(d) The Administrative Agent shall maintain accounts in which it shall record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the Class thereof, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders and each Lender’s share thereof. (e) The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraph (c) or (d) of this Section shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provided that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of Borrower to repay the Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. (f) Any proceeds of Collateral received by Administrative Agent (i) not constituting (A) a specific payment of principal, interest, fees or other sum payable under the Loan Documents (which shall be applied as specified by Administrative Agent) or (B) a mandatory prepayment (which shall be applied in accordance with Section 2.7) or (ii) after an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and Administrative Agent so elects or the Required Lenders so direct, such funds shall be applied ratably first, to pay any fees, indemnities, or expense reimbursements including amounts then due to Administrative Agent from Borrower, second, to pay any fees or expense reimbursements then due to the Lenders from Borrower, third, to pay interest then due and payable on the Loans ratably, fourth, to prepay principal on the Loans and any other amounts owing with respect to Specified Treasury Services Obligations ratably, and fifth, to the payment of any other Secured Obligation due to Administrative Agent or any Lender by Borrower. Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall have the continuing and

28 exclusive right to apply and reverse and reapply any and all such proceeds and payments to any portion of the Secured Obligations in accordance with this Section 2.6(f). (g) If, except as expressly provided herein, any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans or participations in Swingline Loans resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and participations in Swingline Loans and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other similarly situated Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans and participations in Swingline Loans of other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by all such Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans and participations in Swingline Loans; provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including the application of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender) or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or participations in Swingline Loans to any assignee or participant, other than to Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply). Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against Borrower rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of Borrower in the amount of such participation. (h) Unless Administrative Agent shall have received notice from Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to Administrative Agent for the account of the relevant Lenders hereunder that Borrower will not make such payment, Administrative Agent may assume that Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the relevant Lenders, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the relevant Lenders, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation. (i) If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.4(c), 2.5(b), 2.6(h) or 10.4(d), then Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), apply any amounts thereafter received by Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender and for the benefit of Administrative Agent or the Swingline Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations to it under such Section until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid in any order as determined by Administrative Agent in its discretion.

29 2.7 Payment of Interest and Principal; Mandatory Prepayments. (a) From and following the Closing Date, the Loans (including each Swingline Loan) and the other Secured Obligations shall bear interest at the Interest Rate. (b) Interest on all Loans, including, without limitation, the Term Loan and the Swingline Loans, shall be payable (i) in arrears on each Interest Payment Date (beginning with the first Interest Payment Date of the first full calendar month after the Closing Date), (ii) as provided in Sections 2.7(d) and (e), and (iii) upon the payment in full of any Advances or any or all of the Loans, and on the Termination Date. (c) The outstanding principal amount of the Loans other than the Term Loan and Swingline Loans, plus all accrued but unpaid interest and all other sums due the Lenders hereunder in respect of such Loans, shall be due and payable in full on the Termination Date. The outstanding principal amount of the Swingline Loans, plus all other sums due to the Swingline Lender hereunder in respect of such Swingline Loans (other than accrued interest thereon) shall be due and payable to the Swingline Lender on the earlier of the Termination Date and the date that occurs ten (10) Business Days after such Swingline Loan is made; provided that: (i) all interest which accrues on Swingline Loans shall be payable on each Interest Payment Date as provided in Section 2.7(b) above, and (ii) the proceeds of each Advance shall be used by the Borrower to repay all Swingline Loans then outstanding. The outstanding principal amount of the Term Loan shall be payable in accordance with Section 2.1(c) and, together with all accrued but unpaid interest and all other sums due the Lenders hereunder in respect of such Term Loan, shall be due and payable in full on the Termination Date. If on any payment date for the Term Loan the balance in the Blocked Account is less then the next due principal payment, Borrower shall remit the balance of such payment to Administrative Agent on such payment date. (d) There shall become due and payable and Borrower shall prepay the Advances, together with all accrued but unpaid interest thereon, in an amount determined as follows: (i) the amount by which: (A) Outstanding Advances—Guaranteed Loans exceeds (x) the Borrowing Base—Guaranteed or (y) Availability--Guaranteed, (B) Outstanding Advances—Non-Guaranteed Loans exceeds (x) the Borrowing Base—Non- Guaranteed or (y) Availability—Non-Guaranteed, or (C) the then outstanding principal amount of the Term Loan exceeds the aggregate of the Borrowing Base—Guaranteed plus the Borrowing Base—Non-Guaranteed or the aggregate of Availability-Guaranteed plus Availability-Non- Guaranteed; (ii) the amount by which (A) prior to the Term Loan Conversion Date, the aggregate of (1) Outstanding Advances—Guaranteed Loans plus (2) Outstanding Advances—Non-Guaranteed Loans exceeds the lesser of (3) the Lenders’ Maximum Commitments or (4) the aggregate of the Borrowing Base—Guaranteed, plus the Borrowing Base—Non-Guaranteed; or (B) on and after the Term Loan Conversion Date, the outstanding principal amount of the Term Loan exceeds the lesser of (1) an amount equal to the Term Loan Conversion Amount less all payments and prepayments made or required to be made as of or

30 prior to the date of determination or (2) the aggregate of the Borrowing Base—Guaranteed, plus the Borrowing Base—Non-Guaranteed; (iii) an amount equal to the Secondary Market Net Sales Proceeds of any Secondary Market Sale of any Financed Guaranteed Loan or any Financed Non-Guaranteed Loans, including, without limitation, any such portion of any Multi-Draw SBA Loan (which proceeds shall be applied as set forth in the Cash Management System and this Agreement). (e) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that at any time (x) Outstanding Advances—Guaranteed Loans shall exceed, as applicable: 90% (subject to adjustment by Administrative Agent in the exercise of its reasonable credit discretion) of the outstanding principal amount of the SBA 7(a) Guaranteed Note Receivables related to such Outstanding Advances—Guaranteed Loans, (y) Outstanding Advances—Non-Guaranteed Loans shall exceed 55% (subject to adjustment by Administrative Agent in the exercise of its reasonable credit discretion) of the outstanding principal amount of the SBA 7(a) Non- Guaranteed Note Receivables related to such Advances--Non-Guaranteed Loans, or (z) the outstanding principal amount of the Term Loan shall exceed the lesser of (1) the Lenders’ Maximum Commitments or (2) the aggregate of the Borrowing Base—Guaranteed, plus the Borrowing Base—Non-Guaranteed, Borrower shall prepay such excess, together with accrued but unpaid interest thereon. (f) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if clause (ii) of the definition of the term “Secondary Market Net Sales Proceeds” shall be applicable, then such Secondary Market Net Sales Proceeds received in respect of any Financed Guaranteed Loan shall be applied against Advances-Guaranteed Loans, and Secondary Market Net Sales Proceeds received in respect of any Financed Non-Guaranteed Loans shall be applied against Advances-Non-Guaranteed Loans and/or the Term Loan in such manner as Administrative Agent shall determine, with any excess after such application to be held by Administrative Agent, at its option, as cash collateral for the Secured Obligations. Any prepayments received by Administrative Agent in respect of subsection 2.7(d)(i)(A) above shall be applied against Advances-Guaranteed Loans. Any prepayments received by Administrative Agent in respect of subsection 2.7(d)(i)(B) above shall be applied against Advances-Guaranteed Loans and/or the Term Loan in such manner as Administrative Agent shall determine. All such prepayments received by Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.7(d) shall be applied against its respective Loan on the date deemed received pursuant to Section 2.6(a) and otherwise in such manner as shall be determined by Administrative Agent. (g) There shall become due and payable and Borrower shall prepay the Advances-Non-Guaranteed Loans and the Term Loan, and shall cause the other Credit Parties to prepay the Advances-Non-Guaranteed Loans and the Term Loan, in each case together with all accrued but unpaid interest thereon, in an amount equal to in the following amounts and at the following times: (i) On the date on which any Credit Party other than Parent (or Administrative Agent as loss payee or assignee) receives any Casualty Proceeds, an amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of such Casualty Proceeds or such payment; provided, that, so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the recipient (other

31 than Administrative Agent) of any Casualty Proceeds may reinvest the amount of such Casualty Proceeds within thirty (30) days in replacement assets comparable to the assets giving rise to such Casualty Proceeds; provided, further that the aggregate amount which may be reinvested by such Credit Party pursuant to the preceding proviso may not exceed $250,000 in any Fiscal Year; and provided, further, that if the applicable Credit Party does not intend to fully reinvest such Casualty Proceeds, or if the thirty (30) day time period set forth in this sentence expires without such Credit Party having reinvested such Casualty Proceeds, Borrower shall prepay such Advances or Loans, as applicable, in an amount equal to such Casualty Proceeds (to the extent not reinvested or intended to be reinvested within such time period); (ii) upon receipt by any Credit Party other than Parent of the proceeds from the issuance and sale of any Debt or equity securities (other than (1) proceeds of Permitted Indebtedness, (2) proceeds from the issuance of equity securities to members of the management of any such Credit Party, (3) proceeds of the issuance to Parent of equity securities of Borrower or any other Credit Party, or (4) Indebtedness of any Credit Party to another Credit Party to the extent expressly permitted by the Loan Documents), an amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the Net Cash Proceeds of such issuance and sale; and (iii) upon receipt by any Credit Party other than Parent of the proceeds of any Asset Sale (other than the proceeds of a Permitted Disposition), an amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the Net Cash Proceeds of such Asset Sale. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each such Credit Party other than Borrower or Parent shall be required to remit amounts set forth in this Section 2.7(g)(i)-(iii) during each Fiscal Year of such Credit Party only in the event and to the extent that the aggregate amount received by that Credit Party during such Fiscal Year of Casualty Proceeds, Net Cash Proceeds from the issuance and sale of Debt or equity securities, and Net Cash Proceeds of Asset Sales of such Credit Party shall exceed $250,000. (iv) Amounts paid pursuant to this Section 2.7(g) shall be applied to the Advanced-Non-Guaranteed Loans and/or the Term Loan on the date deemed received pursuant to Section 2.6(a) and otherwise in such manner as shall be determined by Administrative Agent. (h) Subject to Section 2.1, the Loans may be prepaid in whole or in part at any time from time to time, without penalty or premium; provided, however, that Borrower shall have given Administrative Agent at least ten (10) days prior written notice of the date of such prepayment (or in the case of Swingline Loans, the Borrower shall have given the Swingline Lender notice by 10:00 a.m. on the date of such prepayment). Any prepayment shall be accompanied by all accrued and unpaid interest thereon. Promptly following receipt of any such notice relating to an Advance, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each partial prepayment of any Advance shall be in an amount that would be permitted in the case of an Advance as provided in Section 2.3(b). Each prepayment of an Advance shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in the prepaid Advance, each voluntary prepayment of the Term Loan shall be applied ratably to the Term, in such manner as Administrative Agent shall determine, and each mandatory prepayment of the Term Loan shall be applied in accordance with this Section. Amounts repaid or prepaid in respect of the Term Loan may not be reborrowed.

33 quarter. For the avoidance of doubt, the Swingline Loan shall not be included for purposes of calculating such fees. (d) Borrower shall unconditionally pay to Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender, a late charge equal to five percent (5%) of any and all payments of principal or interest on the Loans that are not paid within fifteen (15) days of the due date. Such late charge shall be due and payable regardless of whether Administrative Agent has accelerated the Secured Obligations, or the Secured Obligations automatically shall become due and payable. Borrower agrees that any late fee payable to Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender, is a reasonable estimate of each Lender’s damages and is not a penalty. 2.10 Use of Proceeds. The proceeds of (a) Advances—Guaranteed Loans and Swingline Loans made on account of Financed Guaranteed Loans shall be used solely to provide Borrower with short-term financing of an amount not to exceed 90% of the SBA 7(a) Guaranteed Note Receivable in respect of each Financed Guaranteed Loan, and (b) Advances—Non- Guaranteed Loans and Swingline Loans made on account of Financed Non-Guaranteed Loans shall be used solely to provide Borrower with short-term financing of an amount not to exceed 55% of the SBA 7(a) Non-Guaranteed Note Receivable in respect of each Financed Non- Guaranteed Loan. 2.11 Requirements of Law. (a) If any Lender shall have determined that the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law regarding capital adequacy or in the interpretation or application thereof or compliance by such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority made subsequent to the date hereof shall have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or such corporation’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder to a level below that which such Lender or such corporation could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such corporation’s policies with respect to capital adequacy as in effect as of the date of this Agreement) by an amount deemed by such Lender to be material, then from time to time, after submission by such Lender to Borrower of a written request therefor, Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such corporation for such reduction; provided, that Borrower shall not be required to compensate such Lender pursuant to this paragraph for any amounts incurred more than six months prior to the date that such Lender notifies Borrower of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor; and provided, further that, if the circumstances giving rise to such claim have a retroactive effect, then such six-month period shall be extended to include the period of such retroactive effect. (b) A certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section submitted by such Lender to Borrower shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. The obligations of Borrower pursuant to this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder. (c) Failure or delay on the part of such Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 2.11 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such

35 Lender’s assignor (if any) was entitled, at the time of assignment, to receive additional amounts from Borrower with respect to such Non-Excluded Taxes pursuant to this paragraph (a). (b) In addition, Borrower shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law. (i) Whenever any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes are payable by Borrower, as promptly as possible thereafter Borrower shall send to Administrative Agent or such Lender a certified copy of an original official receipt received by Borrower showing payment thereof. If Borrower fails to pay any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes when due to the appropriate taxing authority or fails to remit to Administrative Agent or such Lender the required receipts or other required documentary evidence, Borrower shall indemnify Administrative Agent or such Lender for any incremental taxes, interest or penalties that may become payable by Administrative Agent or such Lender as a result of any such failure. The agreements in this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder. (ii) Unless otherwise excluded under the proviso in Section 2.12(a), Borrower agrees to indemnify Administrative Agent or such Lender for, and hold Administrative Agent or such Lender harmless against, (1) the full amount of Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes (including any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 2.12) paid by Administrative Agent or such Lender and (2) any liability (including additions to tax, penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, in each case whether or not such Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. The indemnification payment under this Section 2.12(c) shall be made within thirty (30) days after the date Administrative Agent or such Lender makes a written demand therefor. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to Administrative Agent), or by Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. (iii) Each Lender shall severally indemnify Administrative Agent, within thirty (30) days after demand therefor, for (A) any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that any Credit Party has not already indemnified Administrative Agent for such Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes and without limiting the obligation of Borrower to do so) and (B) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by Administrative Agent to such Lender from any other source against any amount due to Administrative Agent under this paragraph (iii). (iv) If requested by Borrower, Administrative Agent or such Lender shall deliver to Borrower two copies of U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-9, certifying that

37 Administrative Agent), executed originals of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax; and (B) if a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. Federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to Borrower and Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by Borrower or Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by Borrower or Administrative Agent as may be necessary for Borrower and Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement. Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify Borrower and Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so. 2.13 Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders. (a) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.11, or Borrower is required to pay any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.12, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.11 or 2.12, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment. (b) If (i) any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.11, (ii) Borrower is required to pay any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.12 or (iii) any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and Administrative Agent, require such Lender (without waiving any rights or claims against such Defaulting Lender with respect to the events pursuant to which it became a Defaulting Lender hereunder) to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 10.12), all its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments pursuant to Sections 2.11 or 2.12) and obligations under the Loan Documents to a Lender that is not a Defaulting Lender (if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (i) Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of Administrative Agent, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, (ii) such Lender shall have received payment

39 in Swingline Loans are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with their Applicable Percentage without giving effect to Section 2.15(a)(iv). Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto. (iii) Certain Fees. (A) No Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any fees on the unfunded portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Maximum Commitment pursuant to Section 2.9(c) for any period during which such Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and Borrower shall not be required to pay any such fees that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to such Defaulting Lender). (B) Borrower shall (x) pay to each non-Defaulting Lender that portion of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s participation in Swingline Loans that has been reallocated to such non- Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (iv) below, (y) pay to the Swingline Lender the amount of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender to the extent allocable to the Swingline Lender’s Fronting Exposure to such Defaulting Lender and (z) not be required to pay the remaining amount of any such fee. (iv) Reallocation of Participations to Reduce Fronting Exposure. All or any part of such Defaulting Lender’s participation in Swingline Loans shall be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Applicable Percentages (calculated without regard to such Defaulting Lender’s Maximum Commitment) but only to the extent that (x) the conditions set forth in Section 4.4 are satisfied at the time of such reallocation (and, unless Borrower shall have otherwise notified Administrative Agent at such time, Borrower shall be deemed to have represented and warranted that such conditions are satisfied at such time), and (y) such reallocation does not cause the aggregate Maximum Credit Exposure of any non-Defaulting Lender to exceed such non-Defaulting Lender’s Maximum Commitment. No reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Lender having become a Defaulting Lender, including any claim of a non-Defaulting Lender as a result of such non- Defaulting Lender’s increased exposure following such reallocation. (v) Repayment of Swingline Loans. If the reallocation described in clause (iv) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, Borrower shall, without prejudice to any right or remedy available to it hereunder or under law, prepay Swingline Loans in an amount equal to the Swingline Lender’s Fronting Exposure. (b) Defaulting Lender Cure. If Borrower, Administrative Agent and the Swingline Lender agree in writing that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein, that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans

40 and funded and unfunded participations in Swingline Loans to be held pro rata by the Lenders in accordance with their Applicable Percentage (without giving effect to Section 2.15(a)(iv)), whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender having been a Defaulting Lender. (c) New Swingline Loans. So long as any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the Swingline Lender shall not be required to fund any Swingline Loans unless it is satisfied that it will have no Fronting Exposure after giving effect to such Swingline Loan. SECTION III. COLLATERAL 3.1 Collateral. As security for the payment of the Secured Obligations, and satisfaction by Borrower of all covenants and undertakings contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents: (a) Borrower hereby assigns and grants to Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties a continuing Lien on and first priority security interest in, upon and to all assets of Borrower (other than Borrower’s SBA Lender’s License), including any Real Property and including, without limitation, to the following Property, all whether now owned or hereafter acquired, created or arising and wherever located: (i) Accounts - All Accounts; (ii) Chattel Paper - All Chattel Paper; (iii) Documents - All Documents; (iv) Instruments - All Instruments; (v) Inventory - All Inventory; (vi) General Intangibles - All General Intangibles; (vii) Equipment - All Equipment, (viii) Fixtures - All Fixtures; (ix) Deposit Accounts - All Deposit Accounts, including, without limitation, the Blocked Account and all operating accounts of Borrower maintained at or with Administrative Agent, but excluding the Trust Account to the extent prohibited by the Multi- Party Agreement and SBA Rules and Regulations; (x) Goods - All Goods;

74 not be required to execute any such document on terms which, in the Administrative Agent’s opinion, would expose the Administrative Agent to liability or create any obligation or entail any consequence other than the release of such Liens without recourse or warranty, and (ii) such release shall not in any manner discharge, affect or impair the Secured Obligations or any Liens upon (or obligations of the Borrower or any Subsidiary in respect of) all interests retained by the Borrower or any Subsidiary, including (without limitation) the proceeds of the sale, all of which shall continue to constitute part of the Collateral.

The Administrative Agent, on behalf of itself and the Secured Parties, shall have the right to credit bid and purchase for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties all or any portion of the Collateral at any sale thereof conducted by the Administrative Agent under the provisions of the UCC, including pursuant to Sections 9-610 or 9-620 of the UCC, at any sale thereof conducted under the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, including Section 363 thereof, or a sale under a plan of reorganization, or at any other sale or foreclosure conducted by the Administrative Agent (whether by judicial action or otherwise) in accordance with applicable law. Each Lender hereby agrees that, except as otherwise provided in any Loan Documents or with the written consent of the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders, it will not take any enforcement action, accelerate obligations under any Loan Documents, or exercise any right that it might otherwise have under applicable law to credit bid at foreclosure sales, UCC sales or other similar dispositions of the Collateral. No Secured Party that is party to a Treasury Services Agreement that obtains the benefits of Section 2.6(f) or any Collateral with respect to the related Treasury Services Obligations by virtue of the provisions hereof or of any Loan Document shall have any right to notice of any action or to consent to, direct or object to any action hereunder or under any other Loan

75 Document or otherwise in respect of the Collateral (including the release or impairment of any Collateral) other than in its capacity as a Lender and, in such case, only to the extent expressly provided in the Loan Documents. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section IX to the contrary, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to verify the payment of, or that other satisfactory arrangements have been made with respect to, Treasury Services Agreements unless the Administrative Agent has received written notice of such Treasury Services Agreements, together with such supporting documentation as the Administrative Agent may request, from the applicable Secured Party.

THE PROVISIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT AND ALL OTHER AGREEMENTS AND DOCUMENTS REFERRED TO HEREIN ARE TO BE DEEMED SEVERABLE, AND THE INVALIDITY OR UNENFORCEABILITY OF ANY PROVISION SHALL NOT AFFECT OR IMPAIR THE REMAINING PROVISIONS WHICH SHALL CONTINUE IN FULL FORCE AND EFFECT. 10.2 Integrated Agreement. The Notes, the other Loan Documents, all related agreements, and this Agreement shall be construed as integrated and complementary of each other, and as augmenting and not restricting Administrative Agent’s or any Lender’s rights and remedies. If, after applying the foregoing, an inconsistency still exists, the provisions of this Agreement shall constitute an amendment thereto and shall control. 10.3 Waiver; Amendments. (a) No omission or delay by Administrative Agent or any Lender in exercising any right or power under this Agreement or any related agreements and documents will impair such right or power or be construed to be a waiver of any Default, or Event of Default or an acquiescence therein, and any single or partial exercise of any such right or power will not preclude other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, and as to Borrower no waiver will be valid unless in writing and signed by Administrative Agent or such Lender and then only to the extent specified. (b) Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be waived, amended or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by Borrower and the Required Lenders or by Borrower and Administrative Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders; provided that no such agreement shall: (i) increase the Maximum Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender; (ii) reduce the principal amount of any Loan or reduce the rate of interest thereon, or reduce any fees payable hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby;

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement and any other Loan Document may be amended (or amended and restated) with the written consent of the Required Lenders, Administrative Agent and Borrower (x) to add one or more credit facilities to this Agreement and to permit extensions of credit from time to time outstanding thereunder and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof to share ratably in the benefits of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with the Loans and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof and (y) to include appropriately the Lenders holding such credit facilities in any determination of the Required Lenders and Lenders. (d) The Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize Administrative Agent, at its option and in its sole discretion, to release any Liens granted to Administrative Agent by the Credit Parties on any Collateral (i) upon the payment and satisfaction in full in cash of all Secured Obligations (other than Unliquidated Obligations and Treasury Services Obligations), in a manner satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, (ii) constituting property being sold or disposed of if Borrower certifies to Administrative Agent that the sale or disposition is made in compliance with the terms of this Agreement (and Administrative Agent may rely conclusively on any such certificate, without further inquiry), (iii) constituting property leased to Borrower or
