Unless otherwise permitted by Lender, each Advance requested by Borrower shall be in an amount of at least $25,000. Subject to Availability and the provisions of this Agreement, Borrower may request Advances under the Revolving Facility from time to time as set forth in Section 2.4. Advances under the Revolving Facility automatically may, in the discretion of the Lender, be made for the payment of interest on the Revolving Facility and other Obligations on the date when due to the extent of Availability and as provided for herein.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Lender shall have the right (but not the obligation), in the exercise of its Permitted Discretion, to establish and increase or decrease reserves against the Borrowing Base, including without limitation, the Closing Reserve. Lender agrees to promptly release a portion of the Closing Reserve at such time as Lender receives a portion of the Convertible Note Subordination Agreements that were not delivered to Lender or its representatives at or prior to Closing which released portion shall be equal to the amount of the Convertible Note Subordinated Debt subject to such Convertible Note Subordination Agreement(s) received by Lender at such time, each Convertible Note Subordination Agreement to be in form and substance satisfactory to Lender.

(c) Upon the request by Borrower, Lender may in its sole and absolute discretion make one or more Advances in excess of Availability. The making of any Advance in excess of Availability shall not be deemed an acknowledgement that any additional such Advances will be made or may be required to be made; nor shall any such Advance be deemed to establish any course of conduct, waiver, or estoppel that would obligate Lender to make any further such Advances or prevent the Lender from treating the Borrower’s failure to repay such Advance(s) as a Default or an Event of Default. In the event outstanding Advances under the Revolving Facility exceed the Availability (whether because of an intentional Advance in excess of Availability or a reduction in the Borrowing Base or otherwise), Lender may charge an over-advance fee of ten percent (10%) of the amount by which such outstanding Advances exceed the Availability. Such over-advance fee shall be in addition to any other fees, charges or other provisions that may increase the Applicable Rate of interest hereunder and the assessment or collection of such over-advance fee shall not, unless Lender specifically agrees in writing to the contrary, prevent Lender from considering any such over-advance from being a Default or an Event of Default. The over-advance fee shall be paid on the first Business Day of each week if the amount outstanding hereunder is in excess of the Availability at any time during the immediately preceding week.

2.2 Evidence of Obligations; Date Due

(a) Lender shall maintain a loan account (the “Loan Account”) on its books to record Loans and other extensions of credit made by the Lender hereunder or under any other Loan Document, and all payments thereon made by or on behalf of each Borrower. All entries in the Loan Account shall be made in accordance with Lender’s customary accounting practices as in effect from time to time. The balance in the Loan Account, as recorded in Lender’s books and records at any time shall be conclusive and binding evidence of the amounts due and owing to Lender by each Borrower absent manifest error; provided, however, that any failure to so record or any error in so recording shall not limit or otherwise affect any Borrower’s duty to pay all amounts owing hereunder or under any other Loan Document. Lender shall endeavor to provide Borrowers with a monthly statement regarding the Loan Account (but Lender shall have no liability if Lender shall fail to provide any such statement). Unless any Borrower notifies Lender of any objection to any such statement (specifically describing the basis for such objection) within sixty (60) days after the date of receipt thereof, it shall be deemed final, binding and conclusive upon Borrowers in all respects as to all matters reflected therein.

(b) All amounts outstanding hereunder and other Obligations shall be due and payable in full, if not earlier in accordance with this Agreement, on the Termination Date.

2.3 Interest on Revolving Loan

Interest shall accrue on the principal amount of the Revolving Facility outstanding from time to time hereunder at a rate per annum equal to the Prime Rate plus the Applicable Margin calculated on the basis of a 360-day year and adjusted for the actual number of calendar days elapsed in each interest calculation period. Interest shall be payable by Borrower monthly in arrears but in no event later than the first Business Day of each calendar month, commencing March 1, 2017.

Interest payments may, at the discretion of the Lender, be made (i) by application of funds in the Concentration Account as set forth in Section 2.5, (ii) by an Advance on the Revolving Facility, as set forth in Section 2.1, without any further action by Borrower, or (iii) directly by Borrower. Interest shall continue until the irrevocable payment in full in cash of the Obligations. Any accrued but unpaid interest shall be added to the Obligations and increase the principal amount outstanding hereunder on the first Business Day of each month.

2.4 Revolving Facility Disbursements; Requirement to Deliver Borrowing Certificate So long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Borrower may give Lender written notice requesting an Advance under the Revolving Facility by delivering to Lender not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) at least two but not more than four Business Days before the proposed borrowing date of such requested Advance (the “Borrowing Date”), a completed Borrowing Certificate and relevant supporting documentation satisfactory to Lender in its Permitted Discretion, which shall (i) specify the proposed Borrowing Date of such Advance which shall be a Business Day, and (ii) specify the principal amount of such requested Advance, (iii) certify the matters specified therein. In the event that Borrower does not request an Advance during any two consecutive calendar weeks, Borrower shall, on the last Business Day of the second such week (and more frequently if Lender shall so request) until the Obligations are indefeasibly paid in cash in full and this Agreement is terminated, deliver to Lender a Borrowing Certificate which shall (i) certify the matters specified therein, and (ii) be accompanied by a separate detailed aging and categorizing of Borrower’s accounts receivable and such other supporting documentation with respect to the figures and information in the Borrowing Certificate as Lender shall reasonably request from a credit or security perspective or otherwise. On each Borrowing Date, Borrower authorizes Lender to disburse the proceeds of the requested Advance to the Borrower’s account(s) as set forth on Schedule 2.4 (or to such other account as to which the Borrower shall expressly instruct Lender in writing), for credit by the recipient of such proceeds to the Borrower, via federal funds wire transfer no later than 4:00 p.m. (New York City time); provided, however, if any amounts are then due to Lender on account of any interest, fees or expense reimbursements due under the Loan Documents at the time such Advance is requested, Lender is authorized (but not required) to reduce the proceeds to Borrower with respect to such Advance by the amount of such interest, fees or expense reimbursements and to retain such amounts as payment of such interest, fees or expense reimbursements. Lender shall charge a processing fee of $150.00 for the first Advance each calendar week and $450.00 for each additional Advance during such calendar week.

2.5 Collections; Repayment; Borrowing Availability and Lockbox

Prior to the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the Borrower shall establish and maintain at the Borrower’s expense an account (the “Lockbox Account”) with a depository institution satisfactory to the Lender into which all collections in respect of all Eligible Receivables shall be deposited, pursuant to one or more agreements acceptable to Lender in its sole discretion (collectively, the “Lockbox Agreement”). (The depository institution(s) in which the Lockbox Account is maintained are referred to as the “Lockbox Bank”.) The Borrower hereby agrees to direct each payor of an Account to remit all payments with respect to such Account for deposit in the Lockbox Account by (A) delivering to each such payor a notice containing such instructions and (B) identifying the Lockbox Account as the “pay to” address on all bills sent to payors of all Accounts. The Borrower further agrees not to change such directive to payors without the prior written consent of the Lender. The Borrower agrees not to terminate the Lockbox Account. The Lockbox Agreement shall instruct the Lockbox Bank to immediately transfer all funds paid into the Lockbox Accounts into a depository account or accounts owned and maintained by Lender or an Affiliate of Lender at such bank as Lender may communicate to the Lockbox Bank from time to time (the “Concentration Account”). The Borrower agrees not to revoke such instructions and the Borrower hereby agrees not to change or direct the custodian thereof to modify such sweep order or to provide any other or additional instructions to the custodian thereof. In the event the payors with respect to any Eligible Receivables receive any instruction whatsoever from or on behalf of the Borrower indicating that collections with respect to the Eligible Receivables should be sent to any location other than the Lockbox Account, the Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that such actions would be an express violation of this Agreement, would cause irreparable harm to the Lender for which there would be no adequate remedy at law, and agrees and consents to entry of an order by a court of competent jurisdiction granting the Lender specific performance of the terms and provisions of this Agreement as to the Borrower.

To the extent that any Account collections of Borrower or any other cash payments received by Borrower are not sent directly to the Lockbox Account but are received by Borrower or any of its Affiliates, such collections and proceeds shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Lender and immediately remitted (and in any event within one (1) Business Day), in the form received (or, with respect to cash, by check or wire transfer), to the Lockbox Account for immediate transfer to the Concentration Account. Borrower acknowledges and agrees that compliance with the terms of this Section 2.5 is an essential term of this Agreement, and that, in addition to and notwithstanding any other rights Lender may have hereunder under any other Loan Document, under applicable law or equity, upon each and every failure by Borrower or any of its Affiliates to cause collections with respect to Eligible Receivables or any other payments to Borrower with respect to the Collateral to be deposited into the Lockbox Account as set forth in this Section 2.5, Lender shall be entitled to assess Borrower with a non-compliance fee in an amount equal to ten percent (10%) of the amount of such collections or other payments; provided that such non-compliance fee shall be in addition to any other fees, charges or other provisions that may increase the Applicable Rate of interest hereunder and the assessment or collection of such non-compliance fee shall not, unless Lender specifically agrees in writing to the contrary, prevent Lender from considering any such non-compliance to be a Default or an Event of Default. For purposes of determining Availability, all funds transferred to the Concentration Account in accordance with this Section shall be applied in accordance with the foregoing sentence as of the date of the transfer. For purposes of calculating interest, all funds transferred to the Concentration Account in accordance with this Section shall be subject to a three (3) Business Day clearance period and all interest accruing on such funds during such clearance period shall accrue for the benefit of the Lender. All funds transferred to the Concentration Account for application to the Obligations shall be applied to reduce the Obligations hereunder in the following order of priority: (i) payment of any fees and expense reimbursements due to Lender under the Loan Documents, (ii) any other Obligations of Borrower not included in items (iii) and (iv) below, (iii) to any interest then due and owing hereunder, and (iv) to the principal amount outstanding hereunder. If as the result of collections of Accounts and/or any other cash payments received by Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.5 there is a positive balance in favor of Borrower in the Concentration Account, such positive balance shall not accrue interest in favor of Borrower, but shall be available to Borrower in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. If applicable, at any time prior to the execution of all or any of the Lockbox Agreements and operation of all or any of the Lockbox Accounts, Borrower and its Affiliates shall direct all collections or proceeds it receives on Accounts or from other Collateral to the account(s) and in the manner specified by Lender in its Permitted Discretion so long as any amounts are outstanding under the Revolving Facility.

2.6 Promise to Pay; Manner of Payment

Borrower promises to pay principal, interest and all other amounts payable hereunder, or under any other Loan Document, without any right of rescission and without any deduction whatsoever, including any deduction for any setoff, counterclaim or recoupments, and notwithstanding any damage to, defects in or destruction of the Collateral or any other event, including obsolescence of any property or improvements. Unless paid in accordance with Section 2.5, all payments made by Borrower (other than payments automatically paid through Advances under the Revolving Facility as provided herein), shall be made only by wire transfer on the date when due, without offset or deduction for counterclaim, in U.S. Dollars, in immediately available funds to such account as may be indicated in writing by Lender to Borrower from time to time. Any such payment received after 4:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date when due shall be deemed received on the following Business Day. Whenever any payment hereunder shall be stated to be due or shall become due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, the due date thereof shall be extended to, and such payment shall be made on, the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time in such case shall be included in the computation of payment of any interest (at the interest rate then in effect during such extension) and/or fees, as the case may be.

2.7 Repayment of Excess Advances

Subject to the following sentence, any balance of Advances under the Revolving Facility outstanding at any time in excess of the Revolving Loan Limit shall be immediately due and payable by Borrower upon demand (or, if such overadvance was created as a result of Lender’s adjustment of the advance rates for Availability or eligibility criteria, then within five (5) Business Days, unless such adjustment by Lender was the result of any misrepresentation or fraud of the Borrower, in which as there shall be no grace period and any such overadvance shall be immediately due and payable), whether or not a Default or Event of Default has occurred or is continuing and shall be paid in the manner specified in Section 2.6. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Lender intentionally makes an Advance which is in excess of Availability, such Advance shall be repaid within five (5) Business Days of a demand for repayment or when it is otherwise required to be repaid pursuant to other Sections of this Agreement.

2.8 Payments by Lender

Should any amount required to be paid under any Loan Document remain unpaid after it is due and payable and after the expiration of any cure period, if applicable, such amount may be paid by Lender, which payment shall be deemed a request for an Advance under the Revolving Facility as of the date such payment is due, and Borrower irrevocably authorizes disbursements of any such funds to Lender by way of direct payment of the relevant amount, interest or Obligations. No payment or prepayment of any amount by Lender or any other Person shall entitle any Person to be subrogated to the rights of Lender under any Loan Document unless and until the Obligations have been fully performed and paid irrevocably in cash and this Agreement has been terminated. Any sums expended by Lender as a result of any Borrower’s or any Guarantor’s failure to pay, perform or comply with any Loan Document or any of the Obligations may be charged to Borrower’s account as an Advance under the Revolving Facility and added to the Obligations and increase the principal amount of the Revolving Loans outstanding hereunder.

2.9 Grant of Security Interest; Collateral

(a) To secure the payment and performance of the Obligations, and without limiting any grant of a Lien and security interest in any other Loan Document, the Borrower hereby grants to Lender a continuing security interest in and Lien upon, and pledges to Lender, all of its right, title and interest in and to the personal property set forth on Schedule 2.9 attached hereto and made a part hereof.

(b) Upon the execution and delivery of this Agreement, and upon the proper filing of the necessary financing statements without any further action, Lender will have a good, valid and perfected first priority Lien and security interest in all Collateral which may be perfected by the filing of financing statements, subject to no transfer or other restrictions or Liens of any kind in favor of any other Person except for Permitted Liens. No financing statement relating to any of the Collateral is on file in any public office except those (i) on behalf of Lender, and/or (ii) in connection with Permitted Liens.

2.10 Collateral Administration

(a) All Collateral (except funds required to be deposited in the Lockbox Accounts) will at all times be kept by Borrower at the locations (including warehouses) set forth on Schedule 5.18 hereto and shall not, without concurrent written notice to Lender, be moved therefrom and in any case shall not be moved outside the continental United States.

(b) Borrower shall keep accurate and complete records of its Accounts and all payments and collections thereon and shall submit such records to Lender on such periodic basis as Lender may request. After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, and upon Lender’s request, Borrower shall execute and deliver to Lender formal written assignments of all of its Accounts weekly or daily as Lender may request, including all Accounts created since the date of the last assignment, together with copies of invoices and/or other information related thereto. To the extent that collections from such assigned Accounts exceed the amount of the Obligations, such excess amount shall not accrue interest in favor of Borrower, but shall be available to Borrower upon Borrower’s written request.

(c) Any of Lender’s officers, employees, representatives or agents shall have the right, at any time during normal business hours upon reasonable prior notice to Borrower, to verify the validity, amount or any other matter relating to any Accounts of Borrower. Borrower shall cooperate fully with Lender in an effort to facilitate and promptly conclude such verification.

(d) Lender shall have the right at all times after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default to notify Account Debtors owing Accounts to Borrower that their Accounts have been assigned to Lender and to collect such Accounts directly in its own name and to charge collection costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, to Borrower.

(e) As and when determined by Lender in its Permitted Discretion, Lender shall have the right to perform the searches described in clauses (i) and (ii) below against Borrower and Guarantors (the results of which are to be consistent with Borrower’s representations and warranties under this Agreement), at Borrower’s reasonable expense: (i) UCC searches with the Secretary of State and local filing offices of each jurisdiction where Borrower maintains its executive offices, a place of business or assets or in which they are organized; and (ii) judgment and federal, state and local tax lien searches, in each jurisdiction searched under clause (i) above.

(f) Borrower (i) shall provide prompt written notice to its current bank to transfer all items, collections and remittances to the Concentration Account, (ii) shall direct each Account Debtor to make payments to the Lockbox Account as set forth in Section 2.5, and Borrower hereby authorizes Lender, upon any failure to send such notices and directions within ten (10) calendar days after the date of this Agreement (or ten (10) calendar days after the Person becomes an Account Debtor), to send any and all similar notices and directions to such Account Debtors, and (iii) shall do anything further that may be lawfully required by Lender to secure Lender and effectuate the intentions of the Loan Documents.

(g) As of the Closing Date, no Borrower has any ownership interest in any Chattel Paper (as defined in Article 9 of the UCC), letter of credit rights, commercial tort claims, Instruments, documents or investment property (other than equity interests in any Subsidiaries of such Borrower disclosed on Schedule 5.3) and Borrowers shall give notice to Lender promptly (but in any event not later than the delivery by Borrowers of the next Borrowing Certificate required pursuant to Section 2.4 above) upon the acquisition by any Borrower of any such Chattel Paper, letter of credit rights, commercial tort claims, Instruments, documents, investment property. No Person other than any Lender has “control” (as defined in Article 9 of the UCC) over any Deposit Account, investment property (including securities accounts and commodities account), letter of credit rights or electronic chattel paper in which any Borrower has any interest (except for such control arising by operation of law in favor of any bank or securities intermediary or commodities intermediary with whom any Deposit Account, securities account or commodities account of Borrowers is maintained).

(h) Borrowers will conduct a physical count of the Inventory at least twice per year and at such other times as Lender requests, and Borrowers shall provide to Lender a written accounting of such physical count in form and substance satisfactory to Lender. Each Borrower will use commercially reasonable efforts to at all times keep its Inventory in good and marketable condition. In addition to the foregoing, from time to time, Lender may require Borrowers to obtain and deliver to Lender appraisal reports in form and substance and from appraisers reasonably satisfactory to Lender stating the then current fair market values of all or any portion of Inventory owned by each Borrower or any Subsidiaries.

(i) In addition to the foregoing, from time to time, Lender may require Borrowers to obtain and deliver to Lender appraisal reports, at the Borrower’s expense, in form and substance and from appraisers reasonably satisfactory to Lender stating the then current Orderly Liquidation Values, as required by the Lender, and fair market values of all or any portion of Inventory, Intellectual Property and furniture, fixtures and equipment owned by each Borrower or any Subsidiaries.

(j) Borrowers shall not adjust, settle or compromise the amount or payment of any Account, or release wholly or partly any Account Debtor, or allow any credit or discount thereon (other than adjustments, settlements, compromises, credits and discounts in the ordinary course of business, made while no Default exists and in amounts which are not material with respect to the Account and which, after giving effect thereto, do not cause the Borrowing Base to be less than the Revolving Loans outstanding) without the prior written consent of Lender. Without limiting the generality of this Agreement or any other provisions of any of the Loan Documents relating to the rights of Lender after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Lender shall have the right at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default to: (i) exercise the rights of Borrowers with respect to the obligation of any Account Debtor to make payment or otherwise render performance to Borrowers and with respect to any property that secures the obligations of any Account Debtor or any other Person obligated on the Collateral, and (ii) adjust, settle or compromise the amount or payment of such Accounts.

(k) Without limiting the generality of Sections 2.10(g) and (j):

(A) Borrowers shall deliver to Lender all tangible Chattel Paper and all Instruments and documents owned by any Borrower and constituting part of the Collateral duly endorsed and accompanied by duly executed instruments of transfer or assignment, all in form and substance satisfactory to Lender. Borrowers shall provide Lender with “control” (as defined in Article 9 of the UCC) of all electronic Chattel Paper owned by any Borrower and constituting part of the Collateral by having Lender identified as the assignee on the records pertaining to the single authoritative copy thereof and otherwise complying with the applicable elements of control set forth in the UCC. Borrowers also shall deliver to Lender all security agreements securing any such Chattel Paper and securing any such Instruments. Borrowers will xxxx conspicuously all such Chattel Paper and all such Instruments and documents with a legend, in form and substance satisfactory to Lender, indicating that such Chattel Paper and such instruments and documents are subject to the security interests and Liens in favor of Lender created pursuant to this Agreement and the Security Documents.

(B) Borrowers shall deliver to Lender all letters of credit on which any Borrower is the beneficiary and which give rise to letter of credit rights owned by such Borrower which constitute part of the Collateral in each case duly endorsed and accompanied by duly executed instruments of transfer or assignment, all in form and substance satisfactory to Lender. Borrowers shall take any and all actions as may be necessary or desirable, or that Lender may request, from time to time, to cause Lender to obtain exclusive “control” (as defined in Article 9 of the UCC) of any such letter of credit rights in a manner acceptable to Lender.

(C) Borrowers shall promptly advise Lender upon any Borrower becoming aware that it has any interests in any commercial tort claim that constitutes part of the Collateral, which such notice shall include descriptions of the events and circumstances giving rise to such commercial tort claim and the dates such events and circumstances occurred, the potential defendants with respect such commercial tort claim and any court proceedings that have been instituted with respect to such commercial tort claims, and Borrowers shall, with respect to any such commercial tort claim, execute and deliver to Lender such documents as Lender shall request to perfect, preserve or protect the Liens, rights and remedies of Lender with respect to any such commercial tort claim.

(D) Except for Accounts and Inventory in an aggregate amount of $25,000, no Accounts or Inventory or other Collateral shall at any time be in the possession or control of any warehouse, consignee, bailee or any of Borrowers’ agents or processors without prior written notice to Lender and the receipt by Lender, if Lender has so requested, of warehouse receipts, consignment agreements or bailee lien waivers (as applicable) satisfactory to Lender prior to the commencement of such possession or control; provided, however, that for Collateral located at the Creekside Springs, LLC facilities no such consent shall be required unless the value of the Collateral exceeds $30,000 at any time; provided, further, that for Collateral located at the Unix Packaging, Inc. facility the value of the Collateral shall not exceed $250,000 at any time. Borrower has notified Lender that Inventory is currently located at the locations set forth on Schedule 5.18. Borrowers shall, upon the request of Lender, notify any such warehouse, consignee, bailee, agent or processor of the security interests and Liens in favor of Lender created pursuant to this Agreement and the Loan Documents, instruct such Person to hold all such Collateral for Lender’s account subject to Lender’s instructions and shall obtain an acknowledgement from such Person that such Person holds the Collateral for Lender’s benefit.

(E) Borrowers shall cause all equipment and other tangible Personal Property other than Inventory to be maintained and preserved in the same condition, repair and in working order as when new, ordinary wear and tear excepted, and shall promptly make or cause to be made all repairs, replacements and other improvements in connection therewith that are necessary or desirable to such end. Upon request of Lender, Borrowers shall promptly deliver to Lender any and all certificates of title, applications for title or similar evidence of ownership of all such tangible Personal Property and shall cause Lender to be named as lienholder on any such certificate of title or other evidence of ownership. Borrowers shall not permit any such tangible Personal Property to become fixtures to real estate unless such real estate is subject to a Lien in favor of Lender.

(F) Each Borrower acknowledges that Lender is authorized to file without the signature of such Borrower one or more UCC financing statements relating to liens on personal property relating to all or any part of the Collateral, which financing statements may list Lender as the “secured party” and such Borrower as the “debtor” and which describe and indicate the collateral covered thereby as all or any part of the Collateral under the Loan Documents (including an indication of the collateral covered by any such financing statement as “all assets” of such Borrower now owned or hereafter acquired), in such jurisdictions as Lender from time to time determines are appropriate, and to file without the signature of such Borrower any continuations of or corrective amendments to any such financing statements, in any such case in order for Lender to perfect, preserve or protect the Liens, rights and remedies of Lender with respect to the Collateral. Each Borrower also ratifies its authorization for Lender to have filed in any jurisdiction any initial UCC financing statements or amendments thereto if filed prior to the date hereof.

(G) As of the Closing Date, no Borrower holds, and after the Closing Date Borrowers shall promptly notify Lender in writing upon creation or acquisition by any Borrower of, any Collateral which constitutes a claim against any Governmental Authority, including, without limitation, the federal government of the United States or any instrumentality or agency thereof, the assignment of which claim is restricted by any applicable Law, including, without limitation, the federal Assignment of Claims Act and any other comparable Law. If any Collateral at any time constitutes a claim against a Governmental Authority, upon the request of Lender, Borrowers shall take such steps as may be necessary or desirable, or that Lender may request, to comply with any such applicable Law.

(H) Borrowers shall furnish to Lender from time to time any statements and schedules further identifying or describing the Collateral and any other information, reports or evidence concerning the Collateral as Lender may reasonably request from time to time.

2.11 Power of Attorney

Lender is hereby irrevocably made, constituted and appointed the true and lawful attorney-in-fact for Borrower (without requiring Lender to act as such) with full power of substitution to do the following: (i) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, endorse the name of the Borrower upon any and all checks, drafts, money orders, and other instruments for the payment of money that are payable to Borrower and constitute collections on its Accounts; (ii) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of Event of Default, execute in the name of Borrower any financing statements, schedules, assignments, instruments, documents, and statements that it is obligated to give Lender under any of the Loan Documents; (iii) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, do such other and further acts and deeds in the name of Borrower that Lender may reasonably deem necessary or desirable to enforce any Account or other Collateral including, without limitation, (a) demand, collect, receive for and give renewals, extensions, discharges and releases of any Account, (b) take possession of and liquidate any Account, (c) institute and prosecute legal and equitable proceedings to realize upon any Account, and (d) settle, compromise, compound or adjust claims in respect of any Account or any legal proceedings brought in respect thereof; (iv) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, in the name of Borrower, notify the Post Office authorities to change the address for the delivery of mail addressed to Borrower to such address as Lender may designate (notwithstanding the foregoing, for the purposes of notice and service of process to or upon Borrower as set forth in this Agreement, Lender’s rights to change the address for the delivery of mail shall not give Lender the right to change the address for notice and service of process to or upon Borrower in this Agreement); (v) perfect Lender’s security interest or lien in any Collateral, (vi) engage, on behalf of Borrower, a third party to service and collect Borrower’s receivables, including billing and rebilling third party payors, and (vii) sign IRS Forms W-9 on behalf of Borrower reflecting Borrower’s address as the address of the Lockboxes established pursuant to Section 2.5 and deliver such Forms to third party payors on the Borrower’s Accounts. In addition, if Borrower breaches its obligation hereunder to direct payments of Accounts or the proceeds of any other Collateral to the Lockbox Account, Lender, as the irrevocably made, constituted and appointed true and lawful attorney for Borrower pursuant to this paragraph, may by the signature or other act of any of Lender’s officers or authorized signatories (without requiring any of them to do so), direct any federal, state or private payor or fiscal intermediary to pay proceeds of Accounts or any other Collateral to the Lockbox Account. The appointment of Lender as attorney-in-fact for Borrower is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable.

2.12 Setoff Rights

During the continuance of any Event of Default, Lender is hereby authorized by Borrower at any time or from time to time, with reasonably prompt subsequent notice to 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 Lender or any of Lender’s Affiliates for the account of Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (regardless of whether such balances are then due to Borrower or its Subsidiaries), and (b) other property at any time held or owing by Lender to or for the credit or for the account of Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, against and on account of any of the Obligations.

III.

FEES AND OTHER CHARGES

3.1 Facility Fee

On or before the Closing Date, Borrower shall pay to Lender one percent (1.0%) of the Revolving Loan Commitment Amount as a nonrefundable and fully earned closing fee (the “Facility Fee”).

3.2 Unused Line Fee

Borrower shall pay to Lender monthly an unused line fee (the “Unused Line Fee”) in an amount equal to one-twelfth of one percent (0.083%) per month of the difference derived by subtracting (i) the average daily outstanding balance under the Revolving Facility during the preceding month, from (ii) the Revolving Loan Commitment Amount. The Unused Line Fee shall be payable monthly in arrears but in no event later than the first Business Day of each successive calendar month (starting with March 1, 2017). Payment of the Unused Line Fee may be made, at the discretion of Lender: (i) by application of available funds in the Concentration Account pursuant to Section 2.5, (ii) by application of Advances under the Revolving Facility pursuant to Section 2.1, or (iii) directly by Borrower.

3.3 Collateral Management Fee

Borrower shall pay Lender as additional interest a monthly collateral management fee (the “Collateral Management Fee”) for monitoring and servicing the Revolving Facility, equal to thirty-five hundredths of one percent (0.35%) per month calculated on the basis of the average daily balance under the Revolving Facility outstanding during the preceding month. The Collateral Management Fee shall be payable monthly in arrears but in no event later than the first Business Day of each successive calendar month (starting with March 1, 2017). Payment of the Collateral Management Fee may be made, at the discretion of Lender: (i) by application of available funds in the Concentration Account pursuant to Section 2.5, (ii) by application of Advances under the Revolving Facility pursuant to Section 2.1, or (iii) directly by Borrower.

3.4 Early Termination Fees

Upon a Revolving Facility Termination, Borrower shall pay Lender (in addition to the then outstanding principal, accrued interest and other Obligations (other than indemnity obligations with respect to which no claim has been made) relating to the Revolving Facility pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and any other Loan Documents), as yield maintenance for the loss of bargain and not as a penalty, an amount equal to the applicable Termination Fee. Notwithstanding any other provision of any Loan Document, no Termination Fee as described above shall be due and payable if (i) Borrower refinances the Obligations with Lender (which, for purposes hereof, shall include Lender, and any of its parents, subsidiaries or Affiliates), (ii) this Agreement terminates in accordance with its terms at the end of its Term, or (iii) Borrower terminates this Agreement within 10 days after Borrower provides written notice to Lender of a default by Lender hereunder, and such default by Lender remains uncured as of the date of such termination.

3.5 Computation of Fees; Lawful Limits

All fees hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and for the actual number of days elapsed in each calculation period, as applicable. In no contingency or event whatsoever, whether by reason of acceleration or otherwise, shall the interest and other charges paid or agreed to be paid to Lender for the use, forbearance or detention of money hereunder exceed the maximum rate permissible under applicable law which a court of competent jurisdiction shall, in a final determination, deem applicable hereto. If, due to any circumstance whatsoever, fulfillment of any provision hereof, at the time performance of such provision shall be due, shall exceed any such limit, then, the obligation to be so fulfilled shall be reduced to such lawful limit, and, if Lender shall have received interest or any other charges of any kind which might be deemed to be interest under applicable law in excess of the maximum lawful rate, then such excess shall be applied first to any unpaid fees and charges hereunder, then to unpaid principal balance owed by Borrowers hereunder, and if the then remaining excess interest is greater than the previously unpaid principal balance, Lender shall promptly refund such excess amount to Borrowers and the provisions hereof shall be deemed amended to provide for such permissible rate. The terms and provisions of this Section shall control to the extent any other provision of any Loan Document is inconsistent herewith.

3.6 Default Rate of Interest

Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, the Applicable Rate of interest in effect at such time with respect to the Obligations shall be increased by 5% per annum (the “Default Rate”). Such increase shall be in addition to any other specific charges provided for herein for noncompliance with specific provisions of this Agreement.

3.7 Acknowledgement of Joint and Several Liability

(a) Each Borrower is accepting joint and several liability hereunder and under the other Loan Documents in consideration of the financial accommodations to be provided by the Lender under this Agreement, for the mutual benefit, directly and indirectly, of such Borrower and in consideration of the undertakings of each other Borrower to accept joint and several liability for the Obligations.

(b) Each Borrower, jointly and severally, hereby irrevocably and unconditionally accepts, not merely as surety but also as a co-debtor, joint and several liability with the other Borrowers, with respect to the performance of all of the Obligations (including, without limitation, any Obligations arising under this Section 3.7), it being the intention of the parties hereto that all the Obligations shall be the joint and several obligations of the Borrowers without preference or distinction among them and that all of the representations, warranties, covenants, obligations, conditions, agreements and other terms contained in the Loan Documents shall be applicable to and be binding upon each Borrower.

(c) If and to the extent that any Borrower shall fail to make any payment with respect to any of the Obligations as and when due or to perform any of the Obligations in accordance with the terms thereof, then in each such event each other Borrower will make such payment with respect to, or perform, such Obligation.

(d) The Obligations of any Borrower under the provisions of this Section 3.7 constitute the full recourse Obligations of such Borrower enforceable against such Borrower to the full extent of its properties and assets, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or any other circumstance whatsoever as to any other Borrower.

(e) Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, each Borrower hereby waives promptness, diligence, presentment, demand, protest, notice of acceptance of its joint and several liability, notice of any and all Advances under the Revolving Facility, notice of occurrence of any Default or Event of Default (except to the extent notice is expressly required to be given pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents), or of any demand for any payment under this Agreement, notice of any action at any time taken or omitted by Lender or under or in respect of any of the Obligations hereunder, any requirement of diligence and, generally, all demands, notices and other formalities of every kind in connection with this Agreement and other Loan Documents. Each Borrower hereby waives all defenses which may be available by virtue of any valuation, stay, moratorium law or other similar law now or hereafter in effect, any right to require the marshaling of assets of such Borrower and any other entity or Person primarily or secondarily liable with respect to any of the Obligations, and all suretyship defenses generally. Each Borrower hereby assents to, and waives notice of, any extension or postponement of the time for the payment, or place or manner for payment, compromise, refinancing, consolidation or renewals of any of the Obligations hereunder, the acceptance of any partial payment thereon, any waiver, consent or other action or acquiescence by Lender at any time or times in respect of any default by such Borrower in the performance or satisfaction of any term, covenant, condition or provision of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, any and all other indulgences whatsoever by Lender in respect of any of the Obligations hereunder, and the taking, addition, substitution or release, in whole or in part, of such Borrower or any other entity or Person primarily or secondarily liable for any Obligation. Each Borrower further agrees that its Obligations shall not be released or discharged, in whole or in part, or otherwise affected by the adequacy of any rights which the Lender may have against any collateral security or other means of obtaining repayment of any of the Obligations, the impairment of any collateral security securing the Obligations, including, without limitation, the failure to protect or preserve any rights which Lender may have in such collateral security or the substitution, exchange, surrender, release, loss or destruction of any such collateral security, any other act or omission which might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of such Borrower, or otherwise operate as a release or discharge of such Borrower, all of which may be done without notice to such Borrower; provided, however, that the foregoing shall in no way be deemed to create commercially unreasonable standards as to Lender’s duties as secured party under the Loan Documents (as such rights and duties are set forth therein). If for any reason any Borrower has no legal existence or is under no legal obligation to discharge any of the Obligations, or if any of the Obligations have become irrecoverable from any Borrower by reason of any insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization or by other operation of law or for any reason, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which it is a party shall nevertheless be binding on each other Borrower to the same extent as if such Borrower at all times had been the sole obligor on such Obligations. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Borrower assents to any other action or delay in acting or failure to act on the part of Lender, including, without limitation, any failure strictly or diligently to assert any right or to pursue any remedy or to comply fully with applicable laws or regulations thereunder which might, but for the provisions of this Section 3.7, afford grounds for terminating, discharging or relieving such Borrower, in whole or in part, from any of its obligations under this Section 3.7, it being the intention of such Borrower that, so long as any of the Obligations hereunder remain unsatisfied, the obligations of such Borrower under Section 3.7 shall not be discharged except by performance and then only to the extent of such performance. The Obligations of each Borrower under this Section 3.7 shall not be diminished or rendered unenforceable by any winding up, reorganization, amalgamation, arrangement, liquidation, reconstruction or similar proceeding with respect to any other Borrower or the Lender. The joint and several liability of each Borrower hereunder shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding any absorption, merger, amalgamation or any other change whatsoever in the name, ownership, membership, constitution or place of formation of such Borrower or the Lender. Each Borrower acknowledges and confirms that it has established its own adequate means of obtaining from each other Borrower on a continuing basis all information desired by such Borrower concerning the financial condition of each other Borrower and that such Borrower will look to each other Borrower and not to Lender for Borrower to keep adequately informed of changes in each of the other Borrowers’ respective financial conditions.

(f) Each Borrower acknowledges that all or any portion of the Obligations may now or hereafter be secured by a Lien or Liens upon property of such Borrower. Lender may foreclose under all or any portion of one or more said Liens by means of judicial or nonjudicial sale or sales. Each Borrower agrees that Lender may exercise whatever rights and remedies it may have in respect to said security, all without affecting the liability of such Borrower hereunder, except to the extent Lender realizes payment by such action or proceeding. No election to proceed in one form of action or against any party, or on any obligation shall constitute a waiver of Lender’s right to proceed in any other form of action or against any Borrower or other Person, or diminish the liability of any Borrower, or affect the right of Lender to proceed against Borrower for any deficiency, except to the extent Lender realizes payment by such action, notwithstanding the effect of such action upon any Borrower’s rights of subrogation, reimbursement or indemnity, if any, against any other Borrower or any other person.

(g) The provisions of this Section 3.7 are made for the benefit of the Lender and its permitted successors and assigns, and may be enforced by it from time to time against any or all of the Borrowers as often as occasion may arise without requirement on the part of Lender or such successor or assign first to marshal any of its claims or to exercise any of its rights against any other Borrower or to exhaust any remedies available to it against any other Borrower or to resort to any other source or means of obtaining payment of any of the Obligations hereunder or to elect any other remedy. The provisions of this Section 3.7 shall remain in effect until all of the Obligations shall have been paid in full or otherwise fully satisfied. If at any time, any payment, or any part thereof, made in respect of any of the Obligations, is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by Lender upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any Borrower, or otherwise, the provisions of this Section 3.7 will forthwith be reinstated in effect, as though such payment had not been made.

(h) Each Borrower hereby agrees that it will not enforce any of its rights of reimbursement, contribution, subrogation or the like against any other Borrower with respect to any liability incurred by it hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents, any payments made by it to Lender with respect to any of the Obligations or any collateral security therefor until such time as all of the Obligations have been indefeasibly satisfied. Any claim which any Borrower may have against any other Borrower with respect to any payments to Lender hereunder or under other Loan Documents are hereby expressly made subordinate and junior in right of payment, without limitation as to any increases in the Obligations arising hereunder or thereunder, to the prior payment in full of the Obligations and, in the event of any insolvency, bankruptcy, receivership, liquidation, reorganization or other similar proceeding under the laws of any jurisdiction relating to such Borrower, its debts, or its assets, whether voluntary or involuntary, all such Obligations shall be paid in full before any payment or distribution of any character, whether in cash, securities or other property, shall be made to any other Borrower therefor.

(i) Each Borrower hereby agrees that the payment of any amounts due with respect to the indebtedness owing by any Borrower to any other Borrower is hereby subordinated to the prior payment in full in cash of the Obligations. Borrower hereby agrees that after the occurrence and during the continuance of any Default or Event of Default, each Borrower will not demand, xxx for or otherwise attempt to collect any indebtedness of any other Borrower owing to any Borrower until the Obligations shall have been paid in full in cash. If, notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, any Borrower shall collect, enforce or receive any amounts in respect of such indebtedness, such amounts shall be collected, enforced and received by such Borrower as trustee for Lender and be paid over to Lender to be applied to repay the Obligations.

V.	REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

In order to induce Lender to enter into this Agreement and to advance funds to the Borrowers, each Borrower represents and warrants as of the date hereof, the Closing Date, and each Borrowing Date as follows:

5.1 Organization and Authority

Each Credit Party is an entity of the type specified on Schedule 5.1, is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing or existence under the laws of the jurisdiction specified on Schedule 5.1 and no other jurisdiction. Each Credit Party (i) has all requisite corporate power and authority to own its properties and assets and to carry on its business as now being conducted and as contemplated in the Loan Documents, (ii) is duly qualified to do business in every jurisdiction in which failure so to qualify would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, and (iii) has requisite power and authority (A) to execute, deliver and perform the Loan Documents to which it is a party and all amendments thereto, (B) to borrow hereunder, (C) to consummate the transactions contemplated under the Loan Documents, and (D) to grant the Liens with regard to the Collateral pursuant to the Loan Documents to which it is a party. No Credit Party is an “investment company” registered or required to be registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, nor is any Credit Party controlled by or a subsidiary of such an “investment company.”

5.2 Loan Documents

The execution, delivery and performance by each Credit Party of the Loan Documents to which it is a party, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby, including the grants of Liens and security interests in the Collateral, (i) have been duly authorized by all requisite action of the appropriate Credit Party and have been duly executed and delivered by or on behalf of such Credit Party; (ii) do not violate any provisions of (A) applicable law, statute, rule, regulation, ordinance or tariff, (B) any order of any Governmental Authority binding on any Credit Party or any of the Credit Parties’ respective properties the effect of which would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, or (C) the certificate of incorporation or bylaws (or any other equivalent governing agreement or document) of each Credit Party, or any agreement between any Credit Party and its shareholders, members, partners or equity owners or among any such shareholders, members, partners or equity owners; (iii) are not in conflict with, and do not result in a breach or default of or constitute an Event of Default, or an event, fact, condition, breach, Default or Event of Default under, any indenture, agreement or other instrument to which any Credit Party is a party, or by which the properties or assets of any Credit Party are bound, the effect of which would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; (iv) except as set forth therein, will not result in the creation or imposition of any Lien of any nature upon any of the properties or assets of any Credit Party, and (v) do not require the consent, approval or authorization of, or filing, registration or qualification with, any Governmental Authority or Credit Party unless otherwise obtained. When executed and delivered, each of the Loan Documents to which each Credit Party is a party will constitute the legal, valid and binding obligation of the respective Credit Party, enforceable against such Credit Party in accordance with its terms.

5.3 Subsidiaries, Capitalization and Ownership Interests

As of the date of this Agreement, each Credit Party has no Subsidiaries other than those Persons listed as Subsidiaries on Schedule 5.3, each of which is a Credit Party. Schedule 5.3 also states the authorized and issued capitalization of each Credit Party and each subsidiary, the number and class of equity securities and/or ownership, voting or partnership interests issued and outstanding of Borrower and the record and beneficial owners thereof (including options, warrants and other rights to acquire any of the foregoing). No options, warrants or other rights to acquire equity securities and/or ownership, voting or partnership interests of Borrower have any call, put or other features that would obligate Borrower to declare or pay cash dividends, make cash distributions or otherwise make any cash payment to any Person. The ownership interests of each Credit Party that is a limited partnership or a limited liability company are certificated, the documents relating to such interests expressly state that the interests are governed by Article 8 of the Uniform Commercial Code, and the interests are not held in a securities account. The outstanding equity securities and/or ownership, voting or partnership interests of each Credit Party have been duly authorized and validly issued and are fully paid and nonassessable, and each Person listed on Schedule 5.3 owns beneficially and of record all of the equity securities and/or ownership, voting or membership interests it is listed as owning free and clear of any Liens other than Liens created by the Loan Documents. Except as listed on Schedule 5.3, no Credit Party owns an interest in or participates or engages in any joint venture, partnership or similar arrangements with any Persons.

5.4 Properties

Each Borrower (i) is the sole owner and has good, valid and marketable title to, or a valid leasehold interest in, all of its material properties and assets, including the Collateral, whether personal or real, subject to no transfer restrictions or Liens of any kind except for Permitted Liens, and (ii) is in compliance in all material respects with each lease to which it is a party or otherwise bound except for such noncompliance as would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Schedule 5.4 lists all real properties (and their locations) owned or leased by or to each Borrower. Each Borrower enjoys peaceful and undisturbed possession under all such leases and such leases are all the leases necessary for the operation of such properties and assets, are valid and subsisting and are in full force and effect.

5.5 Other Agreements

No Credit Party is (i) a party to any judgment, order or decree or any agreement, document or instrument, or subject to any restriction, which would materially adversely affect its ability to execute and deliver, or perform under, any Loan Document or to pay the Obligations, (ii) in default in the performance, observance or fulfillment of any obligation, covenant or condition contained in any agreement, document or instrument to which it is a party or to which any of its properties or assets are subject, which default, if not remedied within any applicable grace or cure period would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, nor is there any event, fact, condition or circumstance which, with notice or passage of time or both; would constitute or result in a conflict, breach, default or event of default under, any of the foregoing which, if not remedied within any applicable grace or cure period would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; or (iii) a party or subject to any agreement, document or instrument with respect to, or obligation to pay any, service or management fee to a third party (other than Affiliates) with respect to, the ownership, operation, leasing or performance of any of its business or any facility, nor is there any manager with respect to any such facility.

5.6 Litigation

Except as set forth on Schedule 5.6, there is no action, suit, proceeding or investigation pending or, to any Credit Party’s knowledge, threatened against a Credit Party that (i) could reasonably be expected to affect the validity of any of the Loan Documents or the right of a Borrower to enter into any Loan Document or to consummate the transactions contemplated thereby or (ii) could reasonably be expected to be or have, either individually or in the aggregate, any Material Adverse Change or Material Adverse Effect. No Credit Party is a party or subject to any order, writ, injunction, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. There is no action, suit, proceeding or investigation initiated with respect to any Credit Party currently pending.

5.7 Labor Matters

As of the Closing Date, there are no strikes, slowdowns, work stoppages, lockouts, grievances, other collective bargaining or labor related disputes pending or, to any Borrower’s knowledge, threatened against any Credit Party. Hours worked and payments made to the employees of the Credit Parties have not been in violation of the Fair Labor Standards Act or any other applicable Law dealing with such matters. No Credit Party is engaged in unfair labor practice, and there is no unfair labor practice, complaint or complaint of employment discrimination pending against any Credit Party or threatened against any Credit Party. All payments due from the Credit Parties, or for which any claim may be made against any of them, on account of wages and employee and retiree health and welfare insurance and other benefits have been paid or accrued as a liability on their books, as the case may be. Each Credit Party and each of its predecessors and Affiliates has complied and is in compliance with all Laws pertaining to any terms or conditions of employment, including Laws governing or regarding employment standards, labor relations, application and employee background checking, immigration, the payment of wages or other compensation, including overtime compensation, employee leave, employee benefits, the classification of workers as employees and independent contractors, employment discrimination and harassment and retaliation, pay equity, occupational safety and health, workers’ compensation, and any and all other Laws governing or pertaining to the terms and conditions of employment. The provisions of any collective agreement are consistent with applicable industry standards respecting wage rates, benefits and working rules. The Borrower is not in breach of any provision of any collective agreement that it is a party to. The consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents will not give rise to a right of termination or right of renegotiation on the part of any union under any collective bargaining agreement to which it is a party or by which it is bound.

5.8 Compliance with Environmental Requirements; No Hazardous Substances

Except in each case as set forth on Schedule 5.8:

(a) no investigation, proceeding, directive, notice, notification, demand, request for information, citation, summons, complaint or order has been issued, no complaint has been filed, no penalty has been assessed and no investigation or review is pending, or to such Borrower’s knowledge, threatened by any Governmental Authority or other Person with respect to any (i) alleged violation by any Credit Party of any Environmental Law, (ii) alleged failure by any Credit Party to have any Permits required in connection with the conduct of its business or to comply with the terms and conditions thereof, (iii) any generation, treatment, storage, recycling, transportation or disposal of any Hazardous Substances, or (iv) release of Hazardous Substances;

No Credit Party has any material obligations or liabilities of any kind not disclosed in such financial information or statements, and since the date of the most recent financial statements submitted to Lender, there has not occurred any Material Adverse Change, Material Adverse Effect or, to Borrower’s knowledge, any other event or condition that would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

5.11 Compliance with Law

Each Borrower (i) is in substantial compliance with all laws, statutes, rules, regulations, ordinances and tariffs of any Governmental Authority applicable to such Borrower and/or such Borrower’s business, assets or operations, including, without limitation, ERISA, and (ii) is not in violation of any order of any Governmental Authority or other board or tribunal, in each case except where noncompliance or violation would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. There is no event, fact, condition or circumstance which, with notice or passage of time, or both, would constitute or result in any noncompliance with, or any violation of, any of the foregoing, in each case except where noncompliance or violation would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No Borrower has received any notice that it is not in compliance in any respect with any of the requirements of any of the foregoing.

With respect to each Credit Party, there exists no event described in Section 4043 of ERISA, excluding Subsections 4043(b)(2) and 4043(b)(3) thereof, for which the thirty (30) day notice period contained in 12 C.F.R. § 26153 has not been waived. Each ERISA Plan (and the related trusts and funding agreements) complies in form and in operation with, has been administered in compliance with, and the terms of each ERISA Plan satisfy, the applicable requirements of ERISA and the Code in all material respects. Each ERISA Plan which is intended to be qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code is so qualified, and the United States Internal Revenue Service has issued a favorable determination letter with respect to each such ERISA Plan which may be relied on currently. No Credit Party has incurred liability for any material excise tax under any of Sections 4971 through 5000 of the Code.

5.12 Intellectual Property

Each Credit Party owns, is licensed to use or otherwise has the right to use, all Intellectual Property that is material to the condition (financial or other), business or operations of such Credit Party. All Intellectual Property existing as of the Closing Date which is issued, registered or pending with any United States or foreign Governmental Authority (including, without limitation, any and all applications for the registration of any Intellectual Property with any such United States or foreign Governmental Authority) and all licenses under which any Borrower is the licensee of any such registered Intellectual Property (or any such application for the registration of Intellectual Property) owned by another Person are set forth on Schedule 5.12. Such Schedule 5.12 indicates in each case whether such registered Intellectual Property (or application therefor) is owned or licensed by such Credit Party, and in the case of any such licensed registered Intellectual Property (or application therefor), lists the name and address of the licensor and the name and date of the agreement pursuant to which such item of Intellectual Property is licensed and whether or not such license is an exclusive license and indicates whether there are any purported restrictions in such license on the ability to such Credit Party to grant a security interest in and/or to transfer any of its rights as a licensee under such license. Except as indicated on Schedule 5.12, the applicable Credit Party is the sole and exclusive owner of the entire and unencumbered right, title and interest in and to each such registered Intellectual Property (or application therefor) purported to be owned by such Credit Party, free and clear of any Liens and/or licenses in favor of third parties or agreements or covenants not to xxx such third parties for infringement. All registered Intellectual Property of each Credit Party is duly and properly registered, filed or issued in the appropriate office and jurisdictions for such registrations, filings or issuances, except where the failure to do so would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No Credit Party is party to, nor bound by, any material license or other agreement with respect to which any Credit Party is the licensee that prohibits or otherwise restricts such Credit Party from granting a security interest in such Borrower’s interest in such license or agreement or other property. To such Borrower’s knowledge, each Credit Party conducts its business without infringement or claim of infringement of any Intellectual Property rights of others and there is no infringement or claim of infringement by others of any Intellectual Property rights of any Credit Party, which infringement or claim of infringement could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

5.13 Licenses and Permits

Each Credit Party is in substantial compliance with and has all Permits necessary or required by applicable law or Governmental Authority for the operation of its businesses except where the failure to be in compliance would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. All of the foregoing are in full force and effect and not in known conflict with the rights of others except where the failure to be in compliance would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Borrower is not (i) in breach of or default under the provisions of any of the foregoing, nor is there any event, fact, condition or circumstance which, with notice or passage of time or both, would constitute or result in a conflict, breach, Default or Event of Default under, any of the foregoing which, if not remedied within any applicable grace or cure period would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, (ii) a party to or subject to any agreement, instrument or restriction that is so unusual or burdensome that it might have a Material Adverse Effect.

5.14 Disclosure

No Loan Document nor any other agreement, document, certificate, or statement furnished to Lender by or on behalf of any Credit Party in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents, when taken as a whole contains any untrue statement of material fact or omits to state any fact necessary to make the statements therein not materially misleading in light of current circumstances. All financial projections delivered to Lender by any Credit Party (or their agents) have been prepared on the basis of the assumptions stated therein. Such projections represent each Credit Party’s best estimate of such Credit Party’s future financial performance and such assumptions are believed by such Credit Party to be fair and reasonable in light of current business conditions; provided, however, that no Credit Party can give any assurance that such projections will be attained.

5.15 Existing Indebtedness; Investments, Guarantees and Certain Contracts

Except as permitted by the Loan Documents, each Borrower (i) has no outstanding Indebtedness other than Permitted Indebtedness, (ii) is not subject or party to any mortgage, note, indenture, indemnity or guarantee of, with respect to or evidencing any Indebtedness of any other Person other than in connection with a Permitted Lien, or (iii) does not own or hold any equity or long-term debt investments in, and does not have any outstanding advances to or any outstanding guarantees for the obligations of, or any outstanding borrowings from, any Person. Borrower has performed all material obligations required to be performed by such Borrower pursuant to or connection with its outstanding Indebtedness and the items permitted by the Loan Documents and there has occurred no breach, default or event of default under any document evidencing any such items or any fact, circumstance, condition or event which, with the giving of notice or passage of time or both, would constitute or result in a breach, default or event of default thereunder.

During the preceding five years, Borrower has not conducted business under or used any name (whether corporate, partnership or assumed) other than as shown on Schedule 5.18. Borrower is the sole owner of all of its names listed on Schedule 5.18, and any and all business done and invoices issued in such names are such Borrower’s sales, business and invoices. Each Borrower maintains its places of business and chief executive offices only at the locations set forth on Schedule 5.18. Schedule 5.18 also identifies all of the addresses (including warehouses) at which any of the Collateral is located or books and records of Borrowers regarding any Collateral are kept and identifying which Collateral and which books and records are kept at each location, the nature of such location (e.g., leased business location operated by Borrower(s), third party warehouse, consignment location, processor location, etc.) and the name and address of the third party owning and/or operating such location. No Collateral and no books and records in connection therewith or in any way relating thereto or that evidence the Collateral are located at any other location. All of the Collateral is and shall remain located only in the continental United States.

Schedule 5.19 sets forth, with respect to each real estate lease agreement to which any Borrower is a party (as a lessee) as of the Closing Date, the address of the subject property and the annual rental (or, where applicable, a general description of the method of computing the annual rental). The consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents will not give rise to a right of termination in favor of any party to any Material Contract (other than any Credit Party), except for such Material Contracts the noncompliance with which would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

5.20 Non-Subordination

The Obligations are not subordinated in any way to any other obligations of any Borrower or to the rights of any other Person.

6.10 Use of Proceeds

The Borrowers shall use the proceeds of Revolving Loans solely for (a) to repay existing indebtedness of Borrowers, (b) transaction fees incurred in connection with the Loan Documents, and (c) for working capital needs of Borrowers and their Subsidiaries.

Each Borrower hereby authorizes Lender to file UCC-1 Financing Statements with respect to the Collateral, and any amendments or continuations relating thereto, without the signature of any Borrower and hereby ratifies, confirms and consents to any such filings made by Lender prior to the date hereof. In addition to the UCC financing statements references in Section 2.10(k)(F), each Borrower hereby agrees to execute any additional documents or financing statements which Lender deems necessary in its reasonable discretion in order to evidence Lender’s security interest in the Collateral. No Borrower shall allow any financing statement (other than that filed by or on behalf of Lender and other than Permitted Liens) to be on file in any public office covering any Collateral or the proceeds thereof. Pursuant to Section 2.11, Lender has full power of attorney to execute, deliver, file, register and/or record in the name of each Borrower and financing statements, schedules, assignments, instruments, and documents necessary to perfect Lender’s security interest in or lien on any Collateral. If necessary or advisable beyond that power of attorney, and at the reasonable request of Lender upon reasonable notice, a Borrower shall (i) execute, obtain, deliver, file, register and/or record any and all financing statements, continuation statements, stock powers, instruments and other documents, or cause the execution, filing, registration, recording or deliver of any and all of the foregoing, that are necessary or required under law or otherwise or reasonably requested by Lender to be executed, filed, registered, obtained, delivered or recorded to create, maintain, perfect, preserve, validate or otherwise protect the pledge of the Collateral to Lender and Lender’s perfected first priority Lien on the Collateral (and such Borrower irrevocably grants Lender the right, at Lender’s option, to file any or all of the foregoing) and (ii) defend the Collateral and Lender’s perfected first priority Lien thereon against all claims and demands of all Persons at any time claiming the same or any interest therein adverse to Lender, and pay all reasonable costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable in-house documentation and diligence fees and reasonable legal expenses and reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) in connection with such defense, which may at Lender’s discretion be added to the Obligations and increase the principal amount outstanding hereunder.

6.12 Right of First Refusal

If at any time any Borrower receives from a third party an offer, term sheet or commitment or makes a proposal accepted by any Person (each, an “Offer”) which provides for any type of financing for any Borrower or any of its then current subsidiaries, such Borrower shall notify Lender of the Offer in writing (including all material terms of the Offer) and Lender shall have thirty (30) calendar days after Receipt of such notice (the “Option Period”) to agree to provide financing in the place of such Person upon terms and conditions no less favorable to such Borrower as set forth in the Offer, together with such additional terms as may generally be standard or reasonable in similar financings. Lender shall notify such Borrower in writing of Lender’s acceptance of the Offer pursuant hereto (the “Acceptance Notice”), in which case such Borrower shall obtain such financing from Lender and shall not accept the Offer from such other Person. If no Acceptance Notice has been Received from Lender within the Option Period, Borrower may consummate the Offer with the other Person on the terms and conditions set forth in the Offer (the “Transaction”); provided, however, that none of the foregoing or any failure by Lender to issue an Acceptance Notice shall be construed as a waiver of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of any of the Loan Documents. If the Transaction is not consummated on the terms set forth in the Offer or with the Person providing the Offer during the ninety (90) calendar day period following the expiration of the Option Period, such Borrower shall not be permitted to consummate the Transaction without again complying with this Section 6.12. For purposes of this Section 6.12, “Lender” shall include SCM Specialty Finance Opportunities Fund, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, and any of its parents, subsidiaries or Affiliates.

6.13 Taxes and Other Charges

All payments and reimbursements to Lender made under any Loan Document shall be free and clear of and without deduction for all taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, assessments, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect thereto of any nature whatsoever, excluding taxes to the extent imposed on Lender’s net income. If any Borrower shall be required by law to deduct any such amounts from or in respect of any sum payable under any Loan Document to Lender, then the sum payable to Lender shall be increased as may be necessary so that, after making all required deductions, Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made. Notwithstanding any other provision of any Loan Document, if at any time after the Closing (i) any change in any applicable law, regulation, treaty or directive or in the interpretation or application thereof, (ii) any new law, regulation, treaty or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority (A) subjects Lender to any tax, levy, impost, deduction, assessment, charge or withholding of any kind whatsoever with respect to any Loan Document, or changes the basis of taxation of payments to Lender of any amount payable thereunder (except for net income taxes, or franchise taxes imposed in lieu of net income taxes, imposed generally by federal, state or local taxing authorities with respect to interest or facility fees or other fees payable hereunder or changes in the rate of tax on the overall net income of Lender), or (B) imposes on Lender any other condition or increased cost in connection with the transactions contemplated thereby or participations therein; and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to Lender of making or continuing any Loan hereunder or to reduce any amount receivable hereunder, then, in any such case, the Borrowers shall promptly pay to Lender any additional amounts necessary to compensate Lender, on an after-tax basis, for such additional cost or reduced amount as determined by Lender. If Lender becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this Section 6.13 it shall promptly notify the Borrowers of the event by reason of which Lender has become so entitled, and each such notice of additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section 6.13 submitted by Lender to the Borrowers shall, absent manifest error, be final, conclusive and binding for all purposes.

XI.

EFFECTIVE DATE AND TERMINATION

11.1 Effectiveness and Termination

(a) Termination by Lender. Subject to Lender’s right to terminate and cease making Advances upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect until the full performance and indefeasible payment in cash of all Obligations (other than indemnity obligations with respect to which no claim has been made), unless terminated sooner as provided in this Section 11.1.

(b) Termination by Borrower. Borrowers may terminate this Agreement at any time on or before upon not less than thirty (30) calendar days’ prior written notice to Lender and upon full performance and indefeasible payment in full in cash of all Obligations (other than indemnity obligations with respect to which no claim has been made) on or prior to such 30^th calendar day after Receipt by Lender of such written notice. Borrowers may elect to terminate this Agreement in its entirety only. No section of this Agreement or type of Loan available hereunder may be terminated singly.

(c) Effectiveness of Termination. All of the Obligations (other than indemnity obligations with respect to which no claim has been made) shall be immediately due and payable upon the Termination Date. All undertakings, agreements, covenants, warranties and representations of Borrowers contained in the Loan Documents shall survive any such termination and Lender shall retain its Liens in the Collateral and Lender shall retain all of its rights and remedies under the Loan Documents notwithstanding such termination until all Obligations have been irrevocably discharged or paid, in full, in immediately available funds, including, without limitation, all Obligations under Section 3.4 and the terms of any fee letter or other agreements, if any, resulting from such termination. Notwithstanding the foregoing or the payment in full of the Obligations, Lender shall not be required to terminate its Liens in the Collateral unless, with respect to any loss or damage Lender may incur as a result of dishonored checks or other items of payment received by Lender from Borrowers or any Account Debtor and applied to the Obligations, Lender shall, at its option, (i) have received a written agreement satisfactory to Lender, executed by Borrowers and by any Person whose loans or other advances to Borrowers are used in whole or in part to satisfy the Obligations, indemnifying Lender from any such loss or damage or (ii) have retained cash Collateral or other Collateral for such period of time as Lender, in its discretion, may deem necessary to protect Lender from any such loss or damage.

11.2 Survival

All obligations, covenants, agreements, representations, warranties, waivers and indemnities made by Borrowers in any Loan Document shall survive the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents, the Closing, the making of the Advances and any termination of this Agreement until all Obligations (other than indemnity obligations with respect to which no claim has been made) are fully performed and indefeasibly paid in full in cash. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence of this Section 11.2, the obligations and provisions of Article III and Sections 10.1, 13.1, 13.3, 13.4, 13.7 and 13.12 shall survive termination of the Loan Documents and any payment, in full or in part, of the then-outstanding Obligations.

XII.

ASSIGNMENTS AND PARTICIPATIONS

12.1 Assignments

Lender may at any time assign the Lender’s rights and obligations hereunder and under all other Loan Documents to one or more Eligible Assignees. Upon Receipt of notice of such assignment, Borrowers shall treat the assignee as the Lender for all purposes hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. Each Eligible Assignee shall have all of the rights and benefits with respect to the Obligations, Collateral and/or Loan Documents held by it as fully as if the original holder thereof; provided that, Borrowers shall not be obligated to pay under this Agreement to any Eligible Assignee any sum in excess of the sum which Borrowers would have been obligated to pay to Lender had such assignment not been effected. Notwithstanding any other provision of a Loan Document, Lender may disclose to any Eligible Assignee all information, reports, financial statements, certificates and documents obtained under any provision of any Loan Document. Borrowers may not offset any amounts owing to Borrowers by an Eligible Assignee from any amounts owed by Borrowers to such Eligible Assignee pursuant to this Agreement.

12.2 Participations

Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, Borrowers, sell to one or more Persons participating interests in its Loan, commitments or other interests hereunder (any such Person, a “Participant”). Notwithstanding any other provision of a Loan Document, Lender may disclose to any Participant all information, reports, financial statements, certificates and documents obtained under any provision of any Loan Document. Subject to Section 12.3, in the event of a sale by Lender of a participating interest to a Participant, (i) Borrowers shall continue to deal solely and directly with Lender in connection with Lender’s rights and obligations hereunder, and (ii) all amounts payable by Borrowers shall be determined as if Lender had not sold such participation and shall be paid directly to Lender. Borrowers agree that if amounts outstanding under this Agreement are due and payable (as a result of acceleration or otherwise), each Participant shall be deemed to have the right of set-off in respect of its participating interest in amounts owing under this Agreement to the same extent as if the amount of its participating interest were owing directly to it as a Lender under this Agreement.

12.3 Defaulting Participants

Lender may from time to time notify Borrowers of the participations sold by Lender hereunder and the share of each Participant’s interest in the Loan (such notification, as it may be amended from time to time, is referred to herein as a “Participation Notice”). Following Receipt by Borrowers of a Participation Notice, (i) it shall be the responsibility of the Participant identified in the Participation Notice to fund each Advance in an amount equal to such Participant’s share of each Advance as set forth in the Participation Notice, (ii) Borrowers will look solely to Participant identified in the Participation Notice for the funding of such portion of each Advance as is equal to the Participant’s share of such Advance as set forth in the Participation Notice, and (iii) notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, Lender shall not be obligated to fund any portion of an Advance which is the responsibility of a Participant as set forth in a Participation Notice. Following Receipt by Borrowers of a Participation Notice, any Participant which shall fail to make any Advance or other credit accommodation, disbursement, settlement or reimbursement required pursuant to the terms of any Loan Document, for so long as such failure shall remain in existence and uncured, shall be deemed to be a “Defaulting Participant.” After a Participant becomes a Defaulting Participant, and the circumstances causing such status shall not have been cured or waived, each of the Borrowers and Lender may, at their respective option, notify such Defaulting Participant of such Person’s intention to obtain a replacement Participant (“Replacement Participant”) for the Defaulting Participant, which Replacement Participant shall be an Eligible Assignee. In the event Borrowers or Lender, as applicable, obtain a Replacement Participant, the Borrowers shall look to the Replacement Participant rather than the Defaulting Participant for the funding of future Advances in an amount equal to the Defaulting Participant’s share of each Advance set forth in the Participation Notice. Any Replacement Participant shall not be responsible for, and such Replacement Participant’s interest in the Loan shall not be subject to, any liabilities of the Defaulting Participant to Borrowers accruing prior to the date of the transfer of the participation interest. Borrowers may not offset any amounts owing to Borrowers by the Defaulting Participant from any amounts owed by Borrowers to Lender pursuant to this Agreement.

12.4 Definitions

For purposes of this Article XII, the following terms shall have the following meanings:

“Eligible Assignee” shall mean (a) Lender, (b) an Affiliate of Lender, (c) an Approved Fund, and (d) any other Person (other than a natural person) approved by Lender; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, “Eligible Assignee” shall not include Borrower or any of Borrower’s Affiliates.

“Approved Fund” means any (a) investment company, finance company, fund, trust, securitization vehicle or conduit that is (or will be) engaged in making, purchasing, holding or otherwise investing in commercial loans and similar extensions of credit in the ordinary course of business or (b) any Person (other than a natural person) which temporarily warehouses loans for any Lender or any entity described in the preceding clause (a) and that, with respect to each of the preceding clauses (a) and (b), is administered or managed by (i) Lender, (ii) an Affiliate of Lender, or (iii) a Person (other than a natural person) or an Affiliate of a Person (other than a natural person) that administers or manages Lender.

XIII.

MISCELLANEOUS

13.1 Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Service of Process; Venue

The Loan Documents shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal substantive laws of the State of New York without giving effect to its choice of law provisions. Any judicial proceeding against Borrower with respect to the Obligations, any Loan Documents or any related agreement may be brought in any federal or state court of competent jurisdiction located in the State of New York. By execution and delivery of each Loan Document to which it is a party, each of Borrower and Lender (i) accepts the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts and irrevocably agrees to be bound by any judgment rendered thereby, (ii) waives personal service of process, (iii) agrees that service of process upon it may be made by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, pursuant to Section 13.5, hereof, (iv) waives any objection to jurisdiction and venue of any action instituted hereunder and agrees not to assert any defense based on lack of jurisdiction, venue or convenience, and (v) agrees that this loan was made in New York, that Lender has accepted in New York the Loan Documents executed by Borrower and has disbursed Advances under the Loan Documents in New York. Nothing shall affect the right of Lender to serve process in any manner permitted by law or shall limit the right of Lender to bring proceedings against Borrower in the courts of any other jurisdiction having jurisdiction. Any judicial proceedings against Lender involving, directly or indirectly, the Obligations, any Loan Document or any related agreement shall be brought only in a federal or state court located in the State of New York. All parties acknowledge that they participated in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement and that, accordingly, no party shall move or petition a court construing this Agreement to construe it more stringently against one party than against any other.

13.2 Successors and Assigns; Participants; New Lenders

The Loan Documents shall inure to the benefit of Lender, Transferees and all future holders of any Revolving Loan, the Obligations and/or any of the Collateral, and each of their respective successors and assigns. Each Loan Document shall be binding upon the Persons other than Lender that are parties thereto and their respective successors and assigns, and no such Person may assign, delegate or transfer any Loan Document or any of its rights or obligations thereunder without the prior written consent of Lender. No rights are intended to be created under any Loan Document for the benefit of any Person who is not a party to such Loan Document. Nothing contained in any Loan Document shall be construed as a delegation to Lender of any other Person’s duty of performance. BORROWERS ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT LENDER AT ANY TIME AND FROM TIME TO TIME MAY SELL, ASSIGN OR GRANT PARTICIPATING INTERESTS IN OR TRANSFER ALL OR ANY PART OF ITS RIGHTS OR OBLIGATIONS UNDER ANY LOAN DOCUMENT, THE OBLIGATIONS AND/OR THE COLLATERAL TO OTHER PERSONS (EACH SUCH TRANSFEREE, ASSIGNEE OR PURCHASER, A “TRANSFEREE”).

13.3 Revival of Obligations

To the extent that any payment made or received with respect to the Obligations is subsequently invalidated, determined to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to a trustee, debtor in possession, receiver, custodian or any other Person under any Debtor Relief Law, common law or equitable cause or any other law, then the Obligations intended to be satisfied by such payment (whether or not previously terminated) shall be revived and shall continue as if such payment had not been received by Lender. Any payments received with respect to such revived Obligations shall be credited and applied in such manner and order, as Lender shall decide in its Permitted Discretion.

13.4 Indemnity

Borrower shall indemnify Lender, its Affiliates and its and their respective managers, members, officers, employee, Affiliates, agents, representatives, successors, assigns, accountants and attorneys (collectively, the “Indemnified Persons”) from and against any and all liability, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, reasonable out-of-pocket costs, expenses and disbursements of any kind of nature whatsoever (including, without limitation, reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel, expert witness fees, and reasonable in-house documentation and diligence fees and reasonable legal expenses) which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnified Person with respect to or arising out of, or in any way relating to any litigation, proceeding or investigation instituted or conducted by any Person with respect to any aspect of, or any transaction contemplated by or referred to in, or any matter related to, any Loan Document or any agreement, document or transaction contemplated thereby, whether or not such Indemnified Person is a party thereto, except to the extent that any of the foregoing (i) arises out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of any Indemnified Person or (ii) arises out of a dispute between or among any Indemnified Persons. If any Indemnified Person uses in-house counsel for any purpose for which any Borrower is responsible to pay or indemnify, each Borrower expressly agrees that its indemnification obligations include reasonable charges for such work commensurate with the fees that would otherwise be charged by outside legal counsel selected by Indemnified Person in its Permitted Discretion for the work performed. Lender agrees to give Borrowers reasonable notice of any event of which Lender becomes aware for which indemnification may be required under this Section 13.4, and Lender may elect (but is not obligated) to direct the defense thereof, provided that the selection of counsel shall be subject to Borrowers’ consent which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Any Indemnified Person may in its reasonable discretion, take such actions, as it deems necessary and appropriate to investigate, defend or settle any event or take other remedial or corrective actions with respect thereto as may be necessary for the protection of such Indemnified Person or the Collateral. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any insurer agrees to undertake the defense of an event (an “Insured Event”), Lender agrees not to exercise its right to select counsel to defend the event if that would cause any Borrowers’ insurer to deny coverage; provided, however, that Lender reserves the right to retain counsel to represent any Indemnified Person with respect to an Insured Event at its sole cost and expense. To the extent that Lender obtains recovery from a third party other than an Indemnified Person of any of the amounts that any Borrower has paid to Lender pursuant to the indemnity set forth in this Section 13.4, then Lender shall promptly pay to such Borrower the amount of such recovery.

13.5 Notice

Any notice or request under any Loan Document shall be given to any party to this Agreement at such party’s address set forth beneath its signature on the signature page to this Agreement, or at such other address as such party may hereafter specify in a notice given in the manner required under this Section 13.5. Any notice or request hereunder shall be given only by, and shall be deemed to have been received upon (each, a “Receipt”): (i) registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, on the date on which such received as indicated in such return receipt, (ii) delivery by a nationally recognized overnight courier, one (1) Business Day after deposit with such courier, or (iii) facsimile or electronic transmission, in each case upon telephone or further electronic communication from the recipient acknowledging receipt (whether automatic or manual from recipient), as applicable. Any notice or request under any Loan Document or otherwise pursuant to any applicable law which is given to one Borrower will be deemed to be notice (or, if applicable, a request) to each Borrower.

13.6 Severability; Captions; Counterparts; Facsimile or other Electronic Signatures

If any provision of any Loan Document is adjudicated to be invalid under applicable laws or regulations, such provision shall be inapplicable to the extent of such invalidity without affecting the validity or enforceability of the remainder of the Loan Documents which shall be given effect so far as possible. The captions in the Loan Documents are intended for convenience and reference only and shall not affect the meaning or interpretation of the Loan Documents. The Loan Documents may be executed in one or more counterparts (which taken together, as applicable, shall constitute one and the same instrument) and by facsimile or other electronic transmission, which facsimile or other electronic signatures shall be considered original executed counterparts. Each party to this Agreement agrees that it will be bound by its own facsimile or other electronic signature and that it accepts the facsimile or other electronic signature of each other party.

13.7 Expenses

Borrowers shall pay, whether or not the Closing occurs, all usual and customary costs and expenses incurred by Lender and/or its Affiliates, including, without limitation, documentation and diligence fees and expenses, all search, audit, appraisal, recording reasonable professional and filing fees and expenses and all other actual out-of-pocket charges and expenses (including, without limitation, UCC and judgment and tax lien searches and UCC filings and fees for post-Closing UCC and judgment and tax lien searches and audit expenses), and reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, incurred (i) in any effort to enforce, protect or collect payment of any Obligation or to enforce any Loan Document or any related agreement, document or instruments (ii) in connection with entering into, negotiating, preparing, reviewing and executing the Loan Documents and/or any related agreements, documents or instruments, (iii) arising in any way out of administration of the Obligations, (iv) in connection with instituting, maintaining, preserving, enforcing and/or foreclosing on Lender’s Liens in any of the Collateral or securities pledged under the Loan Documents, whether through judicial proceedings or otherwise, (v) in defending or prosecuting any actions, claims or proceedings arising out of or relating to Lender’s transactions with Borrower, (vi) in seeking, obtaining or receiving any advice with respect to its rights and obligations under any Loan Document and any related agreement, document or instrument, (vii) in connection with any modification, restatement, supplement, amendment, waiver or extension of any Loan Document and/or any related agreement, document or instrument and/or (viii) in connection with all actions, visits, audits and inspections undertaken by Lender or its Affiliates pursuant to the Loan Documents, subject to the provisions of Section 6.7 hereof. In addition, Borrowers shall pay Lender a wire fee of $25.00 with respect to each domestic wire transfer of funds by Lender to or for the benefit of Borrower. All of the foregoing shall be charged to Borrowers’ account and shall be part of the Obligations. If Lender or any of its Affiliates uses in-house counsel for any purpose under any Loan Document for which Borrowers are responsible to pay or indemnify, Borrowers expressly agree that their Obligations include reasonable charges for such work commensurate with the fees that would otherwise be charged by outside legal counsel selected by Lender or such Affiliate in its Permitted Discretion for the work performed. Without limiting the foregoing, Borrowers shall pay all taxes (other than taxes based upon or measured by Lender’s income or revenues or any personal property tax), if any, in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Loan Documents and the filing and/or recording of any documents and/or financing statements.

13.8 Entire Agreement

This Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which Borrowers are parties constitute the entire agreement between Borrower and Lender with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof, and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, if any, relating to the subject matter hereof or thereof. Any promises, representations, warranties or guarantees not herein contained and hereafter made shall have no force and effect unless in writing signed by Borrowers and Lender, provided, however, additional covenants, representations, warranties and guarantees will be enforceable if executed by the party against whom enforcement is sought. No provision of this Agreement may be changed, modified, amended, restated, waived, supplemented, discharged, canceled or terminated orally or by any course of dealing or in any other manner other than by an agreement in writing signed by Lender and Borrowers. Each party hereto acknowledges that it has been advised by counsel in connection with the negotiation and execution of this Agreement and is not relying upon oral representations or statements inconsistent with the terms and provisions hereof.

13.9 Lender Approvals

Unless expressly provided herein to the contrary, any approval, consent, waiver or satisfaction of Lender with respect to any matter that is subject of any Loan Document may be granted or withheld by Lender in its sole and absolute discretion.

13.10 Confidentiality and Publicity

Borrower agrees, and agrees to cause each of its Affiliates, (i) not to transmit or disclose provisions of any Loan Documents to any Person (other than to Borrower’s advisors and officers on a need-to-know basis) without Lender’s prior written consent, which may be withheld in its sole discretion, and (ii) to inform all such Persons of the confidential nature of the Loan Documents and to direct them not to disclose the same to any other Person and to require each of them to be bound by these provisions. Lender reserves the right to review and approve all materials that Borrower or any of its Affiliates prepares that contain Lender’s name or describe or refer to any Loan Document, any of the terms thereof or any of the transactions contemplated thereby. Borrower shall not, and shall not permit any of its Affiliates to, use Lender’s name (or the name of any of Lender’s Affiliates) in connection with any of its business operations. Nothing contained in any Loan Documents is intended to permit or authorize Borrower or any of its Affiliates to contract on behalf of Lender. Further, Borrower hereby agrees that Lender or any Affiliate of Lender may (i) disclose a general description of transactions arising under the Loan Documents for advertising, marketing or other similar purposes to the extent such information is publicly available and, if not publicly available, with Borrowers’ prior approval and (ii) use any Borrowers’ or any Guarantor’s name, logo or other indicia germane to such party in connection with such advertising, marketing or other similar purposes. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, Lender acknowledges that Borrower and its Affiliates, may disclose such information concerning the transaction(s) as contemplated by this Agreement, including terms or provisions of any Loan Documents, as may be necessary to fully comply with all public reporting requirements as promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission including but not limited to any 8-K reports.

13.11 USA Patriot Act Notification

Lender hereby notifies each Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record certain information and documentation that identifies any Borrower, which information includes the name and address of any Borrower and such other information that will allow Lender to identify any Borrower in accordance with the USA PATRIOT Act.

13.12 Release of Lender

Notwithstanding any other provision of any Loan Document, each Borrower voluntarily, knowingly, unconditionally and irrevocably, with specific and express intent, for and on behalf of itself, its managers, members, directors, officers, employees, stockholders, Affiliates, agents, representatives, accountants, attorneys, successors and assigns and their respective Affiliates (collectively, the “Releasing Parties”), (i) hereby fully and completely releases and forever discharges the Indemnified Persons and any other Person or insurer which may be responsible or liable for the acts or omissions of any of the Indemnified Persons, or who may be liable for the injury or damage resulting therefrom (collectively, with the Indemnified Persons, the “Released Parties”), of and from any and all actions, causes of action, damages, claims, obligations, liabilities, costs, expenses and demands of any kind whatsoever, at law or in equity, matured or unmatured, vested or contingent, that any of the Releasing Parties has against any of the Released Parties as of the date of the Closing and (ii) by acceptance of each Advance hereunder fully and completely releases and forever discharges the Released Parties, of and from any and all actions, causes of action, damages, claims, obligations, liabilities, costs, expenses and demands of any kind whatsoever, at law or in equity, matured or unmatured, vested or contingent, that any of the Releasing Parties has against any of the Released Parties as of the date of each such Advance.
