REVOLVING LOAN AGREEMENT

REVOLVING LOAN AGREEMENT, dated as of October 17, 2014, by and between ViSalus, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Borrower”), and Blyth, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Lender”).

The Borrower and the Lender, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, hereby agree as follows:

Article 1. The Loans

1.1 Certain Definitions. Certain capitalized terms used herein are defined in Appendix A attached hereto.

1.2 Revolving Credit Loans. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Loan Agreement and in reliance on the representations and warranties of the Borrower contained herein, the Lender agrees to make available to the Borrower from time to time, prior to the Revolving Credit Loan Termination Date, revolving credit loans (each a “Loan” or “Revolving Credit Loan” and collectively the “Loans” or “Revolving Credit Loans”) in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed, at any one time outstanding, the Revolving Credit Maximum Amount. In addition to any of its other rights hereunder, the Borrower, subject to such terms and conditions, may borrow, repay and reborrow the Revolving Credit Loans up to, at any one time outstanding, the Revolving Credit Maximum Amount.

1.3 The Note. The Loans, and the obligation of the Borrower to repay the Loans with interest, shall be evidenced by a revolving credit promissory note (such promissory note is hereinafter referred to as the “Note” which defined term shall also include such promissory note as it may be extended or otherwise amended, supplemented, or modified from time to time and also any notes (if any) given in extension, renewal, or substitution of such promissory note) in substantially the form of Exhibit A attached hereto.

1.4 Interest. The unpaid principal balance of the Revolving Credit Loans outstanding from time to time shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Revolving Credit Rate.

Anything contained in this Loan Agreement or the Note to the contrary notwithstanding, the Lender does not intend to charge and the Borrower shall not be required to pay interest or other charges in excess of the maximum rate permitted by Applicable Law. Any payments in excess of such maximum shall be refunded to Borrower or credited against principal.

1.5 Payment of Principal and Interest. The Borrower shall pay the then entire unpaid principal of all Revolving Credit Loans on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date. Accrued and unpaid interest on the Revolving Credit Loans shall be due and payable by the Borrower, in arrears, on each Revolving Credit Interest Payment Date. All payments of principal, interest and other amounts due (or otherwise made) hereunder or under the Note shall be made without any deductions whatsoever, including but not limited to any deduction for any set-off, recoupment, claim or counterclaim. All payments shall be made in United States Dollars and immediately available funds. Unless otherwise requested by the Lender, all payments by the Borrower shall be made by wire transfer pursuant to wire instructions provided by the Lender to the Borrower from time to time. If any payment under this Loan Agreement or under the Note shall be specified to be made upon a day which is not a Business Day, it shall be made on the next succeeding day which is a Business Day and such extension of time shall in such case be included in computing any interest in connection with such payment. The records of the Lender shall be prima facie evidence of the making of any Revolving Credit Loans, any accrued interest thereon and all principal and interest payments made in respect thereof; provided, that no failure of the Lender to timely record any transaction shall in any way affect or impair any liability or other obligation of the Borrower to the Lender. Any statement of account with respect to the Revolving Credit Loans sent by the Lender to the Borrower shall also serve as prima facie evidence of the information contained therein unless objected to in writing by the Borrower within sixty (60) days of the Borrower’s receipt of such statement.

1.6 Notice, Amount and Frequency of Borrowings. The Borrower shall (subject, in the case of the initial Revolving Credit Loan, to the provisions of Sections 3.1(c) and 3.2(b) below) give the Lender written notice of the amount and date of each Revolving Credit Loan requested under the Revolving Credit Facility no later than five (5) Business Days prior to the date of such proposed Loan. Such notice shall include (i) the proposed date of borrowing (which must be a Business Day), (ii) the bank account to which the proceeds of the proposed Revolving Credit Loan shall be funded (which shall be a domestic account of a United States bank), (iii) the amount of the proposed Revolving Credit Loan and (iv) a copy of the related notice of borrowing the Borrower is providing under the Other Revolving Credit Facility. The minimum amount of each Revolving Credit Loan shall be $500,000.00. The Borrower shall make no more than one borrowing of Revolving Credit Loans per calendar month. No failure to give any such notice shall impair the obligation of the Borrower to repay any Loan made by the Lender.

1.7 Optional Prepayments. (a) The Borrower may optionally prepay the principal of the Loans, in whole or, subject to the immediately succeeding sentence, in part, without penalty or premium. Optional prepayments of principal shall (i) be made no more than once per calendar month and (ii) in the case of partial prepayments, be in the minimum amount of $100,000. Anything contained in this Loan Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, no optional prepayment of the Revolving Credit Loans may be made unless the Borrower simultaneously makes a prepayment of the Other Revolving Credit Loans with the prepayment of the Revolving Credit Loans and the Other Revolving Credit Loans to be made pro-rata based on the then relative amounts (immediately prior to such prepayment) of (i) the outstanding principal of the Revolving Credit Loans and (ii) the outstanding principal of the Other Revolving Credit Loans.

(a) Amounts prepaid prior to the Revolving Credit Loan Termination Date on account of the Revolving Credit Loans may, subject to the terms and conditions of this Loan Agreement, be reborrowed prior to such Date.

1.8 Early Termination of Loan Commitment Under this Loan Agreement by the Borrower. The Borrower shall have the right to early terminate the revolving loan commitment of the Lender under this Loan Agreement upon five (5) Business Days prior written notice to the Lender provided that (i) simultaneously with such termination all amounts (including all principal, interest, costs and expenses) then outstanding under the Loan Agreement and the Note shall be paid in full and (ii) the revolving loan commitments under the Other Revolving Credit Facility shall also simultaneously be terminated and all amounts then outstanding under the Other Revolving Credit Facility shall also be simultaneously paid in full. After any such termination of the revolving loan commitment of the Lender under this Loan Agreement, the Borrower shall no longer have the right to borrow under this Loan Agreement.

case which is binding upon the Borrower (or any of its Subsidiaries) or to which it (or any of its Subsidiaries) or any of its (or their) properties is subject, or (iii) result in the creation of any Lien upon any property or assets of the Borrower (or any of its Subsidiaries) pursuant to any such Contract or any such judgment, decree or order.

No Governmental Approval is or will be required in connection with the execution, delivery and performance by the Borrower of this Loan Agreement or any other Financing Document or any borrowing hereunder.

2.6 Additional Representation. In the period from (and including) September 30, 2014 to (and including) the date hereof, neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries (i) made any Restricted Payment or (ii) took any action, or failed to take any action, which would have breached any of the covenants set forth in Article 4 or Sections 5.1 or 5.2 hereof (or would otherwise result in a Default or Event of Default hereunder) had this Loan Agreement become effective as of September 30, 2014.

Article 3. Conditions Precedent

3.1 Initial Revolving Credit Loan. The initial Revolving Credit Loan shall be subject (in addition to the conditions precedent set forth in Section 3.2 below) to the Borrower fulfilling the following conditions precedent:

(a) Delivery of Various Documents. The Lender shall have received each of the following, all of which shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Lender:

(i) copies or originals of each of the Financing Documents all of which shall have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the respective party or parties thereto and in full force and effect (in the event that a copy of a Financing Document(s) is delivered to the Lender, then the Borrower shall cause an

original of same to be delivered to the Lender (or Lender’s counsel) within two (2) Business Days after the date the initial Revolving Credit Loan is made).

(ii) the Obligor Legal Opinion.

(iii) current copies of the articles of incorporation and by-laws of the Borrower, as restated or amended to the date of the making of such initial Revolving Credit Loan, certified, with respect to the articles of incorporation, by the Nevada Secretary of State, and, with respect to the by-laws, by the Secretary or Assistant Secretary of the Borrower.

(iv) certified copies of all corporate (including stockholder, if required) action taken by the Borrower to authorize the borrowings hereunder and the execution, delivery and performance in accordance with their respective terms of this Loan Agreement, the Note, and any other Financing Document to which Borrower is a party, such resolutions to be certified by the secretary or assistant secretary of the Borrower as of the date of disbursement of such initial Revolving Credit Loan.

(v) a certificate of incumbency with respect to the officers of the Borrower authorized to execute and deliver this Loan Agreement, the Note, or any other Financing Document to which the Borrower is a party.

(vi) a current certificate of good standing for the Borrower from the Nevada Secretary of State.

(vii) the Permitted Holders shall, to the extent the Borrower has previously agreed to redeem or otherwise purchase or acquire Capital Stock of the Borrower held by such Permitted Holders waive in writing their right to so require the Borrower to so redeem or otherwise purchase or acquire if same would not be a permitted Restricted Payment under Section 5.3 below, and the Lender shall be provided a copy of same.

(b) Other Revolving Loan Agreement. Simultaneously with the execution and delivery of this Loan Agreement by the Borrower and the Lender, the Other Revolving Loan Agreement shall be executed and delivered by the Borrower and the Other Revolving Credit Lenders and the Borrower shall execute and deliver the promissory notes payable to the Other Revolving Credit Lenders. The Other Revolving Loan Agreement (and such promissory notes) shall provide for the Other Revolving Credit Facility in an aggregate revolving commitment amount equal to $6,000,000, have the same termination and maturity as the Revolving Credit Facility, the same interest rate as the Revolving Credit Facility and otherwise have substantially identical terms and conditions as this Loan Agreement and the Note.

(c) Payment in Full of Temporary Loan. The Temporary Loan shall be repaid (both unpaid principal and any accrued and unpaid interest) in full (the “Temporary Loan Repayment”), with the proceeds of the initial Revolving Credit Loan and the initial Other Revolving

Credit Loan first used (in accordance with the immediately succeeding sentence) to effect such repayment before any other use. Anything contained in this Loan Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, since the Temporary Loan has been made by the Lender to the Borrower, it is agreed that, the proceeds of the initial Revolving Credit Loan shall first be used towards the Temporary Loan Repayment before any other use; and that part of the initial Revolving Credit Loan used towards the Temporary Loan Repayment (or all of the initial Revolving Credit Loan if all of initial Revolving Credit Loan is used towards the Temporary Loan Repayment) may be made by the Lender making a book entry on the Lender’s books and records evidencing same and crediting such part (or all if applicable) towards the Temporary Loan Repayment.

3.2 All Revolving Credit Loans. The making of each Revolving Credit Loan (whether the initial Revolving Credit Loan or any subsequent Revolving Credit Loan) shall be subject to the following additional conditions precedent:

(a) Representations and Warranties True and Correct; No Event of Default. (i) All of the representations and warranties made or deemed to be made under this Loan Agreement or any other Financing Document shall be true and correct in all material respects (provided, that, in the case of any representations or warranties which contain a materiality or Material Adverse Effect qualifier, the condition precedent under this clause (i) shall be that all such representations and warranties are true and correct in all respects) at the time of the disbursement of the Revolving Credit Loan, with and without giving effect to the making of the Revolving Credit Loan and the application of the proceeds thereof, and (ii) no Event of Default or Default shall have occurred and be continuing at such time, with and without giving effect to the making of the such Loan and the application of the proceeds thereof. The Lender may, without waiving this condition, consider it fulfilled, and a representation and warranty by the Borrower to such effect shall be deemed made to the Lender by the Borrower, if no written notice to the contrary is received by the Lender from the Borrower prior to the making of such Loan.

(b) Notice of Borrowing. The Borrower has provided the notice of borrowing set forth in Section 1.6 above; provided, that, in the case of the initial Revolving Credit Loan such notice requirement shall be that such notice shall be given no later than noon (Eastern time) on the date which is one (1) Business Day prior to the date such initial Revolving Credit Loan is proposed to be made.

(c) Simultaneous Funding under the Other Revolving Credit Facility. The Other Revolving Credit Lenders shall, simultaneously with the funding of any Revolving Credit Loan, fund (under the Other Revolving Loan Agreement) Other Revolving Credit Loans. The respective amounts of the simultaneous Revolving Credit Loan and the Other Revolving Credit Loans shall be pro-rata in proportion to the respective amounts of the Revolving Credit Maximum Amount and the Other Revolving Credit Facility Commitment Amount (and the requests by the Borrower for the Revolving Credit Loans and Other Revolving Credit Loans shall be in such proportion). No Revolving Credit Loan or Other Revolving Credit Loans may be made unless there is simultaneous funding as provided for in this paragraph; provided, however, to the extent that, in connection with any requested borrowing, any Other Revolving Credit Loans are made but are made in an amount less than the amount requested by the Borrower (under the Other Revolving Loan

Agreement) with respect to such particular borrowing, a Revolving Credit Loan shall (assuming the conditions precedent for borrowings under this Loan Agreement and the Other Revolving Loan Agreement are satisfied by the Borrower) nonetheless be made by the Lender in a corresponding pro-rata amount (in other words, assuming the conditions precedent for such borrowings are satisfied by the Borrower but the Other Revolving Credit Lenders only, for example, fund 80% of the borrowing (under the Other Revolving Loan Agreement) requested by the Borrower of the Other Revolving Credit Lenders, then the Lender shall only be obligated to fund 80% of the Revolving Credit Loan from the Lender requested by the Borrower). The Lender may require that a funding procedure be used in order to confirm that the requirements of this paragraph are satisfied, including a funding call with the Borrower, the Lender and the Other Revolving Credit Lenders and/or having the applicable Revolving Credit Loan by the Lender and the applicable Revolving Credit Loans by the Other Revolving Credit Lenders first sent to a mutually agreed to Person who will pool the proceeds of all such loans and then fund same to the Borrower after the Lender and the Other Revolving Credit Lenders authorize the release of the pooled loan proceeds and/or confirmations of receipt by the Borrower of the applicable Revolving Credit Loan and Other Revolving Credit Loans.

Article 4. Affirmative Covenants

The Borrower covenants and agrees with the Lender that, until payment in full of the Revolving Credit Loans (both principal and interest), payment and performance by the Borrower of all of its other obligations under the Financing Documents (except for obligations consisting of contingent indemnification obligations for which no claim has been asserted) and the termination of the obligation of the Lender to make Revolving Credit Loans, the Borrower shall, and, in the case of Sections 4.1, 4.3, 4.4, 4.5, and 4.7 below, shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to:

to, result, individually or in the aggregate, in a Material Adverse Effect; and provided, further, that the provisions of this Section 4.1 shall not prohibit (i) a sale, transfer or conveyance of a Subsidiary or any of its assets in compliance with the terms of this Loan Agreement, or (ii) a merger or consolidation made in compliance with the terms of this Loan Agreement.

All such insurance shall be maintained with independent insurance companies which the Borrower in good faith believes are financially sound and reputable.
