Five Hundred Thousand (-$1,500,000). As soon as practicable and in any event within 30 days after the end of each month, Obligors
shall deliver to Agent a Compliance Certificate duly executed by a Senior Officer of the Borrower Agent setting forth the calculation
of EBITDA for the previous month and certifying whether or not Obligors are in compliance with the foregoing covenant.

(viii)       the
execution and delivery of this Agreement has not established any course of dealing between the parties hereto or created any obligation
or agreement of any Lender or the Agent with respect to any future restructuring, modification, amendment, waiver or forbearance
with respect to the Obligations or any of the terms of the Loan Documents; and

of each Lender and the Agent, from any and all claims, demands, actions, causes of action, damages, costs, expenses and liabilities,
known or unknown, anticipated or unanticipated, suspected or unsuspected, asserted or unasserted, fixed, contingent or conditional,
at law or in equity, arising out of or in any way relating to the Loan Documents or any documents, agreements, dealings or other
matters connected with the Loan Documents, in each case to the extent arising (x) on or prior to the date hereof or (y) out
of, or relating to, any actions, dealings or matters occurring on or prior to the date hereof. The waivers, releases, and discharges
in this Section 9 shall be effective on the Forbearance Effective Date regardless of whether any post-Forbearance
Effective Date conditions to this Agreement are satisfied and regardless of any other event that may occur or not occur after
the date hereof.

 

     13

     

    

 

(ii)          It
is the intention of each Obligor that this Agreement and the release set forth above shall constitute a full and final accord and
satisfaction of all claims that may have or hereafter be deemed to have against Releasees as set forth herein. In furtherance of
this intention, each Obligor, on behalf of itself and each other Releasor, expressly waives any statutory or common law provision
that would otherwise prevent the release set forth above from extending to claims that are not currently known or suspected to
exist in any Releasor’s favor at the time of executing this Agreement and which, if known by Releasors, might have materially
affected the agreement as provided for hereunder. Each Obligor on behalf of itself and each other Releasor, acknowledges that it
is familiar with Section 1542 of California Civil Code:

 

A GENERAL RELEASE
DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE
RELEASE, WHICH IF KNOWN BY HIM OR HER MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR.

 

(iii)         Each
Obligor, on behalf of itself and each other Releasor, waives and releases any rights or benefits that it may have under Section 1542
to the full extent that it may lawfully waive such rights and benefits, and each Obligor, on behalf of itself and each other Releasor,
acknowledges that it understands the significance and consequences of the waiver of the provisions of Section 1542 and that
it has been advised by its attorney as to the significance and consequences of this waiver.

 

(iv)         Each
Obligor understands, acknowledges and agrees that the release set forth above may be pleaded as a full and complete defense and
may be used as a basis for an injunction against any action,
suit or other proceeding which may be instituted, prosecuted or attempted in breach of the provisions of such release.

 

(v)          Each
Obligor agrees that no fact, event, circumstance, evidence, or transaction which could now be asserted or which may hereafter be
discovered shall affect in any manner the final, absolute, and unconditional nature of the release set forth above.

 

(vi)         The
waivers, releases, and discharges in this Agreement shall be effective on the Forbearance Effective Date regardless of whether
any post-Forbearance Effective Date conditions to this Agreement are satisfied and regardless of any other event that may occur
or not occur after the date hereof.

 

     14

     

    

 

(c)          Indemnity.
In furtherance of its Obligations under Section 14.2 of the Loan Agreement, each of the Obligors, jointly and severally,
agrees to further defend, protect, indemnify and hold harmless each Lender and the Agent and all of their respective
officers, directors, employees, attorneys, consultants and agents (collectively called the “Indemnitees”)
from and against any and all losses, damages, liabilities, obligations, penalties, fees, reasonable costs and expenses
(including, without limitation, reasonable fees, costs and expenses of outside counsel) incurred by such Indemnitees, whether
direct, indirect or consequential, as a result of or arising from or relating to or in connection with any of the following:
(i) the execution or performance or enforcement of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other document
executed in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; or (ii) any claim, litigation,
investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether or not any Indemnitee is a party thereto. This
indemnity shall survive the repayment of the Obligations and the discharge of the liens granted under the Loan Documents.

 

(d)          No
Waiver. This Agreement shall be limited precisely as written and, except as expressly provided herein, shall not be deemed
(i) to be a consent granted pursuant to, or a (other than as set forth in Section 6) waiver, modification or forbearance
of, any term or condition of any of the Loan Documents or a waiver of any Default or Event of Default under any of the Loan Documents
(including, without limitation, the Specified Defaults), whether or not known to a Lender or the Agent, or (ii) to prejudice
any right or remedy which a Lender or the Agent may now have or have in the future under or in connection with the Loan Documents
or any of the instruments or agreements referred to therein. Subject to the forbearance in respect of the Specified Defaults set
forth in Section 3 and the amendment set forth in Section 6, the Loan Documents shall continue in full
force and effect and are hereby ratified and confirmed.

 

(e)          Waiver
of Defense. Each of Obligors expressly acknowledges the occurrence and continued existence of the Specified Defaults. The Obligors,
jointly and severally, agree that each Lender and the Agent has no obligation (i) to grant the forbearance contemplated by
this Agreement, (ii) to enter into discussions with the Obligors with regard to waiving the Specified Defaults, or (iii) to
enter into any amendment or modification of the terms and provisions of any Loan Document, and any of the same shall be within
the sole discretion of each Lender and the Agent. Each of the Obligors, jointly and severally, acknowledge and agree, as a condition
of the Lenders and the Agent entering into this Agreement, that it shall not raise any claim, cause of action or defense based
upon any allegations of failure of any Lender or the Agent to do or agree to do any of the foregoing, or failure of any Lender
or the Agent to negotiate in good faith to accomplish any of the same.

 

     15

     

    

 

(f)           Waiver
of Jury Trial Right and Other Matters. BORROWERS AND THE OTHER OBLIGORS EACH HEREBY WAIVES (i) ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY
JURY IN ANY ACTION, SUIT, OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF, IN CONNECTION WITH OR RELATING TO, THIS AGREEMENT, THE OTHER
LOAN DOCUMENTS AND ANY OTHER TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY AND THEREBY, WHICH WAIVER APPLIES TO ANY ACTION, SUIT OR
PROCEEDING WHETHER SOUNDING IN TORT, CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE; (ii) PRESENTMENT, DEMAND AND PROTEST, AND NOTICE OF
PRESENTMENT, PROTEST, DEFAULT, NONPAYMENT, MATURITY, RELEASE WITH RESPECT TO ALL OR ANY PART OF THE OBLIGATIONS OR ANY
COMMERCIAL PAPER, ACCOUNTS, CONTRACT RIGHTS, DOCUMENTS, INSTRUMENTS, CHATTEL PAPER AND GUARANTIES AT ANY TIME HELD BY
ANY LENDER PARTY ON WHICH BORROWERS OR ANY OTHER OBLIGOR MAY IN ANY WAY BE LIABLE AND HEREBY RATIFIES AND CONFIRMS
WHATEVER SUCH LENDER PARTY MAY DO IN THIS REGARD; (iii) NOTICE PRIOR TO TAKING POSSESSION OR CONTROL OF THE
COLLATERAL, THE OTHER COLLATERAL OR ANY BOND OR SECURITY THAT MIGHT BE REQUIRED BY ANY COURT PRIOR TO ALLOWING ANY LENDER
PARTY TO EXERCISE ANY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHTS AND REMEDIES; (iv) THE BENEFIT OF ALL VALUATION, APPRAISEMENT AND
EXEMPTION LAWS AND ALL RIGHTS WAIVABLE UNDER ARTICLE 9 OF THE UNIFORM COMMERCIAL CODE; (v) ANY RIGHT BORROWERS
OR ANY OTHER OBLIGOR MAY HAVE UPON PAYMENT IN FULL OF THE OBLIGATIONS TO REQUIRE ANY LENDER PARTY TO TERMINATE ITS
SECURITY INTEREST IN THE COLLATERAL, OTHER COLLATERAL OR IN ANY OTHER PROPERTY OF BORROWERS OR ANY OTHER OBLIGOR UNTIL
TERMINATION OF THE AGREEMENT IN ACCORDANCE WITH ITS TERMS AND THE EXECUTION BY BORROWERS, AND BY ANY PERSON WHO PROVIDES
FUNDS TO BORROWERS THAT ARE USED IN WHOLE OR IN PART TO SATISFY THE OBLIGATIONS, OF AN AGREEMENT INDEMNIFYING ANY OR ALL
OF THE LENDER PARTIES FROM ANY LOSS OR DAMAGE ANY SUCH PARTY MAY INCUR AS THE RESULT OF DISHONORED CHECKS OR OTHER ITEMS
OF PAYMENT RECEIVED BY SUCH LENDER PARTY FROM BORROWERS, OR ANY ACCOUNT DEBTOR AND APPLIED TO THE OBLIGATIONS AND RELEASING
AND INDEMNIFYING, IN THE SAME MANNER AS DESCRIBED IN SECTION 9 OF THIS AGREEMENT, THE RELEASEES FROM ALL CLAIMS
ARISING ON OR BEFORE THE DATE OF SUCH TERMINATION STATEMENT; AND (vi) NOTICE OF ACCEPTANCE HEREOF, AND BORROWERS AND THE
OTHER OBLIGORS EACH ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE FOREGOING WAIVERS ARE A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT TO AGENT’S AND THE OTHER LENDER
PARTIES’ ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THAT SUCH PARTIES ARE RELYING UPON THE FOREGOING WAIVERS IN THEIR FUTURE
DEALINGS WITH BORROWERS AND THE OTHER OBLIGORS. BORROWERS AND THE OTHER OBLIGORS EACH WARRANTS AND REPRESENTS THAT IT HAS
REVIEWED THE FOREGOING WAIVERS WITH ITS LEGAL COUNSEL AND HAS KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVED ITS JURY TRIAL RIGHTS
FOLLOWING CONSULTATION WITH LEGAL COUNSEL. IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, THIS AGREEMENT MAY BE FILED AS A WRITTEN CONSENT
TO A TRIAL BY THE COURT.

 

		(g)	Alternative Dispute Resolution under California Law.

 

(i)           The
reference provisions of this Section 9(g) will be applicable only if the jury trial waiver set forth in Section 9(f) hereof
is declared invalid or unenforceable and the Agent determines in its sole discretion to proceed as set forth in this Section 9(g).

 

     16

     

    

 

(ii)          Other
than (I) nonjudicial foreclosure of security interests in real or personal property, (II) the appointment of a receiver,
or (III) the exercise of other provisional remedies (any of which may be initiated pursuant to applicable law), each controversy,
dispute or claim (each, a “Disputed Claim”) between any or all of the parties hereto arising out of or relating to
the Loan Documents, which Disputed Claim is not settled in writing within 30 days after the “Claim Date” (the date
on which a party subject to the Loan Documents gives written notice to the other parties that a Disputed Claim exists), will be
resolved by a reference proceeding in California in accordance with the provisions of Section 638 et seq. of the California
Code of Civil Procedure, or their successor sections (“CCP”), which shall constitute the exclusive remedy for the
resolution of any Disputed Claim concerning the Loan Documents, including whether the Disputed Claim is subject to the reference
proceeding. Except as set forth in this Section 9(g), the parties hereto waive the right to initiate legal proceedings against
each other concerning such Disputed Claims. Venue for these reference proceedings will be in the courts of the State of California
sitting in Los Angeles County or such other venue as the parties may agree (the “Court”).

 

(iii)         In
the event that 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 of the Court, 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.

 

SECTION 10.            No Waiver; No Novation; Reservation
of Rights.

 

(a)          No
Waiver. Neither any Lender nor the Agent has waived, nor is any Lender or the Agent by this Agreement waiving, and neither
any Lender nor the Agent has any present intention of waiving, any Specified Default, any other Events of Default arising under
the Loan Documents which may be continuing on the Forbearance Effective Date or any Events of Default arising under the Loan Documents
which may occur after the Forbearance Effective Date (whether the same or similar to any Specified Default or otherwise), and nothing
contained herein shall be deemed or constitute any such waiver.

 

(b)          No
Novation. This Agreement is not intended to be, and shall not be deemed or construed to be, a satisfaction, reinstatement,
novation, or release of the Loan Documents or any of the Obligations. Neither this Agreement nor any payments made or other actions
taken pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed to cure any defaults under any of the Loan Documents, it being the intention of
the parties hereto that the Obligors are and shall remain in default and all Obligations are and shall remain immediately due and
payable in full notwithstanding this Agreement.

 

(c)          Reservation
of Rights. Subject to Section 3 and Section 6, each Lender and the Agent reserves the right, in
their sole discretion, to exercise any or all rights or remedies under the Loan Documents, applicable law and otherwise as a
result of any Specified Default, any other Events of Default arising under the Loan Documents that may be continuing on the
Forbearance Effective Date or any Default or Event of Default arising under the Loan Documents that may occur after the
Forbearance Effective Date, and neither any Lender nor the Agent has waived any of such rights or remedies and nothing in
this Agreement, and no delay on any Lender’s or the Agent’s part in exercising such rights or remedies, should be
construed as a waiver of any such rights or remedies. Upon the termination of the Forbearance Period, the agreement of the
Lenders and the Agent to forbear and the other agreements of the Lenders and the Agent hereunder, in each case as set forth
in Section 3 above, shall automatically and without further action terminate and be of no force and effect, it
being understood and agreed that the effect of such termination will be to permit the Lenders and the Agent to exercise any
and all of its rights and remedies at any time and from time to time thereafter, including, without limitation, the right to
accelerate all or any portion of the Obligations, enforce the Agent’s Liens and exercise any other rights and remedies
set forth in the Loan Documents, applicable law or otherwise.

 

     17

     

    

 

(d)          Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary set forth herein (including, without limitation, the provisions of Section 3), nothing in
this Agreement shall prohibit, restrict or otherwise limit the right or ability of any Lender or the Agent to take any actions
that a Lender or the Agent may take under the Loan Documents, at law, in equity or otherwise to preserve and protect any assets
or properties of any Obligor that are subject to the Agent’s Liens or the interests (including the Agent’s Liens) of
the Lenders and the Agent in any such assets or properties, including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (i) the
filing of actions, or the defending of or intervention in actions (such as foreclosure proceedings) brought by any person or entity
(including any Obligor), relating to any such assets or properties or the interests of the Lenders and the Agent therein, (ii) the
sending of notices to any persons or entities concerning the existence of security interests or liens in favor of the Lenders and
the Agent relating to any such assets or properties or (iii) the filing of financing statements, and the taking of any other
required actions, to perfect or continue the perfection of the Agent’s Liens in such assets or properties.

 

(e)          The Obligors
acknowledge and agree that it shall be an immediate Event of Default under the Loan Documents if (i) any Obligor fails to
comply with, or otherwise breaches, any of the obligations or undertakings of such Obligor set forth in this Agreement or (ii) any
representation or warranty of any Obligor set forth herein fails to be true and correct in all respects.

 

SECTION 11.            Further Assurances. Each Obligor hereby agrees that each Obligor shall take such further action and shall execute and
deliver such additional documents and instruments (in recordable form, if requested) as the Lenders or the Agent may reasonably
request to effectuate the purposes and terms of this Agreement and each of the other Loan Documents, including, without limitation,
any such instruments, assignments, conveyances or other documents as the Lenders or the Agent reasonably requests to perfect or
continue the Agent’s Liens on any assets or properties of any Obligor.

 

SECTION 12.            Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed by the parties hereto individually or in combination, in one or
more counterparts, each of which shall be an original and all of which shall constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of
an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement by telecopier or electronic transmission (in pdf format) shall
be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

 

SECTION 13.            Successors and Assigns. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties
hereto and their respective successors and assigns.

 

SECTION 14.            Severability.
If any provision of this Agreement shall be held invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part in any jurisdiction, such
provision shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity or enforceability without in any
manner affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction or the remaining provisions of
this Agreement in any jurisdiction.

 

     18

     

    

 

SECTION 15.            Governing
Law. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND
INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. ANY DISPUTE ARISING OUT OF OR CONCERNING THE TERMS
OF THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE RESOLVED IN A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION LOCATED IN NEW YORK COUNTY, NEW YORK, USA, WHICH SHALL
BE THE EXCLUSIVE FORUM FOR THE RESOLUTION OF ANY SUCH DISPUTE.

 

SECTION 16.            Expenses. The Obligors, joint and severally, agree to pay, or reimburse, the Agent for all expenses incurred in connection
with the preparation and negotiation of this Agreement and related agreements and instruments and the transactions contemplated
hereby, including, but not limited to, the fees and expenses of counsel to the Agent.

 

SECTION 17.            Miscellaneous. The parties hereto shall, at any time and from time to time following the execution of this Agreement,
execute and deliver all such further instruments and take all such further action as may be reasonably necessary or appropriate
in order to carry out the provisions of this Agreement.

 

SECTION 18.            Headings. Section headings in this Agreement are included for convenience of reference only and are not to affect
the construction of, or to be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement.

 

SECTION 19.            Entire Agreement. This Agreement embodies the entire agreement of the parties hereto with respect to the subject
matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreement and understandings relating to the subject matter hereof. All prior statements,
representations and warranties, if any, of any Lender or the Agent in respect of the subject matter hereof, and all prior drafts
of this Agreement, are totally superseded and merged into this Agreement, which represents the final and sole agreement of the
parties hereto with respect to the matters which are the subject hereof. Each of the Obligors hereby acknowledges and agrees that
the execution and delivery of this Agreement has not established any course of dealing between the parties hereto and that the
parties hereto do not contemplate, and, in entering into this Agreement, the Obligors have not relied upon, any potential extension
of the Forbearance Period.

make certain loans and other financial accommodations to Borrowers.

 

WHEREAS, Holdings,

NOW, THEREFORE, in
consideration of the foregoing, the terms, covenants and conditions contained herein and other good and valuable consideration,

any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby;

 

(v)           that all notices required under the Loan Documents to be given by the Lenders or the Agent have been given by the Lenders or
the Agent or validly waived, including, without limitation, all notices of default, and all rights and/or opportunities to
cure related thereto have expired or lapsed;

 

    7

     

    

 

(vi)         except as expressly set forth herein, neither any Lender nor the Agent has agreed to (and has no obligation whatsoever to discuss,

Agent;

 

(viii)       the execution and delivery of this Forbearance Amendment has not established any course of dealing between the parties hereto or
created any obligation or agreement of any Lender or the Agent with respect to any future restructuring, modification, amendment,

SECTION 8. Ratification; Waiver of Defenses;
Indemnity and Release.

 

(a)           Ratification.
The Loan Documents remain in full force and effect and are hereby ratified and affirmed by each of the Obligors. Each of the Obligors,
jointly and severally, (i) confirms and agrees that it is truly and justly indebted to the Lenders and the Agent in the aggregate
amount of the Obligations without defense, counterclaim or offset of any kind whatsoever; and (ii) reaffirms and admits the validity
and enforceability of the Loan Documents.

(i)           
Each of Obligors, jointly and severally, on behalf of itself and each of its Subsidiaries and affiliates, hereby waives,

successors and assigns of each Lender and the Agent, from any and all claims, demands, actions, causes of action, damages,
costs, expenses and liabilities, known or unknown, anticipated or unanticipated, suspected or unsuspected, asserted or
unasserted, fixed, contingent or conditional, at law or in equity, arising out of or in any way relating to the Loan
Documents or any documents, agreements, dealings or other matters connected with the Loan Documents, in each case to the
extent arising (x) on or prior to the date hereof or (y)  out of, or relating to,
any actions, dealings or matters occurring on or prior to the date hereof. The waivers, releases, and discharges in this Section

    8

     

    

 

(ii)           It is
the intention of each Obligor that this Forbearance Amendment and the release set forth above shall constitute a full and final
accord and satisfaction of all claims that may have or hereafter be deemed to have against Releasees as set forth herein. In furtherance
of this intention, each Obligor, on behalf of itself and each other Releasor, expressly waives any statutory or common law provision
that would otherwise prevent the release set forth above from extending to claims that are not currently known or suspected to
exist in any Releasor’s favor at the time of executing this Forbearance Amendment and which, if known by Releasors, might
have materially affected the agreement as provided for hereunder. Each Obligor on behalf of itself and each other Releasor, acknowledges
that it is familiar with Section 1542 of California Civil Code:

 

A GENERAL RELEASE
DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE
RELEASE, WHICH IF KNOWN BY HIM OR HER MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR.

 

(iii)          Each
Obligor, on behalf of itself and each other Releasor, waives and releases any rights or benefits that it may have under
Section 1542 to the full extent that it may lawfully waive such rights and benefits, and each Obligor, on behalf of itself
and each other Releasor, acknowledges that it understands the significance and consequences of the waiver of the provisions
of Section 1542 and that it has been advised by its attorney as to the significance and consequences of this waiver.

 

(iv)          Each Obligor understands, acknowledges and agrees that the release set forth above may be pleaded as a full and complete defense
and may be used as

a  basis
for an injunction against any action, suit or other proceeding which may be instituted, prosecuted or attempted in breach of the
provisions of such release.

 

(v)          Each Obligor agrees that no fact, event, circumstance, evidence, or transaction which could now be asserted or which may hereafter
be discovered shall affect in any manner the final, absolute, and unconditional nature of the release set forth above.

 

(vi)         The waivers, releases, and discharges in this Forbearance Amendment shall be effective on the Forbearance Amendment Effective Date
regardless of whether any post-Forbearance Amendment Effective Date conditions to this Forbearance Amendment are satisfied and
regardless of any other event that may occur or not occur after the date hereof.

 

(c)           Indemnity.
In furtherance of its Obligations under Section 14.2 of the Loan Agreement, each of the Obligors, jointly and severally,
agrees to further defend, protect, indemnify and hold harmless each Lender and the Agent and all of their respective
officers, directors, employees, attorneys, consultants and agents (collectively called the “Indemnitees”)
from and against any and all losses, damages, liabilities, obligations, penalties, fees, reasonable costs and expenses
(including, without limitation, reasonable fees, costs and expenses of outside counsel) incurred by such Indemnitees, whether
direct, indirect or consequential, as a result of or arising from or relating to or in connection with any of the following:
(i) the execution or performance or enforcement of this Forbearance Amendment, any other Loan Document or any other document
executed in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Forbearance Amendment; or (ii) any claim, litigation,
investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether or not any Indemnitee is a party thereto. This

(d)          No
Waiver. This Forbearance Amendment shall be limited precisely as written and, except as expressly provided herein, shall not
be deemed (i) to be a consent granted pursuant to, or a (other than as set forth in Section 3 and Section 4) waiver,
modification or forbearance of, any term or condition of any of the Loan Documents or a waiver of any Default or Event of Default
under any of the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, the Specified Defaults), whether or not known to a Lender or the
Agent, or (ii) to prejudice any right or remedy which a Lender or the Agent may now have or have in the future under or in connection
with the Loan Documents or any of the instruments or agreements referred to therein. Subject to the forbearance in respect of
the Specified Defaults set forth in Section 3 of the Forbearance Agreement and the amendments set forth in Section 3
and Section 4 of this Forbearance Amendment, the Loan Documents shall continue in full force and effect and are hereby
ratified and confirmed.

 

(e)          Waiver
of Defense. Each of Obligors expressly acknowledges the occurrence and continued existence of the Specified Defaults. The
Obligors, jointly and severally, agree that each Lender and the Agent has no obligation (i) to grant the forbearance contemplated
by this Forbearance Amendment, (ii) to enter into discussions with the Obligors with regard to waiving the Specified Defaults,
or (iii) to enter into any amendment or modification of the terms and provisions of any Loan Document, and any of the same shall
be within the sole discretion of each Lender and the Agent. Each of the Obligors, jointly and severally, acknowledge and agree,
as a condition of the Lenders and the Agent entering into this Forbearance Amendment, that it shall not raise any claim, cause
of action or defense based upon any allegations of failure of any Lender or the Agent to do or agree to do any of the foregoing,
or failure of any Lender or the Agent to negotiate in good faith to accomplish any of the same.

 

    10

     

    

 

(f)          Waiver

IN ANY ACTION, SUIT, OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF, IN CONNECTION WITH OR RELATING TO, THIS FORBEARANCE AMENDMENT, THE OTHER
LOAN DOCUMENTS AND ANY OTHER TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY AND THEREBY, WHICH WAIVER APPLIES TO ANY ACTION, SUIT OR
PROCEEDING WHETHER SOUNDING IN TORT, CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE; (ii) PRESENTMENT, DEMAND AND PROTEST, AND NOTICE OF PRESENTMENT,

THE UNIFORM COMMERCIAL CODE; (v) ANY RIGHT BORROWERS OR ANY OTHER OBLIGOR MAY HAVE UPON PAYMENT IN FULL OF THE OBLIGATIONS TO
REQUIRE ANY LENDER PARTY TO TERMINATE ITS SECURITY INTEREST IN THE COLLATERAL, OTHER COLLATERAL OR IN ANY OTHER PROPERTY OF
BORROWERS OR ANY OTHER OBLIGOR UNTIL TERMINATION OF THE FORBEARANCE AMENDMENT IN ACCORDANCE WITH ITS TERMS AND THE EXECUTION
BY BORROWERS, AND BY ANY PERSON WHO PROVIDES FUNDS TO BORROWERS THAT ARE USED IN WHOLE OR IN PART TO SATISFY THE OBLIGATIONS,
OF AN AGREEMENT INDEMNIFYING ANY OR ALL OF THE LENDER PARTIES FROM ANY LOSS OR DAMAGE ANY SUCH PARTY MAY INCUR AS THE RESULT
OF DISHONORED CHECKS OR OTHER ITEMS OF PAYMENT RECEIVED BY SUCH LENDER PARTY FROM BORROWERS, OR ANY ACCOUNT DEBTOR AND
APPLIED TO THE OBLIGATIONS AND RELEASING AND INDEMNIFYING, IN THE SAME MANNER AS DESCRIBED IN SECTION 8 OF THIS FORBEARANCE
AMENDMENT, THE RELEASEES FROM ALL CLAIMS ARISING ON OR BEFORE THE DATE OF SUCH TERMINATION STATEMENT; AND (vi) NOTICE OF
ACCEPTANCE HEREOF, AND BORROWERS AND THE OTHER OBLIGORS EACH ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE FOREGOING WAIVERS ARE A MATERIAL
INDUCEMENT TO AGENT’S AND THE OTHER LENDER PARTIES’ ENTERING INTO THIS FORBEARANCE AMENDMENT AND THAT SUCH
PARTIES ARE RELYING UPON THE FOREGOING WAIVERS IN THEIR FUTURE DEALINGS WITH BORROWERS AND THE OTHER OBLIGORS. BORROWERS AND
THE OTHER OBLIGORS EACH WARRANTS AND REPRESENTS THAT IT HAS REVIEWED THE FOREGOING WAIVERS WITH ITS LEGAL COUNSEL AND HAS
KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVED ITS JURY TRIAL RIGHTS FOLLOWING CONSULTATION WITH LEGAL COUNSEL. IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION,

 (g)         Alternative
Dispute Resolution under California Law.

 

(i)           The reference provisions of this Section 8(g) will be applicable only if the jury trial waiver set forth in Section 8(f) hereof
is declared invalid or unenforceable and the Agent determines in its sole discretion to proceed as set forth in this Section 9(g).

 

    11

     

    

 

(ii)          Other
than (I) nonjudicial foreclosure of security interests in real or personal property, (II) the appointment of a receiver, or
(III) the exercise of other provisional remedies (any of which may be initiated pursuant to applicable law), each
controversy, dispute or claim (each, a “Disputed Claim”) between any or all of the parties hereto arising out of
or relating to the Loan Documents, which Disputed Claim is not settled in writing within 30 days after the “Claim
Date” (the date on which a party subject to the Loan Documents gives written notice to the other parties that a
Disputed Claim exists), will be resolved by a reference proceeding in California in accordance with the provisions of Section
638 et seq. of the California Code of Civil Procedure, or their successor sections (“CCP”), which shall
constitute the exclusive remedy for the resolution of any Disputed Claim concerning the Loan Documents, including whether the
Disputed Claim is subject to the reference proceeding. Except as set forth in this Section 8(g), the parties hereto waive the
right to initiate legal proceedings against each other concerning such Disputed Claims. Venue for these reference proceedings
will be in the courts of the State of California sitting in Los Angeles County or such other venue as the parties may agree
(the “Court”).

 

(iii)          In
the event that 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 of the Court, 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.

 

SECTION 9. No Waiver; No Novation; Reservation
of Rights.

 

(a)          No Waiver. Neither any Lender nor the Agent has waived, nor is any Lender or the Agent by this Forbearance Amendment waiving,
and neither any Lender nor the Agent has any present intention of waiving, any Specified Default, any other Events of Default arising
under the Loan Documents which may be continuing on the Forbearance Amendment Effective Date or any Events of Default arising under
the Loan Documents which may occur after the Forbearance Amendment Effective Date (whether the same or similar to any Specified
Default or otherwise), and nothing contained herein shall be deemed or constitute any such waiver.

 

(b)          No
Novation. This Forbearance Amendment is not intended to be, and shall not be deemed or construed to be, a satisfaction, reinstatement,
novation, or release of the Loan Documents or any of the Obligations. Neither this Forbearance Amendment nor any payments made
or other actions taken pursuant to this Forbearance Amendment shall be deemed to cure any defaults under any of the Loan Documents,
it being the intention of the parties hereto that the Obligors are and shall remain in default and all Obligations are and shall
remain immediately due and payable in full notwithstanding this Forbearance Amendment.

 

(c)          Reservation
of Rights. Subject to Section 3 of the Forbearance Agreement and Section 3 and Section 4 of this
Forbearance Amendment, each Lender and the Agent reserves the right, in their sole discretion, to exercise any or all rights
or remedies under the Loan Documents, applicable law and otherwise as a result of any Specified Default, any other Events of
Default arising under the Loan Documents that may be continuing on the Forbearance Amendment Effective Date or any Default or
Event of Default arising under the Loan Documents that may occur after the Forbearance Amendment Effective Date, and neither
any Lender nor the Agent has waived any of such rights or remedies and nothing in this Forbearance Amendment, and no delay on
any Lender’s or the Agent’s part in exercising such rights or remedies, should be construed as a waiver of any
such rights or remedies. Upon the termination of the Forbearance Period, the agreement of the Lenders and the Agent to
forbear and the other agreements of the Lenders and the Agent hereunder, in each case as set forth in Section 3 above,
shall automatically and without further action terminate and be of no force and effect, it being understood and agreed that
the effect of such termination will be to permit the Lenders and the Agent to exercise any and all of its rights and remedies
at any time and from time to time thereafter, including, without limitation, the right to accelerate all or any portion of
the Obligations, enforce the Agent’s Liens and exercise any other rights and remedies set forth in the Loan Documents,
applicable law or otherwise.

 

    12

     

    

 

(d)        Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein or in the Forbearance Agreement (including, without limitation, the provisions
of Section 3 of the Forbearance Agreement), nothing in this Forbearance Amendment shall prohibit, restrict or otherwise
limit the right or ability of any Lender or the Agent to take any actions that a Lender or the Agent may take under the Loan Documents,
at law, in equity or otherwise to preserve and protect any assets or properties of any Obligor that are subject to the Agent’s
Liens or the interests (including the Agent’s Liens) of the Lenders and the Agent in any such assets or properties, including,
without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (i) the filing of actions, or the defending of or intervention in actions (such
as foreclosure proceedings) brought by any person or entity (including any Obligor), relating to any such assets or properties
or the interests of the Lenders and the Agent therein, (ii) the sending of notices to any persons or entities concerning the existence
of security interests or liens in favor of the Lenders and the Agent relating to any such assets or properties or (iii) the filing
of financing statements, and the taking of any other required actions, to perfect or continue the perfection of the Agent’s
Liens in such assets or properties.

 

(e)        The Obligors acknowledge and agree that it shall be an immediate Event of Default under the Loan Documents if (i) any Obligor fails
to comply with, or otherwise breaches, any of the obligations or undertakings of such Obligor set forth in this Forbearance Amendment
or (ii) any representation or warranty of any Obligor set forth herein fails to be true and correct in all respects.

 

SECTION 10. Loan
Document Pursuant to Loan Agreement. Each of the Obligors, Agent, and the Lenders hereby acknowledge and agree that the
Forbearance Agreement, as may be amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, including by this Forbearance
Amendment, constitutes a Loan Document as defined in the Loan Agreement.

 

SECTION 11. Further
Assurances. Each Obligor hereby agrees that each Obligor shall take such further action and shall execute and deliver such
additional documents and instruments (in recordable form, if requested) as the Lenders or the Agent may reasonably request to effectuate
the purposes and terms of this Forbearance Amendment and each of the other Loan Documents, including, without limitation, any such
instruments, assignments, conveyances or other documents as the Lenders or the Agent reasonably requests to perfect or continue
the Agent’s Liens on any assets or properties of any Obligor.

 

SECTION 12. Counterparts.
This Forbearance Amendment may be executed by the parties hereto individually or in combination, in one or more counterparts,
each of which shall be an original and all of which shall constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed
counterpart of a signature page to this Forbearance Amendment by telecopier or electronic transmission (in pdf format) shall
be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Forbearance Amendment.

 

    13

     

    

 

SECTION 13. Successors
and Assigns. The provisions of this Forbearance Amendment shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties
hereto and their respective successors and assigns.

 

SECTION 14. Severability.
If any provision of this Forbearance Amendment shall be held invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part in any jurisdiction,
such provision shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity or enforceability without in any
manner affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction or the remaining provisions of this
Forbearance Amendment in any jurisdiction.

 

SECTION 15. Governing Law. THIS
FORBEARANCE AMENDMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND
INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. ANY DISPUTE ARISING OUT OF OR CONCERNING THE
TERMS OF THIS FORBEARANCE AMENDMENT SHALL BE RESOLVED IN A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION LOCATED IN NEW YORK COUNTY, NEW
YORK, USA, WHICH SHALL BE THE EXCLUSIVE FORUM FOR THE RESOLUTION OF ANY SUCH DISPUTE.

 

SECTION 16. Expenses.
The Obligors, joint and severally, agree to pay, or reimburse, the Agent for all expenses incurred in connection with the preparation
and negotiation of this Forbearance Amendment and related agreements and instruments and the transactions contemplated hereby,
including, but not limited to, the fees and expenses of counsel to the Agent.

 

SECTION 17. Miscellaneous.
The parties hereto shall, at any time and from time to time following the execution of this Forbearance Amendment, execute and
deliver all such further instruments and take all such further action as may be reasonably necessary or appropriate in order to
carry out the provisions of this Forbearance Amendment.

 

SECTION 18. Headings.
Section headings in this Forbearance Amendment are included for convenience of reference only and are not to affect the construction
of, or to be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Forbearance Amendment.

 

SECTION 19. Entire
Agreement. This Forbearance Amendment embodies the entire agreement of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter
hereof and supersedes all prior agreement and understandings relating to the subject matter hereof. All prior statements, representations
and warranties, if any, of any Lender or the Agent in respect of the subject matter hereof, and all prior drafts of this Forbearance
Amendment, are totally superseded and merged into this Forbearance Amendment, which represents the final and sole agreement of
the parties hereto with respect to the matters which are the subject hereof. Each of the Obligors hereby acknowledges and agrees
that the execution and delivery of this Forbearance Amendment has not established any course of dealing between the parties hereto
and that the parties hereto do not contemplate, and, in entering into this Forbearance Amendment, the Obligors have not relied
upon, any potential extension of the Forbearance Period.
