In the event Borrower notifies Lender of the termination of this Agreement as provided herein, the change set forth in the Change Notice shall not take effect, provided Borrower pays in full all Loans and Obligations within sixty days of the date of Borrower's notice of termination to Lender.


1.ADVANCES

3.1.Request for Advance. Provided no Event of Default exists, and provided neither Borrower nor Lender have elected to terminate Borrower's ability to request Advances under this Agreement, Borrower may request that Lender extend credit in the form of Advances to finance or partially finance Borrower's purchase or acquisition of Inventory and/or Equipment from manufacturers, distributors, dealers, auctions, and other suppliers, or to finance Inventory or Equipment already owned by Borrower, or for such other permitted purposes as Lender may agree to, within its discretion. Requests for Advances may be submitted by any officer or other authorized representative of Borrower, or by Borrower's manufacturers, distributors, dealers, auctions, or other suppliers of Inventory and Equipment. Additionally, provided no Event of Default exists, and provided neither Borrower nor Lender have elected to terminate Borrower's ability to request Loans hereunder, Borrower may request that Lender extend credit in the form of one or more other types of Loans, or make an Advance thereunder. The proceeds of all such Loans shall be used exclusively by Borrower for working capital purposes in the ordinary course of business, or for such other purpose or purposes as Lender may agree, in writing. Requests for other types of Loans or Advances thereunder may be made in accordance with procedures established by Lender from time to time, and must be accompanied by whatever documentation Lender may then require.

3.2.Discretionary Lending. Lender has no obligation whatsoever, under this Agreement or otherwise, to make Advances or Loans to Borrower under any circumstance. Lender's decision to do so is and shall always be solely within Lender's discretion, and Lender may refuse to make Advances or Loans to Borrower, and may limit the purpose or purposes for which the proceeds of an Advance or Loan may be used, and may limit the amount of aggregate Advances, or the amount of any single Advance, for any or no reason, with or without cause. Lender may, with or without notice to Borrower, suspend Advances or Loans to Borrower, for any or no reason, with or without cause. Nothing under this Agreement, or any other existing or future agreement or understanding between the parties, whether in writing or in the form of oral statements, or any conduct or course of dealing on the part of Lender, or on the part of its officers, employees, agents, or attorneys, may be construed by Borrower, or by Borrower's owners, principals or management officials, or any Guarantor, or by any court of law or equity, or in arbitration, to in any way obligate or commit Lender to make Advances or Loans to Borrower, or to any third party on Borrower's behalf, or to amend, alter or in any way modify the discretionary nature of the lending relationship between Lender and Borrower. Lender and Borrower expressly agree that the Covenant of Good Faith and Fair Dealing may not be used to amend, alter or in any way modify the express discretionary nature of the lending relationship between Lender and Borrower. Borrower and each Guarantor recognize that the above provisions are essential, bargained-for covenants, which may not be waived or modified by Lender under any circumstance.

3.3.Funding of Loan Advances. Lender may make the Loan Advances available in the form of a direct electronic fund transfer ("EFT") deposit into Borrower's designated deposit account with Borrower's bank, or in the form of check or draft payable to Borrower's order, or by other means approved by Lender from time to time. Lender additionally may elect to fund Loan Advances by making payments directly to each manufacturer, distributor, dealer, auction, or other supplier of Inventory and Equipment, by EFT debit or otherwise. Lender may make payment from time to time in accordance with, and in reliance upon, any invoice, draft, debit, contract, advice or other notice received by Lender from such manufacturer, distributor, dealer, auction or supplier. Lender is not required to verify Borrower's order or shipment of any Inventory or Equipment, and is not responsible for any non-conforming delivery, failure of delivery, or defect in any Inventory or Equipment.

3.4.Maximum Amounts. The inventory financing credit facilities described herein are subject to Maximum Amounts. If, at any time, the total outstanding Advances should exceed the Maximum Amounts, any excess over and above the Maximum Amounts shall be payable by Borrower immediately upon demand by Lender. Borrower agrees that any agreement by Lender to make an Advance in excess of the Maximum Amounts, or Lender's failure to make demand on Borrower for payment of any excess, shall not be construed as a waiver by Lender of Lender's right to enforce the Maximum Amounts, or subsequently demand the immediate payment of such excess. Any demand for repayment of Advances in excess of Maximum Amounts may be made by Lender, in its discretion. The Maximum Amounts that apply to Borrower's Loans and Obligations are set forth in the Operative Schedule 1.

3.5.Minimum Advances and Minimum Balances. The inventory financing credit facilities described herein are subject to Minimum Advances and Minimum Balances. Borrower shall not request an Advance in connection with any item of Financed Inventory or Financed Equipment in an amount less than the Minimum Advance. If, at any time, the total unpaid principal amount in connection with any item of Financed Inventory or Financed Equipment should be less than the Minimum Balance, the full unpaid principal amount in connection with such item of Financed Inventory or Financed Equipment shall be due and payable by Borrower immediately upon demand by Lender. Borrower agrees that any agreement by Lender to make an Advance less than the Minimum Advance, or Lender's failure to make demand on Borrower for payment of the unpaid principal balance of an item of Financed Inventory or Financed Equipment that has fallen below the Minimum Balance, shall not be construed as a waiver by Lender of Lender's right to enforce the Minimum Advance or Minimum Balance, or subsequently demand the immediate payment of said unpaid principal balance. Any demand for repayment of any unpaid principal balance less than the Minimum Balance may be made by Lender, in its discretion. The Minimum Advances and Minimum Balances that apply to Borrower's Loans and Obligations are set forth in the Operative Schedule 1.


1.INTEREST

4.1.Interest. All Loans and Obligations shall bear interest from the date of each Advance to the date of repayment by Borrower in good

funds. Interest shall be calculated daily on the unpaid principal balance owed at the close of business of each day. Interest will be

601 MLA (Rev. 7/21) MASTER LOAN AGREEMENT Page 3

assessed by application of a daily interest factor to the unpaid principal balance as outstanding from time to time. The daily interest factor is to be determined by dividing the then applicable interest rate by 360, and then applying that daily interest factor over the number of days elapsed in a calendar year of 365 days, or 366 days in a leap year.

4.2.Interest Rates. Interest will be assessed on Borrower's Loans and Obligations on a variable rate basis unless otherwise provided in a promissory note, or unless expressly prohibited by law. The Variable Interest Rates that apply to Borrower's Loans and Obligations shall be determined by the application of the Margin to the Variable Rate Index. The Variable Interest Rate is subject to adjustment at the Adjustment Intervals. The interest rate, Margin, Variable Rate Index, and Adjustment Intervals that apply to Borrower's Loans (except for Loans evidenced by a separate promissory note) and Obligations are set forth in the Operative Schedule 1. Lender may charge different rates of interest for different kinds of Loans or Obligations, or for Advances on different kinds of Inventory or Equipment. The rates of interest applicable to Borrower are not necessarily the lowest rate charged by Lender on its loans. Borrower understands

that Lender may make loans based on other rates, in Lender's discretion.

4.3.Default Interest. If Lender determines, in its discretion, that an Event of Default exists, to the extent permitted by law, Lender may immediately assess a default rate of interest in an amount equal to the lesser of (a) the non-default rate of interest plus 400 basis points, or (b) the maximum interest rate permitted by law.

4.4.Interest Savings Clause. Under no circumstances will the rate of interest payable by Borrower be more than the maximum rate allowed by applicable law. It is Lender's intent to strictly comply with all laws relating to interest and usury. Accordingly, notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement or any Related Document to the contrary, Borrower is not obligated to pay, nor will Lender accept payment of, interest in excess of that allowed by applicable law. Should Lender receive interest in excess of that allowed by applicable law, Lender may at its option refund the amount erroneously paid, or Lender may credit that amount to Borrower's then principal Obligations.


5.PAYMENT

5.1.Evidence of Indebtedness. Lender's internal records, including Lender's computer/electronic records, shall create a rebuttable presumption of the outstanding principal balance of all Loans and Obligations, as well as the amount of interest and Charges that may be owed to Lender at any time, and from time to time, which presumption may be overcome by Borrower or Guarantor only by clear and convincing evidence. Lender shall make monthly statements available to Borrower, through a web-based portal or otherwise, of Advances made by Lender to Borrower, interest and Charges charged to Borrower, and payments made by Borrower. Borrower shall review any such statements promptly as they are made available to Borrower, and advise Lender, in writing, of any discrepancy or error. If Borrower fails to advise Lender of any discrepancy or error in any such statement within ten Business Days of the date such statements are made available to Borrower, the statement shall be conclusively deemed to be correct, and conclusive evidence of the outstanding principal balance of all Loans and Obligations, as well as the amount of interest and Charges that may be owed to Lender at any time, and from time to time. It is not necessary for Borrower to execute promissory notes in favor of Lender to evidence Borrower's obligation to pay Loans and Obligations for Financed Inventory or Financed Equipment subject to this Agreement.

5.2.Promise to Pay. Borrower unconditionally promises to pay to Lender the principal amount of each and every Loan that Lender may extend to Borrower and to others on Borrower's behalf, together with the principal amount of each and every Obligation that Borrower may incur in favor of Lender. Borrower additionally promises to pay interest to Lender computed on the principal balance of all outstanding Loans and Obligations, from the date of each Loan or the incurring of each Obligation, and to pay all Charges when due.

5.3.Interest Payments and Charges. Borrower unconditionally promises to pay Lender the interest earned and accrued on the unpaid balance of all Loans and Obligations during a Calendar Month and all Charges incurred in said Calendar Month on the first day of the following month, unless a Note evidencing the Loan provides otherwise, in which case the terms of the Note shall control.

5.4.Principal Payments – Financed Inventory and Financed Equipment. Borrower unconditionally promises to pay Lender following the Sale of each item of Borrower's Financed Inventory or Financed Equipment, a sum equal to the Amount Financed attributable to that item not later than the Payment Due Dates.

Borrower is obligated under all circumstances to make such principal payments to Lender irrespective of whether the net Sale proceeds of any item of Financed Inventory or Financed Equipment exceeds the Amount Financed for that item.

5.5.Curtailments. Borrower promises to make monthly principal reduction payments, or to pay off Advances, in accordance with the Curtailment Schedule. These payments are due immediately upon demand by Lender. The Curtailment Schedule that applies to Borrower's Loans and Obligations is set forth in the Operative Schedule 1.

5.6.Principal and Interest Payments – Loans other than Financed Inventory and Financed Equipment. Principal payments on all Loans and Obligations other than Loans for Financed Inventory and Financed Equipment are payable monthly, or as set forth in the terms of those other various loan documents and Notes. Borrower's obligation to pay principal and interest under each Note shall be evidenced by both this Agreement and a separate Note for each Loan. Each Loan shall be secured by all present and future Collateral. An Event of Default with respect to any particular Loan or Obligation shall be an Event of Default with respect to all other Loans and Obligations.

5.7.Form and Application of Payments. Borrower will transmit payments via EFT or wire, or mail or deliver certified funds to Lender at 220 East Las Colinas Boulevard, Suite 500, Irving, TX 75039, or at such other place as Lender may designate in writing from time to time. All payments are to be made in U.S. dollars. Lender reserves the right, at any time and for any reason, to require that Borrower make payment by certified or cashier's check, or alternatively, in the form of electronic deposits in immediately available funds into Lender's designated deposit account. Lender may apply all sums received to the payment of principal, interest and Charges on Borrower's then outstanding Loans and Obligations in such order and with such priority as Lender may determine within its discretion.

5.8.Late Charges. Lender may, in its discretion, assess a late charge on any amounts that are not paid by the Late Charge Dates, in the Late Charge Amounts set by Lender. Said late charges are in addition to interest. Borrower and Lender agree that it is difficult to estimate the actual expense to Lender caused by late payments, and that said Late Charge Amounts are a reasonable estimate of those expenses.


1.COLLATERAL PROCEEDS

6.1.Borrower's Obligation to Pay Collateral Proceeds to Lender; Trust Relationship. Upon receipt by Borrower of proceeds from the Sale of an item of Financed Inventory or Financed Equipment, or arising out of the sale of chattel paper originated in connection with credit Sales of Borrower's Financed Inventory or Financed Equipment, Borrower shall, not later than the Payment Due Dates, pay Lender the amount of proceeds equal to the Amount Financed in connection with the item of Financed Inventory or Financed Equipment. Once received by Borrower, such proceeds are the property of Lender, and at all times while Borrower may hold such proceeds, Borrower shall do so in trust for, and on behalf of, Lender. Borrower and Lender intend there to be a true trust relationship

between Borrower and Lender, with Borrower assuming full fiduciary duties, responsibilities, and obligations to and in favor of Lender, with regard to the Collateral proceeds. Borrower's use of the Collateral proceeds for any other purpose without first paying Lender the Amount Financed in connection with the item of Collateral shall be a breach of this Agreement and of Borrower's fiduciary duties and obligations in favor of Lender, shall constitute a prohibited conversion of Lender's Collateral, and shall be considered a sale out of trust.

6.2.Trade-in Vehicles as Proceeds of Sale. In the event Borrower accepts a "trade-in" vehicle as proceeds of Sale of an item of

601 MLA (Rev. 7/21) MASTER LOAN AGREEMENT Page 4

Financed Inventory or Financed Equipment, the trade-in vehicle shall be deemed an item of Financed Inventory, and the Amount Financed in connection with the trade-in vehicle shall be deemed to be the unpaid balance of the Amount Financed in connection with the item of Financed Inventory or Financed Equipment for which the trade-in vehicle was taken in trade. Borrower shall hold said trade-in vehicle in trust for Lender, and, upon Sale of the trade-in vehicle, Borrower shall hold the proceeds received from the Sale of the trade-in vehicle in trust for Lender, and shall make payment to Lender of the Amount Financed in accordance with the Payment Due Dates for Financed Inventory and Equipment.

6.3.Down Payment Received as Proceeds. In the event Borrower receives a Down Payment in connection with the Sale of an item of Financed Inventory or Financed Equipment, Borrower shall hold said Down Payment in trust for Lender, and pay said Down Payment over to Lender not later than the Payment Due Dates.

6.4.Fleet Sales. Upon request by Lender, Borrower shall execute, and shall cause the purchaser to execute, Lender's Fleet Sale Account Assignment form, or other similar form acceptable to Lender, in its discretion, with regard to any "fleet sales" of Inventory, as that term

is defined by Lender. Proceeds of fleet sales pursuant to the Fleet Sale Account Assignment shall be applied first to pay the Amount Financed in connection with the Sold Financed Inventory, and any excess proceeds shall be turned over to Borrower.

6.5.Net Funding of Chattel Paper. In the event Lender purchases chattel paper which is the proceed of an item of Financed Inventory or Financed Equipment, Lender may, in its discretion, fund the purchase of the chattel paper net of the Amount Financed in connection with the item.

6.6.In-Kind Payments. Lender may, at its option, at any time and for any or no reason, with or without cause, require that Borrower pay over and deliver to Lender the Collateral proceeds in the form received, including delivery of third-party checks and drafts, properly endorsed by Borrower or such other payee thereof, that are received by Borrower for Sales of Financed Inventory or Financed Equipment, or arising out of Sales of chattel paper originated in connection with credit Sales of Borrower's Financed Inventory or Financed Equipment.


1.SECURITY, PERFECTION AND PROTECTION OF COLLATERAL

7.1.Grant of Security Interest. Borrower hereby grants Lender a continuing security interest in the Collateral to secure the prompt and punctual payment and satisfaction of each and every Loan and Obligation. Lender's security rights and interest will continue until all Loans and Obligations, including possible contingent Obligations, are fully paid and satisfied and Lender elects to cancel and terminate its security interest. This is a continuing Security Agreement, which will continue in effect until canceled by Lender even though all or any part of Borrower's Obligations may be paid in full, and even though for a period of time Borrower may not be then obligated to Lender. All of the Loans and Obligations, including Advances used to purchase other Collateral or used for purposes unrelated to the purchase of any Collateral, shall be secured by all of the Collateral, whether or not purchased through Advances.

7.2.Perfection. Borrower authorizes Lender to file financing statements, continuation statements, amendments, and other documents, and to take whatever additional actions Lender deems necessary and proper to perfect, re-perfect and continue perfection of Lender's security interest. To the extent that Lender may have previously filed a financing statement affecting any of the Collateral, Borrower ratifies and confirms Lender's authority to do so, and the contents and binding effectiveness of such statement. Borrower shall fully cooperate with Lender in executing, and obtaining execution by any of Borrower's other creditors of, any subordination agreement or intercreditor agreement requested by Lender, from time to time. Borrower shall reimburse Lender for all expenses incurred with respect to perfection, re-perfection and continuation of the perfection of Lender's security interest. Without limitation of the generality of the foregoing: (a) to the extent that any of the Collateral is held by a third party (such as consignee or bailee) (i) notice of the security interest created by this Agreement in such Collateral shall be given to each such third party, and (ii) Borrower shall, upon request by Lender, obtain and deliver to Lender a written and signed acknowledgement from each such third party that it is holding the Collateral for the benefit of Lender; (b) to the extent that any of the Collateral is comprised of deposit accounts or investment property, Borrower shall, upon request by Lender (i) provide to Lender all consents, control agreements, and other agreements or instruments from third parties that are desirable or required by Lender to perfect Lender's security interest in such Collateral, and (ii) take all other actions, and obtain, execute and deliver such documents and instruments, as are desired or required by Lender to perfect Lender's security interest in such Collateral and give Lender control (as defined and described in the Code) of such Collateral; (c) to the extent that any of the Collateral is comprised of types of Collateral that can be perfected by possession, or by either possession or filing, all such Collateral shall be delivered to Lender upon request; and (d) Borrower agrees to execute any further documents, and to take any further actions, reasonably requested by Lender to evidence, perfect or protect the security interests granted herein or to effectuate the rights granted to Lender herein. Lender is authorized, at Borrower's cost and expense, to obtain all post-filing searches from all jurisdictions that Lender deems advisable to confirm the proper priority of all filings made by Lender under this Agreement. Borrower and Guarantor are not authorized to file

amendments, restatements, releases or terminations of Lender's financing statements, amendments and continuations. Upon request by Lender, Borrower shall stamp or legend its books and records concerning the Collateral with a notation in form satisfactory to Lender, or take such other action as may be required to place third parties on notice of Lender's security interest.

7.3.Perfection – Demonstrator Vehicles, Service Loaner Vehicles and Special Use Vehicles. All Demonstrator Vehicles, Service Loaner Vehicles and other special use vehicles (collectively, "Special Use Vehicles") will remain part of the Collateral under this Agreement. In addition, all Special Use Vehicles will remain available for sale by Borrower to its customers during all periods that they are classified as (or in service as) Special Use Vehicles. The parties intend that all Special Use Vehicles shall remain Inventory of Borrower so that Lender's liens and security interests remain perfected in all Special Use Vehicles based upon the UCC financing statements that Lender has filed (or will file) pursuant to this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon demand by Lender, or if, under any applicable state titling statute, Special Use Vehicles are required to be titled and/or registered with a state in order to be used and operated as Special Use Vehicles in such state, then Borrower will promptly (but in no event later than two Business Days after demand by Lender, or classification of any items of Inventory as Demonstrator Vehicles or Service Loaner Vehicles, as the case may be) make all applications, pay all fees and taxes and otherwise cause the appropriate agency to issue a certificate of title and/or registration for the Special Use Vehicles used in such state, showing Borrower as the owner and Lender as the first priority lienholder. Borrower shall be solely responsible for the payment of all taxes, costs, fees and expenses with respect to the titling and registration of such Special Use Vehicles and for perfecting and continuing perfection of Lender's liens and security interests in such Special Use Vehicles. Borrower shall deliver any original certificates of title for any Special Use Vehicles to Lender promptly after Borrower receives the same from the applicable state. Borrower shall provide copies of all applications, and evidence of the payment of all fees and taxes, to Lender promptly after Borrower files and pays the same.

7.4.Protection of Lender's Security Rights. Borrower and each Guarantor are fully responsible for any and all losses Lender may suffer as a result of anyone other than Lender asserting any right to or interest in any of the Collateral. If and when requested by Lender, Borrower will appear in and defend all actions and proceedings purporting to affect Lender's security rights and interests. Should Borrower fail to do what is required of it under this Agreement, or if any action or proceeding is commenced or threatened naming Lender as a party, or affecting Lender's security rights and interests, then Lender may, without waiving any right or remedy that Lender may have, and without releasing Borrower or any Guarantor from any of their respective Obligations, do whatever Lender believes is necessary and proper within its discretion, including advancing additional sums on Borrower's behalf, to protect the security of its Collateral under this Agreement.

Except as may otherwise be provided in the "Lender's Rights and Remedies in Event of Default" section of this Agreement, Borrower shall deposit all Collateral proceeds exclusively in Borrower's designated Operating Account.

Account that are derived from any source, whether or not such funds constitute Collateral proceeds. So long as no Event of Default exists, Borrower may continue to make payments and withdrawals from Borrower's Operating Account in the ordinary course of business, subject to Borrower's continuing obligation to make payments to Lender as provided in this Agreement. Lender will not unilaterally withdraw funds from the Operating Account in the absence of an Event of Default.

In the event the institution fails or refuses to do so, Borrower shall establish its Operating Account at an institution which complies with this requirement.


1.CASH MANAGEMENT PROGRAM

10.1.Cash Management Program. Lender has established a Cash Management Program as described herein ("CMP"). To reduce the amount of interest payable to Lender, Borrower may make payment to Lender of funds pursuant to the CMP, which shall be held by Lender as cash collateral ("CMP Funds"). By making payment of CMP Funds, Borrower warrants and represents to Lender that such CMP Funds belong to, and are the property of, Borrower, and that such CMP Funds are unencumbered. It shall be conclusively presumed that such CMP Funds are not subject to claim or lien of any kind whatsoever. Upon demand by Lender, Borrower shall provide to Lender documentation of the source of funds used to make payment of CMP Funds. Each payment of CMP Funds shall be in an amount not less than the CMP Minimum Payments set forth in the Operative Schedule 1.

10.2.CMP Balance. The aggregate amount of CMP Funds paid to Lender by any particular Borrower, and not re-advanced by Lender to such Borrower ("CMP Balance") shall not at any time exceed the percentage of the aggregate of the Advances for such Borrower's new and used Financed Inventory, exclusive of Advances for fleet transactions or similar transactions ("CMP Maximum Balance"), as set forth in the Operative Schedule 1.

10.3.Application of CMP Balance. CMP Funds need not be segregated by Lender, and may be commingled by Lender and used by Lender in the ordinary course of its business. CMP Funds shall: (a) not be deemed to pay off or be allocated or applied to any particular item of Financed Inventory; and (b) not reduce or eliminate Borrower's obligation under this Agreement to (i) pay the full Amount Financed on any item of Financed Inventory or

Financed Equipment when such item of Financed Inventory or Financed Equipment is Sold, (ii) make any payment pursuant to the Curtailment Schedule, or (iii) pay any interest or other Charges under this Agreement. If any particular Borrower elects to participate in Lender's Cash Management Program, such Borrower shall maintain a CMP Balance of not less than the CMP Funds Minimum Balance, as set forth in the Operative Schedule 1.

10.4.CMP Interest Credit. Once each month, Lender will credit a CMP Interest Credit against interest, due from a particular Borrower to Lender, accrued in connection with Financed Inventory. The CMP Interest Credit will be an amount equal to each daily CMP Balance for that month, for that Borrower, multiplied by the lowest then current interest rate charged by Lender to that Borrower in connection with Financed Inventory. No CMP Interest Credit will be accrued or applied during the existence of any Event of Default under this Agreement or any Related Document.

10.5.Re-Advance of CMP Funds. Except as provided herein, Borrower may make a written request for a re-advance in any amount not in excess of the CMP Balance, and Lender shall re-advance such CMP Funds, unless Borrower is in default pursuant to this Agreement, or unless the Operative Schedule 1 sets a required minimum CMP Balance ("CMP Minimum Balance"). Borrower shall not request re-advance of a particular payment of CMP Funds until three Business Days after that particular payment of CMP Funds.

10.6.CMP Minimum Balance. In the event Lender has set a CMP Minimum Balance in the Operative Schedule 1: (a) Borrower shall maintain a CMP Balance equal to or greater than the CMP Minimum

601 MLA (Rev. 7/21) MASTER LOAN AGREEMENT Page 6

Balance until all Obligations owing from Borrower to Lender are paid in full, or until otherwise agreed by Lender, in writing; (b) Borrower shall not request a re-advance which would cause the CMP Balance to fall below the CMP Minimum Balance; and (c) Lender shall have no obligation to re-advance CMP Funds which would cause the CMP Balance to fall below the CMP Minimum Balance.

10.7.Termination of Cash Management Program. The Cash Management Program may be terminated by Borrower or Lender on not less than thirty days prior written notice.


1.DEMONSTRATOR VEHICLES AND SERVICE LOANER VEHICLES

11.1.Requests for Demonstrator Vehicle or Service Loaner Vehicle Classification. Provided Borrower has not exceeded the Demonstrator Vehicles Maximum Amount or the Service Loaner Vehicles Maximum Amount (as the case may be), as set forth in the Operative Schedule 1, Borrower may request that Lender classify a vehicle in Borrower's Financed Inventory as a Demonstrator Vehicle or Service Loaner Vehicle. Such request shall be deemed approved unless Lender notifies Borrower, telephonically or in writing, that such request is denied. If approved, such vehicle shall be classified as a Demonstrator Vehicle or Service Loaner Vehicle, as the case may be, and shall be subject to the terms of this section. Requests for classification of an item of Financed Inventory as a Demonstrator Vehicle or Service Loaner Vehicle shall be made in accordance with procedures established by Lender from time to time and must be accompanied by whatever documentation Lender may then require.

11.2.Absolute Discretionary Nature of Demonstrator Vehicle and Service Loaner Vehicle Classification. Lender has no obligation whatsoever, under this Agreement or otherwise, to allow items of Financed Inventory to be classified and put into service as Demonstrator Vehicles or Service Loaner Vehicles under any circumstance. Lender's decision to do so is and shall always be solely within Lender's exclusive judgment and discretion, and Lender may refuse to allow such classifications.

11.3.Removing Demonstrator Vehicle or Service Loaner Vehicle Classification. Borrower may voluntarily remove a vehicle from Demonstrator Vehicle or Service Loaner Vehicle classification at any time by providing notice to Lender. Borrower shall remove a vehicle from Demonstrator Vehicle or Service Loaner Vehicle classification if directed to do so by Lender.

Principal reduction payments in an amount determined by Lender (in accordance with Lender's internal policies in effect from time to time) shall be due and payable on a monthly basis, pursuant to the Curtailment Schedule. The Curtailment Schedule that applies to Borrower's Demonstrator Vehicles and Service Loaner Vehicles is set forth in the Operative Schedule 1. The amount of such monthly principal payments shall be set forth in the monthly statements made available or provided by Lender to Borrower. A monthly principal payment as set forth in the Curtailment Schedule shall be due and payable if a vehicle is classified as a Demonstrator Vehicle or Service Loaner Vehicle for any portion of a month. Interest on the Amount Financed in connection with any vehicle classified as a Demonstrator Vehicle or Service Loaner Vehicle shall continue to be assessed at the applicable Variable Interest Rate under this Agreement, as set forth in the Operative Schedule 1.

Borrower shall have on file for each user a photocopy of the user's driver's license, a copy of the signed agreement referenced above, and a copy of the user's proof of insurance ("Demonstrator Documents").

11.8.Additional Prohibitions for Demonstrator Vehicles and Service Loaner Vehicles. In addition to the prohibitions provided under this Agreement, Borrower shall not, without Lender's prior written consent, allow any Customer to use any Demonstrator Vehicle or Service Loaner Vehicle: (a) outside of the limits of the United States; (b) in violation of any federal, state or local statute, law, ordinance, rule or regulation, or contrary to the provisions of any applicable insurance policy; (c) for towing; (d) in a race or contest of speed, performance or durability; or (e) as a taxicab, public livery vehicle, daily rental vehicle, police vehicle, emergency vehicle, or in connection with a sponsored ride-sharing or ride-pooling program.

11.9.Further Prohibitions for Service Loaner Vehicles.

601 MLA (Rev. 7/21) MASTER LOAN AGREEMENT Page 7


1.MULTIPLE BORROWERS

12.1.Additional Borrowers. Each Borrower and each Guarantor unconditionally agree that additional Affiliates of any Borrower may join in this Agreement as additional Borrowers with Lender's consent. These additional Borrowers may express their intent and agreement to be subject to this Agreement by signing this Agreement or an addendum to this Agreement. Such additional Borrowers may be added under this Agreement without the necessity of notice to, and without the necessity of obtaining the further consent of, any other Borrower or Guarantor.

12.2.Borrower Loans and Obligations. Any Borrower may, at any time and from time to time, request and obtain Loans and incur Obligations in favor of Lender, without the necessity of notice to, and without the necessity of obtaining the further consent of, any other Borrower or Guarantor.

12.3.Cross-Guaranties, Cross-Collateralization and Cross-Default. Each Borrower and each Guarantor jointly and severally guarantee on a continuing basis the prompt and punctual payment and satisfaction of all present and future Loans and Obligations of all Borrowers. Each Borrower's Collateral, and each Guarantor's collateral, will secure all present and future Loans and Obligations of all other Borrowers. Each Event of Default by any Borrower will be an Event of Default by all Borrowers. Lender may file suit against, or otherwise seek to collect payment of all Loans and Obligations from, any Borrower or any Guarantor without the necessity of Lender first seeking to collect payment from the borrowing Borrower, or any other Borrower, Guarantor or other party that may be liable for the Loans or Obligations, and without the necessity that Lender first seek to exercise its rights against the Collateral. All guaranties are guaranties of payment, and not of collection.

12.4.Payment Obligations. The liability of each Borrower is direct and unconditional and due immediately upon default of any Borrower without demand or notice, without requiring Lender first to resort to any other right, remedy or security. If and when Lender makes demand, each guaranteeing Borrower agrees to immediately pay Lender all amounts that the guaranteeing Borrower may then owe under its guaranty, including all then outstanding Obligations of all Borrowers.

12.5.Joint and Several Liability. Each Borrower's guarantee obligations, and liability to Lender for the Obligations of all other Borrowers, shall be those of a primary obligated party, rather than those of a surety, and each Borrower is jointly and severally liable to Lender for all Obligations of all other Borrowers.

12.6.Unlimited Continuing Guaranty. Each Borrower's guaranty of all Loans and Obligations of all other Borrowers shall be unlimited, in that there is no maximum limitation on the amount that each Borrower is guaranteeing, and continuous, in that Borrower's guaranty will continue in effect even though all or a part of another Borrower's Obligations may be paid in full, and even though for a period of time no other Borrower may then be obligated to Lender. However, if the laws of the state or jurisdiction in which Borrower resides or has its principal place of business do not recognize unlimited continuing guaranties, Borrower's guaranty is limited to (a) the lesser of $50,000,000.00 or the maximum allowed by applicable state law, or (b) such greater or lesser amount as Borrower and Lender may agree to in a writing.

12.7.Subordination and Subrogation. So long as any Obligation of any Borrower remains outstanding, all rights that Lender may have against any Borrower, and its properties and assets, at all times shall be superior to any rights that any Borrower or Guarantor may have

to receive payment from any other Borrower, other than for bona fide intercompany purchases of goods or services, and for such other purposes as Lender may agree to in its discretion. Each Borrower and each Guarantor shall have no right of subrogation, contribution, reimbursement, indemnity or recourse to the Collateral until all Obligations to Lender are indefeasibly paid in full.

12.8.Each Borrower's and each Guarantor's Duty to Remain Informed. Each Borrower and each Guarantor assume all responsibility for being, and keeping themselves, informed of other Borrowers' and/or other Guarantors' financial condition and assets, and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of non-payment of the Obligations, and the nature, scope and extent of the risks that each Borrower and each Guarantor assume and incur under this Agreement, and agree that Lender does not have any duty, now or in the future, to advise Borrowers or Guarantors of information currently known to Lender or that becomes known to Lender in the future regarding those circumstances or risks.

12.9.Waivers with Respect to Obligations. Borrower and each Guarantor waive presentment for payment, protest and notice of protest and of non-payment, with respect to all Loans and Obligations. Discharge or release of any party or Collateral, or any modification of terms, including the increase or decrease of the Obligations, extension of time for payment, or any delay in enforcing any of Lender's rights and remedies, will not have the effect of releasing Borrower or any Guarantor from any of their respective Obligations, or cause Lender to lose any of its rights or remedies under this Agreement or otherwise. Borrower and each Guarantor additionally waive all defenses that may arise because of any action or inaction on the part of Lender, including any failure or delay of Lender to exercise or enforce any of its rights and remedies.

12.10.Additional California Waivers. To the extent California law applies, each Borrower, in its capacity as guarantor of any other Borrower hereunder, waives any and all rights and defenses that are, or may become, available to any Borrower pursuant to California Civil Code §2787 through §2855, inclusive, and §3433. Borrower also waives 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 a guaranteed obligation, has destroyed Borrower's rights of subrogation and reimbursement against any other Borrower by the operation of Section 580d of the California Code of Civil Procedure or otherwise. Borrower also waives all rights and defenses that Borrower may have because any Borrower's Obligations are secured by real property. This means, among other things: (a) Lender may collect from Borrower, in its capacity as Guarantor of other Borrowers hereunder, without first foreclosing on any real or personal property collateral pledged by any Borrower; and (b) if Lender forecloses on any real property collateral pledged by any Borrower, (i) 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 (ii) Lender may collect from Borrower even if Lender, by foreclosing on the real property collateral, has destroyed any right Borrower may have to collect from any other Borrower. This is an unconditional and irrevocable waiver of any rights and defenses Borrower may have because any other Borrower's Obligations are secured by real property. These waived rights and defenses include, but are not limited to, any rights or defenses based upon Section 580a, 580b, 580d, or 726 of the California Code of Civil Procedure.

Lender may sell all or any part of the Collateral at one or more public or private sales at any time Lender may elect, without the necessity of filing suit against Borrower or against any Guarantor, and without the necessity of additional demand for payment or appraisal. Any requirement of reasonable notice shall be satisfied if Lender mails notice by ordinary mail addressed to the last address of Borrower and Guarantor appearing in Lender's records at least ten days in advance of the time and place of public sale, or the date after which private sale may take place, and the notice sets forth a brief description of the Collateral to be sold, describing the Collateral by type (e.g., Inventory or Equipment). Any public or private sale of Collateral shall be conclusively deemed to be conducted in a commercially reasonable manner if it is made consistent with the standard of similar sales of collateral by other institutions providing inventory financing credit facilities to new motor vehicle dealers. Additionally, sale of the Collateral at a dealer auction, online dealer auction or recognized internet dealer auction shall be deemed to be a private sale, and shall be conclusively deemed to be conducted in a commercially reasonable manner for all purposes. Any private sale of Collateral to the manufacturer, distributor or supplier of such Collateral pursuant to pre-existing agreements or other similar agreements, or statutory requirement, shall be conclusively deemed to be conducted in a commercially reasonable manner for all purposes. Lender has no obligation to recondition or otherwise prepare the Collateral for any sale and may, upon any sale of the Collateral, specifically disclaim any warranties of title or fitness or any similar warranties. Lender may comply with any applicable state or federal law requirements in connection with the Collateral, and the disposition or sale thereof and such compliance will not be considered to adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale of the Collateral.

17.13.Sales on Credit. If Lender sells any of the Collateral on credit, the Loans and Obligations will be credited only with payments actually made by the purchaser of the Collateral that are received by Lender. In the event the purchaser fails to pay for the Collateral, Lender may resell the Collateral, and the proceeds of sale shall be applied to the Loans and Obligations. No portion of the unpaid sales price will be credited against the Loans or the Obligations.

17.14.Strict Foreclosure. Borrower acknowledges and agrees that: (a) some or all of the Collateral may be retained by Lender in either full or partial satisfaction of the Loans and Obligations, as determined by Lender; (b) Borrower will remain liable to Lender for any deficiency amount remaining due pursuant to the Loans and Obligations after the crediting of value received by Lender as a result of the Collateral that was so retained; and (c) repossession of some or all of the

601 MLA (Rev. 7/21) MASTER LOAN AGREEMENT Page 13

Collateral by Lender shall not constitute a retention of the Collateral in either full or partial satisfaction of the Loans and Obligations unless Lender notifies Borrower in writing that Lender is retaining some or all of the Collateral in partial or full satisfaction of the Loans and Obligations.

17.15.Right to Cancel Purchases of Inventory and Equipment; Return of Goods. Lender may require Borrower to, or Lender may in Borrower's stead, notify any manufacturer, distributor, dealer, auction, or other supplier of Borrower's Inventory, Equipment or other goods to cancel any purchase or purchases and, when appropriate and permitted, to return the purchased goods for credit. To the extent that Borrower has previously paid the manufacturer, distributor, dealer, auction, or other supplier for the returned goods, Lender may direct the manufacturer, distributor, dealer, auction or other supplier to make appropriate payment directly to Lender to be applied at Lender's option against Borrower's then-outstanding Obligations, or held as additional cash collateral.

17.16.Right to Use Dealership Premises. In the event Borrower is the owner of the premises upon which Borrower conducts business or stores the Collateral ("Dealership Premises"), Lender may enter into and occupy the Dealership Premises for the purpose of removing the Collateral, storing the Collateral, conducting Sales of the Collateral from the Dealership Premises, and for such other purposes as Lender may determine. Lender shall not be responsible to pay rent, taxes, or other payments with respect to the Dealership Premises when Lender is occupying the Dealership Premises for the purposes set forth above. Lender may, in its discretion, change all locks, otherwise alter security devices, or install or engage security measures relating to access to the Dealership Premises for the purpose of securing the Collateral.

17.17.Application of Proceeds. All proceeds derived from the collection, sale, or other disposition of the Collateral will be applied first to reimbursement of all expenses incurred by Lender in exercising and enforcing its security rights and remedies, including reimbursement of Lender's Legal Costs and lender representative fees and expenses, and then to the payment of Borrower's Loans and Obligations in such order and with such priorities as Lender may determine within its discretion. Borrower shall reimburse Lender for all of its expenses in exercising and enforcing its security rights and remedies under this Agreement and any Related Document (including Lender's Legal Costs and lender representative fees and expenses), which amounts are additional Obligations secured by the Collateral.

17.18.Waiver of Right of Marshaling. Borrower waives any right to require Lender to deal with or dispose of the Collateral in any particular manner or in any particular order, such as the right to require marshaling of assets or other applicable remedies.

17.19.Cumulative Remedies. All of Lender's rights and remedies, whether under this Agreement or under any Related Document, or under applicable law, are cumulative and may be exercised singularly or concurrently. Lender's election to pursue any particular remedy will not preclude Lender from pursuing any other remedy. Lender's election to make expenditure or to take any action to perform an obligation of Borrower, under this Agreement or otherwise, after Borrower's failure to do so, will not affect Lender's right to declare an Event of Default to exist, or otherwise preclude Lender from exercising any of its rights or remedies.

17.20.Electronic Actions. All rights and remedies of Lender under this Agreement may be performed and accomplished electronically to

the extent otherwise permitted by applicable law, including electronic filings, electronic notices, electronic accountings and electronic enforcement, collection, realization and foreclosure activities.

17.21.Louisiana Default Remedies under Chapter 9 of Louisiana Law. This subsection shall apply to any of the Collateral (including any Collateral proceeds) that, at any time, is or may be located in the State of Louisiana, or otherwise be subject to the application of Louisiana law in any respect (the "Louisiana Collateral"). Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, Lender shall have the following rights and remedies with respect to the Louisiana Collateral, which rights and remedies are in addition to, and not in lieu or limitation of, any other rights and remedies that may be available to Lender under this Agreement, under Chapter 9 of the Louisiana Commercial Laws, under the Code in effect in any state other than Louisiana, or at law or equity generally:

17.22.Lender may cause the Louisiana Collateral, or any part or parts thereof, to be immediately seized wherever found, and sold, under ordinary or executory process, in accordance with applicable Louisiana law, to the highest bidder for cash, with or without appraisement, without the necessity of making additional demand, or notifying Borrower, or placing Borrower in default.

17.23.For purposes of foreclosure under Louisiana executory process procedures, Borrower confesses judgment and acknowledges to be indebted unto and in favor of Lender up to the full amount of Borrower's secured Obligations, in principle, interest, costs, expenses, attorneys' fees, and other fees and charges. To the extent permitted under applicable Louisiana law, Borrower additionally waives: (a) the benefit of appraisal as provided in Articles 2332, 2336, 2723 and 2724 of the Louisiana Code of Civil Procedure and all other laws with regard to appraisal upon judicial sale; (b) any right to receive demand for payment from the court prior to the court issuing a writ of seizure and sale; (c) the notice of seizure as provided under Articles 2293 and 2721 of the Louisiana Code of Civil Procedure; (d) the three days' delay provided under Articles 2331 and 2722 of the Louisiana Code of Civil Procedure; and (e) all other benefits provided under Articles 2331, 2722 and 2723 of the Louisiana Code of Civil Procedure and all other Articles not specifically mentioned above.

17.24.Should any of the Louisiana Collateral be seized as an incident to an action for the recognition and enforcement of this Agreement, by executory process, sequestration, attachment, writ of fieri facias or otherwise, Borrower agrees that the court issuing any such order shall, if requested by Lender, appoint Lender or any person or entity named by Lender at the time such seizure is requested, or at any time thereafter, as keeper of the Louisiana Collateral as provided under La. R.S. §9:5136, et seq. Borrower agrees to pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such keeper, which compensation to the keeper shall also be a part of the secured Obligations under this Agreement.

17.25.Should it become necessary for Lender to foreclose against the Louisiana Collateral, all declarations of fact that are made under an authentic act before a Notary Public in the presence of two witnesses, by a person declaring such facts to lie within his or her knowledge, shall constitute authentic evidence for purposes of executory process and also for purposes of La. R.S. §9:3509.1, La. R.S. §9:3504(D)(6), and La. R.S. §10:9-629, as applicable.


1.TERMINATION OF ADDITIONAL BORROWINGS

18.1.Termination by Borrower. Borrower may, at any time and for any or no reason, advise Lender in writing that Borrower will no longer request that Lender make additional Advances and Loans under this Agreement. If there is more than one Borrower, that Borrower may terminate future borrowings only with respect to itself, and not with respect to additional Borrowers subject to this Agreement. Except as otherwise provided herein, at the time of sending this notice, Borrower shall immediately pay to Lender all Loans and Obligations then outstanding.

18.2.Termination by Lender. Lender may, at any time (whether or not an Event of Default then exists), and for any or no reason, with or without cause, terminate the ability of Borrower (or any Borrower) to request and obtain additional Advances and Loans, under this Agreement or otherwise. Should Lender terminate future

borrowings under this Agreement, Lender may demand payment of all then outstanding Loans and Obligations. If Borrower is not in default hereunder, Borrower shall make payment within sixty days of demand by Lender. If Borrower is in default hereunder, Borrower shall make payment immediately upon demand.

18.3.Cancellation of Lender's Security Rights and Interest. Lender will have no obligation whatsoever to cancel or otherwise terminate its continuing security rights and interest under this Agreement, or the continuing obligations of each Guarantor under their respective guaranties, unless and until Lender is completely satisfied that all Loans and Obligations (including possible contingent Obligations) have been fully paid and satisfied. Only then may Lender agree to cancel and release its security interest from the public records, and to release each Guarantor from its obligations.

601 MLA (Rev. 7/21) MASTER LOAN AGREEMENT Page 14


1.PROTECTIONS AND RIGHTS OF LENDER

19.1.Additional Protective Advances. Lender may, at its discretion, without any obligation to do so, and without the consent of Borrower, take whatever actions on Borrower's behalf as Lender may deem necessary and proper to permit Lender to obtain full recovery and payment of all Obligations and to protect the Collateral. Specifically, but without limitation, Lender may: (a) purchase and maintain insurance on the Collateral and Borrower's other properties, assets, and business operations; (b) pay taxes and governmental assessments on Borrower's behalf; and (c) compromise or otherwise satisfy any claim that a third party may assert against the Collateral, or against Borrower or its property (including the payment of liens or claims against any Collateral). The payment of any of the foregoing, together with the costs and expenses (including Legal Costs and lender representative fees and expenses) incurred in connection with the matter for which the payment is made by Lender, shall be considered to be an Advance. All such Advances, together with interest at the rate or rates then applicable to Borrower's Loans, will be considered as an additional Obligation secured by the Collateral. Lender's judgment in making any Advance provided for in this section shall be conclusive and binding on Borrower.

19.2.Indemnification of Lender. Borrower shall indemnify, defend and save, and hold Lender, its subsidiaries, and their officers, directors, members, employees, agents, representatives, and attorneys, harmless from any and all claims, demands, actions, causes of action, lawsuits, obligations, damages, losses, Legal Costs, liabilities,

penalties, fines and forfeitures, arising out of or in any way occasioned by this Agreement, any Loan or Obligation, or other relationship between the parties, including (a) Borrower's failure to promptly and properly take any act or report any event or fact to Lender as may be required under this Agreement, and (b) bodily injury, death or property damage caused by or arising from the ownership, maintenance, use or operation of any Service Loaner Vehicle and Demonstrator Vehicle. Any defense provided pursuant to this Agreement shall be with counsel selected by Lender. This indemnification shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

19.3.Use of Tracking Devices. Borrower consents to Lender's use of any tracking device in or on any item of Inventory or Equipment.

19.4.Delivery of Vehicle Certificates of Origin and Titles. Lender may, at any time, for any or no reason, with or without cause, require Borrower to deliver to Lender, or to Lender's designee, the certificate of origin or manufacturer statement of origin with respect to each new vehicle, and the original certificate of title or registration with respect to each used, Special Use Vehicle, lease or rental vehicle, comprising part of Borrower's Inventory subject to this Agreement. Lender may retain physical possession of the certificates until such time as the particular vehicle is sold in the Ordinary Course of Business, and Borrower pays over the Collateral proceeds to Lender.


1.POWER OF ATTORNEY

Borrower irrevocably appoints Lender, acting through any of its officers or employees, as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact, coupled with an interest, and with full power of substitution, to perform the following actions in Borrower's name, place and stead as if fully done by Borrower:

20.1.At any time: (a) notify manufacturers, distributors, dealers, auctions and other suppliers of Borrower's Inventory and Equipment that they are authorized to accept payment from Lender for Inventory and Equipment that Lender may finance pursuant to this Agreement; and (b) perform such acts as may be required of Borrower under this Agreement or under any Related Document, but which Borrower may not fully, or may refuse to, perform for any or no reason, or that Borrower may delay in performing.

20.2.If an Event of Default exists: (a) demand, collect, receive, receipt for, sue and recover all sums of money or other property which may now and in the future become due, owing or payable from the Collateral; (b) settle or compromise any and all claims arising under the Collateral, and execute and deliver a release and settlement for the claim; and (c) file any insurance or other claim or take any action or institute or take part in any proceeding, either in Lender's own name or in Borrower's name.

20.3.If an Event of Default exists or the applicable document or instrument to be signed has first been presented to Borrower for execution: (a) sign Borrower's name on any and all agreements or documents that are necessary and proper to carry out and enforce Lender's security rights and interests; (b) sign Borrower's name on any motor vehicle bill of sale, or certificate of title or registration, or application or form

submitted to a public agency; (c) execute, sign and endorse Borrower's name to any and all claims, insurance claims, instruments, receipts, checks, drafts or warrants; (d) sign Borrower's name to any subordination of landlord's lien, and notify and obtain waivers of any landlord's lien with respect to any facility leased or rented by Borrower, or in or at which any of the Collateral may be kept or stored; (e) sign Borrower's name to any deposit account control agreement or other control agreement, and notify Borrower's depository bank or other third party to such agreement; and (f) sign Borrower's name to any notice of assignment of factory credits and other payments, and notify the manufacturers, distributors, and suppliers of Borrower's Inventory, Equipment and other Collateral.

20.4.Lender may take any and all of the above actions as Lender may deem to be necessary and proper within Lender's discretion, and without any obligation to do so. This power of attorney is given as security for Borrower's Loans and Obligations, and the authority conferred on Lender is irrevocable and will remain in full force and effect until renounced by Lender in writing or upon payment in full of all of Borrower's Loans and Obligations, at which time it shall terminate. Borrower shall execute Lender's Special Power of Attorney form, or other similar form satisfactory to Lender, in its discretion.

Lender has the right, but not the obligation, to notify Guarantors, sureties, manufacturers, distributors, suppliers, and other third parties of the provisions of this Agreement and Borrower's performance, or failure to perform, pursuant to this Agreement.

21.12.Applicable Law.

21.16.Severability. If a court finds any provision of this Agreement, or any Related Document, to be invalid or unenforceable, the offending provision will be deemed to be modified to be within the limits of enforceability or validity. However, if this cannot be done, the offending provision will be deemed to be stricken and all other provisions of this Agreement will remain valid, enforceable and in effect.

21.17.Joint and Several Liability; Binding Effect and Assignment. Borrower and each Guarantor are obligated under this Agreement and under each Related Document on a joint and several basis. Each and every covenant and obligation of this Agreement and all Related Documents shall be binding upon Borrower and on each Guarantor, and shall be further binding on each of their successors, heirs, representatives and assigns. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower may not assign its rights or obligations hereunder without Lender's prior written consent. Lender may assign its rights hereunder with or without notice to Borrower.

21.18.Unconditional and Irrevocable Nature of Agreements and Consents. Borrower's and each Guarantor's covenants, agreements and consents under this Agreement and under each Related Document are unconditional and irrevocable, and may not be withdrawn or otherwise revoked by Borrower or by any Guarantor under any circumstance, other than as a result of Lender's prior written consent, which Lender has the right to reject or withhold for any or no reason.

21.19.Sole Discretion of Lender. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, whenever Lender's agreement, consent or approval is required under this Agreement or under any Related Document, Lender's decision whether to agree, consent or approve will be in the sole, exclusive and subjective business discretion of Lender, and Lender's decision will be final and conclusive.

21.20.No Waiver of Rights. Lender will not be deemed to waive any right or remedy under this Agreement or under any Related Document unless the waiver is in writing and signed by Lender. No delay or omission on the part of Lender in exercising any right or remedy may be construed by Borrower, or by Borrower's owners, principals or management officials, or by any Guarantor, or by any court of law or in arbitration, as a waiver or forbearance of any such right or remedy or of any other right or remedy that may be available to Lender. Lender's written waiver of a provision of this Agreement or any Related Document will not prejudice, and may not in any way be construed as a waiver of, Lender's right otherwise to demand strict compliance with that provision or any other provision of this Agreement or any Related Document. No course of dealing between Lender and Borrower, or between Lender and any Guarantor, may be construed as a waiver of any of Lender's rights or remedies, or of any obligation of Borrower or any Guarantor.

21.21.Damages Waiver and Limitation. Borrower waives, to the maximum extent permitted by law, any right Borrower may have to claim or recover from Lender any indirect, consequential, exemplary or punitive damages arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or any Related Document, or the subject matter of this Agreement or any Related Document, the Loans or Obligations, or any other relationship between Borrower and Lender. Additionally, Borrower's damages, if any, are expressly limited to the actual dollar amount of Borrower's economic or financial loss, and any claim by Borrower for loss of future profits shall be limited to not more than twelve (12) months from accrual of the claim for such future profits, and shall, in no event, total an amount, directly, indirectly, or by way of offset or otherwise, in excess of the total interest actually paid by Borrower to Lender in the twelve (12) months immediately preceding accrual of such claim for loss of future profits.

601 MLA (Rev. 7/21) MASTER LOAN AGREEMENT Page 16

21.22.Consent to Jurisdiction and Venue. In the event Borrower should ever file a lawsuit or assert a claim or counter-claim against Lender in any way related to this Agreement, any Related Document, or any other instrument or document executed in connection with any Obligation, Borrower unconditionally agrees to assert such a claim in the form of a lawsuit or an arbitration commenced only in a federal court located in the Northern District of Texas or a state court in Tarrant County, Texas, and Borrower waives any objection based on forum non conveniens and any objection to venue in connection with any such action or proceeding. Should Lender ever file a lawsuit or assert a claim or counter-claim against Borrower in any way related to this Agreement, any Related Document, or any other instrument or document executed in connection with any Obligation, Borrower agrees that Lender may, in Lender's discretion, do so before the state or federal courts located in the state or county where Borrower resides, where Borrower has its principal place of business, or where Lender's business offices which are most directly involved in the administration of this Agreement are located.

21.23.Jury Waiver and Arbitration. Borrower hereby voluntarily, knowingly, irrevocably and unconditionally waives any right to jury trial in connection with any dispute (whether based upon contract, tort, or otherwise) between Lender and Borrower arising out of or in any way related to this Agreement, any Related Document or any relationship between Lender and Borrower. Borrower and Lender acknowledge that this waiver of jury trial is an essential, bargained for covenant. If, for whatever reason, Lender and Borrower cannot effect a waiver of jury trial, then the parties agree to arbitrate such claim, dispute or lawsuit if Lender, in its discretion, shall elect to arbitrate (without thereby being deemed to have made an "election of remedies"), and the lawsuit may proceed as to only the enforcement of provisional remedies and those disputes or issues which Lender elects not to arbitrate. Any arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association and judgment on any award rendered by the Arbitrator may be entered in any Court having jurisdiction.
