6.	REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES.

Borrower represents and warrants as follows and such representations and warranties shall survive until final payment in full of the Indebtedness and the performance by the Loan Parties of all other obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents:

6.1 Authority. Each Loan Party is a corporation (or other business entity) duly organized and existing in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization; each Loan Party is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which it is required to be qualified to do business, except where the failure to be so qualified would not have a Material Adverse Effect.

6.2 Due Authorization; Non-Contravention; Binding Obligations. Execution, delivery and performance of the applicable Loan Documents to which any Loan Party is a party, are within such Loan Party’s powers, have been duly authorized, are not in contravention of law or such Loan Party’s organizational documents or of the unwaived terms of any material indenture, contract, agreement or undertaking to which such Loan Party is a party or by which it is bound, and do not require the consent or approval of any third party, governmental body, agency or authority; and the Loan Documents and other documents and instruments required thereunder, when issued and delivered, will be valid and binding on such Loan Party in accordance with their terms, except as may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and by general equitable principles (whether enforcement is sought by proceedings in equity or law).

6.3 Good Title; Property; Leases; No Liens. (a) Each Loan Party, to the extent applicable, has good and valid title (or, in the case of real property, good and marketable title) to all assets owned by it, and, each Loan Party has a valid leasehold interest or interest as a licensee in all of its leased real property;

(b)	The real property described in Schedule 6.3(b) hereof constitutes all of the real property owned or leased (including all warehouse locations) by the Loan Parties on the Effective Date;

(c)	On the Effective Date, the Loan Parties will own or have a valid leasehold interest in all assets necessary for the continued operation of Borrower’s and its Subsidiaries’ business in substantially the same manner as immediately prior to the Effective Date;

(e)	There are no security interests, Liens, mortgages, or other encumbrances on and no financing statements on file with respect to any of the assets owned by the Loan Parties, except for the Liens permitted pursuant to Section 8.5 of this Agreement;

(f)	There are no defaults by any party under any real property lease agreement which, either singly or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; each real property lease agreement is the valid and binding obligation of the Persons party thereto; and

(g)	All real property leases (and all amendments thereto) of the Loan Parties in effect on the Effective Date shall have been delivered to Bank prior to the date hereof.

6.4 No Litigation. No litigation or other proceeding before any court or administrative agency is pending, or to the best knowledge of the officers of the Borrower is threatened against any Loan Party, the outcome of which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. There is not outstanding against any Loan Party any judgment, decree, injunction, rule, or order of any court, government, department, commission, agency, instrumentality or arbitrator nor is any Loan Party in violation of any applicable law, regulation, ordinance, order, injunction, decree or requirement of any governmental body or court where such matters would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

6.5 Compliance with Laws. Except as disclosed on Schedule 6.5, each Loan Party has complied with all applicable federal, state and local laws, ordinances, codes, rules, regulations and guidelines (including consent decrees and administrative orders) including but not limited to Environmental Laws, and the requirements of its own organizational documents except to the extent that failure to comply therewith could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Neither the extension of credit made pursuant to this Agreement or the use of the proceeds thereof will violate the Trading with the Enemy Act, as amended, nor any of the foreign assets control regulations of the United States Treasury Department (31 CFR, Subtitle B, Chapter V, as amended) or any enabling legislation or executive order relating thereto, or The United and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism (USA Patriot Act) Act of 2001, Public Law 10756, October 26, 2001 or Executive Order 13224 of September 23, 2001 issued by the President of the United States (66 Fed. Reg. 49049 (2001)).

6.6 ERISA. No Loan Party maintains or contributes to any employee pension benefit plan subject to title IV of ERISA, except those set forth in attached Schedule 6.6 (each, a “Pension Plan”). There is no material unfunded past service liability of any Pension Plan maintained by any Loan Party, and there is no “accumulated funding deficiency” within the meaning of Section 302 of ERISA, or any existing material liability with respect to any Pension Plan owed to the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation (“PBGC”) or any successor thereto, except any funding deficiency for which an application to the PBGC for waiver is pending or for which a waiver has been granted by the PBGC.

6.7 Accuracy of Information. The financial statements of the Seller delivered to Bank dated as of December 31, 2013 fairly present in all material respects the financial condition of Seller as of such date. The projections and pro forma financial information delivered to Bank with respect to the Acquisition is based upon good faith estimates and assumptions believed by management of the Borrower to be accurate and reasonable at the time made. Since said date there has been no material adverse change in the financial condition of Borrower and its Consolidated Subsidiaries. To the best of the knowledge of the Borrower’s officers, Borrower and its Consolidated Subsidiaries do not have any material contingent obligations (including any liability for taxes) not disclosed by or reserved against in the balance sheet previously delivered to Bank and dated as of December 31, 2013, except as otherwise disclosed to Bank in writing prior to the Effective Date. There are no material unrealized or anticipated losses from any present commitment of Borrower or any of its Consolidated Subsidiaries that are not disclosed by or reserved against in the opening balance sheet delivered to Bank dated as of January 31, 2014, or otherwise disclosed to Bank in writing prior to the Effective Date.

6.8 Taxes. All material tax returns and tax reports of the Loan Parties required by law to have been filed have been duly filed or extensions in respect thereof have been obtained, and all material taxes, assessments and other governmental charges or levies (other than those presently payable without penalty and those currently being contested in good faith for which adequate reserves have been established) upon any Loan Party (or any of its properties) which are due and payable and for which the failure to pay would have a materially adverse effect on such Loan Party’s business or the value of its property or assets have been paid. The charges, accruals and reserves on the books of the Loan Parties in respect of U.S. Federal income tax for all periods are adequate in the opinion of the Borrower.

6.9 Subsidiaries. As of the Effective Date, Borrower has no Subsidiaries except as listed in Schedule 6.9.

6.10 Environmental and Safety Matters. Except as set forth in Schedule 6.10 and except for such matters as are not likely to have a Material Adverse Effect:

(a)	all facilities and property owned or leased by the Loan Parties are in compliance with all Environmental Laws;

(b)	Borrower has not received notice from any Person alleging that the Loan Parties or the facilities and property owned or leased by the Loan Parties are in violation of any Environmental Law;

(c)	Borrower has no knowledge of and has not received any written request for information or any written notice that any Loan Party is a potentially responsible party under any Environmental Law; and

(d)	Borrower has no knowledge of any conditions at, on or under any property now or previously owned or leased by the Loan Parties which, with the passage of time, or the giving of notice or both, would give rise to liability of the Loan Parties under any Environmental Law.

6.11 No Investment Company or Margin Stock. No Loan Party is an “investment company” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. No Loan Party is engaged principally, or as one of its important activities, directly or indirectly, in the business of extending credit for the purpose of purchasing or carrying margin stock, and none of the proceeds of any of the loans hereunder will be used, directly or indirectly, for any purpose which would violate the provisions of Regulation U or X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. Terms for which meanings are provided in Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System or any regulations substituted therefor, as from time to time in effect, are used in this paragraph with such meanings.

9.2 Exercise of Remedies. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing hereunder: (a) Bank may declare the entire unpaid principal Indebtedness, immediately due and payable, without presentment, notice or demand, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Borrower; (b) upon the occurrence of any Event of Default specified in subsection 9.1(j), above, and notwithstanding the lack of any declaration by Bank, the entire unpaid principal Indebtedness shall become automatically and immediately due and payable; and (c) Bank may exercise any remedy permitted by this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or law.

9.3 Application of Proceeds. All of the Indebtedness shall constitute one loan secured by Bank’s security interest in the Collateral and by all other security interests, mortgages, Liens, claims, and encumbrances now and from time to time hereafter granted by any Loan Party to Bank. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to the extent permissible under applicable law, Bank may in its sole discretion apply the Collateral to any portion of the Indebtedness. The proceeds of any sale or other disposition of the Collateral authorized by this Agreement shall be applied by Bank, first upon all expenses authorized by the Michigan Uniform Commercial Code (or other applicable law) or otherwise in connection with the sale and all reasonable attorneys’ fees and legal expenses incurred by Bank; the balance of the proceeds of such sale or other disposition shall be applied in the payment of the Indebtedness, first to interest, then to principal, then to other Indebtedness and the surplus, if any, shall be paid over to the applicable Loan Party or to such other Person or Persons as may be entitled thereto under applicable law. Borrower shall remain liable for any deficiency, which Borrower shall pay to Bank immediately upon demand.

9.4 Rights Cumulative. The remedies provided for herein are cumulative to the remedies for collection of the Indebtedness as provided by law, in equity or by any mortgage, security agreement or other document contemplated hereby. Nothing herein contained is intended, nor shall it be construed, to preclude Bank from pursuing any other remedy for the recovery of any other sum to which Bank may be or become entitled for the breach of this Agreement by Borrower.

9.5 Set-Off. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, Bank may at any time and from time to time, without notice to Borrower (any requirement for such notice being expressly waived by Borrower), set off and apply against any and all of the obligations of Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement, any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by Bank to or for the credit or the account of Borrower, irrespective of whether or not such deposits held or indebtedness owing by Bank may be contingent and unmatured and regardless of whether any Collateral then held by Bank is adequate to cover the Indebtedness. Promptly following any such setoff, Bank shall give written notice to Borrower of the occurrence thereof. Borrower hereby grant to Bank a Lien on and security interest in all such deposits, indebtedness and property as collateral security for the payment and performance of all of the obligations of Borrower under this Agreement. The rights of Bank under this Section 9.5 are in addition to the other rights and remedies (including, without limitation, other rights of setoff) which Bank may have.

9.6 Waiver of Defaults. No Event of Default may be waived by Bank except in a writing signed by an officer of Bank. No single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder, nor any delay in the exercise thereof, shall preclude other or further exercise of its rights by Bank. No waiver of any Event of Default shall extend to any other or further Event of Default. No forbearance on the part of Bank in enforcing any of its rights shall constitute a waiver of any of its rights. Borrower expressly agrees that this Section 9.6 may not be waived or modified by Bank by course of performance, estoppel or otherwise.

9.7 Waiver by Borrower of Certain Laws. To the extent permitted by applicable law, Borrower hereby agrees to waive, and does hereby absolutely and irrevocably waive and relinquish the benefit and advantage of any valuation, stay, appraisement, extension or redemption laws now existing or which may hereafter exist, which, but for this provision, might be applicable to any sale made under the judgment, order or decree of any court, on any claim for interest on the Notes, or any security interest or mortgage contemplated by or granted under or in connection with this Agreement. These waivers have been voluntarily given, with full knowledge of the consequences thereof.

10.	MISCELLANEOUS.

10.1 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the Borrower and Bank and their respective successors and assigns, except that neither the credit provided for under this Agreement nor any part thereof nor any obligation of Bank hereunder shall be assignable or otherwise transferable by the Borrower, and no assignment by the Borrower of its rights or duties hereunder shall be made (or be effective) in either case, without the prior written approval of Bank.

10.2 Costs and Expenses. Borrower shall pay all reasonable closing costs and expenses, including, by way of description and not limitation, reasonable house and outside attorney fees (without duplication of fees and expenses for the same services), Lien search fees, approval fees and title policy fees incurred by Bank in connection with the commitment, consummation and closing of this Agreement. All of said amounts required to be paid by Borrower may be charged by Bank as an advance against the proceeds of the Notes. All costs, including reasonable attorney fees incurred by Bank in protecting or enforcing any of its or any of Bank’s rights against Borrower or any Collateral or in defending Bank from any claims or liabilities by any party or otherwise incurred by Bank in connection with a Default or an Event of Default or the enforcement of this Agreement or the related documents, including by way of description and not limitation, such charges in any court or bankruptcy proceedings or arising out of any claim or action by any person against Bank which would not have been asserted were it not for Bank’s relationship with Borrower hereunder, shall also be paid by Borrower.

10.3 Accounting Principles. Where the character or amount of any asset or liability or item of income or expense is required to be determined or any consolidation or other accounting computation is required to be made for the purposes of this Agreement, it shall be done in accordance with GAAP.

10.4 Indulgence. No delay or failure of Bank in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall affect such right, power or privilege, nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any further exercise thereof, or the exercise of any other power, right or privilege. The rights of Bank under this Agreement are cumulative and not exclusive of any right or remedies which Bank would otherwise have.

Bank may, but shall not be required to, take any action on the basis of any notice given to it by telephone, but Borrower shall promptly confirm such notice in writing or by facsimile, and such notice will not be deemed to have been received until such confirmation is deemed received in accordance with the provisions of this Section set forth above.

10.6 Law of Michigan; Consent to Jurisdiction. This Agreement and the Notes have been delivered at Detroit, Michigan, and shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Michigan. Whenever possible each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement. Borrower and Bank hereby irrevocably submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any United States Federal Court or Michigan state court sitting in Detroit, Michigan in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents and Borrower and Bank hereby irrevocably agree that all claims in respect of such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in any such United States Federal Court or Michigan state court. Borrower irrevocably consent to the service of any and all process in any such action or proceeding brought in any court in or of the State of Michigan by the delivery of copies of such process to Borrower at its addresses specified herein or by certified mail directed to such address or such other address as may be designated by the Borrower in a notice to the other parties that complies as to delivery with the terms of Section 10.5. Nothing in this Section shall affect the right of Bank to serve process in any other manner permitted by law or limit the right of Bank to bring any such action or proceeding against any Loan Party or any of its or their property in the courts with subject matter jurisdiction of any other jurisdiction. Borrowers hereby irrevocably waive any objection to the laying of venue of any such suit or proceeding in the above described courts.

10.7 Amendment and Waiver. No amendments or waiver of any provisions of this Agreement nor consent to any departure by Borrower therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by Bank and the Borrower, and then such amendment, waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given. No amendment, waiver or consent with respect to any provision of this Agreement shall affect any other provision of this Agreement.

10.8 Payments. (a) All sums payable by Borrower to Bank under this Agreement or the other documents contemplated hereby shall be paid directly to Bank at its principal office set forth in Section 10.5 hereof in immediately available United States funds, without set off, deduction or counterclaim. In its sole discretion if a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Bank may charge any and all deposit or other accounts (including without limit an account evidenced by a certificate of deposit) of Borrower with Bank for all or a part of any Indebtedness then due; provided, however, that this authorization shall not affect Borrower’s obligation to pay, when due, any Indebtedness whether or not account balances are sufficient to pay amounts due.

(b)

Any payment of the Indebtedness made by mail will be deemed tendered and received only upon actual receipt by Bank at the address designated for such payment, whether or not Bank has authorized payment by mail or any other manner, and shall not be deemed to have been made in a timely manner unless received on the date due for such payment, time being of the essence. Borrower expressly assumes all risks of loss or liability resulting from non-delivery or delay of delivery of any item of payment transmitted by mail or in any other manner. Acceptance by Bank of any payment in an amount less than the amount then due shall be deemed an acceptance on account only, and the failure to pay the entire amount then due shall be and continue to be a Default or an Event of Default, and at any time thereafter and until the entire amount then due has been paid, Bank shall be entitled to exercise any and all rights conferred upon it herein upon the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Borrower waives the right to direct the application of any and all payments at any time or times hereafter received by Bank from or on behalf of such Borrower. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Borrower agrees that Bank shall have the continuing exclusive right to apply and to reapply any and all payments received at any time or times hereafter against the Indebtedness in such manner as Bank may deem advisable, notwithstanding any entry by Bank upon any of its books and records. Borrower expressly agrees that to the extent that Bank receives any payment or benefit and such payment or benefit, or any part thereof, is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or is required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver, or any other party under any bankruptcy act, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause, then to the extent of such payment or benefit, the Indebtedness or part thereof intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment or benefit had not been made and, further, any such repayment by Bank, to the extent that Bank did not directly receive a corresponding cash payment, shall be added to and be additional Indebtedness payable upon demand by Bank.

10.9 Interest. In the event Borrower’s obligation to pay interest on the principal balance of the Notes is or becomes in excess of the maximum interest rate which Borrower is permitted by law to contract or agree to pay, giving due consideration to the execution date of this Agreement, then, in that event, the rate of interest applicable shall be deemed to be immediately reduced to such maximum rate and all previous payments in excess of such maximum rate shall be deemed to have been payments in reduction of principal and not of interest.

10.10 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. BORROWER AND BANK ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IS A CONSTITUTIONAL ONE, BUT THAT IT MAY BE WAIVED. EACH PARTY, AFTER CONSULTING (OR HAVING HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO CONSULT) WITH COUNSEL OF THEIR CHOICE, KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY, AND FOR THEIR MUTUAL BENEFIT WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION REGARDING THE PERFORMANCE OR ENFORCEMENT OF, OR IN ANY WAY RELATED TO, THIS AGREEMENT OR THE INDEBTEDNESS.

10.11 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts, and each executed copy shall constitute an original instrument, but such counterparts together shall constitute but one and the same instrument.

10.12 Complete Agreement; Conflicts. This Agreement, the Notes and any Requests for Advance hereunder, and the other Loan Documents contain the entire agreement of the parties hereto, superseding all prior agreements, discussions and understandings relating to the subject matter hereof, and none of the parties shall be bound by anything not expressed in writing. In the event of any conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, this Agreement shall govern.

10.13 Severability. In case any one or more of the obligations of any Loan Party under this Agreement, the Notes or any of the other Loan Documents shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining obligations of such Loan Party shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby, and such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability in one jurisdiction shall not affect the validity, legality or enforceability of the obligations of such Loan Party under this Agreement, the Notes or any of the other Loan Documents in any other jurisdiction.

10.14 Independence of Covenants. Each covenant hereunder shall be given independent effect (subject to any exceptions stated in such covenant) so that if a particular action or condition is not permitted by any such covenant (taking into account any such stated exception), the fact that it would be permitted by an exception to, or would be otherwise within the limitations of, another covenant shall not avoid the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default.

10.15 Reliance on and Survival of Various Provisions. All terms, covenants, agreements, representations and warranties of any Loan Party to any of the Loan Documents made herein or in any of the Loan Documents or in any certificate, report, financial statement or other document furnished by or on behalf of any Loan Party in connection with this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents shall be deemed to have been relied upon by Bank, notwithstanding any investigation heretofore or hereafter made by Bank, and those covenants and agreements of the Borrower set forth in Section 10.16 hereof (together with any other indemnities of any Loan Party contained elsewhere in this Agreement or in any of the other Loan Documents) shall survive the repayment in full of the Indebtedness and the termination of the Commitment.

10.16 Indemnification. (a) Borrower agree to indemnify and hold Bank harmless from all loss, damage, liability and reasonable expenses and costs, including reasonable house and outside attorneys’ fees and disbursements (but without duplication of fees and expenses for the same services), incurred by Bank by reason of any breach of any representation or warranty, covenant or agreement of the Loan Parties in this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents, including the occurrence of any Default or an Event of Default, or by reason of enforcing the obligations of any Loan Party under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or in the prosecution or defense of any action or proceeding concerning any matter growing out of or connected with this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents, excluding, however, any loss, cost, damage, liability or expenses arising solely as a result of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the party seeking to be indemnified under this Section 10.16(a). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower shall not be responsible for the fees and expenses of more than one outside counsel in each jurisdiction or state in which Bank shall retain counsel.

Borrower agrees to defend, indemnify and hold harmless Bank, and its respective employees, agents, officers and directors from and against any and all claims, demands, penalties, fines, liabilities, settlements, damages, reasonable costs or reasonable expenses of whatever kind or nature (including without limitation, reasonable attorneys and consultants fees, investigation and laboratory fees, environmental studies required by Bank in connection with the violation of Environmental Laws, court costs and litigation expenses, excluding however, those arising solely as a result of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Person seeking indemnification, as the case may be) arising out of or related to (i) the presence, use, disposal, release or threatened release of any Hazardous Materials on, from or affecting any premises owned or occupied by any Loan Party in violation of or non-compliance with applicable Environmental Laws, (ii) any personal injury (including wrongful death) or property damage (real or personal) arising out of or related to such Hazardous Materials, (iii) any lawsuit or other proceeding brought or threatened, settlement reached or governmental order or decree relating to such Hazardous Materials, (iv) the cost of remediation or monitoring of all Hazardous Materials in violation of or non-compliance with applicable Environmental Laws from all or any portion of any premises owned by any Loan Party, (v) complying or coming into compliance with all Environmental Laws and/or (vi) any violation of Environmental Laws. The obligations of Borrower under this Section 10.16(b) shall be in addition to any and all other obligations and liabilities Borrower may have to Bank at common law or pursuant to any other agreement.

10.17 Prepayment of Here to Serve Notes. Bank acknowledges that Borrower and/or Holdings may request Bank’s consent to the voluntary prepayment of the Here to Serve Notes. Bank has agreed to give its consent to such a prepayment so long as (a) Borrower and Holdings have provided to Bank evidence satisfactory to Bank that Holdings has received net proceeds of an equity issuance in an amount not less than $5,000,000, (b) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and (c) Borrower complies with the provisions of Section 4.5 of this Agreement.
