As used herein, the “Termination Date” means the date that is the earliest of: (a) July 22, 2024, provided, that such date shall automatically be extended to August 1, 2024 if, on or before July 22, 2024, a Capital Raise (which shall only be accomplished through a private placement) generates Net Cash Proceeds equal to or greater than $1,500,000, and provided further that such date shall be automatically extended to August 15, 2024 if, on or before August 1, 2024, a Capital Raise generates additional Net Cash Proceeds equal to or greater than $2,000,000 (for a total of $3,500,000), and provided further that such date shall be automatically extended to August 29, 2024 if, on or before August 15, 2024, a Capital Raise generates additional Net Cash Proceeds equal to or greater than $2,000,000 (for a total of $5,500,000), and provided further that such date shall be automatically extended to September 15, 2024 if, on or before August 29, 2024, a Capital Raise generates additional Net Cash Proceeds equal to or greater than $2,000,000 (for a total of $7,500,000); (b) the date on which any Loan Party commences, or threatens in writing to commence, any litigation against the Agent or any Lender; (c) the date on which any Loan Party takes any action inconsistent with the Agent’s or any Lender’s interests in the Collateral; (d) the commencement of any Insolvency Proceeding by or against any Loan Party; (e) any amendment to the Loan Parties’ Operating Documents, or any Loan Party’s entry into any stockholders agreement or other Operating Document, which in any way amends or alters (other than such amendments or agreements as are required in order to give effect to the provisions of this Agreement and which shall be reasonably acceptable to the Agent) (A) the composition of the Loan Parties’ Governing Bodies, including providing any stockholder or other Person with any right to designate a director (except as may approved in writing by Agent in its sole discretion), (B) the relative voting rights of members of such Governing Bodies or stockholders, or (C) the terms of the Loan Parties’ governance, (f) Xxxx Xxxxxxxx LLP ceases, for any reason, to act as corporate counsel to the Loan Parties, (g) [reserved], or (h) the occurrence or existence of any Default or Event of Default hereunder or under any Loan Document, or any event or circumstance which, with notice or the passage of time, shall become an Event of Default (an “Unmatured Default”), other than the Existing Defaults.

(ii) Amendment to Section 11. Section 11 of the Cooperation Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:
Agreement to Cooperate. At all times from and after the date hereof:
(i) The Loan Parties shall fully cooperate with, and shall not impede, contest or otherwise interfere with the Agent, the Lenders and the Lender Professionals (as defined herein) in the exercise of Agent’s and Lenders’ rights and remedies under the Loan Documents, at law or in equity, including, but not limited to, an accelerated sale of the Collateral by the Lender Professionals, a foreclosure or sale process under Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code, a sale under section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code (as defined herein), the appointment of a receiver, trustee or other custodian over all or any portion of the Loan Parties’ assets (any of the foregoing, a “Sale Process”), or to sell and assign the Assigned Interest or engage in discussions or negotiations with any other Person with respect to such a sale and assignment of the Assigned Interest (a “Loan Sale”), and the retention of professionals, including, but not limited to, investment bankers (such professionals, collectively, the “Lender Professionals”) to assist with any such Sale Process or Loan Sale; provided, however, that the Lenders will not (A) commence any Insolvency Proceeding, (B) seek the appointment of a receiver, trustee or custodian or (C) consummate a transaction resulting from the Sale Process during the Cooperation Period (although this shall not in any way limit, prohibit or otherwise restrict the consummation of a Loan Sale during the Cooperation Period). The Loan Parties expressly acknowledge and agree not to contest Agent’s and the Lenders’ right and ability to credit bid in connection with any of the foregoing transactions, and expressly waive any defenses, rights, actions or other claims in connection therewith.
(ii) The Lender Professionals shall be tasked with facilitating, to the greatest extent permissible by law, any Sale Process or Loan Sale discussed in this Section 11, including, but not limited to, marketing the Loan Parties’ businesses and assets, and engaging with any third parties in the Agent’s and the Lender Professionals’ sole discretion with respect to the Sale Process or a Loan Sale. In the event of a Sale Process under section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code, the Lender Professionals shall provide the requisite information, declarations and testimony necessary for such process to be approved and completed.
(iii) The Loan Parties shall (i) provide access to their properties and systems (including remote access as may be requested) to the Lender Professionals as frequently as any Lender Professional reasonably determines to be appropriate in order to perform the agreed scope of work under any applicable engagement agreement or otherwise in connection with any Sale Process or Loan Sale and Agent’s and Lenders’ exercise of remedies; (ii) make the Loan Parties’ directors, officers, employees and advisors available for meetings and discussions with Agent, Lenders, the Lender Professionals and/or potential investors or purchasers at such times as shall be reasonably requested; (iii) permit the Lender Professionals to conduct monitoring and evaluations of the Loan Parties’ finances, financial condition, business and operations in order to perform the agreed scope of work; (iv) furnish information when reasonably requested and permit the Lender Professionals to inspect and obtain copies (including electronic data), as available, from the Loan Parties’ books and records; (v) provide all information necessary or requested to populate a data room or otherwise facilitate due diligence by potential investors and/or purchasers; and (vi) provide timely updates to Agent, the Lenders, and the Lender Professionals on any changes in the business or expected financial performance that could reasonably be expected to have a material effect on the affairs of the Loan Parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (1) provision to third-parties of information about the Company which is not publicly available by the Agent, the Lenders or the Lender Professionals shall be undertaken pursuant to a confidentiality agreement in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Company (the Company agrees that the form of confidentiality agreement attached to the Side Letter Agreement is reasonably acceptable), and (2) the Lender Professionals shall take reasonable efforts to inform counterparties that they have been engaged by the Agent and the Lenders, and not by the Company.
3
(iv) Budget. The Loan Parties (A) agree that the Lender Professionals will (to the extent requested by the Agent in its sole discretion) develop a budget for the Loan Parties to facilitate the Sale Process, which will be subject to Agent’s approval in form and substance, in the Agent’s sole discretion (the “Budget”), (B) shall implement and operate strictly within the Budget at all times, and (C) agree that any deviations or modifications to the Budget must be approved by the Agent in advance, in writing, in its sole discretion.
(v) Sale Process Plan. The Loan Parties shall implement and operate strictly within the plan developed by the Lender Professionals and approved by the Agent in its sole discretion in connection with the Sale Process, and shall do so strictly in accordance with the Budget (though nothing shall obligate the Agent or any Lender Professional to develop or approve any such plan). Such plan may include, among other things, the hiring of such personnel or managers identified by the Lender Professionals, the use of commercially reasonable efforts to liquidate the Collateral, and winding down operations.
(vi) Amendment to Schedule A. The definition of “Existing Defaults” under the Cooperation Agreement, as set forth on Schedule A to the Cooperation Agreement, is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as set forth on the Amended and Restated Schedule A attached hereto.
7. Subordinated Indebtedness. Agent and Lenders consent to the issuance of the note, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A, in the amount of $1.675 million, which note is and shall be Subordinated Indebtedness and Parent Subordinated Indebtedness for all purposes under the Loan Documents; provided, that the consent provided for herein shall continue only for so long as such new note remains Parent Subordinated Indebtedness.
8. Representations of Loan Parties and Significant Stakeholders. Each Loan Party and Significant Stakeholder represents and warrants to Agent and the Lenders as follows:
(i) Binding Effect of Documents. This Amendment has been duly authorized, executed, and delivered to Agent and the Lenders by such Loan Party or Significant Stakeholder, as applicable, and is enforceable with respect to such party in accordance with its terms and is in full force and effect.
(ii) No Conflict. The execution, delivery and performance of this Amendment by such Loan Party or Significant Stakeholder will not violate any requirement of Law or contractual obligation of such Loan Party or Significant Stakeholder and will not result in, or require, the creation or imposition of any lien on any of its properties or revenues.
9. Other Waivers; Reservation of Rights.
(i) Agent and Lenders have not waived, nor do they have any intention of waiving, any Events of Default or Unmatured Defaults which may be continuing on the Effective Date or any Events of Default which may occur after the Effective Date (whether the same or similar to the Existing Defaults or otherwise), and Agent and Lenders have not agreed to forbear with respect to any of its rights or remedies concerning any other Events of Default or Unmatured Defaults (other than, during the Cooperation Period, the Existing Defaults to the extent expressly set forth in the Cooperation Agreement), occurring at any time.
(ii) Agent and Lenders reserve the right, in their discretion, to exercise any or all of their respective rights and remedies under the Loan Documents as a result of any other Events of Default or Unmatured Defaults occurring at any time. Agent and Lenders have not waived any of such rights or remedies, and nothing in this Amendment, and no delay on Agent’s or any Lender’s part in exercising any such rights or remedies, should be construed as a waiver of any such rights or remedies.
4
(iii) In consideration of the agreements of Agent and Lenders contained herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, each Significant Stakeholder hereby agrees to waive, release and abstain from exercising any and all veto rights held by such Significant Stakeholder under the governing organizational documents of any Loan Party with respect to any transaction covered thereby or relevant thereto, including, but not limited to, a Capital Raise, a Sale Process or a sale and assignment of the Assigned Interest.
10. Conditions Precedent to Effectiveness of Agreement. The effectiveness of this Amendment shall be subject to the following conditions precedent:

(ii) All certifications, representations and warranties set forth in this Amendment shall be true and correct.
11. Payments. The Loan Parties covenant and agree as follows:

(ii) On or before August 9, 2024, the Loan Parties shall make a cash payment on the Term Loans in the total amount of $375,000 (the “Term Loan Payment,” and together with the Professional Fees Payments, the “August Payments”), to be applied in accordance with the Credit Agreement.
(iii) If the Loan Parties shall fail to timely remit the August Payments, in addition to being an Event of Default under the Cooperation Agreement and the Loan Documents, the Interest Rate shall immediately and automatically, without notice from Agent or further action by any party, be increased to eighteen percent (18%) per annum (prior to the application of any Default Rate or Protective Advance Rate), effective from and after May 16, 2024, and the Loans shall accrue at such increased Interest Rate at all times thereafter. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing herein shall alter any provisions of the Loan Documents relating to the Default Rate, including, but not limited to, the accrual of interest at the Default Rate.
12. Effective Agreement. Except as modified pursuant hereto, no changes or modifications to the Cooperation Agreement or any of the Loan Documents are intended or implied, and in all other respects the Cooperation Agreement and the Loan Documents hereby are ratified and confirmed by each of the Loan Parties and Significant Stakeholders as of the Effective Date.

17. Release.
(i) In consideration of the agreements of Agent and Lenders contained herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, each Loan Party, on behalf of itself and its past, present and future Subsidiaries, successors, assigns, managers, members, officers, directors, agents, employees, professionals and other representatives (the “Loan Party Releasing Parties,” and each, a “Loan Party Releasing Party”), and each Significant Stakeholder (as identified on the signature pages hereto), on behalf of itself and its past, present and future Subsidiaries, successors, assigns, managers, members, officers, directors, agents, employees, professionals and other representatives (the “Stockholder Releasing Parties,” and each, a “Stockholder Releasing Party,” and together with the Loan Party Releasing Parties, the “Releasing Parties,” and each, a “Releasing Party”), hereby absolutely, unconditionally, and irrevocably releases, remises, and forever discharges Agent and each Lender and each of their respective past, present and future stockholders, members, partners, managers, principals, affiliates, subsidiaries, divisions, predecessors, successors, assigns, directors, officers, attorneys, professionals, employees, agents, and other representatives (the “Released Parties,” and each, a “Released Party”) of and from all demands, actions, causes of action, suits, covenants, contracts, controversies, agreements, promises, sums of money, accounts, bills, reckonings, damages, and any and all other claims, counterclaims, defenses, rights of set off, demands, and liabilities whatsoever (each, individually, a “Claim,” and collectively, the “Claims”) of every kind and nature, known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, at law or in equity, fixed or contingent, joint and/or several, secured or unsecured, due or not due, primary or secondary, liquidated or unliquidated, contractual or tortious, direct, indirect or derivative, asserted or unasserted, foreseen or unforeseen, suspected or unsuspected, now existing, heretofore existing or which may heretofore accrue against any of the Released Parties, whether held in a personal or representative capacity, which any such Releasing Party may now or hereafter own, hold, have, or claim to have against any Released Party for, upon, or by reason of any circumstance, action, cause, omission, event or thing whatsoever which arises at any time on or prior to the Effective Date, including, without limitation, for or on account of, or in relation to, or in any way in connection with this Amendment, the Cooperation Agreement, the other Loan Documents, or transactions hereunder or thereunder.
