Loan and Security Agreement

This Loan and Security Agreement (as it may be amended, restated or otherwise modified from time to time, this “Agreement”) is entered into as of December 26, 2023 among (1) Siena Lending Group LLC, together with its successors and assigns (“Lender”), (2) Salem Media Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”), (3) the Subsidiaries of Parent identified on the signature pages hereof as “Borrowers”, and those additional entities that hereafter become parties to this Agreement from time to time as Borrowers in accordance with the terms hereof (together with Parent, each, a “Borrower” and individually and collectively, jointly and severally, the “Borrowers”) and (4) each of the Persons signatory to this Agreement from time to time as guarantors (each a “Guarantor” and collectively, the “Guarantors”). The Schedules and Exhibits to this Agreement are an integral part of this Agreement and are incorporated herein by reference. Terms used, but not defined elsewhere, in this Agreement are defined in Schedule B.

1. LOANS AND LETTERS OF CREDIT.

1.1 Amount of Revolving Loans / Letters of Credit. Subject to the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement, including Sections 1.3 and 1.6, Lender shall, from time to time prior to the Maturity Date, at Borrowing Agent’s request, (i) make revolving loans to Borrowers (“Revolving Loans”), and (ii) make, or cause or permit a Participant (as defined in Section 10.10) to make, letters of credit (“Letters of Credit”) available to Borrowers; provided, that after giving effect to each such Revolving Loan and each such Letter of Credit, (A) the outstanding balance of all Revolving Loans and the Letter of Credit Balance will not exceed the lesser of (x) the Maximum Revolving Facility Amount, minus Reserves, minus the Availability Block and (y) the Borrowing Base, and (B) none of the other Loan Limits for Revolving Loans will be exceeded. All Revolving Loans shall be made in and repayable in Dollars. Revolving Loans may be repaid and, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, reborrowed at any time during the term of this Agreement.

1.2 Reserves re Revolving Loans / Letters of Credit. Lender may, with or without notice to Borrowing Agent, from time to time establish and revise reserves against the Borrowing Base or the Maximum Revolving Facility Amount in such amounts and of such types as Lender deems appropriate in its Permitted Discretion (“Reserves”); provided that the amount of any Reserve shall have a reasonable relationship to the event, condition, circumstance or fact that is the basis for such Reserve and shall not be duplicative of any other Reserve established and currently maintained. Such Reserves shall be available for Borrowing Agent to view in ABLServe simultaneously with the imposition thereof; provided, that, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Lender shall provide email notice advising Borrowing Agent of such Reserves two (2) Business Days prior to the imposition of such Reserves (during which period (x) Lender shall be available to discuss any such proposed Reserves with the Borrowing Agent to afford the Borrowing Agent an opportunity to take such action as may be required so that the event, condition or circumstance that is the basis for such Reserve no longer exists in the manner and to the extent satisfactory to the Lender in its Permitted Discretion and (y) Borrowers may not obtain any new Revolving Loan or Letter of Credit to the extent that, after giving pro forma effect to such proposed Reserves, such Revolving Loan or Letter of Credit would cause the outstanding balance of all Revolving Loans and the Letter of Credit Balance to exceed the lesser of (a) the Maximum Revolving Facility Amount minus Reserves minus the Availability Block and (b) the Borrowing Base). Without limiting the foregoing, references to Reserves in this Agreement shall include the Dilution Reserve. In no event shall the establishment of a Reserve in respect of a particular actual or contingent liability obligate Lender to make advances to pay such liability or otherwise obligate Lender with respect thereto.

1.3 Protective Advances. Any contrary provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document notwithstanding, Lender is hereby authorized by Borrowers at any time during the existence of a Default or an Event of Default, regardless of (a) whether any of the other applicable conditions precedent set forth in Section 1.6 hereof have not been satisfied or the commitment of Lender to make Loans hereunder has been terminated for any reason, or (b) any other contrary provision of this Agreement, to make Revolving Loans to, or for the benefit of, Borrowers that Lender, in its sole discretion, deems necessary or desirable (i) to preserve or protect the Collateral, or any portion thereof, (ii) to enhance the likelihood of, or maximize the amount of, repayment of the Loans and other Obligations, or (iii) to pay any other amount chargeable to Borrowers pursuant to the terms of this Agreement (the “Protective Advances”). Any contrary provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document notwithstanding, Lender may direct the proceeds of any Protective Advance to Borrowers or to such other Person as Lender determines in its sole discretion. All Protective Advances shall be payable immediately upon demand.

1.4 Notice of Borrowing; Manner of Revolving Loan Borrowing. Borrowing Agent shall request each Revolving Loan by an Authorized Officer submitting such request via ABLServe (or, if requested by Lender, by delivering, in writing or via an Approved Electronic Communication, a Notice of Borrowing substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto) (each such request a “Notice of Borrowing”). Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including Sections 1.1 and 1.6, Lender shall, except as provided in Section 1.3, deliver the amount of the Revolving Loan requested in the Notice of Borrowing for credit to any account of Borrowers at a bank in the United States of America as Borrowing Agent may specify (provided that such account must be one identified on Section 39 of the Information Certificate and approved by Lender as an account to be used for funding of loan proceeds) by wire transfer of immediately available funds (a) on the same day if the Notice of Borrowing is received by Lender on or before 12:00 p.m. Eastern Time on a Business Day, or (b) on the immediately following Business Day if the Notice of Borrowing is received by Lender after 12:00 p.m. Eastern Time on a Business Day, or is received by Lender on any day that is not a Business Day. Lender shall charge to the Lender’s usual and customary fees for the wire transfer of each Loan.

1.5 Other Provisions Applicable to Letters of Credit. Lender shall, on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement (including the terms and conditions set forth in Section 1.1 and Section 1.6), make Letters of Credit available to Borrowers either by issuing them, or by causing other financial institutions to issue them supported by Lender’s guaranty or indemnification; provided, that after giving effect to each Letter of Credit, the Letter of Credit Balance will not exceed the Letter of Credit Limit. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement, the parties agree that in connection with Lender’s option to make Letters of Credit available to Borrowers by causing other financial institutions to issue Letters of Credit, Lender may cause or permit any Participant under this Agreement to cause other financial institutions to issue such Letters of Credit and thereafter (a) all such Letters of Credit shall be treated for all purposes under this Agreement as if such Letters of Credit were requested by Borrowing Agent and made available by Lender, (b) such Participant’s support of such Letters of Credit in the form of a guaranty or indemnification shall be treated as if such support had been made by Lender, (c) Borrowers hereby unconditionally and irrevocably, jointly and severally agree to pay to Lender the amount of each payment or disbursement made by such Participant or the applicable issuer under any such Letter of Credit honoring any demand for payment thereunder upon demand in accordance with the reimbursement provisions of this Section 1.5 and agrees that such reimbursement obligations of Borrowers constitute Obligations under this Agreement, and (d) any and all amounts paid by such Participant or the applicable issuer in respect of any such Letter of Credit will, at the election of Lender, be treated for all purposes as a Revolving Loan, and be payable, in the same manner as a Revolving Loan. Borrowers agree to execute all documentation reasonably required by Lender and/or the issuer of any Letter of Credit in connection with any such Letter of Credit. Borrowers hereby unconditionally and irrevocably, jointly and severally agree to reimburse Lender and/or the applicable issuer for each payment or disbursement made by Lender and/or the applicable issuer under any Letter of Credit honoring any demand for payment made thereunder, in each case on the date that such payment or disbursement is made. Borrowers’ reimbursement obligations hereunder shall be irrevocable and unconditional under all circumstances, including (w) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (x) the existence of any claim, set-off, defense or other right which any Loan Party may have at any time against a beneficiary

-2-

named in a Letter of Credit, any transferee of any Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such transferee may be acting), Lender, any Participant, the applicable issuer under any Letter of Credit, or any other Person, whether in connection with any Letter of Credit, this Agreement, any other Loan Document, the transactions contemplated herein or any unrelated transactions (including any underlying transaction between any Loan Party and the beneficiary named in any Letter of Credit), (y) any lack of validity, sufficiency or genuineness of any document which Lender or the applicable issuer has determined complies on its face with the terms of the applicable Letter of Credit, even if such document should later prove to have been forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein shall have been untrue or inaccurate in any respect, or (z) the surrender or impairment of any security for the performance or observance of any of the terms hereof. Any and all amounts paid by Lender and any Participant in respect of a Letter of Credit will, at the election of Lender, be treated for all purposes as a Revolving Loan, and bear interest, and be payable, in the same manner as a Revolving Loan.

1.6 Conditions of Making the Loans and Issuing Letters of Credit. Lender’s obligation to make any Loan or issue or cause any Letter of Credit to be issued under this Agreement is subject to the following conditions precedent (as well as any other conditions set forth in this Agreement or any other Loan Document), all of which must be satisfied in a manner acceptable to Lender (and as applicable, pursuant to documentation which in each case is in form and substance acceptable to Lender) as of each day that such Loan is made or such Letter of Credit is issued, as applicable:

(a) Loans and Letters of Credit Made and/or Issued on the Closing Date: With respect to Loans made, and/or Letters of Credit issued, on the Closing Date, (i) each applicable Loan Party shall have duly executed and/or delivered, or, as applicable, shall have caused such other applicable Persons to have duly executed and/or delivered, to Lender such agreements, instruments, documents and/or certificates listed on the closing checklist attached hereto as Exhibit B; (ii) Lender shall have completed its business and legal due diligence pertaining to the Loan Parties, their respective businesses and assets, with results thereof satisfactory to Lender in its sole discretion; (iii) Lender’s obligations and commitments under this Agreement shall have been approved by Lender’s Credit Committee; (iv) after giving effect to such Loans and Letters of Credit, as well as to the payment of all critical trade payables older than sixty (60) days past due and the consummation of all transactions contemplated hereby to occur on the Closing Date, closing costs and any book overdraft, Excess Availability shall be no less than $4,000,000; (v) [reserved]; (vi) [reserved]; (vii) Borrowers shall have paid to Lender all fees due on the date hereof, and shall have paid or reimbursed Lender for all of Lender’s reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs, charges and expenses incurred through the Closing Date (and in connection herewith, Borrowers hereby irrevocably authorize Lender to charge such fees, costs, charges and expenses as Revolving Loans); and (viii) Lender shall have received (A) an opinion of the Loan Parties’ counsel in form and substance satisfactory to Lender and (B) an opinion of the Loan Parties’ FCC counsel in form and substance satisfactory to Lender; and

(b) All Loans and/or Letters of Credit: With respect to Loans made and/or Letters of Credit issued, on the Closing Date and/or at any time thereafter, in addition to the conditions specified in clause (a) above as applicable, (i) Borrowers shall have provided to Lender such information as Lender may require in order to determine the Borrowing Base, as of such borrowing or issue date, after giving effect to such Loans and/or Letters of Credit, as applicable; (ii) each applicable Loan Party shall have duly executed and/or delivered, or, as applicable, shall have caused such other applicable Persons to have duly executed and/or delivered, to Lender such further agreements, instruments, documents, proxies and certificates as Lender may require in connection therewith; (iii) each of the representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement and in the other Loan Documents shall be true and correct in all material respects (without duplication of materiality qualifiers therein) as of the date such Loan is made and/or such Letter of Credit is issued (or to the extent any representations or warranties are expressly made solely as of an earlier date, such representations and warranties shall be true and correct in all material respects (without duplication of materiality qualifiers therein) as of such earlier date), both before and after giving effect thereto; and (iv) no Default or Event of Default shall be in existence, both before and after giving effect thereto.

1.7 Repayments.

(a) Revolving Loans/Letters of Credit. If at any time for any reason whatsoever (including without limitation as a result of currency fluctuations) (i) the sum of the outstanding balance of all Revolving Loans and the Letter of Credit Balance exceeds the lesser of (x) the Maximum Revolving Facility Amount and (y) the Borrowing Base, or (ii) any of the Loan Limits for Revolving Loans or Letters of Credit are exceeded, then in each case, Borrowers will immediately and jointly and severally pay to Lender such amounts (or, with respect to the Letter of Credit Balance, provide cash collateral to Lender in the manner set forth in clause (c) below) as shall cause Borrowers to eliminate such excess (such excess, an “Overadvance”).

(b) [Reserved].

(c) Maturity Date Payments / Cash Collateral. All remaining outstanding monetary Obligations (including, all accrued and unpaid fees described in the Fee Letter) shall be payable in full on the Maturity Date. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if, on the Maturity Date, there are any outstanding Letters of Credit, then on such date Borrowers shall provide to Lender cash collateral in an amount equal to 103% of the Letter of Credit Balance to secure all of the Obligations (including estimated out-of-pocket attorneys’ fees and other expenses) relating to said Letters of Credit, pursuant to a cash pledge agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender.

(d) Currency Due. If, notwithstanding the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, Lender receives any payment from or on behalf of Borrowers or any other Person in a currency other than the Currency Due, Lender may convert the payment (including the monetary proceeds of realization upon any Collateral and any funds then held in a cash collateral account) into the Currency Due at an exchange rate selected by Lender in the manner contemplated by Section 6.2(b) and Borrowers shall jointly and severally reimburse Lender on demand for all reasonable costs it incurs with respect thereto. To the extent permitted by law, the obligation shall be satisfied only to the extent of the amount actually received by Lender upon such conversion.

1.8 Prepayments / Voluntary Termination / Application of Prepayments.

(a) Certain Mandatory Prepayment Events. In each case subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, Borrowers shall be required to prepay the unpaid principal balance of the Revolving Loans within three (3) Business Days following the date of each and every Prepayment Event (and within three (3) Business Days following any date thereafter on which proceeds pertaining thereto are received by any Loan Party), in each case without any demand or notice from Lender or any other Person, all of which is hereby expressly waived by Borrowers, in the amount of 100% of the cash proceeds (net of documented reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the collection of such proceeds, in each case payable to Persons that are not Affiliates of any Loan Party) received by any Loan Party with respect to such Prepayment Event; provided, that with respect to a Prepayment Event of the type described in clauses (a) or (b) of the definition of Prepayment Event, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the extent that the proceeds received by such Person as a result of such Prepayment Event do not exceed $500,000 in the aggregate during any Fiscal Year and are actually applied within 180 days of such receipt to (x) replace the property or assets subject to such Prepayment Event with property and/or assets performing the same or similar functions, (y) repair, replace or reconstruct property and/or assets damaged by such Prepayment Event, or (z) purchase or construct other assets useful in the business of Parent and its Subsidiaries and not otherwise prohibited by the terms of this Agreement, such proceeds shall not be required to prepay the Loans pursuant to this Section 1.8(a) (pending such reinvestment such proceeds shall be held in a Blocked Account; provided to the extent such proceeds are not reinvested within such 180 day period, or any Default or Event of Default occurs during such period, Lender shall apply such proceeds as a prepayment of the Loans).

-4-

(b) Voluntary Termination of Loan Facilities. Borrowers may, on at least ten (10) Business Days prior and irrevocable written notice received by Lender, permanently terminate the Loan facilities by repaying all of the outstanding Obligations, including all principal, interest and fees with respect to the Revolving Loans and an Early Payment/Termination Premium in the amount specified in the paragraph under the heading “Early Prepayment/Termination Premium” in the Fee Letter; the foregoing notwithstanding, a Borrower may rescind such notice if it states that the proposed payment in full of the Obligations is to be made with the proceeds of third party Indebtedness and if the closing for such Indebtedness does not happen on or before the date of the proposed termination set forth in such notice (in which case, a new notice shall be required to be sent in connection with any subsequent termination). If, on the date of a voluntary termination pursuant to this Section 1.8(b), there are any outstanding Letters of Credit, then on such date, and as a condition precedent to such termination, Borrowers shall provide to Lender cash collateral in an amount equal to 103% of the Letter of Credit Balance to secure all of the Obligations (including estimated out-of-pocket attorneys’ fees and other expenses) relating to said Letters of Credit, pursuant to a cash pledge agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender. From and after such date of termination, Lender shall have no obligation whatsoever to extend any additional Loans or Letters of Credit and all of its lending commitments hereunder shall be terminated.

(c) Voluntary Prepayments. Borrowers may prepay the principal of any Revolving Loan at any time in whole or in part, without premium or penalty so long as there is no corresponding reduction of the commitments hereunder.

1.9 Obligations Unconditional.

(a) The payment and performance of all Obligations shall constitute the absolute and unconditional obligations of each Loan Party and shall be independent of any defense or rights of set-off, recoupment or counterclaim which any Loan Party or any other Person might otherwise have against Lender or any other Person. All payments required by this Agreement and/or the other Loan Documents shall be made in Dollars (unless payment in a different currency is expressly provided otherwise in the applicable Loan Document).

(b) If, at any time and from time to time after the Closing Date (or at any time before or after the Closing Date with respect to (x) the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, regulations, guidelines or directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith, or (y) all requests, rules, guidelines or directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States regulatory authorities, in each case for purposes of this clause (y) pursuant to Basel III, regardless of the date enacted, adopted or issued), (i) any change in any existing law, regulation, treaty or directive or in the interpretation or application thereof, (ii) any new law, regulation, treaty or directive enacted or application thereof, or (iii) compliance by Lender with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency (A) subjects Lender to any tax, levy, impost, deduction, assessment, charge or withholding of any kind whatsoever with respect to any Loan Document, or changes the basis of taxation of payments to Lender of any amount payable thereunder (other than (1) Indemnified Taxes, (2) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes and (3) Other Connection Taxes that are imposed on or measured by net income (however denominated) or that are franchise Taxes or branch profits Taxes), or (B) imposes on Lender any other condition or increased cost (other than Taxes) in connection with the transactions contemplated thereby or participations therein, and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to Lender of making or continuing any Loan or Letter of Credit or to reduce any amount receivable

-5-

hereunder or under any other Loan Documents, then, in any such case, Borrowers shall promptly and jointly and severally pay to Lender, when notified to do so by Lender, any additional amounts necessary to compensate Lender, for such additional cost or reduced amount as determined by Lender. Each such notice of additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section 1.9(b) submitted by Lender to Borrowing Agent shall, absent manifest error, be final, conclusive and binding for all purposes.

(c) This Section 1.9 shall remain operative even after the Termination Date and shall survive the payment in full of all of the Obligations.

1.10 Reversal of Payments. To the extent that any payment or payments made to or received by Lender pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside, or required to be repaid to any trustee, receiver or other Person under any state, federal or other bankruptcy or other such applicable law, then, to the extent thereof, such amounts (and all Liens, rights and remedies therefor) shall be revived as Obligations (secured by all such Liens) and continue in full force and effect under this Agreement and under the other Loan Documents as if such payment or payments had not been received by Lender. This Section 1.10 shall remain operative even after the Termination Date and shall survive the payment in full of all of the Obligations.

2. INTEREST AND FEES; LOAN ACCOUNT.

2.1 Interest.

(a) All Loans and other monetary Obligations shall bear interest at the interest rate(s) set forth in Section 3 of Schedule A, and accrued interest shall be payable (a) on the first day of each month in arrears, (b) upon a prepayment of such Loan in accordance with Section 1.8, and (c) on the Maturity Date; provided, that after the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, at Lender’s election, all Loans and other monetary Obligations shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to three (3) percentage points in excess of the rate otherwise applicable thereto (the “Default Rate”), and all such interest shall be payable on demand. Changes in the interest rate shall be effective as of the date of any change in the Base Rate or Term SOFR, as applicable. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, all Loans shall be Term SOFR Loans or under the circumstances set forth in Section 2.1(d) or (e), Base Rate Loans; provided, that if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the interest rate applicable to all Loans and other Obligations may be converted to the Base Rate at the election of the Lender.

(b) Any Term SOFR Loans shall bear interest at Term SOFR for a period commencing on the first day of a calendar month and ending on the last day of such calendar month (the “Interest Period”) unless and until converted to Loans bearing interest at the Base Rate in accordance with Section 2.1(a), above or Section 2.1(d) or Section 2.1(e) below.

(c) Term SOFR may be adjusted by Lender on a prospective basis to take into account any increased costs due to changes in applicable law occurring subsequent to the commencement of the then applicable Interest Period (other than changes in tax laws, which shall be governed by Section 1.9 and Section 9.1) and changes in the reserve requirements imposed by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (or any successor), which additional or increased costs would increase the cost of maintaining loans under this Agreement bearing interest based upon Term SOFR. In any such event, Lender shall give Borrowers notice of such a determination and adjustment and, upon its receipt of the notice from Lender, Borrowers may, by notice to Lender (A) require Lender to furnish to Borrowers a statement setting forth the basis for adjusting Term SOFR and the method for determining the amount of such adjustment or (B) repay the portion of the Loans bearing interest based upon Term SOFR with respect to which such adjustment is made. Upon any such repayment, Borrowers shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so repaid.

-6-

(d) If Lender determines that any law has made it unlawful, or that any governmental authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for Lender or its applicable lending office to maintain any Loan with interest determined by reference to Term SOFR, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon Term SOFR, then, upon notice thereof by Lender to Borrowers, any obligation of Lender to maintain any Term SOFR Loan shall be suspended until Lender notifies Borrowers that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, Borrowers shall, upon demand from Lender, convert the Term SOFR Loans to loans bearing interest at the Base Rate, either on the last day of the applicable Interest Period, if Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Term SOFR Loans to such day, or immediately, if Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Term SOFR Loans until Lender determines that it is no longer illegal for Lender to determine or charge interest rates based upon Term SOFR. Upon any such conversion, Borrowers shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so converted.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Loan Documents, but without limiting Section 2.1(d) above, if Lender determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto absent manifest error), that:

(i) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining Term SOFR for any Interest Period because Term SOFR is not available or published on a current basis and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary; or

(ii) the SOFR Administrator or a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over Lender has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which Term SOFR shall no longer be made available, or used for determining the interest rate of loans; provided, that, at the time of such statement, there is no successor administrator that is satisfactory to Lender, that will continue to provide Term SOFR after such specific date (such specific date, the “Scheduled Unavailability Date”); or

(iii) syndicated loans currently being executed, or that include language similar to that contained in this Section 2.1(e), are being executed or amended (as applicable) to incorporate or adopt a new benchmark interest rate to replace Term SOFR;

then, reasonably promptly after such determination by Lender, Lender may amend this Agreement to replace Term SOFR with (A) the Base Rate, or (B) if administratively feasible and acceptable to Lender in its discretion (and if no Event of Default shall be continuing, after consultation with Borrower) (1) one or more other SOFR-Based Rates or (2) another alternate benchmark rate giving due consideration to any evolving or then existing convention for similar U.S. dollar denominated syndicated credit facilities for such alternative benchmarks and, in each case, including any mathematical or other adjustments to such benchmark giving due consideration to any evolving or then existing convention for similar U.S. dollar denominated syndicated credit facilities for such benchmarks (such as the margin applicable thereto) which adjustment or method for calculating such adjustment shall be published on an information service as selected by Lender (and if no Event of Default shall be continuing, after consultation with Borrower) from time to time in its reasonable discretion and may be periodically updated (the “Adjustment”; and any such proposed rate, a “Term SOFR Successor Rate”). Any such amendment shall become effective at 5:00 p.m. on the fifth Business Day after Lender shall have posted such proposed amendment to Borrowers. Such Term SOFR Successor Rate shall be applied in a manner consistent with market practice; provided, that to the extent such market practice is not administratively feasible for Lender, such Term SOFR Successor Rate shall be applied in a manner as otherwise reasonably determined by Lender. If no Term SOFR Successor Rate has been determined and the circumstances under clause (e)(i) above exist or the Scheduled Unavailability Date has occurred (as applicable), the Lender will promptly so notify Borrowers. Thereafter, the obligation of the Lender to make or maintain Term SOFR Loans shall be suspended (to the extent of the affected Term SOFR Loans or Interest Period). Upon receipt of such notice, Borrowers may revoke any pending request for a borrowing of Term SOFR Loans (to the extent of the affected Term SOFR Loans or Interest Period) or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for

-7-

Loans bearing interest at the Base Rate in the amount specified therein. In connection with the implementation of a Term SOFR Successor Rate, Lender will have the right to make Term SOFR Successor Rate Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Term SOFR Successor Rate Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement.

Anything to the contrary contained herein notwithstanding, Lender is not required actually to match fund any Obligation as to which interest accrues based on Term SOFR.

2.2 Fees. Borrowers shall jointly and severally pay Lender the fees set forth in the Fee Letter on the dates set forth therein, which fees are in addition to all fees and other sums payable by Borrowers or any other Person to Lender under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document, and, in each case are not refundable once paid.

2.3 Computation of Interest and Fees. All interest and fees shall be calculated daily on the outstanding monetary Obligations based on the actual number of days elapsed in a year of 360 days.

2.4 Loan Account; Monthly Accountings. Lender shall maintain a loan account for Borrowers reflecting all outstanding Loans and the Letter of Credit Balance, along with interest accrued thereon and such other items reflected therein (the “Loan Account”), and shall provide Borrowing Agent with a monthly accounting reflecting the activity in the Loan Account, viewable by Borrowing Agent on ABLServe. Absent manifest error, each accounting shall be deemed correct, accurate and binding on Borrowers and an account stated (except for reverses and reapplications of payments made and corrections of errors discovered by Lender), unless Borrowing Agent notifies Lender in writing to the contrary within thirty (30) days after such account is rendered, describing the nature of any alleged errors or omissions. However, Lender’s failure to maintain the Loan Account or to provide any such accounting shall not affect the legality or binding nature of any of the Obligations. Interest, fees and other monetary Obligations due and owing under this Agreement (including fees and other amounts paid by Lender to issuers of Letters of Credit) may, in Lender’s discretion, be charged to the Loan Account, and will thereafter be deemed to be Revolving Loans and will bear interest at the same rate as other Revolving Loans.

2.5 Further Obligations; Maximum Lawful Rate. With respect to all monetary Obligations for which the interest rate is not otherwise specified herein (whether such Obligations arise hereunder or under any other Loan Document, or otherwise), such Obligations shall bear interest at the rate(s) in effect from time to time with respect to the applicable Loan to which such Obligations relate and shall be payable upon demand by Lender. In no event shall the interest charged with respect to any Loan or any other Obligation exceed the maximum amount permitted under applicable law. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or elsewhere, if at any time the rate of interest payable or other amounts hereunder or under any other Loan Document (the “Stated Rate”) would exceed the highest rate of interest or other amount permitted under any applicable law to be charged (the “Maximum Lawful Rate”), then for so long as the Maximum Lawful Rate would be so exceeded, the rate of interest and other amounts payable shall be equal to the Maximum Lawful Rate; provided, that if at any time thereafter the Stated Rate is less than the Maximum Lawful Rate, Borrowers shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, continue to pay interest and such other amounts at the Maximum Lawful Rate until such time as the total interest and other such amounts received is equal to the total interest and other such amounts which would have been received had the Stated Rate been (but for the operation of this provision) the interest rate payable or such other amounts payable. Thereafter, the interest rate and such other amounts payable shall be the Stated Rate unless and until the Stated Rate again would exceed the Maximum Lawful Rate, in which event this provision shall again apply. In no event shall the total interest or other such amounts received by Lender exceed the amount which it could lawfully have received had the interest and other such amounts been calculated for the full term hereof at the Maximum Lawful Rate. If, notwithstanding the prior sentence, Lender has received interest or other such amounts hereunder in excess of the Maximum Lawful Rate, such excess amount shall

Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, this Section 6.2 shall remain operative even after the Termination Date and shall survive the payment in full of all of the Obligations.

In the event that there is a change in such exchange rate between the Business Day before the day on which the judgment is given and the date of receipt by the Lender of the amount due, each Loan Party shall to the extent permitted by law, on the date of receipt by Lender, pay such additional amounts, if any, or be entitled to receive reimbursement of such amount, if any as may be necessary to ensure that the amount received by Lender on such date is the amount in the Judgment Currency which (when converted at such exchange rate on the date of receipt by Lender in accordance with normal banking procedures in the relevant jurisdiction) is the amount then due under this Agreement or such other Loan Document in the Currency Due. If the amount of the Currency Due (including any Currency Due for purposes of Section 1.7(d)) which the Lender is so able to purchase is less than the amount of the Currency Due (including any Currency Due for purposes of Section 1.7(d)) originally due to it, each Loan Party shall to the extent permitted by law jointly and severally indemnify and save Lender harmless from and against loss or damage arising as a result of such deficiency.

Lender may file proofs of loss and claim with respect to any of the Collateral with the appropriate insurer, and may endorse in its own and each Loan Party’s name any checks or drafts constituting Proceeds of insurance. Any Proceeds of insurance received by Lender may be applied by Lender against payment of all or any portion of the Obligations as Lender may elect in its reasonable discretion.

(d) Possession and Assembly of Collateral. Lender may take possession of the Collateral and/or without removal render each Loan Party’s Equipment unusable. Upon Lender’s request and subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, each Loan Party shall assemble the Collateral and make it available to Lender at a place or places to be designated by Lender.

(e) Set-off. Lender may and without any notice to, consent of or any other action by any Loan Party (such notice, consent or other action being expressly waived), set-off or apply (i) any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held by or for the account of Lender or any Affiliate of Lender, and/or (ii) any Indebtedness at any time owing by Lender or any Affiliate of Lender or any Participant in the Loans to or for the credit or the account of any Loan Party, to the repayment of the Obligations irrespective of whether any demand for payment of the Obligations has been made.

-35-

(f) Disposition of Collateral.

(i) Sale, Lease, etc. of Collateral. Lender may, without demand, advertising or notice, all of which each Loan Party hereby waives (except as the same may be required by the UCC or other applicable law and is not waivable under the UCC or such other applicable law), at any time or times in one or more public or private sales or other dispositions, for cash, on credit or otherwise, at such prices and upon such terms as determined by Lender (provided such price and terms are commercially reasonable within the meaning of the UCC to the extent such sale or other disposition is subject to the UCC requirements that such sale or other disposition must be commercially reasonable) (A) sell, lease, license or otherwise dispose of any and all Collateral, and/or (B) deliver and grant options to a third party to purchase, lease, license or otherwise dispose of any and all Collateral. Lender may sell, lease, license or otherwise dispose of any Collateral in its then-present condition or following any preparation or processing deemed necessary by Lender in its reasonable discretion. Lender may be the purchaser at any such public or private sale or other disposition of Collateral, and in such case Lender may make payment of all or any portion of the purchase price therefor by the application of all or any portion of the Obligations due to Lender to the purchase price payable in connection with such sale or disposition. Lender may, if it deems it reasonable, postpone or adjourn any sale or other disposition of any Collateral from time to time by an announcement at the time and place of the sale or disposition to be so postponed or adjourned without being required to give a new notice of sale or disposition; provided, however, that Lender shall provide the applicable Loan Party with written notice of the time and place of such postponed or adjourned sale or disposition. Each Loan Party hereby acknowledges and agrees that Lender’s compliance with any requirements of applicable law in connection with a sale, lease, license or other disposition of Collateral will not be considered to adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale, lease, license or other disposition of such Collateral.

(ii) Deficiency. Each Loan Party shall remain liable for all amounts of the Obligations remaining unpaid as a result of any deficiency of the Proceeds of the sale, lease, license or other disposition of Collateral after such Proceeds are applied to the Obligations as provided in this Agreement.

(iii) Warranties; Sales on Credit. Lender may sell, lease, license or otherwise dispose of the Collateral without giving any warranties and may specifically disclaim any and all warranties, including but not limited to warranties of title, possession, merchantability and fitness. Each Loan Party hereby acknowledges and agrees that Lender’s disclaimer of any and all warranties in connection with a sale, lease, license or other disposition of Collateral will not be considered to adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of any such disposition of the Collateral. If Lender sells, leases, licenses or otherwise disposes of any of the Collateral on credit, Borrowers will be credited only with payments actually made in cash by the recipient of such Collateral and received by Lender and applied to the Obligations. If any Person fails to pay for Collateral acquired pursuant to this Section 7.3(f) on credit, Lender may re-offer the Collateral for sale, lease, license or other disposition.

(g) Investment Property; Voting and Other Rights; Irrevocable Proxy.

(i) All rights of each Loan Party to exercise any of the voting and other consensual rights which it would otherwise be entitled to exercise in accordance with the terms hereof with respect to any Investment Property, and to receive any dividends, payments, and other distributions which it would otherwise be authorized to receive and retain in accordance with the terms hereof with respect to any Investment Property, shall immediately, at the election of Lender (without requiring any notice) cease, and all such rights shall thereupon become vested solely in Lender, and Lender (personally or through an agent) shall thereupon be solely authorized and empowered, without notice, to (A) transfer and register in its name, or in the name of its nominee, the whole or any part of the Investment Property, it being acknowledged by each Loan Party that any such transfer and registration may be effected by Lender through its irrevocable appointment as attorney-in-fact pursuant to Section 7.3(g)(ii) and Section 4.4 of this Agreement, (B) exchange certificates and/or instruments representing or evidencing Investment Property for certificates and/or instruments of smaller or larger denominations, (C) exercise the voting and all other rights as a holder with respect to all or any portion of the Investment Property (including, without limitation, all economic rights, all control rights, authority and powers, and all status rights of each Loan Party as a member or as a shareholder (as applicable) of the Issuer), (D) collect and receive all dividends and other

-36-

payments and distributions made thereon, (E) notify the parties obligated on any Investment Property to make payment to Lender of any amounts due or to become due thereunder, (F) endorse instruments in the name of each Loan Party to allow collection of any Investment Property, (G) enforce collection of any of the Investment Property by suit or otherwise, and surrender, release, or exchange all or any part thereof, or compromise or renew for any period (whether or not longer than the original period) any liabilities of any nature of any Person with respect thereto, (H) consummate any sales of Investment Property or exercise any other rights as set forth in Section 7.3(f) hereof, (I) otherwise act with respect to the Investment Property as though Lender was the outright owner thereof, and (J) exercise any other rights or remedies Lender may have under the UCC, other applicable law, or otherwise.

(ii) EACH LOAN PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY CONSTITUTES AND APPOINTS LENDER AS ITS PROXY AND ATTORNEY-IN-FACT FOR SUCH LOAN PARTY WITH RESPECT TO ALL OF EACH SUCH LOAN PARTY’S INVESTMENT PROPERTY WITH THE RIGHT, DURING THE CONTINUANCE OF AN EVENT OF DEFAULT, WITHOUT NOTICE, TO TAKE ANY OF THE FOLLOWING ACTIONS: (A) TRANSFER AND REGISTER IN LENDER’S NAME, OR IN THE NAME OF ITS NOMINEE, THE WHOLE OR ANY PART OF THE INVESTMENT PROPERTY, (B) VOTE THE PLEDGED EQUITY, WITH FULL POWER OF SUBSTITUTION TO DO SO, (C) RECEIVE AND COLLECT ANY DIVIDEND OR ANY OTHER PAYMENT OR DISTRIBUTION IN RESPECT OF, OR IN EXCHANGE FOR, THE INVESTMENT PROPERTY OR ANY PORTION THEREOF, TO GIVE FULL DISCHARGE FOR THE SAME AND TO INDORSE ANY INSTRUMENT MADE PAYABLE TO ANY LOAN PARTY FOR THE SAME, (D) EXERCISE ALL OTHER RIGHTS, POWERS, PRIVILEGES, AND REMEDIES (INCLUDING ALL ECONOMIC RIGHTS, ALL CONTROL RIGHTS, AUTHORITY AND POWERS, AND ALL STATUS RIGHTS OF EACH LOAN PARTY AS A MEMBER OR AS A SHAREHOLDER (AS APPLICABLE) OF THE ISSUER) TO WHICH A HOLDER OF THE PLEDGED COLLATERAL WOULD BE ENTITLED (INCLUDING, WITH RESPECT TO THE PLEDGED EQUITY, GIVING OR WITHHOLDING WRITTEN CONSENTS OF MEMBERS OR SHAREHOLDERS, CALLING SPECIAL MEETINGS OF MEMBERS OR SHAREHOLDERS, AND VOTING AT SUCH MEETINGS), AND (E) TAKE ANY ACTION AND EXECUTE ANY INSTRUMENT WHICH LENDER MAY DEEM NECESSARY OR ADVISABLE TO ACCOMPLISH THE PURPOSES OF THIS AGREEMENT. THE APPOINTMENT OF LENDER AS PROXY AND ATTORNEY-IN-FACT IS COUPLED WITH AN INTEREST AND SHALL BE VALID AND IRREVOCABLE UNTIL (X) ALL OF THE OBLIGATIONS HAVE BEEN INDEFEASIBLY PAID IN FULL IN CASH IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE PROVISIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, (Y) LENDER HAS NO FURTHER OBLIGATIONS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT, AND (Z) THE COMMITMENTS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT HAVE EXPIRED OR HAVE BEEN TERMINATED (IT BEING UNDERSTOOD AND AGREED THAT SUCH OBLIGATIONS WILL BE AUTOMATICALLY REINSTATED IF AT ANY TIME PAYMENT, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, OF ANY OF THE OBLIGATIONS IS RESCINDED OR MUST OTHERWISE BE RESTORED OR RETURNED BY LENDER FOR ANY REASON WHATSOEVER, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, AS A PREFERENCE, FRAUDULENT CONVEYANCE, OR OTHERWISE UNDER ANY BANKRUPTCY, INSOLVENCY, OR SIMILAR LAW, ALL AS THOUGH SUCH PAYMENT HAD NOT BEEN MADE; IT BEING FURTHER UNDERSTOOD THAT IN THE EVENT PAYMENT OF ALL OR ANY PART OF THE OBLIGATIONS IS RESCINDED OR MUST BE RESTORED OR RETURNED, ALL REASONABLE OUT-OF-POCKET COSTS AND EXPENSES (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ALL REASONABLE ATTORNEYS’ FEES AND DISBURSEMENTS) INCURRED BY LENDER IN DEFENDING AND ENFORCING SUCH REINSTATEMENT SHALL HEREBY BE DEEMED TO BE INCLUDED AS A PART OF THE OBLIGATIONS). SUCH APPOINTMENT OF LENDER AS PROXY AND AS ATTORNEY-IN-FACT SHALL BE VALID AND IRREVOCABLE AS PROVIDED HEREIN NOTWITHSTANDING ANY LIMITATIONS TO THE CONTRARY SET FORTH IN ANY ORGANIC DOCUMENTS OF ANY LOAN PARTY, ANY ISSUER, OR OTHERWISE.

-37-

(iii) In order to further effect the foregoing transfer of rights in favor of Lender, during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Loan Party hereby authorizes and instructs each Issuer of Investment Property pledged by such Loan Party to comply with any instruction received by such Issuer from Lender without any other or further instruction from such Loan Party, and each Loan Party acknowledges and agrees that each Issuer shall be fully protected in so complying, and to pay any dividends, distributions, or other payments with respect to any of the Investment Property directly to Lender.

(iv) Upon exercise of the proxy set forth herein, all prior proxies given by any Loan Party with respect to any of the Pledged Equity or other Investment Property, as applicable (other than to Lender), are hereby revoked, and no subsequent proxies (other than to Lender) will be given with respect to any of the Pledged Equity or any of the other Investment Property, as applicable, unless Lender otherwise subsequently agrees in writing. Lender, as proxy, will be empowered and may exercise the irrevocable proxy to vote the Pledged Equity and/or the other Investment Property at any and all times during the existence of an Event of Default, including, without limitation, at any meeting of shareholders or members, as the case may be, however called, and at any adjournment thereof, or in any action by written consent, and may waive any notice otherwise required in connection therewith. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Lender shall have no agency, fiduciary, or other implied duties to any Loan Party, any Issuer, any Loan Party, or any other Person when acting in its capacity as such proxy or attorney-in-fact. Each Loan Party hereby waives and releases any claims that it may otherwise have against Lender with respect to any breach, or alleged breach, of any such agency, fiduciary, or other duty.

(v) Any transfer to Lender or its nominee, or registration in the name of Lender or its nominee, of the whole or any part of the Investment Property shall be made solely for purposes of effectuating voting or other consensual rights with respect to the Investment Property in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and is not intended to effectuate any transfer of ownership of any of the Investment Property. Notwithstanding the delivery by Lender of any instruction to any Issuer or any exercise by Lender of an irrevocable proxy or otherwise, Lender shall not be deemed the owner of, or assume any obligations or any liabilities whatsoever of the owner or holder of, any Investment Property unless and until Lender expressly accepts such obligations in a duly authorized and executed writing and agrees in writing to become bound by the applicable Organic Documents or otherwise becomes the owner thereof under applicable law (including through a sale as described in Section 7.3(f) hereof). The execution and delivery of this Agreement shall not subject Lender to, or transfer or pass to Lender, or in any way affect or modify, the liability of any Loan Party under the Organic Documents of any Issuer or any related agreements, documents, or instruments or otherwise. In no event shall the execution and delivery of this Agreement by Lender, or the exercise by Lender of any rights hereunder or assigned hereby, constitute an assumption of any liability or obligation whatsoever of any Loan Party to, under, or in connection with any of the Organic Documents of any Issuer or any related agreements, documents, or instruments or otherwise.

(h) Election of Remedies. Lender shall have the right in Lender’s sole discretion to determine which rights, security, Liens and/or remedies Lender may at any time pursue, foreclose upon, relinquish, subordinate, modify or take any other action with respect to, without in any way impairing, modifying or affecting any of Lender’s other rights, security, Liens or remedies with respect to such property, or any of Lender’s rights or remedies under this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

(i) Lender’s Obligations. Each Loan Party agrees that Lender shall not have any obligation to preserve rights to any Collateral against prior parties or to marshal any Collateral of any kind for the benefit of any other creditor of any Loan Party or any other Person. Lender shall not be responsible to any Loan Party or any other Person for loss or damage resulting from Lender’s failure to enforce its Liens or collect any Collateral or Proceeds or any monies due or to become due under the Obligations or any other liability or obligation of any Loan Party to Lender.

-38-

(j) Waiver of Rights by Loan Parties.

(i) Except as otherwise expressly provided for in this Agreement or by non-waivable applicable law, each Loan Party waives: (i) presentment, demand and protest and notice of presentment, dishonor, notice of intent to accelerate, notice of acceleration, protest, default, nonpayment, maturity, release, compromise, settlement, extension or renewal of any or all commercial paper, accounts, contract rights, documents, instruments, chattel paper and guaranties at any time held by Lender on which any Loan Party may in any way be liable, and hereby ratifies and confirms whatever Lender may do in this regard, (ii) all rights to notice and a hearing prior to Lender’s taking possession or control of, or to Lender’s replevy, attachment or levy upon, the Collateral or any bond or security which might be required by any court prior to allowing Lender to exercise any of its remedies and (iii) the benefit of all valuation, appraisal, marshalling and exemption laws.

(ii) Each of the Loan Parties hereby acknowledges and affirms that it understands that to the extent the Obligations are secured by Real Estate located in California, the Loan Parties shall be liable for the full amount of the liability hereunder notwithstanding the foreclosure on such Real Estate by trustee sale or any other reason impairing such Loan Party’s right to proceed against any other Loan Party. In accordance with Section 2856 of the California Civil Code or any similar laws of any other applicable jurisdiction, each of the Loan Parties hereby waives until such time as the Obligations have been paid in full:

(iii) (A) all rights of subrogation, reimbursement, indemnification, and contribution and any other rights and defenses that are or may become available to the Borrowers by reason of Sections 2787 to 2855, inclusive, 2899, and 3433 of the California Civil Code or any similar laws of any other applicable jurisdiction;

(B) all rights and defenses that the Loan Parties may have because the Obligations are secured by Real Estate located in California, meaning, among other things, that: (I) Lender may collect from the Loan Parties without first foreclosing on any real or personal property collateral pledged by any Loan Party, and (II) if Lender forecloses on any Real Estate Collateral pledged by any Loan Party, (1) the amount of the Obligations may be reduced only by the price for which that collateral is sold at the foreclosure sale, even if the collateral is worth more than the sale price, and (2) Lender may collect from the Loan Parties even if, by foreclosing on the Real Estate Collateral, Lender have destroyed or impaired any right the Loan Parties may have to collect from any other Loan Party, it being understood that this is an unconditional and irrevocable waiver of any rights and defenses the Loan Parties may have because the Obligations are secured by Real Estate (including, without limitation, any rights or defenses based upon Sections 580a, 580d, or 726 of the California Code of Civil Procedure or any similar laws of any other applicable jurisdiction); and

(C) all rights and defenses arising out of an election of remedies by Lender even though that election of remedies, such as a nonjudicial foreclosure with respect to security for the Obligations, has destroyed the Loan Parties’ rights of subrogation and reimbursement against any other Loan Party by the operation of Section 580d of the California Code of Civil Procedure or any similar laws of any other applicable jurisdiction or otherwise.

8. LOAN GUARANTY.

8.1 Guaranty. Each Guarantor hereby agrees that it is jointly and severally liable for, and absolutely and unconditionally guarantees to Lender, the prompt payment when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, and at all times thereafter, all of the Obligations, including all costs and expenses due under the Loan Documents pursuant to Section 10.7 paid or incurred by Lender in endeavoring to collect all or any part of the Obligations from, or in prosecuting any action against, any Borrower, any Guarantor of all or any part of the Obligations (and such costs and expenses paid or incurred shall be deemed to be included in the Obligations). Each Guarantor further agrees that the Obligations may

-39-

be extended or renewed in whole or in part without notice to or further assent from it, and that it remains bound upon its guarantee notwithstanding any such extension or renewal. All terms of this Loan Guaranty apply to and may be enforced by or on behalf of any branch or Affiliate of Lender that extended any portion of the Obligations.

8.2 Guaranty of Payment. This Loan Guaranty is a guaranty of payment and not of collection. Each Guarantor waives any right to require Lender to sue or otherwise take action against any Borrower, any other Guarantor, or any other Person obligated for all or any part of the Obligations, or otherwise to enforce its payment against any Collateral securing all or any part of the Obligations.

8.3 No Discharge or Diminishment of Loan Guaranty.

(a) Except as otherwise expressly provided for herein, the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder are unconditional and absolute and not subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason (other than the indefeasible payment in full in cash of all of the Obligations (other than any contingent indemnification obligations for which no claim has been asserted or any Obligations which have been cash collateralized in accordance with the terms of this Agreement)), including: (i) any claim of waiver, release, extension, renewal, settlement, surrender, alteration, or compromise of any of the Obligations, by operation of law or otherwise; (ii) any change in the corporate existence, structure or ownership of any Borrower or any other Guarantor; (iii) any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or other similar proceeding affecting any Borrower or any other Guarantor, or their assets or any resulting release or discharge of any obligation of any Borrower or any other Guarantor; or (iv) the existence of any claim, setoff or other rights which any Guarantor may have at any time against any Borrower, any other Guarantor, Lender, or any other Person, whether in connection herewith or in any unrelated transactions.

(b) The obligations of each Guarantor hereunder are not subject to any defense or setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, or termination whatsoever by reason of the invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability of any of the Obligations or otherwise, or any provision of applicable law or regulation purporting to prohibit payment by any Borrower or any other Guarantor, of the Obligations or any part thereof.

(c) Further, the obligations of any Guarantor hereunder are not discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by: (i) the failure of Lender to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any remedy with respect to all or any part of the Obligations; (ii) any waiver or modification of or supplement to any provision of any agreement relating to the Obligations; (iii) any release, non-perfection, or invalidity of any indirect or direct security for all or any part of the Obligations or all or any part of any obligations of any Guarantor; (iv) any action or failure to act by Lender with respect to any Collateral; or (v) any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the payment or performance of any of the Obligations, or any other circumstance, act, omission or delay that might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of such Guarantor or that would otherwise operate as a discharge of any Guarantor as a matter of law or equity (other than the indefeasible payment in full in cash of all of the Obligations (other than any contingent indemnification obligations for which no claim has been asserted or any Obligations which have been cash collateralized in accordance with the terms of this Agreement)).

8.4 Defenses Waived. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Guarantor hereby waives any defense based on or arising out of any defense of any Guarantor or the unenforceability of all or any part of the Obligations from any cause, or the cessation from any cause of the liability of any Guarantor, other than the indefeasible payment in full in cash of all of the Obligations (other than any contingent indemnification obligations for which no claim has been asserted or any Obligations which have been cash collateralized in accordance with the terms of this Agreement). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Guarantor irrevocably waives acceptance hereof, presentment, demand, protest and,

-40-

to the fullest extent permitted by law, any notice not provided for herein, as well as any requirement that at any time any action be taken by any Person against any Borrower, or any other Person. Each Guarantor confirms that it is not a surety under any state law and shall not raise any such law as a defense to its obligations hereunder. Lender may, at its election, foreclose on any Collateral held by it by one or more judicial or nonjudicial sales, accept an assignment of any such Collateral in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise act or fail to act with respect to any Collateral, compromise or adjust any part of the Obligations, make any other accommodation with any Borrower or any other Guarantor or exercise any other right or remedy available to it against any Borrower or any other Guarantor, without affecting or impairing in any way the liability of any Guarantor under this Loan Guaranty except to the extent the Obligations have been fully and indefeasibly paid in cash (other than any contingent indemnification obligations for which no claim has been asserted or any Obligations which have been cash collateralized in accordance with the terms of this Agreement). To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Guarantor waives any defense arising out of any such election even though that election may operate, pursuant to applicable law, to impair or extinguish any right of reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of any Guarantor against any Borrower or any other Guarantor or any security.

8.5 Rights of Subrogation. No Guarantor will assert any right, claim or cause of action, including, without limitation, a claim of subrogation, contribution or indemnification that it has against any Borrower or any other Guarantor, or any Collateral, until the Termination Date.

8.6 Reinstatement; Stay of Acceleration. If at any time any payment of any portion of the Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, or reorganization of any Borrower or any other Person, or otherwise, each Guarantor’s obligations under this Loan Guaranty with respect to that payment shall be reinstated at such time as though the payment had not been made and whether or not Lender is in possession of this Loan Guaranty. If acceleration of the time for payment of any of the Obligations is stayed upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any Borrower, all such amounts otherwise subject to acceleration under the terms of any agreement relating to the Obligations shall nonetheless be payable by the Loan Parties forthwith on demand by Lender. This Section 8.6 shall remain operative even after the Termination Date and shall survive the payment in full of all of the Obligations.

8.7 Information. Each Guarantor assumes all responsibility for being and keeping itself informed of Borrowers’ financial condition and assets, and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Obligations and the nature, scope and extent of the risks that each Guarantor assumes and incurs under this Loan Guaranty, and agrees that Lender shall not have any duty to advise any Guarantor of information known to it regarding those circumstances or risks.

8.8 Termination. To the maximum extent permitted by law, each Guarantor hereby waives any right to revoke this Loan Guaranty as to future Obligations. If such a revocation is effective notwithstanding the foregoing waiver, each Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that (a) no such revocation shall be effective until written notice thereof has been received by Lender, (b) no such revocation shall apply to any Obligations in existence on the date of receipt by Lender of such written notice (including any subsequent continuation, extension, or renewal thereof, or change in the interest rate, payment terms, or other terms and conditions thereof), (c) no such revocation shall apply to any Obligations made or created after such date to the extent made or created pursuant to a legally binding commitment of Lender, (d) no payment by any Borrower, any other Guarantor, or from any other source, prior to the date of Lender’s receipt of written notice of such revocation shall reduce the maximum obligation of any Guarantor hereunder, and (e) any payment, by any Borrower or from any source other than a Guarantor which has made such a revocation, made subsequent to the date of such revocation, shall first be applied to that portion of the Obligations as to which the revocation is effective and which are not, therefore, guarantied hereunder, and to the extent so applied shall not reduce the maximum obligation of any Guarantor hereunder.

-41-

8.9 Maximum Liability. The provisions of this Loan Guaranty are severable, and in any action or proceeding involving any federal or state corporate law or other law governing business entities, or any state, federal or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other law affecting the rights of creditors generally, if the obligations of any Guarantor under this Loan Guaranty would otherwise be held or determined to be avoidable, invalid or unenforceable on account of the amount of such Guarantor’s liability under this Loan Guaranty, then, notwithstanding any other provision of this Loan Guaranty to the contrary, the amount of such liability shall, without any further action by the Loan Parties or Lender, be automatically limited and reduced to the highest amount that is valid and enforceable as determined in such action or proceeding (such highest amount determined hereunder being the relevant Guarantor’s “Maximum Liability”). This Section with respect to the Maximum Liability of each Guarantor is intended solely to preserve the rights of Lender to the maximum extent not subject to avoidance under applicable law, and no Guarantor nor any other Person shall have any right or claim under this Section with respect to such Maximum Liability, except to the extent necessary so that the obligations of any Guarantor hereunder shall not be rendered voidable under applicable law. Each Guarantor agrees that the Obligations may at any time and from time to time exceed the Maximum Liability of each Guarantor without impairing this Loan Guaranty or affecting the rights and remedies of Lender hereunder, provided, that, nothing in this sentence shall be construed to increase any Guarantor’s obligations hereunder beyond its Maximum Liability.

8.10 Contribution. In the event any Guarantor shall make any payment or payments under this Loan Guaranty or shall suffer any loss as a result of any realization upon any collateral granted by it to secure its obligations under this Loan Guaranty (such Guarantor a “Paying Guarantor”), each other Guarantor (each a “Non-Paying Guarantor”) shall contribute to such Paying Guarantor an amount equal to such Non-Paying Guarantor’s “Applicable Percentage” of such payment or payments made, or losses suffered, by such Paying Guarantor. For purposes of this Section 8.10, each Non-Paying Guarantor’s “Applicable Percentage” with respect to any such payment or loss by a Paying Guarantor shall be determined as of the date on which such payment or loss was made by reference to the ratio of (a) such Non-Paying Guarantor’s Maximum Liability as of such date (without giving effect to any right to receive, or obligation to make, any contribution hereunder) or, if such Non-Paying Guarantor’s Maximum Liability has not been determined, the aggregate amount of all monies received by such Non-Paying Guarantor from Borrowers after the date hereof (whether by loan, capital infusion or by other means) to (b) the aggregate Maximum Liability of all Loan Parties hereunder (including such Paying Guarantor) as of such date (without giving effect to any right to receive, or obligation to make, any contribution hereunder), or to the extent that a Maximum Liability has not been determined for any Guarantor, the aggregate amount of all monies received by such Loan Parties from Borrowers after the date hereof (whether by loan, capital infusion or by other means). Nothing in this provision shall affect any Guarantor’s several liability for the entire amount of the Obligations (up to such Guarantor’s Maximum Liability). Each of the Loan Parties covenants and agrees that its right to receive any contribution under this Loan Guaranty from a Non-Paying Guarantor shall be subordinate and junior in right of payment to the payment in full in cash of all of the Obligations. This provision is for the benefit of Lender and the Loan Parties and may be enforced by any one, or more, or all of them in accordance with the terms hereof.

8.11 Liability Cumulative. The liability of each Guarantor under this Section 8 is in addition to and shall be cumulative with all liabilities of each Guarantor to Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which such Guarantor is a party or in respect of any obligations or liabilities of the other Loan Parties, without any limitation as to amount, unless the instrument or agreement evidencing or creating such other liability specifically provides to the contrary.

-42-

9. PAYMENTS FREE OF TAXES; OBLIGATION TO WITHHOLD; PAYMENTS ON ACCOUNT OF TAXES.

9.1 Taxes.

(a) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Loan Parties hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall to the extent permitted by applicable laws be made free and clear of and without reduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law. If, however, applicable laws require the Loan Parties to withhold or deduct any Tax, such Tax shall be withheld or deducted in accordance with such laws as the case may be, upon the basis of the information and documentation to be delivered pursuant to clause (e) below.

(b) If any Loan Party shall be required by applicable law to withhold or deduct any Taxes from any payment, then (i) such Loan Party shall withhold or make such deductions as are required based upon the information and documentation it has received pursuant to clause (e) below, (ii) such Loan Party shall timely pay the full amount withheld or deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with the applicable law, and (iii) to the extent that the withholding or deduction is made on account of Indemnified Taxes, the sum payable by the Loan Parties shall be increased as necessary so that after any required withholding or the making of all required deductions in respect of Indemnified Taxes (including such deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such withholding or deduction been made. Upon request by Lender or other Recipient, Borrowers shall deliver to Lender or such other Recipient, as the case may be, the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment of Indemnified Taxes, a copy of any return required by applicable law to report such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to Lender or such other Recipient, as the case may be.

(c) Without limiting the provisions of subsections (a) and (b) above, the Loan Parties shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(d) Without limiting the provisions of subsections (a) through (c) above, each Loan Party shall, and does hereby, on a joint and several basis indemnify Lender and each other Recipient (and their respective directors, officers, employees, affiliates and agents) and shall make payment in respect thereof within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes and Other Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes and Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) paid or incurred by Lender or any other Recipient on account of, or in connection with any Loan Document or a breach by a Loan Party thereof, and any penalties, interest and reasonable related expenses and losses arising therefrom or with respect thereto (including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel or other tax advisor for Lender or any other Recipient), whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of any such payment or liability delivered to Borrowers shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, this Section 9.1 shall remain operative even after the Termination Date and shall survive the payment in full of all of the Loans.

(e) If Lender or any Participant is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document, Lender shall deliver to Borrowers and each such Participant shall deliver to Lender granting the participation, at the time or times prescribed by applicable laws or reasonably requested by the Borrowers or Lender granting the participation, such properly completed and executed documentation as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, Lender shall deliver to Borrowers and each Participant shall deliver to Lender granting the participation, at the time or times prescribed by applicable laws or reasonably requested by the Borrowers or the Lender granting the participation, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable laws or by the taxing authorities of any jurisdiction or such other reasonably requested information as will enable Borrowers or Lender granting the participation, as the case may be, to determine (i) whether or not payments made hereunder or under any other Loan Document are subject to Taxes or information reporting

requirements, (ii) if applicable, the required rate of withholding or deduction, and (iii) such Lender’s or Participant’s entitlement to any available exemption from, or reduction of, applicable Taxes in respect of all payments to be made to such Recipient by the Loan Parties pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise to establish such Recipient’s status for withholding tax purposes in the applicable jurisdiction. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 9.1(e)(i), (ii) or (iii)) shall not be required if in the Lender’s or Participant’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender or Participant to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender or Participant.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if a Borrower is resident for tax purposes in the United States:

(i) Lender (or Participant) that is a “United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code shall deliver to Borrowers (or Lender granting a participation as applicable) on or about the date on which Lender becomes a lender (or such Participant is granted a participation) under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrowers or Lender granting such participation), executed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 (or any successor form), certifying that Lender (or such Participant) is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;

(ii) Lender (or Participant) that is not a “United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code (a “Non-U.S. Recipient”) shall deliver to Borrowers (and Lender granting a participation in case the Non-U.S. Recipient is a Participant) on or prior to the date on which such Non-U.S. Recipient becomes a lender (or such Participant is granted a participation) under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Borrowers or Lender granting such participation but only if such Non-U.S. Recipient is legally entitled to do so), whichever of the following is applicable: (A) executed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN (or any successor form) or Form W-8BEN-E (or any successor form) claiming eligibility for benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party; (B) executed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI (or any successor form); (C) to the extent a Non-U.S. Recipient is not the beneficial owner, executed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY (or any successor form) and all required supporting documentation; (D) each Non-U.S. Recipient claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under section 881(c) of the Code, shall provide (x) a certificate to the effect that such Non-U.S. Recipient is not (I) a “bank” within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (II) a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrowers within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or (III) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code and (y) executed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN (or any successor form) or Form W-8BEN-E (or any successor form); and/or (E) executed copies of any other form prescribed by applicable law (including FATCA) as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in United States Federal withholding tax together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit Borrowers or Lender granting a participation, to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made;

(iii) If a payment made to Lender (or Participant) under any Loan Document would be subject to United States federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if Lender (or such Participant) were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), Lender (or such Participant) shall deliver to the Borrowers and Lender granting such participation at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrowers or Lender granting such participation such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrowers or Lender granting such participation as may be necessary for the Borrowers and Lender granting such participation to comply with their obligations

-44-

under FATCA and to determine that Lender or such Participant has complied with Lender’s or such Participant’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount, if any, to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this (iii), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement; and

(iv) If any form or certification previously delivered by Lender (or any Participant) expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, Lender (or any Participant) shall update such form or certification or promptly notify Borrowers (or Lender granting a participation) of its legal inability to do so.

(f) If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 9.1 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 9.1), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this Section 9.1(f) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 9.1(f), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this Section 9.1(f) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person. For purposes of this Section 9.1(f), all references to “refund” shall include the monetary benefit of a credit received in lieu of a refund of Taxes.

(g) Each party’s obligations under this Section 9.1 shall survive any assignment of rights by Lender or any Participant and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document.

10. GENERAL PROVISIONS.

10.1 Notices.

(a) Notice by Approved Electronic Communications.

Lender and each of its Affiliates is authorized to transmit, post or otherwise make or communicate, in its sole discretion (but shall not be required to do so), by Approved Electronic Communications in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document and the transactions contemplated therein. Lender is hereby authorized to establish procedures to provide access to and to make available or deliver, or to accept, notices, documents and similar items by posting to ABLServe. Each of the Loan Parties and Lender hereby acknowledges and agrees that the use of ABLServe and other Approved Electronic Communications is not necessarily secure and that there are risks associated with such use, including risks of interception, disclosure and abuse and each indicates it assumes and accepts such risks by hereby authorizing Lender and each of its Affiliates to transmit Approved Electronic Communications. ABLServe and all Approved Electronic Communications shall be provided “as is” and “as available”. None of Lender or any of its Affiliates or related persons warrants the accuracy, adequacy or completeness of ABLServe or any other electronic platform or electronic

-45-

transmission and disclaims all liability for errors or omissions therein. No warranty of any kind is made by Lender or any of its Affiliates or related persons in connection with ABLServe or any other electronic platform or electronic transmission, including any warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement of third-party rights or freedom from viruses or other code defects. Each Borrower and each other Loan Party executing this Agreement agrees that Lender has no responsibility for maintaining or providing any equipment, software, services or any testing required in connection with ABLServe, any Approved Electronic Communication or otherwise required for ABLServe or any Approved Electronic Communication.

Prior to the Closing Date, Borrowing Agent shall deliver to Lender a complete and executed Client User Form regarding Borrowing Agent’s use of ABLServe in the form of Exhibit C annexed hereto.

No Approved Electronic Communications shall be denied legal effect merely because it is made electronically. Approved Electronic Communications that are not readily capable of bearing either a signature or a reproduction of a signature may be signed, and shall be deemed signed, by attaching to, or logically associating with such Approved Electronic Communication, an E-Signature, upon which Lender and the Loan Parties may rely and assume the authenticity thereof. Each Approved Electronic Communication containing a signature, a reproduction of a signature or an E-Signature shall, for all intents and purposes, have the same effect and weight as a signed paper original. Each E-Signature shall be deemed sufficient to satisfy any requirement for a “signature” and each Approved Electronic Communication shall be deemed sufficient to satisfy any requirement for a “writing”, in each case including pursuant to this Agreement, any other Loan Document, the Uniform Commercial Code, the Federal Uniform Electronic Transactions Act, the Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act and any substantive or procedural law governing such subject matter. Each party or beneficiary hereto agrees not to contest the validity or enforceability of an Approved Electronic Communication or E-Signature under the provisions of any applicable law requiring certain documents to be in writing or signed; provided, that nothing herein shall limit such party’s or beneficiary’s right to contest whether an Approved Electronic Communication or E-Signature has been altered after transmission.

(b) All Other Notices.

All notices, requests, demands and other communications under or in respect of this Agreement or any transactions hereunder, other than those approved for or required to be delivered by Approved Electronic Communications (including via ABLServe or otherwise pursuant to Section 10.1(a)), shall be in writing and shall be personally delivered or mailed (by prepaid registered or certified mail, return receipt requested), sent by prepaid recognized overnight courier service, or by email to the applicable party at its address or email address indicated below,

10.2 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document is held invalid or unenforceable, either in its entirety or by virtue of its scope or application to given circumstances, such provision shall thereupon be deemed modified only to the extent necessary to render same valid, or not applicable to given circumstances, or excised from this Agreement or such other Loan Document, as the situation may require, and this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be construed and enforced as if such provision had been included herein as so modified in scope or application, or had not been included herein or therein, as the case may be.

10.3 Integration. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents represent the final, entire and complete agreement between each Loan Party party hereto and thereto and Lender and supersede all prior and contemporaneous negotiations, oral representations and agreements, all of which are merged and integrated into this Agreement. THERE ARE NO ORAL UNDERSTANDINGS, REPRESENTATIONS OR AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES THAT ARE NOT SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT OR THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS.

10.4 Waivers. The failure of Lender at any time or times to require any Loan Party to strictly comply with any of the provisions of this Agreement or any other Loan Documents shall not waive or diminish any right of Lender later to demand and receive strict compliance therewith. Any waiver of any default shall not waive or affect any other default, whether prior or subsequent, and whether or not similar. None of the provisions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be deemed to have been waived by any act or knowledge of Lender or its agents or employees, but only by a specific written waiver signed by an authorized officer of Lender and delivered to Borrowers. Once an Event of Default shall have occurred, it shall be deemed to continue to exist and not be cured or waived unless specifically cured

-47-

pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or waived in writing by an authorized officer of Lender and delivered to Borrowers. Each Loan Party waives demand, protest, notice of protest and notice of default or dishonor, notice of payment and nonpayment, release, compromise, settlement, extension or renewal of any commercial paper, Instrument, Account, General Intangible, Document, Chattel Paper, Investment Property or guaranty at any time held by Lender on which such Loan Party is or may in any way be liable, and notice of any action taken by Lender, unless expressly required by this Agreement, and notice of acceptance hereof.

10.5 Amendment. This Agreement may not be amended or modified except in a writing executed by Borrowers, the other Loan Parties party hereto (to the extent such amendment is directly adverse to such Loan Party), and Lender.

10.6 Time of Essence. Time is of the essence in the performance by each Loan Party of each and every obligation under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

10.7 Expenses, Fee and Costs Reimbursement. Borrowers hereby agree to promptly and jointly and severally pay (a) all fees, costs and expenses of Lender, (b) all out of pocket fees, costs and expenses of legal counsel to, and appraisers, accountants, consultants and other professionals and advisors retained by or on behalf of, Lender, all of which shall be reasonable, prior to the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, in connection with: (i) all loan proposals and commitments pertaining to the transactions contemplated hereby (whether or not such transactions are consummated), (ii) the examination, review, due diligence investigation, documentation, negotiation, and closing of the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents (whether or not such transactions are consummated), (iii) the creation, perfection and maintenance of Liens pursuant to the Loan Documents, (iv) the performance by Lender of its rights and remedies under the Loan Documents, (v) the administration of the Loans (including usual and customary fees for wire transfers and other transfers or payments received by Lender on account of any of the Obligations) and Loan Documents, (vi) any amendments, modifications, consents and waivers to and/or under any and all Loan Documents (whether or not such amendments, modifications, consents or waivers are consummated), (vii) any periodic public record searches conducted by or at the reasonable request of Lender (including, title investigations and public records searches), pending litigation and tax lien searches and searches of applicable corporate, limited liability company, partnership and related records concerning the continued existence, organization and good standing of certain Persons), (viii) protecting, storing, insuring, handling, maintaining, auditing, examining, valuing or selling any Collateral, (ix) any litigation, dispute, suit or proceeding relating to any Loan Document, and (x) any workout, collection, bankruptcy, insolvency and other enforcement proceedings under any and all of the Loan Documents (it being agreed that such costs and expenses may include the costs and expenses of workout consultants, investment bankers, financial consultants, appraisers, valuation firms and other professionals and advisors retained by or on behalf of Lender), and (c) without limitation of the preceding clauses (a) and (b), all out of pocket costs and expenses of Lender in connection with Lender’s reservation of funds in anticipation of the funding of the initial Loans to be made hereunder. Any fees, costs and expenses owing by Borrowers or any other Loan Party hereunder shall be due and payable within three (3) days after written demand therefor.

10.8 Benefit of Agreement; Assignability. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the respective successors, assigns, heirs, beneficiaries and representatives of Borrowers, each other Loan Party party hereto and Lender; provided, that neither any Borrower nor any other Loan Party may assign or transfer any of its rights under this Agreement without the prior written consent of Lender, and any prohibited assignment shall be void. No consent by Lender to any assignment shall release any Loan Party from its liability for any of the Obligations. Lender shall have the right to assign all or any of its rights and obligations under the Loan Documents to one or more other Persons, and each Loan Party agrees, to the extent applicable, to execute any agreements, instruments and documents requested by Lender in connection with any such assignments; provided that the consent of Borrowing

-48-

Agent shall be required (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) for any such assignment unless (a) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or (b) such assignment is to an Affiliate of Lender; provided, further, the consent of Borrowing Agent shall be deemed to have been given unless an objection is delivered to Lender within five (5) Business Days after notice of a proposed assignment or transfer is delivered to Borrowers. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document to the contrary, Lender may at any time pledge or grant a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to secure obligations of Lender, including any pledge or grant to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank.

10.9 Recordation of Assignment. In respect of any assignment of all or any portion of Lender’s interest in this Agreement and/or any other Loan Documents at any time and from time to time, the following provisions shall be applicable:

(a) Borrowers, or any agent appointed by Borrowers, shall maintain a register (the “Register”) in which there shall be recorded the name and address of each Person holding any Loans or any commitment to lend hereunder, and the principal amount and stated interest payable to such Person hereunder or committed by such Person under such Person’s lending commitment. Borrowers hereby irrevocably appoint Lender (and/or any subsequent Lender appointed by Lender then maintaining the Register) as Borrowers’ non-fiduciary agent for the purpose of maintaining the Register.

(b) In connection with any negotiation, transfer or assignment as aforesaid, the transferor/assignor shall deliver to Lender then maintaining the Register an assignment and assumption agreement executed by the transferor/assignor and the transferee/assignee, setting forth the specifics of the subject transaction, including but not limited to the amount and nature of Obligations and/or lending commitments being transferred or assigned (and being assumed, as applicable), and the proposed effective date of such transfer or assignment and the related assumption (if applicable).

(c) Subject to receipt of any required tax forms reasonably required by Lender, such Person shall record the subject transfer, assignment and assumption in the Register. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error; and each Borrower and each Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. The Register shall be available for inspection by each Borrower and each Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

10.10 Participations. Anything in this Agreement or any other Loan Document to the contrary notwithstanding, Lender may, at any time and from time to time, without in any manner affecting or impairing the validity of any Obligations, sell to one or more Persons participating interests in its Loans, commitments and/or other interests hereunder and/or under any other Loan Document (any such Person, a “Participant”). In the event of a sale by Lender of a participating interest to a Participant, (a) such Lender’s obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall remain unchanged for all purposes, (b) Borrowers and Lender shall continue to deal solely and directly with each other in connection with Lender’s rights and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and (c) all amounts payable by Borrowers shall be determined as if Lender had not sold such participation and shall be paid directly to Lender; provided, however, a Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.1 as if it were a Lender if Borrowers are notified of the participation and the Participant complies with Section 9.1(e). Borrowers agree that if amounts outstanding under this Agreement or any other Loan Document are due and payable (as a result of acceleration or otherwise), each Participant shall be deemed to have the right of set-off in respect of its participating interest in amounts owing under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to the same extent as if the amount of its participating interest were owing directly to it as a Lender under this Agreement; provided, that such right of set-off shall not be exercised without the prior written consent of Lender and shall be subject to the obligation of each Participant to share with Lender its share thereof.

-49-

Borrowers also agree that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.9 as if it were Lender. Notwithstanding the granting of any such participating interests: (x) Borrowers shall look solely to Lender for all purposes of this Agreement, the Loan Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby, (y) Borrowers shall at all times have the right to rely upon any amendments, waivers or consents signed by Lender as being binding upon all of the Participants, and (z) all communications in respect of this Agreement and such transactions shall remain solely between Borrowers and Lender (exclusive of Participants) hereunder. Lender granting a participation hereunder shall maintain, as a non-fiduciary agent of Borrowers, a register as to the participations granted and transferred under this Section containing the same information specified in Section 10.9 on the Register as if each Participant were a Lender to the extent required to cause the Loans to be in registered form for the purposes of Sections 163(f), 165(j), 871, 881, and 4701 of the Code.

10.11 Headings; Construction. Section and subsection headings are used in this Agreement only for convenience and do not affect the meanings of the provisions that they precede.

10.12 USA PATRIOT Act Notification. Lender hereby notifies the Loan Parties that pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act, it may be required to obtain, verify and record certain information and documentation that identifies such Person, which information may include the name and address of each such Person and such other information that will allow Lender to identify such Persons in accordance with the USA PATRIOT Act.

10.13 Counterparts; Email Signatures. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, all of which shall constitute one and the same agreement. This Agreement may be executed by signatures delivered by electronic mail, each of which shall be fully binding on the signing party.

10.14 GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT, ALONG WITH ALL OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS (UNLESS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED OTHERWISE IN SUCH OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT) SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK APPLICABLE TO CONTRACTS MADE AND TO BE PERFORMED THEREIN WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICT OF LAW PRINCIPLES (EXCEPT SECTIONS 5-1401 AND 5-1402 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATION LAW). FURTHER, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK SHALL APPLY TO ALL DISPUTES OR CONTROVERSIES ARISING OUT OF OR CONNECTED TO OR WITH THIS AGREEMENT AND ALL SUCH OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICT OF LAW PRINCIPLES (EXCEPT SECTIONS 5-1401 AND 5-1402 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATION LAW).

10.15 WAIVERS AND JURISDICTION.

(a) CONSENT TO JURISDICTION; WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL; CONSENT TO SERVICE OF PROCESS. ANY LEGAL ACTION, SUIT OR PROCEEDING WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT SHALL BE BROUGHT EXCLUSIVELY IN THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK IN THE COUNTY OF NEW YORK OR IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK OR IN ANY OTHER COURT (IN ANY JURISDICTION) SELECTED BY THE LENDER IN ITS SOLE DISCRETION, AND EACH BORROWER AND EACH OTHER LOAN PARTY HEREBY ACCEPTS FOR ITSELF AND IN RESPECT OF ITS PROPERTY, GENERALLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY, THE JURISDICTION OF THE AFOREMENTIONED COURTS. EACH BORROWER AND EACH OTHER LOAN PARTY HEREBY EXPRESSLY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY OBJECTION, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY OBJECTION TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OR BASED ON THE GROUNDS OF FORUM NON CONVENIENS, OR BASED UPON 28 U.S.C. § 1404, WHICH IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE BRINGING AND ADJUDICATION OF ANY SUCH ACTION, SUIT OR

-50-

PROCEEDING IN ANY OF THE AFOREMENTIONED COURTS AND AMENDMENTS TO THE GRANTING OF SUCH LEGAL OR EQUITABLE RELIEF AS IS DEEMED APPROPRIATE BY THE COURT. EACH BORROWER AND EACH OTHER LOAN PARTY HEREBY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM CONCERNING ANY RIGHTS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT, OR UNDER ANY AMENDMENT, WAIVER, AMENDMENT, INSTRUMENT, DOCUMENT OR OTHER AGREEMENT DELIVERED OR WHICH IN THE FUTURE MAY BE DELIVERED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR THEREWITH, OR ARISING FROM ANY FINANCING RELATIONSHIP EXISTING IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT, AND AGREES THAT ANY SUCH ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM SHALL BE TRIED BEFORE A COURT AND NOT BEFORE A JURY. EACH BORROWER AND EACH OTHER LOAN PARTY HEREBY WAIVES PERSONAL SERVICE OF ANY AND ALL PROCESS UPON ANY BORROWER OR ANY OTHER LOAN PARTY AND CONSENTS THAT ALL SUCH SERVICE OF PROCESS MAY BE MADE BY CERTIFIED MAIL (RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED) DIRECTED TO THE BORROWERS’ NOTICE ADDRESS (ON BEHALF OF THE BORROWERS OR SUCH LOAN PARTY) SET FORTH IN SECTION 10.1 HEREOF AND SERVICE SO MADE SHALL BE DEEMED TO BE COMPLETED FIVE (5) DAYS AFTER THE SAME SHALL HAVE BEEN SO DEPOSITED IN THE MAIL, OR, AT THE LENDER’S OPTION, BY SERVICE UPON BORROWERS OR ANY OTHER LOAN PARTY IN ANY OTHER MANNER PROVIDED UNDER THE RULES OF ANY SUCH COURTS.

(b) Dispute Resolution if Jury Waiver Not Enforceable.

(i) The parties have agreed, as set forth in Section 10.14 above, that the internal laws of the State of New York shall apply to this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the rights and obligations of the parties hereunder and thereunder, and the parties have agreed and strongly prefer that any dispute between them be resolved in litigation subject to the jury trial waiver set forth in Section 10.15 above. However, if, for any reason, a court of competent jurisdiction determines that California law is applicable to said jury trial waiver and that said jury trial waiver is unenforceable, invalid, ineffective or otherwise not applicable to any dispute between the parties (a “Dispute”), then (and only then) the parties agree that the following provisions shall apply to such Dispute: Such Dispute shall be resolved exclusively by judicial reference in accordance with Sections 638 et seq. of the California Code of Civil Procedure (“CCP”) and Rules 3.900 et seq. of the California Rules of Court (“CRC”), subject to the following terms and conditions. (All references in this section to provisions of the CCP and/or CRC shall be deemed to include any and all successor provisions.)

(ii) The reference shall be a consensual general reference pursuant to CCP Sections 638 and 644(a). Unless the parties otherwise agree in writing, the reference shall be to a single referee. The referee shall be a retired Judge of the Los Angeles County Superior Court (“Superior Court”) or a retired Justice of the California Court of Appeal or California Supreme Court. Nothing in this section shall be construed to limit the right of Lender, pending or after the appointment of the referee, to seek and obtain provisional relief from the Superior Court or such referee, or any other court in a jurisdiction in which any Collateral is located or having jurisdiction over any Collateral, including without limitation, writ of attachment, writ of possession, appointment of a receiver, temporary restraining order and/or preliminary injunction, or other “provisional remedy” (as such term is defined in CCP Section 1281.8).

(iii) Within fifteen (15) days after a party gives written notice in accordance with this Agreement to all other parties to a Dispute that the Dispute exists and these provisions are applicable to the Dispute, all parties to the Dispute shall attempt to agree on the individual to be appointed as referee. If the parties are unable to agree on the individual to be appointed as referee, the referee shall be appointed, upon noticed motion or ex parte application by any party, by the Superior Court in accordance with CCP Section 640, subject to all rights of the parties to challenge or object to the appointment, including without

-51-

limitation the right to peremptory challenge under CCP Section 170.6. If the referee (or any successor referee) appointed by the Superior Court is unable, or at any time becomes unable, to serve as referee in the Dispute, the Superior Court shall appoint a new referee as agreed to by the parties or, if the parties cannot agree, in accordance with CCP Section 640, which new referee shall then have the same powers, and be subject to the same terms and conditions, as the predecessor referee.

(iv) Venue for all proceedings before the referee, and for any Superior Court proceeding for the appointment of the referee, shall be exclusively within the County of Los Angeles, State of California. The referee shall have the exclusive power to determine whether a Dispute is subject to judicial reference pursuant to this section. Trial, and all proceedings and hearings on dispositive motions, conducted before the referee shall be conducted in the presence of, and shall be transcribed by, a court reporter, unless otherwise agreed in writing by all parties to the proceeding. The referee shall issue a written statement of decision, which shall be subject to objections of the parties pursuant to CRC Rule 3.1590 as if the statement of decision were issued by the Superior Court. The referee’s powers include, in addition to those set forth in CCP Sections 638, et seq., and CRC Rules 3.900 et seq., (i) the power to grant provisional relief, including without limitation, writ of attachment, writ of possession, appointment of a receiver, temporary restraining order and/or preliminary injunction, or other “provisional remedy” (as such term is defined in CCP Section 1281.8), and (ii) the power to hear and resolve all post-trial matters in connection with the Dispute that would otherwise be determined by the Superior Court, including without limitation motions for new trial, reconsideration, to vacate judgment, to stay execution or enforcement, to tax costs, and/or for attorneys’ fees. The parties shall, subject to the referee’s power to award costs to the prevailing party, bear equally the costs of the reference proceeding, including without limitation the fees and costs of the referee and the court reporter.

The parties acknowledge and agree that (i) the referee alone shall determine all issues of fact and/or law in the Dispute, without a jury (subject, however, to the right of a party, pending or after the appointment of the referee, to seek and obtain provisional relief from the Superior Court or such referee, including without limitation, writ of attachment, writ of possession, appointment of a receiver, temporary restraining order and/or preliminary injunction, or other “provisional remedy” (as such term is defined in CCP Section 1281.8)), (ii) the referee does not have the power to empanel a jury, (iii) the Superior Court shall enter judgment on the decision of the referee pursuant to CCP Section 644(a) as if the decision were issued by the Superior Court, (iv) the decision of the referee shall not be subject to review by the Superior Court, and (v) the decision of the referee, once entered as a judgment by the Superior Court, shall be binding, final and conclusive, shall have the full force and effect of a judgment of the Superior Court, and shall be subject to appeal to the same extent as a judgment of the Superior Court.

10.16 Publication. Each Borrower and each other Loan Party consents to the publication by Lender of a tombstone, press releases or similar advertising material relating to the financing transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and Lender reserves the right to provide to industry trade organizations information necessary and customary for inclusion in league table measurements.

10.17 Confidentiality.
