All pronouns should be construed as referring to the masculine, feminine and neutral gender.

2.1 Term Loan Commitments. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, each Lender severally, and not jointly, agrees to make term loans to the Credit Parties, on the Initial Draw Date and on not more than two additional occasions during the Availability Period, in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed such Lender’s Term Loan Commitment.

Each Lender shall make each Term Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, or such earlier time as may be reasonably practicable, to the account of the Administrative Agent most recently designated by it for that purpose by notice to the Lenders.

(b)Defaulting Lenders. Unless the Administrative Agent receives notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Term Loans that the Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent its share of the Term Loans, the Administrative Agent may assume that each Lender has made its share available on that date in accordance with Section 2.3(a) and may, in reliance upon that assumption, make available to the Credit Parties a corresponding amount. If a Lender (each a “Defaulting Lender”) has not in fact made its share of the applicable Term Loans available to the Administrative Agent, then the Defaulting Lender and the Credit Parties severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith upon written demand a corresponding amount (the “Default Advance”) with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date the funds are made available to the Credit Parties to but excluding the date of repayment of the Default Advance to the Administrative Agent, at (1) in the case of a Defaulting Lender, the Prime Rate or (2) in the case of the Credit Parties the rate of 12% per annum.

So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing as of any Interest Payment Date, any interest payable hereunder shall automatically accrue and be capitalized to the principal amount of the Term Loans on the applicable Interest Payment Date, and shall, unless paid in cash on or prior to the applicable Interest Payment Date, thereafter be deemed to be a part of the principal amount of the Term Loans (“PIK Interest”). PIK Interest shall not serve to reduce the availability of any unused Term Loan Commitments.

2.5 Use of Proceeds.

(a)Working Capital.

(b)Register. The Administrative Agent (or its agent or sub-agent appointed by it) shall maintain a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of Lenders and the Term Loans of each Lender outstanding from time to time (the “Register”). The Register shall be available for inspection by any Credit Party or Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. The Administrative Agent shall record, or shall cause to be recorded, in the Register the Term Loans of each Lender in accordance with the provisions of

Section 9.5, and each repayment or prepayment in respect of the principal amount of the Term Loans, which shall be conclusive and binding on the Credit Parties and each Lender, absent manifest error; provided, that failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation, shall not affect any Lender’s Term Loan Commitments or any Credit Party’s Obligations in respect of any Term Loan.

The parties hereto acknowledge that the Yield Protection shall survive acceleration of the Obligations and/or the occurrence of any Insolvency Proceeding, and shall automatically accrue to the principal amount of the Term Loans and shall constitute part of the Obligations for all purposes herein. If the Term Loans are accelerated for any reason pursuant to the terms herein, the Yield Protection shall be calculated as if the date of acceleration of the Term Loans was the date of prepayment of the Term Loans. THE BORROWERS EXPRESSLY WAIVE THE PROVISIONS OF ANY PRESENT OR FUTURE STATUTE OR LAW THAT PROHIBITS OR MAY PROHIBIT THE COLLECTION OF THE FOREGOING YIELD PROTECTION IN CONNECTION WITH ANY ACCELERATION. The Borrowers expressly agree that: (A) the Yield Protection is reasonable and is the product of an arm's length transaction between sophisticated business people, ably represented by counsel; (B) the Yield Protection shall be payable notwithstanding the then prevailing market rates at the time payment is made; (C) there has been a course of conduct between Lenders and Borrowers giving specific consideration in this transaction for such agreement to pay the Yield Protection; (D) Borrowers shall be estopped hereafter from claiming differently than as agreed to in this paragraph; (E) their agreement to pay the Yield Protection is a material inducement to Lenders to extend the Term Loans; and (F) the Yield

Protection represents a good faith, reasonable estimate and calculation of the lost profits or damages of Lenders and that it would be impractical and extremely difficult to ascertain the actual amount of damages to Lenders or profits lost by Lenders as a result of such event triggering payment of the Yield Protection.

2.9 Fees.

(a)Set-Up. Concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, AFHI will issue to the Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages, a fee (the “Set-Up Fee”) payable in the form of 2,750,000 shares of AFHI Common Stock (the “Set-Up Fee Shares”) in accordance with delivery instructions previously provided by the Lenders. The Set-Up Fee Shares shall, when issued, be fully paid and non-assessable and shall not be subject to any Lien or restriction on transfer other than restrictions arising by operation of law or included in AFHI’s Organization Documents. The Set-Up Fee shall be fully earned and payable on the Closing Date.

Concurrently with the funding of each Delayed-Draw Loan, if any, AFHI will issue to the Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages, a fee (the “Delayed Draw Fee”) payable in the form of 1,125,000 shares of AFHI Common Stock (the “Draw Fee Shares”) in accordance with delivery instructions provided by the Lender.

The Delayed Draw Fee shall be fully earned on the date of issuance of each Delayed-Draw Loan, and payable together with the issuance of each Delayed-Draw Loan.

During the period commencing on the Closing Date and ending when all of the Obligations have been indefeasibly satisfied and discharged, the Credit Parties shall pay to the Administrative Agent an annual administrative fee of $20,000, payable in quarterly installments of $5,000 each, in arrears on the last Business Day of each calendar quarter and on demand from and after the Maturity Date.

2.10 Joint and Several Obligations.

(a)Consideration. Each Credit Party is accepting joint and several liability hereunder and the other Credit Document to which it is a party in consideration of the financial accommodation to be provided by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, for the mutual benefit, directly and indirectly, of each of the Credit Parties and in consideration of the undertakings of each of the Credit Parties to accept joint and several liability for the obligations of each of them.

(b)Acceptance of Liability. Each of the Credit Parties jointly and severally hereby irrevocably and unconditionally accepts, not merely as a surety but also as a co-debtor, joint and several liability with the other Credit Parties with respect to the payment and performance of all of the Obligations arising under this Agreement, the other Credit Documents and any other documents relating to the Obligations, it being the intention of the parties hereto that all the

Obligations shall be the joint and several obligations of each of the Credit Parties without preferences or distinction among them.

(c)Fair Share Payments. All of the Credit Parties desire to allocate among themselves, in a fair and equitable manner, their liabilities and obligations arising under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents. Accordingly, in the event any payment or distribution is made on any date by a Credit Party (the “Funding Credit Party”) under this Agreement or any other Credit Document such that its Aggregate Payments exceeds its Fair Share as of that date (other than payments made in the form of AFHI Common Stock), the Funding Credit Party shall be entitled to a contribution from each of the other Credit Parties in an amount sufficient to cause each Credit Party’s Aggregate Payments to equal its Fair Share as of that date. The amounts payable as contributions hereunder shall be determined as of the date on which the related payment or distribution is made by the applicable Funding Credit Party. The allocation among the Credit Parties of their obligations as set forth in this Section 2.10 shall not be construed in any way to limit the liability of any Credit Party hereunder. Each Credit Party is a third party beneficiary to the contribution agreement set forth in this Section 2.10.

3.1 Regulatory Changes.

(a)Additional Costs. The Credit Parties shall pay directly to each Lender from time to time such amounts as the Lender may reasonably determine to be necessary to compensate it for any costs or any reductions in the amounts receivable by the Lender hereunder (“Additional Costs”) which the Lender determines are attributable to its making, maintaining, or its obligation to make any Term Loans hereunder, resulting from any Regulatory Change which:

(1)changes the basis of taxation of any amounts payable to the Lender under this Agreement (other than taxes imposed on the overall net income of the Lender or Excluded Taxes);

(2)imposes or modifies any reserve, special deposit or similar requirements relating to any extensions of credit or other assets of, or any deposits with or other liabilities of the Lender; or

(3)imposes any other condition affecting this Agreement or any of the extensions of credit or liabilities referred to in (2) above.

Each Lender will notify the Credit Parties and the Administrative Agent of any event occurring after the date of this Agreement which will entitle it to compensation pursuant to this Section 3.1(a) as promptly as practicable after it obtains knowledge thereof and determines to request such compensation and will furnish the Credit Parties with a certificate setting forth in reasonable detail the basis and the calculation of the amount of each request for compensation. If a Lender requests compensation, the Credit Parties may, by notice to the Lender and the Administrative Agent, suspend the obligation of the Lender to make additional Term Loans until

the earlier of (A) the Lender's waiver of its request for compensation or (B) the date on which the Regulatory Change giving rise to the Lender’s request ceases to be in effect. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 3.1, (i) the Credit Parties shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section 3.1 for any amounts incurred more than nine (9) months prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Credit Parties of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor and such compensation shall not exceed $200,000 during the term of this Agreement.

(b)Lender Determinations.

3.2 Capital Adequacy.

(a)Revised Requirements. If at any time after the date of this Agreement any Regulatory Change, in the reasonable opinion of any Lender, will require that its Commitment (or any portion thereof) be treated as an asset or otherwise be included for purposes of calculating the appropriate amount of capital or equity to be maintained by it or any corporation controlling it and such Regulatory Change will have the effect of reducing the rate of return on its or its controlling corporation's capital or equity, as the case may be, as a consequence of the Lender's obligations hereunder to a level below that which the Lender or its controlling corporation, as the case may be, could have achieved but for such Regulatory Change (taking into account the Lender's or controlling corporation's policies, as the case may be, with respect to capital adequacy and any payments made to the Lender pursuant to Section 3.1 which relate to capital adequacy and assuming that the Lender's capital was fully utilized prior to the Regulatory Change) by an amount deemed in good faith by the Lender to be material, then from time to time following notice of the Regulatory Change by the Lender to the Credit Parties through the Administrative Agent within five (5) days after demand by the Lender through the Administrative Agent, the Credit Parties shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Lender, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate the Lender or controlling corporation, as the case may be, for the reduction.

(b)Lender Certificates. If any Lender becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this Section 3.2, it shall promptly notify the Credit Parties through the Administrative Agent of the occurrence by reason of which it has become so entitled, but in any event within 45 days, after the Lender obtains actual knowledge thereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 3.2, (i) the Credit Parties shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section 3.2 for any amounts incurred more than nine (9) months prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Credit Parties of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor and such compensation shall not exceed $200,000 during the term of this Agreement.

(b)Payment of Taxes. If any Credit Party or any other Person is required by law to make any deduction or withholding on account of any such Tax from any sum paid or payable by any Credit Party to the Administrative Agent or any Lender under any of the Credit Documents: (1) the Credit Parties shall notify the Administrative Agent of any such requirement or any change in any such requirement as soon as any of them becomes aware of it; and (2) in the case of any Indemnified Tax, (i) the Credit Parties shall pay any such Indemnified Tax before the date on which penalties attach thereto, such payment to be made (if the liability to pay is imposed on a Credit Party) for its own account or (if that liability is imposed on the Administrative Agent or the applicable Lender, as the case may be) on behalf of and in the name of the Administrative Agent or the applicable Lender; (ii) the sum payable by the Credit Parties in respect of which the relevant deduction, withholding or payment is required shall be increased to the extent necessary to ensure that, after the making of that deduction, withholding or payment, the Administrative Agent or the applicable Lender, as the case may be, receives on the due date a net sum equal to what it would have received had no such deduction, withholding or payment been required or made; and (iii) within 30 days after paying any sum from which it is required by law to make any deduction or withholding, and within thirty days after the due date of payment of any Tax which it is required by this clause (2) to pay, the Credit Parties shall deliver to the Administrative Agent evidence satisfactory to the other affected parties of the deduction, withholding or payment and of the remittance thereof to the relevant taxing or other authority

3.4 Obligation to Mitigate. Each Lender agrees that, as promptly as practicable after the officer of the Lender responsible for administering its Term Loans becomes aware of the occurrence of an event or the existence of a condition that would entitle the Lender to receive payments under Section 3.1, 3.2 or 3.3, it will, to the extent not inconsistent with its internal policies and any applicable legal or regulatory restrictions, use reasonable efforts to (a) make, issue, fund or maintain its Term Loans, through another office, or (b) take such other measures as such Lender may deem reasonable, if as a result thereof the additional amounts which would

otherwise be required to be paid to that Lender pursuant to Section 3.1, 3.2 or 3.3 would be materially reduced and if, as determined by the Lender in its sole discretion, the making, issuing, funding or maintaining of the Term Loans through another office or in accordance with such other measures, as the case may be, would not otherwise adversely affect the Lender’s Term Loans or the interests of the Lender; provided, that the Lender will not be obligated to utilize another office pursuant to this Section 3.4 unless the Credit Parties agree to pay all incremental expenses incurred by the Lender as a result thereof. A certificate as to the amount of any expenses payable by the pursuant to this Section 3.4 submitted by the Lenders to the Credit Parties (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

None of the Credit Parties is engaged in any unfair labor practice that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. There is (a) no unfair labor practice complaint pending against any Credit Party, or to the best knowledge of the Credit Parties, threatened against any of them before the National Labor Relations Board and no grievance or arbitration proceeding arising out of or under any collective bargaining agreement that is so pending against any Credit Party or to the best knowledge of the Credit Parties, threatened against any of them, (b) no strike or work stoppage in existence or threatened involving any Credit Party, and (c) to the best knowledge of the Credit Parties, no union representation question existing with respect to the employees of any Credit Party and, to the best knowledge of the Credit Parties, no union organization activity that is taking place, except (with respect to any matter specified in clause (a), (b) or (c) above, either individually or in the aggregate) such as is not reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect. The consummation of the Plan will not give rise to any right of termination, right of renegotiation or any other right under any collective bargaining agreement or Multiemployer Plan to which any Credit Party is bound.

5.19 Employee Benefit Plans.

The Credit Parties, each of its Subsidiaries and each of their respective ERISA Affiliates are in compliance with all applicable provisions and requirements of ERISA and the Internal Revenue Code and the regulations and published interpretations thereunder with respect to each Employee Benefit Plan, and have performed all their obligations under each Employee Benefit Plan , except, in each case, where the failure to comply or perform would not reasonably be expected to result in liabilities of the Credit Parties in excess of $150,000 in the aggregate or have Material Adverse Effect. Each Employee Benefit Plan which is intended to qualify under Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code has received a favorable determination letter from the Internal Revenue Service indicating that such Employee Benefit Plan is so qualified and nothing has occurred subsequent to the issuance of such determination letter which would cause such Employee Benefit Plan to lose its qualified status. No liability to the PBGC (other than required premium payments), the Internal Revenue Service, any Employee Benefit Plan (other than routine contributions) or any trust established under Title IV of ERISA (other than routine contributions) has been or is expected to be incurred by any Credit Party or any of their ERISA Affiliates, which would, when taken together with all such liabilities, exceed $150,000 in the aggregate for the Credit Parties or which would reasonably be expected to have Material Adverse Effect. No ERISA Event has occurred or is reasonably expected to occur that, when taken together with all such ERISA Events, would exceed $150,000 in the aggregate for the Credit Parties or would reasonably be expected to have Material Adverse Effect. Except to the extent required under Section 4980B of the Internal Revenue Code or similar state laws and to the extent an employee became entitled to benefits prior to his or her termination of employment

(e.g., severance, long term disability benefits, etc.), no Employee Benefit Plan provides health or welfare benefits (through the purchase of insurance or otherwise) for any retired or former employee of any Credit Party or any of their respective ERISA Affiliates. The present value of the aggregate benefit liabilities under each Pension Plan sponsored, maintained or contributed to by any Credit Party or any of their ERISA Affiliates (determined as of the end of the most recent plan year on the basis of the actuarial assumptions specified for funding purposes in the most recent actuarial valuation for such Pension Plan), did not exceed the aggregate current value of the assets of such Pension Plan. As of the most recent valuation date for each Multiemployer Plan for which the actuarial report is available, the potential liability of the Credit Parties, its Subsidiaries and their respective ERISA Affiliates for a complete withdrawal from such Multiemployer Plan (within the meaning of Section 4203 of ERISA), when aggregated with such potential liability for a complete withdrawal from all Multiemployer Plans, based on information available pursuant to Section 4221(e) of ERISA is zero. Each Credit Party and each of their ERISA Affiliates have complied with the requirements of Section 515 of ERISA with respect to each Multiemployer Plan and are not in material “default” (as defined in Section 4219(c)(5) of ERISA) with respect to payments to a Multiemployer Plan.

5.20 Certain Fees.

No broker’s or finder’s fee or commission will be payable with respect to the transactions contemplated by the Credit Documents, except as payable to the Administrative the Administrative Agent and the Lenders,

Each Credit Party is in compliance with all applicable statutes, regulations and orders of, and all applicable restrictions imposed by, all Governmental Authorities, in respect of the conduct of its business and the ownership of its property, except such noncompliance that, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

5.22 Anti-terrorism laws. No Credit Party and no Subsidiary, and none of their Affiliates (i) is in violation of any Anti-Terrorism Law, or (ii) is a Blocked Person, or is controlled by a Blocked Person. No Credit Party and no Subsidiary, and none of their Affiliates, (A) conducts any business or engages in making or receiving any contribution of funds, goods or services to or for the benefit of any Blocked Person, or (B) deals in any property or interest in property blocked pursuant to Executive Order No. 13224, any similar executive order or other Anti-Terrorism Law. No part of the proceeds of any Term Loan will be used directly or indirectly for any payments to any government official or employee, political party, official of a political party, candidate for political office, or anyone else acting in an official capacity, in order to obtain, retain or direct business or obtain any improper advantage, in violation of the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977.

5.23 Sanctions; Anti-Corruption.

(a)None of the Credit Parties, any of their Subsidiaries or any director, officer, employee, agent, or Affiliate of any Credit Party or any of its Subsidiaries is an individual or

entity (“person”) that is, or is owned or controlled by persons that are: (i) the subject of any sanctions administered or enforced by OFAC, the U.S. Department of State, the United Nations Security Council, the European Union, Her Majesty’s Treasury, or other relevant sanctions authority (collectively, “Sanctions”), or (ii) located, organized or resident in a country or territory that is, or whose government is, the subject of Sanctions (including Crimea, Cuba, Iran, North Korea and Syria).

(b)The Credit Parties, their Subsidiaries and their respective directors, officers and employees, and the agents of the Credit Parties and their Subsidiaries, are in compliance with all applicable Sanctions and with the FCPA and any other applicable anti-corruption law, in all material respects. The Credit Parties and their Subsidiaries have instituted and maintain policies and procedures designed to ensure continued compliance with applicable Sanctions, the FCPA and any other applicable anti-corruption laws.

No representation or warranty of any Credit Party contained in any Credit Document or in any other documents, certificates or written statements furnished to the Administrative Agent or Lender by or on behalf of any Credit Party for use in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby contains any untrue statement of a material fact (known to the Credit Parties, in the case of any document not furnished by it) or omits to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained herein or therein not misleading in light of the circumstances in which the same were made, except for the possible adjustment to the Historical Financial Statements resulting from the matters described on Schedule 5.7.

As of the date hereof, there are no facts known (or which should upon the reasonable exercise of diligence be known) to the Credit Parties (other than matters of a general economic nature) that, individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect and that have not been disclosed herein or in such other documents, certificates and statements furnished to Lenders for use in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby

portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made, in same day funds (in the currency so received), together with interest thereon (except to the extent waived in writing by the Administrative Agent) in respect of each day from and including the date such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Payment Recipient to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent in same day funds at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect. A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Payment Recipient under this clause (a) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

(b)Without limiting immediately preceding clause (a), each Lender Secured Party or any Person who has received funds on behalf of a Lender or Secured Party (and each of their respective successors and assigns), agrees that if it receives a payment, prepayment or repayment (whether received as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise) from the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) (x) that is in a different amount than, or on a different date from, that specified in this Agreement or in a notice of payment, prepayment or repayment sent by the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such payment, prepayment or repayment, (y) that was not preceded or accompanied by a notice of payment, prepayment or repayment sent by the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates), or (z) that such Lender or Secured Party, or other such recipient, otherwise becomes aware was transmitted, or received, in error or by mistake (in whole or in part), then in each such case:

(i)it acknowledges and agrees that (A) in the case of immediately preceding clauses (x) or (y), an error and mistake shall be presumed to have been made (absent written confirmation from the Administrative Agent to the contrary) or (B) an error and mistake has been made (in the case of immediately preceding clause (z)), in each case, with respect to such payment, prepayment or repayment; and

(ii)such Lender or Secured Party shall (and shall cause any other recipient that receives funds on its respective behalf to) promptly (and, in all events, within two (2) Business Days of its knowledge of the occurrence of any of the circumstances described in immediately preceding clauses (x), (y) and (z)) notify the Administrative Agent of its receipt of such payment, prepayment or repayment, the details thereof (in reasonable detail) and that it is so notifying the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 8.14(b).

For the avoidance of doubt, the failure to deliver a notice to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 8.14(b) shall not have any effect on a Payment Recipient’s

obligations pursuant to Section 8.14(a) or on whether or not an Erroneous Payment has been made.

(c)Each Lender, Issuing Bank or Secured Party hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off, net and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender, Issuing Bank or Secured Party under any Credit Document, or otherwise payable or distributable by the Administrative Agent to such Lender, Issuing Bank or Secured Party under any Credit Document with respect to any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts, against any amount that the Administrative Agent has demanded to be returned under immediately preceding clause (a).

(d)(i) In the event that an Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered by the Administrative Agent for any reason, after demand therefor in accordance with immediately preceding clause (a), from any Lender that has received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) (and/or from any Payment Recipient who received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) on its respective behalf) (such unrecovered amount, an “Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency”), upon the Administrative Agent’s notice to such Lender at any time, then effective immediately (with the consideration therefor being acknowledged by the parties hereto), (A) such Lender shall be deemed to have assigned its Loans (but not its Commitments) with respect to which such Erroneous Payment was made (the “Erroneous Payment Impacted Class”) in an amount equal to the Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency (or such lesser amount as the Administrative Agent may specify) (such assignment of the Loans (but not Commitments) of the Erroneous Payment Impacted Class, the “Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment”) (on a cashless basis and such amount calculated at par plus any accrued and unpaid interest), and is hereby (together with the Borrowers) deemed to execute and deliver an Assignment and Assumption with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, and such Lender shall deliver any Notes evidencing such Loans to the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent (but the failure of such Person to deliver any such Notes shall not affect the effectiveness of the foregoing assignment), (B) the Administrative Agent as the assignee Lender shall be deemed to have acquired the Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, (C) upon such deemed acquisition, the Administrative Agent as the assignee Lender shall become a Lender, as applicable, hereunder with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment and the assigning Lender shall cease to be a Lender, as applicable, hereunder with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, its obligations under the indemnification provisions of this Agreement and its applicable Commitments which shall survive as to such assigning Lender, (D) the Administrative Agent shall each be deemed to have waived any consents required under this Agreement to any such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, and (E) the Administrative Agent will reflect in the Register its ownership interest in the Loans subject to the Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment. For the avoidance of doubt, no Erroneous

Payment Deficiency Assignment will reduce the Commitments of any Lender and such Commitments shall remain available in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(ii) Subject to Section 9.5 (but excluding, in all events, any assignment consent or approval requirements), the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion, sell any Loans acquired pursuant to an Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment and upon receipt of the proceeds of such sale, the Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency owing by the applicable Lender shall be reduced by the net proceeds of the sale of such Loan (or portion thereof), and the Administrative Agent shall retain all other rights, remedies and claims against such Lender (and/or against any recipient that receives funds on its respective behalf). In addition, an Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency owing by the applicable Lender (x) shall be reduced by the proceeds of prepayments or repayments of principal and interest, or other distribution in respect of principal and interest, received by the Administrative Agent on or with respect to any such Loans acquired from such Lender pursuant to an Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment (to the extent that any such Loans are then owned by the Administrative Agent) and (y) may, in the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent, be reduced by any amount specified by the Administrative Agent in writing to the applicable Lender from time to time.

(e)The parties hereto agree that (x) irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent may be equitably subrogated, in the event that an Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered from any Payment Recipient that has received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) for any reason, the Administrative Agent shall be subrogated to all the rights and interests of such Payment Recipient (and, in the case of any Payment Recipient who has received funds on behalf of a Lender, Issuing Bank or Secured Party, to the rights and interests of such Lender, Issuing Bank or Secured Party, as the case may be) under the Credit Documents with respect to such amount (the “Erroneous Payment Subrogation Rights”) (provided that the Loan Parties’ Obligations under the Credit Documents in respect of the Erroneous Payment Subrogation Rights shall not be duplicative of such Obligations in respect of Loans that have been assigned to the Administrative Agent under an Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment) and (y) an Erroneous Payment shall not pay, prepay, repay, discharge or otherwise satisfy any Obligations owed by the Borrower or any other Loan Party; provided that this Section 8.14(e) shall not be interpreted to increase (or accelerate the due date for), or have the effect of increasing (or accelerating the due date for), the Obligations of the Borrowers relative to the amount (and/or timing for payment) of the Obligations that would have been payable had such Erroneous Payment not been made by the Administrative Agent; provided, further, that for the avoidance of doubt, immediately preceding clauses (x) and (y) shall not apply to the extent any such Erroneous Payment is, and solely with respect to the amount of such Erroneous Payment that is, comprised of funds received by the Administrative Agent from the Borrowers for the purpose of making such Erroneous Payment.

(f)To the extent permitted by applicable law, no Payment Recipient shall assert any right or claim to an Erroneous Payment, and hereby waives, and is deemed to waive, any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by the Administrative Agent for the return of any Erroneous Payment received, including, without limitation, any defense based on “discharge for value” or any similar doctrine.

(g)Each party’s obligations, agreements and waivers under this Section 8.14 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent, any transfer of rights or obligations by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and/or the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Obligations (or any portion thereof) under any Credit Document.

9.1 Notices.

    All notices, requests and demands to or upon the respective parties hereto to be effective shall be in writing (including by electronic mail), and, unless otherwise expressly provided herein, shall be deemed to have been duly given or made when delivered, or three Business Days after being deposited in the mail, postage prepaid, or, in the case of electronic mail notice, when received, addressed as follows in the case of the Credit Parties and the Administrative Agent, and in the case of the Lenders, as set forth on the signature pages hereto, or to such other address as may be hereafter notified by the respective parties hereto:

No notice to or demand on the Borrower in any case shall entitle the Borrower to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.

9.2 Expenses.

(a) Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby shall be consummated, the Credit Parties agrees to pay promptly (a) all the actual and reasonable costs and expenses

(including reasonable and documented out-of-pocket attorneys’ fees and expenses) of the Administrative Agent in connection with (1) the negotiation, preparation and execution of the Credit Documents, (2) the administration of the Credit Documents, (3) with any consents, amendments, waivers or other modifications to the Credit Documents and any other documents or matters requested by the Credit Parties, (b) all the costs of furnishing all opinions by counsel for the Credit Parties; (c) all the actual costs and reasonable expenses of creating, perfecting and recording Liens in favor of the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, including filing and recording fees, expenses and taxes, stamp or documentary taxes, search fees, title insurance premiums and reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of counsel to the Administrative Agent and of counsel providing any opinions that the Administrative Agent or Requisite Lenders may request in respect of the Collateral or the Liens created pursuant to the Collateral Documents; (d) all the actual costs and reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of any auditors, accountants, consultants or appraisers (provided, that, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, no more than one such third party appraiser, consultant, or advisor shall be retained on behalf the Administrative Agent and the Lenders without the prior written consent of the Credit Parties); and (e) after the occurrence and continuance of a Default or an Event of Default, all costs and expenses, including reasonable and documented out-of-pocket attorneys’ fees and costs of settlement, incurred by external counsel to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in enforcing any Obligations of or in collecting any payments due from any Credit Party hereunder or under the other Credit Documents by reason of such Default or Event of Default (including in connection with the sale, lease or license of, collection from, or other realization upon any of the Collateral or the enforcement of the Guaranty) or in connection with any refinancing or restructuring of the credit arrangements provided hereunder in the nature of a “workout” or pursuant to any insolvency or bankruptcy cases or proceedings.

9.3 Indemnity.

(a)Indemnification. In addition to the payment of expenses pursuant to Section 9.2, whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby shall be consummated, each Credit Party agrees to defend (subject to Indemnitees’ selection of counsel), indemnify, pay and hold harmless, the Administrative Agent and each Lender and the officers, partners, members, directors, trustees, advisors, employees, agents, sub-agents and Affiliates of the Administrative Agent and each Lender (each, an “Indemnitee”), from and against any and all Indemnified Liabilities; provided, that (1) no Credit Party shall have any obligation to any Indemnitee hereunder with respect to any Indemnified Liabilities to the extent such Indemnified Liabilities arise from the gross negligence, fraud or willful misconduct of that Indemnitee, in each case, as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction, and (2) no Credit Party shall be liable for any settlement of any claim or proceeding effected by any Indemnitee without the prior written consent of the Credit Parties (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), but if settled with such consent or if there shall be a final judgment against an Indemnitee, each of the Credit Parties shall indemnify and hold harmless such Indemnitees from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment in the manner set forth in this Agreement. To the extent that the undertakings to defend, indemnify, pay and hold harmless set forth in this Section 9.3 may be unenforceable in whole or in part because they are violative of any law or public policy, the applicable Credit Party shall

contribute the maximum portion that it is permitted to pay and satisfy under applicable law to the payment and satisfaction of all Indemnified Liabilities incurred by Indemnitees or any of them.

(b)Waiver of Claims. To the extent permitted by applicable law, no Credit Party shall assert, and each Credit Party hereby waives, any claim against each Lender and the Administrative Agent and their respective Affiliates, directors, employees, attorneys, agents or sub-agents, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) (whether or not the claim therefor is based on contract, tort or duty imposed by any applicable legal requirement) arising out of, in connection with, arising out of, as a result of, or in any way related to, this Agreement or any Credit Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby or referred to herein or therein, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof or any act or omission or event occurring in connection therewith, and the Credit Parties hereby waives, releases and agrees not to sue upon any such claim or any such damages, whether or not accrued and whether or not known or suspected to exist in its favor.

Any waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which it was given. No notice to or demand on any Credit Party in any case shall entitle any Credit Party to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.

This Agreement shall be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and the successors and permitted assigns of Lenders.

The date of such recordation of a transfer shall be referred to herein as the “Assignment Effective Date.” Any request, authority or consent of any Person who, at the time of making such request or giving such authority or consent, is listed in the Register as a Lender shall be conclusive and binding on any subsequent holder, assignee or transferee of the corresponding Term Commitments or Term Loans.

(c)Right to Assign. Each Lender shall have the right at any time to sell, assign or transfer all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement, including all or a portion of its Term Commitment or Term Loans owing to it or other Obligations upon obtaining to an Eligible Assignee; provided that each assignment shall be (1) in an amount of not less than $250,000, and (2) of a uniform, and not varying, percentage of all rights and obligations under and in respect of any applicable Term Loan and any related Term Commitments), Assignments and assumptions of Loans and Term Commitments shall only be effected by manual execution and delivery to the Administrative Agent of an Assignment Agreement.

(d)Assignee Representations. Each Lender, upon execution and delivery hereof or upon succeeding to an interest in the Term Commitments and Term Loans, as the case may be, represents and warrants as of the Closing Date or as of the Assignment Effective Date that (1) it is an Eligible Assignee; (2) it has experience and expertise in the making of or investing in commitments or loans such as the applicable Term Commitments or Term Loans; and (3) it will make or invest in Term Commitments or Term Loans for its own account in the ordinary course and without a view to distribution of thereof within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act or other federal securities laws.

(e)Effect of Assignment.

9.7 Independence of Covenants.

(a) All covenants hereunder shall be given independent effect so that if a particular action or condition is not permitted by any of such covenants, the fact that it would be permitted by an exception to, or would otherwise be within the limitations of, another covenant shall not avoid the occurrence and continuance of a Default or an Event of Default if such action is taken or condition exists.

Any forbearance or failure to exercise, and any delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall not impair any such right, power or remedy or be construed to be a waiver thereof, nor shall it preclude the further exercise of any such right, power or remedy.

9.11 Severability.

(a) In case any provision in or obligation hereunder or under any other Credit Document shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions or obligations, or of such provision or obligation in any other jurisdiction, shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

9.12 Obligations Several; Independent Nature of Lenders’ Rights.

(a) The obligations of Lenders hereunder are several and no Lender shall be responsible for the obligations or Commitment of any other Lender hereunder.

(a) The Administrative Agent and each Lender shall hold all nonpublic information regarding the Credit Parties and their businesses identified as such by the Credit Parties and obtained by the Administrative Agent or the Lender pursuant to the requirements hereof in accordance with the Administrative Agent’s and the Lender’s customary procedures for handling confidential information of such nature, it being understood and agreed by the Credit Parties that, in any event, the Administrative Agent may disclose non-public information to the Lenders and the Administrative Agent and each Lender may make (a) disclosures of that information to its Affiliates and to their respective agents and advisors (and to other Persons authorized by a Lender or the Administrative Agent to organize, present or disseminate such information in connection with disclosures otherwise made in accordance with this Section 9.17), (b) disclosures of information reasonably required by any bona fide or potential assignee, pledgee, transferee or participant in connection with the contemplated assignment, pledge, transfer or participation of any Loans or any participations therein or by any direct or indirect contractual counterparties (or the professional advisors thereto) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to the Credit Parties and their obligations (provided, such assignees, pledgees, transferees, participants, counterparties and advisors are advised of and agree to be bound by either the provisions of this Section 9.18 or other provisions at least as restrictive as this Section 9.17), (c) disclosure to any rating agency when required by it, provided that, prior to any disclosure, the rating agency shall undertake in writing to preserve the confidentiality of any confidential information relating to the Credit Parties received by it from any of the Administrative Agent or any Lender, and (d) disclosures required or requested by any governmental agency or representative thereof or by the NAIC or pursuant to legal or judicial process; provided, unless specifically prohibited by applicable law or court order, each Lender and the Administrative Agent shall make reasonable efforts to notify the Credit Parties of any request by any governmental agency or representative thereof (other than any request in connection with any examination of the financial condition or other routine examination of a Lender by such governmental agency) for disclosure of any nonpublic information prior to the disclosure thereof. In addition, the Administrative Agent and each Lender may disclose the existence of this Agreement and the information about this Agreement to market data collectors, similar services providers to the lending industry, and service providers to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in connection with the administration and management of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents.

degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.

9.18 Usury Savings Clause.

(a) Notwithstanding any other provision herein, the aggregate interest rate charged with respect to any of the Obligations, including all charges or fees in connection therewith deemed in the nature of interest under applicable law shall not exceed the Highest Lawful Rate. If the rate of interest (determined without regard to the preceding sentence) under this Agreement at any time exceeds the Highest Lawful Rate, the outstanding amount of the Loans made hereunder shall bear interest at the Highest Lawful Rate until the total amount of interest due hereunder equals the amount of interest which would have been due hereunder if the stated rates of interest set forth in this Agreement had at all times been in effect. In addition, if when the Loans made hereunder are repaid in full the total interest due hereunder (taking into account the increase provided for above) is less than the total amount of interest which would have been due hereunder if the stated rates of interest set forth in this Agreement had at all times been in effect, then to the extent permitted by law, the Credit Parties shall pay to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to the difference between the amount of interest paid and the amount of interest which would have been paid if the Highest Lawful Rate had at all times been in effect. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is the intention of Lenders and the Credit Parties to conform strictly to any applicable usury laws. Accordingly, if any Lender contracts for, charges, or receives any consideration which constitutes interest in excess of the Highest Lawful Rate, then any such excess shall be cancelled automatically and, if previously paid, shall at such Lender’s option be applied to the outstanding amount of the Loans made hereunder or be refunded to the Credit Parties.

9.19 Counterparts.

(a) This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed an original, but all such counterparts together shall constitute but one and the same instrument.

9.20 Effectiveness.

(a) This Agreement shall become effective upon the execution of a counterpart hereof by each of the parties hereto and receipt by the Credit Parties and the Administrative Agent of written or telephonic notification of such execution and authorization of delivery thereof.

9.21 Patriot Act. Each Lender and the Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies each Credit Party that pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each Credit Party, which information includes the name and address of each Credit Party and other

information that will allow the Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify each Credit Party in accordance with the Patriot Act.

9.22 Electronic Execution of Assignments. The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in any Assignment Agreement shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.

9.23 Post-Closing Actions.

(a)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or the other Credit Documents, the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the Credit Parties shall be required to take the actions specified in Schedule 9.23 as promptly as practicable, and in any event within the time periods set forth in Schedule 9.23 or such other time periods as the Administrative Agent may agree. The provisions of Schedule 9.23 shall be deemed incorporated by reference herein as fully as if set forth herein in their entirety. All provisions of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents (including, without limitation, all conditions precedent, representations, warranties, certificates, borrowing notices, covenants, events of default and other agreements herein and therein) shall be deemed modified to the extent necessary to effect the foregoing (and to permit the taking of the actions described above within the time periods required above, rather than as otherwise provided in the Credit Documents); provided that (a) to the extent any representation and warranty would not be true because the foregoing actions were not taken on the Closing Date, the respective representation and warranty shall be required to be true and correct in all material respects at the time the respective action is taken (or was required to be taken) in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this Section 9.23 and (b) all representations and warranties relating to the Collateral Documents shall be required to be true immediately after the actions required to be taken by this Section 9.23 have been taken (or were required to be taken). The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the failure to take any of the actions required above within the relevant time periods required above shall give rise to an immediate Event of Default pursuant to this Agreement.

9.24 No Fiduciary Duty. The Administrative Agent, each Lender and their respective Affiliates (collectively, solely for purposes of this paragraph, the “Lenders”), may have economic interests that conflict with those of the Credit Parties. The Credit Parties, for themselves and their respective Affiliates each agree that nothing in the Credit Documents or otherwise will be deemed to create an advisory, fiduciary or agency relationship or fiduciary or other implied duty between the Lenders, on the one hand, and the Credit Parties and any of their respective stockholders or affiliates, on the other hand. The Credit Parties and their respective Affiliates each acknowledge and agree that (a) the transactions contemplated by the Credit Documents are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Lenders, on the one hand, and the Credit Parties on the other, (b) in connection therewith and with the process leading to those

transaction each of the Lenders is acting solely as a principal and not the agent or fiduciary of any Credit Party or its Affiliates, management, stockholders, creditors or any other person, (c) no Lender has assumed an advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of the Credit Parties or their respective Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether any Lender or any of its affiliates has advised or is currently advising any Credit Party or its Affiliates on other matters) or any other obligation to the Credit Parties or their respective Affiliates except the obligations expressly set forth in the Credit Documents and (4) the Credit Parties and their respective Affiliates have consulted their own legal and financial advisors to the extent each deemed appropriate. Each Credit Party and each of its Affiliates further acknowledges and agrees that it is responsible for making its own independent judgment with respect to the transactions contemplated by the Credit Documents and the process leading thereto. Each Credit Party and each of its Affiliates agrees that it will not claim that any Lender has rendered advisory services of any nature or respect, or owes a fiduciary or similar duty to any Credit Party or its Affiliates in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Credit Documents or the process leading thereto.

(b)Representations of the Lenders. In connection with the execution of this Agreement and the issuance of the Set-Up Fee Shares or Conversion Shares pursuant to this Agreement, each Lender, individually and solely with respect to itself and no other Lender, specifically represents, as of the date hereof, to AFHI by acceptance of the Set-Up Fee Shares or Conversion Shares issued to each Lender hereunder as follows:

(1)such Lender is duly formed, is authorized to execute and deliver this Agreement and to perform its obligations under this Agreement, and has duly executed and delivered this Agreement, and this Agreement constitutes the valid and binding obligations of such Lender, enforceable against such Lender in accordance with their terms, except as the enforceability of this Agreement may be limited by Bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws relating to the enforcement of creditors' rights generally and by general principles of equity;

(2)its execution and delivery of this Agreement and the performance of its obligations under this Agreement will not (i) conflict with, result in a breach of or constitute a material default (or any event that, with notice or lapse of time, or both, would constitute a material default) or result in the acceleration of any material obligation under any of the terms, conditions or provisions of any other material agreement or instrument to which it is a party or by which it is bound or to which any of its property or assets are subject, (ii) conflict with or violate any of the provisions of its organizational documents, or (iii) violate any statute or any order, rule or regulation of an governmental authority, in any manner that would have a materially adverse effect on the performance of its duties under this Agreement;

(3)such Lender has obtained all consents, approvals, authorizations or orders of any governmental authority required for the execution, delivery and performance by such Lender of its obligations under this Agreement;

(4)there is no action, suit or proceeding pending against such Lender, or, to its knowledge, threatened in any court or by or before any other governmental authority that would prohibit its entering into or performing its obligations under this Agreement;

(5)such Lender is an “accredited investor” as defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act. The Lender is acquiring the Set-Up Fee Shares or Conversion Shares to be issued upon the terms set forth in this Agreement for investment for its own account and not with a view towards, or for resale in connection with, the public sale or distribution of the Set-Up Fee Shares

or Conversion Shares, except pursuant to sales registered or exempted under the Securities Act;

(6)such Lender understands and acknowledges that (A) the Set-Up Fee Shares or Conversion Shares to be issued upon the terms set forth in this Agreement have not been registered under the Securities Act or the securities laws of any jurisdiction and are “restricted securities” under the federal securities laws inasmuch as they are being acquired from AFHI in a transaction not involving a public offering; and (B) under such laws and applicable regulations, such securities may not be resold or otherwise transferred to a third party unless they are subsequently registered under the Securities Act or otherwise qualified under applicable securities laws (unless an exemption from such registration or other qualification is available). In addition, the Lender represents that it is familiar with Rule 144 under the Securities Act, as presently in effect, and understands the resale limitations imposed thereby and by the Securities Act;

(7)such Lender acknowledges that it can bear the economic and financial risk of its investment for an indefinite period, including the risk of losing all of that investment; its financial condition is such that the Lender has no need for liquidity with respect to the investment in AFHI to satisfy any existing or contemplated undertaking or indebtedness; and it has such knowledge and experience in financial or business matters that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the investment in the Set-Up Fee Shares or Conversion Shares. The Lender has had an opportunity to ask questions and receive answers from AFHI regarding the terms and conditions of the offering of the Set-Up Fee Shares or Conversion Shares and the business, properties, prospects and financial condition of AFHI, and has been provided with all information and material related thereto as requested by the Lender;

(9)such Lender agrees that, if it owns 20% or more of AFHI’s outstanding voting securities at any time, it will complete, and cause any of its managers, partners or owners who are a beneficial owner of 20% or more of AFHI’s outstanding voting securities to complete, a “Covered Person Questionnaire” containing representations as to the bad actor disqualification events (each, a “Disqualifying Event”) set forth in Rule 506(d) of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act, and such questionnaire shall constitute a representation and warranty of the Lender under this Agreement. The Lender will immediately notify AFHI in writing if the Lender becomes subject to a Disqualifying Event at any date after the Lender completes a Covered Person Questionnaire. In the event that the Lender becomes subject to a Disqualifying Event at any date after the date that the Lender completes a Covered Person Questionnaire, the Lender agrees and covenants to use its commercially reasonable efforts to coordinate with AFHI (i)

to provide documentation as reasonably requested by AFHI related to any such Disqualifying Event and (ii) to implement a reasonable remedy to address the Lender’s changed circumstances such that the changed circumstances will not affect in any way AFHI’s or its Affiliates’ ongoing and/or future reliance on the exemptions available under Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act. Such Lender acknowledges that, at the discretion of AFHI, such remedies may include, without limitation, the waiver of all or a portion of the Lender’s voting power as a shareholder of AFHI;

(10)such Lender acknowledges that due to anti-terrorism and anti-money laundering regulations, the Company, the Manager, and any officer, employee or agent acting on behalf of the Company or the Manager, may require further documentation verifying such Lender’s identity and the source of the funds used to invest in AFHI. To comply with applicable U.S. laws, including, but not limited to, the International Anti-Money Laundering and Financial Anti-Terrorism Abatement Act of 2001 (Title III of the USA PATRIOT Act), such Lender agrees that all payments by the Lender to AFHI and all payments made or distributions paid to such Lender from AFHI will only be made in the Lender’s name and to and from a bank account of a bank based or incorporated in or formed under the laws of the United States or a bank that is not a “foreign shell bank” within the meaning of the U.S. Bank Secrecy Act (31 U.S.C. § 5311 et seq.), as amended, and the then current regulations promulgated thereunder by the U.S. Department of the Treasury. Such Lender further agrees to provide AFHI at any time during the term of this Agreement with such information or certification as AFHI determines to be necessary or appropriate to verify compliance with the anti-terrorism and anti-money laundering regulations, of any applicable jurisdiction or to respond to requests for information concerning the identity of such Lender or any Person directly or indirectly controlling or owning an interest in such Lender from any governmental authority, self-regulatory organization or financial institution in connection with AFHI’s compliance procedures with respect to anti-terrorism and anti-money laundering regulations and to update such information as necessary. Such information may include, but not be limited to, the name, address, telephone number, date of birth, and Social Security or taxpayer identification number of any such individual person, or of the beneficial owners of such Lender. In addition, such Lender certifies that neither it nor any Person directly or indirectly controlling or owning any interest in such Lender is identified as a specially designated national or blocked person, or is affiliated with any such person, entity or organization on any list maintained by governmental authorities relating to anti-terrorism or anti-money laundering, including, but not limited to, lists maintained by the United States Treasury Department's Office of Foreign Asset Control; and

(11)such Lender shall re-make the foregoing representations and provide such additional representation and information as AFHI may require as of the Conversion Date with respect to any Conversion Shares and as of the date of

issuance of the Set-Up Fee Shares and any Draw Fee Shares as set forth in Sections 2.7(c), 2.9(a), and 2.9(b) of this Agreement prior to the issuance of such Conversion Shares, Set-Up Fee Shares, or Draw Fee Shares, as applicable.

(c)Lender Not Deemed a Shareholder; Limitations on Liability. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, prior to the issuance to the applicable Lender of any Set-Up Fee Shares or Conversion Shares which such Lender is then entitled to receive upon the due exercise of the conversion rights set forth in this Agreement, such Lender shall not be entitled to vote or receive dividends or be deemed the holder of shares of capital stock of AFHI for any purpose, nor shall anything contained in this Agreement be construed to confer upon such Lender, as such, any of the rights of a shareholder of AFHI or any right to vote, give or withhold consent to any corporate action (whether any reorganization, issue of stock, reclassification of stock, consolidation, merger, conveyance or otherwise), receive notice of meetings, receive dividends or subscription rights, or otherwise with respect to any Set-Up Fee Shares or Conversion Shares that have not yet been issued to such Lender. In addition, nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed as imposing any liabilities on the Lender to purchase any securities or as a shareholder of AFHI, whether such liabilities are asserted by AFHI or by creditors of AFHI. Notwithstanding this Section 10.1, AFHI shall provide such Lender with copies of the same notices and other information given to the shareholders of AFHI generally, contemporaneously with the giving thereof to the shareholders.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be duly executed and delivered by their respective officers thereunto duly authorized as of the date first written above.
