The Agent, Xxxxxxx, and Xxxxxxxx, are each referred to herein as a “Party” and collectively as the “Parties”. This Agreement is an amendment to the Subordinated Business Loan Agreement dated as of October 01, 2024 entered into by and among the Parties (the “First Agreement”). The Parties intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows:

1. DEFINITIONS, ACCOUNTING AND OTHER TERMS

1.1 Capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings set forth in Section 13 to the extent defined therein. All other capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meaning given to such terms in the Code. Any accounting term used but not defined herein shall be construed in accordance with GAAP and all calculations shall be made in accordance with GAAP. The term “financial statements” shall include the accompanying notes and schedules thereto. Any section, subsection, schedule or exhibit references are to this Agreement unless otherwise specified.

2. LOANS AND TERMS OF PAYMENT

2.1 Promise to Pay. Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay each Lender the outstanding principal amount of the Term Loan advanced to Borrower by such Xxxxxx and accrued and unpaid interest thereon and any other amounts due hereunder as and when due in accordance with this Agreement.

2.2 Term Loans.

(a) Availability. The Lenders, relying upon each of the representations and warranties set out in this Agreement, as well as each of the representations, covenants and warranties set out in the other Loan Documents, hereby severally and not jointly agree with the Borrower that, subject to and upon the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Lenders have previously advanced a term loan to the Borrower under the First Agreement in the aggregate principal amount of $525,000.00 (the “Initial Term Loan”), by wiring the funds to the Borrower’s Account. After providing the Initial Term Loan under the First Agreement, the total amount owed by the Borrower to the Lenders stands at $648,000.00 (the “Outstanding Initial Term Loan Amount”). Under this Agreement, the Lenders will advance an additional term loan of $997,000.00 to the Borrower, resulting in a total aggregate loan of $1,415,740.00 (the “Second Term Loan”). Notwithstanding the above, the Parties agree that the Borrower will repay the entire Outstanding Initial Term Loan Amount from the proceeds of the Second Term Loan, as outlined in Section 5.9 below. To simplify the funds transfer, the Lenders will wire a total of $301,000.00, as specified in Exhibit B-5, to satisfy the above requirements. After Borrower has made twelve (12) weekly amortization payments to the Lenders pursuant to Section 2.2(b) (or paid to the Lenders an amount equivalent to such twelve (12) weekly amortization payments), the Lenders shall advance additional term loans to the Borrower, upon Xxxxxxxx’s written request, in the aggregate principal amount requested by the Borrower, by wiring funds to

the Borrower’s Account; provided, however, that the aggregate principal amount of such additional term loans shall not exceed $1,600,000.00 (the “Additional Term Loan” and together with the Second Term Loan and the Initial Term Loan, the “Term Loan”). Upon the making of any Additional Term Loan, Borrower and Lenders shall amend the Term Loan Amortization Schedule in Exhibit B-5 to provide for the repayment of the Additional Term Loans in equal installments over twenty-eight (28) weeks on the same economic terms as Second Term Loan and the Initial Term Loan.

(b) Repayment. Xxxxxxxx agrees to pay all amounts owing pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, including any financing charge, specified fees, interest and any other charges that may be assessed as provided in this Agreement or as documented in the Business Loan Agreement Supplement (the “Supplement”), if any, or the Subordinated Promissory Note (as defined below). The Term Loan shall be repaid by Borrower on the dates specified on Exhibit B-4 of this Agreement (each a “Scheduled Repayment Date”) by the amount set out opposite each Scheduled Repayment Date (each a “Scheduled Repayment Amount”) and in accordance with the Term Loan Amortization Schedule. If any payment on the Subordinated Promissory Note is due on a day which is not a Business Day, such payment shall be due on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall be taken into account in calculating the amount of interest payable under the Subordinated Promissory Note. All unpaid principal and accrued and unpaid interest with respect to the Term Loan is due and payable in full on the Maturity Date. The Term Loan may only be prepaid in accordance with Sections 2.2(c) and 2.2(d). Once repaid, no portion of the Term Loan may be reborrowed.

(c) Mandatory Prepayments. If an event described in Section 7.2 hereof occurs, or the Term Loan is accelerated following the occurrence of an Event of Default, Borrower shall immediately pay to Lenders, payable to each Lender in accordance with its respective Pro Rata Share, an amount equal to the sum of: (i) all outstanding principal of the Term Loans plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon accrued through the prepayment date, (ii) the Prepayment Fee (as defined in Section 2.2(d) below), plus (iii) all other Obligations that are due and payable, including, without limitation, interest at the Default Rate with respect to any past due amounts.

(d) Permissive Prepayments and Make-Whole Premium. Borrower shall have the right to make a full prepayment or partial prepayment of any or all of the Obligations in accordance with the prepayment amendment in Exhibit E of this Agreement. The foregoing notwithstanding, after 60 days following the funding of the Term Loan, upon the prepayment of any principal amount, Borrower shall be obligated to pay a make-whole premium payment on account of such principal so paid, which shall be equal to the aggregate and actual amount of interest (at the contract rate of interest) that would be paid through the Maturity Date (“Prepayment Fee”).

2.3 Payment of Interest on the Term Loans.

(a) Interest Rate. Xxxxxxxx agrees to pay in full the interest as set forth in the Supplement found in Exhibit B-5 of this Agreement. Interest shall accrue on the Term Loan commencing on, and including, the funding date of such Term Loan, and shall accrue on the principal amount outstanding under the Term Loan through and including the day on which the Term Loan is paid in full.

(b) Default Rate. Immediately upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Obligations shall accrue interest at a fixed per annum rate equal to the rate that is otherwise applicable thereto plus five percentage points (5.00%) (the “Default Rate”). Payment or acceptance of the increased interest rate provided in this Section 2.3(b) is not a permitted alternative to timely payment and shall not constitute a waiver of any Event of Default or otherwise prejudice or limit any rights or remedies of Agent.

(c) 360 Day Year. Interest shall be computed on the basis of a three hundred sixty (360) day year and the actual number of days elapsed.

(d) Debit of Accounts; Payments. All payments on the Subordinated Promissory Note shall be made via automated clearing house transfers of immediately available funds to be initiated by Lender in accordance with the authorization and direction of Borrower to Lead Lender provided in Exhibit B-6 of this Agreement.

(e) Usury Savings Clause. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents are subject to the express condition that at no time shall Borrower be required to pay interest on the principal balance of the Term Loan at a rate which could subject Lenders to either civil or criminal liability as a result of being in excess of the Maximum Legal Rate. If by the terms of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, Borrower is at any time required or obligated to pay interest on the principal balance due hereunder at a rate in excess of the Maximum Legal Rate, the Interest Rate or the Default Rate, as the case may be, shall be deemed to be immediately reduced to the Maximum Legal Rate and all previous payments in excess of the Maximum Legal Rate shall be deemed to have been payments in reduction of principal and not on account of the interest due hereunder. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to the Agent or Lenders for the use, forbearance, or detention of the sums due under the Loan, shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated, and spread throughout the full stated term of the Loan until payment in full.

2.4 Fees. Borrower shall pay to Agent and/or Lenders:

(a) Administrative Agent Fee. The Administrative Agent Fee of FORTY- EIGHT THOUSAND DOLLARS ($48,000.00), which shall be paid at closing out of proceeds of the Term Loan for the account of Agent.

2.5 Subordinated Promissory Notes. The Term Loan shall be evidenced by a Subordinated Promissory Note in the form attached as Exhibit D hereto (“Subordinated Promissory Note”) and shall be repayable as set forth in this Agreement.

3. CONDITIONS OF LOANS

3.1 Conditions Precedent to Term Loan. Each Lender’s obligation to make the Term Loan is subject to the condition precedent that each Lender shall consent to or shall have received, in form and substance satisfactory to each Lender, such documents, and completion of such other matters, as each Lender may reasonably deem necessary or appropriate.

4. CREATION OF SECURITY INTEREST

4.1 Grant of Security Interest. Effective only upon the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default Borrower hereby grants Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Lenders, to secure the payment and performance in full of all of the Obligations, a continuing security interest in, and pledges to Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Lenders, the Collateral, wherever located, whether now owned or hereafter acquired or arising, and all proceeds and products thereof.

If this Agreement is terminated, Agent’s Lien, if any, in the Collateral shall continue until the Obligations (other than inchoate indemnity obligations) are repaid in full in cash. Upon payment in full in cash of the Obligations (other

than inchoate indemnity obligations) and at such time as the Lenders’ obligation to extend the Term Loan has terminated, Agent shall, at the sole cost and expense of Borrower, release its Liens in the Collateral and all rights therein shall revert to Borrower.

4.2 Authorization to File Financing Statements. Borrower hereby authorizes Agent to file such financing statements and/or take any other action required to perfect Agent’s security interests in the Collateral, without notice to Borrower, with all appropriate jurisdictions to perfect Agent’s interest or rights in the Collateral and under the Loan Documents; provided, however, Agent shall be permitted to file a financing statement and/or take such other actions only upon the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default.

12.7 Survival. All covenants, representations and warranties made in this Agreement continue in full force and effect until this Agreement has terminated pursuant to its terms and all Obligations (other than inchoate indemnity obligations and any other obligations which, by their terms, are to survive the termination of this Agreement) have been satisfied. The obligation of Borrower in Section 12.2 to indemnify each Lender and Agent, as well as the confidentiality provisions in Section 12.8 below, shall survive until the statute of limitations with respect to such claim or cause of action shall have run.

12.8 Confidentiality. In handling any confidential information of Borrower, the Lenders and Agent shall exercise the same degree of care that it exercises for their own proprietary information, but disclosure of information may be made: (a) subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, to the Lenders’ and Agent’s Subsidiaries or Affiliates; (b) to prospective transferees (other than those identified in (a) above) or purchasers of any interest in the Term Loan (provided, however, the Lenders and Agent shall obtain such prospective transferee’s or purchaser’s agreement to the terms of this provision or to similar confidentiality terms); (c) as required by law, regulation, subpoena, or other order; (d) to Lenders’ or Agent’s regulators or as otherwise required in connection with an examination or audit; (e) as Agent reasonably considers appropriate in exercising remedies under the Loan Documents; and (f) to third party service providers of the Lenders and/or Agent so long as such service providers have executed a confidentiality agreement or have agreed to similar confidentiality terms with the Lenders and Agent with terms no less restrictive than those contained herein. Confidential information does not include information that either: (i) is in the public domain or in the Lenders’ and/or Agent’s possession when disclosed to the Lenders and/or Agent, or becomes part of the public domain after disclosure to the Lenders and/or Agent at no fault of the Lenders or the Agent; or (ii) is disclosed to the Lenders and/or Agent by a third party, if the Lenders and/or Agent does not know that the third party is prohibited from disclosing the information.

12.9 Right of Set Off.

12.10 Borrower Liability. Each Borrower may, acting singly, request credit extensions hereunder. Each Borrower hereby appoints the other as agent for the other for all purposes hereunder, including with respect to requesting credit extensions hereunder. Each Borrower hereunder shall be jointly and severally obligated to repay all credit extensions made hereunder, regardless of which Xxxxxxxx actually receives said credit extension, as if each Borrower hereunder directly received all credit extensions. Each Borrower waives (a) any suretyship defenses available to it under the Code or any other applicable law, and (b) any right to require Agent or any Lender to: (i) proceed against any Borrower or any other person; (ii) proceed against or exhaust any security; or (iii) pursue any other remedy. Agent and/or any Lender may exercise or not exercise any right or remedy it has against any Borrower or any security it holds (including the right to foreclose by judicial or non-judicial sale) without affecting any Borrower’s liability. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or other related document, until the Obligations (other than inchoate indemnity obligations) are paid in full, each Borrower irrevocably waives all rights that it may have at law or in equity (including, without limitation, any law subrogating Borrower to the rights of Agent and the Lenders under this Agreement) to seek contribution, indemnification or any other form of reimbursement from any other Borrower, or any other Person now or hereafter primarily or secondarily liable for any of the Obligations, for any payment made by Borrower with respect to the Obligations in connection with this Agreement or otherwise and all rights that it might have to benefit from, or to participate in, any security for the Obligations as a result of any payment made by Borrower with respect to the Obligations in connection with this Agreement or otherwise. Any agreement providing for indemnification, reimbursement or any other arrangement prohibited under this Section 12.10 shall be null and void. If any payment is made to a Borrower in contravention of this Section 12.10, such Borrower shall hold such payment in trust for Agent and the Lenders and such payment shall be promptly delivered to Agent for application to the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured.

12.11. Change of Law. If, due to any change in applicable law or regulations, or the interpretation thereof by any court of law or other governing body having jurisdiction subsequent to the date of this Agreement, the performance of any provision of this Agreement, the loans granted pursuant hereto or any transaction contemplated hereby shall become unlawful, impracticable or impossible, the Lender shall have the right, with the consent of the Borrower not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, to amend the terms hereof in good faith so as to comply with the then current laws, rules and/or regulations in the way that, in its reasonable judgment, best and most closely reflects the terms and conditions negotiated herein and intended hereby.

12.12. Subordination to Senior Indebtedness. In addition to the subordination and other provisions contained in any subordination or intercreditor agreement, Borrower, Agent and Xxxxxxx agree that the payment of all amounts payable hereunder and under the Subordinated Promissory Note are expressly subordinated in right of payment to the payment when due of all obligations under the Senior Indebtedness.
