The parties agree as follows:

Accounting terms not defined in this Agreement shall be construed following GAAP. Calculations and determinations must be made following GAAP.

2.2    Term Loan.

(a)    On the Closing Date, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, Lender will make a term loan to Borrower in an amount equal to $33,199,918.00 (the “Term Loan”) which shall be deemed to be funded on the Closing Date as part of the payment by Borrower of the Purchase Price (as defined in the Stock Purchase Agreement).

(b)    On the Closing Date, Borrower shall execute and deliver to Lender a promissory note (in a customary form) payable to the order of Lender and evidencing the Term Loan.

2.3    Repayment of Term Loan; Interest Payments; Automatic Principal Reduction.

(a)    Borrower shall repay the principal of the Term Loan and shall pay interest thereon pursuant to the terms set forth herein which, as of the Closing Date, require Borrower to pay (i) quarterly payments of interest on the last calendar day of each calendar quarter (each such date, an “Interest Payment Date”) at the rate set forth in Section 2.4(b), (ii) quarterly installments of principal on the last calendar day of each calendar quarter commencing with the first full calendar quarter following the Final Settlement Reference Date in the amounts set forth in Section 2.5(a), and (iii) such additional quarterly installments as may be required under Section 2.5(b) (the payments required under Section 2.5(a) and 2.5(b) each, a “Term Loan Payment”), in each case subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 2.6(c). Borrower’s final Term Loan Payment, due on the Maturity Date, shall include all outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest under the Term Loan. Without limiting any fees or amounts to be paid by Borrower upon a prepayment as contemplated hereunder (if any), Borrower may, by giving at least one (1) Business Day’s notice to Lender, prepay the Term Loan in whole or in part (any such partial prepayment being applied to the Term Loan Payments in direct order of maturity thereof).

(b)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the principal amount of the Term Loan shall be automatically adjusted in an amount equal to the Net Adjustment Amount (as defined in the Stock Purchase Agreement) pursuant to Section 2.05 of the Stock Purchase Agreement.

2.4    Payment of Interest on the Term Loan.

(a)    Computation of Interest. Interest on the Term Loan and all fees payable hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year and the actual number of days elapsed in the period during which such interest accrues. In computing interest on the Term Loan, the date of payment shall be excluded.

(b)    Interest Rate. Subject to Section 2.4(c), the principal amount outstanding under the Term Loan shall accrue interest at a rate per annum equal to 8.00%. Interest on the Term Loan shall be paid in arrears on each Interest Payment Date. Interest shall also be paid on the date of any prepayment of the Term Loan pursuant to this Agreement for the portion of the Term Loan so prepaid and upon payment (including prepayment) in full thereof.

(c)    Default Rate. After an Event of Default, Obligations shall bear interest at a rate of ten percent (10.0%) (the “Default Rate”). Payment or acceptance of the increased interest provided in this Section 2.4(c) is not a permitted alternative to timely payment and shall not constitute a waiver of any Event of Default or otherwise prejudice or limit any rights or remedies of Lender.

(e)    Payments. Unless otherwise provided, interest is payable on the Interest Payment Date.

2.5    Repayment of Principal on the Term Loan.

(ii)    If, for any calendar quarter completed following the first four full calendar quarters after the Final Settlement Reference Date, Borrower’s EBITDA shall be equal to or exceed Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000.00) (the “EBITDA Threshold”), Borrower shall make additional quarterly repayments of (x) Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000.00) and (y) an additional Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000.00) for each whole multiple of Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000.00) in excess of the EBITDA Threshold, in each case to be paid on the last calendar day of the calendar quarter following the quarter for which EBITDA is equal to or exceeds the EBITDA Threshold.

2.6    Mandatory Prepayments.

(a)    Liquidity Events. On each occasion that a Liquidity Event occurs, (i) unless Borrower has delivered a Reinvestment Notice in respect thereof, Borrower shall, within five (5) Business Days after the receipt of Net Cash Proceeds from such Liquidity Event, prepay, in accordance with Section 2.6(c), a principal amount of the Term Loan in an amount equal to 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds received by Borrower from such Liquidity Event, and (ii) if a Reinvestment Notice shall have been delivered in respect thereof, on the applicable Reinvestment Prepayment Date, Borrower shall prepay, in accordance with Section 2.6(c), a principal amount of the Term Loan in an amount equal to the Reinvestment Prepayment Amount with respect to the relevant Liquidity Event; provided that in either such case, the prepayment set forth in this Section 2.6(a) shall apply solely to the extent that the Net Cash Proceeds received by Borrower from the applicable Liquidity Event shall exceed Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000.00) and then only to the extent of such excess; provided further that the aggregate amount of Net Cash Proceeds that may be retained

by Borrower pursuant to the preceding proviso shall not exceed Twenty Five Million Dollars ($25,000,000.00) in any calendar year.

(b)    Excess Capital. If, as a result of the merger, amalgamation or other combination of the business and operations of any of Borrower’s Subsidiaries and any entity acquired, directly or indirectly, by Borrower pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement, the surviving Subsidiary in such transaction has available capital in excess of the applicable Minimum Regulatory Capital (“Excess Capital”), then Borrower shall prepay, in accordance with Section 2.6(c), a principal amount of the Term Loan in an amount equal to 50% of such Excess Capital. Such prepayment shall be made within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of any Governmental Approval required for the release of the Excess Capital by the applicable Subsidiary; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, no prepayment shall be required to be made pursuant to this Section 2.6(b) prior to the Final Settlement Reference Date. For purposes of this Agreement, “Minimum Regulatory Capital” means, with respect to any Subsidiary, the sum of (i) the minimum capital required to be maintained by such Subsidiary by any Governmental Authority with regulatory oversight over such Subsidiary, plus (ii) any additional capital necessary in order to satisfy any “early warning” or similar threshold imposed by such Governmental Authority, plus (iii) such additional capital as reasonably deemed necessary by Borrower to provide a commercially reasonable cushion in excess of any applicable “early warning” or similar threshold, in an amount consistent with Borrower’s past practice.

(c)    Application of Mandatory Prepayments. Any amounts required to be paid pursuant to Section 2.6(a) or Section 2.6(b) shall be applied in inverse order of maturity to the payments required under Section 2.5(a) and, if applicable, Section 2.5(b).

(a)    a counterpart of this Agreement signed on behalf of Borrower;

Documents to which it is a party and (D) a certificate dated as of a recent date certifying to the good standing of Borrower under the laws of its jurisdiction of organization;

4.1    Grant of Security Interest. Borrower hereby grants to Lender, to secure the payment and performance in full of all of the Obligations, a continuing security interest in, and pledges to Lender, the Collateral, wherever located, whether now owned or hereafter acquired or arising, and all proceeds and products thereof. Borrower represents, warrants, and covenants that the security interest granted herein is and shall at all times continue to be a first priority perfected (other than in respect of commercial tort claims not described in the following sentence) security interest in the Collateral (subject only to Permitted Liens that may have superior priority to Lender’s Lien under this Agreement). If Borrower shall acquire a commercial tort claim (the acquisition of which shall be determined based upon the commencement of litigation with respect thereto) with a reasonably anticipated value equal to Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000.00) or more, Borrower shall promptly notify Lender in a writing signed by Borrower of the general details thereof and grant to Lender in such writing a security interest therein and in the proceeds thereof, all upon the terms of this Agreement, with such writing to be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender.

If this Agreement is terminated, Lender’s Lien in the Collateral shall continue until the Obligations (other than inchoate indemnity obligations) are repaid in full in cash. Upon payment in full in cash of the Obligations, Lender shall, at Borrower’s sole cost and expense, release its Liens in the Collateral and all rights therein shall revert to Borrower.

4.2    Authorization to File Financing Statements. Borrower hereby authorizes Lender to file financing statements, without notice to Borrower, with all appropriate jurisdictions to perfect or protect Lender’s interest or rights hereunder, including a notice that any disposition of the Collateral, by either Borrower or any other Person, shall be deemed to violate the rights of Lender under the Code. Such financing statements may indicate the Collateral as “all assets of the Debtor” or words of similar effect, or as being of an equal or lesser scope, or with greater detail, all in Lender’s discretion.

Borrower represents and warrants, with respect to itself, and its Subsidiaries:

5.1    Due Organization and Authorization; Power and Authority. Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries are duly existing and in good standing, as Registered Organizations in their respective jurisdictions of formation and are qualified and licensed to do business and are in good standing in any jurisdiction in which the conduct of their business or their ownership of property requires that they be qualified except where the failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on Borrower’s business. Borrower has previously delivered to Lender the Perfection Certificate. Borrower represents and warrants to Lender that (a) Borrower’s exact legal name is that indicated on the Perfection Certificate and on the signature page hereof; (b) Borrower is an organization of the type and is organized in the jurisdiction set forth in the Perfection Certificate; (c) the Perfection Certificate accurately sets forth Borrower’s organizational identification number or accurately states that Borrower has none; (d) the Perfection Certificate accurately sets forth Borrower’s place of business, or, if more than one, its chief executive office as well as Borrower’s mailing address (if different than its chief executive office); (e) except to the extent set forth in the Perfection Certificate, Borrower (and each of its predecessors) has not, in the past five (5) years, changed its jurisdiction of formation, organizational structure or type, or any organizational number assigned by its jurisdiction; and (f) all other information set forth on the Perfection Certificate pertaining to Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries is accurate and complete in all material respects (it being understood and agreed that Borrower may from time to time update certain information in the Perfection Certificate after the Closing Date to the extent permitted by one or more specific provisions in this Agreement). If Borrower is not now a Registered Organization but later becomes one, Borrower shall promptly notify Lender of such occurrence and provide Lender with Borrower’s organizational identification number.

The execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents by Borrower and Guarantor have been duly authorized, and do not (i) conflict with Borrower’s or Guarantor’s organizational documents, (ii) contravene, conflict with, constitute a default under or violate any material Requirement of Law, (iii) contravene, conflict or violate any applicable order, writ, judgment, injunction, decree, determination or award of any Governmental Authority by which Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their property or assets may be bound or affected, (iv) require any action by, filing, registration, or qualification with, or Governmental Approval from, any Governmental Authority (except such Governmental Approvals which have already been obtained and are in full force and effect and filings to perfect Liens granted under the Loan Documents) or (v) constitute an event of default under any material agreement by which Borrower or any one of its Subsidiaries is bound. Neither Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries is in default under any agreement to which it is a party or by which it is bound in which the default would have (A) a material adverse effect on the business of Borrower and its Subsidiaries (taken as a whole) or (B) any material adverse impact on the ability of Borrower to satisfy the Obligations when due hereunder.

5.2    Collateral. Borrower has good title to, has rights in, and the power to transfer each item of the Collateral upon which it purports to grant a Lien hereunder, free and clear of any and all Liens except Permitted Liens. Borrower has no deposit accounts other than the deposit accounts (i) described in the Perfection Certificate delivered to Lender in connection herewith, or (ii) of which Borrower has given Lender notice and, in each case of deposit accounts under clauses (i) or (ii), as to which Borrower has taken such actions as are necessary to give Lender a perfected security interest therein. Except as noted on the Perfection Certificate, Borrower is not a party to, nor is it bound by, any Restricted License.

Borrower is the sole owner of the intellectual property which it owns or purports to own and that is material to its business except for (a) non-exclusive licenses granted to its customers in the ordinary course of business, (b) over-the-counter software that is commercially available to the public, and (c) material intellectual property licensed to Borrower and noted on the Perfection Certificate. Each patent which it owns or purports to own and which is material to Borrower’s business is valid and enforceable, and no part of the intellectual property which Borrower owns or purports to own and which is material to Borrower’s business has been judged invalid or unenforceable, in whole or in part. To the best of Borrower’s knowledge, no claim has been made that any part of the intellectual property violates the rights of any third party except to the extent such claim would not reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on Borrower’s business.

financial condition as of the end of each such period and Borrower’s consolidated results of operations for each such period. Since December 31, 2012, there has been no material adverse change in the business of Borrower and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.

5.5    Solvency. As of the Closing Date, (i) the fair salable value of Borrower’s assets (including goodwill minus disposition costs) exceeds the fair value of its liabilities, (ii) Borrower is not left with unreasonably small capital after the transactions in this Agreement; and (iii) Borrower is able to pay its debts (including trade debts) as they mature.

None of Borrower’s or any of its Subsidiaries’ properties or assets has been used by Borrower or any Subsidiary or, to the best of Borrower’s knowledge, by previous Persons, in disposing, producing, storing, treating, or transporting any hazardous substance other than legally. Except to the extent that the failure to do so would not have (a) a material adverse effect on the business of Borrower and its Subsidiaries (taken as a whole) or (b) any material adverse impact on the ability of Borrower to satisfy the Obligations when due hereunder, Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries have obtained all consents, approvals and authorizations of, made all declarations or filings with, and given all notices to, all Government Authorities that are necessary to continue their respective businesses as currently conducted.

The capital structure of Borrower and its Subsidiaries, as detailed on Schedule 5.11, will not change without the prior written consent of Lender, except for (a) the Proposed Reorganization and (b) any other change that (i) would not have a material adverse effect on the business of Borrower and its Subsidiaries (taken as a whole) and (ii) does not have any material adverse impact on the ability of Borrower to satisfy the Obligations when due hereunder.

5.12    Full Disclosure. No written representation, warranty or other statement of Borrower or its Subsidiaries in (i) the Perfection Certificate delivered pursuant to Section 3.1(b)(i) or any other certificate delivered pursuant to Section 3.1 hereof or (ii) any certificate given to Lender following the Closing Date in connection with this Agreement, as of the date such representations, warranties, or other statements were made, taken together with all such written certificates given to Lender pursuant to this Agreement as of such date, contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact necessary to make the statements contained in the certificates not misleading (it being recognized by Lender that the projections and forecasts provided by Borrower (with respect to Borrower or its Subsidiaries) in good faith and based upon reasonable assumptions are not viewed as facts and that actual results during the period or periods covered by such projections and forecasts may differ from the projected or forecasted results).

Grace periods provided under this section shall not apply, among other things, to financial covenants or any other covenants set forth in subsection (a) above;

8.3    Intentionally omitted.

8.4    Attachment. (a) Any material portion of Borrower’s and/or its Subsidiaries’ assets is attached, seized, levied on, or comes into possession of a trustee or receiver and the attachment, seizure or levy is not removed in ten (10) days; (b) [intentionally omitted]; (c) Borrower and/or its Subsidiaries is enjoined, restrained, or prevented by court order from conducting a material part of its business; (d) [intentionally omitted]; or (e) a notice of lien, levy, or assessment is filed against any of Borrower’s and/or its Subsidiaries’ assets by any government agency and not paid within ten (10) days after Borrower receives notice.

8.7    Judgments. A judgment or judgments for the payment of money in an amount, individually or in the aggregate, of at least Two Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($2,500,000.00) (not covered by independent third-party insurance, and excluding any judgment in respect of the Shared Liabilities) shall be rendered against Borrower and/or its Subsidiaries, and shall remain unsatisfied and unstayed for a period of thirty (30) days after the entry thereof;

8.8    Misrepresentations. Borrower or Guarantor (or any Person acting for Borrower or Guarantor) makes any representation, warranty, or other statement in this Agreement, any Loan Document or in any writing delivered to Lender pursuant to this Agreement or any Loan Document, and such representation, warranty, or other statement is incorrect in any material respect when made;

9.1    Rights and Remedies. While an Event of Default occurs and continues Lender may, without notice or demand, do any or all of the following:

(a)    declare all Obligations immediately due and payable (but if an Event of Default described in Section 8.5 occurs all Obligations are immediately due and payable without any action by Lender);

(b)    [intentionally omitted];

(c)    settle or adjust disputes and claims directly with Account Debtors for amounts on terms and in any order that Lender considers advisable, notify any Person owing Borrower money of Lender’s security interest in such funds, and verify the amount of such account;

(d)    make any payments and do any acts it considers necessary or reasonable to protect the Collateral and/or its security interest in the Collateral. Borrower shall assemble the Collateral if Lender requests and make it available as Lender designates. Lender may enter premises where the Collateral is located, take and maintain possession of any part of the Collateral, and pay, purchase, contest, or compromise any Lien which appears to be prior or superior to its security interest and pay all expenses incurred. Borrower grants Lender a license to enter and occupy any of its premises, without charge, to exercise any of Lender’s rights or remedies;

(e)    apply to the Obligations any amount held by Lender owing to or for the credit or the account of Borrower;

(f)    ship, reclaim, recover, store, finish, maintain, repair, prepare for sale, advertise for sale, and sell the Collateral. Lender is hereby granted a non-exclusive, royalty-free license or other right to use, without charge, Borrower’s labels, patents, copyrights, mask works, rights of use of any name, trade secrets, trade names, trademarks, service marks and advertising matter, or any similar property as it pertains to the Collateral, in completing production of, advertising for sale, and selling any Collateral and, in connection with Lender’s exercise of its rights under this Section, Borrower’s rights under all licenses and all franchise agreements inure to Lender;

(g)    deliver a notice of exclusive control, any entitlement order, or other directions or instructions pursuant to any Control Agreement or similar agreements providing control of any Collateral;

(h)    demand and receive possession of Borrower’s Books; and

(i)    exercise all rights and remedies available to Lender under the Loan Documents or at law or equity, including all remedies provided under the Code (including disposal of the Collateral pursuant to the terms thereof).

9.2    Power of Attorney. Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints Lender as its lawful attorney-in-fact, exercisable upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to: (a) endorse Borrower’s name on any checks or other forms of payment or security; (b) sign Borrower’s name on any invoice or bill of lading for any

Account or drafts against Account Debtors; (c) settle and adjust disputes and claims about the Accounts directly with Account Debtors, for amounts and on terms Lender determines reasonable; (d) make, settle, and adjust all claims under Borrower’s insurance policies; (e) pay, contest or settle any Lien, charge, encumbrance, security interest, and adverse claim in or to the Collateral, or any judgment based thereon, or otherwise take any action to terminate or discharge the same; and (f) transfer the Collateral into the name of Lender for its own benefit or a third party as the Code permits. Borrower hereby appoints Lender as its lawful attorney-in-fact to sign Borrower’s name on any documents necessary to perfect (to the extent such perfection is required hereunder) or continue the perfection of any security interest regardless of whether an Event of Default has occurred until all Obligations have been satisfied in full. Lender’s foregoing appointment as Borrower’s attorney in fact, and all of Lender’s rights and powers, coupled with an interest, are irrevocable until all Obligations have been fully repaid and performed.

9.3    Accounts Verification; Collection. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Lender may notify any Person owing Borrower money of Lender’s security interest in such funds and verify the amount of such account. After the occurrence of an Event of Default, any amounts received by Borrower shall be held in trust by Borrower for Lender, and, if requested by Lender, Borrower shall immediately deliver such receipts to Lender in the form received from the Account Debtor, with proper endorsements for deposit.

9.4    Protective Payments. If Borrower fails to obtain the insurance called for by Section 6.5 or fails to pay any premium thereon or fails to pay any other amount which Borrower is obligated to pay under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, Lender may obtain such insurance or make such payment, and all amounts so paid by Lender are Lender’s Expenses and immediately due and payable, bearing interest at the Default Rate, and secured by the Collateral. Lender will make reasonable efforts to provide Borrower with notice of Lender obtaining such insurance at the time it is obtained or within a reasonable time thereafter. No payments by Lender are deemed an agreement to make similar payments in the future or Lender’s waiver of any Event of Default.

9.5    Application of Payments and Proceeds. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Lender may apply any funds in its possession, whether from Borrower account balances, payments, proceeds realized as the result of any collection of Accounts or other disposition of the Collateral, or otherwise, to the Obligations in such order as Lender shall determine in its sole discretion. Any surplus shall be paid to Borrower or other Persons legally entitled thereto; Borrower shall remain liable to Lender for any deficiency. If Lender, in its good faith business judgment, directly or indirectly enters into a deferred payment or other credit transaction with any purchaser at any sale of Collateral, Lender shall have the option, exercisable at any time, of either reducing the Obligations by the principal amount of the purchase price or deferring the reduction of the Obligations until the actual receipt by Lender of cash therefor

9.6    Lender’s Liability for Collateral. So long as Lender complies with reasonable practices regarding the safekeeping of the Collateral in the possession or under the control of Lender, Lender shall not be liable or responsible for: (a) the safekeeping of the Collateral; (b) any loss or damage to the Collateral; (c) any diminution in the value of the Collateral; or (d) any act or default of any carrier, warehouseman, bailee, or other Person. Borrower bears all risk of loss, damage or destruction of the Collateral.

9.7    No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative. Lender’s failure, at any time or times, to require strict performance by Borrower of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall not waive, affect, or diminish any right of Lender thereafter to demand strict performance and compliance herewith or therewith. No waiver hereunder shall be effective unless signed by Lender and then is only effective for the specific instance and purpose for which it is given. Lender’s rights and remedies under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are cumulative. Lender has all rights and remedies provided under the Code, by law, or in equity. Lender’s exercise of one right or remedy is not an election and shall not preclude Lender from exercising any other remedy under this Agreement or other remedy available at law or in equity, and Lender’s waiver of any Event of Default is not a continuing waiver. Lender’s delay in exercising any remedy is not a waiver, election, or acquiescence.

9.8    Demand Waiver. Borrower waives demand, notice of default or dishonor, notice of payment and nonpayment, notice of any default, nonpayment at maturity, release, compromise, settlement, extension, or renewal of accounts, documents, instruments, chattel paper, and guarantees held by Lender on which Borrower is liable.

All notices, consents, requests, approvals, demands, or other communication (collectively, “Communication”) by any party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document must be in writing and shall be deemed to have been validly served, given, or delivered: (a) upon the earlier of actual receipt and three (3) Business Days after deposit in the U.S. mail, first class, registered or certified mail return receipt requested, with proper postage prepaid; (b) upon transmission, when sent by electronic mail or facsimile transmission; (c) one (1) Business Day after deposit with a reputable overnight courier with all charges prepaid; or (d) when delivered, if hand-delivered by messenger, all of which shall be addressed to the party to be notified and sent to the address, facsimile number, or email address indicated below. Either Lender or Borrower may change its mailing or electronic mail address or facsimile number by giving the other party written notice thereof in accordance with the terms of this Section 10.

The law of the State of New York governs the Loan Documents without regard to principles of conflicts of law. Borrower and Lender each submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the State and Federal courts in the City of New York; provided, however, that nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to operate to preclude Lender from bringing suit or taking other legal action in any other jurisdiction to realize on the Collateral or any other security for the Obligations, or to enforce a judgment or other court order in favor of Lender. Borrower expressly submits and consents in advance to such jurisdiction in any action or suit commenced in any such court, and Borrower hereby waives any objection that it may have based upon lack of personal jurisdiction, improper venue, or forum non conveniens and hereby consents to the granting of such legal or equitable relief as is deemed appropriate by such court. Borrower hereby waives personal service of the summons, complaints, and other process issued in such action or suit and agrees that service of such summons, complaints, and other process may be made by registered or certified mail addressed to Borrower at the address set forth in Section 10 of this Agreement and that service so made shall be deemed completed upon the earlier to occur of Borrower’s actual receipt thereof or three (3) days after deposit in the U.S. mails, proper postage prepaid.

12.1    Successors and Assigns. This Agreement binds and is for the benefit of the successors and permitted assigns of each party. Borrower may not assign this Agreement or any rights or obligations under it without prior written consent of Lender (which may be granted or withheld in Lender’s discretion). Lender may not assign this Agreement or any rights or obligations under it; provided that Lender may assign all of its rights and obligations (but not a portion thereof) under this Agreement to natural persons related to Lender or to estate planning vehicles (together, “Eligible Assignees”), in each case solely for estate planning purposes.

12.2    Indemnification. Borrower agrees to indemnify, defend and hold Lender and its agents, attorneys, or any other Person affiliated with or representing Lender harmless against: (a) all obligations, demands, claims, and liabilities (collectively, “Claims”) asserted by any party other than Borrower against Lender in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents; and (b) all losses or Lender’s Expenses incurred, or paid by Lender from, following, or arising from transactions between Lender and Borrower (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses), except for (i) Claims and/or losses directly caused by Lender’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, or (ii) liabilities of Lender to Borrower directly resulting from claims brought by Borrower against Lender.

12.3    Limitation of Actions. Any claim or cause of action brought by Borrower against Lender, its agents, accountants, attorneys, or any other Person affiliated with or representing Lender based upon, arising from, or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any other transaction contemplated hereby or thereby or relating hereto or thereto, or any other matter, cause or thing whatsoever, occurred, done, omitted or suffered to be done by Lender, its agents, accountants or attorneys, shall be barred unless asserted by Borrower by the commencement of an action or proceeding in a court of competent jurisdiction by (a) the filing of a complaint within one year from the earlier of (i) the date any of Borrower’s officer or directors had knowledge of the first act, the occurrence or omission upon which such claim or cause of action, or any part thereof, is based, or (ii) the date this Agreement is terminated, and (b) the service of a summons and complaint on Lender, or on any other person authorized to accept service on behalf of Lender, within thirty (30) days thereafter. Borrower agrees that such one-year period is a reasonable and sufficient time for Borrower to investigate and act upon any such claim or cause of action. The one-year period provided herein shall not be waived, tolled, or extended except by the written consent of Lender in its sole discretion. This provision shall survive any termination of this Agreement or any other Loan Document; provided, however that this provision shall be inapplicable to Borrower’s setoff rights under Section 12.11.

12.4    Time of Essence. Time is of the essence for the performance of all Obligations in this Agreement.

12.5    Severability of Provisions. Each provision of this Agreement is severable from every other provision in determining the enforceability of any provision.

12.6    Amendments in Writing; Integration. All amendments to this Agreement must be in writing and signed by Lender and Borrower. This Agreement, the Loan Documents and the Stock Purchase Agreement represent the entire agreement about this subject matter and supersede prior negotiations or agreements. All prior agreements, understandings, representations, warranties, and negotiations between the parties about the subject matter of this Agreement, the Loan Documents and the Stock Purchase Agreement merge into this Agreement, the Loan Documents and the Stock Purchase Agreement.

12.7    Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties on separate counterparts, each of which, when executed and delivered, are an original, and all taken together, constitute one Agreement.

12.8    Survival. All covenants, representations and warranties made in this Agreement continue in full force until this Agreement has terminated pursuant to its terms and all Obligations (other than inchoate indemnity obligations and any other obligations which, by their terms, are to survive the termination of this Agreement) have been paid satisfied. The obligation of Borrower in Section 12.2 to indemnify Lender shall survive until the statute of limitations with respect to such claim or cause of action shall have run.

12.9    Confidentiality. In handling any confidential information, Lender shall exercise the same degree of care that it exercises for its own proprietary information, but disclosure of information may be made: (a) to Eligible Assignees (provided, however, Lender shall obtain such Eligible Assignee’s agreement to the terms of this provision); (b) as required by law, regulation, subpoena, or other order; (c) as Lender considers appropriate in exercising remedies under the Loan Documents; and (d) to third-party service providers of Lender so long as such service providers have executed a confidentiality agreement with Lender with terms no less restrictive than those contained herein. Confidential information does not include information that either: (i) is in the public domain or in Lender’s possession when disclosed to Lender, or becomes part of the public domain after disclosure to Lender; or (ii) is disclosed to Lender by a third party, if Lender does not know that the third party is prohibited from disclosing the information.

12.10    Lender’s Right of Set Off. Borrower hereby grants to Lender a lien, security interest and right of set off as security for all Obligations to Lender, whether now existing or hereafter arising upon and against all deposits, credits, collateral and property, now or hereafter in the possession, custody, safekeeping or control of Lender or any entity under the control of Lender (including a Lender subsidiary) or in transit to any of them. At any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, without demand or notice, Lender may set off the same or any part thereof and apply the same to any liability or obligation of Borrower even though unmatured and regardless of the adequacy of any other collateral securing the Obligations. ANY AND ALL RIGHTS TO REQUIRE LENDER TO EXERCISE ITS RIGHTS OR REMEDIES WITH RESPECT TO ANY OTHER COLLATERAL WHICH SECURES THE OBLIGATIONS, PRIOR TO EXERCISING ITS RIGHT OF SETOFF WITH RESPECT TO SUCH DEPOSITS, CREDITS OR OTHER PROPERTY OF BORROWER ARE HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVED.

12.11    Escrow; Borrower Setoff.

(a)    If at any time one or more indemnification claims that shall have been asserted in good faith by Borrower against Lender pursuant to Section 8.03 or Section 11.02(a)(x) or (a)(y) of the Stock Purchase Agreement (any such claim, a “Borrower SPA Claim”) shall be pending and unresolved, then for so long as any Borrower SPA Claims remain pending and unresolved, such amount, if any, of the principal payments required to be made by Borrower to Lender hereunder in respect of the Term Loan (including, for the avoidance of doubt, mandatory prepayments pursuant to Section 2.6) the making of which would, immediately after giving effect thereto, cause the amount of all pending and unresolved Borrower SPA Claims to exceed the outstanding principal amount of the Term Loan, together with interest accruing hereunder on such principal amounts, shall not be made to Lender but shall instead be deposited to an escrow account to be established at a third party financial institution by the parties hereto in accordance with customary escrow arrangements (all such payments in respect of principal and interest so deposited, “Escrowed Amounts”); provided, that upon such deposit, Borrower’s obligation to make such payments of principal and interest to Lender shall be deemed satisfied; provided further, that the outstanding principal owing to Lender under this Agreement shall not be reduced by the Escrowed Amount. Promptly following the resolution (in whole or in part) (a “Resolution”), through negotiations or litigation in an appropriate court of jurisdiction determined pursuant to Section 13.07 of the Stock Purchase Agreement, of any Borrower SPA Claim for which Escrowed Amounts exist, to the extent such Resolution is in favor of Lender, the Escrowed Amounts in respect thereof (including, for the avoidance of doubt, amounts paid by Borrower into escrow in respect of interest and any earnings accrued upon funds in escrow) shall be released to Lender and the outstanding principal owing to Lender under this Agreement shall be reduced by the amount so released (other than amounts reflecting interest paid by Borrower on the escrowed principal and any earnings accrued upon funds in escrow). Promptly following the Resolution of any Borrower SPA Claim for which Escrowed Amounts exist, to the extent such Resolution is in favor of Borrower, (i) the Escrowed Amounts in respect thereof shall be released to Borrower and (ii) the amount of such Escrowed Amounts (other than amounts reflecting interest paid by Borrower on the escrowed principal and any earnings accrued upon funds in escrow) so released to Borrower shall constitute a set off against any liability or obligation of Borrower in respect of the principal amount of the Term Loan.

(b)    If at any time one or more indemnification claims that shall have been asserted in good faith by Borrower against Lender pursuant to Section 11.02(a)(z) of the Stock Purchase Agreement based upon a payment by Borrower or any of its subsidiaries to a counterparty of a Shared Liability (a “Section 12.11(b) Indemnity Claim”), and if the Section 12.11(b) Indemnity Claim exceeds the sum of the remaining Holdback Amount and the Additional Holdback Amount, if any (each such term as defined in the Stock Purchase Agreement) pursuant to Sections 2.06 and 11.02(a)(ii) of the Stock Purchase Agreement (any such excess being referred to as the “Setoff Amount”), Borrower shall give Lender written notice thereof (a “Set-Off Notice”), which Set-Off Notice shall set forth the Setoff Amount. If Borrower delivers a Set-Off Notice, the outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest owing to Lender under this Agreement shall be reduced by the Set-Off Amount set forth in such Set-Off Notice, with such Set-Off Amount

applied first against accrued and unpaid interest under this Agreement and second against the outstanding principal amount of the Term Loan (and against the scheduled installments thereof in the direct order of maturity). The Set-Off Amount so applied to the Term Loan balance shall be deemed to have been paid and satisfied in full, and such offset shall be deemed effective as of the date of the Set-Off Notice.
