COMMON
STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT

 

SYLIOS
CORP

 

	Warrant
    Shares: 841,200 	Issuance
    Date: December 13, 2019

 

THIS
COMMON STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT (the “Warrant”) certifies that, for value received Armada Investment Fund, LLC
or its registered assigns (the “Holder”), with an address at: 7703 Springfield Lake Drive, Lake Worth, FL 33467, or
its assigns (the “Holder”) is entitled, upon the terms and subject to the limitations on exercise and the conditions
hereinafter set forth, at any time on or after the date hereof (the “Initial Exercise Date”) and on or prior
to the close of business on the fifth anniversary of the Issuance Date (the “Termination Date”) but not thereafter,
to subscribe for and purchase from Sylios Corp., a Florida corporation (the “Company”), up to 841,200 shares
(as subject to adjustment hereunder, the “Warrant Shares”) of Common Stock. The purchase price of one share
of Common Stock under this Warrant shall be equal to the Exercise Price, as defined in Section 2(b).

 

Section
1. Definitions. Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in that certain
Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”), dated December 13, 2019, among the Company and the
purchasers signatory thereto and the note issued to the Holder contemporaneously with this Warrant (the “Note”).

 

Section
2. Exercise.

 

(a)
Exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant may be made, in whole or in part, at any time or times on or after
the Initial Exercise Date and on or before the Termination Date by delivery to the Company (or such other office or agency of
the Company as it may designate by notice in writing to the registered Holder at the address of the Holder appearing on the books
of the Company) of a duly executed facsimile copy of the Notice of Exercise Form annexed hereto. Within two (2) Trading Days following
the date of exercise as aforesaid, the Holder shall deliver the aggregate Exercise Price for the shares specified in the applicable
Notice of Exercise by wire transfer or cashier’s check drawn on a United States bank unless the cashless exercise procedure
specified in Section 2(c) below is specified in the applicable Notice of Exercise. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary
(although the Holder may surrender the Warrant to, and receive a replacement Warrant from, the Company), the Holder shall not
be required to physically surrender this Warrant to the Company until the Holder has purchased all of the Warrant Shares available
hereunder and the Warrant has been exercised in full, in which case, the Holder shall surrender this Warrant to the Company for
cancellation within three (3) Trading Days of the date the final Notice of Exercise is delivered to the Company. Partial exercises
of this Warrant resulting in purchases of a portion of the total number of Warrant Shares available hereunder shall have the effect
of lowering the outstanding number of Warrant Shares purchasable hereunder in an amount equal to the applicable number of Warrant
Shares purchased. The Holder and the Company shall maintain records showing the number of Warrant Shares purchased and the date
of such purchases. The Company shall deliver any objection to any Notice of Exercise Form within one (1) Trading Day of delivery
of such notice. The Holder and any assignee, by acceptance of this Warrant, acknowledge and agree that, by reason of the provisions
of this paragraph, following the purchase of a portion of the Warrant Shares hereunder, the number of Warrant Shares available
for purchase hereunder at any given time may be less than the amount stated on the face hereof.

 

    	1

     

    

 

(b)
Exercise Price. The exercise price per share of the Common Stock under this Warrant shall be $0.024, subject to adjustment
as described herein (“Exercise Price”).

 

(c)
Cashless Exercise. If at any time after the Initial Exercise Date, there is no effective registration statement registering
the Warrant Shares, or no current prospectus available for the resale of the Warrant Shares by the Holder, then this Warrant may
also be exercised at the Holder’s election, in whole or in part, at such time by means of a “cashless exercise”
in which the Holder shall be entitled to receive a number of Warrant Shares equal to the quotient obtained by dividing [(A-B)
(X)] by (A), where:

 

	 	(A)	=	 the VWAP on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date on which Holder elects to exercise this Warrant by means of a “cashless
    exercise,” as set forth in the applicable Notice of Exercise;
	 	 	 	 
	 	(B)	=	
    the Exercise Price of this Warrant, as adjusted hereunder; and
	 	 	 	 
	 	(X)	=	the number of Warrant Shares that would be issuable upon exercise of this Warrant in accordance with the terms of this Warrant
    if such exercise were by means of a cash exercise rather than a cashless exercise.

 

Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, on the Termination Date, unless the Holder notifies the Company otherwise, if there is no effective
Registration Statement registering the Warrant Shares, or no current prospectus available for, the resale of the Warrant Shares
by the Holder, then this Warrant shall be automatically exercised via cashless exercise pursuant to this Section 2(c).

 

“VWAP”
means, for any date, the price determined by the first of the following clauses that applies: (a) if the Common Stock is then
listed or quoted on a Trading Market, the daily volume weighted average price of the Common Stock for such date (or the nearest
preceding date) on the Trading Market on which the Common Stock is then listed or quoted as reported by Bloomberg L.P. (based
on a Trading Day from 9:30 a.m. (New York City time) to 4:02 p.m. (New York City time)), (b) if any of the NASDAQ markets or exchanges
is not a Trading Market, the volume weighted average price of the Common Stock for such date (or the nearest preceding date) on
the OTC Bulletin Board, (c) if the Common Stock is not then listed or quoted for trading on the OTC Bulletin Board and if prices
for the Common Stock are then reported on the OTCQX, OTCQB or OTC Pink Marketplace maintained by the OTC Markets Group, Inc. (or
a similar organization or agency succeeding to its functions of reporting prices), the volume weighted average price of the Common
Stock on the first such facility (or a similar organization or agency succeeding to its functions of reporting prices), or (d)
in all other cases, the fair market value of a share of Common Stock as determined by an independent appraiser selected in good
faith by the Purchasers of a majority in interest of the Securities then outstanding and reasonably acceptable to the Company,
the fees and expenses of which shall be paid by the Company.

(d)
Mechanics of Exercise.

 

(i)
Delivery of Certificates Upon Exercise. Certificates for shares purchased hereunder shall be transmitted by the Transfer
Agent to the Holder by crediting the account of the Holder’s prime broker with The Depository Trust Company through its
Deposit or Withdrawal at Custodian system (“DWAC”) if the Company is then a participant in such system and
either (A) there is an effective registration statement permitting the issuance of the Warrant Shares to or resale of the Warrant
Shares by the Holder or (B) this Warrant is being exercised via cashless exercise and Rule 144 is available, and otherwise by
physical delivery to the address specified by the Holder in the Notice of Exercise by the date that is three (3) Trading Days
after the latest of (A) the delivery to the Company of the Notice of Exercise, (B) surrender of this Warrant (if required) and
(C) payment of the aggregate Exercise Price as set forth above (including by cashless exercise, if permitted) (such date, the
“Warrant Share Delivery Date”). The Warrant Shares shall be deemed to have been issued, and Holder or any other
person so designated to be named therein shall be deemed to have become a holder of record of such shares for all purposes, as
of the date the Warrant has been exercised, with payment to the Company of the Exercise Price (or by cashless exercise, if permitted)
and all taxes required to be paid by the Holder, if any, pursuant to Section 2(d)(vi) prior to the issuance of such shares, having
been paid. The Company understands that a delay in the delivery of the Warrant Shares after the Warrant Share Delivery Date could
result in economic loss to the Holder. As compensation to the Holder for such loss, the Company agrees to pay (as liquidated damages
and not as a penalty) to the Holder for late issuance of Warrant Shares upon exercise of this Warrant the proportionate amount
of $10 per Trading Day (increasing to $20 per Trading Day after the fifth (5th) Trading Day) after the Warrant Share
Delivery Date for each $1,000 of Exercise Price of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercised which are not timely delivered.
The Company shall pay any payments incurred under this Section in immediately available funds upon demand. Furthermore, in addition
to any other remedies which may be available to the Holder, in the event that the Company fails for any reason to effect delivery
of the Warrant Shares by the Warrant Share Delivery Date, the Holder may revoke all or part of the relevant Warrant exercise by
delivery of a notice to such effect to the Company, whereupon the Company and the Holder shall each be restored to their respective
positions immediately prior to the exercise of the relevant portion of this Warrant, except that the liquidated damages described
above shall be payable through the date notice of revocation or rescission is given to the Company.

 

(ii)
Delivery of New Warrants Upon Exercise. If this Warrant shall have been exercised in part, the Company shall, at the request
of a Holder and upon surrender of this Warrant certificate, at the time of delivery of the certificate or certificates representing
Warrant Shares, deliver to the Holder a new Warrant evidencing the rights of the Holder to purchase the unpurchased Warrant Shares
called for by this Warrant, which new Warrant shall in all other respects be identical with this Warrant.

 

(iii)
Rescission Rights. If the Company fails to cause the Transfer Agent to transmit to the Holder a certificate or the certificates
representing the Warrant Shares pursuant to Section 2(d)(i) by the Warrant Share Delivery Date, then the Holder will have the
right, at any time prior to issuance of such Warrant Shares, to rescind such exercise.

 

    	3

     

    

 

(iv)
Compensation for Buy-In on Failure to Timely Deliver Certificates Upon Exercise. In addition to any other rights available
to the Holder, if the Company fails to cause the Transfer Agent to transmit to the Holder a certificate or the certificates representing
the Warrant Shares pursuant to an exercise on or before the Warrant Share Delivery Date, and if after such date the Holder is
required by its broker to purchase (in an open market transaction or otherwise) or the Holder’s brokerage firm otherwise
purchases, shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of the Warrant Shares which the Holder anticipated
receiving upon such exercise (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall (A) pay in cash to the Holder the amount,
if any, by which (x) the Holder’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the shares of Common
Stock so purchased exceeds (y) the amount obtained by multiplying (1) the number of Warrant Shares that the Company was required
to deliver to the Holder in connection with the exercise at issue times (2) the price at which the sell order giving rise to such
purchase obligation was executed, and (B) at the option of the Holder, either reinstate the portion of the Warrant and equivalent
number of Warrant Shares for which such exercise was not honored (in which case such exercise shall be deemed rescinded) or deliver
to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock that would have been issued had the Company timely complied with its exercise
and delivery obligations hereunder. For example, if the Holder purchases Common Stock having a total purchase price of $11,000
to cover a Buy-In with respect to an attempted exercise of shares of Common Stock with an aggregate sale price giving rise to
such purchase obligation of $10,000, under clause (A) of the immediately preceding sentence the Company shall be required to pay
the Holder $1,000. The Holder shall provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts payable to the Holder in respect
of the Buy-In and, upon request of the Company, evidence of the amount of such loss. Nothing herein shall limit a Holder’s
right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific
performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company’s failure to timely deliver certificates representing shares
of Common Stock upon exercise of the Warrant as required pursuant to the terms hereof.

 

(v)
No Fractional Shares or Scrip. No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise
of this Warrant. As to any fraction of a share which the Holder would otherwise be entitled to purchase upon such exercise, the
Company shall, at its election, either pay a cash adjustment in respect of such final fraction in an amount equal to such fraction
multiplied by the Exercise Price or round up to the next whole share.

 

(vi)
Charges, Taxes and Expenses. Issuance of certificates for Warrant Shares shall be made without charge to the Holder for
any issue or transfer tax or other incidental expense in respect of the issuance of such certificate, all of which taxes and expenses
shall be paid by the Company, and such certificates shall be issued in the name of the Holder or in such name or names as may
be directed by the Holder; provided, however, that in the event certificates for Warrant Shares are to be issued
in a name other than the name of the Holder, this Warrant when surrendered for exercise shall be accompanied by the Assignment
Form attached hereto duly executed by the Holder and the Company may require, as a condition thereto, the payment of a sum sufficient
to reimburse it for any transfer tax incidental thereto. The Company shall pay all Transfer Agent fees required for same-day processing
of any Notice of Exercise.

 

(vii)
Closing of Books. The Company will not close its stockholder books or records in any manner which prevents the timely exercise
of this Warrant, pursuant to the terms hereof.

(e)
Holder’s Exercise Limitations. the Company shall not effect any exercise of this Warrant, and a Holder shall not
have the right to exercise any portion of this Warrant, pursuant to Section 2 or otherwise, to the extent that after giving effect
to such issuance after exercise as set forth on the applicable Notice of Exercise, the Holder (together with the Holder’s
Affiliates, and any other Persons acting as a group together with the Holder or any of the Holder’s Affiliates), would beneficially
own in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation (as defined below). For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the number of
shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its Affiliates shall include the number of shares of Common Stock
issuable upon exercise of this Warrant with respect to which such determination is being made, but shall exclude the number of
shares of Common Stock which would be issuable upon (i) exercise of the remaining, nonexercised portion of this Warrant beneficially
owned by the Holder or any of its Affiliates and (ii) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or nonconverted portion of any
other securities of the Company (including, without limitation, any other Common Stock Equivalents) subject to a limitation on
conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its Affiliates.
Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this Section 2(e), beneficial ownership shall be calculated in
accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, it being acknowledged
by the Holder that the Company is not representing to the Holder that such calculation is in compliance with Section 13(d) of
the Exchange Act and the Holder is solely responsible for any schedules required to be filed in accordance therewith. To the extent
that the limitation contained in this Section 2(e) applies, the determination of whether this Warrant is exercisable (in relation
to other securities owned by the Holder together with any Affiliates) and of which portion of this Warrant is exercisable shall
be in the sole discretion of the Holder, and the submission of a Notice of Exercise shall be deemed to be the Holder’s determination
of whether this Warrant is exercisable (in relation to other securities owned by the Holder together with any Affiliates) and
of which portion of this Warrant is exercisable, in each case subject to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, and the Company
shall have no obligation to verify or confirm the accuracy of such determination. In addition, a determination as to any group
status as contemplated above shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations
promulgated thereunder. For purposes of this Section 2(e), in determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, a
Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as reflected in (A) the Company’s most recent periodic
or annual report filed with the Commission, as the case may be, (B) a more recent public announcement by the Company or (C) a
more recent written notice by the Company or the Transfer Agent setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding.
Upon the written or oral request of a Holder, the Company shall within two Trading Days confirm orally and in writing to the Holder
the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be
determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Company, including this Warrant, by the Holder
or its Affiliates since the date as of which such number of outstanding shares of Common Stock was reported. The “Beneficial
Ownership Limitation” shall be 4.99% of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving
effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant. The Holder may decrease the Beneficial
Ownership Limitation at any time and the Holder, upon not less than 61 days’ prior notice to the Company, may increase the
Beneficial Ownership Limitation provisions of this Section 2(e), provided that the Beneficial Ownership Limitation in no event
exceeds 9.99% of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares
of Common Stock upon exercise of this Warrant held by the Holder and the provisions of this Section 2(e) shall continue to apply.
Any such increase will not be effective until the 61st day after such notice is delivered to the Company. The provisions
of this paragraph shall be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms of this Section
2(e) to correct this paragraph (or any portion hereof) which may be defective or inconsistent with the intended Beneficial Ownership
Limitation herein contained or to make changes or supplements necessary or desirable to properly give effect to such limitation.
The limitations contained in this paragraph shall apply to a successor holder of this Warrant.

Section
3. Certain Adjustments.

 

(a)
Stock Dividends and Splits. If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding: (i) pays a stock dividend or
otherwise makes a distribution or distributions on shares of its Common Stock or any other equity or equity equivalent securities
payable in shares of Common Stock (which, for avoidance of doubt, shall not include any shares of Common Stock issued by the Company
upon exercise of this Warrant or pursuant to any of the other Transaction Documents), (ii) subdivides outstanding shares of Common
Stock into a larger number of shares, (iii) combines (including by way of reverse stock split) outstanding shares of Common Stock
into a smaller number of shares, or (iv) issues by reclassification of shares of the Common Stock any shares of capital stock
of the Company, then in each case the Exercise Price shall be multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number
of shares of Common Stock (excluding treasury shares, if any) outstanding immediately before such event and of which the denominator
shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event, and the number of shares issuable upon
exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately adjusted such that the aggregate Exercise Price of this Warrant shall remain
unchanged. Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 3(a) shall become effective immediately after the record date for the
determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution and shall become effective immediately after the
effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination or re-classification.

 

(b)
Pro Rata Distributions. If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, shall distribute to all holders
of Common Stock (and not to the Holder) evidences of its indebtedness or assets (including cash and cash dividends) or rights
or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any security other than the Common Stock (which shall be subject to Section 3(c)), then
in each such case the Exercise Price shall be adjusted by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the record
date fixed for determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution by a fraction of which the denominator shall
be the VWAP determined as of the record date mentioned above, and of which the numerator shall be such VWAP on such record date
less the then per share fair market value at such record date of the portion of such assets or evidence of indebtedness so distributed
applicable to one outstanding share of the Common Stock as determined by the Board of Directors in good faith. In either case
the adjustments shall be described in a statement provided to the Holder of the portion of assets or evidences of indebtedness
so distributed or such subscription rights applicable to one share of Common Stock. Such adjustment shall be made whenever any
such distribution is made and shall become effective immediately after the record date mentioned above.

 

    	6

     

    

 

(c)
Fundamental Transaction. If, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, (i) the Company, directly or indirectly, in
one or more related transactions effects any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another Person, (ii) the Company,
directly or indirectly, effects any sale, lease, license, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially
all of its assets in one or a series of related transactions, (iii) any, direct or indirect, purchase offer, tender offer or exchange
offer (whether by the Company or another Person) is completed pursuant to which holders of Common Stock are permitted to sell,
tender or exchange their shares for other securities, cash or property and has been accepted by the holders of 50% or more of
the outstanding Common Stock, (iv) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions effects any reclassification,
reorganization or recapitalization of the Common Stock or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the Common Stock is
effectively converted into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property, or (v) the Company, directly or indirectly, in
one or more related transactions consummates a stock or share purchase agreement or other business combination (including, without
limitation, a reorganization, recapitalization, spin-off or scheme of arrangement) with another Person or group of Persons whereby
such other Person or group acquires more than 50% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (not including any shares of Common
Stock held by the other Person or other Persons making or party to, or associated or affiliated with the other Persons making
or party to, such stock or share purchase agreement or other business combination) (each a “Fundamental Transaction”),
then, upon any subsequent exercise of this Warrant, the Holder shall have the right to receive, for each Warrant Share that would
have been issuable upon such exercise immediately prior to the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction, at the option of the
Holder (without regard to any limitation in Section 2(e) on the exercise of this Warrant), the number of shares of Common Stock
of the successor or acquiring corporation or of the Company, if it is the surviving corporation, and any additional consideration
(the “Alternate Consideration”) receivable as a result of such Fundamental Transaction by a holder of the number
of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction (without regard
to any limitation in Section 2(e) on the exercise of this Warrant). For purposes of any such exercise, the determination of the
Exercise Price shall be appropriately adjusted to apply to such Alternate Consideration based on the amount of Alternate Consideration
issuable in respect of one share of Common Stock in such Fundamental Transaction, and the Company shall apportion the Exercise
Price among the Alternate Consideration in a reasonable manner reflecting the relative value of any different components of the
Alternate Consideration. If holders of Common Stock are given any choice as to the securities, cash or property to be received
in a Fundamental Transaction, then the Holder shall be given the same choice as to the Alternate Consideration it receives upon
any exercise of this Warrant following such Fundamental Transaction. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, in the event of
a Fundamental Transaction, the Company or any Successor Entity (as defined below) shall, at the Holder’s option, exercisable
at any time concurrently with, or within 30 days after, the consummation of the Fundamental Transaction, purchase this Warrant
from the Holder by paying to the Holder an amount of cash equal to the Black Scholes Value of the remaining unexercised portion
of this Warrant on the date of the consummation of such Fundamental Transaction. “Black Scholes Value” means
the value of this Warrant based on the Black and Scholes Option Pricing Model obtained from the “OV” function on Bloomberg,
L.P. (“Bloomberg”) determined as of the day of consummation of the applicable Fundamental Transaction for pricing
purposes and reflecting (A) a risk-free interest rate corresponding to the U.S. Treasury rate for a period equal to the time between
the date of the public announcement of the applicable Fundamental Transaction and the Termination Date, (B) an expected volatility
equal to the greater of 100% and the 100 day volatility obtained from the HVT function on Bloomberg as of the Trading Day immediately
following the public announcement of the applicable Fundamental Transaction, (C) the underlying price per share used in such calculation
shall be the sum of the price per share being offered in cash, if any, plus the value of any non-cash consideration, if any, being
offered in such Fundamental Transaction and (D) a remaining option time equal to the time between the date of the public announcement
of the applicable Fundamental Transaction and the Termination Date. The Company shall cause any successor entity in a Fundamental
Transaction in which the Company is not the survivor (the “Successor Entity”) to assume in writing all of the
obligations of the Company under this Warrant and the other Transaction Documents in accordance with the provisions of this Section
3(e) pursuant to written agreements in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Holder and approved by the Holder (without
unreasonable delay) prior to such Fundamental Transaction and shall, at the option of the Holder, deliver to the Holder in exchange
for this Warrant a security of the Successor Entity evidenced by a written instrument substantially similar in form and substance
to this Warrant which is exercisable for a corresponding number of shares of capital stock of such Successor Entity (or its parent
entity) equivalent to the shares of Common Stock acquirable and receivable upon exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any
limitations on the exercise of this Warrant) prior to such Fundamental Transaction, and with an exercise price which applies the
exercise price hereunder to such shares of capital stock (but taking into account the relative value of the shares of Common Stock
pursuant to such Fundamental Transaction and the value of such shares of capital stock, such number of shares of capital stock
and such exercise price being for the purpose of protecting the economic value of this Warrant immediately prior to the consummation
of such Fundamental Transaction), and which is reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Holder. Upon the occurrence
of any such Fundamental Transaction, the Successor Entity shall succeed to, and be substituted for (so that from and after the
date of such Fundamental Transaction, the provisions of this Warrant and the other Transaction Documents referring to the “Company”
shall refer instead to the Successor Entity), and may exercise every right and power of the Company and shall assume all of the
obligations of the Company under this Warrant and the other Transaction Documents with the same effect as if such Successor Entity
had been named as the Company herein.

(d)
Adjustment Upon Issuance of Shares of Common Stock. If and whenever on or after the date hereof, the Company issues or
sells, or in accordance with this Section 3 is deemed to have issued or sold, any shares of Common Stock (including the issuance
or sale of shares of Common Stock owned or held by or for the account of the Company, but excluding any Exempt Issuance issued
or sold or deemed to have been issued or sold) for a consideration per share (the “New Issuance Price”) less
than a price equal to the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such issue or sale or deemed issuance or sale (such Exercise
Price then in effect is referred to as the “Applicable Price”) (the foregoing a “Dilutive Issuance”),
then immediately after such Dilutive Issuance, the Exercise Price then in effect shall be reduced to the New Issuance Price. For
all purposes of the foregoing (including, without limitation, determining the adjusted Exercise Price and consideration per share
under this Section 3(e)), the following shall be applicable:

 

(i)
Issuance of Options. If the Company in any manner grants or sells any options (other than options that qualify as Exempt Issuances)
and the lowest price per share for which one share of Common Stock is issuable upon the exercise of any such option or upon conversion,
exercise or exchange of any Common Stock Equivalents issuable upon exercise of any such option is less than the Applicable Price,
then such share of Common Stock shall be deemed to be outstanding and to have been issued and sold by the Company at the time
of the granting or sale of such option for such price per share. For purposes of this Section 3(e)(i), the “lowest price
per share for which one share of Common Stock is issuable upon the exercise of any such options or upon conversion, exercise or
exchange of any Common Stock Equivalents issuable upon exercise of any such option” shall be equal to (1) the lower of (x)
the sum of the lowest amounts of consideration (if any) received or receivable by the Company with respect to any one share of
Common Stock upon the granting or sale of such option, upon exercise of such option and upon conversion, exercise or exchange
of any Common Stock Equivalent issuable upon exercise of such option and (y) the lowest exercise price set forth in such option
for which one share of Common Stock is issuable upon the exercise of any such options or upon conversion, exercise or exchange
of any Common Stock Equivalents issuable upon exercise of any such option minus (2) the sum of all amounts paid or payable to
the holder of such option (or any other Person) upon the granting or sale of such option, upon exercise of such Option and upon
conversion, exercise or exchange of any Common Stock Equivalent issuable upon exercise of such option plus the value of any other
consideration received or receivable by, or benefit conferred on, the holder of such option (or any other Person). Except as contemplated
below, no further adjustment of the Exercise Price shall be made upon the actual issuance of such shares of Common Stock or of
such Common Stock Equivalents upon the exercise of such options or upon the actual issuance of such shares of Common Stock upon
conversion, exercise or exchange of such Common Stock Equivalents.

 

    	8

     

    

 

(ii)
Issuance of Common Stock Equivalents. If the Company in any manner issues or sells any Common Stock Equivalents (other than Common
Stock Equivalents that qualify as Exempt Issuances) and the lowest price per share for which one share of Common Stock is issuable
upon the conversion, exercise or exchange thereof is less than the Applicable Price, then such share of Common Stock shall be
deemed to be outstanding and to have been issued and sold by the Company at the time of the issuance or sale of such Common Stock
Equivalents for such price per share. For the purposes of this Section 3(e)(ii), the “lowest price per share for which one
share of Common Stock is issuable upon the conversion, exercise or exchange thereof” shall be equal to (1) the lower of
(x) the sum of the lowest amounts of consideration (if any) received or receivable by the Company with respect to one share of
Common Stock upon the issuance or sale of the Common Stock Equivalent and upon conversion, exercise or exchange of such Common
Stock Equivalent and (y) the lowest conversion price set forth in such Common Stock Equivalent for which one share of Common Stock
is issuable upon conversion, exercise or exchange thereof minus (2) the sum of all amounts paid or payable to the holder of such
Common Stock Equivalent (or any other Person) upon the issuance or sale of such Common Stock Equivalent plus the value of any
other consideration received or receivable by, or benefit conferred on, the holder of such Common Stock Equivalent (or any other
Person). Except as contemplated below, no further adjustment of the Exercise Price shall be made upon the actual issuance of such
shares of Common Stock upon conversion, exercise or exchange of such Common Stock Equivalents, and if any such issue or sale of
such Common Stock Equivalents is made upon exercise of any options for which adjustment of this Note has been or is to be made
pursuant to other provisions of this Section 3(e), except as contemplated below, no further adjustment of the Exercise Price shall
be made by reason of such issue or sale.

 

(iii)
Change in Option Price or Rate of Conversion. If the purchase or exercise price provided for in any options, the additional consideration,
if any, payable upon the issue, conversion, exercise or exchange of any Common Stock Equivalents, or the rate at which any Common
Stock Equivalents are convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for shares of Common Stock increases or decreases at any
time, the Exercise Price in effect at the time of such increase or decrease shall be adjusted to the Exercise Price which would
have been in effect at such time had such options or Common Stock Equivalents provided for such increased or decreased purchase
price, additional consideration or increased or decreased conversion rate, as the case may be, at the time initially granted,
issued or sold. For purposes of this Section 3(e)(iii), if the terms of any option or Common Stock Equivalent that was outstanding
as of the date of issuance of this Note are increased or decreased in the manner described in the immediately preceding sentence,
then such option or Common Stock Equivalent and the shares of Common Stock deemed issuable upon exercise, conversion or exchange
thereof shall be deemed to have been issued as of the date of such increase or decrease. No adjustment pursuant to this Section
3(e) shall be made if such adjustment would result in an increase of the Exercise Price then in effect.

(iv)
Calculation of Consideration Received. If any option and/or Common Stock Equivalent and/or Adjustment Right is issued in connection
with the issuance or sale or deemed issuance or sale of any other securities of the Company (as determined by the Holder, the
“Primary Security”, and such option and/or Common Stock Equivalent and/or Adjustment Right, the “Secondary Securities”),
together comprising one integrated transaction, the consideration per share of Common Stock with respect to such Primary Security
shall be deemed to be equal to the difference of (x) the lowest price per share for which one share of Common Stock was issued
in such integrated transaction (or was deemed to be issued pursuant to Section 3(e)(i) or 3(e)(ii) above, as applicable) solely
with respect to such Primary Security, minus (y) with respect to such Secondary Securities, the sum of (I) the Black Scholes Consideration
Value of each such option, if any, (II) the fair market value (as determined by the Holder) or the Black Scholes Consideration
Value, as applicable, of such Adjustment Right, if any, and (III) the fair market value (as determined by the Holder) of such
Common Stock Equivalent, if any, in each case, as determined on a per share basis in accordance with this Section 3(e)(iv). If
any shares of Common Stock, options or Common Stock Equivalents are issued or sold or deemed to have been issued or sold for cash,
the consideration received therefor (for the purpose of determining the consideration paid for such Common Stock, option or Common
Stock Equivalent, but not for the purpose of the calculation of the Black Scholes Consideration Value) will be deemed to be the
net amount of consideration received by the Company therefor. If any shares of Common Stock, options or Common Stock Equivalents
are issued or sold for a consideration other than cash (for the purpose of determining the consideration paid for such Common
Stock, option or Common Stock Equivalent, but not for the purpose of the calculation of the Black Scholes Consideration Value),
the amount of such consideration received by the Company will be the fair value of such consideration, except where such consideration
consists of publicly traded securities, in which case the amount of consideration received by the Company for such securities
will be the arithmetic average of the VWAPs of such security for each of the five (5) Trading Days immediately preceding the date
of receipt. If any shares of Common Stock, options or Common Stock Equivalents are issued to the owners of the non-surviving entity
in connection with any merger in which the Company is the surviving entity (for the purpose of determining the consideration paid
for such Common Stock, option or Common Stock Equivalent, but not for the purpose of the calculation of the Black Scholes Consideration
Value), the amount of consideration therefor will be deemed to be the fair value of such portion of the net assets and business
of the non-surviving entity as is attributable to such shares of Common Stock, options or Common Stock Equivalents, as the case
may be. The fair value of any consideration other than cash or publicly traded securities (for the purpose of determining the
consideration paid for such Common Stock, option or Common Stock Equivalent, but not for the purpose of the calculation of the
Black Scholes Consideration Value) will be determined jointly by the Company and the Holder. If such parties are unable to reach
agreement within ten (10) days after the occurrence of an event requiring valuation (the “Valuation Event”), the fair
value of such consideration will be determined within five (5) Trading Days after the tenth (10th) day following such Valuation
Event by an independent, reputable appraiser jointly selected by the Company and the Holder. The determination of such appraiser
shall be final and binding upon all parties absent manifest error and the fees and expenses of such appraiser shall be borne by
the Company.

 

(e)
Subsequent Rights Offerings. In addition to any adjustments pursuant to Section 3(a) above, if at any time the Company
grants, issues or sells any Common Stock Equivalents or rights to purchase stock, warrants, securities or other property pro rata
to the record holders of any class of shares of Common Stock (the “Purchase Rights”), then the Holder will be entitled
to acquire, upon the terms applicable to such Purchase Rights, the aggregate Purchase Rights which the Holder could have acquired
if the Holder had held the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable upon complete exercise of this Warrant (without regard
to any limitations on exercise hereof, including without limitation, the Beneficial Ownership Limitation) immediately before the
date on which a record is taken for the grant, issuance or sale of such Purchase Rights, or, if no such record is taken, the date
as of which the record holders of shares of Common Stock are to be determined for the grant, issue or sale of such Purchase Rights
(provided, however, to the extent that the Holder’s right to participate in any such Purchase Right would result in the
Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, then the Holder shall not be entitled to participate in such Purchase Right
to such extent (or beneficial ownership of such shares of Common Stock as a result of such Purchase Right to such extent) and
such Purchase Right to such extent shall be held in abeyance for the Holder until such time, if ever, as its right thereto would
not result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation).

 

(f)
Notice to Holder.

 

(i)
Adjustment to Exercise Price. Whenever the Exercise Price is adjusted pursuant to any provision of this Section 3, the
Company shall promptly mail to the Holder a notice setting forth the Exercise Price after such adjustment and any resulting adjustment
to the number of Warrant Shares and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment.

 

    	10

     

    

 

(ii)
Notice to Allow Exercise by Holder. If (A) the Company shall declare a dividend (or any other distribution in whatever
form) on the Common Stock, (B) the Company shall declare a special nonrecurring cash dividend on or a redemption of the Common
Stock, (C) the Company shall authorize the granting to all holders of the Common Stock rights or warrants to subscribe for or
purchase any shares of capital stock of any class or of any rights, (D) the approval of any stockholders of the Company shall
be required in connection with any reclassification of the Common Stock, any consolidation or merger to which the Company is a
party, any sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, or any compulsory share exchange whereby
the Common Stock is converted into other securities, or (E) the Company shall authorize the voluntary or involuntary dissolution,
liquidation or winding up of the affairs of the Company, then, in each case, to the extent that such information constitutes material
non-public information (as determined in good faith by the Company) the Company shall follow the procedure described in Section
13 of the Subscription Agreement and shall deliver to the Holder at its last address as it shall appear upon the Warrant Register
of the Company, at least 20 calendar days prior to the applicable record or effective date hereinafter specified, a notice stating
(x) the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution, redemption, rights or warrants,
or if a record is not to be taken, the date as of which the holders of the Common Stock of record to be entitled to such dividend,
distributions, redemption, rights or warrants are to be determined or (y) the date on which such reclassification, consolidation,
merger, sale, transfer or share exchange is expected to become effective or close, and the date as of which it is expected that
holders of the Common Stock of record shall be entitled to exchange their shares of the Common Stock for securities, cash or other
property deliverable upon such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange; provided that the failure
to mail such notice or any defect therein or in the mailing thereof shall not affect the validity of the corporate action required
to be specified in such notice. To the extent that any notice provided hereunder constitutes, or contains, material, non-public
information regarding the Company or any of the Subsidiaries, the Company shall simultaneously file such notice with the Commission
pursuant to a Current Report on Form 8-K. The Holder shall remain entitled to exercise this Warrant during the period commencing
on the date of such notice to the effective date of the event triggering such notice except as may otherwise be expressly set
forth herein.

 

i)
Increase in Warrant Shares. In the event the Exercise Price is reduced for any reason, including but not limited to pursuant
to Section 3(e) and 3(f) of this Warrant the number of Warrant Shares issuable hereunder shall be increased such that the aggregate
Exercise Price payable hereunder, after taking into account the decrease in the Exercise Price, shall be equal to the aggregate
Exercise Price prior to such adjustment.

 

Section
4. Transfer of Warrant.

 

(a)
Transferability. Subject to compliance with any applicable securities laws and the provisions of the Purchase Agreement,
this Warrant and all rights hereunder (including, without limitation, any registration rights) are transferable, in whole or in
part, upon surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Company or its designated agent, together with a written assignment
of this Warrant substantially in the form attached hereto duly executed by the Holder or its agent or attorney and funds sufficient
to pay any transfer taxes payable upon the making of such transfer. Upon such surrender and, if required, such payment, the Company
shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in the name of the assignee or assignees, as applicable, and in the denomination
or denominations specified in such instrument of assignment, and shall issue to the assignor a new Warrant evidencing the portion
of this Warrant not so assigned, and this Warrant shall promptly be cancelled. The Warrant, if properly assigned in accordance
herewith, may be exercised by a new holder for the purchase of Warrant Shares without having a new Warrant issued.

 

    	11

     

    

 

(b)
New Warrants. This Warrant may be divided or combined with other Warrants upon presentation hereof at the aforesaid office
of the Company, together with a written notice specifying the names and denominations in which new Warrants are to be issued,
signed by the Holder or its agent or attorney. Subject to compliance with Section 4(a), as to any transfer which may be involved
in such division or combination, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in exchange for the Warrant or
Warrants to be divided or combined in accordance with such notice. All Warrants issued on transfers or exchanges shall be dated
the initial issuance date of this Warrant and shall be identical with this Warrant except as to the number of Warrant Shares issuable
pursuant thereto.

 

(c)
Warrant Register. The Company shall register this Warrant, upon records to be maintained by the Company for that purpose
(the “Warrant Register”), in the name of the record Holder hereof from time to time. The Company may deem and
treat the registered Holder of this Warrant as the absolute owner hereof for the purpose of any exercise hereof or any distribution
to the Holder, and for all other purposes, absent actual notice to the contrary.

 

Section
5. Miscellaneous.

 

(a)
No Rights as Stockholder Until Exercise. This Warrant does not entitle the Holder to any voting rights, dividends or other
rights as a stockholder of the Company prior to the exercise hereof as set forth in Section 2(d)(i).

 

(b)
Loss, Theft, Destruction or Mutilation of Warrant. The Company covenants that upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably
satisfactory to it of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant or any stock certificate relating to the Warrant
Shares, and in case of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to it (which, in the case
of the Warrant, shall not include the posting of any bond), and upon surrender and cancellation of such Warrant or stock certificate,
if mutilated, the Company will make and deliver a new Warrant or stock certificate of like tenor and dated as of such cancellation,
in lieu of such Warrant or stock certificate.

 

(c)
Saturdays, Sundays, Holidays, etc. If the last or appointed day for the taking of any action or the expiration of any right
required or granted herein shall not be a Trading Day, then, such action may be taken or such right may be exercised on the next
succeeding Trading Day.

 

(d)
Authorized Shares. The Company covenants that, during the period the Warrant is outstanding, it will reserve from its authorized
and unissued Common Stock a sufficient number of shares to provide for the issuance of the Warrant Shares upon the exercise of
any purchase rights under this Warrant. The Company further covenants that its issuance of this Warrant shall constitute full
authority to its officers who are charged with the duty of executing stock certificates to execute and issue the necessary certificates
for the Warrant Shares upon the exercise of the purchase rights under this Warrant. The Company will take all such reasonable
action as may be necessary to assure that such Warrant Shares may be issued as provided herein without violation of any applicable
law or regulation, or of any requirements of the Trading Market upon which the Common Stock may be listed. The Company covenants
that all Warrant Shares which may be issued upon the exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant will, upon exercise
of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant and payment for such Warrant Shares in accordance herewith, be duly authorized,
validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges created by the Company in respect of
the issue thereof (other than taxes in respect of any transfer occurring contemporaneously with such issue). Except and to the
extent as waived or consented to by the Holder, the Company shall not by any action, including, without limitation, amending its
certificate of incorporation or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale
of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this
Warrant, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such actions
as may be necessary or appropriate to protect the rights of Holder as set forth in this Warrant against impairment. Without limiting
the generality of the foregoing, the Company will (i) not increase the par value of any Warrant Shares above the amount payable
therefor upon such exercise immediately prior to such increase in par value, (ii) take all such action as may be necessary or
appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable Warrant Shares upon the exercise
of this Warrant and (iii) use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all such authorizations, exemptions or consents from any
public regulatory body having jurisdiction thereof, as may be, necessary to enable the Company to perform its obligations under
this Warrant. Before taking any action which would result in an adjustment in the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant
is exercisable or in the Exercise Price, the Company shall obtain all such authorizations or exemptions thereof, or consents thereto,
as may be necessary from any public regulatory body or bodies having jurisdiction thereof.

 

    	12

     

    

 

(e)
Jurisdiction. All questions concerning governing law, jurisdiction, venue and the construction, validity, enforcement and
interpretation of this Warrant shall be determined in accordance with the provisions of the Purchase Agreement.

 

(f)
Restrictions. The Holder acknowledges that the Warrant Shares acquired upon the exercise of this Warrant, if not registered,
or unless exercised in a cashless exercise when Rule 144 is available, and the Holder does not utilize cashless exercise, will
have restrictions upon resale imposed by state and federal securities laws.

 

(g)
Non-waiver and Expenses. No course of dealing or any delay or failure to exercise any right hereunder on the part of Holder
shall operate as a waiver of such right or otherwise prejudice the Holder’s rights, powers or remedies. Without limiting
any other provision of this Warrant or the Purchase Agreement, if the Company willfully and knowingly fails to comply with any
provision of this Warrant, which results in any material damages to the Holder, the Company shall pay to the Holder such amounts
as shall be sufficient to cover any costs and expenses including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees, including
those of appellate proceedings, incurred by the Holder in collecting any amounts due pursuant hereto or in otherwise enforcing
any of its rights, powers or remedies hereunder.

 

(h)
Notices. Any notice, request or other document required or permitted to be given or delivered to the Holder by the Company
shall be delivered in accordance with the notice provisions of the Purchase Agreement.

 

(i)
Limitation of Liability. No provision hereof, in the absence of any affirmative action by the Holder to exercise this Warrant
to purchase Warrant Shares, and no enumeration herein of the rights or privileges of the Holder, shall give rise to any liability
of the Holder for the purchase price of any Common Stock or as a stockholder of the Company, whether such liability is asserted
by the Company or by creditors of the Company.

 

(j)
Remedies. The Holder, in addition to being entitled to exercise all rights granted by law, including recovery of damages,
will be entitled to specific performance of its rights under this Warrant. The Company agrees that monetary damages would not
be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of a breach by it of the provisions of this Warrant and hereby agrees
to waive and not to assert the defense in any action for specific performance that a remedy at law would be adequate.

 

(k)
Successors and Assigns. Subject to applicable securities laws, this Warrant and the rights and obligations evidenced hereby
shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the successors and permitted assigns of the Company and the successors and permitted
assigns of Holder. The provisions of this Warrant are intended to be for the benefit of any Holder from time to time of this Warrant
and shall be enforceable by the Holder or holder of Warrant Shares.

 

(l)
Amendment. This Warrant may be modified or amended or the provisions hereof waived with the written consent of the Company
and the Holders of not less than a majority of the outstanding Warrants issued pursuant to the Purchase Agreement.

 

(m)
Severability. Wherever possible, each provision of this Warrant shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective
and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Warrant shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such
provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provisions
or the remaining provisions of this Warrant.

 

(n)
Headings. The headings used in this Warrant are for the convenience of reference only and shall not, for any purpose, be
deemed a part of this Warrant.

methodology of calculating Reserves, or (C) Agent establishes new categories of sublimits in the Borrowing Base. The foregoing notwithstanding, in the event Agent establishes Reserves to preserve or protect or maximize the value of the

 (iii) fifteen percent (15%) of the Net Recovery Percentage
multiplied by the Value of the Eligible Inventory of the Borrowers at such time, plus 
 (iv) subject to Post-Closing Appraisals and
adjustment pursuant to the next succeeding paragraph up to fifty (50%) of the Net Recovery Percentage multiplied by the Value of the Eligible Equipment of the Borrowers at such time, minus 

(v) the Reserves. 
 The actual
advance rate percentages to be used in calculating the amounts pursuant to clause (b)(iv) above, which advance rate percentages shall not exceed the applicable maximum percentage as set forth in such clauses, shall be determined by Agent in
its Permitted Discretion. For purposes of clarity, upon receipt of the Post-Closing Appraisals, the advance rates set forth in clause (b)(iv) above shall be adjusted and reset upon 1 days notice by Agent to Administrative Borrower to reflect
the results of such appraisals. Once the applicable advance rate percentage has been established by Agent, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Agent shall give to the Administrative Borrower five (5) Business
Days’ telephonic or electronic notice of any change in such advance rate percentage.

 SECTION 2. CREDIT
FACILITIES 
 2.1 Term Loan. 

(a) Subject to and upon the terms and conditions contained herein, each Lender severally (and not jointly) agrees to make a term loan to the
Borrowers (such loans, collectively, the “Term Loan”) on the Closing Date in an aggregate principal amount equal to the lesser of (x) such Lender’s Term Loan Commitment and (y) such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the
Borrowing Base as of such date (based upon the Borrowing Base Certificate delivered by the Administrative Borrower to Agent on the Closing Date). The execution and delivery of this Agreement by Borrowers and the satisfaction of, or waiver of, the
conditions precedent set forth in Section 4 shall be deemed to constitute Borrowers’ request to borrow the Term Loan on the Closing Date. Upon such Lender’s making of its portion of the Term Loan, the Term Loan
Commitment of such Lender shall be terminated automatically in full. Any portion of the Term Loan repaid or prepaid may not be reborrowed. 

(b) To the extent that any facts or circumstances (i) have led to Agent establishing a Reserve pursuant to one provision of this
Agreement, Agent shall not establish any Reserves based on the same such facts or circumstances pursuant to any other provision of this Agreement, and (ii) were taken into account in calculating any component of the Borrowing Base or Borrowing
Base II, as applicable, Agent shall not establish any Reserves based on the same such facts or circumstances. 
 (c) Subject to the payment
of any applicable Early Termination Fee, on the date of delivery of any Borrowing Base Certificate, if the Term Loan Outstandings at any time exceed the Borrowing Cap, then the Agent shall instruct the ABL Agent (with notice to the Borrower) in
writing to immediately implement the Push Down Reserve (as defined in this Agreement) under the ABL Credit Agreement; provided that if the ABL Agent refuses to implement the Push Down Reserve in full under the ABL Credit Agreement (including,
without limitation, due to ABL Excess Availability being insufficient) within three (3) Business Days after receipt of such instruction, Borrowers shall immediately repay to Agent the entire amount (less the amount of any Push Down Reserve
implemented) of any such excess of the Term Loan Outstandings over the Borrowing Cap plus any accrued, unpaid interest and fees payable thereon. 

  
 54 

 (d) If at any point after March 28, 2020 the Borrowing Base II Period is no longer
applicable, at Agent’s election, the Agent may implement either (a) a Push Down Reserve pursuant to Section 2.1(d) of an amount by which the Term Loan Outstandings exceed Borrowing Base II or (b) apply Section 2.2(a)
requiring the payments required therein. For purposes herein, “Borrowing Base II Period” shall mean the period beginning on the first day of any fiscal quarter after which the Term Loan Outstandings equal or are less than the lesser
of (x) $25,000,000 and (y) the then amount of Borrowing Base II for the prior quarter ended until the Term Loan Outstandings exceed the lesser of (x) $25,000,000 and (y) the then amount of Borrowing Base II. 

2.2 Mandatory Repayments and Prepayments of the Term Loan. 

(a) 
 (i) Beginning with the
fiscal quarter ending March 28, 2020 and for each fiscal quarter thereafter until the first Borrowing Base II Period or if Section 2.1(d) is elected, the Borrowers shall make on the last Business Day of each fiscal quarter a payment of
principal on the Term Loan in an amount equal to $4,250,000 (“Required Amortization Amount”). 
 (ii) Beginning with the
fiscal quarter ending March 28, 2020 and for each fiscal quarter thereafter until the commencement of the first Borrowing Base II Period or if Section 2.1(d) is elected, the Borrowers shall make within five (5) Business Days after
financial statements for the last fiscal month in such fiscal quarter were required to have been delivered pursuant to Section 9.6(a)(i), a payment of principal on the Term Loan in an amount, equal to the sum, if positive,
of (A) sixty percent (60%) of Excess Cash Flow for such fiscal quarter minus (B) the aggregate amount of all voluntary principal prepayments, to the extent actually made, of the Term Loan (together with any Early Termination Fee
thereon) during such fiscal quarter (the sum of (A) and (B), the “ECF Amount”); provided that the amount of the ECF Amount in any quarter shall not cause the aggregate ECF Amount paid during any fiscal year to exceed $12,500,00
(which cap for the avoidance of doubt, shall be in addition to the Required Amortization Amount). 
 (b) If at any time or from time to time:

 (i) any Borrower or Guarantor shall undertake an Asset Sale which results in Net Proceeds in excess of $250,000 in the aggregate in any
fiscal year; 
 (ii) any Borrower or Guarantor shall issue or incur Indebtedness (other than any Indebtedness permitted by
Section 9.9); 
 (iii) any Borrower or Guarantor shall issue any Capital Stock (other than any issuances of
Capital Stock permitted by Section 9.7); or

excess of $250,000 in the aggregate in any fiscal year; 
 (the events described in clauses (i) through (iv) of this clause
(b) being collectively referred to herein as “Prepayment Events”), 

  
 55 

 then, subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, (A) the Administrative Borrower shall promptly notify the
Agent in writing of such Prepayment Event (including the amount of the estimated Net Proceeds to be received by a Borrower or a Guarantor thereof) and (B) within five (5) Business Days (or immediately in the case of any issuance or
incurrence of Indebtedness or the issuance of Capital Stock, as the case may be) after receipt by any Borrower or Guarantor of any Net Proceeds of such Prepayment Event, the Administrative Borrower shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, an amount
equal to such Net Proceeds to the Agent for distribution to the Lenders as a prepayment of the Term Loan, which prepayment, subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, shall be applied in accordance with Section 6.4;
provided, however, that the Loan Parties shall be permitted to apply such Net Proceeds (or any portion thereof) from Events of Loss to replace, repair, restore or rebuild the assets subject to an Event of Loss or to purchase or
construct other assets useful in the business of the Loan Parties, provided that (i) no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and (ii) any such Net Proceeds arising from such Event of Loss not (x) used to so replace,
repair, restore or rebuild the assets subject to such Event of Loss, or to purchase or construct other assets useful in the business of the Loan Parties following such Event of Loss, within 180 days after the receipt of such Net Proceeds, or
(y) committed to be used to so replace, repair, restore or rebuild the assets subject to such Event of Loss, or to purchase or construct other assets useful in the business of the Loan Parties following such Event of Loss, within 180 days after
the receipt of such Net Proceeds, and subsequently used as so committed within 180 days after the end of such initial 180-day period, in each case (as to clauses (x) and (y)), shall be applied to the
prepayment of the Term Loan in accordance with Section 6.4. All prepayments of the principal amount of the Term Loan from events described in this Section 2.2(b) shall be accompanied by interest
and any related Early Termination Fee.

2.7 Joint and Several Liability. Borrowers shall be liable for all Obligations due to Agent and Secured Parties under this Agreement,
regardless of which Borrower actually receives the Term Loan or other extensions of credit hereunder or the amount of the Term Loan received or the manner in which Agent accounts for the Term Loan or other extensions of credit on its books and
records. The Obligations with respect to the Term Loan or other extensions of credit made to a Borrower, and the Obligations arising as a result of the joint and several liability of a Borrower hereunder, with respect to the Term Loan or other
extensions of credit made to the other Borrowers hereunder, shall be separate and distinct obligations, but all such Obligations shall be primary obligations of all Borrowers. The Obligations arising as a result of the joint and several liability of
a Borrower hereunder with respect to the Term Loan or other extensions of credit made to the other Borrowers hereunder shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be unconditional irrespective of (a) the validity or enforceability, avoidance
or subordination of the Obligations of the other Borrowers or of any promissory note or other document evidencing all or any part of the Obligations of the other Borrowers, (b) the absence of any attempt to collect the Obligations from the
other Borrowers, any Guarantor or any other security therefor, or the absence of any other action to enforce the same, (c) the failure by Agent to take any steps to perfect and maintain its security interest in, or to preserve its rights and
maintain its security or collateral for the Obligations of the other Borrowers and Guarantors, (d) the election of Agent in any proceeding 

  
 56 

 
instituted under the Bankruptcy Code, of the application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code, (e) the disallowance of all or any portion of the claim(s) of Agent for the
repayment of the Obligations of the other Borrowers and Guarantors under Section 502 of the Bankruptcy Code, or (f) any other circumstances which might constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of any obligor, other than the
payment of the Obligations and the willful misconduct, bad faith or gross negligence of Agent or Lenders as determined pursuant to a final, non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction. With
respect to the Obligations arising as a result of the joint and several liability of a Borrower hereunder with respect to the Term Loan or other extensions of credit made to the other Borrowers hereunder, each Borrower and Guarantor waives, until
the Obligations shall have been paid in full in immediately available funds and this Agreement shall have been terminated, any right to enforce any right of subrogation or any remedy which Agent now has or may hereafter have against Borrowers and
Guarantors, any endorser or any guarantor of all or any part of the Obligations, and any benefit of, and any right to participate in, any security or collateral given to Agent. Upon any Event of Default and for so long as the same is continuing,
subject to Section 10 and the Intercreditor Agreement, Agent may proceed directly and at once, without notice, against any Borrower or Guarantor to collect and recover the full amount, or any portion of the Obligations,
without first proceeding against the other Borrowers or any other Person, or against any security or collateral for the Obligations. Each Borrower and Guarantor consents and agrees that Agent and Lenders shall be under no obligation to marshal any
assets in favor of Borrower(s) or Guarantors against or in payment of any or all of the Obligations. 
 2.8 Defaulting Lenders.
Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender: 

(a) the Pro Rata Share of the then outstanding Obligations of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether all Lenders
or the Required Lenders or all affected Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment or waiver pursuant to Section 11.4), provided that any waiver, amendment or
modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender which affects such Defaulting Lender disproportionately than other affected Lenders shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender; and 

(b) [Reserved] 
 (c) [Reserved]

 (d) [Reserved] 
 (e) Agent
shall not be obligated to transfer to a Defaulting Lender any payments received by Agent for the Defaulting Lender’s benefit, nor shall a Defaulting Lender be entitled to the sharing of any payments hereunder (including any principal, interest
or fees). Amounts payable to a Defaulting Lender shall instead be paid to or retained by Agent. Agent may hold and, in its discretion, relend to a Borrower the amount of all such payments received or retained by it for the account of such Defaulting
Lender. The operation of this Section shall not be construed to increase or otherwise affect the Term Loan Commitment of any Lender, or relieve or excuse the performance by any Borrower or Guarantor of their duties and obligations hereunder. 

  
 57 

 2.9 Optional Prepayment of Term Loan. 

(a) Borrowers shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay the Term Loan in whole or in part, subject to prior notice in
accordance with paragraph (b) of this Section and such prepayment shall be accompanied by interest on the amount so prepaid and any related Early Termination Fee. Any amounts prepaid pursuant to this
Section 2.9 in respect of the principal amount of the Term Loan shall be applied to the principal repayment installments thereof in reverse order of maturity. 

(b) Administrative Borrower shall notify Agent by telephone (confirmed by facsimile or email) or in writing of any prepayment hereunder not
later than 11:00 a.m., New York time, three Business Days before the date of prepayment (or such later date agreed to by the Agent in its sole discretion). Each such notice shall be irrevocable, unless such notice is expressly conditioned on
the occurrence of another transaction, and such notice shall specify the prepayment date and the principal amount of the Term Loan to be prepaid. Promptly following receipt of any such notice, Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof.
The payment amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein. Together with each prepayment under this Section 2.9, the Borrowers shall pay any related Early Termination Fee. 

SECTION 3. INTEREST AND FEES 
 3.1
Interest. 
 (a) Borrowers shall pay to Agent, for the benefit of Lenders, interest on the Term Loan Outstandings at the applicable
Interest Rate. All interest accruing hereunder on and after the date of any Event of Default (for as long as such Event of Default is continuing) or termination hereof shall be payable on demand. 

(b) [Reserved]. 
 (c) [Reserved].

 (d) Interest shall be payable by Borrowers to Agent, for the account of Lenders, monthly in arrears not later than the first Business Day

of Alternate Base Rate) and actual days elapsed. The Interest Rate on non-contingent Obligations (other than the Term Loan) shall increase or decrease by an amount equal to each increase or decrease in the
Alternate Base Rate effective on the date of any change in such Alternate Base Rate. In no event shall charges constituting interest payable by Borrowers to Agent and Lenders exceed the maximum amount or the rate permitted under any applicable law
or regulation, and if any such part or provision of this Agreement is in contravention of any such law or regulation, such part or provision shall be deemed amended to conform thereto. 

3.2 Fees. 
 (a) [Reserved].

  
 58 

 (b) [Reserved.] 

(c) Borrowers shall pay to Agent the fees and amounts set forth in the Fee Letter in the amounts and at the times specified therein. To the
extent payment in full of any applicable fee due to the Lenders is received by Agent from Borrowers, Agent shall pay to each Lender its share of such fees in accordance with the terms of the arrangements of Agent with such Lender. 

3.3 Changes in Laws and Increased Costs of the Term Loan. 

(a) If after the date hereof, either (i) any change in, or in the interpretation of, any law or regulation is introduced, including, with
respect to reserve requirements, applicable to any Lender or any banking or financial institution from whom any Lender borrows funds or obtains credit (a “Funding Bank”), or (ii) a Funding Bank or any Lender complies with any
future guideline or request from any Governmental Authority or (iii) a Funding Bank or any Lender determines that the adoption of any applicable law, rule or regulation regarding capital adequacy, or any change therein, or any change in the
interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof has or would have the effect described below, or a Funding Bank or any Lender
complies with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such Governmental Authority, and in the case of any event set forth in this clause (iii), such adoption,
change or compliance has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on any Lender’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder to a level below that which such Lender could have achieved but for such adoption, change or
compliance (taking into consideration the Funding Bank’s or Lender’s policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount reasonably deemed by such Lender to be material, and the result of any of the foregoing events described in
clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) is or results in an increase in the cost to any Lender of funding or maintaining the Term Loan or its Term Loan Commitment (other than any increased cost resulting from
(A) Taxes (as to which Section 6.5 and the limitations thereto shall govern) or (B) changes in the basis of taxation of overall net income by the jurisdiction under the laws of which the Agent or such Lender is
organized or in which the Agent’s or such Lender’s lending office is located or any political subdivision thereof), then Borrowers and Guarantors shall from time to time upon demand by Agent pay to Agent additional amounts sufficient to
indemnify such Lender, as the case may be, against such increased cost on an after-tax basis (after taking into account applicable deductions and credits in respect of the amount indemnified). A certificate as
to the amount of such increased cost and the calculation thereof, including reasonable supporting information, shall be submitted to Administrative Borrower by Agent or the applicable Lender and shall be prima facie evidence, absent manifest error.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (x) the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines or directives thereunder, issued in connection therewith or in implementation thereof, and
(y) all requests, rules, guidelines and directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States or foreign regulatory authorities,
shall in each case be deemed to be a change in law after the date hereof regardless of the date enacted, adopted, issued or implemented. 

(b) [Reserved]. 

  
 59 

 (c) [Reserved]. 

(d) Prior to requesting indemnification from the Borrowers for any material increased costs described in
Sections 3.3(a) hereto (“Increased Costs”), 
 (i) any Lender affected by any Increased Costs (an
“Affected Lender”) shall make commercially reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office, if such designation would prevent the accruing of Increased Costs or decrease the amount thereof by a material amount, and would
not, in the commercially reasonable judgment of Affected Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to Affected Lender, and 
 (ii) if such
designating of a different lending office would, in the reasonable judgment of Affected Lender, be disadvantageous to Affected Lender, then such Lender shall either: 

(A) assign all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to an Eligible Transferee, if such assignment would eliminate or materially
reduce the amount of the Increased Costs, and would not, in the reasonable judgment of Affected Lender, be disadvantageous to Affected Lender; or 

(B) offer the Borrower to repay within fifteen (15) Business Days after written notice provided to the Borrower (with a copy to Agent) to
that effect, all of Affected Lender’s interest in the Term Loan. Any repayment by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 3.3(d)(ii)(B) shall be made directly to the Affected Lender without giving effect to
Section 6.4, Section 6.10 or any other provision in this Agreement to the contrary. 

(e) [Reserved]. 
 3.4 Effect of
Benchmark Transition Event. 
 (a) Benchmark Replacement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other
Financing Agreement, upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, the Agent and the Borrowers may amend this Agreement to replace London Interbank Offered
Rate with a Benchmark Replacement. Any such amendment with respect to a Benchmark Transition Event will become effective at 5:00 p.m. on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the Agent has posted such proposed amendment to all Lenders and the Borrowers
so long as the Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such amendment from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders. Any such amendment with respect to an Early Opt-in Election will
become effective on the date that Lenders comprising the Required Lenders have delivered to the Agent written notice that such Required Lenders accept such amendment. No replacement of London Interbank Offered Rate with a Benchmark Replacement
pursuant to this Section 3.4 will occur prior to the applicable Benchmark Transition Start Date. 
 (b)
Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. In connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the Agent will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the
contrary herein or in any other Financing Agreement, any amendments implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement. 

  
 60 

 (c) Notices; Standards for Decisions and Determinations. The Agent will promptly
notify the Administrative Borrower and the Lenders of (i) any occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, and its related Benchmark Replacement Date and
Benchmark Transition Start Date, (ii) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement, (iii) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes and (iv) the commencement or conclusion of any Benchmark Unavailability
Period. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Agent or Lenders pursuant to this Section 3.4, including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and
without consent from any other party hereto, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 3.4. 

(d) Benchmark Unavailability Period. Upon the Administrative Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark
Unavailability Period, interest on the Term Loan shall accrue and be payable at the Alternate Base Rate; provided that during any Benchmark Unavailability Period, the component of the Alternate Base Rate based upon the Adjusted Eurodollar
Rate will not be used in any determination of the Alternate Base Rate. 
 (e) Benchmark Replacement Floor. Notwithstanding anything
else herein, any definition of Benchmark Replacement shall provide that in no event shall such Benchmark Replacement be less than two percent (2.00%) for purposes of this Agreement.

hereby grants to Agent, for itself and the benefit of the Secured Parties, a continuing security interest in, a lien upon, and a right of set off against, as security, all of the following personal property and fixtures, and interests in personal
property and fixtures, of each Borrower and Guarantor, whether now owned or hereafter acquired or existing, and wherever located (together with all other collateral security for the Obligations at any time granted to or held or acquired by Agent or

otherwise; 

  
 65 

 (l) all commercial tort claims, including, those identified in
Schedule 5.2(g) hereto; 
 (m) to the extent not otherwise described above, all Receivables; 

(n) all Records; and 
 (o) all
accessions to, substitutions for and replacements, products and proceeds of the foregoing, in any form, including insurance proceeds and all claims against third parties for loss or damage to or destruction of or other involuntary conversion of any
kind or nature of any or all of the other Collateral. 
 Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event shall the Collateral
include, and Borrowers and Guarantors shall not be deemed to have granted a security interest in, (i) any personal and Real Property, fixtures and interest of any Borrower or Guarantor which are not assignable or are incapable of being
encumbered as a matter of law (after giving effect to Sections 9-406, 9-407, 9-408 or
9-409 of the UCC (or any successor provision or provisions) of any relevant jurisdiction or any other applicable law), except for the products and proceeds thereof (except to the extent such products and
proceeds would independently be subject to this clause (i)), (ii) any Borrower’s or Guarantor’s rights or interests in any license, contract or agreement with respect to Intellectual Property (which is not owned by such Borrower or
Guarantor) to which such Borrower or Guarantor is a party or any of its rights or interests thereunder to the extent, but only to the extent, that such a grant would, under applicable law, result in a breach of the terms of, or constitute a default
under any license, contract or agreement to which such Borrower or Guarantor is a party (after giving effect to Sections 9-406, 9-407,
9-408 or 9-409 of the UCC (or any successor provision or provisions) of any relevant jurisdiction or any other applicable law) (except for the products and proceeds
thereof); provided, however, upon the ineffectiveness, lapse or termination of any such provision, the Collateral shall include, and such Borrower or Guarantor shall be deemed to have granted a security interest in, all such rights and
interests as if such provision had never been in effect, and (iii) the Capital Stock of any Foreign Subsidiary to the extent that such Capital Stock constitutes more than sixty-five percent (65%) of the Voting Stock of all classes of the
Capital Stock of such Foreign Subsidiary that are entitled to vote, except for the products and proceeds thereof as long as such products or proceeds do not cause the aggregate amount of the Voting Stock of such Foreign Subsidiary part of the
Collateral to exceed at any time sixty-five percent (65%) of the Voting Stock of all classes of the Capital Stock of such Foreign Subsidiary. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Collateral shall exclude any rights to any Intellectual Property, or
License Agreements that would be cancelled or rendered invalid or unenforceable under applicable law by the grant of a security interest created pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, for as long as such prohibition or reason for invalidity under
applicable law exists, except for the products and proceeds thereof that would not independently be subject to this sentence. If any Borrower or Guarantor is required to deliver an estoppel letter with respect to any leasehold to the landlord party
to such lease (or to the mortgagor of such landlord), the Collateral shall also exclude any rights to such leasehold to the extent necessary to permit such Borrower or Guarantor to certify that such leasehold is not subject to any assignment or
hypothecation, and solely for purposes of such estoppel letter. 

  
 66 

 5.2 Perfection of Security Interests. 

(a) Each Borrower and Guarantor irrevocably and unconditionally authorizes Agent (or its agent) to file at any time and from time to time such
financing statements with respect to the Collateral naming Agent or its designee as the secured party and such Borrower or Guarantor as debtor, as Agent may reasonably require, and including any other information with respect to such Borrower or
Guarantor or otherwise required by part 5 of Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code of such jurisdiction, as Agent may reasonably determine, together with any amendment and continuations with respect thereto, which authorization shall
apply to all financing statements filed on, prior to or after the date hereof. Any such financing statements may indicate the Collateral as (i) all assets of the debtor now owned or hereafter acquired or words of similar effect, regardless of
whether any particular asset comprised in the Collateral falls within the scope of Article 9 of the UCC of such jurisdiction, or (ii) by any other description which reasonably approximates the description contained herein. Each Borrower
and Guarantor hereby ratifies and approves all financing statements naming Agent or its designee as secured party and such Borrower or Guarantor, as the case may be, as debtor with respect to the Collateral (and any amendments with respect to such
financing statements) filed by or on behalf of Agent prior to the date hereof and ratifies and confirms the authorization of Agent to file such financing statements (and amendments, if any). Each Borrower and Guarantor hereby authorizes Agent to
adopt on behalf of such Borrower and Guarantor any symbol required for authenticating any electronic filing. In the event that the description of the collateral in any financing statement naming Agent or its designee as the secured party and any
Borrower or Guarantor as debtor includes assets and properties of such Borrower or Guarantor that do not at any time constitute Collateral, whether hereunder, under any of the other Financing Agreements or otherwise, the filing of such financing
statement shall nonetheless be deemed authorized by such Borrower or Guarantor to the extent of the Collateral included in such description and it shall not render the financing statement ineffective as to any of the Collateral or otherwise affect
the financing statement as it applies to any of the Collateral, provided, that, the inclusion of the description of assets and properties of such Borrower or Guarantor that do not constitute Collateral in any financing statement shall not be
deemed a grant of a security interest in such asset of such Borrower or Guarantor in favor of Agent and Secured Parties. In no event shall any Borrower or Guarantor at any time file, or permit or cause to be filed, any correction statement or
termination statement with respect to any financing statement (or amendment or continuation with respect thereto) naming Agent or its designee as secured party and such Borrower or Guarantor as debtor without the prior written consent of Agent. Each
Borrower and Guarantor acknowledges that it is not authorized to file any financing statement, amendment, termination statement or correction statement with respect to any financing statement without the prior written consent of Agent. 

(b) Each Borrower and Guarantor does not have any Chattel Paper (whether tangible or electronic) or Instruments as of the Closing Date, except
as set forth in the Perfection Certificate. In the event that any Borrower or Guarantor shall be entitled to or shall receive any Chattel Paper or Instrument after the date hereof, which together with all other Chattel Paper or Instruments that
Borrower has become entitled to or has received after the date hereof has an aggregate fair market value in excess of $100,000, Borrowers and Guarantors shall promptly notify Agent thereof in writing. Promptly upon the receipt thereof by or on
behalf of any Borrower or Guarantor (including by any agent or representative), such Borrower or Guarantor shall deliver, or cause to be delivered to Agent or ABL Agent, all such tangible Chattel Paper and Instruments that

  
 67 

 
such Borrower or Guarantor has or may at any time acquire, accompanied by such instruments of transfer or assignment duly executed in blank as Agent may from time to time specify, in each case
except as Agent may otherwise agree. Subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, at Agent’s option, each Borrower and Guarantor shall, or ABL Agent may, or Agent may, at any time on behalf of any Borrower or Guarantor, cause the original of any
such Instrument or Chattel Paper with an aggregate fair market value in excess of $100,000, to be conspicuously marked in a form and manner acceptable to Agent with the following legend (or any substantially similar legend, including any legend also
referring to the security interests of the ABL Agent, as Agent may agree to in its reasonable discretion) referring to Chattel Paper or Instruments as applicable: “This [chattel paper] [instrument] is subject
to the security interests of GACP Finance Co., LLC and any sale, transfer, assignment or encumbrance of this [chattel paper] [instrument] violates the rights of such secured party.” 

(c) In the event that any Borrower or Guarantor shall at any time hold or acquire an interest in any electronic Chattel Paper or any
“transferable record” (as such term is defined in Section 201 of the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act or in Section 16 of the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act as in effect in any relevant
jurisdiction, or any similar or successor act, law or statute) which together with all other electronic Chattel Paper or “transferable record” that Borrower has become entitled to or has received after the date hereof has an aggregate fair
market value in excess of $100,000, such Borrower or Guarantor shall promptly notify Agent thereof in writing. Subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, promptly upon Agent’s request, such Borrower or Guarantor shall take, or cause to be taken,
such actions as Agent may request to give Agent or ABL Agent control of such electronic Chattel Paper under Section 9-105 of the UCC and control of such transferable record under Section 201 of the
Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act or, as the case may be, Section 16 of the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act, as in effect in such jurisdiction, or any similar or successor act, law or statute. 

(d) Each Borrower and Guarantor does not have any Deposit Accounts as of the Closing Date, except (x) Store Accounts or (y) as set
forth in the Perfection Certificate. Borrowers and Guarantors shall not, directly or indirectly, after the date hereof open, establish or maintain any Deposit Account unless each of the following conditions is satisfied: (i) Agent shall have
received not less than five (5) Business Days prior written notice of the intention of any Borrower or Guarantor to open or establish such account which notice shall specify in reasonable detail and specificity reasonably acceptable to Agent
the name of the account, the owner of the account, the name and address of the bank at which such account is to be opened or established, the individual at such bank with whom such Borrower or Guarantor is dealing and the purpose of the account,
(ii) the bank where such account is opened or maintained shall be an Eligible Depository Bank or shall be reasonably acceptable to Agent, and (iii) within fifteen (15) Business Days after the opening of such Deposit Account, such
Borrower or Guarantor shall either (A) deliver to Agent a Deposit Account Control Agreement with respect to such Deposit Account duly authorized, executed and delivered by such Borrower or Guarantor and the bank at which such Deposit Account is
opened and maintained or (B) arrange for Agent or ABL Agent to become the customer of the bank with respect to the Deposit Account on terms and conditions reasonably acceptable to Agent; provided, that to the extent a Deposit Account
Control Agreement has not been delivered to Agent as of the Closing Date for any Deposit Account in existence at such time, Borrowers shall deliver a Deposit Account Control Agreement pursuant to Section 9.29. The terms

  
 68 

 
of this subsection (d) shall not apply Excluded Accounts. Subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, Agent shall not exercise control over any Deposit Account until an
Event of Default has occurred, and thereafter for only so long as it is continuing; and Agent shall cease to exercise control over any Deposit Accounts at such time as no Event of Default is then continuing. 

(e) No Borrower or Guarantor owns or holds, directly or indirectly, beneficially or as record owner or both, any Investment Property, as of the
Closing Date, or has any investment account, Securities account, commodity account or other similar account with any bank or other financial institution or other securities intermediary or commodity intermediary as of the Closing Date, in each case
except as set forth in the Perfection Certificate. 
 (i) In the event that any Borrower or Guarantor shall be entitled to or shall at any
time after the date hereof hold or acquire any certificated Securities, which together with all other certificated Securities that Borrower holds or acquires an interest in after the date hereof have an aggregate fair market value in excess of
$100,000, subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, such Borrower or Guarantor shall promptly endorse, assign and deliver the same to Agent or ABL Agent, accompanied by such instruments of transfer or assignment duly executed in blank as Agent or ABL
Agent may from time to time specify. If any Securities, now or hereafter acquired by any Borrower or Guarantor are uncertificated and are issued to such Borrower or Guarantor or its nominee directly by the issuer thereof, and such Securities
together with all other such Securities acquired by Borrower have an aggregate fair market value in excess of $100,000, such Borrower or Guarantor shall immediately notify Agent thereof and, subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, either
(A) cause the issuer to agree to comply with instructions from Agent or ABL Agent as to such Securities, without further consent of any Borrower or Guarantor or such nominee (it being understood that Agent shall not give any such issuer any
such instructions unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing), or (B) arrange for Agent or ABL Agent to become the registered owner of the Securities. 

(ii) Borrowers and Guarantors shall not, directly or indirectly, after the date hereof open, establish or maintain any investment account,
securities account, commodity account or any other similar account (other than a Deposit Account) with any securities intermediary or commodity intermediary unless each of the following conditions is satisfied: (A) Agent shall have received not
less than five (5) Business Days prior written notice of the intention of such Borrower or Guarantor to open or establish such account which notice shall specify in reasonable detail and specificity reasonably acceptable to Agent the name of
the account, the owner of the account, the name and address of the securities intermediary or commodity intermediary at which such account is to be opened or established, the individual at such intermediary with whom such Borrower or Guarantor is
dealing and the purpose of the account, (B) the securities intermediary or commodity intermediary (as the case may be) where such account is opened or maintained shall be acceptable to Agent, and (C) within fifteen (15) Business Days
after the opening of such investment account, securities account or other similar account with a securities intermediary or commodity intermediary, such Borrower or Guarantor shall either (1) execute and deliver, and cause to be executed and
delivered to Agent, an Investment Property Control Agreement with respect thereto duly authorized, executed and delivered by such Borrower or Guarantor and such securities intermediary or commodity intermediary or (2) arrange for Agent or ABL
Agent to become the entitlement holder with respect to such Investment Property on terms and conditions reasonably acceptable to Agent; provided, that to the extent an Investment Property 

  
 69 

 
Control Agreement has not been delivered to Agent as of the Closing Date for any investment account, securities account or other similar account with a securities intermediary or commodity
intermediary in existence at such time, Borrowers shall deliver an Investment Property Control Agreement pursuant to Section 9.29. Subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, Agent shall not exercise control over any investment
account, securities account, commodity account or other similar account (other than any Deposit Accounts which shall be governed by Section 5.2(d) above) unless an Event of Default has occurred, and thereafter for only so
long as it is continuing; and Agent shall cease to exercise control over any investment account, securities account, commodity account or other similar account at such time as no Event of Default is then continuing. 

(f) Borrowers and Guarantors are not the beneficiary or otherwise entitled to any right to payment under any letter of credit, banker’s
acceptance or similar instrument as of the Closing Date, except as set forth in the Perfection Certificate. In the event that any Borrower or Guarantor shall be entitled to or shall receive any right to payment under any letter of credit,
banker’s acceptance or any similar instrument, whether as beneficiary thereof or otherwise after the date hereof, which together with all other letters of credit, banker’s acceptances and similar instruments that Borrower has become
entitled to or has received after the date hereof has an aggregate fair market value in excess of $250,000, such Borrower or Guarantor shall promptly notify Agent thereof in writing. Such Borrower or Guarantor shall promptly, subject to the
Intercreditor Agreement, either (i) deliver, or cause to be delivered to Agent or ABL Agent, with respect to any such letter of credit, banker’s acceptance or similar instrument, the written agreement of the issuer and any other nominated
Person obligated to make any payment in respect thereof (including any confirming or negotiating bank), in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Agent, consenting to the assignment of the proceeds of the letter of credit to Agent and/or ABL
Agent by such Borrower or Guarantor and agreeing to make all payments thereon directly to Agent or ABL Agent or as Agent or ABL Agent may otherwise direct upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default or (ii) cause Agent
or ABL Agent to become, at Borrowers’ expense, the transferee beneficiary of the letter of credit, banker’s acceptance or similar instrument (as the case may be) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default. 

(g) Except as set forth in Schedule 5.2(g) hereto, on the Closing Date, Borrowers and Guarantors do not have any
commercial tort claims with respect to which the amount claimed exceeds $250,000 and either a written demand therefor has been made or legal action has commenced. In the event that any Borrower or Guarantor shall at any time after the date hereof
have any commercial tort claims with respect to which the amount claimed exceeds $250,000 and either a written demand therefor has been made or legal action has commenced, or if any Event of Default exists, upon Agent’s request, if any Borrower
or Guarantor has any commercial tort claims, such Borrower or Guarantor shall promptly notify Agent thereof in writing, which notice shall (i) set forth in reasonable detail the basis for and nature of such commercial tort claim and
(ii) include the express grant by such Borrower or Guarantor to Agent of a security interest in such commercial tort claim (and the proceeds thereof). In the event that such notice does not include such grant of a security interest, the sending
thereof by such Borrower or Guarantor to Agent shall be deemed to constitute such grant to Agent. Upon the sending of such notice, any commercial tort claim described therein shall constitute part of the Collateral and shall be deemed included
therein. Without limiting the authorization of Agent provided in Section 5.2(a) hereof or otherwise arising by the execution by such Borrower or Guarantor of this 

  
 70 

 
Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements, Agent is hereby irrevocably authorized from time to time and at any time to file such financing statements naming Agent or its designee as
secured party and such Borrower or Guarantor as debtor, or any amendments to any financing statements, covering any such commercial tort claim as Collateral. In addition, each Borrower and Guarantor shall promptly upon Agent’s reasonable
request, execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, to Agent such other agreements, documents and instruments as Agent may require in connection with such commercial tort claim. 

(h) Borrowers and Guarantors do not have any Goods, documents of title or other Collateral in the custody, control or possession of a third
party as of the Closing Date, except as set forth in the Perfection Certificate and except for Goods located in the United States in transit to a location of a Borrower or Guarantor permitted herein in the ordinary course of business of such
Borrower or Guarantor in the possession of any carrier transporting such Goods. In the event that any Goods covered by documents of title or other Collateral with a fair market value in excess of $250,000 are at any time after the date hereof in the
custody, control or possession of any other Person not referred to in the Perfection Certificate or such carriers, Borrowers and Guarantors shall promptly notify Agent thereof in writing. Promptly upon Agent’s reasonable request, Borrowers and
Guarantors shall deliver to Agent a Collateral Access Agreement, subject to Section 9.29 hereof, duly authorized, executed and delivered by such Person and the Borrower or Guarantor that is the owner of such Collateral,
except where the fair market value of the Collateral involved is less than $250,000 so long as the aggregate Value of all Collateral located at such locations without a Collateral Access Agreement shall not exceed $2,000,000. 

(i) Each Borrower and Guarantor will use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the Intellectual Property owned by it, defend the
Intellectual Property against the claims of all persons, and will maintain and renew all registrations of the Intellectual Property, if applicable, in each case in the ordinary course of business; provided, that, Borrowers and Guarantors
shall not be required to maintain, defend or renew any Intellectual Property which is not material to the Borrowers’ business or has no material economic value. If any trademark is material to the conduct of any Borrower’s or
Guarantor’s business or has material economic value, such Borrower or Guarantor, as the case may be, shall not permit the expiration or abandonment of such trademark without the prior written consent of Agent (which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld). If, before the Obligations have been satisfied in full and the Financing Agreements have been terminated, any Borrower or Guarantor shall obtain or acquire any new trademark registration or file or acquire any new trademark
application, Administrative Borrower shall give Agent notice thereof in the compliance certificate delivered to Agent pursuant to Section 9.6(a)(i) hereof. 

(i) Until the Obligations shall have been Paid in Full and the Financing Agreements have been terminated (other than indemnification and other
contingent obligations not yet accrued at such time), each Borrower and Guarantor shall use commercially reasonable efforts to preserve and maintain all rights in the trademarks and the other Intellectual Property; provided, that Borrowers
and Guarantors are not required to preserve or maintain any trademarks which are not material to the Borrowers’ business or have no material economic value. Any expenses incurred in connection with such actions shall be borne by Borrowers. 

  
 71 

 (ii) Borrowers and Guarantors shall not expressly abandon any right to file a trademark,
copyright or patent application or registration for any trademark, copyright or patent, or abandon any pending trademark, copyright or patent application or registration without the prior written consent of Agent (which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld), except to the extent that the trademark, copyright or patent covered by such application or registration is not material to the Borrowers’ business or has no material economic value. 

(j) Subject to Section 9.2 hereof, Borrowers and Guarantors shall take any other actions reasonably requested by
Agent from time to time to cause the attachment and perfection (with the priority required by the Financing Agreements), and, subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, the ability of Agent to enforce, the security interest of Agent in any and all of
the Collateral, including, (i) executing, delivering and, where appropriate, filing financing statements and amendments relating thereto under the UCC or other applicable law, to the extent, if any, that any Borrower’s or Guarantor’s
signature thereon is required therefor, (ii) upon Agent’s request after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, causing Agent’s (or, if only one name may be noted, whichever of Agent and ABL Agent has
priority with respect to such Collateral pursuant to the Intercreditor Agreement) name to be noted as secured party on any certificate of title for a titled good if such notation is a condition to attachment, perfection or priority of, or ability of
Agent or ABL Agent to enforce, the security interest of Agent in such Collateral, (iii) complying with any provision of any statute, regulation or treaty of the United States as to any Collateral if compliance with such provision is a condition
to attachment, perfection or priority of, or ability of Agent to enforce, the security interest of Agent in such Collateral, (iv) obtaining the required consents and approvals of any Governmental Authority or third party, including, any consent
of any licensor, lessor or other Person obligated on Collateral, and taking all actions required by other law, as applicable in any relevant jurisdiction; and (v) executing, delivering and filing Intellectual Property Security Agreements
substantially in the form of Exhibit H attached hereto in the United States Patent and Trademark Office and the United States Copyright Office, as applicable, and any other appropriate filing offices as the Agent may reasonably request. 

SECTION 6. COLLECTION AND ADMINISTRATION 

6.1 Borrowers’ Loan Accounts. Agent shall maintain one or more loan account(s) on its books in which shall be
recorded (a) all Term Loan Outstandings and other Obligations and the Collateral, (b) all payments made by or on behalf of any Borrower or Guarantor and (c) all other appropriate debits and credits as provided in this Agreement,
including fees, charges, costs, expenses and interest. All entries in the loan account(s) shall be made in accordance with Agent’s customary practices as in effect from time to time and shall be deemed conclusive absent manifest error or
omissions. 
 6.2 Statements. Agent shall render to Administrative Borrower each month a statement setting forth the balance in the
Borrowers’ loan account(s) maintained by Agent for Borrowers pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, including principal, interest, fees, costs and expenses. Each such statement shall be subject to subsequent adjustment by Agent but
shall, absent manifest errors or omissions, be considered correct and deemed accepted by Borrowers and Guarantors and conclusively binding upon Borrowers and Guarantors as an account stated except to the extent that Agent receives a written notice
from Administrative Borrower of any specific exceptions of 

  
 72 

 
Administrative Borrower thereto within thirty (30) days after the date such statement has been received by Administrative Borrower. Until such time as Agent shall have rendered to
Administrative Borrower a written statement as provided above, the balance in any Borrower’s loan account(s) shall be presumptive evidence of the amounts due and owing to Agent and Lenders by Borrowers and Guarantors. 

6.3 Collection of Accounts. 

(a) Each Borrower and Guarantor shall establish and maintain, at its expense, deposit account arrangements and merchant payment arrangements
with the banks set forth on Schedule 8.10 hereto and subject to Section 5.2(d) hereof such other banks as such Borrower or Guarantor may hereafter select and which shall be reasonably satisfactory
to the Agent. The banks set forth on Schedule 8.10 hereto constitute all of the banks with which Borrowers and Guarantors have deposit account arrangements and merchant payment arrangements as of the Closing Date and
identifies each of the Deposit Accounts at such banks that are used solely for receiving store receipts from a retail store location of a Borrower (together with any other Deposit Accounts at any time established or used by any Borrower for
receiving such store receipts from any retail store location, collectively, the “Store Accounts” and each individually, a “Store Account”) or otherwise describes the nature of the use of such Deposit Account by such
Borrower or Guarantor. 
 (i) Each Borrower shall deposit all proceeds from sales of Inventory in every form, including, without limitation,
cash, checks, credit card sales drafts, credit card sales or charge slips or receipts and other forms of daily store receipts, from each retail store location of such Borrower into the Store Account of such Borrower used solely for such purpose in
accordance with the current and prior practices of such Borrower, but in any event no less frequently than once every three (3) Business Days; provided, that, each retail store of a Borrower may retain in such store funds of up to
$10,000 immediately after each deposit of funds from such store into the applicable Store Account. All such funds deposited into the Store Accounts shall be sent by wire transfer or other electronic funds transfer on each Business Day to the Blocked
Accounts as provided in Section 6.3(a)(ii) below, except for (A) nominal amounts which are required to be maintained in such Store Accounts under the terms of such Borrower’s arrangements with the bank at which
such Store Accounts are maintained or (B) with respect to funds deposited in Manual Sweeping Accounts, which shall be sent to the Blocked Accounts not less than twice every week (and which amounts, together with all amounts held at the retail
store locations and not yet deposited in the Store Accounts and amounts in Store Accounts, shall not in the aggregate exceed $3,500,000 at any one time, except (1) to the extent from time to time additional amounts may be held in the retail
stores or the Store Accounts on Saturday, Sunday or other days where the applicable depository bank is closed, which additional amounts are to be, and shall be, transferred on the next Business Day to the Blocked Accounts, and (2) as Agent may
otherwise agree in its sole discretion). 
 (ii) Each Borrower shall establish and maintain, at its expense, Deposit Accounts with such
banks as are reasonably acceptable to Agent (the “Blocked Accounts”) into which each Borrower shall promptly either cause all amounts on deposit in the Store Accounts of such Borrower to be sent as provided in
Section 6.3(a)(i) above or shall itself deposit or cause to be deposited all proceeds of Collateral, including all proceeds from sales of Inventory, all amounts payable to each Borrower from Credit Card Issuers and Credit
Card Processors, and all other proceeds of Collateral. Any Eligible Depository Bank shall be deemed acceptable to Agent. 

  
 73 

 (iii) Borrowers and Guarantors shall deliver, or cause to be delivered to Agent a Deposit
Account Control Agreement duly authorized, executed and delivered by each bank where a Blocked Account is maintained as provided in Section 5.2 hereof. Without limiting any other rights or remedies of Agent or Lenders,
subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, Agent may, at its option, and shall (at the direction of Required Lenders), instruct the depository banks at which the Blocked Accounts are maintained to transfer all available funds received or
deposited into the Blocked Accounts to the Agent Payment Account at any time that an Event of Default is continuing and Agent shall send to Administrative Borrower a copy of any such written instruction sent by Agent to the depository bank promptly
thereafter. Subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, at all times that Agent shall have notified any depository bank to transfer funds from a Blocked Account to the Agent Payment Account, all payments made to such Blocked Accounts,
whether in respect of the Receivables, as proceeds of Inventory or other Collateral or otherwise shall be treated as payments to Agent in respect of the Obligations and therefore shall constitute the property of Agent and Lenders to the extent of
the then outstanding Obligations. 
 (b) For purposes of calculating the Term Loan Outstandings, subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, any
payment made pursuant to Section 6.3(a)(iii) will be applied (conditional upon final collection) to the Obligations on the Business Day of receipt by Agent of immediately available funds in the Agent Payment Account
provided such payments and notice thereof are received in accordance with Agent’s usual and customary practices as in effect from time to time and within sufficient time to credit the applicable loan account on such day, and if not, then on the
next Business Day. Subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, for the purposes of calculating interest on the Obligations, such payments or other funds received will be applied (conditional upon final collection) to the Obligations in accordance with
Section 6.4(a) hereof on the same Business Day of receipt by Agent of immediately available funds in the Agent Payment Account provided such payments or other funds and notice thereof are received in accordance with
Agent’s usual and customary practices as in effect from time to time, by 11:00 a.m. New York City time and if not, then on the next Business Day. 

(c) Subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Parent and its
shareholders, directors, employees, agents, each Borrower and Guarantor and their respective employees, agents and Subsidiaries or other Affiliates shall receive and promptly remit to Agent, as the property of Agent, any monies, checks, notes,
drafts or any other payment relating to and/or proceeds of Accounts or other Collateral which come into their possession or under their control and promptly upon receipt thereof, shall deposit or cause the same to be deposited in the Blocked
Accounts, or remit the same or cause the same to be remitted, in kind, to Agent. In no event shall the same be commingled with any Borrower’s or Guarantor’s own funds. Borrowers agree to reimburse Agent on demand for any amounts owed or
paid to any bank or other financial institution at which a Blocked Account or any other Deposit Account or investment account is established or any other bank, financial institution or other Person involved in the transfer of funds to or from the
Blocked Accounts arising out of Agent’s payments to or indemnification of such bank, financial institution or other Person. 

  
 74 

 
The obligations of Borrowers to reimburse Agent for such amounts pursuant to this Section 6.3 shall survive the termination or
non-renewal of this Agreement. 
 6.4 Payments. 

(a) All Obligations shall be payable to the Agent Payment Account as provided in Section 6.3 or such other place as
Agent may designate from time to time. Subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, Agent shall apply payments received or collected from any Borrower or Guarantor or for the account of any Borrower or Guarantor (including the monetary
proceeds of collections or of realization upon any Collateral) as follows: 
 (i) first, to pay any fees, indemnities or expense
reimbursements then due to Agent from any Borrower or Guarantor; 
 (ii) second, to pay any fees, indemnities, or expense
reimbursements then due to Lenders from any Borrower or Guarantor; 
 (iii) third, to pay interest due in respect of the Term Loan
(and including any Special Agent Advances); 
 (iv) fourth, to pay or prepay principal in respect of Special Agent Advances; 

(v) fifth, to pay or prepay principal in respect of the Term Loan; and 

(vi) sixth, to pay or prepay any other Obligations whether or not then due, in such order and manner as Agent determines. 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, (A) to the extent any Borrower uses any proceeds of the Term Loan to
acquire rights in or the use of any Collateral or to repay any Indebtedness used to acquire rights in or the use of any Collateral, payments in respect of the Obligations shall be deemed applied first to the Obligations arising from the Term Loan
that were not used for such purposes and second to the Obligations arising from Term Loan the proceeds of which were used to acquire rights in or the use of any Collateral in the chronological order in which such Borrower acquired such rights in or
the use of such Collateral. 
 (b) Subject to Section 6.5, Borrower shall make all payments to Agent and Lenders on
the Obligations free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any setoff, counterclaim, defense, restrictions or conditions of any kind. If after receipt of any payment of, or proceeds of Collateral applied to the
payment of, any of the Obligations, Agent or any Lender is required to surrender or return such payment or proceeds to any Person for any reason, then the Obligations intended to be satisfied by such payment or proceeds shall be reinstated and
continue and this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect as if such payment or proceeds had not been received by Agent or such Lender. Borrowers and Guarantors shall be liable to pay to Agent and Lenders, and do hereby indemnify and hold
Agent and Lenders harmless for the amount of any payments or proceeds so surrendered or returned and to the extent thereof. This Section 6.4(b) shall remain effective notwithstanding any contrary action which may be taken
by Agent or any Lender in reliance upon such payment or proceeds. This Section 6.4 shall survive the payment of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement. 

  
 75 

 6.5 Taxes. 

(a) Payment Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Borrower under any Financing Agreement shall
be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law. If any applicable law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable withholding agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from
any such payment by a withholding agent, then the applicable withholding agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance
with applicable law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the applicable Loan Party shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings
applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 6.5) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made. 

(b) Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrowers. The Borrowers shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with
applicable law, or at the option of the Agent timely reimburse it for, Other Taxes. 
 (c) Evidence of Payment. As soon as practicable
after any payment of Taxes by any Borrower to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 6.5, such Borrower shall deliver to the Agent 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 Agent. 

(d) Indemnification by the Loan Parties. The Loan Parties shall jointly and severally indemnify each Recipient, within ten
(10) days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be
withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified 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 any Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the Agent), or by the Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 

(e) Indemnification by the Lenders. Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Agent, within ten (10) days after demand therefor,
for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that any Borrower has not already indemnified the Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrowers to do so) and
(ii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Agent in connection with any Financing Agreement, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such
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 any Lender by the Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender
hereby authorizes the Agent to setoff and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Financing Agreement or otherwise payable by the Agent to such Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Agent under this
paragraph (e). 

  
 76 

 (f) Status of Lenders. 

(i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Financing
Agreement shall deliver to the Administrative Borrower and the Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Administrative Borrower or the Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the
Administrative Borrower or the Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Administrative Borrower or the Agent, shall deliver such
other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Administrative Borrower or the Agent as will enable the Borrowers or the Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information
reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in
Section 6.5(f)(ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material
unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender. 
 (ii) Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, in the event that any Borrower is a U.S. Person, 
 (A) any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the
Administrative Borrower and the Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Administrative Borrower or the Agent), an executed copy of
IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax; 
 (B)
any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Administrative Borrower and the Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender
becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Administrative Borrower or the Agent), whichever of the following is applicable: 

(1) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party
(x) with respect to payments of interest under any Financing Agreement, an executed copy of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form
W-8BEN-E, as applicable, establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty
and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Financing Agreement, IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E,
as applicable, establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. Federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty; 

  
 77 

 (2) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming that its extension of credit
will generate U.S. effectively connected income, an executed copy of IRS Form W-8ECI; 

(3) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of
the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit E-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a
“10 percent shareholder” of a Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance
Certificate”) and (y) an executed copy of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable; or 

(4) to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, an executed copy of IRS Form
W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit E-1, IRS Form W-9, and/or other
certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such
Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit E-2 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner; 

(C) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Administrative Borrower and the Agent (in such
number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Administrative Borrower or the
Agent), executed copies of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by
applicable law to permit the Borrowers or the Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; 
 (D) if a payment made
to a Lender under any Financing Agreement would be subject to U.S. Federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such 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), such Lender shall deliver to the Administrative Borrower and the Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Administrative Borrower or the 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 the Administrative Borrower or the Agent as may be necessary for the
Borrowers and the Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for
purposes of this clause (D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement; and 

  
 78 

 (E) any other form prescribed by law as a basis for claiming exemption from, or a reduction
of, U.S. Federal withholding Tax together with such supplementary documentation necessary to enable Administrative Borrower or Agent to determine the amount of Tax (if any) required by law to be withheld. 

(g) Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it
shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Administrative Borrower and the Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of
any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of
indemnity payments made under this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified
party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid
over pursuant to this paragraph (g) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (g), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (g) the payment of which would place the indemnified party
in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise
imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This paragraph (g) shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information
relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person. 
 (h) Survival. Each party’s
obligations under this Section shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Term Loan Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of
all obligations under any Financing Agreement (including the Payment in Full of the Obligations). 
 6.6 [Reserved]. 

6.7 Use of Proceeds. 
 (a)
Borrowers shall use the proceeds of the Term Loan hereunder only to (i) pay the purchase price payable in connection with the Acquisition under the Acquisition Agreement, (ii) pay for costs, expenses and fees in connection with the
Acquisition, the Acquisition Agreement, this Agreement, the other Financing Agreements, the ABL Credit Agreement and the other Financing Agreements (as defined in the ABL Credit Agreement) and the consummation of any other permitted transactions
contemplated hereby which will take place on or about the Closing Date and (iii) finance general operating, working capital and other proper corporate purposes of such Borrower (including the intercompany funding of Borrowers, Guarantors and
their Subsidiaries) not otherwise prohibited by the terms hereof. None of the proceeds of the Term 

  
 79 

 
Loan will be used, directly or indirectly, for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any margin security or for the purposes of reducing or retiring any Indebtedness which was originally incurred
to purchase or carry any margin security or for any other purpose which might cause the Term Loan to be considered a “purpose credit” within the meaning of Regulation U of the Federal Reserve Board, as amended. 

(b) No Borrower or Guarantor shall use, and each Borrower and Guarantor shall ensure that its Subsidiaries and their respective directors,
officers and agents shall not use, the proceeds of the Term Loan (i) in furtherance of an offer, payment, promise to pay, or authorization of the payment or giving of money, or anything else of value, to any Person in violation of any
Anti-Corruption Laws, (ii) for the purpose of funding, financing or facilitating any activities, business or transaction of or with any Sanctioned Person, or in any Sanctioned Country, to the extent that such activities, businesses or
transaction would be prohibited by applicable Sanctions, or (iii) in any manner that would result in the violation of any Sanctions applicable to any party hereto. 

6.8 Appointment of Administrative Borrower as Agent for Receipts of Statements. 

(a) [Reserved]. 
 (b) [Reserved].

 (c) Each Borrower and other Guarantor hereby irrevocably appoints Vitamin Shoppe Industries as Administrative Borrower and, as such
constitutes Administrative Borrower as its respective agent to receive statements on account and all other notices from Agent and Lenders with respect to the Obligations or otherwise under or in connection with this Agreement and the other Financing
Agreements. 
 (d) Any notice, election, representation, warranty, agreement or undertaking by or on behalf of any other Borrower or any
Guarantor by Administrative Borrower shall be deemed for all purposes to have been made by such Borrower or Guarantor, as the case may be, and shall be binding upon and enforceable against such Borrower or Guarantor to the same extent as if made
directly by such Borrower or Guarantor. 
 (e) The Administrative Borrower may execute any of its duties as the Administrative Borrower
hereunder and under any other Financing Agreements by or through Authorized Officers. 
 (f) No purported termination of the appointment of
Administrative Borrower as agent as aforesaid shall be effective, except after ten (10) days’ prior written notice to Agent. 
 6.9
Pro Rata Treatment. Except to the extent otherwise provided in this Agreement or as otherwise agreed by Lenders: (a) the Term Loan shall be made among the Lenders based on their respective Pro Rata Shares as to the Term Loan and
(b) each payment on account of any Obligations to or for the account of one or more of Lenders in respect of any Obligations due on a particular day shall be allocated among the Lenders entitled to such payments based on their respective Pro
Rata Shares of the Term Loan, as applicable, and shall be distributed accordingly. 

  
 80 

 6.10 Sharing of Payments, Etc. 

(a) Each Borrower and Guarantor agrees that, in addition to (and without limitation of) any right of setoff, banker’s lien or counterclaim
Agent or any Lender may otherwise have, each Lender shall be entitled, at its option (but subject, as among Agent and Lenders, to the provisions of Section 12.3(b) hereof), to offset balances held by it for the account of
such Borrower or Guarantor at any of its offices, in dollars or in any other currency, against any principal of or interest on the Term Loan owed to such Lender or any other amount payable to such Lender hereunder, that is not paid when due
(regardless of whether such balances are then due to such Borrower or Guarantor), in which case it shall promptly notify Administrative Borrower and Agent thereof; provided, that, such Lender’s failure to give such notice shall not
affect the validity thereof. 
 (b) If, except as otherwise expressly provided herein, any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or
counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Term Loans or participations resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Term Loans and
participations and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other similarly situated Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Term Loans of other
Lenders to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by all such Lenders ratably in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares; provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all
or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be
construed to apply to any payment made by the Borrowers pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Term
Loans to any assignee or participant, other than to the Borrowers or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply). Each Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively
do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against such Borrower rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a
direct creditor of such Borrower in the amount of such participation. 
 (c) Each Borrower and Guarantor agrees that any Lender purchasing a
participation (or direct interest) as provided in this Section may exercise, in a manner consistent with this Section, all rights of setoff, banker’s lien, counterclaim or similar rights with respect to such participation as fully as if such
Lender were a direct holder of Term Loan or other amounts (as the case may be) owing to such Lender in the amount of such participation. 

(d) Nothing contained herein shall require any Lender to exercise any right of setoff, banker’s lien, counterclaims or similar rights or
shall affect the right of any Lender to exercise, and retain the benefits of exercising, any such right with respect to any other Indebtedness or obligation of any Borrower or Guarantor. If, under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or

  
 81 

 
other similar law, any Lender receives a secured claim in lieu of a setoff to which this Section applies, such Lender shall, to the extent practicable, assign such rights to Agent for the benefit
of Secured Parties and, in any event, exercise its rights in respect of such secured claim in a manner consistent with the rights of Lenders entitled under this Section to share in the benefits of any recovery on such secured claim. 

6.11 Settlement Procedures. 

(a) [Reserved]. 
 (b) [Reserved].

 (c) No Lender shall be responsible for any default by any other Lender in the other Lender’s obligation to make Term Loan hereunder
nor shall the Term Loan Commitment of any Lender be increased or decreased as a result of the default by any other Lender in the other Lender’s obligation to make the Term Loan hereunder. 

(d) Agent may assume that each Lender will make available to Agent such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Term Loan and Agent may, in its
discretion, but shall not be obligated to, cause a corresponding amount to be made available to or for the benefit of such Borrower on the Closing Date. If Agent makes such corresponding amount available to a Borrower and such corresponding amount
is not in fact made available to Agent by such Lender, Agent shall be entitled to recover such corresponding amount on demand from such Lender together with interest thereon for each day from the date such payment was due until the date such amount
is paid to Agent at the Federal Funds Rate for each day during such period (as published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York or at Agent’s option based on the arithmetic mean determined by Agent of the rates for the last transaction in
overnight Federal funds arranged prior to 9:00 a.m. (New York City time) on that day by each of the three leading brokers of Federal funds transactions in New York City selected by Agent) and if such amounts are not paid within three
(3) days of Agent’s demand, at the highest Interest Rate provided for in Section 3.1 hereof. During the period in which such Lender has not paid such corresponding amount to Agent, notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained in this Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements, the amount so advanced by Agent to or for the benefit of any Borrower shall, for all purposes hereof, be a part of the Term Loan made by Agent for its own account. Upon
any such failure by a Lender to pay Agent, Agent shall promptly thereafter notify Administrative Borrower of such failure and Borrowers shall pay such corresponding amount to Agent for its own account within five (5) Business Days of
Administrative Borrower’s receipt of such notice, which shall constitute a payment on account of Obligations. 
 (e) Nothing in this
Section or elsewhere in this Agreement or the other Financing Agreements shall be deemed to require Agent to advance funds on behalf of any Lender or to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its Term Loan Commitment hereunder or to
prejudice any rights that any Borrower may have against any Lender as a result of any default by any Lender hereunder in fulfilling its Term Loan Commitment. 

  
 82 

 6.12 Obligations Several; Independent Nature of Lenders’ Rights.
The obligation of each Lender hereunder is several, and no Lender shall be responsible for the obligation or the Term Loan Commitment of any other Lender hereunder. Nothing contained in this Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements and no
action taken by the Lenders pursuant hereto or thereto shall be deemed to constitute the Lenders to be a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity. The amounts payable at any time hereunder to each Lender shall be a
separate and independent debt, and subject to Section 12.3 hereof, each Lender shall be entitled to protect and enforce its rights arising out of this Agreement and it shall not be necessary for any other Lender to be
joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose.

 SECTION 8. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES 

Each Borrower and Guarantor hereby represents and warrants to Agent and Lenders the following, the truth and accuracy of which are a condition
precedent to the making of the Term Loan: 
 8.1 Corporate Existence, Power and Authority. Each Borrower and Guarantor is a
corporation duly organized and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation and is duly qualified as a foreign corporation and in good standing in all states or other jurisdictions where the nature and extent of the business
transacted by it or the ownership of assets makes such qualification necessary, except for those other jurisdictions in which the failure to so qualify would not have a Material Adverse Effect. The execution, delivery and performance of this
Agreement, the other Financing Agreements and the transactions contemplated hereunder and thereunder (a) are all within each Borrower’s and Guarantor’s company powers, (b) have been duly authorized, (c) are not in
contravention of law or the terms of any Borrower’s or Guarantor’s certificate of formation, operating agreement, or other organizational documentation, or any indenture, agreement or undertaking to which any Borrower or Guarantor is a
party or by which any Borrower or Guarantor or its property are bound and (d) will not result in the creation or imposition of, or require or give rise to any obligation to grant, any lien, security interest, charge or other encumbrance upon
any property of any Borrower or Guarantor, except, (i) with respect to (c) above, where such contravention of law would not have a Material Adverse Effect and (ii) with respect to (d) above, the creation of the security interest
in the Collateral in favor of Agent and Secured Parties pursuant to the terms of the Financing Agreements. This Agreement and the other Financing Agreements to which any Borrower or Guarantor is a party constitute legal, valid and binding
obligations of such Borrower and Guarantor enforceable in accordance with their respective terms except as such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium or similar laws limiting creditors’ rights generally or by
general equitable principles.

tests, a proposed plan for responding to any environmental problems described therein, and an estimate of the costs thereof and (ii) provide to Agent a supplemental report of such consultant whenever the scope of such non-compliance, or such Borrower’s or Guarantor’s response thereto or the estimated costs thereof, shall change in any material respect.

Hazardous Materials except to the extent such losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs, and expenses arise out of or are attributable to the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of Agent or any Lender. All indemnifications in this
Section 9.3 shall survive the payment of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement. 
 9.4 Payment
of Taxes and Claims. Each Borrower and Guarantor shall, and shall cause any Subsidiary to, duly pay and discharge all Taxes, assessments, contributions and governmental charges upon or against it or its properties or assets, except for Taxes

9.5 Insurance. Each Borrower and Guarantor shall, and shall cause any Subsidiary to, at all times, maintain with financially sound and
reputable insurers insurance with respect to the Collateral against loss or damage and all other insurance of the kinds and in the amounts customarily insured against or carried by companies of established reputation engaged in the same or similar
businesses and similarly situated. Such policies of insurance shall be reasonably satisfactory to Agent as to form, amount and insurer. Borrowers and Guarantors shall furnish certificates, policies or endorsements to Agent as Agent shall reasonably
require as proof of such insurance, and, if any Borrower or Guarantor fails to do so, in the case of endorsements, subject to Section 9.29, Agent is authorized, but not required, to obtain such insurance at the expense of Borrowers,
provided, however, that by purchasing such insurance, Agent shall not be deemed to have waived any Default arising from any Borrower’s or Guarantor’s failure to maintain such insurance or pay any premiums therefor. All such
insurance policies shall provide for at least thirty (30) days prior written notice to Agent of any cancellation, amendment or reduction of coverage and that Agent may act as attorney for each Borrower and Guarantor in obtaining, and at

  
 102 

 
any time an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, adjusting, settling, amending and canceling, such insurance. Borrowers and Guarantors shall cause Agent to be named as a loss payee
and/or an additional insured, as applicable (but without any liability for any premiums) under all casualty and property insurance policies (but not any business interruption insurance policies) and, subject to Section 9.29, Borrowers and
Guarantors shall obtain non-contributory lender’s loss payable endorsements to all property and casualty insurance policies in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Agent, which provide that all
proceeds thereunder with respect to any Collateral shall be payable to Agent, and that no such insurance shall be affected by any act or neglect of the insured or owner of the property described in such policy. Except (a) upon the occurrence
and during the continuance of an Event of Default or (b) during a Compliance Period, to the extent the insurance proceeds relate to any Collateral which at the time of loss was included in the calculation of the Borrowing Base or Borrowing Base
II, insurance proceeds may be applied by Borrower in its discretion to the repair or replacement of any lost or damaged Collateral that gave rise to such insurance proceeds so long as (i) in the context of replacing lost or damaged Collateral,
the insurance proceeds are used to replace such lost or damaged Collateral with like Collateral, and (ii) such repair or replacement is completed within one hundred eighty (180) days of the receipt of insurance proceeds, or if Borrower
commits in writing to undertake such repair or replacement within such one hundred eighty (180) day period, within two hundred seventy (270) days of the date of the receipt of insurance proceeds. Such lender’s loss payable
endorsements shall specify that the proceeds of such insurance shall be payable to Agent, for itself and the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties and Lenders, as its interests may appear and further specify that Agent shall be paid regardless of
any act or omission by any Borrower, Guarantor or any of its or their Affiliates. Without limiting any other rights of Agent or Lenders, and subject to Borrowers’ right to otherwise use insurance proceeds as provided in this
Section 9.5, any insurance proceeds received by Agent at any time may be applied to payment of the Obligations, whether or not then due, in any order and in such manner as Agent may determine. 

9.6 Financial Statements and Other Information.

such financial and other information as Agent shall reasonably request relating to the Collateral and the assets, business and operations of Borrowers and Guarantors, and Borrower shall notify the auditors and accountants of Borrowers and Guarantors
that Agent is authorized to obtain such information directly from them. Without limiting the foregoing, Administrative Borrower shall furnish or cause to be furnished to Agent, the following: 

(i) within forty-five (45) days after the end of each fiscal month, monthly unaudited consolidated financial statements and unaudited
consolidating financial statements (including in each case balance sheets, statements of income and loss, and statements of cash flow), all in reasonable detail, fairly presenting in all material respects the financial position and the results of
the operations of Parent and its Subsidiaries as of the end of and through such fiscal month, certified to be correct in all material respects by the chief financial officer, treasurer, or other similar officer of Administrative Borrower (or if no
such officer has been appointed or elected, the sole member of Administrative Borrower), subject to normal year-end adjustments

appropriate, setoff and realize upon any and all Collateral, (v) remove any or all of the Collateral from any premises on or in which the same may be located for the purpose of effecting the sale, foreclosure or other disposition thereof or for
any other purpose, (vi) sell, lease, transfer, assign, deliver or otherwise dispose of any and all Collateral (including entering into contracts with respect thereto, public or private sales at any exchange, broker’s board, at any office
of Agent or elsewhere) at such prices or terms as Agent may deem reasonable, for cash, upon credit or for future delivery, with the Agent having the right to purchase the whole or any part of the Collateral at any such public sale, all of the
foregoing being free from any right or equity of redemption of any Borrower or Guarantor, which right or equity of redemption is hereby expressly waived and released by Borrowers and Guarantors, (vii) give notice of sole control or any other
instruction under any Deposit Account Control Agreement (to the extent of Agent’s authority therefor under such Deposit Account Control Agreement), and/or (viii) terminate this Agreement. If any of the Collateral is sold or leased by Agent
upon credit terms or for future delivery, the Obligations shall not be reduced as a result thereof until payment therefor is finally collected by Agent. If notice of disposition of Collateral is required by law, ten (10) days’ prior notice
by Agent to Administrative Borrower designating the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale or other intended disposition of Collateral is to be made, shall be deemed to be reasonable notice thereof and Borrowers
and Guarantors waive any other notice. In the event Agent institutes an action to recover any Collateral or seeks recovery of any Collateral by way of prejudgment remedy, each Borrower and Guarantor waives the posting of any bond which might
otherwise be required. Agent shall have no obligation to clean-up or otherwise prepare the Collateral for sale. Agent and each Lender shall use reasonable care with respect to the Collateral in its possession
or under its control. The Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of Collateral in its possession if such Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which the Agent accords its own
property. Neither Agent nor any Lender shall have any other duty as to any Collateral in its possession or control or in the possession or control of any agent or nominee of Agent or such Lender, or any income thereon or as to the preservation of
rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining thereto. 

  
 134 

 (c) At any time or times that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Agent may,
in its discretion, and upon the direction of the Required Lenders, Agent shall (in each case subject to the Intercreditor Agreement), enforce the rights of any Borrower or any Guarantor against any Account Debtor, secondary obligor or other obligor
in respect of any of the Accounts or other Receivables. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Agent may, in its discretion, and upon the direction of the Required Lenders, Agent shall (in each case subject to the Intercreditor
Agreement), at such time or times (i) notify any or all Account Debtors, secondary obligors or other obligor in respect thereof that the Receivables have been assigned to Agent and that Agent has a security interest therein and Agent may direct
any or all Account Debtors, secondary obligors and other obligors to make payment of Receivables directly to Agent, (ii) extend the time of payment of, compromise, settle or adjust for cash, credit, return of merchandise or otherwise, and upon
any terms or conditions, any and all Receivables or other obligations included in the Collateral and thereby discharge or release the Account Debtor or any secondary obligors or other obligors in respect thereof without affecting any of the
Obligations, (iii) demand, collect or enforce payment of any Receivables or such other obligations, but without any duty to do so, and Agent and Lenders shall not be liable for any failure to collect or enforce the payment thereof nor for the
negligence of its agents or attorneys with respect thereto and (iv) take whatever other action Agent may deem necessary or desirable for the protection of its interests and the interests of Lenders. At any time that an Event of Default exists
or has occurred and is continuing, at Agent’s request, subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, all invoices and statements sent to any Account Debtor shall state that the Accounts and such other obligations have been assigned to Agent and are
payable directly and only to Agent and any Borrower shall deliver to Agent such originals of documents evidencing the sale and delivery of goods or the performance of services giving rise to any Accounts as Agent may reasonably require. Subject to
the Intercreditor Agreement, in the event any Account Debtor returns Inventory when an Event of Default exists or has occurred and is continuing, Borrower shall, upon Agent’s request, hold the returned Inventory in trust for Agent, segregate
all returned Inventory from all of its other property, dispose of the returned Inventory solely according to Agent’s instructions, and not issue any credits, discounts or allowances with respect thereto without Agent’s prior written
consent. 
 (d) To the extent that applicable law imposes duties on Agent or any Lender to exercise remedies in a commercially reasonable
manner (which duties cannot be waived under such law), each Borrower and Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that it is not commercially unreasonable for Agent or any Lender (i) to fail to incur expenses reasonably deemed significant by Agent or
any Lender to prepare Collateral for disposition or otherwise to complete raw material or work in process into finished goods or other finished products for disposition, (ii) to fail to obtain third party consents for access to Collateral to be
disposed of, or to obtain or, if not required by other law, to fail to obtain consents of any Governmental Authority or other third party for the collection or disposition of Collateral to be collected or disposed of, (iii) to fail to exercise
collection remedies against Account Debtors, secondary obligors or other Persons obligated on Collateral or to remove liens or encumbrances on or any adverse claims against Collateral, (iv) to exercise collection remedies against Account
Debtors and other Persons obligated on Collateral directly or through the use of collection agencies and other collection specialists, (v) to advertise dispositions of Collateral through publications or media of general circulation, whether or
not the 

  
 135 

 
Collateral is of a specialized nature, (vi) to contact other Persons, whether or not in the same business as any Borrower or Guarantor, for expressions of interest in acquiring all or any
portion of the Collateral, (vii) to hire one or more professional auctioneers to assist in the disposition of Collateral, whether or not the collateral is of a specialized nature, (viii) to dispose of Collateral by utilizing Internet sites
that provide for the auction of assets of the types included in the Collateral or that have the reasonable capability of doing so, or that match buyers and sellers of assets, (ix) to dispose of assets in wholesale rather than retail markets,
(x) to disclaim disposition warranties, such as title, possession or quiet enjoyment, (xi) to purchase insurance or credit enhancements to insure Agent or Lenders against risks of loss, collection or disposition of Collateral or to provide
to Agent or Lenders a guaranteed return from the collection or disposition of Collateral, or (xii) to the extent deemed appropriate by Agent, to obtain the services of other brokers, investment bankers, consultants and other professionals to
assist Agent in the collection or disposition of any of the Collateral. Each Borrower and Guarantor acknowledges that the purpose of this Section is to provide non-exhaustive indications of what actions or
omissions by Agent or any Lender would not be commercially unreasonable in the exercise by Agent or any Lender of remedies against the Collateral and that other actions or omissions by Agent or any Lender shall not be deemed commercially
unreasonable solely on account of not being indicated in this Section. Without limitation of the foregoing, nothing contained in this Section shall be construed to grant any rights to any Borrower or Guarantor or to impose any duties on Agent or
Lenders that would not have been granted or imposed by this Agreement or by applicable law in the absence of this Section. Agent, on behalf of the Lenders, may comply with any applicable state or federal law requirements in connection with a
disposition of the Collateral and compliance will not be considered to adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale of the Collateral. 

(e) [Reserved] 
 (f) Agent may
apply the cash proceeds of Collateral actually received by Agent from any sale, lease, foreclosure or other disposition of the Collateral to payment of the Obligations, in whole or in part and in such order as Agent may elect, whether or not then
due. Borrower and Guarantors shall remain liable to Agent and Lenders for the payment of any deficiency with interest at the highest rate provided for herein and, subject to Section 9.22, all costs and expenses of
collection or enforcement, including attorneys’ fees and expenses. 
 (g) Without limiting the foregoing, upon the occurrence of an
Event of Default, Agent may, at its option, establish such Reserves as Agent determines without limitation or restriction, notwithstanding anything to the contrary provided herein. 

10.3 Borrowers’ and Guarantors’ Obligations Upon Default. Subject to the Intercreditor Agreement,
upon the request of Agent after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Borrower and Guarantor will: 
 (a)
assemble and make available to Agent the Collateral and all books and records relating thereto at any place or places specified by Agent, whether at a Borrower’s or Guarantor’s premises or elsewhere; 

  
 136 

 (b) permit Agent, by Agent’s representatives and agents, to enter, occupy and use any
premises where all or any part of the Collateral, or the books and records relating thereto, or both, are located, to take possession of all or any part of the Collateral or the books and records relating thereto, or both, to remove all or any part
of the Collateral or the books and records relating thereto, or both, and to conduct sales of the Collateral, without any obligation to pay the Borrower or Guarantor for such use and occupancy. 

10.4 Grant of Intellectual Property License. For the purpose of enabling the Agent to exercise the rights and remedies under this
Section 10 at such time as Agent shall be lawfully entitled to exercise such rights and remedies, each Borrower and Guarantor hereby (a) grants to Agent, for the benefit of Agent and the Lenders, to the extent
licensable and to the extent that the same would not conflict with or, under applicable law and the terms of such agreement, result in the invalidity or breach of any agreements (other than any agreement between any Borrower or any Guarantor) or
otherwise result in the revocation, cancellation, abandonment, infringement, unenforceability, misappropriation or dilution or impair the validity or enforceability, of any rights in any Intellectual Property forming the subject thereof (including
rights to Intellectual Property which is the subject of Promotional Agreements), an irrevocable, nonexclusive license (exercisable without payment of royalty or other compensation to any Borrower or Guarantor) to use, license or sublicense any
Intellectual Property rights now owned or hereafter acquired by such Borrower or Guarantor, and wherever the same may be located, and including in such license access to all media in which any of the licensed items may be recorded or stored and to
all computer software and programs used for the compilation or printout thereof and (b) irrevocably agrees that, subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, Agent may sell any of such Borrower’s or Guarantor’s Inventory directly to any
person, including without limitation persons who have previously purchased the Borrower’s or Guarantor’s Inventory from such Borrower or Guarantor and in connection with any such sale or other enforcement of Agent’s rights under this
Agreement, may sell Inventory which bears any trademark owned by or licensed to such Borrower or Guarantor and any Inventory that is covered by any copyright owned by or licensed to such Borrower or Guarantor and Agent may finish any work in process
and affix any trademark owned by or licensed to such Borrower or Guarantor and sell such Inventory as provided herein.

(a) The validity, interpretation and enforcement of this Agreement and the other Financing Agreements and any dispute arising out of the
relationship between the parties hereto, whether in contract, tort, equity or otherwise, shall be governed by the internal laws of the State of New York but excluding any principles of conflicts of law or other rule of law that would cause the
application of the law of any jurisdiction other than the laws of the State of New York. 
 (b) Borrowers, Guarantors, Agent and Lenders
irrevocably consent and submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the State of New York and the State and Federal courts located in the Borough of Manhattan, County of New York, State of New York and the

other Financing Agreements or in any way connected with or related or incidental to the dealings of the parties hereto in respect of this Agreement or 

  
 137 

 
any of the other Financing Agreements or the transactions related hereto or thereto, in each case whether now existing or hereafter arising, and whether in contract, tort, equity or otherwise,
and agree that any dispute with respect to any such matters shall be heard only in the courts described above (except that Agent and Lenders shall have the right to bring any action or proceeding against any Borrower or Guarantor or its or their
property in the courts of any other jurisdiction which Agent deems necessary or appropriate in order to realize on the Collateral or to otherwise enforce its rights against any Borrower or Guarantor or its or their property). 

(c) Each Borrower and Guarantor hereby waives personal service of any and all process upon it and consents that all such service of process may
be made by certified mail (return receipt requested) directed to its address for notices pursuant to Section 13.3 and service so made shall be deemed to be completed five (5) days after the same shall have been so
deposited in the U.S. mails, or, at Agent’s option, by service upon any Borrower or Guarantor (or Administrative Borrower on behalf of such Borrower or Guarantor) in any other manner provided under the rules of any such courts. 

(d) BORROWERS, GUARANTORS, AGENT AND LENDERS EACH HEREBY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION
ARISING UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER FINANCING AGREEMENTS OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH OR RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THE DEALINGS OF THE PARTIES HERETO IN RESPECT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER FINANCING AGREEMENTS OR THE
TRANSACTIONS RELATED HERETO OR THERETO IN EACH CASE WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING, AND WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT, EQUITY OR OTHERWISE. BORROWERS, GUARANTORS, AGENT AND LENDERS EACH HEREBY AGREES AND CONSENTS THAT ANY SUCH CLAIM, DEMAND,
ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION SHALL BE DECIDED BY COURT TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY AND THAT ANY BORROWER, ANY GUARANTOR, AGENT OR ANY LENDER MAY FILE AN ORIGINAL COUNTERPART OF A COPY OF THIS AGREEMENT WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE CONSENT OF THE
PARTIES HERETO TO THE WAIVER OF THEIR RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY. 
 (e) Agent and Lenders shall not have any liability to any Borrower or
Guarantor (whether in tort, contract, equity or otherwise) for losses suffered by such Borrower or Guarantor in connection with, arising out of, or in any way related to the transactions or relationships contemplated by this Agreement, or any act,
omission or event occurring in connection herewith, unless it is determined by a final and non-appealable judgment or court order binding on such Agent or such Lender, as applicable, that the losses were the
result of acts or omissions constituting gross negligence or willful misconduct. In any such litigation, Agent and Lenders shall be entitled to the benefit of the rebuttable presumption that it acted in good faith and with the exercise of ordinary
care in the performance by it of the terms of this Agreement. Each Borrower and Guarantor: (i) certifies that neither Agent, any Lender, nor any representative, agent or attorney acting for or on behalf of Agent or any Lender has represented,
expressly or otherwise, that Agent and Lenders would not, in the event of litigation, seek to enforce any of the waivers provided for in this Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements and (ii) acknowledges that in entering into this
Agreement and the other Financing Agreements, Agent and Lenders are relying upon, among other things, the waivers and certifications set forth in this Section 11.1 and elsewhere herein and therein. 

  
 138 

 11.2 Waiver of Notices. Each Borrower and Guarantor hereby expressly waives demand,
presentment, protest and notice of protest and notice of dishonor with respect to any and all Instruments and Chattel Paper, included in or evidencing any of the Obligations or the Collateral, and any and all other demands and notices of any kind or
nature whatsoever with respect to the Obligations, the Collateral and this Agreement, except such as are expressly provided for herein. No notice to or demand on any Borrower or Guarantor which Agent or any Lender may elect to give shall entitle
such Borrower or Guarantor to any other or further notice or demand in the same, similar or other circumstances. Each Borrower and Guarantor hereby waives notice of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale or
other disposition of all or any part of the Collateral may be made. To the extent such notice may not be waived under applicable law, any notice made shall be deemed reasonable if sent to the Borrowers and Guarantors, addressed as set forth in
Section 13.3, at least ten days prior to (i) the date of any such public sale or (ii) the time after which any such private sale or other disposition may be made. 

11.3 Collateral Waivers. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, each Borrower and Guarantor waives all claims, damages, and
demands against Agent or any Lender arising out of the repossession, retention or sale of the Collateral, except such as arise solely out of the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of Agent or such Lender as finally determined by a
court of competent jurisdiction. To the extent it may lawfully do so, each Borrower and Guarantor absolutely and irrevocably waives and relinquishes the benefit and advantage of, and covenants not to assert against Agent or any Lender, any
valuation, stay, appraisal, extension, moratorium, redemption or similar laws and any and all rights or defenses it may have as a surety now or hereafter existing which, but for this provision, might be applicable to the sale of any Collateral made
under the judgment, order or decree of any court, or privately under the power of sale conferred by this Agreement, or otherwise. 
 11.4
Amendments and Waivers. 
 (a) Neither this Agreement nor any other Financing Agreement nor any terms hereof or thereof may be
amended, waived, discharged or terminated unless such amendment, waiver, discharge or termination is in writing signed by Agent and the Required Lenders or at Agent’s option, by Agent with the authorization or consent of the Required Lenders,
and, other than with respect to any provision of Section 12 of this Agreement, by any Borrower, and such amendment, waiver, discharge or termination shall be effective and binding as to all Lenders only in the specific
instance and for the specific purpose for which given; except, that, no such amendment, waiver, discharge or termination shall: 
 (i)
reduce the Interest Rate (including by amendment of such definition or any component definition) or any fees hereunder or the Fee Letter or extend the time of payment of principal, interest or any fees or reduce the principal amount hereunder of the
Term Loan, in each case without the consent of each Lender directly affected thereby;

extend any other date of scheduled payment without the consent of each Lender directly affected thereby;

Agreements or applicable law and except as permitted under Section 12.11(b) hereof), without the consent of Agent and all of the Lenders;

under this Agreement, without the consent of Agent and all of Lenders; 
 (vii) amend the definition of Borrowing Base, Borrowing Base II or
any component definition thereof if as a result thereof the amounts available to be borrowed by any Borrower would be increased (or, in the case of Borrowing Base II, the amount of required principal payments would be reduced), without the consent
of Agent and all Lenders, provided, that the foregoing shall not limit the discretion of Agent to change, establish or eliminate any Reserves; 

(viii) amend, modify or waive any provision of the definitions of Increased Reporting Period, Term Loan Commitment, Compliance Period or ABL
Excess Availability, without the consent of Agent and all of the Lenders; 
 (ix) [Reserved];

(xi) except as authorized pursuant to 12.15, subordinate the Obligations hereunder or the liens granted hereunder or under the other Financing

(xii) [Reserved]; 
 (xiii)
[Reserved]; 
 (xiv) amend, modify or waive any terms of this Section 11.4 hereof, without the consent of Agent
and all of the Lenders;

II beyond the levels specified in the definition of Borrowing Base and Borrowing Base II, respectively (and with respect to any advance rates specified therein as being “up to” a certain percentage, solely to the extent such increase would
increase such advance rate beyond such specified percentage) without the consent of Agent and all of the Lenders; or 
 (xvi) amend or
modify any provision of Section 10.1 (exclusive of any definitions set forth therein), without the consent of Agent and Required Lenders (except that waivers of any provision of Section 10.1shall

Lenders. 
 (b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 11.4(a) above, Agent may, in its
discretion and without the consent of the any Lenders, amend or otherwise modify the Borrowing Base, Borrowing Base II, the Reserves or any of their respective components which amendments or modifications have the effect of increasing the Borrowing
Base and Borrowing Base II, decreasing the Reserves or otherwise increasing the amounts available for borrowing hereunder to the extent that such amendment or modification is made to undo changes made after the date hereof and restore the Borrowing
Base, Borrowing Base II, Reserves or other components thereof back to a level or standard, as applicable, that exists on the date hereof if the reason for such reduction or increase established after the date hereof no longer exists, as determined
by Agent. 
 (c) Agent and Lenders shall not, by any act, delay, omission or otherwise be deemed to have expressly or impliedly waived any of
its or their rights, powers and/or remedies unless such waiver shall be in writing and signed as provided herein. Any such waiver shall be enforceable only to the extent specifically set forth therein. A waiver by Agent or any Lender of any right,
power and/or remedy on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to or waiver of any such right, power and/or remedy which Agent or any Lender would otherwise have on any future occasion, whether similar in kind or otherwise. 

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 11.4(a) above, in connection with any amendment,
waiver, discharge or termination, in the event that any Lender whose consent thereto is required shall fail to consent or fail to consent in a timely manner (such Lender being referred to herein as a
“Non-Consenting Lender”), but the consent of any other Lenders to such amendment, waiver, discharge or termination that is required are obtained, if any, then GACP shall have the right, but
not the obligation, at any time thereafter, and upon the exercise by GACP of such right, such Non-Consenting Lender shall have the obligation, to sell, assign and transfer to GACP or such Eligible Transferee
as GACP may specify, the Term Loan Outstandings or Term Loan Commitment of such Non-Consenting Lender and all rights and interests of such Non-Consenting Lender pursuant
thereto; provided, that, if GACP does not exercise such right, and Administrative Borrower presents an Eligible Transferee and requests in writing that GACP replace such Non-Consenting Lender with such
Eligible Transferee, then, subject to GACP’s consent rights as Agent contained in the within definition of “Eligible Transferee”, such Non-Consenting Lender shall have the obligation, to
sell, assign and transfer to such Eligible Transferee 

  
 141 

 
as Administrative Borrower has specified, the Term Loan Outstandings and Term Loan Commitment of such Non-Consenting Lender and all rights and interests of
such Non-Consenting Lender pursuant thereto. GACP shall provide the Non-Consenting Lender with prior written notice of its intent to exercise its right under this
Section, which notice shall specify on date on which such purchase and sale shall occur. Such purchase and sale shall be pursuant to the terms of an Assignment and Acceptance (whether or not executed by the
Non-Consenting Lender), except that on the date of such purchase and sale, GACP, or such Eligible Transferee specified by GACP, shall pay to the Non-Consenting Lender
(except as GACP and such Non-Consenting Lender may otherwise agree) the amount equal to: (i) the principal balance of the Term Loan Outstandings held by the
Non-Consenting Lender outstanding as of the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the effective date of such purchase and sale, plus (ii) amounts accrued and unpaid in respect
of interest and fees payable to the Non-Consenting Lender to the effective date of the purchase (but in no event shall the Non-Consenting Lender be deemed entitled to
any early termination fee (including without limitation the Early Termination Fee and any Make-Whole Amount)). Such purchase and sale shall be effective on the date of the payment of such amount to the
Non-Consenting Lender, and the Term Loan Outstandings and Term Loan Commitment of the Non-Consenting Lender shall terminate on such date and be transferred to such
Eligible Transferee. 
 (e) The consent of Agent shall be required for any amendment, waiver or consent affecting the rights or duties of
Agent hereunder or under any of the other Financing Agreements, in addition to the consent of the Lenders otherwise required by this Section and the exercise by Agent of any of its rights hereunder with respect to Reserves or Eligible Accounts,
Eligible Inventory, Eligible Equipment, Eligible Credit Card Receivables or Eligible Intellectual Property shall not be deemed an amendment to the advance rates provided for in this Section 11.4. Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary contained in Section 11.4(a) above, (i) in the event that Agent shall agree that any items otherwise required to be delivered to Agent as a condition of the Term Loan hereunder may be delivered after the
date hereof, Agent may, in its discretion, agree to extend the date for delivery of such items or take such other action as Agent may deem appropriate as a result of the failure to receive such items as Agent may determine or may waive any Event of
Default as a result of the failure to receive such items, in each case without the consent of any Lender and (ii) Agent may consent to any change in the type of organization, jurisdiction of organization or other legal structure of any
Borrower, Guarantor or any of their Subsidiaries and amend the terms hereof or of any of the other Financing Agreements as may be necessary or desirable to reflect any such change, in each case without the approval of any Lender. 

(f) [Reserved]. 
 11.5 Waiver
of Counterclaims. Each Borrower and Guarantor waives all rights to interpose any claims, deductions, setoffs or counterclaims of any nature (other than compulsory counterclaims) in any action or proceeding with respect to this Agreement, the
Obligations, the Collateral or any matter arising therefrom or relating hereto or thereto. 
 11.6 Indemnification. Each Borrower and
Guarantor shall, jointly and severally, indemnify and hold Agent and each Lender, and their respective officers, directors, agents, employees, advisors and counsel and their respective Affiliates (each such Person being an
“Indemnitee”), harmless from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs or 

  
 142 

 
expenses (including reasonable and documented out-of-pocket attorneys’ fees and expenses) imposed on, incurred
by or asserted against any of them in connection with any litigation, investigation, claim or proceeding commenced or threatened related to the negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery, enforcement, performance or administration of this
Agreement, any other Financing Agreements, or any undertaking or proceeding related to any of the transactions contemplated hereby or any act, omission, event or transaction related or attendant thereto, including amounts paid in settlement, court
costs, and the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees and expenses of counsel except that Borrowers and Guarantors shall not have any obligation under this
Section 11.6 to indemnify an Indemnitee with respect to a matter covered hereby resulting from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee (but without limiting the obligations of Borrowers or
Guarantors as to any other Indemnitee). To the extent that the undertaking to indemnify, pay and hold harmless set forth in this Section may be unenforceable because it violates any law or public policy, Borrowers and Guarantors shall pay the
maximum portion which it is permitted to pay under applicable law to Agent and Lenders in satisfaction of indemnified matters under this Section. To the extent permitted by applicable law, no Borrower or Guarantor shall assert, and each Borrower and
Guarantor hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this
Agreement, any of the other Financing Agreements or any undertaking or transaction contemplated hereby. Absent gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct, no Indemnitee referred to above shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by
unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements or the
transaction contemplated hereby or thereby. All amounts due under this Section shall be payable upon demand. The foregoing indemnity shall survive the payment of the Obligations and the termination or
non-renewal of this Agreement. This Section 11.6 shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any non-Tax claim. 
 SECTION 12. THE AGENT 

12.1 Appointment, Powers and Immunities. Each Secured Party irrevocably designates, appoints and authorizes GACP to act as Agent
hereunder and under the other Financing Agreements, including the Intercreditor Agreement, with such powers as are specifically delegated to Agent by the terms of this Agreement and of the other Financing Agreements, together with such other powers
as are reasonably incidental thereto. Agent (a) shall have no duties or responsibilities except those expressly set forth in this Agreement and in the other Financing Agreements, and shall not by reason of this Agreement or any other Financing
Agreement be a trustee or fiduciary for any Secured Party; (b) shall not be responsible to Secured Parties for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties contained in this Agreement or in any of the other Financing Agreements, or
in any certificate or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by any of them under, this Agreement or any other Financing Agreement, or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this
Agreement or any other Financing Agreement or any other document referred to or provided for herein or therein or for any failure by any Borrower or any Guarantor or any other Person to perform any of its obligations hereunder or thereunder; and
(c) shall not be responsible to Secured Parties for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it hereunder or under any other Financing Agreement or 

  
 143 

 
under any other document or instrument referred to or provided for herein or therein or in connection herewith or therewith, except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as
determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. Agent may employ agents and attorneys in fact and shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any such
agents or attorneys in fact selected by it in good faith. Agent may deem and treat the payee of any note as the holder thereof for all purposes hereof unless and until the assignment thereof pursuant to an agreement (if and to the extent permitted
herein) in form and substance satisfactory to Agent shall have been delivered to and acknowledged by Agent. 
 12.2 Reliance by Agent.
Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any certification, notice or other communication (including any thereof by telephone, telecopy, telex, telegram or cable) reasonably believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed or sent by or
on behalf of the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel, independent accountants and other experts selected by Agent. As to any matters not expressly provided for by this Agreement or any other Financing Agreement,
Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, hereunder or thereunder in accordance with instructions given by the Required Lenders or all of Lenders as is required in such circumstance, and such instructions
of such Agents and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding on all Lenders. 
 12.3 Events of Default.

 (a) Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default or other failure of a
condition precedent to the Term Loan hereunder, unless and until Agent has actual knowledge or same and has received written notice from a Lender or Borrower specifying such Event of Default or any unfulfilled condition precedent, and stating that
such notice is a “Notice of Default or Failure of Condition” (each a “Notice of Default or Failure of Condition”). In the event that Agent obtains actual knowledge or receives such a Notice of Default or Failure of
Condition, Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to the Lenders. Agent shall (subject to Section 12.7) take such action with respect to any such Event of Default or failure of condition precedent as shall be directed by
the Required Lenders to the extent provided for herein; provided, that, unless and until Agent shall have received such directions, Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect
to or by reason of such Event of Default or failure of condition precedent, as it shall deem advisable in the best interest of Lenders. 

(b) Except with the prior written consent of Agent, no Secured Party may assert or exercise any enforcement right or remedy in respect of the
Term Loan or other Obligations, as against any Borrower or Guarantor or any of the Collateral or other property of any Borrower or Guarantor. 

12.4 GACP in its Individual Capacity. At any time GACP (or any successor acting as Agent) is a Lender hereunder, then with respect to
its Term Loan Commitment and its Term Loan Outstandings hereunder from time to time, if any, so long as GACP (or such successor) shall be a Lender hereunder, it shall have the same rights and powers hereunder as any other Lender and may exercise the
same as though it were not acting as Agent, and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless the context otherwise indicates, include GACP (or such successor) in its individual capacity

  
 144 

 
as Lender hereunder. GACP (and any successor acting as Agent) and its Affiliates may (without having to account therefor to any Lender) lend money to, make investments in and generally engage in
any kind of business with Borrowers (and any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates) as if it were not acting as Agent, and GACP and its Affiliates may accept fees and other consideration from any Borrower or Guarantor and any of its Subsidiaries and
Affiliates for services in connection with this Agreement or otherwise without having to account for the same to Lenders. 
 12.5
Indemnification. 
 (a) Neither the Agent nor any of its Related Parties shall be (i) liable for any action taken or omitted to
be taken by such party or any of its Related Parties under or in connection with this Agreement or the other Financing Agreements (x) with the consent of or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the
Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Agent shall reasonably believe in good faith to be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in the Financing Agreements) (except to the extent the Agent or such Related Party shall have acted with gross
negligence or willful misconduct with respect thereto (such absence to be presumed unless otherwise determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment)) or (y) in the
absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct (such absence to be presumed unless otherwise determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by a final and non-appealable judgment) or
(ii) responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by any Loan Party or any officer thereof contained in this Agreement or any other Financing Agreement or in any certificate,
report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Financing Agreement or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or
sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Financing Agreement or for any failure of any Loan Party to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. 

(b) Lenders agree to indemnify Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by Borrowers hereunder and without limiting any obligations of Borrowers
hereunder) ratably, in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares of the Term Loan, for any and all claims of any kind and nature whatsoever that may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against Agent (including by any Lender) arising out of or by
reason of any investigation in or in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Financing Agreement or any other documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby
(including the costs and expenses that Agent is obligated to pay hereunder) or the enforcement of any of the terms hereof or thereof or of any such other documents, provided, that, no Lender shall be liable for any of the foregoing to the
extent it arises from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the party to be indemnified as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. The foregoing indemnity
shall survive the payment of the Obligations and the termination or non-renewal of this Agreement. 

12.6 Non-Reliance on Agent and Other Lenders. Each Secured Party agrees that it has,
independently and without reliance on Agent or any other Secured Party, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis of Borrowers and Guarantors and has made its own decision to enter into
this Agreement and that it will, independently and without reliance upon Agent or any other Secured Party, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own

  
 145 

 
analysis and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements. Agent shall not be required to keep itself informed as to the performance or
observance by any Borrower or Guarantor of any term or provision of this Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements or any other document referred to or provided for herein or therein or to inspect the properties or books of any Borrower or
Guarantor. Agent will use reasonable efforts to provide Lenders with any information received by Agent from any Borrower or Guarantor which is required to be provided to Lenders or deemed to be requested by Lenders hereunder and with a copy of any
Notice of Default or Failure of Condition received by Agent from any Borrower or any Lender; provided, that, Agent shall not be liable to any Lender for any failure to do so, except to the extent that such failure is attributable to
Agent’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required
to be furnished to Lenders by Agent or deemed requested by Lenders hereunder (including the documents provided for in Section 12.10 hereof), Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any
other credit or other information concerning the affairs, financial condition or business of any Borrower or Guarantor that may come into the possession of Agent. 

12.7 Failure to Act. Except for action expressly required of Agent hereunder and under the other Financing Agreements, Agent shall in
all cases be fully justified in failing or refusing to act hereunder and thereunder unless it shall receive further assurances to its satisfaction from Lenders of their indemnification obligations under Section 12.5 hereof
against any and all liability and expense that may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. 
 12.8
[Reserved] 
 12.9 Concerning the Collateral and the Related Financing Agreements. Each Secured Party authorizes and directs
Agent to enter into this Agreement and the other Financing Agreements. Each Secured Party agrees that any action taken by Agent or Required Lenders in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or the other Financing Agreements and the exercise by
Agent or Required Lenders of their respective powers set forth therein or herein, together with such other powers that are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be binding upon all of the Secured Parties. 

12.10 Field Audit, Examination Reports and other Information; Disclaimer by Lenders. By signing this Agreement, each Lender: 

(a) is deemed to have requested that Agent furnish such Lender (and Agent agrees that it will furnish to such Lender), promptly after it
becomes available, a copy of each field audit or examination report and report with respect to the Borrowing Base and Borrowing Base II prepared or received by Agent (each field audit or examination report and report with respect to the Borrowing
Base and Borrowing Base II being referred to herein as a “Report” and collectively, “Reports”), appraisals with respect to the Collateral and financial statements with respect to Parent and its Subsidiaries received
by Agent; 
 (b) expressly agrees and acknowledges that Agent (i) does not make any representation or warranty as to the accuracy of any
Report, appraisal or financial statement or (ii) shall not be liable for any information contained in any Report, appraisal or financial statement; 

  
 146 

 (c) expressly agrees and acknowledges that the Reports are not comprehensive audits or
examinations, that Agent or any other party performing any audit or examination will inspect only specific information regarding Borrowers and Guarantors and will rely significantly upon Borrowers’ and Guarantors’ books and records, as
well as on representations of Borrowers’ and Guarantors’ personnel; and 
 (d) agrees to keep all Reports confidential and strictly
for its internal use in accordance with the terms of Section 13.5 hereof, and not to distribute or use any Report in any other manner. 

12.11 Collateral Matters. 

(a) Agent may, at its option, from time to time, at any time on or after an Event of Default and for so long as the same is continuing, make
such disbursements and advances (“Special Agent Advances”) which Agent, in its sole discretion, (i) deems necessary or desirable either to preserve or protect the Collateral or any portion thereof or (ii) to enhance the
likelihood or maximize the amount of repayment by Borrowers and Guarantors of the Term Loan and other Obligations. All Special Agent Advances made pursuant to this Section 12.11 shall (i) be repaid within ninety
(90) days after the date such Special Agent Advance is made, except as Required Lenders may otherwise agree, (ii) be repayable on demand and together with all interest thereon shall constitute Obligations secured by the Collateral and
(iii) bear interest at the rate specified in clause (c)(ii) of the definition of “Interest Rate”. Without limitation of its obligations pursuant to Section 6.11, each Lender agrees that it shall make
available to Agent, upon Agent’s demand, in immediately available funds, the amount equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of each such Special Agent Advance. If such funds are not made available to Agent by such Lender, such Lender shall
be deemed a Defaulting Lender and Agent shall be entitled to recover such funds, on demand from such Lender together with interest thereon for each day from the date such payment was due until the date such amount is paid to Agent at the Federal
Funds Rate for each day during such period (as published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York or at Agent’s option based on the arithmetic mean determined by Agent of the rates for the last transaction in overnight Federal funds arranged
prior to 9:00 a.m. (New York City time) on that day by each of the three leading brokers of Federal funds transactions in New York City selected by Agent) and if such amounts are not paid within three (3) days of Agent’s demand, at
the highest Interest Rate provided for in Section 3.1 hereof. 
 (b) Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize Agent, at
its option and in its discretion to release any security interest in, mortgage or lien upon, any of the Collateral (i) upon termination of the Term Loan Commitments and Payment in Full of the Obligations (other than indemnification and other
contingent obligations not yet accrued at such time), or (ii) constituting property being sold or disposed of if Administrative Borrower or any Borrower or Guarantor certifies to Agent that the sale or disposition is made in compliance with
Section 9.7 hereof (and Agent may rely conclusively on any such certificate, without further inquiry), or (iii) constituting property in which any Borrower or Guarantor did not own an interest at the time the security
interest, mortgage or lien was granted or at any time thereafter, or (iv) having a value in the aggregate in any twelve (12) month period of less than $1,000,000, and to the extent Agent may release its security interest in and lien upon
any such Collateral pursuant to the sale or other disposition thereof, such sale or other disposition shall be deemed consented to by Lenders, or 

  
 147 

 
(v) if required or permitted under the terms of any of the other Financing Agreements, including any intercreditor agreement, or (vi) if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by
all of Lenders. Except as provided above, Agent will not release any security interest in, mortgage or lien upon, any of the Collateral without the prior written authorization of all of Lenders. Upon request by Agent at any time, Lenders will
promptly confirm in writing Agent’s authority to release particular types or items of Collateral pursuant to this Section. 
 (c)
Without in any manner limiting Agent’s authority to act without any specific or further authorization or consent by the Required Lenders, each Lender agrees to confirm in writing, upon request by Agent, the authority to release Collateral
conferred upon Agent under this Section. Agent shall (and is hereby irrevocably authorized by Lenders to) execute such documents as may be necessary to evidence the release of the security interest, mortgage or liens granted to Agent upon any
Collateral to the extent set forth above; provided, that, (i) Agent shall not be required to execute any such document on terms which, in Agent’s opinion, would expose Agent to liability or create any obligations or entail any
consequence other than the release of such security interest, mortgage or liens without recourse or warranty and (ii) such release shall not in any manner discharge, affect or impair the Obligations or any security interest, mortgage or lien
upon (or obligations of any Borrower or Guarantor in respect of) the Collateral retained by such Borrower or Guarantor. 
 (d) Agent shall
have no obligation whatsoever to any Secured Party or any other Person to investigate, confirm or assure that the Collateral exists or is owned by any Borrower or Guarantor or is cared for, protected or insured or has been encumbered, or that any
particular items of Collateral meet the eligibility criteria applicable in respect of the Term Loan hereunder, or whether any particular Reserves are appropriate, or that the liens and security interests granted to Agent pursuant hereto or any of
the Financing Agreements or otherwise have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected or enforced or are entitled to any particular priority, or to exercise at all or in any particular manner or under any duty of care,
disclosure or fidelity, or to continue exercising, any of the rights, authorities and powers granted or available to Agent in this Agreement or in any of the other Financing Agreements, it being understood and agreed that in respect of the
Collateral, or any act, omission or event related thereto, subject to the other terms and conditions contained herein, Agent may act in any manner it may deem appropriate, in its discretion, given Agent’s own interest in the Collateral as a
Lender and that Agent shall have no duty or liability whatsoever to any other Lender. 
 12.12 Agency for Perfection. Each Secured
Party hereby appoints Agent and each other Secured Party as agent and bailee for the purpose of perfecting the security interests in and liens upon the Collateral of Agent in assets which, in accordance with Article 9 of the UCC can be
perfected only by possession (or where the security interest of a secured party with possession has priority over the security interest of another secured party) and Agent and each Secured Party hereby acknowledges that it holds possession of any
such Collateral for the benefit of Agent as secured party. Should any Secured Party obtain possession of any such Collateral, such Lender shall notify Agent thereof, and, promptly upon Agent’s request therefor shall deliver such Collateral to
Agent or in accordance with Agent’s instructions. 

  
 148 

 12.13 Successor Agent. Agent may resign as Agent upon thirty (30) days’
notice to Lenders and Administrative Borrower. If Agent resigns under this Agreement, the Required Lenders shall appoint from among the Lenders a successor agent for Lenders. If no successor agent is appointed prior to the effective date of the
resignation of Agent, Agent may appoint, after consulting with Lenders and Administrative Borrower, a successor agent from among Lenders and Administrative Borrower. Upon the acceptance by the Lender so selected of its appointment as successor agent
hereunder, such successor agent shall succeed to all of the rights, powers and duties of the retiring Agent and the term “Agent” as used herein and in the other Financing Agreements shall mean such successor agent and the retiring
Agent’s appointment, powers and duties as Agent shall be terminated. After any retiring Agent’s resignation hereunder as Agent, the provisions of this Section 12 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken
or omitted by it while it was Agent under this Agreement. If no successor agent has accepted appointment as Agent by the date which is thirty (30) days after the date of a retiring Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring Agent’s
resignation shall nonetheless thereupon become effective and Lenders shall perform all of the duties of Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor agent as provided for above. 

12.14 Other Agent Designations. Agent may at any time and from time to time determine that a Lender may, in addition, be a “Co-Agent”, “Syndication Agent”, “Documentation Agent” or similar designation hereunder and enter into an agreement with such Lender to have it so identified for purposes of this
Agreement. Any such designation shall be effective upon written notice by Agent to Administrative Borrower of any such designation. Any Lender that is so designated as a Co-Agent, Syndication Agent,
Documentation Agent or such similar designation by Agent shall have no right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements other than those applicable to all Lenders as such.
Without limiting the foregoing, the Lenders so identified shall not have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender and no Lender shall be deemed to have relied, nor shall any Lender rely, on a Lender so identified as a Co-Agent, Syndication Agent, Documentation Agent or such similar designation in deciding to enter into this Agreement or in taking or not taking action hereunder. 

12.15 Intercreditor Agreement. Each Lender, by its acceptance of the benefits of the Collateral Documents creating Liens to secure the
Obligations: 
 (a) acknowledges that it has received a copy of the Intercreditor Agreement and is satisfied with the terms and provisions
thereof; 
 (b) authorizes and instructs Agent to (i) enter into the Intercreditor Agreement, as Agent and on behalf of such Lender,
(ii) to exercise all of Agent’s rights and to comply with all of its obligations under the Intercreditor Agreement and to take all other actions necessary to carry out the provisions and intent thereof and (iii) to take actions on its
behalf in accordance with the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement; 
 (c) agrees that it will be bound by and will take no actions contrary
to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement as if it was a signatory thereto; 
 (d) consents to the treatment of Liens provided for
under the Intercreditor Agreement and in furtherance thereof authorizes the Agent to subordinate the liens on the Collateral securing the Obligations (other than liens on Term Priority Collateral (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement)) in
accordance with the terms set forth in the Intercreditor Agreement; 

  
 149 

 (e) authorizes and directs Agent to execute and deliver, in each case on behalf of such
Secured Party and without any further consent or authorization from such Lender, any amendments, supplements or other modifications of the Intercreditor Agreement that the Borrowers may from time to time request to give effect to any incurrence,
amendment, or refinancing of any Indebtedness incurred pursuant to Section 9.9(t); and 
 (f) agrees that no Lender
shall have any right of action whatsoever against Agent as a result of any action taken by Agent pursuant to this Section 12.15 or in accordance with the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement. 

SECTION 13. TERM OF AGREEMENT; MISCELLANEOUS 

13.1 Term. 
 (a) This
Agreement and the other Financing Agreements shall become effective as of the date set forth on the first page hereof and shall continue in full force and effect for a term ending on the Maturity Date, unless sooner terminated pursuant to the terms
hereof. In addition, Borrowers may terminate this Agreement at any time upon ten (10) days prior written notice to Agent (or such shorter period as agreed to by Agent in its sole discretion) (which notice shall be irrevocable, unless such
notice is expressly conditioned on the occurrence of another transaction) and Agent may, at its option, and shall at the direction of Required Lenders, terminate this Agreement at any time upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event
of Default. Upon the Maturity Date or any other effective date of termination of the Financing Agreements, Borrowers shall pay all amounts and take all other actions necessary to cause Payment in Full to occur. All such payments required to cause
Payment in Full to occur in respect of the Obligations and cash collateral shall be remitted by wire transfer in Federal funds to the Agent Payment Account or such other bank account of Agent, as Agent may, in its discretion, designate in writing to
Administrative Borrower for such purpose. Interest shall be due until and including the next Business Day, if the amounts so paid by Borrowers to the Agent Payment Account or other bank account designated by Agent are received in such bank account
later than 2:00 p.m., New York City time (or such later time as Agent may agree in its sole discretion). Notwithstanding the above, Borrowers shall pay to Agent all unpaid Term Loan Outstandings (including accrued and unpaid interest thereon) on the
Maturity Date. 
 (b) No termination of the Term Loan Commitments, this Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements shall relieve or
discharge any Borrower or Guarantor of its respective duties, obligations and covenants under this Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements until all Obligations (other than indemnities and contingent Obligations which survive the
termination of this Agreement and the other Financing Agreements) have been fully and finally discharged and paid, and Agent’s continuing security interest in the Collateral and the rights and remedies of Agent and Lenders hereunder, under the
other Financing Agreements and applicable law, shall remain in effect until all such Obligations (other than indemnities and contingent Obligations which survive the termination of this Agreement and the other Financing Agreements) have been fully
and finally discharged and paid and Lenders have no further obligations hereunder 

  
 150 

 
(other than indemnities and contingent Obligations which survive the termination of this Agreement and the other Financing Agreements) (following which all security interests and liens shall be
released). Accordingly, each Borrower and Guarantor waives any rights it may have under the UCC to demand the filing of termination statements with respect to the Collateral and Agent shall not be required to send such termination statements to
Borrowers or Guarantors, or to file them with any filing office, unless and until this Agreement and all Term Loan Commitments of all Lenders shall have been terminated in accordance with its terms and all Obligations (other than indemnities and
contingent Obligations which survive the termination of this Agreement and the other Financing Agreements) paid and satisfied in full in immediately available funds. Upon such termination, Agent will contemporaneously provide (assuming Agent has
received written notice a reasonable amount of time prior to such termination) an appropriate payoff instrument, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Agent, which shall, among other things, give Borrowers and Guarantors authority to file
appropriate UCC-3 termination statements. 
 13.2 Interpretative Provisions. 

(a) All terms used herein which are defined in Article 1, Article 8 or Article 9 of the UCC shall have the meanings given

 (e) The word “including” when used in this Agreement shall mean “including, without
limitation” and the word “will” when used in this Agreement shall be construed to have the same meaning and effect as the word “shall”. 

(f) A Default or an Event of Default shall continue or be continuing until such Default or Event of Default is waived in accordance with
Section 11.4 or is cured in a manner satisfactory to Agent; provided that, such Event of Default is capable of being cured as determined by Agent. 

(g) All references to the term “good faith” used herein when applicable to Agent or any Lender shall mean, notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein or in the UCC, honesty in fact in the conduct or transaction concerned. Borrowers and Guarantors shall have the burden of proving any lack of good faith on the part of Agent or any Lender alleged by any
Borrower or Guarantor at any time. 

  
 151 

 (h) Any accounting term used in this Agreement shall have, unless otherwise specifically
provided herein, the meaning customarily given in accordance with GAAP, and all financial computations hereunder shall be computed unless otherwise specifically provided herein, in accordance with GAAP as consistently applied and using the same
method for inventory valuation as used in the preparation of the financial statements of Parent most recently received by Agent prior to the date hereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in GAAP or any interpretations or other
pronouncements by the Financial Accounting Standards Board or otherwise, the term “unqualified opinion” as used herein to refer to opinions or reports provided by accountants shall mean an opinion or report that is unqualified and

and including”, the words “to” and “until” each mean “to but excluding” and the word “through” means “to and including”. 

(j) Unless otherwise expressly provided herein, (i) references herein to any agreement, document or instrument shall be deemed to include
all subsequent amendments, modifications, supplements, extensions, renewals, restatements or replacements with respect thereto, but only to the extent the same are not prohibited by the terms hereof or of any other Financing Agreement, and
(ii) references to any statute or regulation are to be construed as including all statutory and regulatory provisions consolidating, amending, replacing, recodifying, supplementing or interpreting the statute or regulation. 

(k) The captions and headings of this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall not affect the interpretation of this
Agreement. 
 (l) This Agreement and other Financing Agreements may use several different limitations, tests or measurements to regulate the
same or similar matters. All such limitations, tests and measurements are cumulative and shall each be performed in accordance with their terms. 

(m) This Agreement and the other Financing Agreements are the result of negotiations among and have been reviewed by counsel to Agent and the
other parties, and are the products of all parties. Accordingly, this Agreement and the other Financing Agreements shall not be construed against Agent or Lenders merely because of Agent’s or any Lender’s involvement in their preparation.

 (n) Unless the context of this Agreement or any other Financing Agreement clearly requires otherwise, all references to a fiscal month,
fiscal quarter or fiscal year ending on a certain date shall be deemed to refer to the fiscal month, fiscal quarter or fiscal year, respectively, of Parent ending on or closest to such date; provided that this Section 13.2(n) shall not
apply to any references to fiscal months, fiscal quarters or fiscal years that are expressly stated to relate to any Person other than a Loan Party or a Subsidiary of a Loan Party.

to be invalid or unenforceable, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not invalidate this Agreement as a whole, but this Agreement shall be construed as though it did not contain the particular provision held to be invalid or unenforceable and
the rights and obligations of the parties shall be construed and enforced only to such extent as shall be permitted by applicable law. 

13.5 Confidentiality. 
 (a)
Agent and each Lender shall use all reasonable efforts to keep confidential, and shall use reasonable efforts to cause its agents (including accountants, auditors and filed examiners) to keep confidential, in accordance with its customary procedures
for handling confidential information and safe and sound lending practices, any non-public information supplied to it by any Borrower pursuant to this Agreement, provided, that, nothing contained herein
shall limit the disclosure of any such information: (i) to the extent required by statute, rule, regulation, subpoena or court order, (ii) to bank examiners and other regulators, auditors and/or accountants, in connection with any
litigation to which Agent or such Lender is a party, (iii) to any Lender or Participant (or prospective Lender or Participant), any Affiliate of any Lender, any Lender’s investors or funding sources so long as such Lender, Participant (or
prospective Lender or Participant), Affiliate, investor or funding source shall have been instructed to treat such information as confidential in accordance with this Section 13.5, or (iv) to counsel for Agent, any
Lender or any Participant (or any prospective Lender or Participant). Agent and Lenders shall not publicly disclose consummation of this Agreement prior to a public disclosure of the same by Ultimate Parent, Parent or any of their respective
Affiliates. 

  
 154 

 (b) In the event that Agent, any Lender receives a request or demand to disclose any
confidential information pursuant to any subpoena or court order, Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, agrees (i) to the extent permitted by applicable law or if permitted by applicable law, to the extent Agent or such Lender determines in
good faith that it will not create any risk of liability to Agent or such Lender, Agent or such Lender will promptly notify Administrative Borrower of such request so that Administrative Borrower may seek a protective order or other appropriate
relief or remedy and (ii) if disclosure of such information is required, disclose such information and, subject to reimbursement by Borrowers of Agent’s or such Lender’s expenses, cooperate with Administrative Borrower in the
reasonable efforts to obtain an order or other reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded to such portion of the disclosed information which Administrative Borrower so designates, to the extent permitted by applicable law or if
permitted by applicable law, to the extent Agent or such Lender determines in good faith that it will not create any risk of liability to Agent or such Lender. 

(c) In no event shall this Section 13.5 or any other provision of this Agreement, any of the other Financing
Agreements or applicable law be deemed: (i) to apply to or restrict disclosure of information that has been or is made public by any Borrower, Guarantor or any third party or otherwise becomes generally available to the public other than as a
result of a disclosure in violation hereof, (ii) to apply to or restrict disclosure of information that was or becomes available to Agent or any Lender (or any Affiliate of any Lender) on a
non-confidential basis from a Person other than a Borrower or Guarantor, (iii) to require Agent or any Lender to return any materials furnished by a Borrower or Guarantor to Agent or a Lender or prevent
Agent or a Lender from responding to routine informational requests in accordance with applicable industry standards relating to the exchange of credit information. The obligations of Agent and Lenders under this
Section 13.5 shall supersede and replace the obligations of Agent and Lenders under any confidentiality letter signed prior to the date hereof or any other arrangements concerning the confidentiality of information provided
by any Borrower or Guarantor to Agent or any Lender. 
 (d) Agent and Lenders may share with their respective Affiliates any information
relating to the Term Loan and Borrowers and Guarantors; provided, that Agent and each Lender shall be responsible for any breach of this Section 13.5 by its respective Affiliates. Agent and Lenders may disclose information relating to
the Term Loan to Gold Sheets and other similar bank trade publications with such information to consist of deal terms and other information customarily found in such publications. In addition, Agent and Lenders and their respective Affiliates may
otherwise use the corporate names, logos and other insignia of Borrowers and Guarantors in “tombstones” or other advertisements or public statements or other marketing materials of Agent and Lenders and their respective Affiliates.

any other document referred to herein or therein without the prior written consent of Agent and Lenders. Any such purported assignment without such express prior written consent 

  
 155 

 
shall be void. No Secured Party may assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement unless such assignment is in compliance with Section 13.7. The terms and
provisions of this Agreement and the other Financing Agreements are for the purpose of defining the relative rights and obligations of Borrowers, Guarantors, Agent and Secured Parties with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby and there
shall be no third party beneficiaries of any of the terms and provisions of this Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements. 
 13.7

(but not including for this purpose any assignments in the form of a participation), each of which assignees shall become a party to this Agreement as a Lender by execution of an Assignment and Acceptance; provided, that, (i) such
transfer or assignment will not be effective until recorded by Agent on the Register and (ii) Agent shall have received for its sole account payment of a processing fee from the assigning Lender or the assignee in the amount of $5,000. 

(b) Agent, acting for this purpose as any agent of the Borrowers, shall maintain at one of its offices a register of the names and addresses of
the Lenders, the Lender’s Term Loan Commitment and the Term Loan Outstandings owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). Agent shall also maintain a copy of each Assignment and
Acceptance delivered to and accepted by it and shall modify the Register to give effect to each Assignment and Acceptance. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error, and any Borrowers,
Guarantors, Agent and Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by Administrative Borrower and any Lender at any
reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. 
 (c) Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and recording, from and
after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and to the other Financing Agreements and, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned to it pursuant to
such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder and thereunder and the assigning Lender shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment and
Acceptance, relinquish its rights and be released from its obligations under this Agreement but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.4 and 11.6). 

(d) By execution and delivery of an Assignment and Acceptance, the assignor and assignee thereunder confirm to and agree with each other and
the other parties hereto as follows: (i) other than as provided in such Assignment and Acceptance, the assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any statements, warranties or
representations made in or in connection with this Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements or the execution, legality, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements furnished
pursuant hereto; (ii) the assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect 

  
 156 

 
to the financial condition of any Borrower, Guarantor or any of their Subsidiaries or the performance or observance by any Borrower or Guarantor of any of the Obligations; (iii) such
assignee confirms that it has received a copy of this Agreement and the other Financing Agreements, together with such other documents and information it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into such
Assignment and Acceptance; (iv) such assignee will, independently and without reliance upon the assigning Lender or Agent and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit
decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Financing Agreements; (v) such assignee appoints and authorizes Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement and
the other Financing Agreements as are delegated to Agent by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto; and (vi) such assignee agrees that it will perform in accordance with their terms all of
the obligations which by the terms of this Agreement and the other Financing Agreements are required to be performed by it as a Lender. Agent and Lenders may furnish any information concerning any Borrower or Guarantor in the possession of Agent or
any Lender from time to time to assignees and Participants. 
 (e) Each Lender may sell participations to one or more banks or other entities
in or to all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Financing Agreements; provided, that, (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, its Term Loan
Commitment hereunder) and the other Financing Agreements shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, and Borrowers, Guarantors, the other Lenders
and Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Financing Agreements, (iii) the Participant shall not have any rights under
this Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements (the Participant’s rights against such Lender in respect of such participation to be those set forth in the agreement executed by such Lender in favor of the Participant relating thereto)
and all amounts payable by any Borrower or Guarantor hereunder shall be determined as if such Lender had not sold such participation, and (iv) the Participant (unless an Affiliate of a Lender granting such participation) shall not be entitled
to require such Lender to take or omit to take any action hereunder except with respect to any amendment, modification or waiver that would extend the final scheduled maturity of the Term Loan, reduce the rate or extend the time for payment of
interest or fees thereon (except in connection with a waiver of applicability of any post default increase in interest rates) or reduce the principal amount of the Term Loan or increase the amount of the Participant’s participation over the
amount thereof then in effect (it being understood that a waiver of any Default or Event of Default or a change in the Borrowing Base or Borrowing Base II (in each case, or any component definitions thereof) or the calculation thereof shall not
constitute a change in the terms of such participation, and that any increase in the Term Loan Commitment or Term Loan Outstandings shall be permitted without the consent of any Participant if the Participant’s participation is not increased as
a result thereof). The Borrowers hereby agree that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 3.3 and Section 6.5 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including
the requirements under Section 6.5(f) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 6.5(f) shall be delivered to the participating Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a
Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (a) of this Section; provided that such Participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Section 6.5(g) as if it were an assignee
under paragraph (a) of this 

  
 157 

 
Section and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 3.3 and Section 6.5, 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. 

(f) Nothing in this Agreement shall prevent or prohibit any Lender from pledging its Pro Rata Share of the Term Loan Outstandings hereunder to
a Federal Reserve Bank in support of borrowings made by such Lenders from such Federal Reserve Bank; provided, that, no such pledge shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee for such Lender
as a party hereto. 
 (g) Borrowers and Guarantors shall assist Agent or any Lender permitted to sell assignments or participations under
this Section 13.7 in whatever manner reasonably necessary in order to enable or effect any such assignment or participation, including (but not limited to) the execution and delivery of any and all agreements, notes and
other documents and instruments as shall be reasonably requested and the delivery of informational materials, appraisals or other documents as shall be reasonably requested for, and the participation of relevant management in meetings and conference
calls as shall be reasonably requested with, potential Lenders or Participants. Borrowers shall certify the correctness, completeness and accuracy, in all material respects, of all descriptions of Borrowers and Guarantors and their affairs provided,
prepared or reviewed by any Borrower or Guarantor that are contained in any selling materials and all other information provided by it and included in such materials. 

13.8 Intercreditor Agreement. Each Lender hereby agrees that it will be bound by and will take no actions contrary to the provisions of
the Intercreditor Agreement or any intercreditor agreement entered into in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and hereby authorizes and instructs the Agent to enter into the Intercreditor Agreement and each other intercreditor agreement and
to subject the security interest and the Obligations to the provisions thereof. 
 13.9 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, the other
Financing Agreements, any supplements hereto or thereto, and any instruments or documents delivered or to be delivered in connection herewith or therewith represents the entire agreement and understanding concerning the subject matter hereof and
thereof between the parties hereto, and supersede all other prior agreements, understandings, negotiations and discussions, representations, warranties, commitments, proposals, offers and contracts concerning the subject matter hereof, whether oral
or written. In the event of any inconsistency between the terms of this Agreement and any schedule or exhibit hereto, the terms of this Agreement shall govern.

107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Act”) hereby notifies Borrowers and Guarantors that pursuant to the requirements of the Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record
information that identifies each Person or corporation who opens an account and/or enters into a business relationship with it, which information includes the name and address of Borrowers and Guarantors and other information that will allow such
Lender to identify such Person in accordance with the Act and any other applicable law. Borrowers and Guarantors are hereby advised that the making of the Term Loan hereunder is subject to satisfactory results of such verification. 

  
 158 

 13.11 Counterparts, Etc. This Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements may
be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of this Agreement or any of the other Financing
Agreements by telefacsimile or other electronic method of transmission shall have the same force and effect as the delivery of an original executed counterpart of this Agreement or any of such other Financing Agreements. Any party delivering an
executed counterpart of any such agreement by telefacsimile or other electronic method of transmission shall also deliver an original executed counterpart, but the failure to do so shall not affect the validity, enforceability or binding effect of
such agreement.

conditions set forth in the Intercreditor Agreement in all respects and, in the event of any conflict between the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement and this Agreement, the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement shall govern. Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, the lien and security interest granted to the Agent or the ABL Agent, as applicable, pursuant to any Financing Agreement or ABL Loan Document, and the exercise of any right or remedy in respect of the Collateral by
the Agent or the ABL Agent, as applicable hereunder, under any other Financing Agreement, or under the ABL Credit Agreement and any other agreement entered into in connection therewith are subject to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement and
in the event of any conflict between the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, this Agreement, any other Financing Agreement, the ABL Credit Agreement and any other agreement entered into in connection therewith, the terms of the Intercreditor
Agreement shall govern and control with respect to the exercise of any such right or remedy or the Loan Parties’ covenants and obligations.
