RE: Waiver of Debt Service Coverage Ratio Covenant and Amendment to Credit Agreement

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We refer to the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of April 29, 2015 (as amended, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified before the date hereof, the “Credit Agreement”), among Cinedigm Corp. (the “Borrower”), certain Lenders, Société Générale, as Administrative Agent, and CIT Bank, N.A. (formerly known as OneWest Bank, N.A. and OneWest Bank, FSB), as Collateral Agent. Capitalized terms used and not defined herein shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the Credit Agreement.

Section 5.2 of the Credit Agreement requires the Borrower to maintain, as of the end of the Fiscal Quarter ending September 30, 2017, a Consolidated Debt Service Coverage Ratio of not less than 1.25:1.00.

Subject to the satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth below, the Lenders hereby waive the Borrower’s compliance with Section 5.2 of the Credit Agreement for the Fiscal Quarter ending September 30, 2017 and for each Fiscal Quarter thereafter.

Section 2.6 of the Credit Agreement permits the Borrower to, at any time, reduce the Revolving Aggregate Maximum Credit Amount. The Borrower hereby elects to reduce the Revolving Aggregate Maximum Credit Amount to $11,810,000, effective immediately. The Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders hereby waive the three Business Days’ notice period set forth in Section 2.6 of the Credit Agreement in connection with such reduction. In accordance with Section 2.6 of the Credit Agreement, such reduction of the Revolving Aggregate Maximum Credit Amount shall be (i) permanent and may not be reinstated, and (ii) made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with each Lender’s Applicable Percentage.
 



2

The Administrative Agent, the Required Lenders, and, by signing below, the Borrower and each other Loan Party hereby agree that, effective as of the date hereof, Section 5.1 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended and restated as follows:
Minimum Liquidity. The Borrower shall maintain at all times from July 15, 2016 through the Revolving Maturity Date, an aggregate amount of Minimum Liquidity of at least $800,000.”
The Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Issuing Bank and, by signing below, the Borrower and each other Loan Party hereby further agree that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document:
(i)
on and after the date hereof, the Borrower may not request, and the Lenders and the Issuing Bank shall have no obligation to make or issue, any Loans or Letters of Credit under the Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents; and
(ii)
the Revolving Aggregate Maximum Credit Amount will be reduced by $2,000,000 on each of January 31, 2018 and February 28, 2018 if the outstanding Obligations are not repaid in full by such date. If, as a result of such reductions to the Revolving Aggregate Maximum Credit Amount, the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Loans on the date of such reduction exceeds the lesser of (i) the Revolving Aggregate Maximum Credit Amount (after giving effect to such reduction), and (ii) the Revolving Borrowing Base (as most recently determined), the Borrower shall, as promptly as possible (but in no event later than three Business Days following the date of such reduction), make a prepayment in respect of the outstanding amount of the Revolving Loans in the amount of the Revolving Loan Excess.
This letter agreement shall become effective upon (i) the receipt by the Administrative Agent from the Borrower, each other Loan Party and the Lenders of signed counterparts to this letter agreement, and (ii) the receipt by the Administrative Agent from the Borrower of an amount equal to all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Agents in connection with this letter agreement, including the fees, charges and disbursements of counsel.

The waiver granted and the amendments made pursuant to the terms hereof are limited strictly to their respective terms, shall not be deemed to be a waiver or modification of any provision of the Credit Agreement except as expressly provided above, shall not extend to or effect any of the other obligations of Borrower under the Credit Agreement and shall not impair any rights consequent thereon. The Lenders shall have no obligation to issue any other or further waiver or any amendments or acknowledgements with respect to the matters addressed herein or any other matter. The Borrower (i) affirms and ratifies all of its obligations under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, (ii) agrees that, except as otherwise expressly provided above, the waiver set forth in this letter agreement does not constitute a waiver, forbearance or other indulgence with respect to any Event of Default existing or hereafter arising, (iii) agrees that, except as expressly provided above, nothing contained in this letter agreement shall be deemed to constitute a waiver of any rights or remedies that the Lenders, the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent may have under the Credit Agreement or any other
