(a) Interest Rate. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, all Loans shall bear interest at the Interest Rate.

(b) Default Rate. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, including Borrower’s breach of Section 9.3, Lender, at its option, may, as permitted under applicable law, add any unpaid accrued interest, Fees and Expenses to the principal balance of the Loans. Also, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, including Borrower’s breach of Section 9.3, Lender, at its option, may, as permitted under applicable law, increase the interest rate on the Loans to the Default Rate.

(c) Minimum Interest. Notwithstanding the other terms of Section 2.7(a) to the contrary, and except as limited by the usury savings provision of Section 2.7(f), Borrower shall pay Lender at least the Minimum Interest each calendar month during the term of this Agreement, and Borrower shall pay any deficiency between the Minimum Interest and the amount of interest otherwise payable on the first day of each month and on the Final Maturity Date. When calculating this deficiency, the Default Rate shall be disregarded.

(d) Clearance Days. Payments received by Lender shall be applied to the Advances on the next Business Day after receipt of such payment by Lender (the “Payment Application Date”), at which time (i) the Collateral Management Fees, as set forth in Section 2.6(d), shall terminate as to the portion of the Loan that has been paid, and (ii) the principal amount paid down shall continue to accrue interest at the applicable Interest Rate through the end of the second Business Day following the Payment Application Date.

In the event that such a court determines that Lender has received interest and other charges hereunder in excess of the highest rate applicable hereto, such excess shall be deemed received on account of, and shall automatically be applied to reduce the Obligations, other than interest, in the inverse order of maturity, and the provisions hereof shall be deemed amended to provide for the highest permissible rate. If there are no Obligations, Lender shall refund to Borrower such excess.

Until deposited, Borrower shall hold all such payments and proceeds in trust for Lender without commingling with other funds or property. Lender will withdraw all monies deposited to the Collection Account and pay down outstanding Advances on the first Business Day following the Business Day of deposit to the Collection Account, subject to Section 2.7(d).

2.9 Payments Due on Non Business Days. If any payment due hereunder falls on a day that is not a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next Business Day, and interest shall continue to accrue during that time period.

2.11 Taxes on Payments. All payments in respect of the Obligations shall be made free and clear of and without any deduction or withholding for or on account of any present and future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings, assessments or governmental charges, and all liabilities with respect thereto, imposed by the United States of America, any foreign government, or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein, excluding any taxes imposed on Lender under the Internal Revenue Code or similar state and local laws and determined by Lender’s net income, and any franchise taxes imposed on Lender by any state (or any political subdivision thereof) (all such non excluded taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings, assessments, charges and liabilities being hereinafter referred to as “Taxes”). If any Taxes are imposed and required by law to be deducted or withheld from any amount payable to Lender, then Borrower shall (i) increase the amount of such payment so that Lender will receive a net amount (after deduction of all Taxes) equal to the amount due hereunder, and (ii) pay such Taxes to the appropriate taxing authority for the account of Lender prior to the date on which penalties attach thereto or interest accrues thereon; provided, however, if any such penalties or interest shall become due, Borrower shall make prompt payment thereof to the appropriate taxing authority.

Borrower agrees that neither Lender, nor any of its designees or attorneys-in-fact, will be liable for any act of commission or omission, or for any error of judgment or mistake of fact or law with respect to the exercise of the power of attorney granted under this Section 3.3, other than as a result of its or their gross negligence or willful misconduct.

At any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Lender may (but need not), in Lender’s or Borrower’s name, execute and deliver proofs of claim, receive payment of proceeds and endorse checks and other instruments representing payment of the policy of insurance, and adjust, litigate, compromise or release claims against the issuer of any policy. Any monies received under any insurance policy assigned to Lender, other than liability insurance policies, or received as payment of any award or compensation for condemnation or taking by eminent domain, shall be paid to Lender and, as determined by Lender in its sole discretion, either be applied to prepayment of the Obligations or disbursed to Borrower under staged payment terms reasonably satisfactory to Lender for application to the cost of repairs, replacements, or restorations which shall be effected with reasonable promptness and shall be of a value at least equal to the value of the items or property destroyed.

(e) Lender may (i) exercise collection remedies against Account Debtors and other persons obligated on Collateral directly or through the use of collection agencies and other collection specialists, (ii) advertise dispositions of Collateral through publications or media of general circulation, whether or not the Collateral is of a specialized nature, (iii) contact other persons, whether or not in the same business as Borrower for expressions of interest in acquiring all or any portion of the Collateral, (iv) hire one or more professional auctioneers to assist in the disposition of Collateral, whether or not the collateral is of a specialized nature, (v) dispose of Collateral by utilizing internet sites that provide for the auction of assets of the types included in the Collateral or that have the reasonable capability of doing so, or that match buyers and sellers of assets, (vi) dispose of assets in wholesale rather than retail markets, (vii) disclaim any warranties of title or like disposition warranties, (viii) purchase insurance or credit enhancements to insure Lender against risks of loss, collection or disposition of Collateral or to provide to Lender a guaranteed return from the collection or disposition of Collateral, or (iv) to the extent deemed appropriate by Lender, obtain the services of other brokers, investment bankers, consultants and other professionals to assist Lender in the collection or disposition of any of the Collateral.

(f) For the purpose of enabling Lender to exercise the rights and remedies hereunder, Borrower hereby grants to Lender, to the extent assignable, an irrevocable, non-exclusive license to use, assign, license or sublicense any of the trademarks, service-marks, trade names, business names, trade styles, designs, logos and other source of business identifiers and other intellectual property and general intangibles now owned or hereafter acquired by Borrower, wherever the same maybe located, including in such license reasonable access to all media in which any of the licensed items may be recorded or stored and to all computer programs used for the compilation or printout thereof.

(g) All expenses of protecting, storing, warehousing, insuring, handling and shipping the Collateral, any and all excise, property, sales and use taxes imposed by any state, federal or local authority on any of the Collateral or in respect of the sale thereof, shall be Expenses and if Borrower fails to promptly pay any thereof when due, Lender may, as its option, but shall not be required to, pay the same and charge Borrower’s account thereof.

(h) Lender shall not be liable or responsible in any way for the safekeeping of any of the Collateral or for any loss or damage thereto or for any diminution in the value thereof, or for any act or default of any warehouseman, carrier, forwarding agency or other person whomsoever, but the same shall be at Borrower’s sole risk.

8.4 Delinquent Taxes. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default or upon notification from any taxing authority, or if any notice is received by Lender with respect to delinquent taxes outstanding except where a bona fide good faith dispute exists, Borrower shall furnish Lender as requested with proof satisfactory of Borrower’s making payment or deposit of F.I.C.A. withholding and other taxes required of it by applicable law. Such proof shall be furnished within five days after the due date for each such payment or deposit. If Borrower fails to make any such payment or deposit when due or furnish such proof when due, Lender may, in its sole discretion, and without notice to Borrower (a) make payment of same or any part thereof, or (b) set up such additional reserves in Borrower’s account as may be necessary to satisfy the liability therefor. Each amount so paid or deposited by Lender shall constitute an Advance under this Agreement. The setting up of a reserve for making payment shall not constitute a waiver of any default under the terms of this Agreement, nor shall Lender be obligated to make such payments or set up reserves in the future.

8.5 Appointment of Receiver or Trustee. Borrower hereby irrevocably agrees that Lender has the right under this Agreement, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to seek the appointment of a receiver, trustee or similar official over Borrower to effect the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and that Lender is entitled to seek such relief. Borrower hereby irrevocably agrees not to object to such appointment on any grounds.

8.6 Remedies Cumulative. The rights and remedies of Lender herein and in the Loan Documents are cumulative, and are not exclusive of any other rights, powers, privileges, or remedies, now or hereafter existing, at law, in equity or otherwise. The failure or delay of Lender to exercise or enforce any rights, liens, powers or remedies hereunder or under any of the aforesaid agreements or other document or security or collateral shall not operate as a waiver of such liens, powers and remedies, but all such liens, rights, powers and remedies shall continue in full force and effect until all loans and advances and all other Obligations owing or to become owing from Borrower to Lender shall have been fully satisfied, and all liens, rights, powers and remedies herein provided are cumulative and none is exclusive. All acts by Lender or its designee are hereby ratified and approved, and neither Lender nor its designee shall be liable for any acts or omissions, nor for any error of judgment or mistake of fact or law.

(b) THE PARTIES AGREE THAT ALL ACTIONS OR PROCEEDINGS ARISING IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS SHALL BE TRIED AND LITIGATED ONLY IN THE STATE AND FEDERAL COURTS LOCATED IN THE COUNTY OF LOS ANGELES, STATE OF CALIFORNIA, PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THAT ANY SUIT SEEKING ENFORCEMENT AGAINST ANY COLLATERAL OR OTHER PROPERTY MAY BE BROUGHT, AT LENDER’S OPTION, IN THE COURTS OF ANY JURISDICTION WHERE LENDER ELECTS TO BRING SUCH ACTION OR WHERE SUCH COLLATERAL OR OTHER PROPERTY MAY BE FOUND.

IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, A COPY OF THIS AGREEMENT MAY BE FILED AS A WRITTEN CONSENT TO A TRIAL BY THE COURT.

10.10 Reference Provision. In the event the Jury Trial Waiver set forth above is not enforceable, the parties elect to proceed under this Judicial Reference Provision.

(a) With the exception of the items specified in clause (b) below, any controversy, dispute or claim (each, a “Claim”) between the parties arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document will be resolved by a reference proceeding in California in accordance with the provisions of Sections 638 et seq. of the California Code of Civil Procedure (“CCP”), or their successor sections, which shall constitute the exclusive remedy for the resolution of any Claim, including whether the Claim is subject to the reference proceeding. Except as otherwise provided in the Loan Documents, venue for the reference proceeding will be in the state or federal court in the county or district where the real property involved in the action, if any, is located or in the state or federal court in the county or district where venue is otherwise appropriate under applicable law (the “Court”).

(b) The matters that shall not be subject to a reference are the following: (i) nonjudicial foreclosure of any security interests in real or personal property, (ii) exercise of self-help remedies (including, without limitation, set-off), (iii) appointment of a receiver and (iv) temporary, provisional or ancillary remedies (including, without limitation, writs of attachment, writs of possession, temporary restraining orders or preliminary injunctions). This reference provision does not limit the right of any party to exercise or oppose any of the rights and remedies described in clauses (i) and (ii) or to seek or oppose from a court of competent jurisdiction any of the items described in clauses (iii) and (iv). The exercise of, or opposition to, any of those items does not waive the right of any party to a reference pursuant to this reference provision as provided herein.

(c) The referee shall be a retired judge or justice selected by mutual written agreement of the parties. If the parties do not agree within ten (10) days of a written request to do so by any party, then, upon request of any party, the referee shall be selected by the Presiding Judge of the Court (or his or her representative). A request for appointment of a referee may be heard on an ex parte or expedited basis, and the parties agree that irreparable harm would result if ex parte relief is not granted. Pursuant to CCP § 170.6, each party shall have one peremptory challenge to the referee selected by the Presiding Judge of the Court (or his or her representative).

(d) The parties agree that time is of the essence in conducting the reference proceedings. Accordingly, the referee shall be requested, subject to change in the time periods specified herein for good cause shown, to (i) set the matter for a status and trial-setting conference within fifteen (15) days after the date of selection of the referee, (ii) if practicable, try all issues of law or fact within one hundred twenty (120) days after the date of the conference and (iii) report a statement of decision within twenty (20) days after the matter has been submitted for decision.

(e) The referee will have power to expand or limit the amount and duration of discovery. The referee may set or extend discovery deadlines or cutoffs for good cause, including a party’s failure to provide requested discovery for any reason whatsoever. Unless otherwise ordered based upon good cause shown, no party shall be entitled to “priority” in conducting discovery, depositions may be taken by either party upon seven (7) days written notice, and all other discovery shall be responded to within fifteen (15) days after service. All disputes relating to discovery which cannot be resolved by the parties shall be submitted to the referee whose decision shall be final and binding.

(f) Except as expressly set forth herein, the referee shall determine the manner in which the reference proceeding is conducted including the time and place of hearings, the order of presentation of evidence, and all other questions that arise with respect to the course of the reference proceeding. All proceedings and hearings conducted before the referee, except for trial, shall be conducted without a court reporter, except that when any party so requests, a court reporter will be used at any hearing conducted before the referee, and the referee will be provided a courtesy copy of the transcript. The party making such a request shall have the obligation to arrange for and pay the court reporter. Subject to the referee’s power to award costs to the prevailing party, the parties will equally share the cost of the referee and the court reporter at trial.

(g) The referee shall be required to determine all issues in accordance with existing case law and the statutory laws of the State of California. The rules of evidence applicable to proceedings at law in the State of California will be applicable to the reference proceeding. The referee shall be empowered to enter equitable as well as legal relief, enter equitable orders that will be binding on the parties and rule on any motion which would be authorized in a court proceeding, including without limitation motions for summary judgment or summary adjudication. The referee shall issue a decision at the close of the reference proceeding which disposes of all claims of the parties that are the subject of the reference. Pursuant to CCP § 644, such decision shall be entered by the Court as a judgment or an order in the same manner as if the action had been tried by the Court and any such decision will be final, binding and conclusive. The parties reserve the right to appeal from the final judgment or order or from any appealable decision or order entered by the referee. The parties reserve the right to findings of fact, conclusions of laws, a written statement of decision, and the right to move for a new trial or a different judgment, which new trial, if granted, is also to be a reference proceeding under this provision.

(h) If the enabling legislation which provides for appointment of a referee is repealed (and no successor statute is enacted), any dispute between the parties that would otherwise be determined by reference procedure will be resolved and determined by arbitration. The arbitration will be conducted by a retired judge or justice, in accordance with the California Arbitration Act §1280 through §1294.2 of the CCP as amended from time to time. The limitations with respect to discovery set forth above shall apply to any such arbitration proceeding.

(i) THE PARTIES RECOGNIZE AND AGREE THAT ALL CONTROVERSIES, DISPUTES AND CLAIMS RESOLVED UNDER THIS REFERENCE PROVISION WILL BE DECIDED BY A REFEREE AND NOT BY A JURY. AFTER CONSULTING (OR HAVING HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO CONSULT) WITH COUNSEL OF ITS, HIS OR HER OWN CHOICE, EACH PARTY KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY, AND FOR THE MUTUAL BENEFIT OF ALL PARTIES, AGREES THAT THIS REFERENCE PROVISION WILL APPLY TO ANY CONTROVERSY, DISPUTE OR CLAIM BETWEEN OR AMONG THEM ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY RELATED TO, THIS AGREEMENT OR THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS.

10.11 Patriot Act Notification. Lender is subject to the USA Patriot Act, Title III of Pub. L. 107-56, signed into law October 26, 2001 (the “Patriot Act”) and hereby notifies Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act, Lender is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies Borrower, which information includes the names and addresses of Borrower and other information that will allow Lender to identify Borrower in accordance with the Patriot Act.
