2.3 General Provisions Relating to the Credit Extensions.  Each Credit Extension shall, at Borrower’s option in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, be either in the form of a Prime Rate Credit Extension or a LIBOR Credit Extension; provided that in no event shall Borrower maintain at any time LIBOR Credit Extension having more than two (2) different Interest Periods.  Borrower shall pay interest accrued on the Credit Extensions at the rates and in the manner set forth in Section 2.4.
 
2.4 Payment of Interest on the Credit Extensions.
 
(a) Computation of Interest.  Interest on the Credit Extensions and all fees payable hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year and the actual number of days elapsed in the period during which such interest accrues.  In computing interest on any Credit Extension, the date of the making of such Credit Extension shall be included and the date of payment shall be excluded; provided, however, that if any Credit Extension is repaid on the same day on which it is made, such day shall be included in computing interest on such Credit Extension.
 
(b) Credit Extensions.  Each Credit Extension shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the date when made, continued or converted until paid in full at (i) a floating rate per annum equal to the Prime Rate plus the Prime Rate Margin for such Credit Extensions, or (ii) the LIBOR Rate plus the LIBOR Rate Margin for such Credit Extensions, as the case may be.  On and after the expiration of any Interest Period applicable to any LIBOR Credit Extension outstanding on the date of occurrence of an Event of Default or acceleration of the Obligations, the Effective Amount of such LIBOR Credit Extension shall, during the continuance of such Event of Default or after acceleration, bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Prime Rate plus five percent (5.0%).  Pursuant to the terms hereof, interest on each Credit Extension shall be paid in arrears on each Interest Payment Date.  Interest shall also be paid on the date of any prepayment of any Credit Extension pursuant to this Agreement for the portion of any Credit Extension so prepaid and upon payment (including prepayment) in full thereof.  All accrued but unpaid interest on the Credit Extensions shall be due and payable on the Revolving Line Maturity Date and the 2014 Term Loan Maturity Date.
 
(c) Default Interest.  Except as otherwise provided in Section 2.4(b), upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, Obligations shall bear interest five percent (5.00%) above the rate effective immediately before the Event of Default (the “Default Rate”).  Payment or acceptance of the increased interest provided in this Section 2.4(c) is not a permitted alternative to timely payment and shall not constitute a waiver of any Event of Default or otherwise prejudice or limit any rights or remedies of Bank.
 
(d) Prime Rate Credit Extensions.  Each change in the interest rate of the Prime Rate Credit Extensions based on changes in the Prime Rate shall be effective on the effective date of such change and to the extent of such change.  Bank shall use its best efforts to give Borrower prompt notice of any such change in the Prime Rate; provided, however, that any failure by Bank to provide Borrower with notice hereunder shall not affect Bank’s right to make changes in the interest rate of the Prime Rate Credit Extensions based on changes in the Prime Rate.
 
(e) LIBOR Credit Extensions.  The interest rate applicable to each LIBOR Credit Extension shall be determined in accordance with Section 3.6(a) hereunder.  Subject to Sections 3.6 and 3.7, such rate shall apply during the entire Interest Period applicable to such LIBOR Credit Extension, and interest calculated thereon shall be payable on the Interest Payment Date applicable to such LIBOR Credit Extension.
 
(f) Debit of Accounts.  Bank (i) shall debit Borrower’s Designated Deposit Account for principal and interest payments when due, and (ii) may debit Borrower’s Designated Deposit Account (x) upon notice for any other amounts (less than One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000)) Borrower owes Bank when due, or (y) upon prior written notice for any other amounts (in excess of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000)) Borrower owes Bank when due.  These debits shall not constitute a set-off.
 
(g) Interest Payment Date.  Unless otherwise provided, interest is payable on the Interest Payment Date.
 
2.5 Fees.  Borrower shall pay to Bank:
 
(a) Commitment Fee.  A fully earned, non-refundable commitment fee of One Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($150,000.00) shall be earned and payable on the 2014 Effective Date;
 
(b) Unused Revolving Line Facility Fee.  A fee (the “Unused Revolving Line Facility Fee”), payable quarterly, in arrears, on a calendar year basis, in an amount equal to the Unused Revolving Line Facility Fee Amount, calculated by Bank in accordance with the terms of this Agreement;
 
(c) Prepayment Premium.  The Prepayment Premium, if and when due hereunder;
 
(d) Early Termination Fee.  The Revolving Line may be terminated prior to the Revolving Line Maturity Date as follows: (i) by Borrower, effective three (3) Business Days after written notice of termination is given to Bank; or (ii) by Bank at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, under Sections 8.4 or 8.5 hereof without notice, effective immediately (subject to the applicable cure period, if any).  If the Revolving Line is terminated prior to the first (1st) anniversary of the 2014 Effective Date: (A) by Bank in accordance with clause (ii) in the foregoing sentence, or (B) by Borrower for any reason, Borrower shall pay to Bank all outstanding Obligations under the Agreement with respect to the Revolving Line, as well as a non-refundable early termination fee in the amount of Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000.00) (the “Early Termination Fee”).  The Early Termination Fee shall be due and payable on the effective date of such termination and thereafter shall bear interest at a rate equal to the highest rate applicable to any of the Obligations; and
 
(e) Bank Expenses.  All Bank Expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses for documentation and negotiation of this Agreement) incurred through and after the 2014 Effective Date, when due.
 
(f) Good Faith Deposit.  Borrower has paid to Bank a good faith deposit of Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000.00) (the “Good Faith Deposit”) to initiate Bank’s due diligence review process, which Good Faith Deposit will be applied to the Bank Expenses on the 2014 Effective Date.
 
2.6 Payments; Application of Payments.
 
(a) All payments (including prepayments) to be made by Borrower under any Loan Document shall be made in immediately available funds in U.S. Dollars, without setoff or counterclaim, before 12:00 p.m. Eastern time on the date when due.  Payments of principal and/or interest received after 12:00 p.m. Eastern time are considered received at the opening of business on the next Business Day.  When a payment is due on a day that is not a Business Day, the payment shall be due the next Business Day, and additional fees or interest, as applicable, shall continue to accrue until paid.
 
(b)           Bank shall apply the whole or any part of collected funds against the Revolving Line or, if no principal or interest is then owing under the Revolving Line, credit such collected funds to a depository account of Borrower with Bank (or an account maintained by an Affiliate of Bank).  The order and method of  application of funds with respect to principal, interest and fees owed with respect to the Revolving Line shall be made in the sole discretion of Bank.  Borrower shall have no right to specify the order of payment with respect to the Revolving Line.  Borrower shall designate the depository account to which funds shall otherwise be credited.

2.7.           Prior Loan Agreement.  Bank and Borrower hereby acknowledge and agree that there are no outstanding obligations due to Bank by Borrower with respect to the Prior Agreement, except as set forth on Schedule 2.7 attached hereto, which outstanding obligations shall be paid in full on the 2014 Effective Date.

3.5 Conversion and Continuation Elections.
 
 
(a)           So long as (i) no Event of Default or Default exists; (ii) Borrower shall not have sent any notice of termination of this Agreement; and (iii) Borrower shall have complied with such customary procedures as Bank has established from time to time for Borrower’s requests for LIBOR Credit Extensions, Borrower may, upon irrevocable written notice to Bank:

(2)           elect to continue on any Interest Payment Date any LIBOR Credit Extensions maturing on such Interest Payment Date (or any part thereof in an amount equal to One Million Dollars ($1,000,000.00); provided, that if the aggregate amount of LIBOR Credit Extensions shall have been reduced, by payment, prepayment, or conversion of part thereof, to be less than One Million Dollars ($1,000,000.00), such LIBOR Credit Extensions shall automatically convert into Prime Rate Credit Extensions, and on and after such date the right of Borrower to continue such Credit Extensions as, and convert such Credit Extensions into, LIBOR Credit Extensions shall terminate; or
 
(3)           elect to convert on any Interest Payment Date any LIBOR Credit Extensions maturing on such Interest Payment Date (or any part thereof in an amount equal to One Million Dollars ($1,000,000.00) into Prime Rate Credit Extensions.
 
                      (b)           Borrower shall deliver a Notice of Conversion/Continuation in accordance with Section 10 to be received by Bank prior to 12:00 p.m. Eastern time at least (i) three (3) Business Days in advance of the Conversion Date or Continuation Date, if any Credit Extensions are to be converted into or continued as LIBOR Credit Extensions; and (ii) one (1) Business Day in advance of the Conversion Date, if any Credit Extensions are to be converted into Prime Rate Credit Extensions, in each case specifying the:
 
(1) proposed Conversion Date or Continuation Date;
 
(2) aggregate amount of the Credit Extensions to be converted or continued which, if any Credit Extensions are to be converted into or continued as LIBOR Credit Extensions, shall be in an aggregate minimum principal amount of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000.00);

                      (c)           If upon the expiration of any Interest Period applicable to any LIBOR Credit Extensions, Borrower shall have failed to timely select a new Interest Period to be applicable to such LIBOR Credit Extensions, Borrower shall be deemed to have elected to convert such LIBOR Credit Extensions into Prime Rate Credit Extensions.
 
                      (d)           Any LIBOR Credit Extensions shall, at Bank’s option, convert into Prime Rate Credit Extensions in the event that (i) an Event of Default or Default shall exist, or (ii) the aggregate principal amount of the Prime Rate Credit Extensions which have been previously converted to LIBOR Credit Extensions, or the aggregate principal amount of existing LIBOR Credit Extensions continued, as the case may be, at the beginning of an Interest Period shall at any time during such Interest Period exceed the Revolving Line.
 
 
                      (e)           Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Bank shall not be required to purchase United States Dollar deposits in the London interbank market or other applicable LIBOR market to fund any LIBOR Credit Extensions, but the provisions hereof shall be deemed to apply as if Bank had purchased such deposits to fund the LIBOR Credit Extensions.
 
 
3.6 Special Provisions Governing LIBOR Credit Extensions.
 
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the following provisions shall govern with respect to LIBOR Credit Extensions as to the matters covered:
 
(a) Determination of Applicable Interest Rate.  As soon as practicable on each Interest Rate Determination Date, Bank shall determine (which determination shall, absent manifest error in calculation, be final, conclusive and binding upon all parties) the interest rate that shall apply to the LIBOR Credit Extensions for which an interest rate is then being determined for the applicable Interest Period and shall promptly give notice thereof (in writing or by telephone confirmed in writing) to Borrower.
 
(b) Inability to Determine Applicable Interest Rate.  In the event that Bank shall have determined (which determination shall be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto), on any Interest Rate Determination Date with respect to any LIBOR Credit Extension, that by reason of circumstances affecting the London interbank market adequate and fair means do not exist for ascertaining the interest rate applicable to such Credit Extension on the basis provided for in the definition of LIBOR, Bank shall on such date give notice (by facsimile or by telephone confirmed in writing) to Borrower of such determination, whereupon (i) no Credit Extensions may be made as, or converted to, LIBOR Credit Extensions until such time as Bank notifies Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, and (ii) any Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation given by Borrower with respect to Credit Extensions in respect of which such determination was made shall be deemed to be rescinded by Borrower.
 
(c) Compensation for Breakage or Non-Commencement of Interest Periods.  Borrower shall compensate Bank, upon written request by Bank (which request shall set forth the manner and method of computing such compensation), for all reasonable losses, expenses and liabilities, if any (including any interest paid by Bank to lenders of funds borrowed by it to make or carry its LIBOR Credit Extensions and any loss, expense or liability incurred by Bank in connection with the liquidation or re-employment of such funds) such that Bank may incur: (i) if for any reason (other than a default by Bank or due to any failure of Bank to fund LIBOR Credit Extensions due to impracticability or illegality under Sections 3.7(d) and 3.7(e)) a borrowing or a conversion to or continuation of any LIBOR Credit Extension does not occur on a date specified in a Notice of Borrowing or a Notice of Conversion/Continuation, as the case may be, or (ii) if any principal payment or any conversion of any of its LIBOR Credit Extensions occurs on a date prior to the last day of an Interest Period applicable to that Credit Extension.
 
(d) Assumptions Concerning Funding of LIBOR Credit Extensions.  Calculation of all amounts payable to Bank under this Section 3.6 and under Section 3.4 shall be made as though Bank had actually funded each of its relevant LIBOR Credit Extensions through the purchase of a Eurodollar deposit bearing interest at the rate obtained pursuant to the definition of LIBOR Rate in an amount equal to the amount of such LIBOR Credit Extension and having a maturity comparable to the relevant Interest Period; provided, however, that Bank may fund each of its LIBOR Credit Extensions in any manner it sees fit and the foregoing assumptions shall be utilized only for the purposes of calculating amounts payable under this Section 3.6 and under Section 3.4.
 
 
                      (e)           LIBOR Credit Extensions After Default.  After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, (i) Borrower may not elect to have a Credit Extension be made or continued as, or converted to, a LIBOR Credit Extension after the expiration of any Interest Period then in effect for such Credit Extension and (ii) subject to the provisions of Section 3.6(c), any Notice of Conversion/Continuation given by Borrower with respect to a requested conversion/continuation that has not yet occurred shall be deemed to be rescinded by Borrower and be deemed a request to convert or continue Credit Extensions referred to therein as Prime Rate Credit Extensions.
 
 
3.7 Additional Requirements/Provisions Regarding LIBOR Credit Extensions.
 
(a)           If for any reason (including voluntary or mandatory prepayment or acceleration), Bank receives all or part of the principal amount of a LIBOR Credit Extension prior to the last day of the Interest Period for such Credit Extension, Borrower shall, immediately on demand by Bank, pay Bank the amount (if any) by which (i) the additional interest which would have been payable on the amount so received had it not been received until the last day of such Interest Period exceeds (ii) the interest which would have been recoverable by Bank by placing the amount so received on deposit in the certificate of deposit markets, the offshore currency markets, or United States Treasury investment products, as the case may be, for a period starting on the date on which it was so received and ending on the last day of such Interest Period at the interest rate determined by Bank in its reasonable discretion.  Bank’s determination as to such amount shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
 
(b)           Borrower shall pay Bank, upon demand by Bank, from time to time such amounts as Bank may determine to be necessary to compensate it for any costs incurred by Bank that Bank determines are attributable to its making or maintaining of any amount receivable by Bank hereunder in respect of any Credit Extensions relating thereto (such increases in costs and reductions in amounts receivable being herein called “Additional Costs”), in each case resulting from any Regulatory Change which:
 
(i)           changes the basis of taxation of any amounts payable to Bank under this Agreement in respect of any Credit Extensions (other than changes which affect taxes measured by or imposed on the overall net income of Bank by the jurisdiction in which Bank has its principal office);
 
(ii)           imposes or modifies any reserve, special deposit or similar requirements relating to any extensions of credit or other assets of, or any deposits with, or other liabilities of Bank (including any Credit Extensions or any deposits referred to in the definition of LIBOR); or
 
(iii)           imposes any other condition affecting this Agreement (or any of such extensions of credit or liabilities).
 
Bank will notify Borrower of any event occurring after the 2014 Effective Date which will entitle Bank to compensation pursuant to this Section 3.7 as promptly as practicable after it obtains knowledge thereof and determines to request such compensation.  Bank will furnish Borrower with a statement setting forth the basis and amount of each request by Bank for compensation under this Section 3.7.  Determinations and allocations by Bank for purposes of this Section 3.7 of the effect of any Regulatory Change on its costs of maintaining its obligations to make Credit Extensions, of making or maintaining Credit Extensions, or on amounts receivable by it in respect of Credit Extensions, and of the additional amounts required to compensate Bank in respect of any Additional Costs, shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.
 
(c) If Bank shall determine that the adoption or implementation of any applicable law, rule, regulation, or treaty regarding capital adequacy, or any change therein, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental authority, central bank, or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by Bank (or its applicable lending office) with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank, or comparable agency, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on capital of Bank or any person or entity controlling Bank (a “Parent”) as a consequence of its obligations hereunder to a level below that which Bank (or its Parent) could have achieved but for such adoption, change, or compliance (taking into consideration policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by Bank to be material, then from time to time, within fifteen (15) days after demand by Bank, Borrower shall pay to Bank such additional amount or amounts as will compensate Bank for such reduction, provided that Bank shall use reasonable efforts (subject to overall policy considerations of Bank) to designate another lending office for any Credit Extensions affected by such event, provided further that such designation is made on such terms such that Bank and its lending office suffer no economic, legal or regulatory disadvantage.  A statement of Bank claiming compensation under this Section 3.7(c) and setting forth the additional amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
 
(d) If, at any time, Bank, in its sole and absolute discretion, determines that (i) the amount of LIBOR Credit Extensions for periods equal to the corresponding Interest Periods are not available to Bank in the offshore currency interbank markets, or (ii) LIBOR does not accurately reflect the cost to Bank of lending the LIBOR Credit Extensions, then Bank shall promptly give notice thereof to Borrower.  Upon the giving of such notice, Bank’s obligation to make the LIBOR Credit Extensions shall terminate; provided, however, Credit Extensions shall not terminate if Bank and Borrower agree in writing to a different interest rate applicable to LIBOR Credit Extensions.
 
 
(e)           If it shall become unlawful for Bank to continue to fund or maintain any LIBOR Credit Extensions, or to perform its obligations hereunder, upon demand by Bank, Borrower shall prepay the Credit Extensions in full with accrued interest thereon and all other amounts payable by Borrower hereunder (including, without limitation, any amount payable in connection with such prepayment pursuant to Section 3.7(a)).  Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent a determination by Bank as described above relates to a LIBOR Credit Extensions then being requested by Borrower pursuant to a Notice of Borrowing or a Notice of Conversion/Continuation, Borrower shall have the option, subject to the provisions of Section 3.6(c), to (i) rescind such Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation by giving notice (by facsimile or by telephone confirmed in writing) to Bank of such rescission on the date on which Bank gives notice of its determination as described above, or (ii) modify such Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation to obtain a Prime Rate Credit Extension or to have outstanding Credit Extensions converted into or continued as Prime Rate Credit Extensions by giving notice (by facsimile or by telephone confirmed in writing) to Bank of such modification on the date on which Bank gives notice of its determination as described above.

7.8 Transactions with Affiliates.  Directly or indirectly enter into or permit to exist any material transaction with any Affiliate of Borrower, except for transactions that are in the ordinary course of Borrower’s business, upon fair and reasonable terms that are no less favorable to Borrower than would be obtained in an arm’s length transaction with a non-affiliated Person.
 
7.9 Subordinated Debt.  (a) Make or permit any payment on any Subordinated Debt, except under the terms of the subordination, intercreditor, or other similar agreement to which such Subordinated Debt is subject, or (b) amend any provision in any document relating to the Subordinated Debt which would increase the amount thereof or adversely affect the subordination thereof to Obligations owed to Bank.

9 BANK’S RIGHTS AND REMEDIES
 
9.1 Rights and Remedies.  While an Event of Default occurs and continues Bank may, without notice or demand, do any or all of the following:
 
(a) declare all Obligations immediately due and payable (but if an Event of Default described in Section 8.5 occurs, all Obligations are immediately due and payable without any action by Bank);
 
(b) stop advancing money or extending credit for Borrower’s benefit under this Agreement or under any other agreement between Borrower and Bank and terminate the Revolving Line;
 
(c) demand that Borrower (i) deposit cash with Bank in an amount equal to 100% (if the Letter of Credit is denominated in U.S. Dollars) or 105% (if the Letter of Credit is denominated in Foreign Currency) of the Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate face amount of all Letters of Credit remaining undrawn (plus all interest, fees, and costs due or to become due in connection therewith (as estimated by Bank in its good faith business judgment)), to secure all of the Obligations relating to such Letters of Credit, as collateral security for the repayment of any future drawings under such Letters of Credit, and Borrower shall forthwith deposit and pay such amounts, and (ii) pay in advance all letter of credit fees scheduled to be paid or payable over the remaining term of any Letters of Credit;
 
(d) terminate any FX Forward Contracts;
 
(e) settle or adjust disputes and claims directly with Account Debtors for amounts on terms and in any order that Bank considers advisable, notify any Person owing Borrower money of Bank’s security interest in such funds, and verify the amount of such account;
 
(f) make any payments and do any acts it considers necessary or reasonable to protect the Collateral and/or its security interest in the Collateral.  Borrower shall assemble the Collateral if Bank requests and make it available as Bank designates.  Bank may enter premises where the Collateral is located, take and maintain possession of any part of the Collateral, and pay, purchase, contest, or compromise any Lien which appears to be prior or superior to its security interest and pay all expenses incurred. Borrower grants Bank a license to enter and occupy any of its premises, without charge, to exercise any of Bank’s rights or remedies;
 
(g) apply to the Obligations any (i) balances and deposits of Borrower it holds, or (ii) any amount held by Bank owing to or for the credit or the account of Borrower;
 
(h) ship, reclaim, recover, store, finish, maintain, repair, prepare for sale, advertise for sale, and sell the Collateral.  Bank is hereby granted a non-exclusive, royalty-free license or other right to use, without charge, Borrower’s labels, Patents, Copyrights, mask works, rights of use of any name, trade secrets, trade names, Trademarks, and advertising matter, or any similar property as it pertains to the Collateral, in completing production of, advertising for sale, and selling any Collateral and, in connection with Bank’s exercise of its rights under this Section, Borrower’s rights under all licenses and all franchise agreements inure to Bank’s benefit;
 
(i) place a “hold” on any account maintained with Bank and/or deliver a notice of exclusive control, any entitlement order, or other directions or instructions pursuant to any Control Agreement or similar agreements providing control of any Collateral;
 
(j) demand and receive possession of Borrower’s Books; and
 
(k) exercise all rights and remedies available to Bank under the Loan Documents or at law or equity, including all remedies provided under the Code (including disposal of the Collateral pursuant to the terms thereof).
 
9.2 Power of Attorney.  Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints Bank as its lawful attorney-in-fact, exercisable upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to:  (a) endorse Borrower’s name on any checks or other forms of payment or security; (b) sign Borrower’s name on any invoice or bill of lading for any Account or drafts against Account Debtors; (c) settle and adjust disputes and claims about the Accounts directly with Account Debtors, for amounts and on terms Bank determines reasonable; (d) make, settle, and adjust all claims under Borrower’s insurance policies; (e) pay, contest or settle any Lien, charge, encumbrance, security interest, and adverse claim in or to the Collateral, or any judgment based thereon, or otherwise take any action to terminate or discharge the same; and (f) transfer the Collateral into the name of Bank or a third party as the Code permits.  Borrower hereby appoints Bank as its lawful attorney-in-fact to sign Borrower’s name on any documents necessary to perfect or continue the perfection of Bank’s security interest in the Collateral regardless of whether an Event of Default has occurred until all Obligations (other than inchoate indemnity obligations) have been satisfied in full and Bank is under no further obligation to make Credit Extensions hereunder.  Bank’s foregoing appointment as Borrower’s attorney in fact, and all of Bank’s rights and powers, coupled with an interest, are irrevocable until all Obligations (other than inchoate indemnity obligations) have been fully repaid and performed and Bank’s obligation to provide Credit Extensions terminates.
 
9.3 Protective Payments.  If Borrower fails to obtain the insurance called for by Section 6.5 or fails to pay any premium thereon or fails to pay any other amount which Borrower is obligated to pay under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, Bank may obtain such insurance or make such payment, and all amounts so paid by Bank are Bank Expenses and immediately due and payable, bearing interest at the then highest rate applicable to the Obligations, and secured by the Collateral.  Bank will make reasonable efforts to provide Borrower with notice of Bank obtaining such insurance at the time it is obtained or within a reasonable time thereafter.  No payments by Bank are deemed an agreement to make similar payments in the future or Bank’s waiver of any Event of Default.
 
9.4 Application of Payments and Proceeds Upon Default.  If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Bank may apply any funds in its possession, whether from Borrower account balances, payments, proceeds realized as the result of any collection of Accounts or other disposition of the Collateral, or otherwise, to the Obligations in such order as Bank shall determine in its sole discretion.  Any surplus shall be paid to Borrower or other Persons legally entitled thereto; Borrower shall remain liable to Bank for any deficiency.  If Bank, in its good faith business judgment, directly or indirectly enters into a deferred payment or other credit transaction with any purchaser at any sale of Collateral, Bank shall have the option, exercisable at any time, of either reducing the Obligations by the principal amount of the purchase price or deferring the reduction of the Obligations until the actual receipt by Bank of cash therefor.
 
9.5 Bank’s Liability for Collateral.  So long as Bank complies with reasonable banking practices regarding the safekeeping of the Collateral in the possession or under the control of Bank, Bank shall not be liable or responsible for: (a) the safekeeping of the Collateral; (b) any loss or damage to the Collateral; (c) any diminution in the value of the Collateral; or (d) any act or default of any carrier, warehouseman, bailee, or other Person.  Borrower bears all risk of loss, damage or destruction of the Collateral.
 
9.6 No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative.  Bank’s failure, at any time or times, to require strict performance by Borrower of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall not waive, affect, or diminish any right of Bank thereafter to demand strict performance and compliance herewith or therewith.  No waiver hereunder shall be effective unless signed by the party granting the waiver and then is only effective for the specific instance and purpose for which it is given.  Bank’s rights and remedies under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are cumulative.  Bank has all rights and remedies provided under the Code, by law, or in equity.  Bank’s exercise of one right or remedy is not an election and shall not preclude Bank from exercising any other remedy under this Agreement or other remedy available at law or in equity, and Bank’s waiver of any Event of Default is not a continuing waiver.  Bank’s delay in exercising any remedy is not a waiver, election, or acquiescence.
 
9.7 Demand Waiver.  Borrower waives demand, notice of default or dishonor, notice of payment and nonpayment, notice of any default, nonpayment at maturity, release, compromise, settlement, extension, or renewal of accounts, documents, instruments, chattel paper, and guarantees held by Bank on which Borrower is liable, except when any such notice, demand or any other of the foregoing actions are specifically provided for in this Agreement.
 
9.8 Borrower Liability.  Each Borrower hereunder shall be jointly and severally obligated to repay all Credit Extensions made hereunder, regardless of which Borrower actually receives said Credit Extension, as if each Borrower hereunder directly received all Credit Extensions.  Each Borrower waives (a) any suretyship defenses available to it under the Code or any other applicable law, and (b) any right to require Bank to: (i) proceed against any Borrower or any other person; (ii) proceed against or exhaust any security; or (iii) pursue any other remedy.  Bank may exercise or not exercise any right or remedy it has against any Borrower or any security it holds (including the right to foreclose by judicial or non-judicial sale) without affecting any Borrower’s liability.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or other related document, each Borrower irrevocably waives all rights that it may have at law or in equity (including, without limitation, any law subrogating Borrower to the rights of Bank under this Agreement) to benefit from, or to participate in, any security for the Obligations as a result of any payment made by Borrower with respect to the Obligations in connection with this Agreement or otherwise.  If any payment is made to a Borrower in contravention of this Section, such Borrower shall hold such payment in trust for Bank and such payment shall be promptly delivered to Bank for application to the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured.
 
9.9 Ratification of Pledge Agreement. Borrower hereby (i) ratifies, confirms and reaffirms, all the terms and condition of the Pledge Agreement, (ii) acknowledges, confirms and agrees that “Loan Agreement” as defined therein includes this Agreement, and (iii) acknowledges, confirms and agrees that the Pledge Agreement shall secured Borrower’s Obligations to Bank pursuant to this Agreement.

11 CHOICE OF LAW, VENUE, JURY TRIAL WAIVER
 
New York law governs the Loan Documents without regard to principles of conflicts of law.  Borrower and Bank each submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the State and Federal courts in New York, New York; provided, however, that nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to operate to preclude Bank from bringing suit or taking other legal action in any other jurisdiction to realize on the Collateral or any other security for the Obligations, or to enforce a judgment or other court order in favor of Bank.  Borrower expressly submits and consents in advance to such jurisdiction in any action or suit commenced in any such court, and Borrower hereby waives any objection that it may have based upon lack of personal jurisdiction, improper venue, or forum non conveniens and hereby consents to the granting of such legal or equitable relief as is deemed appropriate by such court.  Borrower hereby waives personal service of the summons, complaints, and other process issued in such action or suit and agrees that service of such summons, complaints, and other process may be made by registered or certified mail addressed to Borrower at the address set forth in Section 10 of this Agreement and that service so made shall be deemed completed upon the earlier to occur of Borrower’s actual receipt thereof or three (3) days after deposit in the U.S. mails, proper postage prepaid.

 
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, BORROWER AND BANK EACH WAIVE THEIR RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING OUT OF OR BASED UPON THIS AGREEMENT, THE LOAN DOCUMENTS OR ANY CONTEMPLATED TRANSACTION, INCLUDING CONTRACT, TORT, BREACH OF DUTY AND ALL OTHER CLAIMS. THIS WAIVER IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR BOTH PARTIES TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT.  EACH PARTY HAS REVIEWED THIS WAIVER WITH ITS COUNSEL.
 

12 GENERAL PROVISIONS
 
12.1 Successors and Assigns.  This Agreement binds and is for the benefit of the successors and permitted assigns of each party.  Borrower may not assign this Agreement or any rights or obligations under it without Bank’s prior written consent (which may be granted or withheld in Bank’s discretion).  Bank has the right, without the consent of or notice to Borrower, to sell, transfer, assign, negotiate, or grant participation in all or any part of, or any interest in, Bank’s obligations, rights, and benefits under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default, Bank shall not assign any interest in the Loan Documents to an operating company which is a direct competitor of Borrower.
 
12.2 Indemnification.  Borrower agrees to indemnify, defend and hold Bank and its directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys, or any other Person affiliated with or representing Bank (each, an “Indemnified Person”) harmless against:  (a) all obligations, demands, claims, and liabilities (collectively, “Claims”) claimed or asserted by any other party in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents; and (b) all losses or expenses (including Bank Expenses) in any way suffered, incurred, or paid by such Indemnified Person as a result of, following from, consequential to, or arising from transactions between Bank and Borrower contemplated by the Loan Documents (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses), except for Claims and/or losses directly caused by such Indemnified Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.
 
12.3 Time of Essence.  Time is of the essence for the performance of all Obligations in this Agreement.
 
12.4 Severability of Provisions.  Each provision of this Agreement is severable from every other provision in determining the enforceability of any provision.
 
12.5 Correction of Loan Documents.  Bank may correct patent errors and fill in any blanks in the Loan Documents consistent with the agreement of the parties so long as Bank provides Borrower with written notice of such correction and allows Borrower at least ten (10) days to object to such correction.  In the event of such objection, such correction shall not be made except by an amendment signed by both Bank and Borrower.
 
12.6 Amendments in Writing; Waiver; Integration.  No purported amendment or modification of any Loan Document, or waiver, discharge or termination of any obligation under any Loan Document, shall be enforceable or admissible unless, and only to the extent, expressly set forth in a writing signed by the party against which enforcement or admission is sought.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, no oral promise or statement, nor any action, inaction, delay, failure to require performance or course of conduct shall operate as, or evidence, an amendment, supplement or waiver or have any other effect on any Loan Document.  Any waiver granted shall be limited to the specific circumstance expressly described in it, and shall not apply to any subsequent or other circumstance, whether similar or dissimilar, or give rise to, or evidence, any obligation or commitment to grant any further waiver.  The Loan Documents represent the entire agreement about this subject matter and supersede prior negotiations or agreements, including the Prior Loan Agreement.  All prior agreements, understandings, representations, warranties, and negotiations between the parties about the subject matter of the Loan Documents merge into the Loan Documents.
 
12.7 Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties on separate counterparts, each of which, when executed and delivered, is an original, and all taken together, constitute one Agreement.
 
12.8 Survival.  All covenants, representations and warranties made in this Agreement continue in full force until this Agreement has terminated pursuant to its terms and all Obligations (other than inchoate indemnity obligations and any other obligations which, by their terms, are to survive the termination of this Agreement) have been paid in full and satisfied.  The obligation of Borrower in Section 12.2 to indemnify Bank shall survive until the statute of limitations with respect to such claim or cause of action shall have run. Without limiting the foregoing, except as otherwise provided in Section 4.2, the grant of security interest by Borrower in Section 4.1 shall survive until the termination of all Bank Services Agreements.
 
12.9 Confidentiality.  In handling any confidential information, Bank shall exercise the same degree of care that it exercises for its own proprietary information, but disclosure of information may be made: (a) to Bank’s Subsidiaries or Affiliates (such Subsidiaries and Affiliates, together with Bank, collectively, “Bank Entities”); (b) to prospective transferees or purchasers of any interest in the Credit Extensions (provided, however, that any prospective transferee or purchaser shall have entered into an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those in this Section); (c) as required by law, regulation, subpoena, or other order; (d) to Bank’s regulators or as otherwise required in connection with Bank’s examination or audit; (e) as Bank considers appropriate in exercising remedies under the Loan Documents; and (f) to third-party service providers of Bank so long as such service providers have executed a confidentiality agreement with Bank with terms no less restrictive than those contained herein.  Confidential information does not include information that is either: (i) in the public domain or in Bank’s possession when disclosed to Bank, or becomes part of the public domain after disclosure to Bank (in each case, through no fault of Bank); or (ii) disclosed to Bank by a third party if Bank does not know that the third party is prohibited from disclosing the information.
