WHEREAS, reference is hereby made to (i) the certain Loan Agreement, dated as of March 7, 2023 (the “Existing Loan Agreement” and, as amended by this Amendment, the “Loan Agreement”; capitalized terms used but not defined herein having the meanings provided for in the Loan Agreement), by and among the Borrower, the Lenders party thereto and the Agent, and (ii) the Pledge and Security Agreement, dated as of March 7, 2023 (the “Security Agreement”), by and among the Borrower, the other grantors party thereto and the Agent; and

WHEREAS, the Borrower has requested, and Agent and the Lenders have agreed to make, certain amendments to the Existing Loan Agreement and the Security Agreement, in each case subject to the terms and conditions hereof.

NOW THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto do hereby agree as follows:

1.            Amendments to Existing Loan Agreement. Effective as of the Amendment Effective Date (as defined below), the Existing Loan Agreement is hereby amended pursuant to this Amendment to delete the stricken text (indicated textually in the same manner as the following example: stricken text) and to add the double-underlined text (indicated textually in the same manner as the following example: double-underlined text) as set forth in the pages of the Loan Agreement attached as Exhibit A to this Amendment.

2.            Amendments to Security Agreement. Effective as of the Amendment Effective Date, the Security Agreement is hereby amended as follows:

a.            The definition of “Excluded Account” is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:

““Excluded Account” means (i) any Deposit Account which is used solely and exclusively (A) to fund payroll, 401(k) and other employee benefit plans, (B) as a withholding tax account, (C) as a trust or fiduciary account exclusively holding funds for the benefit of third parties in an amount equal to the amount required to be paid to such third party, (ii) any Deposit Account used solely as a zero balance account, and (ii) the Granite Deposit Account until the date that the Granite Debt is paid in in full in cash or immediately available funds and all commitments, if any, to extend credit to the Borrower are terminated or have expired.”

b.            The definition of “Excluded Collateral” is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:

““Excluded Collateral” means (a) any Grantor’s rights or interests in or under, any lease, license, contract or agreement to which such Grantor is a party to the extent, but only to the extent that such a grant would, under the terms of such lease, license, contract or agreement constitute or result in (i) the abandonment, invalidation or unenforceability of any right, title or interest of such Grantor therein or (ii) a breach or termination pursuant to the terms of, or a default under such lease, license, contract or agreement (other than to the extent that any such term would be rendered ineffective pursuant to Sections 9-406, 9-407, 9-408 or 9-409 of the UCC (or any successor provision or provisions) of any relevant jurisdiction or any other applicable law (including any bankruptcy or insolvency laws) or principles of equity), provided, that (x) immediately upon the ineffectiveness, lapse or termination of any such provision, the Collateral shall include, and such Grantor shall be deemed to have granted a security interest in, all such rights and interests as if such provision had never been in effect and (y) to the extent that any such lease, license, contract or agreement would otherwise constitute Collateral (but for the provisions of this paragraph), all proceeds resulting from the sale or disposition by any Grantor of any rights of such Grantor under such lease, license, contract or agreement shall constitute Collateral; (b) any Excluded Account; (c) any application for registration for a Trademark filed with the United States Patent and Trademark Office on an intent-to-use basis until such time (if any) as a statement of use or amendment to allege use is filed, at which time such Trademark shall automatically become part of the Collateral and subject to the security interest pledged; (d) any assets subject to the Permitted Capital Lease Debt; provided that such Liens are confined to the property so acquired and secure only the Debt incurred to acquire such property; (e) the “Collateral” (as defined in that certain FF&E Security Agreement, dated as of August 18, 2014 (as amended by that certain Second Amendment to Note and Security Agreements, dated on or about May 31, 2021), by and between the Borrower and AH-River East LLC, an Illinois limited liability company, as in effect on the date hereof, which security agreement was entered into in connection with that certain Retail Space Lease, dated as of November 22, 2013 (as amended after the date thereof), by and between the Borrower and AH-River East LLC, an Illinois limited liability company); and (f) the Granite Priority Collateral until the date that the Granite Debt is paid in in full in cash or immediately available funds and all commitments, if any, to extend credit to the Borrower are terminated or have expired; provided that Excluded Collateral shall not include any proceeds, substitutions or replacements of any Excluded Collateral (unless such proceeds, substitutions or replacements would otherwise independently constitute Excluded Collateral).”

3.            Representations and Warranties. Each Obligor hereby represents and warrants to Agent and the Lenders as follows:

a.            the execution and delivery of this Amendment, and the performance by each Obligor of this Amendment and the Loan Agreement has been duly authorized by all necessary actions of such Obligor, and do not and will not violate any provision of law, or any writ, order or decree of any court or Governmental Authority or agency, or any provision of the Organizational Documents of such Obligor, and do not and will not result in a breach of, or constitute a default or require any consent under, or result in the creation of any Lien upon any property or assets of such Obligor pursuant to, any law, regulation, instrument or agreement to which any such Obligor is a party or by which any such Person or its respective properties may be subject or bound;

b.            each of this Amendment and the Loan Agreement is the legal, valid and binding obligation of such Obligor, enforceable against such Obligor in accordance with its terms, subject only to bankruptcy and similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally;

c.            this Amendment has been duly executed and delivered by each Obligor; and

d.            immediately before and after giving effect to this Amendment, no Default or Event of Default will have occurred and be continuing or would result from the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

4.            Conditions to Effectiveness. This Amendment shall become effective upon satisfaction of the following, as determined by the Agent in its reasonable discretion (the date of such effectiveness, the “Amendment Effective Date”):

f.            the Obligors shall have paid on or before the Amendment Effective Date any and all fees required to be paid pursuant to this Amendment and the Loan Agreement and all Lender Expenses incurred by Agent and the Lenders in connection with this Amendment, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and expenses of Alston & Bird LLP, counsel to the Agent.

The Obligors shall be deemed to represent and warrant to Agent that each of the foregoing conditions have been satisfied upon the release of their respective signatures to this Amendment.

5.            No Modification. Except as expressly set forth herein, nothing contained herein shall be deemed to constitute a waiver of compliance with any term or condition contained in the Loan Agreement or any other Loan Document or constitute a course of conduct or dealing among the parties. Agent and the Lenders reserve all rights, privileges and remedies under the Loan Documents. Except as expressly amended hereby, the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents remain unmodified and in full force and effect. The parties hereto agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents as amended by this Amendment, as though such terms and conditions were set forth herein. On and after the Amendment Effective Date, each reference in the Loan Agreement to “this Agreement”, “hereunder”, “hereof”, “herein” or words of similar import shall mean and be a reference to the Loan Agreement as amended hereby, and each reference in any other Loan Document (including any notice, request, certificate or other document executed concurrently with or after the execution and delivery of this Amendment) to the Loan Agreement shall be deemed to be a reference to the Loan Agreement as amended hereby. On and after the Effective Date, each reference in the Security Agreement to “this Agreement,” “hereunder,” “hereof” or words of like import referring the Security Agreement, and each reference in the other Loan Documents to “the Security Agreement,” “thereunder,” “thereof” or words of like import referring to the Security Agreement, shall mean and be a reference to the Security Agreement, as amended by this Amendment. This Amendment shall constitute a Loan Document.

6.            Reaffirmation of Obligors. Each Obligor hereby consents to the amendment of the Existing Loan Agreement effected hereby and confirms and agrees that, notwithstanding the effectiveness of this Amendment, each Loan Document to which such Obligor is a party is, and the obligations of such Obligor contained in the Existing Loan Agreement, this Amendment or in any other Loan Document to which it is a party are, and shall continue to be, in full force and effect and are hereby ratified and confirmed in all respects, in each case as amended by this Amendment. For greater certainty and without limiting the foregoing, each Obligor hereby confirms that (a) the existing security interests granted by such Obligor in favor of Agent pursuant to the Loan Documents in the Collateral described therein shall continue to secure the Obligations and (b) the existing guaranties provided by such Obligor in favor of Agent pursuant to the Loan Documents shall continue to guarantee the Obligations under the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents as and to the extent provided in the Loan Documents.

7.            Release. Each Obligor hereby acknowledges and agrees that, as of the date hereof: (a) neither it nor any of its Subsidiaries has any claim or cause of action against Agent or any Lender (or any of the directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys or consultants of any of the foregoing) under or pursuant to the Loan Agreement or any other Loan Document and (b) Agent and the Lenders have heretofore properly performed and satisfied in a timely manner all of their obligations to the Obligors and all of their Subsidiaries under or pursuant to the Loan Agreement and any other Loan Document. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Agent and the Lenders wish (and the Obligors agree) to eliminate any possibility that any past conditions, acts, omissions, events or circumstances would impair or otherwise adversely affect any of their rights, interests, security and/or remedies. Accordingly, for and in consideration of the agreements contained in this Amendment and other good and valuable consideration, each Obligor (for itself and its Subsidiaries and the successors, assigns, heirs and representatives of each of the foregoing) (collectively, the “Releasors”) does hereby fully, finally, unconditionally and irrevocably release, waive and forever discharge Agent and the Lenders, together with their respective Affiliates, and each of the directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys and consultants of each of the foregoing (collectively, the “Released Parties”), from any and all debts, claims, allegations, obligations, damages, costs, attorneys’ fees, suits, demands, liabilities, actions, proceedings and causes of action, in each case, whether known or unknown, contingent or fixed, direct or indirect, and of whatever nature or description, and whether in law or in equity, under contract, tort, statute or otherwise, which any Releasor has heretofore had or now or hereafter can, shall or may have against any Released Party by reason of any act, omission or thing whatsoever done or omitted to be done, in each case, on or prior to the Amendment Effective Date directly arising out of, connected with or related to this Amendment, the Loan Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any act, event or transaction related or attendant thereto, or the agreements of Agent or any Lender contained therein, or the possession, use, operation or control of any of the assets of any Obligor, or the making of any Terms Loans or other advances, or the management of such Term Loans or other advances or the Collateral (collectively, the “Released Claims”). Each Obligor represents and warrants that it has no knowledge of any claim by any Releasor against any Released Party which would constitute a Released Claim or of any facts or acts or omissions of any Released Party which on the date hereof would be the basis of a Released Claim by any Releasor against any Released Party which would not be released hereby.

8.            Counterparts; Delivery. This Amendment may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Amendment and by telecopy or other electronic means shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Amendment. Notwithstanding anything provided for in any of the Loan Documents, the words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in this Amendment shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.

9.            Complete Agreement. This Amendment constitutes the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersedes any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. By its execution of this Amendment, each of the parties hereto acknowledges and agrees that the terms of this Amendment do not constitute a novation, but, rather, a supplement of the terms of a pre-existing indebtedness and related agreement, as evidenced by the Loan Agreement.

10.            Governing Law. This Amendment shall be deemed to be a contract made under, and for all purposes shall be construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York.

LOAN AGREEMENT

THIS LOAN AGREEMENT (together with all schedules and exhibits hereto from time to time, and as amended, restated, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time after the date hereof, this “Agreement”) is entered into this 7th day of March, 2023, (as amended by the First Amendment), among PINSTRIPES, INC., a Delaware corporation, as borrower (the “Borrower”), SILVERVIEW CREDIT PARTNERS LP, a Delaware limited partnership, as Agent for the Lenders (in such capacity, and together with any successor agent, the “Agent”) and the financial institutions and other institutional investors from time to time party hereto as lenders (the “Lenders”). Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Terms Schedule or the Definitions Schedule annexed hereto, as applicable. All schedules and exhibits annexed hereto, as well as the Perfection Certificate, are incorporated herein and made a part hereof.

Section 1.             TERM LOANS AND TERMS OF REPAYMENT

1.1 Term Loans.

(a)           Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, (i) each Tranche 1 Term Lender severally agrees to make a Tranche 1 Term Loan to the Borrower on the Closing Date in an amount equal to such Tranche 1 Term Lender’s Tranche 1 Term Loan Commitment and (ii) during the Tranche 2 Term Loan Availability Period, each Tranche 2 Term Lender severally agrees to make a Tranche 2 Term Loan to the Borrower from time to time on any Business Day, in an aggregate amount not to exceed at any time outstanding the amount of such Tranche 2 Term Lender’s Tranche 2 Term Loan Commitment; provided that after giving effect to such Term Borrowings, the Total Outstandings shall not exceed the Aggregate Commitments; provided further that each Tranche 2 Term Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of $500,000 and not less than an aggregate amount of $1,000,000. Upon funding, the Tranche 2 Term Loans shall form a single tranche of Term Loans with the Tranche 1 Term Loan and shall be treated as one tranche hereunder in all respects. Requests for funding of a Tranche 2 Term Loan shall be given to the Agent by written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) signed by an Authorized Officer of the Borrower, in the form of the Notice of Borrowing and at a place as may be required by the Agent, no later than 3:00 p.m. at least twenty (20) Business Days in advance of the requested borrowing. Notices received by Lender after 3:00 p.m. shall be deemed received on the next Business Day. Amounts borrowed under this Section 1.1(a) and repaid or prepaid may not be reborrowed and any amount drawn in respect of the Tranche 2 Term Loans may only be borrowed one time.

(b)          The proceeds of the Term Loans shall be used solely by the Borrower to (A) repay the Existing Indebtedness, (B) fund the Obligors’ growth initiatives, (C) pay fees and expenses incurred in connection with the foregoing, and (D) for general corporate purposes. In no event may the proceeds of the Term Loans be used to purchase or to carry, or to reduce, retire or refinance any Debt incurred to purchase or carry, any margin stock, as defined by Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, or for any related purpose that violates the provisions of Regulation T, U or X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. The Term Loans and interest accruing thereon shall be evidenced by the records of the Agent (including the Loan Account) and by the Note(s).

1.2 Payments.

(a)           All payments with respect to any of the Obligations shall be made to the Agent for the account of the Lenders in United States dollars on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without any offset or counterclaim. Except where evidenced by Notes or other instruments made by the Borrower to a Lender specifically containing payment provisions in conflict with this Section 1.2 (in which event the conflicting provisions of such instruments shall govern and control), the Obligations shall be due and payable as follows:

(i)            On the last day of a Prepayment Period, the Borrower shall prepay an unpaid principal amount of the Term Loans equal to the Amortization Payment applicable to such Prepayment Period. Further, to the extent not previously paid, the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Term Loans, plus accrued and unpaid interest (if any), and any fees and expenses payable in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents, shall be due and payable immediately upon the Termination Date. For the avoidance of doubt, the Prepayment Premium shall not apply to any scheduled payment made pursuant to this Section 1.2(a)(i);

(ii)           Interest accrued on the principal balance of the Term Loans shall be due and payable on (x) the fifteenth (15th) day of each calendar month (each, an “Interest Payment Date”), in arrears, computed for the period from and including the previous Interest Payment Date (or the Closing Date, in the case of the first Interest Payment Date occurring after the Closing Date) to but excluding such Interest Payment Date, with the first Interest Payment Date after the Closing Date to occur on April 15, 2023; and (y) the Termination Date; and

(iii)          The balance of the Obligations requiring the payment of money, if any, shall be due and payable as and when provided in the Loan Documents, or, if the date of payment is not specified in the Loan Documents, within five (5) Business Days’ after receipt by the Borrower of written demand therefor.

(iv)          Mandatory Prepayments.

(A)            Immediately upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, the Borrower shall prepay all of the outstanding Obligations, plus the applicable Prepayment Premium, if any;

(B)            Immediately upon the receipt by any Obligor of any Net Proceeds from the incurrence of any Debt (other than Debt permitted to be incurred or issued pursuant to Section 6.3), the Borrower shall prepay the Obligations in an amount equal to 100% of the Net Proceeds from such incurrence of Debt plus the applicable Prepayment Premium, if any;

2

(C)            Immediately upon the occurrence of any asset dispositions (other than a Permitted Asset Disposition pursuant to clauseclauses (a) and (b) of the definition thereof) with Net Proceeds in excess of $250,000 in the aggregate in any Fiscal Year, the Borrower agrees to prepay the Obligations in an amount equal to 100% of the Net Proceeds from such asset dispositions (to the extent of such excess) plus the applicable Prepayment Premium, if any; provided, however, that so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower shall have the option, upon notice in writing to the Agent, to reinvest all or any portion of such Net Proceeds, within one hundred eighty (180) days following receipt of same, to acquire assets useful in the Borrower’s business;

(D)            Immediately upon any Obligor suffering an Event of Loss of any property (other than any property constituting Granite Priority Collateral until the Granite Debt is paid in in full in cash or immediately available funds and all commitments, if any, to extend credit to the Borrower are terminated or have expired) with Net Proceeds in excess of $100,000 in the aggregate in any Fiscal Year, the Borrower shall prepay the Obligations in an amount equal to 100% of the Net Proceeds from such Event of Loss (to the extent of such excess) plus the applicable Prepayment Premium, if any; provided, however, that so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower shall have the option, upon notice in writing to the Agent, to reinvest all or any portion of such Net Proceeds, within one hundred eighty (180) days following receipt of same, to repair or replace the property damaged, lost, destroyed or taken in such Event of Loss or to otherwise acquire property useful in the Borrower’s business;

(E)            Each prepayment of the Obligations pursuant to the foregoing provisions of Section 1.2(a)(iv)(A)-(D) shall be applied in accordance with Section 1.7; and

(v)           The Borrower may voluntarily prepay, in whole or in part, the Obligations at any time upon not less than thirty (30) days’ (or such shorter period as maybe agreed to by the Agent in writing) written notice (which such notice may state that it is subject to the completion of certain conditions as specified therein, including, without limitation, the consummation of a sale of substantially all of the assets of, or all of the outstanding Equity Interests in, the Borrower or a refinancing of the Obligations hereunder, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by written notice to the Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such conditions are not satisfied) to the Agent and the Lenders, plus the applicable Prepayment Premium, if any.

(b)           Whenever any payment of any Obligations shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and interest thereon shall continue to accrue and shall be payable for the period pending receipt of the payment at the rate (or rates) otherwise applicable under this Agreement. If any amount applied to the Obligations is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other Person, then the Obligations or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied, and all Liens, rights and remedies therefor, shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such amount had not been made or received. The provisions hereof shall survive the Termination Date and payment in full of the Obligations.

(c)           Without limiting any other provision contained in this Agreement with respect to the payment of the Prepayment Premium in connection with the payment of all or any portion of the Obligations prior to the Prepayment Premium End Date, in the event of the termination of this Agreement and repayment of the Obligations at any time prior to the Prepayment Premium End Date, for any reason, including (i) termination upon the election of the Agent or the Lenders to terminate after the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, (ii) foreclosure and sale of Collateral, (iii) sale of the Collateral in any Insolvency Proceeding, or (iv) restructuring, reorganization, or compromise of the Obligations by the confirmation of a plan of reorganization or any other plan of compromise, restructure, or arrangement in any Insolvency Proceeding, then, in view of the impracticability and extreme difficulty of ascertaining the actual amount of damages to the Agent and the Lenders or profits lost by the Agent and the Lenders as a result of such early termination, and by mutual agreement of the parties as to a reasonable estimation and calculation of the lost profits or damages of the Agent and the Lenders, the Borrower shall pay to the Agent and the Lenders, the Prepayment Premium, measured as of the date of such termination (it being understood, for the avoidance of doubt, that no Prepayment Premium shall be payable in connection with any payments made in accordance with Section 1.2(a)(i)).

1.3         Interest Rates. Each Term Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof at a rate per annum equal to 15.00%. All interest chargeable under this Agreement shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in a year of 360 days.

1.4          Fees and Reimbursement of Expenses. In addition to any other fees, expenses or other amounts payable by the Borrower to the Agent and/or the Lenders, including, but not limited to, those pursuant to Section 8.8:

All amounts chargeable to the Borrower under this Section 1.4 shall be Obligations secured by the Collateral, shall be payable on demand to the Agent or the Lenders, as applicable, and shall bear interest from the date such demand is made until paid in full at the rate applicable to the Term Loan from time to time.

1.5         Maximum Interest. In no event shall the aggregate of all amounts that are contracted for, charged or received by the Agent and the Lenders pursuant to the terms of the Loan Documents and that are deemed interest under applicable law exceed the highest rate permissible under any applicable law that a court of competent jurisdiction shall, in a final determination, deem applicable hereto. If any interest is charged or received in excess of the maximum rate allowable under applicable law (“Excess”), the Borrower acknowledges and stipulates that any such charge or receipt shall be the result of an accident and bona fide error, and such Excess, to the extent received, shall be applied first to reduce the principal Obligations and the balance, if any, returned to the Borrower, it being the intent of the parties hereto not to enter into a usurious or other illegal relationship. The provisions of this Section shall be deemed to be incorporated into every Loan Document (whether or not any provision of this Section is referred to therein).

1.6         Loan Account; Account Stated. The Agent shall maintain for its books an account (the “Loan Account”) evidencing the Obligations resulting from the Term Loans, including the amount of principal and interest payable from time to time hereunder. Any failure of the Agent to make an entry in the Loan Account, or any error in doing so, shall not limit or otherwise affect the agreement of the Borrower to repay the Obligations in accordance with the Loan Documents. The entries made in the Loan Account shall constitute rebuttably presumptive evidence of the information therein, provided that if a copy of information contained in the Loan Account is provided to an Obligor, or an Obligor inspects the Loan Account at any time, then the information contained in the Loan Account shall be conclusive and binding on such Obligor for all purposes, absent manifest error, unless such Obligor notifies the Agent in writing within thirty (30) days after such Obligor’s receipt of such copy or such Obligor’s inspection of the Loan Account that it disputes the information contained therein.

1.7         Application of Payments and Collections. All payments pursuant to Sections 1.2(iv) and 1.2(v) shall be applied to the outstanding principal amount of Term Loans in the direct order of maturity. All payments pursuant to the first sentence of Section 1.2(a)(i) shall be applied to the outstanding principal amount of the Term Loans to satisfy any Amortization Payments. Any payments of interest, fees, costs and expenses shall be applied to satisfy such obligations. All other payments and collections received at any time hereafter against the Obligations not otherwise specified in this Section 1.7 shall be applied as directed by the Borrower; provided that if the Borrower has not specified the manner in which such funds are to be applied, the Agent may apply such funds in a manner it deems advisable.

(e)           Sell or otherwise dispose of all or any part of the Collateral in its then condition, or after any further manufacturing or processing thereof, at public or private sales, with such notice as may be required by applicable law, in lots or in bulk, for cash or on credit, all as the Agent in its discretion may deem advisable; and each Obligor agrees that any requirement of reasonable notice to such Obligor or any other Obligor of any proposed public or private sale or other disposition of Collateral by the Agent shall be deemed satisfied if such notice is given at least ten (10) days prior thereto, and such sale may be at such locations as the Agent may designate in said notice; and

(f)           Petition for and obtain the appointment of a receiver, without notice of any kind whatsoever, to take possession of any or all of the Collateral and business of the Borrower and to exercise such rights and powers as the court appointing such receiver shall confer upon such receiver.

Solely in connection with the exercise of the such remedies, the Agent is hereby granted an irrevocable, non-exclusive license or other right to use, license or sub-license (exercisable without payment of compensation to any Obligor or any other Person) any or all of the Obligors’ patents, trademarks, trade names and copyrights and all of the Obligors’ computer hardware and software, trade secrets, brochures, customer lists, promotional and advertising materials, labels, and packaging materials, and any property of a similar nature, in advertising for sale, marketing, selling and collecting and in completing the manufacturing of any Collateral, and the Obligors’ rights under all licenses and franchise agreements shall inure to the Agent’s benefit.

Interest shall continue to accrue for a period of two (2) Business Days after receipt of any proceeds of Collateral to allow for collection.

27

7.3          Cumulative Rights; No Waiver. All covenants, conditions, warranties, guaranties, indemnities and other undertakings of any Obligor in any of the Loan Documents shall be deemed cumulative, and the Agent and the Lenders shall have all other rights and remedies not inconsistent herewith as provided under the UCC, or other applicable law. No exercise by the Agent or the Lenders of one right or remedy shall be deemed an election, and no waiver by the Agent or the Lenders of any Default or Event of Default on one occasion shall be deemed to be a continuing waiver or applicable to any other occasion. No delay by the Agent or the Lenders shall constitute a waiver, election or acquiescence by the Agent or the Lenders in any failure by the Borrower to strictly to comply with its obligations under the Loan Documents.

7.4           Application of Payments. Except to the extent provided for in Sections 1.7 and 7.2 hereof, any amounts received by the Agent and the Lenders shall be applied by the Agent (and each Obligor hereby affirmatively consents to any such application) in connection with any enforcement action as follows:

(i)           first, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting fees, indemnities, expenses and other amounts then due and payable to the Agent;

(ii)          second, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting fees, expenses, indemnities and other amounts then due and payable to the Lenders arising under the Loan Documents, ratably among them in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause (ii) payable to them;

(iii)         third, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting unpaid principal installments of the Term Loans then due and payable, ratably among the Lenders in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause (iii) payable to them;

(iv)         fourth, to the payment in full of all other Obligations then due and payable, in each case ratably among the Agent and the Lenders based upon the respective aggregate amounts of all such Obligations then due and payable owing to them in accordance with the respective amounts thereof then due and payable; and

28

8.2           Certain Matters of Construction. The terms “herein,” “hereof” and “hereunder” and other words of similar import refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular section, paragraph or subdivision. Any pronoun used shall be deemed to cover all genders. The section titles, table of contents and list of exhibits appear as a matter of convenience only and shall not affect the interpretation of this Agreement. All references in this Agreement to statutes shall include all amendments of same and implementing regulations and any successor statutes and regulations; to any instrument or agreement (including any of the Loan Documents) shall include any and all modifications and supplements thereto and any and all restatements, extensions or renewals thereof to the extent such modifications, supplements, restatements, extensions or renewals of any such documents are permitted by the terms thereof; to any Person shall mean and include the successors and permitted assigns of such Person; to “including” shall be understood to mean “including, without limitation”; or to the time of day shall mean the time of day on the day in question in New York, New York, unless otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement.

Whenever the phrase “to the best of the Borrower’s knowledge” or words of similar import relating to the knowledge or the awareness of the Borrower are used in this Agreement or other Loan Documents, such phrase shall mean and refer to the actual knowledge of any Senior Officer of the Borrower.

8.3           Power of Attorney. Effective only during the continuance of any Event of Default, each Obligor hereby irrevocably makes, constitutes and appoints the Agent (and any of the Agent’s officers, employees or agents designated by the Agent), with full power of substitution, as such Obligor’s true and lawful attorney, in such Obligor’s or the Agent’s name: (a) to endorse such Obligor’s name on any checks, notes, acceptances, money orders, drafts or other forms of payment or security that may come into the Agent’s possession; (b) to sign such Obligor’s name on drafts against Account Debtors, on schedules and assignments of Accounts, on notices to Account Debtors and on any Account invoice or bill of lading; (c) to send requests for verification of Accounts, and to contact Account Debtors in any other manner to verify the Accounts; (d) to notify the post office authorities to change the address for delivery of such Obligor’s mail to any address designated by the Agent, to receive and open all mail addressed to such Obligor, and to retain all mail relating to the Collateral and forward, within two (2) Business Days of the Agent’s receipt thereof, all other mail to such Obligor; and (e) to do all other things necessary to carry out this Agreement. The foregoing power of attorney, being coupled with an interest, is irrevocable so long as any Obligations are outstanding. Each Obligor ratifies and approves all acts of the attorney. Neither the Agent nor its employees, officers, or agents shall be liable for any acts or omissions or for any error in judgment or mistake of fact or law except for gross negligence or willful misconduct.

8.4           Notices and Communications. All notices, requests and other communications to or upon a party hereto shall be in writing (including facsimile transmission or similar writing) and shall be given to such party at the address, facsimile number or email address for such party in Item 10 of the Terms Schedule or at such other address or facsimile number as such party may hereafter specify for the purpose of notice to the Agent and the Obligors in accordance with the provisions of this Section. Each such notice, request or other communication shall be effective (i) if given by facsimile transmission, when transmitted to the facsimile number specified herein for the noticed party and confirmation of receipt is received, (ii) if given by mail, three (3) Business Days after such communication is deposited in the U.S. Mail, with first class postage pre-paid, addressed to the noticed party at the address specified herein, (iii) if sent by electronic mail, when sent to the address listed in Item 10 of the Terms Schedule, or (iv) if given by personal delivery, when duly delivered with receipt acknowledged in writing by the noticed party.

Any written notice, request or demand that is not sent in conformity with the provisions hereof shall nevertheless be effective on the date that such notice, request or demand is actually received by the individual to whose attention at the noticed party such notice, request or demand is required to be sent.

29

8.5           Performance of Obligors’ Obligations. If any Obligor shall fail to discharge any covenant, duty or obligation hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents, the Agent may, in its discretion at any time concurrently with notice to such Obligor, for such Obligor’s account and at such Obligor’s expense, pay any amount or do any act required of such Obligor hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents or otherwise lawfully requested by the Agent. All costs and expenses incurred by the Agent in connection with the taking of any such action shall be reimbursed to the Agent by such Obligor on demand with interest at the applicable interest rate from the date such payment is made or such costs or expenses are incurred to the date of payment thereof; provided that, to the extent such Obligor has not reimbursed the Agent within five (5) Business Days following such demand, interest shall accrue at the Default Rate until the date of payment thereof. Any payment made or other action taken by the Agent under this Section shall be without prejudice to any right to assert, and without waiver of, an Event of Default hereunder and without prejudice to the Agent’s right to proceed thereafter as provided herein or in any of the other Loan Documents.

8.6 Agent.

(a)            Authorization and Action. Each Lender (in its capacity as a Lender) hereby appoints and authorizes the Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers and discretion under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as are delegated to the Agent by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto. As to any matters not expressly provided for by the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, enforcement or collection of the Obligations of the Obligors), the Agent shall not be required to exercise any discretion or take any action, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the instructions of all Lenders, and such instructions shall be binding upon all Lenders; provided, however, that the Agent shall be required to take any action that exposes it to personal liability or that is contrary to this Agreement or applicable law.

(b)            In furtherance of the foregoing, each Lender (in its capacities as a Lender) hereby appoints and authorizes the Agent to act as the agent of such Lender for purposes of acquiring, holding and enforcing any and all Liens on Collateral granted by any of the Obligors to secure any of the Obligations, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto. In this connection, the Agent (and any Supplemental Collateral Agents appointed by the Agent pursuant to Section 8.6(c) for purposes of holding or enforcing any Lien on the Collateral (or any portion thereof) granted under the Security Documents, or for exercising any rights or remedies thereunder at the direction of the Agent) shall be entitled to the benefits of this Section 8.6 (including, without limitation, Section 8.6(g)) as though the Agent (and any such Supplemental Collateral Agents) were an “Agent” under the Loan Documents, as if set forth in full herein with respect thereto.

30

(c)            The Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement or any other Loan Document (including for purposes of holding or enforcing any Lien on the Collateral (or any portion thereof) granted under the Security Documents or of exercising any rights and remedies thereunder at the direction of the Agent) by or through agents, employees or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel and other consultants or experts concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. The Agent may also from time to time, when the Agent deems it to be necessary or desirable, appoint one or more trustees, co-trustees, collateral co-agents, collateral subagents or attorneys-in-fact (each, a “Supplemental Collateral Agent”) with respect to all or any part of the Collateral; provided, however, that no such Supplemental Collateral Agent shall be authorized to take any action with respect to any Collateral unless and except to the extent expressly authorized in writing by the Agent. Should any instrument in writing from the Borrower or any other Obligor be required by any Supplemental Collateral Agent so appointed by the Agent to more fully or certainly vest in and confirm to such Supplemental Collateral Agent such rights, powers, privileges and duties, the Borrower shall, or shall cause such Obligor to, execute, acknowledge and deliver any and all such instruments promptly upon request by the Agent. If any Supplemental Collateral Agent, or successor thereto, shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all rights, powers, privileges and duties of such Supplemental Collateral Agent, to the extent permitted by law, shall automatically vest in and be exercised by the Agent until the appointment of a new Supplemental Collateral Agent. The Agent shall be not responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agent, attorney-in-fact or Supplemental Collateral Agent that it selects in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this Section 8.6(c) in the absence of the Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.

(d)            Agent’s Reliance, Etc. Neither the Agent nor any of its respective directors, officers, agents or employees shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them under or in connection with the Loan Documents, except for its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limitation of the generality of the foregoing, the Agent: (a) may consult with legal counsel (including counsel for any Obligor), independent public accountants and other experts selected by it and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts; (b) makes no warranty or representation to any Lender and shall not be responsible to any Lender for any statements, warranties or representations (whether written or oral) made in or in connection with the Loan Documents; (c) shall not have any duty to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance, observance or satisfaction of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of any Loan Document on the part of any Obligor or the existence at any time of any Default under the Loan Documents or to inspect the property (including the books and records) of any Obligor; (d) shall not be responsible to any Lender for the due execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of, or the perfection or priority of any lien or security interest created or purported to be created under or in connection with, any Loan Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant thereto; and (e) shall incur no liability under or in respect of any Loan Document by acting upon any notice, consent, certificate or other instrument or writing (which may be by telegram, telecopy or electronic communication) believed by it to be genuine and signed or sent by the proper party or parties.

31

(e)            Silverview Credit Partners LP and Affiliates. With respect to its Commitments, the Terms Loans made by it and any Notes issued to it, Silverview Credit Partners LP shall have the same rights and powers under the Loan Documents as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Agent; and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated, include Silverview Credit Partners LP in its individual capacity. Silverview Credit Partners LP and its affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as trustee under indentures of, accept investment banking engagements from and generally engage in any kind of business with, any Obligor, any of its Subsidiaries and any Person that may do business with or own securities of any Obligor or any such Subsidiary, all as if Silverview Credit Partners LP were not the Agent and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders. The Agent shall not have any duty to disclose any information obtained or received by it or any of its Affiliates relating to any Obligor or any of its Subsidiaries to the extent such information was obtained or received in any capacity other than as the Agent.

(f)            Lender Party Credit Decision. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Agent or any other Lender and based on the financial statements referred to in Section 3 and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement

(g)            Indemnification. Each Lender severally agrees to indemnify the Agent (to the extent not promptly reimbursed by the Obligors) from and against such Lender’s ratable share (determined as provided below) of any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever that may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against the Agent in any way relating to or arising out of the Loan Documents or any action taken or omitted by the Agent under the Loan Documents (collectively, the “Indemnified Costs”); provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from the Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as found in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender agrees to reimburse the Agent promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any costs and expenses (including, without limitation, fees and expenses of counsel) payable by the Obligors under Section 8.8, to the extent that the Agent is not promptly reimbursed for such costs and expenses by the Obligors. In the case of any investigation, litigation or proceeding giving rise to any Indemnified Costs, this Section 8.6(g) applies whether any such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by any Lender or any other Person. For purposes of this Section 8.6(g), each Lender’s ratable share of any amount shall be determined, at any time, according to the sum of (i) the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loans outstanding at such time and owing to such Lender, and (ii) the aggregate unused portions of such Lender’s Commitments at such time. The failure of any Lender to reimburse the Agent promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any amount required to be paid by the Lenders to the Agent, as provided herein shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation hereunder to reimburse the Agent, for its ratable share of such amount, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to reimburse the Agent, for such other Lender’s ratable share of such amount. Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of any Lender hereunder, the agreement and obligations of each Lender contained in this Section 8.6 shall survive the payment in full of principal, interest and all other amounts payable hereunder and under the other Loan Documents.

32

(h)           Erroneous Payments.

(i)            Each Lender hereby agrees that (i) if the Agent notifies such Lender that the Agent has determined that any funds received by such Lender from the Agent or any of its Affiliates were erroneously transmitted to, or otherwise erroneously or mistakenly received by, such Lender (whether or not known to such Lender) (whether as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees or otherwise; individually and collectively, a “Erroneous Payment”) and demands the return of such Erroneous Payment (or a portion thereof), such Lender shall promptly, but in no event later than one (1) Business Day thereafter, return to the Agent the amount of any such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made, in same day funds (in the currency so received), and if such Lender fails to return the amount of any such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) to the Agent by such Business Day, such Lender shall also pay the Agent interest thereon in respect of each day after such Business Day to the date such amount is repaid to the Agent in same day funds at a rate determined by the Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect and (ii) to the extent permitted by applicable law, such Lender shall not assert any right or claim to the Erroneous Payment, and hereby waives, any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by the Agent for the return of any Erroneous Payments received, including without limitation waiver of any defense based on “discharge for value” or any similar doctrine. A notice of the Agent to any Lender under this clause (i) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

(j)            Without limiting immediately preceding clause (i), each Lender hereby further agrees that if it receives an Erroneous Payment from the Agent (or any of its Affiliates) (x) that is in a different amount than, or on a different date from, that specified in a notice of payment sent by the Agent (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such Erroneous Payment (an “Erroneous Payment Notice”), (y) that was not preceded or accompanied by an Erroneous Payment Notice, or (z) that such Lender otherwise becomes aware was transmitted, or received, in error or by mistake (in whole or in part), in each case, an error has been made with respect to such Erroneous Payment, and to the extent permitted by applicable law, such Lender shall not assert any right or claim to the Erroneous Payment, and hereby waives, any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by the Agent for the return of any Erroneous Payments received, including without limitation waiver of any defense based on “discharge for value” or any similar doctrine. Each Lender agrees that, in each such case, it shall promptly (and, in all events, within one (1) Business Day of its actual knowledge of such error) notify the Agent of such occurrence (provided, that a failure by any Lender to notify the Agent of such occurrence shall neither constitute nor be deemed to constitute a breach by such Lender of any of its obligations under this Agreement unless and to the extent such failure resulted from such Lender’s gross negligence or willful misconduct) and, upon demand from the Agent, it shall promptly, but in all events no later than one (1) Business Day thereafter, return to the Agent the amount of any such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made in same day funds (in the currency so received), and if such Lender fails to return the amount of any such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) to the Agent by such Business Day, such Lender shall also pay the Agent interest thereon in respect of each day after such Business Day to the date such amount is repaid to the Agent in same day funds at a rate determined by the Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect.

33

(k)            Each Obligor hereby agrees that (x) in the event an Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered from any Lender that has received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) for any reason, the Agent shall be subrogated to all the rights of such Lender with respect to such amount and (y) an Erroneous Payment that does not consist of the Borrower’s funds, or to the extent an Erroneous Payment consists of the Borrower’s funds and such Erroneous Payment has been returned to the Borrower, such Erroneous Payment shall not pay, prepay, repay, discharge or otherwise satisfy any Obligations owed by any Obligor.

(l)            Each party’s obligations under this Section 8.6 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Agent, the termination of the Commitments or the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Obligations (or any portion thereof) under any Loan Document.

8.7           Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of the respective successors and assigns of each of the parties, provided, that the Borrower may not assign this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder without the Agent’s prior written consent and any prohibited assignment shall be null and void ab initio.

35

The board of directors of the Borrower shall meet no fewer than three times per year.

In the event that (i) no Default or Event of Default exists other than that arising due to failure of the Obligors to comply with the Financial Covenants and (ii) the Borrower shall have delivered to the Agent written notice of its intention to exercise the Cure Right (which notice shall be delivered no earlier than fifteen (15) days prior to, and no later than the fifth (5th) day subsequent to, the date the applicable financial statements are required to be delivered hereunder), which exercise if fully consummated would be sufficient in accordance with the terms hereof to cause the Obligors to be in compliance with the Financial Covenants as of the relevant date of determination, then from and following receipt by the Agent of any such notice and until the date that is the earlier of (x) the thirtieth (30th) day subsequent to the date the applicable financial statements are required to be delivered and (y) the date, if any, on which the Borrower notifies the Agent in writing that such Cure Right shall not be exercised, then neither the Agent nor any Lender shall exercise any remedies set forth in Section 7.2 hereof during such period, or any other rights or remedies under any other Loan Document. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event shall the Borrower be permitted to exercise the Cure Right hereunder (x) more than four (4) times in the aggregate during the term of this Agreement, or (y) more than two (2) times during the same calendar year.
