Upon the record made by the Debtors at the Interim Hearing, including the

therefore;
THE COURT HEREBY MAKES THE FOLLOWING FINDINGS OF FACTS
AND CONCLUSIONS OF LAW:
A Petition. On March 17, 2010 (the "Petition Date"), each of the Debtors
filed voluntary petitions (the "Petitions") under chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code. A motion
for joint administration of the Debtors' estates is pending. The Debtors continue to operate their
businesses and manage their properties as debtors-in-possession pursuant to sections 1107(a) and
1108 of the Bankruptcy Code.
B. Jurisdiction and Venue. The Court has jurisdiction of this proceeding and
the parties and property affected hereby pursuant to 28 U.S. C. 157(b) and 1334. The Motion
is a "core" proceeding as defined in 28 U.S. C. 157(b)(2)(A), (D), and (M). Venue of the Cases
and the Motion in this Court is proper pursuant to 28 U.S. C. 1408 and 1409.
C. Notice. Under the circumstances, the Notice given by the Debtors of the
Motion, the Interim Hearing and the relief granted under this Order constitutes due and sufficient
notice thereof and complies with Bankruptcy Rule 4001 (c).
3
D. Debtors' Acknowledgments and Agreements. Subject to the provisions of
this Interim Order, including paragraph 4.1, the Debtors admit, stipulate, acknowledge and agree
that:
(i) Pre-Petition Financing Agreements. Prior to the commencement
of the Cases, Lender made loans and advances and provided credit accommodations to Borrower
pursuant to (1) Loan and Security Agreement, dated July 3, 2008, by and between Borrower and
Lender, as successor to Capital Tempfunds, a division of Capital Business Credit LLC
("Tempfunds"), the First Amendment dated as of June 22, 2009, between Wells Fargo Bank,
N.A., acting through its Wells Fargo Business Credit and Operating Division ("WFBC"),
successor in interest to Tempfunds, and the Second Amendment to Loan and Security
Agreement, dated July 7, 2009 (as the same has heretofore been amended, supplemented,
modified, extended, renewed, restated and/or replaced at any time prior to the Petition Date, the
"Existing Loan Agreement"), and (2) all other agreements, documents, and instruments executed
and/or delivered with, to, or in favor of Lender, including, without limitation, the security
agreements, notes, guarantees, mortgages, and Uniform Commercial Code ("UCC") financing
statements and all other related agreements, documents, and instruments executed and/or
delivered in connection therewith or related thereto, (collectively, the "Pre-Petition Financing
Agreements"). Copies of the operative Pre-Petition Financing Agreements are annexed to the
Exhibit Supplement as Exhibit "B".
(ii) Term Loan Debt. Prior to the commencement of the Cases,
Borrower obtained term loans from Lender or otherwise incurred obligations pursuant to the
Revolving Credit and Term Loan Agreement dated February 22, 2008, executed by Crdentia in
favor of Lender, in the aggregate principal amount of $16,700,000 (the "Term Loan Agreement"
and together with all other agreements, documents and instruments executed and/or delivered in
connection therewith, or incident to same, the "Term Loan Documents"). Pursuant to the Term
Loan Documents, borrowings are secured by the Pre-Petition Collateral (as hereinafter defined).
4
(iii) Pre-Petition Obligations Amount. As of the Petition Date, the
aggregate amount of all Loans and other Pre-Petition Obligations (as defined in the Ratification
Agreement) owed by the Debtors to Secured Lender under and in connection with the Pre-
Petition Financing Agreements, consisting of Revolving Loans with a principal due in an amount
not less than $5,736,551.72 and the Term Loans with principal due in an amount not less than
$10,693,240.81 plus all interest accruing thereon, and all fees, costs, expenses, and other charges
accrued, accruing, or chargeable with respect thereto totaling $18,995,353.01 (the "Pre-Petition
Obligations", as such term is more fully defined in the Ratification Agreement'), and that the
Pre-Petition Obligations constitute allowed, legal, valid, binding, enforceable and non-avoidable
obligations of the Debtors, and are not subject to any offset, defense, counterclaim, avoidance,
recharacterization or subordination pursuant to the Bankruptcy Code or any other applicable law,
and Debtors do not possess and shall not assert any claim, counterclaim, setoff or defense of any
kind, nature or description which would in any way affect the validity, enforceability and non-
avoidability of any of the Pre-Petition Obligations.
(iv) Pre-Petition Collateral. As of the Petition Date, the Pre-Petition
Obligations were fully secured pursuant to the Pre-Petition Financing Agreements by valid,
perfected, enforceable and non-avoidable first priority security interests and liens granted by the
Debtors to Lender upon all of the Collateral (as defined in the Existing Loan Agreement)
existing as of the Petition Date and all rents, issues, profits, proceeds, and products thereof (the
"Prepetition Collatenil", and collectively, together with any other property of the Debtors'
bankruptcy estates (as defined under section 541 of the Bankruptcy Code, the "Estates") .
Debtors do not possess and will not assert any claim, counterclaim, setoff or defense of any kind,
nature or description, which would in any way affect the validity, enforceability and non-
To the extent that the term "Pre-Petition Obligations" as defined and used in this Interim
Order is in any way inconsistent or conflicts with the way in which such term is defined in the
Ratification Agreement, the definition of such term contained in the Ratification Agreement shall
control and shall be incorporated into this Interim Order.

avoidability of any of Lender's liens, claims and/or security interest m the Pre-Petition
Collateral.

E. Findings Regarding the Postpetition Financing.
(i) Postpetition Financing. The Debtors have requested from Lender,
and Lender is willing to extend, certain loans, advances and other financial accommodations, as
more particularly described and on the terms and conditions set forth in this Order and the
Financing Agreements (as hereinafter defined);
(ii) Need for Post-Petition Financing. The Debtors do not have
sufficient available sources of working capital to operate their businesses in the ordinary course
of their businesses without the financing requested under the Motion. The Debtors' ability to
maintain business relationships with their vendors, suppliers, and customers, to pay their
employees, and to otherwise fund their operations, is essential to Debtors' continued viability.
The ability of the Debtors to obtain sufficient working capital and liquidity through the proposed
post-petition financing arrangements with Lender as set forth in this Order and the Financing
Agreements is vital to the preservation and maintenance of the going concern values of the
Debtors. Accordingly, the Debtors have an immediate need to obtain the post-petition financing
in order to permit, among other things, the orderly continuation of the operation of their
businesses, to minimize the disruption of their business operations, and to manage and preserve
the assets of their estates in order to maximize the recovery to all estate creditors;
(iii) No Credit Available on More Favorable Terms. The Debtors
believe that it would be futile, under the circumstances, to pursue alternative post-petition
financing in the form of: ( 1) unsecured credit allowable as an administrative expense under
Section 503(b}(1} of the Code; (2) unsecured credit allowable under Sections 364(a) and 364(b)
of the Code; or (3) secured credit pursuant to Section 364(c) of the Code, on more favorable
terms and conditions from sources other than the Secured Lender. Accordingly, the Secured
Lender has agreed to fund the Debtors' continued operations in chapter 11 in exchange for the
reasonable protections proposed, including first-priority liens on all of the Debtors' assets.;
7
(iv) Good Faith Pursuant to Section 364(e). Any credit extended
under the terms of this Interim Order shall be deemed to have been extended in good faith by
Lender as that term is used in section 3 64( e) of the Bankruptcy Code.
( v) Budget. Borrower has prepared and delivered to Lender an initial
thirteen (13) week budget (the "Budget") (a copy of which is annexed to the Exhibit Supplement
as Exhibit "C"). The Budget has been thoroughly reviewed by Borrower and its management
and sets forth, among other things, in each case, commencing with the week ending as of March
19, 2010: (A) projected weekly cash receipts for each week; (B) projected weekly cash
disbursements for each week; and (C) projected weekly loan balances for each week. Lender is
relying upon the Debtors' compliance with the Budget in accordance with Section 5.3 of the
Ratification Agreement in determining to enter into the post-petition financing agreements
provided for herein.
(vi) Good Cause. The relief requested in the Motion is necessary,
essential, and appropriate and is in the best interests of and will benefit the Debtors, their
creditors, and their Estates as its implementation will, among other things, provide the Debtors
with the necessary liquidity (A) to minimize disruption to the Debtors' businesses and on-going
operations, (B) preserve and maximize the value of the Debtors' Estates for the benefit of all the
Debtors' creditors, and (C) avoid immediate and irreparable harm to the Debtors, their creditors,
their businesses, their employees, and their assets.
(vii) Immediate Entry. Sufficient cause exists for immediate entry of
this Order pursuant to Bankruptcy Rules 4001(c)(2). No party appearing in the Cases has filed
or made an objection to the relief sought in the Motion and the entry of this Order, or any
objections that were made (to the extent such objections have not been withdrawn) are hereby
overruled.
Based upon the foregoing, and after due consideration and good cause appearing
therefor;
8
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED, ADJUDGED AND DECREED, that:

authorized and empowered to immediately borrow and obtain Loans and to incur indebtedness
and obligations owing to Lender pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Interim Order and
the Existing Loan Agreement, as ratified and amended by the Ratification Agreement (as the
same has heretofore been or may hereafter be amended, modified, supplemented, restated,
extended or replaced, the "Loan Agreement"; as such term is more fully defined in the
Ratification Agreement) and the other Financing Agreements during the period commencing on
the date of this Interim Order through and including the date of the Final Hearing as set forth in

Order and the Loan Agreement for, inter alia, the payment of employee salaries, payroll, taxes,
and other general operating and working capital purposes in the ordinary course of Debtors'
businesses in accordance with the Financing Agreements, including amounts paid for such
purposes which may constitute administrative expense claims under the Bankruptcy Code
directly attributable to the operation of Debtors' businesses, expenditures authorized by final
order of the Court including, without limitation, professionals whose retention has been approved

delivered in connection with or related to the Loan Agreement and the Pre-Petition Financing

Petition Financing Agreements to which they are a party, and together with the Loan Agreement,
the Pre-Petition Financing Agreements, as ratified and amended by the Ratification Agreement,
and all other agreements, documents and instruments executed and/or delivered in connection

Agreements").
1.3 .2 Approval. The Debtors are authorized to perform under the
Financing Agreements (including, without limitation, the Loan Agreement) to implement the
terms and provisions of this Interim Order. All of such terms, conditions, and covenants shall be
sufficient and conclusive evidence of the borrowing arrangements by and among the Borrower
and Lender and of the Debtors' assumption and adoption of all of the terms, conditions, and
covenants of the Loan Agreement and the other Financing Agreements for all purposes,
including, without limitation, to the extent applicable, the payment of all Obligations (as defined
in the Loan Agreement) arising thereunder, including, without limitation, all principal, interest,
commissions, servicing fees, unused line fees, DIP facility fees, early termination fees, and other
10
fees and expenses, including, without limitation, all of Lender's attorneys' fees and legal
expenses, as more fully set forth in the Financing Agreements.
1.3 .3 Amendment. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Loan
Agreement and the other Financing Agreements, Lender and Debtors may amend, modify,
supplement, or waive any provision of the Financing Agreements (an "Amendment") without
further approval or order of the Court so long as (i) such Amendment is not material (for
purposes hereof, a "material" Amendment shall mean any Amendment that operates to add
and/or increase the amount of borrowings or associated fees/costs, increase the rate of interest
other than as currently provided in the Financing Agreements, increase the Maximum Credit (as
defined in the Ratification Agreement), add specific new events of default or enlarge the nature
and extent of default remedies available to Lender following an event of default, or otherwise
modify any terms and conditions in any Financing Agreements in a manner materially less
favorable to the Debtors or parties in interest, (ii) the Debtors provide prior written notice of the
Amendment (the "Amendment Notice") to (x) counsel to any official committee appointed in the
Cases under section 1102 of the Bankruptcy Code (collectively, the "Committee(s)"), or in the
event no such Committee is appointed at the time of such Amendment, the 20 Largest Unsecured
Creditors, and (y) the U.S. Trustee, and file the Amendment Notice with the Court, and (iii) no
objection to the Amendment is filed with the Court within two (2) business days from the later of
the date the Amendment Notice is served or the date the Amendment Notice is filed with the
Court in accordance with this section. Any material Amendment to the Financing Agreements
must be approved by the Court to be effective.
1.4 Payment of Pre-Petition Debt. The Debtors are authorized to pay Lender
on account of the Pre-Petition Obligations in accordance with the Financing Agreements and
sections 1. 5 and 1. 6 ofthis Interim Order.
1.5 Payments and Application of Payments. The Debtors are authorized and
directed to make all payments and transfers of Estate property to Lender as provided, permitted,
and/or required under the Loan Agreement and other Financing Agreements, which payments
11
and transfers, to the extent they are made on account of Post-Petition Obligations, shall not be
avoidable or recoverable from Lender under Sections 547, 548, 550, 553 or any other provision
of the Bankruptcy Code or any other claim, charge, assessment, or other liability, whether by
application of the Bankruptcy Code, other law, or otherwise. Lender shall apply the proceeds of
the Collateral or any other amounts or payments received by Lender in respect of the Obligations
in accordance with the Loan Agreement, the other Financing Agreements and this Interim Order,
including, without limitation, applying all payments, proceeds and other amounts first to the Pre-
Petition Obligations, until such Pre-Petition Obligations are paid in full, and then to the Post-
Petition Obligations. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Debtors are authorized
and directed, without further order of this Court, to pay or reimburse Lender for all reasonable
present and future costs and expenses, including, without limitation, all reasonable professional
fees and legal expenses, paid, or incurred by Lender in connection with the financing
transactions as provided in this Interim Order and the Financing Agreements provided that, with
respect to such professional fees and legal expenses, Lender shall submit copies of the relevant
invoices to counsel for the following entities: the Debtors, the Creditors' Committee and the
United States Trustee. Any disputes between the Lender and the aforementioned parties
regarding the payment of such invoices shall be resolved by this Court.
1.6 Continuation of Pre-Petition Procedures. All pre-petition practices and
procedures for the payment and collection of proceeds of the Collateral, the turnover of cash, and
delivery of property to Lender, and the funding pursuant to the Financing Agreements, including
the blocked account arrangements and any other similar lockbox and blocked depository bank
accounts arrangements may continue subject to further or other order of this Court.
Section 2. Postpetition Lien; Superpriority Administrative Claim Status.
2.1 Post-Petition Lien.
2.1.1 Lien Granting. To secure the prompt payment and performance of
any and all Obligations of Debtors to Lender of whatever kind or nature or description, absolute
or contingent, now existing or hereafter arising, including, without limitation, all Pre-Petition
12
Obligations and all Post-Petition Obligations (as defined in the Ratification Agreement)
(collectively, the "Obligations", as such term is more fully defined in the Ratification Agreement
and is incorporated herein by reference), Lender shall have and is hereby granted, effective as of
the Petition Date, valid and perfected first priority security interests and liens, superior to all
other liens, claims and/or security interests that any creditor of any Debtor's Estate may have
(but subject to the Permitted Encumbrances and certain claims entitled to priority as and to the
extent expressly provided in section 2.1.2 below), in and upon all of the Pre-Petition Collateral
and the Post-Petition Collateral (as each term is defined in the Ratification Agreement). The Pre-
Petition Collateral and the Post-Petition Collateral are collectively referred to herein as the
"Collateral". While Lender intends to seek a lien on and security interest in avoidance actions
under Chapter 5 of the Bankruptcy Code to secure the Loans and other Obligations advanced or
incurred after the Petition Date in the Permanent Financing Order, no such lien or security
interest is being granted by this Interim Order. In accordance with Sections 552(b) and 361 of
the Bankruptcy Code, the value, if any, in any of the Collateral, in excess of the amount of the
Obligations secured by such Collateral after satisfaction of the Post-Petition Obligations of
Debtors to Lender, shall constitute additional security for the repayment of the Pre-Petition
Obligations and adequate protection for the use by Debtors and the diminution in the value of the
Collateral existing on the Petition Date.
2.1.2 Lien Priority. The pre-petition and post-petition liens and security
interests of Lender granted under the Financing Agreements and this Interim Order in the
Collateral shall be and shall continue to be first and senior in priority to all other interests and
liens of every kind, nature and description, whether created consensually, by an order of the
Court, or otherwise, including, without limitation, liens or interests granted in favor of third
parties in conjunction with sections 363, 364, and/or any other sections of the Bankruptcy Code
or other applicable law; provided, however, that Lender's liens and security interests in the
Collateral shall be subject only to (i) the liens expressly permitted under Sections 8.4 and 9.8 of
the Loan Agreement (to the extent such liens are valid, perfected, enforceable and unavoidable);
13
and (ii) the Carve-Out Expenses (as defined herein) solely to the extent provided for in sections
2.3, 2.4 and 2.5 of this Interim Order (collectively, the "Permitted Liens and Claims").
2.1.3 Post-Petition Lien Perfection. This Interim Order shall be
sufficient and conclusive evidence of the priority, perfection, and validity of the Post-Petition
Liens, effective as of the Petition Date, without any further act and without regard to any other
federal, state, or local requirements or law requiring notice, filing, registration, recording, or
possession of the Collateral or other act to validate or perfect such security interest or lien
including without limitation, control agreements with other financial institutions holding a
blocked account, investment property control account or other depository account consisting of
Collateral (a "Perfection Act"). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Lender shall, in its sole
discretion, elect for any reason to file, record, or otherwise effectuate any Perfection Act, Lender
is authorized to perform such act and the Debtors are authorized to cooperate to the extent
necessary or required by Lender, and in such event, the subject filing or recording office is
authorized to accept, file, and/or record any document in regard to such act in accordance with
applicable law. Lender may choose to file, record, or present a certified copy of this Interim
Order in the same manner as a Perfection Act. Should Lender so choose and attempt to file,
record, or perform a Perfection Act, no defect or failure in connection with such attempt shall in
any way limit, waive, or alter the validity, enforceability, attachment, or perfection of the
Postpetition Lien by virtue of entry of this Interim Order.
2.2 Supeq>riority Administrative Expense. For all Post-Petition Obligations
now existing or hereafter arising pursuant to this Interim Order, the Financing Agreements or
otherwise, Lender is granted an allowed super-priority administrative claim pursuant to section
364(c)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code having priority in right of payment over any and all other
obligations, liabilities and indebtedness of Debtors, now in existence or hereafter incurred by
Debtors and over any and all administrative expenses or priority claims of the kind specified in,
or ordered pursuant to, inter alia, sections 105, 326, 328, 330, 331, 503(b), 507(a), 507(b),
364(c)(1) and/or 1114 of the Bankruptcy Code (the "Super-Priority Claim") provided, however,
14
the Super-Priority Claim shall be subject only to the Permitted Liens and Claims as and to the
extent expressly set forth in this Interim Order.
2.3 Carve-Out Expenses.
2.3 .1 Carve-Out Expenses. Upon the declaration by Lender of
the occurrence of an Event of Default (as defined herein), Lender's liens, claims and security
interests in the Collateral and its Super-Priority Claim shall be subject only to the right of
payment of the following expenses (the "Carve-Out Expenses"):

"!
Lender to any term or condition set forth in or acknowledged by the Financing Agreements or
this Interim Order and which results in the occurrence of an Event of Default under the
Financing Agreements and/or this Interim Order. The foregoing shall neither limit nor otherwise
affect the ability of an official committee to use funds allocated to the Professional Fee Carve-
Out for the purpose of investigating (but not prosecuting) the Lender's claim and/or claims and
causes of action against the Lender.
2.4 Carve-Out Reserve. At Lender's sole discretion, Lender may, at any time
and in any increment in accordance with the Loan Agreement, establish an Availability Reserve

fund or otherwise pay the Professional Fee Carve-Out and the other Carve-Out Expenses shall be
added to and made a part of the Obligations, secured by the Collateral, and entitle Lender to all
of the rights, claims, liens, priorities and protections under this Interim Order, the Financing
Agreements, the Bankruptcy Code, and/or applicable law. Payment of any Carve-Out Expenses,
whether by or on behalf of Lender, shall not be deemed to reduce the Obligations and shall not
be deemed to subordinate any Lender's liens and security interests in the Collateral or their

any other party. Except as otherwise provided herein with respect to the Professional Fee Carve--
Out and the other Carve-Out Expenses, Lender shall not be responsible for the direct payment or
reimbursement of any fees or disbursements of any Professionals incurred in connection with the
Cases under any chapter of the Bankruptcy Code, and nothing in sections 2.3, 2.4 or 2.5 of this

reimburse expenses of any Professional, or to ensure that the Debtors have sufficient funds to
pay such compensation or reimbursement.
2.6. Section 507(b) Priority. To the extent Lender's liens on and security
interests in the Collateral or any other form of adequate protection of the Lender's interests is
insufficient to pay indefeasibly in full all Obligations, Lender shall also have the priority in
payment afforded by section 507(b) to the extent of any such deficiency.

in this Interim Order and/or any Financing Agreement, including, without limitation, declaring
all Obligations immediately due and payable, accelerating the Obligations, ceasing to extend
Loans and/or make Letter of Credit Accommodations on behalf of Debtors, and, subject to
paragraph 3.4 below, setting off any Obligations with Collateral or proceeds in Lender's

obligation to lend or advance any additional funds to or on behalf of the Debtors, or provide any
other financial accommodations to the Debtors immediately upon or after the occurrence of an
18
Event of Default or an act, event, or condition that with the giving of notice or the passage of
time, or both, would constitute an Event of Default.
3.3 Expiration of Commitment. Upon the expiration of the Debtors' authority
to borrow and obtain other credit accommodations from Lender pursuant to the terms of this
Interim Order and the Financing Agreements (except if such authority shall be extended with the
prior written consent of Lender, which consent shall not be implied or construed from any other
action, inaction or acquiescence by Lender), unless an Event of Default set forth in section 3.2
above occurs sooner and the automatic stay has been lifted or modified pursuant to section 3.4 of
this Interim Order, all of the Obligations shall immediately become due and payable and the
Lender shall be automatically and completely relieved from the effect of any stay under section
3 62 of the Bankruptcy Code or any other restriction on the enforcement of its liens upon and
security interests in the Collateral or any other rights granted to Lender pursuant to the terms and
conditions of the Financing Agreements or this Interim Order, and subject to the provisions of
section 3.4, Lender may be authorized to take any and all actions and remedies provided to it in
this Interim Order, the Financing Agreements and/or applicable law to proceed against and

of the Bankruptcy Code and any other restriction imposed by an order of the Court or by law are
hereby modified and vacated without further notice, application, or order of the Court to the
extent necessary to permit Lender to perform any act authorized or permitted under or by virtue
of this Interim Order or the Financing Agreements, including, without limitation, (a) to
implement the post-petition financing arrangements authorized by this Interim Order and
pursuant to the terms of the Financing Agreements, (b) to take any act to create, validate,
evidence, attach, or perfect any lien, security interest, right or claim in the Collateral, and (c) to

Interim Order, the Financing Agreements and/or applicable law as it may deem appropriate in its
sole discretion to, among other things, proceed against and realize upon the Collateral and any
other assets and properties of any Debtors' Estates upon which Lender has been or may hereafter
be granted liens and security interests to obtain the full and indefeasible repayment of all
Obligations.

favor the aggregate principal amount of $16,700,000 (the "Term Loan Agreement"
and together with all other agreements, documents and instruments executed and/or delivered in
connection therewith, or incident to same the "Term Loan Documents"). Pursuant to the Term
Loan Documents, borrowings are secured by the Pre-Petition Collateral (as hereinafter defined).
4
(iii) Pre-Petition Obligations Amount. As of the Petition Date, the
aggregate amount of all Loans and other Pre-Petition Obligations (as defined in the Ratification
Agreement) owed by the Debtors to Secured Lender under and in connection with the Pre-
Petition Financing Agreements, consisting of Revolving Loans with a principal due in an amount

$10,693,240.81 plus all interest accruing thereon, and all fees, costs, expenses, and other charges
accrued, accruing, or chargeable with respect thereto totaling $18,995,353.01 (the "Pre-Petition
Obligations", as such term is more fully defined in the Ratification Agreement
1
), and that the
Pre-Petition Obligations constitute allowed, legal, valid, binding, enforceable and non-avoidable
obligations of the Debtors, and are not subject to any offset, defense, counterclaim, avoidance,
recharacterization or subordination pursuant to the Bankruptcy Code or any other applicable law,
and Debtors do not possess and shall not assert any claim, counterclaim, setoff or defense of any
kind, nature or description which would in any way affect the validity, enforceability and non-
avoidability of any ofthe Pre-Petition Obligations.
(iv) Pre-Petition Collateral. As of the Petition Date, the Pre-Petition
Obligations were fully secured pursuant to the Pre-Petition Financing Agreements by valid,
perfected, enforceable and non-avoidable first priority security interests and liens granted by the
Debtors to Lender upon all of the Collateral (as defined in the Existing Loan Agreement)
existing as of the Petition Date and all rents, issues, profits, proceeds, and products thereof (the

E. Findings Regarding the Postpetition Financing.
(i) Postpetition Financing. The Debtors have requested from Lender,
and Lender is willing to extend, certain loans, advances and other financial accommodations, as
more particularly described and on the terms and conditions set forth in this Order and the
Financing Agreements (as hereinafter defined);
(ii) Need for Post-Petition Financing. The Debtors do not have
sufficient available sources of working capital to operate their businesses in the ordinary course
of their businesses without the financing requested under the Motion. The Debtors' ability to
maintain business relationships with their vendors, suppliers, and customers, to pay their
employees, and to otherwise fund their operations, is essential to Debtors' continued viability.
The ability of the Debtors to obtain sufficient working capital and liquidity through the proposed
post-petition financing arrangements with Lender as set forth in this Order and the Financing
Agreements is vital to the preservation and maintenance of the going concern values of the
Debtors. Accordingly, the Debtors have an immediate need to obtain the post-petition financing
in order to permit, among other things, the orderly continuation of the operation of their
businesses, to minimize the disruption of their business operations, and to manage and preserve
the assets of their estates in order to maximize the recovery to all estate creditors;
(iii) No Credit Available on More Favorable Terms. The Debtors
believe that it would be futile, under the circumstances, to pursue alternative post-petition
financing in the form of: (1) unsecured credit allowable as an administrative expense under
Section 503(b)(1) of the Code; (2) unsecured credit allowable under Sections 364(a) and 364(b)
of the Code; or (3) secured credit pursuant to Section 364(c) of the Code, on more favorable
terms and conditions from sources other than the Secured Lender. Accordingly, the Secured
Lender has agreed to fund the Debtors' continued operations in chapter 11 in exchange for the
reasonable protections proposed, including first-priority liens on all of the Debtors' assets.;
(iv) Business Judgment and Good Faith Pursuant to Section 364(e).
The terms ef the Fiuaneiug Agreements and this Order are fair, just, and reasenable under the
7
eireumstanees, are ordinary ana appropriate for seeurea finaneing to debtors in possession,
refleet the Debtors' OJ<oreise of their prudent business judgment eonsistent with their fiaueiary
duties, ana are supported by reasonably equivalent value ana fair eonsiaeration. The terms ana
eonaitions of the Finaneing Agreements ana this Order have been negotiated in good faith ana at
arms' length by ana among the Debtors ana Lender, with all parties represented by eounsel. Any
credit extended under the terms of this Interim Order shall be deemed to have been extended in
good faith by Lender as that term is used in section 364(e) of the Bankruptcy Code.
(v) Budget. Borrower has prepared and delivered to Lender an initial
thirteen (13) week budget (the "Budget") (a copy of which is annexed to the Exhibit Supplement
as Exhibit "C"). The Budget has been thoroughly reviewed by Borrower and its management
and sets forth, among other things, in each case, commencing with the week ending as of March
19, 2010: (A) projected weekly cash receipts for each week; (B) projected weekly cash
disbursements for each week; and (C) projected weekly loan balances for each week. Lender is
relying upon the Debtors' compliance with the Budget in accordance with Section 5.3 of the
Ratification Agreement in determining to enter into the post-petition financing agreements
provided for herein.
(vi) Good Cause. The relief requested in the Motion is necessary,
essential, and appropriate and is in the best interests of and will benefit the Debtors, their
creditors, and their Estates as its implementation will, among other things, provide the Debtors
with the necessary liquidity (A) to minimize disruption to the Debtors' businesses and on-going
operations, (B) preserve and maximize the value of the Debtors' Estates for the benefit of all the
Debtors' creditors, and (C) avoid immediate and irreparable harm to the Debtors, their creditors,
their businesses, their employees, and their assets.
(vii) Immediate Entry. Sufficient cause exists for immediate entry of
this Order pursuant to Bankruptcy Rules 4001(c)(2). No party appearing in the Cases has filed
or made an objection to the relief sought in the Motion and the entry of this Order, or any
8
objections that were made (to the extent such objections have not been withdrawn) are hereby
overruled.
