 Exhibit 4.15 
  
 [Mad Catz Letterhead] 
  
 July 1, 2001 
  
 Mr. Andrew C. Schmidt: 
  
 Re: Employment Terms 
  
 Dear Mr. Schmidt: 
  
 On behalf of Mad Catz, Inc., (the “Company”), I am pleased to offer you continued employment in the position of Chief Financial Officer of the Company. We recognize that you fill a critical executive position and want to
compensate you accordingly and provide financial security to you. This letter sets forth the terms of the Employment Agreement (the “Agreement”) that the Company is offering to you: 
  

1.  Employment by the Company. 
  
 1.1  Title and Responsibilities.    Subject to the terms set forth herein, the Company agrees to continue to employ you in the position of Chief Financial
Officer (“CFO”) and you hereby accept such continued employment effective as of the date listed above (“Effective Date.”) You agree that you will devote your best efforts and substantially all of your business time and attention
(except for vacation periods as set forth herein and reasonable periods of illness or other incapacity permitted by the Company’s general employment policies) to the business of the Company. 
  

1.2  Executive Position.    You will serve in an executive capacity and shall perform such duties as are
reasonably assigned from time to time by the President of Mad Catz, Inc., and as are customarily associated with your title and position. 
  
 1.3  Company Employment Policies.    Your employment relationship with the Company shall also be governed by the general employment policies and procedures
of the Company, including those relating to protection of confidential information and assignment of inventions, except that when the terms of this Agreement differ from or are in conflict with the Company’s general employment policies or
procedures, this Agreement shall control. 
  
 1.4  Employment
Period.    In recognition of your important role with the Company, we have agreed that the duration of your employment, under this Agreement, is three years from the Effective Date (the “Contract Employment Period”)
or to the date your employment is terminated in accordance with Section 6 of this Agreement. Unless this Agreement is terminated during the Contract Employment Period, this Agreement and the Contract Employment Period shall be automatically renewed
for a one-year period. This Agreement and the Contract Employment Period shall then continue to be automatically renewed for successive one-year periods unless either party provides the 
 

 1 

 
other party with written notice of non-renewal at least 60 days prior to the date the Agreement and Contract Employment Period would otherwise automatically renew. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
you understand that the employment relationship is “at will” in accordance with California law, and that either side may terminate the employment relationship at any time with or without cause, and with or without notice. However, if the
Company terminates your employment during the Contract Employment Period for any reason other than for cause or reasons enumerated under Section 6.4, or if you resign for Good Reason during the Contract Employment Period, under Section 6.5, then you
shall be entitled to a severance payment of one full year of regular base pay, in addition to any other severance benefits that may be negotiated between you and the Company. The Company’s payment of any severance compensation is conditioned
upon execution of the Release Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit B. 
  
 2.  Compensation and Benefits.

  
 2.1  Base Salary.    For services rendered
hereunder, you shall receive an annualized base salary of one hundred sixty thousand dollars ($160,000), less standard withholdings and deductions, payable in accordance with the Company’s standard payroll procedures. You will be considered for
annual changes in base salary in accordance with Company policy and subject to review and approval by the GTR Board of Directors (“GTR Board.”) 
  
 2.2  Bonuses.    You shall be eligible to receive bonuses as determined by the GTR Board, in consultation with
you and the President according to the terms of any Company executive bonus plans that may be in effect from time to time. 
  
 2.3  Stock Options.    You shall be entitled to participate in the stock option plan managed and controlled by the GTR Board. The terms and conditions of the
Plan for vesting and exercising shares shall continue to govern. Both the Plan and the written Option Agreement, pursuant to the Plan, are attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference. 
  

In the event the terms of the Plan and this Agreement conflict, the provisions of this Agreement shall control. 
  
 2.4  Standard Company Benefits for Executives.    You shall be entitled to all
rights and benefits for which you are eligible under the terms and conditions of the standard Company benefits and compensation plans which may be in effect from time to time and provided by the Company to its executive level employees generally.
You shall receive 4 weeks of Paid Time Off (“PTO”) per year and such PTO shall be governed by the Company’s policies on PTO, in effect from time to time. 
  
 2.5  Business Expense Reimbursement.    The Company shall reimburse you for all reasonable travel, entertainment
or other out-of-pocket expenses incurred by you in furtherance of or in connection with the performance of your duties hereunder, in accordance with the Company’s written expense reimbursement policies in effect from time to time. 

 2 

  
 2.6  Indemnification.    You shall receive indemnification as a corporate officer of the Company to the maximum extent extended to the other executive officers of the Company. If so
requested by the Board, you will be required to enter into the Company’s standard form of Indemnification Agreement, pursuant to which the Company agrees to advance any expenses for which indemnification is available to the extent allowed by
applicable law. 
  
 3.  Proprietary Information Obligations. 
  
 3.1  Proprietary Information Agreement.    You agree to execute and abide by
the Employee Proprietary Information and Inventions Agreement, attached hereto as Exhibit A. 
  
 3.2  Remedies.    Your duties under the Employee Proprietary Information and Inventions Agreement shall survive termination of your employment with the Company. You acknowledge that a
remedy at law for any breach or threatened breach by you of the provisions of the Employee Proprietary Information and Inventions Agreement would be inadequate and you therefore agree that the Company shall be entitled to injunctive relief in case
of any such breach or threatened breach. 
  
 4.  Outside Activities. 
  
 4.1  Activities.    Except with the prior written consent of the GTR Board,
you will not during your employment with the Company undertake or engage in any other employment, occupation or business enterprise, other than ones in which you are a passive investor. You may accept speaking or presentation engagements in exchange
for honoraria and may engage in civic and not-for-profit activities so long as such activities do not materially interfere with the performance of your duties hereunder. 
  
 4.2  Investments and Interests.    Except as permitted by Section 4.3, you agree not to acquire, assume or
participate in, directly or indirectly, any position, investment or interest known by you to be adverse or antagonistic to the Company, its business or prospects, financial or otherwise. 
  
 4.3  Non-Competition.    During your employment by the Company, and for one year from termination, you will not
directly or indirectly, whether as an officer, director, stockholder, partner, proprietor, associate, representative, consultant, or in any capacity whatsoever engage in, become financially interested in, be employed by or have any business
connection with any other person, corporation, firm, partnership or other entity whatsoever known by you to compete directly with the Company, anywhere in the world, in any line of business engaged in (or in which the Company plans to be engaged and
you are aware of such plans as of the date your employment with the Company terminates) by the Company; provided, however, that anything above to the contrary notwithstanding, you may own, as a passive investor, securities of any competitor
corporation, so long as your direct holdings in any one such corporation shall not in the aggregate constitute more than one percent (1%) of the voting stock of such corporation. 
 

 3 

  
 5.  Other Agreements. 
  
 You represent and warrant that your employment by the Company will not conflict with and will not be constrained by any prior agreement or
relationship with any third party. You represent and warrant that you will not disclose to the Company or use on behalf of the Company any confidential information governed by any agreement with any third party except in accordance with an agreement
between the Company and any such third party. During your employment by the Company, you may use, in the performance of your duties, all information generally known and used by persons with training and experience comparable to your own and all
information which is common knowledge in the industry or otherwise legally in the public domain. 
  
 6.  Termination of Employment. 
  
 6.1  At-Will
Employment.    Your relationship with the Company is at-will. Both you and the Company shall have the right to terminate your employment with the Company at any time with or without Cause and with or without notice, provided
that you may be removed from any position you hold as a member of the Company’s Board only in the manner provided by the Bylaws of the Company and applicable law. 
  
 6.2  Termination by Company for Cause.    If the Company terminates your employment at any time for Cause (as
defined below), your salary shall cease on the date of termination and you shall not be entitled to severance pay, pay in lieu of notice or any other such compensation other than payment of accrued salary and vacation and such other benefits as
expressly required in such event by applicable law or the terms of applicable benefit plans. All stock options and any unvested stock awards issued to you shall be controlled by the terms of the Plan. 
  
 (a)  Definition.    For purposes of this Agreement, “Cause” shall
mean the occurrence of one or more of the following: (i) your unauthorized use or disclosure of confidential information or trade secrets of the Company, which use or disclosure causes material harm to the Company; (ii) your conviction of, or your
plea of “guilty” or “no contest” to, a felony under the laws of the United States, or any state thereunder; (iii) gross negligence in the performance of your duties to the Company, willful or habitual neglect of your duties or
violation of Company policy, which is not cured by you within fourteen (14) days of receiving written notice of such breach from the Board; (iv) a willful act by you which constitutes gross misconduct and which causes material injury to the Company,
which is not cured by you within fourteen (14) days of receiving written notice of such breach from the Board; or, (v) your material breach of the Employee Proprietary Information and Inventions Agreement attached hereto. Your physical or mental
disability or death shall not constitute Cause hereunder. For purposes hereof, “gross negligence” in the performance of your duties to the Company shall only include such gross negligence which has resulted or is likely to result in
substantial and material damage to the Company. 
  
 6.3  Your Voluntary
Resignation.    You may voluntarily terminate your employment with the Company at any time with or without notice, and with or without 
 

 4 

 
Good Reason (as defined in Section 6.6 below). In the event that you voluntarily terminate your employment other than for Good Reason, you will not be entitled to severance pay, pay in lieu of
notice or any other such compensation other than payment of accrued salary and vacation and such other benefits as expressly required in such event by applicable law or the terms of applicable benefit plans. All stock options and any unvested stock
awards issued to you shall be controlled by the terms of the Plan. 
  
 6.4  Termination for Death or Disability.    Your employment with the Company will be terminated in the event of your death, or any illness, disability or other incapacity that renders you
physically or mentally unable regularly to perform your duties hereunder for a period in excess of one hundred twenty (120) consecutive days or more than one hundred eighty (180) days in any consecutive twelve (12) month period. The determination
regarding whether you are physically or mentally unable regularly to perform your duties shall be made by the Board. Your inability to be physically present on the Company’s premises shall not constitute a presumption that you are unable to
perform such duties. In the event that your employment with the Company is terminated for death or disability as described in this Section 6.4, you or your heirs, successors, and assigns shall not receive any compensation or benefits other than
payment of accrued salary and vacation and such other benefits as expressly required in such event by applicable law or the terms of applicable benefit plans. All stock options and any unvested stock awards issued to you shall be controlled by the
terms of the Plan. 
  
 6.5  Your Resignation for Good
Reason.    You may resign your employment for Good Reason so long as you tender your resignation to the Company within sixty (60) days after the occurrence of the event which forms the basis for your termination for Good
Reason. 
  
 For purposes of this Agreement, “Good Reason” shall mean any one of the following events which
occurs on or after the commencement of your employment without your consent: (i) any reduction of your then existing annual base salary by more than ten percent (10%) unless comparable reductions are made for all other executive officers of the
Company; (ii) any material reduction in the package of benefits and incentives, taken as a whole, provided to you (except that employee contributions may be raised to the extent of any cost increases imposed by third parties) or any action by the
Company which would materially and adversely affect your participation or reduce your benefits under any such plans, except to the extent that such benefits and incentives of all other executive officers of the Company are similarly reduced; (iii)
any material diminution of your duties, responsibilities, authority, reporting structure, excluding for this purpose an isolated or inadvertent action not taken in bad faith which is remedied by the Company immediately after notice thereof is given
by you; (iv) any request that you relocate to a work site that would increase your one-way commute distance by more than fifty (50) miles from your then principal residence, unless you accept such relocation opportunity; (v) following a Change in
Control, as defined in Section 7.1; or (v) any material breach by the Company of its obligations under this Agreement that is not remedied by Company within thirty (30) days of written notice of such breach from you. 
 

 5 

  
 7.  Change in Control. 
  
 7.1  Change In Control Definition.    For purposes of this Agreement, Change
in Control shall mean any of the following: (i) any consolidation or merger of the Company or GTR with or into any other corporation or other entity or person, or any other corporate reorganization in which the stockholders of the Company or GTR
immediately prior to such consolidation, merger or reorganization by reason of the securities in the Company or GTR owned by them prior to same, own less than fifty percent (50%) of the Company’s or GTR’s voting power immediately after
such consolidation, merger or reorganization, or any transaction or series of related transactions in which in excess of fifty percent (50%) of the Company’s or GTR’s voting power is transferred; or (ii) a sale, lease or other disposition
of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company or the assets of GTR. 
  
 8.  Release.    Upon your termination of employment, you shall enter into and execute a release substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B (the “Release”), as a
condition of your receipt of any severance benefits (including, without limitation, any cash severance payment or accelerated vesting of shares) provided under this Agreement. Additionally, unless the Release is executed by you and becomes fully
effective under the terms set forth in the Release, any acceleration of your stock awards as provided under this Agreement shall not apply and your stock awards in such event may be exercised following the date of your termination only to the extent
provided under the Plan. 
  
 9.  Dispute Resolution.    If a dispute
arises between the parties, the parties agree to use the following dispute resolution procedure: 
  
 9.1  Meet and Confer.    A meeting shall be held promptly between the parties, attended by individuals with decision-making authority regarding the dispute, to attempt, in good faith, to
negotiate a resolution of the dispute. 
  
 9.2  Mediation.    If within 15 days after such meeting, the parties have not succeeded in negotiating a resolution of the dispute, they agree to submit the dispute to mediation in San
Diego, California, under the auspices of, and in accordance with the rules of, JAMS/Endispute (“JAMS”). The parties will jointly appoint a mutually acceptable mediator, seeking assistance in such regard from JAMS if they are unable to
agree upon such appointment. The cost of the mediator and any administrative fee shall be shared equally by the parties. The parties agree to participate in good faith in the mediation and negotiations related thereto for a period of not less than
15 days. If the parties are not successful in resolving the dispute through mediation, then the parties agree that the dispute shall be decided by arbitration as provided below. 
  
 9.3  Arbitration.    If the parties have been unable to resolve their dispute through mediation, as provided
above, any remaining controversy or claim arising out of, or relating to, the employment relationship or subject matter of this Agreement, or the making, performance or interpretation hereof, shall be decided by binding arbitration in San Diego,
California. The arbitration shall be conducted under the auspices of, and in accordance with the rules of JAMS, by a neutral arbitrator who is mutually agreeable to the 
 

 6 

 
parties hereto, or appointed by JAMS if the parties cannot agree. There will be only one arbitrator appointed. The cost of the arbitrator and any administrative fees shall be shared equally by
the parties. The arbitrator may award damages as well as equitable and declaratory relief. The arbitration award shall be final and conclusive upon the parties and a judgment or decree upon the award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction
over the subject matter of the controversy. 
  
 9.4  Provisional Remedies and
Injunctive Relief.    Notwithstanding the agreement to submit disputes to negotiation, mediation and arbitration, as provided above, either party may seek from a court of competent jurisdiction any provisional or interim
relief that is necessary to protect the rights or property of that party. Such provisional or interim relief may include, without limitation, restraining orders and other injunctive relief necessary to preserve the status quo based on claims for
unfair competition and/or misappropriation of trade secrets and/or solicitation, as referenced in Exhibit A attached hereto. 
  
 Notice: by initialing in the space below, you are agreeing to have any dispute arising out of the matters included in the “Arbitration” provision decided by neutral arbitration as provided by law and you are giving up
any rights you might possess to have the dispute litigated in a court or jury trial. By initialing in the space below, you are giving up your judicial rights to discovery and appeal. If you refuse to submit to arbitration after agreeing to this
provision, you may be compelled to arbitrate under the authority of the California Code of Civil Procedure. Your agreement to this arbitration provision is voluntary. 
  
 WE HAVE READ AND UNDERSTAND THE FOREGOING AND AGREE TO SUBMIT DISPUTES ARISING OUT OF THE MATTERS INCLUDED IN THE “ARBITRATION” PROVISION, WHICH INCLUDE ANY
CLAIMS FOR WRONGFUL TERMINATION, DISCRIMINATION OR HARASSMENT, TO NEUTRAL BINDING ARBITRATION. BY PLACING THEIR INITIALS HERE, THE PARTIES AGREE TO BINDING ARBITRATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE FOREGOING PROVISION. 
  
 
	 Company:      DR            
 	 	 Employee:      AS            
 

 
  
 10.  General Provisions. 
  
 10.1  Severability.    Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement
will be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect under any applicable law or rule in any jurisdiction, such
invalidity, illegality or unenforceability will not affect any other provision or any other jurisdiction, but such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision will be reformed, construed and enforced in such jurisdiction so as to render it valid,
legal, and enforceable consistent with the intent of the parties insofar as possible. 
 

 7

 EXHIBIT A 
  
 EMPLOYEE PROPRIETARY INFORMATION AND INVENTIONS AGREEMENT 
  
 In consideration this employment agreement, employee’s continued employment with the company and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged by Mad Catz Inc., and Andrew C. Schmidt
(collectively, the “Parties), the Parties hereby agree that that Agreement entitled AGREEMENT RELATING TO EMPLOYEE CONFIDENTIALITY, NON-DISCLOSURE AND ASSIGNMENT OF INVENTIONS, PATENTS, IDEAS AND DISCOVERIES and attached hereto as Exhibit A is
hereby made part of this employment agreement. 

  
 EXHIBIT B 
  
 RELEASE AGREEMENT 
  
 I understand that
my position with GTR/Mad Catz (the “Company”) terminated effective             ,              (the “Separation
Date”). The Company has agreed that if I choose to sign this Release, the Company will pay me certain severance benefits pursuant to the terms of the Employment Agreement (the “Agreement”) between myself and the Company, and any
agreements incorporated therein by reference. I understand that I am not entitled to such benefits unless I sign this Release and it becomes fully effective. I understand that, regardless of whether I sign this Release, the Company will pay me all
of my accrued salary and vacation through the Separation Date, to which I am entitled by law. 
  
 In consideration
for the severance benefits I am receiving under the Agreement, I hereby release the Company and its officers, directors, agents, attorneys, employees, shareholders, parents, subsidiaries, and affiliates from any and all claims, liabilities, demands,
causes of action, attorneys’ fees, damages or obligations of every kind and nature, whether they are now known or unknown, arising at any time prior to the date I sign this Release and which arise out of my employment or my termination of
employment with the Company, including, without limitation, any such claims based on federal and state statutory and common law, breach of contract, tort, wrongful termination, discrimination, wages or benefits, or claims for any form of
compensation for services. Notwithstanding the foregoing, I am not releasing any right of indemnification I may have for any liabilities arising from my actions within the course and scope of my employment with the Company. Notwithstanding anything
herein to the contrary, the release described herein does not apply to any rights or obligations arising under this Release Agreement. 
  
 In releasing claims unknown to me at present, I am waiving all rights and benefits under Section 1542 of the California Civil Code, and any law or legal principle of similar effect in any jurisdiction: “A general
release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in your favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him must have materially affected your settlement with the debtor.” 

 
 If I am forty (40) years of age or older as of the Separation Date, I acknowledge that I am knowingly and voluntarily waiving
and releasing any rights I may have under the federal Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, as amended (“ADEA”). I also acknowledge that the consideration given for the waiver in the above paragraph is in addition to anything of
value to which I was already entitled. I have been advised by this writing, as required by the ADEA that: (a) my waiver and release do not apply to any claims that may arise after my signing of this Release; (b) I should consult with an attorney
prior to executing this Release; (c) I have twenty-one (21) days within which to consider this Release (although I may choose to voluntarily execute this Release earlier); (d) I have seven (7) days following the execution of this release to revoke
the Release; and (e) this Release will not be effective until the eighth day after this Release has been signed both by me and by the Company (“Effective Date”).

Revolving Loans and the Letter of Credit Accommodations outstanding at any time shall not exceed the Maximum Credit. In the event that the outstanding amount of any component of the Revolving Loans, or the aggregate amount of the outstanding
Revolving Loans and Letter of Credit Accommodations, exceeds the amounts available under the lending formulas, the sublimits for Letter of Credit Accommodations set forth in Section 2.2(d) hereof or the Maximum Credit, as applicable, such event
shall not limit, waive or otherwise affect any rights of Lender in that circumstance or on any future occasions and Borrower shall, upon demand by Lender, which may be made at any time or from time to time, immediately repay to Lender the entire

Inventory as Revolving Loans to the extent Lender is in effect basing the issuance of the Letter of Credit Accommodations on the Value of the Eligible Inventory being purchased with such Letter of Credit Accommodations. In determining the actual
amounts of such Letter of Credit Accommodations to be so treated for purposes of the sublimit, the outstanding Revolving Loans and Availability Reserves shall be attributed first to any components of the lending formulas in Section 2.1(a) hereof
that are not subject to such sublimit, before being attributed to the components of the lending formulas subject to such sublimit. 
 

 16

 (a)  Subject to and upon the terms and conditions contained herein, at the request of Borrower, Lender agrees to
provide or arrange for Letter of Credit Accommodations for the account of Borrower containing terms and conditions acceptable to Lender and the issuer thereof. Any payments made by Lender to any issuer thereof and/or related parties in connection

 (b)  In addition to any charges, fees or expenses charged by any bank or issuer in connection with the Letter of Credit Accommodations, Borrower shall pay to Lender a letter of credit fee at
a rate equal to one and one-quarter percent (1.25%) per annum on the daily outstanding balance of the Letter of Credit Accommodations for the immediately preceding month (or part thereof), payable in arrears as of the first day of each succeeding
month, except that Borrower shall pay to Lender such letter of credit fee, at Lender’s option, without notice, at a rate equal to three and three-quarters percent (3.75%) per annum on such daily outstanding balance for: (i) the period from and
after the date of termination or non-renewal hereof until Lender has received full and final payment of all Obligations (notwithstanding entry of a judgment against Borrower) and (ii) the period from and after the date of the occurrence of an Event
of Default for so long as such Event of Default is continuing as determined by Lender. Such letter of credit fee shall be calculated on the basis of a three hundred sixty (360) day year and actual days elapsed and the obligation of Borrower to pay
such fee shall survive the termination or non-renewal of this Agreement. 
  
 (c)  No Letter
of Credit Accommodations shall be available unless on the date of the proposed issuance of any Letter of Credit Accommodations, the Revolving Loans available to Borrower (subject to the Maximum Credit, the Maximum Letter of Credit Facility and any
Availability Reserves) are equal to or greater than: (i) if the proposed Letter of Credit Accommodation is for the purpose of purchasing Eligible Inventory and all negotiable documents of title with respect to such Eligible Inventory have been
consigned to the issuer of the Letter of Credit Accommodation, the sum of (A) the percentage equal to one hundred (100%) percent minus the then applicable percentage set forth in Section 2.1(a)(ii)(B) above of the Value of such Eligible Inventory,
plus (B) freight, taxes, duty and other amounts which Lender estimates must be paid in connection with such Inventory upon arrival and for delivery to one of Borrower’s locations for Eligible Inventory within the United States of America and
(ii) if the proposed Letter of Credit Accommodation is for any other purpose, an amount equal to one hundred (100%) percent of the face amount thereof and all other commitments and obligations made or incurred by Lender with respect thereto.
Effective on the issuance of each 
 

 17 

 Letter of Credit Accommodation, an Availability Reserve shall be established in the applicable amount set forth in
Section 2.2(c)(i) or Section 2.2(c)(ii) hereof. 
  
 (d)  Except in Lender’s
discretion, the amount of all outstanding Letter of Credit Accommodations and all other commitments and obligations made or incurred by Lender in connection therewith shall not at any time exceed the Maximum Letter of Credit Facility. At any time an
Event of Default exists or has occurred and is continuing, upon Lender’s request, Borrower will either furnish cash collateral to secure the reimbursement obligations to the issuer in connection with any Letter of Credit Accommodations or
furnish cash collateral to US Collateral Agent for the Letter of Credit Accommodations, and in either case, the Revolving Loans otherwise available to Borrower shall not be reduced as provided in Section 2.2(c) hereof to the extent of such cash
collateral. 
  
 (e)  Borrower shall indemnify and hold Lender harmless from and against any
and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs and expenses which Lender may suffer or incur in connection with any Letter of Credit Accommodations and any documents, drafts or acceptances relating thereto, including, but not limited to, any
losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs and expenses due to any action taken by any issuer or correspondent with respect to any Letter of Credit Accommodation. Borrower assumes all risks with respect to the acts or omissions of the drawer under
or beneficiary of any Letter of Credit Accommodation and for such purposes the drawer or beneficiary shall be deemed Borrower’s agent. Borrower assumes all risks for, and agrees to pay, all foreign, Federal, State and local taxes, duties and
levies relating to any goods subject to any Letter of Credit Accommodations or any documents, drafts or acceptances thereunder. Borrower hereby releases and holds Lender harmless from and against any acts, waivers, errors, delays or omissions,
whether caused by Borrower, by any issuer or correspondent or otherwise with respect to or relating to any Letter of Credit Accommodation. The provisions of this Section 2.2(e) shall survive the payment of Obligations and the termination or
non-renewal of this Agreement. 
  
 (f)  Nothing contained herein shall be deemed or
construed to grant Borrower any right or authority to pledge the credit of Lender in any manner. Lender shall have no liability of any kind with respect to any Letter of Credit Accommodation provided by an issuer other than Lender unless Lender has
duly executed and delivered to such issuer the application or a guarantee or indemnification in writing with respect to such Letter of Credit Accommodation. Borrower shall be bound by any interpretation made by Lender, or any other issuer or
correspondent under or in connection with any Letter of Credit Accommodation or any documents, drafts or acceptances thereunder, notwithstanding that such interpretation may be inconsistent with any instructions of Borrower. Lender shall have

 

 18 

 the sole and exclusive right and authority to, and Borrower shall not at any time while an Event of Default exists, (A)
approve or resolve any questions of non-compliance of documents, (B) give any instructions as to acceptance or rejection of any documents or goods, (C) execute any and all applications for steamship or airway guarantees, indemnities or delivery
orders, (D) grant any extensions of the maturity of, time of payment for, or time of presentation of, any drafts, acceptances, or documents, or (E) agree to any amendments, renewals, extensions, modifications, changes or cancellations of any of the
terms or conditions of any of the applications, Letter of Credit Accommodations, or documents, drafts or acceptances thereunder or any letters of credit included in the Collateral. Lender may take such actions either in its own name or in
Borrower’s name.

 4.1  Conditions Precedent to All
Loans and Letter of Credit Accommodations 
  
 Each of the following is a condition precedent to Lender continuing to
making Loans and/or providing Letter of Credit Accommodations to Borrower: 
  
 (a)  all
representations and warranties contained in the Original Credit Agreement and in the other Financing Agreements shall be true and correct in all material respects with the same effect as though such representations and warranties had been made on
and as of the date of the making of each such Loan or providing each such Letter of Credit Accommodation and after giving effect thereto, except with respect to those representations and warranties that were or are expressly made as of 

 21 

 a particular date and except to the extent that there are changes with respect to matters referenced in such
representations and warranties after the date thereof that do not and will not otherwise cause a Default or Event of Default hereunder; and 
  
 (b)  no Event of Default and no event or condition which, with notice or passage of time or both, would constitute an Event of Default, shall exist or have occurred and be continuing on and
as of the date of the making of such Loan or providing each such Letter of Credit Accommodation or after giving effect thereto. 
  
 5.    COLLECTION AND ADMINISTRATION 
  
 5.1  Borrower’s
Loan Account 
  
 Lender shall maintain one or more loan account(s) on its books in which shall be recorded (a)
all Loans, Letter of Credit Accommodations and other Obligations and the Collateral, (b) all payments made by or on behalf of Borrower and (c) all other appropriate debits and credits as provided in this Agreement, including fees, charges, costs,
expenses and interest. All entries in the loan account(s) shall be made in accordance with Lender’s customary practices as in effect from time to time. 
  
 5.2  Statements 
  
 Lender shall render to Borrower
each month a statement setting forth the balance in Borrower’s loan account(s) maintained by Lender for Borrower pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, including principal, interest, fees, costs and expenses. Each such statement shall be
subject to subsequent adjustment by Lender but shall, absent manifest errors or omissions, be considered correct and deemed accepted by Borrower and conclusively binding upon Borrower as an account stated except to the extent that Lender receives a
written notice from Borrower of any specific exceptions of Borrower thereto within thirty (30) days after the date such statement has been mailed by Lender. Until such time as Lender shall have rendered to Borrower a written statement as provided
above, the balance in Borrower’s loan account(s) shall be presumptive evidence of the amounts due and owing to Lender by Borrower. 
  
 5.3  Collection of Accounts 
  
 (a)  Borrower
shall establish and maintain, at its expense, blocked accounts (“Blocked Accounts”), with such banks as are acceptable to Lender into which Borrower shall, in accordance with Lender’s instructions, promptly deposit all payments on
Accounts and all payments constituting proceeds of Inventory or other Collateral in the identical form in which such payments are made, whether by cash, check or other manner. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default,
Lender may, and Borrower shall upon Lender’s request, direct Borrower’s account debtors to directly remit all payment on Accounts to the Blocked Accounts. The banks at which the Blocked Accounts are established shall enter into an
agreement, in form and substance satisfactory to Lender, 
 

 22 

 providing that all items received or deposited in the Blocked Accounts are the property of Lender, that the depository
bank has no lien upon, or right to setoff against, the Blocked Accounts, the items received for deposit therein, or the funds from time to time on deposit therein and that the depository bank will wire, or otherwise transfer, in immediately
available funds, on a daily basis, all funds received or deposited into the Blocked Accounts to such bank account of Lender as Lender may from time to time designate for such purpose (“Payment Account”). Borrower agrees that all payments
made to such Blocked Accounts or other funds received and collected by Lender, whether on the Accounts or as proceeds of Inventory or other Collateral or otherwise shall be the security of Lender. 
  
 (b)  For purposes of calculating the amount of the Loans available to Borrower, such payments will be applied
(conditional upon final collection) to the Obligations on the Business Day of receipt by Lender of immediately available funds in a Payment Account provided such payments and notice thereof are received in accordance with Lender’s usual and
customary practices as in effect from time to time and within sufficient time to credit Borrower’s loan account on such day, and if not, then on the next Business Day. For the purposes of calculating interest on the Obligations, such payments
or other funds received will be applied (conditional upon final collection) to the Obligations on the date of receipt of immediately available funds by Lender in the applicable Payment Account provided such payments or other funds and notice thereof
are received in accordance with Lender’s usual and customary practices as in effect from time to time and within sufficient time to credit Borrower’s loan account on such day, and if not, then on the next Business Day. If Lender receives
funds in a Payment Account at any time at which no Obligations are outstanding or in excess of such outstanding Obligations, Lender shall transfer such funds to Borrower at such account as Borrower may direct, provided that Borrower shall, at
Lender’s request, deposit such funds to an account maintained at the bank at which the Payment Accounts are maintained and, prior to such transfer, shall execute and deliver to Lender a cash collateral agreement in form and substance
satisfactory to Lender providing to Lender a first priority Lien over such account. 
  
 (c) Borrower
and all of its U.S. affiliates and subsidiaries, and the shareholders, directors, employees and/or agents of Borrower and each such affiliate and subsidiary shall, acting as trustee for Lender, receive, as the security of Lender, any monies, checks,
notes, drafts or any other payment relating to and/or proceeds of Accounts or other Collateral which come into their possession or under their control and immediately upon receipt thereof, shall deposit or cause the same to be deposited in the
Blocked Accounts, or remit the same or cause the same to be remitted, in kind, to Lender, but in no event shall any of the foregoing monies, checks, notes, drafts or any other such payment be commingled with Borrower’s 
 

 23 

 other funds. Borrower agrees to reimburse Lender on demand for any amounts owed or paid to any bank at which a Blocked
Account is established or any other bank or person involved in the transfer of funds to or from the Blocked Accounts arising out of Lender’s payments to or indemnification of such bank or person (other than to the extent that such amount arises
directly from Lender’s or such other party’s negligence or willful misconduct). The obligation of Borrower to reimburse Lender for such amounts pursuant to this Section 5.3 shall survive the termination or non-renewal of this
Agreement. 
  
 5.4  Payments 
  
 All Obligations shall be payable to the Payment Accounts as provided in Section 5.3 or such other place as Lender may designate from time to time. Lender may apply payments
received or collected from Borrower or for the account of Borrower (including the monetary proceeds of collections or of realization upon any Collateral) to such of the Obligations, whether or not then due, in such order and manner as Lender
determines. Payments and collections received in any currency other than US Dollars or Canadian Dollars will be accepted and/or applied at the sole discretion of Lender. At Lender’s option, all principal, interest, fees, costs, expenses and
other charges provided for in this Agreement or the other Financing Agreements may be charged directly to the loan account(s) of Borrower. Borrower shall make all payments to Lender on the Obligations free and clear of, and without deduction or
withholding for or on account of, any setoff, counterclaim, defense, duties, taxes, levies, imposts, fees, deductions, withholding, restrictions or conditions of any kind. If after receipt of any payment of, or proceeds of Collateral applied to the
payment of, any of the Obligations, Lender is required to surrender or return such payment or proceeds to any Person for any reason, then the Obligations intended to be satisfied by such payment or proceeds shall be reinstated and continue and this
Agreement shall continue in full force and effect as if such payment or proceeds had not been received by Lender. Borrower shall be liable to pay to Lender, and does hereby indemnify and hold Lender harmless for the amount of any payments or
proceeds surrendered or returned. This Section 5.4 shall remain effective notwithstanding any contrary action which may be taken by Lender in reliance upon such payment or proceeds. This Section 5.4 shall survive the payment of the Obligations and
the termination or non-renewal of this Agreement. 
  
 5.5  Authorization to Make Loans 

 
 Lender is authorized to make the Loans and provide the Letter of Credit Accommodations based upon telephonic instructions or
instructions sent by courier, telecopier or by e-mail received from anyone purporting to be an officer of Borrower or other authorized person or, at the discretion of Lender, if such Loans are necessary to satisfy any Obligations. All requests for
Loans or Letter of Credit Accommodations hereunder shall specify the date on which the requested advance is to be made or Letter of Credit Accommodations established (which day shall be a Business Day) and the amount of the requested Loan. Requests
received after 10:00 a.m. Chicago time on any day shall be deemed to have been made as of the opening of business on the immediately following Business Day. All Loans and Letter of Credit Accommodations under this Agreement shall be conclusively
presumed to have been made to, 
 

 24 

 and at the request of and for the benefit of, Borrower when deposited to the credit of Borrower or otherwise disbursed or established in
accordance with the instructions of Borrower or in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement. 
  
 5.6  Use of Proceeds 
  
 All Loans made or Letter of Credit Accommodations provided
by Lender to Borrower pursuant to the provisions hereof shall be used by Borrower only for general operating, working capital and other proper corporate purposes of Borrower not otherwise prohibited by the terms hereof. 
  
 6.    COLLATERAL REPORTING AND COVENANTS 
  
 6.1  Collateral Reporting 
  
 Borrower shall provide
Lender with the following documents in a form satisfactory to Lender: (a) on a regular basis as required by Lender, a schedule of Accounts, sales made, credits issued and cash received; (b) on a monthly basis within twenty (20) days after each month

shipper or agent to deliver such records, reports, and related documents to Lender and to follow Lender’s instructions with respect to further services at any time that an Event of Default exists. 
  
 6.2  Accounts Covenants 
  
 (a)  Borrower shall notify Lender promptly of: (i) any material delay in Borrower’s performance of any of its obligations to any account
debtor or the assertion of any claims, offsets, defenses or counterclaims by any account debtor, or any disputes with account debtors, or any settlement, adjustment or compromise thereof, (ii) all material adverse information relating to the
financial condition of any account debtor and (iii) any event or circumstance which, to Borrower’s knowledge would cause Lender to consider any then existing Accounts as no longer constituting Eligible Accounts. No credit, discount, allowance
or extension or agreement for any of the foregoing shall be granted to any account debtor without Lender’s consent, except in the ordinary course of Borrower’s business in 
 

 25 

 accordance with practices and policies previously disclosed in writing to Lender. So long as no Event of Default exists,
Borrower shall settle, adjust or compromise any claim, offset, counterclaim or dispute with any account debtor. At any time that an Event of Default exists, Lender shall, at its option, have the exclusive right to settle, adjust or compromise any
claim, offset, counterclaim or dispute with account debtors or grant any credits, discounts or allowances. 
  
 (b)  Without limiting the obligation of Borrower to deliver any other information to Lender, Borrower shall promptly report to Lender any return of Inventory by any one account debtor if the inventory so returned in such
case has a value in excess of $250,000. At any time that Inventory is returned, reclaimed or repossessed, the Account (or portion thereof) which arose from the sale of such returned, reclaimed or repossessed Inventory shall not be deemed an Eligible
Account. In the event any account debtor returns Inventory when an Event of Default exists, Borrower shall, upon Lender’s request, (i) hold the returned Inventory in trust for Lender, (ii) segregate all returned Inventory from all of its other
property, (iii) dispose of the returned Inventory solely according to Lender’s instructions, and (iv) not issue any credits, discounts or allowances with respect thereto without Lender’s prior written consent. 
  
 (c)  With respect to each Account: (i) the amounts shown on any invoice delivered to Lender or schedule thereof
delivered to Lender shall be true and complete in all material respects, (ii) no payments shall be made thereon except payments immediately delivered to Lender pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, (iii) no credit, discount, allowance or
extension or agreement for any of the foregoing shall be granted to any account debtor except as reported to Lender in accordance with this Agreement and except for credits, rebates, price protection programs, early payment incentives, discounts,
allowances or extensions made or given in the ordinary course of Borrower’s business in accordance with practices and policies previously disclosed to Lender, (iv) there shall be no setoffs, deductions, contras, defenses, counterclaims or
disputes existing or asserted with respect thereto except as reported to Lender in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, (v) none of the transactions giving rise thereto will violate any applicable federal, state or provincial laws or
regulations applicable to Borrower or any Obligor, all documentation relating thereto will be legally sufficient under such laws and regulations and all such documentation will be legally enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as the same
may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights and the discretion of the court as to the granting of equitable remedies. 
  
 (d)  Lender shall have the right at any time or times, in Lender’s name or in the name of a nominee of Lender, to verify the validity, amount
or any other 
 

 26 

 matter relating to any Account or other Collateral, by mail, telephone, facsimile transmission or otherwise.

  
 (e)  Borrower shall deliver or cause to be delivered to US Collateral Agent, with
appropriate endorsement and assignment, with full recourse to Borrower, all chattel paper and instruments which Borrower now owns or may at any time acquire immediately upon Borrower’s receipt thereof, except as US Collateral Agent may
otherwise agree. 
  
 (f)  US Collateral Agent may, at any time or times that an Event of
Default exists, (i) notify any or all account debtors that the Accounts have been assigned to US Collateral Agent and that US Collateral Agent has a Lien therein and Lender may direct any or all accounts debtors to make payment of Accounts directly
to US Collateral Agent, (ii) extend the time of payment of, compromise, settle or adjust for cash, credit, return of merchandise or otherwise, and upon any terms or conditions, any and all Accounts or other obligations included in the Collateral and
thereby discharge or release the account debtor or any other party or parties in any way liable for payment thereof without affecting any of the Obligations, (iii) demand, collect or enforce payment of any Accounts or such other obligations, but
without any duty to do so, and US Collateral Agent shall not be liable for its failure to collect or enforce the payment thereof nor for the negligence of its agents or attorneys with respect thereto and (iv) take whatever other action US Collateral
Agent may deem necessary or desirable for the protection of its interests. At any time that an Event of Default exists, at US Collateral Agent’s request, all invoices and statements sent to any account debtor shall state that the Accounts and
such other obligations have been assigned to US Collateral Agent and are payable directly and only to US Collateral Agent and Borrower shall deliver to Lender such originals of documents evidencing the sale and delivery of goods or the performance
of services giving rise to any Accounts as US Collateral Agent may require. 
  
 6.3  Inventory
Covenants

rules, regulations and orders related thereto); (f) Borrower assumes all responsibility and liability arising from or relating to the production, use, sale or other disposition of the Inventory; (g) Borrower shall not sell Inventory to any customer
on approval, or any other basis which entitles the customer to return or may obligate Borrower to repurchase such Inventory, except in the ordinary course of business or unless such Inventory is not Eligible Inventory; (h) Borrower shall keep the
Inventory in good and marketable condition; and (i) Borrower shall not, without prior written notice to Lender, acquire or accept any Inventory on consignment or approval.

for the benefit of Borrower in the ordinary course of business; (f) the Equipment is now and shall remain personal property and Borrower shall not permit any of the Equipment to be or become a part of or affixed to real property; and (g) Borrower

Attorney 
  
 Borrower hereby irrevocably designates and appoints US Collateral Agent (and all persons designated
by Lender) as Borrower’s true and lawful attorney-in-fact, and authorizes US Collateral Agent, in Borrower’s or US Collateral Agent’s name, to: (a) at any time while an Event of Default exits (i) demand payment on Accounts or other
proceeds of Inventory or other Collateral, (ii) enforce payment of Accounts by legal proceedings or otherwise, (iii) exercise all of Borrower’s rights and remedies to collect any Account or other Collateral, (iv) sell or assign any Account upon

 29 

  
 7.    REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES 
  
 Borrower hereby represents and warrants to Lender the following (which shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement), the
truth and accuracy of which are a continuing condition of the making of Loans and providing Letter of Credit Accommodations by Lender to Borrower: 
  
 7.1  Corporate Existence, Power and Authority; Subsidiaries 
  
 Borrower and each Obligor is a corporation duly incorporated, validly existing and duly organized under the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation and is duly qualified or registered as a foreign or extra-provincial corporation in
all provinces, states or other jurisdictions where the nature and extent of the business transacted by it or the ownership of assets makes such qualification necessary, except for those jurisdictions in which the failure to so qualify would not have
a Material Adverse Effect on Borrower’s or any Obligor’s financial condition, results of operation or business or the rights of US Collateral Agent in or to any of the Collateral. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement,
the other Financing Agreements and the transactions contemplated hereunder and thereunder are all within Borrower’s and each Obligor’s corporate powers, have been duly authorized and are not in contravention of law or the terms of
Borrower’s or any Obligor’s certificate of incorporation, by-laws, or other organizational documentation, or any indenture, agreement or undertaking to which Borrower or any Obligor is a party or by which Borrower or any Obligor or their
respective property are bound except to the extent that certain Collateral may not be assignable by law. This Agreement and the other Financing Agreements constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of Borrower enforceable in accordance with
their respective terms, except as the same is limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally, and the discretion of the court as to the granting of equitable remedies. Borrower does not have any
subsidiaries except as set forth on the Information Certificate. 
  
 7.2  Financial Statements; No
Material Adverse Change 
  
 All financial statements relating to Borrower or any Obligor which have been or may
hereafter be delivered by or on behalf of Borrower or any Obligor to Lender have been or will be prepared in accordance with GAAP and fairly present the financial condition and the results of operation of Borrower or such Obligor as at the dates and
for the periods set forth therein. Except as disclosed in any interim financial statements furnished by or on behalf of Borrower or any Obligor to Lender prior to the date of the Original Credit Agreement, there has been no Material Adverse Change
of Borrower or any Obligor, since the date of the most recent audited financial statements furnished by or on behalf of Borrower or any Obligor to Lender prior to the date of the Original Credit Agreement. 
 

 30 

  
 7.3  Chief Executive Office; Collateral Locations 

 
 The chief executive office of Borrower and Borrower’s Records concerning Accounts are located only at the address set
forth below and its only other places of business and the only other locations of Collateral, if any, are the addresses set forth in the Information Certificate and such new locations, if any, heretofore established by Borrower prior to the date
hereof in accordance with the Original Credit Agreement, subject to the right of Borrower to establish new locations in accordance with Section 8.2 below. The Information Certificates correctly identify the chief executive office of each
Obligor and all other places of business and other locations, if any, at which any Obligor maintained any Collateral, in all such respects, as of the date of the Original Credit Agreement. The Information Certificates also correctly identify any of
such locations which are not owned by Borrower or any Obligor and sets forth the owners and/or operators thereof and to the best of Borrower’s knowledge, the holders of any mortgages on such locations as of the date of the Original Credit
Agreement. Lender acknowledges that the Borrower has moved its chief executive office to 7480 Mission Valley Road, Suite 101, San Diego, California 92108.

 9.2  Remedies 
  
 (a)  At any time while an Event
of Default exists Lender and US Collateral Agent shall have all rights and remedies provided in this Agreement, the other Financing Agreements, the Uniform Commercial Code and other applicable law, all of which rights and remedies may be exercised
without notice to or consent by Borrower or any Obligor, except as such notice or consent is expressly provided for hereunder or required by applicable law. All rights, remedies and powers granted to Lender hereunder, under any of the other
Financing Agreements, the Uniform Commercial Code or either applicable law, are cumulative, not exclusive and enforceable, in Lender’s and US Collateral Agent’s discretion, alternatively, successively, or concurrently on any one or more
occasion, and shall include, without limitation, the right to apply to a court of equity for an injunction to restrain a breach or threatened by Borrower of this Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements. Lender and/or US Collateral Agent
may, at any time or times, proceed directly against Borrower or any Obligor to collect the Obligations without prior recourse to the Collateral. 
  
 (b)  Without limiting the foregoing, at any time an Event of Default exists, Lender may, in its discretion and without limitation, (i) accelerate the payment of all Obligations and demand
immediate payment thereof to Lender (provided, that, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default described in Sections 9.1(g) and 9.1(h), all Obligations shall automatically become immediately due and payable), (ii) with or without judicial process
or the aid or assistance of others, enter upon any premises on or in which any of the Collateral may be located and take possession of the Collateral or complete processing, manufacturing and repair of all or any portion of the Collateral and carry
on the business of Borrower, (iii) require Borrower, at Borrower’s expense, to assemble and make available to US Collateral Agent any part or all of the Collateral at any place and time designated by US Collateral Agent, (iv) collect,
foreclose, receive, appropriate, setoff and realize upon any and all Collateral, (v) remove any or all of the Collateral from any premises on or in which the same may be located for the purpose of effecting the sale, foreclosure or other disposition
thereof or for any other purpose, (vi) sell, lease, transfer, assign, deliver or otherwise dispose of any and all Collateral (including entering into contracts with respect thereto, public or private sales at any exchange, broker’s board, at
any office of US Collateral Agent or elsewhere) at such prices or terms as US Collateral Agent may deem reasonable, for cash, upon credit or for future delivery, with US Collateral Agent having the right to purchase the whole or any part of the
Collateral at any such public sale, all of the foregoing being free from any right or equity of redemption of Borrower, which right or equity of redemption is 
 

 48 

 
hereby expressly waived and released by Borrower, (vii) borrow money and use the Collateral directly or indirectly in carrying on Borrower’s business or as security for loans or advances for
any such purposes, (viii) grant extensions of time and other indulgences, take and give up security, accept compositions, grant releases and discharges, and otherwise deal with Borrower, debtors of Borrower, sureties and others as US Collateral
Agent may see fit without prejudice to the liability of Borrower or US Collateral Agent’s right to hold and realize the Lien created under any Financing Agreement, and/or (ix) terminate this Agreement. If any of the Collateral is sold or leased
by US Collateral Agent upon credit terms or for future delivery, the Obligations shall not be reduced as a result thereof until payment therefor is finally collected by US Collateral Agent. If notice of disposition of Collateral is required by law,
five (5) days prior notice by US Collateral Agent to Borrower designating the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale or other intended disposition of Collateral is to be made, shall be deemed to be reasonable
notice thereof and Borrower waives any other notice. In the event US Collateral Agent institutes an action to recover any Collateral or seeks recovery of any Collateral by way of pre-judgment remedy, Borrower waives the posting of any bond which
might otherwise be required. 
  
 (c)  Lender may apply the cash proceeds of Collateral
actually received by US Collateral Agent from any sale, lease, foreclosure or other disposition of the Collateral to payment of the Obligations, in whole or in part and in such order as Lender may elect, whether or not then due. Borrower shall
remain liable to Lender for the payment of any deficiency with interest at the highest rate provided for herein and all costs and expenses of collection or enforcement, including legal costs and expenses. 
  
 (d)  Without limiting the foregoing, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default or an event which with notice or
passage of time or both would constitute an Event of Default, and while such Event of Default or event is continuing, Lender may, at its option, without notice, (i) cease making Loans or arranging Letter of Credit Accommodations or reduce the
lending formulas or amounts of Revolving Loans and Letter of Credit Accommodations available to Borrower and/or (ii) terminate any provision of this Agreement providing for any future Loans or Letter of Credit Accommodations to be made by Lender to
Borrower. 
  
 (e)  Borrower shall pay all costs, charges and expenses incurred by Lender,
US Collateral Agent or any nominee or agent of Lender or US Collateral Agent, whether directly or for services rendered (including, without limitation, auditor’s costs and legal expenses) in enforcing this Agreement or any other Financing
Agreement and in enforcing or collecting Obligations and all such expenses together with any money owing as a 
 

 49 

 
result of any borrowing permitted hereby shall be a charge on the proceeds of realization and shall be secured hereby.

 10.1  Governing Law; Choice of Forum; Service of Process; Jury Trial Waiver 
  
 (a)  The validity, interpretation and enforcement of this Agreement and the other Financing Agreements and any dispute arising out of the relationship between the parties hereto, whether in

Agreement to be the governing law for that Financing Agreement. 
  
 (b)  Borrower, Lender
and US Collateral Agent irrevocably consent and submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the Circuit Court of Cook County, Illinois and the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois and waive any objection based on venue

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

(c)  To the extent permitted by law, Borrower hereby waives personal service of any and all process upon it and consents that all such
service of process may be made by certified mail (return receipt requested) directed to its address set forth on the signature pages hereof and service so made shall be deemed to be completed five (5) days after the same shall have been so deposited
in the US mails, or, at Lender’s or US Collateral Agent’s option, by service upon Borrower in any other manner provided under the rules of any such courts. Within thirty (30) days after such service, Borrower shall appear in answer to such
process, failing which Borrower shall be deemed in default and judgment may be entered by Lender or US Collateral Agent against Borrower for the amount of the claim and other relief requested. 
 

 50 

  
 (d)  BORROWER AND LENDER AND US COLLATERAL AGENT EACH
HEREBY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION (i) ARISING UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER FINANCING AGREEMENTS OR (ii) IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH OR RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THE DEALINGS OF THE
PARTIES HERETO IN RESPECT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER FINANCING AGREEMENTS OR THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED HERETO OR THERETO IN EACH CASE WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING, AND WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT, EQUITY OR OTHERWISE. BORROWER
AND LENDER AND US COLLATERAL AGENT EACH HEREBY AGREES AND CONSENTS THAT ANY SUCH CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION SHALL BE DECIDED BY COURT TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY AND THAT BORROWER, LENDER AND/OR US COLLATERAL AGENT MAY FILE AN ORIGINAL
COUNTERPART OF A COPY OF THIS AGREEMENT WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE CONSENT OF THE PARTIES HERETO TO THE WAIVER OF THEIR RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY. 
  
 (e)  Neither Lender nor US Collateral Agent shall have any liability to Borrower (whether in tort, contract, equity or otherwise) for losses
suffered by Borrower or any Obligor in connection with, arising out of, or in any way related to the transactions or relationships contemplated by this Agreement or any other Financing Agreement, or any act, omission or event occurring in connection
herewith, unless it is determined by a final and non-appealable judgment or court order binding on Lender and US Collateral Agent, that the losses were the result of acts or omissions constituting gross negligence or willful misconduct. In any such
litigation, each of Lender and US Collateral Agent shall be entitled to the benefit of the rebuttable presumption that it acted in good faith and with the exercise of ordinary care in the performance by it of the terms of this Agreement or any other
Financing Agreement. 
  
 (f)  Borrower hereby expressly waives all rights and notice and
hearing of any kind prior to the exercise of rights by Lender or US Collateral Agent while an Event of Default exists, to repossess the Collateral with judicial process or to replevy, attach or levy upon the Collateral or other security for the
Obligations. Borrower waives the posting of any bond otherwise required of Lender or US Collateral Agent in connection with any judicial process or proceeding to obtain possession of, replevy, attach or levy upon the Collateral or other security for
the Obligations, to enforce any judgment or other court order entered in favor of Lender or US Collateral Agent, or to enforce by specific performance, temporary restraining order, preliminary or permanent injunction, this Agreement or any other
Financing Agreement. 
 

 51 

  
 10.2  Waiver of Notices 
  
 Borrower hereby expressly waives demand, presentment, protest and notice of protest and notice of dishonor with respect to any and all
instruments and commercial paper, included in or evidencing any of the Obligations or the Collateral, and any and all other demands and notices of any kind or nature whatsoever with respect to the Obligations, the Collateral and this Agreement,
except such as are expressly provided for herein. No notice to or demand on Borrower or any Obligor which Lender or US Collateral Agent may elect to give shall entitle Borrower or any Obligor to any other or further notice or demand in the same,
similar or other circumstances. 
  
 10.3  Amendments and Waivers 
  
 Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof shall be amended, modified, waived or discharged orally or by course of conduct, but only
by a written agreement signed by an authorized officer of Lender and US Collateral Agent, and as to amendments, as also signed by an authorized officer of Borrower. Neither Lender nor US Collateral Agent shall, by any act, delay, omission or
otherwise be deemed to have expressly or impliedly waived any of its rights, powers and/or remedies unless such waiver shall be in writing and signed by an authorized officer of Lender or US Collateral Agent, as applicable. Any such waiver shall be
enforceable only to the extent specifically set forth therein. A waiver by Lender of any right, power and/or remedy on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to or waiver of any such right, power and/or remedy which Lender or US Collateral
Agent would otherwise have on any future occasion, whether similar in kind or otherwise. 
  
 10.4  Waiver of Counterclaims 
  
 Borrower waives all rights to interpose any
claims, deductions, setoffs or counterclaims of any nature (other than compulsory counterclaims) in any action or proceeding with respect to this Agreement, the Obligations, the Collateral or any matter arising therefrom or relating hereto or
thereto. 
  
 10.5  Indemnification 
  
 Borrower shall indemnify and hold Lender, US Collateral Agent and their respective directors, agents, employees and counsel, harmless from and against any and all losses,
claims, damages, liabilities, costs or expenses imposed on, incurred by or asserted against any of them in connection with any litigation, investigation, claim or proceeding commenced or threatened related to the negotiation, preparation, execution,
delivery, enforcement, performance or administration of this Agreement, any other Financing Agreements, or any undertaking or proceeding related to any of the transactions contemplated hereby or any act, omission, event or transaction related or
attendant thereto, including, without limitation, amounts paid in settlement, court costs, and the fees and expenses of counsel. To the extent that the undertaking to indemnify, pay and hold harmless set forth in this Section may be unenforceable
because it violates any law or public policy, Borrower shall pay the maximum portion which it is permitted to pay under applicable law to Lender and US Collateral Agent in satisfaction of indemnified matters under this Section. The foregoing
indemnity shall survive the payment of the 
 

 52 

 
Obligations and the termination or non-renewal of this Agreement. To the extent that any person that is entitled to the benefit of the indemnity set forth in this Section is not a party hereto,
Lender shall hold the benefit to which such person is entitled hereunder in trust for and on behalf of such person, provided that Borrower shall have no obligation hereunder to the extent of any liability resulting from the negligence or willful
misconduct of Lender or other Person referred to herein or with respect to Hazardous Materials deposited on any property after it is no longer owned, possessed or controlled by Borrower or any Obligor. 
  
 11.    TERM OF AGREEMENT; MISCELLANEOUS 
  
 11.1  Term 
  
 (a)  This
Agreement and the other Financing Agreements are effective as of the respective dates thereof set forth on the respective first pages thereof and shall continue in full force and effect for a term ending on September 25, 2003 (the “Renewal
Date”), and from year to year thereafter, unless sooner terminated pursuant to the terms hereof; provided, that, Lender may, at its option, extend the Renewal Date to the date that is one (1) year after such Renewal Date by giving
Borrower notice at least sixty (60) days prior to the Renewal Date, and thereafter this Agreement shall automatically be extended for additional one (1) year periods ending on the applicable anniversary of the Renewal Date. Lender or Borrower
(subject to Lender’s right to extend the Renewal Date as provided above) may terminate this Agreement and the other Financing Agreements effective on the Renewal Date or on the anniversary of the Renewal Date in any year by giving to the other
party at least sixty (60) days prior written notice; provided that, this Agreement and all other Financing Agreements must be terminated simultaneously. Upon the effective date of termination or non-renewal of the Financing Agreements,
Borrower shall pay to Lender, in full, all outstanding and unpaid Obligations and shall furnish cash collateral to Lender in such amounts as Lender determines are necessary to secure Lender from loss, cost, damage or expense, including legal fees
and expenses, in connection with any contingent Obligations, including issued and outstanding Letter of Credit Accommodations and checks or other payments provisionally credited to the Obligations and/or as to which Lender has not yet received final
and indefeasible payment. Such payments in respect of the Obligations and cash collateral shall be remitted by wire transfer in US Dollars to such bank account of Lender, as Lender may, in its discretion, designate in writing to Borrower for such
purpose. Interest shall be due until and including the next Business Day, if the amounts so paid by Borrower to the bank account designated by Lender are received in such bank account later than 12:00 noon, Chicago time. 
 

 53 

  
 (b)  No termination of this Agreement or the other
Financing Agreements shall relieve or discharge Borrower of its respective duties, obligations and covenants under this Agreement or the other Financing Agreements until all Obligations have been fully and finally discharged and paid, and US
Collateral Agent’s continuing Lien in the Collateral and the rights and remedies of Lender hereunder, under the other Financing Agreements and applicable law, shall remain in effect until all such Obligations have been fully and finally
discharged and paid. 
  
 (c)  If for any reason this Agreement is terminated prior to the
end of the then current term or renewal term of this Agreement, in view of the impracticality and extreme difficulty of ascertaining actual damages and by mutual agreement of the parties as to a reasonable calculation of Lender’s lost profits
as a result thereof, Borrower agrees to pay to Lender, upon the effective date of such termination, an early termination fee in the amount set forth below if such termination is effective in the period indicated: 
  
 
	  	  	 Amount
 
	  	 Period
 

	 (i)
 	  	 1.0% of Maximum Credit
 	  	 After September 25, 2001 to and including September 25, 2002.
 
	  	  	  	  	  
	 (ii)
 	  	 0.50% of Maximum Credit
 	  	 After September 25, 2002 to and including the Renewal Date or if the term of this Agreement is extended for a period
beyond the Renewal Date as provided above, then to and including the date to which the Renewal Date is extended.
 

 
  
 Such early termination fee shall be presumed to be the amount of
damages sustained by Lender as a result of such early termination and Borrower agrees that it is reasonable under the circumstances currently existing. In addition, Lender shall be entitled to such early termination fee upon the occurrence of any
Event of Default described in Section 9.1(g) and Section 9.1(h) hereof, even if Lender does not exercise its right to terminate this Agreement, but elects, at its option, to provide financing to Borrower or permit the use of cash collateral under
any applicable reorganization or insolvency legislation. The early termination fee provided for in this Section 11.1 shall be deemed included in the Obligations. 
 

 54 

  
 11.2  Notices 
  
 All notices, requests and demands hereunder shall be in writing and (a) made to US Collateral Agent and/or Lender at its address set forth
below and to Borrower at its chief executive office set forth below, or to such other address as either party may designate by written notice to the other in accordance with this provision, and (b) deemed to have been given or made: if delivered in
person, immediately upon delivery; if by facsimile transmission, immediately upon sending and upon confirmation of receipt; if by nationally recognized overnight courier service with instructions to deliver the next business day, one (1) Business
Day after sending; and if by certified mail, return receipt requested, five (5) days after mailing. 
  
 11.3  Partial Invalidity 
  
 If any provision of this Agreement is held to be
invalid or unenforceable, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not invalidate this Agreement as a whole, but this Agreement shall be construed as though it did not contain the particular provision held to be invalid or unenforceable and the
rights and obligations of the parties shall be construed and enforced only to such extent as shall be permitted by applicable law. 
  
 11.4  Successors 
  
 This Agreement, the other Financing Agreements and any
other document referred to herein or therein shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by US Collateral Agent, Lender, Borrower and their respective successors and assigns, except that Borrower may not assign its rights
under this Agreement, the other Financing Agreements and any other document referred to herein or therein without the prior written consent of Lender and US Collateral Agent. US Collateral Agent and/or Lender may, after notice to Borrower, assign
its rights and delegate its obligations under this Agreement and the other Financing Agreements and further may assign, or sell participations in, all or any part of the Loans, the Letter of Credit Accommodations or any other interest herein to
another financial institution or other person, provided that such assignment or participation, as applicable, does not create any withholding tax obligations of Borrower; and upon the completion of any such assignment or participation, as
applicable, such assignee or participant shall have, to the extent of such assignment or participation, the same rights and benefits as it would have if it were Lender and/or US Collateral Agent, as applicable, hereunder, subject to the terms of
such assignment or participation. 
  
 11.5  Entire Agreement 
  
 This Agreement, the other Financing Agreements, any supplements hereto or thereto, and any instruments or documents delivered or to be
delivered in connection herewith or therewith represents the entire agreement and understanding concerning the subject matter hereof and thereof between the parties hereto, and supersede all other prior agreements, understandings, negotiations and
discussions, representations, warranties, commitments, proposals, offers and contracts concerning the subject matter hereof, whether oral or written. In the event of any inconsistency between the terms of this Agreement and any schedule or exhibit
hereto, the terms of this Agreement shall govern.

 The division of this Agreement into Sections and the insertion of headings and a table of contents are for convenience of reference only
and shall not affect the construction or interpretation of this Agreement. 
  
 11.7  Judgment
Currency 
  
 To the extent permitted by applicable law, the obligations of Borrower in respect of any amount due
under this Agreement shall, notwithstanding any payment in any other currency (the “Other Currency”) (whether pursuant to a judgment or otherwise), be discharged only to the extent of the amount in the currency in which it is due (the
“Agreed Currency”) that Lender may, in accordance with normal banking procedures, purchase with the sum paid in the Other Currency (after any premium and costs of exchange) on the Business Day immediately after the day on which Lender
receives the payment. If the amount in the Agreed Currency that may be so purchased for any reason falls short of the amount originally due, Borrower shall pay all additional amounts, in the Agreed Currency, as may be necessary to compensate for the
shortfall. Any obligation of Borrower not discharged by that payment shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be due as a separate and independent obligation and, until discharged as provided in this Section, continue in full force and
effect. 
  
 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, US Collateral Agent, Lender and Borrower have caused these presents to be duly
executed as of the day and year first above written.
