The Borrower Representative may request advances hereunder upon giving oral or written notice to the Bank by 11:00 a.m. (Cleveland, Ohio time) (a) on the day of the proposed advance, in the case of advances to bear interest under the Base Rate Option (as hereinafter defined) and (b) three (3) Business Days prior to the proposed advance, in the case of advances to bear interest under the LIBOR Option (as hereinafter defined), followed promptly thereafter by the Borrower Representative's written confirmation to the Bank of any oral notice.

(b)The Borrower Representative may request that advances under this Note and subject LCs under the Loan Documents be made or issued in an Agreed Foreign Currency. As used herein, the term "Agreed Foreign Currencies" shall mean Australian Dollars, Polish Zloty, Euros, and any other foreign currency requested by the Borrower Representative and approved by the Bank in its sole discretion, and "Agreed Foreign Currency" shall mean any one of such currencies. Other than the Australian Loan and the Polish Loan, each advance under this Note made in an Agreed Foreign Currency shall bear interest at the LIBOR Option in accordance with the terms hereof. The Bank may, with respect to advances made in an Agreed Foreign Currency, engage in reasonable rounding of the Agreed Foreign Currency amounts requested.

(c)All advances under this Note and subject LCs under the Loan Documents made or issued in Agreed Foreign Currencies shall be governed by the Bank's standard fees, charges, agreements, policy guidelines and other terms and provisions relating to such advances and issuances as in effect from time to time (collectively, the "Bank's Standard Foreign Currency Terms"), in addition to the specific provisions set forth herein. In the event of any conflict between the Bank's Standard Foreign Currency Terms and the terms of this Note or any other Loan Document, the Bank's Standard Foreign Currency Terms shall govern.

(d)All payments due hereunder shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future taxes, levies, imports, deductions, charges or withholdings imposed by any jurisdiction or taxing authority, domestic or foreign, and all liabilities with respect thereto, excluding (i) taxes imposed on the Bank's net income and (ii) taxes imposed on the Bank's net income and franchise taxes imposed on the Bank, by the jurisdiction of the Bank's lending office or any political subdivision thereof (all such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges withholdings and liabilities being hereinafter referred to as "Taxes").

The specification herein that payment be made in the relevant Agreed Foreign Currency or Dollars, as the case may be, at 1900 East Ninth Street, Cleveland, Ohio 44114 or such other location as may be designated by the Bank from time to time, is of the essence hereof. If payment is not made in the currency due hereunder or under any other Loan Document (the "Contractual Currency") or if any court or tribunal shall render a judgment or order for the payment of amounts due hereunder or under any other Loan Document and such judgment is expressed in a currency other than the Contractual Currency, each Borrower shall indemnify and hold the Bank harmless against any deficiency in terms of the amount received by the Bank arising or resulting from any variation as between (i) the rate of exchange at which the Contractual Currency is converted into the currency actually received or the currency in which the judgment is expressed (the "Received Currency") and (ii) the rate of exchange at which the Bank would, in accordance with normal banking procedures, be able to purchase the Contractual Currency with the Received Currency by the Bank on the Business Day following receipt of the Received Currency. If the court or tribunal has fixed the date on which the rate of exchange is determined for the conversion of the judgment currency into the Contractual Currency (the "Conversion Date") and if there is a change in the rate of exchange prevailing between the Conversion Date and the date of receipt by the Bank, then the Borrowers will, notwithstanding such judgment or order, pay such additional amount as may be necessary to ensure that the amount paid in the Received Currency when converted at the rate of exchange prevailing on the date of receipt will produce the amount then due to the Bank from the Borrowers hereunder in the Contractual Currency.

If a Borrower shall wind up, liquidate, dissolve or become bankrupt while there remains outstanding (i) any amounts owing to the Bank under this Note or under any other Loan Document, (ii) any damages owing to the Bank in respect of a breach of any of the terms hereof or (iii) any judgment or order rendered in respect of such amounts or damages, each Borrower shall indemnify and hold the Bank harmless against any deficiency in terms of the Contractual Currency in the amounts received by the Bank arising or resulting from any variation as between (a) the rate of exchange at which the Contractual Currency is converted into another currency (the "Liquidation Currency") for purposes of such winding-up, liquidation, dissolution or bankruptcy with regard to the amount in the Contractual Currency due or contingently due hereunder or under any other Loan Document or under any judgment or order into which the relevant obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall have been merged and (b) the rate of exchange at which the Bank could, in accordance with normal banking procedures be able to purchase the Contractual Currency with the Liquidation Currency at the earlier of (1) the date of payment of such amounts or damages and (2) the final date or dates for the filing of proofs of a claim in a winding-up, liquidation, dissolution or bankruptcy. As used in the preceding sentence, the "final date" or "dates for the filing of proofs of a claim in a winding-up, liquidation, dissolution or bankruptcy" shall be the date fixed by the liquidator or other appropriate person or otherwise applicable under the applicable law as being the last practicable date as of which the liabilities of a Borrower may be ascertained for such winding-up, liquidation, dissolution or bankruptcy before payment by the liquidator or other appropriate person in respect thereof.

In no event will the rate of interest hereunder exceed the maximum rate allowed by law.

3.Interest Rate Election. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Note, at the end of each interest period applicable to any advance, the Borrower Representative may renew the Option applicable to such advance or convert such advance to a different Option; provided that, during any period in which any Event of Default (as hereinafter defined) has occurred and is continuing, any advances bearing interest under the LIBOR Option or the Daily LIBOR Option shall, at the Bank's sole discretion, be converted at the end of the applicable LIBOR Interest Period (or immediately in the case of the Daily LIBOR Option) to the Base Rate Option and the LIBOR Option and the Daily LIBOR Option will not be available to the Borrowers with respect to any new advances (or with respect to the conversion or renewal of any existing advances) until such Event of Default has been cured by the Borrowers or waived by the Bank.

In the case of converting to the LIBOR Option or the Daily LIBOR Option, such notice shall be given at least three (3) Business Days prior to the commencement of any LIBOR Interest Period or when the Borrower Representative would like to commence the Daily LIBOR Option, as the case may be. If no interest period is specified in any such notice for which the resulting advance is to bear interest under the LIBOR Option, the Borrower Representative shall be deemed to have selected a LIBOR Interest Period of one month's duration. If no notice of election, conversion or renewal is timely received by the Bank with respect to any advance, the Borrower Representative shall be deemed to have elected the Base Rate Option. Any such election shall be promptly confirmed in writing by such method as the Bank may require.

4.Advance Procedures. A request for advance made by telephone must be promptly confirmed in writing by such method as the Bank may require. Each Borrower authorizes the Bank to accept telephonic requests for advances, and the Bank shall be entitled to rely upon the authority of the CFO, VP - Finance, Controller, General Counsel, or Treasury Manager providing such instructions. Each Borrower hereby indemnifies and holds the Bank harmless from and against any and all damages, losses, liabilities, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses) which may arise or be created by the acceptance of such telephone requests or making such advances. The Bank will enter on its books and records, which entry when made will be presumed correct, the date and amount of each advance, the interest rate and interest period applicable thereto, as well as the date and amount of each payment; provided, however, that failure to make any such entry shall in no way detract from Borrowers' obligations under this Note.

The Borrowers shall pay accrued interest on the unpaid principal balance of this Note in arrears: (a) for the portion of advances bearing interest under the Base Rate Option and the Daily LIBOR Option, on the first day of each month during the term hereof, (b) for the portion of advances bearing interest under the LIBOR Option, on the last day of the respective LIBOR Interest Period for such advance, (c) if any LIBOR Interest Period is longer than three (3) months, then also on the three (3) month anniversary of such interest period and every three (3) months thereafter, and (d) for all advances, at maturity, whether by acceleration of this Note or otherwise, and after maturity, on demand until paid in full. All outstanding principal and accrued interest hereunder shall be due and payable in full on the Expiration Date. All advances under this Note shall be repaid and each payment of interest thereon shall be paid in the currency in which such advance was made. If for any reason any Borrower is prohibited by any law, rule, regulation or any other reason from making any required payment hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents in an Agreed Foreign Currency, such Borrower will make such payment in Dollars in the Dollar Amount of such Agreed Foreign Currency payment amount.

If any payment under this Note shall become due on a Saturday, Sunday or public holiday under the laws of the State where the Bank's office indicated above is located, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and such extension of time shall be included in computing interest in connection with such payment. Each Borrower hereby authorizes the Bank to charge such Borrower's deposit account at the Bank for any payment when due hereunder. Payments received will be applied to charges, fees and expenses (including attorneys' fees), accrued interest and principal in any order the Bank may choose, in its sole discretion.

The Borrowers shall pay to the Bank quarterly in arrears, on the last day of each calendar quarter, a commitment fee in the amount of the product of twenty (20) basis points (0.20%) per annum multiplied by the average daily unused amount of the Facility during the most recently ended quarter.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein or in any of the other Loan Documents, if, after the making of any advance under this Note in any currency other than Dollars, currency control or exchange regulations are imposed in the country which issues such currency with the result that the type of currency in which such advance was made (the "Original Currency") no longer exists or a Borrower is not able to make payment to the Bank in such Original Currency, then all payments to be made by such Borrower hereunder in such currency shall instead be made when due in Dollars in an amount equal to the Dollar Amount (as of the date of repayment) of such payment due, it being the intention of the parties hereto that the Borrowers take all risks of the imposition of any such currency control or exchange regulations.

6.Late Payments; Default Rate. If any Borrower fails to make any payment of principal, interest or other amount coming due pursuant to the provisions of this Note within fifteen (15) calendar days of the date due and payable, such Borrower also shall pay to the Bank a late charge equal to the lesser of five percent (5%) of the amount of such payment or $100.00 (the "Late Charge"). Such fifteen (15) day period shall not be construed in any way to extend the due date of any such payment. Upon maturity, whether by acceleration, demand or otherwise, and at the Bank's option upon the occurrence of any Event of Default (as hereinafter defined) and during the continuance thereof, each advance outstanding under this Note shall bear interest at a rate per annum (based on the actual number of days that principal is outstanding over a year of 360 days) which shall be two percentage points (2%) in excess of the interest rate in effect from time to time under this Note but not more than the maximum rate allowed by law (the "Default Rate"). The Default Rate shall continue to apply whether or not judgment shall be entered on this Note. Both the Late Charge and the Default Rate are imposed as liquidated damages for the purpose of defraying the Bank's expenses incident to the handling of delinquent payments, but are in addition to, and not in lieu of, the Bank's exercise of any rights and remedies hereunder, under the other Loan Documents or under applicable law, and any fees and expenses of any agents or attorneys which the Bank may employ. In addition, the Default Rate reflects the increased credit risk to the Bank of carrying a loan that is in default. Each Borrower agrees that the Late Charge and Default Rate are reasonable forecasts of just compensation for anticipated and actual harm incurred by the Bank, and that the actual harm incurred by the Bank cannot be estimated with certainty and without difficulty.

4842-1709-5855, v.3

7.Prepayment; Reduction of Facility. The Borrowers shall have the right to prepay any advance hereunder at any time and from time to time, in whole or in part; subject, however, to payment of any break funding indemnification amounts owing pursuant to paragraph 8 below. The Borrowers shall have the right to reduce the Facility from time to time in a minimum of $1,000,000 increments.

8.Yield Protection; Break Funding Indemnification. The Borrowers shall pay to the Bank on written demand therefor, together with the written evidence of the justification therefor, all direct costs incurred, losses suffered or payments made by Bank by reason of any change in law or regulation or its interpretation imposing any reserve, deposit, allocation of capital, or similar requirement (including without limitation, Regulation D of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System) on the Bank, its holding company or any of their respective assets. In addition, each Borrower agrees to indemnify the Bank against any liabilities, losses or expenses (including, without limitation, loss of margin, any loss or expense sustained or incurred in liquidating or employing deposits from third parties, and any loss or expense incurred in connection with funds acquired to effect, fund or maintain any advance (or any part thereof) bearing interest under the LIBOR Option) which the Bank sustains or incurs as a consequence of either (i) any Borrower's failure to make a payment on the due date thereof, (ii) any Borrower's revocation (expressly, by later inconsistent notices or otherwise) in whole or in part of any notice given to Bank to request, convert, renew or prepay any advance bearing interest under the LIBOR Option, or (iii) any Borrower's payment or prepayment (whether voluntary, after acceleration of the maturity of this Note or otherwise) or conversion of any advance bearing interest under the LIBOR Option on a day other than the last day of the applicable LIBOR Interest Period. A notice as to any amounts payable pursuant to this paragraph given to any Borrower by the Bank shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and shall be payable upon demand. Each Borrower's indemnification obligations hereunder shall survive the payment in full of the advances and all other amounts payable hereunder.

9.Other Loan Documents. This Note is issued in connection with the Amended and Restated Loan Agreement between the Borrowers and the Bank, dated as of September 24, 2015 (as further amended, modified or renewed from time to time, the "Loan Agreement"), and the other agreements and documents now or hereafter executed and/or delivered in connection herewith or therewith or referred to herein or therein (including, without limitation, the subject LCs), the terms of which are incorporated herein by reference (this Note, the Loan Agreement, and such other agreements and documents, each as amended, modified or renewed from time to time, being collectively referred to as the "Loan Documents"), and is secured by the property (if any) described in the Loan Documents and by such other collateral as previously may have been or may in the future be granted to the Bank to secure this Note. Capitalized and other terms not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the other Loan Documents.

10

4842-1709-5855, v.3

the maturity of any such indebtedness, (B) any such indebtedness (other than any payable on demand) shall not have been paid in full at its stated maturity, or (C) any such indebtedness payable on demand shall not have been paid in full within ten (10) banking days after any actual demand for payment); (vi) if at any time (A) the aggregate of all undischarged final judgments (excluding final judgments the execution of which, on the date of determination, are effectively stayed) against the Obligors or any thereof for the payment of money shall exceed $5,000,000 or (B) the aggregate of all liabilities of the Obligors arising from defaults under ERISA (as defined in the Loan Agreement) shall exceed $5,000,000; (vii) the commencement of any foreclosure or forfeiture proceeding, execution or attachment against any collateral securing the obligations of any Obligor to the Bank; (viii) any material adverse change in any Obligor's business, assets, operations, financial condition or results of operations; (ix) any Obligor ceases doing business as a going concern; (x) any representation or warranty made by any Obligor to the Bank in any Loan Document or any other documents now or in the future evidencing or securing the obligations of any Obligor to the Bank, is false, erroneous or misleading in any material respect; (xi) if this Note or any guarantee executed by any Obligor is secured, the failure of any Obligor to provide the Bank with additional collateral if in the Bank's opinion at any time or times, the market value of any of the collateral securing this Note or any guarantee has depreciated below that required pursuant to the Loan Documents or, if no specific value is so required, then in an amount deemed material by the Bank; (xii) the revocation or attempted revocation, in whole or in part, of any guarantee by any Obligor; or (xiii) the occurrence of a Change of Control. As used herein, the term "Obligor" means any Borrower, and any guarantor of the Borrowers' obligations to the Bank existing on the date of this Note or arising in the future.

Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default: (a) the Bank shall be under no further obligation to make advances hereunder; (b) if an Event of Default specified in clause (iii) or (iv) above shall occur, the outstanding principal balance and accrued interest hereunder together with any additional amounts payable hereunder shall be immediately due and payable without demand or notice of any kind; (c) if any other Event of Default shall occur, the outstanding principal balance and accrued interest hereunder together with any additional amounts payable hereunder, at the Bank's option and without demand or notice of any kind, may be accelerated and become immediately due and payable; (d) at the Bank's option, this Note will bear interest at the Default Rate from the date of the occurrence of the Event of Default; and (e) the Bank may exercise from time to time any of the rights and remedies available under the Loan Documents or under applicable law.

11.Power to Confess Judgment. Each Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes any attorney-at-law, including an attorney employed by or retained and paid by the Bank, to appear in any court of record in or of the State of Ohio, or in any other state or territory of the United States, at any time after the indebtedness evidenced by this Note becomes due, whether by acceleration or otherwise, to waive the issuing and service of process and to confess a judgment against any Borrower in favor of the Bank, and/or any assignee or holder hereof for the amount of principal and interest and expenses then appearing due from the Borrowers under this Note, together with costs of suit and thereupon to release all errors and waive all right of appeal or stays of execution in any court of record. Each Borrower hereby expressly (i) waives any conflict of interest of the attorney(s) retained by the Bank to confess judgment against any Borrower upon this Note, and (ii) consents to the receipt by such attorney(s) of a reasonable legal fee from the Bank for legal services rendered for confessing judgment against any Borrower upon this Note. A copy of this Note, certified by the Bank, may be filed in each such proceeding in place of filing the original as a warrant of attorney.

12.Right of Setoff. In addition to all liens upon and rights of setoff against any Borrower's money, securities or other property given to the Bank by law, the Bank shall have, with respect to the Borrowers' obligations to the Bank under this Note and to the extent permitted by law, a contractual possessory security interest in and a contractual right of setoff against, and each Borrower hereby grants the Bank a security interest in, and hereby assigns, conveys, delivers, pledges and transfers to the Bank, all of such Borrower's right, title and interest in and to, all of such Borrower's deposits, moneys, securities and other property now or hereafter in the possession of or on deposit with, or in transit to, the Bank or any other direct or indirect subsidiary of The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc., whether held in a general or special account or deposit, whether held jointly with someone else, or whether held for safekeeping or otherwise, excluding, however, all IRA, Keogh, and trust accounts. Every such security interest and right of setoff may be exercised without demand upon or notice to the Borrowers. Every such right of setoff shall be deemed to have been exercised immediately upon the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder without any action of the Bank, although the Bank may enter such setoff on its books and records at a later time.

11

4842-1709-5855, v.3

13.Indemnity. Each Borrower agrees to indemnify each of the Bank, each legal entity, if any, who controls, is controlled by or is under common control with the Bank, and each of their respective directors, officers and employees (the "Indemnified Parties"), and to defend and hold each Indemnified Party harmless from and against any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities and expenses (including all fees and charges of internal or external counsel with whom any Indemnified Party may consult and all expenses of litigation and preparation therefor) which any Indemnified Party may incur or which may be asserted against any Indemnified Party by any person, entity or Governmental Authority (including any person or entity claiming derivatively on behalf of any Borrower), in connection with or arising out of or relating to the matters referred to in this Note or in the other Loan Documents or the use of any advance hereunder, whether (a) arising from or incurred in connection with any breach of a representation, warranty or covenant by any Borrower, or (b) arising out of or resulting from any suit, action, claim, proceeding or governmental investigation, pending or threatened, whether based on statute, regulation or order, or tort, or contract or otherwise, before any court or Governmental Authority: provided, however, that the foregoing indemnity agreement shall not apply to any claims, damages, losses, liabilities and expenses solely attributable to an Indemnified Party's gross negligence or willful misconduct. The indemnity agreement contained in this Section shall survive the termination of this Note, payment of any advance hereunder and the assignment of any rights hereunder. Any Borrower may participate at its expense in the defense of any such action or claim.

14.Miscellaneous. All notices, demands, requests, consents, approvals and other communications required or permitted hereunder ("Notices") must be in writing (except as may be agreed otherwise above with respect to borrowing requests) and will be effective upon receipt. Notices may be given in any manner to which the parties may separately agree. Without limiting the foregoing, first-class mail, facsimile transmission, electronic mail and commercial courier service are hereby agreed to as acceptable methods for giving Notices. Regardless of the manner in which provided, Notices may be sent to a party's address as set forth above or to such other address as any party may give to the other for such purpose in accordance with this paragraph. No delay or omission on the Bank's part to exercise any right or power arising hereunder will impair any such right or power or be considered a waiver of any such right or power, nor will the Bank's action or inaction impair any such right or power. The Bank's rights and remedies hereunder are cumulative and not exclusive of any other rights or remedies which the Bank may have under other agreements, at law or in equity. No modification, amendment or waiver of, or consent to any departure by the Borrowers from, any provision of this Note will be effective unless made in a writing signed by the Bank, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. The Borrowers agree to pay on demand, to the extent permitted by law, all costs and expenses incurred by the Bank in the enforcement of its rights in this Note and in any security therefor, including without limitation reasonable fees and expenses of the Bank's counsel. If any provision of this Note is found to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect by a court, all the other provisions of this Note will remain in full force and effect. Each Borrower and all other makers and indorsers of this Note hereby forever waive presentment, protest, notice of dishonor and notice of non-payment. Each Borrower also waives all defenses based on suretyship or impairment of collateral. If this Note is executed by more than one Borrower, the obligations of such persons or entities hereunder will be joint and several. This Note shall bind each Borrower and its heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns, and the benefits hereof shall inure to the benefit of the Bank and its successors and assigns; provided, however, that no Borrower may assign this Note in whole or in part without the Bank's written consent and the Bank at any time may assign this Note in whole or in part.

If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due from any Borrower hereunder in the currency expressed to be payable herein (the "specified currency") into another currency, the parties hereto agree, to the fullest extent that they may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Bank could purchase the specified currency with such other currency at the Bank's main office on the Business Day preceding that on which final, non-appealable judgment is given. The obligations of the Borrowers in respect of any sum due to the Bank hereunder shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency other than the specified currency, be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by Bank of any sum adjudged to be so due in such other currency Bank may in accordance with normal, reasonable banking procedures purchase the specified currency with such other currency. If the amount of the specified currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to Bank in the specified currency, the Borrowers agree, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify Bank against such loss, and if the amount of the specified currency so purchased exceeds the sum originally due to Bank in the specified currency Bank agrees to remit such excess to the Borrowers.

12

4842-1709-5855, v.3

If, as a result of the implementation of the European monetary union, (i) any Agreed Foreign Currency ceases to be lawful currency of the nation issuing the same and is replaced by the Euro, or (ii) any Agreed Foreign Currency and the Euro are at the same time recognized by any Governmental Authority of the nation issuing such currency as lawful currency of such nation and the Bank shall so request in a notice delivered to the Borrower Representative, then any amount payable hereunder by any party hereto in such Agreed Foreign Currency shall instead be payable in the Euro and the amount so payable shall be determined by translating the amount payable in such Agreed Foreign Currency to the Euro at the exchange rate recognized by the European Central Bank for the purpose of implementing European monetary union. Prior to the occurrence of the event or events described in clauses (i) and (ii) of the preceding sentence, each amount payable hereunder in any Agreed Foreign Currency will, except as otherwise provided herein, continue to be payable only in that Agreed Foreign Currency.

Each Borrower agrees, at the request of the Bank to compensate the Bank for any loss, cost, expense or reduction in return that the Bank shall reasonably determine shall be incurred or sustained by Bank as a result of the implementation of European monetary union and that would not have been incurred or sustained but for the transactions provided for herein. A certificate of the Bank setting forth the Bank's determination of the amount or amounts necessary to compensate the Bank shall be delivered to the Borrower Representative and shall be conclusive absent manifest error so long as such determination is made on a reasonable basis. The Borrowers shall pay the Bank the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after receipt thereof.

Each Borrower agrees, at the time of or at any time following the implementation of any changes to the European monetary union, to use reasonable efforts to enter into an agreement amending this Note in order to reflect the implementation of such changes, and to place the Bank and the Borrowers in the position with respect to the settlement of payments of the Euro as they would have been with respect to the settlement of the Agreed Foreign Currency it replaced.

This Note has been delivered to and accepted by the Bank and will be deemed to be made in the State where the Bank's office indicated above is located. THIS NOTE WILL BE INTERPRETED AND THE RIGHTS AND LIABILITIES OF THE BANK AND THE BORROWERS DETERMINED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE WHERE THE BANK'S OFFICE INDICATED ABOVE IS LOCATED, EXCLUDING ITS CONFLICT OF LAws RULES. Each Borrower hereby irrevocably consents to the exclusive jurisdiction of any state or federal court in the county or judicial district where the Bank's office indicated above is located; provided that nothing contained in this Note will prevent the Bank from bringing any action, enforcing any award or judgment or exercising any rights against any Borrower individually, against any security or against any property of any Borrower within any other county, state or other foreign or domestic jurisdiction. Each Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the venue provided above is the most convenient forum for both the Bank and the Borrowers. Each Borrower waives any objection to venue and any objection based on a more convenient forum in any action instituted under this Note.

15.Anti-Money Laundering/International Trade Law Compliance. Each Borrower represents and warrants to the Bank, as of the date of this Note, the date of each advance of proceeds under the Facility, the date of any renewal, extension or modification of the Facility, and at all times until the Facility has been terminated and all amounts thereunder have been indefeasibly paid in full, that: (a) no Covered Entity (i) is a Sanctioned Person; (ii) has any of its assets in a Sanctioned Country or in the possession, custody or control of a Sanctioned Person; or (iii) does business in or with, or derives any of its operating income from investments in or transactions with, any Sanctioned Country or Sanctioned Person in violation of any law, regulation, order or directive enforced by any Compliance Authority; (b) the proceeds of the Facility will not be used to fund any operations in, finance any investments or activities in, or, make any payments to, a Sanctioned Country or Sanctioned Person in violation of any law, regulation, order or directive enforced by any Compliance Authority; (c) the funds used to repay the Facility are not derived from any unlawful activity; and (d) each Covered Entity is in compliance with, and no Covered Entity engages in any dealings or transactions prohibited by, any laws of the United States, including but not limited to any Anti-Terrorism Laws.
