All capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meanings specified in Annex I attached hereto. RECITALS Borrower has requested that Bank extend or continue credit to Borrower as described below, and Bank has agreed to provide such credit to Borrower on the terms and conditions contained herein. NOW, THEREFORE, for valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Bank and Borrower hereby agree as follows: ARTICLE I CREDIT TERMS, GUARANTY & COLLATERAL SECTION 1.1. LINE OF CREDIT. (a) Line of Credit. (i) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Bank hereby agrees to make advances to Borrower from time to time up to and including April 30, 2022 (the “Expiration Date”), not to exceed at any time the aggregate principal amount of Fifteen Million and 00/100 Dollars ($15,000,000.00) (“Line of Credit”), the proceeds of which shall be used (a) to refinance existing indebtedness of the Borrower to Bank of America, N.A. and (b) for working capital, the issuance of letters of credit, short term financing of capital equipment, and other general corporate purposes. Borrower’s obligation to repay advances under the Line of Credit shall be evidenced by a promissory note dated as of the Closing Date (“Line of Credit Note”), all terms of which are incorporated herein by this reference. (ii) In addition to the provisions of Section 1.1(c) regarding Letters of Credit, for purposes of determining the amount available under the Line of Credit, the principal amount outstanding under the Line of Credit shall be deemed to include the aggregate principal amount outstanding under all lines of credit, or other credit facilities, provided by the Bank, or any affiliate of the Bank, to any of the Borrower’s Foreign Subsidiaries (collectively, the “Foreign Subsidiary Credit Lines”). (b) Limitation on Borrowings. (i) Outstanding borrowings under the Line of Credit, to a maximum of the principal amount set forth above, shall not at any time exceed an aggregate of Four Million and 00/100 Dollars ($4,000,000.00) in respect of advances made for the purpose of financing capital equipment (the “Equipment Finance Subfacility”). (ii) Outstanding borrowings under the Line of Credit, to a maximum of the principal amount set forth in clause (a) of this Section 1.1, shall not at any time exceed an aggregate of eighty percent (80%) of Borrower’s Eligible Accounts Receivable, plus twenty-one percent (21%) of the value of Borrower’s eligible inventory (including unbilled inventory but exclusive of work in process, inventory which is obsolete, unsaleable or damaged and crating material), with value defined as the lower of cost or market value; provided, however, that unbilled inventory shall not be included in eligible inventory after

All of the foregoing shall be determined by Bank upon receipt and review of all collateral reports required hereunder and such other documents and collateral information as Bank may from time to time require. Borrower acknowledges that said borrowing base was established by Bank with the understanding that, among other items, the aggregate of all returns, rebates, discounts, credits and allowances for the immediately preceding three (3) months at all times shall be less than five percent (5%) of Borrower’s gross sales for said period. If such dilution of Borrower’s accounts for the immediately preceding three (3) months at any time exceeds five percent (5%) of Borrower’s gross sales for said period, or if there at any time exists any other matters, events, conditions or contingencies which Bank reasonably believes may affect payment of any portion of Borrower’s accounts, Bank, in its sole discretion, may reduce the foregoing advance rate against Eligible Accounts Receivable to a percentage appropriate to reflect such additional dilution and/or establish additional reserves against Borrower’s Eligible Accounts Receivable, provided that the amount of any reserve established by Bank shall have a reasonable relationship to the matter, event, condition or contingency that is the basis for such reserve and shall not be duplicative of any other reserve established and currently maintained. (c) Letter of Credit Subfeature. As a subfeature under the Line of Credit, Bank agrees from time to time during the term thereof to issue or cause an affiliate to issue commercial or standby letters of credit for the account of Borrower (each, a “Letter of Credit” and collectively, “Letters of Credit”); provided however, that the aggregate undrawn amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit shall not at any time exceed Five Million Three Hundred and Forty-Four Thousand Two Hundred Ninety-Three and 00/100 Dollars ($5,344,293), provided that, from and after the earlier of (a) the date that is 30 days after the Sixth Amendment Effective Date and (b) the cancellation of the Terminating Letter of Credit, such undrawn amount shall not exceed the aggregate principal amount of Three Million and 00/100 Dollars ($3,000,000.00). The form and substance of each Letter of Credit shall be subject to approval by Bank, in its sole discretion and shall be subject to the additional terms of the Letter of Credit agreements, applications, and any related documents required by Bank in connection with the issuance thereof (each a “Letter of Credit Agreement”).

Each Letter of Credit shall be subject to the additional terms and conditions of the Letter of Credit Agreements. Each drawing paid under a Letter of Credit shall be deemed an advance under the Line of Credit and shall be repaid by Borrower in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement applicable to such advances; provided however, that if advances under the Line of Credit are not available, for any reason, at the time any drawing is paid, then Borrower shall immediately pay to Bank the full amount drawn, together with interest thereon from the date such drawing is paid to the date such amount is fully repaid by Borrower, at the rate of interest applicable to advances under the Line of Credit. In such event Borrower agrees that Bank, in its sole discretion, may debit any account maintained by Borrower with Bank for the amount of any such drawing. (d) Borrowing and Repayment.

Accruing from the Fourth Amendment Effective Date and continuing on the last business day of each quarter thereafter until the Expiration Date, the Borrower shall pay a non- refundable unused fee to the Bank, in arrears, at the rate of one tenth of one percent (0.10%) per annum on the average daily balance of the Line of Credit which is undisbursed and uncancelled during the preceding quarter; provided, that for purposes of the foregoing the face amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit shall be treated as amounts outstanding under the Line of Credit. The unused fee shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and paid on the actual number of days elapsed. SECTION 1.4. COLLECTION OF PAYMENTS. Borrower authorizes Bank to collect all principal, interest and fees due under each credit subject hereto by charging Borrower’s deposit account number 4000144592 with Bank, or any other deposit account maintained by Borrower with Bank, for the full amount thereof. Should there be insufficient funds in any such deposit account to pay all such sums when due, the full amount of such deficiency shall be immediately due and payable by Borrower. SECTION 1.5. GUARANTY AND COLLATERAL. (a) Guaranty. The Borrower unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees to the Bank the punctual payment of all sums now owing or which may in the future be owing by any Foreign Subsidiary under the Foreign Subsidiary Credit Lines, when the same are due and payable, whether on demand, at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, and whether for principal, interest, fees, expenses, indemnification or otherwise (all of the foregoing sums being the “Guaranteed Liabilities”). The Guaranteed Liabilities include, without limitation, interest accruing after the commencement of a proceeding under bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws of any jurisdiction at the rate or rates provided in the documents executed in connection with the Foreign Subsidiary Credit Lines (the “Foreign Credit Documents”). This is a guaranty of payment and not of collection. The Bank shall not be required to exhaust any right or remedy or take any action against any Foreign Subsidiary or any other Person or any collateral. The Borrower agrees that, as between the Borrower and the Bank, the Guaranteed Liabilities may be declared to be due and payable for the purposes of this guaranty notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition which may prevent, delay or vitiate any declaration as regards any Foreign Subsidiary and that in the event of a declaration or attempted declaration, the Guaranteed Liabilities shall immediately become due and payable by the Borrower for the purposes of this guaranty. (i) The Borrower guarantees that the Guaranteed Liabilities shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of the Foreign Subsidiary Credit Lines. The liability of the Borrower under this Section 1.5 is absolute and unconditional irrespective of: (a) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Foreign Credit Documents or Guaranteed Liabilities, or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from any of the terms of any Foreign Credit Document or Guaranteed Liability, including any increase or decrease in the rate of interest thereon; (b) any release or amendment or waiver of, or consent to departure from, any other guaranty or support document, or any exchange, release or non-perfection of any collateral, for all or any of the Foreign Credit Documents or Guaranteed Liabilities; (c) any present or future law, regulation or order of any jurisdiction (whether of right or in fact) or of any agency thereof purporting to reduce, amend, restructure or otherwise affect any term of any Foreign Credit Document or Guaranteed Liability; (d) without being limited by the foregoing, any lack of validity or enforceability of any Foreign Credit Documents or Guaranteed Liabilities; and (e) any other setoff, defense or counterclaim whatsoever (in any case, whether based on contract, tort or any

-5- CHAR2\2445046v5 other theory) with respect to the Foreign Credit Documents or the transactions contemplated thereby which might constitute a legal or equitable defense available to, or discharge of, any Foreign Subsidiary or a guarantor. (ii) The guaranty under this Section 1.5 is a continuing guaranty of the payment of all Guaranteed Liabilities now or hereafter existing under the Foreign Subsidiary Credit Lines and shall remain in full force and effect until payment in full of all Guaranteed Liabilities and until the Foreign Subsidiary Credit Lines are no longer in effect. (iii) The guaranty under this Section 1.5 shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment of any of the Guaranteed Liabilities is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by the Bank on the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Borrower or otherwise, all as though the payment had not been made. (iv) All payments by the Borrower shall be made in the manner, at the place and in the currency (the “Payment Currency”) required by the Foreign Credit Documents; provided, however, that (if the Payment Currency is other than U.S. dollars) the Borrower may, at its option (or, if for any reason whatsoever the Borrower is unable to effect payments in the foregoing manner, the Borrower shall be obligated to) pay to the Bank at its principal office the equivalent amount in U.S. dollars computed at the selling rate of the Bank or a selling rate chosen by the Bank, most recently in effect on or prior to the date the Guaranteed Liability becomes due, for cable transfers of the Payment Currency to the place where the Guaranteed Liability is payable. In any case in which the Borrower makes or is obligated to make payment in U.S. Dollars, the Borrower shall hold the Bank harmless from any loss incurred by the Bank arising from any change in the value of U.S. Dollars in relation to the Payment Currency between the date the Guaranteed Liability becomes due and the date the Bank is actually able, following the conversion of the U.S. Dollars paid by the Borrower into the Payment Currency and remittance of such Payment Currency to the place where such Guaranteed Liability is payable, to apply such Payment Currency to such Guaranteed Liability. (v) The Borrower further agrees that all payments to be made under this Section 1.5 shall be made without setoff or counterclaim and free and clear of, and without deduction for, any taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions, withholdings or restrictions or conditions of any nature whatsoever now or hereafter imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any country or by any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein (collectively, “Taxes”). If any Taxes are required to be withheld from any amounts payable to the Bank hereunder, the amounts so payable to the Bank shall be increased to the extent necessary to yield to the Bank (after payment of all Taxes) the amounts payable hereunder in the full amounts so to be paid. Whenever any Tax is paid by the Borrower, as promptly as possible thereafter, the Borrower shall send the Bank an official receipt showing payment thereof, together with such additional documentary evidence as may be required from time to time by the Bank. (b) Pledge of Pledged Interests as Security for Line of Credit. The Borrower hereby grants to the Bank, as collateral security for the payment, performance and satisfaction of all of the Borrower’s obligations to the Bank hereunder with respect to the Line of Credit (including, without limitation, all Letters of Credit and the Borrower’s obligations set forth in Section 1.5) and all of the Borrower’s obligations to the Bank under any Swap Contract related to the Line of Credit, a first priority security interest in all of the Collateral (as such term is defined in the Security Agreement) secured by the Security Agreement and all of the following items of property now owned or hereafter owned by the Borrower (collectively, together with the Equipment (defined below), the “Collateral”): (i) all Equity Interests in all of its Direct Foreign Subsidiaries (limited, in each case to Equity Interests that, when taken with all other Equity Interests pledged hereunder, constitute no more

-6- CHAR2\2445046v5 than (i) 65% of the Voting Equity Interests of each Direct Foreign Subsidiary and (ii) 100% of the other Equity Interests of the Borrower in each Direct Foreign Subsidiary), in each case, whether now existing or hereafter created or acquired (collectively, the “Pledged Interests”), including without limitation the Pledged Interests more particularly described on Schedule 1.5(b), as it may be updated from time to time (such Direct Foreign Subsidiaries, are referred to collectively as the “Pledged Subsidiaries”); (ii) all money, securities, security entitlements and other investment property, dividends, rights, general intangibles and other property at any time and from time to time (i) declared or distributed in respect of or in exchange for or on conversion of any Pledged Interest, or (ii) by its or their terms exchangeable or exercisable for or convertible into any Pledged Interest; (iii) all other personal property of whatever character or description, including money, securities, security entitlements and other investment property, and general intangibles hereafter delivered to the Bank in substitution for or as an addition to any of the foregoing, but excluding any Equity Interests in any of its Direct Foreign Subsidiaries in addition to those Equity Interests in which a security interest is granted pursuant to Section 1.5(b)(i); (iv) all securities accounts to which may at any time be credited any or all of the foregoing or any proceeds thereof and all certificates and instruments representing or evidencing any of the foregoing or any proceeds thereof; and (v) all proceeds of any of the foregoing. (c) Term Loan Collateral. The Borrower hereby additionally grants to the Bank, as collateral security for the payment, performance and satisfaction of all of the Borrower’s obligations to the Bank hereunder with respect to the Term Loans and all Swap Contracts related to the Term Loans, a first priority security interest in all Equipment now owned or hereafter owned by the Borrower, wherever located. “Equipment” as used herein means all goods (excluding inventory, farm products or consumer goods), all machinery, machine tools, equipment, office equipment, furniture, furnishings, motors, motor vehicles, tools, dies, parts, jigs, and all attachments, accessories, accessions, replacements, substitutions, additions and improvements thereto, all supplies used or useful in connection therewith, and all other “Equipment” as same is now or hereafter defined in Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code in effect in the State of North Carolina, together with all rents, issues, profits, products and proceeds of any of the foregoing. (d) Preservation and Protection of Collateral. (i) The Bank shall be under no duty or liability with respect to the collection, protection or preservation of the Collateral or otherwise, beyond the use of reasonable care in the custody and preservation thereof while in its possession. (ii) The Borrower agrees to pay when due all Taxes, charges, Liens and assessments against the Collateral, unless being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings diligently conducted and against which adequate reserves have been established in accordance with GAAP, consistently applied and evidenced to the satisfaction of Bank and provided that all enforcement proceedings in the nature of levy or foreclosure are effectively stayed. Upon the Borrower’s failure to (i) so pay or contest such Taxes, charges, Liens or assessments or (ii) pay any amount pursuant to Section 1.5(i), the Bank at its option may pay or contest any of them (the Bank having the sole right to determine the legality or validity and the amount necessary to discharge such Taxes, charges, Liens or assessments) but shall not have any obligation to make any such payment or contest. All sums so disbursed by the Bank, including attorneys’ fees, court costs, expenses and other charges related thereto,

-7- CHAR2\2445046v5 shall be payable on demand by the Borrower to the Bank and shall be additional obligations secured by the Collateral, as the case may be, and any amounts not so paid on demand (in addition to other rights and remedies resulting from such nonpayment) shall bear interest from the date of demand until paid in full at the default rate set forth in promissory notes evidencing the Line of Credit and the Term Loans. (iii) The Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes Bank to file (with, or to the extent permitted by applicable law, without the signature of the Borrower appearing thereon) financing statements (including amendments thereto and continuations and copies thereof) showing the Borrower as “debtor” at such time or times and in all filing offices as the Bank may from time to time determine to be necessary or advisable to perfect or protect its Lien and security interest in the Collateral. Any such financing statement covering the Collateral shall describe the Collateral as described in Sections 1.5(b) and 1.5(c) above. (e) Default. If any Event of Default occurs, the Bank is given full power and authority, then or at any time thereafter, to sell, assign, deliver or collect the whole or any part of the Collateral, or any substitute therefor or any addition thereto, in one or more sales, with or without any previous demands or demand of performance or, to the extent permitted by law, notice or advertisement, in such order as the Bank may elect; and any such sale may be made either at public or private sale at the Bank’s place of business or elsewhere, either for cash or upon credit or for future delivery, at such price or prices as the Bank may reasonably deem fair; and the Bank may be the purchaser of any or all Collateral so sold and hold the same thereafter in its own right free from any claim of the Borrower or right of redemption. Demands of performance, advertisements and presence of property and sale and notice of sale are hereby waived to the extent permissible by law. Any sale hereunder may be conducted by an auctioneer or any officer or agent of the Bank. The Borrower recognizes that the Bank may be unable to effect a public sale of the Collateral described in Section 1.5(b) by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and applicable state law, and may be otherwise delayed or adversely affected in effecting any sale by reason of present or future restrictions thereon imposed by governmental authorities, and that as a consequence of such prohibitions and restrictions the Bank may be compelled (i) to resort to one or more private sales to a restricted group of purchasers who will be obliged to agree, among other things, to acquire such Collateral for their own account, for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof, or (ii) to seek regulatory approval of any proposed sale or sales, or (iii) to limit the amount of such Collateral sold to any Person or group. The Borrower agrees and acknowledges that private sales so made may be at prices and upon terms less favorable to the Borrower than if such Collateral was sold either at public sales or at private sales not subject to other regulatory restrictions, and that the Bank has no obligation to delay the sale of any of such Collateral for the period of time necessary to permit the Pledged Subsidiary to register or otherwise qualify such Collateral, even if such Pledged Subsidiary would agree to register or otherwise qualify such Collateral for public sale under the Securities Act or applicable state law. The Borrower further agrees, to the extent permitted by applicable law, that the use of private sales made under the foregoing circumstances to dispose of such Collateral shall be deemed to be dispositions in a commercially reasonable manner. The Borrower hereby acknowledges that a ready market may not exist for the Pledged Interests if they are not traded on a national securities exchange or quoted on an automated quotation system and agrees and acknowledges that in such event the Pledged Interests may be sold for an amount less than a pro rata share of the fair market value of the Pledged Subsidiary’s assets minus its liabilities. In addition to the foregoing, the Bank may exercise such other rights and remedies as may be available under the Loan Documents, at law (including without limitation the UCC) or in equity. (f) Proceeds of Sale. The net cash proceeds resulting from the collection, liquidation, sale, or other disposition of the Collateral (other than the Equipment) shall be applied first to the expenses (including attorney’s fees) of retaking, holding, storing, processing and preparing for sale, selling, collecting, liquidating and the like, and then to the satisfaction of all obligations hereunder with respect to

-8- CHAR2\2445046v5 the Line of Credit (including, without limitation, all Letters of Credit and the Borrower’s obligations set forth in Section 1.5) and under any Swap Contract related to the Line of Credit. The net cash proceeds resulting from the collection, liquidation, sale, or other disposition of the Equipment shall be applied first to the expenses (including attorney’s fees) of retaking, holding, storing, processing and preparing for sale, selling, collecting, liquidating and the like, and then to the satisfaction of all obligations hereunder with respect to the Term Loans and under any Swap Contract related to the Term Loans. To the extent required by the UCC, any surplus of net cash or net cash proceeds held by the Bank and remaining after payment in full of all of the Borrower’s obligations hereunder shall be paid over to the Borrower or to whomsoever may be lawfully entitled to receive such surplus. The Borrower shall be liable to the Bank for, and shall pay to the Bank on demand, any deficiency or deficiencies which may remain after such sale, disposition, collection or liquidation of the Collateral. (g) Presentments, Demands and Notices. The Bank shall not be under any duty or obligation whatsoever to make or give any presentments, demands for performances, notices of nonperformance, protests, notice of protest or notice of dishonor in connection with any obligations or evidences of indebtedness held thereby as collateral, or in connection with any obligations or evidences of indebtedness which constitute in whole or in part the obligations secured hereby. (h) Voting Rights. (i) So long as no Event of Default has occurred, the registration of the Collateral described in Section 1.5(b) in the name of the Borrower as record and beneficial owner shall not be changed and the Borrower shall be entitled to exercise all voting and other rights and powers pertaining to such Collateral for all purposes not inconsistent with the terms hereof. (ii) If any Event of Default occurs, at the option of the Bank, all rights and powers of the Borrower described in clause (a) above shall cease and the Bank may thereupon (but shall not be obligated to), at its request, cause such Collateral to be registered in the name of the Bank or its nominee and/or exercise such rights and powers as appertain to ownership of such Collateral, and to that end the Borrower hereby appoints the Bank as its proxy, with full power of substitution, to vote and exercise all other rights as a shareholder with respect to such Pledged Interests, which proxy is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable, and the Borrower hereby agrees to provide such further proxies as the Bank may request; provided, that the Bank in its discretion may from time to time refrain from exercising, and shall not be obligated to exercise, any such rights or powers or such proxy. (i) Attorney-in-Fact. The Borrower hereby appoints the Bank as the Borrower’s attorney-in- fact for the purposes of carrying out the provisions of this Section 1.5 and taking any action and executing any instrument which the Bank may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes hereof, which appointment is irrevocable and coupled with an interest; provided, that the Bank shall have and may exercise rights under this power of attorney only if any Event of Default occurs. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if any Event of Default occurs, the Bank shall have the right and power to receive, endorse and collect all checks and other orders for the payment of money made payable to the Borrower representing any dividend, interest payment, principal payment or other distribution payable or distributable in respect to the Collateral or any part thereof and to give full discharge for the same. (j) Reinstatement. This Section 1.5 shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment received by the Bank in respect of any obligation secured hereby is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by the Bank or is repaid by the Bank in whole or in part in good faith settlement of a pending or threatened avoidance claim. The provisions of this Section 1.5(i) shall survive the repayment in full of all of the obligations hereunder and the termination of the Line of Credit.

-9- CHAR2\2445046v5 (k) Further Assurances. At the request of the Bank, the Borrower will from time to time (i) execute and deliver, at its expense, all share certificates, documents, instruments, agreements, financing statements (and amendments thereto and continuations thereof), assignments, control agreements, or other writings to carry out the terms of this Section 1.5 or to protect or enforce the Bank’s Liens and security interests in the Collateral, and (ii) do, at its expense, all things determined by the Bank to be necessary or advisable to perfect and keep in full force and effect the Bank’s Liens and security interests in the Collateral, including the prompt payment of all out-of-pocket fees and expenses incurred in connection with any filings made to perfect or continue the Bank’s Liens and security interests in the Collateral. (l) Miscellaneous. (i) The Borrower agrees to register the interest of the Bank in the Collateral described in Section 1.5(b) on its own books and records and the registration books of each of the Pledged Subsidiaries. (ii) Any forbearance, failure or delay by the Bank in exercising any right, power or remedy hereunder shall not be deemed to be a waiver of such right, power or remedy. (iii) Subject to the provisions of Section 1.5(k), upon satisfaction in full of all the Borrower’s obligations hereunder and the termination of the Line of Credit, the Bank shall, at the Borrower’s sole expense, promptly deliver to the Borrower the certificates evidencing its shares of Pledged Interests (and any other property received as a dividend or distribution or otherwise in respect of such Pledged Interests to the extent then held by the Bank as additional Collateral hereunder), together with any cash then constituting the Collateral not then sold or otherwise disposed of in accordance with the provisions hereof, and take such further actions at the request of the Borrower as may be necessary to effect the same.

The parties hereto agree, upon demand by any party, to submit to binding arbitration all claims, disputes and controversies between or among them (and their respective employees, officers, directors, attorneys, and other agents), whether in tort, contract or otherwise in any way arising out of or relating to (i) any credit subject hereto, or any of the Loan Documents, and their negotiation, execution, collateralization, administration, repayment, modification, extension, substitution, formation, inducement, enforcement, default or termination; or (ii) requests for additional credit. (b) Governing Rules. Any arbitration proceeding will (i) proceed in a location in North Carolina selected by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”); (ii) be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (Title 9 of the United States Code), notwithstanding any conflicting choice of law provision in any of the documents between the parties; and (iii) be conducted by the AAA, or such other administrator as the parties shall mutually agree upon, in accordance with the AAA’s commercial dispute resolution procedures, unless the claim or counterclaim is at least $1,000,000.00 exclusive of claimed interest, arbitration fees and costs in which case the arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the AAA’s optional procedures for large, complex commercial disputes (the commercial dispute resolution procedures or the optional procedures for large, complex commercial disputes to be referred to herein, as applicable, as the “Rules”). If there is any inconsistency between the terms hereof and the Rules, the terms and procedures set forth herein shall control. Any party who fails or refuses to submit to arbitration following a demand by any other party shall bear all costs and expenses incurred by such other party in compelling arbitration of any dispute. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to be a waiver by any party that is a bank of the protections afforded to it under 12 U.S.C. §91 or any similar applicable state law. (c) No Waiver of Provisional Remedies, Self-Help and Foreclosure. The arbitration requirement does not limit the right of any party to (i) foreclose against real or personal property collateral; (ii) exercise self-help remedies relating to collateral or proceeds of collateral such as setoff or repossession; or (iii) obtain provisional or ancillary remedies such as replevin, injunctive relief, attachment or the appointment of a receiver, before during or after the pendency of any arbitration proceeding. This exclusion does not constitute a waiver of the right or obligation of any party to submit any dispute to arbitration or reference hereunder, including those arising from the exercise of the actions detailed in sections (i), (ii) and (iii) of this paragraph.

-24- CHAR2\2445046v5 (d) Arbitrator Qualifications and Powers. Any arbitration proceeding in which the amount in controversy is $5,000,000.00 or less will be decided by a single arbitrator selected according to the Rules, and who shall not render an award of greater than $5,000,000.00. Any dispute in which the amount in controversy exceeds $5,000,000.00 shall be decided by majority vote of a panel of three arbitrators; provided however, that all three arbitrators must actively participate in all hearings and deliberations. The arbitrator will be a neutral attorney licensed in the State of North Carolina or a neutral retired judge of the state or federal judiciary of North Carolina, in either case with a minimum of ten years’ experience in the substantive law applicable to the subject matter of the dispute to be arbitrated. The arbitrator will determine whether or not an issue is arbitrable and will give effect to the statutes of limitation in determining any claim. In any arbitration proceeding the arbitrator will decide (by documents only or with a hearing at the arbitrator’s discretion) any pre-hearing motions which are similar to motions to dismiss for failure to state a claim or motions for summary adjudication. The arbitrator shall resolve all disputes in accordance with the substantive law of North Carolina and may grant any remedy or relief that a court of such state could order or grant within the scope hereof and such ancillary relief as is necessary to make effective any award. The arbitrator shall also have the power to award recovery of all costs and fees, to impose sanctions and to take such other action as the arbitrator deems necessary to the same extent a judge could pursuant to the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, the North Carolina Rules of Civil Procedure or other applicable law. Judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. The institution and maintenance of an action for judicial relief or pursuit of a provisional or ancillary remedy shall not constitute a waiver of the right of any party, including the plaintiff, to submit the controversy or claim to arbitration if any other party contests such action for judicial relief. (e) Discovery. In any arbitration proceeding, discovery will be permitted in accordance with the Rules. All discovery shall be expressly limited to matters directly relevant to the dispute being arbitrated and must be completed no later than 20 days before the hearing date. Any requests for an extension of the discovery periods, or any discovery disputes, will be subject to final determination by the arbitrator upon a showing that the request for discovery is essential for the party’s presentation and that no alternative means for obtaining information is available. (f) Class Proceedings and Consolidations. No party hereto shall be entitled to join or consolidate disputes by or against others in any arbitration, except parties who have executed any Loan Document, or to include in any arbitration any dispute as a representative or member of a class, or to act in any arbitration in the interest of the general public or in a private attorney general capacity. (g) Payment Of Arbitration Costs And Fees. The arbitrator shall award all costs and expenses of the arbitration proceeding. (h) Miscellaneous. To the maximum extent practicable, the AAA, the arbitrators and the parties shall take all action required to conclude any arbitration proceeding within 180 days of the filing of the dispute with the AAA. No arbitrator or other party to an arbitration proceeding may disclose the existence, content or results thereof, except for disclosures of information by a party required in the ordinary course of its business or by applicable law or regulation. If more than one agreement for arbitration by or between the parties potentially applies to a dispute, the arbitration provision most directly related to the Loan Documents or the subject matter of the dispute shall control. This arbitration provision shall survive termination, amendment or expiration of any of the Loan Documents or any relationship between the parties. (i) Waiver of Jury Trial. The parties hereto hereby acknowledge that by agreeing to binding arbitration they have irrevocably waived their respective rights to a jury trial with respect to any action, claim or other proceeding arising out of any dispute in connection this Agreement or any other agreement

CHAR2\2445046v5 Exhibit A FORM OF BILL/HOLD ACKNOWLEDGMENT LETTER BILL AND HOLD LETTER [SELLER’S NAME] ___________________________ ____________________________ ______________, 201__ [CUSTOMER’S NAME] ________________________ ________________________ Attention:______________ Dear Customer: From time to time you (the “Customer”) may request that the undersigned (the “Seller”) manufacture and produce certain goods for future shipment to you. This will confirm the agreement of Customer and Seller that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any purchase order, invoice or other agreement between Customer and Seller, title to such goods manufactured and produced by Seller for Customer and risk of loss as to such goods passes to Customer when Seller has completed production of the goods covered by Customer’s order and the goods have been invoiced by Seller to Customer, notwithstanding that the goods so sold may remain on the premises of Seller or otherwise in its control or possession. Such goods are held for the account of Customer and at its risk and each invoice with respect to such goods issued to Customer by Seller represents a definitive and final sale and Customer shall pay the same when due, regardless of whether the goods have been shipped or delivered to Customer as of such time or are otherwise accepted by Customer. Customer agrees that, except as provided below, in no event shall Customer, or any person claiming by, through or under it, offset or withhold payment in respect of any account for any offset, claim, defense, counterclaim, abatement, suspension, recoupment or deduction which Customer may have against Seller for any amounts which may now or hereafter be due to Customer from Seller for any reason, except that Customer may, in the ordinary course of business assert any bona fide offsets or deductions it may lawfully have only against accounts due to the Customer by reason of the delivery to Customer by Seller of defective or non-conforming goods to the extent that the basis for the offset or deduction arises out of the same transaction giving rise to the account due which is subject to the asserted offset or deduction. The fact that Customer has limited its setoff and recoupment rights against accounts due to Seller shall not limit any rights or remedies Customer may have against Seller or any of its other assets. Customer waives any right that it may have under any Federal, State or other law, including, without limitation, all rights under Section 553 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, to assert any such rights.

CHAR2\2445046v5 Seller may store the goods at its premises or in leased warehouse space. The goods will be shipped to Customer from time to time at its request upon reasonable prior notice in accordance with Seller’s policies as in effect from time to time. All out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Seller for storage, insurance or disposal in connection with the goods manufactured for Customer by Seller are to be billed by Seller to Customer in accordance with Seller’s policies as in effect from time to time.

CHAR2\2445046v5 Seller would appreciate the confirmation of the agreement of Customer to the above arrangements by signing and returning to Seller the enclosed copy of this letter. The agreement of Customer in this letter will be binding on its successors and assigns. In making loans to Seller based on the accounts payable by Customer to Seller from such sales, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, the lender to Seller, is relying on the agreements of Customer in this letter and the terms of this letter will inure to the benefit of such lender and its successors and assigns (including any other lender that refinances or replaces its financing) and such lender and successors and assigns will be entitled to enforce the terms hereof directly. The terms of this letter may not be modified by course of dealing or otherwise than in writing signed by Seller and approved in writing by its lender. We would like to take this opportunity to thank you for your continued business.
