WHEREAS, Coffee Holding and Organic Products executed and delivered to the Bank various loan documents (the “Existing Loan Documents”), pursuant to which the Bank extended to such Borrowers two revolving credit facilities (the “Initial Loan Facilities”), and the Bank has made extensions of credit under the Initial Loan Facilities; and

WHEREAS, Coffee Holding has requested that the Bank consent to the (i) formation of Sonofresco, LLC, as a wholly owned Subsidiary thereof, and the acquisition of the assets of Coffee Kinetics, LLC by Sonofresco, LLC and (ii) stock acquisition by Coffee Holding of Comfort Foods, Inc. (“Comfort”); and

WHEREAS, it has been determined that the Initial Loan Facilities should be amended and restated to address the restructuring of the Initial Loan Facilities to provide for, inter alia, the addition of Sonofresco and Comfort as Guarantors, the consolidation of the Initial Loan Facilities and to re-evidence the “Obligations” under, and as defined in, the Existing Loan Documents, which shall be repayable in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, and the restatement of the terms and conditions of the Initial Loan Facilities; and

WHEREAS, it is the intent of the parties hereto that this Agreement not constitute a novation of the obligations and liabilities of the parties under the Existing Loan Documents or be deemed to evidence or constitute full repayment of such obligations and liabilities, but that this Agreement and Loan Documents amend and restate in its entirety the Existing Loan Documents; and

WHEREAS, it is also the intent of the parties to confirm that (i) all obligations under the “Loan Documents” (as referred to and defined in the Existing Loan Documents) shall continue in full force and effect as modified and/or restated by the Loan Documents (as referred to and defined herein), (ii) all Liens and security interests granted by the Loan Parties to secure such obligations are in all respects continuing in full force and effect and (iii) from and after the Closing Date, all references to the “Loan Agreement” or “Agreement” contained in any such existing “Loan Documents” shall be deemed to refer to this Agreement.

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing premises and for other good and valuable consideration, including the granting by the Bank of financial accommodations to or for the benefit of the Borrowers, the Borrowers represent and agree with the Bank, as of the date hereof and as of the date of each loan, credit and/or other financial accommodation, as follows:

1. THE LOANS

1.1 Loans.

(a) Revolving Loans. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, during the term of this Agreement, the Bank, absent the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default, may make revolving loans to the Borrowers (the “Revolving Loans”) in an amount not to exceed the lesser of the Borrowing Base and the Maximum Facility Amount, except as such amount may be increased or decreased by Bank, in its sole discretion (the “Revolving Credit Facility”). Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrowers may borrow, repay and re-borrow Revolving Loans.

A request for a Revolving Loan shall be made or shall be deemed to be made, each in the following manner: Unless otherwise agreed by Xxxxxx, each request for a Loan shall be irrevocable. The Borrower shall give the Bank same-day notice, no later than 11:00 A.M. (New York time) on any Business Day, of its request for a Revolving Loan, in which notice the Borrower shall specify the amount of the proposed Revolving Loan and the proposed borrowing date, which must be a Business Day; provided, however, that no such request may be made at a time when there exists a Default or an Event of Default. Each check presented for payment against the Borrower’s controlled disbursement account, if any, at Bank and any other charge or request for payment against such controlled disbursement account shall constitute a request for a Revolving Loan. As an accommodation to the Borrower, the Bank may permit telephone requests for Revolving Loans and electronic transmittal of instructions, authorizations, agreements or reports to the Bank by the Borrower. Unless the Borrower specifically directs the Bank in writing not to accept or act upon telephonic or electronic communications from the Borrower, the Bank shall have no liability to the Borrower for any loss or damage suffered by the Borrower as result of the Bank’s honoring of any requests, execution of any instructions, authorizations or agreements or reliance on any reports communicated to it telephonically or electronically and purporting to have been sent to the Bank by the Borrower and the Bank shall have no duty to verify the origin of any such communications or the authority of the Person sending it.

The Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes the Bank to disburse the proceeds of each Revolving Loan requested by the Borrower as follows: the proceeds of each Revolving Loan requested under Section 1(a) shall be disbursed by Bank in lawful money of the United States of America in immediately available funds, in the case of the initial borrowing, in accordance with the terms of the written disbursement letter from Borrower, and in the case of each subsequent borrowing, by credit to any account of Borrower at Bank or by wire transfer or Automated Clearing House (ACH) transfer to such bank accounts as may be agreed upon by the Borrower and the Bank from time to time, or elsewhere if pursuant to a written direction from the Borrower.

-2-

(b) Sub-Limits. Within the Revolving Credit Facility and the Maximum Facility Amount (as defined in Annex 2) there shall be the following sublimits:

1. [Reserved].

(c) Sonofresco, LLC. The Bank hereby consents to the June 23, 2016 formation of Sonofresco, LLC, as a wholly owned Subsidiary of Coffee Holding, and to the June 29, 2016 acquisition of the assets of Coffee Kinetics, LLC by Sonofresco, LLC pursuant to that certain Asset Purchase and Sale Agreement between Coffee Kinetics, LLC (as Seller) and Sonofresco, LLC (as Buyer) dated June 23, 2016.

(d) Comfort Foods, Inc. The Bank hereby consents to the acquisition of the stock of Comfort Foods, Inc. by Coffee Holding pursuant to that certain Stock Purchase Agreement among Xxxxxxx X. Xxxxxxx and Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxx (as Sellers), Comfort Foods, Inc. and Coffee Holding (as Buyer) dated ___________ 2017.

1.2 Revolving Loan Account. An account of the Borrowers shall be opened on the books of Bank in which account (the “Revolving Loan Account”) a record will be kept of all Revolving Loans to the Borrowers, and all payments thereon and other appropriate debits and credits as provided by this Agreement. No failure of the Bank to make, and no error by the Bank in making, any entry in such books will affect the Borrowers’ obligation to repay the full principal amount advanced by the Bank to or for the account of the Borrowers or the Borrowers’ obligation to pay interest thereon at the agreed upon rate.

1.3 Interest.

(a) Rate. All Loans and the outstanding amount of all other Obligations shall bear interest, in the case of Loans, on the unpaid principal amount thereof from the date such Loans are made and, in the case of such other Obligations, from the date such other Obligations are due and payable until, in all cases, paid in full, except as otherwise provided in clause (c) below, at the rate(s) set forth in Annex 2.

(b) Payments. Interest accrued shall be payable in arrears (i) if accrued on the principal amount of any Loan, (A) at maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) and (B) on the first day of each month commencing on the first such day following the making of such Loan and (ii) if accrued on any other Obligation, on demand from and after the time such Obligation is due and payable (whether by acceleration or otherwise).

(c) Default Interest. Notwithstanding the rates of interest specified in clause (a) above or elsewhere in any Loan Document, effective immediately upon (A) the occurrence of any Event of Default under Sections 6.1(k) or 6.1(l) or (B) the delivery of a notice by the Bank to the Borrowers during the continuance of any other Event of Default and, in each case, for as long as such Event of Default shall be continuing, the principal balance of all Obligations (including any Obligation that bears interest by reference to the rate applicable to any other Obligation) then due and payable shall bear interest at a rate that is 5% per annum in excess of the interest rate otherwise applicable to such Obligations from time to time, payable on demand or, in the absence of demand, on the date that would otherwise be applicable.

-3-

(d) Savings Clause. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the obligations of the Borrowers hereunder shall be subject to the limitation that payments of interest shall not be required, for any period for which interest is computed hereunder, to the extent (but only to the extent) that contracting for or receiving such payment by the Bank would be contrary to the provisions of any law applicable to the Bank limiting the highest rate of interest which may be lawfully contracted for, charged or received by the Bank, and in such event the Borrowers shall pay the Bank interest at the highest rate permitted by applicable law (“Maximum Lawful Rate”); provided, however, that if at any time thereafter the rate of interest payable hereunder is less than the Maximum Lawful Rate, the Borrowers shall continue to pay interest hereunder at the Maximum Lawful Rate until such time as the total interest received by the Bank is equal to the total interest that would have been received had the interest payable hereunder been (but for the operation of this paragraph) the interest rate payable since the Closing Date as otherwise provided in this Agreement.

(e) In connection with the use or administration of Term SOFR, Xxxxxx will have the right to make Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document. The Lender will promptly notify the Borrower of the effectiveness of any Conforming Changes in connection with the use or administration of Term SOFR.

(f) Determination of Interest Rate

(i) Subject to Section 1.16, if, on or prior to the first day of any Interest Period for any SOFR Rate Loan, Lender determines (A) (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that “Adjusted Term SOFR” cannot be determined pursuant to the definition thereof, or (B) that for any reason in connection with any request for a SOFR Rate Loan that Adjusted Term SOFR for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed SOFR Rate Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to Lender of funding such Loan, the Lender will promptly so notify the Borrower.

(ii) Upon notice thereof by Lender to the Borrower, any obligation of the Lender to make SOFR Rate Loans shall be suspended (to the extent of the affected SOFR Rate Loans or affected Interest Periods) until the Lender revokes such notice and Adjusted Term SOFR shall be a rate per annum determined by the Lender in its Permitted Discretion.

1.4 Maturity Date. The Borrowers hereby unconditionally promise to pay to the Bank the then unpaid principal amount of all loans and advances made respecting the Revolving Loans, together with all accrued interest thereon and all other amounts due and payable hereunder in connection with the Revolving Loans, on the Maturity Date or such earlier date following acceleration thereof or the termination of this Agreement. In addition, the Bank’s agreement to advance funds respecting the Revolving Loans shall expire on the Maturity Date and there shall be no further advances respecting the Revolving Loans unless the Bank agrees, in writing, in its sole discretion, to extend the Maturity Date. Anything to the contrary notwithstanding, if the Bank makes advances in its sole discretion beyond any Maturity Date, either with or without an agreed extension thereof with or without a writing, all such advances shall constitute Obligations, shall be secured by the Collateral, and shall be governed by the Loan Documents.

-4-

1.5 Other Obligations Due at Maturity. In the event that the Revolving Credit Facility matures or is terminated for any reason prior to its Maturity Date, then in such event the principal balance, accrued and unpaid interest and all other sums due or outstanding under any loan or advance not arising from the Revolving Credit Facility shall accelerate and become due and payable simultaneously with the payment of all sums due and payable under the Revolving Credit Facility.

1.6 Monthly Statement and Automatic Charges. At the option of the Bank, after the end of each month, the Bank may, but shall not be obligated to, render to the Borrowers a statement of the Credit Extensions showing the loan balance and all applicable credits and debits. Each statement shall be conclusive, binding and final for all purposes, absent manifest error and deemed to have been accepted by the Borrower and shall be binding upon the Borrowers in respect of the loan balance and all charges, debits and credits of whatsoever nature contained therein respecting the Credit Extensions, unless the Borrowers notify the Bank in writing of any discrepancy within twenty (20) days from the transmittal by the Bank to the Borrower of any such monthly statement. At the option of the Bank, all payments in respect of any Obligation will automatically be debited from any of the Borrowers’ accounts, as elected by the Bank.

1.7 Fees. The Borrowers shall pay to the Bank all of the fees set forth on Annex 2 hereto.

1.8 Computations of Interest and Fees. All computations of interest and of fees (other than flat fees) shall be made by the Bank on the basis of a year of 360 days for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest and fees are payable. Each determination of an interest rate or the amount of a fee hereunder shall be made by the Bank and shall be conclusive, binding and final for all purposes, absent manifest error. All fees shall be (a) deemed to be an Obligation, (b) fully earned on the earlier of (i) the date specified such fee is earned or (ii) the date such fee is payable and (c) nonrefundable and shall not be subject to reduction, rebate or proration whatsoever.

(a) Increased Costs. If at any time the Bank determines that, after the date hereof, the adoption of, or any change in or in the interpretation, application or administration of, or compliance with, any law, statute, rule, regulation or other similar Requirements of Law of any Governmental Authority shall have the effect of (i) increasing the cost to the Bank of making, funding or maintaining any Credit Extension or to agree to do so or of participating, or agreeing to participate, in extensions of credit, or (ii) imposing any other cost to the Bank with respect to compliance with its obligations under any Loan Document, then, upon demand by the Bank, the Borrowers shall pay to the Bank amounts sufficient to compensate the Bank for such increased cost.

(c) Compensation Certificate. Each demand for compensation under this Section 1.9 shall be accompanied by a certificate of the Bank claiming such compensation, setting forth in reasonable detail the computation of the amounts to be paid hereunder, which certificate shall be conclusive, binding and final for all purposes, absent manifest error. In determining such amount, the Bank may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods.

1.10 Taxes.

(a) Payments Free and Clear of Taxes. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 1.10, each payment by Borrowers under any Loan Document shall be made free and clear of all present or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings and all liabilities with respect thereto (and without deduction for any of them) (collectively, the “Taxes”) other than for taxes measured by net income (including branch profits taxes) and franchise taxes imposed in lieu of net income taxes, in each case imposed on the Bank as a result of a present or former connection between the Bank and the jurisdiction of the Governmental Authority imposing such tax or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein (other than such connection arising solely from the Bank having executed, delivered or performed its obligations or received a payment under, or enforced, any Loan Document).

(b) Gross-Up. If any Taxes shall be required by law to be deducted from or in respect of any amount payable under any Loan Document to the Bank (i) such amount shall be increased as necessary to ensure that, after all required deductions for Taxes are made (including deductions applicable to any increases to any amount under this Section 1.10), the Bank receives the amount it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Borrowers shall make such deductions and (iii) the Borrowers shall timely pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxing authority or other authority in accordance with applicable Requirements of Law.

-6-

(c) Other Taxes. In addition, Borrowers agree to pay, and authorizes the Bank to pay in its name to the extent such party fails to do so, on or prior to the date when due, any stamp, documentary, excise or property tax, charges or similar levies imposed by any applicable Requirement of Law or Governmental Authority and all liabilities with respect thereto (including by reason of any delay in payment thereof), in each case arising from the execution, delivery or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, any Loan Document or any transaction contemplated therein (collectively, “Other Taxes”).

A certificate of the Bank claiming any compensation under this clause (d), setting forth in reasonable detail the computation of the amounts to be paid thereunder and delivered to the Borrowers shall be conclusive, binding and final for all purposes, absent manifest error. In determining such amount, the Bank may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods.

1.11 Initial Conditions to Credit Extensions. The Bank’s obligation to make the first Credit Extension hereunder shall be subject to the fulfillment by Borrowers on or before the Closing Date of all conditions required by the Bank in its sole discretion, including those set forth in Section 3 of Annex 2.

(b) No Material Adverse Change. There shall have been no Material Adverse Effect since the Closing Date; and

(c) No Default. There shall have occurred no Event of Default or any condition or event which would upon notice or lapse of time, or both, constitute an Event of Default; and

1.13 Letters of Credit.

(a) Issuance of Letters of Credit. Subject to all of the terms and conditions hereof, Bank agrees to establish the LC Facility pursuant to which, during the period from the date hereof to the Maturity Date, the Bank on behalf of any Borrower shall make available to the Borrower one or more Letters of Credit on the Borrower’s request therefor from time to time, subject to the following terms and conditions:

-7-

(i) The Bank will not be required to issue any Letter of Credit to the extent that the issuance thereof would cause the LC Obligations to exceed the Maximum LC Obligation or the sum of Revolving Loans plus the LC Obligations to exceed the Maximum Facility Amount.

(ii) The Borrower acknowledges that the Bank’s willingness to issue any Letter of Credit is conditioned upon (a) the Bank’s receipt of (i) an LC Application executed by an Authorized Person with respect to the requested Letter of Credit, (ii) such LC Support as the Bank, in the exercise of its sole discretion, requests, and (iii) such other instruments and agreements as the Bank may customarily require for the issuance of a letter of credit of equivalent type and amount as the requested Letter of Credit, and (b) the satisfaction of each of the LC Conditions and compliance with Section 1.11. In no event shall the Bank have any liability or obligation to Borrower for any failure or refusal by the Bank to issue, for the Bank’s delay in issuing, or for any error of the Bank in issuing or failure to issue, any Letter of Credit.

(iii) Letters of Credit may be requested only if they are to be used (a) to support obligations of the Borrower incurred in the ordinary course of business of the Borrower, or (b) for such other purposes as the Bank may approve from time to time in writing.

(iv) The Borrower shall comply with all of the terms and conditions imposed on it by the Bank, whether such terms and conditions are contained in an LC Application or in any agreement with respect thereto, shall pay all of the Bank’s fees customarily charged in connection with the application for, issuance, and negotiation of letters of credit, and all of the rights and remedies that the Bank has under an LC Application or any agreement related thereto shall be in addition to any rights and remedies of the Bank contained in any of the Loan Documents. The Borrower agrees to reimburse the Bank for any draw under any Letter of Credit on the date drawn, and to pay the Bank the amount of all other liabilities and obligations payable to the Bank under or in connection with any Letter of Credit immediately when due, irrespective of any claim, setoff, defense or other right that the Borrower may have at any time against the Bank or any other Person. Until the Bank has received payment from the Borrower in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this clause (iv), the Bank, in addition to all of its other rights and remedies under this Agreement, shall (A) be entitled to interest at the rate otherwise applicable to Revolving Loans hereunder (including, if applicable, the rate in 1.3(c)) and (B) be fully subrogated to the rights and remedies of each beneficiary under a Letter of Credit whose claims against the Borrower have been discharged with the proceeds of such Letter of Credit. Whether or not the Borrower submits any request for a Revolving Loan to the Bank, the Borrower shall be deemed to have requested from the Bank a Revolving Loan in an amount necessary to pay to the Bank all amounts due the Bank pursuant to this clause (iv).

-8-

(v) The Borrower assumes all risks of the acts, omissions or misuses of any Letter of Credit by the beneficiary thereof. The obligation of the Borrower to reimburse the Bank for all amounts paid by the Bank by reason of a Letter of Credit shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid without regard to any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit, the existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other right which the Borrower may have at any time against a beneficiary of any Letter of Credit, or improper honor by the Bank of any draw request under a Letter of Credit. If presentation of a demand, draft, certificate or other document does not comply with the terms of a Letter of Credit and the Borrower contends that, as a consequence of such noncompliance, it has no obligation to reimburse the Bank for any payment made with respect thereto, the Borrower shall nevertheless be obligated to reimburse the Bank for any payment made by the Bank with respect to such Letter of Credit, but without waiving any claim the Borrower may have against the Bank in connection therewith.

(vi) No Letter of Credit shall be extended or amended in any respect unless all of the LC Conditions are met as though a new Letter of Credit were being requested and issued.

(b) Cash Collateral Account. Upon the Bank’s demand therefor with respect to any given Letter of Credit, and in the case of any Letter of Credit which expires according to its terms after the Maturity Date of the Revolving Credit Facility, the Borrower shall Cash Collateralize such Letter of Credit in an amount equal to 110% of the sum of aggregate undrawn amounts of such Letter of Credit plus all related fees and other amounts due or to become due in connection with such Letter of Credit and related LC Obligations. The Borrower hereby pledges to the Bank and grants to the Bank a security interest in all Cash Collateral held in the Cash Collateral Account from time to time and all proceeds thereof, as security for the payment of all Obligations, whether or not then due or payable. From time to time after cash is deposited in the Cash Collateral Account (which Cash Collateral Account may, in the Bank’s sole discretion, be a separate, segregated account maintained at the Bank), the Bank may apply Cash Collateral then held in the Cash Collateral Account to the payment of any amounts, in such order as the Bank may elect, as shall be or shall become due and payable by the Borrower to the Bank with respect to the LC Obligations. Neither the Borrower nor any other Person claiming by, thru, under or on behalf of the Borrower shall have any right to withdraw any of the Cash Collateral held in the Cash Collateral Account, provided that upon termination or expiration of all Letters of Credit and the payment and satisfaction of all of the LC Obligations, any Cash Collateral remaining in the Cash Collateral Account shall be returned to the Borrower unless an Event of Default then exists (in which event the Bank may apply such Cash Collateral to the payment of any other Obligations outstanding, with any surplus to be turned over to the Borrower).

1.14 Restatement of Revolving Credit Facility. Except as expressly modified in this Agreement and any agreement, instrument or document executed in conjunction herewith, each of the Existing Loan Documents remain in full force and effect including all recordings and filings. In the event that there is a conflict between provisions of the Existing Loan Documents on the one hand, and this Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement and any agreements, instruments and documents executed in conjunction herewith on the other hand, the provisions of the latter shall govern, it being acknowledged and agreed that nothing in any of the Loan Documents shall in any way adversely affect any prior recordings or filings made in connection with the Existing Loan Documents. This Agreement (together with all documents executed in conjunction herewith) restates the Revolving Credit Facility; provided, however, that this Agreement (together with all documents executed in conjunction herewith) is not intended to be, nor shall it be construed as, (i) an extinguishment of the outstanding indebtedness owed to the Bank under Existing Loan Documents, or (ii) an extinguishment of any liens or security interests previously granted to the Bank pursuant to the Existing Loan Documents, all of which are to continue in full force and effect for the benefit of, and in all respects shall remain enforceable by, the Bank, such that the existence and priority of all previously created liens and security interests shall continue uninterrupted from the dates originally established. This Agreement is given in amendment, modification, and restatement, but not in extinguishment or novation of the Existing Loan Documents or any Obligations heretofore arising therefrom, which Obligations are continued under the terms of this Agreement and are secured by the Collateral, anything to the contrary notwithstanding.

1.15 Illegality. If Lender determines that any Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for Lender or its applicable lending office to make, maintain or fund Loans hereunder, any obligation of Lender to make SOFR Rate Loans shall be suspended until Lender notifies the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist and the Adjusted Term SOFR shall be a rate per annum determined by the Lender in its Permitted Discretion. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, upon demand from Lender, prepay all SOFR Rate Loans either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such SOFR Rate Loans to such day, or immediately, if Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such SOFR Rate Loans to such day until it is no longer illegal for Lender to determine or charge interest rates based upon SOFR, the Term SOFR Reference Rate, Adjusted Term SOFR or Term SOFR. Upon any such prepayment, the Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid.

1.16 Benchmark Replacement Settings.

(a) Benchmark Replacement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, Lender and the Borrower (without, except as specifically provided in the following two sentences, any action or consent by any other party to this Agreement) may amend this Agreement to replace the then-current Benchmark with a Benchmark Replacement. Any such amendment with respect to a Benchmark Transition Event will become effective at 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth (5^th) Business Day after the Lender has delivered such proposed amendment to Borrower . No replacement of a Benchmark with a Benchmark Replacement pursuant to this Section 1.16 will occur prior to the applicable Benchmark Transition Start Date.

(b) Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. In connection with the use, administration, adoption or implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the Lender will have the right to make Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

-10-

(c) Notices; Standards for Decisions and Determinations. The Lender will promptly notify the Borrower of (i) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement and (ii) the effectiveness of any Conforming Changes in connection with the use, administration, adoption or implementation of a Benchmark Replacement. The Lender will promptly notify the Borrower of the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of a Benchmark pursuant to Section 1.16(d). Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Lender pursuant to this Section 1.16(c), including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or any selection, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent from any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 1.16(c).

(d) Unavailability of Tenor of Benchmark. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, at any time (including in connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement), (i) if the then-current Benchmark is a term rate (including the Term SOFR Reference Rate) and either (A) any tenor for such Benchmark is not displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such rate from time to time as selected by the Lender in its reasonable discretion or (B) the administrator of such Benchmark or the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark has provided a public statement or publication of information announcing that any tenor for such Benchmark is not or will not be representative or in compliance with or aligned with the International Organization of Securities Commissions (IOSCO) Principles for Financial Benchmarks, then the Lender may modify the definition of “Interest Period” (or any similar or analogous definition) for any Benchmark settings at or after such time to remove such unavailable, non-representative, non-compliant or non-aligned tenor and (ii) if a tenor that was removed pursuant to clause (i) above either (A) is subsequently displayed on a screen or information service for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement) or (B) is not, or is no longer, subject to an announcement that it is not or will not be representative or in compliance with or aligned with the International Organization of Securities Commissions (IOSCO) Principles for Financial Benchmarks for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement), then the Lender may modify the definition of “Interest Period” (or any similar or analogous definition) for all Benchmark settings at or after such time to reinstate such previously removed tenor.

(e)  Conflict. In the event the provisions of this Section 1.16 conflict with any other Section of this Loan Agreement, this Section 1.16 shall govern.

2. GRANT OF SECURITY INTEREST AND COLLATERAL MATTERS

2.1 Grant of Security Interest. In consideration of the Bank’s extending credit and other financial accommodations to or for the benefit of the Borrowers, whether under the Existing Loan Documents, this Agreement or otherwise, and whether evidenced by notes or not, Borrowers have heretofore granted and continue to grant, and all Borrowers hereby grant, to the Bank a first priority security interest in, a lien on, and pledge and assignment of the Collateral owned by Borrowers. The security interest, lien, pledge and assignment granted by the Existing Loan Documents and this Agreement are given to and shall be held by the Bank as security for the payment and performance of all Obligations, including, without limitation, all amounts outstanding pursuant to the Loan Documents.

Borrowers shall promptly make, stamp or record such entries or legends on Borrowers’ books and records or on any of the Collateral (including, without limitation, chattel paper) as Bank shall request from time to time, to indicate and disclose that Bank has a security interest in such Collateral.

2.6 Inspection. The Bank, or its representatives, at such times as are set forth in Annex 2, shall have the right at the sole cost and expense of Borrowers, and Borrowers will permit the Bank and/or its representatives: (a) to examine, check, make copies of or extracts from any of Borrowers’ books, records and files (including, without limitation, orders and original correspondence); (b) to perform field exams or otherwise inspect and examine the Collateral and to check, test or appraise the same as to age, quality, quantity, value and condition; and (c) to verify the Collateral or any portion or portions thereof or Borrowers’ compliance with the provisions of this Agreement.

Borrowers hereby irrevocably authorize and direct all accountants and auditors employed or engaged by Borrowers at any time during the term of this Agreement and all data processing centers or other persons having information relevant to Borrowers’ financial condition to deliver copies of all materials in their possession to the Bank upon the Bank’s request therefor.

-12-

2.7 Purchase Money Security Interests. To the extent Borrowers use proceeds of any loans to purchase Collateral, the repayment of such loans shall be on a “first-in-first-out” basis so that the portion of the loan used to purchase a particular item of Collateral shall be repaid in the order in which Borrowers purchased such item of Collateral.

2.8 Search Reports and Credit Reports. Bank shall receive, prior to the date of this Agreement and from time to time thereafter as Bank may determine in its reasonable discretion, UCC search results under all names used by Borrowers during the prior five (5) years, from each jurisdiction where any Collateral is located, from the State, if any, where Borrowers are organized and registered, the State where Borrowers’ chief executive office is located and all other locations deemed necessary by the Bank. The search results shall confirm that the Lien on the Collateral granted Bank hereunder is prior to all other Liens in favor of any other Person. The Bank is authorized to make all inquiries the Bank deems necessary to verify the accuracy of the information in respect of Borrowers contained in the Loan Documents and to determine the credit worthiness of Borrowers. Borrowers authorize any Person or credit reporting agency to give to the Bank any information it may have on Borrowers. Borrowers authorize the Bank to answer questions about Borrowers’ credit experience with the Bank.

2.9 Further Assurances. Borrowers will, at the request of the Bank, from time to time, at its own cost and expense, execute and deliver to Bank such documents, and take or cause to be taken, all such other or further action, as Bank may request in order to effect and confirm or vest in Bank all rights contemplated by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including, without limitation, to correct clerical errors) or to vest more fully in or assure to the Bank the security interest in the Collateral granted to the Bank by this Agreement or to comply with applicable statute or law and to facilitate the collection of the Collateral (including, without limitation, the execution of stock transfer orders and stock powers, endorsement of promissory notes and instruments and notifications to obligors on the Collateral). To the extent permitted by applicable law, Borrowers authorize the Bank to file financing statements, continuation statements or amendments, and any such financing statements, continuation statements or amendments may be filed at any time in any jurisdiction. Bank may at any time and from time to time file financing statements, continuation statements and amendments thereto which contain any information required by the Code for the sufficiency or filing office acceptance of any financing statement, continuation statement or amendment, including the description of the Collateral as “all assets” or “all property”, whether such Borrower is an organization, the type of organization and any organization identification number issued to same. Borrowers agree to furnish any such information to Bank promptly upon request. In addition, Borrowers shall at any time and from time to time take such steps as Bank may reasonably request for Bank (i) to obtain an acknowledgement, in form and substance satisfactory to Bank, of any bailee having possession of any of the Collateral that the bailee holds such Collateral for Bank, (ii) to obtain control of any Collateral comprised of deposit accounts, electronic chattel paper, letter of credit rights or investment property, with any agreements establishing control to be in form and substance satisfactory to Bank, (iii) to obtain a mortgage or deed of trust on any real property owned by Xxxxxxxxx and to obtain all necessary surveys, title insurance and other requirements in connection with such mortgage or deed of trust, and (iv) otherwise to insure the continued perfection and priority of Bank’s security interest in any of the Collateral and the preservation of its rights therein. Borrowers hereby constitute Bank its attorney-in-fact to execute, if necessary, and file all filings required or so requested for the foregoing purposes, all acts of such attorney being hereby ratified and confirmed; and such power, being coupled with an interest, shall be irrevocable until this Agreement terminates in accordance with its terms, all Obligations are irrevocably paid in full and the Collateral is released.

-13-

2.10 Subordination. It is acknowledged that the sum, if any, set forth on Annex 3 (such Indebtedness referred to as “Subordinated Debt”) is currently due from Borrower to those creditors set forth on Annex 3 (each a “Subordinator”). If at any time there shall be Indebtedness that constitutes Subordinated Debt, Borrowers agree to procure from each Subordinator an agreement of subordination (the “Subordination Agreement”) satisfactory to the Bank pursuant to which each Subordinator acknowledges and agrees that any Subordinated Debt owed to such Subordinator is subordinate, inferior and subject to the satisfaction of all Obligations due the Bank, and that the failure of such Subordinator to execute and deliver such Subordination Agreement to the Bank shall constitute an Event of Default hereunder.

6.2 Acceleration. If an Event of Default shall occur, at the election of the Bank, but automatically in the case of an Event of Default under Sections 6.1(k) and 6.1(l) above, all Obligations shall become immediately due and payable without notice or demand. The Bank is hereby authorized, at its election, after an Event of Default, without any further demand or notice except to such extent as notice may be required by applicable law, to take possession and/or sell or otherwise dispose of all or any of the Collateral at public or private sale; and the Bank may also exercise any and all other rights and remedies of a secured party under the Code or which are otherwise accorded to it in equity or at law, all as Bank may determine, and such exercise of rights in compliance with the requirements of law will not be considered adversely to affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale or other disposition of the Collateral. If notice of a sale or other action by the Bank is required by applicable law, unless the Collateral is perishable or threatens to decline speedily in value or is of a type customarily sold on a recognized market, Borrower agrees that ten (10) days’ written notice to such party, or the shortest period of written notice permitted by such law, whichever is smaller, shall be sufficient notice; and that to the extent permitted by law, the Bank, Bank Affiliates, its officers, attorneys and agents may bid and become purchasers at any such sale, if public, and may purchase at any private sale any of the Collateral that is of a type customarily sold on a recognized market or which is the subject of widely distributed standard price quotations. Any sale (public or private) shall be without warranty and free from any right of redemption, which Borrower hereby waives and releases. No purchaser at any sale (public or private) shall be responsible for the application of the purchase money. The proceeds of any collection or of any sale or disposition of the Collateral held pursuant to this Agreement shall be applied towards the Obligations in such order and manner as the Bank determines in its sole discretion, any statute, custom or usage to the contrary notwithstanding and the Bank shall have the unrestricted right from time to time to change any application already made of the proceeds of any of the Collateral to any of the Obligations, as the Bank in its sole discretion may determine. Any balance of the net proceeds of sale remaining after paying all Obligations of the Borrower to the Bank shall be returned to Borrower or such other Person as may be legally entitled thereto; and if there is a deficiency, the Borrower shall be responsible for repayment of the same, with interest. Upon demand by the Bank, Borrower shall assemble the Collateral and make it available to the Bank at a place designated by the Bank which is reasonably convenient to the Bank and such party. Borrower hereby acknowledges that the Bank has extended credit and other financial accommodations to the Borrower upon reliance of Borrower granting the Bank the rights and remedies contained in this Agreement including without limitation the right to take immediate possession of the Collateral upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and Borrower hereby acknowledges that the Bank is entitled to equitable and injunctive relief to enforce any of its rights and remedies hereunder or under the Code and Borrower hereby waives any defense to such equitable or injunctive relief based upon any allegation of the absence of irreparable harm to the Bank. The Bank may for any reason apply for the appointment of a receiver of the Collateral (to which appointment Borrower hereby consents) without the necessity of posting a bond or other form of security (which Borrower hereby Borrower Cash Collateralize the LC Obligations at such time, such Cash Collateral to be held by the Bank in a Cash Collateral Account on terms and conditions satisfactory to the Bank in its sole discretion.

Borrower acknowledges that any exercise by the Bank of the Bank’s rights upon an Event of Default may be subject to compliance by the Bank with any Requirement of Law of any Governmental Authority, and may impose, without limitation, any of the foregoing restricting the sale of securities. The Bank, in its sole discretion at any such sale, may restrict the prospective bidders or purchasers as to their number, nature of business and investment intentions, and may impose, without limitation, a requirement that the Persons making such purchases represent and agree, to the satisfaction of the Bank, that they are purchasing the Collateral for their own account, for investment, and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof.

The Bank shall not be required to marshal any present or future security for (including but not limited to this Agreement and the Collateral subject to the security interest created hereby), or Guarantees of, the Obligations or any of them, or to resort to such security or Guarantees in any particular order; and all of its rights hereunder and in respect of such securities and Guaranties shall be cumulative and in addition to all other rights, however existing or arising. To the extent that it lawfully may do so, Borrower hereby agrees that it will not invoke any law relating to the marshaling of collateral which might cause delay in or impede the enforcement of the Bank’s rights under this Agreement or under any other instrument evidencing any of the Obligations or under which any of the Obligations is outstanding or by which any of the Obligations is secured or guaranteed, and to the extent that it lawfully may do so, Borrower hereby irrevocably waives the benefits of all such laws. Except as required by applicable law, the Bank shall have no duty as to the collection or protection of the Collateral or any income thereon, nor as to the preservation of rights against prior parties, nor as to the preservation of any rights pertaining thereto beyond the safe custody thereof.

-30-

6.3 Power of Attorney. Borrower hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Bank as Borrower’s true and lawful attorney, with full power of substitution, at the sole cost and expense of Borrower but for the sole benefit of the Bank, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, to convert the Collateral into cash, including, without limitation, completing the manufacture or processing of work in process, and the sale (either public or private) of all or any portion or portions of the inventory and other Collateral; to use pursuant to a royalty free license all of Borrower’s intellectual property; to enforce collection of the Collateral, either in its own name or in the name of Borrower, including, without limitation, executing releases or waivers, compromising or settling with any Account Debtors and prosecuting, defending, compromising or releasing any action relating to the Collateral; to receive, open and dispose of all mail addressed to Borrower and to take therefrom any remittances or proceeds of Collateral in which the Bank has a security interest; to notify Post Office authorities to change the address for delivery of mail addressed to Borrower to such address as the Bank shall designate; to endorse the name of Borrower in favor of the Bank upon any and all checks, drafts, money orders, notes, acceptances or other instruments of the same or different nature; to sign and endorse the name of Borrower on and to receive as secured party any of the Collateral, any invoices, freight or express receipts, or bills of lading, storage receipts, warehouse receipts, or other documents of title of the same or different nature relating to the Collateral; to sign the name of Borrower on any notice of the Account Debtors or on verification of the Collateral; and to sign, if necessary, and file or record on behalf of Borrower any financing or other statement in order to perfect or protect the Bank’s security interest. The Bank shall not be obliged to do any of the acts or exercise any of the powers hereinabove authorized, but if the Bank elects to do any such act or exercise any such power, it shall not be accountable for more than it actually receives as a result of such exercise of power, and it shall not be responsible to Borrower except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. All powers conferred upon the Bank by this Agreement, being coupled with an interest, shall be irrevocable so long as any Obligation of Borrower to the Bank shall remain unpaid or the Bank is obligated under this Agreement to extend any credit to the Borrower.

6.4 Nonexclusive Remedies. All of the Bank’s rights and remedies not only under the provisions of this Agreement but also under any other agreement or transaction shall be cumulative and not alternative or exclusive, and may be exercised by the Bank at such time or times and in such order of preference as the Bank in its sole discretion may determine.

6.5 Reassignment to Loan Party. Whenever the Bank deems it desirable that any legal action be instituted with respect to any Collateral or that any other action be taken in any attempt to effectuate collection of any Collateral, the Bank may reassign the item in question to Borrower (and if the Bank shall execute any such reassignment, it shall automatically be deemed to be without warranty or recourse to the Bank in any event) and require Borrower to proceed with such legal or other action at Borrower’s sole liability, cost and expense, in which event all amounts collected by Borrower on such item shall nevertheless be subject to the Bank’s security interest.
