BACKGROUND

A.    On October 4, 2017, Borrowers, Lenders, and Agent entered into a certain Revolving Credit, Term Loan, and Security Agreement (as same has been or may be amended, modified, renewed, extended, replaced or substituted from time to time, the “Loan Agreement”) to reflect certain financing arrangements between the parties thereto. The Loan Agreement and all other documents executed in connection therewith are collectively referred to as the “Existing Financing Agreements.” All capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed thereto in the Loan Agreement.

B.    An Event of Default has occurred under the Loan Agreement as a result of the failure of Borrowers to contract for, purchase or make any expenditure or commitments for Capital Expenditures in an aggregate amount less than $1,000,000 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018 as required under Section 7.6 of the Loan Agreement (the “Existing Event of Default”).

C.    Borrowers have informed Agent and Lenders that Vital Farms intends to make loans (collectively, the “Shareholder Loans”) to Matthew O’Hayer and Jason Jones in an amount not to exceed $3,200,000 and $800,000, respectively.

D.    The Borrowers have requested and the Agent and the Lenders have agreed, subject to the terms and conditions of this Amendment, to (i) waive the Existing Event of Default, (ii) consent to the Shareholder Loans, and (iii) modify certain definitions, terms and conditions in the Loan Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, with the foregoing background hereinafter deemed incorporated by reference herein and made part hereof, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, promise and agree as follows:

1.    Waiver of Existing Event of Default. Subject to the terms and conditions contained herein, upon the effectiveness of this Amendment, Agent and Lenders hereby waive the Existing Event of Default; provided, however that such waiver shall in no way constitute a waiver of any other Defaults or Events of Default which may have occurred but which are not specifically referenced as the Existing Event of Default, nor shall this waiver obligate Agent or Lenders to provide any further waiver of any other Default or Event of Default (whether similar or dissimilar, including any further Default or Event of Default resulting from a failure to comply with the terms of the Loan Agreement). Other than in respect of the Existing Event of Default, this waiver shall not preclude the future exercise of any right, power, or privilege available to Agent or Lenders whether under the Loan Agreement, the Other Documents or otherwise. Agent and Lenders have not been advised by the Borrowers of the existence of, and is not otherwise aware of, any Defaults or Events of Default other than the Existing Event of Default, and the Borrowers have represented to Agent and Lenders that no Default or Event of Default, other than the Existing Event of Default, has occurred and is continuing under any of the Loan Documents.

2.    Consent. Notwithstanding anything contained in Sections 7.4, 7.5 or 7.10 of the Loan Agreement, or elsewhere in the Credit Agreement or the Other Documents, Agent and Lenders hereby consent to the Shareholder Loans. The foregoing consent shall be effective only as to the Shareholder Loans. This consent shall not be deemed a consent to the breach by any Borrower of any covenants or agreements contained in the Loan Agreement or any of the Other Documents with respect to any other transaction or matter. Each Borrower agrees that the set forth in this paragraph shall be limited to the precise meaning of the words as written therein and shall not be deemed (i) to be a consent to any waiver or modification of, or a departure from the requirements of, any other term or condition of the Loan Agreement or any of the Other Documents, or (ii) to prejudice any right or remedy that Agent or any Lender may now have or may in the future have under or in connection with the Loan Agreement or any of the Other Documents other than with respect to the matters for which the consent in this paragraph has been provided. This consent shall not be construed as establishing a course of conduct on the part of Agent or any Lender upon which a Borrower may rely at any time in the future. Each Borrower expressly waives any right to assert any claim to such effect at any time
