as applicable, in an amount equal to such Casualty Proceeds (to the extent not reinvested or intended to be reinvested within such time period);

last day of each calendar quarter. 
 (d) Borrower shall unconditionally pay to Lender a late charge equal to five percent (5%) of any
and all payments of principal or interest on the Loans that are not paid within fifteen (15) days of the due date. Such late charge shall be due and payable regardless of whether Lender has accelerated the Obligations, or the Obligations
automatically shall become due and payable. Borrower agrees that any late fee payable to Lender is a reasonable estimate of Lender’s damages and is not a penalty.

financing of an amount not to exceed 90%, with respect to Financed Guaranteed Loans, and (b) Advances—Non-Guaranteed Loans shall be used solely to provide Borrower with short-term financing of an amount not to exceed 55% of the SBA 7(a)

(a) If Lender shall have determined that the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law regarding capital adequacy or in the
interpretation or application thereof or compliance by Lender or any corporation controlling Lender with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority made subsequent to
the date hereof shall have the effect of reducing the rate of return on Lender’s or such corporation’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder to a level below that which Lender or such corporation could have achieved but for
such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration Lender’s or such corporation’s policies with respect to capital adequacy as in effect as of the date of this Agreement) by an amount deemed by Lender to be material, then from
time to time, after submission by Lender to Borrower of a written request therefor, Borrower shall pay to Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate Lender or such corporation for such reduction; provided, that Borrower shall
not be required to compensate Lender pursuant to this paragraph for any amounts incurred more than six months prior to the date that Lender notifies Borrower of Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor; and provided,
further that, if the circumstances giving rise to such claim have a retroactive effect, then such six-month period shall be extended to include the period of such retroactive effect. 

(b) A certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section submitted by Lender to Borrower shall be conclusive in the
absence of manifest error. The obligations of Borrower pursuant to this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder. 

 (c) Failure or delay on the part of Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this
Section 2.9 shall not constitute a waiver of Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided, that Borrower shall not be under any obligation to compensate Lender under clause (a) of this Section 2.9 for increased
costs or reductions with respect to any period prior to the date that is 180 days prior to such request if Lender knew or could reasonably have been expected to know of the circumstances giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of the
fact that such circumstances would result in a claim for increased compensation by reason of such increased costs or reductions; provided, further, that the foregoing limitation shall not apply to any increased costs or reductions arising out
of the retroactive application of any change in Law within such 180-day period. The protection of this Section 2.9 shall be available to Lender regardless of any possible contention of the invalidity or inapplicability of the change in any
Requirement of Law that shall have occurred or been imposed. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, and all requests, rules, guidelines and directives promulgated thereunder,
all requests, rules, guidelines or directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States regulatory authorities, in each case
pursuant to Basel III, are in each case deemed to have been introduced or adopted after the date hereof, regardless of the date enacted, adopted, issued or implemented for all purposes under or in connection with this Agreement (including this
Section 2.9) and any taxes imposed thereby (other than taxes described in Section 2.10) shall be deemed to be the adoption of or a change in a Requirement of Law regarding capital adequacy. 

2.10 Taxes. 
 (a) All
payments made by Borrower under this Agreement shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any present or future income, stamp or other taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions or
withholdings, now or hereafter imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any Governmental Authority, excluding net income taxes and franchise taxes (imposed in lieu of net income taxes) imposed on Lender as a result of a present or former
connection between Lender and the jurisdiction of the Governmental Authority imposing such tax or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein (other than any such connection arising solely from Lender’s having executed,
delivered or performed its obligations or received a payment under, or enforced, this Agreement or any other Loan Document). If any such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions or withholdings (“Non-Excluded
Taxes”) or any Other Taxes are required to be withheld from any amounts payable to Lender hereunder, the amounts so payable to Lender shall be increased to the extent necessary to yield to Lender (after payment of all Non-Excluded Taxes and
Other Taxes) interest or any such other amounts payable hereunder at the rates or in the amounts specified in this Agreement; provided, however, that Borrower shall not be required to increase any such amounts payable to Lender with
respect to any Non-Excluded Taxes (i) that are attributable to Lender’s failure to deliver the forms required by paragraph (d) of this Section, 

 
unless such failure is solely a result of a change in Law occurring after the date hereof or (ii) that are United States withholding taxes (including FATCA) imposed on amounts payable to
Lender at the time Lender becomes a party to this Agreement, except to the extent that Lender’s assignor (if any) was entitled, at the time of assignment, to receive additional amounts from Borrower with respect to such Non-Excluded Taxes
pursuant to this paragraph (a). 
 (b) In addition, Borrower shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance
with applicable law. 
 (i) Whenever any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes are payable by Borrower, as promptly as possible thereafter
Borrower shall send to Lender a certified copy of an original official receipt received by Borrower showing payment thereof. If Borrower fails to pay any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes when due to the appropriate taxing authority or fails to
remit to Lender the required receipts or other required documentary evidence, Borrower shall indemnify Lender for any incremental taxes, interest or penalties that may become payable by Lender as a result of any such failure. The agreements in this
Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder. 
 (ii)
Unless otherwise excluded under the proviso in Section 2.10(a), Borrower agrees to indemnify Lender for, and hold Lender harmless against, (1) the full amount of Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes (including any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other
Taxes imposed or asserted by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 2.10) paid by Lender and (2) any liability (including additions to tax, penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, in
each case whether or not such Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. The indemnification payment under this Section 2.10(c) shall be made within thirty
(30) days after the date Lender makes a written demand therefor. 
 (iii) If requested by Borrower, Lender shall deliver to Borrower
two copies of U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-9, certifying that Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax. Such forms shall be delivered on or before the date Lender becomes a party to this Agreement. In addition, if requested
by Borrower, Lender shall deliver such forms promptly upon the obsolescence or invalidity of any form previously delivered by Lender. Lender shall promptly notify Borrower at any time it determines that it is no longer in a position to provide any
previously delivered certificate to Borrower (or any other form of certification adopted by the U.S. taxing authorities for such purpose). 

(iv) If Lender reasonably determines that it has received a refund of any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been
indemnified by Borrower or with respect to which Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.10, it shall pay over such refund to Borrower (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by
Borrower under this Section 2.10 with respect to the Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of Lender and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental

 
Authority with respect to such refund); provided, that Borrower, upon the request of Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to Borrower (plus, any penalties, interest or other
charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to Lender in the event Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This paragraph shall not be construed to require Lender to claim any tax refund or make available
its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes which it deems confidential) or disclose any information relating to its tax affairs or any computations in respect thereof or require Lender to do anything that would prejudice its
ability to benefit from any other refunds, credits, reliefs, remissions or repayments to which it may be entitled.

8.2 Cure. Nothing contained in this Agreement or the Loan Documents shall be deemed to compel Lender to accept a cure of any Event of
Default hereunder. 
 8.3 Rights and Remedies on Default. 

(a) In addition to all other rights, options and remedies granted or available to Lender under this Agreement or the Loan Documents (each of
which is also then exercisable by Lender), or otherwise available at Law or in equity, upon or at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default Lender may, in its discretion, cease making Advances hereunder,
terminate the Loan and declare the Obligations immediately due and payable, all without demand, notice, presentment or protest or further action of any kind (it also being understood that the occurrence of any of the events or conditions set forth
in Sections 8.1(kl),(l) or (m) or (n) shall automatically cause an acceleration of
the Obligations). 
 (b) In addition to all other rights, options and remedies granted or available to Lender under this Agreement or the
Loan Documents (each of which is also then exercisable by Lender), or otherwise available at Law or in equity, upon or at any time after the acceleration of the Obligations following the occurrence of an Event of Default (other than the rights with
respect to clause (iv) below which Lender may exercise at any time after an Event of Default and regardless of whether there is an acceleration), Lender may, in its discretion, exercise all rights under the UCC and any other applicable Law or
in equity, and under all Loan Documents permitted to be exercised after the occurrence of an Event of Default, including the following rights and remedies (which list is given by way of example and is not intended to be an exhaustive list of all
such rights and remedies): 
 (i) the right to take possession of, send notices regarding and collect directly the Collateral, with or
without judicial process (including without limitation the right to notify the United States postal authorities to redirect mail addressed to Borrower to an address designated by Lender); or 

(ii) by its own means or with judicial assistance, enter Borrower’s premises and take possession of the Collateral, or render it
unusable, or dispose of the Collateral on such premises in compliance with subsection (e) below, without any liability for rent, storage, utilities or other sums, and Borrower shall not resist or interfere with such action; or 

(iii) require Borrower at Borrower’s expense to assemble all or any part of the Collateral (other than real estate or fixtures) and make
it available to Lender at any place designated by Lender; or 

 (iv) take additional reserves against the Borrowing Base; or 

(v) the right to enjoin any violation of Section 7.1, it being agreed that Lender’s remedies at Law are inadequate. 

(c) Borrower hereby agrees that a notice received by it at least seven (7) days before the time of any intended public sale or of the
time after which any private sale or other disposition of the Collateral is to be made, shall be deemed to be reasonable notice of such sale or other disposition. If permitted by applicable Law, any perishable inventory or Collateral which threatens
to speedily decline in value or which is sold on a recognized market may be sold immediately by Lender without prior notice to Borrower. Borrower covenants and agrees not to interfere with or impose any obstacle to Lender’s exercise of its
rights and remedies with respect to the Collateral, after the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder. Lender shall have no obligation to clean up or prepare the Collateral for sale. If Lender sells any of the Collateral upon credit, Borrower
will only be credited with payments actually made by the purchaser thereof, that are received by Lender. Lender may, in connection with any sale of the Collateral specifically disclaim any warranties of title or the like. 

8.4 Nature of Remedies. All rights and remedies granted Lender hereunder and under the Loan Documents, or otherwise available at Law or
in equity, shall be deemed concurrent and cumulative, and not alternative remedies, and Lender may proceed with any number of remedies at the same time until all Obligations are satisfied in full. The exercise of any one right or remedy shall not be
deemed a waiver or release of any other right or remedy, and Lender, upon or at any time after the occurrence of an Event of Default, may proceed against Borrower, at any time, under any agreement, with any available remedy and in any order. 

8.5 Set-Off. If any bank account of Borrower with Lender or any participant is attached or
otherwise liened or levied upon by any third party, Lender (and such participant) shall have and be deemed to have, without notice to Borrower, the immediate right of set-off and may apply the funds or amount thus set-off against any of
Borrower’s Obligations hereunder. 
 8.6 Limitation on Remedies. 

(a) Notwithstanding, anything else to the contrary contained herein, with respect to an Event of Default under Section 6.7 hereof,
Lender agrees that it shall not be entitled to exercise its rights under Section 8.3(a) or 8.3(b), provided, that Lender is expressly permitted to take additional Reserves against Availability, or to impose the Default Rate on the Loan. The
foregoing limitation shall not apply if there shall have occurred any other Event of Default hereunder in which case Lender’s right of action shall not be impaired. Furthermore during such Event of Default nothing shall be deemed to limit
Lender’s right to pursue any action against any Guarantor. 

 (b) Notwithstanding any provision of Section 8.3(a) and (b), any exercise
of the rights and remedies of Lender solely as it relates to the Loans and Borrower under Section 8.3(a) and (b) may be subject to the provisions of the Multi-Party Agreement. 

SECTION IX. MISCELLANEOUS 
 9.1
Governing Law. THIS AGREEMENT, AND ALL RELATED AGREEMENTS AND DOCUMENTS, SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAW (OTHER THAN
SECTION 5-1401 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW). THE PROVISIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT AND ALL OTHER AGREEMENTS AND DOCUMENTS REFERRED TO HEREIN ARE TO BE DEEMED SEVERABLE, AND THE INVALIDITY OR UNENFORCEABILITY OF ANY PROVISION SHALL NOT AFFECT
OR IMPAIR THE REMAINING PROVISIONS WHICH SHALL CONTINUE IN FULL FORCE AND EFFECT. 
 9.2 Integrated Agreement. The Notes, the other
Loan Documents, all related agreements, and this Agreement shall be construed as integrated and complementary of each other, and as augmenting and not restricting Lender’s rights and remedies. If, after applying the foregoing, an inconsistency
still exists, the provisions of this Agreement shall constitute an amendment thereto and shall control. 
 9.3 Waiver. No omission or
delay by Lender in exercising any right or power under this Agreement or any related agreements and documents will impair such right or power or be construed to be a waiver of any Default, or Event of Default or an acquiescence therein, and any
single or partial exercise of any such right or power will not preclude other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, and as to Borrower no waiver will be valid unless in writing and signed by Lender and then only to the
extent specified. 
 9.4 Indemnity. 

(a) Borrower releases and shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Lender and its respective officers, employees and agents, of and from any
claims, demands, liabilities, obligations, judgments, injuries, losses, damages and costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable legal fees) resulting from (i) acts or conduct of Borrower under, pursuant or related to this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents, (ii) Borrower’s breach or violation of any representation, warranty, covenant or undertaking contained in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, (iii) Borrower’s failure to comply with
any or all Laws, statutes, ordinances, governmental rules, regulations or standards, whether federal, state or local, or court or administrative orders or decrees, (including without limitation Environmental Laws, etc.), and (iv) any claim by
any other creditor of Borrower against Lender arising out of any transaction whether hereunder or in any way related to the Loan Documents and all costs, expenses, fines, penalties or other damages resulting there from, unless resulting solely from
acts or conduct of Lender constituting willful misconduct or gross negligence. 

 (b) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under subsection (a) above of notice of
the commencement of any action by a third party, such indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under such subsection, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof.
The omission so to notify the indemnifying party shall relieve the indemnifying party from any liability which it may have to any indemnified party under such subsection only if the indemnifying party is unable to defend such actions as a result of
such failure to so notify. In case any such action shall be brought against any indemnified party and it shall notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate therein and, to the
extent that it shall wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel satisfactory to such indemnified party (who shall not, except with the consent of the indemnified party, be counsel
to the indemnified party), and, after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to such indemnified party under such subsection for any
legal expenses of other counsel or any other expenses, in each case subsequently incurred by such indemnified party, in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation. 

9.5 Time. Whenever Borrower shall be required to make any payment, or perform any act, on a day which is not a Business Day, such
payment may be made, or such act may be performed, on the next succeeding Business Day. Time is of the essence in Borrower’s performance under all provisions of this Agreement and all related agreements and documents. 

9.6 Expenses of Lender. At the Closing and from time to time thereafter, Borrower will pay within five (5) Business Days of
receipt of written demand of Lender all reasonable costs, fees and expenses of Lender in connection with (i) the analysis, negotiation, preparation, execution, administration, delivery and termination of this Agreement, and other Loan Documents
and the documents and instruments referred to herein and therein, and any amendment, amendment and restatement, supplement, waiver or consent relating hereto or thereto, whether or not any such amendment, amendment and restatement, supplement,
waiver or consent is executed or becomes effective, search costs, the reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of counsel for Lender, any fees or expenses incurred by Lender under Section 6.10 for which Borrower are obligated thereunder, and

the other Loan Documents, including title investigations, Lien searches and other costs and expenses); (ii) the enforcement of Lender’s rights hereunder, or the collection of any payments owing from, Borrower under this Agreement and/or
the other Loan Documents or the protection, preservation or defense of the rights of Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents; and (iii) any refinancing or restructuring of the credit arrangements provided under this Agreement and
other Loan Documents in the nature of a “work-out” or arising in connection with any insolvency or bankruptcy proceedings (including any action Lender deems necessary to protect its interest in such proceedings, or otherwise (including the
reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel for Lender and, with respect to clauses (ii) and (iii), reasonable allocated costs of internal counsel)) (collectively, the “Expenses”).

acting as principals and without any brokers, agents or finders being the effective procuring cause hereof. Borrower represents that it has not committed Lender to the payment of any brokerage fee, commission or charge in connection with this
transaction. If any such claim is made on Lender by any broker, finder or agent or other person alleging that it is based on actions of Borrower, a Guarantor or any affiliate, officer director or employee of either of them, Borrower hereby
indemnifies, defends and saves such party harmless against such claim and further will defend, with counsel satisfactory to Lender, any action or actions to recover on such claim, at Borrower’s own cost and expense, including such party’s
reasonable counsel fees. Borrower further agree that until any such claim or demand is adjudicated in such party’s favor, the amount demanded shall be deemed an Obligation of Borrower under this Agreement.

The term “Ineligible Financed SBA Loans” means the portion of each SBA 7(a) Loan as to which any of the exclusionary criteria
set forth below applies; provided, however, that Lender reserves the right, at any time and from time to time after the Closing Date, to adjust any of the criteria set forth below and to establish new criteria with respect to Eligible
SBA 7(a) Loans, in its reasonable credit judgment; provided, further, however, that Lender shall provide twenty-five (25) days prior written notice to Borrower with respect to any adjustment of existing criteria or
establishment of new criteria that would have the effect of reducing the availability of Advances to Borrower. 
 Ineligible Financed SBA
Loans are SBA 7(a) Loans: 
 (i) as to which all conditions precedent to the effectiveness of the SBA guaranty with respect to the
applicable SBA 7(a) Loan have not been met; 
 (ii) with respect to Financed Non-Guaranteed Loans and Advances-Non-Guaranteed Loans, with
respect to which Borrower has not perfected its security interests and Liens in all underlying collateral for the applicable SBA 7(a) Loan; provided, that at the discretion of Lender, the perfection requirements of this clause may be deemed
satisfied if escrow arrangements reasonably acceptable to Lender are in place to insure that all steps necessary for such perfection will be accomplished promptly, and in any event within seven (7) Business Days following the disbursement by

AMENDED AND RESTATED GUARANTY OF PAYMENT AND PERFORMANCE 

THIS AMENDED AND RESTATED GUARANTY OF PAYMENT AND PERFORMANCE (this “Guaranty”) is made as of June 18, 2015 by Newtek
Business Services Corp., a Maryland corporation and successor-in-interest to Newtek Business Services, Inc., a New York corporation, with its principal executive offices at 212 West 35th Street,
New York, New York 10001 (“Guarantor”), in favor of Capital One, National Association having an address at 299 Park Avenue, New York, New York 10171 (“Lender”). 

R E C I T A L S : 

WHEREAS, Lender established a line of credit in favor of Newtek Small Business Finance, LLC (successor-in-interest by merger to Newtek Small
Business Finance, Inc.), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Guarantor (the “Borrower”), in the maximum principal amount not to exceed Fifty Million and No/100 Dollars ($50,000,000) pursuant to a Third Amended and Restated Loan
Agreement dated as of October 29, 2014 (as amended, modified, supplemented, or restated from time to time, the “Loan Agreement”) and as evidenced by an Amended and Restated Revolving Loan Note (Guaranteed Loans) and an Amended
and Restated Revolving Loan Note (Non-Guaranteed Loans); and 
 WHEREAS, it is a condition precedent to the execution and delivery of a
First Amendment to Loan Documents dated as of the date hereof between the Borrower and Lender, that the Guarantor execute and deliver this Guaranty in favor of Lender. 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, and
in order to induce Lender to make the Loans to Borrower, Guarantor hereby represents, warrants and covenants to Lender as follows: 
 1.
Authorization and Enforceability of Loan Documents. Guarantor has taken all steps required to authorize and has in its capacity as the sole member of Borrower authorized the execution and delivery of the Loan Agreement and the other Loan
Documents. To the best of its knowledge, the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents have been duly authorized and executed by Borrower and are legal, valid and binding instruments, enforceable against Borrower in accordance with their
respective terms subject to the effect of bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other legal or equitable principles now or hereafter in effect generally affecting creditors’ rights and remedies. 

2. Obligations Guaranteed. Guarantor unconditionally guarantees to Lender (i) the prompt and unconditional payment of all of the
Obligations under the Loan Agreement, including without limitation, the Loans and the interest thereon, whether now or hereafter advanced, as the same shall become due and payable under the Notes, the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents,
whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, and any and all sums of money which, at the time, may have become or become due and payable under the provisions of the Loan Agreement or any other Loan Document, and the due and prompt
performance of all of the terms, agreements, covenants and conditions of the Notes, the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents; (ii) payment in full of any and all expenses that may be paid or incurred by Lender in the collection of all or
any portion of Guarantors’ obligations 

 
hereunder or the exercise or enforcement of any one or more of the other rights, powers, privileges, remedies and interests of Lender under the Loan Documents or hereunder, irrespective of the
manner or success of any such collection, exercise or enforcement, and whether or not such expenses constitute part of the Borrower’s obligations; and (iii) performance of all of the Borrower’s (and all of the other entities
guaranteeing the Loans) covenants and obligations contained herein and/or therein. Guarantor’s obligation to cause Borrower and any other guarantors to take any action with respect to their respective covenants and obligations shall be limited
to those actions consistent with its status as the sole stockholder (or as a member or majority stockholder as applicable) of such parties and shall be exercised through the power consequent upon such status. 

3. Unconditional Guaranty. This Guaranty is an absolute, unconditional, present and continuing guaranty of payment and performance and
not of collection and is in no way conditioned or contingent upon any attempt to enforce Lender’s rights against Borrower or to collect from the Borrower or upon any other condition or contingency; accordingly, Lender shall have the right to
proceed against Guarantor immediately upon any Event of Default under the Loan Documents without taking any prior action or proceeding to enforce the Loan Documents or to liquidate or foreclose on any security Lender may at any time hold pursuant
thereto. Guarantor hereby waives and releases any claim (within the meaning of 11 U.S.C. § 101) which Guarantor may have against Borrower arising from a payment made by Guarantor under this Guaranty and agrees not to assert or take
advantage of any subrogation rights of Guarantor or any other right of Guarantor to proceed against Borrower for reimbursement. It is expressly understood that the waivers and agreements of Guarantor constitute additional and cumulative benefits
given to Lender for its security and as an inducement for its extension of credit to Borrower. 
 4. Liability Unimpaired.
Guarantor’s liability hereunder shall in no way be limited or impaired by, and Guarantor hereby consents to and agrees to be bound by, any amendment, extension or modification of the provisions of any of the Loan Documents or any other
instrument made to or with Lender by Borrower or any other guarantor, or any Person who succeeds Borrower as owner of all or part of any Collateral prior to foreclosure of the Loan Agreement or exercise of any power of sale contained therein. In
addition, Guarantor’s liability hereunder shall in no way be limited or impaired by (i) any extensions of time for performance required by any of said documents, (ii) any sale, assignment or foreclosure of the Notes or Loan Agreement
or any sale or transfer of all or part of the property covered by the Loan Agreement, (iii) any exculpatory provision in any of said instruments limiting Lender’s recourse to any Collateral or to any other security, or limiting
Lender’s rights to a deficiency judgment against Borrower, (iv) the release of Borrower or any other Person (including, without limit, any other guarantor) from performance or observance of any of the agreements, covenants, terms or
conditions contained in any of said instruments by operation of law or otherwise, (v) the release or substitution in whole or in part of any security for the Loans, (vi) Lender’s failure to record the Loan Agreement or file any UCC
financing statements (or Lender’s improper recording or filing of any thereof) or to otherwise perfect, protect, secure or insure any security interest or lien given as security for the Loans, (vii) the invalidity, irregularity or
unenforceability, in whole or in part, of any of the Loan Documents, this Guaranty or any other instrument or agreement executed or delivered to Lender in connection with the Loans, except to the extent that there is a final adjudication by a court
of competent jurisdiction of a valid defense to Borrower’s obligations under the Loan Documents to payment of the Indebtedness, (viii) the inaccuracy of 

  
 - 2 - 

 
any of the representations and warranties made by Borrower in the Loan Agreement, the other Loan Documents or any disbursement certificates or requests for disbursements made under the Loan
Agreement, or (ix) any other action or circumstance whatsoever which constitutes, or might be construed to constitute, a legal or equitable discharge or defense (except full payment and satisfaction) of Borrower for its obligations under any of
the Loan Documents or of any Guarantor under this Guaranty (whether as surety, guarantor or otherwise); and, in any such case, whether with or without notice to Guarantor and with or without consideration. 

5. Preservation of Loan Documents. Guarantor will cause Borrower to maintain and preserve the enforceability of the Loan Documents as
the same may be amended, modified, supplemented or restated at any time and from time to time, and will not permit Borrower to take or to fail to take actions of any kind, the taking of which or the failure to take which might be the basis for a
claim that Guarantor has a defense to Guarantor’s obligations hereunder. 
 6. Security; Events of Default. Pursuant to the
terms of the Amended and Restated Security Agreement of even date herewith (the “Security Agreement”), as security for any and all of the obligations of Guarantor under this Guaranty, now existing or hereafter arising hereunder or
otherwise (collectively, the “Liabilities”), Guarantor has granted to Lender a lien upon and a security interest in certain collateral more particularly described in the Security Agreement, including in the proceeds thereof. 

Without limiting the generality of paragraphs 1-4, inclusive, of this Guaranty, and in addition to any and all rights and remedies Lender may
have hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, upon the occurrence of any of the following events or any other agreement with Lender (each an “Event of Default”): 

(a) Guarantor defaults under this Guaranty or any Loan Document or any other agreement with Lender to which Guarantor is a party; 

(b) any representation or warranty made by Guarantor herein or in any other Loan Document to which Guarantor is a party is false or untrue as
of the date such representation or warranty is made; 
 (c) Guarantor commences any case, proceeding, or other action under any law of any
jurisdiction relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, or relief of debtors or seeks to have an order for relief entered with respect to Guarantor or seeks to be adjudicated a bankrupt or insolvent, or seeks reorganization, arrangement,
adjustment, liquidation, dissolution, composition or other relief with respect to Guarantor or Guarantor’s debts, or seeks the appointment of a receiver, trustee, custodian, or other similar official for Guarantor or for all or any substantial
part of Guarantor’s property; 
 (d) Guarantor makes a general assignment for the benefit of creditors; 

(e) there is commenced against Guarantor any case, proceeding or other action of the type referred to in clause (c) above or seeking the
issuance of a warrant of attachment, execution, distraint, or similar process against all or any substantial part of Guarantor’s property, which case, proceeding or other action results in an entry of an order for relief or is not dismissed,
discharged or bonded within sixty days of the commencement thereof;

acquiescence in or in furtherance of, any of the acts set forth in clause (c) and (e) above; 
 (g) Guarantor admits in writing
Guarantor’s inability to pay Guarantor’s debts as they mature; 
 (h) Guarantor terminates or dissolves or suspends
Guarantor’s usual business activities or conveys, sells, leases, transfers or otherwise disposes of all or a substantial part of Guarantor’s property, business or assets other than in the ordinary course of business; 

(i) there shall be any default under or demand made under any other financing agreement or guaranty to which it is a party; or 

(j) the existence or occurrence at any time of one or more conditions or events which, in the reasonable good faith opinion of Lender, has
resulted or is reasonably likely to result in a material adverse change in the business, properties or financial condition of Guarantor; 
 then, any or all
of the obligations of Guarantor shall, at Lender’s option, become (for the purpose of this Guaranty) immediately due and payable by Guarantor, without demand or notice. In addition, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, Lender shall have
all of the rights and remedies provided to a secured party by the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in New York State at that time. Guarantor agrees that in the event that notice is necessary, written notice provided in accordance with
paragraph 26 of this Guaranty and given below five Business Days prior to the date of public sale of the property subject to the lien and security interest created herein or prior to the date after which private sale or any other disposition of
said property will be made shall constitute reasonable notice. 
 7. Indemnification; Payments; Certain Waivers. Guarantor
(i) waives any right or claim of right to cause a marshalling of Borrower’s assets or to cause Lender to proceed against any of the security for the Loans or for the obligations guaranteed hereby before proceeding against Guarantor,
(ii) agrees that any payments required to be made by Guarantor hereunder shall become due on demand in accordance with the terms of paragraph 2 hereof and without presentment to Borrower, demand for payment or protest, or notice of
non-payment or protest, and (iii) except as hereinafter provided, expressly waives and relinquishes all rights and remedies accorded by applicable law to guarantors. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Guarantor hereby waives all

contribution, indemnification, set-off, exoneration or reimbursement, whether from Borrower, Guarantor, or any other Person now or hereafter primarily or secondarily liable for any of Borrower’ obligations to Lender, and whether arising by
contract or operation of law or otherwise by reason of Guarantor’s execution, delivery or performance of this Guaranty. 

  
 - 4 - 

 
Guarantor does not waive and hereby retains all rights of subrogation, contribution, indemnification, set-off or reimbursement against Borrower or any other guarantor that Guarantor may have (the
“Undersigned’s Rights”); provided, however, that (i) this Guaranty shall neither be contingent upon the existence of the Undersigned’s Rights nor subject to any claims or defenses whatsoever which may be
asserted in connection with the enforcement or attempted enforcement of the Undersigned’s Rights including, without limitation, any claim that the Undersigned’s Rights were abrogated by any of Lender’ acts, and (ii) until the
Loans shall have been fully and finally paid and satisfied and Lender shall have no further commitment or other obligation to make Loans or other financial accommodations to Borrower and the Loan Agreement and all other Loan Documents shall have
been terminated and shall be of no further force and effect, Guarantor hereby postpones and subordinates (A) the exercise of any and all of the Undersigned’s Rights to Lender’s rights against Guarantor under this Guaranty or against
Borrower under any of the Loan Documents, and (B) any of the Undersigned’s Rights to any collateral securing the Loans. 
 8.

restored or returned by Lender (whether as a preference, fraudulent conveyance or otherwise) upon or in connection with the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of Borrower, Guarantor or any other Person, or upon or as
a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, either Borrower, Guarantor, any other Credit Party or any other Person or for a substantial part of Borrower’s, Guarantor’s, or any
of such other Person’s property, as the case may be, or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made. Guarantor further agrees that in the event any such payment is rescinded or must be restored or returned, all costs and reasonable
expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable legal fees and expenses) incurred by or on behalf of Lender in defending or enforcing such continuance or reinstatement, as the case may be, shall constitute costs of enforcement, the payment of
which is guaranteed by Guarantor pursuant to paragraph 2 above and covered by Guarantor’s indemnity pursuant to paragraph 7 above. 

9. Litigation, Compliance with Judgments. Guarantor represents and warrants with respect to itself that there are no actions, suits or
proceedings pending or threatened against or affecting Guarantor, at law, in equity or before or by any governmental authorities which would have a material adverse effect on Guarantor’s ability to perform its obligations hereunder and, to the

“Laws”) presently in effect having applicability to Guarantor, and agrees that Guarantor will comply promptly with all laws now or hereafter in effect having applicability to Guarantor.

suffer or permit any of the Borrower’s Collateral under the Loan Agreement to be directly or indirectly pledged to any party other than Lender. 

14. Non-Waiver Remedies Cumulative. No failure or delay on Lender’s part in exercising any right, power or privilege under any of
the Loan Documents, this Guaranty or any other document made to or with Lender in connection with the Loans shall operate as a waiver of any such privilege, power or right or shall be deemed to constitute Lender’s acquiescence in any default by
Borrower or Guarantor under any of said documents. A waiver by Lender of any right or remedy under any of the Loan Documents, this Guaranty or any other document made to or with Lender in connection with the Loans on any one occasion shall not be
construed as a bar to any right or remedy which Lender otherwise would have on any future occasion. The rights and remedies provided in said documents are cumulative, may be exercised singly or concurrently and are not exclusive of any rights or
remedies provided by law.

and payments by Guarantor under this Guaranty shall not reduce any of Guarantor’s obligations and liabilities under any such indemnity agreement. 

17. Severability. Any provision of this Guaranty, or the application thereof to any Person or circumstance, which, for any reason, in
whole or in part, is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions of this Guaranty (or the
remaining portions of such provision) or the application thereof to any other Person or circumstance, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision (or portion thereof)
or the application thereof to any Person or circumstance in any other jurisdiction. 
 18. Entire Agreement; Amendments. This
Guaranty contains the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior oral or written agreements or statements relating to such subject matter, and none of the terms and provisions hereof may be
waived, amended or terminated except by a written instrument signed by the Person against whom enforcement of the waiver, amendment or termination is sought. 

19. Successors and Assigns. This Guaranty shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of Lender and Guarantor and their
respective successors and assigns. This 

  
 - 7 - 

 
Guaranty may be assigned by Lender with respect to all or any portion of the obligations guaranteed hereby, and when so assigned Guarantor shall be liable under this Guaranty to the assignee(s)
of the portion(s) of the obligations guaranteed hereby so assigned without in any manner affecting the liability of Guarantor hereunder to Lender with respect to any portion of the obligations guaranteed hereby retained by Lender. 

20. WAIVER OF TRIAL BY JURY. GUARANTOR, AND BY ITS ACCEPTANCE HEREOF, LENDER, EACH HEREBY AGREES NOT TO ELECT A TRIAL BY JURY
OF ANY ISSUE TRIABLE OF RIGHT BY JURY, AND WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY FULLY TO THE EXTENT THAT ANY SUCH RIGHT SHALL NOW OR HEREAFTER EXIST WITH REGARD TO THE LOAN DOCUMENTS, OR ANY CLAIM, COUNTERCLAIM OR OTHER ACTION ARISING IN CONNECTION
THEREWITH. THIS WAIVER OF RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IS GIVEN KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY BY GUARANTOR AND LENDER, AND IS INTENDED TO ENCOMPASS INDIVIDUALLY EACH INSTANCE AND EACH ISSUE AS TO WHICH THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY WOULD OTHERWISE ACCRUE.
GUARANTOR AND LENDER ARE EACH HEREBY AUTHORIZED TO FILE A COPY OF THIS PARAGRAPH IN ANY PROCEEDING AS CONCLUSIVE EVIDENCE OF THIS WAIVER. 

21. ADDITIONAL WAIVERS IN THE EVENT OF ENFORCEMENT. GUARANTOR HEREBY EXPRESSLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES, IN CONNECTION WITH
ANY SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT BY OR ON BEHALF OF LENDER ON THIS GUARANTY, ANY AND EVERY RIGHT GUARANTOR MAY HAVE TO (I) INJUNCTIVE RELIEF, (II) INTERPOSE ANY COUNTERCLAIM THEREIN (OTHER THAN COMPULSORY COUNTERCLAIMS), AND (III) HAVE
