Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On May 24, 2016, Franklin Covey Co. (the Company) entered into the Fifth Modification Agreement to its existing amended and restated secured credit agreement (the Restated Credit Agreement) with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (the Lender). The Lender also provides the majority of the Company’s day-to-day banking services.

The primary purposes of the Fifth Modification Agreement are to (i) provide a term loan from the Lender for $15.0 million (the Term Loan); (ii) increase the maximum principal amount of the revolving line of credit from $30.0 million to $40.0 million; (iii) extend the maturity date of the Restated Credit Agreement from March 31, 2018 to March 31, 2019; (iv) permit the Company to convert balances outstanding from time to time under the revolving line of credit to term loans; and (v) adjust the fixed charge coverage ratio from 1.40 to 1.15. The proceeds from the Term Loan may be used for general corporate purposes.

The Term Loan allows the Company to borrow $15.0 million at an interest rate of LIBOR plus 1.85% per annum. Interest is payable monthly and principal payments of $937,500 are due and payable on the first day of each January, April, July, and October until May 2019. The remaining $3.75 million of principal at the Term Loan maturity date may be repaid by the Company or converted into another Term Loan. The Term Loan may also be repaid sooner than May 2019 at the Company’s discretion.

The Fifth Modification Agreement preserves existing debt covenants that include (i) a Funded Debt to EBITDAR ratio of less than 3.0 to 1.0; (ii) a Fixed Charge Coverage ratio greater than 1.15 to 1.0 as discussed above; (iii) an annual limit on capital expenditures (excluding capitalized curriculum development) of $8.0 million; and (iv) outstanding borrowings on the revolving line of credit may not exceed 150 percent of consolidated accounts receivable. The other key terms and conditions of the Fifth Modification Agreement are substantially the same as those defined in the Restated Credit Agreement. The Restated Credit Agreement was described in the Company’s Form 8-K filed on March 17, 2011, which information is incorporated by reference herein.

In connection with the Fifth Modification Agreement, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries entered into a new Consent and Agreement of Guarantor and a promissory note for the Term Loan.

The foregoing description of the Fifth Modification to the Restated Credit Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the text of the Fifth Modification Agreement to the Restated Credit Agreement, the Consent and Agreement of Guarantor, and the new Term Loan, which are filed as Exhibits 10.1 through 10.3 attached hereto.

This FIFTH MODIFICATION AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) is made effective as of May 24, 2016, by and among FRANKLIN COVEY CO., a Utah corporation (“Borrower”), each undersigned Guarantor (together with Borrower, each a “Loan Party” and collectively, the “Loan Parties”), and JPMORGAN CHASE BANK, N.A., a national banking association (“Lender”).

RECITALS:

A. Lender has previously extended to Borrower a revolving line of credit loan (the “Revolving Loan”) in the maximum principal amount of, immediately prior to the effectiveness of this Agreement, THIRTY MILLION AND NO/100 DOLLARS ($30,000,000.00) pursuant to an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of March 14, 2011 between Borrower and Lender (as amended and modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”). The Revolving Loan is evidenced by an Amended and Restated Secured Promissory Note (Revolving Loan) dated March 14, 2011 (as amended and modified from time to time, the “Revolving Loan Note”), executed by Borrower in favor of Lender. Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the meanings given to such terms in the Credit Agreement.

B. Repayment of the Loan is guaranteed pursuant to the terms of an Amended and Restated Repayment Guaranty dated as of March 14, 2011 (as amended and modified from time to time, the “Guaranty”), executed by FRANKLIN DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION, a Utah corporation, FRANKLIN COVEY TRAVEL, INC., a Utah corporation, and FRANKLIN COVEY CLIENT SALES, INC., a Utah corporation (individually and collectively, as the context requires, and jointly and severally, “Guarantor”), in favor of Lender.

C. The Loan is secured by, among other things, the Security Documents identified in the Credit Agreement.

D. The Credit Agreement, Note, Guaranty, Security Documents and all other agreements, documents, and instruments governing, evidencing, securing, guaranteeing or otherwise relating to the Loan, as modified from time to time, including, without limitation, in this Agreement, are sometimes referred to individually and collectively as the “Loan Documents.”

E. Borrower desires to obtain a term loan from Lender in the original principal amount of FIFTEEN MILLION AND NO/100 DOLLARS ($15,000,000.00) (the “Term Loan”), which shall be evidenced by a Secured Promissory Note (Term Loan) of even date herewith (as amended and modified from time to time, the “Term Loan Note”).

F. Borrower also desires to increase the maximum principal amount of the Revolving Loan to FORTY MILLION AND NO/100 DOLLARS ($40,000,000.00) pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

G. In addition, Borrower desires to have the ability to convert balances outstanding from time to time under the Revolving Loan to one or more term loans (each, a “Term Out Loan”) in the aggregate original principal amount not to exceed FORTY MILLION AND NO/100 DOLLARS ($40,000,000.00) (collectively, the “Term Out Loans” and, together with the Revolving Loan and the Term Loan, individually and collectively, as the context requires, the “Loan”), which shall be evidenced by one or more Secured Promissory Notes (Term Out Loan) dated as of the date of any such conversion (as amended and modified from time to time, individually and collectively, as the context requires, the “Term Out Loan Note” and, together with the Revolving Loan Note and the Term Loan Note, individually and collectively, as the context requires, the “Note”), each of such Term Out Loans reducing the amount of the Revolving Loan on a dollar-for-dollar basis.

H. The Loan and the Note shall be guaranteed by the Guaranty and secured by, among other things, the Security Documents.

I. Subject to the terms and conditions contained herein, Borrower and Lender now desire to modify the Loan Documents to: (i) provide for the Term Loan on the terms set forth in the Loan Documents, including, without limitation, the Credit Agreement and the Term Loan Note; (ii) increase the maximum principal amount of the Revolving Loan from $30,000,000.00 to $40,000,000.00; (iii) extend the maturity date of the Revolving Loan from March 31, 2018 to March 31, 2019 by amending and restating the term “Revolving Loan Maturity Date” set forth in the Credit Agreement; (iv) permit Borrower to convert balances outstanding from time to time under the Revolving Loan to the Term Out Loan on the terms set forth in the Loan Documents, including, without limitation, the Credit Agreement and the Term Out Loan Note; (v) modify the fixed charge coverage ratio covenant as set forth herein; (vi) make certain modifications to the Guaranty as set forth herein; and (vii) make such other modifications as are set forth herein.

2.1 Agreement to Lend and Borrow

(a)

Revolving Loan.

(i) Agreement to Lend and Borrow. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, Lender agrees to lend to Borrower, and Borrower agrees to borrow from Lender from time to time prior to the Revolving Loan Maturity Date, Revolving Loan Advances of the proceeds of the Revolving Loan up to the Revolving Loan Amount, as the same may be permanently and automatically reduced from time to time in connection with the making of Term Out Loan Advances. Lender’s commitment to make Revolving Loan Advances shall be decreased at the same time and in the same amount as the aggregate stated amount of any outstanding Letters of Credit.

(ii) Revolving Nature of Loan. Prior to the Revolving Loan Maturity Date, the Revolving Loan Amount may be drawn, repaid, and drawn again, on a revolving basis, in unlimited repetition so long as (A) the aggregate of all outstanding Revolving Loan Advances does not exceed, at any time, the Revolving Loan Amount, and (B) no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. Although the outstanding principal balance of the Revolving Loan Note may be zero from time to time, the Loan Documents will remain in full force and effect until the Revolving Loan Maturity Date or all obligations of Borrower or Guarantor relating

to the Revolving Loan are indefeasibly paid and performed in full, whichever is later. Borrower shall have the right to terminate the Revolving Loan upon Borrower’s specific written direction and attendant payment in full to Lender of all Obligations with respect to the Revolving Loan, including, without limitation, the Early Termination Fee; provided, however, that no such Early Termination Fee shall be payable if the Revolving Loan is terminated in connection with one or more Term Out Loan Advances. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, Lender may suspend or terminate its commitment to make Revolving Loan Advances of the proceeds of the Revolving Loan without notice to Borrower or further act on the part of Lender.

(b)

Term Loan.

(i) Agreement to Lend and Borrow. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, Lender agrees to make the Term Loan to Borrower on the Fifth Modification Effective Date in a principal amount equal to the Term Loan Amount. Lender will make the amount of the Term Loan Advance available to Borrower in immediately available funds by initiating a wire or other transfer to the deposit account designated by Borrower in writing to Lender.

(ii) Nature of Term Loan. Borrower shall have the right to prepay the Term Loan, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty; provided, however, that if Borrower pays all or a portion of the principal balance of the Term Loan on a date other than the last day of an Interest Period or the Term Loan Maturity Date (whether by acceleration, prepayment or otherwise), Borrower shall pay Lender amounts sufficient (in Lender’s reasonable opinion) to compensate Lender for any loss, cost, or expense incurred as a result thereof. A certificate of Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section shall be delivered to Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Borrower shall pay Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after receipt thereof. Proceeds of the Term Loan prepaid or repaid by Borrower may not be reborrowed.

(c)

Term Out Loan.

(i) Agreement to Lend and Borrow. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, Lender agrees to lend to Borrower, and Borrower agrees to borrow from Lender from time to time prior to the end of the Term Out Loan Draw Period, Term Out Loan Advances representing conversions of the outstanding proceeds of the Revolving Loan up to the Term Out Loan Amount. Borrower acknowledges and agrees that no new money shall be advanced to Borrower in connection with a Term Out Loan Advance.

(ii) Nature of Term Out Loan. Prior to the end of the Term Out Loan Draw Period, the Term Out Loan Amount may be drawn so long as (A) the aggregate amount of all previous Term Out Loan Advances does not exceed the Term Out Loan Amount, (B) the sum of the Revolving Loan Amount, as in effect from time to time, and the original aggregate principal amount of all Term Out Loan Advances made from time to time does not exceed $40,000,000.00, and (C) no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would result from the making of the relevant Term Out Loan Advance. Borrower shall have the right to prepay any Term Out Loan Advance, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty; provided, however, that if Borrower pays all or a portion of the principal balance of any Term Out Loan on a date other than the last day of an Interest Period or the applicable Term Out Loan Maturity Date (whether by acceleration, prepayment or

otherwise), Borrower shall pay Lender amounts sufficient (in Lender’s reasonable opinion) to compensate Lender for any loss, cost, or expense incurred as a result thereof. A certificate of Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section shall be delivered to Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Borrower shall pay Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after receipt thereof. Proceeds of the Term Out Loan prepaid or repaid by Borrower may not be reborrowed. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, Lender may suspend or terminate its commitment to make Term Out Loan Advances without notice to Borrower or further act on the part of Lender.

(d) Use of Proceeds. The proceeds of the Loan may be used by Borrower for its general working capital purposes or other Borrower purposes (including, for the avoidance of doubt, to convert all or a portion of amounts outstanding under the Revolving Loan into one or more Term Out Loans).

(e) Procedures for Advances. Sections 2.2(b) and (c) of the Credit Agreement are hereby amended and restated in their entirety to read as follows:

(b) Term Out Loan Advances.

In addition to complying with the other requirements of this Agreement, each Request for Term Out Loan Advance shall specify the date (which shall be a Business Day) and the amount of the requested Term Out Loan Advance.

(ii) Term Out Loan Advances and Draw Period. Term Out Loan Advances may be made only during the Term Out Loan Draw Period. The right of Borrower to convert outstanding Revolving Loan Advances into Term Out Loan Advances shall expire at the conclusion of the Term Out Loan Draw Period, and no new Term Out Loan Advances shall be made thereafter. Any outstanding principal amounts of the Revolving Loan for which conversion has not been requested during the Term Out Loan Draw Period shall not be eligible as a Term Out Loan Advance hereunder and Borrower shall not be liable to repay such non-converted amounts as Term Out Loan Advances.

(iii) Timing of Term Out Loan Advances. Provided the conditions for the making of Term Out Loan Advances contained herein are satisfied, Lender shall make each Term Out Loan Advance on the date requested by Borrower in the applicable Request for Term Out Loan Advance. Thereupon, Lender will convert the amount of each Term Out Loan Advance from the Revolving Loan and the Revolving Loan Amount will be automatically and permanently reduced by the amount of such Term Out Loan Advance, in each case, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, without any liability to pay an Early Termination Fee with respect to such reduction.

(c) Authorized Persons. The persons initially authorized to request Advances are all Authorized Representatives of Borrower. At Lender’s request, Borrower shall provide Lender with documentation satisfactory to Lender indicating the names of those employees of Borrower authorized by Borrower to request Advances or to otherwise sign a

(b) If Lender determines that any Change in Law regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on Lender’s capital or on the capital of Lender’s holding company as a consequence of this Agreement, the commitment to make any Loans, the Loans, or any Letters of Credit issued by Lender, to a level below that which Lender or Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration Lender’s policies and the policies of Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity), then from time to time Borrower will pay to Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate Lender or Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.

Borrower shall pay Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after receipt thereof.

(d) Failure or delay on the part of Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 2.9 shall not constitute a waiver of Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided, however, that Borrower shall not be required to compensate Lender pursuant to this Section 2.9 for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that Lender notifies Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

(e) If Lender requests any compensation from Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.9, Borrower shall have the right immediately to terminate this Agreement, without any Early Termination Fee, upon the indefeasible payment in full of all Loans then outstanding together with all unpaid accrued interest thereon at the rate applicable prior to Lender’s request, and all other amounts payable by Borrower with respect to the Obligations or pursuant to the terms of any other Loan Documents, including, without limitation, the amount of any compensation due pursuant to this Section 2.9 and accrued prior to the date of Borrower’s termination of this Agreement.

(j) Taxes. Section 2 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by adding the following as a new Section 2.14:

(a) Withholding Taxes; Gross-Up; Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law. If any applicable law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable withholding agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a withholding agent, then the applicable withholding agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the applicable Loan Party shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.14), Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

(b) Payment of Other Taxes by Loan Parties. The Loan Parties shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law, or at the option of Lender, timely reimburse it for, Other Taxes.

(c) Evidence of Payment. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by any Loan Party to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 2.14, such Loan Party shall deliver to Lender the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment, or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to Lender.

(d) Indemnification. Borrower shall indemnify Lender, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by Lender or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to Lender and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to Borrower by Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(e) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If Lender determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.14 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.14), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section 2.14 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of Lender and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of Lender, shall repay to Lender the amount paid to Lender (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (e), in no event will Lender be required to pay any amount to any indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (e), the payment of which would place Lender in a less favorable net after-Tax position than Lender would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to such refund had never been paid. This paragraph (e) shall not be construed to require Lender to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.

(f) Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section 2.14 shall survive the resignation or replacement of Lender or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, Lender, the termination of the Loan or any commitment therefor and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document.

(g) Defined Terms. For purposes of this Section 2.14, the term “applicable law” includes FATCA.

(h) Exemption Certificates. Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to Borrower or its agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by Borrower, such properly completed and executed documentation as may be reasonably necessary to permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by Borrower or its agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by Borrower or its agent as will enable Borrower or its agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to withholding or information reporting requirements.

(k) Anti-Corruption Laws and Sanctions. Section 5 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by adding the following as a new Section 5.20:

(1) Definitions. The definition of “Change of Control” set forth in Section 1 of the Guaranty is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:

“Change of Control” means (a) the acquisition of ownership, directly or indirectly, beneficially or of record, by any Person or group (within the meaning of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the rules of the SEC thereunder as in effect on

the date hereof), of Equity Interests representing more than fifty percent (50%) of the aggregate ordinary voting power represented by the issued and outstanding Equity Interests of Guarantor; (b) occupation at any time of a majority of the seats (other than vacant seats and other than due to death or disability) on the board of directors of Guarantor by Persons who were not (i) directors of Guarantor on the date of this Agreement or (ii) nominated or appointed by the board of directors of Guarantor; (c) [Reserved]; (d) the closing of a sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of Guarantor’s assets; or (e) Guarantor’s merger into or consolidation with any other entity, or any other reorganization or transfer, directly or indirectly, of the ownership interests in Guarantor, in which the holders of the outstanding ownership interests in Guarantor immediately prior to such transaction receive or retain, in connection with such transaction on account of their Equity Interests, Equity Interests representing less than fifty percent (50%) of the voting power of the entity surviving such transaction; provided, however, that a Change of Control shall not include a merger effected exclusively for the purpose of changing the domicile of Guarantor or a merger of a Guarantor into Borrower or another Guarantor.

(2) Keepwell. The Guaranty is hereby amended by adding the following as a new Section 23:

23. Keepwell. Each Qualified ECP Guarantor hereby jointly and severally, absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to provide such funds or other support as may be needed from time to time by each other Guarantor to honor all of its obligations under this Guaranty in respect of a Swap Obligation (provided, however, that each Qualified ECP Guarantor shall only be liable under this Section 23 for the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering its obligations under this Section 23 or otherwise under this Guaranty voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, and not for any greater amount). Except as otherwise provided herein, the obligations of each Qualified ECP Guarantor under this Section 23 shall remain in full force and effect until the termination of all Swap Obligations. Each Qualified ECP Guarantor intends that this Section 23 constitute, and this Section 23 shall be deemed to constitute, a “keepwell, support, or other agreement” for the benefit of Borrower and each other Guarantor for all purposes of Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity Exchange Act. As used in this Section 23, the term “Qualified ECP Guarantor” means, in respect of any Swap Obligation, each Guarantor that has total assets exceeding $10,000,000 at the time the Guaranty or grant of the relevant security interest becomes or would become effective with respect to such Swap Obligation or such other person as constitutes an “eligible contract participant” under the Commodity Exchange Act or any regulations promulgated thereunder and can cause another person to qualify as an “eligible contract participant” at such time by entering into a keepwell under Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity Exchange Act.

(s) Conforming Modifications. Each of the Loan Documents is modified to be consistent herewith, including, without limitation, pursuant to the Section 2(a) hereof, and to provide that it shall be a default or an event of default thereunder if any Loan Party shall fail to comply with any of the covenants of any Loan Party contained herein or if any representation or warranty by any Loan Party contained herein or in the documents delivered in connection herewith by any Loan Party is materially incomplete, incorrect, or misleading as of the date hereof. In order to further effect certain of the foregoing modifications, Borrower and Guarantor agree to execute and deliver such other documents or instruments as Lender reasonably determines are necessary or desirable.

(t) References. Each reference in the Loan Documents to any of the Loan Documents shall be a reference to such document as modified herein or as modified on or about the date hereof.

3. RATIFICATION OF LOAN DOCUMENTS AND COLLATERAL. The Loan Documents are ratified and affirmed by Borrower and shall remain in full force and effect as modified herein. Any property or rights to or interests in property granted as security in the Loan Documents shall remain as security for the Loan and the obligations of Borrower in the Loan Documents.

4. FEES AND EXPENSES.

(a) Fees and Expenses. In consideration of Lender’s agreement to amend the Loan Documents as set forth herein, and in addition to any other fees or amounts payable by Borrower hereunder, Borrower has agreed to pay to Lender (i) all legal fees and expenses incurred by Lender in connection herewith; and (ii) all other costs and expenses incurred by Lender in connection with executing this Agreement and otherwise modifying the Loan Documents.

(b) Method of Payment. Such fees shall be paid by Borrower to Lender on the date hereof or at such later date as such fees, costs and expenses are incurred by Lender. Borrower and Lender agree and acknowledge that the foregoing shall not relieve Borrower of its obligation to make future monthly payments of interest and other amounts as required under the terms of the Loan.

5. BORROWER AND GUARANTOR REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. Each of Borrower and Guarantor represents and warrants to Lender: (a) No default or event of default under any of the Loan Documents as modified herein, nor any event, that, with the giving of notice or the passage of time or both, would be a default or an event of default under the Loan Documents as modified herein has occurred and is continuing; (b) There has been no material adverse change in the financial condition of Borrower or Guarantor or any other person whose financial statement has been delivered to Lender in connection with the Loan from the most recent financial statement received by Lender; (c) Each and all representations and warranties of Borrower and Guarantor in the Loan Documents are accurate on the date hereof (except to the extent such representations and warranties expressly relate to a particular date, in which case such representations and warranties are true and correct as of such date); (d) Neither Borrower nor Guarantor has any claims, counterclaims, defenses, or set-offs with respect to the Loan or the Loan Documents as modified herein; (e) The Loan Documents as modified herein are the legal, valid, and binding obligation of Borrower and Guarantor, enforceable against Borrower and Guarantor in accordance with their terms; (f) Each of Borrower and each Guarantor is validly existing under the laws of the State of its formation or organization, has not changed its legal name as set forth above, and has the requisite power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and to perform the Loan Documents as modified herein; (g) The execution and delivery of this Agreement and the performance of the Loan Documents as modified herein have been duly authorized by all requisite action by or on behalf of Borrower and Guarantor; and (h) This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered on behalf of Borrower and Guarantor.
