ARTICLE II.
TERMS OF THE CREDIT FACILITIES

Part A—Terms of Lending

Section 2.1. The Commitments. On the terms and subject to the conditions hereof, the Bank agrees to make the following lending facilities available to the Borrower:

(a) Revolving Loans. Revolving loans (the “Revolving Loans”) to the Borrower on a revolving basis at any time and from time to time from the Effective Date to the Termination Date, during which period the Borrower may borrow, repay, and reborrow in accordance with the provisions hereof, provided, that no Revolving Loan will be made in any amount that, after giving effect thereto, would cause the Total Revolving Outstandings to exceed the Revolving Commitment Amount.

(b) Term Loan. A term loan (the “Term Loan”) from the Bank to the Borrower on the Effective Date in the amount of $35,000,000.

Section 2.2. Procedure for Revolving Loans. Any request by the Borrower for a Revolving Loan shall be in writing or by telephone and shall be received by the Bank not later than 9:00 A.M. (Pacific time) two Banking Days prior to the requested Revolving Loan Date if the Revolving Loan (or any portion thereof) is requested as a LIBOR Rate Loan and not later than 12:00 P.M. (Pacific time) on the requested Revolving Loan Date if the Revolving Loan is requested as a Prime Rate Loan. Each request for a Revolving Loan hereunder shall be irrevocable and shall be deemed a representation by the Borrower that on the requested Revolving Loan Date and after giving effect to the requested Revolving Loan the applicable conditions specified in Article III have been and will be satisfied. Each request for a Revolving Loan shall specify (i) the requested Revolving Loan Date, (ii) the amount of the Revolving Loan to be made on such date, (iii) whether such Revolving Loan is to be funded as a Prime Rate Loan or a LIBOR Rate Loan (and, if such Revolving Loan is to be made with more than one applicable interest rate choice, the amount to which each interest rate choice is applicable), and (iv) in the case of a LIBOR Rate Loan, the duration of the initial Loan Period applicable thereto. The Bank may rely on any telephone request by the Borrower for a Revolving Loan that it believes in good faith to be genuine, and the Borrower hereby waives the right to dispute the Bank’s record of the terms of such telephone request. Unless the Bank determines that any applicable condition specified in Article III has not been satisfied, the Bank will make available to the Borrower at the Bank’s principal office in Newport Beach, California in Immediately Available Funds not later than 3:00 P.M. (Pacific time) on the requested Revolving Loan Date the amount of the requested Revolving Loan.

Section 2.3. The Notes. The Revolving Loans shall be evidenced by a single Revolving Note payable to the order of the Bank in a principal amount equal to the Revolving Commitment Amount. The Term Loan shall be evidenced by a Term Note payable to the order of the Bank in the principal amount of the Term Loan. The Bank shall enter in its ledgers and records the amount of each Advance, any conversion or continuation thereof, and the payments made thereon; provided, however, that any failure by the Bank to make any such entry or any error in making such entry shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the Borrower hereunder and on the Notes, and, in all events, the principal amounts owing by the Borrower in

respect of the Revolving Note shall be the aggregate amount of all Revolving Loans made by the Bank less all payments of principal thereof made by the Borrower and the principal amount owing by the Borrower in respect of the Term Note shall be the aggregate amount of the Term Loan less all payments of principal thereof made by the Borrower.

Section 2.4. Interest Rates; Conversions and Continuations; Etc.

(a) Interest Rate Options. Interest on each Advance shall accrue at one of the following per annum rates selected by the Borrower: (i) upon notice to the Bank, the Applicable Margin plus the prime rate announced by the Bank from time to time (the “Prime Rate”), as and when such rate changes (a “Prime Rate Loan”); or (ii) upon a minimum of two Banking Days’ prior notice, the Applicable Margin plus the 1, 3, 6, or 12 month LIBOR rate quoted by the Bank from Reuters Screen LIBOR01 Page or any successor thereto (which shall be the LIBOR rate in effect two Banking Days prior to commencement of the advance), adjusted for any reserve requirement and any subsequent costs arising from a change in government regulation (a “LIBOR Rate Loan”), provided, however, that no Advance may be converted into or continued as a LIBOR Rate Loan if after giving effect to such conversion or continuation there would be more than 5 LIBOR Rate Loans outstanding.

(b) Conversions and Continuations. In the event the Borrower does not timely select another interest rate option at least two Banking Days before the end of the Loan Period for a LIBOR Rate Loan, the Bank may at any time after the end of the Loan Period convert such LIBOR Rate Loan to a Prime Rate Loan, but until such conversion, the funds advanced under the LIBOR Rate Loan shall continue to accrue interest at the same rate as the interest rate in effect for such LIBOR Rate Loan prior to the end of the Loan Period. The term “Loan Period” means the period commencing on the advance date of the applicable LIBOR Rate Loan and ending on the numerically corresponding day 1, 3, 6, or 12 months thereafter matching the interest rate term selected by the Borrower; provided, that (a) if any Loan Period would otherwise end on a day that is not a Banking Day, then the Loan Period shall end on the next succeeding Banking Day unless the next succeeding Banking Day falls in another calendar month, in which case the Loan Period shall end on the immediately preceding Banking Day; or (b) if any Loan Period begins on the last Banking Day of a calendar month (or on a day for which there is no numerically corresponding day in the calendar month at the end of the Loan Period), then the Loan Period shall end on the last Banking Day of the calendar month at the end of such Loan Period.

(c) Limitations on LIBOR Rate Loans. No LIBOR Rate Loan may extend beyond the Termination Date (with respect Revolving Loans) or beyond the Term Loan Maturity Date (with respect to the Term Loan). In any event, if the Loan Period for a LIBOR Rate Loan extends beyond the Termination Date (with respect Revolving Loans) or beyond the Term Loan Maturity Date (with respect to the Term Loan), such LIBOR Rate Loan must be prepaid on the Termination Date (with respect Revolving Loans) or the Term Loan Maturity Date (with respect to the Term Loan). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Bank’s internal records of applicable interest rates shall be determinative absent manifest error. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, each LIBOR Rate Loan shall be in a minimum principal amount of $500,000.

(d) Prepayment of LIBOR Rate Loans. If a LIBOR Rate Loan is prepaid prior to the end of the applicable Loan Period, whether voluntarily or because prepayment is required due to the relevant Loan maturing, acceleration of the relevant Loan upon an Event of Default, or otherwise, the Borrower shall pay all of the Bank’s costs, expenses, and Interest Differential (as determined by the Bank)

incurred as a result of such prepayment. The term “Interest Differential” means the greater of zero and the financial loss incurred by the Bank resulting from prepayment, calculated as the difference between the amount of interest the Bank would have earned (from like investments in the Money Markets as of the first day of the LIBOR Rate Loan) had prepayment not occurred and the interest the Bank will actually earn (from like investments in the Money Markets as of the date of prepayment) as a result of the redeployment of funds from the prepayment. Because of the short-term nature of the Loan facilities, the Borrower agrees that the Interest Differential shall not be discounted to its present value. Any prepayment of a LIBOR Rate Loan shall be in an amount equal to the remaining entire principal balance of such LIBOR Rate Loan. The term “Money Markets” refers to one or more wholesale funding markets available to and selected by the Bank, including negotiable certificates of deposit, commercial paper, Eurodollar deposits, bank notes, federal funds, interest rate and swaps, or others.

(e) Interest Upon Event of Default. Upon any Event of Default, each Loan shall, at the option of the Bank (or, in the case of an Event of Default under Sections 7.1(e), (f), or (g), automatically upon such Event of Default), bear interest until paid in full at the rate otherwise applicable thereto plus 5.0% per annum. Further, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, upon any Event of Default, at the Bank’s option (or, in the case of an Event of Default under Sections 7.1(e), (f), or (g), automatically upon such Event of Default), no Advance may be made, converted, or continued as a LIBOR Rate Loan.

Section 2.5. Payment of Interest and Principal of Loans.

(a) Revolving Loans. Interest and principal on the Revolving Loans shall be paid as follows:

(i) Interest shall be payable (A) on the last day of each month, and (B) on the Termination Date; provided that interest under Section 2.4(e) shall be payable on demand.

(ii) Principal on the Revolving Loans is payable on the Termination Date.

(iii) The Bank is hereby authorized by the Borrower to charge on any day the depository accounts of the Borrower maintained with the Bank for any amount of accrued and unpaid interest or principal which is due and owing, unless such amount is being disputed in good faith in writing by the Borrower.

(b) Term Loan. Interest and principal upon the Term Loan shall be paid as follows:

(i) Interest shall be payable (A) on January 5, April 5, July 5, and October 5 of each year beginning on January 5, 2011, and (B) on the Term Loan Maturity Date; provided that interest under Section 2.4(e) shall be payable on demand.

(ii) Principal on the Term Loan is payable in installments of $2,200,000 each, on January 5, April 5, July 5, and October 5 of each year beginning on January 5, 2011, plus a final payment equal to all unpaid principal on the Term Loan Maturity Date.

Section 2.6. Prepayments.

(a) Optional Prepayments. The Borrower may prepay Prime Rate Loans, in whole or in part, at any time, without premium or penalty. Each partial prepayment shall be in a minimum amount of $500,000 or an integral multiple thereof. The Borrower may prepay LIBOR Rate Loans only if it pays any indemnities payable with respect thereto pursuant to Section 2.4(d).

(b) Mandatory Prepayments. If at any time the Borrower receives any payments in connection with the enforcement of its rights under the Acquisition Documents (Enson), the Borrower shall immediately pay to the Bank the net proceeds of such payments, together with any indemnities payable with respect to prepayment of LIBOR Rate Loans pursuant to Section 2.4(d). All such payments shall be applied to first to the scheduled principal payments on the Term Loan in the inverse order of their maturities and second to any outstanding Revolving Loans.

(c) Amounts paid (unless following an acceleration or upon termination of the Revolving Commitment in whole) or prepaid on Revolving Loans under this section may be reborrowed upon the terms and subject to the conditions and limitations of this Agreement. Amounts paid or prepaid on the Term Loan may not be reborrowed.

Part B—Terms of the Letter of Credit Facility

Section 2.7. Letters of Credit. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, the Bank agrees to issue commercial and standby Letters of Credit for the account of the Borrower from time to time between the Effective Date and the Termination Date in such amounts as the Borrower requests up to an aggregate amount at any time outstanding not exceeding the Revolving Commitment Amount; provided that no Letter of Credit will be issued in any amount that, after giving effect to such issuance, would cause (a) the Total Revolving Outstandings to exceed the Revolving Commitment Amount or (b) the Letter of Credit Outstandings with respect to standby Letters of Credit to exceed the Standby Letter of Credit Sublimit.

Section 2.8. Procedures for Letters of Credit. The Borrower shall make each request for a Letter of Credit in writing by facsimile transmission, or electronic conveyance received by the Bank by 12:00 P.M. (Pacific time) on a Banking Day that is not less than three Banking Days before the requested date of issuance (which shall also be a Banking Day). Each request for a Letter of Credit shall be deemed a representation by the Borrower that on the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit and after giving effect thereto the applicable conditions specified in Article III have been and will be satisfied. The Bank may require that such request be made on such letter of credit application and reimbursement agreement form as the Bank from time to time specifies, along with satisfactory evidence of the authority and incumbency of the officials of the Borrower making such request.

Section 2.9. Terms of Letters of Credit. Letters of Credit shall be issued in support of obligations of the Borrower or any Subsidiary, contingent or otherwise, and to finance the working capital and business needs of the Borrower or any Subsidiary. All Letters of Credit must expire not later than the Banking Day preceding the Revolving Commitment Ending Date. No standby Letter of Credit may have a term longer than 12 months.

Section 2.10. Agreement to Repay Letter of Credit Drawings. If the Bank has received documents purporting to draw under a Letter of Credit that the Bank believes conform to the requirements of such Letter of Credit, or if the Bank has decided that it will comply with the Borrower’s written or oral request or authorization to pay a drawing on any Letter of Credit that the Bank does not believe conforms to the requirements of the Letter of Credit, it will notify the Borrower of that fact. The Borrower shall reimburse the Bank by 10:00 A.M. (Pacific time) on the day on which such drawing is to be paid in Immediately Available Funds in an amount equal to the amount of such drawing. Any amount by which the Borrower has failed to reimburse the Bank for the full amount of such drawing by 10:00 A.M. (Pacific time) on the date on which the Bank in its notice indicated that it would pay such drawing, until reimbursed by the Borrower from the proceeds of Revolving Loans pursuant to Section 2.13 or out of funds available in the Holding Account, is an “Unpaid Drawing.” Unpaid Drawings shall bear interest at a rate equal to the sum of (a) the Applicable Margin for Prime Rate Loans plus (b) the Prime Rate plus (c) 5.0% per annum. Such interest shall be payable on demand.

Section 2.11. Obligations Absolute. The Borrower’s obligation under Section 2.10 to repay the Bank for any amount drawn on any Letter of Credit and for any Revolving Loans made under Section 2.13 to cover Unpaid Drawings shall be absolute, unconditional, and irrevocable, shall continue so long as any Letter of Credit is outstanding notwithstanding any termination of this Agreement, and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, under all circumstances whatsoever, including without limitation the following circumstances:

(a) Any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit;

(b) The existence of any claim, setoff, defense, or other right that the Borrower has or claims at any time against any beneficiary, transferee, or holder of any Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such beneficiary, transferee, or holder is acting), the Bank, or any other Person, whether in connection with a Letter of Credit, this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby, or any unrelated transaction; or

(c) Any statement or any other document presented under any Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid, or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect whatsoever.

Neither the Bank nor its officers, directors, or employees shall be liable or responsible for, and the obligations of the Borrower to the Bank shall not be impaired by:

(a) The use made of any Letter of Credit or any acts or omissions of any beneficiary, transferee, or holder thereof in connection therewith;

(b) The validity, sufficiency, or genuineness of documents, or of any endorsements thereon, even if such documents or endorsements in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, fraudulent, or forged;

(c) The Bank’s acceptance of documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary; or

(d) Any other action of the Bank in making or failing to make payment under any Letter of Credit if in good faith and in conformity with U.S. or foreign laws, regulations, or customs applicable thereto.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower shall have a claim against the Bank, and the Bank shall be liable to the Borrower, to the extent, but only to the extent, of any direct, as opposed to consequential, damages suffered by the Borrower that the Borrower proves were caused by the Bank’s willful misconduct or gross negligence in determining whether documents presented under any Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof.

Section 2.12. Outstanding Letters of Credit Following Event of Default. Upon a Default or Event of Default, the Borrower shall either (a) replace all outstanding Letters of Credit with letters of credit issued by another issuer acceptable to the respective beneficiaries of such Letters of Credit (whereupon such Letters of Credit shall be canceled), or (b) provide the Bank, as security for all outstanding Letters of Credit, with a cash collateral deposit in an amount that equals at least 110% of the Letter of Credit Outstandings at all times during the continuance of such Default or Event of Default. The Borrower hereby grants to the Bank a security interest in such cash collateral to secure all Obligations. The Bank will apply such cash collateral to the payment of drafts drawn under such Letters of Credit and customary costs and expenses charged or incurred by the Bank in connection therewith, and apply the unused portion thereof after all such Letters of Credit have expired or been fully drawn upon, if any, to repay other Obligations. After all such Letters of Credit have expired or been fully drawn upon, all Obligations have been paid in full in cash, and the Bank’s obligations hereunder have terminated, the balance, if any, of such cash collateral shall be returned to the Borrower. The Borrower shall execute and deliver to the Bank such further documents and instruments as the Bank requests to evidence the creation and perfection of the security interest in such cash collateral account.

Part C—General

Section 2.13. Revolving Loans to Cover Unpaid Drawings. Whenever any Unpaid Drawing exists and there are not then funds in the Holding Account to cover the same, the Bank is authorized (and the Borrower does here so authorize the Bank) to, and shall, make a Revolving Loan (as a Prime Rate Loan) to the Borrower in an amount equal to the amount of the Unpaid Drawing. The Bank shall apply the proceeds of such Revolving Loan directly to reimburse itself for such Unpaid Drawing. If at the time the Bank makes a Revolving Loan pursuant to this section, the applicable conditions precedent specified in Article III have not been satisfied, the Borrower shall pay to the Bank interest on the funds so advanced at a floating rate per annum equal to the sum of (a) the Applicable Margin for Prime Rate Loans plus (b) the Prime Rate plus (c) 5.0% per annum.

Section 2.14. Facility Fees and Letter of Credit Fees. Upon the Effective Date, the Borrower shall pay to the Bank a one-time facility fee in connection with the Term Loan in the amount of $25,000. For each Letter of Credit issued, the Borrower shall pay to the Bank a fee (a “Letter of Credit Fee”) equal to (a) in the case of each standby Letter of Credit, at all times such Letter of Credit is outstanding, an amount determined by multiplying 1.8% by the original face amount of each such Letter of Credit determined on a per annum basis, payable on the date such Letter of Credit is issued, and (b) in the case of commercial Letters of Credit, the Bank’s

standard fees as set forth on the Bank’s Commercial Letter of Credit Fee Schedule, as updated from time to time. In addition to the Letter of Credit Fees, the Borrower shall pay to the Bank, on demand, all issuance, amendment, drawing, and other fees regularly charged by the Bank to its letter of credit customers and all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses the Bank incurs in connection with the issuance, amendment, administration, or payment of any Letter of Credit.

Section 2.15. Computation. Letter of Credit Fees and interest on Obligations shall be computed on the basis of actual days elapsed (or, in the case of Letter of Credit Fees that are paid in advance, actual days to elapse) and a year of 360 days.

Section 2.16. Payments. Payments and prepayments of principal of, and interest on, the Notes and all fees, expenses, and other obligations under this Agreement payable to the Bank shall be made without setoff or counterclaim in Immediately Available Funds not later than 1:00 P.M. (Pacific time) on the dates called for under the Loan Documents to the Bank at its main office in Newport Beach, California. Funds received after such time shall be deemed to have been received on the next Banking Day. Whenever any payment to be made under the Loan Documents is stated to be due on a day that is not a Banking Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Banking Day, and such extension of time, in the case of a payment of principal, shall be included in the computation of any interest on such principal payment; provided, however, that if such extension would cause payment of interest on or principal of a LIBOR Rate Loan to be made in the next following calendar month, such payment shall be made on the next preceding Banking Day.

Section 2.17. Revolving Commitment Ending Date. The “Revolving Commitment Ending Date” is November 1, 2012.

Section 2.18. Use of Proceeds.

(a) The Revolving Loans shall be used to (a) provide financing for the Borrower’s general corporate purposes, (b) support the issuance of commercial and standby Letters of Credit, and (c) provide temporary bridge financing for certain Permitted Acquisitions, in each case in a manner not in conflict with any of the Borrower’s covenants in this Agreement.

(b) The Term Loan shall be used to finance the Acquisition (Enson) and to pay related transaction costs, fees, and expenses.

Section 2.19. Taxes.

(a) Any and all payments by the Borrower under the Loan Documents shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect thereto, excluding, in the case of the Bank, taxes imposed on its overall net income and franchise taxes imposed on it in lieu of net income taxes (all such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings, and liabilities in respect of payments under the Loan Documents being hereinafter referred to as “Taxes”).

(b) The Borrower agrees to pay any present or future stamp or documentary taxes or any other excise or property taxes, charges, or similar levies that arise from any payment made under the

Loan Documents or from the execution, delivery, or registration of, performing under, or otherwise with respect to the Loan Documents (hereinafter referred to as “Other Taxes”).

(c) The Borrower shall indemnify the Bank for the full amount of Taxes or Other Taxes imposed on or paid by the Bank and any penalties, interest, and expenses with respect thereto. Payments on this indemnification shall be made within 30 days from the date the Bank makes written demand therefor.

(d) Within 30 days after the date of any payment of Taxes, the Borrower shall furnish to the Bank, at its address referred to on the signature page hereof, a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof. In the case of any payment under the Loan Documents by or on behalf of the Borrower through an account or branch outside the United States or by or on behalf of the Borrower by a payor that is not a United States person, if the Borrower determines that no Taxes are payable in respect thereof, the Borrower shall furnish or shall cause such payor to furnish to the Bank at such address an opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable to the Bank stating that such payment is exempt from Taxes. For purposes of this subsection (d), the terms “United States” and “United States person” have the meanings specified in § 7701 of the Code.

(e) If the Borrower is required by law or regulation to make any deduction, withholding, or backup withholding of any taxes, levies, imposts, duties, fees, liabilities, or similar charges of the United States of America, any possession or territory of the United States of America (including the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico), or any area subject to the jurisdiction of the United States of America (“U.S. Taxes”) from any payments to the Bank pursuant to any Loan Document in respect of the Obligations payable to the Bank then or thereafter outstanding, the Borrower shall make such withholdings or deductions and pay the full amount withheld or deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law.

Section 2.20. Effect of Existing Credit Agreement. This Agreement amends and replaces in its entirety the Existing Credit Agreement, provided that the obligations of the Borrower incurred under the Existing Credit Agreement shall continue under this Agreement and shall not in any circumstance be terminated, extinguished, or discharged hereby but shall hereafter be governed by the terms of this Agreement. None of the liens created by the Existing Credit Agreement shall be terminated, extinguished, or discharged hereby.

ARTICLE IV.
REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

To induce the Bank to enter into this Agreement, to make the Loans, and to issue Letters of Credit, the Borrower represents and warrants to the Bank:

Section 4.1. Organization, Standing, Etc. The Borrower is a corporation duly incorporated, validly existing, and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware and has all requisite power and authority to carry on its business as now conducted, to enter into this

Agreement, to issue the Notes, and to perform its obligations under the Transaction Documents. Each Restricted Subsidiary is duly organized, validly existing, and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization and has all requisite power and authority to carry on its business as now conducted. Each of the Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries (a) holds all certificates of authority, licenses, and permits necessary to carry on its business as presently conducted in each jurisdiction in which it is carrying on such business, except where the failure to hold such certificates, licenses, or permits could not constitute a Material Adverse Occurrence and (b) is duly qualified and in good standing as a foreign corporation (or other organization) in each jurisdiction in which the character of the properties it owns, leases, or operates or the business it conducts makes such qualification necessary and the failure so to qualify could permanently preclude the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary from enforcing its rights with respect to any assets or expose the Borrower to any Material Adverse Occurrence.

Section 4.2. Authorization and Validity. The execution, delivery, and performance by the Borrower of the Transaction Documents have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action by the Borrower. This Agreement constitutes, and the Notes when executed will constitute, the legal, valid, and binding obligation of the Borrower, enforceable against the Borrower in accordance with its terms, subject to limitations as to enforceability that might result from bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium, and other similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject to limitations on the availability of equitable remedies.

Section 4.3. No Conflict; No Default. The Borrower’s execution, delivery, and performance of the Transaction Documents will not (a) violate any provision of any law, statute, rule, or regulation or any order, writ, judgment, injunction, decree, determination, or award of any court, governmental agency, or arbitrator presently in effect applying to the Borrower, (b) violate or contravene any provision of the Borrower’s Restated Certificate of Incorporation or Amended and Restated Bylaws, or (c) result in a breach of or constitute a default under any indenture, loan or credit agreement, or other agreement, lease, or instrument to which the Borrower is a party or by which it or any of its properties may be bound or result in the creation of any Lien thereunder. Neither the Borrower nor any Restricted Subsidiary is in default under or in violation of any such law, statute, rule, regulation, order, writ, judgment, injunction, decree, determination, or award or any such indenture, loan or credit agreement, or other agreement, lease, or instrument in any case in which the consequences of such default or violation could constitute a Material Adverse Occurrence.

Section 4.4. Government Consent. No order, consent, approval, license, authorization, or validation of, filing, recording, or registration with, or exemption by any governmental or public body or authority is required on the Borrower’s part to authorize, or is required in connection with, the execution, delivery, and performance of, or the legality, validity, binding effect, or enforceability of, the Transaction Documents.

Section 4.5. Financial Statements and Condition.

(a) The audited consolidated financial statements of the Target as at its fiscal years ended March 31, 2008, March 31, 2009, and March 31, 2010, and the unaudited financial statements of the Target for the five months ending August 31, 2010, copies of each of which have been delivered to the Bank, were prepared in accordance with Hong Kong financial reporting standards on a consistent basis

(except for, as to the interim statements, the absence of footnotes and normal year-end audit adjustments) and fairly present the consolidated financial condition of the Target as at such dates and the results of its operations and changes in financial position for the respective periods then ended. As of the dates of such financial statements, the Target did not have any material obligation, contingent liability, liability for taxes, or long-term lease obligation that is not reflected in such financial statements or in the notes thereto. Since March 31, 2010, there has been no Material Adverse Occurrence with respect to the Target. On and after the Effective Date, there has been no Material Adverse Occurrence with respect to the Borrower.

(b) The consolidated financial projections (including an operating budget and a cash flow budget) of the Borrower delivered pursuant to Section 3.1(a)(xi) were prepared by the Borrower in good faith utilizing assumptions believed by the Borrower to be reasonable at the time. The accompanying unaudited consolidated pro forma balance sheet of the Borrower as at the Effective Date, adjusted to give effect to the consummation of the Acquisition (Enson), the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents, and the financings contemplated hereby as if such transactions had occurred on such date (excluding the impact of the revaluation of the balance sheet in accordance with FASB 141 “Business Combinations”), is consistent in all material respects with such projections.

Section 4.6. Litigation. Other than as set forth in the Borrower’s financial statements delivered pursuant to Section 4.5, there are no actions, suits, or proceedings pending or, to the Borrower’s knowledge, threatened against or affecting the Borrower, any Subsidiary, or any of their properties before any court or arbitrator or any governmental department, board, agency, or other instrumentality that, if determined adversely to the Borrower or any Subsidiary, could constitute a Material Adverse Occurrence, and there are no unsatisfied judgments against the Borrower or any Subsidiary the satisfaction or payment of which could constitute a Material Adverse Occurrence.

Section 4.7. Environmental, Health and Safety Laws. There exists no violation by the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary of any applicable federal, state, or local law, rule or regulation, or order of any government, governmental department, board, agency, or other instrumentality relating to environmental, pollution, health, or safety matters that has imposed, will impose, or threatens to impose a material liability on the Borrower or a Restricted Subsidiary or that has required or would require a material expenditure by the Borrower or a Restricted Subsidiary to cure. Neither the Borrower nor any Restricted Subsidiary has received any notice to the effect that any part of its operations or properties is not in material compliance with any such law, rule, regulation, or order or notice that it or its property is the subject of any governmental investigation evaluating whether any remedial action is needed to respond to any release of any toxic or hazardous waste or substance into the environment, which non-compliance or remedial action could constitute a Material Adverse Occurrence. Except as set out on Schedule 4.7, the Borrower has no knowledge that it, its property, any Restricted Subsidiary, or any Restricted Subsidiary’s property will become subject to environmental laws or regulations during the term of this Agreement, compliance with which could require Capital Expenditures that could constitute a Material Adverse Occurrence.

Section 4.8. ERISA. Each Plan is in substantial compliance with all applicable requirements of ERISA and the Code and with all material applicable rulings and regulations issued under the provisions of ERISA and the Code setting forth those requirements. No

Reportable Event has occurred and is continuing with respect to any Plan. All of the minimum funding standards applicable to such Plans have been satisfied and there exists no event or condition that would reasonably be expected to result in the institution of proceedings to terminate any Plan under § 4042 of ERISA. With respect to each Plan subject to Title IV of ERISA, as of the most recent valuation date for such Plan, the present value (determined on the basis of reasonable assumptions employed by the independent actuary for such Plan and previously furnished in writing to the Bank) of such Plan’s projected benefit obligations did not exceed the fair market value of such Plan’s assets.

Section 4.9. Federal Reserve Regulations. Neither the Borrower nor any Subsidiary is engaged principally or as one of its important activities in the business of extending credit for the purpose of purchasing or carrying margin stock (as defined in Regulation U of the Board). The value of all margin stock owned by the Borrower does not constitute more than 25% of the value of the assets of the Borrower.

Section 4.10. Title to Property; Leases; Liens; Subordination. Each of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries has (a) good and marketable title to its real properties and (b) good and sufficient title to, or valid, subsisting, and enforceable leasehold interest in, its other material properties, including all real properties and other properties and assets referred to as owned by the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in the most recent financial statement referred to in Section 5.1 (other than property disposed of since the date of such financial statements in the ordinary course of business). None of such properties is subject to a Lien, except as allowed under Section 6.12. The Borrower has not subordinated any of its rights under any obligation owing to it to the rights of any other person.

Section 4.11. Taxes. Each of the Borrower and the Subsidiaries has filed all federal, state, and local tax returns required to be filed and has paid or made provision for the payment of all taxes due and payable pursuant to such returns and pursuant to any assessments made against it or any of its property and all other taxes, fees, and other charges imposed on it or any of its property by any governmental authority (other than taxes, fees, or charges the amount or validity of which is currently being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and with respect to which reserves in accordance with GAAP have been provided on the books of the Borrower). No tax Liens have been filed and no material claims are being asserted with respect to any such taxes, fees, or charges. The charges, accruals, and reserves on the books of the Borrower in respect of taxes and other governmental charges are adequate, and the Borrower knows of no proposed material tax assessment against it or any Subsidiary or any basis therefor.

Section 4.12. Trademarks; Patents. Each of the Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries possesses or has the right to use all of the patents, trademarks, trade names, service marks, and copyrights, and applications therefor, and all technology, know-how, processes, methods, and designs used in or necessary for the conduct of its business, without known conflict with the rights of others.

Section 4.13. Burdensome Restrictions. Neither the Borrower nor any Restricted Subsidiary is a party to or otherwise bound by any indenture, loan or credit agreement, or lease or other agreement or instrument or subject to any charter, corporate, or partnership restriction that could constitute a Material Adverse Occurrence.

Section 4.14. Force Majeure. Since the date of the most recent financial statement referred to in Section 5.1, the business, properties, and other assets of the Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries have not been materially and adversely affected in any way as the result of any fire or other casualty, strike, lockout, or other labor trouble, embargo, sabotage, confiscation, condemnation, riot, civil disturbance, activity of armed forces, or act of God.

Section 4.15. Investment Company Act. Neither the Borrower nor any Subsidiary is an “investment company” or a company “controlled” by an investment company within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

Section 4.16. Retirement Benefits. Except as required under § 4980B of the Code, § 601 of ERISA, or applicable state law, the Borrower is not obligated to provide post-retirement medical or insurance benefits with respect to employees or former employees.

Section 4.17. Full Disclosure. Subject to the following sentence, neither the financial statements referred to in Section 5.1 nor any other certificate, written statement, exhibit, or report furnished by or on behalf of the Borrower in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits any material fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading. Certificates or statements furnished by or on behalf of the Borrower to the Bank consisting of projections or forecasts of future results or events have been prepared in good faith and based on good faith estimates and assumptions of the management of the Borrower, and the Borrower has no reason to believe that such projections or forecasts are not reasonable.

Section 4.18. Subsidiaries. Schedule 4.18 sets forth as of the date of this Agreement (after giving effect to the Acquisition (Enson)) a list of all Subsidiaries, the number and percentage of the shares of each class of Equity Interests owned beneficially or of record by the Borrower or any Subsidiary therein and the jurisdiction of incorporation of each Subsidiary, and designates whether such Subsidiary is a Restricted Subsidiary.

Section 4.19. Labor Matters. There are no pending or threatened strikes, lockouts, or slowdowns against the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary. Neither the Borrower nor any Restricted Subsidiary has been or is in violation in any material respect of the Fair Labor Standards Act or any other applicable federal, state, local, or foreign law dealing with such matters. All payments due from the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary on account of wages and employee health and welfare insurance and other benefits (in each case, except for de minimis amounts) have been paid or accrued as a liability on the books of the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary. The consummation of the transactions contemplated under the Transaction Documents will not give rise to any right of termination or right of renegotiation on the part of any union under any collective bargaining agreement to which the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary is bound.

Section 4.20. Solvency. As of the Effective Date, after the making of any Loan and giving effect thereto and after giving effect to the Acquisition (Enson), (a) the fair value of the assets of the Borrower will exceed its debts and liabilities, subordinated, contingent, or otherwise; (b) the present fair saleable value of the property of the Borrower will be greater than the amount that will be required to pay the probable liability of its debts and other liabilities,

subordinated, contingent, or otherwise, as such debts and other liabilities become absolute and matured; (c) the Borrower will be able to pay its debts and liabilities, subordinated, contingent, or otherwise, as such debts and liabilities become absolute and matured; and (d) the Borrower will not have unreasonably small capital with which to conduct the business in which it is engaged as such business is proposed to be conducted following the Effective Date.

Section 4.21. Representations and Warranties of Seller. All representations and warranties of the Borrower, and, as of the date hereof, to the knowledge of the Borrower, the Seller (Enson), in the Acquisition Agreement (Enson) are true and correct in all material respects.

such setoff or enforcement right, it shall notify the Borrower of its exercise of such setoff or enforcement right; provided, however, that the failure of the Bank to provide such notice shall not affect the validity of the exercise of such setoff or enforcement rights.

The Borrower agrees that if amounts outstanding under this Agreement, the Notes, or the Loan Documents are due and unpaid, or have been declared or have become due and payable upon an Event of Default, each Participant shall be deemed to have, to the extent permitted by applicable law, the right of setoff in respect of its participating interest in amounts owing under this Agreement and the Notes and other Loan Documents to the same extent as if the amount of its participating interest were owing directly to it as a Bank under this Agreement, a Note, or any other Loan Document.

The Borrower and each assignee or Participant of the Bank (by accepting an assignment or a participation under Section 8.6 hereof) agrees and acknowledges that the Bank’s Counsel does not represent it, and no attorney-client relationship exists between it and the Bank’s Counsel, in connection with any of the matters described in the preceding sentence.

Section 8.10. Judicial Reference Agreement.

(a) Any and all disputes, claims, and controversies arising out of the Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated thereby (including, but not limited to, actions arising in contract or tort and any claims by the Borrower against the Bank related in any way to the Loans) (individually, a “Dispute”) that are brought before a forum in which pre-dispute waivers of the right to trial by jury are invalid under applicable law shall be subject to the terms of this Section 8.10.

(b) Any and all Disputes shall be heard by a referee and resolved by judicial reference pursuant to California Code of Civil Procedure Sections 638 et seq. The referee shall be a retired California state court judge or an attorney licensed to practice law in the State of California with at least 10 years’ experience practicing commercial law. Neither the Borrower nor the Bank shall seek to appoint a referee that may be disqualified pursuant to California Code of Civil Procedure Section 641 or 641.2 without the prior written consent of the other party. If the Bank and the Borrower are unable to

agree upon a referee within 10 calendar days after one party serves a written notice of intent for judicial reference upon the other party, then the referee will be selected by the court in accordance with California Code of Civil Procedure Section 640(b).

(c) The referee shall render a written statement of decision and shall conduct the proceedings in accordance with the California Code of Civil Procedure, the Rules of Court, and California Evidence Code, except as otherwise specifically agreed by the parties and approved by the referee.

The decision of the referee shall be entered as a judgment in the court in accordance with the provisions of California Code of Civil Procedure Sections 644 and 645. The decision of the referee shall be appealable to the same extent and in the same manner that such decision would be appealable if rendered by a judge of the superior court.

(d) Nothing in this Section 8.10 shall be deemed to apply to or limit the right of the Bank (i) to exercise self-help remedies such as (but not limited to) setoff, (ii) to foreclose judicially or nonjudicially against any real or personal property collateral, or to exercise judicial or nonjudicial power of sale rights, (iii) to obtain from a court provisional or ancillary remedies (including, but not limited to, injunctive relief, a writ of possession, prejudgment attachment, a protective order, or the appointment of a receiver), or (iv) to pursue rights against any party in a third-party proceeding in any action brought against the Bank (including actions in bankruptcy court). The Bank may exercise the rights set forth in the foregoing clauses (i) through (iv), inclusive, before, during, or after the pendency of any judicial reference proceeding. Neither the exercise of self-help remedies nor the institution or maintenance of an action for foreclosure or provisional or ancillary remedies or the opposition to any such provisional remedies shall constitute a waiver of the right of any party, including, but not limited to, the claimant in any such action, to require submission to judicial reference of the merits of the Dispute occasioning resort to such remedies. No provision in the Loan Documents regarding submission to jurisdiction and/or venue in any court is intended or shall be construed to be in derogation of the provisions in any Loan Document for judicial reference of any of Dispute.

(e) If a Dispute includes multiple claims, some of which are found not subject to this Section 8.10, the Parties shall stay the proceedings of such Dispute or the part or parts thereof not subject to this Section 8.10 until all other Disputes or parts thereof are resolved in accordance with this Section 8.10. If there are Disputes by or against multiple parties, some of which are not subject to this Section 8.10, the Borrower and the Bank shall sever the Disputes subject to this Section 8.10 and resolve them in accordance with this Section 8.10. During the pendency of any Dispute that is submitted to judicial reference in accordance with this Agreement, each of the parties to such Dispute shall bear equal shares of the fees charged and costs incurred by the referee in performing the services described in this Section 8.10. The compensation of the referee shall not exceed the prevailing rate for like services. The prevailing party shall be entitled to reasonable court costs and legal fees, including customary attorney fees, expert witness fees, paralegal fees, the fees of the referee, a reimbursement of fees and costs paid during the pendency of a dispute in accordance with this Section 8.10(d), and other reasonable costs and disbursements charged to the party by its counsel, in such amount as the Referee determines.

(f) In the event of any challenge to the legality or enforceability of this Section 8.10, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover the costs and expenses from the non-prevailing party, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred by it in connection with such challenge.

(g) THIS SECTION 8.10 CONSTITUTES A “REFERENCE AGREEMENT” BETWEEN THE BORROWER AND THE BANK WITHIN THE MEANING OF AND FOR PURPOSES OF CALIFORNIA CODE OF CIVIL PROCEDURE SECTION 638.

Section 8.11. Survival of Agreement. All representations, warranties, covenants, and agreements made by the Borrower herein, in the other Transaction Documents, and in the certificates or other instruments prepared or delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document shall be deemed to have been relied upon by the Bank and shall survive the making of the Loans by the Bank and the execution and delivery to the Bank by the Borrower of the Notes, regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Bank, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as any Obligation is outstanding and unpaid and so long as the Revolving Commitment has not been terminated; provided, however, that the obligations of the Borrower under Sections 8.3, 8.6, and 8.12 shall survive payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of the Revolving Commitment.

Section 8.12. Indemnification. The Borrower hereby agrees to defend, protect, indemnify, and hold harmless the Bank and its Affiliates and the directors, officers, employees, attorneys, and agents of the Bank and its Affiliates (collectively, the “Indemnitees”) from and against any and all claims, actions, damages, liabilities, judgments, costs, and expenses (including all reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel that may be incurred in the investigation or defense of any matter) imposed upon, incurred by, or asserted against any Indemnitee, whether direct, indirect, or consequential and whether based on any federal, state, local, or foreign laws or regulations (including securities laws, environmental laws, commercial laws, and regulations), under common law or on equitable cause, or on contract or otherwise:

(a) by reason of, relating to, or in connection with the execution, delivery, performance, or enforcement of any Transaction Document, any commitments relating thereto, or any transaction contemplated by any Transaction Document; or

(b) by reason of, relating to, or in connection with any credit extended or used under the Loan Documents or any act done or omitted by any Person, or the exercise of any rights or remedies thereunder;

provided, however, that the Borrower shall not be liable to any Indemnitee for any portion of such claims, damages, liabilities, and expenses resulting from such Indemnitee’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. In the event this indemnity is unenforceable as a matter of law as to a particular matter or consequence referred to herein, it shall be enforceable to the full extent permitted by law.

This indemnification applies, without limitation, to any act, omission, event, or circumstance existing or occurring on or prior to the later of the Termination Date or the date of payment in full of the Obligations, including specifically Obligations arising under clause (b) of this section. The indemnification provisions set forth above shall be in addition to any liability the Borrower otherwise has. Without prejudice to the survival of any other obligation of the Borrower hereunder, the indemnities and obligations of the Borrower in this section shall survive the payment in full of the other Obligations.
