    	Page 12 of 22

    	 

    

 

		10.2	Upon or at any time after a Termination Event has occurred (whether or not we actually terminate
this Agreement) or following the expiry of any notice to terminate this Agreement, we may by written notice to you (and as well
as exercising any of our other rights under this Agreement or any other facility we have made available to you) do all or any of
the following (either at the same time or at separate times):

 

		10.2.1	we may increase your Fees and Charges by sending you revised Commercial Terms;

 

		10.2.2	if the Facility is confidential, disclose this Facility to your Customers and simultaneously or
at a later date cancel your agency to collect Invoices;

of attorney will survive such termination. You will continue to Notify Invoices to us during any period of notice to terminate
this Agreement and after the occurrence of a Termination Event until, in either case, repayment of all Debit Balances. Such rights
and obligations shall only cease when all monies due from you to us and from us to you have been paid in full.

 

		11.	REPURCHASE

 

		11.1	We may at any time reassign all or any Invoices and their Related Rights to you.

 

		11.2	The repurchase price payable by you to us for any Invoice repurchased by you will be its Notified
Value plus all relative Fees and Charges less all sums received in or towards discharge of the Invoice. If we require you to repurchase
all of your Invoices, then, for administrative convenience, their repurchase price will be the Debit Balance on the Current Account
after we have debited all Fees and Charges and any other monies and liabilities actually, contingently or prospectively owing by
you to us.

 

		11.3	Upon payment of the repurchase price for an Invoice, our rights in that Invoice and its Related
Rights will transfer to you. We will, if requested by you, at your expense, execute a formal re-assignment or retrocession to you
of any Invoices repurchased and give notice of such repurchase to your Customers.

  

		12.	COMMUNICATIONS BETWEEN US

 

		12.1	Unless we agree otherwise, you will Notify us of all Invoices, credit and debit notes, daily cash
collections (if you are an Invoice Discounting Client) and of any other information we may require electronically through the Website
or by any other electronic means which we may specify from time to time and in such format as we may require.

 

		12.2	We will provide regular statements to you relating to your accounts with us electronically through
the Website, unless we agree otherwise. It is your responsibility to access this information and other communications from us by

any item is incorrect, then, that statement will be binding upon you, unless we have made an obvious error.

 

		12.3	All information we provide to each other through the Website or by any other electronic means which
we may specify from time to time (unless corrupted as a result of technical failure) has the same status as if it had been in writing
or other printed form and signed by the provider and neither of us will challenge the validity of such information solely because
it was prepared, sent or received only in electronic form. Where this Agreement requires a consent, waiver or notice given by us
to be in writing such condition shall (unless it is notice to terminate or a variation of the Commercial Terms) be satisfied if
it is transmitted through the Website. We may require you to provide hard copies of any information provided by you electronically.

 

    	Page 14 of 22

balance on any accounts and the amounts due and owing by either of us to the other, unless we have made an obvious error and you

		12.5	We may accept and rely upon any signature, communication or information ostensibly sent by you
even though you may not actually have given or sent it or the sender or provider had no authority to send or provide it. This applies
whether the communication is written, oral or through the Website, or by any other electronic means which we may specify from time
to time.

 

		13.	VARIATIONS

  

		13.1	This Agreement incorporates the Operating Conditions in force from time to time. Variations to
these Operating Conditions can be made by us either by posting a copy of the varied Operating Conditions on the Website or, if
you do not use the Facility via the Website, by sending a hard copy of the varied Operating Conditions to you by post. Any variation
shall take effect immediately it is posted on the Website or a hard copy is posted to you. If you use the Website to use the Facility,
you are responsible for checking the Website on a regular and frequent basis to update yourself as to any variation to Operating
Conditions.

 

		13.2	If you do not wish to utilise the Facility with any varied Operating Conditions, you should immediately
cease to use the Facility. You confirm your acceptance of any varied Operating Conditions by submitting a Notification to us after
the date the varied Operating Conditions take effect.

 

		13.3	This Agreement incorporates the Commercial Terms in force from time to time. In addition to any
annual increase in the Fees and Charges in accordance with the RPI, we may vary the Fees and Charges or introduce a Fee and Charge
at any time after the end of any Minimum Term at any time. If we wish to do this we will give you at least one month’s
written notice of the proposed change(s) to the Fees and Charges which will come into effect at the end of the notice period.
We may unilaterally vary the Advance Rate, Approval Limit, Review Limit, proportion of your Export Invoices in respect of which
we will make Advances or any Reserve in accordance with this Agreement. If we agree to provide you with an additional Facility,
then, we will both agree the Commercial Terms which are to apply and we will provide these to you in hard copy form. Any letter
or other agreement adopting such additional Commercial Terms and/or Operating Conditions which is signed on behalf of each of us
shall be deemed to supplement the Commercial Terms and/or Operating Conditions from the date such letter or other agreement is
received by us or such other date we stipulate.

OPERATING CONDITIONS
- PART III

 

PROVISIONS RELATING TO INVOICE DISCOUNTING
CLIENTS ONLY

 

		1.	AGENCY APPOINTMENT

 

		1.1	We appoint you as our agent, at your expense, to administer Customers’ accounts and to collect
and enforce payment of Invoices for our benefit. You accept such appointment and agree to act promptly and efficiently in carrying
out your duties and to follow any instructions which we may give you. You will ensure that all Invoices are promptly and accurately
entered in your sales ledger. You will instruct your bankers to transfer to the Trust Account all credit transfers received by
you. You will not instruct a solicitor or other agent to collect any Invoice without our prior written approval and, then, only
on terms approved by us.

 

		1.2	You will open a Trust Account in respect of each Invoice Discounting, Currency and/or Export Facility
made available by us to you. All balances in the Trust Account are held on trust for us and you will notify the bank holding the
Trust Account of such trust. Until we serve notice on you to the contrary, you will direct your Customers to settle their Invoices
by making payment directly into that account. If you receive payment (even if it is made payable to us) you will immediately upon
receipt pay it into the Trust Account. Alternatively, if we require, you will deliver to us or pay into such bank account as we
may nominate all cash or other remittances endorsing the same where necessary. You will keep any payment received by you (other
than pursuant to a Scottish Invoice) as our agent, pending payment into the Trust Account or to any other account nominated by
us, separate from your own money. Any payment received by you in respect of a Scottish Invoice shall be trust property in accordance
with Clause 3.4 of the Agreement and you shall hold such payment separate from your own money pending payment into the Trust Account
or to any other account nominated by us.

 

		1.3	Where we have agreed that this Agreement is disclosed, then you will include the wording which
we will provide to you on each Invoice.

 

		1.4	Where we have agreed that this Agreement is confidential, then, for the moment, neither you nor
we will notify your Customers that you have assigned your Invoices to us. However, we may at any time vary or terminate your agency
to collect either some or all of your Invoices. We may:

 

	 	1.4.1	give (or require you to give) notice to some or all of your Customers of the assignment of their Invoices and the Related Rights to us;
	 	 	 
	 	1.4.2	either simultaneously with giving such notice or at a later date, instruct your Customers to pay us directly;
	 	 	 
	 	1.4.3	require you to send us a copy of your sales and purchase ledgers and such other records as we may require;
	 	 	 
	 	1.4.4	require you to forward all Invoices to us for issuing by us and we will, at your expense, administer Customers’ accounts.

 

    	Page 1 of 7

    	 

    

 

You will confirm to your Customers
the effect of any notice served on them and if your agency to collect Invoices has been terminated you will cease to hold yourself
out as our agent to collect Invoices. The provisions of condition 5 (Collections of Invoices) shall then apply.

 

		1.5	You will pay those costs specified in the Commercial Terms for maintaining the Trust Account.

 

		1.6	You hereby authorise us or any person nominated by us (which for the time being is R F Spencer
Limited) to contact your Customers to verify the amount of each Invoice due from them, the due date for payment and in the case
of overdue Invoices, the date when payment can be expected. You will assist us or our nominee in any way we require and you authorise
us and them to disclose their identity if required to do so by law or if requested by a Customer. Any nominee will act on your
behalf and will report the results of its investigations to us. Notwithstanding any audit of your sales ledger by us or our nominee
you are wholly responsible for:

 

	 	1.6.1	maintaining proper accounting records as required by law; and
	 	 	 
	 	1.6.2	complying with your obligations under this Agreement.

  

		2.	INFORMATION AND REPORTING REQUIREMENTS

the position of each Customer’s account on the last day of each month, including details of any outstanding credit balances.

 

		2.2	You will supply to us wherever possible via the Website (or at our option make available for inspection
by us) the following documents and/or information:

Monthly Minimum Fee; and

		6.2.1	we will debit to your Current Account on the last Working Day of each month any shortfall between
the actual Service Fee paid by you in that month and the monthly amount of any Minimum Fee; and

		6.2.2	this calculation will commence in the calendar month in which the Start Date occurs

 

		6.3	We will debit any Monitoring Fee, Audit Fee, Arrangement Fee, Facility Fee, Documentation Fee and
any Under Utilisation Fee specified in the Commercial Terms to your Current Account at the intervals agreed with you.

 

		6.4	At the end of the month in which each anniversary of this Agreement’s Start Date falls, the

during the preceding calendar month:

 

		6.5.1	your average Debit Balance; or

condition 6.5.3, where one has been agreed).

 

		6.6	If we provide services to a level or intensity which were not envisaged by us at the time of entry

view in Passport 6.0 simultaneously with the imposition thereof; provided, that to the extent such Reserves are not
available for Borrower to view in Passport 6.0, Lender shall provide written notice to Borrower prior to or simultaneously with
the imposition of such Reserves. Without limiting the foregoing, references to Reserves shall include the Dilution Reserve. In
no event shall the establishment of a Reserve in respect of a particular actual or contingent liability obligate Lender to make
advances to pay such liability or otherwise obligate Lender with respect thereto.

 

1.3          Protective
Advances.

 

Any contrary provision
of this Agreement or any other Loan Document notwithstanding, at any time (A) after the occurrence and during the continuance
of a Default or an Event of Default, or (B) that any of the other applicable conditions precedent set forth in Section 1.6
or otherwise are not satisfied, Lender hereby is authorized by Borrower, from time to time, in Lender’s sole discretion,
to make Revolving Loans to, or for the benefit of, Borrower, that Lender in its sole discretion deems necessary or desirable (1) to
preserve or protect the Collateral, or any portion thereof, or (2) to enhance the likelihood of repayment of the Obligations
(the Revolving Loans described in this Section 1.3 shall be referred to as “Protective Advances”). Any
contrary provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document notwithstanding, Lender may direct the proceeds of any Protective
Advance to Borrower or to such other Person as Lender determines in its sole discretion. All Protective Advances shall be payable
immediately upon demand.

1.4          Notice
of Borrowing; Manner of Revolving Loan Borrowing.

 

Borrower shall request
each Revolving Loan by submitting such request via Passport 6.0 (or, if requested by Lender, by delivering, in writing or via an
Approved Electronic Communication, a Notice of Borrowing substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto) (each such request a “Notice
of Borrowing”). Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including Sections 1.1 and 1.6, Lender shall,
except as provided in Section 1.3, deliver the amount of the Revolving Loan requested in the Notice of Borrowing for credit to
any account of Borrower at a bank in the United States of America as Borrower may specify (provided that such account
must be one identified on Section 3 of the Disclosure Schedule, as such Disclosure Schedule may be updated from time to time, as
an account to be used for funding of loan proceeds) by wire transfer of immediately available funds (i) on the same day if
the Notice of Borrowing is received by Lender on or before 11:00 a.m. Eastern Time on a Business Day, or (ii) on the immediately
following Business Day if the Notice of Borrowing is received by Lender after 11:00 a.m. Eastern Time on a Business Day, or is
received by Lender on any day that is not a Business Day. Lender shall charge to the Revolving Loan Lender’s usual and customary
fees for the wire transfer of each Loan.

 

1.5          Other
Provisions Applicable to Letters of Credit. Lender shall, on terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement (including the
terms and conditions set forth in Section 1.1 and Section 1.6), make Letters of Credit available to Borrower either by issuing
them, or by causing other financial institutions reasonably acceptable to Borrower to issue them supported by Lender’s guaranty
or indemnification; provided, that after giving effect to each Letter of Credit, the Letter of Credit Balance will
not exceed the Letter of Credit Limit. Borrower agrees to execute all documentation reasonably required by Lender and/or the issuer
of any Letter of Credit in connection with any such Letter of Credit. Borrower hereby unconditionally and irrevocably agrees to
reimburse Lender and/or the applicable issuer for each payment or disbursement made by Lender and/or the applicable issuer under
any Letter of Credit honoring any demand for payment made thereunder, in each case on the date that such payment or disbursement
is made if demand therefor is received by Borrower prior to 11:00 a.m. Eastern Time on a Business Day and otherwise on the following
Business Day. Borrower’s reimbursement obligations hereunder shall be irrevocable and unconditional under all circumstances,
including (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the
existence of any claim, set-off, defense or other right which Borrower may have at any time against a beneficiary named in a Letter
of Credit, any transferee of any Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such transferee may be acting), Lender, the applicable
issuer under any Letter or Credit, or any other Person, whether in connection with any Letter of Credit, this Agreement, any other
Loan Document, the transactions contemplated herein or any unrelated transactions (including any underlying transaction between
Borrower and the beneficiary named in any Letter of Credit), (iii) any lack of validity, sufficiency or genuineness of any document
which Lender or the applicable issuer has determined complies on its face with the terms of the applicable Letter of Credit, even
if such document should later prove to have been forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein
shall have been untrue or inaccurate in any respect, or (iv) the surrender or impairment of any security for the performance or
observance of any of the terms hereof. Any and all amounts paid by Lender in respect of a Letter of Credit will, at the election
of Lender, be treated for all purposes as a Revolving Loan, and bear interest, and be payable, in the same manner as a Revolving
Loan.

 

1.6          Conditions
of Making the Loans and Issuing Letters of Credit. Lender’s obligation to make any Loan or issue or cause any Letter
of Credit to be issued under this Agreement is subject to the following conditions precedent (as well as any other conditions set
forth in this Agreement or any other Loan Document), all of which must be satisfied in a manner reasonably acceptable to Lender
(and as applicable, pursuant to documentation which in each case is in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Lender) as of
each day that such Loan is made or such Letter of Credit is issued, as applicable:

such earlier date), both before and immediately after giving effect thereto; and (ii) no Default or Event of Default shall
be in existence, both before and immediately after giving effect thereto.

due) shall be payable in full on the Maturity Date or, if earlier, the date of any acceleration pursuant to Section 7.2. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, if, on the Maturity Date, there are any outstanding Letters of Credit, then on such date

Obligations (including reasonable estimated attorneys’ fees and other expenses) relating to said Letters of Credit or such
greater percentage or amount as Lender deems appropriate in its Permitted Discretion, pursuant to a cash pledge or other appropriate
agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender.

 

1.8          Prepayments
/ Voluntary Termination / Application of Prepayments.

 

(a)          Certain
Mandatory Prepayment Events. Borrower shall be required to prepay the outstanding principal balance of the Revolving Loans
within five (5) Business Days of the date of each and every Prepayment Event (and within five (5) Business Days of any date thereafter
on which proceeds pertaining thereto are received by Borrower), in each case without any demand or notice from Lender or any other
Person, all of which is hereby expressly waived by Borrower, in the amount of 100% of the cash proceeds (net of documented reasonable
out-of-pocket costs and expenses, including Taxes and any reserves established in connection therewith, incurred in connection
with the collection of such proceeds, in each case payable to Persons that are not Affiliates of Borrower) received by Borrower
with respect to such Prepayment Event; provided that with respect to a Prepayment Event of the type described in
clauses (i) and (ii) of the definition of Prepayment Event, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the extent
that the proceeds received by such Person as a result of such Prepayment Event do not exceed $250,000 in the aggregate during any
Fiscal Year and are actually applied within 180 days of such receipt to (x) replace the property or assets subject to such Prepayment
Event with property and/or assets performing the same or similar functions or (y) repair, replace or reconstruct property and or
assets damaged by such Prepayment Event, such proceeds shall not be required to prepay the Loans pursuant to this Section 1.8(a)
(pending such reinvestment such proceeds shall be segregated by Borrower for such purpose; provided to the extent
such proceeds are not reinvested within such 180 day period, or any Default or Event of Default occurs during such period, Lender
shall apply such proceeds as a prepayment of the Revolving Loans as provided in this Section 1.8(a)).

 

(b)          Voluntary
Termination of Loan Facilities. Borrower may, on at least 10 days prior written notice (which notice may be conditioned upon
the closing of another transaction) received by Lender, permanently terminate the Loan facilities by repaying all of the outstanding
Obligations, including all principal, interest and fees with respect to the Revolving Loans, and any Early Termination Fee in the
amount specified in the Fee Letter. Following Lender’s receipt of such notice and its receipt of a request from Borrower
(either contained in such notice or made separately thereafter), Lender agrees to provide Borrower with a payoff letter setting
forth the terms and conditions upon which the Obligations shall be satisfied in full and the Loan Documents shall be terminated,
and Lender shall provide all reasonably requested Lien releases, terminations and other similar documentation. If, on the date
of a voluntary termination pursuant to this Section 1.8(b), there are any outstanding Letters of Credit, then on such date, and

Letter of Credit Balance to secure all of the Obligations (including reasonable estimated attorneys’ fees and other expenses)
relating to said Letters of Credit, pursuant to a cash pledge or other appropriate agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory

1.9          Obligations
Unconditional.

 

(a)          The
payment and performance of all Obligations shall constitute the absolute and unconditional obligations of Borrower, and shall be
independent of any defense or rights of set-off, recoupment or counterclaim which Borrower or any other Person might otherwise
have against Lender or any other Person. All payments required (other than by Lender) by this Agreement and/or the other Loan Documents
shall be made in Dollars (unless payment in a different currency is expressly provided otherwise in the applicable Loan Document)
and paid free of any deductions or withholdings for any taxes or other amounts and without abatement, diminution or set-off. If
Borrower is required by applicable law to make such a deduction or withholding from a payment under this Agreement or under any
other Loan Document, Borrower shall pay to Lender such additional amount as is necessary to ensure that, after the making of such
deduction or withholding, Lender receives (free from any liability in respect of any such deduction or withholding) a net sum equal
to the sum which it would have received and so retained had no such deduction or withholding been made or required to be made.
Borrower shall (i) pay the full amount of any deduction or withholding, which it is required to make by law, to the relevant authority
within the payment period set by applicable law, and (ii) promptly after any such payment, deliver to Lender an original (or certified
copy) official receipt issued by the relevant authority in respect of the amount withheld or deducted or, if the relevant authority
does not issue such official receipts, such other evidence of payment of the amount withheld or deducted as is reasonably acceptable
to Lender.

 

(b)          If,
at any time and from time to time after the Closing Date (or at any time before or after the Closing Date with respect to (x) the
Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all rules, regulations, guidelines or directives thereunder or issued
in connection therewith, or (y) all rules, guidelines or directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements,
the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States regulatory authorities,
in each case for purposes of this clause (y) pursuant to Basel III, regardless of the date enacted, adopted or issued), (i) any
change in any existing law, regulation, treaty or directive or in the interpretation or application thereof, (ii) any new law,
regulation, treaty or directive enacted or application thereof, or (iii) compliance by Lender with any directive (whether or not
having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency (A) subjects Lender to any tax, levy,
impost, deduction, assessment, charge or withholding of any kind whatsoever with respect to any Loan Document, or changes the basis
of taxation of payments to Lender of any amount payable thereunder (except for net income taxes, or franchise taxes imposed in
lieu of net income taxes, imposed generally by federal, state, local or other taxing authorities with respect to interest or fees
payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document or changes in the rate of tax on the overall net income of Lender or its members),
in either case, which was not applicable to Lender as of the Closing Date (or with respect to any assignee of Lender or Participant,
as of the date of such assignee’s assignment or Participant’s purchase of its participation interest) or (B) imposes
on Lender any other condition or increased cost in connection with the transactions contemplated thereby or participations therein,
and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to Lender of making or continuing any Loan or Letter of Credit or
to reduce any amount receivable hereunder or under any other Loan Documents, then, in any such case, Borrower shall promptly pay
to Lender, after being notified to do so by Lender, any additional amounts necessary to compensate Lender, on an after-tax basis,
for such additional cost or reduced amount as reasonably determined by Lender, which notice shall include a detailed calculation
and explanation of the cause of such additional amounts. Each such notice of additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section
1.9(b) submitted by Lender to Borrower shall, absent demonstrable error, be final, conclusive and binding for all purposes. Borrower
shall not be required to compensate Lender for any amount incurred more than 120 days prior to the date that Lender demands compensation
in accordance herewith.

(c)          This
Section 1.9 shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of the expiration or any termination of this Agreement.

 

1.10        Reversal
of Payments. To the extent that any payment or payments made to or received by Lender pursuant to this Agreement or any other
Loan Document are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside, or required to be repaid to any
trustee, receiver or other Person under any state, federal or other bankruptcy or other such applicable law, then, to the extent
thereof, such amounts (and all Liens, rights and remedies therefore) shall be revived as Obligations (secured by all such Liens)
and continue in full force and effect under this Agreement and under the other Loan Documents as if such payment or payments had
not been received by Lender. This Section 1.10 shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of the expiration
or any termination of this Agreement.

 

		2.	INTEREST AND
FEES; LOAN ACCOUNT.

 

2.1          Interest.  All
Loans and other monetary Obligations shall bear interest at the interest rate(s) set forth in Section 3 of Schedule A,
and accrued interest shall be payable (i) on the first day of each month in arrears, (ii) upon a prepayment of such Loan in accordance
with Section 1.8, and (iii) on the Maturity Date; provided, that after the occurrence and during the continuation
of an Event of Default, all Loans and other monetary Obligations shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to three (3) percentage
points in excess of the rate otherwise applicable thereto (the “Default Rate”), and all such interest
shall be payable on demand. Changes in the interest rate shall be effective as of the date of any change in the Base Rate.

 

2.2           Fees.
Borrower shall pay Lender the fees set forth on the Fee Letter on the dates set forth therein, which fees are in addition to all
fees and other sums payable by Borrower or any other Person to Lender under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document, and,
in each case are not refundable once paid.

 

2.3          Computation
of Interest and Fees. All interest and fees shall be calculated daily on the outstanding monetary Obligations based on the
actual number of days elapsed in a year of 360 days.

 

2.4          Loan
Account; Monthly Accountings. Lender shall maintain a loan account for Borrower reflecting all outstanding Loans and the Letters
of Credit Balance, along with interest accrued thereon and such other items reflected therein (the “Loan Account”),
and shall provide Borrower with a monthly accounting reflecting the activity in the Loan Account, viewable by Borrower on Passport
6.0. Each accounting shall be deemed correct, accurate and binding on Borrower and an account stated (except for reverses and reapplications
of payments made and corrections of errors with respect to which Lender will endeavor to promptly notify Borrower in writing),
unless Borrower notifies Lender in writing to the contrary within thirty days after such account is made available to Borrower,
describing the nature of any alleged errors or omissions. However, Lender’s failure to maintain the Loan Account or to provide
any such accounting shall not affect the legality or binding nature of any of the Obligations. Interest, fees and other monetary
Obligations due and owing under this Agreement (including fees and other amounts paid by Lender to issuers of Letters of Credit)
may, in Lender’s discretion, be charged to the Loan Account, and will thereafter be deemed to be Revolving Loans and will
bear interest at the same rate as other Revolving Loans.

 

    	-6-

    	 

    

 

	Loan and Security Agreement

 

2.5          Further
Obligations; Maximum Lawful Rate. With respect to all monetary Obligations for which the interest rate is not otherwise specified
herein (whether such Obligations arise hereunder or under any other Loan Document, or otherwise), such Obligations shall, beginning
on the date such Obligations become due, bear interest at the rate(s) in effect from time to time with respect to the Revolving
Loans and, except as set forth on the Fee Letter, shall be payable upon demand by Lender. In no event shall the interest charged
with respect to any Loan or any other Obligation exceed the maximum amount permitted under applicable law. Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary herein or elsewhere, if at any time the rate of interest payable or other amounts hereunder or under any other
Loan Document (the “Stated Rate”) would exceed the highest rate of interest or other amount permitted
under any applicable law to be charged (the “Maximum Lawful Rate”), then for so long as the Maximum Lawful
Rate would be so exceeded, the rate of interest and other amounts payable shall be equal to the Maximum Lawful Rate; provided,
that if at any time thereafter the Stated Rate is less than the Maximum Lawful Rate, Borrower shall, to the extent permitted by
applicable law, continue to pay interest and such other amounts at the Maximum Lawful Rate until such time as the total interest
and other such amounts received is equal to the total interest and other such amounts which would have been received had the Stated
Rate been (but for the operation of this provision) the interest rate payable or such other amounts payable. Thereafter, the interest
rate and such other amounts payable shall be the Stated Rate unless and until the Stated Rate again would exceed the Maximum Lawful
Rate, in which event this provision shall again apply. In no event shall the total interest or other such amounts received by Lender
exceed the amount which it could lawfully have received had the interest and other such amounts been calculated for the full term
hereof at the Maximum Lawful Rate. If, notwithstanding the prior sentence, Lender has received interest or other such amounts hereunder
in excess of the Maximum Lawful Rate, such excess amount shall be applied to the reduction of the principal balance of the Loans
or to other Obligations (other than interest) payable hereunder, and if no such principal or other Obligations are then outstanding,
such excess or part thereof remaining shall be paid to Borrower. In computing interest payable with reference to the Maximum Lawful
Rate applicable to any Lender, such interest shall be calculated at a daily rate equal to the Maximum Lawful Rate divided by the
number of days in the year in which such calculation is made.

 

		3.	SECURITY INTEREST GRANT / POSSESSORY COLLATERAL /
FURTHER ASSURANCES.

 

3.1          Grant
of Security Interest. To secure the full payment and performance of all of the Obligations, Borrower hereby collaterally assigns

of Lender or any agent or any parent, Affiliate or Subsidiary of Lender or any Participant with Lender in the Loans, for any purpose

to, substitutions for, and replacements, products and Proceeds of the foregoing property, including proceeds of all insurance policies

Collateral. Promptly, but in any event no later than five Business Days after Borrower’s receipt of any portion of the
Collateral in an amount in excess of $250,000 evidenced by an Instrument or Document, including any Tangible Chattel Paper and
any Investment Property consisting of certificated securities, Borrower shall deliver the original thereof to Lender together with
an appropriate endorsement or other specific evidence of assignment thereof to Lender (in form and substance reasonably acceptable
to Lender). If an endorsement or assignment of any such items shall not be made for any reason, Lender is hereby irrevocably authorized,
as attorney and agent-in-fact (coupled with an interest) for Borrower, to endorse or assign the same on Borrower’s behalf.

 

3.3          Further
Assurances. Borrower shall, at its own cost and expense, promptly and duly take, execute, acknowledge and deliver (and/or cause
such other applicable Person to take, execute, acknowledge and deliver) all such further acts, documents, agreements and instruments
as may from time to time be necessary or desirable or as Lender may from time to time reasonably require in order to (a) carry
out the intent and purposes of the Loan Documents and the transactions contemplated thereby, (b) establish, create, preserve, protect
and perfect a first priority lien (subject only to Permitted Liens) in favor of Lender in all real and personal property (wherever
located) from time to time owned by Borrower and in all capital stock and other equity from time to time owned by Borrower, (c)
cause each Domestic Subsidiary of Borrower to guarantee all of the Obligations, all pursuant to documentation that is in form and
substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender, and (d) facilitate the collection of the Collateral. Without limiting the foregoing,
Borrower shall, at its own cost and expense, promptly and duly take, execute, acknowledge and deliver (and/or cause such other
applicable Person to take, execute, acknowledge and deliver) to Lender all promissory notes, security agreements, agreements with
landlords, mortgagees and processors and other bailees, subordination and intercreditor agreements and other agreements, instruments
and documents, in each case in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Lender, as Lender may request from time to time to perfect,
protect, and maintain Lender’s security interests in the Collateral, including the required priority thereof, and to fully
carry out the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents.

 

3.4          UCC
Financing Statements. Borrower authorizes Lender to file, transmit, or communicate, as applicable, from time to time, Uniform
Commercial Code financing statements, along with amendments and modifications thereto, in all filing offices selected by Lender
in its Permitted Discretion, listing Borrower as the debtor and Lender as the secured party, and describing the collateral covered
thereby in such manner as Lender may elect, including using descriptions such as “all personal property of debtor”
or “all assets of debtor” or words of similar effect, in each case without Borrower’s signature. Borrower also
hereby ratifies its authorization for Lender to have filed in any filing office any financing statements filed prior to the date
hereof.

		4.	CERTAIN PROVISIONS REGARDING ACCOUNTS, INVENTORY, COLLECTIONS, APPLICATIONS OF PAYMENTS, INSPECTION RIGHTS, AND APPRAISALS.

 

4.1          Lock
Boxes and Blocked Accounts. Borrower hereby represents and warrants that all Deposit Accounts and all other depositary and
other accounts maintained by Borrower as of the Closing Date are described in Section 3 of the Disclosure Schedule, which description
includes for each such account the name of Borrower maintaining such account, the name, of the financial institution at which such
account is maintained, the account number, and the purpose of such account. After the Closing Date, no Borrower shall open any
new Deposit Accounts or any other depositary or other accounts without the prior written consent of Lender and without updating
Section 3 of the Disclosure Schedule to reflect such Deposit Accounts or other accounts, as applicable. No Deposit Accounts or
other accounts of Borrower shall at any time constitute a Restricted Account other than accounts expressly indicated on Section
3 of the Disclosure Schedule as being a Restricted Account (and Borrower hereby represents and warrants that each such account
shall at all times meet the requirements set forth in the definition of Restricted Account to qualify as a Restricted Account).
Borrower will, at its expense, establish (and revise from time to time as Lender may reasonably require) procedures acceptable
to Lender, in Lender’s Permitted Discretion, for the collection of checks, wire transfers and all other proceeds of all of
Borrower’s Accounts and other Collateral (“Collections”), which shall include (i) directing
all Account Debtors to send all Account proceeds directly to a post office box designated by Lender either in the name of Borrower
(but as to which Lender has exclusive access) or, at Lender’s option, in the name of Lender (a “Lock Box”),
and/or (ii) depositing all Collections received by Borrower into one or more bank accounts maintained in the name of Borrower
(but as to which Lender has exclusive access) or, at Lender’s option, in the name of Lender (each, a “Blocked
Account”), under an arrangement reasonably acceptable to Lender with a depository bank reasonably acceptable to Lender,
pursuant to which all funds deposited into each Blocked Account are to be transferred to Lender in such manner, and with such frequency,
as Lender shall specify, and/or (iii) a combination of the foregoing. Borrower agrees to execute, and to cause its depository
banks and other account holders to execute, such Lock Box and Blocked Account control agreements and other documentation as Lender
shall reasonably require from time to time in connection with the foregoing, all in form and substance reasonably acceptable to
Lender, and in any event such arrangements and documents must be in place on the date hereof with respect to accounts in existence
on the date hereof, or prior to any such account being opened with respect to any such account opened after the date hereof, in
each case excluding Restricted Accounts. The proceeds of Loans shall be paid into Borrower’s operating account(s) identified
on the Authorized Accounts form in the form of Exhibit D annexed hereto, which Borrower shall complete, execute and deliver to
Lender prior to the Closing Date. If on any date the aggregate amount of Collections held by Lender (in the Blocked Account or
otherwise) exceeds the sum of the outstanding balance of all Revolving Loans, then Lender shall promptly remit on a daily basis
(or upon such other frequency as Lender and Borrower may agree from time to time) the amount of any such excess to Borrower’s
operating account(s).

 

4.2          Application
of Payments. All amounts paid to or received by Lender in respect of the monetary Obligations, from whatever source (whether
from Borrower or any other Borrower pursuant to such other Borrower’s guaranty of the Obligations, any realization upon any
Collateral, or otherwise) shall, unless otherwise directed by Borrower with respect to any particular payment (unless an Event
of Default shall then be continuing, in which event Lender may disregard Borrower’s direction), be applied by Lender to the
Obligations in such order as Lender may elect, and absent such election shall be applied as follows:

 

    	-9-

    	 

    

 

	Loan and Security Agreement

 

(i) FIRST, to
reimburse lender for all out-of-pocket costs and expenses, and all indemnified losses, incurred by Lender which are reimbursable
to Lender in accordance with this Agreement and/or any of the other Loan Documents.

 

(ii) SECOND, to
any accrued but unpaid interest on any Protective Advances,

 

(iii) THIRD, to
the outstanding principal of any Protective Advances,

 

(iv) FOURTH, to
any accrued but unpaid fees owing to Lender under this Agreement and/or any other Loan Documents,

 

(v) FIFTH, to
any unpaid accrued interest on the Obligations,

 

(vi) SIXTH, to
the outstanding principal of the Revolving Loans, and, to the extent required by this Agreement, to cash collateralize the Letter
of Credit Balance, and

 

(vii) SEVENTH,
to the payment of any other outstanding Obligations; and after payment in full in cash of all of the outstanding monetary Obligations,
and further amounts paid to or received by Lender in respect of the Obligations (so long as no monetary Obligations are outstanding)
shall be paid over to Borrower or such other Person(s) as may be legally entitled thereto.

 

For purposes of determining the Borrowing
Base, such amounts will be credited to the Loan Account and the Collateral balances to which they relate upon Lender’s receipt
of an advice from Lender’s Bank (set forth in section 5 of Schedule A) that such items have been credited to Lender’s
account at Lender’s Bank (or upon Lender’s deposit thereof at Lender’s Bank in the case of payments received
by Lender in kind), in each case subject to final payment and collection. However, for purposes of computing interest on the Obligations,
such items shall be deemed applied by Lender one (1) Business Day after Lender’s receipt of advice of deposit thereof at
Lender’s Bank.

 

4.3          Notification;
Verification. Lender or its designee may, from time to time, (i) whether or not a Default or Event of Default has occurred,
verify directly with the Account Debtors of Borrower (or by any manner and through any medium it considers advisable) the validity,
amount and other matters relating to the Accounts and Chattel Paper of Borrower, by means of mail, telephone or otherwise, either
in the name of Borrower or Lender or such other name as Lender may choose; (ii) if Lender in its Permitted Discretion determines
that the Collateral may be insufficient to fully secure the Obligations or that the prospect of payment or performance of the Obligations
is impaired (x) notify Account Debtors of Borrower that Lender has a security interest in the Accounts of Borrower and direct such
Account Debtors to make payment thereof directly to Lender; each such notification to be sent on the Letterhead of Borrower and
substantially in the form of Exhibit E annexed hereto; and (y) demand, collect or enforce payment of any Accounts and Chattel
Paper (but without any duty to do so). Borrower hereby authorizes Account Debtors to make payments directly to Lender and to rely
on notice from Lender without further inquiry. Lender may on behalf of Borrower endorse all items of payment received by Lender
that are payable to Borrower for the purposes described above.

4.4          Power
of Attorney. Borrower hereby grants to Lender an irrevocable power of attorney, coupled with an interest, authorizing and permitting
Lender (acting through any of its officers, employees, attorneys or agents), at Lender's option, but without obligation, with or
without notice to Borrower, and at Borrower's expense, to do any or all of the following, in Borrower's name or otherwise: 

 

(a)          (i)
execute on behalf of Borrower any documents that Lender may, in its sole discretion, deem advisable in order to perfect, protect
and maintain Lender's security interests, and priority thereof, in the Collateral (including such financing statements and continuation
financing statements, and amendments or other modifications thereto, as Lender shall deem necessary or appropriate); (ii) endorse
Borrower's name on all checks and other forms of remittances received by Lender; (iii) pay any sums required on account of Borrower's
taxes or to secure the release of any Liens therefor; (iv) pay any amounts necessary to obtain, or maintain in effect, any of the
insurance described in Section 5.14; (v) receive and otherwise take control in any manner of any cash or non-cash items of payment
or Proceeds of Collateral; (vi) receive, open and process all mail addressed to Borrower at any post office box/lockbox maintained
by Lender for Borrower or at any other business premises of Lender with Collections to be promptly transferred to the Blocked Account
and any mail unrelated to Collections to be promptly remitted to Borrower along with copies of all other mail addressed to Borrower
and received by Lender, and (vii) endorse or assign to Lender on Borrower's behalf any portion of Collateral evidenced by an agreement,
Instrument or Document if an endorsement or assignment of any such items is not made by Borrower pursuant to Section 3.2; and

 

(b)          After
the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default; (i) execute on behalf of Borrower any document exercising, transferring
or assigning any option to purchase, sell or otherwise dispose of or lease (as lessor or lessee) any real or personal property
which is part of the Collateral or in which Lender has an interest; (ii) execute on behalf of Borrower any invoices relating to
any Accounts, any draft against any Account Debtor, any proof of claim in bankruptcy, any notice of Lien or claim, and any assignment
or satisfaction of mechanic's, materialman's or other Lien; (iii) except as otherwise provided in Section 4.3(i) hereof, execute
on behalf of Borrower any notice to any Account Debtor; (iv) pay, contest or settle any Lien, charge, encumbrance, security interest
and adverse claim in or to any of the Collateral, or any judgment based thereon, or otherwise take any action to terminate or discharge
the same; (v) grant extensions of time to pay, compromise claims relating to, and settle Accounts, Chattel Paper and General Intangibles
for less than face value and execute all releases and other documents in connection therewith; (vi) settle and adjust, and give
releases of, any insurance claim that relates to any of the Collateral and obtain payment therefor; (xii) instruct any third party
having custody or control of any Collateral or books or records belonging to, or relating to, Borrower to give Lender the same
rights of access and other rights with respect thereto as Lender has under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; (viii) change
the address for delivery of Borrower's mail; (ix) vote any right or interest with respect to any Investment Property; and (x) instruct
any Account Debtor to make all payments due to Borrower directly to Lender.

 

Any and all sums paid,
and any and all costs, expenses, liabilities, obligations and reasonable attorneys' fees incurred, by Lender with respect to the
foregoing shall be added to and become part of the Obligations, shall be payable on demand, and shall bear interest at a rate equal
to the highest interest rate applicable to any of the Obligations at such time. Borrower agrees that Lender's rights under the
foregoing power of attorney and/or any of Lender's other rights under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall not be construed
to indicate that Lender is in control of the business, management or properties of Borrower.

	Loan and Security Agreement

 

4.5          Disputes.
Borrower shall promptly notify Lender of all material disputes or claims relating to its material Accounts and Chattel Paper. Borrower
agrees that it will not, without Lender’s prior written consent (which consent, absent the continuance of an Event of Default,
shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), compromise or settle any of its Accounts or Chattel Paper for less
than the full amount thereof, grant any extension of time for payment of any of its Accounts or Chattel Paper, release (in whole
or in part) any Account Debtor or other person liable for the payment of any of its Accounts or Chattel Paper or grant any credits,
discounts, allowances, deductions, return authorizations or the like with respect to any of its Accounts or Chattel Paper; except
(unless otherwise directed by Lender during the existence of a Default or an Event of Default) Borrower may take any of such actions
in the ordinary course of its business consistent with past practices.

 

4.6          Invoices.
At Lender’s request, Borrower will cause all invoices and statements which it sends to Account Debtors or other third parties
to be marked, in a manner satisfactory to Lender in its Permitted Discretion, to reflect Lender’s security interest therein
and payment instructions.

 

4.7          [Reserved].

 

4.8          Access
to Collateral, Books and Records. At reasonable times and prior to the continuance of an Event of Default, upon reasonable
prior notice, Lender and/or its representatives or agents shall have the right to inspect the Collateral, and the right to examine
and copy each Borrower’s books and records. Borrower agrees to give Lender access to any or all of Borrower’s, and
each of its Domestic Subsidiaries’, premises to enable Lender to conduct such inspections and examinations. Such inspections
and examinations shall be at Borrower’s expense and the charge therefor shall be $1,000 per person per day (or such higher
amount as shall represent Lender’s then current standard charge), plus out-of-pocket expenses. Lender may, at Borrower’s
expense, use Borrower’s personnel, computer and other equipment, programs, printed output and computer readable media, supplies
and premises for the collection, sale or other disposition of Collateral to the extent Lender, in its sole discretion, deems appropriate.
Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes all accountants and third parties to disclose and deliver to Lender, at Borrower’s
expense, all financial information, books and records, work papers, management reports and other information in their possession
regarding Borrower.

 

4.9          Appraisals.
Borrower will permit Lender and each of its representatives or agents to conduct appraisals and valuations of the Collateral at
such times and intervals as Lender may designate, which prior to the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, shall be

during each Fiscal Year; provided, that Borrower shall be responsible for reimbursing Lender for the costs and expenses
associated with all such appraisals and valuations of the Collateral conducted during the continuance of an Event of Default.

 

		5.	REPRESENTATIONS,
WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS.

 

To induce Lender to
enter into this Agreement, Borrower represents, warrants and covenants as follows (it being understood and agreed that (a) each
such representation and warranty (i) will be made as of the date hereof and be deemed remade as of each date on which any Loan

and/or specified date), and (ii) shall not be affected by any knowledge of, or any investigation by, Lender, and (b) each
such covenant shall continuously apply with respect to all times commencing on the date hereof and continuing until all of the
Obligations are paid in full in cash (other than contingent obligations not then due) and all of Lender’s commitments under
this Agreement have been terminated):

	Loan and Security Agreement

 

5.1          Existence
and Authority. Borrower is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of organization
(which jurisdiction is identified in Section 1(a) of the Disclosure Schedule, subject to change from time to time in accordance
with Section 5.8) and, except to the extent as could not be reasonably expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, is qualified
to do business in each jurisdiction in which the operation of its business requires that it be qualified (which each such jurisdiction
is identified in Section 1(a) of the Disclosure Schedule, subject to change from time to time in accordance with Section 5.8).
Borrower has all requisite power and authority to own and operate its properties, to carry on its business as now conducted and
as proposed to be conducted, to enter into the Loan Documents to which it is a party and to carry out the transactions contemplated
thereby. The execution, delivery and performance by Borrower of this Agreement and all of the other Loan Documents to which Borrower
is a party have been duly and validly authorized, do not violate Borrower’s Organic Documents, or any law or any agreement
or instrument or any court order which is binding upon any Borrower or its property, do not constitute grounds for acceleration
of any Indebtedness or obligation under any agreement or instrument which is binding upon Borrower or its property, and do not
require the consent of any Person, except for any consent, the failure of which to be obtained could reasonably be expected to
result in a Material Adverse Effect. No Borrower is required to obtain any government approval, consent, or authorization from,
or to file any declaration or statement with, any Governmental Authority in connection with or as a condition to the execution,
delivery or performance of any of the Loan Documents other than approval, consents, authorizations and filings that have been made
or obtained and remain in full force and effect and filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. This Agreement and each
of the other Loan Documents have been duly executed and delivered by, and are enforceable against Borrower, in accordance with
their respective terms, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency and similar laws affecting the enforceability of creditors’ rights
generally and to general principles of equity. Section 1(f) of the Disclosure Schedule sets forth the ownership of Borrower
and its Subsidiaries.

 

5.2          Names;
Trade Names and Styles. The name of Borrower set forth on Section1(b) of the Disclosure Schedule is its correct and complete
legal name as of the date hereof, and Borrower has not used any other name at any time in the past five years, nor will it at any
time use any other name, in any tax filing made in any jurisdiction. Listed in Section 1(b) of the Disclosure Schedule are all
prior names used by Borrower at any time in the past five years and all of the present and prior trade names used by Borrower at
any time in the past five years. Borrower shall give Lender at least thirty days’ prior written notice (and will deliver
an updated Section 1(b) of the Disclosure Schedule to reflect the same) before it or any other Borrower changes its legal name
or does business under any other name.

5.3          Title
to Collateral; Third Party Locations; Permitted Liens. Borrower has, and at all times will continue to have, good and marketable
title to,or rights in, all of the Collateral. The Collateral now is, and at all times will remain, free and clear of any and all
Liens, except for Permitted Liens. Lender now has, and will at all times continue to have, a first-priority perfected and enforceable
security interest in all of the Collateral, subject only to the Permitted Liens, and Borrower will at all times defend Lender and
the Collateral against all claims of others (other than holders of Permitted Liens). None of the Collateral which is Equipment

intent, as to become a fixture unless any landlord or mortgagee delivers a Lien Waiver or similar instrument, and (v) all tangible
items of material Collateral, other than Inventory in transit, shall at all times be kept by Borrower at the business locations
set forth in Sections 1(c) and 1(d) of the Disclosure Schedule and Borrower shall keep all material books and records relating
to Accounts at the business locations set forth on Sections 1(c) and 1(d) of the Disclosure Schedule; except, that, Borrower may
(a) make sales or other dispositions of Collateral in accordance with Section 5.25 of this Agreement, (b) move Collateral or books
and records to another location in the United States, upon thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to Lender; provided that
Lender may in its Permitted Discretion request a Lien Waiver for such new location to the extent that either material Collateral
is to be located at such new location or material Collateral from an existing location subject to a Lien Waiver is to be relocated
to such new location and Borrower shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such Lien Waiver and (c) maintain Collateral
at other locations having an aggregate value not to exceed $100,000 at any single location, and (vi) Borrower will keep at all
times in full force and effect, and will comply at all times with all the terms of, any lease of real property where any of the
Collateral now or in the future may be located, except to the extent as could not be reasonably expected to result in a Material
Adverse Effect.

 

5.4          Accounts
and Chattel Paper. As of each date reported by Borrower pursuant to the requirements set forth on Schedule D, all Accounts
which Borrower has then reported to Lender as then being Eligible Accounts comply in all respects with the criteria for eligibility
set forth in clauses (i) through (xvii) of the definition of Eligible Accounts. All such Accounts and Chattel Paper are genuine
and in all respects what they purport to be, arise out of a completed, bona fide and unconditional and non-contingent sale and
delivery of goods or rendition of services by Borrower in the ordinary course of its business and in accordance with the terms
and conditions of all purchase orders, contracts or other documents relating thereto, each Account Debtor thereunder had the capacity
to contract at the time any contract or other document giving rise to such Accounts and Chattel Paper were executed, and the transactions
giving rise to such Accounts and Chattel Paper comply with all applicable laws and governmental rules and regulations.

 

5.5          Electronic
Chattel Paper. To the extent that Borrower obtains or maintains any Electronic Chattel Paper in an amount in excess of $50,000,
Borrower shall at all times create, store and assign the record or records comprising the Electronic Chattel Paper in such a manner
that (i) a single authoritative copy of the record or records exists which is unique, identifiable and except as otherwise
provided below, unalterable, (ii) the authoritative copy identifies Lender as the assignee of the record or records, (iii) the
authoritative copy is communicated to and maintained by Lender or its designated custodian, (iv) copies or revisions that
add or change an identified assignee of the authoritative copy can only be made with the participation of Lender, (v) each
copy of the authoritative copy and any copy of a copy is readily identifiable as a copy that is not the authoritative copy and
(vi) any revision of the authoritative copy is readily identifiable as an authorized or unauthorized revision.

 

5.6          Capitalization;
Investment Property.

 

(a)          Borrower
does not directly or indirectly own, nor at any time shall it own, any capital stock or other equity interests of any other Person
except as set forth in Sections 1(f) and 1(g) of the Disclosure Schedule, which such Sections of the Disclosure Schedule list all
Investment Property owned by Borrower as of the date hereof, and any capital stock or equity interests acquired after the date
hereof as a Permitted Investment and/or Permitted Acquisition.

 

(b)          None
of the Pledged Equity has been issued or otherwise transferred in violation of the Securities Act, or other applicable laws of

Pledged Equity pledged by Borrower hereunder constitutes all of the issued and outstanding equity interests of each Issuer owned
by Borrower.

 

(d)          All
of the Pledged Equity has been duly and validly issued and is fully paid and non-assessable, and the holders thereof are not entitled
to any preemptive, first refusal, or other similar rights. There are no outstanding options, warrants or similar agreements, documents,
or instruments with respect to any of the Pledged Equity.

 

(e)          [Reserved].

 

(f)          Borrower
will take any and all actions required or requested by Lender, from time to time, to (i) cause Lender to obtain exclusive
control of any Investment Property in an amount in excess of $50,000 in a manner acceptable to Lender and (ii) obtain from
any Issuers and such other Persons as Lender shall specify, for the benefit of Lender, written confirmation of Lender’s exclusive
control over such Investment Property in an amount in excess of $50,000 and take such other actions as Lender may request to perfect
Lender’s security interest in any Investment Property. For purposes of this Section 5.6, Lender shall have exclusive
control of Investment Property if (A) pursuant to Section 3.2, such Investment Property consists of certificated securities
and Borrower delivers such certificated securities to Lender (with all appropriate endorsements); (B) such Investment Property
consists of uncertificated securities and either (x) Borrower delivers such uncertificated securities to Lender or (y) the
Issuer thereof agrees, pursuant to documentation in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender, that it will comply with
instructions originated by Lender without further consent by Borrower, and (C) such Investment Property consists of security
entitlements and either (x) Lender becomes the entitlement holder thereof or (y) the appropriate securities intermediary
agrees, pursuant to documentation in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender, that it will comply with entitlement
orders originated by Lender without further consent by Borrower. Borrower, if it is a limited liability company or a partnership,
hereby represents and warrants that it has not, and at no time will, elect pursuant to the provisions of Section 8-103 of the UCC
to provide that its equity interests are securities governed by Article 8 of the UCC.

 

(g)          Borrower
does not own, nor does it have any present intention of acquiring, any “margin security” or any “margin stock”
within the meaning of Regulations T, U or X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (herein called “margin
security” and “margin stock”). None of the proceeds of the Loans will be used, directly or indirectly, for the
purpose of purchasing or carrying, or for the purpose of reducing or retiring any Indebtedness which was originally incurred to
purchase or carry, any margin security or margin stock or for any other purpose which might constitute the transactions contemplated
hereby a “purpose credit” within the meaning of said Regulations T, U or X, or cause this Agreement to violate any
other regulation of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System or the Exchange Act, or any rules or regulations promulgated
under such statutes.

 

(h)          Borrower
shall not vote to enable, or take any other action to cause or to permit, any Issuer to issue any equity interests of any nature,
or to issue any other securities or interests convertible into or granting the right to purchase or exchange for any equity interests
of any nature of any Issuer.

 

(i)          Borrower
shall not take, or fail to take, any action that would in any manner impair the value or the enforceability of Lender’s Lien
on any of the Investment Property, or any of Lender’s rights or remedies under this Agreement or any other Loan Document
with respect to any of the Investment Property.

 

    	-15-

to Borrower with respect to all actions that may be required of it pursuant to such Section 7.3(g)(iii) regarding the Investment
Property issued by it.

 

5.7          Commercial
Tort Claims. Borrower does not have any Commercial Tort Claims pending other than those listed in Section 2 of the Disclosure
Schedule, and Borrower shall promptly (but in any case no later than five Business Days thereafter) notify Lender in writing upon
incurring or otherwise obtaining a Commercial Tort Claim after the date hereof against any third party. Such notice shall constitute
Borrower’s authorization to amend such Section 2 to add such Commercial Tort Claim and shall automatically be deemed to amend
such Section 2 to include such Commercial Tort Claim.

 

5.8          State
of Organization; Location of Collateral. Sections 1(c) and 1(d) of the Disclosure Schedule set forth (i) each
place of business of Borrower (including its chief executive office), (ii) all locations where all Inventory, Equipment, and
other Collateral owned by Borrower is kept, other than Inventory in transit or Collateral at another location as contemplated by
Section 5.3, and (iii) whether each such Collateral location and/or place of business (including Borrower’s chief executive
office) is owned by Borrower or leased (and if leased, specifies the complete name and notice address of each lessor). No Collateral
with a fair market value in excess of $150,000 in the aggregate is located outside the United States or in the possession of any
lessor, bailee, warehouseman or consignee, except as expressly indicated in Sections 1(c) and 1(d) of the Disclosure Schedule.
Borrower will give Lender at least thirty days’ prior written notice before changing its state of organization, opening any
additional place of business, changing its chief executive office or the location of its books and records, or moving any of the
Collateral to a location other than one of the locations set forth in Sections 1(c) and 1(d) of the Disclosure Schedule, other
than Inventory in transit or in accordance with Section 5.3, and to execute and deliver all financing statements, Lien Waivers
to the extent required by Section 5.3, mortgages, and all other agreements, instruments and documents which Lender shall reasonably
require in connection therewith prior to making such change, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender. Without
the prior written consent of Lender, Borrower will at any time (x) change its state of organization or (y) allow any Collateral
with a fair market value in excess of $150,000 in the aggregate to be located outside of the continental United States of America.
Sections 1(c) and 1(d) of the Disclosure Schedule will be deemed to include each additional place of business and location added
in accordance with this Section 5.8 from time to time.

 

5.9          Financial
Statements and Reports; Solvency

 

(a)          All
financial statements delivered to Lender by or on behalf of Borrower have been, and at all times will be, prepared in conformity
with GAAP (provided, that interim financial statements may lack footnotes and will be subject to audit and year-end adjustments)
and completely and fairly reflect in all material respects the financial condition of Borrower covered thereby, at the times and
for the periods therein stated.

 

(b)          As
of the date hereof (after giving effect to the Loans and Letters of Credit to be made or issued on the date hereof, and the consummation
of the transactions contemplated hereby), and as of each other day that any Loan or Letter of Credit is made or issued (after giving
effect thereof), (i) the fair saleable value of all of the assets and properties of Borrower on a consolidated basis, exceeds the
aggregate liabilities and Indebtedness of Borrower (including contingent liabilities), (ii) Borrower, on a consolidated basis,

5.10       Tax
Returns and Payments; Pension Contributions. Borrower has timely filed all tax returns and reports required by applicable law,
has timely paid all applicable Taxes, assessments, deposits and contributions owing by Borrower and will timely pay all such items
in the future as they became due and payable. Borrower may, however, defer payment of any contested taxes; provided,
that Borrower (i) in good faith contests its obligation to pay such Taxes by appropriate actions; (ii) notifies Lender
in writing of the commencement of, and any material development in, the proceedings; (iii) posts bonds or takes any other
steps required to keep the contested taxes from becoming a Lien upon any of the Collateral and (iv) maintains adequate reserves
therefor in conformity with GAAP. Borrower is not aware of any claims or adjustments proposed for any prior tax years that could
reasonably be expected to result in additional material taxes becoming due and payable by Borrower. Each Plan is in compliance
in all material respects with the applicable provisions of ERISA, the Code and other applicable laws. Each Plan that is intended
to be a qualified plan under Section 401(a) of the Code has received a favorable determination letter or opinion letter from
the Internal Revenue Service to the effect that the form of such Plan is qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code and the
trust related thereto has been determined by the Internal Revenue Service to be exempt from federal income tax under Section 501(a)
of the Code, or an application for such a letter is currently being processed by the Internal Revenue Service. To the best knowledge
of Borrower, nothing has occurred that would prevent or cause the loss of such tax-qualified status. There are no pending or, to
the best knowledge of Borrower, claims threatened in writing, actions or lawsuits, or action by any Governmental Authority, with
respect to any Plan that could reasonably be expected to result in liabilities individually or in the aggregate in excess of $100,000
on any Borrower. There has been no prohibited transaction or violation of the fiduciary responsibility rules with respect to any
Plan that has resulted or could reasonably be expected to result in liabilities individually or in the aggregate on Borrower in
excess of $100,000. No ERISA Event has occurred, and no Borrower is aware of any fact, event or circumstance that could reasonably
be expected to constitute or result in an ERISA Event with respect to any Pension Plan, in each case that could reasonably be expected
to result in liabilities individually or in the aggregate in excess of $100,000. Borrower and each ERISA Affiliate has met all
applicable requirements under the Pension Funding Rules in respect of each Pension Plan, and no waiver of the minimum funding standards
under the Pension Funding Rules has been applied for or obtained, in each case except as could not reasonably be expected to result
in liabilities individually or in the aggregate to Borrower in excess of $100,000.  As of the most recent valuation date for
any Pension Plan, the funding target attainment percentage (as defined in Section 430(d)(2) of the Code) is 60% or higher
and Borrower does not know of any facts or circumstances that could reasonably be expected to cause the funding target attainment
percentage for any such plan to drop below 60% as of the most recent valuation date. Neither Borrower nor any ERISA Affiliate has
incurred any liability to the PBGC other than for the payment of premiums, and there are no premium payments which have become
due that are unpaid, except as could not reasonably be expected to result in liabilities individually or in the aggregate to Borrower
in excess of $100,000. Neither Borrower nor any ERISA Affiliate has engaged in a transaction that could be subject to Section 4069

regulations, including those relating to the ownership of real or personal property, the conduct and licensing of Borrower’s

each case to the extent noncompliance could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Borrower has received written notice of default or violation, nor is Borrower in default or violation, with respect to any judgment,
order, writ, injunction, decree, demand or assessment issued by any court or any federal, state, local, municipal or other Governmental
Authority relating to any aspect of Borrower’s business, affairs, properties or assets, except to the extent as could not

of any applicable law except to the extent as could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

or franchise agreement pursuant to which Borrower is the licensor or franchisor. Borrower shall promptly (but in any event within
thirty (30) days thereafter) notify Lender in writing of any additional material Intellectual Property rights acquired or arising
after the Closing Date and shall submit to Lender a supplement to Section 4 of the Disclosure Schedule to reflect such additional
rights (provided that Borrower’s failure to do so shall not impair Lender’s security interest therein).
Borrower shall execute a separate security agreement granting Lender a security interest in such Intellectual Property (whether
owned on the Closing Date or thereafter), in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Lender and suitable for registering such
security interest in such Intellectual Property with the United States Patent and Trademark Office and/or United States Copyright
Office, as applicable (provided that Borrower’s failure to do so shall not impair Lender’s security interest
therein). Borrower owns or has, and will at all times continue to own or have, the valid right to use all material patents, trademarks,
copyrights, software, computer programs, equipment designs, network designs, equipment configurations, technology and other Intellectual
Property used, marketed and sold in Borrower’s business, and Borrower is in compliance, and will continue at all times to
comply, in all material respects with all licenses, user agreements and other such agreements regarding the use of material Intellectual

has and will continue at all times to have, all federal, state, local and other licenses and permits required to be maintained
in connection with Borrower’s business operations, and all such licenses and permits are valid and in full force and effect.
Borrower has, and will continue at all times to have, complied with the requirements of such licenses and permits in all material
respects, and has received no written notice of any pending or threatened in writing proceedings for the suspension, termination,
revocation or limitation thereof. Borrower is not aware of any facts or conditions that could reasonably be expected to cause or
permit any of such licenses or permits to be voided, revoked or withdrawn, in each case except to the extent as could not reasonably
be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

litigation, proceeding or investigation pending or (to the best of Borrower’s knowledge) threatened in writing by or against

Lender acknowledges that Borrower’s insurer as of the Closing Date, and each insurer with a rating comparable to that of
such insurer from AM Best, is acceptable to Lender), in such form and amounts, and with such deductibles and other provisions,
as Lender shall reasonably require, and Borrower will provide Lender with evidence reasonably satisfactory to Lender that such
insurance is, at all times, in full force and effect. A true and complete listing of such insurance as of the Closing Date, including
issuers, coverages and deductibles, is set forth in Section 5 of the Disclosure Schedule. Each property insurance policy shall
name Lender as loss payee and shall contain a lender’s loss payable endorsement in form reasonably acceptable to Lender,
each liability insurance policy shall name Lender as an additional insured, and each business interruption insurance policy shall
be collaterally assigned to Lender, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender. All policies of insurance shall
provide that they may not be cancelled or changed to reduce the amount or scope of coverage without at least thirty days’
prior written notice to Lender, and shall otherwise be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender. Borrower shall
advise Lender promptly of any policy cancellation, non-renewal, reduction, or material amendment or any receipt by Borrower of
notice from any insurance carrier regarding any intended or threatened cancellation, non-renewal, reduction or material amendment
of any of such policies, and Borrower shall promptly deliver to Lender copies of all notices and related documentation received
by Borrower in connection with the same.

evidencing renewal of all such insurance policies required by Section 5.14 of this Agreement. Borrower shall deliver to Lender,
upon Lender’s request, certificates evidencing such insurance coverage. If Borrower fails to provide Lender with a certificate
of insurance or other evidence of the continuing insurance coverage required by this Agreement within ten (10) days of Lender’s
written request, Lender may purchase insurance required by this Agreement at Borrower’s expense. This insurance may, but
need not, protect Borrower’s interests.

when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, and at all times thereafter, of the Obligations and all costs
and expenses, including all court costs and reasonable attorneys’ and paralegals’ fees and expenses paid or incurred
by Lender in endeavoring to collect all or any part of the Obligations from, or in prosecuting any action against, Borrower or

any portion of the Obligations.

 

8.2           Guaranty
of Payment.

 

This Loan Guaranty
is a guaranty of payment and not of collection. Each Guarantor waives any right to require Lender to sue or otherwise take action
against Borrower, any other Guarantor, or any other Person obligated for all or any part of the Obligations, or otherwise to enforce
its payment against any Collateral securing all or any part of the Obligations.

	Loan and Security Agreement

 

8.3           No
Discharge or Diminishment of Loan Guaranty.

 

(a)          Except
as otherwise expressly provided for herein, the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder are unconditional and absolute and not
subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason (other than the payment in full in cash of all of
the Obligations (other than contingent obligations not then due)), including: (i) any claim of waiver, release, extension, renewal,
settlement, surrender, alteration, or compromise of any of the Obligations, by operation of law or otherwise; (ii) any change in
the corporate existence, structure or ownership of the Borrower or any Guarantor; (iii) any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization
or other similar proceeding affecting Borrower or any other Guarantor, or their assets or any resulting release or discharge of
any obligation of Borrower or any other Guarantor; or (iv) the existence of any claim, setoff or other rights which any Guarantor
may have at any time against any Borrower, any other Guarantor, Lender, or any other Person, whether in connection herewith or
in any unrelated transactions.

 

(b)          The
obligations of each Guarantor hereunder are not subject to any defense or setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, or termination whatsoever
by reason of the invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability of any of the Obligations or otherwise, or any provision of applicable
law or regulation purporting to prohibit payment by Borrower or any other Guarantor, of the Obligations or any part thereof.

 

(c)          Further,
the obligations of any Guarantor hereunder are not discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by: (i) the failure of the Lender
to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any remedy with respect to all or any part of the Obligations; (ii) any waiver or modification
of or supplement to any provision of any agreement relating to the Obligations; (iii) any release, non-perfection, or invalidity
of any indirect or direct security for all or any part of the Obligations or all or any part of any obligations of any other Guarantor;
(iv) any action or failure to act by the Lender with respect to any Collateral; or (v) any default, failure or delay, willful or
otherwise, in the payment or performance of any of the Obligations, or any other circumstance, act, omission or delay that might
in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of such Guarantor or that would otherwise operate as a discharge of any Guarantor
as a matter of law or equity (other than the payment in full in cash of the Obligations (other than contingent obligations not
then due)).

 

8.4           Defenses
Waived. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Guarantor hereby waives any defense based on or arising out
of any defense of any Guarantor or the unenforceability of all or any part of the Obligations from any cause, or the cessation
from any cause of the liability of any Guarantor, other than the payment in full in cash of all of the Obligations (other than
contingent obligations not then due). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing and except as otherwise provided in this
Agreement or the other Loan Documents, each Guarantor irrevocably waives acceptance hereof, presentment, demand, protest and, to
the fullest extent permitted by law, any notice not provided for herein, as well as any requirement that at any time any action
be taken by any Person against Borrower, any other Guarantor, or any other Person. Each Guarantor confirms that it is not a surety
under any state law and shall not raise any such law as a defense to its obligations hereunder. Lender may, at its election, foreclose
on any Collateral held by it by one or more judicial or nonjudicial sales, accept an assignment of any such Collateral in lieu
of foreclosure or otherwise act or fail to act with respect to any Collateral, compromise or adjust any part of the Obligations,
make any other accommodation with Borrower or any Guarantor or exercise any other right or remedy available to it against Borrower
or any Guarantor, without affecting or impairing in any way the liability of any Guarantor under this Loan Guaranty except to the
extent the Obligations have been fully paid in cash. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Guarantor waives any
defense arising out of any such election even though that election may operate, pursuant to applicable law, to impair or extinguish
any right of reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of any Guarantor against Borrower or any other Guarantor or
any security.

it has against Borrower or any other Guarantor, or any Collateral, as a result of any payment made by Guarantor under this Loan
Guaranty until the Obligors have fully performed all of their obligations to the Lender and all of the Obligations (other than
contingent obligations not then due) have been paid in full in cash and all lending commitments of Lender under the Loan Documents
have been terminated.

 

8.6          Reinstatement;
Stay of Acceleration.

 

If at any time any
payment of any portion of the Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy,
or reorganization of the Borrower or any other Person, or otherwise, each Guarantor’s obligations under this Loan Guaranty
with respect to that payment shall be reinstated at such time as though the payment had not been made and whether or not the Lender
is in possession of this Loan Guaranty. If acceleration of the time for payment of any of the Obligations is stayed upon the insolvency,
bankruptcy or reorganization of the Borrower, all such amounts otherwise subject to acceleration under the terms of any agreement
relating to the Obligations shall nonetheless be payable by the Guarantors forthwith on demand by the Lender.

 

8.7          Information.

 

Each Guarantor assumes
all responsibility for being and keeping itself informed of the Borrower’s financial condition and assets, and of all other
circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Obligations and the nature, scope and extent of the risks that each Guarantor
assumes and incurs under this Loan Guaranty, and agrees that the Lender shall not have any duty to advise any Guarantor of information
known to it regarding those circumstances or risks.

 

8.8          Termination.

 

To the maximum extent
permitted by law, each Guarantor hereby waives any right to revoke this Guaranty as to future Obligations.  If such a revocation
is effective notwithstanding the foregoing waiver, each Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that (a) no such revocation shall
be effective until written notice thereof has been received by Lender, (b) no such revocation shall apply to any Obligations
in existence on the date of receipt by Lender of such written notice (including any subsequent continuation, extension, or renewal
thereof, or change in the interest rate, payment terms, or other terms and conditions thereof), (c) no such revocation shall
apply to any Obligations made or created after such date to the extent made or created pursuant to a legally binding commitment
of Lender in existence prior to such date, (d) no payment by Borrower, any other Guarantor, or from any other source, prior
to the date of Lender’s receipt of written notice of such revocation shall reduce the maximum obligation of any Guarantor
hereunder, and (e) any payment, by Borrower or from any source other than a Guarantor which has made such a revocation, made
subsequent to the date of such revocation, shall first be applied to that portion of the Obligations as to which the revocation
is effective and which are not, therefore, guarantied hereunder, and to the extent so applied shall not reduce the maximum obligation
of any Guarantor hereunder.

8.9          Maximum
Liability. The provisions of this Loan Guaranty are severable, and in any action or proceeding involving any state corporate
law, or any state, federal or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other law affecting the rights of creditors generally,
if the obligations of any Guarantor under this Loan Guaranty would otherwise be held or determined to be avoidable, invalid or
unenforceable on account of the amount of such Guarantor’s liability under this Loan Guaranty, then, notwithstanding any
other provision of this Loan Guaranty to the contrary, the amount of such liability shall, without any further action by the Guarantors
or the Lender, be automatically limited and reduced to the highest amount that is valid and enforceable as determined in such action
or proceeding (such highest amount determined hereunder being the relevant Guarantor’s “Maximum Liability”).
This Section with respect to the Maximum Liability of each Guarantor is intended solely to preserve the rights of the Lender to
the maximum extent not subject to avoidance under applicable law, and no Guarantor nor any other Person shall have any right or
claim under this Section with respect to such Maximum Liability, except to the extent necessary so that the obligations of any
Guarantor hereunder shall not be rendered voidable under applicable law. Each Guarantor agrees that the Obligations may at any
time and from time to time exceed the Maximum Liability of each Guarantor without impairing this Loan Guaranty or affecting the
rights and remedies of the Lender hereunder, provided that, nothing in this sentence shall be construed to increase
any Guarantor’s obligations hereunder beyond its Maximum Liability.

 

8.10        Contribution.
In the event any Guarantor shall make any payment or payments under this Loan Guaranty or shall suffer any loss as a result of
any realization upon any collateral granted by it to secure its obligations under this Loan Guaranty (such Guarantor a “Paying
Guarantor”), each other Guarantor (each a “Non-Paying Guarantor”) shall contribute to such
Paying Guarantor an amount equal to such Non-Paying Guarantor’s “Applicable Percentage” of such payment or payments
made, or losses suffered, by such Paying Guarantor. For purposes of this Section 8.10, each Non-Paying Guarantor’s “Applicable
Percentage” with respect to any such payment or loss by a Paying Guarantor shall be determined as of the date on which such
payment or loss was made by reference to the ratio of (i) such Non-Paying Guarantor’s Maximum Liability as of such date (without
giving effect to any right to receive, or obligation to make, any contribution hereunder) or, if such Non-Paying Guarantor’s
Maximum Liability has not been determined, the aggregate amount of all monies received by such Non-Paying Guarantor from the Borrower
after the date hereof (whether by loan, capital infusion or by other means) to (ii) the aggregate Maximum Liability of all Guarantors
hereunder (including such Paying Guarantor) as of such date (without giving effect to any right to receive, or obligation to make,
any contribution hereunder), or to the extent that a Maximum Liability has not been determined for any Guarantor, the aggregate
amount of all monies received by such Guarantors from the Borrower after the date hereof (whether by loan, capital infusion or
by other means). Nothing in this provision shall affect any Guarantor’s several liability for the entire amount of the Obligations
(up to such Guarantor’s Maximum Liability). Each of the Guarantors covenants and agrees that its right to receive any contribution
under this Loan Guaranty from a Non-Paying Guarantor shall be subordinate and junior in right of payment to the payment in full
in cash of all of the Obligations. This provision is for the benefit of the Lender and the Guarantors and may be enforced by any
one, or more, or all of them in accordance with the terms hereof.

 

8.11        Liability
Cumulative. The liability of each Guarantor under this Section 8 is in addition to and shall be cumulative with all liabilities
of each Guarantor to the Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which such Guarantor is a party or in respect
of any obligations or liabilities of Borrower, without any limitation as to amount, unless the instrument or agreement evidencing
or creating such other liability specifically provides to the contrary.

		9.	PAYMENTS FREE OF TAXES; OBLIGATION TO WITHHOLD; PAYMENTS ON ACCOUNT OF TAXES.

 

(a)          Any
and all payments by or on account of any obligation of Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall to the extent
permitted by applicable laws be made free and clear of and without reduction or withholding for any Taxes. If, however, applicable
laws require Borrower to withhold or deduct any Tax, such Tax shall be withheld or deducted in accordance with such laws as the
case may be, upon the basis of the information and documentation to be delivered pursuant to subsection (e) below.

 

(b)          If
Borrower shall be required by applicable law to withhold or deduct any Taxes from any payment, then (A) Borrower shall withhold
or make such deductions as are required based upon the information and documentation it has received pursuant to subsection (e)
below, (B) Borrower shall timely pay the full amount withheld or deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance
with the applicable law, and (C) to the extent that the withholding or deduction is made on account of Indemnified Taxes, the sum
payable by Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after any required withholding or the making of all required deductions
(including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum
it would have received had no such withholding or deduction been made. Upon request by Lender or other Recipient, Borrower shall
deliver to Lender or such other Recipient, as the case may be, the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental
Authority evidencing such payment of Taxes, a copy of any return required by applicable law to report such payment or other evidence
of such payment reasonably satisfactory to Lender or such other Recipient, as the case may be.

 

(c)          Without
limiting the provisions of subsections (a) and (b) above, Borrower shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental
Authority in accordance with applicable law.

 

(d)         
Without limiting the provisions of subsections (a) through (c) above, Borrower shall, and does hereby, on a joint and several basis
indemnify Lender and each other Recipient and shall make payment in respect thereof within 10 days after demand therefor, for the
full amount of any Indemnified Taxes and Other Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes and Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable
to amounts payable under this Section) paid or incurred by Lender or any other Recipient on account of, or in connection with any
Loan Document or a breach by Borrower thereof, and any penalties, interest and related expenses and losses arising therefrom or
with respect thereto (including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel or other tax advisor for Lender or
any other Recipient), whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the
relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of any such payment or liability delivered to Borrower shall be
conclusive absent manifest error. This Section 9 shall survive the repayment of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

 

(e)         
Lender shall deliver to Borrower and each Participant shall deliver to the applicable Lender granting the participation, at the
time or times prescribed by applicable laws, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable laws or
by the taxing authorities of any jurisdiction and such other reasonably requested information as will permit Borrower or Lender
granting a participation, as the case may be, to determine (A) whether or not payments made hereunder or under any other Loan Document
are subject to Taxes, (B) if applicable, the required rate of withholding or deduction, and (C) such Lender’s or Participant’s
entitlement to any available exemption from, or reduction of, applicable Taxes in respect of all payments to be made to such Recipient
by Borrower pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise to establish such Recipient’s status for withholding tax purposes in
the applicable jurisdiction; provided each Recipient shall only be required to deliver such documentation as it may
legally provide.

	Loan and Security Agreement

 

Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, if a Borrower is resident for tax purposes in the United States:

 

(i)          any
Lender (or Participant) that is a “United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code
shall deliver to Borrower (or Lender granting a participation as applicable) an executed original of Internal Revenue Service Form
W-9 or such other documentation or information prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by Borrower (or Lender granting
a participation) as will enable Borrower (or Lender granting a participation) as the case may be, to determine whether or not such
Lender (or Participant) is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements under the Code;

 

(ii)         any
Lender (or Participant) that is not a “United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code
(a “Non-U.S. Recipient”) shall deliver to Borrower (and the Lender granting a participation in case the
Non-U.S. Recipient is a Participant) and Lender on or prior to the date on which such Non-U.S. Person becomes a party to this Agreement
or a Participant (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Borrower or the Lender granting the participation
but only if such Non-U.S. Recipient is legally entitled to do so), whichever of the following is applicable: (I) executed originals
of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN claiming eligibility for benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is

is not (A) a “bank” within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (B) a “10 percent shareholder”
of Borrower within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or (C) a “controlled foreign corporation” described
in section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code and (y) executed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN; and/or (V) executed originals
of any other form prescribed by applicable law (including FATCA) as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in United
States Federal withholding tax together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit
Borrower or any Lender granting a participation, to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made. Each Non-U.S. Recipient
shall promptly notify Borrower (and any Lender granting a participation if the Non-U.S. Recipient is a Participant) of any change
in circumstances which would modify or render invalid any claimed exemption or reduction.

	Loan and Security Agreement

 

The Lender and each of
its Affiliates is authorized to transmit, post or otherwise make or communicate, in its sole discretion (but shall not be required
to do so), by Approved Electronic Communications in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document and the transactions
contemplated therein. Lender is hereby authorized to establish procedures to provide access to and to make available or deliver,
or to accept, notices, documents and similar items by posting to Passport 6.0. All uses of Passport 6.0 and other Approved Electronic
Communications shall be governed by and subject to, in addition to the terms of this Agreement, the separate terms, conditions
and privacy policy posted or referenced in such system (or such terms, conditions and privacy policy as may be updated from time
to time, including on such system) and any related contractual obligations executed by Lender and Borrower in connection with the
use of such system. Each of Borrower and Lender hereby acknowledges and agrees that the use of Passport 6.0 and other Approved
Electronic Communications is not necessarily secure and that there are risks associated with such use, including risks of interception,
disclosure and abuse and each indicates it assumes and accepts such risks (other than such as constitute gross negligence or willful
misconduct) by hereby authorizing the Lender and each of its Affiliates to transmit Approved Electronic Communications. Passport
6.0 and all Approved Electronic Communications shall be provided “as is” and “as available”. None of Lender
or any of its Affiliates or related persons warrants the accuracy, adequacy or completeness of Passport 6.0 or any other electronic
platform or electronic transmission and disclaims all liability for errors or omissions therein (other than such as constitute
gross negligence or willful misconduct). No warranty of any kind is made by Lender or any of its Affiliates or related persons
in connection with Passport 6.0 or any other electronic platform or electronic transmission, including any warranty of merchantability,
fitness for a particular purpose, or freedom from viruses or other code defects. Borrower agrees that Lender has no responsibility
for maintaining or providing any equipment, software, services or any testing required in connection with Passport 6.0, any Approved
Electronic Communication or otherwise required for Passport 6.0 or any Approved Electronic Communication.

Date, Borrower shall deliver to Lender a complete and executed client User Form regarding Borrower’s use of Passport 6.0

not readily capable of bearing either a signature or a reproduction of a signature may be signed, and shall be deemed signed, by
attaching to, or logically associating with such Approved Electronic Communication, an E-Signature, upon which the Lender and Borrower
may rely and assume the authenticity thereof. Each Approved Electronic Communication containing a signature, a reproduction of
a signature or an E-Signature shall, for all intents and purposes, have the same effect and weight as a signed paper original.
Each E-Signature shall be deemed sufficient to satisfy any requirement for a “signature” and each Approved Electronic
Communication shall be deemed sufficient to satisfy any requirement for a “writing”, in each case including pursuant
to this Agreement, any other Loan Document, the Uniform Commercial Code, the Federal Uniform Electronic Transactions Act, the Electronic
Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act and any substantive or procedural law governing such subject matter. Each party
or beneficiary hereto agrees not to contest the validity or enforceability of an Approved Electronic Communication or E-Signature
under the provisions of any applicable law requiring certain documents to be in writing or signed; provided, that
nothing herein shall limit such party’s or beneficiary’s right to contest whether an Approved Electronic Communication
or E-Signature has been altered after transmission.

 

(b)          All
Other Notices.

 

All notices, requests,
demands and other communications under or in respect of this Agreement or any transactions hereunder, other than those approved
for or required to be delivered by Approved Electronic Communications (including via Passport 6.0 or otherwise pursuant to Section

10.8         Benefit
of Agreement; Assignability. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the respective
successors, and assigns of Borrower and Lender; provided, that Borrower may not assign or transfer any of its rights
under this Agreement without the prior written consent of Lender, and any prohibited assignment shall be void. No consent by Lender
to any assignment shall release Borrower from its liability for any of the Obligations. Lender shall have the right to assign all
or any of its rights and obligations under the Loan Documents to one or more other Persons (other than any competitor of Borrower
or of any Affiliate of Borrower), and Borrower agrees to execute all agreements, instruments and documents requested by Lender
in connection with each such assignments. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document to the contrary,
Lender may at any time pledge or grant a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement and the other
Loan Documents to secure obligations of Lender, including any pledge or grant to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank.

 

10.9         Recordation
of Assignment. In respect of any assignment of all or any portion of any Lender’s interest in this Agreement and/or
any other Loan Documents at any time and from time to time, the following provisions shall be applicable:

 

(a)          Borrower,
or any agent appointed by Borrower, shall maintain a register (the “Register”) in which there
shall be recorded the name and address of each Person holding any Loans or any commitment to lend hereunder, and the principal
amount and stated interest payable to such Person hereunder or committed by such Person under such Person’s lending commitment.
Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints Lender (and/or any subsequent Lender appointed by Lender then maintaining the Register) as
Borrower’s non-fiduciary agent for the purpose of maintaining the Register.

 

(b)          In
connection with any negotiation, transfer or assignment as aforesaid, the transferor/assignor shall deliver to Lender then maintaining
the Register an assignment and assumption agreement executed by the transferor/assignor and the transferee/assignee, setting forth
the specifics of the subject transaction, including but not limited to the amount and nature of Obligations and/or lending commitments
being transferred or assigned (and being assumed, as applicable), and the proposed effective date of such transfer or assignment
and the related assumption (if applicable).

 

    	-42-

    	 

    

 

(c)          Subject
to receipt of any required tax forms reasonably required by Lender, such Person shall record the subject transfer, assignment and
assumption in the Register. Anything contained in this Agreement or other Loan Document to the contrary notwithstanding, no negotiation,
transfer or assignment shall be effective until it is recorded in the Register pursuant to this Section 10.9(c). The entries in
the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error; and Borrower and each Lender shall treat
each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents. The Register shall be available for inspection by Borrower and each Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time
upon reasonable prior notice.

 

10.10     Participations.
Anything in this Agreement or any other Loan Document to the contrary notwithstanding, Lender may, at any time and from time to
time, without in any manner affecting or impairing the validity of any Obligations, sell to one or more Persons (other than any
competitor of Borrower or of any Affiliate of Borrower) participating interests in its Loans, commitments and/or other interests
hereunder and/or under any other Loan Document (any such Person, a “Participant”). In the event of a
sale by Lender of a participating interest to a Participant, (a) such Lender’s obligations hereunder and under the other
Loan Documents shall remain unchanged for all purposes, (b) Borrower and Lender shall continue to deal solely and directly with
each other in connection with Lender’s rights and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and (c) all amounts
payable by Borrower shall be determined as if Lender had not sold such participation and shall be paid directly to Lender, provided,
however, a Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9 as if it were a Lender if Borrower is notified of
the Participation and the Participant complies with Section 9(e). Borrower agrees that if amounts outstanding under this Agreement
or any other Loan Document are due and payable (as a result of acceleration or otherwise), each Participant shall be deemed to
have the right of set-off in respect of its participating interest in amounts owing under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents
to the same extent as if the amount of its participating interest were owing directly to it as a Lender under this Agreement; provided
that such right of set-off shall not be exercised without the prior written consent of Lender and shall be subject to the
obligation of each Participant to share with Lender its share thereof. Borrower also agrees that each Participant shall be entitled
to the benefits of Section 10.9 as if it were Lender. Notwithstanding the granting of any such participating interests: (i) Borrower
shall look solely to Lender for all purposes of this Agreement, the Loan Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby, (ii)
Borrower shall at all times have the right to rely upon any amendments, waivers or consents signed by Lender as being binding upon
all of the Participants, and (iii) all communications in respect of this Agreement and such transactions shall remain solely between
Borrower and Lender (exclusive of Participants) hereunder. The Lender granting a participation hereunder shall maintain, as a non-fiduciary
agent of Borrower, a register as to the participations granted and transferred under this Section containing the same information
specified in Section 10.9 on the Register as if the each Participant were a Lender to the extent required to cause the Loans to
be in registered form for the purposes of Sections 163(F), 165(J), 871, 881, and 4701 of the Code.

 

If any payment
to be made hereunder becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, the due date thereof shall be extended to the
next succeeding Business Day and interest thereon shall be payable at the applicable rate of interest hereunder during such extension.

 

10.11      Headings;
Construction. Section and subsection headings are used in this Agreement only for convenience and do not affect the meanings
of the provisions that they precede.

 

10.12     
USA PATRIOT Act Notification. Lender hereby notifies Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act,
it may be required to obtain, verify and record certain information and documentation that identifies such Person, which information
may include the name and address of each such Person and such other information that will allow Lender to identify such Persons
in accordance with the USA PATRIOT Act.

Eligible Accounts, and Lender, in its Permitted Discretion, may determine that an Account Debtor is not creditworthy or not capable
of being verified in a manner satisfactory to Lender and in either case, therefore deem an otherwise Eligible Account of such Account
Debtor to cease to be an Eligible Account, provided, that such determination by Lender shall not be held to cause

Discretion. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the foregoing, no Unbilled Amount shall be an Eligible Unbilled
Account included in the Borrowing Base unless such Unbilled Amount is owing in, and will be billed and invoiced in, denominated
in and repayable in, Dollars.
