(i) any order, judgment, or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall enjoin or restrain, or purport to enjoin or restrain, Lender from issuing such Letter of Credit, or any Law applicable to Lender shall prohibit, or request that Lender refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon Lender with respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve, or capital requirement (for which Lender is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the Closing Date, or shall impose upon Lender any unreimbursed loss, cost, or expense that was not applicable on the Closing Date and that Lender in good ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ material to it; or

(ii) the issuance of such Letter of Credit would violate one or more policies of Lender.

In addition, Lender shall be under no obligation to amend any Letter of Credit if (A) Lender would have no obligation at such time to issue the Letter of Credit in its amended form under the terms hereof, or (B) the beneficiary of the Letter of Credit does not accept the proposed amendment to the Letter of Credit.

(e) Cash Collateral.

(i) If Borrower is required to provide cash collateral for any Letter of Credit Obligations pursuant to the Agreement prior to the Termination Date, Borrower will pay to Lender cash or cash equivalents acceptable to Lender (“Cash Collateral”) in an amount equal to 105% of the Letter of Credit Obligations plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon. Such Cash Collateral shall be held by Lender and pledged to, and subject to the control of, Lender. Borrower hereby pledges and grants to Lender a security interest in all such Cash Collateral and all proceeds thereof, as security for the payment of all amounts due in respect of the Letter of Credit Obligations and other Obligations, whether or not then due. The Agreement, including this paragraph (e)(i), shall constitute a security agreement under applicable Laws.

(ii) If any Letter of Credit Obligations, whether or not then due and payable, shall for any reason be outstanding on the Termination Date, Borrower shall either (A) provide Cash Collateral therefor in the manner described, and

subject to the terms and conditions as set forth, above, or (B) cause all such Letters of Credit and guaranties thereof, if any, to be canceled and returned.

(iii) From time to time after funds are deposited as Cash Collateral by Borrower, whether before or after the Termination Date, Lender may apply such funds then held by it to the payment of any amounts, and in such order as Lender may elect, as shall be or shall become due and payable by Borrower to Lender with respect to such Letter of Credit Obligations of Borrower and, upon the satisfaction in full of all Letter of Credit Obligations of Borrower, to any other Obligations then due and payable.

(iv) Neither Borrower nor any Person claiming on behalf of or through Borrower shall have any right to withdraw any of the Cash Collateral, except that upon the termination of all Letter of Credit Obligations and the payment of all amounts payable by Borrower to Lender in respect thereof, any remaining Cash Collateral shall be applied to other Obligations then due and owing and upon payment in full of such Obligations any remaining amount shall be paid to Borrower or as otherwise required by Law. Interest earned, if any, on Cash Collateral shall be held as additional collateral.

(f) Fees and Expenses. In addition to the Letter of Credit Fees payable pursuant to Section 4.05(c) of this Agreement, Borrower shall pay to Lender, on demand, such fees as are set forth from time to time in Lender’s fee schedule for letters of credit. The Borrower acknowledges that Lender may modify such fee schedule at any time and will communicate such new fee schedule information to the Borrower as required in the notice provision hereunder. Such new fees will be effective 30 days after such notice and shall apply as of such date to all existing and future Letters of Credit issued by Lender. In the event of any inconsistency between the fees set forth in this Agreement and the fees set forth in such fee schedule, the fees set forth in this Agreement will control.

(g) Obligations Absolute. The obligation of Borrower to reimburse Lender for payments made with respect to any Letter of Credit Obligation shall be absolute, unconditional, and irrevocable, without necessity of presentment, demand, protest, or other formalities. Such obligations of Borrower shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms hereof under all circumstances, including the following:

(i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or the Agreement or the other Loan Documents or any other agreement;

(ii) the existence of any claim, setoff, defense, or other right that Borrower or any of its Affiliates may at any time have against a beneficiary or any transferee of any Letter of Credit (or any Persons or entities for whom any such transferee may be acting), Lender, or any other Person, whether in connection with the Agreement, the Letter of Credit, the transactions contemplated herein or therein, or any unrelated transaction (including any underlying transaction between Borrower or any of its Affiliates and the beneficiary for which the Letter of Credit was procured);

(iii) any draft, demand, certificate 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;

(iv) payment by Lender (except as otherwise expressly provided in paragraph (i)(ii)(C) below) under any Letter of Credit or guaranty thereof against presentation of a demand, draft, certificate, or other document that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit or such guaranty;

(v) the fact that a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; or

(vi) any other circumstance or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing.

(h) Indemnification; Nature of Lender’s Duties.

(i) In addition to amounts payable as elsewhere provided in the Agreement, Borrower hereby agrees to pay and to protect, indemnify, and save harmless Lender from and against any and all claims, demands, liabilities, damages, losses, costs, charges, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and allocated costs of internal counsel) that Lender may incur or be subject to as a consequence, direct or indirect, of (A) the issuance of any Letter of Credit or guaranty thereof, or (B) the failure of Lender seeking indemnification or of Lender to honor a demand for payment under any Letter of Credit or guaranty thereof as a result of any act or omission, whether rightful or wrongful, of any present or future de jure or de facto government or Governmental Authority, in each case other than to the extent as a result of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Lender (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction).

(ii) As between Lender and Borrower, Borrower assumes all risks of the acts and omissions of, or misuse of any Letter of Credit by, beneficiaries of any Letter of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, to the fullest extent permitted by Laws, Lender shall not be responsible for: (A) the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness, or legal effect of any document issued by any party in connection with the application for and issuance of any Letter of Credit, even if it should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent, or forged; (B) the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign any Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, that may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason; (C) failure of the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit to comply fully and strictly with the conditions required in order to demand payment under such Letter of Credit; provided that, in the case of any payment by Lender under any Letter of Credit or guaranty thereof, Lender shall be liable for direct damages (as opposed to consequential or punitive damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted by Law) to the extent such payment was made solely as a result of its

gross negligence or willful misconduct (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction) in determining that the demand for payment under such Letter of Credit or guaranty thereof complies on its face with any applicable requirements for a demand for payment under such Letter of Credit or guaranty thereof; (D) errors, omissions, interruptions, or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, cable, telegraph, telex, or otherwise, whether or not they may be in cipher; (E) errors in interpretation of technical terms; (F) any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a payment under any Letter of Credit or guaranty thereof or of the proceeds thereof; (G) the credit of the proceeds of any drawing under any Letter of Credit or guaranty thereof; and (H) any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of Lender. None of the above shall affect, impair, or prevent the vesting of any of Lender's rights or powers hereunder or under the Agreement.

(iii) Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit or to expand any waivers, covenants, or indemnities made by Borrower in favor of Lender in any letter of credit application, reimbursement agreement, or similar document, instrument, or agreement between Borrower and Lender.

(iv) The provisions of this paragraph (i) shall survive the payment of the Obligations and any termination of the Agreement.

(i) Letters of Credit Issued for account of Subsidiaries. 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, the Borrower shall be obligated as set forth herein for any and all drawings under such Letter of Credit. The Borrower hereby acknowledges that the issuance of Letters of Credit for the account of Subsidiaries inures to the benefit of the Borrower, and that the Borrower’s business derives substantial benefits from the businesses of such Subsidiaries.

(j) Rules of Practice. Unless otherwise expressly agreed by Lender and the Borrower when a Letter of Credit is issued by it, (i) the rules of the International Standby Practices, ICC Publication No. 590 (as amended, supplemented, restated, and/or republished from time to time, the “ISP”) shall apply to each standby Letter of Credit, and (ii) the rules of the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits, International Chamber of Commerce Publication No. 600 (as amended, supplemented, restated, and/or republished from time to time, the “UCP”) shall apply to each commercial Letter of Credit. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lender shall not be responsible to the Borrower for, and Lender’s rights and remedies against the Borrower shall not be impaired by, any action or inaction of Lender required or permitted under any law, order, or practice that is required or permitted to be applied to any Letter of Credit or the Agreement, including the Laws or any order of a jurisdiction where Lender or the beneficiary is located, the practice stated in the ISP or UCP, as applicable, or in the decisions, opinions, practice statements, or official commentary of the International Chamber of Commerce Banking Commission, the Bankers Association for Finance and Trade, or the Institute of International Banking Law & Practice, whether or not any Letter of Credit chooses such laws or practice rules.

3.02 Reimbursement Agreement.

In connection with the execution of this Agreement and prior to the issuance of any Letter of Credit, Borrower and Lender will enter into a Letter of Credit Reimbursement Agreement (the “Reimbursement Agreement”). To the extent any of the terms of this Agreement conflict with the terms of the Reimbursement Agreement, the terms of this Agreement will control.

4. INTEREST, FEES AND CHARGES.

4.01 Interest Rate.

Each Reference Rate Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the applicable borrowing date at a rate per annum equal to the Reference Rate plus the Applicable Margin. Each Tranche Rate Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof for each Interest Period at a rate per annum equal to the Tranche Rate for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Margin.

4.02 Default Interest Rate.

During a Default Period, at Lender’s option, each Loan shall bear interest at the Default Rate, effective as of the date of election by Lender, which interest shall be payable on demand. The decision of Lender to not impose the Default Rate shall be made by the Lender, in its sole discretion, and shall not be a waiver of any of its other rights and remedies.

4.03 Interest Payments.

Interest on Reference Rate Loans shall be due and payable on the first day of each month in arrears and on the Termination Date. Interest accruing on each Tranche Rate Loan shall be due and payable in arrears on the last day of each Interest Period and on the Termination Date.

4.04 Tranche Rate Provisions.

(a) Tranche Rate Election. Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, Borrower may request that Loans permitted to be made hereunder be Tranche Rate Loans and that outstanding portions of Loans made hereunder be converted to Tranche Rate Loans. Each request for a Tranche Rate Loan shall be irrevocable and Borrower shall be bound thereby. In the case of any conversion of a Reference Rate Loan to a Tranche Rate Loan, any conversion of an existing Tranche Rate Loan to a new Tranche Rate Loan with a different Interest Period, or any conversion of a Tranche Rate Loan to a Reference Rate Loan, such election must be made pursuant to a Notice of Conversion. In addition to the other provisions of this Agreement, as a condition to any Tranche Rate election hereunder, on or before the date on which the applicable Tranche Rate Loan is to be advanced or converted hereunder, in each case in accordance with Lender’s loan policies and procedures periodically in effect, Borrower shall notify Lender of each of the following: (i) the requested amount of such Tranche Rate Loan, (ii) the Interest Period that Borrower has elected to apply to such Tranche Rate Loan, and (iii) the date of the requested advance or conversion. In the absence of a Notice of Conversion submitted to Lender not later than noon Cincinnati, Ohio time (or such later time acceptable to Lender in its sole discretion) on the Business Day on which such Interest Period expires, the Borrower will be deemed to have requested that the Tranche Rate Loan

then maturing be continued as a Tranche Rate Loan for the same Interest Period commencing on the date on which such expiring Interest Period ends. If Borrower requests a new Loan but fails to submit a Notice of Borrowing as required by this paragraph, and if Borrower would otherwise be entitled to elect a Tranche Rate Loan under the terms of this Agreement, Borrower will be deemed to have elected to have such principal amount bear interest as a Tranche Rate Loan with a Tranche Interest Period of one month, commencing on the date of the advance. Unless otherwise permitted by Lender in its sole discretion: (A) in no event may the last day of any Interest Period exceed the Maturity Date, (B) in no event may any new Interest Period commence with respect to any Tranche Rate Loan requested to be converted hereunder prior to the expiration of the applicable Interest Period then in effect with respect to such Tranche Rate Loan, (C) there may be no more than five Tranche Rate Loans outstanding at any one time, and (D) if required by Lender in its sole discretion at any time and from time to time, each request for a Tranche Rate Loan, whether by original issuance or conversion, shall be in a minimum amount of $25,000.

(b) Temporary Replacement of the Tranche Rate and Tenor Replacement. In the event, prior to commencement of any Interest Period relating to a Tranche Rate Loan, Lender shall determine that no Successor Rate has been determined in accordance with Section 4.04(c) and either: (i) the Tranche Rate is unavailable, unrepresentative, or unreliable, (ii) the Tranche Rate as determined by Lender will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to Lender of funding the Tranche Rate Loans for such Interest Period, or (iii) the making or funding of Tranche Rate Loans has become impracticable; then, in any such case, Lender shall promptly provide notice of such determination to Borrower (which shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrower absent manifest error), and (A) any request for a Tranche Rate Loan or for a conversion to or continuation of a Tranche Rate Loan shall be automatically withdrawn and shall be deemed a request for a Reference Rate Loan, (B) each Tranche Rate Loan will automatically, on the last day of the then current Interest Period relating thereto, become a Reference Rate Loan, and (C) the obligations of Lender to make Tranche Rate Loans shall be suspended until Lender determines that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, in which event Lender shall so notify Borrower. If a Successor Rate has been determined in accordance with Section 4.04(c) and Lender determines that any of the circumstances described in clauses (i)-(iii) of this paragraph has occurred, then clauses (A)-(C) of this paragraph shall apply as if each reference to Tranche Rate therein were a reference to the Successor Rate.

At any time (including in connection with the implementation of a Successor Rate), the Lender may remove any tenor of a Tranche Rate that is unavailable, non-representative, or not in compliance with or aligned with the International Organization of Securities Commissions (IOSCO) Principles for Financial Benchmarks, in the Lender’s sole discretion, for Tranche Rate settings; provided however that the Lender may reinstate such previously removed tenor for Tranche Rate settings, if the Lender determines in its sole discretion that such tenor has become available and representative again.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document (and any Rate Contract shall be deemed not to be a “Loan Document” for purposes of this Section 4.04(c)), but without limiting Section 4.04(b) above, if the Lender determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding on Borrower absent manifest error) that any of the circumstances described

in Section 4.04(b)(i)-(iii) has occurred and is unlikely to be temporary or the administrator of the Tranche Rate or a Governmental Authority having or purporting to have jurisdiction over the Lender or such administrator has made a public statement identifying a specific date (the “Scheduled Unavailability Date”) after which the Tranche Rate will no longer be representative or made available or used for determining the interest rate of loans or otherwise cease or will no longer be in compliance or aligned with the International Organization of Securities Commissions (IOSCO) Principles for Benchmarks, and there is no successor administrator satisfactory to the Lender, then on a date and time determined by the Lender (the “Tranche Rate Replacement Date”), but no later than the Scheduled Unavailability Date, the Tranche Rate will be replaced hereunder and under any other Loan Document with Daily Simple SOFR.

(i) If the Successor Rate is based on Daily Simple SOFR, interest shall be due and payable on a monthly basis.

(ii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if the Lender determines that Daily Simple SOFR is not available and administratively feasible prior to the Tranche Rate Replacement Date, or if any of the circumstances described in Section 4.04(b)(i) with regard to the Tranche Rate has occurred with respect to a Successor Rate then in effect, the Lender may amend this Agreement solely for the purpose of replacing the Tranche Rate or any then current Successor Rate in accordance with this Section 4.04(c) with another alternative benchmark rate and a Spread Adjustment, giving due consideration to any evolving or then existing convention for similar U.S. dollar denominated credit facilities and any recommendations of a relevant Governmental Authority, and which Spread Adjustment or method for calculating such Spread Adjustment shall be published on an information service as selected by the Lender from time to time in its reasonable discretion. Any such alternative benchmark rate and Spread Adjustment shall constitute a Successor Rate hereunder. Any such amendment shall become effective on the date set forth in a written notice provided by the Lender to the Borrower (such date to be five or more Business Days after the date of such notice).

(iii) The Lender will promptly (in one or more notices) notify the Borrower of the implementation of any Successor Rate. Any Successor Rate shall be applied in a manner consistent with market practice; provided that to the extent such market practice is not administratively feasible for the Lender, such Successor Rate shall be applied in a manner as otherwise reasonably determined by the Lender.

(iv) In connection with the implementation and administration of a Successor Rate (including, without limitation, pursuant to Section 4.04(c)(viii) below), the Lender will have the right to make Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent by Borrower; provided that the Lender shall provide notice of such Conforming Changes to the Borrower reasonably promptly after such amendment becomes effective.

(v) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if the Successor Rate would be less than the Floor, the Successor Rate will be deemed to be the Floor for the purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Further, if the interest rate to be replaced is rounded upwards to the next 1/8th of 1% under the terms of this Agreement or any Loan Document,

the Successor Rate shall also be rounded up to the next 1/8th; provided further that this provision governing rounding shall not apply if the Borrower has a Hedging Agreement in effect with respect to all or part of a Loan.

(vi) The Lender does not warrant or accept any responsibility for, and shall not have any liability with respect to, the administration, submission, or any other matter related to the Tranche Rate or any Successor Rate, including the selection of such rate, any related Spread Adjustment, or any Conforming Changes, or whether the composition or characteristics of any Successor Rate and Spread Adjustment or Conforming Changes will be similar to, or produce the same value or economic equivalence of, the initial Tranche Rate.

(vii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if, after the Closing Date, the Borrower enters into a Hedging Agreement with respect to all or part of an Advance and the floating interest rate under the Hedging Agreement is Daily Simple SOFR, the Lender may replace the Tranche Rate hereunder with Daily Simple SOFR and a Spread Adjustment without the consent of any other party hereto; provided further that, if subsequent thereto, the Lender and Borrower amend such Hedging Agreement to include, or terminate such Hedging Agreement and enter into a new Hedging Agreement with, a floating interest rate thereunder of Term SOFR, then the Lender may further replace Daily Simple SOFR hereunder with Term SOFR (and a Spread Adjustment, if applicable) hereunder without the consent of any other party hereto; and, in either such event, (A) Daily Simple SOFR or Term SOFR, as applicable, shall be a Successor Rate hereunder, and (B) the Lender shall provide written notice thereof to the Borrower.

(d) Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provisions hereof, if any Law shall make it unlawful for Lender to make, fund or maintain Tranche Rate Loans, Lender shall promptly give notice of such circumstances to Borrower. In such an event, (i) the commitment of Lender to make Tranche Rate Loans, continue Tranche Rate Loans as Tranche rate Loans or convert Reference Rate Loans to Tranche Rate Loans shall be immediately suspended and (ii) all outstanding Tranche Rate Loans shall be converted automatically to Reference Rate Loans on the last day of the Interest Period thereof or at such earlier time as may be required by Law.

(e) Tranche Rate Breakage Fee. Upon (i) any default by Borrower in making any borrowing of, conversion into or conversion of any Tranche Rate Loan following Borrower’s delivery to Lender of any applicable request for a Tranche Rate Loan or Notice of Conversion or (ii) any payment of a Tranche Rate Loan on any day that is not the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto (regardless of the source of such prepayment and whether voluntary, by acceleration or otherwise), Borrower shall promptly pay Lender an amount equal to the amount of any losses, expenses and liabilities (including any loss (including interest paid) in connection with the re-employment of such funds) that Lender sustains as a result of such default or such payment.

(f) Increased Costs. If, after the Closing Date, any Change in Law: (i) shall impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve (including any reserve imposed by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, or any successor thereto, but excluding any reserve included in the determination of the Tranche Rate pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement), special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by Lender, or (ii) shall

impose on Lender any other condition affecting its Tranche Rate Loans, any of its notes issued pursuant hereto (if any) or its obligation to make Tranche Rate Loans; and the result of anything described in these clauses (i) and (ii) above is to increase the cost to (or to impose a cost on) Lender of making or maintaining any Tranche Rate Loan, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by Lender under this Agreement or under any of its notes issued pursuant hereto (if any) with respect thereto, then upon demand by Lender, Borrower shall promptly pay directly to Lender such additional amount as will compensate Lender for such increased cost or such reduction, so long as such amounts have accrued on or after the day that is nine months prior to the date on which Lender first made demand therefor (except that, if the occurrence giving rise to such increased cost or reduction is retroactive, then the nine month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

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

4.05 Fees And Charges.

(a) Closing Fee. Borrower shall pay to Lender a closing fee of $72,500.00, which fee shall be fully earned and payable on the date of disbursement of the initial Loans hereunder. In addition, Borrower shall pay to Lender a closing fee of 0.25% of any increase approved by Lender pursuant to Borrower’s request for a Revolving Loan Limit Increase, which fee shall be fully earned and payable on the date of such Revolving Loan Limit Increase.

(b) Unused Line Fee. Borrower shall pay to Lender an unused line fee of 0.25% per annum of the difference between (i) the Maximum Revolving Loan Limit and (ii) the sum of (A) the average daily balance of the Revolving Loans plus (B) the Letter of Credit Obligations for each month, which fee shall be fully earned by Lender and payable monthly in arrears on the first Business Day of each month. Said fee shall be calculated on the basis of a 360 day year.

(c) Letter of Credit Fee. Borrower shall remit to Lender a Letter of Credit fee equal to the Letter of Credit Fee Amount, which fee shall be payable monthly in arrears on the last Business Day of each month for commercial Letters of Credit and payable in advance at issuance and annually thereafter for standby Letters of Credit. The Letter of Credit Fee shall be calculated on the basis of a 360 day year.

(d) Termination Fee. If, during the term of this Agreement, Borrower (x) prepays all of the Obligations and terminates the Lender’s commitment to make Loans or (y) the Obligations are accelerated under Section 13.02, then Borrower shall pay to Lender as a termination fee, in addition to the payment of all other Obligations, an amount equal to (i) 2.0% of the Facility Amount if such prepayment occurs four years or more prior to the Maturity Date, or (ii) 1.0% of the Facility Amount if such prepayment occurs less than four years, but at least three years prior to the Maturity Date.

(e) Costs and Expenses. Borrower shall reimburse Lender for all reasonable and documented costs and expenses, including expenses and fees of third-party service providers, legal expenses and reasonable and documented attorneys’ fees for outside counsel, incurred by Lender in connection with the (i) documentation and consummation of this transaction, any Bank Product Agreement and any other transactions between Borrower and Lender in connection with any credit, loan or lease provided by Lender to Borrower, including amendments to this Agreement or any Loan Document, Uniform Commercial Code and other public record searches and filings, overnight courier or other express or messenger delivery, appraisal costs, surveys, title insurance and environmental audit or review costs; (ii) collection, protection or enforcement of any rights in or to the Collateral; (iii) collection of any Obligations; (iv) the realization upon, disposition or sale of, any or all of the Collateral; (v) administration, monitoring, processing and servicing of the Loans, the Loan Documents, and the Collateral; and (vi) enforcement of any of Lender’s rights under this Agreement or any other Loan Document (including any costs and expenses of any third party provider engaged by Lender for such purposes). Borrower shall also pay all normal service charges with respect to all accounts maintained by Borrower with Lender and any additional services requested by Borrower from Lender.

(f) Capital Adequacy Charge. If Lender shall have determined that any Change in Law affecting Lender or any lending office of Lender or Lender’s holding company, if any, regarding capital or liquidity requirements, does or shall have the effect of reducing the rate of return on Lender’s (or Lender’s holding company, if any) does or shall have the effect of reducing the rate of return on Lender’s capital as a consequence of this Agreement, Lender’s commitment, the Loans made or Letters of Credit issued by Lender or Lender’s obligations hereunder to a level below that which Lender (or Lender’s holding company, if any) could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration Lender’s policies with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity) by a material amount, then from time to time, after submission by Lender to Borrower of a written demand therefor together with the certificate described below, Borrower shall pay to Lender within ten (10) days of demand such additional amount or amounts as will compensate Lender for such reduction, such written demand to be made promptly following such determination. A certificate of Lender claiming entitlement to payment as set forth above shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. Such certificate shall set forth the nature of the occurrence giving rise to such reduction, the amount of the additional amount or amounts to be paid to Lender, and the method by which such amount was determined. In determining such amount, Lender may use any reasonable averaging and attribution method, applied on a non‑discriminatory basis; provided that if the Lender fails to give such notice within one hundred eighty (180) days after it obtains knowledge of such Change in Law, the Lender shall, with respect to compensation payable pursuant to this Section, only be entitled to payment for costs incurred from and after the date one hundred eighty (180) days prior to the date that the Lender does give such notice. A certificate of Lender claiming entitlement to payment as set forth above shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. Such certificate shall set forth the nature of the occurrence giving rise to such reduction, the amount of the additional amount or amounts to be paid to Lender, and the method by which such amount was determined. In determining such amount, Lender may use any reasonable averaging and attribution method, applied on a non‑discriminatory basis.

4.06 Maximum Interest.

It is the intent of the parties that the rate of interest and other charges to Borrower under the Loan Documents shall be lawful; therefore, if for any reason the interest or other charges payable under this Agreement are found by a court of competent jurisdiction, in a final determination, to exceed the limit which Lender may lawfully charge Borrower, then the obligation to pay interest and other charges shall automatically be reduced to such limit and, if any amount in excess of such limit shall have been paid, then such amount shall be refunded to Borrower.

4.07 Authorization to Make Revolving Loans.

Borrower hereby authorizes Lender, in its sole discretion, to charge any of Borrower’s accounts or advance Revolving Loans to make any payments of principal, interest, fees, costs or expenses required to be made under the Loan Documents.

4.08 Computation of Interest and Fees.

All interest accruing on the outstanding principal amount of the Loans and fees hereunder outstanding from time to time shall be calculated on the basis of actual number of days elapsed in a 360-day year, which results in more interest charged than if interest were calculated based on a 365-day year.

4.09 Taxes.

(a) Any and all payments by Borrower to or on account of any obligation of Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without reduction or withholding for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, provided that, if Borrower shall be required by any applicable law to deduct any Indemnified Taxes (including any Other Taxes) from such payments, then: (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 4.09(a)), Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made; (ii) Borrower shall make such deductions; and (iii) Borrower shall timely pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(b) Without limiting the provisions of Section 4.09(a), Borrower shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(c) Borrower shall indemnify Lender, within ten days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (including Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 4.09) paid by Lender and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to Borrower by Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d) If requested in writing by Lender, Borrower shall deliver to Lender, as soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by Borrower to a

Governmental Authority, the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to Lender.

(e) If Lender receives a refund of any Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by Borrower or with respect to which Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 4.09, it shall pay to Borrower an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by Borrower under this Section 4.09 with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out‑of‑pocket expenses of Lender and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided that Borrower, upon the request of Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to Lender in the event Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This subsection (e) shall not be construed to require Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to Borrower or any other Person.

4.10 Payments Generally.

All payments to be made by the Borrower shall be made without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff.

(b) Distributions. So long as no Default Period then exists, the Borrower shall be entitled to receive any and all dividends, interest or principal in respect of Pledged Collateral provided all such payments received with respect thereto are deposited into an account maintained with Lender to the extent required pursuant to Section 6.1.

At any time, whether or not a Default Period exists, the Lender may (but need not), in the Lender’s name or in Borrower’s name, execute and deliver proof of claim, receive all such monies, endorse checks and other instruments representing payment of such monies, and adjust, litigate, compromise or release any claim against the issuer of any such policy.

Borrower irrevocably hereby makes, constitutes and appoints Lender (and all Persons designated by Lender for that purpose) as Borrower’s true and lawful attorney and agent-in-fact to execute and file such financing statements, documents and other agreements and instruments and do such other acts and things as may be necessary to preserve and perfect Lender’s security interest in the Collateral. Borrower further ratifies and confirms the prior filing by Lender of any and all financing statements which identify Borrower as debtor, Lender as secured party and any or all Collateral as collateral. Upon the request of Lender, Borrower agrees to execute and deliver to Lender Grants of Security Interest in

Trademarks and Patents and Grants of Security Interest in Copyrights for registered trademarks and patents that constitute Collateral, in forms reasonably acceptable to Lender.

(a) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default described in Section 13.01(g), all of the Obligations shall immediately and automatically become due and payable, without notice of any kind. Upon the occurrence of any other Event of Default, all Obligations may, at the option of Lender, and without demand, notice or legal process of any kind, be declared, and immediately shall become, due and payable.

(b) During a Default Period, Lender may exercise from time to time any rights and remedies available to it under the Uniform Commercial Code and any other applicable law in addition to, and not in lieu of, any rights and remedies expressly granted in the Loan Documents and all of Lender’s rights and remedies shall be cumulative and non-exclusive to the extent permitted by law. In particular, but not by way of limitation of the foregoing, Lender may, without notice, demand or legal process of any kind, (i) suspend, terminate or limit any further loans or other extensions of credit under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and/or (ii) take possession of any or all of the Collateral (in addition to Collateral of which it already has possession), wherever it may be found, and for that purpose may pursue the same wherever it may be found, and may enter onto any of Borrower’s premises where any of the Collateral may be, and search for, take possession of, remove, keep and store any of the Collateral until the same shall be sold or otherwise disposed of, and Lender shall have the right to store the same at any of Borrower’s premises without cost to Lender. At Lender’s request, Borrower shall, at Borrower’s expense, assemble the Collateral and make it available to Lender at one or more places to be designated by Lender and reasonably convenient to Lender and Borrower. Borrower recognizes that if Borrower fails to perform, observe or discharge any of its Obligations under the Loan Documents, no remedy at law will provide adequate relief to Lender, and agrees that Lender shall be entitled to temporary and permanent injunctive relief in any such case without the necessity of proving actual damages. Any notification of intended disposition of any of the Collateral required by law will be deemed to be a reasonable authenticated notification of disposition if given at least 10 days prior to such disposition and such notice shall (i) describe Lender and Borrower, (ii) describe the Collateral that is the subject of the intended disposition, (iii) state the method of the intended disposition, (iv) state that Borrower is entitled to an accounting of the Obligations and state the charge, if any, for an accounting and (v) state the time and place of any public disposition or the time after which any private sale is to be made. Lender may disclaim any warranties that might arise in connection with the sale, lease or other disposition of the Collateral and has no obligation to provide any warranties at such time. Any Proceeds of any disposition by Lender of any of the Collateral may be applied by Lender to the payment of expenses in connection with the Collateral, including legal expenses and reasonable attorneys’ fees, and any balance of such Proceeds may be applied by Lender toward the payment of such of the Obligations, and in such order of application, as Lender may from time to time elect.

(c) Without limiting the rights of Lender under applicable law, Lender has a right of set-off, a lien against and a security interest in all property of Borrower now or at any time in Lender’s or any affiliate of Lender’s possession in any capacity whatsoever, including but not limited to any balance of any deposit, trust or agency account, or any other bank account, as security for all Obligations. At any time and from time to time following the occurrence of an Event of Default, or event which, with the passage of time, the giving of notice or both would become an Event of Default, Lender may without notice or demand, set-off and apply or cause to be set-off or otherwise applied any and all deposits at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by Lender or any affiliate of Lender to or for the credit of any one or more of Borrower against the Obligations.

(d) Lender shall have the right, but not the obligation, to continue to extend the Revolving Loans during any Default Period without waiving any Event of Default or the default remedies of Lender and on such terms and conditions as Lender elects in its sole and absolute discretion. Without limitation to any of its default rights and remedies, Lender may elect to

continue to make the Revolving Loans with such a reduced Maximum Revolving Loan Limit and with such reductions in the percentages set forth in the definition of Borrowing Base as Lender determines to be in the interest of Lender.

(e) In addition to all other rights, options and remedies granted or available to Lender under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or otherwise available at law or in equity, upon or at any time during a Default Period or after the occurrence and during the continuance of any event which with the giving of notice or the passage of time, or both, would become an Event of Default, Lender may, in its sole and absolute discretion, (i) withhold or cease making Loans or issuing Letters of Credit, (ii) commence accruing interest on the Loans at a rate up to the Default Rate or (iii) decrease the Maximum Revolving Loan Limit and/or the rates of advance under the Borrowing Base.

13.03 License to Use Intellectual Property.

Lender is hereby granted an irrevocable, non-exclusive license or other right to use, license of sub-license (without payment of royalty or other compensation to any Person) any or all Intellectual Property of the Loan Parties, computer hardware and software, trade secrets, brochures, customer lists, promotional and advertising materials, labels, packaging materials and other Property, in advertising for sale, marketing, selling, collecting, completing manufacture of, or otherwise exercising any rights or remedies with respect to, any Collateral. Each Loan Party’s rights and interests under Intellectual Property shall inure to the Lender’s benefit.

13.04 Commercially Reasonable Sales.

To the extent that applicable law imposes duties on Lender to exercise remedies in a commercially reasonable manner, Borrower acknowledges and agrees that it is not commercially unreasonable for Lender (a) to fail to incur expenses reasonably deemed significant by Lender to prepare Collateral for disposition or otherwise to fail to complete raw material or work in process into finished goods or other finished products for disposition, (b) to fail to obtain third party consents for access to Collateral to be disposed of, or to obtain or, if not required by other law, to fail to obtain governmental or third party consents for the collection or disposition of Collateral to be collected or disposed of, (c) to fail to exercise collection remedies against account debtors or other persons obligated on Collateral or to fail to remove liens or encumbrances on or any adverse claims against Collateral, (d) to exercise collection remedies against account debtors and other persons obligated on Collateral directly or through the use of collection agencies and other collection specialists, (e) to advertise dispositions of Collateral through publications or media of general circulation, whether or not the Collateral is of a specialized nature, (f) to contact other persons, whether or not in the same business as the Borrower, for expressions of interest in acquiring all or any portion of the Collateral, (g) to hire one or more professional auctioneers to assist in the disposition of Collateral, whether or not the collateral is of a specialized nature, (h) to dispose of Collateral by utilizing Internet sites that provide for the auction of assets of the types included in the Collateral or that have the reasonable capability of doing so, or that match buyers and sellers of assets, (i) to dispose of assets in wholesale rather than retail markets, (j) to decline to provide credit to any potential purchaser of the Collateral in connection with Lender’s disposition of the Collateral, (k) to disclaim disposition warranties, (l) to purchase insurance or credit enhancements to insure Lender against risks of loss, collection or disposition of Collateral

or to provide to Lender a guaranteed return from the collection or disposition of Collateral, or (m) to the extent deemed appropriate by Lender, to obtain the services of other brokers, investment bankers, consultants and other professionals to assist Lender in the collection or disposition of any of the Collateral. Borrower acknowledges that the purpose of this Section is to provide non-exhaustive indications of what actions or omissions by Lender would fulfill Lender’s duties under the UCC in Lender’s exercise of remedies against the Collateral and that other actions or omissions by Lender shall not be deemed to fail to fulfill such duties solely on account of not being indicated in this Section. Without limitation upon the foregoing, nothing contained in this Section shall be construed to grant any rights to Borrower or to impose any duties on Lender that would not have been granted or imposed by this Agreement or by applicable law in the absence of this Section.

13.05 Equity Cure.

(a) Subject to the limitations set forth in subsection (e) below, Borrower may cure (and shall be deemed to have cured) an Event of Default arising out of a breach of the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio set forth in Section 12.01 (the “FCCR Covenant”), if Borrower receives the cash proceeds of an investment of Curative Equity (as defined below) within fifteen (15) days of the occurrence of such Event of Default. As used herein, the term “Curative Equity” shall mean equity contributions or other contributions made by the Owners of Holdings in immediately available funds which are immediately remitted by Holdings to Borrower in exchange for Qualified Equity Interests.

(b) Any investment of Curative Equity shall be in an amount that is sufficient to cause the Loan Parties to be in compliance with the FCCR Covenant as of the last day of the most recently ended fiscal quarter calculated for such purpose as if such amount of Curative Equity were additional EBITDA.

(c) As a condition to any such cure, Borrower shall deliver to Lender an updated version of the compliance certificate delivered required to Section 7.02 in respect of the fiscal quarter-end with respect to which Curative Equity is issued, which shall (i) include evidence of Borrower’s receipt of Curative Equity proceeds and (ii) set forth a calculation of the financial results of Borrower at such fiscal quarter-end (including for such purposes the proceeds of such Curative Equity (broken out separately) as, subject to clause (e), deemed EBITDA as if received on such date), which shall confirm that on a pro forma basis after taking into account receipt of the Curative Equity proceeds in the amount specified therein, Borrower would have been in compliance with the FCCR Covenant as of such date.

(d) Upon Borrower’s receipt of such Curative Equity proceeds and satisfaction of the other conditions set forth in this Section 13.05, the Event of Default that would have occurred as a result of a breach of the FCCR Covenant shall be deemed cured with no further action required by Borrower.

(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) (y) Borrower may not exercise the equity cure right under this Section 13.05 more than four (4) times during the term of this Agreement and (z) the Loan Parties may not exercise the cure right under this Section 13.05 more than twice in any twelve (12) consecutive fiscal months, (ii) the amount of Curative Equity permitted hereunder shall not exceed the amount that is sufficient to cause the Loan Parties to be in compliance with

the FCCR Covenant as of the last day of the most recently ended fiscal quarter, as applicable, and (iii) in connection with each exercise of Borrower’s rights under this Section 13.05, Borrower shall be credited with EBITDA in an amount equal to 100% of the amount of Curative Equity received by Borrower in connection with such exercise. To the extent that Curative Equity is received and included in the calculation of the FCCR Covenant as EBITDA for any fiscal quarter, such Curative Equity shall be deemed to be added to EBITDA for purposes of determining compliance with the FCCR Covenant and for purposes of any other calculation of EBITDA for all subsequent periods that include the fiscal quarter for which such proceeds were received.

(f) Provided that the Loan Parties have the right to cure an Event of Default according to the terms of this Section 13.05 and have provided the Lender with notice of their intention to do so, the Lender shall not exercise any right to accelerate the Loans, terminate the Commitments, or exercise any right to foreclose or take possession of the Collateral solely on the basis of an Event of Default having occurred and being continuing resulting from a breach of the FCCR Covenant, until the expiration of the fifteen (15) day time period set forth in Section 13.05(a).
