(a) Nature of Credit Facility.

If at any time the sum of the aggregate principal amount of Loans outstanding hereunder exceeds the lesser of the Borrowing Base or the maximum Dollar amount stated above, such amount shall be deemed an “Overadvance.” Debtor shall
immediately repay the amount of such Overadvance plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereon upon written demand from Lender. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, an Overadvance shall be considered a Loan and shall bear interest at the interest rates set forth in the Note and be secured by this Agreement. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, Debtor may borrow, repay and reborrow funds under the Credit Facility. From MAY , 2017 through , upon not less than THIRTY (30) Business Days prior written request from Debtor to Lender, Debtor may request that Lender consider an increase in the maximum principal amount of the Credit Facility (an “Increase Request”).

No Increase Request or Collateral Release Request will be considered by Lender if a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing as of the date of such request. The granting of any Increase Request or Collateral Release Request shall be in Lender’s sole and absolute discretion. Nothing in this Section shall be deemed a commitment by Lender to increase the maximum principal amount of the Credit Facility or to release any Collateral.
