RECITALS. The Borrowers, the Guarantors, the Lenders, the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent and the Origination Agent are parties to the Financing Agreement, pursuant to which the Lenders made certain term loans (each a "Loan" and collectively, the "Loans") to the Borrowers. The Loan Parties have requested, among other things, that the Lenders waive any noncompliance with the Leverage Ratio and Minimum Liquidity covenants set forth in Section 7.03 of the Financing Agreement through February 15, 2016 and the Lenders extend the Final Maturity Date as set forth below.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and other good and valuable consideration, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

1. Definitions. Any terms used herein that are defined in the Financing Agreement and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Financing Agreement.

2. Amendments. The Financing Agreement shall be amended as follows (provided, that notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if the Sixth Amendment Effective Date occurs, the amendments and modifications contemplated therein shall become effective):

(a) New Definitions. Section 1.01 of the Financing Agreement is hereby amended by adding the following definitions, in appropriate alphabetical order:

"'Eighth Amendment' means the Eighth Amendment to Financing Agreement, dated as of December __, 2015, by and among the Borrowers, the Guarantors, the Lenders and the Agents."

"'Eighth Amendment Effective Date' means the date on which the Eighth Amendment shall become effective in accordance with its terms."

(b) Amended Definitions. Section 1.01 of the Financing Agreement is hereby amended by amending and restating the following definition:

"'Final Maturity Date' means the earliest of (i) February 15, 2016, (ii) the date on which the Loans shall become due and payable in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, and (iii) the payment in full of all Obligations and the termination of all Commitments."

(c) Fees. Section 2.06 of the Financing Agreement is hereby amended by adding a new subsection (j), to read in its entirety as follows:

"(j) Eighth Amendment Fee. The Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent a non-refundable amendment fee (the "Eighth Amendment Fee"), for the account of each Lender that shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent a counterpart of the Eighth Amendment signed on behalf of such Lender (or that shall have provided to the Administrative Agent written evidence satisfactory to the Administrative Agent (which may include a telecopy or electronic transmission of a signed signature page of the Eighth Amendment) that such Lender has signed and delivered to the Administrative Agent a counterpart of the Eighth Amendment) prior to 4:00 p.m., New York time, on December 27, 2015 (each such Lender, a "Eighth Amendment Consenting Lender"), in an amount equal to 0.50% of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Loans of such Eighth Amendment Consenting Lender as of the Eighth Amendment Effective Date, The Eighth Amendment Fee shall only be earned if all Lenders have delivered their signed signature page of the Eighth Amendment. The Eighth Amendment Fee owing to each Eighth Amendment Consenting Lender (i) shall constitute "Obligations" that are secured by the Collateral, (ii) shall be fully earned as of the Eighth Amendment Effective Date in consideration for such Eighth Amendment Consenting Lender's execution and delivery of the Eighth Amendment, and (iii) shall be payable on the earliest to occur of (A) the Final Maturity Date, and (B) the date on which all of the Obligations (other than Contingent Indemnification Obligations) are repaid or required to be repaid in full in cash."

3. Waiver and Consent.

(a) Pursuant to the request of the Loan Parties and in accordance with Section 12.02 of the Financing Agreement, but subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 6 hereof, the Lenders hereby consent to, and waive any Event of Default that would otherwise arise under Section 9.01(c)(i) of the Financing Agreement as a result of:

(i) any noncompliance with Section 7.02(h) of the Financing Agreement or Section 4 of the Fourth Amendment, Fifth Amendment, or Seventh Amendment resulting from the payment, on or before June 30, 2015, to Christals Management, LLC ("Christals Management") under the Management Agreement of Permitted Management Fees in advance instead of in arrears, including the payment of $62,500 to Christals Management on June 29, 2015.

(ii) subject to Section 3(b) below, any noncompliance with Section 7.03(a) arising from the failure of the Parent and its Subsidiaries to have a Leverage Ratio for each period of four fiscal quarters ending on June 30, 2015, September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2015 of not more than the applicable ratio specified in Section 7.03(a); and

(iii) subject to Section 3(b) below, any noncompliance with Section 7.03(b) arising from the failure of the Parent and its Subsidiaries to have Liquidity of at least $1,500,000 at any time from June 30, 2015 through December 31, 2015.

(b) Notwithstanding the consents and waivers set forth in Section 3(a) above, if any of the Obligations remain outstanding as of February 15, 2016, then the Loan Parties must satisfy (i) the Leverage Ratio of the Parent and its Subsidiaries for the periods of four fiscal quarters ending September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2015 as set forth in Section 7.03(a) of the Financing Agreement and (ii) the Liquidity test at the end of the fiscal quarters ending September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2015 as set forth in Section 7.03(b) of the Financing Agreement.

(c) The waivers and consents in this Section 3 shall be effective only in the specific instances and for the specific purposes set forth herein and do not allow for any other or further departure from the terms and conditions of the Financing Agreement or any other Loan Document, which terms and conditions shall remain in full force and effect.

4. Suspension of Cash Payment of Permitted Management Fees. Except as set forth below in this Section 4, the Loan Parties agree not to pay any Permitted Management Fees until the earlier to occur of (a) the Final Maturity Date, or (b) the date on which all Obligations are repaid or required to be repaid and all Commitments are terminated; provided, however, that upon the closing of a Qualified IPO, the Loan Parties may pay to XX XX SPV, LLC $325,000 of Permitted Management Fees. Permitted Management Fees shall continue to accrue through December 31, 2015, but shall not accrue thereafter.

8. Release. In consideration of the agreements contained in this Amendment and other good and valuable consideration, each Loan Party (for itself and its Subsidiaries and the successors, assigns, heirs and representatives of each of the foregoing) (collectively, the "Releasors") does hereby fully, finally, unconditionally and irrevocably release and forever discharge each Agent, each Lender and each of their respective Affiliates, officers, directors, employees, attorneys, consultants and agents (collectively, the "Released Parties") from any and all debts, claims, obligations, damages, costs, attorneys' fees, suits, demands, liabilities, actions, proceedings and causes of action, in each case, whether known or unknown, contingent or fixed, direct or indirect, and of whatever nature or description, and whether in law or in equity, under contract, tort, statute or otherwise, which any Releasor has heretofore had or now or hereafter can, shall or may have against any Released Party by reason of any act, omission or thing whatsoever done or omitted to be done on or prior to the Eighth Amendment Effective Date directly arising out of, connected with or related to this Amendment, the Financing Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any act, event or transaction related or attendant thereto, or the agreements of any Agent or any Lender contained therein, or the possession, use, operation or control of any of the assets of any Loan Party, or the making of any Loans or other advances, or the management of such Loans or advances or the Collateral.

9. Expense Advance.
