Section 2.1 The Letter of Credit Commitment. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, (a) from the Closing Date through and including the Maturity Date, the Bank shall issue Letters of Credit as the applicable Borrower may from time to time request and (b) from the Closing Date through and including the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, the Bank shall take such Letter of Credit Actions (other than issuing Letters of Credit) as such Borrower may from time to time request; provided, however, that the Letter of Credit Usage shall not exceed $30,000,000 at any time. Unless consented to by the Bank, no Letter of Credit may have an expiration date more than one hundred fifty (150) days after the date of its issuance or last renewal; provided, however, that no Letter of Credit shall have an expiration date after the Letter of Credit Expiration Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Letter of Credit remains outstanding after the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, the applicable Borrower shall, not later than the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, deposit cash in an amount equal to such Letter of Credit Usage in a Letter of Credit Cash Collateral Account. The Bank shall have no obligation to take any Letter of Credit Action if (i) any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain the Bank from issuing such Letter of Credit, or any law, rule or regulation applicable to the Bank or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over the Bank shall prohibit, or request that the Bank refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon the Bank with respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital requirement (for which the Bank is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the Closing Date, or shall impose upon the Bank any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable on the Closing Date and which the Bank in good ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ material to it; or (ii) the issuance of such Letter of Credit would violate one or more policies of the Bank applicable to letters of credit generally.

Section 2.2 Requesting Letter of Credit Actions. The applicable Borrower may irrevocably request a Letter of Credit Action in a Minimum Amount therefor in Dollars by delivering a Letter of Credit Application therefor to the Bank by notice delivered in accordance with Section 9.13 or via the Bank’s electronic trade banking system (a) with respect to the initial issuance of any Letter of Credit, not later than three (3) Business Days prior to the effective date of such issuance and (b) with respect to any Letter of Credit Action not included in clause (a) preceding, by 10:00 a.m. (San Francisco, California time) on the day of the requested Letter of Credit Action. Each request for any Letter of Credit Action shall be in a form acceptable to the Bank in its sole discretion, including, without limitation, the current form of Letter of Credit Application in use by the Bank. The Bank shall, upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in Article 7, effect such Letter of Credit Action.

Section 2.3 Reimbursement of Payments Under Letters of Credit. Promptly upon receiving notice of any drawing under a Letter of Credit, the Bank shall notify the applicable Borrower. Within one (1) Business Day of such notification from the Bank to the applicable Borrower, such Borrower shall reimburse the Bank for any payment that the Bank makes under a Letter of Credit. The Bank may, but shall not be obligated to, withdraw the amount of any such payment which is not made when due from any account of the applicable Borrower maintained with the Bank. Notwithstanding that a Letter of Credit issued or outstanding hereunder is in support of any obligations of, or is for the account of, a Subsidiary of the Parent, the Parent shall be obligated to reimburse the Bank hereunder for any and all drawings under such Letter of Credit. The Parent hereby acknowledges that the issuance of Letters of Credit for the account of its Subsidiaries inures to the benefit of the Parent, and that the Parent’s business derives substantial benefits from the businesses of such Subsidiaries.

Section 2.4 Nature of Bank’s Funding; Interest on Unreimbursed Drawings. If the applicable Borrower fails to reimburse the Bank for a drawing under a Letter of Credit, the funding by the Bank shall be deemed to be a loan by the Bank to such Borrower. Any amount funded by the Bank hereunder shall be payable by the applicable Borrower upon demand of the Bank, and shall bear interest, from the date of such drawing through but excluding the date that payment is made, at a rate per annum equal to the Default Rate.

Section 2.5 Obligations Absolute. The obligation of the applicable Borrower to pay to the Bank the amount of any payment made by the Bank under any Letter of Credit shall be absolute, unconditional, and irrevocable. Without limiting the foregoing, the applicable Borrower’s obligation shall not be affected by any of the following circumstances:

(a) any lack of validity or enforceability of such Letter of Credit, this Agreement, or any other agreement or instrument relating hereto or thereto;

(b) any amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from such Letter of Credit, this Agreement, or any other agreement or instrument relating hereto or thereto;

(c) the existence of any claim, setoff, defense, or other rights which such Borrower or any Subsidiary of such Borrower may have at any time against the Bank, any beneficiary of such Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such beneficiary may be acting) or any other Person, whether in connection with such Letter of Credit, this Agreement, or any other agreement or instrument relating hereto or thereto, or any unrelated transactions;

(d) any demand, statement, or any other document presented under such 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 so long as any such document appeared on its face to comply with the terms of the Letter of Credit;

(e) payment by the Bank in good faith under such Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or any accompanying document which does not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; or any payment made by the Bank under such Letter of Credit to any Person purporting to be a trustee in bankruptcy, debtor-in-possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors, liquidator, receiver, or other representative of or successor to any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit, including any arising in connection with any proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code or other applicable laws;

(f) the existence, character, quality, quantity, condition, packing, value, or delivery of any property purported to be represented by documents presented in connection with such Letter of Credit or for any difference between any such property and the character, quality, quantity, condition, or value of such property as described in such documents;

(g) the time, place, manner, order, or contents of shipments or deliveries of property as described in documents presented in connection with such Letter of Credit or the existence, nature, and extent of any insurance relative thereto;

(h) the solvency or financial responsibility of any party issuing any documents in connection with such Letter of Credit;

(i) any failure or delay in notice of shipments or arrival of any Property;

(j) any error in the transmission of any message relating to such Letter of Credit not caused by the Bank, or any delay or interruption in any such message;

(k) any error, neglect, or default of any correspondent of the Bank in connection with such Letter of Credit;

(l) any consequence arising from acts of God, wars, insurrections, civil unrest, disturbances, labor disputes, emergency conditions, or other causes beyond the control of the Bank;

(m) so long as the Bank in good faith determines that the document appears on its face to comply with the terms of the Letter of Credit, the form, accuracy, genuineness, or legal effect of any contract or document referred to in any document submitted to the Bank in connection with such Letter of Credit; and

(n) any other circumstances whatsoever where the Bank has acted in good faith.

In addition, the applicable Borrower will examine within three (3) Business Days a copy of each Letter of Credit and amendments thereto delivered to it and, in the event of any claim of noncompliance with such Borrower’s instructions or other irregularity, such Borrower will immediately notify the Bank in writing. The Borrowers shall be conclusively deemed to have waived any such claim against the Bank and its correspondents unless such notice is given as aforesaid.

Section 2.6 Role of the Bank. The Borrowers agree that, in paying any drawing under a Letter of Credit, the Bank shall not have any responsibility to obtain any document (other than any sight draft, certificates, and documents expressly required by the Letter of Credit) or to ascertain or inquire as

to the validity or accuracy of any such document or the authority of the Person executing or delivering any such document. Each Borrower hereby assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee with respect to its use of any Letter of Credit; provided, however, that this assumption is not intended to, and shall not, preclude such Borrower’s pursuing such rights and remedies as it may have against the beneficiary or transferee at law or under any other agreement. No Bank-Related Person, nor any of the respective correspondents, participants, or assignees of the Bank, shall be liable or responsible for any of the matters described in Section 2.5. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, the Bank may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, and the Bank shall not be responsible for the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign a Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason. The Bank may send a Letter of Credit or conduct any communication to or from the beneficiary via the Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication (“SWIFT”) message or overnight courier, or any other commercially reasonable means of communicating with a beneficiary.

Section 2.7 Applicability of UCP. Subject to applicable law, unless otherwise expressly agreed by the Bank and the applicable Borrower when a Letter of Credit is issued, performance under Letters of Credit by the Bank, its correspondents, and beneficiaries will be governed by the rules of the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits (the “UCP”), as published in its most recent version by the International Chamber of Commerce (the “ICC”) on the date any commercial Letter of Credit is issued, and including the ICC decision published by the Commission on Banking Technique and Practice on April 6, 1998 regarding the European single currency (euro). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Bank shall not be responsible to the Borrowers for, and the Bank’s rights and remedies against the Borrowers shall not be impaired by, any action or inaction of the Bank required or permitted under any law, order, or practice that is required or permitted to be applied to any Letter of Credit or this Agreement, including the law or any order of a jurisdiction where the Bank or the beneficiary is located, the practice stated in the UCP or in the decisions, opinions, practice statements, or official commentary of the ICC Banking Commission, the Bankers Association for Finance and Trade - International Financial Services Association (BAFT-IFSA), or the Institute of International Banking Law & Practice, whether or not any Letter of Credit chooses such law or practice.

Section 2.8 Letter of Credit Fees and Expenses. The applicable Borrower shall pay directly to the Bank for its sole account its customary documentary and processing charges in accordance with past practice, or as otherwise mutually agreed by the Borrowers and the Bank. Such fees and charges are nonrefundable.

The Borrowers shall have the right to terminate this Agreement, without premium or penalty, at any time prior to the Letter of Credit Expiration Date by giving the Bank written notice of such termination not less than thirty (30) days prior to such date of termination, provided that each applicable Borrower makes payment to the Bank of an amount equal to the aggregate amount of all outstanding Letter of Credit Usage attributable to such Borrower to be held in a Letter of Credit Cash Collateral Account.

Any acknowledgment, consent, direction, certification or other action which might otherwise be valid or effective only if given or taken by all Borrowers, or by each Borrower acting singly, shall be valid and effective if given or taken only by the Parent, whether or not ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇-Sonoma Singapore joins therein.

(j) the occurrence of a Change of Control.

Section 8.2 Remedies. If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the Bank may do any one or more of the following:

(a) Acceleration. By notice to the Borrowers, declare all outstanding amounts payable by the Borrowers under the Transaction Documents immediately due and payable, and the same shall thereupon become immediately due and payable, without further notice, demand, presentment, notice of dishonor, notice of acceleration, notice of intent to accelerate, protest, or other formalities of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Borrowers except as where required by the specific terms of this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents;

(b) Refusal of Requests for Letter of Credit Action. The Bank may, without notice to the Borrowers or any other Person, refuse any request by a Borrower for any Letter of Credit Action;

(d) Rights. Exercise any and all rights and remedies afforded by the laws of the state of California, or any other jurisdiction governing any of the Transaction Documents, by equity, or otherwise; and

(e) Cash Collateral. The Bank may demand immediate payment by each Borrower of an amount equal to the aggregate amount of all outstanding Letter of Credit Usage attributable to such Borrower to be held in a Letter of Credit Cash Collateral Account, and the Borrowers will immediately comply with such demand;

provided, however, that, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default under Section 8.1(d) or Section 8.1(e) with respect to any Borrower or any Guarantor, the obligation of the Bank to take

any Letter of Credit Action shall automatically terminate and all amounts payable by the Borrowers or any other party under the Transaction Documents to the Bank shall thereupon become immediately due and payable, and an amount equal to the aggregate amount of all outstanding Letter of Credit Usage shall be immediately due and payable to the Bank to be held in a Letter of Credit Cash Collateral Account, without notice, demand, presentment, notice of dishonor, notice of acceleration, notice of intent to accelerate, protest, or other formalities of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Borrowers.

Section 8.3 Performance by the Bank. Upon the occurrence of a Default, if any Borrower or any Guarantor shall fail to perform any agreement in accordance with the terms of the Transaction Documents, the Bank may perform or attempt to perform such agreement on behalf of such Borrower or such Guarantor, as applicable. In such event, at the request of the Bank, the applicable Borrower shall promptly pay any amount expended by the Bank in connection with such performance or attempted performance, to the Bank at the Principal Office together with interest thereon at the Default Rate from and including the date of such expenditure to but excluding the date such expenditure is paid in full. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is expressly agreed that the Bank shall not have any liability or responsibility for the performance of any obligation of any Borrower or any Guarantor under any Transaction Document.

Section 8.4 Set-off. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Bank is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, without notice to the Borrowers or any other Person (any such notice being hereby expressly waived), to set-off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, but excluding any account established by the Borrowers as a fiduciary for another Person) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by the Bank to or for the credit or the account of the applicable Borrower against any and all of the Obligations of such Borrower now or hereafter existing under any Transaction Document, irrespective of whether or not the Bank shall have made any demand under such Transaction Documents and although the Obligations may be unmatured. The Bank agrees promptly to notify the Borrowers after any such set-off and application, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. The rights and remedies of the Bank hereunder are in addition to other rights and remedies (including, without limitation, other rights of set-off) which the Bank may have.

Section 8.5 Continuance of Default. For purposes of all Transaction Documents, a Default shall be deemed to have continued and exist until the Bank shall have actually received evidence satisfactory to the Bank that such Default shall have been remedied.

ARTICLE 9

MISCELLANEOUS

Section 9.1 Expenses. The Borrowers hereby agree to pay promptly after presentation of supporting documentation, without duplication: (a) all reasonable costs and expenses of the Bank arising in connection with the preparation, negotiation, execution, delivery, and administration of the Transaction Documents and all amendments, waivers, or other modifications to the Transaction Documents, including, without limitation, Attorney Costs of the Bank; (b) all costs and expenses of the Bank in connection with any Default and the enforcement of any Transaction Document or collection of the Obligations, including, without limitation, Attorney Costs of the Bank; (c) all fees, costs, and expenses of the Bank arising in connection with an Event of Default and the enforcement of any Transaction Document or collection of the Obligations during the existence of an Event of Default; (d) all transfer,

stamp, documentary, or other similar taxes, assessments, or charges (including, without limitation, the Taxes and any penalties or interest) levied by any Governmental Authority in respect of any Transaction Document or the transactions contemplated thereby; (e) all reasonable costs, expenses, assessments, and other charges incurred in connection with any filing, registration, recording, or perfection of any security interest or other Lien contemplated by any Transaction Document; and (f) all other reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Bank in connection with any Transaction Document. The Attorney Costs of the Bank that the Borrowers have agreed to pay hereunder include, without limitation, the Attorney Costs of the Bank arising in connection with advice given to the Bank as to its rights and responsibilities hereunder.

Section 9.2 Indemnity by the Borrowers. Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, the Borrowers agree to indemnify, save and hold harmless the Bank and each Bank-Related Person (collectively the “Indemnitees”) from and against: (a) any and all claims, demands, actions, or causes of action that are asserted against any Indemnitee by any Person relating directly or indirectly to a claim, demand, action, or cause of action that such Person asserts or may assert against a Borrower, any of its Affiliates, or any of their respective officers or directors; (b) any and all claims, demands, actions, or causes of action arising out of or relating to, the Transaction Documents, the commitments of the Bank hereunder, the use or contemplated use of any Letter of Credit, or the relationship of the Borrowers and the Bank under this Agreement; (c) any administrative or investigative proceeding by any Governmental Authority arising out of or related to a claim, demand, action, or cause of action described in clause (a) or clause (b) preceding; and (d) any and all liabilities (including liabilities under indemnities), losses, costs, or expenses (including Attorney Costs) that any Indemnitee suffers or incurs as a result of the assertion of any foregoing claim, demand, action, cause of action, or proceeding, or as a result of the preparation of any defense in connection with any foregoing, claim, demand, action, cause of action, or proceeding, in all cases, whether or not arising out of the negligence of an Indemnitee, whether or not an Indemnitee is a party to such claim, demand, action, cause of action, or proceeding (all the foregoing, collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”); provided that no Indemnitee shall be entitled to indemnification for any loss caused by its own gross negligence or willful misconduct or for any loss asserted against it by another Indemnitee that does not involve or has not resulted from (i) an act or omission of an Indemnitee in its capacity as Bank and (ii) an act or omission (or an alleged act or omission) by the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries. The agreements in this Section shall survive repayment of all Obligations.

Section 9.3 Limitation of Liability. Neither the Bank nor any Bank-Related Person shall have any liability with respect to any Borrower or any Guarantor for, and, by the execution of the Transaction Documents to which it is a party, each other party to any Transaction Document, hereby waives, releases, and agrees not to ▇▇▇ any of them upon, any claim for, any special, indirect, incidental, consequential, or punitive damages suffered or incurred by any such Person in connection with, arising out of, or in any way related to any of the Transaction Documents, or any of the transactions contemplated by any of the Transaction Documents.

Section 9.4 No Duty. All attorneys, accountants, appraisers, and other professional Persons and consultants retained by the Bank shall have the right to act exclusively in the interest of the Bank and shall have no duty of disclosure, duty of loyalty, duty of care, or other duty or obligation of any type or nature whatsoever to any Borrower or any Guarantor, any shareholders of any Borrower or any Guarantor, or any other Person.

Section 9.5 No Fiduciary Relationship. The relationship between the Borrowers and the Guarantors on the one hand and the Bank on the other is solely that of debtor and creditor, and the Bank has no fiduciary or other special relationship with any Borrower or any Guarantor, and no term or condition of any of the Transaction Documents shall be construed so as to deem the relationship between the Borrowers and the Guarantors on the one hand and the Bank on the other to be other than that of debtor and creditor.

Section 9.6 Equitable Relief. The Borrowers recognize that in the event a Borrower or any Guarantor fails to pay, perform, observe, or discharge any or all of the Obligations under the Transaction Documents, any remedy at law may prove to be inadequate relief to the Bank. The Borrowers therefore agree that the Bank shall be entitled to temporary and permanent injunctive relief in any such case without the necessity of proving actual damages.

Section 9.7 No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure on the part of the Bank to exercise and no delay in exercising, and no course of dealing with respect to, any right, power, or privilege under any Transaction Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power, or privilege under any Transaction Document preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power, or privilege. The rights and remedies provided for in the Transaction Documents are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights and remedies provided by law.

Section 9.8 Binding Effect; Successors; Participations and Assignments.

(a) This Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which the Borrowers are a party will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrowers, the Bank, and their respective successors, participants and assigns, except that, no Borrower may participate or assign its rights hereunder or thereunder or any interest herein or therein without the prior written consent of the Bank and any such attempted assignment shall be void.

(b) Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, the Bank may at any time create a security interest in, or pledge, all or any portion of its rights under and interest in this Agreement in favor of any Federal Reserve Bank in accordance with Regulation A of the FRB or U.S. Treasury Regulation 31 CFR Section 203.14, and such Federal Reserve Bank may enforce such pledge or security interest in any manner permitted under applicable law.

Section 9.9 Survival. All representations and warranties made by any Borrower or any Guarantor in any Transaction Document or in any document, statement, or certificate furnished in connection with any Transaction Document shall survive the execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents and no investigation by the Bank or any closing shall affect the representations and warranties or the right of the Bank to rely upon them. Without prejudice to the survival of any other obligation of the Borrowers hereunder, the obligations under Section 9.1 and Section 9.2 shall survive termination of this Agreement.

Section 9.10 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with the other Transaction Documents and any letter agreements referred to herein, comprises the complete and integrated agreement of the parties on the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements, written or oral, on the subject matter hereof. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and those of any other Transaction Document, the provisions of this Agreement shall control and govern; provided that the inclusion of supplemental rights or remedies in favor of the Bank in any other Transaction Document shall not be deemed a conflict with this Agreement. Each Transaction Document was drafted with the joint participation of the respective parties thereto and shall be construed neither against nor in favor of any party, but rather in accordance with the fair meaning thereof.

Section 9.11 Amendments and Waivers. Any provision of any Transaction Document may be amended or waived and any consent to any departure by any Borrower therefrom may be granted if, but only if, such amendment, waiver, or consent is in writing and is signed by the Borrowers and the Bank

(any such consent not to be unreasonably withheld). In the event of amendment by the parties to the Credit Agreement to any provisions of the Credit Agreement that have been incorporated herein by reference, such provisions will not be deemed to be amended hereunder without the written consent of the Bank to the amendment of such provisions hereunder unless the Bank and each letter of credit issuer under an Other Reimbursement Agreement consented to such amendment, restatement or other modification in their capacities as lenders under the Credit Agreement.

Section 9.12 Maximum Interest Rate. Notwithstanding anything, to the contrary contained in any Transaction Document, any interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Transaction Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by applicable law (the “Maximum Rate”). If the Bank shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the excessive interest shall be applied to the principal of the Obligations or, if it exceeds the unpaid principal, refunded to the applicable Borrower. In determining, whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received by the Bank exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations.

Section 9.13 Notices. All notices and other communications provided for in any Transaction Document to which a Borrower is a party shall be given or made in writing and telecopied, transmitted by e-mail, mailed by certified mail return receipt requested, or delivered to the intended recipient at the “Address for Notices” specified in Schedule 9.13 to the Disclosure Letter, or, as to any party at such other address as shall be designated by such party in a notice to each other party given in accordance with this Section. Except as otherwise provided in any Transaction Document, all such communications shall be deemed to have been duly given when transmitted by telecopy, subject to telephone confirmation of receipt, transmitted by e-mail, subject to telephone confirmation of receipt, or when personally delivered or, in the case of a mailed notice, three (3) Business Days after being duly deposited in the mail, in each case given or addressed as aforesaid; provided, however, notices to the Bank pursuant to Section 2.2 shall not be effective until received by the Bank. Any agreement of the Bank herein to receive certain notices by telephone or telecopy is solely for the convenience and at the request of a Borrower. The Bank shall be entitled to rely on the authority of any Person purporting to be a Person authorized by a Borrower to give such notice and the Bank shall not have any liability to such Borrower or any other Person on account of any action taken or not taken by the Bank in reliance upon such telephonic or telecopy notice. The obligation of the Borrowers to repay all amounts drawn under Letters of Credit shall not be affected in any way or to any extent by any failure of the Bank to receive written confirmation of any telephonic or telecopy notice or the receipt by the Bank of a confirmation which is at variance with the terms understood by the Bank to be contained in such telephonic or telecopy notice.

Section 9.14 Governing Law; Venue; Service of Process.

(a) THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA APPLICABLE TO AGREEMENTS MADE AND TO BE PERFORMED ENTIRELY WITHIN SUCH STATE; PROVIDED THAT THE BANK SHALL RETAIN ALL RIGHTS ARISING UNDER FEDERAL LAW.

AND IN RESPECT OF ITS PROPERTY, TO THE NON-EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THOSE COURTS. EACH BORROWER AND THE BANK EACH IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION, INCLUDING ANY OBJECTION TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OR BASED ON THE GROUNDS OF FORUM NON CONVENIENS, WHICH IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE BRINGING OF ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN SUCH JURISDICTION IN RESPECT OF ANY TRANSACTION DOCUMENT OR OTHER DOCUMENT RELATED THERETO. EACH BORROWER AND THE BANK EACH AGREE TO ACCEPT JOINDER IN ANY SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN ANY COURT OR JURISDICTION AGAINST THE OTHER PARTY BY ANY BENEFICIARY OF A LETTER OF CREDIT OR BY ANY ADVISING, CONFIRMING, NEGOTIATING, PAYING OR OTHER BANK, OR BY ANY OTHER PERSON OR ENTITY. WITH RESPECT TO ANY LETTER OF CREDIT OR ANY DRAWING UNDER A LETTER OF CREDIT IF THE DEFENDANT IN SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING MAKES A REASONABLE DETERMINATION THAT SUCH JOINDER IS NECESSARY FOR THE JUST RESOLUTION OF SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING. EACH BORROWER AND THE BANK EACH WAIVES PERSONAL SERVICE OF ANY SUMMONS, COMPLAINT, OR OTHER PROCESS, WHICH MAY BE MADE BY ANY OTHER MEANS PERMITTED BY THE LAWS OF ANY SUCH STATE.

Section 9.15 California Judicial Reference. If any action or proceeding is filed in a court of the State of California by or against any party hereto in connection with any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any other Transaction Documents, (a) the parties agree, and hereby agree to advise the applicable court, that the adjudication of any such action or proceeding (and all related claims) shall be made pursuant to California Code of Civil Procedure Section 638 by a referee (who shall be a single active or retired judge) who shall hear and determine all of the issues in such action or proceeding (whether of fact or of law) and report a statement of decision, provided that at the option of any party to such proceeding, any such issues pertaining to a “provisional remedy” as defined in California Code of Civil Procedure Section 1281.8 shall be heard and determined by the court, and (b) without limiting the generality of Sections 9.1 and 9.2, the Borrowers shall be solely responsible to pay all fees and expenses of any referee appointed in such action or proceeding.

Section 9.16 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

Section 9.17 Severability. Any provision of any Transaction Document held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable shall not impair or invalidate the remainder of such Transaction Document and the effect thereof shall be confined to the provision held to be invalid or illegal.

Section 9.18 Headings. The headings, captions, and arrangements used in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall not affect the interpretation of this Agreement.

Section 9.19 Construction. Each Borrower, each Guarantor (by its execution of the Transaction Documents to which it is a party), and the Bank each acknowledges that it has had the benefit of legal counsel of its own choice and has been afforded an opportunity to review the Transaction Documents with its legal counsel and that the Transaction Documents shall be construed as if jointly drafted by the parties thereto.

Section 9.20 Independence of Covenants. All covenants under the Transaction Documents shall be given independent effect so that if a particular action or condition is not permitted by any of such

GUARANTY AGREEMENT

(Subsidiary)

This GUARANTY AGREEMENT (this “Guaranty”) dated as of August 30, 2013 is executed and delivered by each of the undersigned (collectively and individually referred to herein as the “Guarantor”), to and in favor of the Bank (as defined below).

RECITALS:

▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇-Sonoma, Inc. (the “Parent”), ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇-Sonoma Singapore Pte. Ltd. (“▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇-Sonoma Singapore” and collectively with the Parent, the “Borrowers” and each a “Borrower”) and Bank of America, N.A. (the “Bank”) are, concurrently herewith entering into a Reimbursement Agreement dated as of August 30, 2013 (as amended, restated, or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Reimbursement Agreement”; capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the same meaning as set forth for such terms in the Reimbursement Agreement).

B. The Guarantor has directly and indirectly benefitted and will directly and indirectly benefit from the Letters of Credit issued pursuant to the Reimbursement Agreement.

C. The execution and delivery of this Guaranty is required by the Reimbursement Agreement and is a condition to the Bank’s taking any Letter of Credit Action under the Reimbursement Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, for valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, the Guarantor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees to the Bank the full and prompt payment and performance of the Guaranteed Indebtedness (as defined below) upon the following terms:

The term “Guaranteed Indebtedness”, as used herein means all of the “Obligations”, as defined in the Reimbursement Agreement and shall include, without limitation, (a) any and all post-petition interest and expenses (including, without limitation, Attorney Costs) whether or not allowed under any bankruptcy, insolvency, or other similar law and (b) the Borrowers’ obligation to reimburse the Bank for any and all drawings under Letters of Credit issued or outstanding on behalf of any Subsidiary (and notwithstanding that such other Subsidiary is obligated to reimburse such Letters of Credit); provided that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Guaranty, the Guaranteed Indebtedness shall be limited to an aggregate amount equal to the greatest amount that would not render the Guarantor’s indebtedness, liabilities, or obligations hereunder void or voidable under Sections 544, 548, or 550 of the Bankruptcy Code or subject to being set aside or annulled under any applicable state law relating to fraud on creditors; provided, further, that, for purposes of the immediately preceding clauses, it shall be presumed that the Guaranteed Indebtedness hereunder does not equal or exceed any aggregate amount which would render the Guarantor’s indebtedness, liabilities, or obligations hereunder subject to being so avoided, set aside, or annulled, and the burden of proof to the contrary shall be on the party asserting to the contrary. Subject to but without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the provisions of this Guaranty are severable and, in any legally binding action or proceeding involving any state corporate law or any bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, or other laws of general application relating to the enforcement of creditors’ rights and general principles of

A-1

equity, if the indebtedness, liabilities, or obligations of the Guarantor hereunder would otherwise be held or determined to be void, invalid, or unenforceable on account of the amount of its indebtedness, liabilities, or obligations hereunder, then, notwithstanding any other provision of this Guaranty to the contrary, the amount of such indebtedness, liabilities, or obligations shall, for purposes of determining the Guarantor’s obligations under this Guaranty, without any further action by the Guarantor or any other Person, be automatically limited and reduced to the greatest amount which is valid and enforceable as determined in such action or proceeding.

The Guarantor, together with each guarantor under any other guaranty (and specifically including each Guarantor hereunder), if any, relating to the Reimbursement Agreement (the “Related Guaranties”) which contain a contribution provision similar to that set forth in this paragraph 2, agrees that it and all such other guarantors (collectively, the “Contributing Guarantors”) together desire to allocate among themselves, in a fair and equitable manner, their obligations arising under this Guaranty and the Related Guaranties. Accordingly, in the event any payment or distribution is made by the Guarantor under this Guaranty or a guarantor under a Related Guaranty (a “Funding Guarantor”) that exceeds its Fair Share (as defined below), that Funding Guarantor shall be entitled to a contribution from each of the other Contributing Guarantors in the amount of such other Contributing Guarantor’s Fair Share Shortfall (as defined below), with the result that all such contributions will cause each Contributing Guarantor’s Aggregate Payments (as defined below) to equal its Fair Share; provided, however, that the obligations to or from any Funding Guarantor as described in this paragraph 2 shall be subordinate to the obligation of the Guarantor to pay the Guaranteed Indebtedness as more fully set forth in paragraph 11 hereof. “Fair Share” means, with respect to a Contributing Guarantor as of any date of determination, an amount equal to (a) the ratio of (i) the Adjusted Maximum Amount (as defined below) with respect to such Contributing Guarantor to (ii) the aggregate of the Adjusted Maximum Amounts with respect to all Contributing Guarantors, multiplied by (b) the aggregate amount paid or distributed on or before such date by all Funding Guarantors under this Guaranty and the Related Guaranties in respect of the obligations guaranteed. “Fair Share Shortfall” means, with respect to a Contributing Guarantor as of any date of determination, the excess, if any, of the Fair Share of such Contributing Guarantor over the Aggregate Payments of such Contributing Guarantor. “Adjusted Maximum Amount” means, with respect to a Contributing Guarantor as of any date of determination, the maximum aggregate amount of the obligations of such Contributing Guarantor under this Guaranty or a Related Guaranty, in each case determined in accordance with the provisions hereof and thereof; provided that, solely for purposes of calculating the “Adjusted Maximum Amount” with respect to any Contributing Guarantor for purposes of this paragraph 2, the assets or liabilities arising by virtue of any rights to or obligations of contribution hereunder or under any similar provision contained in a Related Guaranty shall not be considered as assets or liabilities of such Contributing Guarantor. “Aggregate Payments” means, with respect to a Contributing Guarantor as of any date of determination, the aggregate amount of all payments and distributions made on or before such date by such Contributing Guarantor in respect of this Guaranty and the Related Guaranties (including, without limitation, in respect of this paragraph 2 or any similar provision contained in a Related Guaranty). The amounts payable as contributions hereunder and under similar provisions in the Related Guaranties shall be determined as of the date on which the related payment or distribution is made by the applicable Funding Guarantor. The allocation among Contributing Guarantors of their obligations as set forth in this paragraph 2 or any similar provision contained in a Related Guaranty shall not be

A-2

construed in any way to limit the liability of any Contributing Guarantor hereunder or under a Related Guaranty. Each Contributing Guarantor under a Related Guaranty is a third party beneficiary to the contribution agreement set forth in this paragraph 2.

This Guaranty shall be an absolute, continuing, irrevocable, and unconditional guaranty of payment and performance and not a guaranty of collection, and the Guarantor shall remain liable on its obligations hereunder until the payment and performance in full of the Guaranteed Indebtedness. No set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, reduction, or diminution of any obligation, or any defense of any kind or nature (other than payment or performance) which any Borrower may have against the Bank or any other party, or which the Guarantor may have against any Borrower, the Bank, or any other party, shall be available to, or shall be asserted by, the Guarantor against the Bank or any subsequent holder of the Guaranteed Indebtedness or any part thereof or against payment of the Guaranteed Indebtedness or any part thereof.

If the Guarantor becomes liable for any indebtedness owing by a Borrower to the Bank by endorsement or otherwise, other than under this Guaranty, such liability shall not be in any manner impaired or affected hereby, and the rights of the Bank hereunder shall be cumulative of any and all other rights that the Bank may ever have against the Guarantor. The exercise by the Bank of any right or remedy hereunder or under any other instrument, or at law or in equity, shall not preclude the concurrent or subsequent exercise of any other right or remedy.

In the event of default by a Borrower in payment or performance of the Guaranteed Indebtedness, or any part thereof, when such Guaranteed Indebtedness becomes due, whether by its terms, by acceleration, or otherwise, the Guarantor shall promptly pay the amount due thereon to the Bank, without notice or demand in lawful currency of the U.S., and it shall not be necessary for the Bank, in order to enforce such payment by the Guarantor, first to institute suit or exhaust its remedies against such Borrower or others liable on such Guaranteed Indebtedness, or to enforce any rights against any collateral which shall ever have been given to secure such Guaranteed Indebtedness. In the event such payment is made by the Guarantor, then the Guarantor shall be subrogated to the rights then held by the Bank with respect to the Guaranteed Indebtedness to the extent to which the Guaranteed Indebtedness was discharged by the Guarantor and, in addition, upon payment by the Guarantor of any sums to the Bank hereunder, all rights of the Guarantor against the applicable Borrower, any other guarantor of the Guaranteed Indebtedness, or any collateral arising as a result therefrom by way of right of subrogation, reimbursement, or otherwise shall in all respects be subordinate and junior in right of payment to the prior indefeasible payment in full of the Guaranteed Indebtedness and no such right or remedy of subrogation, reimbursement or otherwise shall be exercised or otherwise entered (except that proofs of claim may be filed in a bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding) unless and until the Guaranteed Indebtedness has been indefeasibly paid in full.

If acceleration of the time for payment of any amount payable by a Borrower under the Guaranteed Indebtedness is stayed upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, or reorganization of such Borrower, all such amounts otherwise subject to acceleration under the terms of the Guaranteed Indebtedness shall nonetheless be payable by the Guarantor hereunder forthwith on demand by the Bank.

A-3

The Guarantor hereby agrees that its obligations under this Guaranty shall not be released, discharged, diminished, impaired, reduced, or affected for any reason or by the occurrence of any event, including, without limitation, one or more of the following occurrences or events, whether or not with notice to or the consent of the Guarantor: (a) the taking or accepting of collateral as security for any or all of the Guaranteed Indebtedness or the release, surrender, exchange, or subordination of any collateral now or hereafter securing any or all of the Guaranteed Indebtedness; (b) any partial release of the liability of the Guarantor hereunder, or the full or partial release of any other guarantor of the Guaranteed Indebtedness from liability for any or all of the Guaranteed Indebtedness; (c) any disability of a Borrower, or the dissolution, insolvency, or bankruptcy of a Borrower, the Guarantor, or any other party at any time liable for the payment of any or all of the Guaranteed Indebtedness; (d) any renewal, extension, modification, waiver, amendment, or rearrangement of any or all of the Guaranteed Indebtedness or any instrument, document, or agreement evidencing, securing, or otherwise relating to any or all of the Guaranteed Indebtedness; (e) any adjustment, indulgence, forbearance, waiver, or compromise that may be granted or given by the Bank to any Borrower, the Guarantor, or any other party ever liable for any or all of the Guaranteed Indebtedness; (f) any neglect, delay, omission, failure, or refusal of the Bank to take or prosecute any action for the collection of any of the Guaranteed Indebtedness or to foreclose or take or prosecute any action in connection with any instrument, document, or agreement evidencing, securing, or otherwise relating to any or all of the Guaranteed Indebtedness; (g) the unenforceability or invalidity of any or all of the Guaranteed Indebtedness or of any instrument, document, or agreement evidencing, securing, or otherwise relating to any or all of the Guaranteed Indebtedness; (h) any payment by any Borrower or any other party to the Bank is held to constitute a preference under applicable bankruptcy or insolvency law or if for any other reason the Bank is required to refund any payment or pay the amount thereof to someone else; (i) the settlement or compromise of any of the Guaranteed Indebtedness; (j) the non-perfection of any Lien securing any or all of the Guaranteed Indebtedness; (k) any impairment of any collateral securing any or all of the Guaranteed Indebtedness; (1) the failure of the Bank to sell any collateral securing any or all of the Guaranteed Indebtedness in a commercially reasonable manner or as otherwise required by law; (m) any change in the corporate existence, structure, or ownership of the Borrowers; or (n) any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or discharge of, any Borrower, the Guarantor, or any other party at any time liable for the payment of any or all of the Guaranteed Indebtedness other than payment of the Guaranteed Indebtedness.

The Guarantor represents and warrants as follows:

(a) All of the representations and warranties in the Reimbursement Agreement relating to the Guarantor are true and correct as of the Closing Date and on each date the representations and warranties hereunder are restated pursuant to the Transaction Documents with the same force and effect as if such representations and warranties had been made on and as of such date except to the extent that such representations and warranties relate specifically to another date or to the extent that a fact, event, or circumstance has occurred that makes such representation or warranty untrue but which is not prohibited to occur or exist (or which does not cause a Default or an Event of Default) under the Transaction Documents.

A-4

(b) The value of the consideration received and to be received by the Guarantor as a result of the Borrowers and the Bank entering into the Reimbursement Agreement and the Guarantor’s executing and delivering this Guaranty and the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party is reasonably worth at least as much as the liability and obligation of the Guarantor hereunder and thereunder, and the Reimbursement Agreement and the extension of credit to the Borrowers thereunder have benefitted and may reasonably be expected to benefit the Guarantor directly or indirectly. Execution and delivery of this Guaranty and the other Transaction Documents to which the Guarantor is a party is necessary or convenient to the conduct, promotion, and attainment of the business of the Guarantor.

(c) The Guarantor has, independently and without reliance upon the Bank and based upon such documents and information as the Guarantor has deemed appropriate, made its own analysis and decision to enter into the Transaction Documents to which it is a party.

(d) The Guarantor has adequate means to obtain from the Borrowers on a continuing basis information concerning the financial condition and assets of the Borrowers, and the Guarantor is not relying upon the Bank to provide (and the Bank shall not have any duty to provide) any such information to the Guarantor either now or in the future.

The Guarantor covenants and agrees that, as long as the Guaranteed Indebtedness or any part thereof is outstanding or the Bank has any commitment under the Reimbursement Agreement, the Guarantor will comply with all covenants set forth in the Reimbursement Agreement specifically applicable to the Guarantor, the terms of which are incorporated herein by reference.

10.

During the existence of an Event of Default, the Bank shall have the right to set-off and apply against this Guaranty or the Guaranteed Indebtedness or both, at any time and without notice to the Guarantor, any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, but excluding any account established by the Guarantor as a fiduciary for another party) or other sums at any time credited by or owing from the Bank to the Guarantor whether or not the Guaranteed Indebtedness is then due and irrespective of whether or not the Bank shall have made any demand under this Guaranty. The Bank agrees promptly to notify the Parent after any such set-off and application; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. The rights and remedies of the Bank hereunder are in addition to other rights and remedies (including, without limitation, other rights of set-off) which the Bank may have.

11.

(a) The Guarantor hereby agrees that the Subordinated Indebtedness (as defined below) shall be subordinate and junior in right of payment to the prior indefeasible payment in full of all Guaranteed Indebtedness as herein provided. The Subordinated Indebtedness shall not be payable, and no payment of principal, interest, or other amounts on account thereof, and no property or guarantee of any nature to secure or pay the Subordinated Indebtedness or any part thereof shall be made or given, directly or indirectly by or on behalf of any Debtor (as defined below) or received, accepted, retained, or applied by the Guarantor unless and until the Guaranteed Indebtedness shall have been indefeasibly paid in full in cash; except that prior to occurrence of an Event of Default, the Guarantor shall have the right to receive payments on the Subordinated Indebtedness made in the ordinary course of business unless, and except to the extent that, the payment or receipt of such payments is prohibited or otherwise restricted by the Reimbursement Agreement or another Transaction Document other than this Guaranty. During the existence of a Default, no payments of principal or interest may be made or

A-5

given, directly or indirectly, by or on behalf of any Debtor or received, accepted, retained, or applied by the Guarantor, except for payments in Securities subordinated at least to the same extent as the Subordinated Indebtedness, unless and until the Guaranteed Indebtedness shall have been indefeasibly paid in full in cash. If any sums shall be paid to the Guarantor by any Debtor or any other Person on account of the Subordinated Indebtedness when such payment is not permitted hereunder, such sums shall be held in trust by the Guarantor for the benefit of the Bank and shall forthwith be paid to the Bank without affecting the liability of the Guarantor under this Guaranty and may be applied by the Bank against the Guaranteed Indebtedness in accordance with the terms of the Reimbursement Agreement. Upon the request of the Bank, the Guarantor shall execute, deliver, and endorse to the Bank such documentation as the Bank may request to perfect, preserve, and enforce its rights hereunder. For purposes of this Guaranty, the term “Subordinated Indebtedness” means all indebtedness, liabilities, and obligations of the Borrowers or any other party obligated at any time to pay any of the Guaranteed Indebtedness other than the Guarantor (the Borrowers and such other obligated parties (including, without limitation, any Contributing Guarantors) are referred to herein as the “Debtors”) to the Guarantor, whether such indebtedness, liabilities, and obligations now exist or are hereafter incurred or arise, or are direct, indirect, contingent, primary, secondary, several, joint and several, or otherwise, and irrespective of whether such indebtedness, liabilities, or obligations are evidenced by a note, contract, open account, or otherwise, and irrespective of the Person or Persons in whose favor such indebtedness, obligations, or liabilities may, at their inception, have been, or may hereafter be created, or the manner in which they have been or may hereafter be acquired by the Guarantor.

(b)

The Guarantor agrees that any and all Liens (including, without limitation, any judgment liens), upon any Debtor’s assets securing payment of any Subordinated Indebtedness shall be and remain inferior and subordinate to any and all Liens, if any, upon any Debtor’s assets securing payment of the Guaranteed Indebtedness, or any part thereof, regardless of whether such Liens in favor of the Guarantor or the Bank presently exist or are hereafter created or attached. Without the prior written consent of the Bank, until final repayment in full of all Guaranteed Indebtedness, the Guarantor shall not (i) file suit against any Debtor or exercise or enforce any other creditor’s right it may have against any Debtor (provided that the Guarantor may file proofs of claim against any Borrower or any other Debtor in any bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding), or (ii) foreclose, repossess, sequester, or otherwise take steps or institute any action or proceedings (judicial or otherwise, including, without limitation, the commencement of, or joinder in, any liquidation, bankruptcy, rearrangement, debtor’s relief, or insolvency proceeding) to enforce any obligations of any Debtor to the Guarantor or any Liens held by the Guarantor on assets of any Debtor.

(c)

In the event of any receivership, bankruptcy, reorganization, rearrangement, debtor’s relief, or other insolvency proceeding involving any Debtor as debtor, the Bank shall have the right to prove and vote any claim under the Subordinated Indebtedness and to receive directly from the receiver, trustee, or other court custodian all dividends, distributions, and payments made in respect of the Subordinated Indebtedness, except payments in Securities subordinated at least to the same extent as the Subordinated Indebtedness, until the Guaranteed Indebtedness has been indefeasibly paid in full in cash. The Bank may apply any such dividends, distributions, and payments against the Guaranteed Indebtedness in accordance with the terms of the Reimbursement Agreement.

(d)

The Guarantor agrees that all promissory notes, accounts receivable, ledgers, records, or any other evidence of Subordinated Indebtedness shall contain a specific written notice thereon that the indebtedness evidenced thereby is subordinated under the terms of this Guaranty.

A-6

12.

No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Guaranty or consent to any departure by the Guarantor therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Bank except as otherwise provided in the Reimbursement Agreement. No failure on the part of the Bank to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right, power, or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power, or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power, or privilege. The remedies herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law.

13.

Any acknowledgment or new promise, whether by payment of principal or interest or otherwise and whether by the Borrowers or others (including, without limitation, any guarantor of the Guaranteed Indebtedness), with respect to any of the Guaranteed Indebtedness shall, if the statute of limitations in favor of the Guarantor against the Bank shall have commenced to run, toll the running of such statute of limitations and, if the period of such statute of limitations shall have expired, prevent the operation of such statute of limitations.

14.

This Guaranty is for the benefit of the Bank and its successors and assigns, and, in the event of an assignment of the Guaranteed Indebtedness, or any part thereof, the rights and benefits hereunder, to the extent applicable to the indebtedness so assigned, may be transferred with such indebtedness. This Guaranty is binding not only on the Guarantor, but on the Guarantor’s successors and assigns.

15.

The Guarantor recognizes that the Bank is relying upon this Guaranty and the undertakings of the Guarantor hereunder and under the other Transaction Documents to which the Guarantor is a party in making extensions of credit to the Borrowers under the Reimbursement Agreement and further recognizes that the execution and delivery of this Guaranty and the other Transaction Documents to which the Guarantor is a party is a material inducement to the Bank in entering into the Reimbursement Agreement and continuing to extend credit thereunder. The Guarantor hereby acknowledges that there are no conditions to the full effectiveness of this Guaranty or any other Transaction Document to which it is a party.

16.

Any notice or demand to the Guarantor under or in connection with this Guaranty or any other Transaction Document to which it is a party shall be deemed effective if given to the Guarantor, at the address of the Borrowers in accordance with the notice provisions in the Reimbursement Agreement.

17.

The Guarantor shall pay on demand all Attorney Costs and all other reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Bank in connection with the administration, enforcement, or collection of this Guaranty.

A-7

18.

The Guarantor hereby waives promptness, diligence, notice of any default under the Guaranteed Indebtedness, demand of payment, notice of acceptance of this Guaranty, presentment, notice of protest, notice of dishonor, notice of the incurring by any Borrower of additional indebtedness, and all other notices and demands with respect to the Guaranteed Indebtedness and this Guaranty.

19.

The Reimbursement Agreement, and all of the terms thereof, are incorporated herein by reference the same as if stated verbatim herein, and the Guarantor agrees that the Bank may exercise any and all rights granted to it under the Reimbursement Agreement and the other Transaction Documents without affecting the validity or enforceability of this Guaranty.

20.

Notwithstanding any provision of this Guaranty to the contrary:

(a)

The Guarantor understands and acknowledges that if the Bank forecloses, either by judicial foreclosure or by exercise of power of sale, any deed of trust securing the indebtedness, that foreclosure could impair or destroy any ability that the Guarantor may have to seek reimbursement, contribution, or indemnification from the Borrowers or others based on any right the Guarantor may have of subrogation, reimbursement, contribution, or indemnification for any amounts paid by the Guarantor under this Guaranty. The Guarantor further understands and acknowledges that in the absence of this paragraph, such potential impairment or destruction of the Guarantor’s rights, if any, may entitle the Guarantor to assert a defense to this Guaranty based on Section 580d of the California Code of Civil Procedure as interpreted in Union Bank ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, 265 Cal. App. 2d 40 (1968). By executing this Guaranty, the Guarantor freely, irrevocably, and unconditionally (i) waives and relinquishes that defense and agrees that the Guarantor will be fully liable under this Guaranty even though the Bank may foreclose, either by judicial foreclosure or by exercise of power of sale, any deed of trust securing the Guaranteed Indebtedness, (ii) agrees that the Guarantor will not assert that defense in any action or proceeding which the Bank may commence to enforce this Guaranty, (iii) acknowledges and agrees that the rights and defenses waived by the Guarantor in this Guaranty include any right or defense that the Guarantor may have or be entitled to assert based upon or arising out of any one or more of Sections 580a, 580b, 580d, or 726 of the California Code of Civil Procedure or Section 2848 of the California Civil Code, and (iv) acknowledges and agrees that the Bank is relying on this waiver in creating the Guaranteed Indebtedness, and that this waiver is a material part of the consideration which the Bank is receiving for creating the Guaranteed Indebtedness.

(b)

The Guarantor waives any rights and defenses that are or may become available to the Guarantor by reason of Sections 2787 to 2855, inclusive, of the California Civil Code.

(c)

The Guarantor waives all rights and defenses that the Guarantor may have because any of the indebtedness is secured by real property. This means, among other things:

(i)

the Bank may collect from the Guarantor without first foreclosing on any real or personal property collateral pledged by a Borrower; and

A-8

(ii)

if the Bank forecloses on any real property collateral pledged by a Borrower (1) the amount of the indebtedness may be reduced only by the price for which that collateral is sold at the foreclosure sale, even if the collateral is worth more than the sale price, and (2) the Bank may collect from the Guarantor even if the Bank, by foreclosing on the real property collateral, has destroyed any right the Guarantor may have to collect from such Borrower. This is an unconditional and irrevocable waiver of any rights and defenses the Guarantor may have because any of the indebtedness is secured by real property. These rights and defenses include, but are not limited to, any rights or defenses based upon Section 580a, 580b, 580d, or 726 of the California Code of Civil Procedure.

21.

THIS GUARANTY EMBODIES THE FINAL, ENTIRE AGREEMENT OF THE GUARANTOR WITH RESPECT TO THE GUARANTOR’S GUARANTY OF THE GUARANTEED INDEBTEDNESS AND SUPERSEDES ANY AND ALL PRIOR COMMITMENTS, AGREEMENTS, REPRESENTATIONS, AND UNDERSTANDINGS, WHETHER WRITTEN OR ORAL, RELATING TO THE SUBJECT MATTER HEREOF. THIS GUARANTY IS INTENDED BY THE GUARANTOR AS A FINAL AND COMPLETE EXPRESSION OF THE TERMS OF THIS GUARANTY, AND NO COURSE OF DEALING BETWEEN THE GUARANTOR AND THE BANK, NO COURSE OF PERFORMANCE, NO TRADE PRACTICES, AND NO EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS, OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OR DISCUSSIONS OR OTHER EXTRINSIC EVIDENCE OF ANY NATURE SHALL BE USED TO CONTRADICT, VARY, SUPPLEMENT, OR MODIFY ANY TERM OF THIS GUARANTY. THERE ARE NO ORAL AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE GUARANTOR AND THE BANK.

22.

THIS GUARANTY SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA AND THE APPLICABLE LAWS OF THE U.S.

GUARANTY AGREEMENT

(Parent)

This GUARANTY AGREEMENT (this “Guaranty”) dated as of August 30, 2013 is executed and delivered by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇-Sonoma, Inc. (the “Guarantor”), to and in favor of the Bank (as defined below).

RECITALS:

A. The Guarantor, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇-Sonoma Singapore Pte. Ltd. (“▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇-Sonoma Singapore” and collectively with the Parent, the “Borrowers” and each a “Borrower”) and Bank of America, N.A. (the “Bank”) are, concurrently herewith entering into a Reimbursement Agreement dated as of August 30, 2013 (as amended, restated, or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Reimbursement Agreement”; capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the same meaning as set forth for such terms in the Reimbursement Agreement).

B. The Bank has extended and will from time to time extend credit to the subsidiaries of the Guarantor constituting Borrowers under the Reimbursement Agreement, identified on Schedule A hereto, as amended or supplemented or deemed amended or supplemented from time to time in accordance with Paragraph 21 below (each a “Guaranteed Borrower” and collectively, the “Guaranteed Borrowers”).

C. The Guarantor has directly and indirectly benefitted and will directly and indirectly benefit from the Letters of Credit issued to the Guaranteed Borrowers pursuant to the Reimbursement Agreement.

D. The execution and delivery of this Guaranty is required by the Reimbursement Agreement and is a condition to the Bank’s taking any Letter of Credit Action under the Reimbursement Agreement.

The term “Guaranteed Indebtedness”, as used herein means all of the “Obligations”, as defined in the Reimbursement Agreement, of any Guaranteed Borrower and shall include, without limitation, (a) any and all post-petition interest and expenses (including, without limitation, Attorney Costs) whether or not allowed under any bankruptcy, insolvency, or other similar law and (b) the Guaranteed Borrowers’ obligation to reimburse the Bank for any and all drawings under Letters of Credit issued or outstanding on behalf of any Subsidiary (and notwithstanding that such other Subsidiary is obligated to reimburse such Letters of Credit); provided that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Guaranty, the Guaranteed Indebtedness shall be limited to an aggregate amount equal to the greatest amount that would not render the Guarantor’s indebtedness, liabilities, or obligations hereunder void or voidable under Sections 544, 548, or 550 of the Bankruptcy Code or subject to being set aside or annulled under any applicable state law relating to fraud on creditors; provided, further, that, for purposes of the immediately preceding clauses, it shall be presumed that the Guaranteed Indebtedness hereunder does not equal or exceed any aggregate amount which would render the Guarantor’s indebtedness, liabilities, or obligations hereunder subject to being so avoided, set aside, or annulled, and the burden of proof to the contrary shall be on the party asserting to the contrary. Subject to but without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the provisions of this Guaranty are severable and, in any legally

C - 1

binding action or proceeding involving any state corporate law or any bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, or other laws of general application relating to the enforcement of creditors’ rights and general principles of equity, if the indebtedness, liabilities, or obligations of the Guarantor hereunder would otherwise be held or determined to be void, invalid, or unenforceable on account of the amount of its indebtedness, liabilities, or obligations hereunder, then, notwithstanding any other provision of this Guaranty to the contrary, the amount of such indebtedness, liabilities, or obligations shall, for purposes of determining the Guarantor’s obligations under this Guaranty, without any further action by the Guarantor or any other Person, be automatically limited and reduced to the greatest amount which is valid and enforceable as determined in such action or proceeding.

This Guaranty shall be an absolute, continuing, irrevocable, and unconditional guaranty of payment and performance and not a guaranty of collection, and the Guarantor shall remain liable on its obligations hereunder until the payment and performance in full of the Guaranteed Indebtedness. No set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, reduction, or diminution of any obligation, or any defense of any kind or nature (other than payment or performance) which any Guaranteed Borrower may have against the Bank or any other party, or which the Guarantor may have against any Guaranteed Borrower, the Bank, or any other party, shall be available to, or shall be asserted by, the Guarantor against the Bank or any subsequent holder of the Guaranteed Indebtedness or any part thereof or against payment of the Guaranteed Indebtedness or any part thereof.

If the Guarantor becomes liable for any indebtedness owing by a Guaranteed Borrower to the Bank by endorsement or otherwise, other than under this Guaranty, such liability shall not be in any manner impaired or affected hereby, and the rights of the Bank hereunder shall be cumulative of any and all other rights that the Bank may ever have against the Guarantor. The exercise by the Bank of any right or remedy hereunder or under any other instrument, or at law or in equity, shall not preclude the concurrent or subsequent exercise of any other right or remedy.

In the event of default by a Guaranteed Borrower in payment or performance of the Guaranteed Indebtedness, or any part thereof, when such Guaranteed Indebtedness becomes due, whether by its terms, by acceleration, or otherwise, the Guarantor shall promptly pay the amount due thereon to the Bank, without notice or demand in lawful currency of the U.S., and it shall not be necessary for the Bank, in order to enforce such payment by the Guarantor, first to institute suit or exhaust its remedies against such Guaranteed Borrower or others liable on such Guaranteed Indebtedness, or to enforce any rights against any collateral which shall ever have been given to secure such Guaranteed Indebtedness. In the event such payment is made by the Guarantor, then the Guarantor shall be subrogated to the rights then held by the Bank with respect to the Guaranteed Indebtedness to the extent to which the Guaranteed Indebtedness was discharged by the Guarantor and, in addition, upon payment by the Guarantor of any sums to the Bank hereunder, all rights of the Guarantor against the applicable Guaranteed Borrower, any other guarantor of the Guaranteed Indebtedness, or any collateral arising as a result therefrom by way of right of subrogation, reimbursement, or otherwise shall in all respects be subordinate and junior in right of payment to the prior indefeasible payment in full of the Guaranteed Indebtedness and no such right or remedy of subrogation, reimbursement or otherwise shall be exercised or otherwise entered (except that proofs of claim may be filed in a bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding) unless and until the Guaranteed Indebtedness has been indefeasibly paid in full.

C - 2

If acceleration of the time for payment of any amount payable by a Guaranteed Borrower under the Guaranteed Indebtedness is stayed upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, or reorganization of such Guaranteed Borrower, all such amounts otherwise subject to acceleration under the terms of the Guaranteed Indebtedness shall nonetheless be payable by the Guarantor hereunder forthwith on demand by the Bank.

The Guarantor hereby agrees that its obligations under this Guaranty shall not be released, discharged, diminished, impaired, reduced, or affected for any reason or by the occurrence of any event, including, without limitation, one or more of the following occurrences or events, whether or not with notice to or the consent of the Guarantor: (a) the taking or accepting of collateral as security for any or all of the Guaranteed Indebtedness or the release, surrender, exchange, or subordination of any collateral now or hereafter securing any or all of the Guaranteed Indebtedness; (b) any partial release of the liability of the Guarantor hereunder, or the full or partial release of any other guarantor of the Guaranteed Indebtedness from liability for any or all of the Guaranteed Indebtedness; (c) any disability of a Guaranteed Borrower, or the dissolution, insolvency, or bankruptcy of a Guaranteed Borrower, the Guarantor, or any other party at any time liable for the payment of any or all of the Guaranteed Indebtedness; (d) any renewal, extension, modification, waiver, amendment, or rearrangement of any or all of the Guaranteed Indebtedness or any instrument, document, or agreement evidencing, securing, or otherwise relating to any or all of the Guaranteed Indebtedness; (e) any adjustment, indulgence, forbearance, waiver, or compromise that may be granted or given by the Bank to any Guaranteed Borrower, the Guarantor, or any other party ever liable for any or all of the Guaranteed Indebtedness; (f) any neglect, delay, omission, failure, or refusal of the Bank to take or prosecute any action for the collection of any of the Guaranteed Indebtedness or to foreclose or take or prosecute any action in connection with any instrument, document, or agreement evidencing, securing, or otherwise relating to any or all of the Guaranteed Indebtedness; (g) the unenforceability or invalidity of any or all of the Guaranteed Indebtedness or of any instrument, document, or agreement evidencing, securing, or otherwise relating to any or all of the Guaranteed Indebtedness; (h) any payment by any Guaranteed Borrower or any other party to the Bank is held to constitute a preference under applicable bankruptcy or insolvency law or if for any other reason the Bank is required to refund any payment or pay the amount thereof to someone else; (i) the settlement or compromise of any of the Guaranteed Indebtedness; (j) the non-perfection of any Lien securing any or all of the Guaranteed Indebtedness; (k) any impairment of any collateral securing any or all of the Guaranteed Indebtedness; (1) the failure of the Bank to sell any collateral securing any or all of the Guaranteed Indebtedness in a commercially reasonable manner or as otherwise required by law; (m) any change in the corporate existence, structure, or ownership of the Guaranteed Borrowers; or (n) any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or discharge of, any Guaranteed Borrower, the Guarantor, or any other party at any time liable for the payment of any or all of the Guaranteed Indebtedness other than payment of the Guaranteed Indebtedness.

C - 3

The Guarantor represents and warrants as follows:

(d) The Guarantor has adequate means to obtain from the Guaranteed Borrowers on a continuing basis information concerning the financial condition and assets of the Guaranteed Borrowers, and the Guarantor is not relying upon the Bank to provide (and the Bank shall not have any duty to provide) any such information to the Guarantor either now or in the future.

C - 4

Indebtedness made in the ordinary course of business unless, and except to the extent that, the payment or receipt of such payments is prohibited or otherwise restricted by the Reimbursement Agreement or another Transaction Document other than this Guaranty. During the existence of a Default, no payments of principal or interest may be made or given, directly or indirectly, by or on behalf of any Debtor or received, accepted, retained, or applied by the Guarantor, except for payments in Securities subordinated at least to the same extent as the Subordinated Indebtedness, unless and until the Guaranteed Indebtedness shall have been indefeasibly paid in full in cash. If any sums shall be paid to the Guarantor by any Debtor or any other Person on account of the Subordinated Indebtedness when such payment is not permitted hereunder, such sums shall be held in trust by the Guarantor for the benefit of the Bank and shall forthwith be paid to the Bank without affecting the liability of the Guarantor under this Guaranty and may be applied by the Bank against the Guaranteed Indebtedness in accordance with the terms of the Reimbursement Agreement. Upon the request of the Bank, the Guarantor shall execute, deliver, and endorse to the Bank such documentation as the Bank may request to perfect, preserve, and enforce its rights hereunder. For purposes of this Guaranty, the term “Subordinated Indebtedness” means all indebtedness, liabilities, and obligations of the Borrowers or any other party obligated at any time to pay any of the Guaranteed Indebtedness other than the Guarantor (the Borrowers and such other obligated parties are referred to herein as the “Debtors”) to the Guarantor, whether such indebtedness, liabilities, and obligations now exist or are hereafter incurred or arise, or are direct, indirect, contingent, primary, secondary, several, joint and several, or otherwise, and irrespective of whether such indebtedness, liabilities, or obligations are evidenced by a note, contract, open account, or otherwise, and irrespective of the Person or Persons in whose favor such indebtedness, obligations, or liabilities may, at their inception, have been, or may hereafter be created, or the manner in which they have been or may hereafter be acquired by the Guarantor.

(b) The Guarantor agrees that any and all Liens (including, without limitation, any judgment liens), upon any Debtor’s assets securing payment of any Subordinated Indebtedness shall be and remain inferior and subordinate to any and all Liens, if any, upon any Debtor’s assets securing payment of the Guaranteed Indebtedness, or any part thereof, regardless of whether such Liens in favor of the Guarantor or the Bank presently exist or are hereafter created or attached. Without the prior written consent of the Bank, until final repayment in full of all Guaranteed Indebtedness, the Guarantor shall not (i) file suit against any Debtor or exercise or enforce any other creditor’s right it may have against any Debtor (provided that the Guarantor may file proofs of claim against any Guaranteed Borrower or any other Debtor in any bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding), or (ii) foreclose, repossess, sequester, or otherwise take steps or institute any action or proceedings (judicial or otherwise, including, without limitation, the commencement of, or joinder in, any liquidation, bankruptcy, rearrangement, debtor’s relief, or insolvency proceeding) to enforce any obligations of any Debtor to the Guarantor or any Liens held by the Guarantor on assets of any Debtor.

(c) In the event of any receivership, bankruptcy, reorganization, rearrangement, debtor’s relief, or other insolvency proceeding involving any Debtor as debtor, the Bank shall have the right to prove and vote any claim under the Subordinated Indebtedness and to receive directly from the receiver, trustee, or other court custodian all dividends, distributions, and payments made in respect of the Subordinated Indebtedness,

C - 5

except payments in Securities subordinated at least to the same extent as the Subordinated Indebtedness, until the Guaranteed Indebtedness has been indefeasibly paid in full in cash. The Bank may apply any such dividends, distributions, and payments against the Guaranteed Indebtedness in accordance with the terms of the Reimbursement Agreement.

(d) The Guarantor agrees that all promissory notes, accounts receivable, ledgers, records, or any other evidence of Subordinated Indebtedness shall contain a specific written notice thereon that the indebtedness evidenced thereby is subordinated under the terms of this Guaranty.

10.

11.

Any acknowledgment or new promise, whether by payment of principal or interest or otherwise and whether by the Guaranteed Borrowers or others (including, without limitation, any guarantor of the Guaranteed Indebtedness), with respect to any of the Guaranteed Indebtedness shall, if the statute of limitations in favor of the Guarantor against the Bank shall have commenced to run, toll the running of such statute of limitations and, if the period of such statute of limitations shall have expired, prevent the operation of such statute of limitations.

12.

13.

14.

C - 6

15.

16.

The Guarantor hereby waives promptness, diligence, notice of any default under the Guaranteed Indebtedness, demand of payment, notice of acceptance of this Guaranty, presentment, notice of protest, notice of dishonor, notice of the incurring by any Guaranteed Borrower of additional indebtedness, and all other notices and demands with respect to the Guaranteed Indebtedness and this Guaranty.

17.

18.

Notwithstanding any provision of this Guaranty to the contrary:

(a)

The Guarantor understands and acknowledges that if the Bank forecloses, either by judicial foreclosure or by exercise of power of sale, any deed of trust securing the indebtedness, that foreclosure could impair or destroy any ability that the Guarantor may have to seek reimbursement, contribution, or indemnification from the Guaranteed Borrowers or others based on any right the Guarantor may have of subrogation, reimbursement, contribution, or indemnification for any amounts paid by the Guarantor under this Guaranty. The Guarantor further understands and acknowledges that in the absence of this paragraph, such potential impairment or destruction of the Guarantor’s rights, if any, may entitle the Guarantor to assert a defense to this Guaranty based on Section 580d of the California Code of Civil Procedure as interpreted in Union Bank ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, 265 Cal. App. 2d 40 (1968). By executing this Guaranty, the Guarantor freely, irrevocably, and unconditionally (i) waives and relinquishes that defense and agrees that the Guarantor will be fully liable under this Guaranty even though the Bank may foreclose, either by judicial foreclosure or by exercise of power of sale, any deed of trust securing the Guaranteed Indebtedness, (ii) agrees that the Guarantor will not assert that defense in any action or proceeding which the Bank may commence to enforce this Guaranty, (iii) acknowledges and agrees that the rights and defenses waived by the Guarantor in this Guaranty include any right or defense that the Guarantor may have or be entitled to assert based upon or arising out of any one or more of Sections 580a, 580b, 580d, or 726 of the California Code of Civil Procedure or Section 2848 of the California Civil Code, and (iv) acknowledges and agrees that the Bank is relying on this waiver in creating the Guaranteed Indebtedness, and that this waiver is a material part of the consideration which the Bank is receiving for creating the Guaranteed Indebtedness.

(b)

The Guarantor waives any rights and defenses that are or may become available to the Guarantor by reason of Sections 2787 to 2855, inclusive, of the California Civil Code.

C - 7

(c)

The Guarantor waives all rights and defenses that the Guarantor may have because any of the indebtedness is secured by real property. This means, among other things:

(i)

the Bank may collect from the Guarantor without first foreclosing on any real or personal property collateral pledged by a Guaranteed Borrower; and

(ii)

if the Bank forecloses on any real property collateral pledged by a Guaranteed Borrower (1) the amount of the indebtedness may be reduced only by the price for which that collateral is sold at the foreclosure sale, even if the collateral is worth more than the sale price, and (2) the Bank may collect from the Guarantor even if the Bank, by foreclosing on the real property collateral, has destroyed any right the Guarantor may have to collect from such Guaranteed Borrower. This is an unconditional and irrevocable waiver of any rights and defenses the Guarantor may have because any of the indebtedness is secured by real property. These rights and defenses include, but are not limited to, any rights or defenses based upon Section 580a, 580b, 580d, or 726 of the California Code of Civil Procedure.

19.

20.

THIS GUARANTY SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA AND THE APPLICABLE LAWS OF THE U.S.

21.

From time to time the Guarantor and the Bank may amend or supplement Schedule A hereto to add or delete Guaranteed Borrowers or to change other information thereon by a written instrument executed by the Bank and the Guarantor. Any such amended Schedule A shall be deemed to replace or supplement, as applicable, the prior Schedule A without further action by any party hereto; provided that (i) Schedule A shall be automatically deemed amended to include any extensions of credit extended to any subsidiary of the Guarantor in reliance on this Guaranty, (ii) no amendment shall terminate this Guaranty as to Guaranteed Obligations which remain outstanding or to extensions of credit made pursuant to existing commitments which would have been Guaranteed Obligations but for such amendment (including, in each case, all renewals,

C - 8

compromises, extensions and modifications of such Guaranteed Obligations), (iii) no amendment shall limit the rights of the Bank under paragraph 2 hereof, and (iv) no amendment shall in itself be deemed a commitment by the Bank to extend any credit.
