RECITALS:

 

A.     The Borrower, the Administrative Agent, and the Grantors are parties to the Amended and Restated Pledge and Security Agreement, dated as of October 12, 2016 (as previously amended and as the same may from time to time be further amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified, the “Security Agreement”).

 

 

B.     The Borrower, the Grantors the Administrative Agent, and the Lenders party hereto desire to amend the Security Agreement to modify certain provisions thereof as set forth herein.

 

AGREEMENT:

 

In consideration of the premises and mutual covenants herein and for other valuable consideration, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders agree as follows:

 

Section 1. Definitions. Unless otherwise defined herein, each capitalized term used in this Amendment and not defined herein shall be defined in accordance with the Security Agreement.

 

Section 2. Amendments.

 

2.1     Amendments to Certain Definitions.

 

(i)     Excluded Deposit Account. The definition of “Excluded Deposit Account” in Section 1.01 of the Security Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety.

 

2.2     Deposit Accounts. Section 5.01(a) and Section 5.01(b) of the Security Agreement are hereby deleted in their entirety and replaced with the following:

 

(a)     On the Amendment No. 4 Effective Date, Borrower shall furnish to Administrative Agent a list of all of Borrower and the Grantors’ existing Deposit Accounts. Within 90 days after the Amendment No. 4 Effective Date, Borrower and the Grantors will execute, and cause Stearns Bank, as the Depositary Bank, to execute Deposit Account Control Agreements (in such form as reasonably agreed to by the Administrative Agent) encompassing no less than eighty percent (80%) of Borrower’s and the Grantors’ Cash (measured as of March 31, 2018), and shall thereafter maintain such Deposit Account Control Agreements.

(b)     Neither the Borrower nor any of the Grantors shall establish any new Deposit Accounts after the Amendment No. 4 Effective Date unless, prior to depositing any funds into the Deposit Account, the Borrower or the Grantor, the Administrative Agent, and the depository institution at which the account is to be opened enter into a Control Agreement pursuant to which such depository institution acknowledges the security interest of the Administrative Agent in such Deposit Account, agrees to comply with instructions originated by the Administrative Agent directing disposition of the funds in the Deposit Account without further consent from the Borrower or such Grantor, and agrees to subordinate and limit any security interest such depository institution may have in the Deposit Account and waive all rights of set-off with respect thereto (other than for customary fees and expenses and returned checks) on terms reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.
