WHEREAS, Borrower and Bank are party to that certain Loan and Security Agreement dated as of October 7, 2014 as amended by a First Amendment to Loan Agreement dated as of April 21, 2015 (as amended, modified, supplemented or restated and in effect from time to time, the “Loan Agreement”); and

WHEREAS, Borrower has notified Bank that pursuant to a certain Stipulated Final Judgment and Order with an effective date of July 6, 2015 (being the date entered into the docket) attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Order”), Borrower has been ordered to pay to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (“CFPB”) a $1,200,000 civil penalty in three installments of $400,000 (collectively, the “Order Payments”), to reserve or deposit into a segregated deposit account $55,000 to be used for consumer refunds, with any surplus being paid to the CFPB, and to comply with certain other obligations; and

WHEREAS, the last $400,000 installment (the “Last Installment”) is due sixty (60) days from the effective date of the Order; and

WHEREAS, the failure to discharge, satisfy or pay the Order within thirty (30) days of the effective date would constitute an Event of Default under Section 8.7 of the Loan Agreement; and

WHEREAS, Section 8.7 also provides that no Advances will be made prior to the satisfaction, payment or discharge of the Order; and

WHEREAS, Borrower has requested that Bank waive the requirement under Section 8.7 that the Order be discharged, paid or satisfied within thirty (30) days as to the Last Installment which is not due until sixty (60) days after the effective date of the Order and that Advances be made prior to the date the Order is satisfied, paid and discharged so long as Borrower otherwise satisfies the applicable conditions to Advances as set for in the Loan Agreement.

1. Capitalized Terms. All capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the same meaning herein as in the Loan Agreement.

2. Waiver. Subject to the satisfaction of all of the conditions precedent described in Section 3 below, Bank hereby waives, as to the last installment due pursuant to the Order, the


requirement under Section 8.7 that the Order be discharged, paid or satisfied within thirty (30) days and agrees that Advances may be made prior to the date the Order is satisfied, paid and discharged so long as Borrower otherwise satisfies the applicable conditions to Advances as set for in the Loan Agreement, and provided that Borrower pays all of the Order Payments on or prior to the date such Order Payments are due pursuant to the Order.

4. Representations and Warranties. Borrower hereby represents and warrants to Bank as follows:

(a) This Waiver is, and each other Loan Document to which it is or will be a party, when executed and delivered by each Credit Party that is a party thereto, will be the legally valid and binding obligation of such Credit Party, enforceable against such Credit Party in accordance with its respective terms, except as enforcement may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws relating to or limiting creditors’ rights generally and equitable principals (whether enforcement is sought by proceedings in equity or at law).

(b) Its representations and warranties set forth in this Waiver, the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which it is a party are (i) to the extent qualified by materiality, true and correct in all respects (except to the extent that such representations and warranties relate solely to an earlier date, in which case such representations and warranties shall have been true and correct in material respects as of such earlier date) and (ii) to the extent not qualified by materiality, true and correct in all material respects, in each case, on and as of the date hereof, as though made on such date (except to the extent that such representations and warranties relate solely to an earlier date, in which case such representations and warranties shall have been true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier date).

6. Choice of Law. THIS WAIVER AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND SHALL BE CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. Each party hereto submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the State and Federal courts in the Southern District of the State of New York; provided, however, that nothing in the Loan Agreement as amended by this Waiver shall be deemed to operate to preclude Bank 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 Bank.

7. Counterpart Execution. This Waiver may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties on separate counterparts, each of which, when executed and delivered, shall be deemed to be an original, and all of which, when taken together, shall constitute but one and the same Waiver. Delivery of an executed counterpart of this Waiver by telefacsimile or by e-mail transmission of an Adobe file format document (also known as a PDF file) shall be equally as effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart of this Waiver. Any party delivering an executed counterpart of this Waiver by telefacsimile or by e-mail transmission of an Adobe file format document (also known as a PDF file) also shall deliver an original executed counterpart of this Waiver but the failure to deliver an original executed counterpart shall not affect the validity, enforceability, and binding effect of this Waiver.


8. Effect on Loan Documents.

(a) The waiver set forth herein shall be limited precisely as written and shall not be deemed (a) to be a forbearance, waiver, or modification of any other term or condition of the Loan Agreement or of any Loan Documents or to prejudice any right or remedy which Bank may now have or may have in the future under or in connection with the Loan Documents; (b) to be a consent to any future consent or modification, forbearance, or waiver to the Loan Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to any waiver of any of the provisions thereof; or (c) to limit or impair Bank’s right to demand strict performance of all terms and covenants as of any date. Each Credit Party hereby ratifies and reaffirms its obligations under the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which it is a party, as amended hereby, and agrees that none of the waivers to the Loan Agreement set forth in this Waiver shall impair such Credit Party’s obligations under the Loan Documents or Bank’s rights under the Loan Documents. Each Credit Party hereby further ratifies and reaffirms the validity and enforceability of all of the Liens heretofore granted, pursuant to and in connection with the Guaranty or any other Loan Document to Bank, as collateral security for the obligations under the Loan Documents, in accordance with their respective terms, and acknowledges that all of such Liens, and all collateral heretofore pledged as security for such obligations, continues to be and remain collateral for such obligations from and after the date hereof. Each Credit Party acknowledges and agrees that the Loan Agreement and each other Loan Document is still in full force and effect, as amended hereby, and acknowledges as of the date hereof that such Credit Party has no defenses to enforcement of the Loan Documents. Each Credit Party waives any and all defenses to enforcement of the Loan Agreement as amended hereby and each other Loan Documents that might otherwise be available as a result of this Waiver.

(b) This Waiver is a Loan Document.

9. Entire Agreement. This Waiver constitutes the entire agreement between the Loan Parties and Bank pertaining to the subject matter contained herein and supersedes all prior agreements, understandings, offers and negotiations, oral or written, with respect hereto and no extrinsic evidence whatsoever may be introduced in any judicial or arbitration proceeding, if any, involving this Waiver.

10. Severability. The provisions of this Waiver are severable, and if any clause or provision shall be held invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part in any jurisdiction, then such invalidity or unenforceability shall affect only such clause or provision, or part thereof, in such jurisdiction and shall not in any manner affect such clause or provision in any other jurisdiction, or any other clause or provision in this Waiver in any jurisdiction.
