After any change in the effective rate hereunder, Lender shall recalculate future payments of principal and interest to fully amortize the outstanding principal amount over the remaining scheduled monthly payments hereunder prior to the 2016 Term Loan Maturity Date (and Lender will provide subsequent notice to Borrower of any such recalculations). The entire principal balance of the 2016 Term Loan Advances and all accrued but unpaid interest hereunder, and all other outstanding Secured Obligations with respect to the 2016 Term Loan Advances, shall be due and payable on 2016 Term Loan Maturity Date. Borrower shall make all payments under this Agreement without setoff, recoupment or deduction and regardless of any counterclaim or defense. Lender will initiate debit entries to the Borrower’s account as authorized on the ACH Authorization on each payment date of all periodic obligations payable to Lender under each 2016 Term Loan Advance. Once repaid, a 2016 Term Loan Advance or any portion thereof may not be reborrowed.”

In the event any interest is not paid when due hereunder, delinquent interest shall be added to principal and shall bear interest on interest, compounded at the rate set forth in Section 2.1(c), 2.1.1(c), 2.1.2(c), or Section 2.3, as applicable.”

(g) Section 2.4 (Prepayment) is amended in its entirety and replaced with the following:

“2.4 Prepayment.

(a) At its option upon at least seven (7) business days prior notice to Lender, Borrower may prepay all, but not less than all, of the outstanding 2014 Term Loan Advance by paying the entire principal balance, all accrued and unpaid interest, all unpaid Lender’s fees and expenses accrued to the date of the prepayment (including the 2014 End of Term Charge), together with a prepayment charge equal to the following percentage of the principal 2014 Term Loan Advance amount being prepaid: if such 2014 Term Loan Advance is prepaid in any of the first twelve (12) months following the 2014 Closing Date, three percent (3.00%); after twelve (12) months following the 2014 Closing Date but prior to twenty four (24) months following the 2014 Closing Date, two percent (2.00%); and thereafter but prior to the 2014 Term Loan Maturity Date, one percent (1.00%) (each, a “Prepayment Charge”).

(b) In addition, at its option upon at least seven (7) business days prior notice to Lender, Borrower may prepay all, but not less than all, of the outstanding 2016 Term Loan Advance(s) by paying the entire principal balance, all accrued and unpaid interest, all unpaid Lender’s fees and expenses accrued to the date of the prepayment (including the 2016 End of Term Charge), together with a prepayment charge equal to the following percentage of the principal 2016 Term Loan Advances being prepaid: if such 2016 Term Loan Advance(s) is prepaid in any of the first twelve (12) months following the 2016 Closing Date, three percent (3.00%); after twelve (12) months following the 2016 Closing Date but prior to twenty four (24) months following the 2016 Closing Date, two percent (2.00%); and thereafter but prior to the 2016 Term Loan Maturity Date, one percent (1.00%) (each, a “2016 Prepayment Charge”).

(c) Borrower agrees that each of the Prepayment Charge and 2016 Prepayment Charge is a reasonable calculation of Lender’s lost profits in view of the difficulties and impracticality of determining actual damages resulting from an early repayment of the 2014 Term Loan Advance and/or 2016 Term Loan Advances. Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control, Borrower shall prepay the outstanding amount of all principal and accrued interest through the prepayment date and all unpaid Lender’s fees and out-of-pocket expenses under the Loan Documents accrued to the date of the repayment (including the 2014 End of Term Charge and the 2016 End of Term Charge) together with the applicable Prepayment Charge and/or 2016 Prepayment Charge.”

(h) Section 2.5 (End of Term Charge) is amended in its entirety and replaced with the following:

“2.5 End of Term Charges. On the earliest to occur of (i) January 1, 2018, (ii) the date that Borrower prepays the outstanding 2014 Term Loan Advances, or (iii) the date that the 2014 Term Loan Advances become due and payable, Borrower shall pay Lender a charge equal to Five Hundred Forty Thousand Three Hundred Sixty-Three Dollars and Sixty Cents ($540,363.60) (the “2014 End of Term Charge”). Notwithstanding the required payment date of such charge, the 2014 End of Term Charge shall have been deemed to have been earned by Lender as of the 2014 Closing Date. In addition, on the earliest to occur of (i) the 2016 Term Loan Maturity Date, (ii) the date that Borrower prepays the outstanding 2016 Term Loan Advances in full, or (iii) the date that the 2016 Term Loan Advances become due and payable, Borrower shall pay Lender a charge equal to three percent (3.0%) of the aggregate original principal amount of all 2016 Term Loan Advances extended by Lender (the “2016 End of Term Charge”). Notwithstanding the required payment date of such charge, the 2016 End of Term Charge shall be deemed to have been earned by Lender as of the 2016 Closing Date.”

(i) Section 3 (Security Interests) of the Loan Agreement is amended by deleting subsection (ii)(D) appearing in the first sentence of Section 3.1 in its entirety and replacing it with the following:

“(D) [Reserved] and”

(j) Section 7.13 (Deposit Accounts) is amended in its entirety and replaced with the following:

“7.13 Deposit Accounts. The Borrower shall not maintain any Deposit Accounts, or accounts holding Investment Property, except (i) with respect to which Agent has an Account Control Agreement and (ii) a deposit account maintained in the United Kingdom for funding payroll obligations with a balance not to exceed $2,000,000 at any time).”
