RECITALS

 

WHEREAS, Loan Parties and Lender are parties to that certain Loan, Guaranty and Security Agreement dated as of March 30, 2018 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Loan Agreement”) pursuant to which Lender provides Borrower with certain financial accommodations.

 

WHEREAS, the Borrower has requested and Lender has agreed to amend the Loan Agreement as provided herein, in each case, subject to the terms and conditions of this Amendment.

 

AGREEMENT

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the continued performance by each of the parties hereto of their respective promises and obligations under the Loan Agreement and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

 

1.             Definitions. All capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings given to them in the Loan Agreement.

 

2.             Amendments to Loan Agreement. Subject to satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 3 below, the Loan Agreement is hereby amended as follows:

 

Section 2.3(c)(ii) will be amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

 

“In addition to any other payments or amounts due and payable hereunder, Borrower shall pay to Bank, without interest, an amount equal to the Digital Account Adjustment Amount in installments of $75,000 beginning on August 2, 2019 and continuing on each Friday in each calendar month thereafter during the term hereof until all Advances and interest thereon have been paid in full (with the last installment being in the amount necessary to pay such Digital Account Adjustment Amount in full). Any such payment shall be applied to the Obligations as described in Section 2.5 below.
