Notwithstanding any provision of this Master Agreement, Form of Confirmation or other document to the contrary, it is the intent of EPK and the Manager that EPK or any subsequent holder or assignee of this Master Agreement shall never be entitled to receive, collect, reserve or apply as interest, any amount in excess of the maximum rate of interest as permitted by applicable law, as amended or enacted, from time to time.  In the event that EPK or any subsequent holder or assignee of this Master Agreement ever receives, collects, reserves or applies, as interest, any such excess, such amount which would be excessive interest shall be deemed a partial prepayment of principal and treated as such, or, if the principal indebtedness and all other amounts due are paid in full, any remaining excess interest shall be paid to the Manager.  In determining whether fees paid or payable under the Master Agreement, under any specific contingency, constitute interest and exceeds the highest lawful rate, the Manager and EPK shall, to the maximum extent permitted under applicable law, (a) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof as it may relate to fees charges by EPK, and (b) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread, in equal parts, the total amount of fees charged throughout the entire term of the Master Agreement.  Upon refund of any excess interest as determined hereunder, EPK shall not be subjected to any damages or penalties under any laws for contracting for, charging, reserving or receiving interest in excess of the maximum lawful rate. EPK and the Manager specifically agree and stipulate that any fees charged under the Master Agreement, not specifically denominated as interest, are not compensation for the use or forbearance or detention of money. Manager specifically waive any damages, whether imposed by precedent or statute, for the contract, charge, reserve or receipt by EPK of interest in excess of that allowed by law except the refund of the excess interest and the Manager specifically acknowledge that EPK relies on such waiver in entering into the Master Agreement and that EPK has changed its position in reliance on such waiver.

5.14           COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS.  MANAGER SHALL OBSERVE AND COMPLY IN ALL MATERIAL RESPECTS WITH ALL FEDERAL, STATE AND LOCAL LAWS AND REGULATIONS WHICH GOVERN THE MANUFACTURE, SALE, HANDLING AND DISPOSAL OF ANY PRODUCTS HEREIN SPECIFIED.  MANAGER ALSO AGREES TO COMPLY WITH THE PROVISIONS RELATING TO THE FCPA SET FORTH IN EXHIBIT B.  IF MANAGER VIOLATES ANY OF SUCH LAWS OR REGULATIONS OR IS OFFICIALLY CHARGED WITH SUCH VIOLATIONS, EPK IN ITS SOLE DISCRETION MAY TREAT THIS CONDUCT AS A BREACH OF THIS WHOLE AGREEMENT AND IN ADDITION TO ANY OTHER REMEDIES, MAY IMMEDIATELY TERMINATE THIS AGREEMENT.

5.15           Guaranty. The Manager shall cause each Guarantor to execute and deliver a Guaranty and take all actions reasonably requested by EPK to cause each Guarantor to perform its obligations under its Guaranty.

5.16           UCC Filing. To secure performance and payment of Manager’s obligation hereunder, Manager grants EPK a security interest in all personal property.

5.17           THE MANAGER AND EPK AGREE THAT THE TERMS HEREIN SHALLBE AND AT ALL TIMES WILL REMAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND, EXCEPT AS REQUIRED BY LAW, WILL NOT BE COMMUNICATED BY EITHER THE MANAGER OR EPK TO ANY THIRD PARTY WITHOUT THE PRIOR WRITTEN CONSENT OF THE OTHER. EXCEPT (a) AS REQUIRED BY LAW AND (b) TO SUCH PARTY’S AFFILIATES AND ITS AFFILIATE’S RESPECTIVE OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, ADVISORS AND AGENTS, PROVIDED THAT SUCH PERSONS ARE SUBJECT TO CONFIDENTIALITY PROVISIONS THE AS SET FORTH HEREIN.

Manager shall pay to EPK a fee in consideration of EPK’s commitment to reserve and have available sufficient funds to enter in to a proposed Transaction (“Commitment Fee”). The Commitment Fee shall be in the sum of $230,000.00. The Commitment Fee is deemed by the Manager to have been earned by EPK upon the signing of this agreement and shall be payable from the payments received by EPK from Purchaser and/or Factor in an amount equal to an additional 5% of the EPK Purchase Price of each Transaction in addition to the fees detailed in the EPK Minimum Proceeds, until the Commitment Fee has been paid in full. Manager hereby agrees the Commitment Fee shall be paid in full by no later than November 1, 2013. EPK reserves the right to change or amend the percentage of the EPK Purchase Price to collect the Commitment Fee at anytime.

5.19           Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the lien and security interest granted herein, and the exercise of rights and remedies by EPK hereunder, are subject to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement.  In the event of any conflict between the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement and this Agreement, the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement shall govern and control for so long as the Intercreditor Agreement shall be in effect.  For the avoidance of doubt, in the event of a shortfall related to a Transaction, Manager shall repay EPK from all available proceeds with Factor including proceeds not related to a Transaction subject to the terms of the Factoring Agreement.

5.20           ENTIRE AGREEMENT.  THIS AGREEMENT REPRESENTS THE FINAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES HERETO REGARDING THE SUBJECT MATTER HEREOF AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS, OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES.  THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN ORAL AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES.
