1.  
LOANS AND LETTERS OF CREDIT.
 
1.1 Amount of Loans / Letters of Credit. Subject to the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement, including Sections 1.3 and 1.6, Lender shall, from time to time prior to the Maturity Date, at Borrower's request, (i) make revolving loans to Borrower ("Revolving Loans"), and (ii) make letters of credit ("Letters of Credit") available to Borrower; provided, that after giving effect to each such Revolving Loan and each such Letter of Credit, (A) the outstanding balance of all Revolving Loans and the Letter of Credit Balance will not exceed the lesser of (x) the Maximum Revolving Facility Amount and (y) the Borrowing Base, and (B) none of the other Loan Limits for Revolving Loans will be exceeded.
 
     1.2 Reserves re Revolving Loans / Letters of Credit. Lender may, with or without notice to Borrower, from time to time establish and revise reserves against the Borrowing Base and/or the Maximum Revolving Facility Amount in such amounts and of such types as Lender deems appropriate in its Permitted Discretion ("Reserves").  Such Reserves will be available for Borrower to view in Passport 6.0 simultaneously with the imposition thereof; provided, that Lender shall provide email notice advising Borrower of such Reserves prior to or simultaneously with the imposition of such Reserves; provided, further that Lender shall have no liability for failing to provide such email notice.  Without limiting the foregoing, references to Reserves shall include the Dilution Reserve, provided that in no event shall any Dilution Reserve be included in duplicate or to the extent there has been an adjustment to the advance rates hereunder on account of dilution that would otherwise form the basis of a 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 after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default or an Event of Default, Lender hereby is authorized by Borrower, from time to time, in Lender's Permitted Discretion, to make Revolving Loans to, or for the benefit of, Borrower, that Lender in its Permitted 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 if there is any change in the account to which Borrower shall specify, Borrower shall provide Lender with no less than 5 Business Days prior written notice) 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, upon the request the Borrower, subject to the 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 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 upon demand, on the date that such payment or disbursement is made if such demand is made by 11:00 a.m. or on the next Business if such demand is made after 11:00 a.m..  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 any Loan Party 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 any Loan Party 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.

(a) Loans and Letters of Credit Made and/or Issued on the Closing Date:  With respect to Loans made, and/or Letters of Credit issued, hereunder on the Closing Date, (i) each applicable Loan Party Obligor shall have duly executed and/or delivered, or, as applicable, shall have caused such other applicable Persons to have duly executed and or delivered, to Lender such agreements, instruments, documents, proxies and certificates as Lender may require, and including such other agreements, instruments, documents and/or certificates listed on the closing checklist attached hereto as Exhibit B; (ii) Lender shall have completed its business and legal due diligence pertaining to the Loan Parties, their respective businesses and assets, with results thereof satisfactory to Lender in its sole discretion; (iii) Lender's obligations and commitments under this Agreement shall have been approved by Lender's Credit Committee; (iv) after giving effect to such Loans and Letters of Credit, as well as to the payment of all trade payables older than 60 days past due, closing costs and any book overdraft, Excess Availability plus immediately available unencumbered cash on hand of Borrower shall be no less than $15,000,000; and (v) Borrower shall have paid to Lender all fees due on the date hereof, and shall have paid or reimbursed Lender for all of Lender's costs, charges and expenses incurred through the Closing Date (and in connection herewith, Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes Lender to charge such fees, costs, charges and expenses as Revolving Loans); and
 
(b) All Loans and/or Letters of Credit:  With respect to Loans made and/or Letters of Credit issued, on the Closing Date and/or at any time thereafter, in addition to the conditions specified in clause (a) above as applicable, (i) Borrower shall have provided to Lender the most recent Borrowing Base Certificate, as of such borrowing or issue date, after giving effect to such Loans and/or Letters of Credit, as applicable; (ii) each applicable Loan Party Obligor shall have duly executed and/or delivered, or, as applicable, shall have caused such other applicable Persons to have duly executed and or delivered, to Lender such further agreements, instruments, documents, proxies and certificates as required pursuant to Section 3.3 hereof; (iii) each of the representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement and in the other Loan Documents shall be true and correct in all respects as of the date such Loan is made and/or such Letter of Credit is issued (or to the extent any representations or warranties are expressly made solely as of an earlier date, such representations and warranties shall be true and correct as of such earlier date), both before and after giving effect thereto; and (iv) no Default or Event of Default shall be in existence, both before and after giving effect thereto.
 
1.7 Repayments.
 
(a) Revolving Loans/Letters of Credit.  If at any time (a) the sum of the outstanding balance of all Revolving Loans and the Letter of Credit Balance exceeds the lesser of (i) the Maximum Revolving Facility Amount and (ii) the Borrowing Base, or (b) any of the Loan Limits for Revolving Loans or Letters of Credit are exceeded, then in each case, Borrower will within one (1) Business Day pay to Lender such amounts (or, with respect to the Letter of Credit Balance, provide cash collateral to Lender in the manner set forth in clause (b) below) as shall cause Borrower to eliminate such excess.  For the avoidance of doubt, prior to any such excess being eliminated, Lender shall have no obligation to honor any request to fund a Revolving Loan or issue a Letter of Credit.
 
 
3
 
 
 
 
(b) Maturity Date Payments / Cash Collateral.  All remaining outstanding monetary Obligations (including, all accrued and unpaid fees described in the Fee Letter) shall be payable in full on the Maturity Date or, if earlier, the earlier of the date of any acceleration pursuant to Section 7.2 and the Termination Date. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if, on the Maturity Date, there are any outstanding Letters of Credit, then on such date Borrower shall provide to Lender cash collateral in an amount equal to 105% of the Letter of Credit Balance to secure all of the Obligations (including estimated attorneys' fees and other expenses) relating to said Letters of Credit, pursuant to a cash pledge agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender.
 
1.8 Voluntary Termination of Loan Facilities.
 
 Borrower may, on at least thirty days prior written notice 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 an Early Termination Fee in the amount specified in Section (f) of the Fee Letter.  If, on the date of a voluntary termination pursuant to this Section 1.8, there are any outstanding Letters of Credit, then on such date, and as a condition precedent to such termination, Borrower shall provide to Lender cash collateral in an amount equal to 105% of the Letter of Credit Balance to secure all of the Obligations (including estimated attorneys' fees and other expenses) relating to said Letters of Credit, pursuant to a cash pledge agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender.  From and after such date of termination, Lender shall have no obligation whatsoever to extend any additional Loans or Letters of Credit.
 
1.9 Obligations Unconditional.
 
(a) The payment and performance of all Obligations shall constitute the absolute and unconditional obligations of each Loan Party Obligor, and shall be independent of any defense or rights of set-off, recoupment or counterclaim which any Loan Party Obligor 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 Indemnified Taxes or other amounts and without abatement, diminution or set-off.  If any Loan Party Obligor is required by applicable law to make such a deduction or withholding from a payment under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document, such Loan Party Obligor 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; provided, in the case of taxes, the foregoing shall apply only to Indemnified Taxes, as more particularly set forth in Section 9.  Each Loan Party Obligor 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 Xxxx-Xxxxx Xxxx 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 request or directive 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), 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, when 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; provided, in the case of Taxes, additional amounts shall be required to be paid solely with respect to Indemnified Taxes.  Each such notice of additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section 1.9(b) submitted by Lender to Borrower shall include reasonable detail of the computation of such amounts and shall, absent manifest error, be conclusive.
 
 
4
 
 
 
(c) Failure or delay on the part of Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of Lender’s right to demand such compensation, provided that Borrower shall not be required to compensate Lender pursuant to this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than six months prior to the date that Lender notifies Borrower of the events giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor.
 
(d) This Section 1.9 shall remain operative even after the Termination Date and shall survive the payment in full of all of the Loans.
 
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 even after the Termination Date and shall survive the payment in full of all of the Loans.
 
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 two and one half of one  percentage points (2.50%) 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.

 Loan and Security Agreement 
 
2.2 Fees. Borrower shall pay Lender the fees set forth in 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 discovered by Lender), unless Borrower notifies Lender in writing to the contrary within thirty days after such account is rendered, 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.
 
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 bear interest at the rate(s) in effect from time to time with respect to the Revolving Loans and 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.

LOAN GUARANTY.
 
8.1 Guaranty. Each Loan Party Obligor hereby agrees that it is jointly and severally liable for, and absolutely and unconditionally guarantees to Lender, the prompt payment 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 attorneys' and paralegals' fees (including allocated costs of in-house counsel and paralegals) 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, any Loan Party Obligor of all or any part of the Obligations (and such costs and expenses paid or incurred shall be deemed to be included in the Obligations). Each Loan Party Obligor further agrees that the Obligations may be extended or renewed in whole or in part without notice to or further assent from it, and that it remains bound upon its guarantee notwithstanding any such extension or renewal. All terms of this Loan Guaranty apply to and may be enforced by or on behalf of any branch or Affiliate of Lender that extended any portion of the Obligations.
 
8.2 Guaranty of Payment. This Loan Guaranty is a guaranty of payment and not of collection. Each Loan Party Obligor waives any right to require Lender to xxx or otherwise take action against Borrower, any other Loan Party Obligor 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.
 
8.3 No Discharge or Diminishment of Loan Guaranty.
 
(a) Except as otherwise expressly provided for herein, the obligations of each Loan Party Obligor hereunder are unconditional and absolute and not subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason (other than the indefeasible payment in full in cash of all of the applicable Obligations), including:  (i) any claim of waiver, release, extension, renewal, settlement, surrender, alteration, or compromise of any of the applicable Obligations, by operation of law or otherwise; (ii) any change in the corporate existence, structure or ownership of Borrower or any Obligor; (iii) any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or other similar proceeding affecting Borrower or any Obligor, or their assets or any resulting release or discharge of any obligation of Borrower or any Obligor; or (iv) the existence of any claim, setoff or other rights which any Loan Party Obligor may have at any time against Borrower, any Obligor, Lender, or any other Person, whether in connection herewith or in any unrelated transactions.
 
(b) The obligations of each Loan Party Obligor 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 Obligor, of the Obligations or any part thereof.
 
(c) Further, the obligations of any Loan Party Obligor hereunder are not discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by: (i) the failure of 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 Obligor; (iv) any action or failure to act by 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 Loan Party Obligor or that would otherwise operate as a discharge of any Loan Party Obligor as a matter of law or equity (other than the indefeasible payment in full in cash of all of the Obligations).
 
 
 
29
 
 
Loan and Security Agreement 
 
8.4 Defenses Waived. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Loan Party Obligor hereby waives any defense based on or arising out of any defense of any Loan Party Obligor 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 Loan Party Obligor, other than the indefeasible payment in full in cash of all of the Obligations. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Loan Party Obligor 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 Obligor, or any other Person.  Each Loan Party Obligor 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 Obligor or exercise any other right or remedy available to it against Borrower or any Obligor, without affecting or impairing in any way the liability of any Loan Party Obligor under this Loan Guaranty except to the extent the applicable Obligations have been fully and indefeasibly paid in cash.  To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Loan Party Obligor 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 Loan Party Obligor against Borrower or any Obligor or any security.
 
8.5 Rights of Subrogation. No Loan Party Obligor will assert any right, claim or cause of action, including, without limitation, a claim of subrogation, contribution or indemnification that it has against Borrower or any Obligor, or any Collateral, until the Termination Date.
 
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 Borrower or any other Person, or otherwise, each Loan Party Obligor'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 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 Borrower, all such amounts otherwise subject to acceleration under the terms of any agreement relating to the Obligations shall nonetheless be payable by the Loan Party Obligors forthwith on demand by Lender.  This Section 8.6 shall remain operative even after the Termination Date and shall survive the payment in full of all of the Loans.
 
8.7 Information. Each Loan Party Obligor assumes all responsibility for being and keeping itself informed of 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 Loan Party Obligor assumes and incurs under this Loan Guaranty, and agrees that Lender shall not have any duty to advise any Loan Party Obligor of information known to it regarding those circumstances or risks.
 
 
30
 
 
Loan and Security Agreement 
 
8.8 Termination. To the maximum extent permitted by law, each Loan Party Obligor hereby waives any right to revoke this Guaranty as to future Obligations.  If such a revocation is effective notwithstanding the foregoing waiver, each Loan Party Obligor 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, (d) no payment by Borrower, any other Loan Party Obligor, 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 Loan Party Obligor hereunder, and (e) any payment, by Borrower or from any source other than a Loan Party Obligor 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 Loan Party Obligor hereunder.
 
8.9 Maximum Liability. The provisions of this Loan Guaranty are severable, and in any action or proceeding involving any state or federal corporate law or other law governing business entities, or any state, federal or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other law affecting the rights of creditors generally, if the obligations of any Loan Party Obligor under this Loan Guaranty would otherwise be held or determined to be avoidable, invalid or unenforceable on account of the amount of such Loan Party Obligor'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 Loan Party Obligors or 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 Loan Party Obligor's "Maximum Liability").  This Section with respect to the Maximum Liability of each Loan Party Obligor is intended solely to preserve the rights of Lender to the maximum extent not subject to avoidance under applicable law, and no Loan Party Obligor 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 Loan Party Obligor hereunder shall not be rendered voidable under applicable law. Each Loan Party Obligor agrees that the Obligations may at any time and from time to time exceed the Maximum Liability of each Loan Party Obligor without impairing this Loan Guaranty or affecting the rights and remedies of Lender hereunder, provided that, nothing in this sentence shall be construed to increase any Loan Party Obligor's obligations hereunder beyond its Maximum Liability.
 
8.10 Contribution. In the event any Loan Party Obligor 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 Loan Party Obligor a "Paying Guarantor"), each other Loan Party Obligor (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 Borrower after the date hereof (whether by loan, capital infusion or by other means) to (ii) the aggregate Maximum Liability of all Loan Party Obligors 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 Loan Party Obligor, the aggregate amount of all monies received by such Loan Party Obligors from Borrower after the date hereof (whether by loan, capital infusion or by other means).  Nothing in this provision shall affect any Loan Party Obligor's several liability for the entire amount of the applicable Obligations (up to such Loan Party Obligor's Maximum Liability).  Each of the Loan Party Obligors 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 applicable Obligations.  This provision is for the benefit of Lender and the Loan Party Obligors and may be enforced by any one, or more, or all of them in accordance with the terms hereof.
 
 
31
 
 
Loan and Security Agreement 
 
8.11 Liability Cumulative. The liability of each Loan Party Obligor under this Section 8 is in addition to and shall be cumulative with all liabilities of each Loan Party Obligor to Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which such Loan Party Obligor is a party or in respect of any obligations or liabilities of the other Loan Parties, without any limitation as to amount, unless the instrument or agreement evidencing or creating such other liability specifically provides to the contrary.

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

(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).
 
(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.
