(b) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; and

9. Additional Term Loan Debt.

(a) Upon Agent’s receipt of evidence that the Borrower has received the Additional Term Loan Debt described in Section 6(b) above, all references to “$10,000,000” set forth in Section 9(a) of the Eleventh Amendment and Section 7 of that certain Twelfth Amendment to Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as November 4, 2016, by and among Borrower, Agent and Lenders party thereto, shall be replaced with “$6,000,000” and any and all requirements or conditions set forth in the foregoing provisions shall be deemed fully satisfied.

(b) Agent and Lenders hereby agree not to exercise any remedies with respect to the cash proceeds of the Additional Term Loan Debt that are deposited in the Master Account (the “Additional Term Loan Proceeds”), including but not limited to exercising rights of setoff or exerting control over such Additional Term Loan Proceeds pursuant any Control Agreement unless there is an Event of Default after the Effective Date of this Amendment and the Term Loan Agent consents to such exercise of remedies; provided that Borrower hereby agrees that Agent and Lenders will have no duty to advance funds under the Credit Agreement until the Borrower provides evidence, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Agent, that all of the Term Loan Proceeds have been spent by Borrower and the balance of funds in the Master Account is no greater than it was immediately before Borrower’s receipt of the Additional Term Loan Proceeds; provided, further, that any Additional Term Loan Proceeds not used by the Borrower by December 15, 2016 shall be used by Borrower to repay the Additional Term Loan Debt. The Term Loan Agent is an intended third-party beneficiary of this Section 9(b).

(c) In the event that Agent and/or Lenders foreclose on or otherwise obtain direct control over the Additional Term Loan Proceeds in contravention of the terms and conditions of this Section 9, the Additional Term Loan Proceeds shall be deemed to be held in trust by the Agent, Lenders or other custodian of such funds (as applicable) for the benefit solely of the lenders that funded the Additional Term Loan Debt described in Section 6(b) above, and the Additional Term Loan Proceeds shall be turned over to Term Loan Agent on demand and in the form received for distribution by Term Loan Agent to the lenders that funded the Additional Term Loan Debt. For the avoidance of doubt, as between the lenders that funded the Additional Term Loan Debt and the Agent, this Section 9 shall constitute a subordination agreement among lenders for purposes of applying 11 U.S.C. § 510(a).

10. Miscellaneous.

(c) Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed in any number of counterparts, and by the parties hereto on the same or separate counterparts, and each such counterpart, when executed and delivered, shall be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same Amendment. Delivery of an executed counterpart of this Amendment by telefacsimile or other electronic method of transmission shall be equally effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart of this Agreement.
