THIS LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT is entered into on the above date among ALLY BANK (“Ally”), whose address is 000 Xxxx Xxxxxx, 0xx Xxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx 00000, PACIFIC WESTERN BANK, a California state chartered bank (“PWB”), whose address is 000 Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxx 000, Xxxxxx, Xxxxx Xxxxxxxx 00000, and the borrower named above (the “Borrower”), whose chief executive office is located at the above address (“Borrower’s Address”). Ally and PWB are herein sometimes collectively referred to as “Lenders” and individually as a “Lender”. Ally, in its capacity as administrative and collateral Agent for the Lenders, is referred to herein as the “Agent” (which term shall include any successor Agent in accordance with terms hereof). The Schedule to this Agreement (the “Schedule”) shall for all purposes be deemed to be a part of this Agreement, and the same is an integral part of this Agreement. (Definitions of certain terms used in this Agreement are set forth in Section 8 below and in Exhibit A hereto.)

1. LOANS.

1.1 Loans. Lenders will make loans to Borrower (the “Loans”), in the amounts shown on the Schedule (the “Credit Limit”), subject to the provisions of this Agreement and subject to deduction of Reserves for accrued interest and such other Reserves as Agent deems proper from time to time in its Good Faith Business Judgment.

1.2 Interest. All Loans and all other monetary Obligations shall bear interest at the interest rate shown on the Schedule. Accrued interest shall be payable monthly, to Agent for the benefit of Lenders, on the last day of the month, and shall be charged to Borrower’s loan account (and the same shall thereafter bear interest at the same rate as the other Loans).

1.3 Overadvances. If at any time or for any reason the total of all outstanding Loans and all other monetary Obligations exceeds the Credit Limit (an “Overadvance”), Borrower shall immediately pay the amount of the excess to Agent, without notice or demand. Without limiting Borrower’s obligation to repay to Agent the amount of any Overadvance, Borrower agrees to pay Agent interest on the outstanding amount of any Overadvance, on demand, at the Default Rate.

1.4 Fees. Borrower shall pay Agent for the benefit of Lenders the fees shown on the Schedule, which are in addition to all interest and other sums payable to Agent and Lenders and are not refundable. Fees shall be allocated between the Lenders as they shall agree in writing from time to time.

1.5 Loan Requests. To obtain a Loan, Borrower shall make a request to Agent by submitting a Notice of Borrowing to Agent in the form of Exhibit B hereto or by making the request by telephone confirmed by a Notice of Borrowing on the same day. Loan requests received after 1:00 PM Eastern Time will be deemed made on the next Business Day. Agent and Lenders may rely on any Notice of Borrowing or telephone request for a Loan given by a person whom Agent believes is an authorized representative of Borrower, and Borrower will indemnify Agent and Lenders for any loss they suffer as a result of that reliance.

2. SECURITY INTEREST. To secure the payment and performance of all of the Obligations when due, Borrower hereby grants to Agent for the benefit of Agent and Lenders, a security interest in all of the following (collectively, the “Collateral”): all right, title and interest of Borrower in and to all of the following, whether now owned or hereafter arising or acquired and wherever located: all Accounts; all Inventory; all Equipment; all Deposit Accounts; all General Intangibles (including without limitation all Intellectual Property); all Investment Property; all Other Property; and any and all claims, rights and interests in any of the above, and all guaranties and security for any of the above, and all substitutions and replacements for, additions, accessions, attachments, accessories, and improvements to, and proceeds (including proceeds of any insurance policies, proceeds of proceeds and claims against third parties) of, any and all of the above, and all Borrower’s books relating to any and all of the above.

Loan and Security Agreement

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Collateral shall not include any of the following property (the “Excluded Property”):

(i) property which consists of a license of Intellectual Property to Borrower, pursuant to a license which is nonassignable by its terms without the consent of the licensor thereof (but only to the extent such prohibition on assignability is enforceable under applicable law, including, without limitation, Section 9408 of the Code), and as to any such licenses, Borrower represents and warrants that they are non-exclusive and replaceable on commercially reasonable terms;

(ii) property which consists of a lease of Equipment leased to Borrower pursuant to a capital lease which by its terms is non-assignable (but only to the extent such prohibition on assignability is enforceable under applicable law, including, without limitation, Sections 9407 of the Code);

(iii) Equipment as to which the granting of a security interest in it is prohibited by enforceable provisions of applicable law, provided that upon the cessation of any such prohibition, such Equipment shall automatically become part of the Collateral; or

(iv) property that is subject to a Lien that is permitted pursuant to clause (i) of the definition of Permitted Liens, if the grant of a security interest with respect to such property would be prohibited by the agreement creating such Permitted Lien or would otherwise constitute a default thereunder, but only to the extent such prohibition is enforceable under applicable law, and provided, that such property will be deemed “Collateral” hereunder upon the termination and release of such Permitted Lien; or

(v) property that consists of outstanding capital stock of any “controlled foreign corporation” (as that term is defined in the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended) in excess of 65% of the voting power of all classes of capital stock of such controlled foreign corporation entitled to vote;

provided, that any assets excluded from the Collateral in this paragraph shall not include any proceeds, products, substitutions or replacements of such Collateral (unless such proceeds, products, substitutions or replacements would otherwise constitute assets that are excluded from the Collateral pursuant to this definition).

Borrower represents and warrants to Lender that Excluded Property which is material to Borrower’s business or includes Intellectual Property which is licensed by the Borrower to its customers or incorporated in products licensed or sold by the Borrower to its customers is generally available on commercially reasonable terms.

3. REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS OF BORROWER.

In order to induce Agent and Lenders to enter into this Agreement and to make Loans, Borrower represents and warrants to Agent and Lenders as follows, and Borrower covenants that Borrower will at all times comply with all of the following covenants, throughout the term of this Agreement and until all Obligations (other than inchoate indemnification obligations) have been paid and performed in full:

3.1 Corporate Existence and Authority. Borrower is, and will continue to be, duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation or organization. Borrower is and will continue to be qualified and licensed to do business in all jurisdictions in which any failure to do so would reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Change. The execution, delivery and performance by Borrower of this Agreement, and all other documents contemplated hereby now are, and in the future will be (i) duly and validly authorized, (ii) not subject to any consents, which have not been obtained, (iii) enforceable against Borrower in accordance with their terms (except as enforcement may be limited by equitable principles and by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws relating to creditors’ rights generally), and (iv) not in violation of Borrower’s articles or certificate of incorporation, or Borrower’s by-laws, or any law or any material agreement or instrument, which is binding upon Borrower or its property, and (v) not grounds for acceleration of any indebtedness or obligations in excess of $500,000 in the aggregate, under any agreement or instrument which is binding upon Borrower or its property.

3.2 Name; Trade Names and Styles. As of the date hereof, the name of Borrower set forth in the heading to this Agreement is its correct name. Listed in the Representations are all prior names of Borrower and all of Borrower’s present and prior trade names, as of the date hereof. Borrower shall give Agent 30 days’ prior written notice before changing its name, and prompt written notice after starting to do business under any other name. Borrower has complied, and will in the future comply, in all material respects, with all laws relating to the conduct of business under a fictitious business name.

3.3 Place of Business; Location of Collateral. As of the date hereof, the address set forth in the heading to this Agreement is Borrower’s chief executive office. In addition, as of the date hereof, Borrower has places of business and Collateral is located only at the locations set forth in the Representations. Borrower will give Agent written notice within 30

Loan and Security Agreement

days of changing its chief executive office, or moving any of the Collateral to a location other than Borrower’s Address or one of the locations set forth in the Representations, except that Borrower may maintain sales offices in the ordinary course of business at which not more than a total of $250,000 fair market value of Equipment is located.

3.4 Title to Collateral; Perfection; Permitted Liens.

(a) Borrower is now, and will at all times in the future be, the sole owner of all the Collateral, except for items of Equipment which are leased to Borrower, and except for non-exclusive licenses granted by Borrower to its customers in the ordinary course of business. The Collateral now is and will remain free and clear of any and all Liens and adverse claims, except for Permitted Liens. Agent for the benefit of Lenders now has, and will continue to have, a first-priority perfected and enforceable security interest in all of the Collateral, subject only to Permitted Liens, and Borrower will at all times defend Agent and Lenders and the Collateral against all claims of others.

(b) Borrower has set forth in the Representations all of Borrower’s Deposit Accounts as of the date hereof, and Borrower will give Agent prompt written notice upon establishing any new Deposit Accounts and will cause the institution where any such new Deposit Account is maintained (if such new Deposit Account is maintained within the United States) to execute and deliver to Agent for the benefit of Lenders a control agreement in form sufficient to perfect Agent’s security interest in the Deposit Account for the benefit of Agent and Lenders and otherwise satisfactory to Agent in its Good Faith Business Judgment. Nothing herein limits any requirements which may be set forth in the Schedule as to where Deposit Accounts will be maintained.

(c) In the event that Borrower shall at any time after the date hereof have any commercial tort claims against others, which it is asserting or intends to assert, and in which the potential recovery exceeds $100,000, Borrower shall promptly notify Agent thereof in writing and provide Agent with such information regarding the same as Agent shall request. Such notification to Agent shall constitute a grant of a security interest in the commercial tort claim and all proceeds thereof to Agent for the benefit of Lenders, and Borrower shall execute and deliver all such documents and take all such actions as Agent shall request in connection therewith.

(d) Whenever any Collateral with a value in excess of $500,000 is located upon premises in which any third party has an interest, Borrower shall, whenever requested by Agent, use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such third party to execute and deliver to Agent, in form reasonably acceptable to Agent, such landlord agreements, waivers, subordinations and other agreements as Agent shall specify in its Good Faith Business Judgment. Borrower will keep in full force and effect, and will comply with all material terms of, any lease of real property where any of the Collateral now or in the future may be located.

(e) Except as disclosed in the Representations, Borrower is not a party to, nor is it bound by, any license or other agreement that is important for the conduct of Borrower’s business and that prohibits or otherwise restricts Borrower from granting a security interest in Borrower’s interest in such license or agreement or any other property important for the conduct of Borrower’s business.

(f) Borrower is the sole owner of the Intellectual Property, except for non-exclusive licenses granted by Borrower to its customers in the ordinary course of business. To the best of Borrower’s knowledge, each of the Copyrights, Trademarks and Patents is valid and enforceable, and no part of the Intellectual Property has been judged invalid or unenforceable, in whole or in part, and no claim has been made to Borrower that any part of the Intellectual Property violates the rights of any third party except to the extent such claim would not reasonably be expected to result in liability of the Borrower exceeding $500,000 or cause a Material Adverse Change.

3.5 Maintenance of Collateral. Borrower will maintain the Collateral in good working condition (ordinary wear and tear excepted), and Borrower will not use the Collateral for any unlawful purpose. Borrower will promptly advise Agent in writing of any loss or damage to Collateral in excess of $500,000.

3.6 Books and Records. Borrower has maintained and will maintain at Borrower’s Address books and records, which are complete and accurate in all material respects, and comprise an accounting system in accordance with GAAP.

3.7 Financial Condition, Statements and Reports. All financial statements now or in the future delivered to Agent or a Lender have been, and will be, prepared in conformity with GAAP, and now and in the future will fairly present the results of operations and financial condition of Borrower, in accordance with GAAP, at the times and for the periods therein stated (except for non-compliance with FAS 123R in monthly financial statements, and, in the case of interim financial statements, for the lack of footnotes and subject to year-end adjustments). Between the last date covered by any such statement provided to Agent and the date hereof, there has been no Material Adverse Change.

3.8 Tax Returns and Payments; Pension Contributions. Borrower has timely filed, and will timely file, all required tax returns and reports, and Borrower has timely paid, and will timely pay, all foreign, federal, state and local taxes, assessments, deposits and contributions now or in the future owed by Borrower, except for inadvertent failures to make payments not

Loan and Security Agreement

exceeding $250,000 which are promptly rectified when discovered. Borrower may, however, defer payment of any contested taxes, provided that Borrower (i) in good faith contests Borrower’s obligation to pay the taxes by appropriate proceedings promptly and diligently instituted and conducted, (ii) notifies Agent in writing of the commencement of, and any material development in, the proceedings, and (iii) posts bonds or takes any other steps required to keep the contested taxes from becoming a Lien upon any of the Collateral. Borrower is unaware of any claims or adjustments proposed for any of Borrower’s prior tax years which could result in additional taxes becoming due and payable by Borrower. Borrower has paid, and shall continue to pay all amounts necessary to fund all present and future pension, profit sharing and deferred compensation plans in accordance with their terms, and Borrower has not and will not withdraw from participation in, permit partial or complete termination of, or permit the occurrence of any other event with respect to, any such plan which could reasonably be expected to result in any liability of Borrower exceeding $250,000, including any liability to the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation or its successors or any other governmental agency.

3.9 Compliance with Law.

(a) Borrower has complied, and will in the future comply, in all material respects, with all provisions of all foreign, federal, state and local laws and regulations applicable to Borrower, including, but not limited to, those relating to Borrower’s ownership of real or personal property, the conduct and licensing of Borrower’s business, and all environmental matters. Borrower has obtained all consents, approvals and authorizations of, made all declarations or filings with, and given all notices to, all governmental authorities that are necessary for the continued operation of Borrower’s business as currently conducted, except where the failure to do so would not reasonably be expected to result in liability of the Borrower in excess of $500,000 or result in a Material Adverse Change.

(b) Borrower is not in violation and shall not violate any of the country or list based economic and trade sanctions administered and enforced by OFAC or as otherwise published from time to time. Neither Borrower, nor to the knowledge of Borrower, any director, officer, employee, agent, affiliate or representative thereof, (i) is a Sanctioned Person or a Sanctioned Entity, (ii) has its assets located in a Sanctioned Entity, (iii) derives revenues from investments in, or transactions with a Sanctioned Person or a Sanctioned Entity or (iv) is owned or controlled by a Sanctioned Entity or a Sanctioned Person.

(c) Borrower is in compliance with, and will continue to comply with, all applicable Anti-Terrorism Laws. No part of the proceeds of the Loans will be used, directly or indirectly, for any payments to any government official or employee, political party, official of a political party, candidate for political office, or anyone else acting in an official capacity, in order to obtain, retain or direct business or obtain any improper advantage, in violation of the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, as amended.

3.10 Litigation. As of the date hereof, there is no claim, suit, litigation, proceeding or investigation pending or, to Borrower’s knowledge, threatened against or affecting Borrower in any court or before any governmental agency (or any basis therefor known to Borrower) involving any claim against Borrower of more than $500,000. Borrower will promptly inform Agent in writing of any claim, proceeding, litigation or investigation in the future threatened or instituted against Borrower involving any claim against Borrower of more than $500,000.

3.11 Use of Proceeds. All proceeds of all Loans shall be used solely for Borrower’s working capital. Borrower is not purchasing or carrying any “margin stock” (as defined in Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System) and no part of the proceeds of any Loan will be used to purchase or carry any “margin stock” or to extend credit to others for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any “margin stock.”

3.12 Solvency, Payment of Debts. Borrower is able to pay its debts (including trade debts) as they mature; the fair saleable value of Borrower’s assets exceeds the fair value of its liabilities; and Borrower is not left with unreasonably small capital after the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

3.13 Broker’s Fees. Borrower does not have any obligation to any Person in respect of any finder’s, broker’s, investment banking or similar fee in connection with any of the transactions contemplated under the Loan Documents (other than fees that will have been paid on or prior to the date hereof).

4. ACCOUNTS.

4.1 Representations Relating to Accounts. Borrower represents and warrants to Agent and Lenders as follows: Each Account with respect to which Loans are requested by Borrower shall, on the date each Loan is requested and made, (i) represent an undisputed bona fide existing unconditional obligation of the Account Debtor created by the sale, delivery, and acceptance of goods or the rendition of services, or the non-exclusive licensing of Intellectual Property, in the ordinary course of Borrower’s business, and (ii) meet the Minimum Eligibility Requirements set forth in Section 8 below.

4.3 Schedules and Documents relating to Accounts. If requested by Agent, Borrower shall furnish Agent with copies (or, at Agent’s request, originals) of all contracts, orders, invoices, and other similar documents, and Borrower warrants the genuineness of all of the foregoing. In addition, Borrower shall deliver to Agent, on its request, the originals of all instruments, chattel paper, security agreements, guarantees and other documents and property evidencing or securing any Accounts, in the same form as received, with all necessary endorsements, and copies of all credit memos.

4.4 Cash Collateral Account.

(a) Within 90 days after the date hereof, Borrower shall establish (i) a post office box, as designated by Agent (the “Lockbox”), over which Agent shall have exclusive and unrestricted access; and (ii) a cash collateral account at PWB in Borrower’s name (the “Cash Collateral Account”), over which PWB and Agent shall have exclusive and unrestricted access. Commencing within 90 days after the date hereof and continuing at all times thereafter, Borrower shall immediately deposit any funds received by Borrower from any source (including without limitation all proceeds of Accounts and all other Collateral) into the Cash Collateral Account, and Borrower shall direct all of its Account Debtors (i) to make any wire or other electronic transfer of funds owing to Borrower directly to the Cash Collateral Account, and (ii) to mail or deliver all checks or other forms of payment for amounts owing to Borrower to the Lockbox. Except for funds deposited into the Cash Collateral Account, all funds received by Borrower from any source shall immediately be directed to the Lockbox. Agent shall collect the mail delivered to the Lockbox, open such mail, and endorse and deposit all items to the Cash Collateral Account.

(b) All funds flowing through the Lockbox shall automatically be transferred to the Cash Collateral Account. Borrower shall hold in trust for Lender all amounts that Borrower receives from Account Debtors despite the directions to make payments to the Cash Collateral Account, and immediately deliver such payments to PWB in their original form as received from the payor, with proper endorsements for deposit into the Cash Collateral Account. Borrower irrevocably authorizes Agent and Lenders to transfer to the Cash Collateral Account any funds from Account Debtors that have been deposited into any other accounts of Borrower or that Borrower has received by wire transfer, check, cash, or otherwise. Agent for the benefit of Lenders shall have all right, title and interest in all of the items from time to time held in the Cash Collateral Account and their proceeds. Neither Borrower nor any person claiming through Borrower shall have any right or control over the use of, or any right to withdraw any amount from, the Cash Collateral Account, which shall be under the sole control of Agent for the benefit of Lenders.

(c) Agent and PWB shall transfer all sums collected in the Cash Collateral Account into Borrower’s operating account maintained with PWB, promptly after receipt of such sums in immediately available funds, provided that if a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Agent shall have the right to apply amounts held in the Cash Collateral Account to the outstanding balance of the Obligations on a daily basis.

4.5 Disputes. Borrower shall not forgive (completely or partially), compromise or settle any Account for less than payment in full, or agree to do any of the foregoing, except that Borrower may do so, provided that: (i) Borrower does so in good faith, in a commercially reasonable manner, in the ordinary course of business, and in arm’s length transactions, which are reported to Agent on the regular reports provided to Agent; (ii) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; and (iii) taking into account all such discounts, settlements and forgiveness, the total outstanding Loans will not exceed the Credit Limit.

4.6 Verification. Agent may, from time to time after the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, verify directly with the respective Account Debtors the validity, amount and other matters relating to the Accounts, by means of mail, telephone or otherwise, either in the name of Borrower or Agent or such other name as Agent may choose, and Agent or its designee may, at any time after the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, notify Account Debtors that it has a security interest in the Accounts.

4.7 No Liability. Neither Agent nor Lenders shall be responsible or liable for any error, act, omission, or delay of any kind occurring in the settlement, failure to settle, collection or failure to collect any Account, or for settling any Account in good faith for less than the full amount thereof, nor shall Agent or Lenders be deemed to be responsible for any of Borrower’s obligations under any contract or agreement giving rise to an Account. Nothing in this Section 4.9 shall, however, relieve Agent or a Lender from liability for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct.

Loan and Security Agreement

Agent may require reasonable assurance that the insurance proceeds so released will be so used.

A Lender may cease making any Loans hereunder during any of the above cure periods, and thereafter if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

7.2 Remedies. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, and at any time thereafter, Agent may, and shall upon the request of Required Lenders, at their at its option, and without notice or demand of any kind (all of which are hereby expressly waived by Borrower), may do any one or more of the following: (a) Cease making Loans or otherwise extending credit to Borrower under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; (b) Accelerate and declare all or any part of the Obligations to be immediately due, payable, and performable, notwithstanding any deferred or installment payments allowed by any instrument evidencing or relating to any Obligation; provided, however, that upon the occurrence and continuance of any Event of Default described in Section 7.1(l), 7.1(m) or Section 7.1(s), the obligation of Lenders to make Loans shall automatically terminate and the Obligations shall automatically become due and payable; (c) Take possession of any or all of the Collateral wherever it may be found, and for that purpose Borrower hereby authorizes Agent without judicial process to enter onto any of Borrower’s premises without interference to search for, take possession of, keep, store, or remove any of the Collateral, and remain on the premises or cause a custodian to remain on the premises in exclusive control thereof, without charge for so long as Agent deems it necessary, in its Good Faith Business Judgment, in order to complete the enforcement of its rights under this Agreement or any other agreement; provided, however, that should Agent seek to take possession of any of the Collateral by court process, Borrower hereby irrevocably waives: (i) any bond and any surety or security relating thereto required by any statute, court rule or otherwise as an incident to such possession; (ii) any demand for possession prior to the commencement of any suit or action to recover possession thereof; and (iii) any requirement that Agent retain possession of, and not dispose of, any such Collateral until after trial or final judgment; (d) Require Borrower to assemble any or all of the Collateral and make it available to Agent at places designated by Agent which are reasonably convenient to Agent and Borrower, and to remove the Collateral to such locations as Agent may deem advisable; (e) Complete the processing, manufacturing or repair of any Collateral prior to a disposition thereof and, for such purpose and for the purpose of removal, Agent shall have the right to use Borrower’s premises, vehicles, hoists, lifts, cranes, and other Equipment and all other property without charge; (f) Sell, lease or otherwise dispose of any of the Collateral, in its condition at the time Agent obtains possession of it or after further manufacturing, processing or repair, at one or more public and/or private sales, in lots or in bulk, for cash, exchange or other property, or on credit, and to adjourn any such sale from time to time without notice other than oral announcement at the time scheduled for sale. Agent shall have the right to conduct such disposition on Borrower’s premises without charge, for such time or times as Agent deems reasonable, or on Agent’s premises, or elsewhere and the Collateral need not be located at the place of disposition. Agent (or any entity formed by Agent, at the direction of the Required Lenders, for this purpose) may directly or through any Affiliate purchase or lease

Loan and Security Agreement

any Collateral at any such public disposition, and if permissible under applicable law, at any private disposition. Any sale or other disposition of Collateral shall not relieve Borrower of any liability Borrower may have if any Collateral is defective as to title or physical condition or otherwise at the time of sale; (g) demand payment of, and collect any Accounts and General Intangibles comprising Collateral and, in connection therewith, Borrower irrevocably authorizes Agent to endorse or sign Borrower’s name on all collections, receipts, instruments and other documents, to take possession of and open mail addressed to Borrower and remove therefrom payments made with respect to any item of the Collateral or proceeds thereof, and, in Agent’s Good Faith Business Judgment, to grant extensions of time to pay, compromise claims and settle Accounts and the like for less than face value; (h) demand and receive possession of any of Borrower’s federal and state income tax returns and the books and records utilized in the preparation thereof or referring thereto; and (i) set off any of the Obligations against any general, special or other Deposit Accounts of Borrower maintained with Agent or any Lender. All reasonable attorneys’ fees, expenses, costs, liabilities and obligations incurred by Agent and Lenders with respect to the foregoing shall be added to and become part of the Obligations, shall be due on demand, and shall bear interest at a rate equal to the highest interest rate applicable to any of the Obligations. Without limiting any of Agent’s or any Lender’s rights and remedies, from and after the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, the interest rate applicable to the Obligations shall be increased by an additional three percent per annum (the “Default Rate”).

7.3 Standards for Determining Commercial Reasonableness. Borrower, Agent and Lenders agree that a sale or other disposition (collectively, “Sale”) of any Collateral which complies with the following standards will conclusively be deemed to be commercially reasonable: (i) notice of the Sale is given to Borrower at least ten days prior to the Sale, and, in the case of a public Sale, notice of the Sale is published at least five days before the date of the Sale in a newspaper of general circulation in the county where the Sale is to be conducted; (ii) notice of the Sale describes the Collateral in general, non-specific terms; (iii) the Sale is conducted at a place designated by Agent, with or without the Collateral being present; (iv) the Sale commences at any time between 8:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m.; (v) payment of the purchase price in cash or by cashier’s check or wire transfer is required; (vi) with respect to any Sale of any of the Collateral, Agent may (but is not obligated to) direct any prospective purchaser to ascertain directly from Borrower any and all information concerning the same. Agent shall be free to employ other methods of noticing and selling the Collateral, in its discretion, if they are commercially reasonable.

7.4 Investment Property. If a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrower shall hold all payments on, and proceeds of, and distributions with respect to, Investment Property in trust for Agent for the benefit of Lenders, and Borrower shall deliver all such payments, proceeds and distributions to Agent for the benefit of Lenders, immediately upon receipt, in their original form, duly endorsed, to be applied to the Obligations in such order as Agent shall determine. Borrower recognizes that Agent may be unable to make a public sale of any or all of the Investment Property, by reason of prohibitions contained in applicable securities laws or otherwise, and expressly agrees that a private sale to a restricted group of purchasers for investment and not with a view to any distribution thereof shall be considered a commercially reasonable sale thereof.

7.5 Power of Attorney. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, without limiting Agent’s or any Lender’s other rights and remedies, Borrower grants to Agent an irrevocable power of attorney coupled with an interest, authorizing and permitting Agent (acting through any of its employees, attorneys or agents) at any time, at its option, but without obligation, with or without notice to Borrower, and at Borrower’s expense, to do any or all of the following, in Borrower’s name or otherwise, but Agent agrees that if it exercises any right hereunder, it will do so in good faith and in a commercially reasonable manner: (a) execute on behalf of Borrower any documents that Agent may, in its Good Faith Business Judgment, deem advisable in order to perfect and maintain Agent’s and Lenders’ security interest in the Collateral, or in order to exercise a right of Borrower, Agent or any Lender, or in order to fully consummate all the transactions contemplated under this Agreement, and all other Loan Documents; (b) execute on behalf of Borrower, any invoices relating to any Account, any draft against any Account Debtor and any notice to any Account Debtor, any proof of claim in bankruptcy, any Notice of Lien, claim of mechanic’s, materialman’s or other Lien, or assignment or satisfaction of mechanic’s, materialman’s or other Lien; (c) take control in any manner of any cash or non-cash items of payment or proceeds of Collateral; endorse the name of Borrower upon any instruments, or documents, evidence of payment or Collateral that may come into Agent’s or any Lender’s possession; (d) endorse all checks and other forms of remittances received by Agent or any Lender; (e) pay, contest or settle any Lien and adverse claim in or to any of the Collateral, or any judgment based thereon, or otherwise take any action to terminate or discharge the same; (f) grant extensions of time to pay, compromise claims and settle Accounts and General Intangibles for less than face value and execute all releases and other documents in connection therewith; (g) pay any sums required on account of Borrower’s taxes or to secure the release of any Liens therefor, or both; (h) settle and adjust, and give releases of, any insurance claim that relates to any of the Collateral and obtain payment therefor; (i) instruct any third party having custody or control of any books or records belonging to, or relating to, Borrower to give Agent the same rights of access and other rights with respect thereto as Agent has under this Agreement; and (j) take any action or pay any sum required of Borrower pursuant to this Agreement and any other Loan Documents; (k) enter into a short-form intellectual property security agreement consistent with the terms of this Agreement

Loan and Security Agreement

for recording purposes only or modify, in its sole discretion, any intellectual property security agreement entered into between Borrower and Agent without first obtaining Borrower’s approval of or signature to such modification by amending exhibits thereto, as appropriate, to include reference to any right, title or interest in any Copyrights, Patents or Trademarks acquired by Borrower after the execution hereof or to delete any reference to any right, title or interest in any Copyrights, Patents or Trademarks in which Borrower no longer has or claims to have any right, title or interest; and (l) file, in its sole discretion, one or more financing or continuation statements and amendments thereto, relative to any of the Collateral; provided Agent may exercise such power of attorney to sign the name of Borrower on any of the documents described in clauses (k) and (l) above, regardless of whether an Event of Default has occurred. Any and all reasonable sums paid and any and all reasonable costs, expenses, liabilities, obligations and attorneys’ fees incurred by Agent or any Lender with respect to the foregoing shall be added to and become part of the Obligations, shall be payable on demand, and shall bear interest at a rate equal to the highest interest rate applicable to any of the Obligations. In no event shall Agent’s or any Lender’s rights under the foregoing power of attorney or any of Agent’s or any Lender’s other rights under this Agreement be deemed to indicate that Agent or any Lender is in control of the business, management or properties of Borrower.

7.6 Application of Proceeds. All proceeds realized as the result of any Sale of the Collateral shall be applied by Agent first to the reasonable costs, expenses, liabilities, obligations and attorneys’ fees incurred by Agent and Lenders in the exercise of its rights under this Agreement, second to the interest due upon any of the Obligations pro rata based upon the Lenders’ respective Pro Rata Shares of the Obligations, and third to the principal of the Obligations, pro rata based upon the Lenders’ respective Pro Rata Shares of the Obligations; provided that proceeds of any separate Deposit Account maintained to secure any Bank Services Indebtedness (up to the limits set forth in clause (vii) of the definition of “Permitted Indebtedness”) shall be applied to such Bank Services Indebtedness. Any surplus shall be paid to Borrower or other persons legally entitled thereto; Borrower shall remain liable to Agent and Lenders for any deficiency. If, Agent, in its Good Faith Business Judgment, directly or indirectly enters into a deferred payment or other credit transaction with any purchaser at any Sale of Collateral, Agent shall have the option, exercisable at any time, in its Good Faith Business Judgment, of either reducing the Obligations by the principal amount of purchase price or deferring the reduction of the Obligations until the actual receipt by Agent of the cash therefor.

7.7 Remedies Cumulative. In addition to the rights and remedies set forth in this Agreement, Agent and Lenders shall have all the other rights and remedies accorded a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code and under all other applicable laws, and under any other instrument or agreement now or in the future entered into between Agent and any Lender and Borrower, and all of such rights and remedies are cumulative and none is exclusive. Exercise or partial exercise by Agent or any Lender of one or more of its rights or remedies shall not be deemed an election, nor bar Agent or any Lender from subsequent exercise or partial exercise of any other rights or remedies. The failure or delay of Agent or any Lender to exercise any rights or remedies shall not operate as a waiver thereof, but all rights and remedies shall continue in full force and effect until all of the Obligations have been fully paid and performed.

Exhibit A—p. 2

8A.3 Settlements. Payments

(A) Loans and Payments.

(1) Fluctuation of Loan Balance. The Loan balance may fluctuate from day to day through Agent’s disbursement of funds to, and receipt of funds from, Borrower. In order to minimize the frequency of transfers of funds between Agent and each Lender, subject to Agent’s options set forth in Sections 8A.2 and 8A.4, Loans and repayments will be settled according to the procedures described in this Section 8A.3. Notwithstanding these procedures, each Lender’s obligation to fund its portion of any advances made by Agent to Borrower will commence on the date such advances are made by Agent. Such payments will be made by such Lender without set off, counterclaim or reduction of any kind.

(2) Settlement Dates. Once each week or more frequently (including daily), if Agent so elects (each such day being a “Settlement Date”), Agent will advise each Lender by telephone, fax or telecopy of the amount of each such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Loans outstanding. In the event payments are necessary to adjust the amount of such Lender’s required Pro Rata Share of the Loan balance to such Lender’s actual Pro Rata Share of the Loan balance as of any Settlement Date, the party from which such payment is due will pay the other, in same day funds, by wire transfer to the other’s account not later than 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Business Day following the Settlement Date.

(3) Settlement Payments. On the first Business Day of each month (“Interest Settlement Date”), Agent will advise each Lender by telephone, fax or telecopy of the amount of such Lender’s share of interest and fees on the Loans as of the end of the last day of the immediately preceding month. Provided that such Lender has made all payments required to be made by it under this Agreement, Agent will pay to such Lender, by wire transfer to such Lender’s account (as specified by such Lender in writing to Agent) not later than 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the next Business Day following the Interest Settlement Date, such Lender’s share of interest and fees on the Loans. Such Lender’s share of interest on the Loans will be calculated by adding together the Daily Interest Amounts for each calendar day of the prior month for the Loan and multiplying the total thereof by the Interest Ratio for the Loan. Such Lender’s share of the Unused Line Fee payable under Section 3 of the Schedule for a month shall be an amount equal to (a)(i) such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Maximum Credit Limit during such month, less (ii) such Lender’s average Daily Loan Balance of the Loans for such month, multiplied by (b) the percentage specified regarding the Unused Line Fee in Section 3 of the Schedule. Such Lender’s share of all other fees paid to Agent for the benefit of Lenders hereunder shall be paid and calculated based on such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Total Credit Exposure, except that the Loan Fee payable under Section 3 of the Schedule shall be allocated $400,000 to Ally and $100,000 to PWB. To the extent Agent does not receive the total amount of any fee owing by Borrowers under this Agreement, each amount payable by Agent to a Lender under this Section 8A.3(A)(3) with respect to such fee shall be reduced on a pro rata basis based on their Pro Rata Share. Any funds disbursed or received by Agent pursuant to this Agreement, including, without limitation, under Sections 8A.2, 8A.3(A)(1), and 8A.4, prior to the Settlement Date for such disbursement or payment shall be deemed advances or remittances by Ally, in its capacity as a Lender, for purposes of calculating interest and fees pursuant to this Section 8A.3(A)(3).

Exhibit A—p. 3

(B) Return of Payments.

(1) Recovery after Non-Receipt of Expected Payment. If Agent pays an amount to a Lender under this Agreement in the belief or expectation that a related payment has been or will be received by Agent from Borrower and such related payment is not received by Agent, then Agent will be entitled to recover such amount from such Lender without set-off, counterclaim or deduction of any kind together with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available by Agent to such Lender to but excluding the date of repayment to Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.

(2) Recovery of Returned Payment. If Agent determines at any time that any amount received by Agent under this Agreement must be returned to Borrower or paid to any other Person pursuant to any requirement of law, court order or otherwise, then, notwithstanding any other term or condition of this Agreement, Agent will not be required to distribute any portion thereof to any Lender. In addition, each Lender will repay to Agent on demand any portion of such amount that Agent has distributed to such Lender, together with interest at such rate, if any, as Agent is required to pay to Borrower or such other Person, without set-off, counterclaim or deduction of any kind.

(C) Payments Pro Rata. Agent agrees that promptly after its receipt of each payment from or on behalf of Borrower in respect of any Obligations of such Borrower, it shall, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, distribute such payment to the Lenders pro rata based upon their respective Pro Rata Shares, if any, of the Obligations with respect to which such payment was received.

8A.4 Discretionary Advances. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, at any time after and during the continuance of a Default or Event of Default, Agent may, with the consent of the Required Lenders, for a period of not more than sixty (60) consecutive days make Loans in an aggregate amount of not more than $2,500,000 (but not in excess of the Maximum Credit Limit) for the purpose of preserving or protecting the Collateral or for incurring any costs associated with collection or enforcing rights or remedies against the Collateral, or incurred in any action to enforce this Agreement or any other Loan Document. Required Lenders may at any time revoke Agent’s authorization to make further Loans under this Section 8A.4 by written notice to Agent.

Upon Agent’s making of any Loans under this Section 8A.4, each of the Lenders shall be deemed to have irrevocably, unconditionally and immediately purchased from Agent a participation in such Loans in an amount equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share multiplied by the total amount of such Loans outstanding under this Section 8A.4. Each Lender shall effect such purchase by making available the amount of such Lender’s participation in such Loans in U.S. Dollars in immediately available funds to Agent’s Account. In the event any Lender fails to make available to Agent when due the amount of such Lender’s participation in such Loans, Agent shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Lender together with interest at the Federal Funds Effective Rate. Each such purchase by a Lender shall be made without recourse to Agent, without representation or warranty of any kind, and shall be effected and evidenced pursuant to documents reasonably acceptable to Agent. The obligations of the

Exhibit A—p. 4

Lenders under this Section 8A.4 shall be absolute, irrevocable and unconditional, shall be made under all circumstances and shall not be affected, reduced or impaired for any reason whatsoever.

8A.5 Agent.

(A) Appointment. Each Lender hereto and, upon obtaining an interest in any Loan, any participant, transferee or other assignee of any Lender irrevocably appoints, designates and authorizes Ally as Agent to take such actions or refrain from taking such action as its agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers hereunder and under the other Loan Documents as are delegated by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Neither Agent nor any of its directors, officers, employees or agents shall be liable for any action so taken. The provisions of this Section 8A.5 are solely for the benefit of Agent and Lenders; Borrower shall not have any rights as a third party beneficiary of any of the provisions hereof. In performing its functions and duties under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, Agent shall act solely as agent of Lenders and does not assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation toward or relationship of agency or trust with or for Borrower. Agent may perform any of its duties hereunder, or under the Loan Documents, by or through its agents or employees.

(B) Nature of Duties. Agent shall have no duties, obligations or responsibilities except those expressly set forth in this Agreement or in the Loan Documents. The duties of Agent shall be mechanical and administrative in nature. Agent shall not have, by reason of this Agreement, a fiduciary, trust or agency relationship with, or in respect of, any Lender or Borrower. Nothing in this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents, express or implied, is intended to, or shall be construed to, impose upon Agent any obligations in respect of this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents, except as expressly set forth herein or therein. Each Lender shall make its own appraisal of the credit worthiness of Borrower, and shall have independently taken whatever steps it considers necessary to evaluate the financial condition and affairs of Borrower, and Agent shall have no duty or responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis, to provide any Lender with any credit or other information with respect thereto (other than as expressly required herein), whether coming into its possession before the date hereof or at any time or times thereafter. If Agent seeks the consent or approval of any Lenders to the taking or refraining from taking any action hereunder, then Agent shall send notice thereof to each Lender. Agent shall promptly notify each Lender any time that the Required Lenders have instructed Agent to act or refrain from acting pursuant hereto.

(C) Rights, Exculpation, Etc. Neither Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees or agents shall be liable to any Lender for any action taken or omitted by them hereunder or under any of the Loan Documents, or in connection herewith or therewith, except that Agent shall be liable to the extent of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment. Agent shall not be liable for any apportionment or distribution of payments made by it in good faith and if any such apportionment or distribution is subsequently determined to have been made in error, the sole recourse of any Lender to whom payment was due but not made, shall be to recover from other Lenders any payment in excess of the amount to which they are determined to be entitled (and such other Lenders hereby agree to return to such Lender any such erroneous

Exhibit A—p. 5

payments received by them). Neither Agent nor any of its agents or representatives shall be responsible to any Lender for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties herein or for the execution, effectiveness, genuineness, validity, enforceability, collectibility, or sufficiency of this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated thereby, or for the financial condition of any Borrower. Agent shall not be required to make any inquiry concerning either the performance or observance of any of the terms, provisions or conditions of this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents or the financial condition of any Borrower, or the existence or possible existence of any Default or Event of Default. Agent may at any time request instructions from Lenders with respect to any actions or approvals which by the terms of this Agreement or of any of the Loan Documents Agent is permitted or required to take or to grant, and if such instructions are promptly requested, Agent shall be absolutely entitled to refrain from taking any action or to withhold any approval and shall not be under any liability whatsoever to any Person for refraining from any action or withholding any approval under any of the Loan Documents until it shall have received such instructions from Required Lenders or all or such other portion of the Lenders as shall be prescribed by this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, no Lender shall have any right of action whatsoever against Agent as a result of Agent acting or refraining from acting under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents in accordance with the instructions of Required Lenders in the absence of an express requirement for a greater percentage of Lender approval hereunder for such action.

(D) Reliance. Agent shall be under no duty to examine, inquire into, or pass upon the validity, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any instrument, document or communication furnished pursuant hereto or in connection herewith. Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any written or oral notices, statements, certificates, orders or other documents or any telephone message or other communication (including any writing, fax, email, telecopy or telegram) believed by it in good faith to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person, and with respect to all matters pertaining to this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents and its duties hereunder or thereunder. Agent shall be entitled to rely upon the advice of legal counsel, independent accountants, and other experts selected by Agent in its sole discretion.

(E) Indemnification. Lenders will reimburse and indemnify Agent for and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and expenses), advances or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents or any action taken or omitted by Agent under this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents, in proportion to each Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Total Credit Exposure, but only to the extent that any of the foregoing is not promptly reimbursed by Borrower; provided, however, no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses, advances or disbursements resulting from Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction. If any indemnity furnished to Agent for any purpose shall, in the opinion of Agent, be insufficient or become impaired, Agent may call for additional indemnity and cease, or not commence, to do the acts indemnified against, even if so directed by Lenders or Required Lenders, until such additional indemnity is furnished.

Exhibit A—p. 6

The obligations of Lenders under this Section 8A.5(E) shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

(F) Ally Individually. With respect to its Commitments and the Loans made by it, Ally shall have and may exercise the same rights and powers hereunder and is subject to the same obligations and liabilities as and to the extent set forth herein for any other Lender. The terms “Lenders” or “Required Lenders” or any similar terms shall, unless the context clearly otherwise indicates, include Ally in its individual capacity as a Lender or one of the Required Lenders. Ally, either directly or through strategic affiliations, may lend money to, acquire equity or other ownership interests in, provide advisory services to, and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust or other business with, any Borrower as if it were not acting as Agent pursuant hereto and without any duty to account therefor to Lenders. Ally, either directly or through strategic affiliations, may accept fees and other consideration from any Borrower for services in connection with this Agreement or otherwise without having to account for the same to Lenders.

(G) Successor Agent.

(1) Resignation. Agent may resign from the performance of all of its agency functions and duties hereunder at any time by giving at least thirty (30) Business Days’ prior written notice to Borrower and the Lenders. Such resignation shall take effect upon the acceptance by a successor Agent of appointment as provided below.

(2) Appointment of Successor. Upon any such notice of resignation pursuant to Section 8A.5(G)(1) above, Required Lenders shall appoint a successor Agent which, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, shall be reasonably acceptable to Borrower. If a successor Agent shall not have been so appointed within said thirty (30) Business Day period, the retiring Agent, upon notice to Borrower, shall then appoint a successor Agent who shall serve as Agent until such time, if any, as Required Lenders appoint a successor Agent as provided above.

(3) Successor Agent. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Agent under the Loan Documents by a successor Agent, such successor Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Loan Documents. After any retiring Agent’s resignation as Agent, the provisions of this Section 8A shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Agent.

(H) Collateral Matters.

(1) Release of Collateral. Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize Agent, at its option and in its discretion, to release any Lien granted to or held by Agent upon any Collateral (a) upon termination of the Commitments and upon payment and satisfaction of all Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations to the extent no claims giving rise thereto have been asserted); (b) constituting property being sold or disposed of, if a Borrower certifies to Agent that the sale or disposition is made in compliance with the provisions of this Agreement (and Agent may rely in good faith conclusively on any such certificate, without further inquiry), or (c) constituting property being sold or disposed with the consent of the Required Lenders.

Exhibit A—p. 7

(2) Confirmation of Authority; Execution of Releases. Without in any manner limiting Agent’s authority to act without any specific or further authorization or consent by Lenders (as set forth in Section 8A.5(H)(1) above), each Lender agrees to confirm in writing, upon request by Agent or any Borrower, the authority to release any Collateral conferred upon Agent under clauses (a) (b) or (c) of Section 8A.5(H)(1). To the extent Agent agrees to release any Lien granted to or held by Agent as authorized under Section 8A.5(H)(1), (a) Agent is hereby irrevocably authorized by Lenders to, execute such documents as may be necessary to evidence the release of the Liens granted to Agent, for the benefit of Agent and the Lenders, upon such Collateral; provided, however, that Agent shall not be required to execute any such document on terms which, in Agent’s opinion, would expose Agent to liability or create upon Agent any obligation or entail any consequence other than the release of such Liens without recourse or warranty, and (b) Borrower shall have provided at least ten (10) Business Days prior written notice of any request for any document evidencing such release of the Liens and Borrower agrees that any such release shall not in any manner discharge, affect or impair the Obligations or any Liens granted to Agent on behalf of Agent and Lenders upon (or obligations of any Borrower, in respect of) all interests retained by any Borrower, including, without limitation, the proceeds of any sale, all of which shall continue to constitute part of the property covered by this Agreement or the Loan Documents.

(3) Absence of Duty. Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to any Lender or any other Person to assure that the property covered by this Agreement or the Loan Documents exists or is owned by any Borrower or is cared for, protected or insured or has been encumbered or that the Liens granted to Agent on behalf of Agent and Lenders herein or pursuant hereto have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected or enforced or are entitled to any particular priority, or to exercise at all or in any particular manner or under any duty of care, disclosure or fidelity, or to continue exercising, any of the rights, authorities and powers granted or available to Agent in this Agreement or in any of the Loan Documents, it being understood and agreed that in respect of the property covered by this Agreement or the Loan Documents or any act, omission or event related thereto, Agent may act in any manner it may deem appropriate, in its discretion, given Agent’s own interest in property covered by this Agreement or the Loan Documents as one of the Lenders, and that Agent shall have no duty or liability whatsoever to any of the other Lenders; provided, however, that Agent shall exercise the same care which it would in dealing with loans for its own account.

(I) Agency for Perfection. Agent and each Lender hereby appoint each other Lender as agent for the purpose of perfecting Agent’s security interest in assets which, in accordance with the Uniform Commercial Code in any applicable jurisdiction, can be perfected by possession or Control (as defined in the Code). Should any Lender (other than Agent) obtain possession of any such assets, such Lender shall notify Agent thereof, and, promptly upon Agent’s request therefor, shall deliver such assets to Agent or in accordance with Agent’s instructions. Agent may file such proofs of claim or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of Agent and the Lenders (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of Agent and the Lenders, their respective agents, financial advisors and counsel), allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to any Borrower and/or their Subsidiaries, or any of their respective creditors or property, and shall be entitled and empowered to collect, receive and distribute any monies, securities or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims. Any custodian in any judicial proceedings relative to

Exhibit A—p. 8

any Borrower and/or its Subsidiaries is hereby authorized by each Lender to make payments to Agent and, in the event that Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, to pay to Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of Agent, its agents, financial advisors and counsel, and any other amounts due Agent. Nothing contained in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall be deemed to authorize Agent to authorize or consent to, or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Loans, or the rights of any holder thereof, or to authorize Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender in any such proceeding, except as specifically permitted herein.

(J) Exercise of Remedies. Each Lender agrees that it will not have any right individually to enforce or seek to enforce this Agreement or any Loan Document or to realize upon any collateral security for the Obligations, unless instructed to do so by Agent, it being understood and agreed that such rights and remedies may be exercised only by Agent; provided that notwithstanding anything in this Section 8A.5 or any other provisions of this Agreement to the contrary, PWB shall have the sole right to enforce its security interest in separate, segregated Deposit Accounts specifically pledged to PWB to secure Bank Services Indebtedness and to apply the proceeds thereof to such Bank Services Indebtedness (up to the limit on Bank Services Indebtedness set forth in clause (vii) of the definition of “Permitted Indebtedness”). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, none of Lenders may exercise any right that it might otherwise have under applicable law to credit bid at foreclosure sales, Uniform Commercial Code sales or other similar sales or dispositions of any of the Collateral except as authorized by the Required Lenders.

8A.6 Notice of Default. Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default except with respect to defaults in the payment of principal, interest and fees required to be paid to Agent for the account of Lenders, unless Agent shall have received written notice from a Lender or Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default”. Agent will notify each Lender of its receipt of any such notice.

8A.7 Action by Agent. Agent shall take such action with respect to any Default or Event of Default as may be requested by Required Lenders in accordance with Section 7 of this Loan Agreement. Unless and until Agent has received any such request, Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to any Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable or in the best interests of Lenders.

8A.8 Amendments, Waivers and Consents.

(A) Percentage of Lenders Required. Except as otherwise provided herein or in any of the other Loan Documents, no amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or consent to any departure by any Borrower therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Required Lenders (or, Agent, if expressly set forth herein or in any of the other Loan Documents) and the applicable Borrower. Any amendment, modification, termination, waiver or consent effected in accordance with this Section 8A shall be binding upon each Lender or future Lender and, if signed by a Borrower, on such Borrower.

Exhibit A—p. 9

(B) Specific Purpose or Intent. Each amendment, modification, termination, waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which it was given. No amendment, modification, termination, waiver or consent shall be required for Agent to take additional Collateral.

(C) Failure to Give Consent; Replacement of Non-Consenting Lender. In the event Agent requests the consent of a Lender and does not receive a written consent or denial thereof within fifteen (15) Business Days after such Lender’s receipt of such request, then such Lender will be deemed to have denied the giving of such consent. If, in connection with any proposed amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement requiring the consent or approval of all Lenders, the consent of Ally is obtained but the consent of one or more other Lenders whose consent is required (whether as a “Required Lender” or otherwise) is not obtained, then Borrower or Agent shall have the right, so long as all such non-consenting Lenders are replaced as described below, to replace the non-consenting Lenders with one or more Replacement Lenders pursuant to Section 8A.10(B), as if such Lender were an Affected Lender thereunder, but only so long as each such Replacement Lender consents to the proposed amendment, modification, termination or waiver.

Notwithstanding anything in this Section 8A.8, Agent and Borrower, without the consent of either Required Lenders or all Lenders, may execute amendments to this Agreement and the Loan Documents, which consist solely of the making of typographical corrections.

(D) Return of Payments.

(1) Recovery after Non-Receipt of Expected Payment. If Agent pays an amount to a Lender under this Agreement in the belief or expectation that a related payment has been or will be received by Agent from any Borrower and such related payment is not received by Agent, then Agent will be entitled to recover such amount from such Lender without set-off, counterclaim or deduction of any kind together with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available by Agent to such Lender to but excluding the date of repayment to Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.

(2) Recovery of Returned Payment. If Agent determines at any time that any amount received by Agent under this Agreement must be returned to any Borrower or paid to any other Person pursuant to any requirement of law, court order or otherwise, then, notwithstanding any other term or condition of this Agreement, Agent will not be required to distribute any portion thereof to any Lender. In addition, each Lender will repay to Agent on demand any portion of such amount that Agent has distributed to such Lender, together with interest at such rate, if any, as Agent is required to pay to any Borrower or such other Person, without set-off, counterclaim or deduction of any kind.

8A.9 Set Off and Sharing of Payments.

(A) In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under applicable law and not by way of limitation of any such rights, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, each Lender is hereby authorized by each Borrower at any time or from time to

Exhibit A—p. 10

time, with reasonably prompt subsequent notice to such Borrower (any prior or contemporaneous notice being hereby expressly waived) to set off and to appropriate and to apply any and all (a) balances held by such Lender at any of its offices for the account of such Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (regardless of whether such balances are then due to such Borrower or its Subsidiaries), and (b) other property at any time held or owing by such Lender to or for the credit or for the account of such Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, against and on account of any of the Obligations; except that no Lender shall exercise any such right without the prior written consent of Agent; provided that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 8A.3 and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of Agent and the Lenders, and (y) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff.

(B) If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of, or interest on, any of its Loans or other obligations hereunder resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and accrued interest thereon or other such obligations greater than its Pro Rata Share thereof as provided herein, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (a) notify Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans and such other obligations of the other Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans and other amounts owing them; provided that if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest

(C) Each Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against each Borrower rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of each Borrower in the amount of such participation.

8A.10 Defaulting Lender.

(A) Availability of a Lender’s Pro Rata Share.

(1) Lender’s Amounts Available on a Funding Date. Unless Agent receives written notice from a Lender on or prior to any Funding Date that such Lender will not make available to Agent as and when required such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of any requested Loan, Agent may assume that each Lender will make such amount available to Agent in immediately available funds on the Funding Date and Agent may (but shall not be so required), in reliance upon such assumption, make available to Borrower on such date a corresponding amount.

(2) Lender’s Failure to Fund. A Defaulting Lender shall pay interest to Agent at the Federal Funds Effective Rate on the Defaulted Amount from the Business Day following

Exhibit A—p. 11

the applicable Funding Date of such Defaulted Amount until the date such Defaulted Amount is paid to Agent. A notice of Agent submitted to any Lender with respect to amounts owing under this subsection shall be conclusive, absent manifest error. If such amount is not paid when due to Agent, Agent, at its option, may notify Borrower of such failure to fund and, upon demand by Agent, Borrower shall pay the unpaid amount to Agent for Agent’s account, together with interest thereon for each day elapsed since the date of such borrowing, at a rate per annum equal to the interest rate applicable at the time to the Loan made by the other Lenders on such Funding Date. The failure of any Lender to make available any portion of its Commitment on any Funding Date or to fund its participation in any advance made by Agent pursuant to Section 8A.4 shall not relieve any other Lender of any obligation hereunder to fund such Lender’s Commitment on such Funding Date or to fund any such participation, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to honor its Commitment on any Funding Date or to fund any participation to be funded by any other Lender.

(B) Defaulting Lenders.

(1) Defaulting Lender Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as such Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law:

(a) Waivers and Amendments. Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be restricted as set forth in the definition of Required Lenders.

(b) Defaulting Lender Waterfall. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, or otherwise) shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to Agent hereunder; second, to any Lender which may have advanced any Loans or other sums or payments which the Defaulting Lender has failed to advance or pay (which shall be a matter of a Lender’s sole discretion), the amount so advanced, with interest thereon at the highest rate payable by Borrower on the Loans; third, as Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by Agent; fourth, if so determined by Agent and Borrower, to be held in a deposit account and released pro rata in order to satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans under this Agreement; fifth, to the payment of any amounts owing to Agent or the Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by Agent or any Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; sixth, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and seventh, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (y) such Loans were made at a time when the conditions to such Loans were satisfied or waived,

Exhibit A—p. 12

such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Loans are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender pursuant to this subsection shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

(c) Certain Fees. No Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any Unused Line Fee for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and Borrower shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender). With respect to any Unused Line Fee not required to be paid to any Defaulting Lender pursuant to this subsection, Borrower shall not be required to pay any such fee, provided that, if another Lender has advanced any Loans which the Defaulting Lender was required to make, but did not advance, then such Unused Line Fee shall be payable to such Lender which advanced such Loans.

(2) Replacement of Defaulting Lender. Within fifteen (15) days after receipt by Borrower of written notice from Agent declaring any Lender a Defaulting Lender, Borrower may, at its option, without limiting any of its rights and remedies obtain, at Borrower’s expense, a replacement Lender (“Replacement Lender”) for a Defaulting Lender (the “Affected Lender”), which Replacement Lender shall be reasonably satisfactory to Agent. In the event Borrower obtains a Replacement Lender that will purchase all outstanding Obligations for the full amount thereof owed to such Affected Lender and assume its Commitments hereunder within ninety (90) days following notice of Borrower’s intention to do so, the Affected Lender shall sell and assign its Loans and Commitments to such Replacement Lender in accordance with documentation reasonably satisfactory to Affected Lender and Replacement Lender.

(3) Defaulting Lender Cure. If Borrower and Agent agree in writing that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein, that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans to be held pro rata by the Lenders in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares, whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

Exhibit A—p. 13

8A.11 Mutual Option to Purchase.

(A) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any of the following events or conditions (each, an “Option Trigger”): (i) an Event of Default shall occur and Required Lenders cannot agree on a course of action, or (ii) an Insolvency Event shall occur, a Lender (the “Buying Lender”) shall have an option (the “Option”) to purchase all of the Obligations owing to the other Lender (the “Selling Lender”), and all security and collateral therefor and all guarantees thereof for a purchase price (the “Purchase Price”) equal to the total unpaid balance of Obligations, including all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, and all fees, costs and expenses (including without limitation attorneys fees) incurred by Selling Lender in connection therewith.

(B) The Option may be exercised by the Buying Lender at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Option Trigger, by giving written notice thereof to the Selling Lender. (The first Lender to exercise the Option shall be the “Buying Lender” for purposes of this Section 8A.11.) Within ten business days after written notice of the exercise of the Option is given, the Buying Lender shall pay the Selling Lender the Purchase Price in immediately available funds, and the Selling Lender shall execute assignments of the Selling Lender’s Obligations, all of Selling Lender’s rights under this Agreement, and all documents and instruments relating thereto, in such form as the Buying Lender shall reasonably request, but without recourse, warranty or representation of any kind on the part of the Selling Lender, except a representation as to the unpaid balance of the Selling Lender’s Obligations, and that Selling Lender has good title to the Selling Lender’s Obligations, free and clear of any liens, claims or encumbrances.

(C) The Option shall lapse and be of no further force and effect if the Buying Lender fails to consummate the purchase in accordance with this Section 8A.11 within the ten-business day period specified above.

8A.12 Successors and Assigns.

(A) Successors and Assigns Generally. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of Agent and Required Lenders, and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an assignee in accordance with the provisions of paragraph (B) of this Section 8A.12, (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of paragraph (D) of this Section 8A.12, (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of paragraph (F) of this Section 8A.12 (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void), or (iv) as provided in paragraph (E) of this Section 8A.12. Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in paragraph (D) of this Section 8A.12, and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, affiliates of each of Agent and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

Exhibit A—p. 14

(B) Assignments by Lenders. Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it); provided that (in each case with respect to any Loans) any such assignment shall be subject to the following conditions:

(1) Minimum Amounts.

(a) in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it or in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender, no minimum amount need be assigned; and

(b) in any case not described in paragraph (B)(1)(a) of this subsection, the aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for this purpose includes Loans outstanding thereunder) or, if the applicable Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption Agreement with respect to such assignment is delivered to Agent) shall not be less than $5,000,000, unless Agent otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

(2) Proportionate Amounts. Each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Loan or the Commitment assigned.

(3) Required Consents. No consent shall be required for any assignment except to the extent required by paragraph (B)(1)(b) of this Section 8A.12 and, in addition:

(a) the consent of Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment; provided that Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to Agent within five Business Days after having received notice thereof; and

(b) the consent of Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for assignments, if such assignment is to a Person that is not a Lender or an Affiliate of such Lender.

(4) Assignment and Assumption. The parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to Agent an Assignment and Assumption Agreement, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500; provided that Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to waive such processing and recordation fee in the case of any assignment.

(5) No Assignment to Certain Persons. No such assignment shall be made (A) to Borrower or any of Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries, or (B) to any Defaulting Lender or any of its Subsidiaries, or (C) to any Person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons described in this clause (5).

Exhibit A—p. 15

(7) Certain Additional Payments. In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments to Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or sub-participations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of Borrower and Agent, the applicable Pro Rata Share of Loans previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to Agent and each Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon), and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full Pro Rata Share of all Loans. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under applicable law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.

Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by Agent pursuant to paragraph (C) of this subsection, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption Agreement, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption Agreement, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption Agreement, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption Agreement covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of indemnities provided herein with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment; provided, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no assignment by a Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this paragraph shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (D) of this Section.

(C) Register. Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices in New York, New York a copy of each Assignment and Assumption Agreement delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts (and stated interest) of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(D) Participations. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, Borrower or Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural Person or Borrower or

Exhibit A—p. 16

any of Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, and (iii) Borrower, Agent, the Issuing Lenders and Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, each Lender shall be responsible for the indemnities provided in this Agreement with respect to any payments made by such Lender to its Participant(s).

Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f. 103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, Agent (in its capacity as Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

(E) Security Interests; Assignment to Affiliates. Notwithstanding any other provision set forth in this Agreement, any Lender may at any time following written notice to Agent (1) pledge the Obligations held by it or create a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents in favor of any Person; provided, however (a) no such pledge or grant of security interest to any Person shall release such Lender from its obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document, and (b) the acquisition of title to such Lender’s Obligations pursuant to any foreclosure or other exercise of remedies by such Person shall be subject to the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents in all respects including, without limitation, any consent required by this Section 8A.12.
