(a) Lender may, (i) at any time in Lender’s own name or in the name of each Corporate Credit Party, communicate with Account Debtors, parties to Contracts, and obligors in respect of Instruments, Chattel Paper or other Collateral to verify to Lender’s satisfaction, the existence, amount and terms of any such Accounts, Contracts, Instruments or Chattel Paper or other Collateral, and (ii) at any time and without prior notice to any Corporate Credit Party notify Account Debtors, parties to Contracts, and obligors in respect of Chattel Paper, Instruments, or other Collateral that the Collateral has been assigned to Lender and that payments shall be made directly to Lender. Upon the request of Lender, each Corporate Credit Party shall so notify such Account Debtors, parties to Contracts, and obligors in respect of Instruments, Chattel Paper or other Collateral. Each Corporate Credit Party hereby constitutes Lender or Lender’s designee such Corporate Credit Party’s attorney with power to endorse such Corporate Credit Party’s name upon any notes, acceptance drafts, money orders or other evidences of payment or Collateral.

(b) Each Corporate Credit Party shall remain liable under each Contract, Instrument and License to observe and perform all the conditions and obligations to be observed and performed by it thereunder, and Lender shall have no obligation or liability whatsoever to any Person under any Contract, Instrument or License (between any Borrower and any Person other than Lender) by reason of or arising out of the execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement, and Lender shall not be required or obligated in any manner (i) to perform or fulfill any of the obligations of Borrower, (ii) to make any payment or inquiry, or (iii) to take any action of any kind to collect, compromise or enforce any performance or the payment of any amounts which may have been assigned to it or to which it may be entitled at any time or times under or pursuant to any Contract, Instrument or License.

(c) Each Credit Party shall, with respect to each owned, leased, or controlled property (including public warehouses), during normal business hours and upon reasonable advance notice (unless a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, in which event no notice shall be required and Lender shall have access at any and all times): (i) provide access to such property to Lender and any of its officers, employees and agents, as frequently as Lender determines to be appropriate; (ii) permit Lender and any of its officers, employees and agents to inspect, audit and make extracts and copies (or take originals if reasonably necessary) from all of such Credit Party’s Books and Records; and (iii) permit Lender to inspect, review, evaluate and make physical verifications and appraisals of the Inventory and other Collateral in any manner and through any medium that Lender considers advisable, and each Credit Party agrees to render to Lender, at Borrowers’ cost and expense, such clerical and other assistance as may be reasonably requested with regard thereto.

(d) After the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default or Event of Default, each Corporate Credit Party at its own expense, shall cause the certified public accountant then engaged by any Borrower to prepare and deliver to Lender at any time and from time to time, promptly upon Lender’s request, the following reports: (i) a reconciliation of all Accounts; (ii) an aging of all Accounts; (iii) trial balances; and (iv) test verifications of such Accounts as Lender may request. Each Corporate Credit Party at its own expense, shall cause its certified independent public accountants to deliver to Lender the results of any physical verifications of all or any portion of the Inventory made or observed by such accountants when and if such verification is conducted. Lender shall be permitted to observe and consult with such Corporate Credit Party’s accountants in the performance of these tasks.

10.3 Lender’s Appointment as Attorney-in-Fact. On the Closing Date, each Corporate Credit Party shall execute and deliver a Power of Attorney in the form attached asExhibit E. The power of attorney granted pursuant to the Power of Attorney and all powers granted under any Credit Document are powers coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable until the Termination Date. The powers conferred on Lender under the Power of Attorney are solely to protect Lender’s interests in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon it to exercise any such powers. Lender agrees, except for the powers granted in clause (h) of the Power of Attorney, not to exercise any power or authority granted under the Power of Attorney unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. Each Corporate Credit Party authorizes Lender to file any financing or continuation statement without the signature of Borrowers to the extent permitted by applicable law. NONE OF LENDER OR ITS AFFILIATES, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS OR REPRESENTATIVES SHALL BE RESPONSIBLE TO ANY GRANTOR FOR ANY ACT OR FAILURE TO ACT UNDER ANY POWER OF ATTORNEY OR OTHERWISE, EXCEPT IN RESPECT OF DAMAGES ATTRIBUTABLE SOLELY TO THEIR OWN GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT AS FINALLY DETERMINED BY A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION, NOR FOR ANY PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY, INDIRECT OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES.

10.4 Grant of License to Use Intellectual Property Collateral. Each Corporate Credit Party hereby grants to Lender an irrevocable, non-exclusive license (exercisable upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default) without payment of royalty or other compensation to any Corporate Credit Party to use, transfer, license or sublicense any Intellectual Property now owned, licensed to, or hereafter acquired by any Corporate Credit Party, and wherever the same may be located, and including in such license access to all media in which any of the licensed items may be recorded or stored and to all computer software and programs used for the compilation or printout thereof, and represents, promises and agrees that any such license or sublicense is not and will not be in conflict with the contractual or commercial rights of any third Person; provided, that such license will terminate on the Termination Date.

10.5 Terminations; Amendments Not Authorized. Each Corporate Credit Party executing this Agreement acknowledges that it is not authorized to file any financing statement or amendment or termination statement with respect to any financing statement without the prior written consent of Lender and agrees that it will not do so without the prior written consent of Lender, subject to Borrower’s rights under Section 9-509(d)(2) of the UCC.

10.6 Inspections. At all times during normal business hours and absent the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default upon reasonable notice to Borrowing Representative, Lender shall have the right to (a) have access to, visit, inspect, review, evaluate and make physical verification and appraisals of each Borrower’s properties and the Collateral, (b) inspect, examine and copy (or take originals if necessary) and make extracts from such Borrower’s Books and Records, including management letters prepared by independent accountants, and (c) discuss with each Borrower’s principal officers, and independent accountants, each Borrower’s business, assets, liabilities, financial condition, results of operations and business prospects. Each Borrower will deliver to Lender any instrument necessary for Lender to obtain records from any service bureau maintaining records for such Borrower.

XI. TERM

11.1 Term of Agreement. Any obligation of Lender to make Loans and extend their financial accommodations under this Agreement or any Credit Document shall continue in full force and effect until the expiration of the Term. The termination of the Agreement shall not affect any of Lender’s rights hereunder or any Credit Document and the provisions hereof and thereof shall continue to be fully operative until all transactions entered into, rights or interests created and the Obligations have been disposed of, concluded or liquidated. The Maturity Date shall be automatically extended for successive periods of one (1) year each unless (a) Borrowing Representative shall have provided Lender with a written notice of termination, at least sixty (60) days prior to the expiration of the Maturity Date or any renewal of the Maturity Date or (b) Lender provides written notice of termination to Borrowing Representative at least sixty (60) days prior to the expiration of the Maturity Date or any renewal of the Maturity Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lender shall release its security interests at any time after thirty (30) days notice upon payment to it of all Obligations if each Credit Party shall have (i) provided Lender with an executed release of any and all claims which Credit Parties may have or thereafter have under this Agreement and/or any Credit Document and (ii) paid to Lender an early payment fee in an amount equal to (A) the monthly interest on the Minimum Average Monthly Loan Amount calculated based on the interest rate in effect on the date of such payment multiplied by (B) the difference between (I) the number of full months from the Closing Date until the Maturity Date and (II) the number of full months which have elapsed from the Closing Date until the payment of the fee hereunder. Such early payment fee shall also be due and payable to Lender upon termination of this Agreement by Lender after the occurrence of an Event of Default.

11.2 Termination of Lien. The Liens and rights granted to Lender hereunder and any Credit Documents and the financing statements filed in connection herewith or therewith shall continue in full force and effect, notwithstanding the termination of this Agreement or the fact that Borrowers’ account may from time to time be temporarily in a zero or credit position, until (a) all of the Obligations have been paid or performed in full after the termination of this Agreement or each Credit Party has furnished Lender with an indemnification satisfactory to Lender with respect thereto and (b) each Credit Party has an executed release of any and all claims which such Credit Party may have or thereafter have under this Agreement or any other Credit Document. Accordingly, each Credit Party waives any rights which it may have under the UCC to demand the filing of termination statements with respect to the Collateral, and Lender shall not be required to send such termination statements to any Credit Party, or to file them with any filing office, unless and until this Agreement and the Credit Documents shall have been terminated in accordance with their terms and all Obligations paid in full in immediately available funds.

(f) any Credit Party shall (i) fail to pay any principal or interest, regardless of amount, due in respect of Indebtedness when and as the same shall become due and payable or (ii) fail to observe or perform any other term, covenant, condition or agreement contained in any agreements or instruments evidencing or governing any Indebtedness if the effect of any failure referred to in this clause (ii) is to cause, or to permit the holder or holders of such indebtedness or a trustee on its or their behalf to cause, such indebtedness to become due prior to its stated maturity; or

(g) Brian Kelly shall no longer be employed by Borrower as General Manager.

(h) the occurrence of a Change of Control; or

(j) any other event shall have occurred which has had or could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; or

(k) an ERISA Event shall have occurred that, in the opinion of the Lender, when taken together with all other ERISA Events that have occurred and are then continuing, could reasonably be expected to result in liability of any Credit Party in an aggregate amount exceeding the Minimum Actionable Amount; the indictment or threatened indictment of Any Credit Party, any officer of Any Credit Party or any Guarantor under any criminal statute, or commencement or threatened commencement of criminal or civil proceeding against Any Credit Party, any officer of Any Credit Party or any Guarantor pursuant to which statute or proceeding penalties or remedies sought or available include forfeiture of any of the property of Any Credit Party; or

(l) any Credit Party shall take or participate in any action which would be prohibited under the provisions of any Subordination Agreement or Intercreditor Agreement or make any payment on the Subordinated Debt that any Person was not entitled to receive under the provisions of the applicable Subordination Agreement or Intercreditor Agreement;

then, and in any such event and at any time thereafter, if such or any other Event of Default shall then be continuing, Lender in its sole discretion may declare any or all of the Obligations to be due and payable, and the same shall immediately become due and payable without presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived;provided,however, that if there shall occur an Event of Default under paragraph (f) above, then any and all of the Obligations shall be immediately due and payable without any necessary action or notice by Lender.

12.2 Lender Remedies.

(a) In addition to the rights and remedies set forth inSection 12.1, if any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Lender may, without notice, take any one or more of the following actions: (i) require that all Letter of Credit Obligations be fully cash collateralized pursuant toSchedule I; or (ii) exercise any rights and remedies provided to Lender under the Credit Documents or at law or equity, including all remedies provided under the UCC.

(b) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Credit Party expressly agrees that upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, Lender may take any action necessary to collect, receive, assemble, process, appropriate and realize upon the Collateral, or any part thereof, or appoint a third party to do so and may forthwith sell, lease, assign, give an option or options to purchase or otherwise dispose of and deliver said Collateral (or contract to do so), or any part thereof, in one or more parcels at public or private sale or sales, at any exchange at such prices as it may deem best, for cash or on credit or for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk. Lender shall have the right upon any such public sale, to the extent permitted by law, to purchase for the benefit of Lender the whole or any part of said Collateral so sold, free of any right of equity of redemption, which right each Credit Party hereby releases. Such sales may be adjourned or continued from time to time with or without notice. Lender shall have the right to conduct such sales on any Corporate Credit Party’s premises or elsewhere and shall have the right to use any Corporate Credit Party’s premises without rent or other charge for such sales or other action with respect to the Collateral for such time as Lender deems necessary or advisable.

(c) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default and at Lender’s request, each Credit Party further agrees to assemble the Collateral and make it available to Lender at places which Lender shall reasonably select, whether at its premises or elsewhere. Until Lender is able to effect a sale, lease, or other disposition of the Collateral, Lender shall have the right to complete, assemble, use or operate the Collateral or any part thereof, to the extent that Lender deems appropriate, for the purpose of preserving such Collateral or its value or for any other purpose. Lender shall have no obligation to any Credit Party to maintain or preserve the rights of any Credit Party as against third parties with respect to any Collateral while such Collateral is in the possession of Lender. Lender may, if it so elects, seek the appointment of a receiver or keeper to take possession of any Collateral and to enforce any of Lender’s remedies with respect thereto without prior notice or hearing. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, each Credit Party waives all claims, damages, and demands against Lender, its Affiliates, agents, and the officers and employees of any of them arising out of the repossession, retention or sale of any Collateral except such as are determined in a final judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have arisen solely out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Person. Each Credit Party agrees that ten (10) days prior notice by Lender to each Credit Party of the time and place of any public sale or of the time after which a private sale may take place is reasonable notification of such matters. Each Credit Party shall remain liable for any deficiency if the proceeds of any sale or disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to pay all amounts to which Lender is entitled.

(d) Lender’s rights and remedies under this Agreement shall be cumulative and nonexclusive of any other rights and remedies which Lender may have under any other Credit Document or at law or in equity. Recourse to the Collateral shall not be required. All provisions of this Agreement are intended to be subject to all applicable mandatory provisions of law that may be controlling and to be limited, to the extent necessary, so that they do not render this Agreement invalid or unenforceable, in whole or in part.

12.3 Waivers. Except as otherwise provided for in this Agreement and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Credit Party waives: (a) presentment, demand and protest, and notice of presentment, dishonor, intent to accelerate, acceleration, protest, default, nonpayment, maturity, release, compromise, settlement, extension or renewal of any or all Credit Documents, the Notes or any other notes, commercial paper, Accounts, Contracts, Documents, Instruments, Chattel Paper and guaranties at any time held by Lender on which any Credit Party may in any way be liable, and hereby ratifies and confirms whatever Lender may do in this regard; (b) 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, any Collateral or any bond or security which might be required by any court prior to allowing Lender to exercise any of its remedies; and (c) the benefit of all valuation, appraisal and exemption laws. Each Credit Party acknowledges that it has been advised by counsel of its choices and decisions with respect to this Agreement, the other Credit Documents and the transactions evidenced hereby and thereby.

12.4 Proceeds. The Proceeds of any sale, disposition or other realization upon any Collateral shall be applied by Lender upon receipt to the Obligations in such order as Lender may deem advisable in its sole discretion (including the cash collateralization of any Letter of Credit Obligations), and after the indefeasible payment and satisfaction in full in cash of all of the Obligations, and after the payment by Lender of any other amount required by any provision of law, including the UCC (but only after Lender has received what Lender considers reasonable proof of a subordinate party’s security interest), the surplus, if any, shall be paid to Borrowers or their representatives or to whomsoever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same, or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct.

XIII. MISCELLANEOUS

13.1 No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure to exercise and no delay in exercising, on the part of Lender, any right, remedy, power or privilege under this Agreement or any other Credit Documents shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder or thereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. No notice to or demand on any Credit Party in any case shall, of itself, entitle it to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by law.

13.2 Amendments and Waivers. No amendment, modification or waiver of or with respect to any provision of this Agreement or any other Credit Document shall in any event be effective unless it shall be in writing and signed by Lender, and then such amendment, modification, waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given.

13.3 Expenses; Indemnity.

(a) Each Credit Party agrees to, jointly and severally, pay or reimburse Lender for all costs and expenses (including, without limitation, the fees and expenses of all counsel, advisors, consultants and auditors) incurred by Lender in connection with: (i) the preparation, negotiation, execution, delivery, performance and enforcement of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated shall be consummated); (ii) the enforcement or protection of Lender’s rights in connection with this Agreement and the other Credit Documents or in connection with the Loans; (iii) any advice in connection with the administration of the Loans or the rights under this Agreement or the other Credit Documents; (iv) any litigation, dispute, suit, proceeding or action (whether instituted by or between any combination of Lender, any Credit Party or any other Person), and an appeal or review thereof, in any way relating to the Collateral, this Agreement, any other Credit Document, or any action taken or any other agreements to be executed or delivered in connection therewith, whether as a party, witness or otherwise; and (v) any effort (x) to monitor the Loans, (y) to evaluate, observe or assess any Borrower or any other Credit Party or the affairs of such Person, and (z) to verify, protect, evaluate, assess, appraise, collect, sell, liquidate or otherwise dispose of the Collateral. In addition to the foregoing, each Credit Party agrees to pay Lender a fee of $1,000 for each amendment, modification, supplement or restatement of any Credit Document entered into by Lender and any Borrower. Each Corporate Credit Party further agrees, jointly and severally, to indemnify Lender from and agrees to hold it harmless against any documentary taxes, assessments or charges made by any governmental authority by reason of the execution and delivery of this Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents.

(b) Each Corporate Credit Party agrees to, jointly and severally, indemnify Lender, the LC Issuers, their correspondents and each of their respective directors, shareholders, officers, employees and agents (each, an “Indemnified Person”) against, and agrees to hold each Indemnified Person harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including reasonable counsel fees, charges and disbursements, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnified Person arising out of, in any way connected with or as a result of (i) the use of any of the proceeds of any Loan or the use of any Loan, (ii) the goods or transactions financed by the Loans, (iii) this Agreement, any other Credit Document or any other document contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto or thereto of their respective obligations hereunder and thereunder or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, or (iv) any claim, litigation, investigation or proceedings relating to any of the foregoing, whether or not any Indemnified Person Indemnity is a party thereto;provided,however, that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnified Person, apply to any such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses to the extent that they result from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Lender.

(c) The provisions of thisSection 13.3 shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of the expiration of the term of this Agreement and the repayment of the Loans. All amounts due under this Section 13.3 shall be payable on written demand therefor.

13.4 Borrowing Agency Provisions. If and to the extent that at any time or from time to time there are multiple Borrowers, then.

(a) Each Borrower acknowledges that, together with each other Borrower, it is part of an affiliated common enterprise in which any loans or other financial accommodations extended to any one Borrower will result in direct and substantial economic benefit to each other Borrower, and each Borrower will likewise benefit from the economies of scale associated with the Borrowers, as a group, applying for credit or other financial accommodations on a collective basis.

(b) Each Borrower hereby irrevocably designates Borrowing Representative to be its attorney and agent and in such capacity to borrow, sign and endorse notes, and execute and deliver all instruments, documents, writings and further assurances now or hereafter required hereunder, on behalf of such Borrower or Borrowers, and hereby authorizes Lender to pay over or credit all loan proceeds hereunder in accordance with the request of Borrowing Representative.

(c) The handling of this credit facility as a co-borrowing facility with a Borrowing Representative in the manner set forth in this Agreement is solely as an accommodation to Borrowers and at their request. Lender shall not incur liability to Borrowers as a result thereof. To induce Lender to do so and in consideration thereof, each Borrower, jointly and severally, hereby indemnifies Lender and holds Lender harmless from and against any and all liabilities, expenses, losses, damages and claims of damage or injury asserted against Lender or any issuer by any Person arising from or incurred by reason of the handling of the financing arrangements of Borrowers as provided herein, reliance by Lender on any request or instruction from Borrowing Representative or any other action taken by Lender with respect to this Section except due to willful misconduct or gross negligence by the indemnified party.

(d) All Obligations shall be joint and several, and each Borrower shall make payment upon the maturity of the Obligations by acceleration or otherwise, and such obligation and liability on the part of each Borrower shall in no way be affected by any extensions, renewals and forbearance granted by Lender to any Borrower, failure of Lender to give any Borrower notice of borrowing or any other notice, any failure of Lender to pursue or preserve its rights against any Borrower, the release by Lender of any Collateral now or thereafter acquired from any Borrower, and such agreement by each Borrower to pay upon any notice issued pursuant thereto is unconditional and unaffected by prior recourse by Lender to the other Borrowers or any Collateral for such Borrower’s Obligations or the lack thereof.

13.5 Guaranty. Each Corporate Credit Party hereby absolutely and unconditionally guarantees to Lender and its successors and assigns the full and prompt payment (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) and performance of all Obligations owed or hereafter owing to Lender by each Corporate Credit Party. Each Corporate Credit Party agrees that its guaranty obligation hereunder is a continuing guaranty of payment and performance and not of collection, and that its obligations shall be absolute and unconditional, irrespective of, and unaffected by:

(a) the genuineness, validity, regularity, enforceability or any future amendment of, or change in, this Agreement, any other Credit Documents;

(b) the absence of any action to enforce this Agreement (including thisSection 13.5) or any other Credit Document or the waiver or consent by Lender with respect to any of the provisions hereof or thereof;

(c) the existence, value or condition of, or failure to perfect its Lien against, any security for the Obligations or any action, or the absence of any action, by Lender in respect thereof (including the release of any such security);

(d) the insolvency of any Credit Party; or

(e) any other action or circumstances that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety or guarantor,

it being agreed by each Credit Party that its obligations shall not be discharged until the payment and performance, in full, of the Obligations has occurred. Each Credit Party shall be regarded, and shall be in the same position, as principal debtor with respect to the Obligations guaranteed hereunder.

13.6 Waivers. Each Corporate Credit Party expressly waives all rights it may have now or in the future under any statute, or at common law, or at law or in equity, or otherwise, to compel Lender to marshal assets or to proceed in respect of the Obligations guaranteed hereunder against any other Corporate Credit Party, any other party or against any security for the payment and performance of the Obligations before proceeding against, or as a condition to proceeding against, such Credit Party. It is agreed among each Credit Party and Lender that the foregoing waivers are of the essence of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Credit Documents and that, but for the provisions of thisSection 13.6 and such waivers, Lender would decline to enter into this Agreement.

13.7 Benefit of Guaranty. Each Credit Party agrees that the provisions ofSection 13.5 are for the benefit of Lender and its successors, transferees, endorsees and assigns, and nothing herein contained shall impair, as between any other Credit Party and Lender, the obligations of such other Credit Party under this Agreement or the other Credit Documents.

13.8 Subordination of Subrogation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or in any other Credit Documents, each Credit Party hereby expressly and irrevocably subordinates to payment of the Obligations any and all rights at law or in equity to subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution, indemnification or set off and any and all defenses available to a surety, guarantor or accommodation co-obligor until the Obligations are indefeasibly paid in full in cash. Each Credit Party acknowledges and agrees that this waiver is intended to benefit Lender and shall not limit or otherwise affect such Credit Party’s liability hereunder or the enforceability ofSection 13.5.

13.9 Election of Remedies. If Lender may, under applicable law, proceed to realize its benefits under this Agreement or any other Credit Document giving Lender a Lien upon any Collateral, whether owned by any Borrower or by any other Person, either by judicial foreclosure or by non-judicial sale or enforcement, Lender may, at its sole option, determine which of its remedies or rights it may pursue without affecting any of its rights and remedies underSection 13.5. If, in the exercise of any of its rights and remedies, Lender shall forfeit any of its rights or remedies, including its right to enter a deficiency judgment against any Credit Party or any other Person, whether because of any applicable laws pertaining to “election of remedies” or the like, each Credit Party hereby consents to such action by Lender and waives any claim based upon such action, even if such action by Lender shall result in a full or partial loss of any rights of subrogation which such Credit Party might otherwise have had but for such action by Lender. Any election of remedies that results in the denial or impairment of the right of Lender to seek a deficiency judgment against any Credit Party shall not impair any other Credit Party’s obligation to pay the full amount of the Obligations. In the event Lender shall bid at any foreclosure or trustee’s sale or at any private sale permitted by law, this Agreement or any other Credit Document, Lender may bid all or less than the amount of the Obligations and the amount of such bid need not be paid by Lender but may be credited against the Obligations. The amount of the successful bid at any such sale, whether Lender or any other party is the successful bidder, shall be conclusively deemed to be the fair market value of the Collateral and the difference between such bid amount and the remaining balance of the Obligations shall be conclusively deemed to be the amount of the Obligations guaranteed underSection 13.5 notwithstanding that any present or future law or court decision or ruling may have the effect of reducing the amount of any deficiency claim to which Lender might otherwise be entitled but for such bidding at any such sale.

13.10 Liability Cumulative. The liability of Credit Parties underSection 13.5 is in addition to and shall be cumulative with all liabilities of each Credit Party to Lender under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents or in respect of any Obligations or obligation of the other Credit Parties, without any limitation as to amount, unless the instrument or agreement evidencing or creating such other liability specifically provides to the contrary.

13.11 Waiver of Subrogation. Each Borrower expressly waives any and all rights of subrogation, reimbursement, indemnity, exoneration, contribution of any other claim which such Borrower may now or hereafter have against the other Borrowers or other Person directly or contingently liable for the Obligations hereunder, or against or with respect to the other Borrowers’ property (including, without limitation, any property which is Collateral for the Obligations), arising from the existence or performance of this Agreement, until termination of this Agreement and repayment in full of the Obligations.

13.12 Further Assurances. Each Credit Party will take, or cause to be taken, all such further actions and execute, or cause to be executed, all such further documents and instruments as Lender may at any time reasonably request or determine to be necessary or advisable to further carry out and consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Credit Documents.

13.13 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of each Borrower and its successors and to the benefit of Lender and its successors and assigns. The rights and obligations of each Credit Party under this Agreement shall not be assigned or delegated without the prior written consent of Lender, and any purported assignment or delegation without such consent shall be null and void. Lender reserves the right at any time to create and sell participations in the Loans and the Credit Documents and to sell, transfer or assign any or all of its rights in the Loans and under the Credit Documents.

1. Lender may, subject to the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, incur Letter of Credit Obligations in respect of the issuance of Letters of Credit issued on terms acceptable to Lender and supporting obligations of a Borrower incurred in the ordinary course of such Borrower’s business, in order to support the payment of such Borrower’s inventory purchase obligations, insurance premiums, or utility or other operating expenses and obligations, as Borrowing Representative, on behalf of such Borrower, shall request by written notice to Lender that is received by Lender not less than five (5) Business Days prior to the requested date of issuance of any such Letter of Credit;provided, that: (a) that the aggregate amount of all Letter of Credit Obligations at any one time outstanding (whether or not then due and payable) shall not exceed $500,000 and (b) no Letter of Credit shall have an expiry date which is later than the Termination Date or one year following the date of issuance thereof. The applicable Borrower will enter into an application and agreement for such Letter of Credit with the LC Issuer selected by Lender. The LC Issuer shall be determined by Lender in its sole discretion.

2. The notice to be provided to Lender requesting that Lender incur Letter of Credit Obligations shall be in the form of a Letter of Credit application in the form customarily employed by the LC Issuer, together with a written request by a Borrower and the LC Issuer that Lender approve such Borrower’s application. Upon receipt of such notice Lender shall establish a reserve against the Borrowing Base in the amount of 100% of the face amount of the Letter of Credit Obligation to be incurred. Approval by Lender in the written form agreed upon between Lender and the LC Issuer (a) will authorize the LC Issuer to issue the requested Letter of Credit and (b) will conclusively establish the existence of the Letter of Credit Obligation as of the date of such approval.

3. Each Letter of Credit shall be subject to the Uniform Commercial Customs and, to the extent not inconsistent therewith, the laws of the State of New York.

4. Each payment by the LC Issuer or Lender pursuant to a Letter of Credit shall be deemed to be a Revolving Credit Advance on the date of such payment in a principal amount equal to the amount so paid. Each Borrower shall be obligated to reimburse Lender for each payment made under or in respect of any Letter of Credit (including, the payment of principal, fees and interest on any Revolving Credit Advance made pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence and any payment made by Lender in reimbursement of any payment made under a Letter of Credit by an LC Issuer together with such other amounts that become due pursuant to this Agreement or other instrument.

5. The obligations of each Borrower under thisSchedule shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable under any and all circumstances and shall be paid strictly in accordance with this Agreement irrespective of: (a) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or of any demand, application, reimbursement agreement or other agreement or instrument relating thereto (collectively, the “Related Documents”); (b) the existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other right that any Borrower or any other Person may at any time have against the beneficiary under any Letter of Credit, Lender, the LC Issuer, any of their correspondents or any other Person; (c) any improper or erroneous or mistaken payment by any LC Issuer or Lender under any Letter of Credit; (d) any supplement or waiver of or any consent to depart from the terms of any Letter of Credit or Related Document; and (e) any other circumstance or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing.

7. Except insofar as instructions may be given to Lender by each Borrower in writing expressly to the contrary with regard to, and prior to the opening of, any Letter of Credit, each Borrower agrees that Lender, the LC Issuer and any of their correspondents may: (a) receive and accept as “bills of lading” under any Letter of Credit any documents issued or purporting to be issued by or on behalf of any carrier which acknowledges receipt of goods for transportation or otherwise, whatever the specific provisions of such documents, for which purpose the “on board” date of each such document shall be deemed the date of shipment of the goods mentioned therein; (b) accept as documents of insurance either insurance policies or insurance certificates; (c) receive and accept as sufficient and controlling the description of the property contained in the invoice, and receive and accept bills of lading, insurance and other documents, however variant in description from that contained in the invoice; (d) receive and accept bills of lading containing stamped, written or typewritten provisions thereon, whether or not signed or initialed, and assume conclusively that the same were placed with authority on any bill of lading at the time of its signing and issuance by the steamship company or carrier or any agent thereof; (e) honor drafts, instruments or demands related to part shipments under any Letter of Credit; (f) accept or pay any draft dated on or before the expiration of any time limit expressed in any Letter of Credit, regardless of when drawn and whether or when negotiated, provided that the other required documents are dated on or prior to the expiration date of such Letter of Credit; and (g) accept documents of any character which comply with the provisions, definitions, interpretations and practices contained in the Uniform Customs or which comply with the laws or regulations in force in, or the customs or usages of, the place of shipment or negotiation.
