LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT – Page 22

(a) Revolving Loans. Subject to the terms and provisions of this Agreement, Lender agrees to make advances to Borrowers from time to time during the period from the date of this Agreement to the Termination Date in an amount not exceeding the Availability as of such time of determination (such advances made by Lender pursuant to this Section 2.1(a) collectively, the “Revolving Loans”); provided, that in no event shall the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the Revolving Loans exceed the Revolving Credit Limit. Borrower may borrow, repay and re-borrow Revolving Loans from time to time, subject to the terms of this Agreement. Lender shall have the continuing right to establish and maintain any reserves for purposes of calculating the Borrowing Base in such amounts and at such times and with respect to such matters and for such purposes as Lender deems appropriate without prior notice to Borrowers, including reserves with respect to collection performance, slow moving or obsolete Inventory, dilution of Accounts, contingencies, amounts a Borrower is or may be required to pay (such as taxes, freight and shipping charges, duties, insurance premiums, amounts owing to licensors, landlords, warehousemen, carriers, mechanics, materialmen, laborers or suppliers, or ad valorem, excise, sales, or other taxes) or any other matter in Lender’s discretion. Any such reserves are solely for purposes of calculating the Borrowing Base and do not constitute or represent cash funds. No Revolving Loans shall be evidenced by a note unless requested otherwise by Lender, in which case the Revolving Loans shall be evidenced by a note executed by Borrowers in favor of Lender (as amended, supplemented, restated or otherwise modified, the “Revolving Note”) in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender.

(b) Term Loan. Subject to the terms and provisions of this Agreement, Lender agrees to make a term loan to Borrowers for the purpose of financing Eligible Equipment once all conditions precedent to the initial funding hereunder have been met in accordance with Sections 6.1 and 6.3 (such date, the “Initial Term Loan Funding Date”) in an amount equal to the Initial Term Loan Amount (the “Initial Term Loan Advance”). Thereafter, subject to the terms and provisions of this Agreement, Lender agrees to make additional term loan advances to Borrowers from time to time during the Term Loan Commitment Period for the purpose of refinancing Eligible Equipment in an amount not to exceed the lesser of (i) the Applicable Term Loan Advance Amount and (ii) the Maximum Term Loan Advance Amount at such time (such term loan advances and the Initial Term Loan Advance, collectively, the “Term Loan Advances” and each a “Term Loan Advance”); provided, that no more than five (5) Term Loan Advances will be made after the Agreement Date. Amounts paid on the Term Loan may not be re-borrowed. The Term Loan shall not (and no portion of the Term Loan shall) be evidenced by a note unless requested by Lender, in which case the Term Loan shall be evidenced by a note executed by Borrowers in favor of Lender (as amended, supplemented, restated or otherwise modified, the “Term Note”) in form and substance satisfactory to Lender.

(c) Accounting for Loans. Lender shall maintain, in accordance with its usual practice, electronic or written records evidencing the outstanding Obligations of each Borrower to Lender, including without limitation the Obligations resulting from each Loan made by Lender to each Borrower from time to time, and the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to Lender from time to time in respect of each Loan. The entries made in the electronic or written records maintained pursuant to this Section 2.1(c) shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the Obligations therein recorded; provided, however, that the failure of Lender to maintain such records or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligations of the Borrowers to repay their respective Obligations in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT – Page 23

(a) Request for Revolving Loans and Term Loan Advances. Borrower Representative shall request each Revolving Loan, on behalf of all Borrowers, by delivering to Lender a written Borrowing Notice, signed by a Responsible Officer of Borrower Representative, accompanied by a Borrowing Base Certificate complying with Section 8.5 and reflecting sufficient Availability. After the Agreement Date, Borrower shall request each Term Loan Advance, on behalf of all Borrowers, by delivering to Lender a written Borrowing Notice, signed by a Responsible Officer of Borrower Representative, payoff letters as required by Section 6.2, and such other information as Lender may require relating to Eligible Equipment being refinanced by such Loan. Unless otherwise agreed by Lender, each request for a Loan shall be irrevocable and, in order to be effective, must be received by Lender prior to 10:00 a.m., Dallas time, on the requested funding date, specifying (i) the amount of the requested Loan, and (ii) the requested funding date, which shall be a Business Day.

(b) Making of Loans. Lender shall make the amount of any requested borrowing available to Borrowers on the applicable funding date by transferring immediately available funds equal to such amount to the Designated Account; provided, however, that Lender shall not be required (nor have any obligation) to make any advance if (1) one or more of the applicable conditions precedent set forth in Article VI will not be satisfied on the requested funding date for the applicable borrowing unless such condition has been waived, (2) with respect to a request for a Revolving Loan, the requested borrowing would exceed the Availability on such funding date or, after giving effect thereto, cause the aggregate principal amount outstanding of the Revolving Loans to exceed the Revolving Credit Limit or (3) with respect to a request for a Term Loan Advance, the requested borrowing would, after giving effect thereto, cause the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loan to exceed the lesser of (i) the Term Loan Commitment or (ii) the amount equal to eighty-five percent (85%) times the Net Amount of the Term Loan Primary Collateral at such time. Lender shall make the amount of the Term Loan available to Borrowers on the Agreement Date by transferring immediately available funds equal to the Term Loan Amount to the Designated Account on such date; provided, however, that Lender shall have no obligation to make the Term Loan available to Borrowers unless all conditions precedent set forth in Article VI have been satisfied in full (or waived by Lender).

(c) Disbursement of Proceeds; Borrower Representative. Unless otherwise requested by Borrower Representative and agreed by Lender, the proceeds of each Loan, when funded, shall be disbursed by Lender to the Designated Account. Each Borrower shall have the full benefit of and access to each Loan made hereunder. Each Borrower (other than AIM) hereby designates and appoints AIM to act as Borrower Representative for and on behalf of it for purposes of requesting Loans and for all other purposes hereunder and under the other Loan Documents for which Borrower Representative acts from time to time. The agency relationship established pursuant to this Section 2.2(c) is for administrative convenience only and such agency relationship shall not extend to any matter outside the scope of the Loan Documents.

(d) Joint and Several Obligations. Each Borrower hereby agrees that the Obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are joint and several obligations of each Borrower.

LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT – Page 24

(e) No Fraudulent Conveyances. Notwithstanding any provisions of this Agreement to the contrary, it is intended that the joint and several nature of the Obligations and the Liens granted by Borrowers to secure the Obligations not constitute a “Fraudulent Conveyance” (as defined below). Consequently, the Lender and Borrowers agree that if the Obligations of a Borrower, or any Liens granted by such Borrower securing the Obligations would, but for the application of this sentence, constitute a Fraudulent Conveyance, the Obligations of such Borrower and the Liens securing such Obligations shall, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, be valid and enforceable only to the maximum extent that would not cause such Obligations or such Liens to constitute a Fraudulent Conveyance, and the Obligations of such Borrower and this Agreement shall automatically be deemed to have been amended accordingly. For purposes hereof, “Fraudulent Conveyance” means a fraudulent conveyance under Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code or a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer under the applicable provisions of any fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer law or similar law of any state, nation or other governmental unit, as in effect from time to time.

Section 2.3. Deemed Request for Revolving Loans. Each Borrower irrevocably authorizes the Lender, at its election and without necessity for request by any Borrower, to make a Revolving Loan to Borrowers in an amount equal to any amount due and owing by Borrowers pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including, without limitation, payments of principal, interest, fees and Lender Expenses, and to apply the proceeds thereof in payment of such Obligations. Any such Revolving Loans shall be secured by the Collateral and shall be included in the Obligations.

Section 2.4. Protective Advances. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default or an Event of Default, Lender may make from time to time in its discretion (but without any obligation to do so), Revolving Loans to Borrowers which Lender deems necessary or appropriate to preserve or protect the Collateral, or any portion thereof, or to enhance the likelihood of collection of any of the Obligations (“Protective Advances”). All such Revolving Loans shall be secured by the Collateral and shall be included in the Obligations.

(a) Guaranty. Each Borrower (each referred to in this Section individually as a “Co-Borrower” and collectively, as the “Co-Borrowers”) hereby agrees that it is liable for, and hereby irrevocably, absolutely and unconditionally guarantees to Lender the full and prompt payment (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) and performance of, all Obligations and other amounts owed or hereafter owing to the Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents by the other Co-Borrowers. Each Co-Borrower agrees that its guaranty obligation hereunder is a continuing guaranty of payment and performance and not of collection, that its obligations under this Section shall not be discharged until indefeasible payment and performance, in full, of the Obligations and other amounts owed or hereafter owing under this Agreement has occurred, and that its obligations under this Section shall be absolute and unconditional, irrespective of, and unaffected by:

(i) the genuineness, validity, regularity, enforceability or any future amendment of, or change in, this Agreement or any other Loan Document;

(ii) the absence of any action to enforce this Agreement (including this Section) or any other Loan Document or the waiver or consent by Lender with respect to any of the provisions hereof or thereof;

LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT – Page 25

(iii) the existence, value or condition of, or failure to perfect its security interest in or 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);

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

Each Co-Borrower shall be regarded, and shall be in the same position, as principal debtor with respect to the Obligations and other amounts guaranteed hereunder.

(b) Waivers. Each Co-Borrower expressly waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, 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 subrogation, to compel Lender to marshal assets or to proceed in respect of the Obligations and other amounts guaranteed hereunder against any other Co-Borrower, any other party or against any security for the payment and performance of the Obligations and other amounts before proceeding against, or as a condition to proceeding against, such Co-Borrower.

(c) Benefit of Guaranty. Each Co-Borrower agrees that the provisions of this Section are for the benefit of Lender and its successors, transferees, endorsees and assigns.

(d) Election of Remedies. If Lender, under Applicable Law, proceeds to realize its benefits under any of the Loan Documents giving Lender a security interest in or lien upon any Collateral, whether owned by any Co-Borrower or by any Guarantor, 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 the rights and remedies under this Section. 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 Co-Borrower or any other Guarantor, whether because of any applicable laws pertaining to “election of remedies” or the like, each Co-Borrower hereby consents to such action by Lender and waives any defense to the Lender’s enforcement of remedies based upon such action, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law. Any election of remedies that results in the denial or impairment of the right of Lender to seek a deficiency judgment against any Co-Borrower shall not impair any other Co-Borrower’s obligation to pay the full amount of the Obligations and other amounts owed or hereafter owing under this Agreement.

(e) Liability Cumulative. The liability of Co-Borrowers under this Section is in addition to and shall be cumulative with all liabilities of each Co-Borrower to Lender under this Agreement and other Loan Documents to which such Co-Borrower is a party or in respect of any Obligations or obligation of the other Co-Borrowers, without any limitation as to amount, unless the instrument or agreement evidencing or creating such other liability specifically provides to the contrary.

(f) Limitation of Liability. Notwithstanding anything in this Section to the contrary, the liability of each Co-Borrower as a Guarantor hereunder shall, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, be limited to the maximum amount of liability that can be incurred without rendering such Person’s guaranty hereunder voidable under Applicable Law relating to fraudulent transfer or fraudulent conveyance, and not for any greater amount.

LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT – Page 26

(a) Except as otherwise provided herein, all outstanding Loans shall bear interest at a per annum rate equal to the lesser of (1) the Adjusted LIBOR for such Loan and (2) the Maximum Rate.

(b) At any time when any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, effective as of the date on which such Default or Event of Default occurred and continuing for so long as any such Default or Event of Default is continuing, all Obligations shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Default Rate applicable thereto.

(c) Subject to Section 3.6, interest shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and actual days elapsed (which results in more interest being paid than if computed on the basis of a 365 day year).

(a) Commitment Fee. In consideration of Lender’s commitment hereunder to make Revolving Loans and the Term Loan, Borrowers agree to pay to the Lender a commitment fee, which amount shall be payable on the Agreement Date, in an amount equal to one-half of one percent (0.50%) multiplied by the Total Facility.

(b) Unused Line Fee. Borrowers agree to pay to Lender an unused line fee determined on a daily basis, payable on the first day of each month, in an amount equal to one-quarter of one percent (0.25%) per annum multiplied by the amount by which the Revolving Credit Limit exceeded the sum of the average daily outstanding amount of Revolving Loans during the immediately preceding calendar month, or shorter period if calculated on the Termination Date (prorated for a partial calendar month). Such fee shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual number of days elapsed. All payments on the Revolving Loans received by Lender shall be deemed to be credited to the Revolving Loans immediately upon receipt for purposes of calculating the amount payable pursuant to this Section 3.2(b).

(c) Collateral Monitoring Fee. Borrowers shall pay to Lender a monthly collateral monitoring fee in the amount of $1,000 for each calendar month, or portion thereof, during the term of this Agreement. The collateral monitoring fee for each calendar month shall be due and payable in arrears on the first day of each calendar month and on the Termination Date, and shall be prorated for any partial calendar month.

(a) Increased Costs. If any Change in Law shall (i) subject Lender to any Taxes (other than (i) Indemnified Taxes, (ii) Taxes described in clause (b) of the definition of Excluded Taxes and (iii) Connection Income Taxes) on any Loan, Loan principal, the Commitments or other obligations or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto, (ii) impose or modify any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge, assessment or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, Lender (except any reserve requirement reflected in the Adjusted LIBOR Rate) or (iii) impose on Lender any condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or any extensions of credit or commitments hereunder, and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to Lender of making, converting to, continuing or maintaining any Loans (or of maintaining its obligation to make any Loan) or to reduce any amount received or receivable by Lender under this Agreement (whether of principal, interest or any other amount), then upon written demand by Lender (which demand shall be delivered to Borrower Representative and accompanied by a statement setting forth the basis for such demand and calculation of the amount thereof in reasonable detail), Borrowers shall promptly pay to Lender such amount or amounts as will compensate Lender for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT – Page 27

(b) Capital Requirements. If Lender determines that any Change in Law affecting Lender, any lending office of Lender or Lender’s holding company regarding capital or liquidity requirements, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on Lender’s capital or on the capital of Lender’s holding company as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitment of, the Loans made by Lender, to a level below that which Lender or Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration Lender’s policies and the policies of Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the Borrowers will pay to Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate Lender or Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.

(c) Certificates for Reimbursement. Demand of Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in clauses (a) or (b) of this Section and delivered to the Borrower Representative shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrowers shall pay Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.

(d) Delay in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrowers shall not be required to compensate Lender pursuant to this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than nine months prior to the date that Lender notifies the Borrower Representative of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions, and of Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the nine-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

Section 3.4. Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, in the event that it becomes unlawful for Lender or its applicable lending office to make, maintain or fund Loans hereunder, then Lender shall promptly notify Borrower Representative thereof and Lender’s obligation to make Loans shall be suspended until such time as Lender may again make, maintain and fund Loans.

(a) Indemnified Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Credit Party under any Loan Document shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for, any present or future Indemnified Taxes, except as required by Applicable Law (which, for purposes of this Section 3.5, includes FATCA). If any Applicable Law requires the deduction or withholding of any Indemnified Tax from any payment by any Credit Party, then Credit Parties agree: (i) to timely pay the full amount of such Indemnified Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law and (ii) that the sum payable by Credit Parties shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 3.5(a)), the Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions or withholdings been made. Without duplication of any other obligation set forth in this Section 3.5 or in Section 3.3, the Credit Parties shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law, or at the option of the Lender timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by the Credit Parties to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 3.5, the Credit Parties shall deliver to the Lender the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Lender.

LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT – Page 28

(b) Indemnification by Credit Parties. Each Credit Party hereby agrees to indemnify, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, the Lender, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 3.5) payable or paid by Lender or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to Lender and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred in connection therewith), whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower Representative by the Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(c) Refunds. If Lender determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Indemnified Taxes that were paid by Credit Parties pursuant to this Section 3.5, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, it shall pay an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section 3.5 with respect to the Indemnified Taxes giving rise to such refund) to Credit Parties, net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of Lender and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided, that Credit Parties, upon request of Lender, agree to repay the amount paid to Credit Parties (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the applicable Governmental Authority, other than such penalties, interest or other charges imposed as a result of the willful misconduct or gross negligence of Lender hereunder) to Lender in the event Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 3.5(d), in no event will Lender be required to pay any amount to Credit Parties pursuant to this Section 3.5(d) if such payment would place Lender in a less favorable net after-Tax position than Lender would have been in if the Indemnified Tax giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the Credit Parties or any other Person.

(d) Survival of Obligations. Each party’s obligations under this Section 3.5 shall survive the assignment of rights by the Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Obligations under any Loan Document.

(a) Maximum Interest. If the rate of interest on the Obligations, absent the limitations set forth in this Section 3.6, would at any time exceed the Maximum Rate, then the actual rate of interest shall be the Maximum Rate, and, if in the future, the interest rate would otherwise be less than the Maximum Rate, then the interest rate shall remain at the Maximum Rate until such time as the amount of interest paid hereunder equals the amount of interest which would have been paid if the same had not been limited by the Maximum Rate. In the event that, upon payment in full of the Obligations, the total amount of interest paid or accrued under the terms of this Agreement is less than the total amount of interest which would, but for this Section 3.6, have been paid or accrued if the interest rate otherwise provided by this Agreement had at all times been in effect, then Borrowers shall, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, pay to Lender an amount equal to (a) the lesser of (i) the amount of interest which would have been paid or accrued if the Maximum Rate had, at all times, been in effect and (ii) the amount of interest which would have been paid or accrued had the interest rate otherwise set forth in this Agreement, at all times, been in effect, less (b) the amount of interest actually paid or accrued under this Agreement.

LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT – Page 29

(b) Controlling Limitation. Lender, each Borrower and each other Credit Party hereby acknowledge, agree, and declare that it is its intention to expressly comply with all Applicable Laws in respect of limitations on the amount or rate of interest that can legally be contracted for, charged or received under or in connection with the Loan Documents. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Document (even if any such provision expressly declares that it controls all other provisions of the Loan Documents), in no contingency or event whatsoever shall the amount of interest (including the aggregate of all charges, fees, benefits, or other compensation which constitutes interest under any Applicable Law) under the Loan Documents paid by Borrowers or any other Credit Party, received by Lender, agreed to be paid by Borrowers or any other Credit Party, or requested or demanded to be paid by Lender exceed the Maximum Rate, and all provisions of the Loan Documents in respect of the contracting for, charging, or receiving compensation for the use, forbearance, or detention of money shall be limited as provided by this Section 3.6. In the event any such interest is paid to Lender by Borrowers or any other Credit Party in an amount or at a rate which would exceed the Maximum Rate, then, notwithstanding any entry on Lender’s books otherwise, such excess shall conclusively be deemed to be automatically applied to any unpaid amount of the Obligations other than interest, in inverse order of maturity, or if the amount of such excess exceeds said unpaid amount, such excess shall be refunded to Borrowers or such other applicable Credit Party. All interest paid, or agreed to be paid, by Borrowers or any other Credit Party, or taken, reserved, or received by Lender shall be amortized, prorated, spread, and allocated in respect of the Obligations throughout the full term of this Agreement. Notwithstanding any provision contained in any of the Loan Documents, or in any other related documents executed pursuant hereto, the Lender shall not be entitled to charge, receive, take, reserve, collect, or apply as interest any amount which, together with all other interest under the Loan Documents, would result in a rate of interest under the Loan Documents in excess of the Maximum Rate and, in the event the Lender ever charges, receives, takes, reserves, collects, or applies any amount in respect of Borrowers or any other Credit Party that otherwise would, together with all other interest under the Loan Documents, be in excess of the Maximum Rate, such amount shall automatically be deemed to be applied in reduction of the unpaid principal balance of the Obligations other than interest and, if the principal balance thereof is paid in full, any remaining excess shall forthwith be refunded to the Borrowers or such other applicable Credit Party. Each Credit Party and the Lender shall, to the maximum extent permitted under any Applicable Law, (i) characterize any non-principal payment as a standby fee, commitment fee, prepayment charge, delinquency charge, expense, or reimbursement for a third-party expense rather than as interest and (ii) exclude prepayments, acceleration, and the effect thereof. Nothing in any Loan Document shall be construed or so operate as to require or obligate Borrowers or any other Credit Party to pay any interest, fees, costs, or charges greater than is permitted by any Applicable Law. Subject to the foregoing, each Credit Party hereby agrees that the actual effective rate of interest from time to time existing under the Loan Documents, including all amounts agreed to by the Credit Parties pursuant to and in accordance with the Loan Documents which may be deemed to be interest under any Applicable Law, shall be deemed to be a rate which is agreed to and stipulated by the Credit Parties and the Lender in accordance with Applicable Law.

LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT – Page 30

Section 4.1. Interest. Accrued interest on the Loans shall be due and payable in arrears on the first calendar day of each month and on the Termination Date.

Section 4.2. Prepayment; Mandatory Payment of Deficiencies; Excess Cash Flow Repayment of Term Loan.

(a) Borrowers may prepay Loans at any time. Any voluntary prepayment under this Section 4.2 of less than all of the outstanding principal of the Term Loan shall be applied to the principal of the Term Loan in the inverse order of maturity. Borrowers promise to pay to Lender on demand, the amount, if any, at any time, by which (i) the unpaid principal balance of the Revolving Loans exceeds the lesser of the Borrowing Base or the Revolving Credit Limit at such time, and (ii) the unpaid principal balance of the Term Loan at such time exceeds an amount equal to eighty-five percent (85%) times the Net Amount of the Term Loan Primary Collateral at such time.

(b) For so long as the Term Loan remains outstanding, if Excess Cash Flow for any Fiscal Year of Parent and its consolidated subsidiaries is a positive number, beginning with the Fiscal Year ending December 31, 2020, Borrowers shall pay to Lender, for application to the Term Loan, an amount equal to the lesser of (i) twenty-five percent (25%) of the Excess Cash Flow for such Fiscal Year and (ii) the outstanding principal balance of the Term Loan. Such payment shall be made to Lender and applied to the outstanding principal balance of the Term Loan, on or prior to April 15 of the Fiscal Year immediately following such Fiscal Year.

(a) The principal of the Term Loan shall be payable to Lender in equal monthly installments on each Installment Payment Date in an amount equal to $45,238 (plus interest payable pursuant to Section 4.1).

(i) Borrowers shall pay to Lender in full (1) the outstanding principal balance, if any, of the Revolving Loans plus all unpaid accrued interest thereon, and (2) the outstanding principal balance, if any, of the Term Loan plus all unpaid accrued interest thereon;

(ii) If the Termination Date is prior to the Maturity Date, Borrowers shall pay to Lender the amount required by Section 4.5; and

(iii) Borrowers shall pay to Lender all unpaid Lender Expenses and all other Obligations payable under the Loan Documents.

(c) If the credit facility for Revolving Loans hereunder is terminated for any reason, Borrower shall immediately pay to Lender, in full, the outstanding Term Loan (plus all unpaid accrued interest thereon).

Section 4.4. Mandatory Prepayment in Respect of Certain Events. All proceeds or other cash payments received by any Borrower in respect of a Distribution to such Borrower (other than Distributions to such Borrower made by another Credit Party) or in respect of the sale, lease or other disposition by any Borrower of any asset (other than the sale of Inventory in the ordinary course of business or the sale of Equipment permitted under Section 9.8(c)(ii)), shall be promptly paid to Lender for application to the Obligations in accordance with Section 4.7 (unless, with respect to any sale of Equipment, such proceeds are reinvested in accordance with Section 9.8(c)).

LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT – Page 31

Section 4.5. Early Termination; Prepayment Penalty. Each Borrower may at any time prepay in full the Obligations and terminate the commitment of Lender to make Loans hereunder (it being understood that, if Borrowers terminate the Lender’s Commitment to make Revolving Loans, then the Term Loan and all other Obligations shall be due and payable in full on such date of termination). Each Borrower acknowledges that occurrence of the Termination Date and prepayment of all outstanding Obligations prior to the Maturity Date would result in the loss by Lender of benefits under this Agreement and that the damages incurred by Lender as a result thereof would be difficult and impractical to ascertain. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, if for any reason the Termination Date occurs on any date prior to the Maturity Date, Borrowers shall pay to Lender, in addition to all other amounts payable under the Loan Documents, a prepayment penalty, calculated as of the Termination Date, equal to the product of (a) the sum of (i) the Revolving Credit Limit plus (ii) the outstanding principal amount of the Term Loan times (b) one percent (1.0%), which amount Borrower and Lender each acknowledges to be the best estimate of the amount necessary to fairly and reasonably compensate Lender for its loss resulting from occurrence of the Termination Date and prepayment of all outstanding Loans prior to the Maturity Date.

Section 4.6. General Payment Provisions. All payments to be made by Borrowers under the Loan Documents shall be made without set-off, recoupment, or counterclaim. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by Borrowers shall be made in Dollars and in immediately available funds to Lender at its address set forth in Section 13.6 or to the Lender Account no later than 2:00 p.m. on the date specified herein. Any payment received by Lender later than 2:00 p.m. shall be deemed to have been received on the following Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue. Whenever any payment is due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be due on the following Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of interest or fees, as the case may be.

Section 4.7. Application. All payments not relating to amounts due on Loans (including interest) or specific fees, and all proceeds of Accounts or other Collateral received and applied by Lender during any time when no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, shall be applied first, to pay to Lender any Lender Expenses then due; second, to interest due and payable on the Revolving Loans; third, to interest due and payable on the Term Loan; fourth, to principal of the Revolving Loans; fifth, to principal due and payable on the Term Loan, if any; sixth, to the payment of any other outstanding Obligations then due and payable, in such manner and order as Lender determines in its discretion; and seventh, to the Borrowers by deposit in the Designated Account. At any time that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, all payments and collections received by Lender and all proceeds of Collateral, shall be applied, first, to pay to Lender any Lender Expenses then due; second, to interest due and payable in respect of the remaining Obligations; third, on a pro rata basis, to pay or prepay principal of the Loans, in such manner and order as Lender determines in its discretion; and fourth to the payment of any other Obligations, in such manner and order as Lender determines in its discretion. Lender shall have the continuing right, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, to apply and reverse and reapply any application, subject to the terms of this Agreement.

Section 4.8. Reinstatement. If after receipt and application of any payment or proceeds any such application is invalidated, set aside, determined to be void or voidable for any reason, then the Obligations or part thereof intended to be satisfied by such application shall be revived and continued and this Agreement shall continue in full force as if such payment or proceeds had not been received by Lender and the Borrowers shall be liable to pay to Lender and each Borrower hereby does indemnify Lender and defend and hold Lender harmless in, an amount equal to the amount of such application. The provisions of this Section 4.8 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT – Page 32

Section 4.9. Account Stated. Lender will provide to Borrower Representative a monthly statement of all Loans, payments thereon, and other transactions pursuant to this Agreement. Such statement shall be deemed correct, accurate, and binding on Borrowers and an account stated, subject to reversals and reapplications made as provided in Section 4.8 and corrections of errors discovered by Lender, unless Borrower Representative notifies Lender in writing to the contrary within thirty (30) days after such statement is rendered. In the event a timely written notice of objections is given by Borrower Representative, only the items to which exception is expressly made will be considered to be disputed.

Section 5.1. Security Interest. Each Credit Party hereby pledges, assigns to and grants to Lender, as security for the payment and performance of such Credit Party’s Obligations, a continuing security interest, lien and collateral assignment in all of such Credit Party’s right, title and interest in and to all of the following, in each case both now owned and hereafter acquired by such Credit Party: all Accounts, Inventory, Equipment, other goods, Machinery, fixtures, General Intangibles, Payment Intangibles, Chattel Paper, Letter of Credit Rights, Supporting Obligations, Proprietary Rights, Instruments, promissory notes, Documents and documents of title, Investment Property, Deposit Accounts, Securities Accounts, Commercial Tort Claims, money, cash, cash equivalents, securities and other personal property of any kind (whether held directly or indirectly by such Credit Party), all books and records, whether in tangible or intangible form, all other assets, if any, and all accessions to, substitutions for and replacements, products and proceeds (including all “proceeds” as defined in Section 9.102 of the UCC and, including all dividends, distributions and other income from such Credit Party’s Collateral, collections thereon or distributions with respect thereto) of any of the foregoing. Lender’s Liens shall continue in full force and effect in all Collateral until all Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations) have been indefeasibly and fully paid and all commitments of the Lender under this Agreement have been terminated. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, in no event shall the Collateral include, or the security interest in this Section 5.1 attach to, any property or assets that constitute Excluded Property, but only for so long as such property or assets constitute Excluded Property.

Section 5.2. Perfection and Protection of Lender’s Security Interest. Lender’s Liens at all times shall be and remain first, prior and senior to any other interests in the Collateral, except those Permitted Liens which are expressly permitted to be prior to Lender’s Liens in accordance with the definition thereof and except as may be expressly agreed otherwise by Lender in writing. Credit Parties shall take all action reasonably requested by Lender at any time to perfect, maintain, protect and enforce Lender’s Liens and to ensure that Lender’s Liens at all times are first, prior and senior to any other interests in the Collateral, except those Permitted Liens which are expressly permitted to be prior to Lender’s Liens in accordance with the definition thereof. Without limiting the foregoing, unless Lender agrees otherwise in writing, Credit Parties will deliver to Lender the originals of all Instruments, Documents and Chattel Paper, duly endorsed or assigned to Lender without restriction, and all certificates of title covering any portion of the Collateral for which certificates of title have been issued (other than any motor vehicle having a value less than $5,000), together with executed applications for corrected certificates of title, notations of lien and other such documentation as may be requested by Lender. If at any time any Collateral or any books and records relating to Borrowers’ Accounts or Inventory or Equipment are located on any leased premises not owned by a Borrower or any other Credit Party or any Premises owned by any Credit Party that are subject to a mortgage lien, then the applicable Credit Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain a Collateral Access Agreement from the record owner or mortgagee thereof (it being understood that, without a Collateral Access Agreement, Accounts and Inventory of the Borrowers will not be eligible for inclusion in the Borrowing Base in accordance with the definitions of Eligible Account and Eligible Inventory and Equipment of the Borrowers will not be eligible for inclusion as Eligible Equipment unless Lender in its discretion has established a reserve in the amount of at least three months’ rent). If any Collateral is at any time in the possession or control of any warehouseman, bailee, processor or any other Person other than a Credit Party, then Borrower Representative shall notify Lender thereof and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain a Collateral Access Agreement from such Person (it being understood that, without a Collateral Access Agreement, Accounts and Inventory of the Borrowers will not be eligible for inclusion in the Borrowing Base in accordance with the definitions of Eligible Account and Eligible Inventory and Equipment of the Borrowers will not be eligible for inclusion as Eligible Equipment). If at any time any of Credit Parties’ Equipment that is necessary or otherwise material (as determined by Lender in its Permitted Discretion) to the manufacturing of any Borrower’s Inventory is subject to a Lien of a third party, then such Borrower shall obtain a Collateral Access Agreement and/or Subordination Agreement from such Person.

LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT – Page 33

Section 5.3. Collateral Proceeds Management. All collections and proceeds of Collateral shall be subject to an express trust for the benefit of Lender and shall be subject to this Section 5.3.

(a) Borrowers have established Deposit Account Nos. 8026224578, 8026583474 and 8026326793 (such Deposit Accounts and any other Deposit Account and any other Deposit Account replacing any or all such Deposit Accounts with Lender’s consent, including pursuant to Section 5.3(c) below, together with any related lockbox, collectively, the “Collection Account”) with PNC. All collections and amounts deposited into or held in the Collection Account shall be swept to the Lender Account on a daily basis and no Credit Party shall have any access to any funds therein. The Collection Account shall at all times be subject to a Control Agreement or, if the Collection Account is held by Lender, otherwise be subject to Lender’s “control” under the UCC. Any such Control Agreement shall provide, among other things, for Lender’s “control” under the UCC over the Collection Account and further that (i) all items of payment received in such account are received by such bank for the Lender, (ii) such bank has no rights of setoff or recoupment or any other claim against such items (other than for payment of its service fees and other charges directly related to the administration of such account, returned or charged back items, reversals, cancellation of payment orders and other electronic fund transfers or other corrections, adjustments or overdrafts), (iii) no Credit Party shall have access to any funds therein and (iv) such bank will deposit all collections and amounts therein to the Lender Account on a daily basis.

(b) Schedule 7.19 lists all of Credit Parties’ Deposit Accounts and Securities Accounts as of the date hereof (with the Collection Account being listed in Part A thereof, Excluded Accounts being listed in Part C thereof and all other Deposit Accounts and Securities Accounts listed in Part B thereof). All Deposit Accounts and Securities Accounts listed or required to be listed in Part B of Schedule 7.19 (as updated pursuant to the terms of Section 7.19), other than the Permitted Citibank Accounts, are and shall at all times be subject to a Control Agreement or, if such Deposit Accounts and/or Securities Accounts are held with Lender, shall otherwise be subject to Lender’s “control” under the UCC (such accounts so subject to a Control Agreement or otherwise under Lender’s “control” under the UCC, collectively the “Controlled Accounts”). Each Control Agreement in respect of a Controlled Account shall provide, among other things, for Lender’s “control” under the UCC over such accounts (allowing the applicable Credit Party access to funds therein until such time as an activation notice is sent to the applicable bank by Lender). Lender hereby agrees that (i) it will not send an activation notice with respect to any Controlled Account subject to a Control Agreement unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and (ii) it will not block Credit Parties’ access to any Controlled Account held by Lender unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing (but, for the avoidance of doubt, it is expressly agreed that Lender can block Credit Parties’ access to any Controlled Account after the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default).

LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT – Page 34

(c) Within 60 days following the Agreement Date (the “Cash Management Transition Date”), each Credit Party shall (i) establish and maintain at Lender all cash management services, including a new Collection Account, all Controlled Accounts and all lockbox services and (ii) close all Deposit Accounts (other than the Permitted Citibank Accounts) and Securities Accounts not maintained with Lender. Such cash management services maintained by each Credit Party with Lender shall be of a type and on terms reasonably satisfactory to Lender. On the Cash Management Transition Date, Credit Parties shall deliver an updated Schedule 7.19 to Lender.

(d) No Credit Party will use, dispose, withhold or otherwise exercise dominion over any proceeds of Collateral. Borrowers shall instruct all Account Debtors to send all payments in respect of Accounts to the Collection Account or the related lock-box. At all times on and after Borrowers borrow the initial Loan hereunder, if a Borrower or any other Credit Party at any time receives any proceeds of Collateral, it shall receive such proceeds as Lender’s trustee and shall immediately (and in any event within one (1) Business Day of such receipt) deliver such proceeds to Lender in their original form duly endorsed in blank or to the order of Lender.

(e) All payments received by Lender pursuant to Section 5.3(a) or Section 5.3(d) shall be credited to the Obligations in accordance with Section 4.7, immediately upon receipt (conditional upon final collection) after allowing one (1) Business Day for collection, provided, that such payments shall be deemed to be credited to such Obligations immediately upon receipt for purposes of determining Availability and calculating the unused line fee pursuant to Section 3.2(b). Any payments received by Lender pursuant to Section 5.3(a) or Section 5.3(d) that are to be distributed to Borrowers pursuant to Section 4.7 shall be deposited in the Designated Account within one Business Day of receipt of good funds by Lender.

Section 5.4. Examinations; Inspections; Verifications. Lender shall have the right at any time without hindrance or delay to conduct field examinations (including through third party field examiners) to inspect the Collateral and to inspect, audit and copy Credit Parties’ books and records relating to the Collateral or Credit Parties’ business. Credit Parties agree to pay all fees and expenses of such third party field examiners and Lender’s customary fees and disbursements relating to such field examinations and the preparation of reports thereof. Lender is authorized to discuss Credit Parties’ affairs with any Person, including without limitation employees of any Credit Party, as Lender may deem necessary in relation to the Collateral, Credit Parties’ business or financial condition or Lender’s rights under the Loan Documents. Lender shall have full access to all records available to Credit Parties from any credit reporting service, bureau or similar service and shall have the right to examine and make copies of any such records. Lender may exhibit a copy of this Agreement to such service and such service shall be entitled to rely on the provisions hereof in providing access to Lender as provided herein. If requested by Lender, Credit Parties will deliver to Lender any authorization or consent necessary for Lender to obtain records from any such service.

Section 5.5. Appraisal. At least two times per year, and more frequently in Lender’s discretion at any time including without limitation any time when a Default or an Event of Default exists, Lender shall have the right, at Borrowers’ expense, conduct appraisals, or updates of appraisals, of Inventory, prepared by an appraiser acceptable to Lender and on a basis satisfactory to the Lender.

Section 5.6. Right to Cure. Lender may pay any amount or do any act required of Credit Parties hereunder or under any other Loan Document in order to preserve, protect, maintain or enforce the Collateral or Lender’s Liens, and which Credit Parties fail to pay or do, including payment of any license, fee, maintenance costs, judgment lien, insurance premium, charge, landlord’s claim or bailee’s claim relating to the Collateral or Lender’s Liens. All payments that Lender makes under this Section 5.6 and all costs, fees and expenses that Lender pays or incurs in connection therewith shall be paid or reimbursed to Lender on demand. Any action taken by Lender under this Section 5.6 shall not waive any Default or Event of Default or any rights of Lender with respect thereto.

Section 5.7. Power of Attorney. Each Credit Party hereby irrevocably appoints Lender as its agent and attorney-in-fact to take any action necessary to preserve and protect the Collateral and Lender’s interests under the Loan Documents or to sign and file any document necessary to perfect Lender’s Liens, in each case, to the fullest extent permitted under Applicable Law. Without limiting the foregoing:

(a) Lender shall have the right at any time to take any of the following actions, in its own name or in the name of any Credit Party, whether or not an Event of Default is in existence: (i) make written or verbal requests for verification of the validity, amount or any other matter relating to any Collateral from any Person, (ii) endorse a Credit Party’s name on checks, instruments or other evidences of payment on Collateral, (iii) sign and file, in a Credit Party’s name or in Lender’s name as secured party, any proof of claim or other document in any bankruptcy proceedings of any Account Debtor or obligor on Collateral, (iv) access, copy or utilize any information related to the Collateral, recorded or contained in any computer or data processing equipment or system maintained by a Credit Party in respect of the Collateral and (v) open mail addressed to a Credit Party and take possession of checks or other proceeds of Collateral for application in accordance with this Agreement.

(c) Each Credit Party authorizes Lender at any time and from time to time to file, transmit, or communicate, as applicable, financing statements and amendments naming such Credit Party as debtor thereon (i) describing such Credit Party’s Collateral as “all personal property of debtor” or “all assets of debtor” or words of similar effect, (ii) describing such Credit Party’s Collateral as being of equal or lesser scope or with greater detail, or (iii) that contain any information required by part 5 of Article 9 of the UCC for the sufficiency or filing office acceptance.

(d) The powers of attorney granted under this Section 5.7 are coupled with an interest and are irrevocable until all Obligations (other than contingent indemnification Obligations) have been indefeasibly paid in full and all commitments of Lender under this Agreement have been terminated. The powers of attorney granted under this Section 5.7 are durable and should not be affected by the subsequent disability or incapacity of any Credit Party. Costs, fees and expenses incurred by Lender in connection with any of such actions by Lender, including attorneys’ fees and out-of-pocket expenses, shall be reimbursed to Lender on demand.

LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT – Page 36

Section 5.8. Preservation of Lender’s Rights. To the extent allowed by Applicable Law, none of Lender, its Affiliates nor any of its officers, directors, stockholders, members, managers, employees or agents shall be liable or responsible in any way for the safekeeping of any Collateral or for any act or failure to act with respect to the Collateral, or for any loss or damage thereto or any diminution in the value thereof, or for any act by any other Person, except to the extent of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of Lender (as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction). In the case of any Instruments and Chattel Paper included within the Collateral, Lender shall have no duty or obligation to preserve rights against prior parties. The Obligations shall not be affected by any failure of Lender to take any steps to perfect its security interests or to collect or realize upon the Collateral, nor shall loss of or damage to the Collateral release any Credit Party from any of the Obligations.

Section 5.9. Deficiency. In the event that the proceeds of any sale, collection or realization of or upon the Collateral by Lender are insufficient to pay all Obligations in full, each Credit Party shall be liable for the deficiency, together with interest thereon as provided in this Agreement, together with the costs of collection and the reasonable fees of any attorneys employed by the Lender to collect such deficiency.

Section 11.2. Collateral. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Lender shall have, in addition to all other rights of Lender, the rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC. At any time when an Event of Default is in existence: (i) Lender may notify Account Debtors to make payment directly to Lender or to such address as Lender may specify, and enforce, settle or adjust Accounts, General Intangibles or Chattel Paper with Account Debtors or obligors thereon for amounts and upon terms which Lender considers appropriate, and in such case, Lender will credit the Obligations with only the net amounts received by Lender in payment thereof after deducting all Lender Expenses incurred or expended in connection therewith; (ii) Lender may take possession of the Collateral and keep it on Credit Parties’ premises or remove all or any part of it to another location selected by Lender; (iii) on request by Lender, Credit Parties will, at Credit Parties’ cost, assemble the Collateral and make it available to Lender at a place reasonably convenient to Lender; and (iv) Lender may, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, sell or otherwise dispose of any Collateral at public or private sales, for cash, upon credit or otherwise, at such prices and upon such terms as Lender deems appropriate. Unless the Collateral is perishable or threatens to decline speedily in value or is of a type customarily sold on a recognized market, Lender will give the appropriate Credit Party reasonable notice of the time and place of any public sale thereof or of the time after which any private sale or any other intended disposition thereof is to be made. For this purpose, it is agreed that at least ten (10) days’ notice of the time of sale or other intended disposition of the Collateral delivered in accordance with Section 13.6 shall be deemed to be reasonable notice in conformity with the UCC. Lender may adjourn or otherwise reschedule any public sale by announcement at the time and place specified in the notice of such public sale, and such sale may be made at the time and place as so announced without necessity of further notice. Lender shall not be obligated to sell or dispose of any Collateral, notwithstanding any prior notice of intended disposition. If any Collateral is sold on terms other than payment in full at the time of sale, no credit shall be given in reduction of the Obligations until Lender receives payment in cash, and if any such buyer defaults in payment, Lender may resell the Collateral without further notice to Credit Parties. In the event Lender seeks to take possession of all or any portion of the Collateral by judicial process, each Credit Party waives the posting of any bond, surety or security with respect thereto which might otherwise be required. Each Credit Party agrees that Lender has no obligation to preserve rights to the Collateral or marshal any Collateral for the benefit of any Person. Lender is hereby granted a license or other right to use, without charge, each Credit Party’s Proprietary Rights in completing production of, advertising or selling any Collateral, and each Credit Party’s rights under all licenses shall inure to Lender’s benefit for such purpose. The proceeds of any sale or disposition of Collateral shall be applied to the Obligations as set forth in Section 4.7. The rights and remedies of the Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be cumulative. The Lender shall have all other rights and remedies not inconsistent herewith as provided under the UCC, other Applicable Law or in equity.

LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT – Page 62

Section 11.3. Injunctive Relief. All cash proceeds of Collateral from time to time existing, including without limitation collections and payments of Accounts, whether consisting of cash, checks or other similar items, at all times shall be subject to an express trust for the benefit of Lender. All such proceeds shall be subject to Lender’s Liens. Except as may be specifically allowed otherwise by this Agreement (including use of cash not in violation of the terms hereof distributed to Borrowers by Lender pursuant to Section 4.7), Credit Parties are expressly prohibited from using, spending, retaining or otherwise exercising any dominion over such proceeds. Each Credit Party acknowledges and agrees that an action for damages against a Credit Party for any breach of such prohibitions shall not be an adequate remedy at law. In the event of any such breach, each Credit Party agrees to the fullest extent allowed by law that Lender shall be entitled to injunctive relief to restrain such breach and require compliance with the requirements of this Agreement.

Section 11.4. Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Lender is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law to set off and apply any and all cash and any and all deposits (whether general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held, and any obligations at any time owing, by Lender to or for the credit or the account of any Borrower or other Credit Party against any Obligations held by Lender, irrespective of whether or not Lender shall have made any demand under the Loan Documents and regardless of whether such Obligations are contingent or unmatured. The rights of Lender under this Section 11.4 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that Lender may have. Lender agrees to notify the Borrower Representative promptly after any such setoff and application; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.

Section 12.1. Term and Termination. Upon the effective date of termination of this Agreement for any reason, Lender’s obligation to make Loans shall automatically terminate and all Obligations shall become immediately due and payable in full. Notwithstanding the termination of this Agreement, until all Obligations (other than contingent indemnity obligations) are indefeasibly paid in cash and performed in full, Credit Parties shall remain bound by the terms of this Agreement and Lender shall retain all rights and remedies under the Loan Documents.

Except for the opt-out provision of Section 346.004 thereof, the provisions of Chapter 346 of the Texas Finance Code (regulating certain revolving credit loans and revolving tri-party accounts) shall not be applicable to this Agreement, any other Loan Document or the Loans.

In the event any amount from time to time applied in reduction of the Obligations is subsequently set aside, avoided, declared invalid or recovered by any Credit Party or any trustee or in bankruptcy, or in the event the Lender is otherwise required to refund or repay any such amount pursuant to any Applicable Law, then the Obligations shall automatically, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, be deemed to be revived and increased to the extent of such amount and the same shall continue to be secured by the Collateral as if such amount had not been so applied.

(a) Lender may at any time sell, assign, delegate or otherwise transfer all or part of the rights and duties of Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to any of the following Persons (an “Assignee”): (i) any Affiliate of the Lender or (ii) any other Person with the prior written consent of the Borrowers (which consent may be given by Borrower Representative on behalf of all Borrowers and shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided, however, Borrowers shall be deemed to have given their consent unless they (or Borrower Representative, on behalf of all Borrowers) shall object thereto by written notice to the Lender within five (5) Business Days after notice thereof has actually been delivered by the Lender to Borrower Representative); provided, that the consent of Borrowers shall not be required under this subclause (ii) if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or for any such sale, assignment or transfer in connection with a sale of all or substantially all of the assets of Lender or all or substantially all of the loans or asset based loans of Lender. Subject to the provisions of Section 13.14, each Credit Party hereby authorizes Lender to disseminate any information it has pertaining to the Obligations, including without limitation, complete and current credit information on the Credit Parties and any of their principals to any Assignee or prospective Assignee. Each Credit Party hereby acknowledges and agrees that any assignment will give rise to a direct obligation of Borrowers and each other Credit Party to the Assignee and that the Assignee shall be considered to be a Lender hereunder. Except as otherwise provided herein, Lender shall be relieved of any of its obligations hereunder as a result of any sale, assignment, delegation or other transfer of all or any part of the Loans or other Obligations owed to it. Lender may furnish any information concerning Credit Parties from time to time to Assignees and participants and to any Affiliate of Lender or its parent company.

(b) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents to the contrary, Lender may pledge, or grant a security interest in, all or any portion of its rights and other obligations under or relating to Loans under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to secure obligations of the Lender, including, without limitation, any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Lender; provided that, no such pledge or grant of a security interest shall release the Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document.

LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT – Page 67

(c) Lender shall have the right at any time, without the consent of Borrowers, to sell one or more participant rights to any Person in all or any part of its Commitments, Loans or in any other Obligation. The holder of any such participation shall not be entitled to require Lender to take or omit to take any action hereunder or under the other Loan Documents except with respect to any amendment, modification or waiver that would extend the final scheduled maturity of any Loan in which such participant is participating, or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest or fees thereon (except in connection with a waiver of applicability of any post default increase in interest rates) or reduce the principal amount thereof, or increase the amount of the participant’s participation over the amount thereof then in effect (it being understood that a waiver of any Default or Event of Default or of a mandatory reduction in the Commitment shall not constitute a change in the terms of such participation, and that an increase in any Commitment or Loan shall be permitted without the consent of any participant if the participant’s participation is not increased as a result thereof). Borrowers agree that each participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.3 and 3.5 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein) to the same extent as if it were Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 13.13(a); provided that such participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 3.3 or 3.5 with respect to any participation than such participating Lender would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a change in Applicable Law that occurs after the participant acquired the applicable participation.

(a) Each Credit Party agrees, and agrees to cause each of its Affiliates, (i) not to transmit or disclose any provision of any Loan Document to any Person (other than (1) to such Credit Party’s employees, auditors, advisors, consultants, Affiliates and counsel, (2) as may be required by statute judicial decision, or judicial or administrative order, rule or regulations, (3) as may be agreed in advance by Credit Parties and Lender or as requested or required by any Governmental Authority pursuant to any subpoena or other process, (4) as to any such information that is or becomes generally available to the public (other than as a result of a prohibited disclosure by any Credit Party) or (5) in connection with any litigation or other adversary proceeding involving parties hereto which such litigation or adversary proceeding involves claims related to the rights or duties of such parties under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents) without Lender’s prior written consent, (ii) to inform all Persons of the confidential nature of the Loan Documents and to direct them not to disclose the same to any other Person and to require each of them to be bound by these provisions. Each Credit Party agrees to submit to Lender and Lender reserves the right to review and approve all materials that such Credit Party or any of its Affiliates prepares that contain Lender’s name or describe or refer to any Loan Document, any of the terms thereof or any of the transactions contemplated thereby. No Credit Party shall, and shall not permit any of its Affiliates to, use the Lender’s name (or the name of any of its Affiliates) in connection with any of its business operations, including without limitation, advertising, marketing or press releases or such other similar purposes, without the Lender’s prior written consent (except as required by Applicable Law). Nothing contained in any Loan Document is intended to permit or authorize any Credit Party or any of its Affiliates to contract on behalf of the Lender.

(b) Lender agrees that material, non-public information regarding the Credit Parties, their operations, assets, and existing and contemplated business plans shall be treated by Lender in a confidential manner, and shall not be disclosed by Lender to Persons who are not parties to this Agreement, except: (i) to attorneys for and other advisors, accountants, auditors, and consultants to the Lender, (ii) to Subsidiaries and Affiliates of the Lender, (iii) as may be required by statute, judicial decision, or judicial or administrative order, rule, or regulation, (iv) as may be agreed to in advance by the Credit Parties or as requested or required by any Governmental Authority pursuant to any subpoena or other legal process, (v) as to any such information that is or becomes generally available to the public (other than as a result of prohibited disclosure by the Lender), (vi) in connection with any assignment, participation or pledge of the Lender’s interest under this Agreement, and (vii) in connection with any litigation or other adversary proceeding involving parties hereto which such litigation or adversary proceeding involves claims related to the rights or duties of such parties under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Credit Party hereby expressly authorizes the Lender to use the respective Credit Party’s name and logo in tombstone advertisements and press releases regarding this transaction, provided that the Borrower Representative has had a chance to review and approve the contents of such tombstone or press release, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT - SCHEDULE 6.1

LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT - SCHEDULE 7.1

In March 2015, the Company acquired The Sterling Engineering Corporation (“Sterling”) by causing it to merge into a newly formed subsidiary, SEC Acquisition Corp., a Connecticut corporation. In connection with the merger, the name of the subsidiary was changed to “The Sterling Engineering Corporation.”

LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT - SCHEDULE 7.2

1. CPI Aerostructures, Inc. vs. Air Industries Group, et. al. Index No. 653397/2018E

On December 20, 2018, pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement dated as of March 21, 2018 (“SPA”), Air completed the sale of the shares of its subsidiary, Welding Metallurgy, Inc. to CPI Aerostructures.

On March 19, 2019, in accordance with the procedures set forth in the SPA, the Company received a notice from CPI claiming that the working capital deficit used to compute the purchase price was understated. The issue of the amount of the working capital deficit was submitted to BDO USA, LLP (“BDO”), acting as an expert, and it issued a report dated September 3, 2019, where it determined that the amount of the working capital deficit was approximately $4,145,870. On September 9, 2019 the Company received a demand from CPI for payment of such amount. The Company advised CPI that the determination of BDO is void because, among other things, BDO exceeded the scope of its authority as set forth in the SPA.

On September 27, 2019, CPI filed a notice of motion in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York, against the Company seeking, among other things, an order of specific performance requiring delivery of the funds deposited in escrow, together with the balance of the working capital deficit which it claimed, and a judgment against the Company in the amount of approximately $4,200,000 of which $2,000,000 would be satisfied by delivery of the funds in escrow. In its motion, CPI requested oral argument before the court.

On October 7, 2019, the Company agreed to the release of $619,316 of the funds held in escrow in respect of claims related to the working capital deficit not related to the value of WMI’s inventory. As a result of this release, approximately $1,400,000 remains in escrow.

On November 10, 2019, Air Industries filed its opposition to CPI’s Motion and a Cross-Motion to vacate the BDO Determination due to BDO’s failure to act within the scope of its authority and apply the standard prescribed in the SPA, or, in the alternative, seeking limited discovery and other relief. In addition, in its Memorandum Air argued that monetary damages are not an appropriate remedy to be awarded on CPI’s motion in that it was required to commence a new action which would have allowed for discovery and that, in all events, the maximum adjustment permitted by the SPA was $2 million.

On October 31, 2019, CPI filed its reply to Air’s Opposition and Cross Motion.

LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT - SCHEDULE 7.7

On October 2, 2018, Contract Pharmacal Corp. commenced an action, relating to a Sublease entered into in May 2018 with respect to the property the company occupied at 110 Plant Avenue, Hauppauge, New York. The property was to be delivered to CPCl once it was vacated by Welding Metallurgy after its purchase by CPI. In its complaint CPC initially sought damages of approximately $2,500,000 as a result of the Company’s decision to allow CPC to occupy a portion of the property, as opposed to the entire property, when CPI made such portion available. In a conference before the Court CPC reduced its demand to $600,000. The Company disputes the validity of the claims asserted by CPC and believes it has meritorious defenses to those claims. In particular, the Company argues that the lease was not to commence until all the space was available and that it should not be penalized for making a portion of the space available to CPC when it was vacated by CPI. The Company recently submitted a motion in opposition to CPC’s motion for summary judgement.

Peter Cook, a former employee of the Company commenced an action against, among others, Rechler Equity B-2, LLC and Air Industries Group, in the Supreme Court State of New York, Suffolk County, seeking compensation in an undetermined amount for injuries suffered while leaving the premises then occupied by Welding Metallurgy, Inc. Rechler Equity B-2, LLC served a Third Party Complaint in this action against Air Industries Group, Inc. and Welding Metallurgy, Inc. The defense of this action has been undertaken by the Company’s insurer. The Company believes it is not liable to Mr. Cook and any amount it might have to pay would be covered by insurance.

Westbury Park Associates, LLC commenced an action on or about January 11, 2017 against Air in NYS Supreme Court, County of Suffolk, seeking the recovery of past rent arrears, and for an unspecified sum representing all additional rent due under an alleged commercial lease through the end of its term, plus interest and attorney’s fees. The Plaintiff filed a motion for summary judgment in May of 2019. This Motion has been granted, in part, by the Court, finding that Air Industries Group had a lease and was liable. The Court made no finding as to the amount of the Plaintiff’s damages and directed the parties to use their best efforts to agree on any amount due to Plaintiff.

This action has been settled and the company agreed to pay 13 monthly instalments of $8,548.36 continuing until September 2020. All instalments due to date have been paid and there remain 9 monthly instalments remain.
