(d) As soon as practicable (and in any event within 60 days) after the date of any payment of Taxes or Other Taxes by any Borrower to the relevant Governmental Authority, the Parent will deliver to each Holder, the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing payment thereof.

(e) Any transferee of the Holders, with respect to the investment hereunder, if organized under the laws of a jurisdiction other than the United States, any State thereof or the District of Columbia (a “Non-U.S. Investor”) shall deliver, to the extent legally able to do so, to the Parent two copies of either United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or Form W-8ECI or other applicable form, and in the case of a Non-U.S. Investor claiming exemption from U.S. Federal withholding tax under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code with respect to payments of “portfolio interest”, a certificate representing that such Non-U.S. Investor is not a bank for purposes of Section 881(c) of the Code, is not a holder of 10% of the Equity Interests (within the meaning of Section 871(h)(3)(B) of the Code) of any Borrower and is not a controlled foreign corporation receiving interest from a related person (within the meaning of Section 864(d)(4) of the Code), properly completed and duly executed by such Non-U.S. Investor claiming exemption from U.S. Federal withholding tax on payments by the Borrowers under this Agreement and the Investment Documents. Such forms shall be delivered by each Non-U.S. Investor on or before the date it becomes a party to this Agreement and on or before the date, if any, such Non-U.S. Investor changes its applicable lending office by designating a different lending office (a “New Lending Office”). In addition, each Non-U.S. Investor shall deliver such forms promptly upon the obsolescence or invalidity of any form previously delivered by such Non-U.S. Investor. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Non-U.S. Investor shall be required to deliver any form pursuant to this paragraph (e) that such Non-U.S. Investor is not legally able to deliver.

(f) The Borrowers shall not be required to indemnify any Non-U.S. Investor or to pay any additional amounts to any Non-U.S. Investor, in respect of United States Federal withholding tax pursuant to paragraph (a) or (c) above to the extent that (i) the obligation to withhold amounts with respect to United States Federal withholding existed on the date such Non-U.S. Investor became a party to this Agreement or, with respect to payments to a New Lending Office, the date such Non-U.S. Investor designated such New Lending Office with respect to the Notes; provided, however, that this paragraph (f)(i) shall not apply to (x) any Non-U.S. Investor as a result of an assignment, participation, transfer or designation made at the request of the Borrowers and (y) to the extent the indemnity payment or additional amounts any Holder would be entitled to receive (without regard to this paragraph (f)) do not exceed the indemnity payment or additional amounts that the Person making the assignment, participation or transfer to such Holder would have been entitled to receive in the absence of such assignment, participation, transfer or designation; (ii) the obligation to pay such additional amounts would not have arisen but for a failure by such Non-U.S. Investor to comply with the provisions of paragraph (e) above; or (iii) such Non-U.S. Investor is treated as a “conduit entity” within the meaning of U.S. Treasury Regulations Section 1.881-3 or any successor provision.

(g) Nothing contained in this Section 2.8 shall require a Holder to make available any of its tax returns (or any other information that it reasonably deems to be confidential or proprietary).

SECTION 2.9 Common Stock. At the Closing, the Parent shall Severally issue and sell to Caltius the Initial Shares as provided in Section 2.1.

SECTION 2.10 Original Issue Discount; Allocation. For purposes of Section 1273 of the Code, the Notes have original issue discount. For purposes of Section 1273 of the Code, the aggregate issue price of the Notes and the Initial Shares is $9,800,000 (which is the difference between the amount funded ($10,000,000) and the funding fee of $200,000 payable pursuant to Section 9.5(a)). For purposes of Section 1275 of the Code, the issue date of the Notes is December 1, 2011 and for purposes of Section 1272 of the Code, the yield to maturity (compounded quarterly) is 16.35%. Pursuant to GAAP consistently applied and U.S. Treasury Regulations, Caltius and the Borrowers agree to allocate $9,202,000 of the issue price to the Notes, $798,000 of the issue price to the Initial Shares, and agree that such allocation reflects the relative fair market values of the Notes and the Initial Shares as of the date hereof. As a result, for purposes of Section 1273 of the Code, the Notes will be issued with an aggregate original issue discount of $798,000 (plus any additional original issue discount attributable to PIK interest that does not constitute Qualified Stated Interest). Caltius and the Borrowers further agree to recognize and adhere to the determinations and allocations of original issue discount and valuation of the Initial Shares set forth herein for all federal and state income tax purposes and file all tax returns in a manner consistent herewith. If the Parent issues the Subsequent Shares, the parties agree to make any appropriate adjustments to the aggregate original issue discount of the Notes to account for the fair market value of the Subsequent Shares.

SECTION 2.11 Use of Proceeds. The Borrowers shall use the proceeds of the investment hereunder to make the Acquisition, pay certain Transaction fees and expenses and for working capital or general corporate purposes of the Borrowers.

Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, each Holder is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time without notice to any Credit Party (any such notice being expressly waived by such Credit Party) and, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, to set off and to apply any and all balances, credits, deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), accounts or moneys at any time held and other Indebtedness at any time owing by such Holder to or for the account of such Credit Party against any and all of the obligations of the Credit Parties now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other agreement or instrument delivered by such Credit Party to such Holder in connection therewith, whether or not such Holder shall have made any demand hereunder or thereunder and although such obligations may be contingent or unmatured. The rights of the Holders under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of set-off) which they may have. A Holder shall give the Credit Party notice of any set-off hereunder after such set-off has occurred.

SECTION 7.6 Remedies Non-Exclusive.

ARTICLE VIII.

THE AGENT

SECTION 8.1 Appointment and Authorization. Each Holder hereby irrevocably appoints, designates and authorizes the Agent to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and each other Loan Document and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to it by the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, the Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein, nor shall the Agent have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Holder, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist against the Agent.

SECTION 8.2 Delegation of Duties. The Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement or any other Loan Document by or through agents, employees or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. The Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agent or attorney-in-fact that it selects with reasonable care.

SECTION 8.3 Liability of the Agent. Neither the Agent nor any of it representatives shall (i) be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document (except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct), or (ii) be responsible in any manner to any of the Holders for any recital, statement, representation or warranty made by any Credit Party or any Subsidiary or Affiliate of any Credit Party, any officer thereof contained in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or the validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or for any failure of any Credit Party or any other party to any Loan Document to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. Neither the Agent nor any of its representatives shall be under any obligation to any Holder to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to inspect the Properties, books or records of any Credit Party or any of the Subsidiaries or Affiliates of any Credit Party.

SECTION 8.4 Reliance by the Agent. The Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telegram, facsimile or telephone message, statement or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to the Borrowers), independent accountants and other experts selected by the Agent. The Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Holders (or, where an action or waiver need only be approved by the Required Holders, by the Required Holders) as it deems appropriate and, if it so requests, it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Holders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. The Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement or any other Loan Document in accordance with a request or consent of the Holders (or, where an action or waiver need only be approved by the Required Holders, by the Required Holders) and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all of the Holders.

SECTION 8.5 Notice of Default. The Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, unless the Agent shall have received written notice from a Holder or the Borrowers referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default”. In the event that the Agent receives such a notice, the Agent shall give notice thereof to the Holders. The Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall be requested by the Required Holders in accordance with Article VIII; provided, however, that unless and until the Agent shall have received any such request, the Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable or in the best interest of the Holders.

SECTION 8.6 Credit Decision. Each Holder expressly acknowledges that neither the Agent nor any of its representatives has made any representation or warranty to it and that no act by the Agent hereinafter taken, including any review of the affairs of any Credit Party and its Subsidiaries shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by the Agent to any Holder. Each Holder represents to the Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Agent and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, prospects, operations, Property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Credit Parties and their Subsidiaries, and all applicable bank regulatory laws relating to the transactions contemplated thereby, and made its own decision to enter into this Agreement and extend credit to the Borrowers hereunder. Each Holder also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Agent and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigations as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, prospects, operations, Property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Credit Parties. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly herein required to be furnished to the Holders by the Agent, the Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Holder with any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, Property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of any Credit Party which may come into the possession of the Agent.

SECTION 8.7 Indemnification. Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby shall be consummated, upon demand therefor the Holders shall indemnify the Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by or on behalf of the Credit Parties and without limiting the obligation of the Credit Parties to do so), ratably from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses and disbursements of any kind whatsoever which may at any time (including at any time following the repayment of the loans hereunder and the termination or resignation of the Agent) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Agent as Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any document contemplated by or referred to herein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by the Agent under or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided, however, that no Holder shall be liable for the payment to the Agent of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements to the extent resulting from the Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. In addition, each Holder shall reimburse the Agent upon demand for its ratable share of any costs or out-of-pocket expenses (including attorney’s fees and expenses) incurred by the Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any document contemplated by or referred to herein to the extent that the Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by or on behalf of the Borrowers. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if the Internal Revenue Service or any other Governmental Authority of the United States or other jurisdiction asserts a claim that the Agent did not properly withhold tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Holder (because the appropriate form was not delivered, was not properly executed, or because such Holder failed to notify the Agent of a change in circumstances which rendered the exemption from, or reduction of, withholding tax ineffective, or for any other reason) such Holder shall indemnify the Agent fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Agent as tax or otherwise, including penalties and interest, and including any taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on the amounts payable to the Agent under this Section 8.7, together with all related costs and expenses (including attorney’s fees and expenses). The obligation of the Holders in this Section 8.7 shall survive the payment of all Obligations hereunder.

SECTION 8.8 Agent in Individual Capacity. Partners and its Affiliates may make loans to, issue letters of credit for the account of, accept deposits from, acquire equity interests in and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory or other business with the Credit Parties and their Subsidiaries and Affiliates as though Partners were not the Agent hereunder and without notice to or consent of the Holders. With respect to the loans hereunder, Partners shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Holder and may exercise the same as though it were not the Agent, and the terms “Holder” and “Holders” shall include Partners in its individual capacity.

SECTION 8.9 Successor Agent. So long as Partners or an Affiliate thereof holds Notes payable to Partners or one of its Affiliates, Partners or one if its Affiliates shall be the Agent. Subject to the preceding sentence, the Agent may resign as the Agent upon 30 days’ prior notice to the Holders and to the Borrowers. If the Agent shall resign as the Agent under this Agreement, the Required Holders shall appoint from among the Holders a successor agent for the Holders. If no successor agent is appointed prior to the effective date of the resignation of the Agent, the Agent may thereupon appoint a successor agent from among the Holders. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as successor agent hereunder, such successor agent shall succeed to all the rights, powers and duties of the retiring the Agent and the term “the Agent” shall mean such successor agent and the retiring Agent’s appointment, powers and duties as the Agent shall be terminated. After any Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder as the Agent, the provisions of this Article VIII shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was the Agent under this Agreement. If no successor agent has accepted appointment as the Agent by the date which is 30 days following a retiring Agent’s notice of resignation (or, if later, 10 days after the date upon which the Agent designates a successor agent), the retiring Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective and the Holders shall perform all of the duties of the Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Holders appoint a successor agent as provided for above.

(a) No failure or delay of a Holder in exercising any power or right hereunder or under any other Investment Document shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Holders hereunder and under the other Investment Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Investment Document or consent to any departure by the Credit Parties therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by Section 9.8(b) below, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given.

OF THE CALIFORNIA CODE OF CIVIL PROCEDURE (“CCP”), OR THEIR SUCCESSOR SECTIONS, WHICH SHALL CONSTITUTE THE EXCLUSIVE REMEDY FOR THE RESOLUTION OF ANY CONTROVERSY, INCLUDING WHETHER THE CONTROVERSY IS SUBJECT TO THE REFERENCE PROCEEDING.

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.

PURSUANT TO CCP SECTION 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.

This Agreement provides for the making of an investment by the Holders, in its capacity as a lender, in the Borrowers, in their capacity as borrowers, and for the payment of interest and repayment of principal by the Borrowers to the Holders. The provisions herein for compliance with financial covenants, if any, and delivery of financial statements are intended solely for the benefit of the Holders to protect their interests as lenders in assuring payments of interest and repayment of principal, and nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed as permitting or obligating the Holders to act as a financial or business advisor or consultant to the Borrowers as permitting or obligating the Holders to control the Borrowers or to conduct the Borrowers’ operations, as creating any fiduciary obligation on the part of the Holders to the Borrowers, or as creating any joint venture, agency or other relationship between the parties other than as explicitly and specifically stated in this Agreement. The Holders are not (and shall not be construed as) a partner, joint venturer, alter-ego, manager, controlling person, operator or other business participant of any kind of the Borrowers; the Holders nor the Borrowers intend that the Holders assume such status, and, accordingly, the Holders shall not be deemed responsible for (or a participant in) any acts or omissions of the Credit Parties. Each of the Holders and the Borrowers represent and warrant to the other that it has had the advice of experienced counsel of its own choosing in connection with the negotiation and execution of this Agreement and with respect to all matters contained herein.

SECTION 9.18 Confidentiality Each of the Holders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed: (a) to its and its Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees, investors and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential); (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority; (c) to the extent required by Applicable Laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process; (d) to any other party to this Agreement; (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or the enforcement of rights hereunder; (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any permitted transferee of any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement, or (ii) any direct or indirect contractual counterparty or prospective counterparty (or such contractual counterparty’s or prospective counterparty’s professional advisor) to any credit derivative transaction relating to obligations of the Borrowers or any of their respective Subsidiaries; (g) with the consent of the applicable Borrower; or (h) to the extent such Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (ii) becomes available to any Holder on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the Borrowers provided that such source is not bound by a confidentiality agreement. For the purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from a Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries relating to such Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or their business, other than any such information that is available to any Holder on a non-confidential basis prior to disclosure by such Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries; provided that, in the case of information received from such Borrower or any Subsidiary after the date hereof, such information is clearly identified (in a reasonable manner) at the time of delivery as confidential. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Holder may (i) disclose a general description of transactions arising under the Investment Documents and the Acquisition Documents for advertising, marketing or other similar purposes, and (ii) use the name of the Credit Parties and their respective logos and other trademarks or other indicia germane to such Person in connection with such Holder’s advertising, marketing or other similar purposes and may identify the Borrowers as portfolio companies of Holder.

SECTION 9.19 Transfer of Notes.

(a) Upon surrender of any Note for transfer or for exchange to the Borrowers at its principal office, the Borrowers at their expense will execute and deliver in exchange therefor a new Note or Notes, as the case may be, of the same type in denominations of at least $50,000 (except a Note may be issued in a lesser principal amount if the unpaid principal amount of the surrendered Note is not evenly divisible by, or is less than, $50,000), as requested by the holder or transferee, which aggregate the unpaid principal amount of such Note, dated so that there will be no loss of interest on such surrendered Note and otherwise of like tenor.

(b) Upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Borrowers of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of any Note and, in the case of any such loss, theft or destruction of any Note, upon delivery of an indemnity bond in such reasonable amount as the Borrowers may determine (or an unsecured indemnity agreement from the Holder reasonably satisfactory to the Borrowers), or, in the case of any such mutilation, upon the surrender of such Note for cancellation to the Borrowers at its principal office, the Borrowers at their expense will execute and deliver, in lieu thereof, a new Note of the same class and of like tenor, dated so that there will be no loss of interest on (and registered in the name of the holder of) such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note. Any Note in lieu of which any such new Note has been so executed and delivered by the Borrowers shall be deemed to be not outstanding for any purpose of this Agreement.

SECTION 9.20 Schedules. No disclosure in the Schedules referred to in this Agreement relating to any possible breach or violation of any agreement, law or regulation shall be construed as an admission or indication that any such breach or violation exists or has actually occurred. The Schedules and the information and disclosures contained therein are intended only to qualify and limit the representations and warranties of the Borrowers contained in this Agreement and shall not be deemed to expand in any way the scope or effect of any such representations and warranties. Where the terms of an agreement or other disclosure item have been summarized or described in the Schedules, such summary or description does not purport to be a complete statement of the material terms of such agreement or other item; provided, however, that in no event shall such summary or description be misleading or contradict the terms of such agreement or other item in any material respect. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Schedules or in the Agreement, each exception disclosed in one Schedule shall be deemed disclosed in each other Schedule provided it is readily apparent on its face that the matter is responsive to the representation to which such other Schedule relates.
