SECTION 1.    TERM

Lender’s commitment to make Loans (as defined below) pursuant to the terms of this Agreement (the “Commitment”) shall commence as of the Effective Date and shall continue thereafter until August 10, 2022 (the “Maturity Date”), at which time the Commitment shall terminate and all Indebtedness (as defined below) of Borrower to Lender shall be due and payable.

2.2    UCC Terms. Unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, terms used in this Agreement that are not capitalized but that are defined in the UCC will have the meanings ascribed to them in the UCC.

SECTION 3.    LINE OF CREDIT LOANS

3.1    Primary Line of Credit Loan.

(a)    Subject to the terms and conditions and relying upon the representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, Lender agrees to make loans (the “Primary Loans”) to Borrower at any time or from time to time on or after the Effective Date up to and including the day immediately preceding the Maturity Date in an aggregate principal amount not exceeding, at any one time outstanding, the lesser of (i) the Borrowing Base (as described in Section 3.1(c) of this Agreement) and (ii) Three Million Dollars ($3,000,000) (collectively, the “Primary Loans Limit”). If Lender and Borrower mutually agree in writing, the Primary Loan Limit may be increased up to a maximum of Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000). The obligations of Borrower to repay the unpaid principal amount of the Primary Loans and to pay interest on the unpaid principal amount thereof will be evidenced in part by a revolving credit note (the “Primary Note”) of Borrower in substantially the form attached as Exhibit A to this Agreement. Borrower shall use the proceeds of the Primary Loans for acquisition of inventory and other working capital purposes, and for no other purposes.

(b)    Borrower shall provide Lender written notice of each request for a Primary Loan, which written notice shall include the amount of the requested Primary Loan and a copy of the most recent Monthly Availability Report, as that term is defined in Section 3.1(c) below. If the amount of the requested Primary Loan is $1,000,000 or less and all other conditions precedent to funding the requested Primary

Loan are satisfied, then Lender shall disburse the funds to Borrower within five (5) business days of Lender’s receipt of the written notice of the request. If the amount of the requested Primary Loan is greater than $1,000,000 and all other conditions precedent to funding the requested Primary Loan are satisfied, then Lender shall disburse the funds to Borrower within ten (10) business days of Lender’s receipt of the written notice of the request. Lender shall not be required to fund any Primary Loan to Borrower if: (i) Lender has already made a Primary Loan in the calendar month in which Lender would be required to fund the requested Primary Loan pursuant to this Section 3.1(b); or (ii) the amount of the requested Primary Loan is less than $100,000, unless the amount of Primary Loans available for disbursement to Borrower based on the Primary Loan Limit at the time of the request is less than $100,000, in which case Lender shall be required to fund the requested Primary Loan so long as the amount thereof, together with all then outstanding Primary Loans, is not less than the then applicable Primary Loan Limit.

(c)    “Borrowing Base” shall be equal to the sum of: (i) ninety percent (90%) of the value of Borrower’s Qualified Accounts utilizing the average of a trailing three (3) months of actual book value, plus (ii) ninety percent (90%) of the value of Borrower’s Inventory, utilizing the average of a trailing three (3) months of actual book value, plus (iii) ninety percent (90%) of the value of Borrower’s Prepaid Inventory, utilizing the average of a trailing three (3) months of actual book value. If more than ninety (90) days have passed since Borrower acquired an item of Prepaid Inventory and that item of Prepaid Inventory has not arrived at or been delivered to Borrower’s Premises, then the value of that item of Prepaid Inventory may not be used in calculating the Borrowing Base unless and until it reaches Borrower’s Premises, at which time the item of Prepaid Inventory shall cease to be Prepaid Inventory and shall constitute Inventory. At the time of each request for a Primary Loan and in any event on or before the 20^th day of each calendar month, Borrower shall provide Lender with a report as of the first day of such month (the “Monthly Availability Report”) setting forth a calculation of the Borrowing Base and including the information required by Section 7.1(i). Borrower’s calculation of the Borrowing Base as stated in a Monthly Availability Report shall be conclusive unless Lender provides Borrower with written notice objecting to Borrower’s calculation within five (5) business day of Lender’s receipt of the Monthly Availability Report.

(d)    If the Borrowing Base calculated in any Monthly Availability Report is less than the sum of all Primary Loans outstanding, Borrower shall, within 45 days of delivery of the Monthly Availability Report, repay to Lender, in funds immediately available, the amount of such excess together with all accrued interest on the amount of such repayment.

(e)    With respect to all accounts from time to time scheduled, listed or referred to in any Monthly Availability Report or in any other certificate, statement or report delivered to Lender as Qualified Accounts, Borrower warrants and represents to Lender that:

(i)    the accounts meet all specifications applicable to Qualified Accounts;

(ii)    the accounts are genuine, are in all respects what they purport to be, and are not evidenced by a note, instrument or judgment; and

(iii)    there are no facts, events or occurrences which in any way impair the validity or enforcement of any account or tend to reduce the amount payable under any account as shown on statements delivered to Lender with respect to any accounts.

2

3.2    Secondary Line of Credit Loan.

(a)    Subject to the terms and conditions and relying upon the representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, Lender agrees to make loans (the “Secondary Loans”) to Borrower at any time or from time to time on or after the Effective Date up to and including the day immediately preceding the Maturity Date in an aggregate principal amount not exceeding, at any one time outstanding, Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($200,000) (the “Secondary Loans Limit”). Borrower may borrow, repay and reborrow the Secondary Loans on a revolving basis, which means that there shall be available for disbursement to Borrower at all times during the term of this Agreement Secondary Loans in an amount equal to $200,000 minus the principal amount of Borrower’s then outstanding Secondary Loans. The obligations of Borrower to repay the Secondary Loans and to pay interest on the unpaid principal amount thereof will be evidenced in part by a revolving credit note (the “Secondary Note”) of Borrower in substantially the form attached as Exhibit B to this Agreement. Borrower shall use the proceeds of the Secondary Loans for working capital purposes, and for no other purposes.

(b)    Borrower shall provide Lender with written notice of each request for a Secondary Loan, which written notice shall include the amount of the requested Secondary Loan. If all conditions precedent to funding the requested Secondary Loan are satisfied, Lender shall disburse the Secondary Loan to Borrower within five (5) business days of Lender’s receipt of the written notice of the request. Lender shall not be required to make a Secondary Loan to Borrower if: (i) Lender has made a Secondary Loan in the calendar month in which Lender would be required to fund the requested Secondary Loan pursuant to this Section 3.2(b); or (ii) the amount of the requested Secondary Loan is less than $100,000, unless the amount of Secondary Loans available for disbursement to Borrower at the time of the request is less than $100,000, in which case Lender shall be required to make the requested Secondary Loan to Borrower so long as the amount thereof, together with all then outstanding Secondary Loans, is not less than the Secondary Loan Limit.

3.3    Repayment of Loans. The entire outstanding principal amount of, and all accrued and unpaid interest on, the Primary Loans and the Secondary Loans (each a “Loan” and together the “Loans”) shall be due and payable on the Maturity Date. Borrower may prepay all or any portion of the Indebtedness owed under either the Primary Loans or the Secondary Loans at any time, on the following conditions: (1) no more than one prepayment with respect to each of such Loans (in other words, a total of two prepayments each month) may occur within a calendar month; (2) the amount of each prepayment must be greater than or equal to $100,000, unless the outstanding principal amount of the Loan with respect to which the prepayment is being made is less than $100,000, in which case the amount of the prepayment must be equal to the outstanding principal amount of the Loan; and (3) the prepayment must be accompanied by all accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount of the Loan being prepaid.

3.4    Interest Rate.

(a)    The outstanding principal balances of the Loans shall accrue interest at a fixed rate of fifteen percent (15%) per annum until paid in full; provided that, if Borrower fails to perform any Obligation within fifteen (15) days after Lender notifies Borrower of the failure to perform the Obligation when due with reasonable particularity, then the outstanding principal balances of the Loans shall accrue interest at a fixed rate of twenty percent (20%) per annum (the “Default Rate”) until the earlier of the payment in full of the Loans or the date on which the failure to perform the Obligation is cured to the reasonable satisfaction of Lender.

3

(b)    Interest on the Loans shall be computed on the basis of a 365-day year. In computing interest on any Loan, the date of the making of the Loan shall be included and the date of payment shall be excluded if payment is received on or before Noon, Boca Raton time.

3.5    Payment of Interest. Interest accrued on the principal amount of the Loans shall be due and payable on the tenth (10^th) day of each calendar month following the month during which such interest accrued; all accrued interest that is unpaid as of the Maturity Date shall become immediately due and payable on the Maturity Date without notice, presentment or demand of any kind.

3.6    Payments. All payments to be made in respect of principal, interest, fees or other amounts due from Borrower under this Agreement or under the Notes are payable at noon, prevailing time in Boca Raton, Florida, on the day when due, without presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind, all of which are expressly waived, and an action for the payments will accrue immediately. All such payments must be made to Lender in U.S. dollars and in funds immediately available at such office, without setoff, counterclaim or other deduction of any nature. All such payments shall be applied first to costs and expenses due to Lender, then to accrued interest and then to principal.

3.7    Indemnity. Borrower will indemnify Lender against any loss or expense which Lender sustains or incurs as a consequence of an Event of Default, including, without limitation, any failure of Borrower to pay when due (by demand or otherwise) any principal, interest or any other amount due under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, but excluding any loss or expense that Lender sustains or incurs to the extent arising or resulting from Lender’s gross negligence, willful misconduct, legal violation, or breach of this Agreement. If Lender sustains or incurs any such loss or expense, it will, from time to time, notify Borrower in writing of the amount determined in good faith by Lender (which determination will be presumptively deemed correct absent manifest error), to be necessary to indemnify Lender for the loss or expense. Any amount payable to Lender under this Section will bear interest at the Default Rate until paid. In no event will Borrower have any liability for any lost profits or any indirect, special, incidental, consequential or punitive damages.

SECTION 4.    CONDITIONS PRECEDENT TO THE MAKING OF EACH LOAN.

Lender’s obligation to make a disbursement of a Primary Loan or a Secondary Loan (a “Loan Advance”) under this Agreement shall be subject to the performance by Borrower of its Obligations to be performed hereunder and to the fulfillment of all of the conditions set forth in this Agreement and in the other Loan Documents, including without limitation, the following:

SECTION 7.    BORROWER’S COVENANTS.

7.1    Covenants. Borrower covenants and agrees with Lender that, while this Agreement is in effect and until payment in full of the Indebtedness, unless otherwise consented to in writing by Lender:

(a)    Preservation of Existence, Franchise and Licenses. Borrower will maintain its corporate existence, rights, franchises, licenses and permits in full force and effect so long as maintaining such corporate existence, rights, franchises, licenses, and permits in full force and effect is necessary or advisable for the reasonable and prudent conduct of the Company’s business. Borrower will remain in good standing in its jurisdiction of incorporation and will qualify and remain qualified as a foreign corporation in each jurisdiction in which failure to receive or retain qualification would result in a Material Adverse Change.

(b)    Insurance. Borrower will maintain, with financially sound and reputable insurers, insurance with respect to its properties and business and against such liabilities, casualties and contingencies and of such types and in such amounts as is reasonably satisfactory to Lender and as is customary in the case of corporations or other entities engaged in the same or similar business or having similar properties similarly situated, provided that Borrower shall insure the Collateral on a replacement cost basis. Risk of loss of, damage to or destruction of the Collateral is on Borrower. Each of Borrower’s policies of insurance shall contain lender loss payable/mortgagee clauses in favor of Lender, shall insure Lender regardless of the conduct or neglect of Borrower, and shall contain provision for written notification of Lender at least thirty (30) days prior to termination of such policy. If Borrower fails to effect and keep in full force and effect such insurance or fails to pay the premiums when due, Lender may (but shall not be obligated to) do so for the account of Borrower and add the cost thereof to the Obligations. Borrower assigns and sets over to Lender (as its interest may appear) all monies, up to the amount of any unpaid Indebtedness, which may become payable on account of such insurance and directs the insurers to pay Lender (as its interest may appear) any amount so due. Lender is irrevocably appointed attorney-in-fact of Borrower to endorse any draft or check which may be payable to Borrower in order to collect the proceeds of such insurance. Any money that Lender obtains on account of Borrower’s insurance shall be applied to the Indebtedness owed under the Loans. Any money that Lender receives in excess of the outstanding Indebtedness shall promptly be distributed to Borrower. Borrower shall furnish to Lender, on request of Lender, reports on each existing insurance policy showing such information as Lender may reasonably request, including without limitation the following: (i) the name of the insurer; (ii) the risks insured; (iii) the amount of the policy; (iv) the properties insured; (v) the then-current property values on the basis of which insurance has been obtained; and (vi) the expiration date of the policy.

(c)    Financial Accounting Practices. Borrower will make and keep books, records and accounts which, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect its transactions and dispositions of its assets and will maintain an adequate system of internal accounting controls.

(d)    Visitation. Borrower will permit such persons as Lender may designate from time to time to visit and inspect any of the properties of Borrower, to examine, and to make copies and extracts from, the books and records of Borrower and to discuss its affairs with its officers and employees and its independent accountants, at such reasonable times and as often as Lender may reasonably request.

(e)    Compliance with Laws. Borrower shall comply with all applicable Laws.

(f)    Pension Plans. Borrower shall make contributions to all of Borrower’s Plans in a timely manner and comply with all material requirements of ERISA which relate to such Plans.

9

(g)    Maintenance of Patents, Trademarks, etc. Borrower shall maintain in full force and effect all patents, trademarks, trade names, copyrights, licenses, franchises, permits and other authorizations necessary for the ownership and operation of its properties and business if the failure to so maintain the same would substantially interfere with the normal operations of Borrower or could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Change.

(h)    Notifications. Borrower shall promptly inform Lender in writing of: (a) Borrower forming any Subsidiary; (b) any amendment of Borrower’s Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; (c) the existence or threat of any material proceeding by or before any Official Body, including without limitation, (i) the Food and Drug Administration issuing an enforcement notice to Borrower and (ii) the Occupational Safety and Health Administration issuing a notice of violation to Borrower; (d) all legal actions filed against Borrower; (e) any Event of Default or Potential Default; (f) any Material Adverse Change.

(i)    Monthly Availability Reports. On or before the 20^th day of each month, Borrower shall provide Seller with a Monthly Availability Report, which shall include the following:

(j)    Annual Financial Reports. As soon as practicable, and in any event within one hundred and twenty (120) days after the close of each fiscal year of Borrower, Borrower will furnish to Lender statements of income, retained earnings and cash flow of Borrower for such fiscal year and a balance sheet of Borrower as of the close of such fiscal year, and notes to each, all in reasonable detail, setting forth in comparative form the corresponding figures for the preceding fiscal year, with such statements and balance sheet to be reviewed by independent certified public accountants of recognized standing selected by Borrower.

(k)    Guaranty. If Borrower establishes any Subsidiaries, then Borrower shall cause any such Subsidiaries to execute an agreement guaranteeing the Loans in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Lender.

10

(l)    Other Agreements. Borrower shall materially comply with all terms and conditions of all other agreements, whether now or hereafter existing, between Borrower and any other party and notify Lender promptly in writing of any material default in connection with any other such agreements that, in Borrower’s reasonable judgment, could result in a loss or claim against Borrower in excess of $50,000.

(m)    Taxes, Charges and Liens. Borrower shall pay and discharge when due all of its indebtedness and other obligations, including without limitation all assessments, taxes, governmental charges, levies and liens, of every kind and nature, imposed on Borrower or its properties, income, or profits, prior to the date on which penalties would attach, and all lawful claims that, if unpaid, might become a lien or charge on any of Borrower’s properties, income, or profits. Provided however, Borrower shall not be required to pay and discharge any such assessment, tax, charge, levy, lien or claim so long as (i) the legality of the same shall be contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings, and (ii) Borrower shall have established on its books adequate reserves with respect to such contested assessment, tax, charge, levy, lien, or claim in accordance with GAAP.

(n)    Further Information. Borrower will promptly furnish to Lender such other information, and in such form, as Lender may reasonably request from time to time.

Borrower shall not grant any security interest in Borrower’s accounts receivable, Inventory, Prepaid Inventory or other Collateral except in favor of Lender.
