C.    Lenders are the holders of the Warrants (as defined in the Loan Agreement); and

D.    The parties hereto wish to amend the Loan Agreement and other Loan Documents and to waive certain rights under the Warrants;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements set forth herein, and for other valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:

-1-

1.    Definitions and Rules of Construction. As used in this Amendment, capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Loan Agreement, and the rules of construction applicable to the Loan Agreement shall apply to this Amendment.

2.    Joinder of Fairway. Fairway hereby joins in (i) the Loan Agreement as a "Borrower," (ii) the Term Loan Notes as a "Maker," (iii) that Security Agreement dated as of August 21, 2013, by and among Existing Borrowers and Collateral Agent (the "Security Agreement") as a "Debtor," and all such documents are hereby amended to include Fairway as a party thereto. Fairway further (i) agrees to make all of the representations and warranties set forth in the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which it is joined as of the date hereof; (ii) grants to Collateral Agent, for the benefit of Lenders, pursuant to the terms and provisions of the Loan Agreement and the Security Agreement, a valid and enforceable security interest in and to all of its assets constituting Collateral (as defined in the Security Agreement), free and clear of all Encumbrances except as otherwise provided in the Loan Agreement; and (iii) agrees that it hereby assumes, and is a direct obligor primarily liable for, all of the Obligations, whether now or hereafter arising. Without limiting the foregoing, Fairway agrees that it shall be jointly and severally liable with Existing Borrowers and any other Borrower for all liabilities and obligations of each such Borrower to Collateral Agent and Lenders irrespective of when such liabilities or obligations first arose under the Loan Agreement or the other Loan Documents. In furtherance of the foregoing, Fairway agrees to execute and/or deliver to Collateral Agent such additional loan documents, security instruments, UCC financing statements, and other documents, instruments, certificates or agreements as Collateral Agent may reasonably request to give effect to this joinder of Fairway.

3.    Fairway Acquisition.

(a)    Subject to the condition set forth below in this paragraph,  the Collateral Agent and Lenders consent to the acquisition of all of the outstanding common stock of Fairway by i3 (the  "Fairway Acquisition") pursuant  to that  certain Membership  Interest Purchase  and Contribution Agreement  (the "Fairway Acquisition Agreement")  dated as of the date hereof, by and among i3, FPI Holdings, Inc., and Craig Shapero.  Borrowers represent, warrant,  and agree that (i) the Fairway Acquisition  qualifies as and constitutes a Permitted  Acquisition  (excluding the  size  of  the  purchase  consideration  thereof),  and  all  of  the  conditions  set  forth  in  the definition  of Permitted  Acquisition (excluding  the size of the purchase  consideration  thereof) have been or will be satisfied within the time periods  specified therein  (or within such shorter time periods as Lenders have permitted), (ii) there is no contingent  consideration payable under the Fairway Acquisition Agreement, and (iii) no Borrower is issuing a Seller Note in connection with such acquisition.

(b)    i3 represents  and  warrants  that  the  Fairway  Acquisition  has  closed  in accordance with the terms of the Fairway Acquisition Agreement. The consent of the Collateral Agent and Lenders  is conditioned  on i3's  completion  of an equity offering  in an amount of at least  $13,000,000.00.  The  cash proceeds  of  such  equity  offering,  in  a minimum  amount  of  $11,500,000.00,  shall be applied to reduce outstanding principal  amounts under the "Revolving Loans"  under  the  Senior  Loan  Agreement.   Borrowers   represent,   warrant,   and  agree  that $500,000.00  of the proceeds  of such equity offering result from the conversion  of an existing note  owed  to  Greg  Daily  in  the  amount  of  $500,000.00   to  equity  in  i3.  An  additional $1,000,000.00 of cash proceeds of such equity offering shall be made available to Borrowers on or before  August  31,  2017.  Borrowers  shall  provide  evidence  satisfactory  to  the  Collateral Agent on or before August 31, 2017 of the receipt of such $1,000,000.00 of additional  equity. Failure of Borrowers to provide such evidence on or before August 31, 2017, shall constitute an Event of Default.

(c)    Borrowers  represent  and  warrant  that  all documentation  relating  to the equity offering described in the preceding paragraph has been provided to the Collateral Agent. Borrowers  also  represent  and  warrant  that  the  execution,  delivery,  and  performance  of the Fairway Acquisition Agreement  does not violate or interfere  with the rights of any Person  or entity.

4.    Amendments to Loan Documents.

(a)    Expert Auto Repair Add Back. Borrowers, Collateral Agent, and Lenders agree that, for the Fiscal Quarter, if any, in which the Expert Auto Repair Amount (as defined below) is recognized by Borrowers in 

-2-

their relevant financial statements, the Expert Auto Repair Amount shall be added back to all calculations of EBITDA. For purposes of this Section, the "Expert Auto Repair Amount" is defined as the amount, which shall not exceed $1,000,000.00, which is utilized by Borrowers in connection with the settlement of that certain class action lawsuit styled "Expert Auto Repair, Inc. et al. vs. Merchant Processing Solutions, LLC, et al." The add back for calculating EBITD A described in this Section shall be applicable only for the quarter in which the Expert Auto Repair Amount is recognized in Borrowers' financial statements.

(b)    Landlord Waiver. Collateral Agent and Lenders acknowledge that, as part of the Fairway Acquisition, Borrowers have assumed that certain Office Lease Agreement dated January 19, 2011 (the "Lease") between Fairway and Damar Properties, LLC for the premises located at 300 N. Lee Street, Suite 500, Alexandria, VA, 22314 (the "Lee Premises"), which Lease contains the grant of a security interest which is not a Permitted Encumbrance. Collateral Agent and Lenders hereby consent to such security interest and waives any Defaults or Events of Default that exist or may arise on account of the granting or existence of such security interest. Borrowers obtained a landlord waiver from the landlord of the Lee Premises, but such waiver in not in form acceptable to Collateral Agent and Lenders in all respects. Borrowers' failure to obtain an acceptable landlord waiver shall not constitute a Default or Event of Default under the Credit Agreement; provided, however, that until Borrowers obtain a landlord waiver acceptable to Collateral Agent and Lenders in all respects, in their reasonable discretion, Borrowers covenant and agree that the value of all assets of Borrowers located on the Lee Premises shall not at any time exceed $50,000.00.

(c)    Sage Consent. Borrowers covenant and agree to use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain a consent to Collateral Agent's security interest under the Loan Documents from Sage Payment Solutions, Inc. within sixty (60) days of the date hereof (or such longer period as may be agreed to by Collateral Agent in its reasonable discretion), reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Collateral Agent, with respect to that certain Amended and Restated Merchant Referral and Services Agreement, dated as of April 1, 2016, by and between Sage Payment Solutions, Inc. and Fairway.

(d)    Merger Consent. Borrowers have informed Collateral Agent and Lenders that i3 intends to cause Fairway to consolidate, rollup, and merge with or into a newly-created wholly-owned subsidiary named "i3-Fairway, LLC" (or a similar name) formed under the laws of the State of Delaware within sixty (60) days (or such longer period as may be agreed to by Collateral Agent in its reasonable discretion) after the date hereof (the "Merger") which if done without the consent of the Lenders would be a violation of Sections 7.8 and 7.11 of the Loan Agreement. At the request of and as an accommodation to Borrowers, Collateral Agent and Lenders hereby consent to the consummation of the Merger and agree that the consummation of the Merger shall not constitute a Default or Event of Default under the Loan Agreement, subject to satisfaction of the following conditions: (i) the Merger occurs on or before sixty (60) days (or such longer period as may be agreed to by Collateral Agent in its reasonable discretion) from the date hereof, (ii) i3-Fairway, LLC assumes all liabilities of Fairway as part of the Merger, and (iii) i3-Fairway, LLC is joined as a Borrower to the Loan Documents concurrently with the consummation of the Merger.

(e)    Equity Pledge. Borrowers have informed Collateral Agent and Lenders that, in connection with the Fairway Acquisition, i3 intends to issue additional equity interest in i3 that may be required to be pledged to Collateral Agent pursuant to Loan Agreement. Borrowers covenant and agree to deliver to Collateral Agent within ten (10) Business Days of the date hereof (or such longer period as may be agreed to by Collateral Agent in its reasonable discretion) an amendment to that LLC Interests Security Agreement dated as of August 14, 2013, executed by certain members of i3 in favor of Collateral Agent (the "Pledge Agreement"), such amendment to be in form acceptable to Collateral Agent, in its reasonable discretion, and executed by all Persons required under Section 6.4(c) of the Loan Agreement to pledge their equity interests in i3.

5.    Waiver of Certain Matters Regarding Issuance of Equity. Lenders agree that i3 may issue up to 500,000 Common Units of i3 pursuant to the Fairway Acquisition Agreement without making any adjustment to the Warrants pursuant to Section 8 thereof.

6.    Updating of Schedules. Borrowers hereby reaffirm the warranties and representations made in Article 5 of the Loan Agreement as true and correct given as of the date hereof, subject to (i) matters therein that were expressly 

-3-

disclosed as of a particular date other than the Closing Date, and (ii) the matters disclosed in the updated complete set of Schedules to the Loan Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit A.

7.    Borrowers' Release. Borrowers hereby release Lenders and Collateral Agent from any claim, defense, or right of setoff, known or unknown, that any Borrower may have against any of them as of the execution of this Amendment; provided, however, to avoid doubt, Lenders and Collateral Agent are not released from their future obligations under the Loan Documents.

8.    Borrowers' Affirmations. Borrowers acknowledge, warrant, and represent that (i) pursuant to the Loan Documents, their obligations to repay the Obligations are absolute and unconditional, and there exists no right of deduction, setoff, recoupment, counterclaim or defense of any nature whatsoever to payment of the Obligations, (ii) the Loan Documents are valid and enforceable against Borrowers in accordance with their terms (subject to principles of equity and laws applicable to the rights of creditors generally, including bankruptcy laws) and grant valid and perfected security interests and liens in the collateral described therein with the priority required by the Loan Documents, and (iii) no Default or Event of Default presently exists under the Loan Documents.

9.    Expenses. Borrowers agree to pay any and all costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and recording fees) incurred by Collateral Agent and Lenders and arising out of or relating to the preparation and negotiation of this Amendment and the matters contemplated hereby.

10.    Construction of Agreement. Except as expressly provided herein, the Loan Documents remain in full force and effect in accordance with their respective terms, and this Amendment shall not be construed to (i) impair the validity, perfection, or priority of any security interest granted therein, or (ii) waive or impair any rights, powers, or remedies of Lenders or Collateral Agent under the Loan Documents.

11.    Assignment. This Amendment shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the respective heirs, successors and assigns of Borrowers, Collateral Agent, and Lenders, except that Borrowers may not assign any rights or delegate any obligations arising hereunder without the prior written consent of Lenders. Any attempted assignment or delegation without the required prior consent shall be void.

12.    Entire Agreement. This Amendment and the other written agreements among the parties represent the entire agreement of the parties concerning the subject matter hereof, and all oral discussions and prior inconsistent agreements are merged herein. In the event of an inconsistency between this Amendment and the provisions of the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Amendment shall control.

13.    Notices. Any communications concerning this Agreement or the Obligations shall be addressed as provided in the Loan Documents, except that the address for notices to CCSD I and CCSD II shall be revised as follows:
