II. GENERAL TERMS

Section 2.01 Term Loan.

(a) Term Loan. Subject at all times to all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each Lender hereby severally agrees as to itself only (and not on behalf of any other Lender) to make a term loan to the Borrower in such Lender’s applicable Pro Rata Share of the Aggregate Term Loan Commitment (collectively, the “Term Loan”).  The Term Loan shall be borrowed in a single borrowing on the Closing Date, and the Term Loan Commitment of each Lender shall terminate concurrently with the making of the Term Loan on the Closing Date by each such Lender.  Any principal amounts repaid in respect of the Term Loan may not be reborrowed. Neither any Lender nor the Agent shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to fund its Pro Rata Share of the Term Loan required hereunder.

(b) Amortization. Unless sooner due and payable by reason of acceleration resulting from an Event of Default, the outstanding principal balance of the Term Loan shall be due and payable (i) in quarterly installments on the first (1st) day of each Fiscal Quarter, commencing on July 1, 2018, in an amount equal to the Applicable Amortization Payment and (ii) in a final installment due and payable on the Maturity Date, in an amount equal to the entire remaining balance; provided, that the quarterly installment otherwise owed on July 1, 2020 may be paid no later than August 1, 2020.  Such payments of the outstanding principal balance of the Term Loan shall be made for the account of each Lender according to its Pro Rata Share thereof. The Borrower shall pay the outstanding principal balance of the Term Loan in full on the Maturity Date.  

(c) Voluntary Prepayments. All or any portion of the unpaid principal balance of the Term Loan, together with all accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount being prepaid, may at the Borrower’s option be prepaid in whole or in part, at any time or from time to time, upon five (5) Business Days’ prior written notice to the Agent, with payment accompanied by a Prepayment Premium, if any, as provided in Section 2.02(d).

(d) Mandatory Prepayments. The Borrower shall be required to prepay the unpaid principal balance of the Term Loan (x) with respect to any Prepayment Event of the type set forth in clause (g) of the definition thereof, no later than the earlier of (i) 45 days after the end

-27-

of each Fiscal Quarter and (ii) the date of delivery of the financial statements described in Section 5.04(b); provided, that no such prepayment shall be required for the Fiscal Quarter ending March 31, 2020, (y) with respect to any Prepayment Event of the type set forth in clauses (a), (b) and (e) of the definition thereof, on or before the date (including on any date on or prior to the No Call Period End Date) that is three (3) Business Days following the date of receipt by any Loan Party of any proceeds from such Prepayment Event (and on or before the date that is three (3) Business Days following any date thereafter on which any other proceeds subject thereto are received by any Loan Party), and (z) with respect to any other Prepayment Event, on the date (including on any date on or prior to the No Call Period End Date) of receipt by any Loan Party of any proceeds from such Prepayment Event (and on any date thereafter on which any other proceeds subject thereto are received by any Loan Party), in each case without any demand or notice from the Agent, Lenders or any other Person, all of which is hereby expressly waived by the Borrower, in the amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the proceeds (other than with respect to any Prepayment Event of the type set forth in clause (g) of the definition thereof, net of documented reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the collection of such proceeds, in each case payable to Persons that are not Affiliates or Sponsor Affiliates) received by any Loan Party with respect to such Prepayment Event; provided that with respect to a Prepayment Event of the type described in clause (b) of the definition of Prepayment Event, so long as no Event of Default exists, to the extent that the proceeds received by such Person as a result of such Prepayment Event do not exceed $150,000 in the aggregate during the applicable Fiscal Year (or, in the case of any Prepayment Event of the type described in clause (b) of the definition of Prepayment Event resulting from an act of God, flood or fire, do not exceed $750,000 in the aggregate during the applicable Fiscal Year) and are actually applied within 180 days of such receipt to (I) replace the property or assets subject to such Prepayment Event with property and/or assets performing the same or similar functions or (II) repair, replace or reconstruct property and or assets damaged by such Prepayment Event, such proceeds shall not be required to prepay the Term Loan pursuant to this Section 2.01(d).  Any such prepayment shall be accompanied by a Prepayment Premium, if any, as provided in Section 2.02(d). For the sake of clarity, the foregoing shall not be deemed to be implied consent to any sale or other event or occurrence giving rise to a Prepayment Event.

(e) Application of Applicable Amortization Payments and Prepayments. All voluntary and mandatory prepayments of the Term Loan shall be applied to the Applicable Amortization Payments in inverse order of maturity.

(f) Term Notes. Upon the request of any Lender, such Lender’s Pro Rata Share the Term Loan shall be evidenced by a Term Note of the Borrower payable to such Lender or its registered assigns substantially in the form of Exhibit A attached hereto.  The terms of such Term Note, if any, are incorporated into this Agreement by this reference.

Section 2.02 Interest, Certain Payments, Fees and Premiums.

(a) Interest. The Borrower shall pay the Agent on behalf of the Lenders interest on the principal balance of the Term Loan outstanding from time to time from the date hereof until the date that all of the Term Loan has been paid in full and each of the Loan Documents have been terminated at the rate equal to the LIBOR Rate (or to the extent provided in Section 2.13, the Base Rate) plus the Applicable Margin (the “Interest Rate”); provided, however, that the Interest Rate shall be increased by three percent (3.00%) (“Default Rate

-28-

Interest”) (1) automatically (without the need for any election or notice) upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default under Section 7.01(g) or 7.01(h) and (2) at the election of Agent or the Required Lenders upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any other Event of Default, which such election under this clause (2) shall be evidenced by the Agent or the Required Lenders delivering written notice of such election to Borrower (it being understood and agreed that Agent or the Required Lenders shall be permitted to elect to have Default Rate Interest provided for in this clause (2) apply retroactively back to the date any then existing Event of Default first occurred). All interest shall be due and payable monthly in arrears on the first Business Day of each calendar month and on the Maturity Date, and shall be computed on the daily unpaid balance of the Term Loan, based on a three hundred sixty (360) day year, counting the actual number of days elapsed.

(b) Closing Payment. The Borrower shall pay the Closing Payment to the Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders based on their Pro Rata Shares thereof, on the Closing Date upon the execution and delivery of this Agreement as compensation for the making of the Term Loan on the Closing Date (and not be counted as a repayment of the Term Loan).  The Closing Payment shall be deemed fully earned upon the parties’ execution and delivery of this Agreement, and shall not be refundable in whole or in part and shall not be subject to reduction or set-off under any circumstances. The parties agree that for federal and state income tax purposes, the Closing Payment shall be treated as an adjustment to issue price of the Term Loan in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.1273-2(g)(2), and the parties will file all their tax returns (including information returns) in a manner consistent with this Section 2.02(b) unless there is a “determination” within the meaning of Code section 1313 to the contrary.

(c) Other Payments. The Borrower shall further pay to the Agent the amounts set forth in the Agent Payments Letter.

(d) Prepayment Premium. In the event that any Voluntary Act Prepayment (other than any regularly scheduled principal amortization payments specifically provided for in Section 2.01(b)) of all or any portion of the Term Loan is made or is required to be made for any reason whatsoever prior to the Maturity Date (including as a result of any acceleration of the Term Loan resulting from an Event of Default, a foreclosure and sale of Collateral, any sale of Collateral in any bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding, a mandatory prepayment or a voluntary prepayment), in addition to the payment of the subject principal amount and all unpaid accrued interest thereon, the Borrower shall be required to pay to the Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders based on their respective Pro Rata Shares thereof, a Prepayment Premium (as liquidated damages and compensation for the costs of the Lenders being prepared to make funds available hereunder with respect to the Term Loan) in an amount equal to (i) if such Voluntary Act Prepayment is made on or before the No Call Period End Date, the greater of (x) the Make Whole Amount with respect to the Affected Principal Amount subject to such Voluntary Act Prepayment and (y) five percent (5.00%) with respect to the Affected Principal Amount subject to such Voluntary Act Prepayment, (ii) if such Voluntary Act Prepayment is made after the No Call Period End Date but before the Second Amendment Effective Date, an amount equal to three percent (3.00%) of the Affected Principal Amount subject to such Voluntary Act Prepayment, (iii) if such Voluntary Act Prepayment is made on or after the Second Amendment Effective Date but on or before the third (3^rd) anniversary of the Closing Date, an amount equal to one percent (1.00%) of the Affected Principal Amount subject to such Voluntary Act Prepayment, or (iv) if such Voluntary Act Prepayment is made after the third (3^rd) anniversary of

-29-

the Closing Date, an amount equal to zero percent (0%) of the Affected Principal Amount subject to such Voluntary Act Prepayment.  Each such Prepayment Premium shall be deemed fully earned, and due and payable, upon each such date that such Voluntary Act Prepayment made, or (if earlier) is required to be made, and shall not be refundable in whole or in part and shall not be subject to reduction or set-off under any circumstances. Borrower acknowledges and agrees that (x) the provisions of this Section 2.02(d) shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any rescission by Agent or Required Lenders of an acceleration with respect to all or any portion of the Obligations pursuant to Section 7.02 or otherwise, (y) payment of any Prepayment Premium under this Section 2.02(d) constitutes liquidated damages and not a penalty and (z) the actual amount of damages to the Agent and the Lenders or profits lost by the Agent and the Lenders as a result of such Voluntary Act Prepayment would be impracticable and extremely difficult to ascertain, and the Prepayment Premium under this Section 2.02(d) is provided by mutual agreement of the Borrower, Agent and Lenders as a reasonable estimation and calculation of such lost profits or damages of the Agent and the Lenders.

(e) Clearance. Payments received by Agent in respect of the Obligations after 12:00 noon New York time on any day shall be deemed to be received on the next succeeding Business Day, and if any payment is received by Agent other than by wire transfer of immediately available funds, such payment shall be subject to three (3) Business Days’ clearance prior to being credited to the Obligations for interest calculation purposes.

Section 2.03 Use of Proceeds. The Borrower shall utilize the proceeds of the Term Loan solely (a) to refinance, in full on the Closing Date, the Indebtedness under the Existing Agreement, (b) to fund working capital growth and other general corporate purposes of the Borrower and (c) to pay Transaction Costs.  

Section 2.04 Further Obligations / Maximum Lawful Rate. With respect to all Obligations for which the interest rate is not otherwise specified herein (whether such Obligations arise hereunder or under other Loan Documents, or otherwise), such Obligations shall bear interest at the highest rate(s) in effect from time to time with respect to the Term Loan and shall be payable upon demand by the Agent.  In no event shall the interest or other amounts charged with respect to the Term Loan or any other Obligation exceed the maximum amount permitted under Applicable Law.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or elsewhere, if at any time the rate of interest payable or other amounts hereunder or under any other Loan Document (the “Stated Rate”) would exceed the highest rate of interest or other amount permitted under any Applicable Law to be charged (the “Maximum Lawful Rate”), then for so long as the Maximum Lawful Rate would be so exceeded, the rate of interest and other amounts payable shall be equal to the Maximum Lawful Rate; provided, that if at any time thereafter the Stated Rate is less than the Maximum Lawful Rate, Borrower shall, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, continue to pay interest and such other amounts at the Maximum Lawful Rate until such time as the total interest and other such amounts received is equal to the total interest and other such amounts which would have been received had the Stated Rate been (but for the operation of this provision) the interest rate payable or such other amounts payable.  Thereafter, the interest rate and such other amounts payable shall be the Stated Rate unless and until the Stated Rate again would exceed the Maximum Lawful Rate, in which event this provision shall again apply.  In no event shall the total interest or other such amounts received by the Agent or any Lender exceed the amount which it could lawfully have received had the interest and other such amounts been calculated for the full term hereof at the Maximum Lawful Rate. If,

-30-

notwithstanding the prior sentence, the Agent or any Lender has received interest or other such amounts hereunder in excess of the Maximum Lawful Rate, such excess amount shall be applied to the reduction of the principal balance of the Term Loan or to other Obligations (other than interest) payable hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, and if no such principal or other Obligations are then outstanding, such excess or part thereof remaining shall be paid to the Borrower.  In computing interest payable with reference to the Maximum Lawful Rate applicable to the Agent or any Lender, such interest shall be calculated at a daily rate equal to the Maximum Lawful Rate divided by the number of days in the year in which such calculation is made.

Section 2.05 Application of Payments. All amounts paid to or received by the Agent in respect of the Obligations, from whatever source (whether from any Loan Party pursuant to this Agreement, the Loan Party Guaranty, or any other Loan Document, any realization upon any Collateral or otherwise) shall, unless otherwise directed by the Borrower with respect to any particular payment (provided, if an Event of Default is then in existence, the Agent may disregard the Borrower’s direction), be applied by the Agent to the Obligations in such order as the Agent may elect when no Acceleration Event is in existence, and while an Acceleration Event is in existence (or absent such election by Agent when no Acceleration Event is in existence) shall be applied as follows:

(A)FIRST, to the payment of all fees (other than the Prepayment Premium), costs, expenses and indemnities then owing to Agent under this Agreement or any other Loan Document;

(B)SECOND, to the payment of all accrued and unpaid interest then owing to Agent in respect of any Agent Advances, until paid in full;

(C)THIRD, to the payment of all principal then owing to Agent in respect of any Agent Advances, until paid in full;

(D)FOURTH, to the payment of all fees (other than the Prepayment Premium), costs, expenses and indemnities then due and owing to Lenders in respect of the Term Loan, pro rata based on each Lender’s Pro Rata Share thereof, until paid in full;

(E)FIFTH, to the payment of all accrued and unpaid interest then due and owing to Lenders in respect of the Term Loan, pro rata based on each Lender’s Pro Rata Share thereof, until paid in full;

(F)SIXTH, pro rata to the payment of all principal of the Term Loan then due and owing, pro rata based on each Lender’s Pro Rata Share thereof, until paid in full;

(G)SEVENTH, to the payment of the Prepayment Premium then due and owing, pro rata based on each Lender’s Pro Rata Share thereof, until paid in full; and

(H)EIGHTH, pro rata to the payment of all other Obligations then owing, until paid in full.

-31-

Section 2.06 Obligations Unconditional/Withholding Taxes; Changes in Law.

(a) Obligations Unconditional/Withholding Taxes. The payment and performance of all Obligations shall constitute the absolute and unconditional obligations of the Borrower, and shall be independent of any defense or rights of set-off, recoupment or counterclaim which the Borrower or any other Person might otherwise have against the Agent, any Lender or any other Person.  All payments required (other than by the Agent to any Lender, or by the Agent or any Lender to any Loan Party) by this Agreement and/or the other Loan Documents shall be made in Dollars (unless payment in a different currency is expressly provided otherwise in the applicable Loan Document) and paid free of any deductions or withholdings for any taxes or other amounts and without abatement, diminution or set-off.  If any Loan Party is required by Applicable Law to make such a deduction or withholding from a payment hereunder or under any other Loan Document, such Loan Party shall pay to the Agent such additional amount as is necessary to ensure that, after the making of such deduction or withholding, the Agent and the Lenders receive (free from any liability in respect of any such deduction or withholding) a net sum equal to the sum which it would have received and so retained had no such deduction or withholding been made or required to be made. Each Loan Party shall (i) pay the full amount of such deduction or withholding, which it is required to make by Applicable Law, to the relevant authority within the payment period set by Applicable Law, and (ii) promptly after any such payment, deliver to the Agent an original (or certified copy) of an official receipt issued by the relevant authority in respect of the amount withheld or deducted or, if the relevant authority does not issue such official receipts, such other evidence of payment of the amount withheld or deducted as is acceptable to the Agent in the Agent’s Discretion. Furthermore, the Loan Parties shall timely pay to the relevant governmental authority in accordance with Applicable Law, or at the option of the Agent timely reimburse Agent and the Lenders for the payment of, any Other Taxes.

(b) Changes in Law. If, at any time and from time to time after the Closing Date (or at any time before or after the Closing Date with respect to (x) the Xxxx-Xxxxx Xxxx Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, regulations, guidelines or directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith shall, regardless of the date enacted, adopted or issued, or (y) all requests, rules, guidelines or directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States regulatory authorities, in each case for purposes of this clause (y) pursuant to Basel III), (i) any change in any existing law, regulation, treaty or directive or in the interpretation or application thereof, (ii) any new law, regulation, treaty or directive enacted or application thereof, or (iii) compliance by the Agent or any Lender with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any governmental authority (A) subjects the Agent or any Lender to any tax, levy, impost, deduction, assessment, charge or withholding of any kind whatsoever with respect to any Loan Document, or changes the basis of taxation of payments to the Agent or any Lender of any amount payable thereunder (except for an Excluded Tax), (B) imposes, modifies or deems applicable any reserve (including any reserve imposed by the FRB), special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by the Agent or any Lender or imposes on the Agent or any Lender any other condition affecting the Term Loan that bears interest at a rate determined by reference to the LIBOR Rate or its obligation to make the Term Loan that bears interest at a rate determined by reference to the LIBOR Rate the result of which is to increase the cost to (or to

-32-

impose a cost on) the Agent or any Lender of making or maintaining the Term Loan that bears interest at a rate determined by reference to the LIBOR Rate, or (C) imposes on the Agent or any Lender any other condition or increased cost in connection with the transactions contemplated thereby or participations therein, and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to the Agent or any Lender of making or continuing the Term Loan or to reduce any amount receivable hereunder or under any other Loan Documents, then, in any such case, the Agent or such Lender shall, as soon as practicable thereafter, give written notice thereof to the Borrower, and the Borrower shall pay to the Agent or such Lender, as applicable, promptly following such notice, any additional amounts necessary to compensate the Agent or such Lender, on an after-tax basis, for such additional cost or reduced amount as reasonably determined by the Agent or such Lender.  Each such notice of additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section 2.06(b) submitted by the Agent or any Lender to the Borrower must also be sent to the Agent and shall, absent manifest error, be final, conclusive and binding for all purposes.

Section 2.07 Taxes.

(a)Each Lender that is not a United States person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) (a “Foreign Lender”) for U.S. federal income tax purposes shall execute and deliver to Borrower and Agent, on or prior to the Closing Date (in the case of each Foreign Lender that is a party hereto on the Closing Date) or on or prior to the date of any assignment pursuant to which it becomes a Lender (in the case of each other Foreign Lender) one or more (as Borrower or Agent may reasonably request) IRS Forms W‑8ECI, W‑8BEN, W‑8BEN-E, W‑8IMY (as applicable) or other applicable form, certificate or document prescribed by the Code, the regulations issued thereunder or the United States Internal Revenue Service certifying as to such Foreign Lender’s entitlement to exemption from withholding or deduction of all relevant taxes, and, in the case of such Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, a certificate to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not (A) a “bank” within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (B) a “10 percent shareholder” of Borrower within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or (C) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code.  Such forms shall be delivered by each Foreign Lender on or before the date it becomes a party to this Agreement and on or before the date, if any, such Foreign Lender changes its applicable lending office by designating a different lending office.  Borrower shall not be required to pay additional amounts for United States federal withholding taxes to any Foreign Lender or indemnify such Foreign Lender for United States federal withholding taxes pursuant to Sections 2.06 and 2.07 to the extent that the obligation to pay such additional amounts or pay such taxes would not have arisen but for the failure of such Foreign Lender to comply with this paragraph.

(b)Each Lender and Agent that is a “United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code shall deliver to each of the Borrower and Agent a duly signed, properly completed IRS Form W-9 (or successor form) on or prior to the Closing Date (or on or prior to the date it otherwise becomes a party hereto), certifying that such Lender is entitled to an exemption from, or is otherwise not subject to, United States backup withholding tax.  Borrower shall not be required to pay additional amounts for United States federal withholding taxes to any Lender or indemnify such Lender for United States federal withholding taxes pursuant to Sections 2.06 and 2.07 to the extent that the obligation to pay such additional

-33-

amounts or pay such taxes would not have arisen but for the failure of such Lender to comply with this paragraph.

(c)Each Lender required to deliver any forms, certificates, or other evidence with respect to United States federal income tax withholding matters pursuant to this Section 2.07 hereby agrees, from time to time, after the initial delivery by such Lender of such forms, certificates, or other evidence (and whenever a lapse in time or change in circumstance renders such forms, certificates, or other evidence obsolete or inaccurate in any material respect) to promptly deliver to Agent and Borrower one or more original copies of, as applicable, IRS Forms W-8BEN, W‑8BEN-E, W-8ECI, W-8IMY, or W-9, a certificate to the effect that such Lender is not (A) a “bank” within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (B) a “10 percent shareholder” of Borrower within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or (C) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code, and such other documentation required by the Code, the regulations issued thereunder, or the United States Internal Revenue Service or otherwise by Applicable Law, all as reasonably requested by Borrower in writing to confirm or establish that such Lender is not subject to deduction or withholding of United States federal income taxation with respect to payments made to such Lender under the Loan Documents. 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 Sections 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Agent, at the time or times prescribed by Applicable Law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the 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 the Borrower or the Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA, to determine whether such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine, if necessary, the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment.  For the avoidance of doubt, for the purposes of this Section 2.07(c), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

(d)Borrower shall indemnify the Agent and each Lender for the full amount of taxes (other than Excluded Taxes) arising in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document (including any such taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under Sections 2.06 and 2.07) paid by Agent or each such Lender and any reasonable out-of-pocket third party expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto (including reasonable attorneys’ fees), whether or not such taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant governmental authority.

(e)This Section 2.07 and Section 2.06 shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of the expiration or any termination of this Agreement.

Section 2.08 Reversal of Payments. To the extent that any payment or payments made to or received by the Agent or any Lender pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside, or required to be repaid to any trustee, receiver or other Person under any state, federal or other bankruptcy or other such Applicable Law, then, to the extent thereof, such amounts (and all Liens, rights and remedies therefore) shall be revived as Obligations and continue in full force

(b)If any change in, or the adoption of any new, law or regulation, or any change in the interpretation of any applicable law or regulation by any governmental or other regulatory body charged with the administration thereof, would make it (or in the good faith judgment of the Agent or any Lender cause a substantial question as to whether it is) unlawful for the Agent or such Lender to make, maintain or fund loans based on the LIBOR Rate, then the Agent or such Lender, as applicable, shall promptly notify Borrower and the Agent and, so long as such circumstances shall continue,  the Term Loan shall automatically bear interest at a per annum rate determined by reference to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin.

VIII. PARTICIPATING LENDERS ASSIGNMENTS.

Section 8.01 Participations.  Anything in this Agreement or any other Loan Document to the contrary notwithstanding, any Lender may, at any time and from time to time, without in any manner affecting or impairing the validity of any Obligations, sell to one or more Persons participating interests in its Term Loan and/or other interests hereunder and/or under any other Loan Document (any such Person, a “Participant”) with the prior written consent of the Agent.  In the event of a sale by a Lender of a participating interest to a Participant, (a) such Lender’s obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall remain unchanged for all purposes, (b) the Borrower, the Agent and such Lender shall continue to deal solely and directly with each other in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and (c) all amounts payable by the Borrower shall be determined as if such Lender had not sold such participation and shall be paid directly to the Agent on behalf of such Lender or to such Lender, as applicable.  The Borrower agrees that if amounts outstanding under this Agreement or any other Loan Document are due and payable (as a result of acceleration or otherwise), each Participant along with each Affiliate of each Participant shall be deemed to have the right of set-off in respect of its participating interest in amounts owing under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to the same extent as if the amount of its participating interest were owing directly to it as a Lender under this Agreement; provided, that such right of set-off shall not be exercised without the prior written consent of the Agent and shall be subject to the obligation of each Participant and Affiliate thereof to share with Agent and the Lenders its share thereof.  The Borrower also agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.06 and 2.07 as if it were a Lender.  Notwithstanding the granting of any such participating interests: (i) the Borrower and the Agent shall look solely to the Lender that sold such participation interest for all purposes of this Agreement, the Loan Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) the Borrower and the Agent shall at all times have the right to rely upon any waivers or consents signed by such Lender as being binding upon all of the Participants of such Lender, and (iii) all communications in respect of this Agreement and such transactions with such Lender need not involve any Participant of such Lender.  Each Lender granting a participation hereunder shall maintain, as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, a register (a “Participant Register”) as to the participations granted and transferred under this Section containing the same information specified in Section 8.02 on the Register as if each Participant were a Lender.  No participation shall be effective for any purpose under the Loan Documents unless and until recorded in a Participant Register by the applicable Lender.  The requirement for a Participant Register set forth in this Section 8.01 shall be construed so that the Term Loan and/or other interests hereunder are at all times maintained in “registered form” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.871-14(c).  No Participant shall have any direct or indirect voting rights hereunder except with respect to any event described in Section 11.01 expressly requiring the unanimous vote of all Lenders or, as applicable, all directly affected Lenders.  

Section 8.02 Assignment.  Anything in this Agreement or any other Loan Document to the contrary notwithstanding any Lender may, at any time and from time to time, without in any manner affecting or impairing the validity of any Obligations, assign all or any its portion of the Term Loan (along with the related rights and interests) to any Person (an

-69-

“Assignee Lender”), with the prior written consent of the Agent (provided such consent of Agent shall not be (x) unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned or (y) required with respect to any assignment by a Lender to a Lender or an Affiliate or Related Fund of a Lender, in each case so long as no such Person is a Defaulting Lender.  Except as the Agent may otherwise agree, any such assignment (other than any assignment by a Lender to a Lender or an Affiliate or Related Fund of a Lender) shall be in a minimum aggregate amount equal to $1,000,000 of the Term Loan or, if less, all of the remaining Term Loan of such assigning Lender.  No such assignment shall be effective unless and until the Agent shall have received and accepted an effective Assignment and Acceptance executed, delivered and fully completed by the applicable parties thereto (including the Agent) and a processing fee of $5,000 to be paid to the Agent by the Lender to whom such interest is assigned (unless such processing fee is waived by the Agent; and provided that no such processing fee shall be required with respect to an assignment by a Lender to its Affiliates or Related Funds).  Any attempted assignment not made in accordance with this Section 8.02 shall be null and void.  From and after the date on which the conditions described above have been met, (i) such Assignee Lender shall be deemed automatically to have become a party hereto and, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned to such Assignee Lender pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, shall have the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder and (ii) the assigning Lender, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, shall be released from its rights (other than its indemnification rights) and obligations hereunder.  Upon the request of the Assignee Lender (and, as applicable, the assigning Lender) pursuant to an effective Assignment and Acceptance, the Borrower shall execute and deliver to the Agent for delivery to the Assignee Lender (and, as applicable, the assigning Lender) a Note in the principal amount of the Assignee Lender’s Term Loan (and, as applicable, a Note in the principal amount of the Term Loan retained by the assigning Lender).  Each such Note shall be dated the effective date of such assignment.  Upon receipt by the assigning Lender of such Note, the assigning Lender shall return to the Borrower any prior Note held by it.  Without limiting the foregoing, in no event, without the prior written consent of Agent, which consent of Agent may or may not be given (and which if given, such consent may be conditioned on any matter required by Agent) in the sole and absolute discretion of Agent, may any Lender transfer and assign all or any interests in its Term Loan and/or other interests hereunder and/or under any other Loan Document to (x) any Sponsor Affiliate, any Loan Party or any Affiliate of any Loan Party, or (y)  any holder of Subordinated Debt (or Indebtedness owing by a Loan Party which is secured by a Lien that is either senior or subordinated to any of the Liens of Agent securing the Obligations) or any Affiliate of any such holder.  Agent, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices in the United States a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register (the “Register”) for the recordation of the names and addresses of each Lender, and principal amount and stated interest of the Term Loan owing to, such Lender pursuant to the terms hereof.  Subject to receipt of any required tax forms reasonably required by Agent, Agent shall record the applicable transfers, assignments and assumptions in the Register. The entries in such Register shall be conclusive, and Borrower, Agent and Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded therein pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary, and no assignment shall be effective for any purpose under the Loan Documents unless and until recorded in the Register.  Such Register shall be available for inspection by Borrower and any Lender (solely as to such Lender), at any reasonable time upon reasonable prior notice to Agent.  The requirement for the Register set forth in this Section 8.02 shall be construed so that

-70-

the Term Loan and/or other interests hereunder are at all times maintained in “register form” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.871-14(c).  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if no Event of Default under Section 7.01(b), (g) or (h) has occurred and is continuing, neither Agent nor any Lender may assign all or any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement to any Competitor.

Section 8.03 Pledges/Security.  Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document to the contrary, the Agent and each Lender may at any time pledge or grant a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to secure obligations of the Agent or such Lender, including any pledge or grant to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided, that notwithstanding the foregoing no such Person to whom such pledge or grant is made in favor of shall be permitted to be a Lender hereunder without the prior written consent of the Agent.

Section 9.05 Reservation of Remedies.  Neither any failure nor any delay on the part of the Agent or any Lender in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall a single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or future exercise, or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.

-74-

not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by Applicable Law.  No failure to exercise and no delay in exercising, on the part of the Agent or any Lender, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder, shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege.  No reference in any Loan Document to the “continuing” nature of any Event of Default or that an Event of Default “remains in existence” (or any similar references) shall be construed as establishing or otherwise indicating that any Loan Party has the right to cure any such Event of Default, but is rather presented merely for convenience should such Event of Default be waived in accordance with Article XI (which the parties hereto understand and agree would require a written waiver from the Agent and the applicable Lenders as provided in Article XI expressly waiving such Event of Default).  For the sake of clarity, once an Event of Default shall have occurred, no Loan Party shall have a right to cure such Event of Default and no such Event of Default shall be deemed cured and/or cease to exist and/or cease to be continuing unless and until such Event of Default is waived in writing in accordance with Article XI of this Agreement.

-76-

Participant) of Agent or any Lender which agrees to be bound by this Section 9.14 and (g) to any lender or other funding source of the Agent or any Lender (each reference to Agent and/or a Lender in the foregoing clauses shall be deemed to include (i) the actual and prospective Assignee  Lenders and Participants referred to in clause (f) above and the lenders and other funding sources referred to in clause (g) above, as applicable for purposes of this Section 9.14), and provided further, that in no event shall the Agent or any Lender be obligated or required to return any materials furnished by or on behalf of the Borrower or any other Loan Party.  Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Confidential Information as provided in this Section 9.14 shall be considered to have complied with the obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Confidential Information as such Person would accord its own confidential information (but not less than a reasonable degree of care).  The obligations of the Agent and each Lender under this Section 9.14 shall supersede and replace the obligations of the Agent and each Lender under any confidentiality letter or provision in respect of this financing or any other financing previously signed and delivered by the Agent and/or any Lender to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates or any Sponsor Affiliates.

Section 10.02 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.  Without limiting the generality of the powers of the Agent, as set forth above, the Agent is hereby authorized to act as collateral agent for each Lender pursuant to each of the Loan Documents.  In such capacity, the Agent has the right to exercise all rights and remedies available under the Loan Documents, the UCC and other applicable law, as directed by the Required Lenders, which rights and remedies shall include, in the event of a foreclosure by the Agent on any portion of the Collateral, whether pursuant to a public or private sale, the right of the Agent, as agent for all Lenders, to be, or form an acquisition entity to be, the purchaser of any or all of such Collateral at any such sale.  The Agent, as agent for all Lenders, shall be entitled at any such sale to offset any of the Obligations against the purchase price payable by the Agent (or such acquisition entity) at such sale or to otherwise consent to a reduction of the Obligations as consideration to the applicable Loan Party in connection with such sale. The Agent shall have the authority to take such other actions as it may deem necessary or desirable, and as may be approved by Required Lenders, to consummate a sale of the type described in the immediately preceding sentences.  The Agent shall have the authority to accept non-cash consideration in connection with the sale or other disposition of the Collateral, whether the purchaser is the Agent, an entity formed by the Agent as described above or any other Person.  Without limiting the generality of the powers of the Agent, as set forth above, in the context of any bankruptcy or other insolvency proceeding involving any Loan Party, the Agent is hereby authorized to, at the direction of Required Lenders:  (i) file proofs of claim and other documents on behalf of the Lenders, (ii) object or consent to the use of cash collateral, (iii) object or consent to any proposed debtor-in-possession financing, whether provided by one or more of the Lenders or any other Person and whether secured by Liens with priority over the Liens securing the Obligations or otherwise, (iv) object or consent to any sale of Collateral, including sales for non-cash consideration in satisfaction of a portion of the Obligations, as may be agreed to by Required Lenders on behalf of all Lenders, (v) to be, or form

-78-

Section 10.03 Limited Liability.  None of the Agent or any of its directors, officers, attorneys, employees or agents shall (a) 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 or the transactions contemplated hereby (except to the extent resulting solely from willful misconduct or gross negligence of such Person as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction), or (b) be responsible in any manner to any Lender for any recital, statement, representation or warranty made by any Loan Party or Affiliate of any Loan Party or any Sponsor Affiliate, or 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 the creation, perfection or priority of any Lien or security interest therein), or for any failure of any Loan Party or any other party to any Loan Document to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder.  The Agent shall not be under any obligation to any Lender 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 Loan Party or Affiliate of any Loan Party or any Sponsor Affiliate.

Section 10.04 Reliance.  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, telex, electronic mail or telephone message, statement or other document believed by it to be genuine and correct 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 any Loan Party), 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 (a) unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of Required Lenders (or all Lenders, or such other Lenders, if expressly required hereunder) as it deems appropriate and, if it so requests, confirmation from Lenders of their obligation to indemnify the Agent against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action, (b) if such action would, in the opinion of Agent, be contrary to Applicable Law or the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (c) if such action would, in the opinion of Agent, expose Agent to liabilities, or (d) if Agent shall not first be indemnified to its satisfaction 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 Required Lenders (or all Lenders, or such other Lenders, if expressly required hereunder) and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon each Lender. Without limiting the foregoing, no Lender shall have any right of action whatsoever against Agent as a result of Agent’s acting or refraining from

-79-

acting hereunder or under any other Loan Document in accordance with the instructions of Required Lenders (or all Lenders, or such other Lenders, if expressly required hereunder).

Section 10.05 Notice of Default; Dissemination of Information.  The Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Event of Default or Default, unless the Agent shall have received written notice from a Lender or the Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Event of Default or Default and expressly stating that such notice is a “notice of default”.  The Agent will endeavor to notify the Lenders of its receipt of any such notice; provided that the Agent shall not have any liability whatsoever for failing to deliver any such notice.  The Agent shall take such action with respect to such Event of Default or Default as may be reasonably requested by Required Lenders in accordance with Section 7.02; provided, that unless and until the Agent has 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 Event of Default or Default as it shall deem advisable in its sole discretion.  Agent and Lenders acknowledge that Borrower, the Loan Parties and certain other Persons are required to provide certain financial statements and other financial information and reports to Agent and/or Lenders in accordance with the Loan Documents and agree that Agent shall not have any duty to provide the same to Lenders.

Section 10.06 Credit Decision.  Each Lender acknowledges that the Agent has not made any representation or warranty to it, and that no act by the Agent hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of the Borrower and the other Loan Parties, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by the Agent to any Lender.  Each Lender 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 Borrower and the other Loan Parties, and made its own decision to enter into this Agreement and to extend credit to the Borrower hereunder.  Each Lender 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 Loan Parties.  Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly herein required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Agent, the Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial or other condition or creditworthiness of any Loan Party which may come into the possession of the Agent.

Section 10.07 Indemnification.  Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, each Lender shall indemnify (based on such Lender’s Pro Rata Share) the Agent and its managers, directors, officers, employees, attorneys and agents against (to the extent not reimbursed by or on behalf of Borrower and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), and shall hold the Agent and such other Persons harmless from, any and all losses, claims, taxes (other than an Excluded Tax) damages and liabilities and related reasonable expenses (provided such “reasonable” qualifier shall not apply with respect to costs and expenses of Agent incurred during the existence of an Event of Default), including counsel fees and expenses, incurred by the Agent or any such other Person arising out of, in any way connected

-80-

Section 10.08 Agent Individually.  Comvest and its Affiliates and Related Funds 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, underwriting or other business with any Loan Party and any Affiliate of any Loan Party or any Sponsor Affiliate as though Comvest were not the Agent hereunder and without notice to or consent of any Lender.  Each Lender acknowledges that, pursuant to such activities, Comvest or its Affiliates or its Related Funds may receive information regarding Loan Parties or their Affiliates (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of any such Loan Party or such Affiliate) or Sponsor Affiliates and acknowledge that the Agent shall be under no obligation to provide such information to them.  With respect to their Term Loan (if any), Comvest and its Affiliates and Related Funds shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though Comvest were not the Agent, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” include Comvest and its Affiliates and Related Funds, to the extent applicable, in their individual capacities.

Section 10.09 Successor Agent.  The Agent may resign as the Agent at any time upon 30 days’ prior notice to the Lenders (unless such notice is waived by Required Lenders).  If the Agent resigns under this Agreement, Required Lenders shall, appoint from among the Lenders a successor “Agent” for the Lenders.  If no successor “Agent” is appointed prior to the effective date of the resignation of the Agent, the Agent may appoint, after consulting with the Lenders, a successor “Agent”.  Upon the acceptance of its appointment as successor “Agent”

-81-

hereunder, such successor “Agent” shall succeed to all the rights, powers and duties of the retiring the Agent and the term “Agent” shall mean such successor “Agent”, and the retiring Agent’s appointment, powers and duties as the Agent shall be terminated.  After any retiring Agent’s resignation hereunder as the Agent, the provisions of this Article X and Section 9.02 shall continue to 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, the retiring Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective and the Lenders shall perform all of the duties of the Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as Required Lenders appoint a successor “Agent” as provided for above.

Section 10.10 Collateral and Guarantee Matters.  The Lenders consent and irrevocably authorize the Agent, at its option and in its discretion, (a) to release any Lien granted to or held by the Agent under the Collateral Agreement and/or any other collateral document (i) when all outstanding monetary Obligations owing with respect to the Term Loan have been paid in full (it being understood and agreed to that Agent shall be under no obligation to account for any outstanding monetary Obligations owing to any Lender that have not been reported to Agent in writing by such Lender and Agent may assume that no such non-reported monetary Obligations owing to such Lender exist for purposes of this clause (i)); (ii) constituting property sold or to be sold or disposed of as part of or in connection with any sale or other disposition permitted under this Agreement (including by consent, waiver or amendment and it being agreed and understood that the Agent may conclusively rely without further inquiry on a certificate of an officer of the Borrower as to the sale or other disposition of property being made in compliance with this Agreement); or (iii) subject to Section 11.01, if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by Required Lenders; (b) notwithstanding Section 11.01(b)(1) to release any party from its guaranty under the Collateral Agreement (i) when all outstanding monetary Obligations owing with respect to the Term Loan have been paid in full (it being understood and agreed to that Agent shall be under no obligation to account for any outstanding monetary Obligations owing to any Lender that have not been reported to Agent in writing by such Lender and Agent may assume that no such non-reported monetary Obligations owing to such Lender exist for purposes of this clause (i)), or (ii) if such party was sold or is to be sold or disposed of as part of or in connection with any disposition permitted hereunder (including by consent, waiver or amendment and it being agreed and understood that the Agent may conclusively rely without further inquiry on a certificate of an officer of the Borrower as to the sale or other disposition being made in compliance with this Agreement); or (c) to subordinate its interest in any Collateral to any holder of a purchase money (or its equivalent) Lien on such Collateral which is permitted by hereunder (it being understood that the Agent may conclusively rely on a certificate from the Borrower in determining whether the Indebtedness secured by any such Lien is permitted hereunder).  Upon request by the Agent at any time, the Lenders will confirm in writing the Agent’s authority to release, or subordinate its interest in, particular types or items of Collateral pursuant to this Section 10.10.

Section 10.11 Agent Advances. The Agent may from time to time make such disbursements and advances (“Agent Advances”) which the Agent, in its sole discretion, deems necessary or desirable to preserve, protect, prepare for sale or lease or dispose of the Collateral or any portion thereof, to enhance the likelihood or maximize the amount of repayment by the Borrower of the Term Loan and other Obligations or to pay any other amount chargeable to the

-82-

Borrower pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, including costs, fees and expenses.  The Agent Advances shall be repayable on demand, shall be secured by the Collateral, shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the rate then applicable to the Term Loan and shall constitute Obligations hereunder.  The Agent shall notify each Lender and the Borrower in writing of each such Agent Advance, which notice shall include a description of the purpose of such Agent Advance.  Without limitation to its obligations pursuant to Section 10.07, each Lender agrees that it shall promptly (but not later than three (3) Business Days) make available to the Agent, upon the Agent’s demand, in U.S. dollars in immediately available funds, the amount equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of each such Agent Advance and thereafter the portion of such Agent Advance so reimbursed by each Lender shall be added to the principal balance of the Term Loan owed by the Borrower to each such Lender.  If such funds are not made available to the Agent by such Lender by the end of such three (3) Business Day period, the Agent shall be entitled to recover such funds on demand from such Lender, together with interest thereon for each day from the date such payment was due until the date such amount is paid to the Agent, at the Federal Funds Rate for three (3) Business Days and thereafter at the Reference Rate.

Section 10.13 Actions in Concert.  Each Lender hereby agrees with each other Lender that no Lender shall take any action to protect or enforce its rights arising out of this Agreement, the Notes or any other Loan Document (including exercising any rights of setoff) without first obtaining the prior written consent of the Agent, it being the intent of the Lenders that any such action to protect or enforce rights under this Agreement, the Notes and the other Loan Documents shall be taken in concert and at the direction or with the consent of the Agent.

Section 10.14 Competitors.  Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document to the contrary, Agent and the Lenders shall not be responsible or have any liability for, or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into, monitor or enforce, compliance with the provisions hereof relating to Competitors; provided, that each of Agent and each Lender shall be responsible for, and shall not be excused from any liability for, any assignment by Agent or such Lender of any of its rights or obligations hereunder to any Person which such assigning party has actual knowledge is either GameStop Corp. or Trans World Entertainment Corp.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, neither the Agent nor any Lender shall ‎(x) be obligated to ascertain, monitor or inquire as to whether any other Lender or Participant or prospective Lender or Participant is a Competitor or (y) have any
