provided, however, that, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Buyer may not designate any Lease for exclusion and rejection if such exclusion and rejection would result in fewer than 140 Leases being assumed and assigned to
Buyer. Upon delivery of a notification by Buyer with respect to any Non-Real Property Contract or Lease under Section 2.6(b)(i), the applicable Seller shall move in the Bankruptcy Court within 5 days of receipt of such notice to assign
such Non-Real Property Contract or Lease to Buyer and shall assume and assign to, and Buyer shall accept the assignment of and assume such Non-Real Property Contract or Lease. Upon delivery of a notification by Buyer with respect to any Non-Real
Property Contract or Lease under Section 2.6(b)(ii), the applicable Seller shall move in the Bankruptcy Court within 5 days of receipt of such notice to reject such Non-Real Property Contract or Lease as of the applicable Rejection
Effective Date. In the event that Buyer has not provided a written designation to assume and assign or reject any Non-Real Property Contract or Lease pursuant to this Section 2.6(b) by the Designation Deadline, then such

  
 20 

 
Non-Real Property Contract or Lease shall be deemed to be excluded and rejected and Sellers may move in the Bankruptcy Court to reject such Non-Real Property Contract or Lease as of the
Designation Deadline (which Designation Deadline shall constitute the Rejection Effective Date with respect thereto), and no Seller shall have any obligation to assign any such Non-Real Property Contract or Lease to Buyer hereunder. Any Non-Real
Property Contract or Lease that is designated (or deemed to be designated) for exclusion and rejection pursuant to this Section 2.6(b) shall constitute an “Excluded Contract” as of the Closing Date or, if thereafter, as
of the Rejection Effective Date. To the extent that a Non-Real Property Contract or Lease has not at Closing been designated as an Excluded Contract or an Assumed Contract, then, until the Rejection Effective Date, Buyer shall be obligated to
perform or cause to be performed all of Sellers’ obligations under such Non-Real Property Contract or Lease, and Buyer shall be entitled to all benefits of Sellers thereunder; provided that no Cure Amount shall be due with respect to
such Non-Real Property Contract or Lease until the permanent assumption thereof at Assumption Approval in accordance with Section 2.6(g). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, prior to the Designation Deadline,
Buyers shall have designated for assumption by Sellers and assignment to Buyers such number of Leases that when added to any Leases included in the Assumed Contracts as of the Closing equals at least 140 Leases. In determining the total number of
Leases assumed and assigned to Buyer, the following shall be included (in addition to Leases actually assumed and assigned to Buyer): (x) store locations that were previously closed by Sellers but reopened by Buyer (provided that Buyer pays the
Cure Amounts due with respect to the Lease for such store); and (y) any Lease for which the landlord thereunder objects to the assignment and assumption of such Lease for any reason (other than payment of the Cure Amount) and such objection is
not resolved in a manner acceptable to Buyer. 
 (c) After the Closing and prior to the Designation Deadline, Sellers shall
not terminate, amend, supplement, modify, waive any rights under, or create any Lien with respect to any Non-Real Property Contract or any Lease, or take any affirmative action not required by the terms thereof, without the prior written consent of
Buyer (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), unless Buyer has provided notice to Sellers in writing designating such Non-Real Property Contract or Lease for rejection pursuant to Section 2.6(b). 

(d) Within three (3) Business Days of Buyer’s delivery of any notice of removal or designation of any Non-Real
Property Contract or Lease as an Assumed Contract by Buyer pursuant to Section 2.6(b), or such lesser time as is approved by the Bankruptcy Court, Sellers shall give notice of the removal or designation of such Non-Real Property Contract
or Lease as an Assumed Contract to the other parties thereto. 
 (e) As part of the Sale Motion (or as necessary in one or
more separate motions), Sellers shall request that, by virtue of any Seller providing ten (10) Business Days’ prior notice of its intent to assume and assign any Contract, the Bankruptcy Court deem any non-debtor party to such Contract
that does not file an objection with the Bankruptcy Court during such notice period to have given any required Consent to the assumption of the Contract by the relevant Seller and assignment to Buyer. 

  
 21 

 (f) In connection with the assumption and assignment to Buyer of any Assumed
Contract that is executory pursuant to this Section 2.6, the cure amounts, as determined by the Bankruptcy Court, if any (such amounts, the “Cure Amounts”), necessary to cure all defaults, if any, and to pay all actual
or pecuniary losses that have resulted from such defaults under the Assumed Contracts, including any amounts payable to any landlord under any Lease that is an Assumed Contract that relates to the period prior to the Assumption Approval, shall be
paid by Buyer, on or before the Assumption Approval, and not by Sellers and Sellers shall have no liability therefor, and neither the Cure Amounts paid by nor the expense of any other obligation set forth in this Section 2.6(f) shall
reduce, directly or indirectly, any consideration received by Sellers hereunder; provided that any applicable Cure Amounts with regard to Assumed Contracts listed in the Closing Assumed Contract List shall be paid by Buyer at the Closing.

 (g) Sellers shall use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to obtain an order of the Bankruptcy Court to
assign the Assumed Contracts to Buyer (the “Assumption Approval”) on the terms set forth in this Section 2.6. In the event Sellers are unable to assign any such Assumed Contract to Buyer pursuant to an order of the
Bankruptcy Court, then the Parties shall use their commercially reasonable efforts until the Designation Deadline to obtain, and to cooperate in obtaining, all Consents from Governmental Entities and third parties necessary to assume and assign such
Assumed Contracts to Buyer, including, in the case of Buyer, paying any applicable Cure Amounts. 
 (h) To the extent that
any Consent that is required to assign to Buyer any Assumed Contract is not obtained by the Designation Deadline, each Seller shall, with respect to each such Assumed Contract, from and after the Closing and until the earliest to occur of
(x) the date on which such applicable Consent is obtained (which Consents the Parties shall use their reasonable best efforts, and cooperate with each other, to obtain promptly; provided, however, that none of the Parties or any
of their respective Affiliates shall be required to pay any consideration therefor other than filing, recordation or similar fees, which shall be borne by Buyer), and (y) the date on which such Contract is rejected following the written request
of Buyer, use commercially reasonable efforts during the term of such Assumed Contract to (i) provide to Buyer the benefits under such Assumed Contract, (ii) cooperate in any reasonable and lawful arrangement (including holding such
Contract in trust for Buyer pending receipt of the required Consent) designed to provide such benefits to Buyer and (iii) use its commercially reasonable efforts to enforce for the account of Buyer any rights of such Seller under such Assumed
Contract (including the right to elect to terminate such Assumed Contract in accordance with the terms thereof upon the written direction of Buyer). Buyer shall reasonably cooperate with Sellers in order to enable Sellers to provide to Buyer the
benefits contemplated by this Section 2.6(h). 

  
 22 

 (i) Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Contract shall not be an Assumed Contract
hereunder and shall not be assigned to, or assumed by, Buyer to the extent that such Contract (i) is rejected by a Seller or terminated by a Seller in accordance with the terms hereof or by the other party thereto, or terminates or expires by
its terms, on or prior to the Designation Deadline and is not continued or otherwise extended upon assumption, or (ii) requires a Consent of any Governmental Entity or other third party (other than, and in addition to, that of the Bankruptcy
Court) in order to permit the sale or transfer to Buyer of Sellers’ rights under such Contract, and no such Consent has been obtained prior to the Designation Deadline. In addition, a Permit shall not be assigned to, or assumed by, Buyer to the
extent that such Permit requires a Consent of any Governmental Entity or other third party (other than, and in addition to, that of the Bankruptcy Court) in order to permit the sale or transfer to Buyer of Sellers’ rights under such Permit, and
no such Consent has been obtained prior to the Closing. 
 Section 2.7 Closing. The closing of the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement (the “Closing”) shall take place remotely by electronic exchange of counterpart signature pages commencing at 11:00 a.m. local time on the date (the “Closing Date”) that is the third
Business Day after the date on which all conditions to the obligations of Sellers and Buyer to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby set forth in Article VII (other than conditions with respect to actions Sellers and/or Buyer will
take at the Closing itself, but subject to the satisfaction or waiver of those conditions) have been satisfied or waived, or at such other time or on such other date as shall be mutually agreed upon by Sellers and Buyer prior thereto. The Closing
shall be deemed to have occurred at 11:59 p.m. (prevailing Eastern time) on the Business Day prior to the Closing Date. 

Section 2.8 Deliveries at Closing.

 (b) At the Closing, Buyer shall deliver to Sellers, or the designated third-party recipients
pursuant to Section 2.5, the following documents, cash amounts and other items, duly executed by Buyer, as applicable:

 (iii) the Cash Payment by wire transfer of

 (iv) a letter evidencing that all of the outstanding DIP Financing

credit facility that provides Buyer with undrawn availability of at least $10 million on the Closing Date, which exit credit facility shall not be used to fund the Cash Payment. 

Section 2.9 Allocation. Within thirty (30) calendar days after the Closing Date, Buyer shall in good faith prepare an
allocation of the Purchase Price (and all capitalized costs and other relevant items) among the Acquired Assets in accordance with Section 1060 of the IRC and the Treasury Regulations thereunder (and any similar provision of United States state
or local or non-United States Law, as appropriate), which allocation shall be binding upon Sellers and Buyer. Buyer and Sellers shall report, act and file Tax Returns (including Internal Revenue Service Form
8594) in all respects and for all purposes consistent with such allocation. Neither Buyer nor Sellers shall take any position (whether in audits, Tax Returns or otherwise) which is inconsistent with such allocation unless required to do so by
applicable Law. 

  
 24 

 Section 2.10 Non-Continuing Stores, Designated Stores and Continuing
Stores. 
 (a) As of the Closing, (i) any of Sellers’ store locations with respect to which the
associated Leases have been designated by Buyer as Assumed Contracts in accordance with Section 2.6(b) shall be deemed to have been classified as Continuing Stores, (ii) any of Sellers’ store locations with respect to which the
associated Leases have been classified as Excluded Contracts in accordance with Section 2.6(b) shall be deemed to have been classified as Non-Continuing Stores, and (iii) any of Sellers’ store locations with respect to which
the associated Leases have not yet been designated by Buyer as Assumed Contracts or Excluded Contracts shall be deemed to have been classified as Designated Stores. From time to time after the Closing Date, in accordance with
Section 2.6(b), Buyer may reclassify any Designated Store (x) as a Continuing Store by designating the Lease associated with such store as an Assumed Contract in accordance with Section 2.6(b) or (y) as a
Non-Continuing Store by designating the Lease associated with such store as an Excluded Contract in accordance with Section 2.6(b). 

(b) At any time prior to the Designation Deadline, Buyer may reclassify a Non-Continuing Store as a Continuing Store by
designating the Lease associated with such store as an Assumed Contract in accordance with Section 2.6(b) (except to the extent such Lease has already been moved for exclusion and rejection pursuant to the terms of
Section 2.6(b) or this Section 2.10). Upon such designation, such Non-Continuing Store shall be deemed to be a Continuing Store. 

(c) Operation of Designated Stores. 

(i) From and after the Closing until any Designated Store becomes a Continuing Store or a Non-Continuing Store in accordance
with Section 2.6(b) and this Section 2.10, Sellers hereby appoint Buyer, and Buyer shall serve, in accordance with the terms of this Section 2.10(c), as Sellers’ exclusive agent for the purpose of running the
Business at such the Designated Stores. During such period, (x) Buyer shall have sole and complete authority, in its sole discretion, to oversee, manage, direct the operation of, control the day-to-day activities of, and make and implement all
business decisions with respect to, any such Designated Stores, (y) Buyer shall receive all proceeds generated by operation of any such Designated Stores (the “Designated Store Proceeds”), including to the extent arising from
the sale of Products (exclusive of sales Tax), and (z) Buyer shall pay, and shall be solely responsible for, any and all Operational Expenses of Sellers that are directly related to the operation of such Designated Stores; provided,
that, all Operational Expenses constituting employee Liabilities shall be treated as set forth in Section 6.4. For the avoidance of doubt and subject to Section 6.4, the Operational Expenses owed by Sellers described above
shall include those Operational Expenses that are obligations of Sellers that accrue at any point during the period from the Closing until either (A) the Lease associated with such Designated Store is assumed and assigned to Buyer or
(B) the Rejection Effective Date of the Lease associated with such store has occurred; provided, that Buyer has exited the store premises and turned possession of the store premises over to the landlord, the condition of such store
premises to be turned over in accordance with the Lease associated with such store premises. In addition, Buyer shall perform, or shall cause to be performed, any and all obligations of Sellers arising following the Closing under any Non-Real
Property Contract or Lease related to 

  
 25 

 
the operation of any Designated Store (other than any such Non-Real Property Contract that has previously been designated for rejection and exclusion pursuant to Section 2.6(b)) from
and after the Closing until either (1) the Lease associated with such Designated Store is assumed and assigned to Buyer or (2) the Rejection Effective Date of the Lease associated with such Designated Store has occurred. 

(ii) To the extent deemed necessary by Buyer: 

(A) Buyer may establish new accounts (the “Buyer Accounts”) for the deposit of the Designated Store Proceeds
and the disbursement of amounts payable to Sellers under this Section 2.10(c), and Sellers shall promptly upon Buyer’s reasonable request execute and deliver all necessary documents to open and maintain such accounts;
provided, however, that Buyer may elect to continue to use the Designated Deposit Accounts as the Buyer Accounts. The Buyer Accounts shall be dedicated solely to the deposit of the Designated Store Proceeds and the disbursement of
amounts payable under this Section 2.10(c), and Buyer shall exercise sole signatory authority and control with respect to the Buyer Accounts. Sellers shall not be responsible for, and Buyer shall pay as an Operational Expense hereunder,
all bank fees and charges, including wire transfer charges, related to the Buyer Accounts. Upon Buyer’s designation of the Buyer Accounts, all Designated Store Proceeds (including credit card proceeds) shall be deposited into the Buyer
Accounts. During the period between the Closing and the date Buyer establishes the Buyer Accounts, if any, all Designated Store Proceeds (including credit card proceeds), shall be collected by Buyer and deposited on a daily basis into depository
accounts (as determined by Buyer) for the Designated Stores, which accounts shall be designated solely for the deposit of Designated Store Proceeds (including credit card proceeds), and the disbursement of amounts payable by Buyer under this
Section 2.10(c) (the “Designated Deposit Accounts”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Sellers shall have no ownership interest in, and shall not be entitled to withdraw any, Designated Store
Proceeds. 
 (B) Buyer shall have the right to use Sellers’ credit card facilities (including credit card terminals and
processors, credit card processor coding, the merchant identification numbers and existing bank accounts) for Designated Store Proceeds derived from credit card purchases (including Sellers’ proprietary credit card). In the event that Buyer
elects to use Sellers’ credit card facilities, Sellers shall process credit card transactions on behalf of Buyer and for Buyer’s account, applying customary practices and procedures. Without limiting the foregoing, Sellers shall cooperate
with Buyer to download data from all credit card terminals in the Designated Stores each day and to effect settlement with Sellers’ credit card processors, and shall take such other actions as are necessary to process credit card transactions
on behalf of Buyer under Sellers’ merchant identification numbers. At Buyer’s request, 

  
 26 

 
Sellers shall cooperate with Buyer to establish Sellers’ merchant identification numbers under Buyer’s name to enable Buyer to process all Designated Store Proceeds derived from credit
card purchases for Buyer’s account. 
 (iii) For the avoidance of doubt, nothing contained in this
Section 2.10(c) shall require Buyer to become, or to be considered or deemed, the employer of any person, and Buyer shall not become, or be considered or deemed to be, the employer of any person, unless and until Buyer, in its
discretion, chooses to employ such a person, it being understood that all agreements with respect to such matters are set forth exclusively in Section 6.4. 

(iv) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, without the prior written consent of Sellers, Buyer may assign any or
all of its rights and obligations under this Section 2.10(c) to any Person; provided that Buyer remains liable for performance under this Section 2.10(c). 

(d) Buyer shall indemnify and hold each Seller and its Representatives harmless from and against all claims, demands,
penalties, losses, liability or damage to the extent arising from or relating to the operation of any of the Designated Stores, Non-Continuing Stores or the Continuing Stores by Buyer after the Closing Date, including, without limitation, reasonable
attorneys’ fees and expenses, resulting from, or related to: (i) Buyer’s breach of or failure to comply with any of its agreements, covenants, representations or warranties contained in this Agreement and the Related Agreements or
applicable Law; (ii) any harassment or any other unlawful, tortious or otherwise actionable treatment of any customers or Representatives of any Seller by Buyer or any of its Representatives; (iii) any claims by any party engaged by Buyer
as an employee or independent contractor arising out of such employment; (iv) the gross negligence (including omissions) or willful misconduct of Buyer, its officers, directors, employees, agents or representatives; and (v) violations of
Law by Buyer, its officers, directors, employees, agents or representatives. 
 Section 2.11 Deposit. Prior to the date
hereof, Buyer made a cash deposit in the amount of $1,500,000 (the “Initial Deposit”) by wire transfer of immediately available funds and is being held by KTBS (as defined herein) as described below. Upon entry of the Sale Order by
the Bankruptcy Court, Buyer shall make an additional cash deposit in the amount of $1,000,000 (the “Additional Deposit”) by wire transfer of immediately available funds in accordance with such wire transfer instructions as are
provided by the Escrow Agent (as defined herein). The Initial Deposit, plus the Additional Deposit, plus any interest accrued thereon, is referred to herein as the “Deposit”. The Deposit is initially to be held in escrow by Klee
Tuchin Bogdanoff & Stern LLP, as trustee (“KTBS”), it being understood that no later than March 17, 2015, the Buyer will select a commercial bank, agreeable to the Sellers, as escrow agent (the “Escrow
Agent”), to hold the Deposit in escrow (the “Escrow Account”), and the Parties will direct KTBS to release the Deposit to the Escrow Agent. In the event that the Closing occurs, the Deposit (less any amounts used, with
prior written consent of Buyer, to satisfy obligations owed to B. Riley Financial, Inc.) will be applied to satisfy an equal portion of the Closing Payment, and Buyer shall direct the Escrow Agent to release the Deposit to Sellers at the Closing. In
any other 

  
 27 

 
event, the Deposit shall be released by the Escrow Agent to the Party entitled thereto in accordance with Section 8.4, and the Parties shall promptly direct the Escrow Agent to
release the Deposit accordingly. The Deposit shall only constitute property of the Sellers’ bankruptcy estates in the event that the Deposit is required to be released to Sellers by the Escrow Agent in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement. 
 ARTICLE III

individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 (d) None of the Sellers has any Subsidiaries (other than
other Sellers, if applicable). 
 Section 3.2 Authorization of Transaction. Subject to the Sale Order having been entered
and still being in effect and not subject to any stay pending appeal at the time of Closing:

requisite corporate power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and all Related Agreements to which it is a party and to perform its obligations hereunder and thereunder; the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and
all Related Agreements to which a Seller is a party have been duly authorized by such Seller and no other corporate action on the part of any Seller is necessary to authorize this Agreement or the Related Agreements to which it is party or to

Sellers in accordance with its terms and conditions, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium or other similar Laws relating to creditors’ rights and general principles of equity. Assuming, to the extent that it is a party

obligations of such Seller, as applicable, enforceable against Sellers, as applicable, in accordance with their respective terms and conditions, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium or other similar Laws relating to
creditors’ rights and general principles of equity. 
 Section 3.3 Noncontravention; Consents and Approvals.

 (a) Neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement, nor the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby

is an Assumed Contract hereunder, and, in the case of clause (ii) or (iii), for such conflicts, breaches, defaults, accelerations, rights or failures to give notice as would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.

 (b) Subject to the Sale Order having been entered and still being in effect (and not subject to any stay pending appeal at
the time of Closing), no Consent, notice or filing is required to be obtained by any Seller from, or to be given by any Seller to, or made by any Seller with, any Governmental Entity in connection with the execution, delivery and performance by any

notice or filing is required to be obtained by any Seller from, or to be given by any Seller to, or made by any Seller with, any Person that is not a Governmental Entity in connection with the execution, delivery and performance by any Seller of
this Agreement or any Related Agreement, except where the failure to give notice, file or obtain such authorization, consent or approval would not, individually or in the aggregate, be material to the Business as a whole.

 Section 3.4 Financial Statements; No Undisclosed Liabilities.  

(a) The Data Room or Sellers’ public securities filings contain true, correct and complete copies of the consolidated,

of income, changes in stockholders’ equity and cash flows of Sellers for the fiscal year period ended January 31, 2015 (such statements, the “Interim Financial Statements” and, collectively, with the Audited Financial

(b) Except as set forth in Section 3.4(b) of the Disclosure Schedule, Sellers do not have any material Indebtedness
or other Liabilities of a nature (whether accrued, absolute, contingent or otherwise) that would be required by GAAP to be reflected on a consolidated balance sheet of the Business (or in the notes thereto) that were not disclosed or reserved
against in the Historical Financial Statements, except for Indebtedness or other Liabilities that (i) were incurred on or after November 1, 2014 in the Ordinary Course of Business, (ii) arise under this Agreement or the Related

Business or the Acquired Assets, except in any such case where the failure to be in compliance would not have a Material Adverse Effect, and no Seller has received any written notice within the past twelve months relating to violations or alleged

(ii), for such failure to be in full force and effect, breaches or defaults which would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect on the Business.

Intellectual Property that is owned by any Seller and used in or related to the Business, (ii) all material Contracts pursuant to which any Seller obtains the right to use any Intellectual Property, and (iii) all material Contracts
pursuant to which any Seller grants to any other Person the right to use any Intellectual Property. Sellers own all such Registered Intellectual Property free and clear of all Liens (except for Permitted Liens), and all such Registered Intellectual
Property is valid, subsisting and, to Sellers’ Knowledge, enforceable, and is not subject to any outstanding Decree adversely affecting Sellers’ use thereof or rights thereto. Immediately after the Closing, Buyer will own or have the right
to, subject to the Sale Order having been entered and still being in effect and not subject to any stay pending appeal at the time of Closing, use all of the Intellectual Property included in the Acquired Assets on the same terms and conditions as
in effect for Sellers immediately prior to the Closing, to the fullest extent permissible under section 363(f) of the Bankruptcy Code and subject to the rights of licensees under section 365(n) of the Bankruptcy Code. 

(b) To Sellers’ Knowledge and except as set forth on Section 3.8 of the Disclosure Schedule, none of the use
of the Intellectual Property included in the Acquired Assets, the conduct of the Business as currently conducted, nor any of the Products sold or services provided by Sellers or any of their Affiliates in connection therewith, infringes upon or
otherwise violates the Intellectual Property of any other Person. To Sellers’ Knowledge, no third party is infringing any Intellectual Property owned by any Seller and included in the Acquired Assets, except as would not reasonably be expected
to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Business operates and performs in all material respects in accordance with its documentation and functional specifications and otherwise as required in connection with the Business, and has not malfunctioned or failed within the past twelve
(12) months in any manner that (i) resulted in a material disruption to the conduct of the Business or (ii) has had or could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. To Sellers’ Knowledge, such Technology does
not contain any “time bombs,” “Trojan horses,” “back doors,” “trap doors,” “worms,” viruses, bugs, faults or other devices or effects that (A) enable or assist any Person to access without

Material Adverse Effect. 
 (b) To the Sellers’ Knowledge, no Seller has received any written notice or report regarding

have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 (d) To Sellers’ Knowledge, there has been no release, threatened release,
contamination or disposal of Hazardous Substances at any Leased Real Property, or waste generated by any Seller or any legally responsible predecessor corporation thereof, that has given or could reasonably be expected to give rise to any Liability

access during normal business hours, and in a manner so as not to interfere unreasonably with the normal business operations of Sellers, to all premises, properties, personnel, Records and 

  
 44 

 
Contracts related to the Business, in each case, for the sole purpose of evaluating the Business; provided, however, that, for avoidance of doubt, the foregoing shall not require
any Party to waive, or take any action with the effect of waiving, its attorney-client privilege or any confidentiality obligation to which it is bound with respect thereto or take any action in violation of
applicable Law. 
 (b) All information obtained pursuant to this Section 5.6 shall be subject to the terms and
conditions of the Confidentiality Agreement. 
 Section 5.7 Press Releases and Public Announcements. Prior to the Closing
and for a period of ninety days following the Closing Date, no Party shall issue any press release or make any public announcement relating to the subject matter of this Agreement without the prior written approval of each of Buyer and WSI;
provided, however, that (a) any Party may disclose that this Agreement exists (but not the terms hereof) and (b) any Party may make (and permit the making of) any public disclosure that it believes in good faith is required
by applicable Law or court process (in which case the disclosing Party, as applicable, shall use its reasonable best efforts to advise the other Parties, as applicable, prior to making the disclosure). 

Section 5.8 Bulk Transfer Laws. Buyer acknowledges that Sellers will not comply with the provisions of any bulk transfer
Laws of any jurisdiction in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and hereby waives all claims related to the non-compliance therewith. The Parties intend that pursuant to
section 363(f) of the Bankruptcy Code, the transfer of the Acquired Assets shall be free and clear of any Liens in the Acquired Assets, including any Liens arising out of the bulk transfer Laws, and the Parties shall take such steps as may be
necessary or appropriate to so provide in the Sale Order. 
 Section 5.9 Suppliers. Sellers shall, following the request
thereof by Buyer, seek and use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to arrange meetings and telephone conferences with material suppliers of Sellers as may be reasonably requested by Buyer and necessary and appropriate for Buyer to
coordinate transition of such suppliers following the Closing. For the avoidance of doubt, Buyer shall be permitted to contact any customers, suppliers or licensors of the Business in connection with or pertaining to any matter; provided, however,
that during the period from the date hereof until the Closing, (i) Buyer shall give prior notice to Sellers, and (ii) Sellers shall be permitted, but shall not be obligated, to attend and participate in any meeting or telephone conference
with such customers, suppliers or licensors to the extent reasonably requested. 
 Section 5.10 No Competing
Transactions. Sellers shall not, and shall cause the their Representatives not to: (a) initiate, solicit or encourage any inquiries concerning an Acquisition Proposal or a Competing Transaction; (b) engage in any negotiations
concerning, or provide any confidential information or data to, or have any discussions with, any Person relating to an Acquisition Proposal or a Competing Transaction; (c) facilitate any effort or attempt to make or implement an Acquisition
Proposal; or (d) consummate or agree or commit to consummate an Acquisition Proposal or a Competing Transaction. Sellers shall, and shall cause their Representatives to, immediately cease or cause to be terminated any existing activities,
discussions or negotiations with any Person relating to any of the foregoing activities. 

  
 45 

 Section 5.11 Delivery of Disclosure Schedule. No later than
March 20, 2015, Sellers shall deliver to Buyer the “Disclosure Schedule”, which shall be in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Buyer (it being understood that if any disclosure set forth thereon is materially inconsistent
with, or would cause the representations and warranties of Sellers in this Agreements to be materially inconsistent with, the information contained in the Data Room prior to the date hereof or the schedules filed by Sellers in the Bankruptcy Court
in connection with the Chapter 11 Cases prior to the date hereof, then a Material Adverse Effect shall be deemed to have occurred and Buyer shall be entitled to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(b)(ii)). 

ARTICLE VI 
 OTHER
COVENANTS. 
 The Parties agree as follows with respect to the period from and after the Closing: 

Section 6.1 Cooperation. Each of the Parties shall cooperate with each other, and shall use their commercially reasonable
efforts to cause their respective Representatives to cooperate with each other, to provide an orderly transition of the Acquired Assets and Assumed Liabilities from Sellers to Buyer and to minimize the disruption to the Business resulting from the
transactions contemplated hereby. 
 Section 6.2 Further Assurances. In case at any time from and after the Closing any
further action is necessary or reasonably required to carry out the purposes of this Agreement, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms and conditions of the Sale Order, at any Party’s request and sole cost and
expense, each Party shall take such further action (including the execution and delivery to any other Party of such other reasonable instruments of sale, transfer, conveyance, assignment, assumption and confirmation and providing materials and
information) as another Party may reasonably request as shall be necessary to transfer, convey and assign to Buyer all of the Acquired Assets, to confirm Buyer’s assumption of the Assumed Liabilities and to confirm Sellers’ retention of
the Excluded Assets and Excluded Liabilities. Without limiting the generality of this Section 6.2, to the extent that either Buyer or Sellers discovers any additional assets or properties which should have been transferred or assigned to
Buyer as Acquired Assets but were not so transferred or assigned, Buyer and Sellers shall cooperate and execute and deliver any instruments of transfer or assignment necessary to transfer and assign such asset or property to Buyer. 

Section 6.3 Availability of Business Records. From and after the Closing, Buyer shall promptly provide to Sellers and their
respective Representatives and the Trustee (after reasonable notice and during normal business hours and without charge to Sellers) access to all Records included in the Acquired Assets for periods prior to the Closing and reasonable access to
Transferred Employees to the extent such access is necessary in order for Sellers or the Trustee (as applicable) to comply with applicable Law or any contract to which it is a party, for liquidation, winding up, Tax reporting or other proper
purposes and so long as such access is subject to an obligation of confidentiality, and shall preserve such Records until the latest of (i) seven years after the Closing Date, (ii) the required retention period for all government contact
information, records or documents, (iii) the conclusion of all bankruptcy proceedings relating to the Chapter 11 Cases or (iv) in the case of Records related to Taxes, the expiration of the statute

  
 46 

 
of limitation applicable to such Taxes. Such access shall include access to any information in electronic form to the extent reasonably available. Buyer acknowledges that Sellers have the right
to retain originals or copies of all of Records included in the Acquired Assets for periods prior to the Closing. Prior to destroying any Records included in the Acquired Assets for periods prior to the Closing, Buyer shall notify Sellers thirty
days in advance of any such proposed destruction of its intent to destroy such Records, and Buyer shall permit Sellers to retain such Records, at Sellers’ cost and expense. With respect to any Litigation and claims that are Excluded
Liabilities, Buyer shall render all reasonable assistance that Sellers and the Trustee may request in defending or prosecuting such Litigation or claim and shall make available to Sellers and the Trustee such personnel as are most knowledgeable
about the matter in question, all without charge. 
 Section 6.4 Employee Matters. 

(a) With the exception of the Selected Employees, each Seller shall, effective as of the day prior to the Closing Date,
discharge all Current Employees. Prior to the Closing, Buyer (through and in consultation with Ed Thomas in his capacity as chief executive officer of Buyer) shall offer (or cause a designee of Buyer to offer) to employ those Current Employees
(i) to operate the Continuing Stores (once so designated) (provided that such Current Employees will be advised that such offer may be rescinded if the Lease for such Designated Store is rejected), with employment commencing as of the date that
such Designated Store becomes a Continuing Store and such Lease is assumed or (ii) to be employed in the Buyer’s head office with employment commencing on the Closing Date. For purposes of this Agreement, each Current Employee who receives
such an offer of employment shall be referred to as an “Offeree.” Prior to the Closing Date, Buyer will provide Sellers with a schedule setting forth a list of the names of all Offerees. Each Offeree who accepts such offer prior to
the Closing shall be referred to herein as a “Transferred Employee.” Except to the extent Sellers fail to comply in any material respects with Section 6.4(c)(i) and Section 6.4(c)(iii), Buyer hereby agrees
that the offer to an Offeree shall include a level of base salary, wages and benefits that are substantially comparable in the aggregate to the base salary, wages and benefits provided to such Offeree by Sellers as of the Closing Date. 

(b) Each Current Employee of Sellers who is not a Transferred Employee shall be referred to herein as an “Excluded
Employee.” 
 (c) Following the date of this Agreement, 

(i) Sellers shall allow Buyer or any of its Representatives reasonable access upon reasonable advance notice to meet with and
interview the Current Employees who are members of executive management and other employees reasonably requested during normal business hours; provided, however, that such access shall not unduly interfere with the operation of the
Business prior to the Closing; 

  
 47 

 (ii) Sellers shall not, nor shall any Seller authorize or direct or give express
permission to any Affiliate, officer, director or employee of any Seller or any Affiliate, to (A) interfere with Buyer’s or its Representatives rights under Section 6.4(a) to make offers of employment to any Offeree, or
(B) solicit or encourage any Offeree not to accept, or to reject, any such offer of employment; and 
 (iii) Sellers
shall provide reasonable cooperation and information to Buyer or the relevant Representative as reasonably requested by Buyer or such Representative with respect to its determination of appropriate terms and conditions of employment for any Offeree.

 (d) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, 

(i) Sellers shall process the payroll for and pay, or cause to be paid, the base wages, base salary and benefits that are due
and payable on or prior to the Closing Date with respect to all employees of Sellers; 
 (ii) from the Closing Date until
(x) the date upon which a Designated Store or a Non-Continuing Store becomes a Continuing Store or (y) the Rejection Effective Date associated with such store has occurred, Buyer shall (or shall cause its designee to) process the payroll
for, and Buyer shall be liable for and shall pay, or cause to be paid, the base wages, base salary and benefits that accrue after the Closing Date with respect to all employees of Sellers that are required, in Buyer’s sole discretion, to remain
employed by Sellers to operate such Designated Store or Non-Continuing Store (the “Selected Employees”); and 

(iii) Buyer shall process the payroll for and shall pay, or cause to be paid, base wages, base salary and benefits that accrue
after the Closing Date with respect to all Transferred Employees. Buyer shall withhold and remit all applicable payroll taxes as required by Law after the Closing Date with respect to Transferred Employees. In addition, Buyer shall (or shall cause
its designee to) process all employee and Tax reporting covering the periods prior to the Closing in connection with the Excluded Employees and the Transferred Employees that will be required to be prepared and delivered after the Closing. 

For the avoidance of doubt, and without limiting the effect of any other term of this Agreement, if Buyer prior to the Closing Date has
designated a Lease for a store for rejection by providing written notice to Sellers in accordance with Section 2.6, Buyer shall not be liable for any employee/employment related Liabilities with respect to the employees of such store,
with the exception of Buyer’s payment obligations to Seller as expressly set out in this Section 6.4. Likewise, Buyer shall not be liable for any employee/employment Liabilities related to the employment of Selected Employees in
Designated Stores or Non-Continuing Stores, with the exception of Buyer’s payment obligations to Seller as expressly set out in this Section 6.4. 

(e) Nothing contained herein shall be construed as requiring, and neither Sellers nor any of their Affiliates shall take any
affirmative action that would have the effect of requiring, Buyer to continue any specific employee benefit plan or to continue 

  
 48 

 
the employment of any specific person. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to establish, create or amend, nor shall anything in this Agreement be construed as establishing, creating or
amending, any employee benefit plan, practice or program of Buyer, any of its Affiliates or any of Sellers’ Employee Benefit Plans, nor shall anything in this Agreement create or be construed as creating any contract of employment or as
conferring upon any Transferred Employee or upon any other person, other than the parties to this Agreement in accordance with its terms, any rights to enforce any provisions of this Agreement under ERISA or otherwise. 

(f) From and after the Closing Date until the Designation Deadline, Sellers shall not voluntarily terminate any Selected
Employee of Sellers without the prior written consent of Buyer. 
 (g) At Closing, Buyer will offer employment to Ed Thomas,
Christine Lee, Jon Kubo, Rachel Page, Tom Hillebrandt and Kim Bajrech, on the terms outlined in the email exchange between Ed Thomas and Greg Segall on March 7, 2015 concluding at 4:21 pm Pacific Time. 

Section 6.5 Recording of Intellectual Property Assignments. All of the Intellectual Property Assignments shall be
recorded and filed by Buyer with the appropriate Governmental Entities as promptly as practicable following the Closing. 

Section 6.6 Transfer Taxes. To the extent not exempt under section 1146 of the Bankruptcy Code, then Buyer shall pay
any stamp, documentary, registration, transfer, added-value or similar Tax (each, a “Transfer Tax”) imposed under any applicable Law in connection with the transactions contemplated by
Article II of this Agreement. Sellers and Buyer shall cooperate to prepare and timely file any Tax Returns required to be filed in connection with Transfer Taxes described in the immediately preceding sentence. 

Section 6.7 Wage Reporting. Buyer and Sellers agree to utilize, or cause their respective Affiliates to
utilize, the standard procedure set forth in Internal Revenue Service Revenue Procedure 2004-53 with respect to wage reporting. 

Section 6.8 Acknowledgements. Buyer acknowledges that it has received from Sellers certain projections, forecasts
and prospective or third party information relating to Sellers, the Business, the Acquired Assets, the Assumed Liabilities or any related topics. Buyer acknowledges that (i) there are uncertainties inherent in attempting to make such
projections and forecasts and in such information, (ii) Buyer is familiar with such uncertainties and is taking full responsibility for making its own evaluation of the adequacy and accuracy of all projections, forecasts and information so
furnished, and (iii) neither Buyer nor any other Person shall have any claim against any Seller, its Affiliates or their respective Representatives with respect thereto. Accordingly, without limiting the generality of Section 3.4,
Sellers make no representations or warranties with respect to such projections, forecasts or information. 
 Section 6.9 Certain
Avoidance Actions. The Parties acknowledge and agree that: (a) upon execution of a Participating Vendor Agreement (in form and substance acceptable to Buyer) with Buyer no later than ninety (90) days following the
Closing Date, the applicable 

  
 49 

 
Participating Vendor shall be entitled to a waiver and release of any and all claims and causes of action against such Participating Vendor arising under section 547 of the Bankruptcy Code; and
(b) Sellers shall not pursue any litigation, claims and/or causes of action (including causes of action under Chapter 5 of the Bankruptcy Code) against any Participating Vendor (or any vendor who could be a Participating Vendor, unless and
until it is determined that such vendor is not a Participating Vendor, in which case, Sellers may only pursue a claim or cause of action against such vendor to the extent such claim or cause of action is an Excluded Asset hereunder). 

Section 6.10 Insurance Policies. 

(a) To the extent that any current or prior Insurance Policy is not transferable to Buyer at the Closing in accordance with the
terms thereof, each Seller, as applicable, shall hold such Insurance Policy for the benefit of Buyer, shall reasonably cooperate with Buyer (at Buyer’s cost and expense) in pursuing any claims thereunder, and shall pay over to Buyer promptly
any insurance proceeds paid or recovered thereunder with respect to the Acquired Assets or the Assumed Liabilities. In the event Buyer determines to purchase replacement coverage with respect to any such Insurance Policy, Sellers shall reasonably
cooperate with Buyer to terminate such Insurance Policy to the extent only applicable to the Acquired Assets, and Sellers shall, at the option of Buyer, promptly pay over to Buyer any refunded or returned insurance premiums received by any Sellers
in connection therewith (or, if applicable, Buyer’s pro rata portion thereof) or cause such premiums to be applied by the applicable carrier to the replacement coverage arranged by Buyer. 

(b) To the extent that any current or prior Insurance Policy of any Seller relates to the Acquired Assets or Assumed
Liabilities and the Excluded Assets or the Excluded Liabilities, and such Insurance Policy is transferred to Buyer at the Closing, Buyer shall hold such Insurance Policy with respect to the Excluded Assets or Excluded Liabilities, as applicable, for
the benefit of Sellers, shall reasonably cooperate with Sellers in pursuing any claims thereunder, and shall pay over to Sellers promptly any insurance proceeds paid or recovered thereunder with respect to the Excluded Assets or the Excluded
Liabilities. 
 Section 6.11 Collection of Accounts Receivable. 

(a) As of the Closing Date, each Seller hereby (i) authorizes Buyer to open any and all mail addressed to any Seller
relating to the Business or the Acquired Assets and delivered to the offices of the Business or otherwise to Buyer if received on or after the Closing Date and (ii) appoints Buyer or its attorney-in-fact to endorse, cash and deposit any monies,
checks or negotiable instruments received by Buyer after the Closing Date with respect to Accounts Receivable that are Acquired Assets or accounts receivable relating to work performed by Buyer after the Closing, as the case may be, made payable or
endorsed to any Seller or Seller’s order, for Buyer’s own account. 

  
 50 

 (b) As of the Closing Date, each Seller agrees that any monies, checks or
negotiable instruments received by any Seller after the Closing Date with respect to Accounts Receivable (including, without limitation, Credit Card Receivables) that are Acquired Assets or accounts receivable relating to work performed by Buyer
after the Closing, as the case may be, shall be held in trust by such Seller for Buyer’s benefit and account, and promptly upon receipt by a Seller of any such payment (but in any event within five (5) Business Days of such receipt), such
Seller shall pay over to Buyer or its designee the amount of such payments. In addition, Buyer agrees that, after the Closing, it shall hold and shall promptly transfer and deliver to Sellers, from time to time as and when received by Buyer or its
Affiliates, any cash, checks with appropriate endorsements, or other property that Buyer or its Affiliates may receive on or after the Closing which properly belongs to Sellers hereunder, including any Excluded Assets. 

(c) As of the Closing Date, Buyer shall have the sole authority to bill and collect Accounts Receivable that are Acquired
Assets and accounts receivable relating to work performed by Buyer after the Closing. 
 Section 6.12 Name Changes.
Neither Sellers nor any of their Affiliates shall use, license or permit any third party to use, any name, slogan, logo or trademark which is similar or deceptively similar to any of the names, trademarks or service marks included in the
Intellectual Property included in the Acquired Assets, and within 21 days following the Closing Date, each Seller shall change its corporate name to a name which (a) does not use the name “Wet Seal”, “WTSL” or any other name
that references or reflects any of the foregoing in any manner whatsoever, (b) is otherwise substantially dissimilar to its present name and (c) is approved in writing by Buyer.

(a) Notwithstanding anything expressed or implied herein to the contrary, (i) neither Sellers nor Trustee shall consent or
agree to the allowance or re-classification of any Claim as an Administrative Claim or a Priority Claim without the prior written consent of Buyer and (ii) no Administrative Claims or Priority Claims can be classified or re-classified as a
general unsecured claim without the consent of the Sellers or the Trustee, as applicable, or an order of the Bankruptcy Court. 

(b) The Plan shall be (i) consistent with the terms of this Agreement and the Letter Agreement and (ii) reasonably
acceptable to Buyer.

 Section 9.10 Specific Performance. 

(a) Each of the Parties acknowledges and agrees that the other Parties (collectively, the “Enforcing Parties”)
would be damaged irreparably in the event any provision of this Agreement is not performed in accordance with its specific terms or otherwise breached, so that, in addition to any other remedy that each of the Parties may have under Law or equity,
each of the Parties shall be entitled to injunctive relief to prevent breaches of the provisions of this Agreement and to enforce specifically this Agreement and the terms and provisions hereof (except as otherwise expressly set forth herein). 

(b) Each of the Parties agrees that it shall not oppose the granting of specific performance or an injunction sought in
accordance with this Section 9.10 on the basis that the Enforcing Parties have an adequate remedy at law or that any award of specific performance is, for any reason, not an appropriate remedy (except as otherwise expressly set forth
herein). The Enforcing Parties shall not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with any such injunction or other equitable remedy. The End Date shall be tolled from the date any of the Enforcing Parties files a petition

unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provisions of this Agreement. If any provision of this Agreement, or the application thereof to any Person or any circumstance, is
invalid or unenforceable, (a) a suitable and equitable provision shall be substituted therefor in order to carry out, so far as may be valid and enforceable, the intent and purpose of such invalid or unenforceable provision, and (b) the
remainder of this Agreement and the application of such provision to other Persons or circumstances shall not be affected by such invalidity or unenforceability, nor shall such invalidity or unenforceability in any one jurisdiction affect the
validity or enforceability of such provision, or the application thereof, in any other jurisdiction.

of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and actual days elapsed. Interest shall accrue on each Loan for the day on which the Loan is made, and shall not accrue on a Loan, or any portion thereof, for the day on which the Loan or such
portion is paid, provided that any Loan that is repaid on the same day on which it is made shall, subject to Section 2.12(a), bear interest for one day. Each determination by the Lender of an interest rate or fee hereunder shall
be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. 
 2.11 Evidence of Debt. 

The Loans made by the Lender shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or records maintained by the Lender (the “Loan
Account”) in the ordinary course of business, which shall include the date and amount of each Loan from the Lender, each payment and prepayment of principal of any such Loan, and each payment of interest, fees and other amounts due in
connection with the Obligations due to the Lender. The accounts or records maintained by the Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error of the amount of the Loans made by the Lender to the Borrowers and the interest and payments thereon. Any
failure to so record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the Borrowers hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to the Obligations. Upon the request of the Lender, the Borrowers shall
execute and deliver to the Lender a Note in the amount of the Commitment, which shall evidence the Lender’s Loans in addition to such accounts or records. The Lender may attach schedules to its Note and endorse thereon the date amount and
maturity of its Loans and payments with respect thereto. Upon receipt of an affidavit of a Lender as to the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of such Lender’s Note together with an indemnity from the Lender related thereto in form and
substance reasonably acceptable to the Borrowers, and upon cancellation of such Note, the Borrowers will issue, in lieu thereof, a replacement Note in favor of the Lender, in the same principal amount thereof and otherwise of like tenor. 

2.12 Payments Generally; Funding Source. 

(a) General. All payments to be made by the Borrowers shall be made without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense,
recoupment or setoff. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by the Borrowers hereunder shall be made to the Lender at the Lender’s Office in Dollars and in immediately available funds not later than 2:00 p.m. on the date

  
 29 

 
specified herein. All payments received by the Lender after 2:00 p.m. shall, at the option of the Lender, be deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day and any applicable interest or fee
shall continue to accrue. If any payment to be made by the Borrowers shall come due on a day other than a Business Day, payment shall be made on the next following Business Day, and such extension of time shall be reflected in computing interest or
fees, as the case may be. 
 (b) Funding Source. Nothing herein shall be deemed to obligate the Lender to obtain the funds for any
Loan in any particular place or manner or to constitute a representation by the Lender that it has obtained or will obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner. 

2.13 Priority; Liens. All of the Obligations are secured by Liens on substantially all the assets of the Borrowers and, at all times,
shall constitute administrative expenses of the Borrowers in the Bankruptcy Case with priority under Section 364(c)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code over any and all other administrative expenses of the kind specified in Sections 503(b) and 507(b) of
the Bankruptcy Code, subject and subordinate only to the Professional Fee Carve Out. No other claims, except for the aforementioned, having a priority superior or pari passu to that granted to or on behalf of the Lender shall be granted or
approved while any of the Obligations or the Commitment remain outstanding. 
 ARTICLE III 

TAXES, YIELD PROTECTION AND ILLEGALITY; 

APPOINTMENT OF LEAD BORROWER 

3.01 Taxes. 
 (a)
Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrowers hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without reduction or withholding for any Indemnified Taxes or
Other Taxes, provided that if the Borrowers shall be required by Law to deduct any Indemnified Taxes (including any Other Taxes) from such payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all
required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Borrowers shall make such
deductions and (iii) the Borrowers shall timely pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Law. 

(b) Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrowers. Without limiting the provisions of subsection (a) above, the Borrowers shall timely
pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Law. 
 (c) Indemnification by the Loan Parties. The
Loan Parties shall indemnify the Lender, within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under
this Section) paid by the Lender, and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant
Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Lead Borrower by the Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 

(d) Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by the Borrowers to a
Governmental Authority, the Lead Borrower shall deliver to the Lender the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such
payment reasonably satisfactory to the Lender. 

  
 30 

 (e) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If the Lender reasonably determines, that it has
received a refund of any Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Loan Parties or with respect to which the Borrowers have paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section, it shall pay to the Lead Borrower, with reasonable
promptness following the date upon which it actually realizes such benefit, an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrowers under this Section with respect to the Taxes
or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Lender, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund), provided that the Loan
Parties, upon the request of the Lender, agree to repay the amount paid over to the Lead Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Lender in the event that the Lender is required
to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This subsection shall not be construed to require the Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to the Loan Parties or
any other Person. 
 (f) FATCA. If a payment made to the Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding
Tax imposed by FATCA if the Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), the Lender shall deliver to the withholding
agent (i.e., any Loan Party), at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by such withholding agent, such documentation prescribed by applicable Law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i)
of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by such withholding agent as may be necessary for the withholding agent to comply with its obligations under FATCA, to determine that the Lender has complied with the Lender’s
obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. 
 3.02 Reserved. 

3.03 Reserved. 
 3.04
Increased Costs. 
 (a) Reserved. 

(b) Capital Requirements. If the Lender determines that any Change in Law affecting the Lender or any Lending Office of the Lender or
the Lender’s holding company, if any, regarding capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on the Lender’s capital or liquidity or on the capital or liquidity of the Lender’s holding company, if
any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitment of the Lender or the Loans made by the Lender, to a level below at which the Lender or the Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into
consideration the Lender’s policies and the policies of the Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the Loan Parties will pay to the Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate the
Lender or the Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered. 
 (c) Certificates for Reimbursement. A certificate of
the Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate the Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in subsection (b) of this Section and delivered to the Lead Borrower shall be conclusive absent manifest
error. The Loan Parties shall pay such the Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof. 

  
 31 

 (d) Delay in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of the Lender to demand compensation
pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section shall not constitute a waiver of the Lender’s right to demand such compensation, provided that the Loan Parties shall not be required to compensate the Lender pursuant to the foregoing
provisions of this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than 120 days prior to the date that the Lender notifies the Lead Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of the
Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 120 day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of
retroactive effect thereof).

obtain Loans, the proceeds of which shall be available to each Borrower for such uses as are permitted under this Agreement. As the disclosed principal for its agent, each Borrower shall be obligated to each Credit Party on account of Loans so made
as if made directly by the applicable Credit Party to such Borrower, notwithstanding the manner by which such Loans are recorded on the books and records of the Lead Borrower and of any other Borrower. In addition, each Loan Party other than the
Borrowers hereby irrevocably designates and appoints the Lead Borrower as such Loan Party’s agent to represent such Loan Party in all respects under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. 

(b) Each Borrower recognizes that credit available to it hereunder is in excess of and on better terms than it otherwise could obtain on and
for its own account and that one of the reasons therefor is its joining in the credit facility contemplated herein with all other Borrowers. Consequently, each Borrower hereby assumes and agrees to discharge all Obligations of each of the other
Borrowers. 
 (c) The Lead Borrower shall act as a conduit for each Borrower (including itself, as a “Borrower”) on whose behalf
the Lead Borrower has requested a Borrowing. Neither the Lender nor any other Credit Party shall have any obligation to see to the application of such proceeds therefrom.

stock, for the purpose of reducing or retiring any Indebtedness that was originally incurred to purchase or carry any margin stock or for any other purpose that might cause any of the Loans to be considered a “purpose credit” within the
meaning of Regulations T, U, or X issued by the FRB. 

  
 38

Loan Party has disclosed to the Lender all agreements, instruments and corporate or other restrictions to which it or any of its Subsidiaries is subject, and all other matters known to it, that, individually or in the aggregate, would reasonably be
expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. No report, financial statement (including, without limitation, any Approved Budget), certificate or other information furnished (whether in writing or orally) by or on behalf of any Loan Party to the
Lender in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and the negotiation of this Agreement or delivered hereunder or under any other Loan Document (in each case, as modified or supplemented by other information so furnished) contains any
material misstatement of fact or omits to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not materially misleading; provided that, with respect to projected
financial information and the Approved Budget, the Loan Parties represent only that such information was prepared in good faith based upon assumptions believed to be reasonable at the time. 

5.16 Compliance with Laws. Each of the Loan Parties is in compliance in all material respects with the requirements of
all Laws and all orders, writs, injunctions and decrees applicable to it or to its properties, except in such instances in which (a) such requirement of Law or order, writ, injunction or decree is being contested in good faith by appropriate
proceedings diligently conducted or (b) the failure to comply therewith, either individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or the enforcement of which is stayed by virtue of the filing
of the Chapter 11 Case, or (c) the failure to comply therewith is as a result of a Bankruptcy Event. 
 5.17 Intellectual Property;
Licenses. The Loan Parties own, or possess the right to use, all of the Intellectual Property that is material to the operation of their respective businesses as currently conducted (“Company IP”), and to the knowledge of the Loan
Parties, the use of the Company IP in connection with their respective businesses as currently conducted does not infringe the valid Intellectual Property rights of any other Person. To the knowledge of the Lead Borrower, no claim or litigation
regarding any of the Company IP is pending or threatened in writing, which, either individually or in the aggregate, would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or which claim or litigation would not be stayed by virtue of the
filing of the Chapter 11 Case. 
 5.18 Labor Matters. There are no strikes, lockouts or slowdowns against any Loan Party pending or,

applicable federal, state, or local law dealing with such matters to the extent that any such violation would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. All payments due from any Loan Party, or for which any claim may be made against
any Loan Party, on account of wages and employee health and welfare insurance and other benefits, have been paid or accrued as a liability on the books of such member. The consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents will not
give rise to any right of termination or right of renegotiation on the part of any union under any collective bargaining agreement to which any Loan Party is bound. 

5.19 Security Documents. Upon entry of the DIP Order(s), the Security Documents (including, without limitation, the DIP Order(s)), will
create in favor of the Lender, for the benefit of the Credit Parties, a legal, valid, continuing and enforceable perfected first priority security interest and liens in the Collateral, subject to the Professional Fee Carve Out, the enforceability of
which is subject to the 

  
 39 

 
DIP Order(s) and subject to general principles of equity, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law. The financing statements, releases and other filings are in
appropriate form and have been or will be filed in the offices specified in Schedule I of the Security Agreement.

cancellation of, or any material adverse modification or change in the business relationship of any Loan Party with any supplier material to its operations, except as a result of the Bankruptcy Events or the Permitted Store Closings. 

5.24 Casualty. Neither the businesses nor the properties of any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries are affected by any fire,
explosion, accident, strike, lockout or other labor dispute, drought, storm, hail, earthquake, embargo, act of God or of the public enemy or other casualty (whether or not covered by insurance) that, either individually or in the aggregate, would
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Bankruptcy Court approval, engage a replacement Independent Consultant reasonably acceptable to the Lender within ten (10) Business Days. 

(b) The Lead Borrower authorizes the Lender to communicate directly with its independent certified public accountants,

(3) the Borrowers and their Subsidiaries may expend any unused amounts contained in a line item for a given week (without giving effect to the 120% variance set forth in (1), above) for the same line item in any of the four successive weekly
periods; (4) payments to the Lender shall not be subject to the limitations set forth above and shall not be included in determining compliance with the covenants set forth in this Section 6.19; and (5) the actual aggregate
disbursements made for any Cumulative Four Week Period shall not exceed 110% of those projected in the Approved Budget for such Cumulative Four Week Period; 

(b) the Borrower and its Subsidiaries shall not make any payment that, at the time made, based on the going-forward cash-flow

of Default, the Lender may require, and upon request by the Lender the Borrowers shall, undertake to Liquidate the Collateral on behalf of the Lender in such manner as the Lender may require. Such Liquidation may be effected through a partial or
chain-wide store closing sale in a manner consistent with the foregoing enumeration of the Lender’s rights and remedies, and as otherwise permitted by the Bankruptcy Court. The Lender and the Borrowers shall endeavor to implement such a
Liquidation on mutually acceptable terms and conditions. However, the Lender may by written notice to the Lead Borrower require the Borrowers to: 

(d) File a motion seeking to retain one or more nationally recognized professional retail inventory liquidation agents
reasonably acceptable to the Lender to sell, lease, or otherwise dispose of the Collateral on terms acceptable to the Lender. 

(e) File a motion or motions seeking to sell or otherwise dispose of any or all of the Real Estate pursuant to Section 363
of the Bankruptcy Code, on terms acceptable to the Lender. 
 (f) File a motion or motions seeking to sell, assume, assign,
or otherwise dispose of any or all of the Leases pursuant to Sections 363 and 365 of the Bankruptcy Code, on terms acceptable to the Lender. 

  
 56 

 The Borrowers shall file such motion(s) within five (5) Business Days of the Lender’s
request and shall diligently prosecute such motion(s). If the Borrowers fail to so file or diligently prosecute the motion(s), the Lender may file and prosecute such motion(s) in the name of the Borrowers. 

No remedy herein is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy and each and every remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to
every other remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or any other provision of Law. 
 8.03
Application of Funds. After the exercise of remedies provided for in Section 8.02, any amounts received on account of the Obligations shall be applied by the Lender in the following order: 

First, to payment of accrued and unpaid Professional Fees and Expenses up to an aggregate amount not to exceed the
Professional Fee Carve Out; 
 Second, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting fees, indemnities,
Credit Party Expenses and other amounts (including fees, charges and disbursements of counsel to the Lender and amounts payable under Article III) payable to the Lender; 

Third, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting accrued and unpaid interest on the Loans and other
Obligations, and fees, ratably between the Lender in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause Third payable to them; 

Fourth, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting unpaid principal of the Loans, ratably between the
Lender in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause Fourth held by them; 
 Fifth, to
payment of all other Obligations (including without limitation the cash collateralization of unliquidated indemnification obligations as provided in Section 9.04(b)), ratably among the Credit Parties in proportion to the respective
amounts described in this clause Fifth held by them; 
 Sixth, to be retained by the Lender as a reserve
account for all indemnification obligations hereunder; and 
 Last, the balance, if any, after Satisfaction of the
Obligations, to the Loan Parties or as otherwise required by Law.

declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by such Credit Party in its reasonable discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with the
Chapter 11 Case or any successor case or otherwise, then to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made
or such setoff had not occurred. 
 9.06 Successors and Assigns. 

(a) Successors and Assigns Generally. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties
hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that no Loan Party may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document without the prior written consent of the

under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans with the prior consent of the Lead Borrower, such consent not be unreasonably withheld or delayed (provided that no such consent will be required after the occurrence
and continuation of an Event of Default). From and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and
Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement
(and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections
3.01, 3.04, and 9.04 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment. Upon request, the Borrowers (at their expense) shall execute and deliver a Note to the assignee Lender. 

  
 60 

 (c) Participations. The Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the
Loan Parties, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person or the Loan Parties or any of the Loan Parties’ Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of the Lender’s rights
and/or obligations under this Agreement owing to it); provided that (i) the Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) the Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the
performance of such obligations and (iii) the Loan Parties, the Lender shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any Participant shall agree in
writing to comply with all confidentiality obligations set forth in Section 9.07 as if such Participant was the Lender hereunder. The Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.04, and 3.01

to receive any greater payment under Sections 3.04 or 3.01, with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a
Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.08 as though it were a Lender. If the Lender
sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrowers, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each
Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that the Lender shall not have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant
Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that
such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall
be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. 

(d) Certain Pledges. The Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this
Agreement (including under its Note, if any) to secure obligations of the Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release the Lender from any
of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for the Lender as a party hereto. 
 (e) Electronic Execution of
Assignments. The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in any Assignment and Assumption shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form,
each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any Law, including the Federal
Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act. 

9.07 Treatment of Certain Information; Confidentiality. Each of the Credit Parties agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the
Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates, Approved Funds, and to its and its Affiliates’ and Approved Funds’ 

  
 61 

 
respective partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, funding sources, attorneys, advisors and representatives (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be
informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over it (including any self-regulatory
authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners), (c) to the extent required by Laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party hereto, (e) in connection with the exercise
of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions
substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any actual or prospective
counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to any Loan Party and its obligations, (g) with the consent of the Lead Borrower or (h) to the extent such Information (x) becomes publicly available other
than as a result of a breach of this Section or (y) becomes available to any Credit Party or any of their respective Affiliates on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the Loan Parties. 

For purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from the Loan Parties or any Subsidiary thereof relating
to the Loan Parties or any Subsidiary thereof or their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to any Credit Party on a non-confidential basis prior to disclosure by the Loan Parties or any Subsidiary thereof,
provided that, in the case of information received from any Loan Party or any Subsidiary after the date hereof, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of
Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own
confidential information. 
 Each of the Credit Parties acknowledges that (a) the Information may include material non-public
information concerning the Loan Parties or a Subsidiary, as the case may be, (b) it has developed compliance procedures regarding the use of material non-public information and (c) it will handle such material non-public information in
accordance with Law, including federal and state securities Laws. 
 9.08 Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing or if the Lender shall have been served with a trustee process or similar attachment relating to property of a Loan Party, the Lender and each of its Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to
the fullest extent permitted by Law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) or other property at any time held and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any
time owing by the Lender or any such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of the Borrowers or any other Loan Party against any and all of the Obligations now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to the
Lender, regardless of the adequacy of the Collateral, and irrespective of whether or not the Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such obligations of the Borrowers or such Loan Party may be
contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch or office of the Lender different from the branch or office holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness. The rights of the Lender and its Affiliates under this Section are in addition to
other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that the Lender or its Affiliates may have. The Lender agrees to notify the Lead Borrower promptly after any such setoff and application, provided that the failure to give such
notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application. 

  
 62 

 9.09 Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
in any Loan Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by Law (the “Maximum Rate”). If the Lender shall receive interest in an
amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Loans or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to the Borrowers. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received by
the Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by Law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects
thereof, and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations hereunder. 

9.10 Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts (and by different
parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents constitute the entire contract among the
parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. Except as provided in Section 4.01, this Agreement shall become
effective when it shall have been executed by the Lender and when the Lender shall have received counterparts hereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto. This Agreement and all other documents
(including, without limitation, the Loan Documents) which have been or may be hereinafter furnished by the Loan Parties to any of the Credit Parties may be reproduced by the Credit Parties by any photographic, microfilm, xerographic, digital
imaging, or other process. Any such reproduction shall be admissible in evidence as the original itself in any judicial or administrative proceeding (whether or not the original is in existence and whether or not such reproduction was made in the
regular course of business). Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy, pdf or other electronic transmission shall be as effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement. 

9.11 Survival. All representations and warranties made hereunder and in any other Loan Document or other document delivered
pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection herewith or therewith shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and thereof. Such representations and warranties have been or will be relied upon by the Credit Parties, regardless of any
investigation made by any Credit Party or on their behalf and notwithstanding that any Credit Party may have had notice or knowledge of any Default at the time of any Borrowing, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as any Loan or any
other Obligation hereunder shall remain unpaid or unsatisfied. Further, the provisions of Sections 3.01, 3.04 and 9.04 shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the repayment of the Obligations, and the
Commitment or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof. In connection with the termination of this Agreement and the release and termination of the security interests in the Collateral, the Lender may require such indemnities and
collateral security as it shall reasonably deem necessary or appropriate to protect the Credit Parties against (x) loss on account of credits previously applied to the Obligations that may subsequently be reversed or revoked, and (y) any
Obligations that may thereafter arise under Section 9.04 hereof. 
 9.12 Severability. If any provision of this
Agreement or the other Loan Documents is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, (a) the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not be affected or impaired
thereby and (b) the parties shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the illegal, invalid or
unenforceable provisions. The invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

9.17 Foreign Asset Control Regulations. Neither of the advance of the Loans nor the use of the proceeds of any thereof will
violate the Trading With the Enemy Act (50 U.S.C. § 1 et seq., as amended) (the “Trading With the Enemy Act”) or any of the foreign assets control regulations of the United States Treasury Department (31 CFR, Subtitle B,
Chapter V, as amended) (the “Foreign Assets Control Regulations”) or any enabling legislation or executive order relating thereto (which for the avoidance of doubt shall include, but shall not be limited to (a) Executive Order
13224 of September 21, 2001 Blocking Property and Prohibiting Transactions With Persons Who Commit, Threaten to Commit, or Support Terrorism (66 Fed. Reg. 49079 (2001)) (the “Executive Order”) and (b) the Patriot Act.
Furthermore, none of the Borrowers or their Affiliates (a) is or will become a “blocked person” as described in the Executive Order, the Trading With the Enemy Act or the Foreign Assets Control Regulations or (b) engages or will
engage in any dealings or transactions, or be otherwise associated, with any such “blocked person” or in any manner violative of any such order. 

9.18 Time of the Essence. Time is of the essence of the Loan Documents. 

9.19 Press Releases. Each Loan Party consents to the publication by the Lender of advertising material relating to the financing
transactions contemplated by this Agreement using any Loan Party’s name, product photographs, logo or trademark. The Lender shall provide a draft reasonably in advance of any advertising material to the Lead Borrower for review and comment
prior to the publication thereof. The Lender reserves the right to provide to industry trade organizations information necessary and customary for inclusion in league table measurements. 

9.20 Additional Waivers. 

(a) The Obligations are the joint and several obligation of each Loan Party. To the fullest extent permitted by Law, the obligations of each
Loan Party shall not be affected by (i) the failure of any Credit Party to assert any claim or demand or to enforce or exercise any right or remedy against any other Loan Party under the provisions of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or
otherwise, (ii) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of, or any release from any of the terms or provisions of, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or (iii) the failure to perfect any security interest in, or the
release of, any of the Collateral or other security held by or on behalf of the Lender or any other Credit Party. 
 (b) The Obligations of
each Loan Party shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason (other than the indefeasible payment in full in cash of the Obligations after the termination of the Commitment hereunder), including any
claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise of any of the Obligations, and shall not be subject to any defense or setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever by reason of the invalidity, illegality or
unenforceability of any of the Obligations or otherwise. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the obligations of each Loan Party hereunder shall not be discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by the failure of the Lender or any
other Credit Party to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any remedy under this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, by any waiver or modification of any provision of any thereof, any default, failure or delay, willful or
otherwise, in the performance of any of the Obligations, or by any other act or omission that may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of any Loan Party or that would otherwise operate as a discharge of any Loan Party as a matter of
law or equity (other than the indefeasible payment in full in cash of all the Obligations after the termination of the Commitment hereunder). 

  
 66 

 (c) To the fullest extent permitted by Law, each Loan Party waives any defense based on or
arising out of any defense of any other Loan Party or the unenforceability of the Obligations or any part thereof from any cause, or the cessation from any cause of the liability of any other Loan Party, other than the indefeasible payment in full
in cash of all the Obligations and the termination of the Commitment hereunder. The Lender may, at its election, foreclose on any security held by it by one or more judicial or non-judicial sales, accept an assignment of any such security in lieu of
foreclosure, compromise or adjust any part of the Obligations, make any other accommodation with any other Loan Party, or exercise any other right or remedy available to it against any other Loan Party, without affecting or impairing in any way the
liability of any Loan Party hereunder (except if such results in Satisfaction of the Obligations) and the Commitment hereunder has been terminated. Each Loan Party waives any defense arising out of any such election even though such election
operates, pursuant to Law, to impair or to extinguish any right of reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of such Loan Party against any other Loan Party, as the case may be, or any security. 

(d) Each Loan Party is obligated to repay the Obligations as joint and several obligors under this Agreement. Upon payment by any Loan Party
of any Obligations, all rights of such Loan Party against any other Loan Party arising as a result thereof by way of right of subrogation, contribution, reimbursement, indemnity or otherwise shall in all respects be subordinate and junior in right
of payment to the prior indefeasible payment in full in cash of all the Obligations and the termination of the Commitment hereunder. In addition, any indebtedness of any Loan Party now or hereafter held by any other Loan Party is hereby subordinated
in right of payment to the prior indefeasible payment in full of the Obligations and no Loan Party will demand, sue for or otherwise attempt to collect any such indebtedness. If any amount shall erroneously be paid to any Loan Party on account of
(i) such subrogation, contribution, reimbursement, indemnity or similar right or (ii) any such indebtedness of any Loan Party, such amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Credit Parties and shall forthwith be paid to the
Lender to be credited against the payment of the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Subject to the foregoing, to the extent that any Loan Party shall, under this
Agreement as a joint and several obligor, repay any of the Obligations constituting Loans made to another Borrower hereunder or other Obligations incurred directly and primarily by any other Borrower, then the Loan Party making such payment shall be
entitled to contribution and indemnification from, and be reimbursed by, each of the other Borrowers. 
 9.21 No Strict
Construction. 
 The parties hereto have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. In the event an
ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties hereto and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship
of any provisions of this Agreement. 
 9.22 Attachments. 

The exhibits, schedules and annexes attached to this Agreement are incorporated herein and shall be considered a part of this Agreement for the
purposes stated herein, except that in the event of any conflict between any of the provisions of such exhibits and the provisions of this Agreement, the provisions of this Agreement shall prevail.

9.24 Relationship with DIP Order(s). 

In the event of any inconsistency between the terms of the DIP Order(s) and the Loan Documents, the terms of the DIP Order(s) shall control and
the representations, warranties, covenants, agreements or events of default made herein and in the other Loan Documents shall be subject to any express, contrary terms of the DIP Order(s). 

ARTICLE X 
 GUARANTEE

 10.01 The Facility Guaranty. 

Each Guarantor irrevocably and unconditionally guaranties, jointly with the other Guarantors and severally, as a primary obligor and not merely
as a surety, the due and punctual payment when due (whether at the stated maturity, by required prepayment, by acceleration or otherwise) and performance by the Borrowers of all Obligations (collectively, the “Guaranteed
Obligations”), including all such Guaranteed Obligations which shall become due but for the operation of any Debtor Relief Law. Each Guarantor further agrees that the Guaranteed Obligations may be extended or renewed, in whole or in part,
without notice to or further assent from it, and that it will remain bound upon this Facility Guaranty notwithstanding any extension or renewal of any Guaranteed Obligation. 

10.02 Guaranteed Obligations Not Affected. 

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, each Guarantor waives presentment to, demand of payment from, and protest to, any Loan Party
of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, and also waives notice of acceptance of this Facility Guaranty, notice of protest for nonpayment and all other notices of any kind. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, the obligations of each
Guarantor hereunder shall not be affected by (a) the failure of any Credit Party to assert any claim or demand or to enforce or exercise any right or remedy against any Loan Party under the provisions of this Agreement, any other Loan Document
or otherwise or against any other party with respect to any of the Guaranteed Obligations, (b) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of, or any release from, any of the terms or provisions of this Facility Guaranty, any other Loan
Document or any other agreement, with respect to any Loan Party or with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations, (c) the failure to perfect any security interest in, or the release of, any of the Collateral held by or on behalf of any Credit
Party, or (d) the lack of legal existence of any Loan Party or legal obligation to discharge any of the Guaranteed Obligations by any Loan Party for any reason whatsoever, including, without limitation, in connection with any Debtor Relief
Laws. 
 10.03 Security. 

Each Guarantor hereby acknowledges and agrees that each of Credit Parties may (a) take and hold security for the payment of this Facility
Guaranty and the Guaranteed Obligations and exchange, enforce, waive and release any such security, (b) apply such security and direct the order or manner of sale thereof as they in their sole discretion may determine, and (c) release or
substitute any one or more endorsees, the Borrowers, other Loan Parties or other obligors, in each case without affecting or impairing in any way the liability of any Guarantor hereunder. 

  
 68 

 10.04 Guarantee of Payment. 

Each Guarantor further agrees that this Facility Guaranty constitutes a guarantee of payment and performance when due of all Guaranteed
Obligations and not of collection and, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, waives any right to require that any resort be had by any Credit Party to any of the Collateral or other security held for payment of the Guaranteed
Obligations or to any balance of any deposit account or credit on the books of any Credit Party in favor of any Loan Party or any other Person or to any other guarantor of all or part of the Guaranteed Obligations. Any payment required to be made by
any Guarantor hereunder may be required by any Credit Party on any number of occasions and shall be payable to the Lender, for the benefit of any Credit Party, in the manner provided in this Agreement. 

10.05 No Discharge or Diminishment of Guarantee. 

The obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason (other
than the indefeasible payment in full in cash of the Guaranteed Obligations), including any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, and shall not be subject to any defense or set-off,
counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations or otherwise. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Guaranteed Obligations of each Guarantor
hereunder shall not be discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by the failure of any Credit Party to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any remedy under this Facility Guaranty, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other
agreement, by any waiver or modification of any provision of any thereof, by any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, or by any other act or omission that may or might in any
manner or to any extent vary the risk of any Guarantor or that would otherwise operate as a discharge of any Guarantor as a matter of law or equity (other than the indefeasible payment in full in cash of the Guaranteed Obligations). 

10.06 Defenses of Loan Parties Waived. 

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, each Guarantor waives any defense based on or arising out of any defense of any Loan Party
or the unenforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof from any cause, or the cessation from any cause of the liability of any Loan Party, other than the indefeasible payment in full in cash of the Guaranteed Obligations. Each
Guarantor hereby acknowledges that the Credit Parties may, at their election, foreclose on any security held by one or more of them by one or more judicial or nonjudicial sales, accept an assignment of any such security in lieu of foreclosure,
compromise or adjust any part of the Guaranteed Obligations, make any other accommodation with any Loan Party, or exercise any other right or remedy available to them against any Loan Party, without affecting or impairing in any way the liability of
each such Guarantor hereunder (except if such results in Satisfaction of the Obligations). Pursuant to, and to the extent permitted by, applicable Law, each Guarantor waives any defense arising out of any such election and waives any benefit of and
right to participate in any such foreclosure action, even though such election operates, pursuant to applicable Law, to impair or to extinguish any right of reimbursement, indemnity, contribution or subrogation or other right or remedy of such
Guarantor against any Loan Party, as the case may be, or any security. Each Guarantor agrees that it shall not assert any claim in competition with any Credit Party in respect of any payment made hereunder in connection with any proceedings under
any Debtor Relief Laws. 

  
 69 

 10.07 Agreement to Pay; Subordination. 

In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right that any Credit Party has at law or in equity against any Guarantor by
virtue hereof, upon the failure of any Loan Party to pay any Guaranteed Obligation when and as the same shall become due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, after notice of prepayment or otherwise, each Guarantor hereby promises to and will
forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, to any Credit Party as designated thereby in cash the amount of such unpaid Guaranteed Obligations. Upon payment by any Guarantor of any sums to any Agent or any other Credit Party as provided above, all rights of
such Guarantor against any other Loan Party arising as a result thereof by way of right of subrogation, contribution, reimbursement, indemnity or otherwise shall in all respects be subordinate and junior in right of payment to the prior indefeasible
payment in full in cash of all the Guaranteed Obligations. In addition, any indebtedness of any Borrower or any other Loan Party now or hereafter held by any Guarantor is hereby subordinated in right of payment to the prior payment in full of all of
the Guaranteed Obligations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default, any Borrower or any other Loan Party may make payments to any Guarantor on account of any such indebtedness. After the occurrence and during
the continuance of an Event of Default, no Guarantor will demand, sue for, or otherwise attempt to collect any such indebtedness until Satisfaction of the Obligations. If any amount shall erroneously be paid to any Guarantor on account of
(a) such subrogation, contribution, reimbursement, indemnity or similar right or (b) any such indebtedness of any Loan Party, such amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Credit Parties and shall forthwith be paid to the
Credit Party to be credited against the payment of the Guaranteed Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. 

10.08 Limitation on Guarantee of Guaranteed Obligations. 

In any action or proceeding with respect to any Guarantor involving any state corporate law, the Bankruptcy Code of the United States or any
other Debtor Relief Law, if the obligations of such Guarantor under Section 10.01 hereof would otherwise be held or determined to be void, invalid or unenforceable, or subordinated to the claims of any other creditors, on account of the amount
of its liability under said Section 10.01, then, notwithstanding any other provision hereof to the contrary, the amount of such liability shall, without any further action by such Guarantor, any Credit Party, or any other Person, be
automatically limited and reduced to the highest amount which is valid and enforceable and not subordinated to the claims of other creditors as determined in such action or proceeding.
