(e) Mandatory Prepayments.
Commencing with the fiscal
year ending September 30, 2021 and for each fiscal year thereafter until the Term Loan 9 and/or Term Loan 10, in each case, are paid in
full, the Company shall prepay Term Loan 9 and Term Loan 10 on a pro rata basis on the following January 31st, in an amount
equal to 50% of the excess cash flow of the Company (as defined in the Credit Agreement) for such fiscal year (in each case, an “Excess
Cash Flow Payment”), provided that for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2021 the Excess Cash Flow Payment, if any, shall
be calculated only for the period from April 30, 2021 through September 30, 2021. Excess Cash Flow shall be calculated for each fiscal
year based on (a) the Company’s adjusted EBITDA (as defined in the Credit Agreement), minus (b) cash interest expense, minus (c)
cash taxes paid or cash distributions made for payment of taxes, minus (d) principal payments paid in respect of long-term indebtedness
(excluding any principal reduction on Term Loan 9 or Term Loan 10, in each case, with respect to Excess Cash Flow and excluding principal
payments on the Revolving Facility), minus (e) capital expenditures not funded by advances under the Equipment Loan as specified under
the Credit Agreement.
Upon an event of default,
which includes certain customary events such as, among other things, a failure to make required payments when due, a failure to comply
with covenants, certain bankruptcy and insolvency events, and defaults under other material indebtedness, FIB may cease advancing funds,
increase the interest rate on outstanding balances, accelerate amounts outstanding, terminate the agreement and foreclose on all collateral.
The Company has also obtained a life insurance policy in an amount not less than $5.0 million for its President and Chief Executive Officer
and provided FIB an assignment of such life insurance policy as collateral.
