(iii) If any change in Generally Accepted Accounting Principles after the date of this Loan Agreement is or shall be required to be applied to transactions then or thereafter in existence, and a violation of one or more provisions of this Loan Agreement shall have occurred or in the opinion of the Co-Borrowers would likely occur which would not have occurred or be likely to occur if no change in accounting principles had taken place, (a) the Co-Borrowers and the Lender agree that such violation shall not be considered to constitute an Event of Default or a Potential Event of Default for a period of thirty (30) days from the date a Co-Borrower notifies the Lender of the applicability of this Section 1.03( iii); (b) the Co-Borrowers and the Lender agree in such event to negotiate in good faith an amendment to this Loan Agreement which shall approximate to the extent possible the economic effect of the original financial covenants after taking into account such change in Generally Accepted Accounting Principles; and (c) if the Co-Borrowers and the Lender are unable to negotiate such an amendment within the thirty (30) day period described in clause (a) above, the Co-Borrowers shall have the option of (1) prepaying and terminating the Loan Facility (pursuant to all applicable provisions hereof) or (2) submitting the draft of such an amendment to a firm of independent certified public accountants acceptable to the Co- Borrowers and the Lender (each acting reasonably), which shall complete its draft of such amendment within thirty (30) days of submission and which amendment shall be promptly executed by the Co- Borrowers and the Lender and made effective; if the Co-Borrowers and the Lender cannot agree, the firm shall be selected by binding arbitration in Iselin, New Jersey in accordance with the rules then in effect of the American Arbitration Association and the amendment drafted by such firm shall thereafter be executed by the Co-Borrowers and the Lender and made effective. If the Co-Borrowers do not exercise either such option within said period, then as used in this Loan Agreement, Generally Accepted Accounting Principles shall mean generally accepted accounting principles in effect at the relevant date. The Co-Borrowers and the Lender agree that if the Co-Borrowers elect the option in clause (2) above, until such firm has been selected and such amendment has been executed and made effective, no such violation shall constitute an Event of Default or a Potential Event of Default. (iv) If any change in Generally Accepted Accounting Principles after the date of this Loan Agreement is required to be applied to transactions or conditions then or thereafter in existence, and the Lender shall assert that the effect of such change is or shall likely be to distort materially the effect of any of the definitions of financial terms in Article I of this Loan Agreement or any of the covenants of the Co-Borrowers in Article VIII of this Loan Agreement (hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Financial Provisions”), so that the intended economic effect of any of the Financial Provisions will not in fact be accomplished, then (a) the Lender shall notify the Co-Borrowers of such assertion, specifying the change in Generally Accepted Accounting Principles which is objected to, and until otherwise determined as provided below, the specified change in Generally Accepted Accounting Principles shall 19 [SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED REVOLVING CREDIT LOAN AGREEMENT]

not be made by the Co-Borrowers in its financial statements for the purpose of applying the Financial Provisions; and (b) the Lender and the Co-Borrowers shall follow the procedures set forth in subsection ( iii)(b) above and the first sentence of subsection ONO above. If the Co-Borrowers and the Lender are unable to agree on an amendment as provided in said subsection ( i )(b) and if the Co- Borrowers do not exercise either option set forth in the first sentence of said subsection ( iii)(c) within the specified period, then as used in this Loan Agreement, Generally Accepted Accounting Principles shall mean generally accepted accounting principles in effect at the relevant date, except that the specified change in Generally Accepted Accounting Principles which is objected to by the Lender shall not be made in applying the Financial Provisions. The Co-Borrowers and the Lender agree that if the Co- Borrowers elect the option in clause (2) of the first sentence of said subsection (iii)(c), until such independent accounting firm has been selected and such amendment has been executed and made effective, the specified change in Generally Accepted Accounting Principles shall not be made in applying the Financial Provisions. (v) All expenses of compliance with this Section 1.03 shall be paid for by the Co- Borrowers, except the Co-Borrowers and the Lender shall be responsible for their own costs and expenses associated with proceedings under subsection 1.03011Cc) hereof other than the cost and expense payable to the American Arbitration Association and any such accounting firm which shall be divided equally between the Lender on the one hand and the Co-Borrowers on the other.

Any Notice of Borrowing (or telephonic notice in lieu thereof) pursuant to this Section 2.01( i i) shall be irrevocable. Notwithstanding any term, condition, or provision of this Section 2.01(ii) to the contrary, at any time that the Co-Borrowers are availing themselves of the Lender’s electronic line of credit services in connection with the Loan Facility in accordance with the terms, conditions, and provisions of the Online Agreement, the Co-Borrowers may request a Borrowing by use of the Lender’s online banking system in accordance with the terms, conditions, and provisions of the Online Agreement.

The Lender shall make the proceeds of each such Loan available to the Co-Borrowers at the Lender’s office located in Iselin, New Jersey no later than 5:00 P.M. (Iselin, New Jersey time) on each such Borrowing Date and shall disburse such funds in Dollars and in immediately available funds to an account of the Co-Borrowers maintained with the Lender.

(b) The Loan Facility shall automatically expire on the Termination Date without further action on the part of the Lender, and all outstanding Loans shall be repaid in full on the Maturity Date, unless otherwise extended in writing by the Lender. Section 2.02 interest on the Loan Facility. (i) Rates of interest. (a) All Loans shall bear interest computed daily on the outstanding principal balance thereof from the date when made until paid in full, at a fluctuating interest rate per annum equal to the sum of (1) the LIBOR Rate, as adjusted each Business Day to reflect day-to-day changes in the LIBOR Rate plus (2) one hundred fifty basis points (1.50%). (b) Notwithstanding subsection (a) above and Section 2.02(ii) below, all agreements between the Co-Borrowers and the Lender are hereby expressly limited so that in no contingency or event whatsoever (whether by reason of acceleration of the maturity dates of the Loan Facility evidenced hereby or otherwise), shall the amount paid or agreed to be paid to the Lender for the use or the forbearance of the indebtedness evidenced hereby exceed the maximum rate permitted by Applicable Law. As used in this Section 2.02(0( b), the term “Applicable Law” shall mean the Law in effect as of the Closing Date; provided, however, that in the event there is a change in the Law which results in a higher permissible rate of interest, then this provision shall be governed by such new Law as of its effective date. In this regard, it is expressly agreed that it is the intent of the Co-Borrowers and the Lender in the execution, delivery and acceptance of this Loan Agreement, the Note, and the other Loan Documents to contract in strict compliance with the Laws of the State of New Jersey from time to time in effect. If, under or from any circumstances whatsoever, fulfillment of any provision hereof or of any of the other Loan Documents at the time of performance of such provision shall be due, shall involve transcending the limit of such validity prescribed by applicable Law, then the obligation to be fulfilled shall automatically be reduced to the limits of such validity and if under or from circumstances whatsoever the Lender should ever receive as interest in connection with the Loan Facility an amount which would exceed the highest lawful rate, such amount which would be excessive interest shall be applied to the reduction of the outstanding principal balance of the Loan Facility, and not to the payment of interest. This provision shall control every other provision of this Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents. (ii) interest Payments. Subject to the terms, conditions and provisions of Section 2.02(i ii and Section 2.04 below, interest accrued and unpaid on all Loans then outstanding shall be payable by the Co-Borrowers in arrears (a) on the first Business Day of each month during the term of this Loan Agreement, commencing on the first Business Day of the first month next following the making of each such Loan, (b) upon prepayment thereof, whether in full or in part, and (c) at maturity. (iii) Default Interest. Notwithstanding the rates of interest specified in Section 2.02(i) hereof and the payment dates specified in Section 2.02(ii) hereof, effective immediately upon the occurrence of any Event of Default under Section 9.01 of this Loan Agreement (whether or not the Lender has accelerated payment of the outstanding principal balance of the Loan Facility) and for as long thereafter as any such Event of Default shall be continuing, the outstanding principal balance of all Loans then outstanding and, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, any interest payments on all Loans not paid when due, shall bear interest at the Default Rate. The Co-Borrowers hereby acknowledge that: (a) such Default Rate is a material inducement to the Lender to make the Loan Facility available to the Co- Borrowers, (b) the Lender would not have made the Loan Facility available to the Co-Borrowers in the absence of the agreement of the Co-Borrowers to pay such Default Rate, (c) such Default Rate represents compensation for increased risk to the Lender that the Loan Facility will not be repaid and (d) such 22 [SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED REVOLVING CREDIT LOAN AGREEMENT]

GRAPHIC

 


Default Rate is not a penalty and represents a reasonable estimate of (1) the cost to the Lender in allocating its resources (both personnel and financial) to the on-going review, monitoring, administration and collection of the Loan Facility and (2) compensation to the Lender for losses that are difficult to ascertain. (iv) Computation of interest. Interest on all outstanding Loans shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in the period during which interest accrues and a year of 360 days. In computing interest on any Loan, the date of the making of the Loan shall be included and the date of payment shall be excluded; provided, however, that if a Loan is repaid on the same day on which it is made, one (1) day’s interest shall be paid on that Loan. (v) Changes: Legal Restrictions. In the event that after the date hereof (a) the adoption of any Law or the occurrence of any Change in Law or (b) the compliance by the Lender with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of Law and whether or not the failure to comply therewith would be unlawful) from any central bank or other Governmental Authority or quasi- governmental authority: (1) does or may impose, modify, or hold applicable, in the reasonable determination of the Lender, any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, FDIC insurance, capital allocation or similar requirement against assets held by, or deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances or loans by, commitments made, or other credit extended by, or any other acquisition of funds by, the Lender or any applicable lending office of the Lender (except, with respect to Loans bearing interest at the “Prime Rate”, to the extent that the reserve and FDIC insurance requirements are reflected in the definition of “Prime Rate”); or (2) does or is reasonably likely to impose on the Lender any other condition materially more burdensome in nature, extent or consequence than those in existence as of the Closing Date; or (3) imposes on the Lender or the London interbank market any other condition, cost, or expense affecting this Loan Agreement or LIBOR Rate Loans made by the Lender; or (4) subjects the Lender to any taxes on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto, and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to the Lender of making, renewing or maintaining the Loans or to reduce any amount receivable thereunder, then, in any such case, the Co- Borrowers shall promptly pay to the Lender, upon demand, such amount or amounts (based upon an allocation thereof by the Lender to the financing transactions contemplated by this Loan Agreement and effected by this Section 2.02(v] and provided that such additional amounts are also required to be paid by the Lender’s other similarly situated customers) as may be necessary to compensate the Lender for any such additional cost incurred or reduced amount received. The Lender shall deliver to the Co-Borrowers a written statement of the costs or reductions claimed and the basis therefor, and the allocation made by the Lender of such costs and reductions shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, if made in good faith. If the Lender subsequently recovers any amount previously paid by the Co-Borrowers pursuant to this Section 2.02( v ), the Lender shall, promptly after receipt of such refund and to the extent permitted by applicable Law, pay to the Co-Borrowers the amount of any such recovery. 23 [SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED REVOLVING CREDIT LOAN AGREEMENT]

The unused commitment fee shall accrue at all times during the Loan Period, including at any time during which one or more of the conditions in Section 3.02 hereof is not met, and shall be due and payable in quarterly installments in arrears on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December, commencing with the first such date to occur after the Closing Date, and on the last day of the Loan Period. (iii) Late Charge Fee. In the event that the entire amount of any payment, including, without limitation, interest and/or principal, required to be made by the Co-Borrowers under the Note, this Loan Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents shall not be received by the Lender when due, the Lender may charge, and if so charged, the Co-Borrowers shall pay, a late charge of ($0.05) for each dollar ($1.00) of each delinquent payment for the purpose of defraying the expense incident to the handling of such delinquent payment. (iv) Payment of Fees. The fees described in this Section 2.03 represent compensation for services rendered and to be rendered separate and apart from the lending of money or the provision of credit, and the obligation of the Co-Borrowers to pay each fee described herein shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, the obligation of the Co-Borrowers to pay interest and other fees and expenses otherwise described in this Loan Agreement. Fees shall be payable when due at the office of the Lender in Iselin, New Jersey in immediately available funds. All fees shall be non-refundable when paid. All fees described in this Section 2.03 which are expressed as a per annum charge shall be calculated on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in a 360-day year. Section 2.04 Prepayments. The Co-Borrowers may from time to time voluntarily prepay the Loan Facility, in whole or in part, without premium or fee, upon at least three (3) Business Days’ prior express written notice to the Lender. Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, in the event that any prepayments are made in connection with the termination of this Loan Agreement such prepayments (a) shall be made only upon fifteen (15) Business Days’ prior written notice to the Lender, (b) shall be applied in the inverse order of maturity, and (c) shall be accompanied by the payment of all accrued and unpaid interest and other fees, express or sums, if any, due on the Loan or Loans being prepaid and at any time that the Co-Borrowers are availing themselves of the Loan Sweep Services with respect to the Loan Facility, the Loan Facility may be voluntarily prepaid in accordance with the Cash Management Agreement. Section 2.05 Payments; Collection of Accounts. (i) Collection of Accounts. The Co-Borrowers are authorized to collect the Accounts and any other Proceeds of Collateral, at the Co-Borrowers’ expense, but such authority shall automatically terminate upon the occurrence of an Event of Default.

The Lender shall send a monthly invoice to the Co-Borrowers reflecting the accrued interest due and owing and all fees due and owing hereunder. The Co-Borrowers hereby agree that on the Business Day that any payment of principal, interest and fees are due, the Lender shall automatically charge the Co-Borrowers’ demand deposit account with the Lender, account number 759535537, which account shall be maintained with the Lender at all times throughout the term of the Loan Facility. The Co-Borrowers’ authorization of the Lender to charge such account having sufficient funds on deposit shall constitute payment of the amount so authorized notwithstanding the Lender’s failure to charge said account. Any failure or delay by the Lender in submitting invoices for interest and fee payments shall not discharge or relieve the Co-Borrowers of the obligation to make such payments into the demand deposit account. (iii) Apportionment of Payments. So long as there does not exist an Event of Default, all payments shall be applied first to the payment of all fees, expenses and other amounts due to the Lender (excluding principal and interest), then to accrued interest, and the balance on account of outstanding principal; provided, however, that after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Lender shall apply all payments remitted to the Lender in accordance with the terms, conditions and provisions of Section 9.03 of this Loan Agreement. (iv) Payments on Non-13usiness Days.

All entries in the Loan Account shall be made in accordance with the Lender’s customary accounting practices as in effect from time to time. The Lender will render a statement of the Loan Account upon the request of the Co-Borrowers.

In that event, only those items expressly objected to in such notice shall be deemed to be disputed by the Co-Borrowers. Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, the Lender’s entries in the Loan Account evidencing Loans and other financial accommodations made from time to time shall be final, binding and conclusive upon the Co-Borrowers (absent manifest error) as to the existence and amount of the Obligations recorded in the Loan Account. The Lender, in its discretion, may charge any or all interest, fees and expenses incurred by the Co-Borrowers hereunder to the Loan Account. Section 2.06 Special Provisions Governing LIBOR Rate Loans. Notwithstanding other provisions of this Loan Agreement to the contrary, if any, if on any date on which the LIBOR Rate would 25 [SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED REVOLVING CREDIT LOAN AGREEMENT]

GRAPHIC

 


otherwise be determined, the Lender shall have determined (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that: (i) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the LIBOR Rate, or (ii) a contingency has occurred which materially and adversely affects the London interbank eurodollar market relating to the LIBOR Rate; or (iii) the making, maintaining, or funding of a Loan at the LIBOR Rate has been made impracticable or unlawful by compliance by the Lender in good faith with any Law or any interpretation or application thereof by any Governmental Authority or with any request or directive of any such Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of Law); or (iv) the LIBOR Rate will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Lender of the establishment or maintenance of a Loan at the LIBOR Rate; or (v) after making all reasonable efforts, deposits of the relevant amount in Dollars for any portion of the Loan to which the LIBOR Rate applies are not available to the Lender with respect to such portion of the Loan, or to banks generally, in the London interbank eurodollar market, then the Lender shall promptly so notify the Co-Borrowers thereof. Upon such date as shall be specified in any such notice (which shall not be earlier than the date such notice is given), the obligation of the Lender to maintain the Loans at the LIBOR Rate shall be suspended at which time the entire outstanding principal balance of the Loans shall automatically convert to Prime Rate Loans. Section 2.07 Increased Capital: Increased Costs Generally. (i) If either (a) a Change in Law occurs or (b) compliance by the Lender with any guideline or request from any central bank or other Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law and whether or not the failure to comply therewith would be unlawful) affects or would affect the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by the Lender or any corporation controlling the Lender and the Lender reasonably determines that the amount of such capital is increased by or based upon the existence of the Lender’s commitment to make the Loan Facility and other commitments of this type, then, upon demand by the Lender, the Co- Borrowers shall immediately pay to the Lender, from time to time as specified by the Lender, additional amounts sufficient to compensate the Lender in the light of such circumstances (provided such additional amounts are also required to be paid by the Lender’s other similarly situated customers), to the extent that the Lender reasonably determines in good faith that such increase in capital to be allocable to the existence of the Lender’s commitment to fund the Loan Facility. A certificate as to such amounts submitted to the Co-Borrowers by the Lender (which shall include a reasonable explanation of the basis therefor), shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding for all purposes. (ii) If any Change in Law shall: (a) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, the Lender (except any reserve requirement reflected in the LIBOR Rate); or (b) subject the Lender to any Taxes (other than (1) Indemnified Taxes, (2) Taxes described in clauses ( ii) through (iii) of the definition of Excluded Taxes and (3) Connection Income Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or 26 [SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED REVOLVING CREDIT LOAN AGREEMENT]

(c) impose on the Lender or the London interbank market, any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Loan Agreement or the Loans made by the Lender, and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to the Lender of making, converting to, continuing or maintaining any Loans or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loans, or to increase the cost to the Lender, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by the Lender (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon the written request of the Lender (which shall include a reasonable explanation of the basis for such request), the Co-Borrowers shall promptly pay to the Lender such additional amount or amounts that will compensate the Lender for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

The Lender shall have no duty to verify the identity of any Person representing himself as one of the officers or employees authorized to make such request on behalf of any Co-Borrower provided that the Person making the request is on such Co-Borrower’s authorized list. The Lender shall not incur any liability to the Co-Borrowers in acting upon any telephonic notice referred to above which the Lender believes in good faith to have been given by a duly Authorized Officer or other Person authorized to borrow on behalf of a Co-Borrower or for otherwise acting in good faith under this Section 2.08.

security or collateral given to the Lender to secure the repayment of the Obligations or any other liability or obligation of any Co-Borrower to the Lender. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, the Lender may proceed directly and immediately, without notice, against any Co- Borrower to collect and recover the full amount, or any portion of, the Obligations without first proceeding against any other Co-Borrower or any other Person or against any security or collateral for the Obligations, each Co-Borrower hereby agreeing that the Lender shall be under no obligation to marshal any assets in favor of any Co-Borrower or against or in payment of any or all of the Obligations; and (iv) it is intended by the Co-Borrowers and the Lender that the terms, conditions, and provisions of this Loan Agreement are severable, and that the joint and several nature of the liability of each Co-Borrower for the Obligations not constitute a fraudulent conveyance under the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act, as in effect from time to time (hereinafter referred to as the “UFTA”), the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, as in effect from time to time (hereinafter referred to as the “UFCA”), or Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code, or as a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer under the applicable provisions of any other state or Federal bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer or conveyance, liquidation, conservatorship, moratorium, rearrangement, receivership, reorganization, debtor relief, or other law affecting the rights of creditors generally (hereinafter collectively referred to as “Debtor Relief Laws”) and that, in any action or proceeding involving any Debtor Relief Laws: (a) if any clause or provision of this Loan Agreement shall be held invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part in any jurisdiction, then such invalidity or unenforceability shall affect only such clause or provision, or part thereof, in such jurisdiction and shall not in any manner affect such clause or provision in any other jurisdiction, or any other clause or provision in this Loan Agreement in any jurisdiction; and (b) if all or any portion of (1) the Obligations or (2) any security interest in any Collateral granted by any Co-Borrower in favor or for the benefit of the Lender in connection with the Obligations is held or determined to be void, invalid, or unenforceable against any Co-Borrower as a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer on account of or as a result of the amount of such Co- Borrower’s aggregate liability under the Loan, then, notwithstanding any other term, condition, or provision of this Loan Agreement or any other Loan Document to the contrary, the aggregate amount of such liability shall be, without any further action by the Lender, the Co-Borrowers, or any other Person, automatically limited and reduced to the highest amount which is valid and enforceable against such Co- Borrower as determined in such action or proceeding to not constitute such a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, which amount (without limiting the generality of the foregoing) may be an amount which is not greater than the greatest of: (A) the fair consideration actually received by such Co-Borrower under the terms of and as a result of the Loan, including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, and to the extent not inconsistent with applicable Federal and state law affecting the enforceability of notes generally, distributions or advances made to one or more of the Co- Borrowers with the proceeds of the credit extended hereunder in exchange for its execution and delivery of this Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents; or (B) the excess of (x) the amount of the fair saleable value of the assets of such Co-Borrower as of the date of this Loan Agreement as determined in accordance with applicable Federal and state law governing determinations of the insolvency of debtors as in effect on the date thereof over (y) the amount of all liabilities of such Co-Borrower as of the date of this Loan Agreement, also as determined on the basis of applicable Federal and state law governing the insolvency of debtors as in effect on the date thereof; or 61 [SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED REVOLVING CREDIT LOAN AGREEMENT]

(v) if (a) any court of competent jurisdiction holds that the Co-Borrowers are guarantors and not jointly and severally liable for the Loan or (b) bankruptcy or reorganization proceedings at any time are instituted by or against any Co-Borrower under any Debtor Relief Laws, each Co-Borrower hereby: (1) until indefeasible payment in full in cash of the Obligations, hereby expressly and irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent possible, on behalf of such Co-Borrower, any and all rights at law or in equity to subrogation, to reimbursement, to exoneration, to contribution, to indemnification, to set off or to any other rights that could accrue to a surety against a principal, to a guarantor against a maker or obligor, to an accommodation party against the party accommodated, to a holder or transferee against a maker, or to the holder of a claim against any Person, and that such Co-Borrower may have or hereafter acquire against any Person in connection with or as a result of such Co-Borrower’s execution, delivery, and/or performance of this Loan Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents to which such Co-Borrower is a party or otherwise; (2) expressly and irrevocably waives any “claim” (as such term is defined in the Bankruptcy Code) of any kind against any other Co-Borrower, and further agrees that it shall not have or assert any such rights against any Person (including any surety), either directly or as an attempted set off to any action commenced against such Co-Borrower by the Lender or any other Person; and (3) acknowledges and agrees (A) that this waiver is intended to benefit the Lender and shall not limit or otherwise affect such Co-Borrower’s liability hereunder or the enforceability of this Loan Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, and (B) that the Lender and their successors and assigns are intended beneficiaries of this waiver, and the agreements set forth in this Section 10.20 and their rights under this Section 10.20 shall survive payment in full of the Obligations; and (vi) in the event the obligations of any Co-Borrower in connection with the Loan or any of the other Loan Documents are held or determined to be void, invalid, or unenforceable, in whole or in part, such holding or determination shall not impair or affect (a) the validity and enforceability of this Loan Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or the Obligations against any other Co-Borrower or obligor, which validity and enforceability shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with the terms hereof; or (b) the validity and enforceability of any clause or provision not so held to be void, invalid or unenforceable as against the Co-Borrowers; and (vii) to the extent that any payment to, or realization by, the Lender on the Obligations exceeds the limitations of this Section 10.20 and is otherwise subject to avoidance and recovery in any such proceeding, the amount subject to avoidance shall in all events be limited to the amount by which such actual payment or realization exceeds such limitation, and this Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents as limited shall in all events remain in full force and effect and be fully enforceable against each Co-Borrower.

MASTER ASSIGNMENT AGREEMENT This Master Assignment Agreement (as amended and supplemented from time to time, together with all Exhibits and any Riders attached hereto, the “Agreement”) is made to be effective as of September 5, 2017 (“Effective Date”) by and among KEY EQUIPMENT FINANCE, A DIVISION OF KEYBANK NATIONAL ASSOCIATION (“KEF”), a national banking association, KEY GOVERNMENT FINANCE, INC. (“KGF”), a Colorado corporation, and WAYSIDE TECHNOLOGY GROUP, INC. (“Vendor”), a Delaware corporation. Unless otherwise expressly designated, the term “KEY” shall mean KEF and KGF collectively. Vendor may enter into tax leases, installment purchases, loans or other types of financings (“Financings”) with state and local government entities, 501(c)(3) nonprofit entities and commercial entities (each a “Customer”) pursuant to which Vendor will finance the acquisition in the United States of equipment and other personal property (“Equipment”), licenses to use software and related proprietary information and related documentation (“Software Licenses”) and certain related maintenance and other related services purchased from third parties (the “Services”). The Equipment, Software Licenses and Services are collectively called “Products”. If Vendor wishes to have a Financing subject to this Agreement, Vendor will document and originate Financings in its own name at its sole risk and expense on the approved documents, the form of which are attached hereto as Exhibit 3. After execution, delivery and commencement of a Financing, Vendor may wish from time to time to sell, assign and transfer to KEY all right, title and interest of Vendor in and to the Interests (as defined in Section 1(b) below and set forth in a Specification of Interests) pursuant to the terms and conditions of a Specification of Interests (“Specification”), in the form of Exhibit 1 attached hereto. Financings (a) in which the underlying user of the Product(s) is the federal government or an agency or instrumentality of the federal government or (b) involving a three party structure with a conduit issuer shall not be assigned under this Agreement. In consideration of the mutual covenants set forth herein, the parties agree as follows. 1. Conveyance; Consideration; Interests. (a) In exchange for KEY’s payment of the consideration set forth in the applicable Specification (“Consideration”), without the need for a bill of sale unless expressly required in a Specification, effective as of the transfer date set forth in the Specification (“Transfer Date”), Vendor hereby sells, assigns, and transfers to KEY, on a non-recourse basis except as otherwise provided herein, all of Vendor’s right, title and interest in and to the Interests but none of Vendor’s obligations in and under the Interests other than the obligation not to disturb the Customer’s quiet enjoyment. KEY hereby accepts such sale, assignment, and transfer and KEY shall be entitled to exercise all right, title and interest in and to the Interests including, without limitation, billing, collecting and servicing the account. Except as provided herein, KEY acknowledges and agrees that it shall have no recourse against the Vendor (and Vendor shall have no liability to KEY) if any Customer fails to make any payments under the Financing Documents, and Vendor acknowledges that it may not prohibit an assignment, pledge, sale, transfer or exchange of Key’s rights in the Interests (in compliance with the terms of this Agreement). Nothing herein or otherwise arising shall obligate KEY to purchase any Financings. If KEY has approved a Customer credit application, the approval shall be effective for 90 days unless the approval provides otherwise and shall be subject to no material adverse change in the business, status, operations, financial condition or prospects of the Vendor or Obligor (“MAC”). An “Obligor” means the Customer and any guarantor with respect to a Financing. (b) The term “Interests” shall mean all of Vendor’s right, title and interest in and to the Financing and all Products financed thereby as described in the Specification, together with all proceeds (cash and noncash) thereof arising from and after the Transfer Date including, without limitation, (i) the Financing Documents (as defined below) together with the right to receive any and all sums due and to become due thereunder or recoverable in connection therewith including, without limitation, insurance proceeds, condemnation proceeds, any residual or reversionary interest in the Equipment or Software Licenses, and the right to initiate and conclude claims and proceedings in connection therewith; (ii) the Equipment and Software Licenses described in such Financing Documents; (iii) any guaranty or other credit enhancement executed in connection with the Financing Documents to the extent it relates to the Interests (each a “Credit Enhancement”) including, without limitation, the right to receive sums recoverable in connection therewith; and (iv) certain agreements including,

without limitation, bills of sale with the Product vendors, together with all manufacturers’, suppliers’ and, if applicable, Vendor’s warranties with respect to Equipment and Software Licenses (each a “Supplier Agreement”). The term “Financing Documents” shall include the Financing, any Credit Enhancement and such additional documentation executed or delivered in connection with the Financing described in the Specification. The term “Transaction Documents” shall mean the Financing Documents and related Supplier Agreements. (c) The parties intend for each assignment of Interests to be a complete sale to KEY, except as otherwise provided herein on a non-recourse basis, of 100% of the Interests subject thereto and not a loan or extension of credit by KEY to Vendor. If any assignment is found by a court of competent authority to be other than a sale, in order to secure the obligations of Vendor to KEY, (i) Vendor hereby grants to KEY a continuing first priority security interest in all right, title and interest of Vendor in and to the Interests, (ii) the Specification shall be deemed to be a security agreement, and (iii) KEY shall have the rights and remedies of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code (“UCC”) and other applicable law. KEY shall be entitled to file UCC financing statements naming Vendor as debtor/assignor and KEY as secured party/assignee with respect to the Interests, and Vendor shall cooperate with KEY in perfecting and foreclosing this security interest against Vendor and competing creditors including, without limitation, in obtaining any required signatures, lien searches, waivers and subordination agreements. (d) KEY may at all reasonable times, after giving Vendor 10 days prior written notice, inspect and audit such of Vendor’s books and records as are directly relevant to the Interests,; provided that Vendor shall not be obligated under this Section 1.1(d) to provide any information the disclosure of which would adversely affect the attorney- client privilege between Vendor and its counsel. All confidential information provided pursuant to this Agreement shall be subject to the confidentiality agreement dated July 5, 2017 between the parties. 2. Delivery of Documents. (a) For each Specification, Vendor shall deliver to KEY on or before the Transfer Date, the Specification, the Transaction Documents set forth in the Specification including, but not limited to, the following: (i) The executed chattel paper original of the Financing; (ii) Certified true, correct and complete copies of the other Financing Documents including, without limitation, a certificate of delivery and acceptance, and all other Transaction Documents set forth in the Specification; (iii) If requested by KEY, a copy Vendor’s or the supplier’s invoice correctly showing all applicable Products and the cost thereof and a bill of sale; (iv) A Notice of Assignment (“Notice”) duly executed by Vendor in the forms similar to the samples attached hereto as Exhibit 2; (v) Satisfactory evidence that UCC-1 financing statements have been timely and property filed against the Customer; (vi) A UCC-3 financing statement executed by Vendor as secured party or a notation on the UCC-1 financing statement in either case naming KEY as assignee, assigning to KEY all financing statements filed in favor of Vendor with respect to the to Financing; (vii) Such documents and instruments as are reasonably required to assign to KEY any warranties under the Supplier Agreements solely to the extent applicable to the Equipment; and (viii) Such other documents and instruments as are reasonably required by KEY. (b) If KEY receives a certified copy of an original document and is required to produce the original of any such document to exercise any rights or remedies or to protect its interests, Vendor shall, within 5 business days of a written request by KEY, provide KEY with the original of such document. 3. Representations, Warranties and Covenants of Vendor as to the Transaction Documents. (a) With respect to each Specification that Vendor executes and presents to KEY, Vendor represents, warrants and covenants, effective on the date on which Vendor executes such Specification and on the Transfer Date, as follows: (i) Each of the Transaction Documents to which the Vendor is a party has been duly and validly authorized, executed and delivered by Vendor, is in full force and effect, and constitutes legal, valid and binding obligations of Vendor enforceable against Vendor in accordance with their terms, except as limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally or as limited by laws relating to the availability of specific performance, injunctive relief, or other equitable remedies (“Enforceability Exception”).
