2. LOAN AND TERMS OF PAYMENT.
2.1 Credit Extensions.
(a) Promise to Pay. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ promises to pay to Bank, in lawful money of the United States of America, the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all Credit Extensions made by Bank to Borrower, together with interest on the unpaid principal amount of such Credit Extensions at rates in accordance with the terms hereof.
(b) Advances Under Formula Revolving Line.
(i) Amount. Subject to and upon the terms and conditions of this Agreement, (A) Borrower may request Formula Advances in an aggregate outstanding principal amount not to exceed the lesser of (1) the Formula Revolving Line or (2) the Borrowing Base, in each case less any amounts reserved under the Ancillary Services Sublimit, and (B) amounts borrowed pursuant to this Section 2.1(b) may be repaid and reborrowed at any time prior to the Formula Revolving Maturity Date, at which time all Formula Advances under this Section 2.1(b) shall be immediately due and payable. Borrower may prepay any Formula Advances without penalty or premium. Borrower shall use the proceeds of Formula Advances for working capital and general corporate purposes.
(ii) Form of Request. Whenever Borrower desires a Formula Advance, Borrower will notify Bank (which notice shall be irrevocable) by email (or, if permitted by Bank, through the use of an E-System) no later than 3:30 p.m. Eastern time (2:30 p.m. Eastern time for wire transfers) on the Business Day that the Formula Advance is to be made. Each such notification shall be given by a Loan Advance/Paydown Request Form in substantially the form of Exhibit C. Bank is authorized to make Formula Advances under this Agreement based upon instructions received from an Authorized Officer, or without instructions if in Bank’s discretion such Formula Advances are necessary to meet Obligations which have become due and remain unpaid. Bank shall be entitled to rely on any notice given by a person whom Bank reasonably
2.
believes to be an Authorized Officer, and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall indemnify and hold Bank harmless for any damages, losses, costs, and expenses suffered by Bank as a result of such reliance. Bank will credit the amount of Formula Advances made under this Section 2.1(b) to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’s deposit account.
(iii) Ancillary Services Sublimit. Subject to the availability under the Formula Revolving Line, at any time and from time to time from the date hereof through the Business Day immediately prior to the Formula Revolving Maturity Date, Borrower may request the provision of Ancillary Services from Bank. The aggregate limit of the Ancillary Services shall not exceed the Ancillary Services Sublimit, provided that availability under the Formula Revolving Line shall be reduced by (A) the Letter of Credit Exposure, (B) the aggregate limits of corporate credit card services provided to Borrower, (C) the total amount of any Automated Clearing House processing reserves, (D) the applicable Foreign Exchange Reserve Percentage, and (E) any other reserves taken by Bank in connection with other treasury management services requested by Borrower and approved by Bank. In addition, Bank may, in its sole discretion, charge as Formula Advances any amounts for which Bank becomes liable in connection with the provision of the Ancillary Services. The terms and conditions (including repayment and fees) of such Ancillary Services shall be subject to the terms and conditions of Bank’s standard forms of application and agreement for the applicable Ancillary Services, which Borrower hereby agrees to execute.
(iv) Collateralization of Obligations Extending Beyond Maturity. Borrower shall take such actions as Bank may request to cause its obligations with respect to any Ancillary Services to be secured to Bank’s satisfaction as of the Formula Revolving Maturity Date. If Borrower has not secured to Bank’s satisfaction its obligations with respect to any Ancillary Services by the Formula Revolving Maturity Date, then, effective as of such date, the balance in any of Borrower’s deposit accounts held by Bank and the certificates of deposit or time deposit accounts issued by Bank in Borrower’s name (and any interest paid thereon or proceeds thereof, including any amounts payable upon the maturity or liquidation of such certificates or accounts) shall automatically secure such obligations to the extent of the then continuing or outstanding Ancillary Services. Borrower authorizes Bank to hold such balances in pledge and to decline to honor any drafts thereon or any requests by Borrower or any other Person to pay or otherwise transfer any part of such balances for so long as the applicable Ancillary Services are outstanding or continue.
2.2 Overadvances. If the aggregate amount of the outstanding Formula Advances exceeds the lesser of the Formula Revolving Line or the Borrowing Base at any time, Borrower shall immediately pay to Bank, in Cash, the amount of such excess.
2.3 Interest Rates, Payments, and Calculations.
(a) Interest Rates. Except as set forth in Section 2.3(b), the Formula Advances shall bear interest, on the outstanding daily balance thereof, at a variable annual rate equal to the greater of (A) the Prime Rate then in effect, or (B) five percent (5.00%).
(b) Late Fee; Default Rate. If any payment is not made within 15 days after the date such payment is due, Borrower shall pay Bank a late fee equal to the lesser of (i) 3%
3.
of the amount of such unpaid amount or (ii) the maximum amount permitted to be charged under applicable law. After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, all Obligations shall bear interest, upon notice of such increase given by Bank, at a rate equal to three percentage points above the interest rate applicable immediately prior to the occurrence of the Event of Default (such rate, the “Default Rate”); provided that, from and after the occurrence of any Event of Default described in Section 8.5, such increase shall be automatic and without the requirement of any notice from Bank. In all such events, and notwithstanding the date on which application of the Default Rate is communicated to Borrower, the Default Rate may be accrued (at the election of Bank) from the initial date of any Event of Default until all existing Events of Default are waived in writing in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
(c) Payments. Interest under the Formula Revolving Line shall be due and payable on the first calendar day of each month during the term hereof (“Payment Date”). Borrower authorizes Bank, at Bank’s option, to charge such interest, all Bank Expenses, all Periodic Payments, and any other amounts due and owing in accordance with the terms of this Agreement against any of Borrower’s deposit accounts at Bank or against the Formula Revolving Line, in which case those amounts shall thereafter accrue interest at the rate then applicable hereunder. Any interest not paid when due shall be compounded by becoming a part of the Obligations, and such interest shall thereafter accrue interest at the rate then applicable hereunder.
(d) Computation. In the event that the Prime Rate is changed from time to time hereafter, the applicable rate of interest hereunder shall be increased or decreased, effective as of the day the Prime Rate is changed, by an amount equal to such change in the Prime Rate. All interest chargeable under the Loan Documents shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual number of days elapsed.
2.4 Crediting Payments. Prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default, Bank shall credit a wire transfer of funds, check or other item of payment to such deposit account or Obligation as Borrower specifies. After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Bank shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to immediately apply any wire transfer of funds, check, or other item of payment Bank may receive to conditionally reduce Obligations, but such application of funds shall not be considered a payment on account unless such payment is of immediately available federal funds or unless and until such check or other item of payment is honored when presented for payment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any wire transfer or payment received by Bank after 3:30 p.m. Eastern time shall be deemed to have been received by Bank as of the opening of business on the immediately following Business Day. Whenever any payment to Bank under the Loan Documents would otherwise be due (except by reason of acceleration) on a date that is not a Business Day, such payment shall instead be due on the next Business Day, and additional fees or interest, as the case may be, shall accrue and be payable for the period of such extension.
2.5 Fees. Borrower shall pay to Bank the following:
(a) Facility Fee. On or before the Closing Date, a non-refundable fee of $50,000;
4.
(b) Anniversary Fee. On each anniversary of the Closing Date other than the Formula Revolving Maturity Date, a non-refundable fee of $50,000;
(c) Bank Expenses. On the Closing Date, all Bank Expenses incurred through the Closing Date; and, after the Closing Date, all Bank Expenses, as and when they become due; and
(d) Success Fee. The Success Fee (as defined in the Success Fee Agreement), as and when due under the Success Fee Agreement. Borrower’s obligations under the Success Fee Agreement will survive the termination of this Agreement.
2.6 Term. This Agreement shall become effective on the Closing Date and, subject to Section 12.7, shall continue in full force and effect for so long as any Obligations (other than inchoate indemnity obligations) remain outstanding or Bank has any obligation to make Credit Extensions under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Bank shall have the right to terminate its obligation to make Credit Extensions under this Agreement immediately and without notice upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default.

4. CREATION OF SECURITY INTEREST.
4.1 Grant of Security Interest. Each Loan Party grants and pledges to Bank a continuing security interest in the Collateral to secure prompt repayment of any and all Obligations and to secure prompt performance by each Loan Party of each of its covenants and duties under the Loan Documents. Except for Permitted Liens or as disclosed in the Schedule, such security interest constitutes a valid, first-priority security interest in the presently existing Collateral and will constitute a valid, first-priority security interest in later-acquired Collateral, in each case, subject to Legal Reservations. Each Loan Party also hereby agrees not to sell, transfer, assign, mortgage, pledge, lease, grant a security interest in, or encumber any of its Intellectual Property except for Permitted Transfers. Notwithstanding any termination of this Agreement or of any filings undertaken related to Bank’s rights under the Code, Bank’s Lien on the Collateral shall remain in effect for so long as any Obligations (other than inchoate indemnity obligations) are outstanding.
4.2 Perfection of Security Interest. Each Loan Party authorizes Bank to file at any time financing statements, continuation statements, and amendments thereto that (a) either specifically describe the Collateral or describe the Collateral as all assets of such Loan Party of the kind pledged hereunder, and (b) contain any other information required by the Code for the sufficiency of filing office acceptance of any financing statement, continuation statement, or amendment, including whether such Loan Party is an organization, the type of organization and any organizational identification number issued to such Loan Party, if applicable. Loan Parties shall have possession of the Collateral, except where expressly otherwise provided in this Agreement or where Bank chooses to perfect its security interest by possession in addition to the filing of a financing statement. Where (x) Collateral is in possession of a third-party bailee, each Loan Party shall take such steps as Bank reasonably requests for Bank to, subject to Section 7.11 below, obtain an acknowledgment, in form and substance satisfactory to Bank, of the bailee that the bailee holds such Collateral for the benefit of Bank, and (y) Collateral consists of investment property, deposit accounts, letter-of-credit rights or electronic chattel paper (as such items are defined in Revised Article 9 of the Code), each Loan Party shall take such steps as Bank reasonably requests for Bank to, subject to Section 6.6, obtain “control” (as defined in Revised Article 9 of the Code) of any such items by causing the securities intermediary or depositary institution or issuing bank to execute a control agreement in form and substance satisfactory to Bank. No Loan Party will create any chattel paper without placing a legend on such chattel paper acceptable to Bank indicating that Bank has a security interest in such chattel paper. Loan Parties from time to time may deposit with Bank specific cash collateral to secure specific Obligations. Each Loan Party authorizes Bank to hold such specific balances in pledge and to decline to honor any drafts thereon or any request by a Loan Party or any other Person to pay or otherwise transfer any part of such balances for so long as the specific Obligations (other than inchoate indemnity obligations) are outstanding. Each Loan Party shall take such other actions as Bank requests to perfect its security interests granted under this Agreement.
4.3 Pledge of Collateral. Each Loan Party hereby pledges, assigns and grants to Bank a security interest in all of the Shares, together with all proceeds and substitutions thereof,
7.
all cash, stock and other moneys and property paid thereon, all rights to subscribe for securities declared or granted in connection therewith, and all other cash and noncash proceeds of the foregoing, as security for the performance of the Obligations. Each Loan Party will deliver, to the extent not already delivered on the Original Closing Date, to Bank (a) on the Closing Date, the certificate or certificates for any then-certificated Shares (other than certificated shares of the Australian Subsidiaries, UK Subsidiaries and Existing U.S. Subsidiaries which instead shall be delivered on the Australian/UK Joinder Date or U.S. Joinder date, as applicable), and (b) with respect to any Shares uncertificated as of the Closing Date (or, with respect to any uncertificated Shares of the Australian Subsidiaries, UK Subsidiaries and Existing U.S. Subsidiaries, the Australian/UK Joinder Date or U.S. Joinder Date, as applicable), immediately upon certification, the certificate or certificates for such Shares, in each case accompanied by an instrument of assignment duly governing such Shares. The relevant Loan Party shall cause the books of each entity whose Shares are part of the Collateral and any transfer agent to reflect the pledge of the Shares. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder, Bank may, upon one Business Day’s prior notice to Borrower, effect the transfer of any securities included in the Collateral (including but not limited to the Shares) into the name of Bank and may cause new certificates representing such securities to be issued in the name of Bank or its transferee. Unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, each Loan Party shall be entitled to exercise any voting rights with respect to the Shares and to give consents, waivers and ratifications in respect thereof, provided that no vote shall be cast or consent, waiver or ratification given or action taken which would be inconsistent with any of the terms of this Agreement or which would constitute or create any violation of any of such terms. All such rights to vote and give consents, waivers and ratifications shall terminate upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default.
5. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES.
Each Loan Party represents and warrants as follows:
5.1 Due Organization and Qualification. Each Loan Party and each Subsidiary is duly existing under the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation or organization and qualified and licensed to do business in any state in which the conduct of its business or its ownership of property requires that it be so qualified, except where the failure to do so would not reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Effect.
5.2 Due Authorization; No Conflict. The execution, delivery, and performance of the Loan Documents are within each Loan Party’s powers, have been duly authorized, and are not in conflict with nor constitute a breach of any provision contained in any Loan Party’s Certificate of Incorporation, Bylaws, or other governing document, as applicable, nor will they constitute an event of default under any material agreement by which a Loan Party is bound. No Loan Party is in default under any agreement by which it is bound, except to the extent such default would not reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Effect.
5.3 Collateral. Each Loan Party has rights in or the power to transfer the Collateral, and its title to the Collateral is free and clear of Liens, adverse claims, and restrictions on transfer or pledge except for Permitted Liens. All Collateral (other than laptops and other personal property in the possession of employees in the ordinary course of business) is located solely in the United States, England and Wales or the Commonwealth of Australia. The contracts
8.
that generate fees included in the calculation of Recurring Revenue are in full force and effect as of the date of such inclusion. No Loan Party has received notice of an actual or imminent Insolvency Proceeding of any counterparty to a contract that generates fees included in the calculation of Recurring Revenue. All Inventory is in all material respects of good and merchantable quality, free from all material defects, except for Inventory for which adequate reserves have been made. Except as permitted by Section 6.6, no Loan Party’s Cash is maintained or invested with a Person other than Bank or Bank’s affiliates.
5.4 Intellectual Property Collateral. Each Loan Party is the sole owner of the Intellectual Property Collateral owned by such Loan Party. The Intellectual Property Collateral constitutes all intellectual property necessary for the conduct of each Loan Party’s business as now conducted and as presently proposed to be conducted. To each Loan Party’s knowledge, (i) each of the Copyrights, Patents, and Trademarks included in the Intellectual Property Collateral owned by such Loan Party is valid and enforceable, (ii) no part of the Intellectual Property Collateral has been judged invalid or unenforceable, in whole or in part, and (iii) no claim has been made to such Loan Party that any part of the Intellectual Property Collateral owned by a Loan Party violates the rights of any third party except to the extent such claim would not reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Effect.
5.5 Name; Location of Chief Executive Office. Except as disclosed in the Schedule, no Loan Party has done business under any name other than that specified on the signature page hereof, and each Loan Party’s exact legal name is as set forth in the first paragraph of this Agreement. The chief executive office of each Loan Party is located at the address indicated in Article 10 hereof.
5.6 Litigation. Except as set forth in the Schedule, there are no actions or proceedings pending by or against any Loan Party or any Subsidiary before any court or administrative agency in which a likely adverse decision would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
5.7 No Material Adverse Change in Financial Statements. All consolidated and consolidating financial statements related to Loan Parties and any Subsidiary that are delivered by Loan Parties to Bank or otherwise submitted to Bank fairly present in all material respects Loan Parties’ financial condition as of the date thereof and Loan Parties’ results of operations for the period then ended. There has not been a material adverse change in the consolidated or in the consolidating financial condition of any Loan Party since the date of the most recent of such financial statements submitted to Bank.
5.8 Solvency, Payment of Debts. Each Loan Party is able to pay its debts (including trade debts) as they mature; the fair saleable value of each Loan Party’s assets (including goodwill minus disposition costs) exceeds the fair value of its liabilities; and no Loan Party is left with unreasonably small capital after the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
5.9 Compliance with Laws and Regulations. Each Loan Party and each Subsidiary have met the minimum funding requirements of ERISA with respect to any employee benefit plans subject to ERISA. No event has occurred resulting from any Loan Party’s failure to comply with ERISA that is reasonably likely to result in such Loan Party incurring any liability
9.
that could have a Material Adverse Effect. No Loan Party is an “investment company” or a company “controlled” by an “investment company” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940. No Loan Party is engaged principally, or as one of its important activities, in the business of extending credit for the purpose of purchasing or carrying margin stock (within the meaning of Regulations T and U of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System). No Loan Party has violated any statutes, laws, ordinances or rules applicable to it, the violation of which would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Each Loan Party and each Subsidiary have filed or caused to be filed all tax returns required to be filed by it and have paid, or have made adequate provision for the payment of, all taxes reflected therein, except those being contested in good faith with adequate reserves under GAAP or where the failure to file such returns or pay such taxes would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
5.10 Subsidiaries. No Loan Party owns any stock, partnership interest or other equity securities of any Person, except for Permitted Investments.
5.11 Government Consents. Each Loan Party and each Subsidiary have obtained all consents, approvals and authorizations of, made all declarations or filings with, and given all notices to all governmental authorities that are necessary for the continued operation of such Loan Party’s or Subsidiary’s business as currently conducted, except where the failure to do so would not reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Effect.
5.12 Inbound Licenses. Except as disclosed on the Schedule, no Loan Party is a party to, nor is bound by, any material license or other agreement important for the conduct of such Loan Party’s business that prohibits or otherwise restricts such Loan Party from granting a security interest in such Loan Party’s interest in such license or agreement or any other property important for the conduct of such Loan Party’s business, other than this Agreement or the other Loan Documents.
5.13 Shares. Each Loan Party has full power and authority to create a first lien on the Shares, and no disability or contractual obligation exists that would prohibit such Loan Party from pledging the Shares pursuant to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents. To each Loan Party’s knowledge, there are no subscriptions, warrants, rights of first refusal or other restrictions on transfer relative to, or options exercisable with respect to, the Shares, other than pursuant to applicable federal and state securities laws. The Shares have been and will remain duly authorized and validly issued and are fully paid and non-assessable. To each Loan Party’s knowledge, the Shares are not the subject of any present or threatened suit, action, arbitration, administrative or other proceeding, and such Loan Party knows of no reasonable grounds for the institution of any such proceedings. No interest in any limited liability company or limited partnership controlled by a Loan Party constituting Shares is represented by a certificate unless (a) (in the case of any limited liability company or limited partnership organized in any state of the United States) the limited liability company agreement or limited partnership agreement expressly provides that such interest shall be a “Security” within the meaning of Article 8 of the Code, and (b) such certificate has been delivered to Bank. With respect to each limited liability company or limited partnership organized in any state of the United States, controlled by a Loan Party and constituting Shares whose interests are uncertificated, such limited liability company or limited partnership has not elected, whether in its limited liability company agreement or limited
10.
partnership agreement or otherwise, to have such interests be treated as a “Security” within the meaning of Article 8 of the Code.
5.14 Full Disclosure. No representation, warranty or other statement made by any Loan Party in any report, certificate, or written statement furnished or submitted to Bank taken together with all such reports, certificates, and written statements furnished or submitted to Bank contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact necessary to make the statements contained in such reports, certificates, or statements not misleading in light of the circumstances in which they were made, it being recognized by Bank that the projections and forecasts provided by a Loan Party in good faith and based upon reasonable assumptions are not to be viewed as facts and that actual results during the period or periods covered by any such projections and forecasts may differ from the projected or forecasted results.
6. AFFIRMATIVE COVENANTS.
Each Loan Party covenants that, until payment in full of all outstanding Obligations (other than inchoate indemnity obligations), and for so long as Bank may have any commitment to make a Credit Extension hereunder, each Loan Party shall do all of the following:
6.1 Good Standing and Government Compliance. Each Loan Party shall maintain its and each of its Subsidiaries’ organizational existence and good standing in their respective states of formation, shall maintain qualification and good standing in each other jurisdiction in which the failure to so qualify would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, and shall furnish to Bank the organizational identification number issued to such Loan Party by the authorities of the state in which such Loan Party is organized, if applicable. Each Loan Party shall meet, and shall cause each Subsidiary to meet, the minimum funding requirements of ERISA with respect to any employee benefit plans subject to ERISA. Each Loan Party shall comply, and shall cause each Subsidiary to comply, with all statutes, laws, ordinances and government rules and regulations to which it is subject, and shall maintain, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to maintain, in force all licenses, approvals and agreements, the loss of which or failure to comply with which would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
6.2 Financial Statements, Reports, Certificates; Collateral Audits.

9. BANK’S RIGHTS AND REMEDIES.
9.1 Rights and Remedies. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Bank may, at its election, without notice of its election and without demand, do any one or more of the following, all of which are authorized by each Loan Party:
(a) declare all Obligations, whether evidenced by this Agreement, by any of the other Loan Documents, or otherwise, immediately due and payable (provided that, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default described in Section 8.5 (insolvency), all Obligations shall become immediately due and payable without any action by Bank);
(b) demand that Borrower (i) deposit cash with Bank in an amount equal to the amount of any Letters of Credit remaining undrawn as collateral security for the repayment of any future drawings under such Letters of Credit, and (ii) pay in advance all Letter of Credit fees scheduled to be paid or payable over the remaining term of the Letters of Credit, and Borrower shall promptly deposit and pay such amounts;
(c) cease advancing money or extending credit to or for the benefit of any Loan Party under this Agreement or under any other agreement between a Loan Party and Bank;
(d) settle or adjust disputes and claims directly with account debtors for amounts, upon terms and in whatever order that Bank reasonably considers advisable;
(e) make such payments and do such acts as Bank considers necessary or reasonable to protect its security interest in the Collateral. Each Loan Party agrees to assemble the Collateral if Bank so requires and to make the Collateral available to Bank as Bank may designate. Each Loan Party authorizes Bank to enter the premises where the Collateral is located, to take and maintain possession of the Collateral, or any part of it, and to pay, purchase, contest, or compromise any encumbrance, charge, or lien which in Bank’s determination appears to be prior or superior to its security interest and to pay all expenses incurred in connection therewith. With respect to any Loan Party’s owned premises, such Loan Party hereby grants Bank a license to enter into possession of such premises and to occupy the same, without charge, in order to exercise any of Bank’s rights or remedies provided herein, at law, in equity, or otherwise;
(f) place a “hold” on any account maintained with Bank, decline to honor presentments (including but not limited to checks, wires, and ACH drafts) against any account at Bank, and/or deliver a notice of exclusive control, an entitlement order, or other directions or instructions pursuant to any control agreement or similar agreements providing control of any Collateral;
(g) set off and apply to the Obligations any and all (i) balances and deposits of any Loan Party held by Bank, and (ii) indebtedness at any time owing to or for the credit or the account of any Loan Party held by Bank;
(h) ship, reclaim, recover, store, finish, maintain, repair, prepare for sale, advertise for sale, and sell (in the manner provided for herein) the Collateral. Bank is hereby granted a non-exclusive license or other right, solely pursuant to the provisions of this Section 9.1,
28.
to use, without charge, any Loan Party’s labels, Patents, Copyrights, rights of use of any name, trade secrets, trade names, Trademarks, service marks, and advertising matter, or any property of a similar nature, as it pertains to the Collateral, in completing production of, advertising for sale, and selling any Collateral and, in connection with Bank’s exercise of its rights under this Section 9.1, any Loan Party’s rights under all licenses and all franchise agreements shall inure to Bank’s benefit;
(i) sell the Collateral at either a public or private sale, or both, by way of one or more contracts or transactions, for cash or on terms, in such manner and at such places (including any Loan Party’s premises) as Bank determines is commercially reasonable, and apply any proceeds to the Obligations in whatever manner or order Bank deems appropriate. Bank may sell the Collateral without giving any warranties as to the Collateral. Bank may specifically disclaim any warranties of title or the like. This procedure will not be considered adversely to affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale of the Collateral. If Bank sells any of the Collateral upon credit, Loan Parties will be credited only with payments actually made by the purchaser, received by Bank, and applied to the indebtedness of the purchaser. If the purchaser fails to pay for the Collateral, Bank may resell the Collateral and Loan Parties shall be credited with the proceeds of the sale;
(j) credit bid and purchase Collateral at any public sale;
(k) apply for the appointment of a receiver, trustee, liquidator or conservator of the Collateral, without notice and without regard to the adequacy of the security for the Obligations and without regard to the solvency of any Loan Party, any guarantor or any other Person liable for any of the Obligations; and
(l) any deficiency that exists after disposition of the Collateral as provided above will be paid immediately by Loan Parties.
Bank may comply with any applicable state or federal law requirements in connection with a disposition of the Collateral, and compliance will not be considered adversely to affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale of the Collateral.
9.2 Power of Attorney. Effective only upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Loan Party hereby irrevocably appoints Bank (and any of Bank’s designated officers or employees) as such Loan Party’s true and lawful attorney to: (a) send requests for verification of Accounts or notify account debtors of Bank’s security interest in the Accounts; (b) endorse such Loan Party’s name on any checks or other forms of payment or security that may come into Bank’s possession; (c) sign such Loan Party’s name on any invoice or bill of lading relating to any Account, drafts against account debtors, schedules and assignments of Accounts, verifications of Accounts, and notices to account debtors; (d) dispose of any Collateral; (e) make, settle, and adjust all claims under and decisions with respect to such Loan Party’s policies of insurance; (f) settle and adjust disputes and claims respecting Accounts directly with account debtors, for amounts and upon terms which Bank determines to be reasonable; and (g) file, in its sole discretion, one or more financing or continuation statements and amendments thereto, relative to any of the Collateral; provided that Bank may exercise such power of attorney to sign the name of a Loan Party on any of the documents described in clause (g) above regardless
29.
of whether an Event of Default has occurred. The appointment of Bank as such Loan Party’s attorney in fact, and each and every one of Bank’s rights and powers, being coupled with an interest, is irrevocable until all of the Obligations (other than inchoate indemnity obligations) have been fully repaid and performed and Bank’s obligation to provide advances hereunder is terminated.
9.3 Accounts Collection. At any time after the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, Bank may notify any Person owing funds to any Loan Party of Bank’s security interest in such funds and verify the amount of such Account. Each Loan Party shall collect all amounts owing to such Loan Party for Bank, receive in trust all payments as Bank’s trustee, and immediately deliver such payments to Bank in their original form as received from the account debtor, with proper endorsements for deposit.
9.4 Bank Expenses. If any Loan Party fails to pay any amounts or furnish any required proof of payment due to third persons or entities, as required under the terms of this Agreement, then Bank may do any or all of the following after reasonable notice to Borrower: (a) make payment of the same or any part thereof; (b) set up such reserves under the Formula Revolving Line as Bank deems necessary to protect Bank from the exposure created by such failure; and/or (c) obtain and maintain insurance policies of the type discussed in Section 6.5 of this Agreement and take any action with respect to such policies as Bank deems prudent. Any amounts so paid or deposited by Bank shall constitute Bank Expenses, shall be immediately due and payable, shall bear interest at the then applicable rate hereinabove provided, and shall be secured by the Collateral. Any payments made by Bank shall not constitute an agreement by Bank to make similar payments in the future or a waiver by Bank of any Event of Default under this Agreement.
9.5 Bank’s Liability for Collateral. Bank has no obligation to clean up or otherwise prepare the Collateral for sale. All risk of loss, damage or destruction of the Collateral shall be borne by Loan Parties.
9.6 No Obligation to Pursue Others. Bank has no obligation to attempt to satisfy the Obligations by collecting them from any other Person liable for them, and Bank may release, modify, or waive any collateral provided by any other Person to secure any of the Obligations, all without affecting Bank’s rights against any Loan Party. Each Loan Party waives any right it may have to require Bank to pursue any other Person for any of the Obligations.
9.7 Remedies Cumulative. Bank’s rights and remedies under this Agreement, the Loan Documents, and all other agreements shall be cumulative. Bank shall have all other rights and remedies not inconsistent herewith as provided under the Code, by law, or in equity. No exercise by Bank of one right or remedy shall be deemed an election, and no waiver by Bank of any Event of Default shall be deemed a continuing waiver. No delay by Bank shall constitute a waiver, election, or acquiescence by it. No waiver by Bank shall be effective unless made in a written document signed on behalf of Bank and then shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which it was given. Each Loan Party expressly agrees that this Section 9.7 may not be waived or modified by Bank by course of performance, conduct, estoppel, or otherwise.
30.
9.8 Demand; Protest. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, each Loan Party waives demand, protest, notice of protest, notice of default or dishonor, notice of payment and nonpayment, and any other notices relating to the Obligations.
10. NOTICES.

Jurisdiction shall lie in the State of New York.

EACH OF THEM, AFTER CONSULTING OR HAVING HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO CONSULT WITH COUNSEL OF THEIR CHOICE, KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY, AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT ANY OF THEM MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LITIGATION BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY RELATED INSTRUMENT OR LOAN DOCUMENT OR ANY OF THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, DEALING, STATEMENTS (WHETHER ORAL OR WRITTEN), OR ACTION OF ANY OF THEM.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties may apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for preliminary or interim equitable relief or to compel arbitration in accordance with this Article 11. The costs and expenses of the arbitration, including without limitation the arbitrator’s fees, expert witness fees, and reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred by the parties to the arbitration, may be awarded to the prevailing party, in the discretion of the arbitrator, or may be apportioned between the parties in any manner deemed appropriate by the arbitrator.

13. GUARANTY.
13.1 For and in consideration of the Credit Extensions by Bank to Borrower hereunder, and acknowledging that Bank would not enter into this Agreement without the benefit of this guaranty, Guarantors hereby unconditionally and irrevocably guarantee the prompt and complete payment of all amounts that Borrower owes to Bank and performance by Borrower of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents in strict accordance with their respective terms. This guaranty is a continuing guaranty that covers, without limitation, new debts incurred by Borrower under the Loan Documents.
13.2 If Borrower does not pay any amount or perform its obligations in strict accordance with the Loan Documents, Guarantors shall immediately pay all amounts due thereunder (including, without limitation, all principal, interest and fees) and otherwise proceed to complete the same and satisfy all of Borrower’s obligations under the Loan Documents.
13.3 The obligations hereunder are joint and several, and the obligations hereunder are independent of the obligations of Borrower and any other Person or entity, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against Guarantors whether action is brought against Borrower or whether Borrower be joined in any such action or actions. Guarantors waive the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting their liability hereunder, or the enforcement thereof, to the extent permitted by law. Guarantors’ liability under this guaranty is not conditioned or contingent upon the genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability of the Loan Documents.
13.4 Guarantors authorize Bank, without notice or demand and without affecting their liability hereunder, from time to time to (a) renew, extend or otherwise change the terms of the Loan Documents or any part thereof; (b) take and hold security for the payment of this guaranty or the Loan Documents, and exchange, enforce, waive and release any such security; and (c) apply
35.
such security and direct the order or manner of sale thereof as Bank in its sole discretion may determine.
13.5 Guarantors waive any right to require Bank to (a) proceed against Borrower, any other guarantor or any other Person; (b) proceed against or exhaust any security held from Borrower; or (c) pursue any other remedy in Bank’s power whatsoever. Bank may, at its election, exercise or decline or fail to exercise any right or remedy each may have against Borrower or any security held by Bank, including without limitation the right to foreclose upon any such security by judicial or nonjudicial sale, without affecting or impairing in any way the liability of Guarantors hereunder. Guarantors waive any defense arising by reason of any disability or other defense of Borrower or by reason of the cessation from any cause whatsoever of the liability of Borrower. Guarantors waive any setoff, defense or counterclaim that Borrower may have against Bank. Guarantors waive any defense arising out of the absence, impairment or loss of any right of reimbursement or subrogation or any other rights against ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇. Until all of the amounts that Borrower owes to Bank have been paid in full, Guarantors shall have no right of subrogation or reimbursement, contribution or other rights against ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, and Guarantors waive any right to enforce any remedy that Bank now has or may hereafter have against Borrower. Guarantors waive all presentments, demands for performance, notices of nonperformance, protests, notices of protest, notices of dishonor and notices of acceptance of this guaranty and of the existence, creation or incurring of new or additional indebtedness. Guarantors assume the responsibility for being and keeping themselves informed of the financial condition of Borrower and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of any indebtedness or nonperformance of any obligation of Borrower, warrant to Bank that they will keep so informed, and agree that, absent a request for particular information by Guarantors, Bank shall have no duty to advise Guarantors of information known to Bank regarding such condition or any such circumstances. Guarantors waive any benefits that they have that permit a subordinating creditor to assert suretyship defenses or that give a subordinating creditor rights to require a senior creditor to marshal assets. Guarantors will not assert such a defense or right.
13.6 If Borrower becomes insolvent or is adjudicated bankrupt or files a petition for reorganization, arrangement, composition or similar relief under any present or future provision of the United States Bankruptcy Code, or if such a petition is filed against Borrower, and in any such proceeding some or all of any indebtedness or obligations under the Loan Documents are terminated or rejected or any obligation of Borrower is modified or abrogated, or if Borrower’s obligations are otherwise avoided for any reason, Guarantors agree that Guarantors’ liability hereunder shall not thereby be affected or modified and such liability shall continue in full force and effect as if no such action or proceeding had occurred. This guaranty shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if any payment must be returned by Bank upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of Borrower, a Guarantor or otherwise, as though such payment had not been made.
13.7 Any indebtedness of Borrower now or hereafter held by Guarantors is hereby subordinated to any indebtedness of Borrower to Bank; and such indebtedness of Borrower to Guarantors shall be collected, enforced and received by Guarantors as trustees for Bank and be paid over to Bank on account of the indebtedness of Borrower to Bank but without reducing or affecting in any manner the liability of Guarantors under the other provisions of this guaranty.
36.
13.8 Guarantors agree to pay all Bank Expenses which may be incurred by Bank in the enforcement of this guaranty. No terms or provisions of this guaranty may be changed, waived, revoked or amended except in compliance with Section 12.5. Should any provision of this guaranty be determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable, all of the other provisions shall remain effective. This guaranty, together with any agreements (including without limitation any security agreements or any pledge agreements) executed in connection with this guaranty, embodies the entire agreement among the parties hereto with respect to the matters set forth herein and supersedes all prior agreements among the parties with respect to the matters set forth herein. No course of prior dealing among the parties, no usage of trade, and no parol or extrinsic evidence of any nature shall be used to supplement, modify or vary any of the terms hereof. There are no conditions to the full effectiveness of this guaranty. Bank may assign this guaranty in accordance with Section 12.1 without in any way affecting Guarantors’ liability under it. This guaranty shall inure to the benefit of Bank and its successors and assigns. This guaranty is in addition to the guarantees of any other guarantors and any and all other guarantees of Borrower’s indebtedness or liabilities to Bank.
13.9 All payments made by Guarantors hereunder will be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for, any present or future taxes (but excluding any tax (a) imposed on or measured by the net income or profits of Bank pursuant to the laws of the jurisdiction in which it is organized or the jurisdiction in which the principal office or applicable lending office of Bank is located or otherwise tax resident or any subdivision thereof or therein or (b) resulting from Bank’s failure to comply with Section 3.3) and all interest, penalties or similar liabilities with respect thereto. If any such taxes are so levied or imposed, Guarantors agree to pay the full amount of such taxes, and such additional amounts as may be necessary so that every payment of all amounts due under this guaranty, after withholding or deduction for or on account of any taxes, will not be less than the amount provided for herein and in this Agreement.
