(a)  Revolving Loans. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each Lender with a Revolving Loan Commitment will severally (and not jointly), from time to time prior to the Maturity Date, at Borrower Representative's request, make revolving loans to Borrowers ("Revolving Loans"); provided, that after giving effect to each such Revolving Loan and Swingline Loans, (A)  the outstanding balance of all Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans plus fees and expenses which are due and payable by Borrower under this Agreement but which have not been paid or charged to the Loan Account will not exceed the lesser of (x) the Maximum Revolving Facility Amount minus the amount of Reserves established against the Maximum Revolving Facility Amount and (y) the Borrowing Base, (B) the sum of each Lender's outstanding balance of Revolving Loans will not exceed such Lender's Revolving Loan Commitment and (C) none of the other Loan Limits for Revolving Loans will be exceeded. All Revolving Loans shall be made in and repayable in Dollars.

(b)  Reserves.  Agent may, with concurrent written notice to Borrower Representative, from time to time establish and revise reserves against the Borrowing Base and the Maximum Revolving Facility Amount in such amounts and of such types as Agent deems appropriate in its Permitted Discretion (collectively, "Reserves" and individually, a “Reserve”) to reflect (i) events, conditions, contingencies or risks which affect or may affect (A) the Collateral or its value, or the enforceability, perfection or priority of the security interests and other rights of Agent in the Collateral or (B) the assets or business prospects of any Borrower or any Loan Party (including the Dilution Reserve), (ii) Agent's good faith concern that any Collateral report or financial information furnished by or on behalf of any Borrower or any Loan Party to Agent is or may have been incomplete, inaccurate or misleading in any material respect, (iii) any fact or circumstance which Agent determines in good faith constitutes, or could reasonably be expected to constitute, a Default or Event of Default, (iv) past due Taxes, (v) past due amounts owing to sub-contractors or (vi) any other events or circumstances which Agent determines in good faith make the establishment or revision of a Reserve prudent. In no event shall the establishment of a Reserve in respect of a particular actual or contingent liability obligate Agent to make advances to pay such liability or otherwise obligate Agent with respect thereto.

(c)  Minimum Utilization.  Subject to the mandatory payment requirements of this Agreement, until the Maturity Date, Borrowers (i) shall maintain an outstanding principal amount of the Loans in a minimum principal amount equal to the Minimum Outstanding Amount at all times and (ii) shall not be permitted to voluntarily repay the Loans if any such payment would result in the outstanding principal amount of the Loans being less than the Minimum Outstanding Amount; provided that, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Borrowers shall not at any time be deemed to be in breach of this Section 2.1(c) for failing to maintain the Minimum Outstanding Amount as a result of application of the payments to the Obligations in accordance with Sections 6.1 and 6.2 hereof; provided that Borrowers shall re-borrow an amount sufficient to comply with this Section 2.1(c) as soon as they may do so pursuant to Section 2.1(a). Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, however, Borrowers shall be required to repay the Loans if and to the extent such repayment is required under Section 2.5, even if such payment would result in the outstanding principal amount of Loans falling below the Minimum Outstanding Amount; provided that Borrowers shall re-borrow an amount sufficient to comply with this Section 2.1(c) as soon as they may do so pursuant to Section 2.1(a).

(a)        Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, at any time (i) after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default or Event of Default or (ii) that any of the other applicable conditions precedent set forth in Section 4 or otherwise are not satisfied, Agent is authorized by each Borrower and each Lender, from time to time, in Agent's Permitted Discretion, to make such Revolving Loans to, or for the benefit of, any Borrower, as Agent in its Permitted Discretion deems necessary or desirable (1) to maintain, preserve or protect the Collateral, or any portion thereof, or (2) to enhance the likelihood of repayment of the Obligations (the Revolving Loans described in this Section 2.2 shall be referred to as "Protective Advances"). Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, Agent may disburse the proceeds of any Protective Advance to any Borrower or to such other Person(s) as Agent determines in its Permitted Discretion. All Protective Advances shall be payable immediately upon demand. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) the aggregate amount of all Protective Advances outstanding at any time shall not exceed an amount equal to ten percent (10%) of the Maximum Revolving Facility Amount (without giving effect to any Reserves established against the Maximum Revolving Facility Amount) and (ii) after giving effect to any such Protective Advances, the outstanding balance of all Protective Advances, Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans will not exceed the Maximum Revolving Facility Amount.

(b)        Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Agreement, at the request of Borrower Representative, Agent may in its sole discretion (but with absolutely no obligation), make Revolving Loans to any Borrower, on behalf of the Lenders with a Revolving Loan Commitment, in amounts that exceed Excess Availability (any such excess Revolving Loans are herein referred to herein, collectively, as "Overadvances"); provided, that, no Overadvance shall result in a Default or Event of Default due to any Borrower's failure to comply with Section 2.1(a) for so long as such Overadvance remains outstanding in accordance with the terms of this paragraph, but solely with respect to the amount of such Overadvance. Overadvances may be made even if the conditions precedent set forth in Section 4.2 have not been satisfied. The authority of Agent to make Overadvances is limited to an aggregate amount not to exceed an amount equal to ten percent (10%) of the Maximum Revolving Facility Amount (without giving effect to any established against the Maximum Revolving Facility Amount) at any time. No Overadvance may remain outstanding for more than thirty (30) days and no Overadvance shall cause any Lender's outstanding balance of Revolving Loans to exceed its Revolving Loan Commitment. Required Lenders may, at any time, revoke Agent's authorization to make Overadvances, provided that any such revocation must be in writing and shall become effective prospectively upon Agent's receipt thereof.

(c)        Upon the making of any Protective Advance or Overadvance (whether before or after the occurrence of a Default or Event of Default), each Lender with a Revolving Loan Commitment shall be deemed, without further action by any party hereto, to have unconditionally and irrevocably purchased from Agent, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation in such Protective Advance or Overadvance, as applicable, in proportion to its Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Loan Commitment. Agent may, at any time, require the applicable Lenders to fund their participations. From and after the date, if any, on which any Lender is required to fund its participation in any Protective Advance or Overadvance, as applicable, purchased hereunder, Agent shall promptly distribute to such Lender, such Lender's Pro Rata Share of all payments of principal and interest and all proceeds of Collateral received by Agent in respect of such Loan. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that (i) Agent may elect to fund a Protective Advance or Overadvance through one or more of its Affiliates (including, without limitation, Eclipse Business Capital SPV, LLC) on behalf of Agent for administrative convenience and (ii) any such funding shall constitute a Protective Advance or Overadvance, as applicable, as if made by Agent subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

(a)        Borrower Representative shall request each Revolving Loan by submitting such request by ABLSoft (or, if requested by Agent, by delivering, in writing or by an Approved Electronic Communication, a Notice of Borrowing substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto) (each such request a "Notice of Borrowing"). Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Agent shall, except as provided in Section 2.2, deliver the amount of the Revolving Loan requested in the Notice of Borrowing for credit to any account of Borrower as Borrower Representative may specify at a bank acceptable to Agent (provided, that such account must be one identified on Section 3 of the Perfection Certificate and approved by Agent as an account to be used for funding of Loan proceeds) (any such account, a "Funding Account") by wire transfer of immediately available funds (i) on the same day if the Notice of Borrowing is received by Agent on or before 11:00 a.m. Central Time on a Business Day or (ii) on the immediately following Business Day if the Notice of Borrowing is received by Agent after 11:00 a.m. Central Time on a Business Day or on a day that is not a Business Day. Agent shall charge to the Revolving Loan Agent's usual and customary fees for the wire transfer of each Loan.

(b)        Promptly following receipt of a Notice of Borrowing in accordance with this Section, Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and of the amount of such Lender's Revolving Loan to be made as part of the requested borrowing. Each Lender shall make each Revolving Loan to be made by such Lender hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds by 12:00 p.m., Central Time, to the account of Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders in an amount equal to such Lender's Pro Rata Share. Unless Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any borrowing that such Lender will not make available to Agent such Lender's share of such borrowing, Agent may assume that such Lender has made (or will make) such share available on such date in accordance with this Section and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to Borrowers a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable borrowing available to Agent, then the applicable Lender and Borrowers severally agree to pay to Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to Borrowers to but excluding the date of payment to Agent, at the interest rate applicable to such Revolving Loans. If such Lender pays such amount to Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender's Revolving Loan included in such borrowing.

(a)        Agent, Swingline Lender and the Lenders agree that in order to facilitate the administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, promptly after Borrower Representative requests a Revolving Loan, the Swingline Lender may elect to have the terms of this Section 2.4 apply to such borrowing request by advancing, on behalf of the Lenders with a Revolving Loan Commitment and in the amount requested, same day funds to Borrowers (each such Loan made solely by the Swingline Lender pursuant to this Section 2.4 is referred to in this Agreement as a "Swingline Loan"), with settlement among them as to the Swingline Loans to take place on a periodic basis as set forth in Section 2.4(c). Each Borrower hereby authorizes the Swingline Lender to, and Swingline Lender shall, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein (but without any further written notice required), deliver the amount of the Swingline Loan requested to the applicable Funding Account (i) on the same day if the Notice of Borrowing is received by Agent on or before 11:00 a.m. Central Time on a Business Day or (ii) on the immediately following Business Day if the Notice of Borrowing is received by Agent after 11:00 a.m. Central Time on a Business Day or on a day that is not a Business Day. The aggregate amount of Swingline Loans outstanding at any time shall not exceed $3,000,000. Swingline Lender shall not make any Swingline Loan if the requested Swingline Loan exceeds Excess Availability (before giving effect to such Swingline Loan).

(b)        Upon the making of a Swingline Loan (whether before or after the occurrence of a Default and regardless of whether a Settlement has been requested with respect to such Swingline Loan), each Lender with a Revolving Loan Commitment shall be deemed, without further action by any party hereto, to have unconditionally and irrevocably purchased from the Swingline Lender, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation in such Swingline Loan in proportion to its Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Loan Commitment. The Swingline Lender may, at any time, require the applicable Lenders to fund their participations in any such Swingline Loan. From and after the date, if any, on which any Lender is required to fund its participation in any Swingline Loan purchased hereunder, Agent shall promptly distribute to such Lender, such Lender's Pro Rata Share of all payments of principal and interest and all proceeds of Collateral received by Agent in respect of such Swingline Loan.

(c)        Agent, on behalf of Swingline Lender, shall request settlement (a "Settlement") with respect to Swingline Loans with the Lenders holding a Revolving Loan Commitment on at least a weekly basis or on any date that Agent elects, by notifying the applicable Lenders of such requested Settlement by facsimile, telephone, or e-mail no later than 12:00 p.m. Central Time on the date of such requested Settlement (the "Settlement Date"). Each applicable Lender (other than the Swingline Lender) shall transfer the amount of such Lender's Pro Rata Share of the outstanding principal amount of the Swingline Loan with respect to which Settlement is requested to Agent, to such account of Agent as Agent may designate, not later than 2:00 p.m., Central Time, on such Settlement Date. Settlements may occur during the existence of a Default and whether or not the applicable conditions precedent set forth in Section 4.2 have then been satisfied. Such amounts transferred to Agent shall be applied against the amounts of the Swingline Lender's Swingline Loans and, together with such Swingline Lender's Pro Rata Share of such Swingline Loan, shall constitute Revolving Loans of such Lenders, respectively. If any such amount is not transferred to Agent by any applicable Lender on such Settlement Date, the Swingline Lender shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Lender together with interest thereon.

(a)        Revolving Loans. If at any time for any reason whatsoever (including as a result of currency fluctuations) (i) the outstanding balance of all Revolving Loans exceeds the lesser of (x) the Maximum Revolving Facility Amount minus Reserves established against the Maximum Revolving Facility Amount and (y) the Borrowing Base, (ii) any of the Loan Limits for Revolving Loans are exceeded or (iii) Excess Availability is less than the Minimum Excess Availability Amount unless the Loan Parties are in compliance with Section 9.1, then, in each case, Borrowers will immediately pay to Agent an amount equal to such excess or deficiency, as applicable.

(b)        Reserved..

(c)        Maturity Date Payments. All remaining outstanding monetary Obligations (including, all accrued and unpaid fees described in Section 3.2) shall be Payable in Full on the Maturity Date.

From and after such date of termination, neither Agent nor any Lender shall have any obligation whatsoever to extend any additional Loans, and its Revolving Loan Commitment hereunder shall be terminated.

(e)        Reserved.

2.7.    Obligations Unconditional.

(a)        The payment and performance of all Obligations shall constitute the absolute and unconditional obligations of each Loan Party, and shall be independent of any defense or right of set-off, recoupment or counterclaim that any Loan Party or any other Person might otherwise have against Agent, any Lender or any other Person. All payments required by this Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall be made in Dollars (unless payment in a different currency is expressly provided otherwise in the applicable Loan Document) and paid in cash free of any deductions or withholdings for any taxes or other amounts and without abatement, diminution or set-off. If any Loan Party is required by Applicable Law to make such a deduction or withholding from a payment under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document, such Loan Party shall pay to Agent such additional amount as shall be necessary to ensure that, after the making of such deduction or withholding, Agent receives (free from any liability in respect of any such deduction or withholding) a net sum equal to the sum which it would have received and so retained had no such deduction or withholding been made or required to be made. Each Loan Party shall (a) pay when due the full amount of any deduction or withholding that it is required to make by law, to the relevant authority within the payment period set by Applicable Law and (b) promptly after any such payment, deliver to Agent an original (or certified copy) official receipt issued by the relevant authority in respect of the amount withheld or deducted or, if the relevant authority does not issue such official receipts, such other evidence of payment of the amount withheld or deducted as is reasonably acceptable to Agent.

(b)        If, at any time and from time to time after the Closing Date (or at any time before or after the Closing Date with respect to the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, regulations, guidelines or directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith), (a) any change in any existing law, regulation, treaty or directive applicable to the Agent, any Lender or the Loan Parties or in the interpretation or application thereof, (b) any new law, regulation, treaty or directive enacted or application thereof that is applicable to the Agent, any Lender or the Loan Parties or (c) compliance by Agent with any legally enforceable request or directive from any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency (i) subjects Agent or any Lender to any material tax, levy, impost, deduction, assessment, charge or withholding of any kind whatsoever with respect to any Loan Document, or changes the basis of taxation of payments to Agent or any Lender of any amount payable thereunder (except for net income taxes, or franchise taxes imposed in lieu of net income taxes, imposed generally by federal, state, local or other taxing authorities with respect to interest or fees payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document or changes in the rate of tax on the overall net income of Agent, any Lender or their respective members) or (ii) imposes, modifies or deems applicable any reserve (including any reserve imposed by the FRB, but excluding any reserve included in the determination of the Adjusted Term SOFR), special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by Agent or any Lender or imposes on Agent or any Lender any other condition affecting its SOFR Loans or its obligation to make SOFR Loans, the result of which is to materially increase the cost to (or to impose a material cost on) Agent or any Lender of making or maintaining any SOFR Loan or (iii) imposes on Agent or any Lender any other material condition or increased cost in connection with the transactions contemplated thereby or participations therein, and the result of any of the foregoing is to materially increase the cost to Agent or any Lender of making or continuing any Loan, then, in each such case, Borrowers shall promptly pay to Agent or such Lender, when notified in writing to do so by Agent or such Lender, any additional amounts necessary to compensate Agent or such Lender, on an after-tax basis, for such additional cost or reduced amount as determined by Agent or such Lender in Agent’s or such Lender’s Permitted Discretion. Each such notice of additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section 2.7(b) submitted by Agent or any Lender, as applicable, to Borrower Representative shall, absent manifest error, be final, conclusive and binding for all purposes.

(c)        Section 2.7(a) shall remain operative even after the Termination Date and shall survive the Payment in Full of all of the Loans.

2.8.        Reversal of Payments. To the extent that any payment or payments made to or received by Agent or any Lender pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to any trustee, receiver or other Person under any state, federal or other bankruptcy or other such Applicable Law, then, to the extent thereof, such amounts (and all Liens, rights and remedies relating thereto) shall be revived as Obligations (secured by all such Liens) and continue in full force and effect under this Agreement and under the other Loan Documents as if such payment or payments had not been received by Agent or such Lender. This Section 2.8 shall remain operative even after the Termination Date and shall survive the Payment in Full of all of the Loans.

2.9.        Notes. The Loans and Commitments shall, at the request of any Lender, be evidenced by one or more promissory notes in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to such Lender. However, if such Loans are not so evidenced, such Loans may be evidenced solely by entries upon the books and records maintained by Agent.

2.10.       Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender:

(a)        Unused Line Fees pursuant to Section 3.2(c) shall cease to accrue on the unfunded portion of the Revolving Loan Commitment of such Defaulting Lender;

(b)        Any amount payable to a Defaulting Lender hereunder (whether on account of principal, interest, fees or otherwise) shall, in lieu of being distributed to such Defaulting Lender, be retained by Agent in a segregated account and, subject to any applicable requirements of law, be applied at such time or times as may be determined by Agent (i) first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to Agent hereunder, (ii) second, to the funding of any Revolving Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by Agent, (iii) third, if so determined by Agent and Borrowers, held in such account as cash collateral for future funding obligations of the Defaulting Lender under this Agreement, (iv) fourth, pro rata, to the payment of any amounts owing to Borrowers or the Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by Borrowers or any Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender's breach of its obligations under this Agreement, and (v) fifth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided, that if such payment is made at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 4.2 are satisfied, such payment shall be applied solely to prepay the Loans of all Revolving Lenders that are not Defaulting Lenders pro rata prior to being applied to the prepayment of any Loans, or reimbursement obligations owed to, any Defaulting Lender.

(c)        No Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver, consent or any other action the Lenders or the Required Lenders have taken or may take hereunder, provided that any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or each directly affected Lender which affects such Defaulting Lender differently than other affected Lenders shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender.

(a)        Each Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints and constitutes Borrower Representative as its agent and attorney-in-fact to (i) request and receive Loans in the name or on behalf of such Borrower and any other Borrowers, (ii) deliver Notices of Borrowing, and Borrowing Base Calculations, (iii) give instructions with respect to the disbursement of the proceeds of the Loans, (iv) give and receive all other notices and consents hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents and (v) take all other actions (including in respect of compliance with covenants) in the name or on behalf of any Borrower or Borrowers pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Agent may at any time and from time to time require that Loans to or for the account of any Borrower be disbursed directly to an operating account of such Borrower.

(b)        Borrower Representative hereby accepts the appointment by Borrowers to act as the agent and attorney-in-fact of Borrowers pursuant to this Section 2.11.

(c)        Each Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints and constitutes Borrower Representative as its agent to receive statements on account and all other notices from Agent and Lenders with respect to the Obligations or otherwise under or in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

(d)        Any notice, election, representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or undertaking made or delivered by or on behalf of any Borrower by Borrower Representative shall be deemed for all purposes to have been made or delivered by such Borrower, as the case may be, and shall be binding upon and enforceable against such Borrower to the same extent as if made or delivered directly by such Borrower.

(e)        No resignation by or termination of the appointment of Borrower Representative as agent and attorney-in-fact as aforesaid shall be effective, except after ten (10) Business Days’ prior written notice to Agent. If the Borrower Representative resigns under this Agreement, Borrowers shall be entitled to appoint a successor Borrower Representative (which shall be a Borrower and shall be reasonably acceptable to Agent as such successor Borrower Representative). Upon the acceptance of its appointment as successor Borrower Representative hereunder, such successor Borrower Representative shall succeed to all the rights, powers and duties of the resigning Borrower Representative and the term “Borrower Representative” shall mean such successor Borrower Representative for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and the resigning or terminated Borrower Representative’s appointment, powers and duties as Borrower Representative shall be thereupon terminated.

(a)        Joint and Several. Each Borrower hereby agrees that such Borrower is jointly and severally liable for the full and prompt payment in cash (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) and performance of, all Obligations owed or hereafter owing to Agent and Lenders by each other Borrower. Each Borrower agrees that its obligation hereunder shall not be discharged until Payment in Full, of the Obligations has occurred, and that its obligations under this Section 2.12 shall be absolute and unconditional, irrespective of, and unaffected by,

(i)        the genuineness, validity, regularity, enforceability or any future amendment of, or change in, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, document or instrument to which any Loan Party is or may become a party;

(ii)       the absence or delay of any action to enforce this Agreement (including this Section 2.12) or any other Loan Document or the waiver or consent by Agent or any Lender with respect to any of the provisions thereof;

(iii)      the existence, value or condition of, or failure to perfect Agent's Lien against, any security for the Obligations or any action, or the absence of any action, by Agent in respect thereof (including the release of any such security);

(iv)       the insolvency of any Loan Party or Other Obligor; or

(v)        any other action or circumstances that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety or guarantor.

(b)        Waivers by Borrowers. Each Borrower expressly waives all rights it may have now or in the future under any statute, or at common law, or at law or in equity, or otherwise, to compel Agent to marshal assets or to proceed in respect of the Obligations against any other Loan Party or Other Obligor, any other party or against any security for the payment and performance of the Obligations before proceeding against, or as a condition to proceeding against, such Borrower. It is agreed among each Borrower, Agent and Lenders that the foregoing waivers are of the essence of the transaction contemplated by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and that, but for the provisions of this Section 2.12 and such waivers, Agent and Lenders would decline to enter into this Agreement.
