dated December 31, 2020, with Goldman Sachs Specialty Lending Group, L.P.
("Goldman Sachs"), as lender, administrative agent and collateral agent, and
certain affiliates of Guggenheim Credit Services, LLC, as lenders, and (ii) that
certain credit agreement (the "Revolver Credit Agreement" and, together with the

New Credit Agreements refinanced in full all obligations of the Company and its
subsidiaries under the Company's existing credit agreement, dated September 23,
2016, as amended, with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., BMO and City National Bank, as
lenders.

General Terms

The Term Loan Credit Agreement provides for up to $170.0 million in total term
loan borrowings, consisting of an initial $150.0 million tranche funded in full
at closing and a $20.0 million multi-draw delayed term loan tranche available
for borrowing until December 31, 2022, subject to, among other conditions,
satisfaction of certain pro forma leverage ratios that are further described in
the Term Loan Credit Agreement. The obligations under the Term Loan Credit
Agreement mature on December 31, 2025.

The Revolver Credit Agreement provides for up to the lesser of (i) $75.0 million
less a reserve for certain secured credit products, if any, and (ii) a borrowing
base as calculated under the Revolver Credit Agreement (such lesser amount, the
"Maximum Borrowing Amount"). The borrowing base is calculated as the sum of (i)
85% of the value of certain eligible accounts of the Company and Lifecore, plus
(ii) 85% of the value of eligible developmental service accounts of Lifecore
(capped at $3.0 million), plus (iii) 85% of the value of eligible specified
foreign account debtor accounts of Lifecore (capped at $3.5 million), plus (iv)
90% of eligible credit insured foreign accounts of the Company and Lifecore,
plus (v) 80% of the value of certain eligible accounts of Curation, plus (vi)
the lesser of (x) 85% of the net orderly liquidation value of certain eligible
inventory and (y) 75% of the cost of certain eligible inventory, plus (vii) the
lesser of 85% of the net orderly liquidation value of eligible in-transit
inventory and 70% of the cost of eligible in-transit inventory, minus (viii)
certain customary reserves. The obligations under the Revolver Credit Agreement
mature on December 31, 2025 or, if any obligations under the Term Loan Credit
Agreement remain outstanding as of such date, October 2, 2025.

Interest Rates and Fees



Borrowings under the Term Loan Credit Agreement have an interest rate of, at the
option of the Company, (x) LIBOR (subject to a floor of 100 basis points) plus
850 basis points or (y) base rate (subject to a floor of 300 basis points) plus
750 basis points. Unused multi-draw delayed draw term loan commitments are
subject to an undrawn commitment fee equal to 50 basis points per annum.

Borrowings under the Revolver Credit Agreement have an interest rate of, at the
option of the Company, (x) LIBOR (subject to a floor of 50 basis points) plus
between 200 and 250 basis points or (y) base rate (subject to a floor of 150
basis points) plus between 100 and 150 basis points, in each case, based upon
average availability under the Revolver Credit Agreement. Unused revolver
commitments are subject to an undrawn commitment fee equal to 37.5 basis points
per annum.

covenants, including, among other things, limitations on incurrence of debt,

The Term Loan Credit Agreement also includes the following financial covenants:

expenditures) is greater than or equal to 1.0 to 1.0 and (v) a minimum liquidity
covenant (defined as borrowing availability under the Revolver Credit Agreement
plus certain qualified cash) of $7.5 million.

The Revolver Credit Agreement also includes a springing fixed-charge coverage
ratio financial covenant of 1.0 to 1.0, which applies if either (x) an event of
default has occurred or (y) borrowing availability under the Revolver Credit
Agreement is less than the greater of $7.5 million and 10% of the Maximum
