1. Recitals. This Agreement shall constitute a Financing Document and the Recitals and each reference to the Credit Agreement, unless otherwise expressly noted, will be deemed to reference the Credit Agreement as amended hereby. The Recitals set forth above shall be construed as part of this Agreement as if set forth fully in the body of this Agreement and capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Credit Agreement (including those capitalized terms used in the Recitals hereto).

2. Limited Consent. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, (a) notwithstanding Section 5.7 of the Credit Agreement, Agent and the Lenders party hereto hereby consent to the Project Disney Transaction and that the Project Disney Transaction shall not, in and of itself, constitute an “Event of Default” under the Credit Agreement and (b) notwithstanding Section 4.1(b) of the Credit Agreement, Agent and the Lenders party hereto hereby consent to an extension of the delivery date with respect to the Credit Parties’ audited financial statements for each of the fiscal years ended December 31, 2021 and December 31, 2022 to July 15, 2023 (or such later date as Agent may agree in its sole discretion). The consent set forth in this Section 2 is effective solely for the purposes set forth herein and shall be limited precisely as written and shall not be deemed to (i) be a consent to any amendment, waiver or modification of any other term or condition of the Credit Agreement or of any other Financing Document; (ii) be a consent to any amendment, waiver or modification of the Redemption Agreement; (iii) prejudice any right that Agent or Lenders have or may have in the future under or in connection with the Credit Agreement or any other Financing Document; (iv) constitute a consent to or waiver of any past, present or future Default or Event of Default or other violation of any provisions of the Credit Agreement or any other Financing Documents, (v) create any obligation to forbear from taking any enforcement action, or to make any further extensions of credit or (vi) establish a custom or course of dealing among any of the Credit Parties, on the one hand, or Agent or any Lender, on the other hand.

3. Amendments to Original Credit Agreement. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including, without limitation, the conditions to effectiveness set forth in Section 5 below, the Original Credit Agreement is hereby amended as follows:

(a) Section 1.1 of the Original Credit Agreement is hereby amened to add the following definition of “First Amendment Effective Date” in the appropriate alphabetical order therein:

““First Amendment Effective Date” means June 30, 2023.”

(b) The definition of “Revolving Loan Commitment Amount” in Section 1.1 of the Original Credit Agreement is hereby amended by deleting the last sentence of such defined term in its entirety and replacing it with the following:

“For the avoidance of doubt, the aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment Amount of all Lenders (i) on the Closing Date and at all times other than as described in clauses (ii) and (iii) below shall be $30,000,000, (ii) from the First Amendment Effective Date through and including August 30, 2023, $35,250,000, and (iii) if the Additional Tranche is fully activated by Borrowers pursuant to the terms of the Agreement such amount shall increase to $75,000,000.”

4. Representations and Warranties; Reaffirmation of Security Interest. Each Credit Party hereby confirms that all of the representations and warranties set forth in the Credit Agreement are true and correct in all material respects (without duplication of any materiality qualifier in the text of such representation or warranty) with respect to such Credit Party as of the date hereof except to the extent that any such representation or warranty relates to a specific date in which case such representation or warranty shall be true and correct as of such earlier date. Nothing herein is intended to impair or limit the validity, priority or extent of Agent’s security interests in and Liens on the Collateral. Each Credit Party acknowledges and agrees that the Credit Agreement, the other Financing Documents and this Agreement constitute the legal, valid and binding obligation of such Credit Party, and are enforceable against such Credit Party in accordance with its terms, except as the enforceability thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar laws relating to the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and by general equitable principles.

5. Conditions to Effectiveness. This Agreement shall become effective as of the date on which each of the following conditions has been satisfied, as determined by Agent in its sole discretion:

(a) Each Credit Party shall have delivered to Agent this Agreement, dated as of even date herewith, each executed by an authorized officer of such Credit Party;

(b) all representations and warranties of Credit Party contained herein shall be true and correct in all material respects (without duplication of any materiality qualifier in the text of such representation or warranty) as of the date hereof except to the extent that any such representation or warranty relates to a specific date in which case such representation or warranty shall be true and correct as of such earlier date (and such parties’ delivery of their respective signatures hereto shall be deemed to be its certification thereof);

(c) prior to and after giving effect to the agreements set forth herein, no Default or Event of Default shall exist under any of the Financing Documents; and

(d) Credit Parties shall have delivered such other documents, information, certificates, records, permits, and filings as the Agent may reasonably request.

6. Costs and Fees. In consideration of Agent’s agreement to enter into this Agreement, Borrowers agrees to pay Agent, for the benefit of all Revolving Lenders, an amendment fee in the amount of $250,000 (the “Amendment Fee”). Such fee shall be due and payable on the First Amendment Effective Date and, once paid, is non-refundable. If the Amendment Fee is not paid when due, Borrowers hereby authorize Agent to deduct all of such fees set forth in this Section 6 from the proceeds of one or more Revolving Loans made under the Credit Agreement.

7. Release. In consideration of the agreements of Agent and Lenders contained herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, each Credit Party, voluntarily, knowingly, unconditionally and irrevocably, with specific and express intent, for and on behalf of itself and all of its respective parents, subsidiaries, affiliates, members, managers, predecessors, successors, and assigns, and each of their respective current and former directors, officers, shareholders, agents, and employees, and each of their respective predecessors, successors, heirs, and assigns (individually and collectively, the “Releasing Parties”) does hereby fully and completely release, acquit and forever discharge each of Agent, Lenders, and each their respective parents, subsidiaries, affiliates, members, managers, shareholders, directors, officers and employees, and each of their respective predecessors, successors, heirs, and assigns (individually and collectively, the “Released Parties”), of and from any and all actions, causes of action, suits, debts, disputes, damages, claims, obligations, liabilities, costs, expenses and demands of any kind whatsoever, at law or in equity, whether matured or unmatured, liquidated or unliquidated, vested or contingent, choate or inchoate, known or unknown that the Releasing Parties (or any of them) has against the Released Parties or any of them (whether directly or indirectly). Each Credit Party acknowledges that the foregoing release is a material inducement to Agent’s and each Lender’s decision to enter into this Agreement and agree to the modifications contemplated hereunder, and has been relied upon by Agent and Lenders in connection therewith.

8. No Waiver or Novation. The execution, delivery and effectiveness of this Agreement shall not, except as expressly provided in this Agreement, operate as a waiver of any right, power or remedy of Agent, nor constitute a waiver of any provision of the Credit Agreement, the Financing Documents or any other documents, instruments and agreements executed or delivered in connection with any of the foregoing. Nothing herein is intended or shall be construed as a waiver of any existing Defaults or Events of Default under the Credit Agreement or the other Financing Documents or any of Agent’s rights and remedies in respect of such Defaults or Events of Default. This Agreement (together with any other document executed in connection herewith) is not intended to be, nor shall it be construed as, a novation of the Credit Agreement.

9. Affirmation. Except as specifically amended pursuant to the terms hereof, each Credit Party hereby acknowledges and agrees that the Credit Agreement and all other Financing Documents (and all covenants, terms, conditions and agreements therein) shall remain in full force and effect, and are hereby ratified and confirmed in all respects by such Credit Party. Each Credit Party covenants and agrees to comply with all of the terms, covenants and conditions of the Credit Agreement and the Financing Documents, notwithstanding any prior course of conduct, waivers, releases or other actions or inactions on Agent’s or any Lender’s part which might otherwise constitute or be construed as a waiver of or amendment to such terms, covenants and conditions.

10. Miscellaneous.
