Guarantor.

subject to any court order, governmental decree or any charter or other corporate restriction, adversely affecting its business, assets, operations or condition (financial or otherwise), nor is any such Person in default in the performance,
observance or fulfillment of any of the material obligations, covenants or conditions contained in any agreement or instrument to which it is a party, or any law, regulation, decree, order or the like.

the ownership or operation of the property owned or operated by Borrower or any Subsidiary or for the conduct of any business in which it is engaged have been duly issued and are in full force and effect, and it is not in default, nor has any event
occurred which with the passage of time or the giving of notice, or both, would constitute a default, under any of the terms or provisions of any part thereof, or under any order, decree, ruling, regulation, closing agreement or other decision or
instrument of any governmental commission, bureau or other administrative agency or public regulatory body having jurisdiction over such Person, which default would have a Material Adverse Effect on such Person. Except as noted herein, no approval,
consent or authorization of, or filing or registration with, any governmental commission, bureau or other regulatory authority or agency is required with respect to the execution, delivery or performance of any Loan Document.

 (a) Bank may declare any or all Obligations (other than Obligations under any Swap Agreements, between Borrower and Bank or any Affiliate of Bank, which shall be due in accordance with and governed by the provisions
of said Swap Agreements) to be immediately due and payable (if not earlier demanded), terminate its obligation to make Loans and other extensions of credit to Borrower, bring suit against Borrower to collect the Obligations, exercise any remedy
available to Bank hereunder or at law and take any action or exercise any remedy provided herein or in any other Loan Document or under applicable law. No remedy shall be exclusive of other remedies or impair the right of Bank to exercise any other
remedies. 
 (b) Without waiving any of its other rights hereunder or under any other Loan Document, Bank shall have all rights and remedies
of a secured party under the Code (and the Uniform Commercial Code of any other applicable jurisdiction) and such other rights and remedies as may be available hereunder, under other applicable law or pursuant to contract. If requested by Bank,
Borrower will promptly assemble the Collateral and make it available to Bank at a place to be designated by Bank. Borrower agrees that any notice by Bank of the sale or disposition of the Collateral or any other intended action hereunder, whether
required by the Code or otherwise, shall constitute reasonable notice to Borrower if the notice is mailed to Borrower by regular or certified mail, postage prepaid, at least five days before the action to be taken. Borrower shall be liable for any
deficiencies in the event the proceeds of the disposition of the Collateral do not satisfy the Obligations in full. 
 (c) Bank may demand,
collect and sue for all amounts owed pursuant to Accounts, General Intangibles, Chattel Paper, Instruments, Documents or for proceeds of any Collateral (either in Borrower’s name or Bank’s name at the latter’s option), with the right

 34 

 8.3 Receiver. In addition to any other remedy available to it, Bank shall have the absolute
right, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, to seek and obtain the appointment of a receiver to take possession of and operate and/or dispose of the business and assets of Borrower and any costs and expenses incurred by Bank in connection
with such receivership shall bear interest at the Default Rate, at Bank’s option, and shall be secured by all Collateral. 
 8.4
Deposits Insurance. After the occurrence of an Event of Default, Borrower authorizes Bank to collect and apply against the Obligations when due any cash or Deposit Accounts in its possession, and any refund of insurance premiums or any
insurance proceeds payable on account of the loss or damage to any of the Collateral and irrevocably appoints Bank as its attorney-in-fact to endorse any check or draft or take other action necessary to obtain such funds. 
 9. Security Agreement. 
 9.1 Security Interest. 
 (a) As security for the payment and performance of any and all Obligations and the
performance of all obligations and covenants of Borrower to Bank and its Affiliates, whether hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, Swap Agreements between Bank or any Affiliate of Bank and Borrower or otherwise, certain or contingent, now
existing or hereafter arising, which are now, or may at any time or times hereafter be owing by Borrower to Bank or any of Bank’s Affiliates, Borrower hereby grants to Bank (for itself and its Affiliates) a continuing security interest in and
general lien upon and right of set-off against, all right, title and interest of Borrower in and to the Collateral, whether now owned or hereafter acquired by Borrower. 
 (b) Except as herein or by applicable law otherwise expressly provided, Bank shall not be obligated to exercise any degree of care in connection with any Collateral in its possession, to take any steps necessary to
preserve any rights in any of the Collateral or to preserve any rights therein against prior parties, and Borrower agrees to take such steps. In any case Bank shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care if it shall have taken such steps for
the care and preservation of the Collateral or rights therein as Borrower may have reasonably requested Bank to take and Bank’s omission to take any action not requested by Borrower shall not be deemed a failure to exercise reasonable care. No
segregation or specific allocation by Bank of specified items of Collateral against any liability of Borrower shall waive or affect any security interest in or Lien against other items of Collateral or any of Bank’s options, powers or rights
under this Agreement or otherwise arising. 
 (c) Bank may at any time and from time to time, with or without notice to Borrower, (i)
transfer into the name of Bank or the name of Bank’s nominee any of the Collateral, (ii) notify any Account Debtor or other obligor of any Collateral to make payment thereon direct to Bank of any amounts due or to become due thereon and (iii)
receive and after a Default direct the disposition of any proceeds of any Collateral. 
  

 35 

 (d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) no Account, Instrument, Chattel Paper or other obligation or
property of any kind due from, owed by or belonging to, a Sanctioned Person or (ii) any lease in which the lessee is a Sanctioned Person shall be Collateral or shall be credited toward the payment of the Obligations. 
 9.2 Financing Statements; Power of Attorney. Borrower authorizes Bank at Borrower’s expense to file any financing statements and/or
amendments thereto relating to the Collateral (without Borrowers signature thereon) which Bank deems appropriate that (a) indicate the Collateral (i) as “all assets” of Borrower or words of similar effect, if appropriate,
regardless of whether any particular asset comprised in the Collateral falls within the scope of Article 9 of the Code, or (ii) by specific Collateral category, and (b) provide any other information required by part 5 of Article 9 of the Code
for the sufficiency or filing office acceptance of any financing statement or amendment. Borrower irrevocably appoints Bank as its attorney-in-fact to execute any such financing statements and/or control agreements in Borrower’s name and to
perform all other acts, at Borrower’s expense, which Bank deems appropriate to perfect and to continue perfection of the security interest of Bank. Borrower hereby appoints Bank as Borrower’s attorney-in-fact to endorse, present and
collect on behalf of Borrower and in Borrower’s name any draft, checks or other documents necessary or desirable to collect any amounts which Borrower may be owed. Bank is hereby granted a license or other right to use, without charge,
Borrower’s labels, patents, copyrights, rights of use of any name, trade secrets, trade names, trademarks and advertising matter, or any Property of a similar nature, as it pertains to the Collateral, in advertising for sale and selling any
Collateral, and Borrower’s rights under all licenses and all franchise agreements shall inure to Banks benefit. The proceeds realized from the sale or other disposition of any Collateral may be applied, after allowing two (2) Business Days
for collection, first to the costs, expenses and attorneys’ fees and expenses incurred by Bank for collection and for acquisition, completion, protection, removal, storage, sale and delivering of the Collateral; secondly, to interest due upon
any of the Obligations; and thirdly, to the principal amount of the Obligations and to any other Obligations then outstanding. If any deficiency shall arise, Borrower shall remain liable to Bank therefor. 
 9.3 Entry. Borrower hereby irrevocably consents to any act by Bank or its agents in entering upon any premises for the purposes of either
(I) inspecting the Collateral or (ii) taking possession of the Collateral and Borrower hereby waives its right to assert against Bank or its agents any claim based upon trespass or any similar cause of action for entering upon any premises
where the Collateral may be located. 
 9.4 Other Rights. Borrower authorizes Bank without affecting Borrower’s
obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document from time to time (i) to take from any party and hold additional Collateral or guaranties for the payment of the Obligations or any part thereof, and to exchange, enforce or release such
collateral or guaranty of payment of the Obligations or any part thereof and to release or substitute any endorser or guarantor or any party who has given any security interest in any collateral as security for the payment of the Obligations or any
part thereof or any party in any way obligated to pay the Obligations or any part thereof; and (ii) upon the occurrence of any Event of Default to direct the manner of the disposition of the Collateral and the enforcement of any endorsements,
guaranties, letters of credit or other security relating to the Obligations or any part thereof as Bank in its sole discretion may determine. 
  

 36 

 9.5 Accounts. Before or after any Event of Default, Bank may notify any Account Debtor of
Bank’s security interest and may direct such Account Debtor to make payment directly to Bank for application against the Obligations. Any such payments received by or on behalf of Borrower at any time, whether before or after default, shall be
the property of Bank, shall be held in trust for Bank and not commingled with any other assets of any Person (except to the extent they may be commingled with other assets of Borrower in an account with Bank) and shall be immediately delivered to
Bank in the form received. Bank shall have the right to apply any proceeds of Collateral to such of the Obligations as it may determine. 
 9.6 Waiver of Marshaling. Borrower hereby waives any right it may have to require marshaling of its assets. 
 9.7
Control. Borrower will cooperate with Bank in obtaining control of, or control agreements with respect to, Collateral for which control or a control agreement is required for perfection of the Bank’s security interest under the Code.

 10. Miscellaneous. 
 10.1 No Waiver, Remedies Cumulative. No failure on the part of Bank to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or
partial exercise of any right hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. The remedies herein provided are cumulative and are in addition to any other remedies provided by law, any Loan Document or
otherwise. 
 10.2 Survival of Representations. All representations and warranties made herein shall survive the making of the
Loan hereunder and the delivery of the Note, and shall continue in full force and effect so long as any Obligations is outstanding, there exists any commitment by Bank to Borrower, and until this Agreement is formally terminated in writing.

 10.3 Indemnity By Borrower; Expenses. In addition to all other Obligations, Borrower agrees to defend, protect, indemnify
and hold harmless Bank and its Affiliates and all of their respective officers, directors, employees, attorneys, consultants and agents from and against any and all losses, damages, liabilities, obligations, penalties, fines, fees, costs and
expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’ and paralegals’ fees, costs and expenses, and fees, costs and expenses for investigations and experts) incurred by such indemnitees, whether prior to or from and after the date hereof, as

with the transactions contemplated thereby, other than for such loss, damage, liability, obligation, penalty, fee, cost or expense arising from such indemnitee’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. If Borrower should fail to pay any tax or
other amount required by this Agreement to be paid or which may be reasonably necessary to protect or preserve any Collateral or Borrower’s or Bank’s interests therein, Bank may make such payment and the amount thereof shall be payable on
demand, may at Bank’s option be debited against any Deposit Account of Borrower at Bank or converted to a Loan hereunder, shall bear interest at the Default Rate from the date of demand until paid and shall be deemed to be Obligations entitled
to the benefit and security of the Loan Documents. In addition, Borrower agrees to pay and save Bank harmless against any liability for payment of any state documentary stamp taxes, intangible taxes or similar taxes (including interest or penalties,
if any) which may now or hereafter be determined to be payable in respect to the execution, delivery or recording of any Loan Document or the making of any Loan, whether originally thought to be due or not, and regardless of any mistake of fact or

any guaranty for all or any of the Obligations, or (iii) any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, Borrower or any third party, other than payment and performance in full of the
Obligations.

the final agreement between the parties and may not be contradicted by evidence of prior, contemporaneous or subsequent oral agreements of the parties. There are no unwritten oral agreements between the parties.

ANY JUDICIAL, MEDIATION OR ARBITRATION PROCEEDING OR ANY CLAIM OR CONTROVERSY BETWEEN OR AMONG THEM (A “DISPUTE”) THAT MAY ARISE OUT OF OR BE IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH THIS AGREEMENT, THE LOAN DOCUMENTS OR ANY OTHER AGREEMENT OR DOCUMENT
BETWEEN OR AMONG THEM OR THE OBLIGATIONS EVIDENCED HEREBY OR RELATED HERETO, IN NO EVENT SHALL ANY PARTY HAVE A REMEDY OF, OR BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER FOR, (1) INDIRECT, SPECIAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OR (2) PUNITIVE OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES.

OTHERWISE. 
 10.16 Binding Arbitration; Preservation of Remedies. 
 (a) Binding Arbitration. Upon demand of any party hereto, whether made before or after institution of any judicial proceeding, any claim or
controversy between parties hereto arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Documents shall be resolved by binding arbitration conducted under and governed by the Commercial Financial Disputes Arbitration Rules (the
“Arbitration Rules”) of the American Arbitration Association (the “AAA”) and the Federal Arbitration Act. Disputes may include, without limitation, tort claims, counterclaims, a dispute as to whether a matter is subject to
arbitration, claims brought as class actions, or claims arising from documents executed in the future. A judgment upon the award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this arbitration provision does not
apply to disputes under or related to Swap Agreements. 
 (b) Special Rules. All arbitration hearings shall be conducted in the city
named in the address of Bank first stated above. A hearing shall begin within 90 days of demand for arbitration and all hearings shall conclude within 120 days of demand for arbitration. These time limitations may not be extended unless a party

 RECITALS 
 Borrower has requested that Bank extend or continue credit to Borrower as described below,
and Bank has agreed to provide such credit to Borrower on the terms and conditions contained herein. 
 NOW, THEREFORE, for valuable
consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Bank and Borrower hereby agree as follows: 
 ARTICLE I 

 CREDIT TERMS 
 1.1 LINE
OF CREDIT. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Bank hereby agrees to make advances to Borrower from time to time up to and including August 18, 2011, not to exceed at any time the aggregate principal amount of Twenty Million
and 00/100 Dollars ($20,000,000.00) (“Line of Credit”), the proceeds of which shall be used by Borrower to refinance certain indebtedness of Borrower, pay fees and expenses incurred in connection with the transaction contemplated hereby
and provide for working capital and general corporate purpose needs of the Borrower and subsidiaries. Concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, Borrower shall pay to Bank a fully earned non-refundable commitment fee for the Line of Credit
in the amount of Fifty Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($50,000.00), plus one quarter of one percent (.25%) per annum on the total amount of the Line of Credit, regardless of usage, payable upon each anniversary date thereof. Borrower’s obligation
to repay advances under the Line of Credit shall be evidenced by a promissory note dated as of the date hereof (“Line of Credit Note”), all terms of which are incorporated herein by this reference. All advances under the Line of Credit
shall bear interest at the rates provided for in the Line of Credit Note. 
 1.2 LETTER OF CREDIT SUBFEATURE. As a subfeature under the Line
of Credit, Bank agrees from time to time during the term thereof to issue or cause an affiliate to issue standby letters of credit and commercial letters of credit for the account of Borrower (each, a “Letter of Credit” and collectively,
“Letters of Credit”); provided however, that the aggregate undrawn amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit shall not at any time exceed One Million and 00/100 Dollars ($1,000,000.00). The form and substance of each Letter of Credit
shall be subject to approval by Bank, in its sole discretion. A Commercial Letter of Credit shall be issued for a term not to exceed three hundred sixty (360) days, as designated by Borrower; provided however, that no Letter of Credit shall
have an expiration date later than the maturity date of the Line of Credit. The undrawn amount of all Letters of Credit shall be reserved under the Line of Credit and shall not be available for borrowings thereunder. Each Letter of Credit shall be
subject to the additional terms and conditions of the Letter of Credit agreements, applications and any related documents required by Bank in connection with the issuance thereof. Each drawing paid under a Letter of Credit shall be deemed an advance
under the Line of Credit and shall be repaid by Borrower in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement applicable to such advances; provided however, that if advances under the Line of Credit are not available, for any reason, at the
time any drawing is paid, then Borrower shall immediately pay to Bank the full amount 

 
drawn, together with interest thereon from the date such drawing is paid to the date such amount is fully repaid by Borrower, at the rate of interest
applicable to advances under the Line of Credit. In such event Borrower agrees that Bank, in its sole discretion, may debit any account maintained by Borrower with Bank for the amount of any such drawing. Borrower shall pay to Bank a fee upon
the issuance of each Letter of Credit equal to two and one tenth percent (2.10%) of the face amount thereof (the “Letter of Credit Issuance Fee”); provided, however, notwithstanding the forgoing, if Borrower’s EDITDA (as defined
herein) is less than $3,750,000.00, measured quarterly on a trailing four (4) quarter basis, then the Letter of Credit Issuance Fee shall be increased to two and one half percent (2.50%) of the face amount of the Letter of Credit. In
addition to the Letter of Credit Issuance Fee, Borrower shall pay Bank (i) fees upon the payment or negotiation of each drawing under any Letter of Credit, and (ii) fees upon the occurrence of any other activity with respect to any Letter
of Credit (including without limitation, the transfer, amendment or cancellation of any Letter of Credit) determined in accordance with Bank’s standard fees and charges then in effect for such activity. 
 1.3 BORROWING AND REPAYMENT. Borrower may from time to time during the term of the Line of Credit borrow, partially or wholly repay its outstanding
borrowings, and reborrow, subject to all of the limitations, terms and conditions contained herein or in the Line of Credit Note; provided however, that the total outstanding borrowings under the Line of Credit shall not at any time exceed the
maximum principal amount available thereunder, as set forth above. 
 1.4 COLLECTION OF PAYMENTS. Borrower authorizes Bank to collect
principal, interest and fees due under the Line of Credit Note or this Credit Agreement by charging Borrower’s deposit account number 4020010104 with Bank, or any other deposit account maintained by Borrower with Bank, for the full amount
thereof. Should there be insufficient funds in any such deposit account to pay all such sums when due, the full amount of such deficiency shall be immediately due and payable by Borrower. 
 1.5 COLLATERAL. As security for all indebtedness and other obligations of Borrower to Bank, including, without limitations, its obligations under the
Line of Credit, Line of Credit Note, this Agreement and the Loan Documents (as defined herein), Borrower hereby grants to Bank security interests of first priority in (a) all Borrower’s inventory, accounts, equipment, general intangibles,
payment intangibles, and any and all cash and non-cash proceeds or products of the forgoing, including, without limitation, proceeds in deposit accounts or proceeds represented by insurance claims or policies related to pledged collateral; and
(b) a pledge of sixty five percent (65%) of the stock of its foreign subsidiaries listed on Schedule 1.5 attached hereto. All of the foregoing shall be evidenced by and subject to the terms of such security agreements, financing
statements, and other documents as Bank shall reasonably require, all in form and substance satisfactory to Bank. Borrower shall pay to Bank immediately upon demand the full amount of all charges, costs and expenses (to include fees paid to third
parties, including Bank’s reasonable attorney’s fees, and all allocated costs of Bank personnel, including Bank’s in-house counsel), expended or incurred by Bank in connection with any of the foregoing security, including without
limitation, filing and recording fees and costs of appraisals, audits and title insurance.

between Borrower and Bank with respect to each credit subject hereto and supersede all prior negotiations, communications, discussions and correspondence concerning the subject matter hereof. This Agreement may be amended or modified only in writing
signed by each party hereto. 
 7.6. NO THIRD PARTY BENEFICIARIES. This Agreement is made and entered into for the sole protection and
benefit of the parties hereto and their respective permitted successors and assigns, and no other person or entity shall be a third party beneficiary of, or have any direct or indirect cause of action or claim in connection with, this Agreement or
any other of the Loan Documents to which it is not a party. 
 7.7. TIME. Time is of the essence of each and every provision of this
Agreement and each other of the Loan Documents. 
 7.8. SEVERABILITY OF PROVISIONS. If any provision of this Agreement shall be prohibited by
or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity without invalidating the remainder of such provision or any remaining provisions of this Agreement. 
 7.9. COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when executed and delivered shall be deemed to be an
original, and all of which when taken together shall constitute one and the same Agreement. 
 7.10. GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement shall be
governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Washington. 
 7.11. ARBITRATION. 
 (a) Arbitration. The parties hereto agree, upon demand by any party, to submit to binding arbitration all claims, disputes and controversies
between or among them (and their respective employees, officers, directors, attorneys, and other agents), whether in tort, contract or otherwise in any way arising out of or relating to (i) any credit subject hereto, or any of the Loan
Documents, and their negotiation, execution, collateralization, administration, repayment, modification, extension, substitution, formation, inducement, enforcement, default or termination; or (ii) requests for additional credit. 
 (b) Governing Rules. Any arbitration proceeding will (i) proceed in a location in Washington selected by the American Arbitration Association
(“AAA”); (ii) be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (Title 9 of the United States Code), notwithstanding any conflicting choice of law provision in any of the documents between the parties; and (iii) be conducted by the AAA,
or such other administrator as the parties shall mutually agree upon, in accordance with the AAA’s commercial dispute resolution procedures, unless the claim or counterclaim is at least $1,000,000.00 exclusive of claimed interest, arbitration
fees and costs in which case the arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the 

 
AAA’s optional procedures for large, complex commercial disputes (the commercial dispute resolution procedures or the optional procedures for large,
complex commercial disputes to be referred to herein as applicable, as the “Rules”). If there is any inconsistency between the terms hereof and the Rules, the terms and procedures set forth herein shall control. Any party who fails or
refuses to submit to arbitration following a demand by any other party shall bear all costs and expenses incurred by such other party in compelling arbitration of any dispute. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to be a waiver by any party that
is a bank of the protections afforded to it under 12 U.S.C. §91 or any similar applicable state law. 
 (c) No Waiver of Provisional
Remedies, Self-Help and Foreclosure. The arbitration requirement does not limit the right of any party to (i) foreclose against real or personal property collateral; (ii) exercise self-help remedies relating to collateral or proceeds
of collateral such as setoff or repossession; or (iii) obtain provisional or ancillary remedies such as replevin, injunctive relief, attachment or the appointment of a receiver, before during or after the pendency of any arbitration proceeding.
This exclusion does not constitute a waiver of the right or obligation of any party to submit any dispute to arbitration or reference hereunder, including those arising from the exercise of the actions detailed in sections (i), (ii) and
(iii) of this paragraph. 
 (d) Arbitrator Qualifications and Powers. Any arbitration proceeding in which the amount in
controversy is $5,000,000.00 or less will be decided by a single arbitrator selected according to the Rules, and who shall not render an award of greater than $5,000,000.00. Any dispute in which the amount in controversy exceeds $5,000,000.00 shall
be decided by majority vote of a panel of three arbitrators; provided however, that all three arbitrators must actively participate in all hearings and deliberations. The arbitrator will be a neutral attorney licensed in the State of Washington or a
neutral retired judge of the state or federal judiciary of Washington, in either case with a minimum of ten years experience in the substantive law applicable to the subject matter of the dispute to be arbitrated. The arbitrator will determine
whether or not an issue is arbitratable and will give effect to the statutes of limitation in determining any claim. In any arbitration proceeding the arbitrator will decide (by documents only or with a hearing at the arbitrator’s discretion)
any pre-hearing motions which are similar to motions to dismiss for failure to state a claim or motions for summary adjudication. The arbitrator shall resolve all disputes in accordance with the substantive law of Washington and may grant any remedy
or relief that a court of such state could order or grant within the scope hereof and such ancillary relief as is necessary to make effective any award. The arbitrator shall also have the power to award recovery of all costs and fees, to impose
sanctions and to take such other action as the arbitrator deems necessary to the same extent a judge could pursuant to the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, the Washington Rules of Civil Procedure or other applicable law. Judgment upon the award
rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. The institution and maintenance of an action for judicial relief or pursuit of a provisional or ancillary remedy shall not constitute a waiver of the right of any party,
including the plaintiff, to submit the controversy or claim to arbitration if any other party contests such action for judicial relief. 
 (e) Discovery. In any arbitration proceeding, discovery will be permitted in accordance with the Rules. All discovery shall be expressly limited to matters directly relevant to the dispute being arbitrated and must be completed no
later than 20 days before the hearing date. Any requests for an extension of the discovery periods, or any discovery disputes, will be subject to final determination by the arbitrator upon a showing that the request for discovery is essential for
the party’s presentation and that no alternative means for obtaining information is available. 
 (f) Class Proceedings and
Consolidations. No party hereto shall be entitled to join or consolidate disputes by or against others in any arbitration, except parties who have executed any Loan Document, or to include in any arbitration any dispute as a representative or
member of a class, or to act in any arbitration in the interest of the general public or in a private attorney general capacity. 

 (g) Payment Of Arbitration Costs And Fees. The arbitrator shall award all costs and expenses of
the arbitration proceeding. 
 (h) Miscellaneous. To the maximum extent practicable, the AAA, the arbitrators and the parties shall
take all action required to conclude any arbitration proceeding within 180 days of the filing of the dispute with the AAA. No arbitrator or other party to an arbitration proceeding may disclose the existence, content or results thereof, except for
disclosures of information by a party required in the ordinary course of its business or by applicable law or regulation. If more than one agreement for arbitration by or between the parties potentially applies to a dispute, the arbitration
provision most directly related to the Loan Documents or the subject matter of the dispute shall control. This arbitration provision shall survive termination, amendment or expiration of any of the Loan Documents or any relationship between the
parties. 
 ORAL AGREEMENTS OR ORAL COMMITMENTS TO LOAN MONEY, EXTEND CREDIT OR TO FORBEAR ENFORCING REPAYMENT OF A DEBT ARE NOT ENFORCEABLE UNDER
WASHINGTON LAW. 
 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be executed as of the day and year first written
above.
