| 4. | Extension. The parties hereto hereby confirm and agree that, as of the Tenth Amendment Date, the Revolving Period is extended to, and therefore the Term Conversion Date shall be, May 31, 2021; provided that: |
| (a) | on March 31, 2020, the Revolving Period shall end, without further action by the Agent or any of the Lenders if the Borrower has not concluded and entered into definitive documentation with its landlord, Degi Homburg Xxxxxx Limited Partnership (together with its successors and assigns, the “Landlord”), in respect of: (A) a reduction of the net rent payable under the amended and restated lease agreement dated as of April 15, 2008 between the Borrower and the Landlord (as amended and supplemented to the date hereof, the “Office Lease”) to an aggregate amount not to exceed [REDACTED] and (B) an indemnity in respect of the existing subleases of the Office Lease, such definitive documentation in form and substance satisfactory to the Agent and each of the Lenders, each in their sole and absolute discretion, and the Agent and the Lenders shall have received an officer’s certificate of the Borrower attaching certified true and complete copies of such definitive documentation; and |
| (b) | if any one of the Lenders, in its sole and absolute discretion, provides notice to the Agent and the Borrower in writing on or before June 22, 2020 that the Revolving Period shall end, and therefore the Term Conversion Date shall be, June 30, 2020, then the Revolving Period shall be deemed to end on, and the Term Conversion Date shall be, June 30, 2020 for all purposes hereof and of the other Documents and without the requirement for any step or action whatsoever. |

Notwithstanding any provision in the Credit Agreement or any other Document to the contrary, any amount be applied by the Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof for permanent repayments or prepayments, as the case may be, of the Aggregate Principal Amount and permanent reductions of the Commitment Amount after February 28, 2020, whether voluntary or through mandatory application of asset disposition proceeds or enforcement of obligations as a result of a Bankruptcy or Insolvency, shall be a True-Up Payment and shall be made to the Agent and/or the holders of the Existing Notes, as the case may be, in accordance with the True-Up Payment Application, and, for certainty, any such repayment or |
-6-
prepayment of the Aggregate Principal Amount shall result in an automatic and corresponding dollar-for-dollar permanent reduction in the Commitment Amount. For greater certainty, any voluntary repayment of the Aggregate Principal Amount in the ordinary course of business, as part of the revolving nature of the Credit Facilities, shall not result in a permanent reduction of the Commitment Amount.
| 6. | Conditions Precedent. This Tenth Amending Agreement is only effective upon and is subject to the satisfaction of the following conditions precedent: |
