Borrower:	Franchise Group Intermediate Holdco, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “*Lead Borrower”), MergerSub and certain other subsidiaries of the Lead Borrower to be agreed (together with the Lead Borrower and MergerSub, the “Borrower*”).

GACP:	GACP II, L.P. (“*GACP*”).

Sole Lead Arranger and Bookrunner:	GACP (in such capacity, the “*Lead Arranger*”).


ABL Administrative Agent and ABL Collateral Agent:	GACP Finance Co., LLC will act as the sole administrative agent and sole collateral agent (collectively, in such capacities, the “*ABL Administrative Agent*”) for the ABL Lenders (as defined below).

Transactions:	As described in Exhibit A to the Commitment Letter.

ABL Facility:	An asset-based revolving senior secured facility (the “*ABL Facility”) in an aggregate principal amount of up to $150.0 million (the “ABL Commitment Amount*”). The ABL Facility shall also include a sublimit for letters of credit in an amount to be determined to be made available for the account of Borrower.

	Loans under the ABL Facility (the “*ABL Loans*”) will be available to the Borrower in U.S. dollars.

ABL Lenders:	GACP and such other lenders that become party to the ABL Facility Documentation from time to time (collectively, the “*ABL Lenders*”).

Purpose:	The proceeds of loans under the ABL Facility will be used (i) on the Closing Date, to finance the Acquisition and the Refinancing and to pay the Transaction Costs and (ii) after the Closing Date, for working capital and other general corporate purposes.

Availability:	Availability under the ABL Facility shall not exceed the lesser of the ABL Commitment Amount and the Borrowing Base (as defined below). “*ABL Usage*” shall mean the aggregate amount of ABL Loans, protective overadvances, unreimbursed drawings under Letters of Credit and undrawn amounts of outstanding Letters of Credit incurred under the ABL Facility.

B-1

Interest Rates and Fees:	As set forth on Annex I hereto.

Borrowing Base:	ABL Loans and Letters of Credit advanced under the ABL Facility will be subject to availability under a borrowing base calculated as follows (the “*Borrowing Base*”):

	(A) 85% of the amount of eligible credit card receivables and eligible accounts, plus
	(B) 90% of the net orderly liquidation value of eligible inventory, minus
	(C) in each case, customary reserves (as described below).

	Eligible in-transit inventory shall not exceed 10% of the Borrowing Base.

	Eligibility criteria for eligible accounts, eligible credit card receivables, eligible inventory (including eligible in-transit inventory) shall be set forth in a manner consistent with the ABL Facility Documentation.

	Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrowing Base on the Closing Date shall be determined based on the Borrowing Base Certificate delivered on the Closing Date, it being understood that, if the audit, examinations and appraisals engaged by the ABL Administrative Agent are not completed on or before the Closing Date or if such Borrowing Base Certificate is not delivered by the Closing Date for any other reason, solely for purposes of determining the Borrowing Base on the Closing Date and for the period from the Closing Date until the earlier of (i) the date of delivery of such audit, examinations and appraisals or (ii) the date that is three (3) month following the Closing Date (the “*Initial Availability Period*”), the Borrowing Base shall be deemed to be $100 million in the aggregate until the expiration of the Initial Availability Period.

	After the Initial Availability Period, the Borrowing Base shall be reset based upon the results of such audit, examinations and appraisals. Thereafter, standards of eligibility, advance rates and reserve criteria to be utilized in the calculation of the Borrowing Base shall be determined or modified by the ABL Administrative Agent in its Permitted Discretion (as defined below) following notice of not less than three (3) days; provided that the ABL Administrative Agent shall not be required to provided notice with respect to changes to reserves based on mathematical calculations. Upon delivery of such notice, the ABL Administrative Agent agrees to make representatives available to discuss the proposed changes or modifications to or establishment of the standards of eligibility, advance rates or reserve criteria. Standards of eligibility or reserves established or modified and changes in advance rates by the ABL Administrative Agent shall have a reasonable relationship to circumstances, conditions, events or contingencies that are the basis for such standards of eligibility or reserves or changes in advance rates, as are reasonably determined by the ABL Administrative Agent in good faith. In the event that any reserve, modification or other action contemplated in this paragraph causes an overadvance, the Borrower shall have two (2) business days to repay any such overage.

B-2

	“*Permitted Discretion*” means a determination made in good faith and in the exercise of reasonable (from the perspective of a secured asset-based lender) business judgment and as it relates to the establishment or adjustment of reserves (or the modification of eligibility standards and criteria) shall require that (a) such establishment, adjustment or imposition after the Initial Availability Period be based on the analysis of facts or events first occurring or first discovered by the ABL Administrative Agent after the Closing Date or are materially different from the facts or events occurring or known to the ABL Administrative Agent at the end of the Initial Availability Period, unless the Borrower and the ABL Administrative Agent otherwise agree in writing, (b) the contributing factors to the imposition of any reserves shall not duplicate the exclusionary criteria set forth in the definitions of eligible accounts or eligible inventory, as applicable (and vice versa) and (c) the amount of any such reserve so established or the effect of any adjustment or imposition of exclusionary criteria be a reasonable quantification (as reasonably determined by the ABL Administrative Agent) of the incremental dilution of the Borrowing Base attributable to such contributing factors.

	The Borrowing Base shall be computed by the Borrower monthly and a certificate (the “*Borrowing Base Certificate*”) presenting the Borrower’s computation of the Borrowing Base will be delivered to the ABL Administrative Agent promptly, but in no event later than the 15th calendar day following the end of each calendar month, provided however that (i) during the continuance of a Specified Event of Default (as defined below), or if Excess Availability is less than the greater of $20 million and 15% of the ABL Loan Cap (as defined below) the Borrower shall be required to compute the Borrowing Base and deliver a Borrowing Base Certificate on a weekly basis until the date on which, as applicable, in the case of clause (i), such Specified Event of Default is cured or waived, or in the case of clause (ii), Excess Availability has been at least the greater of 15% of the ABL Loan Cap and $20 million for at least 20 consecutive days.

	“*Specified Event of Default*” shall mean any payment or bankruptcy event of default, a misrepresentation of the Borrowing Base in any material respect, a failure to deliver any required Borrowing Base Certificate, any event of default arising from the breach of the cash management provisions and any event of default arising from failure to comply with the Financial Covenants.

B-3

	“*ABL Loan Cap*” shall mean, at any time, the lesser of (x) the ABL Commitment Amount, and (y) the Borrowing Base.

	“*Excess Availability*” means, at any time of determination, (i) the ABL Loan Cap minus (y) ABL Usage, in each case calculated based on the most recent Borrowing Base Certificate delivered under the ABL Facility.

Maturity:	The ABL Facility will mature and the commitments thereunder will terminate on the earlier of (i) the 90th day preceding the maturity of the First Lien Term Loan Facility and (ii) the fifth anniversary of the Closing Date.

Guarantees:	All obligations of the Borrower under the ABL Facility will be unconditionally guaranteed by:

	The foregoing guarantees are referred to herein as the “*Guarantees.” The Borrower and the Guarantors are herein referred to as the “Loan Parties” and, individually, as a “Loan Party*.”

ANNEX I TO EXHIBIT C

Interest Rates:	The interest rates under the First Lien Term Loan Facility will be, at the option of the Borrower (a) Adjusted LIBOR plus the Applicable Margin or (b) ABR plus the Applicable Margin.

	As used herein:

	“*Adjusted LIBOR” means the London interbank offered rate, adjusted for statutory reserve requirements; provided* that Adjusted LIBOR shall be no less than 1.50% per annum. The LIBOR replacement language in respect of the Adjusted LIBOR rate shall be consistent with customary ARRC language for transactions of this type.

	“*ABR” means the highest of (a) the prime rate announced by The Wall Street Journal, (b) the Federal Funds Rate plus* 0.50% per annum, (c) one-month Adjusted LIBOR (taking into account any floor) plus 1.00% per annum, and (d) 2.50% per annum.

	“*Applicable Margin” means with respect to the A-1 Tranche, (i) 5.50% per annum, in the case of Adjusted LIBOR loans, and (ii) 4.50% per annum*, in the case of ABR loans.

	Adjusted LIBOR borrowings may be made for interest periods of 1, 2, 3, or 6 months, as selected by the Borrower.

	Interest on loans and all fees will be payable in arrears on the basis of a 360-day year (calculated on the basis of actual number of days elapsed); provided that interest on ABR loans will be payable in arrears on the basis of a 365-day year (or a 366-day year in a leap year), in each case calculated on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed. Interest will be payable on Adjusted LIBOR loans on the last day of the applicable interest period (and at the end of each three months, in the case of interest periods longer than three months) and upon prepayment, and on ABR loans quarterly and upon prepayment.

Default Rate:	Upon and during the continuance of any event of default, the applicable interest rate plus 2.00% per annum, and with respect to any amount other than principal (including interest), the interest rate applicable to ABR loans plus 2.00% per annum.

C-I-1

Call Premium:	If all or any portion of the principal balance of any First Lien Term Loan is paid in whole or in part for any reason at any time after the first anniversary of the Closing Date and prior to the to be agreed anniversary of the Closing Date (including, whether voluntary and whether before or after acceleration of the obligations in respect of the First Lien Term Loan Facility or the commencement of any insolvency proceeding, but in any event including, without limitation, any such prepayment in connection with (i) a change of control, (ii) an acceleration of the obligations in respect of the First Lien Term Loan Facility as a result of the occurrence of an event of default, (iii) foreclosure and sale of, or collection of, the Collateral, (iv) sale of the Collateral in any insolvency proceeding, (v) the restructure, reorganization, or compromise of the obligations in respect of the First Lien Term Loan Facility by the confirmation of a plan of reorganization or any other plan of compromise, restructure, or arrangement in any insolvency proceeding, or (vi) the termination of the First Lien Term Loan Facility for any reason, but excluding (a) amortization payments and (b) mandatory prepayments (other than mandatory prepayments from the proceeds of indebtedness), the Borrower shall pay to the applicable Term Loan Lenders a call premium (the “*Call Premium*”) in an amount equal to percentages to be mutually agreed of the amount repaid or prepaid, to the extent such repayment or prepayment occurs following the first anniversary of the Closing Date and on or prior to the to be agreed anniversary of the Closing Date. If the Yank-A-Bank Right is exercised by the Borrower, the Term Loan Lender that is replaced shall be entitled to the Call Premium in respect of its First Lien Term Loans.

	Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that if the obligations under the Term Loan Documentation are accelerated on or prior to the to be agreed anniversary of the Closing Date for any reason, including because of default, the commencement of any insolvency proceeding or other proceeding pursuant to any applicable debtor relief laws, sale, disposition, or encumbrance (including that by operation of law or otherwise), the Call Premium, determined as of the date of acceleration, will also be due and payable as though said obligations were voluntarily prepaid as of such date and shall constitute part of the obligations, in view of the impracticability and extreme difficulty of ascertaining actual damages and by mutual agreement of the parties as to a reasonable calculation of each Term Loan Lender’s lost profits as a result thereof. The Call Premium payable in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence shall be presumed to be the liquidated damages sustained by each Term Loan Lender as the result of the early termination, and the Borrower agrees that it is reasonable under the circumstances. The Call Premium shall also be payable in the event the obligations (and/or the credit agreement evidencing the obligations) are satisfied or released by foreclosure (whether by power of judicial proceeding), deed in lieu of foreclosure, or by any other means. BORROWER EXPRESSLY WAIVES THE PROVISIONS OF ANY PRESENT OR FUTURE STATUTE OR LAW THAT PROHIBITS OR MAY PROHIBIT THE COLLECTION OF THE FOREGOING CALL PREMIUM IN CONNECTION WITH ANY SUCH ACCELERATION. The Borrower expressly agrees that: (A) the Call Premium is reasonable and is the product of an arm’s length transaction between sophisticated business people, ably represented by counsel, (B) the Call Premium shall be payable notwithstanding the then prevailing market rates at the time payment is made, (C) there has been a course of conduct between the Term Loan Lenders and Borrower giving specific consideration in this transaction for such agreement to pay the Call Premium, and (D) Borrower shall be estopped hereafter from claiming differently than as agreed to in this paragraph. The Borrower expressly acknowledges that its agreement to pay the Call Premium as herein described is a material inducement to the Term Loan Lenders to provide the term loan commitments and make the term loans under the First Lien Term Loan Facility.
