable on any day which is not a Business Day, the due date thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, to the extent applicable, interest shall continue to accrue and be payable thereon during such extension
at the rates set forth in this Addendum. Interest accruing at the Daily Adjusting LIBOR Rate and at the Prime-based Rate (to the extent applicable) shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, and shall be assessed for the actual number of
days elapsed, and in such computation, effect shall be given to any change in the Applicable Interest Rate as a result of any change in the Daily Adjusting LIBOR Rate or, to the extent applicable, the Prime-based Rate, on the date of each such
change. Interest accruing at the LIBOR-based Rate shall be computed on the basis of a 360 day year and shall be assessed for the actual number of days elapsed from the first day of the LIBOR Period applicable thereto but not including the last day
thereof.

 4. Bank’s Records Re: Advances. The amount and date of each Advance, its
Applicable Interest Rate, its LIBOR Period, if applicable, and the amount and date of any repayment shall be noted on Bank’s records, which records shall be conclusive evidence thereof, absent manifest error; provided, however,
any failure by Bank to make any such notation, or any error in any such notation, shall not relieve Borrower of its obligations to repay Bank all amounts payable by Borrower to Bank under or pursuant to this Addendum and the Agreement, when due in
accordance with the terms hereof. For any LIBOR-based Advance or any Daily Adjusting LIBOR Advance, if Bank shall designate a LIBOR Lending Office which maintains books separate from those of the rest of Bank, Bank shall have the option of
maintaining and carrying such Advance on the books of such LIBOR Lending Office. 
 5. Selection/Conversion of Interest Rate
Options. Borrower may request an Advance hereunder, including the refunding of an outstanding Advance as the same type of Advance or the conversion of an outstanding Advance to another type of Advance, upon the delivery to Bank of a Request for
Advance executed by Borrower, subject to the following: (a) Bank shall not have made demand under the Agreement and no Event of Default, or any condition or event which, with the giving of notice or the running of time, or both, would
constitute an Event of Default, shall have occurred and be continuing or exist under the Agreement; (b) each such Request for Advance shall set forth the information required on the Request for Advance form attached hereto as Exhibit
“A”; (c) each such Request for Advance shall be delivered to Bank by 10:00 a.m. (California time) on the proposed date of the requested Advance; (d) the principal amount of each LIBOR-based Advance shall be at least Two Hundred
Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000.00); (e) the proposed date of any refunding of any outstanding LIBOR-based Advance as another LIBOR-based Advance or the conversion of any outstanding LIBOR-based Advance to another type of Advance shall only be
on the last day of the LIBOR Period applicable to such outstanding LIBOR-based Advance; and (f) a Request for Advance, once delivered to Bank, shall not be revocable by Borrower. There shall be no more than three (3) LIBOR Periods
outstanding at any one time. 
 (h) Advances hereunder may be requested in Borrower’s discretion by telephonic notice to
Bank. Any Advance requested by telephonic notice shall be confirmed by Borrower that same day by submission to Bank, either by first class mail, facsimile or other means of delivery acceptable to Bank, of the written Request for Advance
aforementioned. Borrower acknowledges that if Bank makes an Advance based on a telephonic request, it shall be for Borrower’s convenience and all risks involved in the use of such procedure shall be borne by Borrower, and Borrower expressly
agrees to indemnify and hold Bank harmless therefor. Bank shall have no duty to confirm the authority of anyone requesting an Advance by telephone. 

(i) If, as to any outstanding LIBOR-based Advance, Bank shall not receive a timely Request for Advance, or telephonic notice, in
accordance with the foregoing requesting the refunding or continuation of such Advance as another LIBOR-based Advance for a specified LIBOR Period or the conversion of such Advance to a Daily Adjusting LIBOR Rate Advance, effective as of the last
day of the LIBOR Period applicable to such outstanding LIBOR-based Advance, and as of the last day of each succeeding LIBOR Period, the principal amount of such Advance which is not then repaid shall be automatically refunded or continued as a
LIBOR-based Advance having a LIBOR Period equal to the same period of time as the LIBOR Period then ending for such outstanding LIBOR-based Advance, unless Borrower is/are not entitled to request LIBOR-based Advances hereunder or otherwise elect the
LIBOR-based Rate as the Applicable Interest Rate for the principal Indebtedness outstanding hereunder in accordance with the terms of this Addendum, or the LIBOR-based Rate is not otherwise available to Borrower as the Applicable Interest Rate
hereunder for the principal Indebtedness outstanding hereunder in accordance with the terms of this Addendum, in which case, the Prime-based Rate shall be the Applicable Interest Rate hereunder in respect of such Indebtedness for such period,
subject in all respects to the terms and conditions of the Agreement. The foregoing shall not in any way whatsoever limit or otherwise affect Bank’s right to make demand for payment of all or any part of the Indebtedness at any time in
Bank’s sole and absolute discretion or any of Bank’s rights or remedies under the Agreement upon the occurrence of any Event of Default thereunder, or any condition or event which, with the giving of notice or the running of time, or both,
would constitute an Event of Default. 
 6. Default Interest Rate. From and after the occurrence of any Event of Default,
and so long as any such Event of Default remains unremedied or uncured thereafter, the Indebtedness outstanding under the Agreement shall bear interest at a per annum rate of three percent (3%) above the otherwise Applicable Interest Rate,
which interest shall be payable upon demand. In addition to the foregoing, a late payment charge equal to five percent (5%) of each late payment hereunder may be charged on any payment not received by Bank within ten (10) calendar

  

 -6- 

 
days after the payment due date therefor, but acceptance of payment of any such charge shall not constitute a waiver of any Event of Default under the Agreement. In no event shall the interest
payable under this Addendum and the Agreement at any time exceed the maximum rate permitted by law. 
 7. Prepayment. If
Borrower make(s) any payment of principal with respect to any LIBOR-based Advance on any day other than the last day of the LIBOR Period applicable thereto (whether voluntarily, by acceleration, required payment or otherwise), or if Borrower fail(s)
to borrow any LIBOR-based Advance after notice has been given by Borrower (or any of them) to Bank in accordance with the terms of this Addendum requesting such Advance, or if Borrower fail(s) to make any payment of principal or interest in respect
of a LIBOR-based Advance when due, Borrower shall reimburse Bank, on demand, for any resulting loss, cost or expense incurred by Bank as a result thereof, including, without limitation, any such loss, cost or expense incurred in obtaining,
liquidating, employing or redeploying deposits from third parties, whether or not Bank shall have funded or committed to fund such Advance. Such amount payable by Borrower to Bank may include, without limitation, an amount equal to the excess, if
any, of (a) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the amount so prepaid, or not so borrowed, refunded or converted, for the period from the date of such prepayment or of such failure to borrow, refund or convert, through the last
day of the relevant LIBOR Period, at the applicable rate of interest for said Advance(s) provided under this Addendum, over (b) the amount of interest (as reasonably determined by Bank) which would have accrued to Bank on such amount by placing
such amount on deposit for a comparable period with leading banks in the interbank eurodollar market. Calculation of any amounts payable to Bank under this paragraph shall be made as though Bank shall have actually funded or committed to fund the
relevant LIBOR-based Advance through the purchase of an underlying deposit in an amount equal to the amount of such Advance and having a maturity comparable to the relevant LIBOR Period; provided, however, that Bank may fund any LIBOR-based Advance
in any manner it deems fit and the foregoing assumptions shall be utilized only for the purpose of the calculation of amounts payable under this paragraph. Upon the written request of Borrower, Bank shall deliver to Borrower a certificate setting
forth the basis for determining such losses, costs and expenses, which certificate shall be conclusively presumed correct, absent manifest error. Borrower may prepay all or part of the outstanding balance of any Daily Adjusting LIBOR Rate Advance
under this Addendum or any Indebtedness which is bearing interest at the Prime-based Rate at any such time without premium or penalty. Any prepayment hereunder shall also be accompanied by the payment of all accrued and unpaid interest on the amount
so prepaid. Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that the foregoing shall not, in any way whatsoever, limit, restrict, or otherwise affect Bank’s right to make demand for payment of all or any part of the Indebtedness under the Agreement due
on a demand basis in Bank’s sole and absolute discretion, whether such Indebtedness is bearing interest at the Daily Adjusting LIBOR Rate, the LIBOR-based Rate or the Prime-based Rate at such time. 

BY INITIALING BELOW, BORROWER ACKNOWLEDGE(S) AND AGREE(S) THAT: (A) THERE IS NO RIGHT TO PREPAY ANY LIBOR-BASED RATE ADVANCE, IN WHOLE OR IN PART,
WITHOUT PAYING THE PREPAYMENT AMOUNT SET FORTH HEREIN (“PREPAYMENT AMOUNT”), EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE REQUIRED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW; (B) BORROWER SHALL BE LIABLE FOR PAYMENT OF THE PREPAYMENT AMOUNT IF BANK EXERCISES ITS RIGHT TO
ACCELERATE PAYMENT OF ANY LIBOR-BASED RATE ADVANCE AS PART OR ALL OF THE OBLIGATIONS OWING UNDER THE AGREEMENT, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, ACCELERATION UNDER A DUE-ON-SALE PROVISION; (C) BORROWER WAIVES ANY RIGHTS UNDER SECTION 2954.10 OF
THE CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE OR ANY SUCCESSOR STATUTE; AND (D) BANK HAS MADE EACH LIBOR-BASED RATE ADVANCE PURSUANT TO THE AGREEMENT IN RELIANCE ON THESE AGREEMENTS.

BORROWER’S INITIALS 
 8.
Regulatory Developments or Other Circumstances Relating to the LIBOR-based Rate or the Daily Adjusting LIBOR Rate. 
 (h)
If, at any time, Bank determines that, (a) Bank is unable to determine or ascertain the LIBOR-based Rate or the Daily Adjusting LIBOR Rate, or (b) by reason of circumstances affecting the foreign exchange and interbank markets generally,
deposits in eurodollars in the applicable amounts or for the relative maturities are not being offered to Bank for any applicable Advance or LIBOR Period, or (c) the LIBOR-based Rate or the Daily Adjusting LIBOR Rate will not accurately or
fairly cover or reflect the cost to Bank of maintaining any 
  

 -7- 

 
of the Indebtedness under this Addendum at the LIBOR-based Rate or the Daily Adjusting LIBOR Rate, then Bank shall forthwith give notice thereof to Borrower. Thereafter, until Bank notifies
Borrower that such conditions or circumstances no longer exist, the right of Borrower to request a LIBOR-based Advance or a Daily Adjusting LIBOR Rate Advance and to convert an Advance to or refund an Advance as a LIBOR-based Advance or a Daily
Adjusting LIBOR Rate Advance shall be suspended, and the Prime-based Rate shall be the Applicable Interest Rate for all Indebtedness during such period of time. 

(i) If, after the date hereof, the introduction of, or any change in, any applicable law, rule or regulation or in the interpretation or
administration thereof by any governmental authority charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by Bank (or its LIBOR Lending Office) with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such
authority, shall make it unlawful or impossible for the Bank (or its LIBOR Lending Office) to make or maintain any Advance with interest at the LIBOR-based Rate or the Daily Adjusting LIBOR Rate, Bank shall forthwith give notice thereof to Borrower.
Thereafter, (a) until Bank notifies Borrower that such conditions or circumstances no longer exist, the right of Borrower to request a LIBOR-based Advance or a Daily Adjusting LIBOR Rate Advance and to convert an Advance to or refund an Advance
as a LIBOR-based Advance or a Daily Adjusting LIBOR Rate Advance shall be suspended, and thereafter, the Prime-based Rate shall be the Applicable Interest Rate for all Indebtedness, and (b) if Bank may not lawfully continue to maintain an
outstanding LIBOR-based Advance to the end of the then current LIBOR Period applicable thereto, the Prime-based Rate shall be the Applicable Interest Rate for the remainder of such LIBOR Period with respect to such outstanding Advance. 

(j) Further, at any time upon prior written notice to Borrower, Bank may, in its sole discretion based upon its good faith belief that
the Prime-based Rate is an appropriate basis for its floating rate loans, suspend use of the Daily Adjusting LIBOR Rate as an Applicable Interest Rate hereunder, at which time, the Prime-based Rate shall thereafter replace the Daily Adjusting LIBOR
Rate as an Applicable Interest Rate for Indebtedness outstanding under the Agreement, unless Bank, in its sole discretion based upon its good faith belief that the Prime-based Rate is no longer an appropriate basis for its floating rate loans,
rescinds such notice, in which case, the Daily Adjusting LIBOR Rate shall, upon written notice from Bank to Borrower, again be an Applicable Interest Rate hereunder and use of the Prime-based Rate as an Applicable Interest Rate for Indebtedness
outstanding under the Agreement shall be suspended. 
 (k) If the adoption after the date hereof, or any change after the date
hereof in, any applicable law, rule or regulation (whether domestic or foreign) of any governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by Bank (or its LIBOR Lending
Office) with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) made by any such authority, central bank or comparable agency after the date hereof: (a) shall subject Bank (or its LIBOR Lending Office) to any tax, duty or other
charge with respect to this Addendum or any Indebtedness under the Agreement, or shall change the basis of taxation of payments to Bank (or its LIBOR Lending Office) of the principal of or interest under this Addendum or any other amounts due under
this Addendum in respect thereof (except for changes in the rate of tax on the overall net income of Bank or its LIBOR Lending Office imposed by the jurisdiction in which Bank’s principal executive office or LIBOR Lending Office is located); or
(b) shall impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve (including, without limitation, any imposed by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System), special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the
account of, or credit extended by Bank (or its LIBOR Lending Office), or shall impose on Bank (or its LIBOR Lending Office) or the foreign exchange and interbank markets any other condition affecting this Addendum or the Indebtedness; and the result
of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to Bank of maintaining any part of the Indebtedness or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by Bank under this Addendum by an amount deemed by the Bank to be material, then Borrower
shall pay to Bank, within fifteen (15) days of Borrower’s receipt of written notice from Bank demanding such compensation, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate Bank for such increased cost or reduction. A certificate of
Bank, prepared in good faith and in reasonable detail by Bank and submitted by Bank to Borrower, setting forth the basis for determining such additional amount or amounts necessary to compensate Bank shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes,
absent manifest error. 
 (l) In the event that any applicable law, treaty, rule or regulation (whether domestic or foreign) now
or hereafter in effect and whether or not presently applicable to Bank, or any interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental authority charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or

  

 -8- 

 
compliance by Bank with any guideline, request or directive of any such authority (whether or not having the force of law), including any risk-based capital guidelines, affects or would affect
the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by Bank (or any corporation controlling Bank), and Bank determines that the amount of such capital is increased by or based upon the existence of any obligations of Bank hereunder or the
maintaining of any Indebtedness, and such increase has the effect of reducing the rate of return on Bank’s (or such controlling corporation’s) capital as a consequence of such obligations or the maintaining of such Indebtedness to a level
below that which Bank (or such controlling corporation) could have achieved but for such circumstances (taking into consideration its policies with respect to capital adequacy), then Borrower shall pay to Bank, within fifteen (15) days of
Borrower’s receipt of written notice from Bank demanding such compensation, additional amounts as are sufficient to compensate Bank (or such controlling corporation) for any increase in the amount of capital and reduced rate of return which
Bank reasonably determines to be allocable to the existence of any obligations of the Bank hereunder or to maintaining any Indebtedness. A certificate of Bank as to the amount of such compensation, prepared in good faith and in reasonable detail by
the Bank and submitted by Bank to Borrower, shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes absent manifest error. 
 9.
Legal Effect. Except as specifically modified hereby, all of the terms and conditions of the Agreement remain in full force and effect. 

10. Conflicts. As to the matters specifically the subject of this Addendum, in the event of any conflict between this Addendum and
the Agreement, the terms of this Addendum shall control. 
 11. Amendment and Restatement. This Addendum amends, restate,
and replaces in its entirety that certain LIBOR Addendum to Loan and Security Agreement dated December 20, 2007 by and between Bank and Borrower. 

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have agreed to the foregoing as of the date first set forth above.
